Proof reading really is an art.
The end of a film needs to leave a lasting impression. It's our whole experience of the film boiled down into the last 10 minutes: the big reveal, the lasting poignant tone, the grand pay off for investing two hours of our time into staring at a little glowing screen - so it better be worthwhile.
With that in mind, it's scary to think of what we could have ended up with if a diligent scriptwriter hadn't caught some of these catastrophic endings before they ruined their respective films.
Now, obviously, scripts go through lots of stages of development before they make it to the big screen, but when you consider some of the missteps that have almost ruined films before, it's a wonder the scripts even made it past the first vetting stage. Clearly - and thankfully - the studios realised that there was enough quality up to the flash of idiocy to justify putting in a little more work.
Still, it's frightening to think that some of the most iconic movies in cinema almost sabotaged themselves at the final hurdle, beginning their lives with a draft detailing a disastrous third act that would have blockaded their entrance into cinematic Valhalla and rendered them trash...

Windy, the honey vendor at UN Plaza Farmer's Market is Eggman, from Turlock (they are there today). The pleasant lady manning (oops, personing) the booth this morning said that she or her uncle are usually at Alemany on Saturday. She also told me that there was another honey vendor (a Mr. Snyder or Schneider) who only does Alemany. Maybe he's your "honey guy."
Boy, do I wish I could see the bottom side of 40 once again!

DEERFIELD – Students from Deerfield High School launched their experiment to the International Space Station on August 14 after winning the Higher Orbits Go For Launch! Andromeda Division competition.
The students, Justin Bank, Chirag Goel, Dan Kambich, Zach Levy and Katherine Stecher, devised an experiment that would utilize a microgravity environment to test the effects of radiation on living cells in space. DHS was the only school in the Chicago area that was chosen.
Astronaut Dottie Metcalf-Lindenburger, who worked at NASA from 2004 to 2014, assisted the students at the inaugural event in Deerfield the summer of 2016.
"As a high school student, to say that you have something launching into space is a big deal," said Metcalf-Lindenburger. "The reason I like the Go For Launch! program is that kids start to realize that they can participate. The students are already thinking in the right way and now they can take college courses and do advance work."
Metcalf-Lindenburger explained that with the ultimate goal of getting to Mars, radiation is going to be a huge concern.
"If the students want to see if there's a lighter or less expensive way to get results of reducing radiation, which is a big problem that NASA is trying to solve and work with, it's a good question to answer and it's a very hard one," she said. "I thought it was neat seeing high school students trying to tackle that."
Metcalf-Lindenburger added, "They take the leap from being a teenager to seeing themselves as scientists and engineers. They're rocket scientists, so it's a very exciting program."
Project leader Bank explained that coming up with the idea for the experiment was a group effort that happened at the three-day Go For Launch! program at DHS last summer.
"There were 20 or 30 people there and five of us from DHS formed a group and brainstormed several ideas until we decided on one," he said.
Bank said that as project leader he served as liaison between the hardware provider Space Tango and the rest of the group.
"It also involved making decisions in terms of the actual timing of the experiment, and the materials that we're testing."
Bank will be a freshman at Oberlin College this fall, and he plans to major in geology. He attended the launch at Cape Canaveral with his parents.
"It's pretty exciting to see your team's idea launched up into the International Space Station," he said.
Goel said he got involved in Go For Launch! through DHS Assistant Principal Joseph Taylor, who also directed others to join the team.
"We're trying to see which materials out of the ones that we're testing are going to be the best in terms of blocking radiation on feasibility, their effectiveness and even how much they weigh," said Goel, who along with Bank represented the team in Cape Canaveral.
The DHS soon-to-be senior is considering studying finance or medicine in college.
"Even biomedical engineering is the most tightly linked to our project, because we're trying to find out how radiation has an effect on living biological cells," said Goel. "We're conducting that using different means of technology, which is where engineering comes in."
Goel explained that finance also plays a large role in the experiment.
"Taking one pound into space costs $1, 000, so you have to figure out how to combine all aspects of the experiment into one feasible goal, because you can't send lead up there, as it will cost a lot of money, so you have to be efficient with your money and think about future missions to Mars," he said.
Goel said the team will receive live data reports from the NASA website, and the space station itself will take 30 days of data.
"Astronauts and other scientists will be retrieving the data and looking at how the cells that we're testing will be effected by the radiation," he said. "We also worked with our engineering team, Space Tango, who made the cube that will be launched into space and will contain all of the material."
Goel's parents and his brother traveled to Florida with him.
"This is probably the most humbling experience of my life," he said. "I'm truly blown away."
Stecher, who is also entering his senior year at DHS, said she enjoyed meeting Metcalf-Lindenburger and looks up to any woman in STEM. Stecher's mom is a STEM teacher who always warned her about radiation.
"When you're thinking about space and an experiment you want to send up there, you want to do something that you can't do down here," she said. "I really wanted to focus on the possibility of the growth of cancer cells, because I've always been interested in cancer research and what causes mutations to occur more rapidly or slowly."
Stecher plans to study biology.
"I signed up for the program because of my interest in biology and now it's fulfilling a childhood dream of mine, so I will address it on my college applications," she said. Stecher is looking forward to seeing the results from the August 14 experiment.
Go For Launch! will return to the Chicagoland area at DHS, February 17-19. The program will be open to students from any school in grades eight to 12.
"It used to be that only career scientists could have their science done on the space station, thanks to evolution in the process, and working with Space Tango, we are extremely excited to be able to truly launch local students' dreams to space with the launch of the student experiment from Go For Launch! Deerfield," said Michelle Lucas, founder/president Higher Orbits.

As ever, there is some truth to both accounts. But the riot debate, which is certain to continue unabated even as the riots themselves die down, crystallizes starkly distinct visions of the future of British society. Pundits tend to decry polarization, but this is perhaps the one good thing that could emerge from this whole unhappy occasion: Britain needs healthy debate.
There is one important discussion point that did not appear on either list, however: "fun." Kicking a window in with your boot, flinging rocks at the police, and escaping with a PlayStation 3 is a blast if you're 18 and hanging about with other bored mates over the hot summer holiday. Violence is intoxicating, especially if you feel yourself a loser in the game of life and it is directed against those you believe have rigged the rules against you. More and more stories are emerging of bragging rights, of boastful escapades, of the revelry that was had by those involved. One smart rioter posted a picture on Facebook of himself grinning, in front of his looted treasure. "It was good fun … showing the police we can do what we want," said another, drinking wine at 9:30 in the morning.

Our call to Western Appliance Repair was answered by Rich. He was out the next day. He found the problem and ordered the needed part. He made an appointment to return and fix the unit.He called several days before his appointed date and told us that the new part was in, and asked if he could come out the next day to fix the unit.He came when he said he would be here and fixed the unit.

Western was awesome. I purchased a washer dryer set from Craigslist and knew that the dryer needed help, but two months afterwards, the washer stopped working. Rich came out and cleaned the filter and pump. We hoped that would take care of it, but two weeks later the pump failed. He came out again and replaced it, and he only charged for the part....not a second service call fee! Thank you!

Rich has been our Appliance guy for years! Unlike other repair companies, he can get me in quickly and has always been able to repair the same day! He gets the job done quickly and right. And he's also honest and lets us know when it's better to replace an appliance rather than fix it. Over the years he's repaired dishwashers, a freezer, and a washing machine for us. We highly recommend him!

Still livid over the treatment they have been getting from the Government over the years, several postal agents are considering protest action.
This time, the postal agents are angry that they have not received a one-off payment that they say was promised to them by the Government more than 10 months ago.
James Francis, president of the United Union of Jamaica, which represents more than 250 postal agents, says his members are tired of the empty promises made to them by government regarding improvements in salary and working conditions.
"It's about the entire working conditions and the lack of promotion ..., in addition to this payment which was promised to the workers from August of last year to offset the wage freeze," said Francis as he warned that the postal agents have reached the tipping point.
Francis said the one-off payment was agreed upon during meetings involving representatives of the postal agents, minister with responsibility for the public service Horace Dalley, minister with responsibility for the postal service Phillip Paulwell and Post Master General Michael Gentles.
According to Francis, since this meeting, the money has not been paid to the postal agents as state officials argue whether they are contractors or employees.
"They are saying that postal agents are not eligible for benefits because they are contractors but they do the same work as a postal clerk, and they follow the dictates of the post master general just like a postal clerk. They also give them one week vacation with pay so how can they say they deserve some benefits but not others," argued Francis
But Paulwell told our news team that the failure to make the payment was due to the tight fiscal conditions facing the country and not a signal that the State is unwilling to pay.
"That is not the case. We are in agreement that we want to do something for the postal agents, as they are in a difficult situation, but the post office really doesn't have the money, so I'm awaiting the final words from finance ministry and as soon as I get the go-ahead that the funds are available it will be paid," said Paulwell.
But that has not satisfied Francis.
"We have heard that many times before and our patience has been stretched thin. The minister has lost all credibility among the workers because how can he say the reason postal agents haven't been paid is because there is no money, yet, all other civil servants, including postal clerks, have received this money, that is ridiculous," charged Francis.

Principal accused of fixing failing grades behind teachers' backs
The principal of DeWitt Clinton HS, a struggling Bronx school in Mayor de Blasio's multimillion-dollar Renewal program, changed students' failing grades to passing without teachers' knowledge or consent, insiders told The Post.
In one case, Santiago Taveras gave a senior who received a "no show" in a global-history class a 75 and changed her failing 55 grade in gym to a minimum passing 65, records show. She then got a credit for each class, which she didn't deserve, several staffers charged.
"He thinks he's God and can do whatever he wants."
"He thinks he's God and can do whatever he wants," one said.
The office of the Special Commissioner of Investigation for city schools is probing the allegations, said spokeswoman Regina Romain. Taveras did not return a call or email seeking comment.
Taveras, 50, a former deputy chancellor in the city Department of Education who closed failing schools, left a private job to lead DeWitt Clinton in 2013, vowing to revive the once-great Kingsbridge school. Its many VIP alumni include playwright Neil Simon, writer James Baldwin and comedian Tracy Morgan.

Development of EST-microsatellites from the cycad Cycas rumphii, and their use in the recently endangered Cycas micronesica
- 191 Downloads
- Citations
We developed a set of 12 EST-microsatellite markers (EST-STRs) from Cycas rumphii Miq. and tested them on an ex situ collection of the endangered Cycas micronesica K.D. Hill. The number of alleles per locus in both species ranged from 1 to 15. Observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.000 to 0.842, and 0.000 to 0.883, respectively. All primers amplified in four additional Cycas species. These markers are the first genome-enabled tools for cycad population level studies, and are now available to inform conservation efforts and disentangle the biogeographic history of the genus.

And a minimalist summary of what to cover...
para 1 Intro: which of your projects are you going to write about? briefly describe it
para 2: what are some of the key features of the concept you are being asked to apply? maybe outline two of the theories/ideas of particular writers briefly
para 3; start to apply the concept, making close reference to your production to show how the concept is evident in it
para 4: try to show ways in which ideas work in relation to your production and also ways in which those ideas might not apply/could be challenged
para 5; conclusion
Again remember you only have 30 minutes and that you really need to analyse the finished production, rather than tell the marker how you made it

Corrected entry: Dorothy's friend Trudy comes to Miami for their high school reunion when there is no possible way for Dorothy to have gone to high school in Miami. It would have been in Brooklyn. In so many flashbacks she is way older than a college student, and they still live in NY.ChrisPreviti
Correction: There is no reason a reunion can't be out of town; schools often do multiple reunion activities in various locations. In this case, Florida is a very popular destination for Northeastern retirees, so there certainly could be enough high school alumni living in Florida to justify a reunion activity there. All an alum would have to do is organize one.
Corrected entry: In this episode Rose is telling the others that she was left on the doorstep of the Nylunds when she was a baby and adopted. However we know her married name not her maiden was Nylund and her maiden name was Lindstrom. She also says in this episode she was adopted as a baby but in the episode where she meets her father she says she was in an orphanage until she was 8.
Correction: That IS correct, Rose does give many variations to the details surrounding her adoption throughout different episodes within the series. In some, she is in an orphanage for quite some time before being taken in by her adoptive parents, the Lindstroms. However, she also talks about a scenario where her birth mother "Ingrid" dies in child birth, and she is then left on the Lindstrom's doorstep in a basket (and in comedic fashion, stating."with cheese and the beef sticks also 'cuz that was the deal) until she is discovered and then adopted by the family. THIS is the story she tells her father (the monk played by Don Ameche) in the hospital episode, and we know this because of the conversation following after where he tells Rose why he abandoned her mother for the monastery and knew nothing about her having been pregnant with his child (nor Rose's adoption circumstances) before he left.
Corrected entry: In this episode, Dorothy is said to have been born in a hospital. But in another episode Sophia says she was born on a card table at Sal's lodge.
Corrected entry: When Rose crosses to the refrigerator and reaches in for a jug of orange juice, she catches it on the door and the juice spills over her. She carries on regardless. (00:17:00)
Correction: Even if it was not scripted, this is a natural, every-day accident that can happen to everyone. It's not a mistake that it happens to a TV character, as they are supposed to be ordinary people, who may be prone to such mishaps occasionally.Twotall

We took note of the latest East Texas trailer-park brawl, mostly because it produced a classic mug shot of the woman who assaulted the cops who tried to break it up.
She was sporting a UCLA shirt, leading one commenter to ask where were woman like that when he went to UCLA and another to respond to him.

I have constantly stated that if I ever fall pregnant I would spend every waking moment hoping that I am gifted a boy. When I tell people this and they ask me why I feel so strongly, I jokingly tell them it was because I was a terrible teenager and I couldn't handle a little girl just like I was. This is only half true. The real truth to my desire lays in one simply fact; this is a mans world.
We live in a world where instead of teaching men not to objectify, we teach woman to not be objectified. These men (though I struggle to even classify them as such) who spew their remarks at a woman, probably think we are asking for it. They are paying us the highest compliment. For every woman wants to hear such eloquent words being spat at them, our hearts a flutter. They are doing us a favour.
I don't want my little girl to have to deal with this.
I want her to live in a world where she feels free, where she is more than two breasts in a tank top. I want her to work hard and be rewarded for it as much as any man would be. I want her to go out with men, without feeling like she owes them anything physically. I want her to wear what she wants to wear, and do what she wants to do. I don't want her to worry about being labelled a prude, I don't want her to live in fear of being called a slut, I just want her to be her. I want her to know her decisions are her own. I want her to be a boy.
I want her to be a boy so I can make sure he is a gentleman for someone else's little girl. So he can be that boy that the old ladies rave about. I want him to be one of those men. The men that seemed so hard to find amongst the cat calls, the men who offer a lady's father a firm hand shake and who promise to respect every inch of her mind, body and soul.
This idea has been so heavily on my heart recently due to the events that happened in Isla Vista. Elliot Rodger was a sick man, on many levels, with sick world views that may sadly fester within other boys all over this slightly twisted globe. That is distressing enough, but that is magnified 100% when you scroll through the comment section of any article on the topic.
Somehow, even though this man (again struggling with that word) slaughtered other human beings, it is still somehow the woman's fault.
"Maybe if woman weren't so shallow"
"It's kind of true though, If you aren't over 6 foot and hit the gym, woman don't pay you any attention."
It's littered with comments just like these. Comments from boys who grew up believing they are entitled to a woman's body, boys who I wouldn't want anywhere near my little girl.
Something needs to change...everything needs to change.

To truly understand the impact weight loss surgery can have on someone's life, you need to hear from someone who's gone through it. Meet Donnie Jeter, a 40-year-old plumber and construction project manager. He received a gastric sleeve from Dr. Dirk in October 2015, and he's since lost 102 pounds.
"Donnie is a great example of someone who listens to his doctor," Dr. Dirk Rodriguez says. "He saw his health and his obesity as a threat to his ability to provide for his children and watch them grow up. After surgery, he did everything he needed to do: he ate small, frequent meals, he went high-protein and low-carb, and he committed to daily aerobic exercise. The result is that he has his life back, he can fully enjoy his children and his job and he feels like he is on top of the world. Donnie's story proves that surgery is not a drastic measure—it's the solution to the medical condition of obesity."
We asked Donnie about his experience working with Dr. Dirk and learned more how weight loss surgery changed his life.
What was life for you before the procedure? Did you have any health issues?
Life was rough. I was constantly tired and depressed due to my weight and I had little self-confidence. I was borderline diabetic and struggled with high blood pressure. I worked out daily already, which was extremely hard due to my size.
What motivated you to get surgery?
My kids! I wanted to be there for them when they are older. I am a single dad and I've been raising them alone for last five years. Also, single life is hard when you weigh almost 400 pounds and you've lost your self-confidence! I've tried to lose weight with different diets for years and normally just gained weight. My ex-wife had success with gastric bypass 12 years ago, so I figured I would try!
How did Dr. Dirk help you throughout the process?
I was honestly very skeptical when I first walked in and met Dr. Dirk. His poise, confidence and straightforwardness blew me away and gave me confidence. He didn't sugarcoat anything. He told me what I had to do and what to expect. He was correct in every way!
How has your life changed since?
First, I can shop in normal clothing stores! That's a big deal for overweight people! I do an hour of cardio every single day and don't feel like I'm dying when I'm done. People notice me! I've started getting my confidence back and I'm not so shy. I can walk upstairs to my office and not be out of breath or feel my knees hurt.
How have you changed your diet and exercise?
I eat multiple times a day beyond the basic three meals, and instead of 45 minutes a day of weightlifting I now do that along with an hour of cardio each day.
Do you have different outlook on life? Is there a specific moment after the surgery when you knew your life was going to be different?
Yes, I do have a new outlook on life. Now, I live to be healthy and for the first time in my life, I take care of me first. Yes, the first week after surgery was painful, but then I went and bought a scale… I had lost 20 pounds in the first week. I teared up. I promised myself I would exceed any goal, I would put in all the time in the gym, I would follow every instruction from Dr. Dirk and I would be his best patient.
What has been the response from friends and family?
Uplifting and very supportive. They have cheered me every step of the way. My kids voluntarily follow my meal plans (small portions several times a day and no sugar!).
What would you tell someone else considering weight-loss surgery? Would you recommend Dr. Dirk and why?
Don't think about it, just do it! No one will live forever, and if you are overweight, you definitely won't live as long as you should! Dr. Dirk and his staff will give you the tools and knowledge to extend your life and make you healthier than ever!
What is your favorite thing to do now that you have lost weight and are living a healthier, happier life?
Play catch with my son. Wrestle around with my kids. Shop for clothes!

[PANN] 170123 +) BTS Suga-nim is f*cking incredible
wowㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm someone who likes listening to ordinary and quiet songs but I was on PANN while listening to Melon's Yearly Chart. Then I came across a PANN post that talked about BTS donating to Sewol Ferry victim families? I thought they were a really nice group
But somehow I got the chance to listen to Cypher 4 and I think the first and second rappers were Rap Monster and J Hope (am I right about the order..?) and the last seemed to Suga and omg... he has great pronunciation and his words just nailed in my ears ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ seriously I thought idol rappers just talked faster during their parts ((I'm not attacking anyone ㅜㅠㅠ I just had a wrong opinion...) I got to see the rappers in a new light..
+) wow my post became a selected talk! thanks! But can I listen to the mixtapes on Youtube? And some told me to move this post to Fantalk. I just wrote my opinion so why are you telling me to go elsewhere? ㅋㅋㅋ I just wrote this because he seemed really awesome ㅋㅋ

3. Thanks for the compliment! But I hope you could bring this to fantalk +81 -6
ㄴPeople write celebrity-related posts on Entertalk but why do people always complain and ask the OPs to move their post to fantalk? I dislike comments like this a lot;; just be confident and say "thanks" when someone praises your idol. No one's going to tell you guys you're humble even if you do leave comments like this. People who will curse at you guys will curse no matter what because they just dislike you so just ignore the haters and enjoy the compliments +8 -12
ㄴ I'm not the OP but there are too many people who curse at BTS although we still have people praising them as well +7 -3
ㄴwhy shouldn't people write celebrity posts on Entertalk? This is the place for celebrity-related posts and not a place made for people to slander them +3 -0
ㄴ The reason why ARMYs keep leaving comments like this is because too many haters come to leave malicious comments only under BTS related posts so they're just asking the OPs to come to fantalk board. We're not saying this without a good reason ㅠ we didn't ask them to delete the post... what we mean is "we'd be more grateful if you could visit us on our fantalk board in the future.." +2 -0
4. I'm a fan of another group and I f*cking fell in love with him after listening to Suga's First love... Guys, please listen to First Love... +47 -0
6. In that song Suga says, "How is it my fault that you're nowhere in life?" +36 -0
7. I just fell in love with rap after listening to Suga's ㅋㅋㅋ But the only rap songs I listen to are Cypher by BTS rapper line... +30 -0
8. I can prove I'm from another fandom and I really love Cypherㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I hope Suga, ARMY and BTS to really succeed! +25 -0
9. I loved Suga's part in their Cypher included in their recent album. I was really surprised by "Get back to the basic microphone check... it's been a while seen I last felt my ears being attacked. I really loved how they sounded so cool without sounding aggressive. I could feel the coolness by just listening to their track +24 -0
10. Many ARMYs recommended Cypher 3 so I just came back after listening to Cypher3 and it's f*cking good ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I didn't know idols could make such songs... that beats' my style ㅋㅋ +21 -0

Amstrad CPC, much better than I thought it would be!
I had a spectrum when I was a kid, a mate had a c64. I went from Spectrum to Amiga and the Amstrad CPC was never really on my radar. I can't ever remember knowing anyone who had one. Now out of interest in old stuff generally I bought a 6128 at a boot sale and I have to be honest i think its much better than my old spectrum and some of the games knock the socks off the C64. Its got the detail of the Spectrum with the colour of the C64 games but without the blocky graphics.
If you like me have never tried a CPC download an emulator and have a go I'm amazed how good it is!
Also try this remake of RTYPE for the 6128 its nothing short of amazing and really shows what the system can do! http://http://www.rtype.fr/Game_Features.html I'm currently using the real machine and an emulator called Ace on my Morphos Mac Mini.
When i was a kid I just assumed it was crap but to be honest I really think I missed out here!
I had an Amstrad CPC 464 and I loved it as much as my Amiga. It also was technically superior to its Spectrum and Commodore rivals as far as I remember and as you have found out.
Try Batman Forever demo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJosZfm560Q or Invasion of the Zombie Monsters http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gxdTcucw2o
Well the biggest problem of the CPC is that the Spectrum was mainstream and so software houses just ported Spectrum games. They were inferior for most of them because they used the mode 1 resolution aka 320x200 in 4 colors for a 256x192 play area. So the games were smaller and had less colors. Even if the Spectrum had clash attributes it has 8 colors + brigthness for them at 256 x 192 covering the TV (except borders).There is of course good games but very few IMHO. The best was for me Sorcery superior to the C64. Rick Dangerous was very good too.
Dizzy 1 Amstrad version had in game music while you played, however the other versions did not :)
Anyone any ideas how I get these awesome demos and new games from .dsk files onto a real cf2 disk? Would love to try these on the real hardware.
Tested on PC, Atari ST, Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Thomson, MSX, ZX Spectrum series computers.
Two floppy disk drives emulation
ST, MSA, ADF, ADZ, DMZ, CPC DSK (standard and extended)
CopyQM DSK, Oric DSK, IMG, SMC,MSX DSK, IMD, Zx Spectrum DSK,
yep :P
CPC was an OK machine, but definetly not superior to C64. The video ram was always 16k big and there were no smooth scroll registers. So to scroll you had to move the whole 16k of ram around and that was impossible. Some of the best games on CPC don't feature smooth scroll - like Gryzor, Prehistorik 2, ...
It did have 24 colours but they were even poorely chosen than the c64 ones... if the c64 looked to brown-greyish then the CPC looked way too brightly colored.
As kamelito already mentioned - most of the games were poor ZX spectrum ports which featured 4 colours. It was ok for isometric 3d games (Knight Lore, Batman, Head over heels) which had a few more colours on screen - but again - this was not done properly most of the times and looks strange.
In the end it meant that you were much better off owning ZX Spectrum or C64 back then... the games were just better on those machines.
Prehistorik II has smooth scroll is the most technical game but only on the CPC+. There is also Fluff, and a few others.
There have been some other great remakes :Rick Dangerous 128+
And if amstrad had gone for the 3.5" disks for the 6128 it would be even better.
some games with best graphics

Well, after watching most of these I am *really* glad I had a ZX Spectrum and a C64 later on and kept my hands off CPC ;-)
I had a Amstrad CPC 6128 (The disk drive one) back in the day but noticed a lack of games in my local software shops compared to the C64 and Spectrum... So I got a C64 and never looked back ;)
having experienced it back in the day, i can say that the Amstrad CPC was a very competent machine and had some aspects of it that were better than both the C64 and the Spectrum - its main competitors of the era.
the CPC never really got a hold of a significant share of the market, though, for some reason (i think that here in Portugal it had to do with the lack of an official release, though i'm not sure of this. they were very rare here). this meant that the games were very hard to come by and when they were available, they were more expensive than the C64 or Spectrum ones.
back in those days, i only saw a 464 once and, later, a GX4000 console and in both instances i enjoyed playing on them and came away convinced that they were superior to the Spectrum, the computer i owned. at the time, the Spectrum's bitter rival - the C64 - was viewed as being faster and with more colourful graphics and was considered, by most, to be the best of the 8bits, though some people preferred the MSX.
much later, already in the emulation age, i tried the CPC again and found that most games look, indeed, better than the Spectrum ones but they don't play better. most are slower or less responsive. maybe it's not the machine's direct fault and it happened because of the aforementioned Spectrum -> CPC conversions that more-often-than-not were lame or maybe it was due to the also mentioned lack of sprite control, but the CPC games don't "feel" as good as the Spectrum ones. the C64 had blockier graphics, yes, but the CPC ones weren't free from them at all. though less blocky than the C64 ones, they are much blockier than the Spectrum's.
all in all, i think the CPC falls short to both the Spectrum (gameplay champion of the 8bit) and the C64 (technical champion of the 8bit excluding the MSX2 and the consoles) but was a respectable gaming computer none-the-less.
Why on earth would you say that C64 games were BLOCKIER than CPC ones ? The C64 had basically two resolutions - 320x200 - which has the same dot pitch as the ZX Spectrum resolution and the 160x200 which has the same dot pitch as the CPC 160x200 one. So to say that C64 games were blockier is nonsense... if they used the same resolution then the blockiness would be the same.
Actually a lot of CPC games looks "blockier", e.g. look a the pixels in Gryzor. ZX Spectrum often use the hires monochrome mode, that why the games looks sharper but clearly not better.
well, it all boils down to personal opinion, perception and taste. for me, C64 games are more colourful, technically more impressive but blockier and less playable. are there emotions here at play? maybe. but these are MY feelings and i'll be damned if i let anyone try to mess with them... for me the majority of the really good Spectrum games were more playable than on any other 8bit computer. back in the original days i was a brat and i cared for graphics very much. naturally, the Spectrum lagged behind compared to the C64, MSX, CPC, etc... the graphics had less colours and were - many times - underwhelming. but now in the emulation age, and having tried every possible computer and console under emulation, i can say that the Spectrum games give me the most enjoyment of all the 8bit computers. the graphics are still admittedly shoddy but, maybe because of that, the gameplay usually was better. and the poor graphics also let much to the imagination. overall, the Spectrum has the best playability of the bunch. sure, there are gems and turkeys on all machines, but i was speaking in a general sense.
i think that the Spectrum vs C64 war is still waging around here... seriously? can't we let the old demons die and lay to rest? we're all Spectrum and C64 "owners" now-a-days. let's just enjoy the systems for what they were/are and not for what they meant to us. (except for the Amiga. the Amiga was, is and always will be king. this is a fact not open to discussion. period.) ;)
This site is pretty good if you want to read short reviews (with a screenshot) of many CPC games:
Today I would probably play the Amiga (or ST) version of a game first rather than the CPC version, but when I was younger I had much fun with games such as Prince of Persia, Rick Dangerous 2, North and South, Ikari Warriors, Gryzor, BAT, Defender of the Crown, Sim City (pretty playable with a joystick). Barbarian, Bumpy and probably others I don't remember right now.

I have been using a great new jib setup almost daily for 8 months now, and I am really impressed with how mobile and effective it is . To get the motion we need, I mount my Red Dragon or Alexa Mini camera on my MōVI M15 stabilizer, which is attached to the Carbon XL 7 jib crane. What is particularly interesting about this setup is that I can quickly swap between handheld MōVI mode and jib mode, and because I already have my camera package trimmed down to be incredibly light for handheld use, it is ideal for using with the jib. The jib is also carbon fiber, so it requires very little counter-weight. Even at full length, which is 18.5 feet, I only need about 80 lbs to counter balance the roughly 20 lb camera and MōVI setup.

At the 2012 NAB show, The Carbon XL 10 System received the Digital Video Black Diamond Best of Show Award.
The Digital Video Black Diamond Awards recognize outstanding achievement in the advancement of video technology.
Black Diamond Award nominations are made by an impartial jury of industry professionals. Final selections are determined by the editors of the Broadcast/Video division of NewBay Media. In selecting the Black Diamond Award winners, the editors must unanimously agree on the merits of the product or technology and on how it serves the Digital Video readership.
"Our teams searched the NAB show floor for products that were truly deserving of recognition," says NewBay Media Broadcast & Video Group Vice President & Group Publisher Eric Trabb. "Recognition with an award at NAB from the Broadcast & Video Group is a strong vote of confidence and admiration from this leading industry publication."
Jeff Victor of Digital video magazine made the presentation to Neal Williams of Carbon XL, and Jeff cited the significant engineering accomplishment of the Carbon XL design team.
Many visitors commented that the Carbon XL 10 System was the best product they saw at the show, and their first choice of all the crane-jib systems on display.

Beyonce's latest album and accompanying video, LEMONADE, has been causing quite the uproar in the music world, and rumors of the song's meaning has been hotly debated on celebrity gossip columns, but what hasn't been quite as publicized is highly regarded producer's involvement in song production. Diplo, known for his groundbreaking music and award-winning productions, helped Beyonce on her latest album.
Diplo holds many awards, including Grammy nominations for his tracks "Paper Planes," and "Look at Me Now," and Grammy Award-winning track, "Where Are U Now" (Collab with Skrillex and Justin Bieber). Diplo has produced tracks in collaboration with an astonishing number of artists such as Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Usher, Britney Spears, and more.
Diplo and Beyonce are no strangers to working together. Diplo has worked with the leading vocalist in 2011 for her hit album "4" for "Run The World (Girls)," so it's no surprise that they would work together again.
Diplo revealed his role in the production of Beyonce's surprise album via Instagram.
In addition to production on the tracks "All Night" and "Hold Up," Diplo even recorded background vocals which the production team kept in the final cut.

1915 Police Court
At the Borough Police Court today, before the Mayor, Mr CC Graham, in the chair, and Mr AJ Tugwell, James Simpson, 38, of 7, Lott's Yard, St Thomas Street, was charged with unlawfully wounding Louisa Lund on the 7th March, whilst Arthur Ernest Lund, 44, of 8, Lott's Yard, St Thomas Street, was charged with unlawfully wounding James Simpson on the same day.
Mrs Lund picked something up off the dressing table and threw it at Simpson
Simpson and the woman Lund both appeared in court with their heads in bandages.
Mr J Whitfield appeared for the defendant Simpson.
Louisa Lund had not been on friendly terms with the prisoner Simpson. On Sunday last a Mrs Juby, a neighbour, came into her house and asked her to go out with her. They went out together to the "Equestrian", a public house in St Thomas Street. Her husband at that time was in the house. She recognised the prisoner Simpson's voice in the next room at the public house.
When Simpson afterwards saw them he wanted Mrs Juby to treat him. They later saw Simpson at his house. He used some objectionable language, and did not want her there. He began to throw things about. He hit her on the head with a mug.
By Mr Whitfield: She had not been drinking heavily for the past four years.
By Mr Whitfield: She was not drunk on Saturday night.
In reply to Mr Whitfield witness said she was not disturbing the neighbours until three of four o'clock on the Saturday morning.
Mr Whitfield: It would be very unpleasant for Simpson, who lives next door to you. Did he not tell you on Sunday to go out and that he wished to have his home to himself?
Arthur Ernest Lund, the husband of the last witness, said his wife was addicted to drink. She was just about drunk on Saturday night, when he got home about twenty minutes to eleven. Both Mrs Juby and his wife were the worse for drink when they returned home on Sunday afternoon. Both the women went next door, and shortly afterwards Simpson returned. He heard Simpson tell someone they had better go out of the house. Witness then heard some pots being thrown. His wife came into his house with a head wound. She took up the poker and mumbled something. He took the poker from his wife.
Mrs Beatrice Juby denied that she and Mrs Lund were the worse for drink on Sunday afternoon. He ordered Mrs Lund out of his house, but she told him it was not his house. Mrs Lund picked something up off the dressing table and threw it at Simpson.
Dr Hutton, the police doctor, said the woman Lund had a wound on her head. She was drunk and incapable. Sergt Nalton said he found the woman in St Thomas Street, he took her to the police station, and afterwards arrested the prisoner Simpson. Mrs Lund's husband had hit him on the head with a poker.
Mrs Lund had been in his house, and thrown pots all over the place. He produced portions of a mug and a plate which he found in Simpson's house. Mrs Lund was drunk, Simpson was drunk, and Mr Lund was sober. At this stage the Court adjourned for lunch.

Lack of Sleep- How It Hurts You
Posted by allagingblog in Cancer, Death and Dying issues, Health, Research, Senior Older Adult and Elderly on September 27, 2017
We all know infants and teens need a lot of sleep, because their bodies are changing so rapidly. But, when we consider adults, and the elderly, we often don't associate sleep as something we "need". Some people are even proud- stating to others, that they only need "5 or 6" hours of sleep.
I recently read a fascinating article regarding our "catastrophic" lack of sleep, and that research shows that it is linked to a host of fatal diseases. A professor at Berkley states that sleep deprivation affects "every aspect of our biology". A lack of sleep has been "linked to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, obesity and poor mental health among other health problems". The article goes on to say that anything less than 7 hours of sleep is bad for our health. Many view the need for more sleep as a trait of being lazy. In short, the article states that a lack of sleep is killing us, and that we need to change our view of sleep and get more of it on a regular basis!

Aflao customs seizes vehicle loaded with 'wee'
Officials of the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority, (GRA) at Aflao on Friday intercepted a Kia van carrying four bags of dried leaves suspected to be Indian Hemp.
The driver of the van was said to be on the run after he abandoned the vehicle at Sepe Kofe.
Briefing journalists at Aflao yesterday, the Aflao sector Commander of the Customs Division of GRA, Ghana, Ms. Augustina Dede Quaye, said that on September 16, around 5.30pm, custom officials at the Preventive Mobile Unit (PMU) at Aflao Low-Cost near Sepe Kofe stopped the Kia van with only one registration number at the front.
The driver refused to stop and the officers chased the vehicle and the driver sensing danger abandoned it and escaped.
Ms. Quaye noted that a search in the vehicle by other security officers revealed four bags of leaves suspected to be Indian hemp stuffed in 206 slaps weighing 190.185 kilos.
She lamented that residents of the area prevented custom officers from arresting the suspects and indicated the driver has 30 days to claim the items and the vehicle otherwise it would be confiscated to the state.

Dressing room toilet running (for weeks!)
Here's the dressing room toilet behind the stage space at the Access. Stephen text messaged me with a report that it had been running (silent, solitary, alone), possibly for weeks. I took the tank lid off and noted that the flusher chain was unusually long and was dangling into the flusher valve, which prevented the Flapper from making a good seal. So water had been flowing from the inlet through the flusher without ever filling the tank completely. I shortened the chain by looping the free end back onto the flusher rod. Problem solved! Then I had the idea for this blog. Get ready for more excitement!

E-zekiel Tip: How to Rearrange Your Site Menu
Tuesday, January 09, 2007 Comments (0)
You may have noticed that pages are automatically ordered alphabetically in your site menu. But did you know you can change that order at any time? All you have to do is add some basic HTML code before the page name. Here's how:
When finished, before your page title you should have code that looks like this: <!-- a -->.
The code does not show on the page or the website, and the order only affects pages on the same hierarchical level. So, you can do this with each level of pages in your site without one level affecting the others.

Design Manager Expands Capabilities, Now Allows Personalized Designs
Monday, August 14, 2006 Comments (0)
All content management customers are not alike. Some are glad for the opportunity to choose from hundreds of ready-to-go professional Web site designs that they can use as is. Others are happy enough with a design template, but wish they had the option to tweak it for their own personal use. Still others are looking for the content management program that lets them create their own designs from scratch.
Thanks to the latest release from the developers of E-zekiel, all content management customers can now choose from all three options.
Improvements to the Design Manager, the E-zekiel tool that establishes the look for each site, include a new template personalization feature that will allow customers to create a design from scratch by making a series of selections that fit their content best. And, in the best tradition of content management platforms, they can create this design on their own without have to learn or write code.
E-zekiel customers have always been able to choose from hundreds of professional designs that they can use as is, and that option remains. Now the Design Manager will now allow customers to adapt any one of these designs with their own personalized touches.
The Improved Design Manager is included with all E-zekiel plans and can be accessed from the Control Panel once logged in.
E-zekiel Version 1 to Be Discontinued : Version 2.0 Takes Full Charge
Wednesday, May 24, 2006 Comments (0)
When E-zekiel Version 2.0 was released in August 2005, users soon found that the upgrades improved editing capabilities, made tasks easier and made file management more efficient. And that was only the beginning. But some still felt more comfortable with Version 1.0 and decided to wait it out to be sure all the 'bugs' had been worked out.
Since then, improvements in Version 2 continue, including the addition of a Search Engine Optimization feature, as well as the introduction of a Syndication Manager that enables E-zekiel users to generate blogs, podcasts and news feeds.
With each improvement to Version 2, however, the old and the new have become more and more incompatible. The previous version has now become obsolete, and, as a result, it will be discontinued effective July 17, 2006.
Discontinuing the option to use Version 1, which has been available through a Control Panel link, may be news that's greeted reluctantly by some of our long-time users. But, please know, if you experience any difficulty making this adjustment, our support staff stands ready to be of assistance in any way we can.
Morningview Baptist Distributes Sermons by Podcast
Monday, May 15, 2006 Comments (0)
Morningview Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, is one of many customers who have taken full advantage of the new podcast feature now being offered by E-zekiel. "I love the podcast concept, I have my iPod with me just about everywhere I go and have been waiting on pins and needles to offer this on our site," said David Hardgrave, Morningview's Minister for Music and Worship (and church Webmaster by default).
With the help of E-zekiel's new Syndication Manager, Morningview has been able to create an online pulpit that distributes sermons by podcast to subscribers – as soon as the sermons are posted on the site.
"There's nothing more important for us than to 'hold up' and 'hold out' the truth of God's Word," Hardgrave said. "It's the centerpiece of our life together as a church and the 'main ingredient' of every ministry that we have. We are especially excited about the new availability of podcasting and syndication technology because it helps us where it counts; that is, getting the life-changing truth of God's Word and the Gospel out to as many as will hear."
From their point of view, syndication isn't a fancy "extra," but a vital tool in pushing the right message to a vast audience.
"Over the last few years, there has been amazing growth in the number of people using Internet syndication," Hardgrave said. "It's where people are tuning in and that's were we want to be, holding out the hope that we have."

(Photo courtesy GOO)Chris Young thought he was celebrating a number one single and an appearance on the Grand Ole Opry, but he was shocked and surprised when Vince Gill asked him if he would like to be a member of the Opry in the midst of the show.Young and Gill shared the number one single, "Sober Saturday Night," and the singer says he couldn't have been more thrilled to be asked to join the Opry by his singing partner. "You pulled a good one on me," he told Gill after he pulled himself together enough to speak. "Well, do you want to be a member or not?" Gill asked again, to which Young replied a resounding "Yes!"Young will be inducted as a new Opry member on October 17, just three days before his new album, "Losing Sleep," is released. ⇐⇔⇒'SAMMY DAVIS JR. : I'VE GOTTA BE ME' PREMIERES IN TORONTO"Sammy Davis Jr.: I've Gotta Be Me" will premiered today at the Toronto Film Festival on Monday. The film explores in depth the life of one of the most iconic performers, Sammy Davis Jr. It shows the highs and lows in Davis's life in the first time his life has been documented in a feature film.The film covers the singer's musical talents, as well as his journey through the civil rights movement during the time he was in the spotlight. In a statement about the movie, it points out that, "He was the veteran of increasingly outdated show business traditions trying to stay relevant; he frequently found himself bracketed by the bigotry of white America and the distaste of black America. He was the most public black figure to embrace Judaism, thereby yoking his identity to another persecuted minority."The documentary is directed by Sam Pollard, who has worked on such documentaries as "Spike Lee Presents Mike Tyson," "When The Levees Broke" and "Two Trains Runnin'."⇐⇔⇒STRAIT PLANS HURRICANE HARVEY RELIEF CONCERT George Strait will host a Hurricane Harvey Relief Concert on Tuesday, September 12, at the Majestic Theatre in San Antonio, Texas.

The singer has welcomed careers in southern rock, country and gospel music, and found fans and friends in all of them. He talks about it all in "Never Look At The Empty Seats," all in a conversational voice that makes it seem he is actually there talking to the reader. It's a great book for those who love Daniels and his music, or just enjoy a good honest book about the music industry. ⇐⇔⇒ CRAIG MORGAN OPENS NEW STORE IN HOMETOWN OF DICKSON, TENNESSEE Craig Morgan is becoming an entrepreneur with his new store in Dickson, Tennessee, just a short drive southwest of Nashville.

The singer returns to his Texas cowboy roots, and is quick to say, "This generation of the human family is witnessing the emergence of their home as a desert planet. Two thirds of the Earth's land surface is grassland plain. Eighty percent of its soil is dying."Murphey contributes this to "the lack of grazing animals – cattle, sheep, buffalo, deer, elk, goats, even free-range chickens and pigs. We need vastly more split-hooved grazing animals to turn up the soil, to replicate the rotational grazing habits of wild hers to restore grasslands for the creatures and life-forms that thrive here. As we develop cities and urban sprawl, we run off animals that cannot be replaced by technology.
