Climate and Average Weather Year Round in Bulgaria
We show the climate in Bulgaria by comparing the average weather in 3 representative places: Sofia, Varna, and Plovdiv.
You can add or remove cities to customize the report to your liking. See all locations in Bulgaria.
You can drill down to a specific season, month, and even day by clicking the graphs or using the navigation panel.
Data Sources
This report illustrates the typical weather for Sofia, Varna, and Plovdiv year round, based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from January 1, 1980 to December 31, 2016.
The details of the data sources used on this page vary between places and are discussed in detail on each place's dedicated page:
The information on this site is provided as is, without any assurances as to its accuracy or suitability for any purpose. Weather data is prone to errors, outages, and other defects. We assume no responsibility for any decisions made on the basis of the content presented on this site.
We draw particular cautious attention to our reliance on the MERRA-2 model-based reconstructions for a number of important data series. While having the tremendous advantages of temporal and spatial completeness, these reconstructions: (1) are based on computer models that may have model-based errors, (2) are coarsely sampled on a 50 km grid and are therefore unable to reconstruct the local variations of many microclimates, and (3) have particular difficulty with the weather in some coastal areas, especially small islands.
We further caution that our travel scores are only as good as the data that underpin them, that weather conditions at any given location and time are unpredictable and variable, and that the definition of the scores reflects a particular set of preferences that may not agree with those of any particular reader.

9 Famous Christian Actors: You May Be Surprised!
Hollywood is a place that you would not typically identify with the Christian faith. There are many more films and actors or actresses that do not exemplify good morals and character. However, there are actors that do live by faith. Here is my list of nine well known or famous actors that are Christian. There are many other actors that are lesser known that are Christian but we will save those for another article. These nine actors are Christians. Some are not as public with their faith as others but these are all actors that have testified to Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

TheServerDoctor subscribes to the AGILE software methodology. Manifesto for Agile Software Development
We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value: Individuals and interactions over processes and tools Working software over comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration over contract negotiation Responding to change over following a plan That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.
© 2001, the above authors
this declaration may be freely copied in any form,
but only in its entirety through this notice.
|Kent Beck Mike Beedle Arie van Bennekum Alistair Cockburn Ward Cunningham Martin Fowler
|James Grenning Jim Highsmith Andrew Hunt Ron Jeffries Jon Kern Brian Marick
|Robert C. Martin Steve Mellor Ken Schwaber Jeff Sutherland Dave Thomas
Principles behind the Agile Manifesto
We follow these principles: Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer's competitive advantage. Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale. Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project. Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done. The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation. Working software is the primary measure of progress. Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility. Simplicity–the art of maximizing the amount of work not done–is essential. The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams. At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.

Tangible Embedded Linux
These instructions have most recently been heavily edited by Edgar Berdahl
(Some portions of the teaching materials may have been contributed by other authors such as Wendy Ju, Bill Verplank, Michael Gurevich, Spencer Salazar, Matt Wright, etc.)
This workshop consists of a condensed version of the material from labs 1 and 2 for the course Music 250A at Stanford University. For this workshop you need your Satellite CCRMA kit, a laptop computer with Ethernet adaptor to program it, and some headphones with a mini 1/8" (2.54mm) stereo jack.
You are also invited to bring the following optional items, but they are by no means required:
- Some of your favorite breadboardable sensors and LEDs.
- A set of small, battery powered speakers with 1/8" (2.54mm) jack.
- A pico projector with cable to HDMI connector.
Prior to coming to the workshop, you may wish to read more about Satellite CCRMA, Pure Data, Raspberry Pi, or the Arduino Nano.
- 1 Introductions
- 2 Powering Up For The First Time
- 3 Connect To Satellite CCRMA
- 4 Stop Default Patch and Run Pd
- 5 Learn A Little More About Pd
- 6 Routing Power On The Breadboard
- 7 Connect Your Analog Sensor To Pin A0
- 8 Make Your Tangible Embedded Prototype
- 9 Troubleshooting
- 10 Appendix A. Transferring Files To and From Your Kit
- 11 Appendix B. Learn A Lot More About Pd
- 12 Epilogue I. Protect The Flash Memory
- 13 Epilogue II. End Of Workshop
- Participants explain their backgrounds and what they would like to get out of the workshop.
- Show some videos of prior projects
- Construct Satellite CCRMA kits
Powering Up For The First Time
Plug the Ethernet port of the Satellite CCRMA into your laptop. Then use the provided power adaptor to power up the Raspberry Pi via the USB micro port. You should see some lights turn on, flickering every now and then. This means that Satellite CCRMA is booting up.
Connect To Satellite CCRMA
In order to see what your Satellite CCRMA kit is doing and program it, you need to log in to it. To do so, follow these instructions.
After you login, you will see the prompt ccrma@satellite:~$ This means that you are logged into a computer named "satellite" as the user "ccrma", and you are currently in the directory ~, which is the shortcut for your home directory.
Stop Default Patch and Run Pd
- In order to be able to hear audio, you will need to plug a pair of ear buds, headphones, or loudspeakers into the 1/8" (2.54mm) jack labeled AUDIO OUT on the Raspberry Pi. Be careful when plugging the headphones in and not to pull too hard on the headphone cable!
- A default pd patch starts running automatically when your kit finishes booting up. If your kit is configured correctly, the only evidence you will have of this is some sound in the headphones (you might have to touch the A0 pin on the Arduino with your finger to hear the sound). To stop the default patch, run the command
When you run this command, you will observe that the sound in the headphones stops.
Remember that each time you boot up your kit and want to edit your patch, you should stop the default patch from running by using the command stop-default
- Start pd now again with the following command:
pd &
This time the graphical user interface (GUI) for pd should also start.
- To start audio, click on the Compute audio checkbox.
- Now to test audio, go to the media pull-down menu and choose Test Audio and MIDI. If you still do not here any sound, then probably you missed one of the steps so far. If you look at the messages in the main pd window, you might find a clue.
- Once you have audio working, close the window test audio and MIDI window.
Learn A Little More About Pd
If you get stuck at some point while learning about pd, remember that you can right-click on an object to get help information about the object.
- The patch ~/pd/examples/just-play-WAV-files/play-WAV-file.pd shows the easiest way to play a WAV file.
- Look at the pd lecture patches stored in ~/pd/pd-lecture (For example, see the patch 4_algorithmic_music.pd. Make sure that audio is on and increase the volume from zero in the patch.)
- By default, the patch ~/on-startup/default-patch.pd runs right when the kit finishes booting up. Open this patch manually from within pd.
- Look at the left side of the patch. You will see that this patch automatically enables audio 8 seconds (i.e. 8000 milliseconds) after the patch is opened.
- Now, if you touch the A0 pin or the Arduino with your hand, you should be able to hear the sound of a windy day. (If you still don't hear anything, try touching a grounded object with your other hand.)
- The patch works by filtering white noise (from noise~) with a bandpass filter with a high quality factor. The output of the highpass filter is then scaled by a gain controlled from A0.
- Look inside the subpatches that are named pd <name> by double-clicking on them.
- In the next parts of the lab, you will learn how to connect a proper sensor to A0 to improve the quality of the sensing.
Routing Power On The Breadboard
- Remind yourself about how the sockets on the breadboard are wired together:
- Now you are going to start putting jumper wires into your breadboard. Try to be careful to build the circuit correctly. (If you create a short circuit (one kind of wiring mistake), then the lights will instantly all go off on the Arduino. If this happens, please try to undo the short circuit right away.)
- Now connect jumper wires as shown in the image below so that the upper and lower long columns can serve as a power supply for your future circuits.
- Connect a short jumper from the GND pin of the Arduino to the blue column.
- Connect a short jumper from the 5V pin of the Arduino to the red column.
- Finally, use two longer jumpers to connect together the blue columns and the red columns as shown below:
- Check your wires again to make sure that you did it correctly!
Connect Your Analog Sensor To Pin A0
Each participant should have one analog sensor in his or her kit. Optionally go to one of the following links to learn more about electronics or sensors. Ask one of the staff for help if you feel uncomfortable with electronics. We will help you. Note that in the schematics below, you should connect the A0 pin on the Arduino where it says V in the schematic.
Force-Sensing Resistor
If you have a force-sensing resistor, you can hook it up to an analog input of the Arduino by building a voltage divider out of it with a 33k fixed resistor. The idea is that you put two resistors in series between power and ground: one that changes resistance (your sensor), and one of a known, fixed resistance. At the point in between the two resistors, you can measure how much the voltage has dropped through the first resistor. This value changes as the ratio of resistances between variable and fixed resistors change.
- force-sensitive resistor (FSR):
- If instead you have a soft-pot or a standard potentiometer, then you can wire it up this way:
Range Sensor
- If you have an infra-red range sensor, then connect the black wire to ground, the red wire to 5V (power), and connect the other wire directly to an analog input on the Arduino.
Make Your Tangible Embedded Prototype
- Now use these tools to make a completed prototype by editing ~/on-startup/default-patch.pd
- This way, each time you power up your kit (whether or not a laptop is connected), it will run your modified patch.
- For additional exercises or things to think about, you may want to look at the Further Reading or down below also.
- Note that only one program or patch can use the Arduino at the same time.
- If you are having troubles, make sure that you do not have multiple copies of pd running and/or that you only have one patch open that accesses the Arduino.
Appendix A. Transferring Files To and From Your Kit
- Download CyberDuck to your laptop to make it easy to transfer files back and forth from your kit.
- Start CyberDuck on your laptop, and then create the following new bookmark:
- Once you have finished entering the text, close the bookmark window.
- Then you can use CyberDuck to connect to your Satellite CCRMA kit by double clicking on the SFTP to Satellite CCRMA bookmark.
- After you enter the password temppwd, CyberDuck will connect and open window to open up showing the files in the /home/ccrma home directory on your kit.
- You can drag and drop files from here to move them back and forth.
- If you move WAV files to your kit, please remember that the default sampling rate for pd is 22kHz, so you may want to resample them first. For example, Audacity can be used to resample the audio files.
Appendix B. Learn A Lot More About Pd
- Here are some lists of pd objects that you can use to discover new object names: http://protman.com/content/list-puredata-objects-and-extended-objects http://www.umatic.nl/workshop/objects.txt
- Go to the Help pull-down menu, choose Browser, go into Pure Data (near the top), and then look through the demonstration pd patches that are organized into chapters.
- For even more further learning, see the labs from the Music 250A course, which are stored in ~/pd/labs-Music-250a-2012
Advanced demo patches for users who have a monitor or pico projector connected:
- The pd patches in ~/pd/examples/SimpleGraphicsOSC can be used to send OSC messages to the SimpleGraphics executable to render hardware-accelerated graphics.
- OR, the patch ~/pd/examples/just-play-video/trigger-omxplayer.pd can be used to trigger the playback of H.264 or MPEG2-encoded video clips.
Epilogue I. Protect The Flash Memory
- Once you are completely done making your prototype, then run the command disable-flash-writes
- After this, any changes you make to your memory card will not be persistent. This means that you can power down your kit at any time without any warning (for instance if it is in a museum), and you do not have to worry about the disk integrity (as you would with your laptop for instance if its power were suddenly cut). If you change your mind later, you can always run the command enable-flash-writes to undo this step.
- (If you prefer not to protect the memory of your kit, then when you are finished and before you power it down, kindly remember to run the command sudo halt, enter the password, and then wait 20 seconds before removing the power.)
Epilogue II. End Of Workshop
- We will evaluate each others' interactions in pairs and then share the results in a concluding roundtable discussion.
- Please don't do this during the workshop unless you discuss it with me first: At home, you can setup your kit to connect directly to an Internet router (warning -- this method is still undergoing testing):
- First login using the usual method. Then run the command ethernet-use-dhcp
- Follow the instructions then for shutting down your kit.
- Disconnect your kit from your laptop and connect it directly to your home router. Then power up your Satellite CCRMA kit again.
- Now you can hopefully login from any other computer at home using the command ssh -XY firstname.lastname@example.com"
- If that doesn't work, you can either plug in a monitor and see what IP address CCRMA Satellite reports it has at the end of boot, or if you have a Mac or Linux, you can run the following command in the terminal to help you determine what IP address your Satellite CCRMA kit may have been assigned by the local router. The following version scans the addresses 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.254, but edit as necessary for your home network: for ip in 192.168.1.{1..254}; do ping -t 1 -i 0.2 $ip > /dev/null && echo "${ip} is up"; done
- Now, after you are logged into your kit, verify that you can access the Internet by running ping yahoo.com
- If you still cannot access the Internet from your kit, then find out the IP address of the name server for your network and then set it using set-name-server <IP_address_of_correct_name_server>
- At this point, you may be interested in other advanced features, so see a list of other useful commands.
- Assuming you are able to login again, you could change the configuration back to the way we had it during the workshop by running ethernet-use-staticIP
- Finally, for more information, please see the Satellite CCRMA main web page.

To convert length x width dimensions from feet to meters we should multiply each amount by the conversion factor. One foot equals 0.3048 meters, in order to convert 2 x 176 feet to meters we have to multiply each amount of feet by 0.3048 to obtain the length and width in meters. In this case to convert 2 x 176 feet into meters we should multiply the length which is 2 feet by 0.3048 and the width which is 176 feet by 0.3048. The result is the following:
2 x 176 feet = 0.61 x 53.64 meters
A foot (symbol: ft) is a unit of length. It is equal to 0.3048 m, and used in the imperial system of units and United States customary units. The unit of foot derived from the human foot. It is subdivided into 12 inches.
The meter (symbol: m) is the fundamental unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as "the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second." In 1799, France start using the metric system, and that is the first country using the metric.
To calculate a foot value to the corresponding value in meters, just multiply the quantity in feet by 0.3048 (the conversion factor).
meters = feet * 0.3048
The factor 0.3048 is the result from the division 1 / 3.28084 (centimeter definition). Therefore, another way would be:
meters = feet / 3.28084
- How many meters are in 2 by 176 feet?
- 2 x 176 feet is equal to how many meters?
- How to convert 2 feet x 176 feet to meters?
- What is 2 feet by 176 feet in meters?
- How many is 2ft x 176ft in meters?

Oklahoma State Cowboys Ventura Seat Portable Recliner Chair in Black is a portable recreational recliner with armrests and adjustable backpack straps you can take just about anywhere. It comes in four colors: Red, Lime, Navy and Black. Armrests mean comfort for some of us and the Ventura Seat won't disappoint. In addition, it's filled with high-density PU foam which provides the firmness you need to prevent aches in your back and bottom. If you prefer a wider seat over armrests, you can invert the armrests to increase the width of the seat to 20 inches. Six backrest positions offer a range of comfort possibilities, and adjustable backpack straps accommodate people of all heights. The Ventura Seat is great for the beach, pool, picnics, spectator sports or for dorm living and video gaming.

Beating Death Renews Tension in Cincinnati - NY Times
If you've seen this video, you know how unwarrented this "tension" is. A quote:
The cause of death of the man, Nathaniel Jones, 41, was under investigation. But preliminary autopsy results showed that Mr. Jones, who weighed 350 pounds, had an enlarged heart and that his blood contained cocaine and PCP, or "angel dust," both of which can cause bizarre or aggressive behavior, said Carl Parrott, the Hamilton County coroner.
"How many of our people have to die before the city decides to do something about it?" said Nathaniel Livingston Jr. of the Coalition for a Just Cincinnati.
You mean the drug problem in Cincinnati?

Gothic Victorian jewellery designs all handmade in Canada by jewellery designer Floriana Hartland
Not sure which necklace size to order? Use the list below as a guide to traditional necklace lengths for an average woman's body. Of course, everyone's preference for necklace length is unique, depending on body shape, preferred fit, and the style of necklace. For example, a delicate necklace will fit differently than a chunky one, and the exact length of a long necklace is not as critical as that of a short one.
Necklace Sizes
12-14 inches: around neck (choker)
16 inches: at neckline
18 inches: at collarbone
20 inches: a few inches below collarbone (mid-chest)
22-24 inches: at or just above décolletage
24 inches: just below décolletage
30 inches: a few inches below décolletage
36 inches: almost to waistline
How to measure your necklace size: The best way to determine the proper length to order is to measure a necklace you own in similar style. Another method is to drape a string around your neck, and to cut it once you have determined the length that suits you. Use that measurement as a guide to ordering the closest length available in the style of your choice.
Please visit the FAQ page for more tips on choosing the right style and size jewellery.
Make sure that your new bracelet fits you perfectly by measuring your wrist or a favorite bracelet before ordering. The average women's bracelet size is 7.5 inches, though we all know that wrists come in as many shapes and sizes as we do. Therefore, it is very important to double-check your wrist and bracelet size before ordering. Remember, your typical clothing size may not correspond to your wrist or bracelet size.
Bracelet Sizes
X-Small: 5.5 inches
Small: 6 inches
Medium: 6.5 inches
Large: 7 inches
X-Large: 7.5 inches
XXL: 8 inches
Please note that the sizes above are actual wrist sizes ( 1 to 1.5 inches will be added as required to your wrist measurement—see below). If a bracelet is either adjustable or has an extender chain, it will be noted in its product description. For beaded stretch bracelets a further option may be presented as the comfort level. This option will allow the individual to indicate preference on the how they want the bracelet to fit. The options will generally be snug, comfort, loose.
Petite and Plus Sizes
We want everyone to be comfortable wearing Gothic Grace jewellery. If you need to order a necklace or bracelet in a size not listed on a product's listing, please contact me about placing a custom order.

Amazon Studios' highly-anticipated series The Boys took the stage at New York Comic Con with a panel discussion with the cast and creators – and a first look at the subversive superhero series. In addition, fans were treated to a surprise cameo from Simon Pegg, whose likeness was the inspiration for "Hughie" in the original comic book series. It was revealed, with a quintessential awkward family photo, that Pegg will be appearing in the series as Hughie's (Jack Quaid) dad.
During the panel, a corporate video from Vought's VP of Hero Management, Madelyn Stillwell (Elisabeth Shue), revealed just how much of a business it is to be super.
During Comic-Con, a new poster featuring "The Seven" was revealed along with the previously released image of The Boys.
The Boys is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes – who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods – abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about "The Seven," and Vought – the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages these superheroes.
The Supes of "The Seven" are A-TRAIN (Jessie T. Usher, Independence Day: Resurgence), HOMELANDER (Antony Starr, Banshee), STARLIGHT (Erin Moriarty, Captain Fantastic), QUEEN MAEVE (Dominique McElligott, House of Cards), THE DEEP (Chace Crawford, Gossip Girl) and BLACK NOIR (Nathan Mitchell, Supernatural).
Along with Quaid, The Boys are rounded out by BUTCHER (Karl Urban, Star Trek), MOTHER'S MILK (Laz Alonso, Detroit), FRENCHIE (Tomer Kapon, Hostages) and THE FEMALE (Karen Fukuhara, Suicide Squad).
The Amazon Studios hour-long superhero drama is developed and written by showrunner Eric Kripke (Supernatural). The eight-episode Prime Original series is co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and executive produced by Kripke, Point Grey Pictures' Evan Goldberg (Preacher), Seth Rogen (Preacher) and James Weaver (Preacher), Original Film's Neal H. Moritz (Prison Break), Ori Marmur (Preacher) and Pavun Shetty (New Girl), as well as Jason Netter and Ken Levin. Garth Ennis (Preacher) and Darick Robertson, who created the comic book on which the series is based, will also co-executive produce.
The Boys is scheduled for a 2019 global release, exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in over 200 countries and territories.
Midnight Mass: The Blood of Life
The isolated island community of Crockett receives a mysterious new head priest, full of secrets and a brand new testament under a very unusual Messenger of God.
Meet poor Riley Flynn (Zach Gilford), freshly released from prison and wracked with guilt over what got him there, a stupid drinking accident that caused the death of his ex-girlfriend. The last thing he wants to do is go back to Crockett and the judgment of the mostly religious community there, his disappointed family, and the nightmares of his ex's death that plague him. But where else would have him? Resignedly on the ferry, he goes.
Riley's dad Ed (Henry Thomas) isn't the kind of man who talks very much at all, much less about his feelings, or his very real disappointment in his elder son. Riley's teen brother Warren (Igby Rigney) has no idea what to say to him either, and just generally keeps mum. Riley's mom Annie (Kristin Lehman) is accepting and loving, hesitant in how to help her eldest son but never wavering in her faith in the help of our lord Jesus. Mom seems to think a good heaping dose of the Church would set Riley right but is surprised to learn that the old priest of the Parish, Pruitt, has taken an extended leave of absence from the island, and his newcomer replacement Father Paul (Hamish Linklater) is young, charismatic, and bursting at the seams to tell the whole island about the gifts he brought them, most especially what he claims as a new testament under a messenger of God.
We'll get back to that whole ball of issues in a moment, the other interesting characters of Crockett Island. Bev Keane (Samantha Sloyan) is the nightmarish overly polite and gently, almost lovingly condescending neighbor Christian woman you've ever loathed, the kind of person who explains away every last thing her Church may do wrong or contradictory because, after all, God works in mysterious ways. Pfft. Of course, Bev immediately ingratiates herself as the second to the new Father Paul in their services and is the first to start covering up his transgressions as they become more rampant.
Newcomers to Crockett Sheriff Hassan (Rahul Kohli) and his son Ali (Rahul Abburi) present a burgeoning problem to the plans of Father Paul and his shadowy companion, for they are both practicing Muslims. The practical side of investigating these so-called 'miracles' and strange happenings falls on Hassan's shoulders, as he already struggles with barely-concealed racism and suspicion from his fellow islanders, and of course his son is being wooed away from him by the promise of actual, tangible miracles, but from a different whole faith and God. Father Paul definitely does not practice a traditional Christian faith and relies far too much on making use of the eucharist, the ceremony of the blood and flesh of Jesus Christ turning into bread and wine and, well, consumed.
Wade (Michael Trucco) and his wife Dolly (Crystal Balint) are lifers of the island and both in general interested in one thing, the advancement of their own family, specifically their daughter Leeza (Annarah Cymone), who happens to be in a wheelchair. And that happens to be the canny Father Paul's first real miracle-with-a-cost that he demonstrates to the astonishment of the parishioners, after a heartfelt and rousing sermon, Father Paul commands Leeza to rise, to stand, and to walk. And lo, she does. What parents wouldn't wholly dedicate themselves to a cause after seeing this happen to their beloved precious daughter? The fringe benefits of healing, and power, the ones that come at a mighty, currently unnamed, cost, are simply a nice bonus.
Joe Collie (Robert Longstreet) is the town drunk, and while his reasons for drowning his sorrows in the sauce might be understandable, absolution wears a very different face when it comes from Father Paul. While Leeza might be willing to forgive Joe, and even as Joe begins attending the newly-formed Al-Anon meetings on the island of course hosted by Father Paul, redemption might've been better sought from medical professionals, and not this newfound method of religious worship.
Dr. Sarah Gunning (Annabeth Gish) is the islands' kind of all-around medic, and this is how she and Riley's old friend Erin (Kate Siegel), also newly returned to the island, a few months pregnant but traveling quietly alone, met when Erin comes to the Doc for obstetrics. Sarah's older mother Mildred Gunning (Alexandra Essoe) has many medical and mental issues, and Sarah struggles in their shared home, to take care of her addled mom and balance her own life. Then Father Paul takes it upon himself to visit one of his oldest parishioners, bringing the sacred host and wine with him to give directly to Mildred, who starts looking and acting so much better under his loving care.
The show is very much a slow slow burn, with a lot of the actual action taking place in the last two episodes. Much of the beginning and middle episodes feature two people just sitting alone, having quiet and seriously in-depth conversations about heavy subjects – grief and repentance, what happens when we die, the disasters that come as a result of addictions, how our actions' consequences reverberate to those we love around us, faith and the foibles of man, and of course, the giving of oneself over to a higher power, for strength, and guidance, and love.
Except, for the higher power that Father Paul brought back with him, to share with his beloved flock of Crockett Island, while it may be extremely powerful and full of what could be considered miraculous magic, everything comes at some kind of a cost. And when the Messenger of God is finally revealed to the shocked denizens of Crockett at Easter Mass, with Father Paul rapturing on about rebirth as the bloody massacre begins in earnest, it's faith, not in any kind of God or religion, but faith in each other, that may save a few hardy souls.
Question the wisdom of your religious leaders along with the rest of us in a fine slow-burn addition to the Flanaverse, Midnight Mass is on Netflix now!
Saw X: It ain't brain surgery!
Legendary executioner Jigsaw returns to exact revenge on a cadre of scam artists who promised him a bogus cure for his cancer!
First off, be aware, that this is what I call an interleaved sequel, a movie set between previous films in the franchise. In this case, Saw X occurs after the events of the very first Saw film, and before Saw II. Everybody got where we are? Good! Into the madness, we dive!
So, as we all know, John Kramer's been diagnosed with cancer, very aggressive brain cancer, and likely doesn't have much time left. And he's tried everything under the sun, doing a ton of meticulous research, we'd expect nothing less from our master of the art of murder, and not one thing has worked. Yet one man from the support group for cancer sufferers, Henry (Michael Beach), offers an off-the-books supposed miracle cure, and John jumps at the chance.
Why does this nonsense always sound too good to be true? Because it is. Deleted scenes from the first Deadpool movie already told us why traveling to Mexico for any kind of medical cure is a sublimely stupid move, but Kramer is desperate. And while he might be sick and dying, John Kramer has never been what anyone could call stupid. So the villa out in the Mexican countryside, the affable cab driver Diego (Joshua Okamoto) professes surprise at Kramer being highjacked for his good, the nervous muttering from assistant Valentina (Paulette Hernandez), the side-eyeing from little housekeep Gabriela (Renata Vaca) and her tequila, and most especially the smooth and smarming reassurances of head "doctor" Cecilia Pederson (Synnove Macody Lund), all leave a kind of sour taste in John's mouth.
The whole cluex4 scene is done in the style that the Saw films are known for, where we the audience are treated to cut-together explanatory scenes in a flip-flash fashion of usually about two minutes, for poor John when he realizes he's been hoodwinked and just how badly, seems a little contrived. But then it's entirely possible that we the audience truly expected our genius mastermind of the infamous Jigsaw murders to have realized what was happening sooner, and got enraged along with Kramer. And cheered as he prepared to take his bloody and ultra-violent revenge!
First up in our grand guignol of executions is the return of Jigsaw's first protégé, Amanda (Shawnee Smith). And despite her avowed reverence for Jigsaw and his proven "therapy", Amanda does waver a bit when the scammers are put through the paces of their specially-made Saw traps, and they shriek and blubber and bleed out. The appearance of the ringer of the bunch, Parker (Steven Brand), doesn't even slow our beloved engineer of the damned down, because we knew Jigsaw would have his other apprentice waiting just off stage, the deliciously vicious Detective Hoffman (Costas Mandylor). Even the monkeywrench of involving little-boy soccer fan Carlos (Jorge Briseno) in the traps, is just another cog in the machine that is the brilliantly plotting mind of John Kramer.
A fine addition to the Saw legends, showcasing a return to the beloved style and panache of the original Tobin Bell-starring Jigsaw films, Saw X is splashing gore and gallons of blood in theaters now!

The ensemble cast, including standout performances from Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ellen Wong, and Chris Evans embraces the gaming theme with infectious enthusiasm. The chemistry between the characters is palpable, adding emotional depth to the series.
"Scott Pilgrim Takes Off" successfully taps into the zeitgeist of video game culture, offering a nostalgic yet contemporary take on the gaming phenomenon.

The series takes off not only in its title but also in its ability to soar within the ever-expanding realm of Netflix originals.

Scorpions Merchandise
Known best for their 1984 anthem "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and the 1990 ballad "Wind of Change," the German rockers the Scorpions have sold over 22 million records, making them one of the most successful rock bands to ever come out of Continental Europe.
Originally formed in 1969 by Rudolf Schenker, the original lineup consisted of rhythm guitarist/vocalist Schenker, lead guitarist Karl-Heinz Follmer, bassist Lothar Heimberg, and drummer Wolfgang Dziony. In 1971, Schenker's younger brother Michael joined the band to play lead guitar and good friend Klaus Meine became the new vocalist. The group recorded Lonesome Crow in 1972, which was used as the soundtrack to the German movie Das Kalte Paradies. Although they failed to get into the public's eye, the early formation of '70s rock band UFO noticed Michael Schenker's guitar playing and hired him as their lead guitarist; Michael, therefore, would leave the band in 1973. Guitarist Uli Jon Roth replaced him, and under his guidance the group released four consecutive albums under the RCA record label: Fly to the Rainbow (1974), In Trance (1975), Virgin Killer (1976), and Taken by Force (1977). Although these albums failed to attain any serious attention in the United States, they were all quite popular in Japan. By the time Taken by Force was released, Roth made the decision to leave the band and form Electric Sun after feeling that his musical ideas would take the group in an entirely different direction. Tokyo Tapes, a double live album that the group recorded in Tokyo with Roth, was released in 1978. Shortly after Roth's departure, Michael Schenker was kicked out of UFO for his constant alcohol abuse and came back to play with the Scorpions in 1979, who had recently signed with Mercury Records. The group released Lovedrive that same year and played their first American tour, but Lovedrive failed to attract attention, being banned in the United States because of its sexually explicit cover. Still coping with his drugs and alcohol addiction, Michael missed tour dates repeatedly and guitarist Matthias Jabs was hired to fill in for him on nights when he was absent. Michael eventually would leave the band a second time after realizing that he was failing to meet their expectations.
Now with a lineup of Klaus Meine on vocals, Rudolf Schenker on rhythm guitar, Matthias Jabs on lead, Francis Buchholz on bass, and Herman Rarebell on drums, the band released Animal Magnetism in 1980 and embarked on another world tour. Surprisingly, Animal Magnetism went gold in the United States, and the Scorpions immediately went back into the studio to record their next release. Problems arose, however, and the project was postponed because Meine had lost his voice and would have to have surgery on his vocal chords. Many thought Meine had been fired from the band, and rumors spread that metal singer Don Dokken had already replaced him. The Scorpions proved these rumors untrue when Meine returned for the 1982 release Blackout, which contained the cult hit "No One Like You." A major success worldwide, Blackout sold over one-million copies in the U.S. alone. But as popular as Blackout was, it was the band's powerful follow-up, Love at First Sting, that succeeded in making them superstars. Released in 1984, the album boasted the MTV single "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and would eventually achieve double-platinum status. The group undertook one of their most successful world tours yet, boasting an outstanding stage show with high-energy performances.
After releasing World Wide Live in 1985, the band took a long hiatus and remained uninvolved from the music industry for two years. Their tenth studio album, Savage Amusement, was finally released in 1988, and the hit ballad "Rhythm of Love" brought on another major success. In 1990, the album Crazy World was released and would eventually become the Scorpions' biggest-selling record to date, drawing on the strength of the hit ballad "Wind of Change."
Not too surprisingly, Crazy World was the last successful Scorpions release in the U.S. By the time their Face the Heat album hit the shelves in 1993, many longtime fans had already lost interest in the band, due to the alternative explosion of the early '90s. Face the Heat did eventually reach gold, and in 1995 the band released another live album, Live Bites. Now with bassist Ralph Rieckermann and drummer James Kottak, they released Pure Instinct in 1996. Mercury Records assembled a double album of the band's greatest hits, Deadly Sting: The Mercury Years, and released it in 1997. Eye II Eye, an album in which the band experimented with pop-techno melodies, was released in the summer of 1999. Moment of Glory, featuring the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and several revamped versions of Scorpions cult classics, was released in fall 2000.

Stuffed chillies cooked with chicken marinated in spiced yogurt
Hyderabad's 400-year-old culinary history, like its culture, is unmatched by any other state in India. Of all the Muslim cuisines, Hyderabadi is the only one in the sub-continent that can boast of a major vegetarian section. This has much to do with the local influences. Considering that the elite of the erstwhile Hyderabad state came from the north of India and was almost entirely Muslim, this is a little surprising. The nation's vegetarians, of course, stand to gain by it.
Some of the salient features of Hyderabadi food are the key flavours of coconut, tamarind, peanuts and sesame seeds. The main spice is chilli, which is used in abundance and is the reason for the one word used to describe Hyderabadi cuisine - fiery!
The cuisine draws its flavour from two rich legacies - the Deccan cuisine of Nizams and the spicy Andhra style of food, laced with mustard, garlic and chillies and eaten with doles of chutney and pickle.

Mumia Abu-Jamal
Since his conviction in 1982 for the murder of Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner, Mumia Abu-Jamal, through his numerous books, essays and radio commentaries, has become the face of the anti-death penalty movement in the United States and an international cause célèbre. Paris, for example, made him an honorary citizen in 2003, bestowing the honor for the first time since Pablo Picasso received it in 1971.
Abu-Jamal's case has been politically charged from the beginning. As Amnesty International established in its 2000 pamphlet entitled "The Case of Mumia Abu-Jamal: A Life in the Balance," his tortuous appeal process has been fraught with "judicial machinations." Claims that won the day in other cases were repeatedly denied him, first by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court in 1989 and subsequently by a Federal District Court in 2001 where the judge overturned his death sentence but left in place in his conviction – and Abu-Jamal on death row – pending further appeals.
The latest example of what has become known as "the Mumia exception" occurred in March of 2008 when the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, in a sharply divided 2-1 decision, turned down Abu-Jamal's appeal for a new trial based on the claim that the prosecutor – through his use of peremptory challenges – purged otherwise qualified blacks from his jury. In 1986, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its landmark Batson decision, ruling that racial discrimination in jury selection is unconstitutional and merits the harmed defendant a new trial.
In a nutshell, the Third Circuit majority denied Abu-Jamal's Batson claim on a technicality of its own invention, not on its merits, ruling that his claim failed because he was not able to establish the racial composition of the entire jury pool at his 1982 trial. In issuing its ruling, the court, incredibly, ignored its own previous opposite rulings in the Holloway v. Horn in 2004 and Brinson v. Vaughn in 2005 where it specifically ruled it was not required for the defendants in those cases to establish such data.
Abu-Jamal's final opportunity for judicial relief is now before the U.S. Supreme Court in the form of a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari. On February 4, the high court docketed and accepted that filing. According to Abu-Jamal's lead attorney, Robert Bryan of San Francisco, "The central issue in this case is racism in jury selection. The prosecution systematically removed people from sitting on the trial jury purely because of the color of their skin, that is, being black."
Joseph McGill, the prosecutor at Abu-Jamal's trial, has stipulated in previous appeal proceedings that he used 10 of the 15 peremptory challenges he exercised to exclude blacks from the jury – a strike rate of 66.67 percent against potential black jurors. Such a high strike rate is in itself an extremely strong inference of discrimination. The result was that – in a city with a black population of over 40 percent in 1982 – only three of the 12 jurors impaneled were black. As Third Circuit Judge Thomas Ambro pointedly stated in his dissent, "It is my belief that the 66.67 percent strike rate, without reference to the total venire [jury pool], can stand on its own for the purpose of raising an inference of discrimination."
During last year's term, the U.S. Supreme Court expanded its 1986 Batson ruling to warrant a new trial if a minority defendant could show the inference of racial bias in the prosecutor's peremptory exclusion of one juror. Under Batson, the defense needed to show an inference – i.e., a pattern – of racial bias in the overall jury selection process. Ironically, the Supreme Court's 7-2 decision strengthening and expanding Batson's reach was written by Justice Samuel Alito, most recently of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.
As a result, there is something more than a remote possibility that the Supreme Court will agree to grant Abu-Jamal's writ. In denying Abu-Jamal's Batson claim, the Third Circuit's ruling created new law by placing new restrictions on a defendant's ability to file a Batson claim. The Third Circuit, in effect, tampered with and undermined a long-established Supreme Court ruling.
A Writ of Certiorari is a decision by the Supreme Court to hear an appeal from a lower court. Supreme Court justices rarely give a reason why they accept or deny Cert. Although all nine justices are involved in considering Cert Petitions, it takes only four justices to grant a Writ of Certiorari, even if five justices are against it. This is known as "the rule of four."
If the Supreme Court were to grant Cert on Abu-Jamal's Batson claim, one clean, simple option for it would be to remand the case to federal district court for the Batson hearing both the Federal District Court in 2001 and the Third Circuit in 2008 should have ordered. Such a hearing would, in all probability except for "the Mumia exception," lead to a new trial for Abu-Jamal. A new trial, considering the utter travesty of justice his original trial represented, would set him free. If Certiorari is denied, Abu-Jamal – now 54 – will, barring the most unlikely intervention by a future governor of Pennsylvania, spend the rest of his life in prison.
