We all know those annoying faces which appear in every other movie, playing almost the same character they've played before. Be it a subject-matter expert (like a scientist or a doctor), a socially awkward teenager with people issues or a middle-aged bearded goalless man, all these stereotyped roles are subject only to the actor's choice who's playing them.
Though sometimes we expect these very actors to reprise their "same character" roles every time, a bit of freshness every now and then wouldn't be bad either. While aplenty, I'll limit this list to the 16 best, 16 "glorious" roles in various movies which reminded us of the other similar ones and we fell prey to being confused if we were watching the right movie. Roles so cliché that we somehow thought the movie we're watching is some kind of a spinoff of another. Can anyone think of them as versatile "actors" at all? Well, we don't know yet. So, sit back and relax, because you're all well-versed with these roles, and also, not many spoilers this time. Here goes the list of actors who play almost the same character in every movie.
16. Vince Vaughn
Frequently appears as – A loved, untidy and eccentric character in comic roles, with a cynical sense of humour who needs to figure a lot with his life. Notable Exceptions – Clay Pigeons (1998), The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)
Should any casting director look for a good-old man with a squeaky sense of humour and an okayish persona, Vince Vaughn would probably be the go-to person. We've seen all his works from primarily monotonous ones like 'Old School (2003)' and 'Couples Retreat (2009)' to pretty damn serious ones like 'Clay Pigeons (1998)'. His roles after 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)' have primarily been limited to comedies and being weirdos. We would love seeing him reprise some action or romantic roles which he also is probably vying for.

15. Adam Sandler
Frequently appears as – An irritable guy in comic roles, with loads of curiosity and lots to learn. Notable Exceptions – Punch-Drunk Love (2002)
We all know a grown ass man who looks like he's on an advert all the time but without any mentoring, or even a millimetre of beard. From playing a foster father to a video-game enthusiast turned alien-fighter, Adam Sandler has probably played all his childhood dream roles on the big screen, with a brand-name attached to himself every now and then. As far as versatility is concerned, he's been limiting himself to comedies and romcoms and a few dramas, but nonetheless, he remains to be one of the most stereotyped actors suited to his own needs.

14. Helena Bonham Carter
Frequently appears as – A freakish witch/archaic character with a lot of makeup, curly messy hair, 18th-century dressing style who has an important role beside Johnny Depp in a historical/fictional movie. Notable Exceptions – Lady Jane (1986), Burton & Taylor (2013), A Room with a View (1985)
Probably because of her British descent, she ended up doing what most British actors do – live up to the expectations of bestselling authors' books and Shakespearean plays. From 'Harry Potter' franchise to 'Cinderella', Helena has been playing the role of many fictional yet powerful characters, even though cliched. I'm not sure if we'd ever see her in a more delightful albeit less dark roles except for the ones she had played before, with Johnny Depp not on her side.

13. Jason Bateman
Frequently appears as – An overly modest, selfless, responsible man with loads of onus to prove himself right, every single time. Notable Exceptions – Ozark – TV Series (2017-)
With a very generic face and physical attributes, combined with his expressionless style of comedy, we weren't hoping for the likes of Ozark TV Series to land upon Jason Bateman. Though he has a lot of potential and a knack for playing the same kind of roles over and again, we have been longing for a generic role with Jason Bateman "not" featuring in it. And guess who could replace him as the next commoner upright persona in Hollywood?

12. Jennifer Aniston
Frequently appears as – A waitress/damsel in distress, a messy woman who generally ends up falling for the guy she hated the most. Notable Exceptions – Marley & Me (2008), The Iron Giant (1999)
We all love Jennifer Aniston, not because of her capabilities as an actor or her award-winning performances, but the roles she has played in most of her movies so far. We do love seeing her falling in love and us falling in love with her in return. Only because of her similar roles or the character she portrays in her movies, despite however bland they all might have been.

11. Arnold Schwarzenegger
Frequently appears as – A cigar smoking ass-kicking family-oriented middle-aged person with some societal phobia issues, who often end up sacrificing himself and/or protecting another person in the process. Notable Exceptions – Jingle All the Way (1996)
A tall and hefty musculature, combined with the European accent and featuring in mind-blowing action sequences have been the signature that Arnold has left behind with many of his movies. Most of his films, ranging from the Terminator series to True Lies have been reminiscent of that. What is baffling is that none of his films failed to cast him as opposed to his preconceived notions as an actor, like a stress-torn lover boy or a terrible action hero. The king of cliched times?

10. Bruce Willis
Frequently appears as – The nearly-bald badass, caught up with something messed up that only he can overcome, using his pun, his aptitude for getting out of situations, his moral uprightness and his ungiving will. Notable Exceptions – The Sixth Sense (1999)
A happy-go-lucky Bruce Willis could be closer to fiction than to reality. The all-time ass-kicking immortal, morally indomitable character that Willis plays in his movies has been a trademark and a trendsetter for many of his likes to follow. What's more mesmerising is his old-school, no-tech-savvy approach which has been a delight to many. Though his movies don't lack the versatility factor completely, his roles have been limited so far, mostly like those of Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone.

9. Michelle Rodriguez
Frequently appears as – A burly tough-nut to crack female character, accompanied with a lot of guns and bullets, kicks and punches. Notable Exceptions – Blue Crush (2002)
The 'Girlfight' lead, who rose to fame with her stints in 'The Fast and the Furious' and 'Avatar' always plays the saviour in most of her movies. While she's been rated as one of the hottest women from time to time by various magazines, we are yet to see the "girly" phase of her portrayals, unless she ends up taking that too far like her laddish roles. Could she ever play a role wherein no "fights" are involved? Like ever?

8. Katherine Heigl
Frequently appears as – A rom-com's wannabe centre of attention, frequently falling in love, and with an uncontrollable flair for being a control freak. In short, a grown up baby. Notable Exceptions -Mostly none. 'Unforgettable (2017)' could be a far-fetched probability.
Despite her spell at Grey's Anatomy, which was widely appreciated and recognised, Katherine Heigl probably went into the news for all the wrong reasons. Being one of the most beautiful women in the world and a volley of career options at her disposal, she ends up choosing cliched character roles in most of her movies, either by chance or despair. Though 'Unforgettable' looked sort of promising from far away, overall the movie fails to deliver on all major fronts. In a perfect world, she's already made a non-stereotypical come back.

7. Samuel L. Jackson
Frequently appears as – A recursive, swearing motormouth with a short temper, often with a shaved head or a hat and a no-damns-given attitude. Notable Exceptions – The Incredibles (2004)
This one's a no-brainer. Have you ever seen a movie where Samuel Jackson gives a damn? About anything? Be it Nick Fury or Jules Winnfield or Major Marquis Warren, Samuel Jackson has shown his one and the only image he's been famous for. Probably the only time he doesn't swear is when he is a character from an animated movie. Or did they start giving PG-13 to the animated ones as well?

6. Zooey Deschanel
Frequently appears as – An acceptable, humorous yet socially awkward girl who gets along with most of the people/situations. Notable Exceptions – The Happening (2008)
Zooey Deschanel's mundanity is evident from her choice of movies like '500 days of Summer', 'Yes Man' and 'Our Idiot Brother'. All the humour and quirkiness is of no worth unless the viewers get some fresh air in terms of her appearance, persona or her style of delivery. Something we've been raring to see from her since 'All the Real Girls'.

5. Jim Carrey
Frequently appears as – A socially awkward guy who flexes a lot of facial muscles with oddest of the expressions, accompanied by a wild cynical laughter. Notable Exceptions – Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
It wouldn't be wrong to say this, but whenever we picture Jim Carrey in our minds, we kind-of picture 'The Mask'. Bright green face and the wide overbearing smile is hard to forget. With no exceptions sparing a few serious roles, Jim Carrey's movies and character portrayals are equally loved and despised around the world, for sadly the same reasons. Can he step out of his stereotypic shoes? Only time will tell. And 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' is an eternal example of why he should.

4. Zach Galifianakis
Frequently appears as – A bearded dimwit with boyhood issues and arrogance, who mostly relies on his nonchalant approach to putting up with himself and others. Notable Exceptions – Below (2002), Birdman (2014)
Okay. Does this sound familiar to you? A bearded man, who thinks he's above all and tries to rely upon or rather exploit the shortcomings of others to prove himself right (sort of) in the end? Meet Zach Galifianakis. We all have seen a weirdo, a relatively proud character going places in many of his movies, trying to get along with people, sorting things out (with other's help of course!) and coming up clean in the end. What's more to the story is that we love him more than ever, even in similar kind of roles, no matter what he does.

3. Vin Diesel
Frequently appears as – A bald muscular gangbanger with a badass attitude, who seldom cries and almost every time, punches and beats the crap out of his opponents. And btw, he can also play a nanny and a tree. Notable Exceptions – Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), The Iron Giant (1999)
With no offence to Vin Diesel's hardcore fans, whenever Vin Diesel has appeared in-person in any of his movies, he has failed to impress us, save his voice which is probably his only saviour (wink, wink!). Sparring a few instances, he goes the same old way to proving himself the hero, emerging victorious and walking away with the signature old cynical smile and gawky footwear in the end. Or driving a speed-car. Take any example, be it the 'xXx' series or 'Fast and the Furious' series, 'Chronicles of Riddick' or 'Babylon A.D.', he has shown us a promising penchant for being one of the actors working in his self-made silos.

2. Michael Cera
Frequently appears as – A sensitive, charming and redolent dorky person full of innocence and dry wit. Basically the male version of Zooey Deschanel, featuring in teenage comedic/romantic movies. Notable Exceptions – Mostly none. Does 'Frequency (2000)' count?
One thing that comes to mind when we see Michael Cera – Am I watching the correct movie? Everything is exactly the same save the actors surrounding him. Take any of them, 'Arrested Development', 'Juno' or 'Superbad', we have seen it all Michael Cera, haven't we? Go figure. Someone should seriously consider giving him a role in some Batman movie. Wait, what? Someone already did?

1. Jason Statham
Frequently appears as – A scowling, generally morally upright British-accented spy/secret agent/rogue assassin/serviceman who has a lot of things to worry about, including the wrinkles on his suit, driving a car during a chase or punching a couple of guys whilst wearing his suit or all of them altogether. Basically, a skinnier Vin Diesel, albeit more often shirtless, accompanied with a half-way British, half-way American accent. Notable Exceptions – Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998), Gnomeo & Juliet (2011)
To the naysayers, I must say this – whatever Jason Statham has accomplished till date is all credited to the stuff that differentiates him from any regular action hero i.e. no wit, a lot of glares and a tight fitted suit (that he probably also wore in his previous flick) accompanied with a lot of explosions, driving and chasing scenes and sultry babes emanating from a swimming pool. Whether it is about saving a kid or getting a rogue hiree to get a job done, Jason Statham is the person we should look forward too. But please, no other roles, especially the ones that involve making him smile too much. Psst! Is baldness a consequence of incessant driving?

Free Steamy Reads To Warm Up With In March!
Hey there! I'm not sure what March is looking like in your neck of the woods but it's minus five with snow on the ground here in Canada. That means it's perfect weather to curl up with a good book – preferably one that heats you up from the inside out! Who doesn't love getting lost in the pages of a great story with a hot new book boyfriend? And it just so happens I'm part of a promo involving thirty-six other authors all offering free steamy stories until March 7th. For more info just click the link below!
Book Three In The Omega Security Series
It's official! Book three in the Omega Security series is in production and it has a title! I can't tell you much about it at this stage, only that we are headed back to the Adirondacks (where the series began!) and book three will focus on Sam (the Little Creek mechanic from book one who lends Maggie his old F150 truck) and Gina (Maggie's defence lawyer). The sparks are already hopping off the page between these two!
Of course some of the other Omega characters will make various appearances and that pain in everyone's ass – Joker – will be up to his usual tricks.
I can tell you that book three has even more romantic suspense elements and a nasty piece of work who is hellbent on getting his revenge on Gina. However, he doesn't bargain on going through Sam Taber and the Omega Security crew to get it. Oh and then there's Gina's Nonna and her four-legged fur ball of fury!
The publishing date has yet to be set and there'll be an update on that soon but in the meantime I can reveal the title of Book Three in The Omega Security Series is – drumroll please! – The Games We Play.
All The Little Pieces
So, I released another book… yup, All The Little Pieces – Book Two In The Omega Security series released on 19th July 2018. Hadn't heard? Well that's no surprise really because I didn't tell anyone!
In keeping with my reverse marketing approach, I hit the publish button and that was it. This wasn't intentional and as a matter of fact I had a totally different release strategy planned for this book (yes, I had an actual plan this time). However, my impulsive nature got the better of me (again…) and I changed the plan about three quarters of the way through and decided to set up a pre-order on Amazon. Unfortunately, when I did this, I didn't realise it would then lock me in to the date I had set for publication – the 19th of July.
Then, of course, life decided to kick my ass and things other than writing had to take priority, so it was all I could do to just meet the publishing deadline. Marketing and promotion efforts went out the window and things became quite manic!
Throughout it all I had my lovely editor – the wonderful Sheryl Lee – waiting patiently for the finished product. I thank heavens for her incredible understanding and patience!
In keeping with tradition, I asked her to give her editorial opinion of All The Little Pieces on release day. It's a bit late but here it is.
"Nobody writes a book about damaged people finding their way better than Roisin.
From the very beginning your heart bleeds for Ruby and you're in her corner, willing her to let out her pain so she can heal.
2016 – Farewell
The last day of 2016 is here and I, for one, am ready to bid it farewell. It's been a year of fantastic highs and some hard-hitting lows – a true rollercoaster. However, there is one thing I achieved this year that I had dreamed of doing all my life and that is publishing my first full length novel – Someone To Come Back To.
I'm a great believer in marking special occasions – as life is simply too short not to – and celebrated the launch of the ebook online with a wonderful party. A few months later the paperback version was released and the first copies arrived in Brisbane and how wonderful it was to finally hold my baby in my hands! I decided another party was needed but this time I needed to pop some real corks! Below are a few photos of the event back in August. I'd like to thank all those who have supported me on my writing journey so far – from all over the world! It means so much to me that you love my stories. I'd like to wish you all the very, very best for 2017 – much love, Roisin.
I'm A Writer – Will I Starve?
Suffering from serious crisis of confidence this morning and wondering if I'm chasing some sort of fool's folly (well it is Monday!) so I've spent the past few hours cruising the internet for inspiration and came across this great talk by successful indie author Linda Gillard, speaking at the Edinburgh Publishing Conference 2013. Her talk starts at 28 minutes. Interestingly her talk is followed by Mark Coker, founder of Smashwords. Enjoy!

Dr. Jamie Weiner is a New Jersey State licensed audiologist (#747) and hearing aid dispenser (#1127) specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss. After receiving her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication Disorders and Sciences from the State University at Buffalo, she earned her doctoral degree in Audiology from Towson University. Dr. Weiner received national attention for her research on music-induced hearing loss. She presented her findings at the American Academy of Audiology conference as well as a published article in Audiology Today. More recently she participated in research regarding the sound quality of hearing aids. These findings were published by Audiology Online. Dr. Weiner is a fellow of the American Academy of Audiology.
Prior to joining Bergen Audiology, Dr. Weiner was the sole audiologist in an office within a multi-location private practice in Paramus, NJ for over 7 years. During her time
Dr. Weiner is excited to merge her excellent private practice experience with the exceptional medical practice provided by the physicians at Bergen ENT. This partnership will only benefit the patients to have the best care for their overall ear and hearing needs.
Dr. Weiner currently resides in Montclair, N.J. with her husband and her two daughters. She enjoys cooking, reading and traveling.
Conveniently Located within Bergen ENT
Bergen Audiology is located within the Bergen ENT practice of Doctors Inouye, Benson and Tomovic. All providers work together to offer the best medical and audiological care, allowing our patients to feel more comfortable and confident with their hearing aids.
We want to know all about you and are committed to you and your experience on your path to better hearing.
Budget Friendly
We will work to make sure that your journey to better hearing stays well within the budget you've set for that journey.
"I was very reluctant to have to consider hearing aids, although my hearing was definitely impaired. My son said "okay mom, enough already, I don't want to keep repeating what I say". Having no choice, I was tested and definitely told that I needed hearing aids! I made an appointment with Jamie Weiner and couldn't leave requested a better audiologist. She explained everything to me with specific details and instructions on the function of hearing aids and was very explicit how to use them, put them on and how to take care of them. She also showed how to change the batteries and how to open them slightly to save the use of the batteries when I am not wearing them. I left her office with my hearing aids and couldn't believe how capable and patient she was with me, as her patient. I recommend Jamie Weiner and her services as a top audiologist A #1."
Teaneck NJ
"Dr. Weiner is extremely through caring and obviously proficient in her medical specialty. She took the time to explain every detail of my hearing loss and options and potential outcome. My hearing aids have definitely helped me hear better. I am now hearing conversations and presentations clearly. I no longer need to sit in the front row to hear the presenter. Dr. Weiner is more patient and explained my hearing loss and options better than other hearing professionals I had visited."
"Jamie has been fantastic since day one. She had me bring in a family member so I could hear his voice with/without hearing aids. My family is so very glad I have my new hearing aids. I am no longer using closed captioning on television. I am hearing normal conversations more clearly. Jamie is wonderful and professional. She really cares and follows up with her patients. Very personable."

Sony Interactive Entertainment's Jim Ryan recently said that although the company will continue to support the PlayStation 4, it understandably has plans to release games that can "really only be enjoyed on the PS5" when the console launches.
This approach is nothing new but considering Microsoft's stance on cross-gen games and the PS4's massive install base, some took Ryan's statement negatively. Asked his thoughts on the matter, former Xbox executive Mike Ybarra supported Sony's stance and suggested that making games exclusively for next-gen consoles will make development easier.
Ybarra, who spent nearly two decades at Microsoft prior to joining Blizzard last year, tweeted:
I like it. I like having something that is the absolute latest tech and shows off my investment in the best possible way. It also reduces development time when devs can focus on absolute optimization of one hardware system. But at the same time, it comes at the cost of smaller install base.
Xbox General Manager, Aaron Greenberg, separately tweeted Microsoft's stance as follows:
Xbox believes in generations. Generations of games that play on latest hardware taking advantage of next-gen innovation offering more choice, value, and variety than any console launch ever. All our studios titles launch into Game Pass and you get those next-gen game upgrades for free.
It's clear that both console manufacturers are taking a different approach to next gen but that hasn't stopped fans from making comparisons. Replies to Ybarra's tweet are interesting, to say the least, as he's being accused of turning his back on his former employer by expressing his excitement about the PS5. Yikes!

Twitter Smackdown: 17 Of The Most Outrageous Celebrity Fights
Twitter feuds between famous celebrities go viral because everyone loves a good fight. The limited number of characters on Twitter means a good jab sent by a tweet needs to be short and punchy. Retweets then add insult to injury as the fans of either celebrity get involved in the fight and take sides.
With millions of fans, these Twitter battles sometimes have huge followings. Celebrities may start a fight just to get attention from fans. Other times, the fight is more personal because one celebrity feels that they were "dissed" by the other. One thing that is almost guaranteed to start a Twitter fight is if the significant other of one famous celebrity runs off with another one. The paparazzi fervor in catching photos of celebrities out in public and the media's speculation about celebrity relationships only add fuel to the fire of celebrity jealousy.
Once a Twitter fight starts, it usually escalates, and sometimes lasts for a very long time. Occasionally, the Twitter feud can end with a truce; however, not until the celebrities exhaust themselves with virulent insults cast towards their opponent. Fans jump in, just like kids in a schoolyard, and start flaming the opposition side with tweets and retweets.
Here are fifteen of the most outrageous celebrity Twitter battles. Get ready to tweet!
17. Meek Mill versus Drake
Meek Mill says that the super popular rapper Drake does not write his own lyrics. So, what? Many popbstars do not write their own songs. However, this started a major Twitter battle between Meek Mill and Drake.
Here is the tweet by Meek Mill attacking Drake:
"Stop comparing drake to me too…. He don't write his own raps! That's why he ain't tweet my album because we found out!"
This fight lasted for about a week. One good thing that came out of this fight is the recognition of ghostwriter Quentin Miller who was "outed" as the original creator of many of Drake's lyrics. Drake responded to Meek Mill with a couple of disses: tracks. One of those tracks was nominated for a Grammy. Take that Meek Mill!
16. Kim Kardashian Versus Chloë Grace Meritz And Bette Midler
When Kim Kardashian posted a naked selfie on Twitter, the Internet blew up. Not everyone was happy about it. On one side were excited fans that enjoyed seeing all the salacious details of what kind of body is needed to keep up with a Kardashian. On the other side were the famous celebrities that are feminists, which included Chloë Grace Moretz and Bette Midler. Here was the Kardashian tweet about her nude photo:
"When you're like I have nothing to wear LOL pic.twitter.com/UlSLZb1fp1"
Here is challenge tweet from Moretz:
"@KimKardashian I truly hope you realize how important setting goals are for young women, teaching them we have so much more to offer than this."
When Bette Midler spoke up as well, Kardashian lashed back at her with this tweet:
"hey @BetteMidler I really didn't want to bring up how you sent me a gift awhile back trying to be a fake friend then come at me #dejavu"
15. Rob Kardashian Versus Blac Chyna
When Blac Chyna broke up with Rob Kardashian, he went on Twitter to attack her. He claims he spent $100k for plastic surgery to have Chyna's body done. He complained she was disloyal, cheated on him, and got caught for having sex with so many others. He said he never cheated on her and forgave her for all the bad things she did.
Rob Kardashian also said she gave birth to their daughter and then left him when the little baby was only a few months old. He says he loves his little girl and that she is the best thing that ever happened to him. Nevertheless, after the baby was born, it was sad that Chyna left him.
14. Amanda Bynes Versus Rihanna
Amanda Bynes had a mental breakdown. While she was dealing with intense mental health issues, she started attacking many celebrities on Twitter. She called Jenny McCarthy, Zac Efron, the Obama family, Drake, Drake's mother, and Jay Z "ugly" people.
She conducted a very nasty Twitter attack on Rihanna. Bynes' tweets were way over the top, saying things like Chris Brown beat her because Rihanna is ugly. Bynes also said Rihanna looks like she's trying to be white and that Rihanna is a dog.
In the aftermath of the Twitter attack, Rihanna is doing just fine. Bynes was diagnosed with bipolar depression and mania. She has been nearly forgotten, with virtually no one interested in any more of her nasty tweets.
13. Nick Cannon Gets His Feelings Hurt by Chelsea Handler
This Twitter fight is a classic. It started in 2010 with a single joke made by trash-talking television show host Chelsea Handler who said, "I just heard Nick Cannon is starting a comedy tour. Who is going to do the comedy?" This tweet made Nick Cannon furious.
Cannon blasted back on Twitter saying "I don't know this broad." Then, he hit her with his "jokes" that Handler got her TV show by having sex with the President of the E! Network. He said she "looks like she got hit in the face with a hot bag of nickels!" Cannon added that Handler is "white trash" and that she is "like the new Joan Rivers just without the funny and more plastic surgery."
12. Azealia Banks Versus Lady Gaga
Rapper Azealia Banks launched a Twitter attack on Lady Gaga. Her claim was that Lady Gaga stole the title of "Red Flame" from a demo tape that Banks sent previously to Lady Gaga.
Banks obviously does not know that it is not possible to copyright the title of a song. Lyrics and music can be copyrighted but not titles. There is a good reason for this because it would stifle creativity if song titles could be copyrighted.
Naturally, this crazy claim of Banks went nowhere. However, there are unverified rumors that Lady Gaga offered to send Banks the leftover meat from the meat dress that Gaga wore at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards.
11. Ice Cube Versus Gene Simmons
Gene Simmons from Kiss told Rolling Stone magazine that he was "looking forward to the death of rap." This started a feud with rapper and hip-hop star Ice Cube. Ice Cube who was a member of the rap group N.W.A. was being inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. As part of his acceptance speech, M.C. Ren of N.W.A. said, "I want to say to Mr. Gene Simmons, hip-hop is here forever. Get used to it." Simmons slammed back with "let me know when Jimi Hendrix gets into the hip-hop hall of fame. Then you'll have a point." Ice Cube got in the definitive last word with this tweet:
"@genesimmons Who stole the soul? Chuck Berry, Little Richard, and Chubby Checkers help invent Rock 'n' Roll. We invent it. Y'all reprint it."
10. Shia LaBeouf Versus Alec Baldwin
In 2013, there was an attempt to do a play entitled Orphans that would star Alec Baldwin and Shia LaBeouf. LaBeouf was already showing signs of being an out-of-control "bad boy." LaBeiuf's bizarre behavior during this time was a precursor to the major public meltdowns that he experienced subsequently.
During rehearsals for the play, LaBeouf's actions got so bad that he was fired and thereafter the production was canceled. LaBeouf went on Twitter and published copies of the private emails about the matter. In the emails, the play's director says that LaBeouf and Baldwin are incompatible and that the director should have known it.
LaBeouf responds with a stream of consciousness rant about what it means to be a man as part of his apology to Baldwin.
9. Aziz Ansari Versus Rupert Murdoch
After the terrorist attack in Paris, Rupert Murdoch of the Fox Television Network went on Twitter to make an erroneous claim. He tweeted that even if most Muslims are peaceful, until they find and destroy the cancer of Jihadists among them, they are all responsible for such attacks.
Aziz Ansari responded to this bigoted tweet with a tirade that claimed Rupert Murdoch was responsible for the pedophiles in the Catholic church because he is Catholic and for John Lennon's murder because he now lives in New York.
Ansari's tweets were so hilarious that they started a trend with Twitter fans to blame Murdoch for everything that they do by using the hashtag #Rupert'sfault.
8. Kylie Jenner Versus Amber Rose
Amber Rose tweeted that Tyga should be ashamed of himself for dating Kylie Jenner when she was only 17 years old.
Kim Kardashian immediately told Amber Rose to leave her family alone in a series of attack tweets, while pointing out that in the past Amber Rose was a stripper. This provocation caused Amber Rose to go nuclear with Twitter attacks on the entire extended Kardashian family. Rose called then all plastic "hos." Rose also said that Kim supports her family by being a media "ho." Then, to really sink the claws in, Rose brought up the old vicious rumor that Khloe was the illegitimate daughter of O.J. Simpson.
7. Aaron Chalmers Versus Lewis Bloor
Guys can be just as jealous and vicious as women on Twitter. The Twitter feud between Aaron Chalmers and Lewis Bloor started over Marnie Simpson who stars in the Geordie Shore series. Simpson is on the show with Chalmers. She revealed on national TV that she was breaking up with Chalmers to start dating Bloor.
After that, Bloor went on Twitter to take on Chalmers. He told Chalmers that he was sorry that Simpson did not like his "peacock" face or his pencil-shaped private part. He also called him out for a physical fight anywhere Chalmers wanted to meet and that he would put the "peacock boy" on his back.
6. John Cleese Versus Piers Morgan
Piers Morgan, who once hosted a television show called Piers Morgan Live, is considered by many to be a complete jerk. On television, he says things that are detestable. In person, he is even worse.
One actor who really does not like Morgan is John Cleese. Cleese was one of the comedians in Monty Python series. These two got in a Twitter fight that has some very fun British humor. Cleese poked Morgan in the eye with this tweet:
"Piers Morgan writes that I didn't recognize him in a restaurant in New York. I did. I just didn't want to speak to someone I truly detest."
5. Piers Morgan Attacks J.K. Rowling
J.K. Rowling is the beloved author and creator of the legendary Harry Potter franchise, which was responsible for making the author a billionaire.
Piers Morgan attacked Rowling with offensive tweets. He said, "Nobody plays the celebrity game more abusively and ruthlessly than you, Ms. Intensively Private Billionaire." Why Morgan would attack Rowling seems insane. Rowling fans overwhelm any hope of Morgan celebrity, which, at best, will be short-lived. He went from being a judge on a talent show to having his own show canceled and few people cared.
Rowling handled Morgan's Twitter attack in a brilliant way by responding to the insulting tweet with "Could the writer tell me who he is? I'd love to thank him!" We call that killing someone with kindness.
4. Charlie Sheen Versus Rihanna
It is a shame that Rihanna seems to be a target for unhinged celebrity nut jobs and wannabe celebrities suffering from a mental collapse. She became a target of a Twitter attack by Charlie Sheen.
Sheen was fired from the popular television show Two and a Half Men. He is known for excessive drug and alcohol use as well as disrespecting women.
This Twitter feud began when Sheen was out on the town at a restaurant with a woman who was his fiancée at the time. Sheen saw Rihanna was also eating in the restaurant. Sheen sent a note to her table asking if Rihanna would meet his fiancée who is a big fan. Rihanna refused, claiming that this would attract more attention from the paparazzi that were already outside the restaurant. This rebuttal made Sheen enraged.
Sheen went on Twitter to call Rihanna a "village idiot", a "douche" and say that it was a pleasure NOT meeting her. He also said that if she does not like the public attention, she should stay home.
Rihanna responded with a tweet calling Sheen "an old queen with his diapers in a bunch." Sheen tweeted back to thank her for calling him royalty and that she should "tend to the dungeon in his castle."
3. Kanye West Versus DeadMau5
Deadmau5 is a DJ known for wearing a mouse helmet during public appearances. Deadmau5 tweeted an attack directed towards Kanye West because West had a tweet showing an image of a torrent on his computer screen. A torrent is a link that is used by those wanting to illegally download music, movies, and software programs. The torrent was for a software program developed by Deadmau5, called Serum, which is used for audio production and sells for $189.
Instead of deleting the offensive tweet that showed West was stealing the program, West responded by saying the DJ's name was too difficult to pronounce. He also sent tweets making fun of the mouse helmet, asking if it was hot to wear and if he took it on an airplane as carry-on luggage when flying.
2. Lorde Versus Diplo
Diplo is a wealthy and successful producer. He is also a jerk and a misogynist. The proof of this is that he tweeted a body-shaming tweet with a link to a fundraising website used by people who want to raise money for medical treatments like plastic surgery. Here is his attack tweet directed at Taylor Swift:
"Get Taylor Swift A Booty [fund raising website]"
Swift's friend Lorde came right back with this slam:
"@diplo should we do something about your tiny penis while we're at it?"
Lorde's retort quickly shut down Diplo's arrogant behavior.
1. The POTUS Versus Everyone
The POTUS takes Twitter insults and feuds to a new level. Some of these feuds have lasted for many years. Here are a just a few examples of insults and responses:
Directed at Rosie Donald the POTUS wrote: "I feel sorry for Rosie 's new partner in love whose parents are devastated at the thought of their daughter being with @Rosie–a true loser." And Rosie replied, "wow u r an ass in every way."
Apparently, Russel Brand also pissed off the POTUS: "@katyperry must have been drunk when she married Russell Brand @rustyrockets" to which Russell Brand replied, "are you drunk when you write these tweets? Or does that foam you spray on your bald head make you high?"
The almighty Cher also couldn't escape the POTUS Twitter rants: "Cher is an average talent who is out of touch with reality." While Cher replied, "After today I can no longer call him President Trump. From this day forward…HE'S 'PRESIDENT TROLL'"
Cher has called him a loudmouth, bigoted, and obnoxious. Cher said that she would rather stick needles in her eyes than take a photo with him.

Kuwait to tender 100MWth solar CSP EOR plant, Middle East oil extraction creates great market for CSP
2017.07.05 From: CSP Focus
Kuwait is currently finalizing tender terms for a solar CSP EOR plant of capacity up to 100 MWth at Ratqa oilfield, and to launch the tender later this year. The oilfield owner Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) plans to use solar CSP steam for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) to reduce natural gas consumption.
Industry sources say that some 11 CSP companies have pre-qualified to bid on the tender. "KOC will consider only proven CSP technologies that are compatible with solar EOR operation and can operate in Kuwait's harsh weather climate. We believe that parabolic trough or linear Fresnel will probably be better. However, we will not specify the technology. We will qualify companies based on their technologies, experience and track record," KOC said.
The new facility would supply 3,000 barrels of solar steam per day, equivalent to over one million barrels of steam per year. "If the upcoming tender in Kuwait is successful, KOC plans tender for additional capacity."
In regions with high direct normal irradiance (DNI) levels, solar EOR offers heavy oil producers a competitive alternative to fossil fuel-fired energy production.
Kuwait, together with Oman, Saudi Arabia and the U.S. state of California is the most important solar EOR market. Both Kuwait and Oman are seeking positively for improving EOR-produced oil share, which will introduce great solar thermal capacity deployment for global solar CSP players.
Related free Report: Oman 1G Solar EOR project by PDO & Glasspoint.
EOR is an attractive business case for CSP developers as the technology is used to generate steam rather than produce electricity, removing the need for a power block.
The first solar EOR project was developed by solar EOR specialist GlassPoint in 2011, when it installed a 300 kW project in the U.S. state of California. Since then, GlassPoint has installed a 7 MWth facility in Oman in 2013 and the company is currently developing the giant 1 GW Miraah solar EOR project in Oman, expected to be completed this year. The project will generate an average of 6,000 tons of solar steam daily for oil production, dwarfing all other solar EOR installations.

Dyson is known for its exquisite home appliance range and one such top-notch product from them is Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool Air Purifier. The company acclaims that this single unit can simultaneously purify, cool, and heat your whole room at one-go.
They also say that the air purifier is intelligently designed to automatically sense pollution and capture the ultra-fine pollutants floating in and around you. Our team was eager to test its purification and heating performance as this air purifier is distinct from the league in the Indian market.
To know how much efficient is this purifier for the Indian atmosphere, how it will purify and heat at the same time, and is it really worth the price, you have to read-on. All your quest would be answered in our detailed breakdown on Dyson Pure Hot Cool Air Purifier.
Specifications Of Dyson Hot Plus Cool Air Purifier
Dyson Hot Plus Cool air purifier comes with the smartest technology in the market to give you the feel of fresh air all the time. Down below are a list of its features. All of them are explained in depth to give you a clear idea of how the device functions:
1. Design
The Dyson Air Purifier is a tall purifier. It is designed to occupy more of vertical space. The device measures approximately 41 inches in height and a bottom diameter of 8.1 inch. Further, it weighs roughly around 11lbs. You can fit it any corner of your room. Be rest assured, the style of it is sleek and neat to make it look like a decor piece in your room.
2. Automatic Sensors
The Dyson Air Purifier comes with ultra-fine automatic sensors. They automatically sense and report the air quality levels in the surroundings (PM 2.5, PM 10, VOC, and NO2) on LCD screen and in the Link App in real-time. The sensor update after every 12 seconds and give a 24-hour AQI graph which tells you the pattern of pollutants in the air.
3. 360° Vacuum-sealed Glass HEPA & Activated Carbon Filters
To purify they unit has a fully sealed filter system. It has two kinds of filters. The first one is a Tris-impregnated activated carbon filter to remove gases, volatile organic compounds, and odor from the air. The second one is a Glass HEPA filter to capture 99.95% of allergens and pollutants from the air. These filters are so powerful that they can even remove pollutants as small as 0.1 microns.
4. Powerful Air Multiplier Technology
The Dyson air purifier uses the most impactful Air Multiplier technology to deliver 290 liters of smooth purified air every second. The airflow is powerful enough to circulate throughout the room. For the same they also have customizable oscillations up to 350 degrees. The oscillation angles can be adjusted at – 45°, 90°, to 350°, to help project the smooth purified air in the entire room.
5. 3-in-1 Functions
The Dyson air purifier does three jobs: purifying, cooling, and heating. The Dyson Pure Hot+Cool™ uses the advanced technology to purify the air and maintain a comfortable temperature in your room all year round.
The purification process is done at the fullest. For cooling it blows a cool air similar to a fan. For heating it blows warm air. Both the hot and cold air comes from its blade less fan. So, it can actually suffice the need of three different devices depending on the temperature in your region.
6. Different Modes
The Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool Air Purifier can be set in different modes for a customized experience. The three modes that you get in this device are as follows:
a) Auto mode: This is smart mode by which the device intelligently sense the air quality and temperature so you don't have to adjust the settings repeatedly. The device works to remove the pollutants automatically and maintain a comfortable target temperature around you.
b) Draught-free Diffused Mode: In this mode the purifier just purifies the air around you without projecting the hot/cool air flow through the side vents.
c) Night mode: This one is to give you the perfect good night sleep. When in this mode, the machine works with the quietest settings and a dimmed screen. It continues to monitor and purify the air and at the same maintain the target temperature of the room.
7. Works With Dyson Control App
The unit is Wi-Fi enabled so you have to connect it to your Wi-Fi and then the Dyson app on your phone for remote operations. The Dyson Link app helps you to control the machine when at home or when outside(remotely) from your smart phone.
With this you can set your device to the desired setting before starting for home to make sure when you reach a pleasant atmosphere is already created in your room. The app also gives real time reports of air quality, temperature, humidity, and filter life.
8. Remote
The Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool air purifier comes with a curved and magnetised remote to store neatly on top of the unit. The remote is neatly labelled for easy operations. Nevertheless, you can always operate the machine from your phone using the app and as well as the remote.
Detailed Breakdown Of Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool Air Purifier
Reviewing Dyson air purifier was a cumbersome task but yet interesting. As it an expensive product so analyzing its worth was extremely important. We tested the machine inside out and analyzed its purification performance. All our recommendations are based on the testing process.
We tested its design, features, built, make, and its efficiency to purify to gauge its real worth. We took good 50 hours to come with this expert hands on review. So, let's start with it:
1. Purification Test
We were impressed to see its purification efficiency while performing the purification tests. We tested Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool air purifier for variety of pollens, allergens, pollutants, and bactria's and to our surprise it passed everything. The device can purify up to 99.5% efficiently. However, the time taken to purify might differ with the surrounding air.
Pollens, allergens, air pollutants, and bacteria's are everywhere in your household throughout the year no matter how clean you keep your house. While they may not be making you sick but they are not helping either.
These harmful particulate are invisible to the naked eye so are often ingested in our body. With time their accumulation causes health hazards. You should be doubly sure if you have toddlers or kids at home as they are the vulnerable to catch infections.
To fight against these tiny invader, the Pure Hot Cool Air purifier circulates air using its 360 degree filters. The air is circulated in every nook and corner of the room to make sure it removes 99.97% of allergens and pollutants.
On further analysis we found that the unit works best for a room size up to 600 sq.ft. This means you can install in your living room, kids bedroom,or the master bedroom. It will do the perfect job in minutes.
2. Thermostat Control
Next important aspect we wanted to check was its ability to heat or cool the room automatically via its thermostat control. For this you need to set the device to a comfortable desired temperature. When the room hits the temperature the fan shuts off. And as the room cools up and the temperature drops down, the fan starts to bring the temperature to the target temperature.
3. Heating And Cooling Feature
This feature is brought up by its no-vent 360 degree circulating fan. Along with purification the device can also work to cool or heat your room. Nevertheless, it depends on the weather conditions. In a normal season when its little hot, you can on the fan along with the purification mode to cool down your room and vice-versa.
Needless to say, the fan cooling effect is not similar to the effect caused by an AC but is good enough to give you cool fresh air. Be rest assured, we tested and love the fact that the fans are quiet. They are not like other purifier fans that make a constant rattling noise. The fan when in full speed produces a low humming sound which is soft to the ears.
4. Filter Efficiency
Dyson pure hot and cool has two kinds of filters. This model is upgraded version with Tris-coated activated carbon granule filter which is even more powerful to eradicate harmful pollutants like formaldehyde, toluene, naphthalene, and benzene from the atmosphere.
These kinds of pollutants are found in tobacco smoke, vehicle emission, gas stove, insulating material in home appliances, etc. The other filters that you get are the HEPA filters. They work for pollutants, bacteria, viruses, PM 2.5, PM 10, VOCs, and for other germs floating in the year.
While testing the filters, we found they work absolutely perfect for the Indian atmosphere. Most of the three tier cities and the metro cities in India are polluted with increase increase in number of vehicles and industrialization.
We tested it for different cities especially the metro cities to check the filter efficiency. The results were amazing no matter how much the air around you is polluted, the device works well to remove it.
5. Operation
Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool air purifier can be operated in two ways: from the app and from the remote. Both the ways are pretty simple.
The remote is labelled well to help you choose the desired function. And the other way to use is via the Dyson Link app.
For this you need to connect the unit to a Wi-Fi. Once connected download the app on your smart phone and control the unit. The best part is you can use the app to operate the unit remotely from anywhere in the world.
With this you can set your device to the desired setting before starting for home to make sure when you reach a pleasant atmosphere is already created in your room.
The best part of the remote is that its magnetic, it sticks to the top of the device instantly ensuring its not lost.The mobile app is also user-friendly. You can make necessary adjustments, check real time pollution level, get the daily report, or change the temperature using it. Overall, the device is quiet flexible to operate.
6. User-friendly Modes
The Dyson air purifier has user-friendly features. You can customize its functioning as per your requirement. On analyzing these modes we found that the auto-mode is good when the temperature around you is normal.
You just have to set a target comfortable temperature and the device operates to purify and maintain the target temperature.
Same way, if the weather around you is cool or hot, you can set the fan air as per the requirement. In addition to all this, there is a sleep mode to that dims up the light and slows down the operating sound. All these features make the device quiet customizable depending on different weather conditions.
7. Maintenance
Dyson Pure Hot Plus Cool does not require any stringent rules and service for maintenance. Instead maintaining the device is done it simple steps by cleaning the filters and the unit and changing the filter when required.
We suggest you to clean the filters once in a month for the increased life span of the unit. Thankfully, the filters are easy to access, you have to simply hold down the two buttons on either side of the unit and lift the fan portion.
The HEPA filters are to be removed and cleaned periodically. Further, the HEPA filters does not require annual replacement. The second active carbon filters don't need to be cleaned but are to be replaced. The carbon filters provide a fan time of good 4,000 hours(you can monitor them using the app) and after this they need to be replaced.
We evaluated and found the carbon filter require replacement once a year but that also depends on the usage. On the whole, there is additional monthly cost but an annual filter replacement cost is their. No matter which purifier you purchase, filter(activated carbon) change is required once a year.
8. Worth The Price
Air purifier is in itself a costly investment for your your and your family's health. As it is rightly said health is wealth. And if you believe in this saying then you should definitely try your hands on this unit. Although, this Dyson Air Purifier is costlier than the other air purifiers in the industry but its performance is unbeatable.
No other purifier in the market can remove pollutants, chemical substances, and microbes in the atmosphere efficiently like this one. So, for this kind of functioning the product is worth the price. A fresh air around your surrounding is the building block of a health body. You can invest in this if you want a healthy surrounding and a healthy body.

- Sleek stylish space saving design
- Easy control via the app and remote
- Tells real time air quality
- Has user-friendly modes

Why Is It The Best Air Purifier For Today's Pollution Level In India?
There has been a continuous change in the climatic conditions and also in the quality of air around us. Sadly, both these things are depreciating due to the influx of variety of industries and due to the fact that every second thing is commercialized. The smoke from industries, effluent waste, smoke from vehicles, and burning of fossil fuel to generate electricity are some of the prime factors that have made the quality of air around us to go from bad to worse.
To combat this issue, there is an increase in demand of air purifiers in India. Customers are buying them with a close eye as they trust the brands. But the sad part is the absence of any regulatory requirements and benchmarks associated with these air purifier's in India. Have you ever tested that the air purifier installed in your room is fulfilling the purpose and providing you a clean environment or not?
In India, all the conventional air purifiers that you you will find depend on the old age method of gauging their performance by carrying out a laboratory test method called 'Clean Air Delivery Rate'. This test was developed 30 years ago and it no where represents the today real home conditions. Therefore, it is obsolete for today's scenario and the high pollution levels.
The Clean Air Delivery rate test is conducted in a small compact chamber of just 127sq ft. This size no where resembles to the size of the rooms that we have today. In the chamber, one fan is added to circulate the air and one sensor to gauge the air quality. The box type purifier when placed in this room does not circulate the clear air all around the room instead create a clean air bubble around the device.
This often manipulate the sensors into believing that the room has clean air but sadly the clean air is just present around the machine. Thus, these air purifiers fail to give you the clean air across your entire room. So, the conventional air purifiers that only pass the CADR test does not really solve the problem to provide you clean air throughout the room.
Dyson has come up with the most advanced technology that combats to fight with the real life environment conditions. They have developed a much better validated testing process called the POLAR test. This test is the bench mark for the air purifiers manufactured by them to reflect real home usage more accurately.
The test is conducted in a large room of size 290sqft with no added fans around it. The size of the room is equal to the size of present day family rooms. No fan use is specifically synonymous to the Indian weather, as many people don't use fan during the peak pollution or during summers when the ACs are on.
In this test, the air purifier is placed in one corner of the room similar to the real life home situation and 9 sensors are placed at different locations in the room to check the performance. Out of these 1 sensor is placed in the center and the rest of the 8 are placed in different areas spread apart so as to check the level of air quality and map out how the air purifier is working in every section of the room.
This method is thus the most accurate method to assesses the ability of the air purifier to remove the harmful pollutants, and gases, and thereby uniformly clean the air around the whole room via airflow projection. POLAR test is the most accurate testing method that should be followed for testing any air purifier.
For a machine that passes the POLAR test, the machines should do three basic things. First the purifier should sense the pollution level and the quality of the air in your room automatically. Second it should remove the gases and tiny pollutants from the air. And third it should mix, circulate, and project the purified air all around the whole room. These three things when combined ensure the air around the room is thoroughly purified. The Dyson Hot Plus Cool Air Purifier designed and tested to do all of this properly. And that is why it is the best air purifier in India to fight against the variety of pollutant and gases in the air.
While all the Dyson Product that we have reviewed does not mark high but this one certainly does. This device can work in three ways: purifier, heater, and fan. As a purifier it works to eliminate the health hazardous particulate matters, pollutants, bacteria, germs, and other viruses from the air by up to 99.97%.
As a fan, it provides you cool fresh air. And as a heater, it deliver continuous hot air to maintain/reach a chosen temperature in your room after which its shuts down to save electricity. If you are someone who is finding hard to cope up with the polluted atmosphere, prefer buying this unit for your and your family's health.

Terrazza is an Italian restaurant located on the eighth floor of Pathumwan Princess Hotel, serving authentic, family-style Italian cuisine. Under the stewardship of Roberto Panariello, Chef de Cuisine of Terrazza, simplicity is used as the mantra when creating the scrumptious menu for the restaurant. Pleasing taste relies chiefly on the quality and freshness of ingredients. The authenticity of the cuisine served at Terrazza is further guaranteed by the 'Ospitaliltà Italiana' award granted by the Thai-Italian Chamber of Commerce and Unioncamere.
Terrazza – Fills your stomach with satisfaction
Terrazza should be awarded the best family-style Italian restaurant in Bangkok. Following the tradition of Italian, food and especially a feast of yummy food sharing among family members and friends is an indispensable part of their life. Terrazza is a perfect example of this food culture of Italy.
Terrazza – The dining experience
We have had a fabulous dining experience at Terrazza, enjoying some beautiful dishes prepared by Chef Roberto and his team. Dishes tasted fresh and are delightful to the palate!
(1) Housemade bread
Every piece of bread served is the work of kneading, precise baking and cooking time by Chef Roberto's team.
(2) Caprese (Fresh Tomatoes, Burrata and Basil leaves)
The beauty of this dish is its simplicity. It's a classic Italian dish consisting of only three ingredients. The sweetness of tomatoes, the freshness of burrata cheese imported from Italy and the aroma of the basil leaves create this freshest and tastiest appetizer.
(3) Fantasy Salmon (Carpaccio Fresh Salmon and Marinated Fresh Salmon, wrapped with Smoked Salmon)
Three kinds of salmon are perfectly weaved together with complementing taste. It's a plate-licking dish, especially for salmon lovers.
(4) Risotto with Funghi Porcini, Pecorino Cheese & Summer Black Truffle (Porcini Mushrooms, Pecorino Cheese and Black Summer Truffles served in a Parmesan Shell)
The serving of this risotto is huge and explosive with pleasing flavours of porcini mushrooms and pecorino cheese. The sauce is the magic of heaven, it can make a perfect dipping sauce for anything, especially warm bread. To savour this dish, break the parmesan shell and eat it with the risotto, it will give you a crispy texture and some cheesy saltiness on your palate! It's just lovely!
(5) Duck & Balsamic Glaze (Duck Breast, Onion, Garlic, Rosemary, Sage, Thyme, Honey, Balsamic Vinaigrette, Spaghetti, Basil Pesto and Blue Cheese)
After the risotto, we were already quite full. But it's guilty not to try this dish at all. The duck breast was perfectly cooked to unleash its tenderness and aroma. The balsamic glaze made the duck breast even more enticing.
(6) Scallops & Asparagus (Scallops, Asparagus, Parma Ham and Parmesan Slices)
When the best quality of ingredients is chosen for a dish prepared by a chef as experienced as Chef Roberto, it will always be a wonderful dish to savour. The scallops were cooked just right to leave the original juice and flavour.
(7) Pizza Terrazza (Tomato Sauce, Mozzarella, Cherry Tomato, Parma Ham (San Daniele), Wild Rocket, Radicchio and Sliced Parmesan)
How could we not taste a piece of pizza when enjoying Italian cuisine. This pizza struck me with delight! I like the soft pizza dough. With the careful choice of the type of Parma ham, the pizza was tasted with a subtle sweetness. The pizza was flavoursome, with all ingredients complemented to a pleasing rounded taste! It's lovely!
(8) Cannolo Siciliano Served with Strawberry Ice Cream
It's one of the signature desserts at Terrazza. The crispy cannolo was stuffed with fresh strawberry and ice-cream. Yummy is the only right word to describe this dessert.
(9) Grandmother Giovanna's Apple Cake
It's another signature dessert at Terrazza and we really highly recommend it to you all! As explained by Chef Roberto, this is his grandma's home recipe. I personally like this dessert a lot. The apple cake is served hot with soft, tasty apple slices inside the cake! Eating it with the vanilla ice-cream on top, I literally enter a gourmet world of pleasure.

New Group at Middle School Seeks to Support Students of Color
Farragut Middle School is launching a group aimed at ensuring that students of color feel seen, heard, empowered and supported in the Hastings-on-Hudson community.
The first of its kind at the middle school, the FMS Affinity Group provides a safe space for students to talk about their experiences and openly share their feelings with others who may share the same beliefs and viewpoint.
"It provides a free space where they won't have to worry about censoring themselves because we share a common identity," said Jada Dickens, one of the faculty advisors of the group.
Although there is an affinity group in the high school, Dickens said it is important to provide the same atmosphere for middle school students. Having participated in an affinity group when she was in high school herself, Dickens said, she wished she had the option earlier.
"It was middle school that I really needed it," she said. "By the time they get into high school it's almost too late for us to have that conversation about who they feel they are as a person."
Advisors noted that the group intends to allow middle school students from grades five to eight a place to hold discussions with their peers who may differ in age but share similar identities. The goal of the group is to allow the students the chance to make connections that they may not make in school otherwise.
"Students oftentimes don't know where they fit in," said advisor Raquel Reid-McFarlane. "The whole idea of the group is having a sense of belonging."
The advisors also act as a bridge between administration and the faculty, allowing students to come to them if they ever feel marginalized or uncomfortable. Dickens said that allowing students to have conversations at a younger age may give them more confidence in and out of school.
"It is a place for them to gain tools," added Dickens. "It's important to have these conversations and to provide them with support."
Dickens and Reid-McFarlane agreed that it was no coincidence the group is starting now. With students more engaged in conversation about current events and the tumultuous times of the nation, both advisors said that now is the most important time to allow their students' voices to be heard.
"These kids are affected by what happens in the nation," said Dickens. "It's not just high school students, these students know what's going on as well."

The EU plans to reduce a level committing solar power parks to target model terms to 400 KW from 500 KW as of January 1, 2020, a development that promises to directly impact investor plans. Related Greek legislation will need to be ratified by the start of next year.
As a result, DAPEEP, the renewable energy market operator, will endorse operating aid contracts, reinforcing fixed prices, for new solar energy parks of up to 400 KW, while ventures with capacities over this level must hold feed-in premium contracts.
Target model obligations for holders of feed-in premium contracts require their participation in day-ahead markets – for matters concerning energy, not price – and the balancing market, which carries a discrepancy cost for investors.
According to sources, an EU decision has also been reached that will enable member states to continue offering existing and approved RES support systems for a two-year period beyond 2020, in 2021 and 2022.


text: One of the biggest contributors to pollution that often goes unnoticed is the use of single-use plastic bags from grocery stores and supermarkets. The use of these plastic bags has become so mundane and part of everyday life that we often forget how bad these plastic bags are for the environment. This is why we should all be encouraged to make the switch from single-use plastic to reusable bags instead.

Psychological. Shocking. Suspenseful. And downright BEAUTIFUL to look at. The Alfred Hitchcock Classics Collection II release in Ultra 4K is a DEFINITIVE release for some of the most thrilling classics from the master of the macabre. Seriously, there is no flaw to be seen in both the movies and the images as classics like Saboteur, Shadow of a Doubt, The Trouble with Harry, Marnie, and Family Plot practically leap off the screen and land in your lap.
Loaded with kidnappings, killings, bodies that won't stay buried, a whole lot of gaslighting, and huge fortunes, there's a lot to appreciate with the second volume of Hitchcock's Classics Collection! And that's just one movie! Are they essential viewing? Probably not, but that doesn't make them any less important. Starring Hollywood favorites such as Tippi Hedren, Sean Connery, Shirley MacLaine, Joseph Cotton, Robert Cummings, Norman Lloyd, Jerry Mathers, Teresa Wright, Bruce Dern, and John Forsythe, this collection features hours of bonus features as well!
In Alfred Hitchcock's Saboteur, a riveting wartime thriller, an innocent man suddenly finds himself in a very deadly situation. After aircraft factory worker Barry Kane (Robert Cummings) witnesses his plant's firebombing by a Nazi agent, he finds himself falsely accused of sabotage and killing his best friend. To clear his name, Kane begins a relentless cross-country chase that takes him from Los Angeles to Boulder Dam and New York's Radio City Music Hall. The suspense builds to a climactic finale atop the Statue of Liberty that has become one of the most iconic scenes ever filmed by the Master of Suspense.
In Shadow of a Doubt, Uncle Charlie (Joseph Cotton) comes to visit in the sleepy town of Santa Rosa and his favorite niece and namesake, "Young Charlie" (Teresa Wright) begins to suspect him of being the infamous Merry Widow murderer. As she draws closer to the truth, a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse begins, leading to a shocking climax in this riveting psychological thriller from Hitchcock, which was a personal favorite of his.
In the wickedly black comedy The Trouble with Harry, a picturesque New England gets upended thanks to Edmund Gwenn, John Forsythe, Shirley MacLaine and Jerry Mathers. You see, the trouble with Harry is that he is dead and, while no one really minds, everyone feels responsible. After Harry's body is discovered in the woods, several of the local residents must determine not only how and why he was killed but what to do with the body. Featuring romance, humor…and several unearthings of the corpse, this quirky romp showcases a decidedly different type of story from the Master of Suspense.
But there is more included!
In Marnie, we have Tippi Hedren playing a beautiful blonde who can't stop stealing from her bosses. But Sean Connery, a wealthy playboy, might have the cure to what ails her - even if she isn't willing to be experimented on. And in Family Plot, we have Hitchcock doing comedy as a phony psychic and her boyfriend find themselves caught up with a pair of kidnappers while tracking down a missing heir in California. This would be Hitchcock's final film.
The five brand-new 4K transfers of the original technicolor and black-and-white camera negatives for each of these films is monumentally beautiful. Truly, the results are as incredible as you can expect. Using state of the art technology, a new 8K 16bit scan of the original Technicolor camera negative became the basis for the 4K UHD scan. In a word: perfection. I cannot use enough adjectives to express how flawlessly beautiful these films look in their native 4K scan. This is not hyperbole.
The work of Alfred Hitchcock, a true cinematic class act delivering one masterpiece after another, RETURNS - this time in 4K - with the films included in this release!

Universally recognized as the Master of Suspense, the legendary Alfred Hitchcock directed some of cinema's most thrilling and unforgettable classics. The Alfred Hitchcock Classics Collection II features five cinematic gems in stunning 4K resolution.
The brand-new 4K transfer of the original camera negatives for each of these films is monumentally beautiful. Universal has outdone themselves. Truly, the results are as incredible as you can expect. Using state of the art technology, a new 8K 16-bit scan of the original Technicolor camera negative became the basis for the 4K UHD scan. In a word: perfection. I cannot use enough adjectives to express how flawlessly beautiful these films look in their native 4K scan. This is not hyperbole. Film grain is fine and intact and adds detail to the picture - the likes you have never seen. Colors, especially with the HDR enhancements, are deeper and punchier than they ever were before in the land of all things HITCHCOCK, without sacrificing their intended looks and atmosphere. In fact, the overall detail and depth of these pictures cannot be overstated. The 4K Blu-ray discs feature the DOLBY VISION HDR that dramatically expands the color palette and contrast range and uses dynamic metadata to automatically optimize the picture for every screen — frame by frame.
The DTS-HD Master Audio are ideal for these releases.

With a population of greater than 331 million individuals, it is the third most populous country on this planet. The nationwide capital is Washington, D.C., and essentially the most populous metropolis is New York City.
Portable Solar Generator Fargo
Fargo is the most populous metropolis within the US state of North Dakota. With an estimated 2019 inhabitants of 124,662 distributed over about 49.3 sq mi (127.7 km2), Fargo City is also probably the most densely populated major metropolis within the United States. Located at 46.86°N 96.82°W, with population density nearly 2,450/sq mi (950/km2) individuals in its metropolitan statistical space and its change +18.11% statistical.
USA Electricity Facts
The US electricity system is often described because the world's largest machine. It can also be extremely numerous, reflecting the policy preferences, needs, and accessible pure sources of each state.
The U.S. electrical grid is so previous and outdated it can't deal with the inflow of wind power and other intermittent renewable assets. Integrating such sources requires adapting a system that's finely tuned to balance the quantity of electricity being used with the quantity of electrical energy being generated with fickle winds.
But there's an much more pressing downside, in response to this article within the New York Times: the grid isn't large enough. The wind tends to blow strongest in places, akin to North and South Dakota, which are removed from the place folks dwell and use electricity. And nobody wants to spend the thousands and thousands of dollars it would take to put in a brand new transmission line (to not mention the legal headache of getting all those rights of means).

Importance of Backup Power
It is one of the most common recurring natural disasters in the United States and worldwide. Earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, power outages, fires, and many different natural disasters can occur, but hurricanes are some of the most prolific pure disasters we've got to take care of. I personally have been by hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and power outages and know firsthand how vital it is to have a conveyable power generator for a home.
Emergencies caused by disasters comparable to earthquakes, floods, and even terrorism can go away you in total darkness and disconnected from the rest of the world. When the grid is gone, your communication tower is likely to comply with swimsuit in a wide-scale disaster. You can't call! You can't watch TV! You can't listen to the radio! All you are able to do is feel vulnerable and helpless. But wait a minute, what about for those who had a conveyable solar-powered generator?
It is that one machine that may put you one step forward of emergencies when there is a power scarcity. You can charge your telephone and receive information from your radio or TV, power fridges and freezers, run followers and lights, and so forth.
During emergencies, Solar Generator will be the most important lifesaver. It might help you talk to make guarantee your family or buddies are safe and secure. Back in 2017 Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico extremely hard. Over 3,000 folks died and the power was out for 11 months. Almost a complete 12 months!
Portable Solar Generator
Solar backup utilizes solar power which is reliable,100% renewable, and completely free. In case of emergencies, you may power your devices or equipment immediately and save your self.
Diesel/gas generators don't store vitality. They only convert the diesel into an electrical present if you ignite it. To hold the power supply on, you have to refuel your generator with diesel commonly. Once the supply of diesel has depleted, you'll remain stuck.
Portable photovoltaic generators are pieces of kit that may generate electricity from the sunlight. They have turn into increasingly in style for quite a few reasons. They will help you in a natural catastrophe, similar to a hurricane, flood, twister, or harsh storm. As effectively, they can aid in power outages and EMP assaults that might knock out the standard power grid.
Now that we know slightly bit extra about what to search for in a photovoltaic generator, let's begin comparing among the many choices available. There is a variety of generators accessible from a wide range of producers, but some stand nicely above others relating to their high quality and lifespan. Thankfully, we've gone over 5 of probably the most revered solar generators available on the market to find out which one we predict is the best possible.
