Panama City Beach Off the Beaten Path
The food was so so. a buffet but not great choices .When they told us the price of the buffet we started to leave. They suddenly remembered they had a special for seniors,
We had dinner here due to having crab legs on the buffet. The selection of seafood items was limited. There are plenty of options of veggies and other items just disappointed in the number of actual seafood items. The cost was around $40 per person so it's unlikely we will return. This isn't to say it isn't good, there just...
Supper is about $40 per person. yes they have crab legs however the food is just so so. very disappointed. for same amount or less you can find alot better. panama city has a wealth of good eating places but this is not one of them. .
We went at lunch time in October and there were not many people. The buffet bar had a lot of items ranging from salad to hot food items to fried and baked fish and seafood. They also had a good variety of desserts. It was not my favorite restaurant but it for sure gave a lot of options to choose...
Server was kind and attentive. They did have a decent amount of choices on the buffet and were prompt at restocking when items were low. The price did include all you can eat crab legs, they just weren't that good. Most everything was mediocre. For $35 per person I expected a little more. The only thing that stood out in...
We were excited to see that panama city had a all you can eat seafood buffet , when we arrived we were greeted nicely and explained the price and seated. The buffet is behind a wall and now i know why, It was not anymore choices than you can get at chinese buffet for 12.00 rather than the 34.95 that...
Went to Capt jacks for a birthday celebration and can't say enough how great the food is! 34 dollars for dinner gets you all the food you can hold. The seafood was so fresh, the oysters tasty and well cooked the crab legs Amazing! The shrimp delicious. And the crab salad and deviled crab made with real crab meat a...
Jason worked the tables not his mouth. Very attentive and provided service with precise anticipation. No hurry up leave bill.
This place is worth every penny, you will not leave disappointed or hungry. Idk what those other reviewers are used to but this place better than some of the buffets that I went to in Vegas. The seafood is fresh and succulent. The seafood gumbo was worthy, and I'm picky about my gumbo. There was no additional cost for the...
For the price, the food was horrible. We go to an all you can eat buffet at my home town that charges less than half the price per plate and get better quality food. I've been to high end restaurants that charge less than this for Sunday brunch and got high quality food. Don't expect that here. Expect low end...

A police spokesperson told Israel Radio that there was "little doubt" at this point that the incident Sunday morning, in the Hatikvah neighborhood of Tel Aviv, was a terror attack. One person was killed and 13 were injured in the attack. Two of them are in serious condition. The truck hit pedestrians and parked cars on the sidewalk of Bar Lev Street in the area over a distance of two kilometers, police said.

Great food and huge wine list
I've been there for both dinner and a wedding reception and both times were great. The wine list is huge and the food is tasty to say the least. The ambiance is very classy and the guests and upscale so don't wear jeans.

Can I keep Bamboo, cherry and ghost shrimp with mystery and several other snails in the same tank?
Here is a web site I found that in good for shrimp compatibility:
Dwarf Shrimp Compatibility Chart - Freshwater Shrimp - TheShrimpFarm.com
Certain snails will not get along. Assassin snails will eat other snails and even the bigger Mystery snails but perfer the easier ones without a trapdoor. Assassin snails sometimes eat dwarf shrimps, Ghost shrimps will eat other dwarf shrimps like the compatibility chart says.

Franklin couple's pain lingers year after flood
Dan Pollman and his wife felt a rumble. Then their entire house was lifted off its foundation.
A wall of their Franklin home had collapsed, and 8 feet of water rushed into their basement, damaging the home beyond repair when a 100-year-flood struck in June 2008.
After more than a year of trying to recover financially from the disaster, the Pollmans said they felt as though they've been ignored by government agencies and left out of relief funding.
To make matters worse, the Pollmans now know that their home and everything in it could have been paid for if they had bought a $300-per year insurance policy.
Hundreds of thousands of other Wisconsin homeowners could be in the same situation.
The Pollmans' home sat in a low-risk flood area that has just a 0.2% chance of flooding, according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Fewer than 15,000 Wisconsin homes are insured for a flood, said David Scheim, FEMA regional flood insurance liaison.
Standard homeowners insurance will cover a tornado or other natural disaster, but not a flood.
The Pollmans' house had the most damage of any home in Franklin, city officials said. In all, 173 homeowners in Franklin applied for federal assistance. They received $252,463.
The Pollmans got $23,000 from FEMA, but they said their damage totaled more than $300,000.
Family heirlooms such as their antique china set are buried under muck and debris in the basement of their 53-year-old home. The Pollmans have spent the past year trying to get money for the damaged home.
The couple have contacted city, county, state and federal agencies.
"Everyone says they want to help but can't," Dan Pollman said. "It's been a very frustrating year."
Disaster designation
When an area floods, the state must first declare it a disaster area so FEMA may assess the damage before offering federal assistance.
Just days after the June 2008 storm, Milwaukee County, and 30 other counties in Wisconsin, received the important disaster-area designation.
The state relief funds largely were doled out to hardest-hit areas in Columbia County.
Pollman said he couldn't comprehend how homes in Wisconsin Dells and other severely hit areas were completely covered by the relief funds, but his family could not receive any aid in Franklin.
The Pollmans turned to Sen. Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) for help in getting state funding as they watched the state transportation fund purchase vacation homes on Lake Delton.
Lazich said the governor's office told her that nothing could be done.
"It was horribly unfair," Lazich said. "Lake Delton is getting all this treatment with their homes. That's a question the governor has to answer: Why not help the Pollmans?"
Gov. Jim Doyle announced in September that the state still needed $1.22 billion to cover flood damage for housing, businesses and infrastructure.
As of June, the state had received about $124 million from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
"Obviously, we're concerned with all the people hit hard with the flooding," said Doyle's spokesman, Lee Sensenbrenner. "The governor has worked hard to get federal and state aid to people affected to the floods."
Not in floodplain
Another possible route for homeowners is to have the city or state buy their damaged homes. Agencies pay to demolish the home and zone the land so future developers can't build there (because the land is deemed a high-risk area).
The Pollmans missed out on this, too.
For the lengthy process to begin, the city must flag the house as eligible. Franklin has not done this because the home did not sit in a floodplain.
The nearest high-risk area is nearly 2 miles from the Pollmans' home, according to FEMA maps. Had the home been situated there and flooded, the city or state would have been more likely to buy it.
Mark Luberda, Franklin director of administration, said that because the house was not in a floodplain and had never flooded in the past, the city would not buy it.
"We're not in the position to act like an insurance company for all natural disasters," Luberda said. "It's a very unfortunate flood event, but to suggest that the city is at fault for it is a little misleading."
Pollman said that although he's never had a problem in the past, he suspected new development in the area has pushed water toward his land.
He also said there was obviously a drainage problem because crews dug ditches and serviced the drains in his neighborhood immediately after the storm.
Ron Romeis, assistant city engineer, said the city has an extensive storm-water management plan to avoid flooding.
$119 per year
The Pollmans' home in the low-risk area could have been partly covered for only $119 per year, according to FEMA.
Robert Schroeder, an agent for Farmers Insurance in Hales Corners, said few people buy the insurance package if they live in a low-flood-risk area because they don't think they need it.
According to FEMA, only about 44 Franklin homes are covered by a flood policy, producing just nine claims in 30 years.
Vicki Kipfmueller, a State Farm agent in Franklin, said she offered flood coverage but rarely sold it. She estimated that only about 10% to 15% of her customers enroll. Even after the extensive flooding last year, she said, most people chose not to take part in the national program.
Pollman said that had he known how affordable the insurance was, he would have avoided the financial storm that has left him in ruins.

This application details the collaborative, leadership role of the Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) Statistical and Data Center (SDC) in determining the GOG research agenda and accomplishing its mission of promoting excellence in the quality and integrity of clinical and basic scientific research in the field of Gynecologic malignancies. The SDC is comprised of four Divisions (Biostatistics and Science, Information Technology, Data Management, and Administration) and features unparalleled experience in clinical trials investigating gynecologic malignancies. Its members participate in every aspect of Group activities and are inherently involved in GOG Leadership. Specific responsibilities are governed by comprehensive SOPs and embrace all aspects of Group research, including concept development, study design, protocol conduct, data acquisition and quality control, analysis, and publication of results. This grant period has been highlighted by exciting, innovative advances. The SDC has entered into collaboration with the University at Buffalo, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, and the New York State Center of Excellence. This has provided an academic setting for the SDC, and greatly enhanced its scientific expertise with the infusion of faculty with diverse talents. Technologic advances have revolutionized GOG data management with the development and refinement of electronic data submission and specimen tracking.

I think this map looks alright, but it's pretty hard to get excited at all over a map pack that contains 3 large maps. The only thing this has going for it, is that it's made by Certain Affinity. The Crimson map pack was not made by Certain Affinity, and those maps were pretty sub par, while the majestic map pack was made by certain affinity, and they were excellent. So even though they're all big maps, I'm at the very least happy that Certain Affinity is making them.

CALLING OUT HATERS: 11 Most Anticipated Movies of Summer 2016 (SPOILERS)
How some fanboys are likely going to react at a certain inclusion.
Next week the Summer movie season is upon us, and of the large output of films major studios put out I have 11 that I am anticipating more than others. Keep in mind, this doesn't mean I think these movies will be good (I had Prometheus as my #2 back in 2012 and that movie sucked), but merely movies I am really interested in how they turn out.
Honorable Mentions:
-Popstar: Never Stop Stopping: Does look like it could be amusing, so it's on my radar, and Andy Sanberg can be funny with the right material. I hope this isn't as drawn out of a mock musical biopic like Walk Hard was.
-Sausage Party: Interesting for the novelty of a mainstream R-rated animated film. I will be quite amused when parents take their kids to the movie thinking this is more childhood fare. Come on the Hot Dogs and buns are made to resemble genitalia... tell me in what way is that is kid friendly.
11. Suicide Squad
Now I know what you're thinking, after the trashing I gave Batman v Superman, what hope do I have for this film? Well for one it looks like it actually is having a blast with it's premise rather than miring it in angst, sorrow and more angst. Another is that it looks like it has a rich diverse cast that actually look to have fun including: Will Smith, Jared Leto, Viola Davis, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Mr. Eko as Killer Croc? I'm in), and Margot Robbie looking like she'll steal the show as Harley Quinn. It's also under the direction of David Ayer whose break-out film End of Watch I feel is underrated (Have yet to see Fury though and have NO interest in Sabotage).
Now that doesn't mean I don't have reservations as part of the film seems to try to be the next Guardians of the Galaxy: August release date, editing trailers to classic pop and rock hits, and an ensemble of misfit characters who have to save the world. I also feel like there are certain moments in the trailers involving the possible origin of Harley and her relation to the Joker that look possibly problematic. As well the light-hearted tone of the trailers might just be a lie, and we might end up with something as emotionally cold as Snyder's DC films especially since the rumors of "light-hearted reshoots" has been shot down.
But I am interested enough to see where this film will go, whether or not it will be the third time a charm for this DC Cinematic Universe.
10. Star Trek Beyond
I don't know if I need to explain why this is so low on the list, but I'll try anyway. Star Trek Into Darkness was really a sore point in not only being a disappointing follow-up to the 2009 Trek reboot, but a real big sore spot in the franchise in general. What could have been an interesting idea of conflicting Federation ideologies, was a 9/11 Truther Fan Fiction with Star Trek as it's setting with The Wrath of Khan slapped in. Not to mention the film decides to focus more on big action scenes, than actually settling down and discussing any of the concepts that it sets up. The moment Spock screams "Khaaaaaaaaaaaaan!" is a moment that will go down in history as one of the most misguided attempts at cashing in on nostalgia in any film.
Having said that Star Trek Beyond looks like it takes some steps in the right direction. We have the Enterprise crew stranded on a strange new world and getting into a conflict with some of it's inhabitants. It's also in fact being co-written by Scotty himself Simon Pegg who is a well-known fan of the franchise, so I hope he knows how to write a good Trek story at least even though it seems he has three other credited writers as well including 9/11 truther Roberto Orci *groans*. Also has some fresh blood behind the camera, Justin Lin director of 4 of the 7 Fast & Furious Movies, whose reputation as a films series actually got better as each film came. And hey Idris Elba is playing the villain, he makes a lot of things cool.
I will say part of me is really cautious as of course a Star Trek trailer that decides to set itself to "Sabotage" by the Beastie Boys can do that. I know it was established with the 2009 film, but boy does it really feel very inappropriate to hype a Star Trek movie. I also feel that while it does look like it's being more in tune with Trek, there still looks an abundance of action that may take precedence over any sort of discussion of themes of the franchise. Then there's Sofia Boutella's character a kick-ass alien female who I dread is going to be Kirk's "Girl of the movie."
But still Into Darkness didn't quite kill every ounce of hype I had for this movie, so hopefully it will make me move beyond Into Darkness (See what I did there) and have some hope for this new series yet.
9. Warcraft
Just to get something out of the way, I never played a Warcraft game. Never played any of the Real-Time Strategy games nor played a session of the now over 11-year-old MMORPG. So my hype going into this film is basically not knowing a damn thing about Blizzard's biggest money-maker.
But damn does it look epic. Clashing armies of humans, orcs and other folks, people riding on birds, it looks like a fantasy buffet. Then there is fact that it doesn't try to make a tale of just humans trying to fend off against the orcs we're actually seeing things from the orcs perspective and some of whom actually have to form an alliance to fight off against a threat. The movie is also going to be directed by Duncan Jones, who made a little known film named Moon and the surprisingly really good time jumping science fiction movie Source Code, it's going to be interesting to see how he'll tackle his first major-budget blockbuster.
Though I got to say, as cool and as epic as the film seems, it does have a bit of a problem. The film is meant to be a live-action fantasy, but the designs of the orcs are trying to be very close to the video games which have very exaggerated proportions that do not lend themselves to live-action. The fact they use CG as opposed to make up too makes me feel like they should have probably made this film animated, make it a bit less jarring for these rather cartoonish orcs and the very realistic humans to clash.
Still am interested to see how this goes, it's been hard to find some great big medieval inspired fantasy post Lord of the Rings, hopefully this will fit the bill.
8. Finding Dory
Already I can hear groans: "A Pixar sequel why?"
I already feel it, Pixar the one grand champion of animation kind of has hit a slump. Inside Out did give them a good recovery, but then got a bit kicked back down with the underwhelming take of The Good Dinosaur which is officially considered to be Pixar's first ever flop. And then there have been the fact before that had the trifecta of underwhelming, Cars 2, Brave and Monsters University. As good qualities as they may have, just really doesn't scream the emotional heart that many of their films have come before it. It's going to get worse after this because the next film is going to be Cars 3, the movie nobody asked for yet is being to sell out a few more toys. Then Toy Story 4, the film series has already felt like it left on a perfect note... why ruin that? Well that's not to say I'm not looking forward to their Dia De Los Muertos film Coco (Though Fox beat them to the punch with The Book of Life) and the long-damn-time coming The Incredibles 2, but I find myself a little less excited for the company with the lamp for an I, because they seem a little more interested in making money than some truly thought-provoking ideas.
But why am I looking forward to Finding Dory?
Dory. The abscent-minded companion to Marlin (Albert Brooks) in Finding Nemo is probably one of the most endearing cartoon characters I have ever seen. Her rather bubbly energetic personality, who swims face first into unknown danger even if she might not remember it. Hell her philosphy in life is to "just keep swimming, just keep swimming." Helped a great deal is Ellen DeGeneres giving a lot of warmth and energy to the character, the delivery of some of the lines just makes her work, including one heart-wrenching monologue near the end. She was absolutely one of my favorite parts of Finding Nemo.
If there was a reason to look forward to the film it's seeing the journey continue primarily from Dory's perspective. The idea of Dory trying to put her rather sporadic memory in order to find her family seems like it could work out for a story in itself. For the most part the trailers have sold me on the idea, not looking like it's going to be a complete retread even if it will revisit stuff and possible themes from the old film, I mean Dory ends in a fish tank like Nemo was in the first but hopefully for not most of the movie.
Now of course there is a possibility things could go wrong, having a supporting character be the main star of a sequel didn't do wonders for Cars 2 which made the miscalculation of focusing it on the rather annoying Mater. I just hope this will be an exception and Andrew Stanton's return to Pixar after the disaster that was John Carter works out.
7. Ghostbusters (2016)
Now haters seem to want to analyze my brain tissue after this.
I feel like there is a lot of things people seem to be treating this movie from the onset and that is an overwhelming amount of pessimism, that they take any sort of slightly "off" moment from the trailers that have released as a reason to think this will do damage to the name Ghostbusters. Think the amount of downvotes is a way of judging quality too, I think it's just a bunch of fanboyism that's the reason for that. Well I will admit to having reservations about this movie anyway, I mean who wouldn't after waiting for years of another Ghostbusters movie only for it to be denied time and again, ultimately made rather difficult with the passing of the film series' co-writer/Egon Spengler himself Harold Ramis.
But is Paul Feig's gender flipped new interpretation of the paranormal investigators and eliminators look as bad as people seem to exaggerate it as? While it does strike as a little bit sillier than the old films and I am kind of having trouble with Leslie Jones' character being uncomfortably close to a stereotype, I feel like a lot of the hate just seems like people expecting the worst blinding their judgment on it.
I don't see a problem with Jones, Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy and Kate McKinnon taking up the mantles, aside from few reservations they look like they can make quite unique busters from the old group, especially McKinnon who looks like she's having a ball. I don't see the problem that this won't be the exact same film as the previous ones, do we really want all remakes to retread the same thing? I don't see the problem with the movie employing rather cartoonish CG, as great as some of the effects were of the old film, I don't think effects should be the main priority if the comedy strikes right.
Then there is the fact that trailers usually can paint a rather incredibly different picture to how a movie will go, especially in the case of comedies. Paul Feig's previous film Spy was marred by a rather mediocre ad campaign that seemed to make it like the Paul Blart of spy movies, yet the final result was something a bit more restrained yet still rather amusing. And I don't really feel that much of the Sony hack scandal is going to paint my perception of the film, but I'd rather put that far aside to tackle the film on it's own merits.
Just to say to people hating this movie, just wait and see. And if it turns out to suck, the old movies will not go away. Hell if you need a true Ghostbusters III with the original cast try the 2009 video game that even has a script penned by Dan Aykroyd and Ramis, you can probably still find it in game stores and on Steam.
Personally I feel like there is still things for me to be excited for, including the fact Hi-C Ecto Cooler will make a comeback as well. And let me tell you something, bustin' still makes me feel good.
6. X-Men: Apocalypse
I like to think of the combination of X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men Origins: Wolverine as a dark spot we would like to put far behind us, because damn if the X-Men name hasn't been on a bit of a resurgence in terms of cinema. Spurred off by Matthew Vaughn's excellent First Class, and following a rather forgettable return to Logan with The Wolverine, we get the utterly fantastic film that crosses the old and new X-Men: Days of Future Past which also heralded the return of the director of the first two films Bryan Singer, as well as this year's big apology letter from movie sins past Tim Miller's Deadpool.
Now what to make of this, Singer's fourth directorial effort in the franchise? Adapting the Age of Apocalypse story is definitely a step in the right direction. Even more-so setting it in the 1980s where it opens up the big opportunity of putting the X-Men in rather colorful fashions even if it means in their civilian clothing. And let us look at some of the X-Men in this film, bringing back established franchise names like Professor X (Now we see him get to be bald), Jean Grey, Cyclops, Storm, Nightcrawler, Beast, Mystique, Magneto and the scene-stealer from the last major film Quicksilver but also bringing others that haven't been done justice before but look to be now: Psylocke, Archangel and Jubilee though she hasn't been as prominent in the advertising which actually makes me rather worried. If only they had Dazzler this would have been perfect.
Then who do they have for Apocalypse? Oscar Isaac. In spite of his rather goofy looking appearance, looks to be the rather hammy theatrical villain this franchise would need. And making him a powerhouse to deal with would definitely make it all the more interesting to see how the X-Men will overcome the odds and save the world again.
But I will acknowledge that the film does worry me in that the franchise hasn't really been known to be a great juggler of characters, I feel some might actually turn out to be short-changed. In terms of short-changed characters I keep in mind that we still have yet to have a proper Rogue in this series and likely never will. The movie also quite controversially seems to put Mystique in a prominent position, making people seemingly angry for some reason, as though Jennifer Lawrence kicked a puppy or something. I also wonder we'll finally get the confirmation of Mystique being Nightcrawler's mum, we did get a great moment in the trailers of Quicksilver confirming Magneto is his dad, so why not them? I am still excited for the film mind you just I wonder if it will be the epic X-Men movie a lot of us have been waiting for.
Singer you have done some good films in the series but I do know to scale back some expectations, don't mess this up. Though I really wish this series didn't keep on bringing Wolverine in, like god, X-Men should survive without him.
5. The Nice Guys
Who knows better the buddy action movie than Shane Black? The guy pretty much popularized it with his Lethal Weapon films and pretty much can extend to a lot of his other works including The Last Boy Scout and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang which helped revive the career of once Hollywood punchline Robert Downey Jr.
This definitely looks like it could be an interesting buddy movie set in the 1970s between a rather tough-as-nails enforcer played by Russell Crowe consulting a rather squeamish private-eye played by Ryan Gosling trying to find a missing girl. Now of course we know Crowe for playing some tough guys, but how often do you see Gosling play the more restrained one? Make for an interesting dynamic that I hope carries the film through, played with all the witticism and dark comedy that is associated with a Shane Black movie, except 70s themed.
Now of course, the only issue I may have is a lot of the trailers, may have revealed too much of the movie. I mean is there something worth seeing a movie with a mystery if you've seen much of how the story plays out? I know I want to see the movie mainly for Crowe and Gosling playing off of each other, but I would like to see how the plot plays out as well, be left fresh for that.
Hopefully, grievances about marketing aside, this will be a blast from a filmmaker who pretty much popularized the term "I'm too old for this shit." I'm never too old for Shane Black.
4. Jason Bourne
Considering how much of an insignificant blip The Bourne Legacy was on this series, I bet some of you didn't think of this as the fifth entry in the series based upon Robert Ludlum's acclaimed series of spy novels. But things look a little return to form here, back is Matt Damon as Jason Bourne and Paul Greengrass in the director's chair, and no Jeremy Renner... sorry man.
Nine years after The Bourne Ultimatium the premise doesn't exactly strike of something original, agency is hacked into, forcing Jason Bourne to be on the run again, hell even echoing Supremacy by the fact he and a female companion are forced into a vehicle chase, which hopefully doesn't mean we'll get a reprise where Julia Stiles' Nicky ends up with a bullet in her head. Yep, I'm sour about Marie's death 12 years later, what of it?
But things definitely look promising enough, Bourne being chased, getting into a lot of action and spy twists. Seems familiar but I think the previous three Damon Bourne films are enough to make me excited to pipe my ass down for some shaky chase sequences. Tommy Lee Jones is even involved this time, guess he has to make a career out of hunting down dangerous people.
Now of course, this film comes with the fact that spy movies seem to be suddenly a thing again. I just hope in continuing the story of Jason Bourne it still keeps to it's strengths and not go into some contrived plot twists like the last James Bond film Spectre did. We're good too if it ends with Moby's "Extreme Ways."
3. Kubo and the Two Strings
A Japanese-inspired claymation film by Laika who did Coraline and ParaNorman? This is definitely on my radar for the idea alone.
Mainly my excitement comes from the studio's body of work, the American equivalent of Aardman animation just injects a whole lot of energy into their clay figures. It is just awe inspiring how much detail, how much energy they are able to pull off with developing these a single frame at a time. Even with a lesser movie like The BoxTrolls they are still giving a lot of effort into it.
The movie does seem typical Laika, a child goes into a fantastical journey. Except this journey involves Japanese mythology, where a hero dons a sword and a Shamisen to kick ass and make things to life out of paper. It does seem like a simple plot so far, but sometimes pretty simple stories can lead to amazing visual journeys and the visuals are striking so far.
Now to address a kind of elephant in the room, the fact most of the voice cast of the movie isn't Asian. With a movie that is Japanese influenced and does have George Takei as a principal character, it's filled with white actors like Art Parkinson, Ralph Fiennes, Rooney Mara, Charlize Theron and especially Matthew McConaughey whose southern drawl seems very out of place. I know there isn't as much weight put when white actors are cast as Asians in voice acting as you don't hear people decry Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra for doing the same thing. Though I just think that their last film The BoxTrolls is a very European influenced film and has most of it's main voice cast (Save for Elle Fanning and Tracy Morgan) be British, why not have Kubo get the cast mostly be Asian? Is Hollywood really thinking there isn't an abundance of bankable Asian actors?
Overall though I am still looking forward to what Laika would bring to the table, more than any other animated film that's going to come out this Summer.
2. Captain America: Civil War
I gave a Marvel movie coming out in a week that's been getting positive reviews got the second spot while the DC movie coming out in August that has gotten no reviews the eleventh. OHMYGOSH Marvel bias!
Well put it this way, before Civil War the Marvel Cinematic Universe has had 12 films, four television series', numerous spin-off comics and shorts that have developed it's universe to make it lead to this point, at varying degrees of quality to be certain but a consistent momentum. The DC Extended Universe films before Suicide Squad has only had two films that is trying to do it all at once as opposed to developing over time, to a much noticeably lesser quality. The first Marvel film chose to make a solo story about a hero and chose after the credits to get Nick Fury talking of The Avengers initiative. The second DC film just operates more like a trailer for the rest of the universe than an actual story and in a moment of utterly undeserved drama killing off one of it's principal heroes. I'm not asking DC to do the same exact thing but I just wish they had the idea to construct a better table before putting all their cards on it.
Back to Civil War, there is a lot of things being brought to this film. First off giving off big clash between Captain America (Chris Evans) and Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), continuing the development between Cap and Bucky (Sebastian Stan) that left off on a sad note with The Winter Soldier, and bringing quite a few Avengers into it (Save for Thor and Hulk but they got Thor: Ragnarok in 2017), almost could call it Avengers 2.5: Civil War. This film will also be the big feature debuts of Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) and "for the love of Zod finally" Spider-Man (Tom Holland). The latter definitely seems to be part of the major selling points as he was featured in a big way in one of the trailers and has been put in little parts on the TV Spots. And his eyes actually move this time, I think he and Deadpool can set a new precedent with heroes in masks, eat it Ben Affleck and your fake glowy light eyes.
As well for a big hero clash it doesn't seem to weigh to favorably on either side, just bringing serious ethics discussion in terms of superheroism to the table. This being in contrast in which the comic Civil War seemed to be too weighed in on Team Cap's side to a point it absolutely derails a lot of heroes on Team Iron Man including Tony Stark himself whose popularity was really tarnished by the comic story line until the first Iron Man movie pretty much saved the character. Made worse in the comic event Team Iron Man was supposed to be on the right side, even though they pretty much trash people's civil liberties in the name of superhero registration and overall just act like dicks. Hopefully this movie will be a bit more thoughtful in execution, particularly when it comes to handling heroes and collateral damage.
Now of course with a movie packed like this it does have me worried about in terms of how it handles the plots. One of the big faults of Age of Ultron was trying to juggle the plot of Ultron, Vision, the Maximov twins and setting up for the inevitable Infinity War, handling clout definitely wasn't one of the film's strongest suits. Of course too was seeing another superhero movie this year trying to handle a lot of plots and failing miserably, though at least in Civil War's case it wasn't being the second in a cinematic universe, it's the thirteenth. Then there is the fact this doesn't feel in particular as big in scope compared to it's comic counter-part though in some ways that can probably be a blessing since the Civil War event in Marvel Comics widely considered to be kind of a clustercuss.
But if the Russos can pull off juggling not just a Winter Soldier follow-up but Avengers as well, it makes me hopeful for how they'll bring a lot more to the table in the Infinity War two-parter. I know one thing this won't end though: The fanboy wars. I can only see things getting worse from here on in.
1. The BFG
Does seem unusual to put a film that hasn't been heavily marketed to death on the top isn't it? But if you look at the pedigree to this film, it might be understandable: It's a Steven Spielberg once again paired up with E.T. writer Melissa Matheson, adapting a Roald Dahl novel. Spielberg of course needs no real introduction as a lot of childhoods could be filled with the films he's either produced or directed. Dahl is the late great author that gave us such stories as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, James and the Giant Peach, Matilda and Fantastic Mr. Fox children stories that each have rather morbid and dark twists to them, all of which have had some very well-regarded and noteworthy adaptations.
Now of course we all know what the first thing that pops into people's minds hearing the letters BFG, but sorry Doom fans, Dahl came up with a definition 11 years before the Johns Carmack and Romero: Big Friendly Giant. The premise is simple a girl named Sophie (Ruby Barnhill) befriends a Giant (Mark Rylance, reuniting with Spielberg after his Oscar winning performance in Bridge of Spies) and ends up on a fantastical journey including getting into conflict with other giants.
This definitely looks like it has a trappings of another Spielberg classic, an unusual friendship, absolutely gorgeous visuals, score by John Williams (Who was absent for Bridge of Spies due to a little known movie called Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and charming whimsy to it that looks like it would be a very feel-good movie of the summer, though obviously not completely because this is Dahl we are talking about. This also marks the first time Spielberg has ever done a movie distributed by Disney, which I find weird it took this long for it to happen, though his own studio DreamWorks hasn't quite been the notable force it once was.
Now I do keep in mind Spielberg isn't infallible, with a filmmaker whose body of work extends back to the 1960s and rarely letting up in that time frame, he has made a few clunkers in one form or another. I can name a few faults of his filmmaking that he often does try to strike the sentimental train a bit too hard (The Terminal being a blatant case) and there are a few questionable attempts to churn an emotion out that feel like complete misfire (The traumatic sex scene in Munich anyone?).
But I am still looking forward to the film nonetheless, and hopefully it will be worthy of the most anticipated film this Summer.
And now to movies I AM NOT ANTICIPATING:
-Alice Through the Looking Glass: Wasn't interested in the previous Alice film, not interested in this one either, although does look a bit more colorful than Burton's film and it's being done by Muppets director James Bobin. Still not enough incentive and it already lost me using Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" in one of it's trailers.
-The Angry Birds Movie: *smashes head into a wall* Sorry the mere existence of this just upsets me, even with the trailers they seem like a weak justification for it's existence. Hope you love a minute long pee gag!
-The Secret Life of Pets: I'm kind of annoyed by Illumination by now, and to be honest it just doesn't look funny. And goodie, Universal will own DreamWorks Animation now.
-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows: Sorry, as much as you try to dangle the promise of Bebop, Rocksteady, Krang and Casey Jones in front of me, it still looks like the same uninspired garbage as the last film.
-Independence Day: Resurgence: 20 years too late, no Will Smith, and looks like it is trying to just destroy more things for the sake of destroying them. Sorry but it just doesn't look anything exciting.
-The Legend of Tarzan: Looks like another boring reboot, nothing more.
-Ben-Hur: *smashes head through a wall* As much as I like seeing John Huston getting a lead role, this looks like another uninspired "re-imagining" of a Hollywood epic. Morgan Freeman... why do you sully your career in crap like this?
*breathes out*
Welp see you in the Summer.

Osteocare Chewable is a convenient alternative to swallowing tablets and is suitable for children, men and women of all ages. The original Osteocare tablet formula has been developed by leading doctors and pharmacists. The well-balanced formula provides a rich source of calcium with co-factors to help maintain strong bones and teeth, as well as the health of the heart, muscles, and nerves. The formula includes the full-recommended daily allowances of calcium and magnesium, which play a vital role in bone development, along with vitamin D3 and zinc. With vitamin D (in the preferred D3 form) and zinc Vitamin D contributes to normal bone growth and development by helping the bones absorb calcium. It is also responsible for bone mineralization and producing the hormones which maintain healthy levels of calcium and phosphorus levels in the bones and bloodstream. Calcium is vital for older women Both sexes lose bone mass during their lifetime but after the menopause women usually lose bone mass much faster than men. Postmenopausal women have an increased risk of bone loss for three reasons: Bone mineral content tends to be lower in women than in men Dietary calcium intake may decrease with agethe rate of bone loss accelerates at menopause

Import additional images datas from OSCommerce 2.2 to Prestashop 18.104.22.168
This project was awarded to SigmaVisual for $95 USD.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$30 - $250 USD
Total Bids6
Project Description
I need a well written php script that will connect to our OScommerce 2.2 database shop and export the data for our products additional images, to our new store under Prestashop 220.127.116.11
The images files will also need to be imported using the Prestashop new images file structure (/img/p/x/x/x/x).
The products IDs under our Prestashop and OScommerce stores are the same. So the export—import database's datas part of the script should not be difficult.
The OScommerce additional images table structure is as follows:
1 additional_images_id int(11)
2 products_id int(11)
3 images_description varchar(128)
4 thumb_images varchar(255)
5 medium_images varchar(64)
6 popup_images
1* Your script will export the fields #2 products_id and # 6 popup_images
2* Your script will import these datas in Prestashop ps_image table, assigning products_id to id_product and using popup_images datas to generate id_image and copy the relevant images files to Prestashop images files structure.
3* The position field in Prestashop shall be determined by the additional_images_id value. Meaning that for one product in OScommerce with for example 3 additional images under additional_images_id 1234, 1235, 1236, the image for id 1234 will get position 2, 11235 position 3 and 11236 position 4 in Prestashop.
4* Your script shall take into account that there are about [url removed, login to view] images files to copy and should therefore be able to work in the background and avoid timeout issues.
5* Your script will also provide a status on the php page that the process is working, completed or in error.
Contact me if you need further information or clarification.
Thank you.

The US Defence Secretary, Robert Gates, appealed directly to Europeans yesterday to support the war in Afghanistan, warning that violence and terrorism would increase if Nato was defeated there.
Mr Gates said that the transatlantic alliance was under such stress over operations in Afghanistan that it risked imploding. Speaking in Munich to an audience that included presidents, foreign and defence ministers of many EU countries, Mr Gates acknowledged serious shortcomings in Nato operations in Afghanistan.
This was because the alliance was not working properly together to share the burden, he said.
"I am concerned that many people on this continent may not comprehend the magnitude of the direct threat to European security," he said. "We must not – we cannot – become a two-tiered alliance of those who are willing to fight and those who are not. Such a development, with all its implications for collective security, would in effect destroy the alliance."
Mr Gates's words took to a new, and far more acute, level arguments that have become ever sharper in recent months and culminated at an ill-tempered Nato summit in Lithuania last week. While the disputes at the Vilnius summit remained mostly behind closed doors, however, Mr Gates brought them loudly into the open at Munich.
Mr Gates was careful to name no names, but suggestions that some allies were less willing than others to sustain casualties have become a sensitive matter in Germany, where politicians are fending off calls from the Nato command either to contribute more troops to the international force as a whole, or to divert some of the troops serving under German command in northern Afghanistan to the more hostile terrain in the south.
Both the German Foreign minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, and the Defence minister, Franz Josef Jung, who had already addressed the Munich conference, had been at pains to set the record straight from their perspective. They insisted that the total number of German troops had been limited by the Bundestag, and there was little chance of an increase. They insisted, too, that northern Afghanistan was a dangerous place and Germany has taken casualties. They also argued that if, as Nato has proposed, some German troops were redeployed in the south, this would put at risk the continued success of the operation in the north.
German ministers recognise that their unwillingness to redeploy troops or increase the number is seen in some quarters as evidence of something akin to national cowardice.
While it is possible that France will send an additional 1,000 troops to help out in the south, this will not end the argument, which is partly about the whole performance of the alliance in Afghanistan, and partly about broader issues, such as the Nato command structure and commitment of individual members. As other speakers also noted, there was a deep gulf in public support for the operation between the US and many European countries, where it was doubted that success was even possible.
Mr Gates went out of his way to defend the Afghanistan operation as all of a piece with Nato's "core" purpose: "To defend the security interests and values of the transatlantic community". He presented Afghanistan as the epitome, in practice, of the threats that had been discussed by the alliance in theory during the 1990s – with the combination of an unstable state, terrorists linked by new technology; the nexus between drugs, terrorism and organised crime, as well as a "safe haven" that would allow "Islamic extremists to turn a poisonous ideology into a global movement".

Internet is not free and very expensive. 8euro/hr or 20euro/day. Room charges are already high for provided services so I think internet connection could be free or at a fair price. Internet cafes in the neighbourhood charge 1 euro/hour
The staff was very good and knowledgable. Hotel is very new so there was a not finished feel. Overall it was a very good stay.

I don't follow sports all that much. For the most part I would either much prefer to be playing myself rather than simply observing, or don't care about it at all.
I have however always had a soft spot for the Notre Dame "Fighting Irish", partly because I grew up within walking distance of that college, partly because my father was once a lineman on the team.
No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
Arkansas Razorback footbal, Razorback basketball, SEC football, SEC baseball, SEC basketball. Then the NFL comes in at a distant second with the Falcons and 49ers. Then NBA comes at an even more distant third with the Atlanta Hawks. Then MLB and Soccer are tied for a very distant last with the Cardinals and Chelsea.
But honestly outside of college sports and the NFL I couldn't even tell you much of anyting about the goings on in the other sports, Honestly, my hate for the Lakers and Yankees ouweighs my love of any major league team.
The NBA is a shit sportto begin with, full of lazy pieces of shit for the most part. I can respect the NFL and MLB players for giving a damn.

Top Tours & Activities in Berlin
German Tour: Parliament Quarter & Reichstag glass dome
Pergamon Museum Berlin Tickets
Berlin TV Tower Ticket
Top 10 things to do in Berlin
The history of Berlin has seen it broken and divided, fashioning a city that's nightlife and neighborhoods are as much of a draw as its bountiful museums and jarring architecture. Every corner has a story to tell, but here are a few worth starting with!
This holyland of 20's cabaret emerged as a Soviet showpiece in the Cold War. Central, accessible, and close to other key sights, Alexanderplatz is the perfect launchpad for a jaunt around town.
TV Tower
As the highest point in Berlin it can be seen from almost anywhere in the city. TV Tower tickets start at €13 for adults─a bargain for Berlin's best view!
Brandenburg Gate
Situated at the bottom of Unter den Linden, close to the Reichstag and Holocaust Memorial, the Brandenburg Gate is a monument to triumph, once in war, now in unity.
Germany's parliament is an icon of Berlin architecture. The modern glass dome crowning the Neo-Baroque building is open to visitors. From the dome of the Reichstag building you can experience an outstanding view of the city.
Government District
The Reichstag isn't all the Government District has to offer. At the north-eastern corner of Tiergarten Park, it's home to some of the best modern architecture in Berlin.
Madame Tussauds Berlin
Madame Tussauds is relatively new to the city but already has a colorful history. On opening day a visitor tore off Hitler's waxwork head! Only in Berlin!
Berlin Dungeon
See out a rainy day at the Berlin dungeon for a reminder of the city's nasty past. Large groups get generous discounts.
Potsdamer Platz
Once a post-war wasteland, Potsdamer Platz is now the spot for top-class hotels and film premieres (including the IMAX). The Berliner Philharmonie is just around the corner.
Known locally as Ku'Damm, this 2-mile boulevard forms Berlin's shopping district. KaDeWe─the continent's largest department store─marks its easternmost point near Wittenbergplatz.
In the historic Gendarmenmarkt the Berlin Concert House stands flanked by 2 cathedrals. Entrance to the German Cathedral is free, but the older French Cathedral costs €3 a ticket.
Planning Your Berlin Visit
When to go?
Unless you're averse to crowds, visit Berlin over the summer, when the city's relaxed street-life is at its most contagious. Include a Sunday to experience one of the bustling flea markets.
Where to stay?
Every Berlin neighborhood has its own character. Charlottenberg is relatively flash, with Mitte a trendier alternative. Prenzlauerberg is the city's café-culture capital, populated by young families. Schoeneberg is renowned for its gay clubs and bars, while Friendrichshain and Kreuzberg also provide plenty of nightlife options─most a little rough around the edges!
How to get around?
Berlin is covered by trains, trams, taxis, and buses. Train stations are largely unmanned with machines to buy tickets from. Many tourists mistakenly think the trains are free before being fined €60 by inspectors! The Berlin WelcomeCard covers public transport in Berlin and Potsdam for 2-5 days, and also provides discounts at many restaurants and attractions, including the Berlin Dungeon.

What People Are Saying About Berlin
It was very informative, the dome was great to look at. Cake was fab.
It was a great trip, very informative & organised with lovely views of famous buildings. It helped us to get a feel for the city. It was a nice atmosphere in the restaurant & they gave you a good portion of gorgeous cake (lots of choice & upmarket). The glass dome is artistically impressive with amazing design & structure.
Lizzy was really nice and very informative. Brilliant Guide!

She even made sure we all knew iur way back from the train station and offered tips for places to go/eat afterwards.
