Box Office Analysis: Dec. 2
Harry Potter continued flying high at the box office with $24 million, while Behind Enemy Lines opened to $19 million and longer lines than expected.
With no other wide openings this weekend, Spy Game, Monsters, Inc. and Black Knight held on to their Top Five positions despite predictably high percentage drops from their hefty Thanksgiving weekend grosses.
In typical post-Thanksgiving style, ticket sales tumbled as moviegoers returned to work and school. Key films — those grossing at least $500,000 — took in nearly $87 million. While that was up over 3 percent from last year's $84.1 million, it was off nearly 43 percent from Thanksgiving's three day gross of $151.5 million.
Warner Bros.' mega-blockbuster Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone finished first for a third consecutive week with a still enviable ESTIMATED $24.05 million (-58 percent) at 3,672 theaters (theater count unchanged; $6,550 per theater). Its cume is approximately $220.1 million, heading for the high $300 millions in domestic theaters.
(NOTE: Today's percentage variations are calculated against the Friday-Sunday portion of the five day Thanksgiving holiday period.)
Directed by Chris Columbus, Harry stars Daniel Radcliffe in its title role.
Asked where Harry is likely to go domestically, Warner Bros. Distribution executive vice president and general sales manager Jeff Goldstein said Sunday morning, "It's a little too soon to tell. I think we have to get through the next couple weeks. When we look at the percent drops after the holiday, it's very similar to what other big movies like Grinch did for that week right after (Thanksgiving). Our percentage drops are similar to Monsters, Inc. And if you look at all that, it really comes down to how much repeat business we get through Christmas and New Year's."
Warners should also get some help from this year's calendar. "Christmas this year falls on a Tuesday and that is great," Goldstein said. "Christmas and New Year's (both are Tuesdays) and that gives us that extra long holiday weekend two weeks in a row. That's much better than what we've had the last couple of years. When you get a Tuesday or a Thursday (for Christmas and New Year's Day) you really hit pay dirt because people turn that into a long holiday."
As to how far Harry flies in domestic theaters, Goldstein added, "We just have to wait the next couple weeks and see how strong the repeat business is. We hear from theater owners all throughout the world that kids are coming back in droves (because) they love the movie."
Meanwhile, Warners has a highly anticipated opening this Friday (Dec. 7) in Ocean's Eleven at 2,500-plus theaters. Insiders expect Ocean's to be one of the holiday season's top box office success stories. Directed by Steven Soderbergh, Ocean's' extensive cast includes such stars as George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Julia Roberts.
20th Century Fox and Davis Entertainment's PG-13 rated war drama Behind Enemy Lines opened in second place with stronger than expected firepower to an ESTIMATED $19.2 million at 2,770 theaters ($6,931 per theater)
Lines' average per theater was the highest for any film playing in wide release this weekend.
Directed by John Moore, it stars Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman.
"I'm not sure it's better than we thought we would, but it sure is better than anybody else thought," Fox distribution president Bruce Snyder said Sunday morning, referring to the strong opening. Many of those focusing on Hollywood's advance radar screen had anticipated Lines to kick off to $13-15 million.
What made the difference? "Quality, at the end of the day," Snyder replied.
Some Hollywood handicappers pointed out that Lines played very well in small towns, which tend not to be reflected well in studio tracking studies. "Well, I guess there is truth in that," Snyder said. "The picture worked from the inside of the country out. It was great in small towns. It was great in big towns in the heartland. It worked right across the board."
Any concerns that the post-Sept. 11 climate in America might not be terrific for a war movie were clearly shot down by Lines' successful launch. "We had seen that (that wasn't a factor) as we went through our screening process," Snyder noted. "People were loving the movie. And you know what? Quality at the end of the day does work."
Who was on hand opening weekend? "54 percent male and 54 percent 25 and over," Snyder said, referring to the studio's Friday night exit polls. "The ratings were fantastic. The top two boxes were almost 80 percent. It was overwhelmingly strong. The definite recommends were in the high 60s. So it's not a surprise then (to see so good an opening) when you look at those kind of results."
Universal and Beacon Pictures' opening of the R rated espionage thriller Spy Game held on to third place in its second week with a still solid ESTIMATED $11.21 million (-48 percent) at 2,770 theaters (theater count unchanged; $4,045 per theater. Its cume is approximately $46.9 million.
Directed by Tony Scott and produced by Douglas Wick and Marc Abraham, it stars Robert Redford and Brad Pitt.
"I think that the hold was extraordinary on Spy Game," Universal distribution president Nikki Rocco said Sunday morning. "Usually, if you look at the top five films that do a tremendous amount of business during the Thanksgiving holiday it's become the norm to expect a 50 percent or more drop off, as is evident by the rest of the pack.
"The 48 percent hold I think is exceptional and it could turn out with Sunday's business to be even better than that. We're talking about a film that (last weekend) grossed $30 million ($30.57 million for the five-day Thanksgiving holiday period), which was highly unusual for an adult film to begin with. So I'm very happy about the results this weekend."
Buena Vista/Disney and Pixar Animation Studios' G rated computer animated feature Monsters, Inc. slid two slots to fourth place in its fifth week with a less lively ESTIMATED $9.4 million (-61 percent) at 3,390 theaters (-259 theaters; $2,777 per theater). Its cume is approximately $204.3 million, heading for $260-280 million in domestic theaters.
Directed by Pete Docter, it was co-directed by Lee Unkrich and David Silverman and written by Andrew Stanton and Daniel Gerson.
20th Century Fox's PG-13 rated urban appeal comedy Black Knight dropped one peg to fifth place in its second week with a quiet ESTIMATED $5.7 million (-49 percent) at 2,534 theaters (-37 theaters; $2,249 per theater). Its cume is approximately $23.0 million, heading for the mid-$30 millions in domestic theaters.
Directed by Gil Junger, it stars Martin Lawrence.
20th Century Fox's PG-13 rated romantic comedy Shallow Hal fell one rung to sixth place in its fourth week with a less funny ESTIMATED $4.65 million (-45 percent) at 2,429 theaters (-214 theaters; $1,914 per theater). Its cume is approximately $61.2 million, heading for $70 million-plus in domestic theaters.
Directed by Bobby Farrelly and Peter Farrelly, it stars Gwyneth Paltrow and Jack Black.
Buena Vista/Touchstone and Spyglass Entertainment's PG-13 snowboarding adventure Out Cold fell one notch to a colder ESTIMATED $2.9 million (-36 percent) at 2,011 theaters (theater count unchanged; $1,442 per theater). Its cume is approximately $10.5 million.
Directed by The Malloys, it stars Jason London, Willie Garson and Lee Majors.
Paramount's PG-13 rated thriller Domestic Disturbance slid one slot to eighth place in its fifth week with a dull ESTIMATED $1.9 million (-53 percent) at 1,850 theaters (-536 theaters; $1,027 per theater). Its cume is approximately $42.4 million, heading for $45 million. Directed by Harold Becker, it stars John Travolta.
Rounding out the Top Ten was Franchise Pictures' R rated thriller Heist, released through Warner Bros., down two pegs in its fourth week with a slow ESTIMATED $1.23 million (-61 percent) at 1,252 theaters (-459 theaters; $878 per theater). Its cume is approximately $22.0 million.
Written and directed by David Mamet, it stars Gene Hackman, Danny DeVito and Delroy Lindo.
This weekend also saw the limited release of Dimension Films' long delayed PG-13 western drama Texas Rangers to a dull ESTIMATED $0.3 million at 402 theaters ($746 per theater).
Directed by Steve Miner, it stars James Van Der Beek and Dylan McDermott.
Alcon Entertainment's R rated period piece drama The Affair of the Necklace, released through Warner Bros., kicked off quietly with an ESTIMATED $0.14 million at 18 theaters ($7,555 per theater).
Directed by Charles Shyer, it stars Hilary Swank.
There were no national sneak previews this weekend.
On the expansion front this weekend saw Paramount Classics' R rated romantic comedy Sidewalks of New York widen in its second week to a soft ESTIMATED $0.65 million at 207 theaters (+108 theaters; $3,140 per theater). Its cume is approximately $1.5 million.
Written and directed by Edward Burns, it stars Burns, Rosario Dawson, Dennis Farina and Heather Graham.
Miramax's R rated drama In the Bedroom added a theater in its second week with a still sexy ESTIMATED $0.095 million at 5 theaters (+1 theater; $19,000 per theater).Its cume is approximately $0.24 million.
Directed by Todd Field, it stars Sissy Spacek, Tom Wilkinson, Nick Stahl and Marisa Tomei.
Bedroom expands on Christmas Day to the top 20 markets.
Universal's international division reported that American Pie 2 enjoyed a strong first place launch in Korea this weekend with $0.3 million at 60 screens its first two days. The studio said that was 148 percent bigger than the total for the entire Korean run of the original American Pie.
In the U.K., Pie 2 placed ninth in its eighth week with $0.1 million at 90 screens, bringing its cume there to $25.9 million.
Pie 2's international cume to date is a terrific $106 million with 11 countries still to open, including Australia and Spain next weekend.
Universal said its international cume for The Fast and the Furious is $59 million with three countries still to open. The studio also reported that Bridget Jones's Diary's international cume hit an impressive $203 million this weekend.
Key films — those grossing more than $500,000 — took in approximately $86.83 million, up about 3.23 per cent from the comparable weekend last year when key films grossed $84.12 million.
This weekend's key film gross was down about 42.7 percent from the $151.54 million Friday-Sunday portion of this year's Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

The top two films one year ago grossed $41.5 million. This year, the top two films grossed an ESTIMATED $43.3 million.

I don't think the bullying analogy ["In Defense of Foie Gras," Letters, July 6] is relevant, because humans can be too conflicted to always make the simple, sensible choice. Note the stories about battered significant others who return to their tormentors, sometimes at the cost of their lives. Even if all the fowl facts were true, it still doesn't justify the production of foie gras. There's a crucial difference between spontaneous "hyperphagia" and foie gras feedings: who makes the choice to overeat. Since the birds are obviously capable of overeating with their own beaks, having a tube stuck down their throat and food poured down it is clearly not their choice.
Many birds and mammals include "hyperphagia" as part of their normal annual cycle of life. Sometimes it's an adaptation to the common "feast or famine" availability of fresh food. Sometimes it's done at particular phases of the migration cycle. Humans are adapted to the feast-or-famine cycle, because it's only relatively recently that we got really good at food preservation (no, agriculture is not required). Our obesity epidemic started when we got rid of the famine part.
Since ducks and geese are prey to some other birds, and a number of mammals, etc, they don't get "left to their own devices" very long at one time in a natural ecosystem. It's hard to pig out when some other critter is trying to catch and eat you. Like many humans in our sedentary, sheltered society, they haven't adapted to it.
Unlike some foie gras opponents, I'm a die-hard omnivore, not a vegetarian. But I'm also an opponent of domestication of plants and animals, and the choice thing is part of it. Denial of choice to another creature is a type of mental cruelty.

A few weeks ago, I posted about my latest MAC lipstick purchase. For those of you who didn't see it, I treated myself to their stunning Lady Danger shade. It is such a strong and stunning colour. It's the perfect shade for this season!
Over the weekend I was sorting through my make up boxes and drawers when I came across a little nestle of MAC lipsticks that I had forgotten about.
It was like finding gold. I love it when that happens! I actually couldn't believe how many lipsticks, liners and glosses I had put away and forgotten about.
I have a certain number of colours that I work with and I tend to buy them in different shades. Although, there are times when I'm feeling a little restless and want to play round with me look.
I pushed my beauty boundaries a year or so ago and purchased this fabulous limited edition WonderWoman lipstick.
At first, I was a little nervous when I saw the end result. Worn with MAC's fantabulous gloss, it's quite shocking, but, I love the combination of the two colours mixed together!
As always, I start by applying my trusty primer and then I pencil in my lips using a dark plum shade called, Currant.
The lipstick shade that I bought is called, Spitfire. At first it doesn't look too vibrant, but, once I apply my Funtabulous gloss, it's pops!
It's always good to try out something new. Let me know what you all think! 🙂

Once the tax payer flow is found,
The project runs the institution into the ground,
As inefficiency becomes the lazy way
To support bad actors to be professional in the officious, elaborate play
Which needs five years to steal money in the self-righteous scheme
Which is monetarily self-realizing, but otherwise an empty dream.
The beneficiaries need five years, because the tax payer flow
Takes five years to drain before the tax payers know
They are being robbed, and when the voice of anti-corruption speaks
It is labeled racist, for daring to say, "Five years? We can do this in five weeks!"
The college imparts no practical knowledge, and the vast debt
Accumulated by students who can't find jobs will create more racism, yet.
The adjuncts are paid nothing, and the overpaid deans know what to say:
"Our college is devoted to progress! Progress against all the racism today!"
In urgent meetings, more five year plans are planned, to please
The activist wives of deans who read books by government connected trustees.

Cardio exercises are a hotly debated topic lately. Are your detractors and those who worship him are. Our view is that regular aerobic exercise is very important for your health and your fallout. However it is not possible to live on only aerobic exercise as many claim.
The cardio has its place in any fitness program, but not alone. So your aerobic exercise should be part of a complete program without exemption also includes strength training and a healthy diet.
The key to losing fat and maintaining a healthy weight are strength exercises. The muscle you gain through this form of exercise is the driving force behind a metabolism in good condition. It is also a way for your body to burn more calories at rest.
The problem with strength movements is that men and women think that the results of doing so are large muscles and heavy like the ones you see in the bodybuilding magazines. Nothing is further from reality, there is no possible way to develop muscles so unless you have a good dose of steroids, many supplements and many, many hours in the gym every day.
So, to really speed up your metabolism and shed body fat once and for all there is no substitute for strength training weights, calisthenics , elastic bands, etc. It's the kind of exercise that less is considered when starting a weight loss plan by the belief that muscle gain and will not help you lose weight. But that is not, and but read what follows.
Muscle burns fat. Not directly, but it does. The more muscle tissue you have (that does not mean you'll look inmens have less fat. The reason for this is the muscle helps burn calories even hours after doing a dumbbell exercise. Who do dumbbells for weight loss have less fat than those who only do cardio to get it.
The muscle changes your body structure. Want a slim body, good posture and an athletic look? Then think of weight loss by incorporating a weight program. If you only do cardio or diet can make you look smaller encoded, but chances are that your body continues the same way, on a smaller scale. The best way to change this is through weight training. Doing so will strengthen, reaffirm, tone up and improve your muscles, and the overall appearance of your body.
The muscle improves your health in countless ways. Strength Exercise increases bone density, can help fight diabetes, strengthen the heart and to be free of the symptoms of arthritis. It also improves overall immune system.

Susan Abad in Bogota
The vulnerable ecosystems thousands of Colombia's campesinos and indigenous communities live in – from glacier-fed river valleys to the jungle – are especially at risk to climate change, and with the trend far advanced, the country is opting for adaptation.
Now, these communities are teaming up with government agencies and scientific institutes, sometimes with their own ancestral teachings, to prevent some of the worst impacts extreme weather, such as droughts, torrential rains and floods, can have on their crops and livelihoods.
Elzbieta Bochno, of the Agriculture Ministry's office of Technological Development and Health Protection, said that the government is analyzing on 47,000 hectares of land in 14 projects better alert and monitoring systems of the effects of climate change, as well as methods to save water and improve animal health.
Bochno added that the government is also putting a food safety network into place, along with green farming methods.
Pilot program
But the communities themselves are starting to adapt, says Piedad Martín, a climate change and energy expert at the United Nations Development Program's Colombia office, which along with the UN Food and Agriculture Office, UNICEF and the Pan-American Health Organization is directing a program with five indigenous communities and 12 campesino groups along the Cauca River in southern Colombia.
In La Calera, along the Blanco River near Bogota, residents are growing other species of fruits, potatoes, "that are more resistant and less vulnerable to those climate impacts," said Ricardo Lozano, director of the Hydrology, Meteorology and Environmental Studies Institute, or IDEAM, a governmental office.
He said that many campesino farmers are giving up some of their land so the community can conserve and repair areas of the river basins where they live that have been affected by climate change and subsequent extreme weather patterns.
On the islands of San Andres, Providencia and Rosario, the local population is storing enough water to supply half of the community's daily needs, Lozano added.
Traditional knowledge at work
Ancestral teachings have been fundamental for some adaptation initiatives.
"With its traditional knowledge, the community is saving seeds, especially potato and corn, which allows them to have more diversity because even if they grow one or two varieties today, in the future, in other climate conditions … they could have the option to vary their crops," said Martín.
John Bejarano, director of the Colombian Biocommerce Fund, a nonprofit umbrella group that provides funding for environmental initiatives, said: "Prehispanic crops like maca, amaranth and quinoa not only have ancestral and nutritional value, but also they are robust crops that resist climate change and have a great adaptability than a foreign species." "They are a good substitute for other crops that are more fragile and vulnerable to climate change," he added.

The quick-service restaurant (QSR) chain reported revenues of $319.6 million and earnings per share of 68 cents compared to analysts' expectations of $329.4 million and 61 cents.
While systemwide sales increased by over 3 percent during the quarter, Dunkin' CEO David Hoffmann said in an earnings conference call that the company's comp store sales remained flat. Hoffmann called the comp sales result disappointing, but noted that "overall sales accelerated out of the quarter." He also acknowledged that the company's espresso product relaunch might have impacted short-term sales, but said "we knew it was the right thing to do for our franchisees, crews and our customers."
To help bring coffee quickly to its consumers through convenient offerings, Hoffmann said the company is teaming up with Grubhub for a delivery pilot that connects directly with its point of sale (POS) systems. "Grubhub is No.1 in the delivery space, and we're excited to add them to our list of high-quality partners," Hoffmann said of the partnership. He added that the company was beginning with a small pilot before eyeing an expansion to a bigger market test going forward.
Hoffmann also noted that Dunkin' was looking to make its app more convenient, with two completed app refreshes last year, and also aims to simplify its on-the-go ordering process. But he added that "there is tremendous power still to be tapped from our digital platform, with mobile orders at 3 percent of transactions." Hoffmann noted that the company's CardFree acquisition means Dunkin' can be more flexible and faster to market with digital initiatives.
In addition, Hoffmann said the company's franchisees opened 392 net new restaurants around the world during the quarter, including 278 locations in the United States. He also said the company more than doubled its first goal of 50 Next-Gen restaurants, ending the year with 130 new and renovated Next-Gen locations across the country.
The Espresso Relaunch
For the espresso relaunch, Hoffmann said the company put new espresso machines in more than 9,000 stores at a fast clip, and also "trained more than 100,000 crewmembers on both the equipment and the new product builds." He added that the company created a robust marketing plan, but decided to have a purposefully light marketing calendar to prepare for Thanksgiving week, when espresso "hit the airwaves."
Hoffmann noted that espresso drives a premium basket when compared to transactions for drip coffee, and also skews toward younger consumers. Since the product's rollout in late November, he noted that espresso grew 200 basis points as a percentage of overall sales mix. Hoffmann said that going forward, "we believe having a compelling espresso offering sets us up for long-term success by strengthening our beverage portfolio."
Beyond espresso, Hoffmann noted that the company's consumer packaged goods (CPG) business saw 5 percent retail sales growth last year, signed four new retail licensing deals and added more than 20 new stock-keeping units (SKUs).
Ice Cream Expansion
Hoffmann said that Dunkin' is aiming to make its Baskin-Robbins brand more accessible to consumers through a focus on take-home packaged ice cream and expansion of delivery. To further that aim, the company continues to expand its DoorDash partnership. The company now has delivery in more than 70 percent of its Baskin' U.S. stores, which represents a 40 percent increase in coverage year over year.
Hoffmann also said the company is preparing to open its second "Moments store" in Texas "in the next few weeks." First launched in Fresno, California, Hoffmann said that "the store design offers a more modern experience, showcasing our high-quality products in a more premium way." The aim of the concept is to allow diners to create memorable moments with friends and loved ones. In the call, Hoffmann said he was looking forward to a "national rollout of the new store design later on this year."
The September 2020 Leveraging The Digital Banking Shift Study, PYMNTS examines consumers' growing use of online and mobile tools to open and manage accounts as well as the factors that are paramount in building and maintaining trust in the current economic environment. The report is based on a survey of nearly 2,200 account-holding U.S. consumers.

Standing Buddha at Takiap Hill in Hua Hin | Hua Hin, Thailand | As I mentioned in my previous post, most of these hills in Huan Hin house a temple and a Buddha statue, and Takiap Hill has of course its own, the Standing Buddha. The main characteristic that makes this image so attractive, other than its size, is the location and surroundings.
Beautiful image of Buddha, ruling the views of the Gulf of Thailand and the beaches of Hua Hin. Right on the water, as you can see from my video, surrounded by local markets and improvised restaurants serving the fresh fish and see fruits of the day.
So pay a visit to the Standing Budhha. It is only 10 minutes from Hua Hin downtown and most hotels or resorts. You will get great panoramic views of Hua Hin beach, and do not miss exploring around the Fishermen Village, specially in the morning when the return for their fishing trips and you can see them collecting and working on their fishing nets.

Comic Hit List: Deadpool #46
It looks like the merc with a mouth has some new competition…himself! Well sort of…since we last left Deadpool he just got away from a crazed stalker who kept his old chopped off body parts (from various points of Deadpool's adventures) in a freezer. After the story arc (Deadpool #41-44) the body parts were tossed into one big trash bag and into the dumpster. But it looks like there's some life left in these bits and pieces which combined and formed together to form what I like to call Evilpool a hodgepodge Frankenstein without the moral compass which the original Deadpool has recently gained.
What started off as a great idea pretty much tanked in this current issue. Evilpool began as the old death, mayhem, and destruction version of the D to the P we all knew and loved before becoming the marketable phenomenon that we now know. But now Evilpool like scrambled eggs left out in the cold has lost much of his appeal as he becomes pretty much the same exact clone of the current Deadpool and the dynamics between the two characters have devolved into a Tom and Jerry-esque one upmanship with one another.
Writer Daniel Way (Spider-Man's Tangled Web and Ghost Rider) introduced some pretty interesting ideas in issue forty five but has since then jumped the shark. It's kind of a shame too because Evilpool had quite a bit of potential there. Call me crazy but somewhere along the way Deadpool seems to have lost his edge, that special something that set him apart from most of the other conventional comic book characters. While I'm not expecting Deadpool to become a serious thinking man's title I was also not looking for a completely slapstick cartoon ride (but every once in a while it's ok, just don't over do it). Well that's just my two cents, take it or leave it.

SHORTLY before noon on a hot July day in 1857 passengers crowded the wharf at the foot of Beach Street, New York, as the steamer Arago of the French Line prepared to sail for Havre. Porters were struggling aboard with trunks, stewards bustling about, visitors saying goodbye, hawkers selling conveniences. Amid the throng suddenly appeared the tall figure of ex-Senator Fish, escorting his wife, his four elder daughters, and his three sons--a group ranging in years from nineteen to six. A nursemaid carried the baby, Edith, now fifteen months old. Numerous friends had come to take leave of the "Governor," and Fish was cordially greeted by Captain Lyons of the Arago. At noon precisely, the sun blazing down on banks of waving handkerchiefs and parasols on decks and wharf, the ship moved into the channel. At two o'clock, with a squall coming up, it was outside Sandy Hook.1 Fish was off for at least a year of European travel.
He had taken leave of politics with relief. An autobiographical fragment tells us2 that he had left the Senate "with the full determination that I would not again enter into public or active political life." For fifteen years he had been almost continuously in office. "If public offices are to be regarded as honors, I felt that more than any merit of mine could claim had been most generously bestowed; and if they are to be regarded as duties and as service, that having given so long a period of the best and most active years of my life I had served out my time, and was entitled to a discharge." In letters to friends he confessed some resentment that Seward, Thurlow Weed, and other leaders had shelved him because of a mere political bargain. One of these letters shortly came to Weed's notice, and he wrote to Fish protesting that he had always wished him kept in the Senate, and had taken no part in the manoeuvres that defeated him. But Fish realized that he was as ill-fitted for practical politics as he was well-equipped for administration or diplomacy.
He was specially ill-attuned to the political world of the latter fifties. As late as 1853 the pacific spirits of Clay and Webster had still ruled____________________

Rockstar Games will be implementing a myriad of changes to the Red Dead Online beta in the latest update. You can look forward to a slew of different improvements, including changes to player visibility, bounties, and daily challenges. Some of them might make it easier to survive, as one will help you pick up on potential enemies! All of this and more will be found when the update rolls around on February 26, 2019.
There have already been some important changes made with the past updates. It seems that Rockstar will continue their commitment to make their game the best it can be. Firstly, there will be changes to how player visibility will work. Based on feedback from the community, Rockstar will be reducing the visibility of blips over long distances in order to minimize destructive player behavior. Your position won't be displayed to other players unless you're within 150 meters of them.
With that, aggressive players will also be more visible and will show up on the mini-map as a dot that progressively turns from blue to dark red. The dot's color will change depending on how frequently you perform bad deeds, such as attacking and killing other unprovoked players.
Aside from player visibility, Rockstar will also be introducing Posse-wide Parleys and improving Feuds. You'll be able to initiate a Parley that applies to an enemy's entire Posse, instead of just one person. You will also be able to challenge an opponent to a Posse Feud or Leader Feud that will result in a bite-sized deathmatch.
You'll find changes to the way bounties work. Most notably, you'll see the implantation of NPC bounty hunters who will attempt to take you out if you've racked up a high bounty. You bounty will be determined by the crime, so if you murder other players, you'll be worth a lot more than if you simply loot someone or cause a disturbance.
The update will add a variety of Daily Challenges, too, which will allow you to complete objectives that will reward you with XP or gold. They can be as simple as selling items, hunting animals, winning Feuds, or even clearing hideouts of enemies. Rockstar has noted that these challenges will continue to evolve over time.
Those are some of the things Rockstar has planned for the update on February 26th. The company will have more details pertaining to the update next week.
Are you still playing Red Dead Redemption 2? Let us know if you'll be jumping back into Red Dead Online when this update goes live.

Cass and Ali have a heart to heart through masks in a biohazard room. SARS is fun!
August 4th, 2009:
No More Excuses
Bat Country Labs
The clinic is, thankfully, largely unpopulated with patients, this early afternoon. There's one bedraggled young girl with her mother getting a once over from one of the nurse-attendants; vaccinations and general check-up from the look of things. It's leasurely. Non-emergency. Relaxed. A respite from the usual.
The labs aren't meant for long occupancy, no, but they do have that back room; a brand-new, handlettered "BIOHAZARD - SERIOUSLY!" sign has been stuck on the door, and the one way lock is from outside in. The employees and volunteers here have taken the protocols that were hurriedly put in place the evening before very seriously.
Inside, a certain DJ has finally shed her boots, and is simply cocooned in blankets. Despite doctor's orders, she's gotten rid of the plasticky mask and its O2 delivery; a moment's defiance that has her coughing miserably and as feverish as the case studies say. 102 and rising, the nurses say.
Unfortunately, last report? She didn't eat dinner, for whatever reason. She has, apparently, been digesting a textbook on simple biology; the first thing someone grabbed when she asked for something to read. A few pages at a time, when opportunity strikes.
Ali may have gotten rid of the mask for now, but that will be subject to change. Slowly, Cass is wading through the test results and making sure that everyone who had the slightest contact with Ali is feeling alright and not contracting any symptoms. So far, they're alright. It seems they really dodged a bullet. Pulling on the proper equipment to go visiting, the clinic head gets the proper shot and a tray with a sandwich and some water on it. Not high dining fare, but you take what you can get in a medical facility. It's better than hospital food!
Past the biohazard signs and into Ali's room, Cass sets the tray down on a nearby surface and frowns. "If you don't eat this and put your mask back on, I'm going to tell Jack on you." A fate worse than death.
".. Hey." Ali looks up, blearily. Coughing once. "Huh? Oh. no. Don't. He's already gonna be pissed enough." she reaches out to fumble with that mask, voice very hoarse and rough; the food isn't paid much attention to. Besides. Hard to eat through a mask, right?
But she /does/ move to sit up, "What time izzit? I need to get Gene to run the tapes." One track mind, this one. And.. perhaps not /quite/ as focused as she seems. "Is Elena okay? She was comin' home. I got a .. you know. Thing for her." She makes an absent gesture. "Fruit. Figured she'd like it."
It may be hard, but Cass will expect it of Ali. Food is needed for a speedy recovery. Snagging a chair, she drags that over so that she can sit comfortably to talk with the DJ. "Take a few breaths and then take a bite," she explains to the woman. She'll sit here and watch to make sure the woman does it. "We've been running some tests and you're dangerously malnourished."
Quickly, she pushes the woman back so that she doesn't sit up. "I don't know. We're on lockdown at the moment. I'll radio later to check in on them. But, we have to have a /very/ serious talk about what you're doing to yourself." Frowning through her mask, she watches the DJ. "You're killing yourself, Ali. And if you think that helps Jack and the Saints, then you're crazy."
And the move to sit up is definitely abortive. Ali sighs, "m' not that sick." But the notion of /killing herself/, well. That causes protest. "m' not." The sandwich is eyed, and eventually started in on - a bite's worth. It's something.
"Gotta make sure they're alright, s' all. Not jus' them." It's defensive - "S' a lot of people that need 't more than me. Homeland's gonna catch me anyway, one day. What difference 's it make?"
A random thought occurs, in that. "M' really sorry. Prime was s'pposed ta take me to one of the safehouses. Wasn't s'pposed to get around you and the kid."
"Are you done with the excuses now?" Cass waited patiently until Ali was spoken what she has needed to say until the doctor speaks up. "You know, I've noticed you've been sort of thin lately and I haven't said anything because we're all getting leaner. But you're lacking in just about all the vitamins and protein that you need to just keep going. You're lucky that Prime got you to me this quickly so we could get you oxygen or treatment because the way your body is, your immune system is not strong enough to fight back anything. Even in this early stage, the virus would have killed you if they'd have taken you to a safehouse. They don't have what they need to treat something like this." Bat Country, however, is ready for everything, even apocalypse.
"You know what, you may be able to tell that crap to Jack and Prime, because they can't see the test results, but you're not about to be able to fool me. If you do not eat, Ali, you will die. You aren't just /sick/ you're /starved/. I take that very seriously and if I hear you say other people need to eat more than you, I will not be responsible for my actions. I've lost enough people in this war to lose another because she was too blind to see what she was doing to herself."
"I.." And Ali pulls that sandwich in close, her eyes closing. She huddles into those blankets, there - hard truths, perhaps, are the worst when they're thrown at you directly. It's perhaps predictable, how small she gets, as Cass's words strike home.
"I can't fight. I tried learning - guns scare the crap out of me." Very quiet, around a cough. "I'm no doc. I mean.. I talk. And I keep hoping they'll come after me instead of everybody else. A target. About the only thing I /can/ be." She takes another bite of sandwich, chewing. "I .. don't.. Just." She offers, softly. "I'll try to remember? I just don't think about it."
After having done her scary doctor routine, Cass softens slightly. Because this isn't just a patient, it's her friend. "You don't have to fight to be of use. I still can't do much, either." Sure, she can shoot Peter in the leg at close range. But, any other sort of fighting still has her at a loss. She just sort of wings and makes sure that she's out of the way when necessary. "And you /better/ stop talking like that. You're not just a target. You're the voice of the Resistance. And that's extremely important. We can't let them rule the air. Other people have to know that there are others out there fighting and helping people. It's not hopeless. You saw Good Morning Vietnam, right?"
"You'll remember. I'll make sure that you eat while you're here and I'm certainly going to make sure that you eat once you leave." How she'll do that is up to speculation. "We don't have time for people to feel sorry for themselves any more. Everyone's useful just by being alive and fighting back however they can. If you're a target, I can't let you be my babysitter any more."
"Hey.. now that's not fair." Ali protests, giving Cass a /look/. "That's the best part of my week, most of the time. And you guys deserve the day off." But she frowns - "Sorry. I just.. I know."
Wryly, she goes to sit up again, coughing once - and yes, another bite of that sandwich fortifies the trip. "Sometimes I whine. One day I'll kinda figure out how not to. I promise. No bringin' the blue lights here. Just - I keep wishing I could /do/ somethin'. More."
Good, she's eating. That is enough of a kick start for now. "Just keeping you in perspective." Honestly, she is. When Ali attempts to sit up again, she raises an eyebrow but doesn't say anything just yet. She shouldn't be exerting herself too much what with her low nutrition and SARS. "There's no harm in whining every now and then. I just had a kid, so I'm kind of steeling myself for the time when she can do that all day. Just, as long as the whining doesn't get in the way of what needs to be done. There's a lot you could do, Ali, and already do. If you're feeling like you need to do more, well, what you need to do is eat, get better, regain your strength, and then talk to Jack so something can be tailor suited to you. Your powers /certainly/ could be useful in getting everyone in and out of a situation safely. You wouldn't even have to shoot a gun."
She does it. Whether it's raw willpower or just a desperate /need/ to get upright, well. There are reasons to accomplish anything.
"I will. I guess. When he's not slammed. Seems like there's always, you know. Something." Nom. Sammich. Odd. It's as though a couple of bites in, those bites change to /wolfing/, as though remembering that, yes, she /is/ hungry. That sammich? Not lasting long.
"Cass? What happens if he does it? Peter. I know you know - Jack … well. What happens if he pulls it off? To us? To everybody?" She coughs into that mask, for a moment, barely breathing. It makes the question take a bit longer than it perhaps should - her eyes closing. "Ow."
When Ali starts to cough and have trouble breathing, Cass quickly takes up the needle and takes the DJs arm to inject the medicine that she needs to start getting better. The sandwich will be replaced in a little while, but not so much that Ali could completely stuff herself. That'd be bad for her stomach. "There'll always be something, so just take a minute or two to talk to him." Or Cass will do it for Ali. Even after all these years, she's still a meddler.
As for Peter, well, she's been trying not to think about it. Trying not to figure out what that might mean for all of them. "Then this all becomes a bad dream." That's all she can figure out.
"Yeah?" Ali doesn't even wince at the stick. She just … well. Call her a good patient, at least.
"It's not, you know. All bad - yeah, it's not /good/, but.." She pauses. "I mean. Look. Pop threw me out after I told him I didn't believe in God anymore." She smiles, faintly - "You guys - the Saints. You're family. maybe it's not perfect. Hell, I know it's not perfect. I keep hoping you'll let us drag you and Lach and the little one off out of here. But.. I wouldn't trade it. For what it's worth."
The woman coughs again - not quite as bad. "I still get to babysit, right?" That's awful important to her, for some reason.
It's all for Ali's best interest, but Cass tries to make the injection as quick and painless as possible. "No, it's not all bad at all." There's Abby and Lachlan and the Saints. However, that doesn't mean that everything is good. As soon as the needle is out, she quickly puts a thumb down on the spot to quell any bleeding. There's a bit of a wry smile. "Sometimes, I wonder why we're still here, too." It's no place to raise Abigail. "But, I can't just leave you all here. And Lachlan won't go without me." So, it's a Catch 22. "You get better and start eating right, and you'll be babysitting Abby in no time." Not only is it important for Ali, sometimes the parents need a night on their own. Or to just know that Abby is safe while they go out to try and save the world they're in.
"You can. You won't, but you can. I.. I get it. I do. But I keep hoping." Ali leans herself into that corner there - easier to stay upright. "Rumor has it homeland's been around." Even sick. Even now, she's worrying. "Is that the lockdown?"
"I know I can if I need to." Cass drops the needle into a make-shift bio-hazard trash can. It's not safe to just dispose of those things in the regular trash can. "But…" she frowns. "If anything happens to me, you make sure Lachlan gets across with Abby. Knock him out if you have to. I'm not letting Abby be an orphan." And she's already seen what may happen in her future. "Homeland talked to Lachlan about that bug attack on the White House. It's stretching, but we're just trying to take precautions so they don't dig up anything else. That's not the lockdown. Lockdowns to make sure no one spreads the disease to the outside world. The last thing New York needs is a SARS outbreak."
"Yeah. And Erin's still out there." Ali stifles a cough, looking tired. "I'll convince him to go." And.. she will. Too. Give her time. "The hard way, if I have to." She pulls the blankets closer around her, "But nothin's gonna happen to you, Cass. I won't let it. Not to you."
"Jack was picking Elena up last night - " A change of subject seems in order - she supplies it, hoarsely. "Not that I figure there was any, but did you hear anything on the news? They'd be screaming if they caught him, anyway. I was s'pposed to help.." Wry, "You see how that turned out. So now I worry."
"I have a feeling that Prime and his posse are going to take an interest in her." In fact, Cass is almost positive of that. "No, I mean, nothing will. Just in case. We're in a dangerous business." Defying the government and fighting and all that.
"We didn't get any distress frequencies." And if they had picked them up, there certainly would be. Coded, uncoded, something. They'd have heard chatter. "It's better that you're here, though. Don't want to get Elena sick after she just got back. Plus, you certainly need to rest up."
"Yeah. good excuse for that." Ali lets her head go back against the wall - eliciting a quiet *thump*. "Only so much resting I can do before I start fidgeting, though. Hey. That /reminds/ me." Of coughing, apparently, but that passes soon enough. "Do you know a priest?" She pauses. "Not for me. Jack and Trina. I was thinking about seeing, you know, if he had an /excuse/, if he'd ask her." She flashes a wry smile. "Or am I meddlin' too much?"
"Well, we'll bring you some things to take your mind off of it all." Cass smiles, because she knows just how boring it can be to just sit and do nothing. "If I knew a priest, do you think Lachlan and I would still be unmarried?" There's a wry grin through her mask and then she just laughs. "Not personally, but I can ask around. You're talking to a meddler, so, there's no worries there."
"… hey. If you guys need one? Then.. I'll see what I can do. Double wedding works - saves on the cake." Ali smiles behind that mask - a distorted thing, but.. her eyes are warm, even excited. "If I can find a cake. I can find a cake. That'll be the easy part. Tuxes might be harder. I know Candy, though - she'll come /up/ with dresses. Magically, if she's gotta."
The .. Dj. Uh. May be serious.
"Gene's pretty serious about the church thing. Maybe he'll have some clue. Hell, he might /be/ one by now - isn't there that internet site you can do the priest thing on?" But she..abruptly - starts the laborious process of crawling to lay down again. "mmmph. Dizzy."
"Lach and I'll get married once this is over. We'll have a big celebratory wedding right on the White House lawn." Bravado, perhaps, but waiting until the war is over to get married just always seemed like the thing to do. Even after Abby. They're already committed - the wedding will just be a big party for them all to celebrate at.
"I'll talk to him about that," Cass is still smiling through her protective gear. Allowing Ali to lie back down, she does her motherly thing and pulls up the blanket so that it's covering the DJ. "Lay down, nap for a bit. When you wake up, we'll get you some more food." Because she definitely needs to eat some more.
"Yeah. I.. cass?" Ali snuggles into that blanket - yeah. The fever's still there, and high. "thanks. For everything. I mean. Not just this. I owe ya a lot. More n'.." A faint shrug, and she coughs, once, miserably. "Thanks isn't enough to say."
Hence the blanket. Sweating diseases out is still one of the best ways to get them to leave. Oxygen, plus medicine, plus blankets will beat SARS. Cass is sure of it. "Of course. You're welcome." Because the Saints are family, and you help out your family. Even if Ali can't say it all, Cass can pretty much guess what she needs to say. As soon as she's sure that the woman is settled down, she starts for the door.
"… hey. And tell that nurse to quit lookin' at my butt." The blonde lump under the blankets mutters. If there was any doubt she's been hanging around Jack too long? That may lay it to rest.

Barnabas wasn't his given name. His parents called him Joseph. But he had a wonderful gift of encouraging and the other apostles called him Barnabas, which means "Son of Encouragement." (Acts 4:36)
Getting a new name was just the beginning. He and Paul set off on a missionary trip to Cyprus and Barnabas took along his young cousin John Mark. But after the first leg of the trip, John Mark returned home to Jerusalem. (Acts 13:1-13) Mark's leaving in the middle of the trip really annoyed Paul. In fact Paul was so annoyed that on the next trip when Mark wanted to try it again, Paul said, "Absolutely not!" and refused to take Mark with him. But Barnabas saw Mark's potential and insisted that Mark be allowed to accompany them. Barnabas and Paul had a heated argument about this and parted company. Paul took Silas with him and they traveled to Syria and Cilicia. Barnabas and Mark went on their own missionary journey back to Cyprus. (Acts 15:36-41)
You see the blessings of this? Now there are two evangelism teams instead of one! Mark matured into a faithful worker for Christ because of Barnabas' encouragement. The rift with Paul was healed and at the end of his life Paul would write to Timothy: "Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for ministry." (II Timothy 4:11)
Look around! Who can you encourage today? Oh, what blessings will follow your words of encouragement! God bless you on this Saint Barnabas Day.

Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Clockmaker" and "The Scientific Ape": Two Unpublished Fables Ralph Parfect King's College, London ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON'S (1850-1894) hitherto unpublished stories "The Clockmaker" and "The Scientific Ape" have been unaccountably neglected by the author's admirers. Whereas several of his unfinished novels, as well as one early tale that he explicitly disowned, "The Plague Cellar,"1 have at one time or another been deemed worthy of publication, these two entertaining and provocative narratives, both complete but for a planned "Moral" at the end of each, not only have attracted little comment, but appear to have been deliberately omitted from their intended context, Stevenson's Fables (1895).2 This essay presents, contextualizes and suggests datings for the two stories, and considers the possible reasons for their neglect. Unfortunately, little is known about the composition of the Fables, a heterogeneous collection of twenty-two tales.3 All are undated, although external and internal evidence has suggested the outlines of a chronology.4 Some were clearly written as early as 1874, for Stevenson wrote to his friend and mentor Sidney Colvin (1845-1927) in September of that year that "I have done no more to my Fables. I find I must let things take their time. I am constant to my schemes; but I must work at them fitfully as the humour moves."5 Colvin, who later became editor of much of Stevenson's work, including the Fables, guesses that the earliest of them were "The House of Eld," "Yellow Paint," "The Touchstone," "The Poor Thing," and "The Song of To-morrow."6 Further work on the collection must indeed have been fitful, for it was not until 31 May 1888 that Stevenson met with an agent of Longmans, Green, and Company in New York to sign an agreement for the stories' publication. Stevenson's ensuing Pacific travels and eventual settlement in Samoa inspired a 387 ELT 48 : 4 2005 range of new projects that pushed completion of the Fables aside, but he almost certainly added at least two stories during this period, namely "The Cart-Horse and the Saddle-Horse" and "Something In It," which both include the use of Samoan proper names. The last surviving reference by Stevenson to the collection comes in March 1889, when he wrote to Charles Longman from Honolulu to enthuse about his new novel The Wrong Box (written jointly with his stepson Lloyd Osbourne), but added regretfully: "No word of the Fables yet: I have to do some more and the tide has not yet flowed."7 The manuscripts of "The Clockmaker" and "The Scientific Ape," now in the Beinecke Library Collection at Yale University , appear to have originally belonged to a complete fair copy of the Fables that Stevenson made at some unknown point before his death in November 1894.8 No other Fables manuscripts than these two have been discovered.9 In 1895, under a new contract arranged by Stevenson's literary agent Charles Baxter, Longman's Magazine published the Fables posthumously in two installments in the August and September issues ofthat year.10 As Roger Swearingen notes, both installments were signed with Stevenson's name.11 "The Clockmaker" and "The Scientific Ape," however , were missing. These stories were again excluded from the first collection that appeared in book form, bound together with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde on 16 March 1896.12 No subsequent editions of the Fables, of which there have been several, have restored the two tales, in spite of the fact that the pages of the two manuscripts are numbered, respectively , "15-19" and "22-25," strongly suggesting that the author wished them to be part of a series.13 Who, then, removed the two stories, and why? The decision was almost certainly made by Sidney Colvin in preparing the text of the Fables for Longman's Magazine.14 As his selective editorship of Stevenson's Letters would later reveal, Colvin was often willing (though at times apologetically so) to suppress portions of his late friend's work.15 As for why the two stories were excluded, the closest that Colvin comes to giving an explicit reason is his remark, in an introductory...


text: ArkieFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2005 How much does the color of your fly line affect your catches? I have a 5wt with orange line and another with yellow. I seem to do better with the yellow, but still have more problems than I do with a 6wt with dull green fly line. I use a 7.5' leader with at least 18" of 4X tippet. I know I'm going to change colors when I change fly lines if at all possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make the outside reflect the inside with Icon. With over 15 years of combined industry experience, Icon Roofing have cultivated a reputation throughout Bondi for offering quality metal roofing installation, repair, and restoration solutions. We pride ourselves on our reputation of reliability and dedication, qualities we bring to every single job that we do. We offer a range of metal roofing services to businesses and residents throughout the Bondi area, including installation, restoration and repairs.
Metal roofs are becoming an increasingly common sight in the streets of Bondi, here are three of the major advantages this roofing option has to offer:
One of the most long-lasting and durable material options on the market, a metal roof installation today has an expected lifespan of between 40 and 70 years. The seamless way this roofing is installed means that it is incredibly watertight, weatherproof, and disperses water both quickly and evenly.
A highly adaptable material, this roofing comes in an enormous range of colours and designs. Because many different metals (zinc, aluminium, copper, galvanised steel etc.) can be used as roofing materials, there is a product to suit every budget.
Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency and sustainability is a major consideration when selecting building materials, and metal is a material option which satisfies both of these categories. Because this material is reusable, our installation and repair services can be conducted using entirely recycled materials. A metal roof will help you keep your energy bills low, as the material reflects sunlight, ensuring your home stays cooler for longer.
If you would like any more information on the range of installation, restoration, and repair services we offer throughout Bondi, contact Icon Roofing on 0428 204 046.

Latest Updates
I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day week-end. I am happy to report finally that Remi is out of the hospital and spent the holiday week-end with his Family. I decided to wait a little longer before reporting his progress since every time I did it before, he was right back in ICU within a couple of days. The Specialists and I both feel positive about him being able to sustain himself now that the worst is over. He is on light exercise and is to be kept calm for the next month. After that, if his bloodwork is back to normal, he can begin to be his normal happy self, running and playing. We are cautiously optimistic and still praying a lot for him.
Remi's bills were higher than you could ever imagine. He spent almost three weeks in ICU fighting for his Life and had over a dozen transfusions. He is alive today because of the Specialists being on top of his medical care every step of the way. He had a team of Specialists working on him 24-hours a day during that time. On top of all that, he needed a constant supply of blood every day. We are still working on paying down our bills from his stay. Please, donate anything you can so we can help more abused animals. I was going to say, "So we could help more dogs like Remi." That is something I never want to experience again.
I also want to remind everyone that we are doing our best to not bombard you with e-mails all the time. We are posting almost daily on our Facebook page. If you don't want to get updates from Facebook, then please check out our FB page daily to see what is happening in the World of Noah's Arks Rescue. We post Adoption Events, updates on new Adoptive Families, dogs ready to be adopted and how the ones are doing that are still receiving medical care. If that doesn't work for you, we are always here to answer any of your questions. All you have to do is drop us a note at, [email protected], and we will get back to you as soon as we are able. Thanks for all the help with our pups. None of this would be possible without your unwavering support.
