What to remember about The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel before starting season 3
- TV Show
With the turn of our decade, The Marvelous Maisel is bringing about the turn of their own in season 3. Midge, Susie, the Maisels, and the Weissmans are returning to the small screen in an age of cultural revolution: the '60s.
Perhaps as Tony Shalhoub previously pointed out to EW, it's fitting because the rapid-talking, memorable cast are all evolving in different ways. But before bingeing Maisel 3.0 when it drops on Amazon Prime tomorrow, make sure you remember what happened in all those cliffhangers.
From career moves to personal ones, here are the five things you need to remember about where Midge and company left off at the end of season 2.
That Awkward Reveal
There are many ways that Midge Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan) could have relayed to her father that she was a closet stand-up comic, but it went the absolutely worst way: He unknowingly attended one of his daughter's gigs in the Catskills and locked eyes with her when she was joking about her parent's sex life. Not long after, Midge told her mother too and things got complicated. There was a beacon of hope in season 2 episode 9 when Abe beheld his daughter's talents on a telethon. The Weissman family may not be entertainers, but there's some hope Abe will start to come around.
That Fresh Start
In general, the world Abe once knew changed rapidly in season 2. Besides learning of his daughter's secret occupation (and his son's as an analyst for the C.I.A.), the Weissman patriarch quit his cushy jobs at Columbia and Bell Labs in favor of his own path to self-discovery.
"He realizes that the ground beneath his feet is not only shifted, it's fallen away. And so that has caused him to reevaluate everything, every corner of his world and his existence," Shalhoub previously mused to EW. "So that's catapulting him to what we discover in season 3. But it's not a clear path before him — it's got all kinds of twists and turns and uncertainty and possibly nothing, possibly failure and the end of the line for him."
Unfortunately, along with finding himself, Abe has to find another source of income and a place to live since Columbia was funding his family's luxurious New York City apartment!
That Return to Old Habits
Midge is finally granted her father's blessing to get engaged to Benjamin (Zachary Levi), the successful surgeon she met in the Catskills who loves her for who she is, but the strong independent comic ends up sleeping with ex-husband Joel Maisel (Michael Zegen). Granted, Joel has come a long way since freaking out about his former spouse's calling, and a return to a previous flame doesn't mean Midge will take a step back in her career or personal growth.
"People always ask whether I'm Team Benjamin or I'm Team Joel, and I always answer that I'm Team Midge," Brosnahan previously told EW. "I personally don't necessarily believe that you have to choose between a personal and professional life. That's an idea that a lot of people, men and women alike, still embrace."
That Big Step
In the season 2 finale, Midge got another potentially life-changing proposal. But this one didn't involve marriage. Sauve superstar singer Shy Baldwin (Leroy McClain) phones Midge to propose she open for him on his U.S. and European tour, "with a lot of fancy clothes" that he has offered to pay for. Without even consulting her agent Susie Myerson (Alex Borstein), Midge agrees to embark on this career-launching, six-month tour with Baldwin. But these venues are no Gaslight. They are the big time. So big, in fact, that Brosnahan told EW that they had almost 800 background actors on set for an episode. Besides having to adjust her jokes to a larger and diverse audience, Brosnahan told EW that Midge may have to also expand her mindset when it comes to her tour partner, Baldwin who is an African American in the Civil Rights era.
"Even though he's a huge star and in some ways has transcended the late 1950s relationship to a black man – in a lot of ways he hasn't, he can't. And that's something that Midge will have to wrap her head around," Brosnahan said. "I think that's an idea that she never considered carefully before, that somebody's relationship to the world around them could be so different from her own. And obviously you know we're a comedy, but I think that's certainly something that she gets confronted with."
That New Client
Susie managing a comic besides Midge? This is no joke. Midge's adversary Sophie Lennon (Jane Lynch) offered to pay Susie big bucks to take her on as a client. Put that on your plate! The two sealed the deal — well mostly Sophie did — when Susie was invited to her grandiose estate for tea and then sent on her merry way with one of those thick fur coats. Let's just hope that in season 3, taking on the megastar was not a mega mistake.

Welcome to the Open Enrollment edition of For Your Benefit where you can find out what's new for 2020 while also learning about help for new moms coming back to work, important health observances this fall and more. Let's start with what is changing/staying the same or brand new for next year.
While your Pearson plan options and coverage will remain the same for next year, we are making a change in who can be covered in these plans. Beginning January 1, 2020 we will offer coverage to same and opposite sex domestic partners. To learn more about this offering, click here.
As we do every year, we evaluate the cost of our plans and at this time we share the changes to your per paycheck contributions for the upcoming year. Pearson continues its average contribution of 80% toward the cost of medical coverage while employees contribute 20%, in aggregate. Employees enrolled in the national medical plans (those administered by Anthem, Cigna and Aetna) will see an increase of 6.8% which, on average, equals an $18.53 per month increase. Part-time enrollees in Kaiser will experience an increase of about $25 per month. Delta Dental PPO and Cigna DHMO will increase 1.5% and 5%, respectively. Cost for all other offerings are unchanged for 2020.
An important note for Open Enrollment is that The Health Savings Accounts, Flexible Spending Accounts and Commuter/Parking elections do not transfer over from year to year. If you are participating in any of these accounts, you must make an election for 2020, even if you want to continue the same amount per paycheck for next year.
When maternity leave comes to an end the transition back to work should be as easy as possible for our working moms. That's why, through our partners at LifeCare®, Pearson offers several resources to help with some of the important things. Learn more here about breastfeeding and child care resources offered to you at no cost.
Because Pearson offers so many benefits we can't cover everything in one newsletter, so I encourage you to use all the resources — this newsletter, the Pearson Benefits website and Pearson Benefits Marketplace. You will find the information you need not only for Open Enrollment, but to help you make the most of the many plans and programs available to you throughout the year.
In Good Health,

Optimization Strategy
Subscription Marketing Strategy
Once you know what advertising channels you're using, who you're targeting and how, it's important to optimize your ads and strategy. You will optimize your first campaigns and continue optimizing campaigns as you continue your advertising program.
ad copy
If the customer is further down the buyer funnel, the ad copy should be very specific to the segmented audience, which may be based on where they are in the customer journey. You will likely want to promote your free trial or discounted offer.
For Google ads, talk about the pain points or problems your customer is typing in, and then let them know how your products or services can offer a solution to that problem.
With a small budget, you're most likely going to be split testing 2-3 ad copies to collect enough data within 30 days or so. Headers are expected to have the most impact. Split test everything from the ad text, phrasing (e.g. fun, catchy, negative first, cute, or emotional), benefits, offers, features, unique proposition, etc. It really depends on who your audience is, and that's why you need to split test to understand who your high-converting customer is, and what they like to respond to.
Pause your lowest-performing ad copy (do not edit it!), and replace it with a fresh one that is modeled after the best-performing ad. Be sure not to edit the ad copy if it's low-performing because you do not want to convolute the data when you, or especially when someone else, tries to analyze it.
SOCIAL media ad content
Use informative creatives because social media marketing is stronger for brand awareness. You will likely want to promote your free trial or discounted offer. Alternatively, you can give them the benefits of using your products or services, and then provide a lead magnet to nurture that interest. Ad copies vary because people are not buying on social platforms. You're going to have to collect data as you spread brand awareness. You need to split test various ad copies and pay very close attention to your demographic metrics to get a better sense of who you're high-converting audience segment is.
Always have clear CTA, such as "transform your business today" or "get that advantage over your competition."
Let people know what to expect. Let them know that there's no risk in your CTA, such as "Get Your Free Trial Today."
Also, use success stories as the basis of your social media ad copy. To do so, showcase customer testimonials and quotes. This provides social proof within the ad copy.
Google Ads and Bing Optimization
Advertising your products or services on the Google Display Network can save a lot of money since it's cheaper than the Search Network. A great tactic here is to use video ads.
Remarketing campaigns should showcase customer success stories, an ebook, or a guide (see Lead Magnets in Lead Nurturing). Use Google Ads remarketing lists for search ads (RLSA) to remarket to prospects a second time to a wider set of keywords towards users who were previously retargeted and clicked the ad.
Social Media Advertising Optimization
Use a remarketing campaign to promote customer success stories or a lead magnet. Use a Facebook remarketing campaign on the same retargeted audience, but this time with an offer.
Tip: Personalize the content based on demographics, such as geolocation, job title, buying habits, needs, etc.
Typically, LinkedIn might work better for enterprise-level SaaS businesses and B2B businesses, while Facebook might work better for B2C businesses. Maximize your sign-ups through Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
Use direct sign-ups when you're targeting high-intent keywords, retargeting your audience, you are a well-known brand, or your benefits are clear and your pricing is low.
For LinkedIn, split test different demographics, geolocations, etc., to zoom in on high-converting traffic. Create lead magnets to raise awareness. Create a promotional campaign using these assets. Use InMail offers to remarket users who clicked the ad from the promotional campaign.
Optimizing Facebook, specifically, includes swapping the ad copies, testing the ad copies, and testing the ad sets, as well as creating a custom audience or lookalike audience and continuing to track custom conversions.
Swap Ad Copies: A study was already done, so it's time to swap out ad copies with fresh ones, which is favorable to Facebook's algorithm and will lower the overall cost of advertising. Use a similar theme because you want similar expected results.
Split Test Ad Copies: Same with Google Ads, the importance of split testing ads should be a natural optimization step.
Split Test Ad Sets: Use different segmented audiences to fine-tune and discover the best segmentation that is going to give the right balance between conversions and cost.
Custom Audience/Lookalike Audience: Keep analyzing and making adjustments as needed to increase the performance of lookalike audience targeting and custom audience retargeting based on those who have already visited your website.
Custom Conversions: Keep tracking custom conversions to understand important KPIs of the business. Eventually, after analyzing the data and making performance adjustments for a few months, switch campaign objectives to optimize for conversions. You need to justify this switch after analyzing and optimizing results (or conversions) and cost.
Other Advertising Opportunities
Gmail ads are also worth trying to reach prospects who are being targeted by your competitors.
Paid ads on Quora are cheap since it's still new and your competitors are most likely not using this platform. You can phrase your ad copy in the form of a question.
Sponsor your own product or service on a podcast that relates to your niche or your audience listens to.
ongoing optimization
Allocate your budget to where 80% is focused on high conversion groups, and 20% is towards lower-performing or experimental groups. Make budget, bid, and segmentation adjustments as needed to follow the 80/20 rule (80% budget on results and 20% on experimentation).
google analytics
Pay close attention to website performance because it's as important as Google Ads performance; website performance can refer to load time speed, bounce rate, time per session, etc. One of the most common mistakes businesses make towards digital marketing is wrongfully blaming poor performance on campaigns and advertising—when their website is poorly optimized for conversions. You can bring the highest quality traffic to the website at the lowest cost, but all that doesn't matter if they cannot convert due to the limitations of the website.

And, of course, she's Valiant Entertainment's answer to the all too typical overtly sexual depiction of women in comics.

Review: 'An Age of License: A Travelogue' by Lucy Knisley
Lucy Knisley snatches from the ether bits of ephemeral conversation and other momentary pleasures to present to us, "An Age of License," her latest travelogue graphic novel. We are swept up by a whirlwind European adventure as we follow Knisley on an all-expenses paid trip of a lifetime in September of 2011. As opportunities arise, one must try to choose wisely. And so we see how Knisley fares, after some pre-travel jitters (it happens to the best of us) and she is off and running. Knisley has a clean line in the service of a direct and crisp narrative. It is a pleasure to see her continue to evolve as an autobiographical artist.

This tag will be perfect hanting from raffia on a jar of homemade jelly.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

In the early history of the telegraph, entrepreneurial men and women like David Lechler and P.T. Barnum used the technology to play fairly harmless pranks on their friends and neighbors who were unfamiliar with the machine. By the end of the 19th century, the technology had matured and become a common (and to many essential) part of American life.
As I keep an eye out for reports and stories about misuses of the telegraph , I've noticed more than a few observers from the late 1800s and early 1900s who don't condemn the telegraph outright, but write lurid tales of crime and delinquency where the telegraph plays a central role. Just as they had at the mid-century, telegraphs allowed operators to distort their identity and trick unsuspecting customers who assume messages are legitimate. But now, these critics claim, people were really getting hurt.
One such telegraph critic was Josiah Flynt, a early muckraker and crime writer who was known for his expose on railroad tramps. In his 1900 book The Powers that Prey, a collection of short vignettes of the criminal classes, he depicts the telegraph as a fixture of seedy criminal dens that allowed criminals and undesirables to continue their evil ways away from the watchful eye of decent society:
"One evening, or rather one morning, in May, 189-, in the "Slide," which everybody knows, though that is not its name, a mixed company of men and women were glad that they were young. Therefore they ordered miscellaneous drinks and smoked cigarettes and listened to three "darkies" explain, to the accompaniment of three guitars, that they find the Western Union a convenience no matter where they roam, and that they will telegraph their baby, who'll send ten or twenty maybe, and they won't have to walk back home."
In 1907, Flynt returned to his discussion of the telegraph and its relationship with crime in an interesting piece about the New York dope-shop. It seems that con men were using the telegraph to send the first spam mail: solicitations of horse betting tips to unsuspecting "suckers" who paid handsomely for this information. Flynt was adamant that his stories were based off of his personal experiences undercover in the criminal underworld. "These stories," he wrote, "are not fiction in the ordinary sense…the characters are real and the incidents have all occurred…The stories are intended to point a moral as well as adorn a tale." Below is a excerpt from his article, can you find the moral of this sensational story?
"The dope-shop is one of the fungus growths of the pool-room game. In it's every essential the dope-shop is a confidence game. Between the "form" of racehorses as set forth in publications for that purpose or in the daily papers and in the dope-shop there is the same difference that lies between the advice of a reputable broker in stocks and the persuasions of the man that works with three shells. The tips published in the daily papers are given to the public for what they are- the guesses of men who make the handicapping of thoroughbreds their business. It may be that even the publication of guesses does not tend to the common good, but it probably will be continued as long as horse-racing is a recognized American institution. The dope-shop, however, is another thing.
The vender of "fake" racing information bases his operations on the worst traits of men. He comes to you with a proposition in effect as follows:
'I know of a certain piece of crooked work to be done in connection with a certain race. There is to be cheating, and I am in with the cheaters. If you will pay me a small fee I will let you in on this crooked deal.'
It seems to matter little that this proposition implies that the person to whom it is addressed is both a knave and a fool. Circular letters carrying this proposition are sent though the mails by the millions annually. They reach every class in the country. They are written with particular reference to their power to induce women to buy tops on "sure things." To the work-weary house-wife who is not able to see the day of leisure in the future after contemplating the meager family income of the present, these promises of from five to fifty dollars for each dollar invested come with irresistible force. For the man who is feverish with desire to do more for his family they are hard to cast aside. These are the men and women, largely, to whom these advertisements are sent.
The biggest list of the dope-shop is the Sucker list. These lists are compiles in a hundred cunning ways and after one dope-shop has worked its list to exhaustion it sells it to another shop or exchanges it for a fresh list of unsophisticated ones. Therefore the person whose name is once on one of these lists continues to receive dope advertisements for years from shops all over the country.
New York is the home of the dope-shop. In that city it was born and in that city it has been brought to its highest state of development. Every other large city in which there is interest in racing has its dope-shop, but in none is the game worked so effectively as in New York. The necessaries of a dope-shop are a manager who can take the last dollar of a widow without compunction, a cheap office, a desk, a Sucker list, a supply of extravagantly worded circulars, and a block of telegraphs blanks. The fee charged ranges from one dollars to ten dollars for each tip sent and from five to twenty dollars for the weekly tip service. To each subscriber who has paid the fee in advance there is sent by telegraph the name of a horse tha the confidence man tells you cannot lose that day. Besides paying for the so-called information you are required to pay the cost of the message. This "information" usually is a guess by the office-boy or by the manager, neither of whom has any closer connection with racing stables than the Suckers to whom the information is sent. There are a few "square" confidence men in this game who send to all their subscribers the name of the same horse on a given day. The majority of them send to subscribers in one city the name of one horse, to subscribers in another city the name of another horse in the same race, and to subscribers in still other cities the names of still other horses in the same race. One of these is reasonably certain to win. In this way the subscribers in the city to which the name of the winning horse is sent are inveigled into buying more dope of the same kind and into playing the information until they have lost hopelessly. So widespread has become this evil that newspapers and racing publications which publish the advertisements of dope-shops have been forced to refuse the advertisements of those who have been caught playing the trick.
There is no way of computing the amount of money out of which the ever-gullible public is swindled in the course of a year in this way, but it runs into millions. One New York dope-shop, which had exceptional good luck in guessing winning horses for several days less than a year ago, was sending more than five hundred telegrams a day to a western city, and each telegram represented an investment by the subscriber of five dollars plus the cost of a despatch. It is probably that this one dope-shop during this streak of good guessing took in not less than twenty thousand dollars a day. During this short period of exceptional good luck the subscribers unquestionably made money "playing the dope," but it was followed by the inevitable period of bad guessing, and all the money won, and more too, was bet away while the Suckers were hoping for a return on their former good luck.
Probably the most remarkable evidence of the complete gullibility of the race-mad public is to be found in the promises mad by the dope-shops. Nearly all of them give their subscribers a "guarantee," which consists of a promise that if the tips sent for one week do not make money for the player, the next week's tips will be sent free. I have never heard of the public accepting such a proposition from any other kind of confidence man. If the information causes the bettor to lose money, no charge will be made for more information that will cause the bettor to lose more money! In truth it seems that the Sucker-a-minute estimate will have to be revised. This dope-shop swindle is the only out-and-out confidence game to which the federal mails remain open."

22nd December, 2019
Two table Tennis players from Federal University of Technology, Owerri detained in Bosnia-Herzegovina refugee camp, have returned home and narrated their ordeal, from the day they were mistakenly arrested by Croatia security and dumped at the Bosnia border.
Abia Uchenna and Eboh Chinedu, both students of Federal University of Technology Owerri(FUTO), returned to Nigeria late on the night of Dec. 20.
The two students were received by the Secretary of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Mr Sule Yakubu Bassi, who represented the Chairman/CEO of NIDCOM, Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa.
The chairman welcomed the students back home and asked them to narrate their ordeal in Croatia, so that some lessons would be learnt from their story and most importantly for Nigerian youths to hear and learn from it.
Uchenna and Chinedu listed among their ordeal while in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina language barrier, harsh and hostile treatment and camp conditions as well as feeding.
They said they were however overwhelmed with joy to be back home.
Dabiri-Erewa also urged Nigerian students to always be of good behaviour wherever they found themselves by obeying the laws of the country they were visiting.
She commended the Federal Government through the Minister of Foreign Affairs Mr Geoffrey Onyeama, the Nigerian Ambassador to Hungary, and all mission staff for the humane and prompt response to the plight of the two Nigerians.
After narrating their nasty experiences in the hands of Croatian authorities, the two students said: "First of all, we want to thank NIDCOM for the kind gesture they have shown us and the citizens of this great country Nigeria when we were passing through the challenges out in the foreign land.
"We want to thank especially Mama Diaspora in the person of Mrs. Abike Dabiri-Erewa.
"She is indeed a mother – someone that Nigerians in diaspora could depend on.
"The way she spoke to us on telephone from Nigeria when we were in camp in Bosnia was very encouraging,
"We cannot thank her enough, she provided hotel accommodation and feeding when we arrived here in Abuja," they said.
They applauded the quick intervention of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nigeria's Ambassador to Hungary, and all Embassy Staff in Budapest.
Uchenna and Chinedu arrived Croatia on Nov. 12, to participate in the fifth World Inter Universities Championship, had visas granting them the right to stay until Nov. 18, 2019.
The Inter-Universities organisation confirmed that the original copies of the visas issued by the Croatian authorities to both students was valid at the time of their detention.
The pair, left Pula for the Croatian capital, Zagreb, after the tournament and were supposed to fly to Lagos on November.L
"The night before our departure, on the Nov. 17, we checked out from the hostel and went for a walk in Zagreb," Chinedu said in an interview.
"Suddenly, we were stopped by the police who asked us for our identification documents.
"We tried to explain that our passports were in the hostel and that we had a regular visa, but they paid no attention to what we were saying ."
The officers allegedly mistook them for undocumented immigrants, put them in a van and transferred them to the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina where, that day, Croatian authorities had gathered a group of migrants who were intercepted as they were attempting to cross into the country.

The confection department consists of three reel cutting machines that allow cutting the film produced by extrusion blow molding to a specific length and width, depending on the customer's requirements. Each of the devices is additionally equipped with perforators, respectively: a hot perforator (rice bags, porridge), two laser perforators allowing the burining of holes in the substrate in size from several to several dozen microns with specified repeatability (microperforation) and perforators allowing to cut holes with a diameter of 6, 8, 10, 12 or 14 mm (macroperforation).
The confection department also includes three sealing machines. Two of them are used for the production of bags on the roll (polyethylene bags with a handle for apples, or simple ones for carrots) of various sizes with possible macroperforation. The third machine, however, allows the production of wicket and simple bags, used in various industries.

In addition to the linguistic differences between the two regions, there are other factors at play in the dispute between Flanders and Wallonia. The separate political structures is one major factor, whereby, for example, a Francophone party could not stand in Flanders and likewise, a Dutch speaking party could not stand for election in Wallonia. Education is separate and cultural/leisure activities including fashion, radio and television all differ due to the regional split. There are no national radio or television stations or newspapers. Even the labour market and marriage figures have been affected by the divide in the past, as people have either not migrated from one area to another for work purposes or married with partners from the opposing region.
Disagreements also occur over the question of Belgian identity as opposed to a Flemish and Walloon identity. Whilst it appears that the Walloons are more inclined to the idea of being Belgian, in Flanders, there has been the emergence of the Flemish separatist party, Vlaams Belang and the N-VA (New Flemish Alliance). They focus on issues such as immigration and social security and indeed, there has been increasing support for the break-up of social security amongst Flemish voters. This has far less support in Wallonia. Interestingly, whilst Wallonia was historically more prosperous than its neighbour, the opposite is now the case. In terms of the monarchy, Flanders has traditionally been more supportive. However, this has now changed and Wallonia appears to give bigger support. The reasoning behind this being that the monarchy in Belgium is seen as a unifying force rather than a divisive one.
The rise of secularity has also had sociological differences within Belgium and although it is a strong Catholic country, voting on religious lines is more noticeable in Flanders than Wallonia. The question of asylum and immigration also features strongly in contemporary Belgium but the argument here is as complex as it is in other areas of Belgian society. Whilst the Flemish may feel threatened culturally, Walloons are more likely to feel an economic threat.
This might paint a bleak picture of total disunity and division but things are not as clear cut as they first seem. During times of national sporting events to take an example, both regions support the Belgium national team and the whole country united en masse when the Belgian monarch died in the early 1990s.
In June 2010, the Belgium election resulted in a caretaker government with the largest party being the separatist, Dutch speaking N-VA, closely followed by the French speaking Socialists, PS-BE, in second place. A full list and analysis of these results is available from: http://electionresources.org/be/. In January, 2011, mass demonstrations took part within Brussels to support the unity of Belgium and to oppose its break up and to demand the formation of a full time government. In early March, 2011, the situation remained the same: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-12618357
Upon the completion of this assessment on April 1st, 2011, there is still no resolution to this political impasse.
This video clip gives a further explanation of the separatist issues that currently exist within the country:
(Of course this is a light hearted poster but it does depict the different attitudes/stereotypes that often exist within Belgium today)

So, I basically took pictures with everybody, like my squad members. We were going to the mall and EREVAN MALL in The Republic of Benin is a very big mall if not the biggest, so yes we couldn't go there in rags or looking like malnourished people.
LOIS et FUNMI [I'm pretty sure you love Funmi's eyes]
LOIS et SAYO [My Squad Partner]. She is also my hairstylist too.
LOIS et SEMI [She's the picture dude like me and the time machine]
Here's the whole squad though, so basically you know the reason why I was absent and it's the holidays, so kindly excuse my off and on nature. I'm also human too.
I'm pretty sure you figured that [et] means [and] that's just French- English translation. Moreover, I'm in a Francophone country, it's high time I start dropping some French lines here.

This paper deals with the investigation in a coal mine where only development work was in progress. Strain measurements were carried out in the side of the pillars, as the galleries were advanced. The maximum strain developed was noticed up to 100 m from the headings. The maximum strain developed was 3 mm/m. In the majority of cases it was below 0.5 mm/m. The magnitude of strains were found to increase and decrease.

The Characters:
Godzilla - A cold blooded and scaly skinned version of the Orkin Man if there ever was one. After being thrown around and hit in the dead center of the back with a large aircraft, the King of Monsters would probably appreciate a chiropractor.
Megaguirus, Meganulas, and Meganurons - I am a little unsure if the species was a mutation or prehistoric insect that arrived on Earth via a wormhole. No matter, because they are officially extinct.
Major Tsujimori - Revenge on a radioactive dinosaur is a dish best served with sake.
Kudo - A royal geek. He likes his women tough, his Mountain Dew warm, and his Snickers cold.
Miss Yoshizawa - Supposedly a brilliant physicist, but I think she is fooling everybody.
Mr. Sugiura - Where would a movie be without a government official hiding some sort of embarrassing secret?
The Plot:
To start the movie off we view scenes from Godzilla's original 1954 rampage through Tokyo. The twist is that they updated the footage, injecting the Godzilla suit from this movie into the old scenes. A truly horrible narrator (in the English version) follows with an overview of the situation as a couple more "updated" scenes play. He tells us that Godzilla, who is wont to trample nuclear power plants, caused a massive investment in natural energy sources in Japan. Wind, sun, and water generate much of the island country's power, though the government yearns for exotic plasma power plants. Unfortunately, if they build one, Godzilla suddenly visits and stomps the place flat.
We are introduced to Tsujimori during one such attack. She is a nervous recruit in a defense unit. The unit attacks the rampaging monster with 84mm rocket launchers, then dashes down side streets to escape his reprisals. As you might guess, this is a good way to annoy Godzilla. Most of the troops quickly become casualties as falling debris land on their grapes (they are wearing helmets, but fat lot of good that does when a ton of cement falls on you). Getting stepped on directly would be even worse, creating a vaguely human shaped smoosh mark.
Anyway, the young soldier is left with psychological scars. Her emotional agony forges her into a Godzilla hating officer in the G-Graspers (the Godzilla defense force).
The problem with Godzilla is that he really does not care what you shoot him with. Anti-ship missiles, sabot tank rounds, and torpedoes are largely ineffective. Desiring to end the threat once and for all, the G-Graspers recruit Kudo into their scientific research section. The eggheads are building a gun that shoots a miniature black hole. Since Kudo is adept at creating tiny electronics, he is a natural for the team.
I am not even going to get into the argument over a two-meter wide black hole being generated and then fired. Beyond basic accepted theory, normal black holes give me a headache, let alone one dreamed up by some crackpot writer. Heck, it is plenty easy to scoff at the idea of creating a black hole on Earth. Suppose you could create a singularity. Would firing it at Godzilla, and thereby Mother Earth, from a satellite (oh yes, an orbital black hole strike) be a good idea? I would rather not play around with aberrations of time and space on Terra.
Anyway, they shoot this God-awful superweapon at an old building a few hundred yards from the observation pavilion (notice that I said "pavilion," not bunker). It obliterates the structure and everybody cheers. Meanwhile, some brat kid (I refuse to even name him) watches the whole thing. Tsujimori is called when security catches the kid; she asks the worthless brat to not tell anybody and sends him on his way. Later that night, a wormhole develops where the weapon was discharged. The little punk sees a giant dragonfly swoop overhead and disappear into the wormhole. He finds a big silver egg, which he takes home, hides from his mother, and eventually dumps down a storm drain in Tokyo.
I would like to point out that the Major could have saved everyone a lot of trouble by drawing her service pistol and shooting the aforementioned kid in the head.
As luck would have it, Meganuron's need water to develop. Parts of Tokyo begin flooding and people become lunch for the ravenous insects. There is also a small detail about the amount of flooding that happens. In some places it appears that sixty or more feet of water are present. Substantial levels of large buildings are underwater. Where did all that H2O come from? Why doesn't it spread out? Do the Meganurons build dams, like beavers?
The aquatic menaces are only immature versions of the species. A horde of nymphs crawl up the sides of buildings and molt, creating a huge swarm of giant dragonflies called Meganulas. The cloud finds and attacks Godzilla. He quickly finds out what it is like to be a warm-blooded mammal in Minnesota during a wet summer. The behemoth stumbles around, swatting at the cloud of insects. Finally, he gets fed up and takes to roasting them with radioactive fire. The surviving Meganulas, engorged, retreat back to Tokyo.
Godzilla was already under fire by the G-Graspers and attached forces when the Meganulas attacked. The humans were herding the monster, pending targeting and firing of the black hole gun (nicknamed "Dimension Tide). Right after the swarm of insects leaves, Godzilla found out what it is like to have a gravity howitzer nearly land on your head. Luckily, the shot missed by just enough for Godzilla to be outside the event horizon. The monster made haste to dive underwater and flee ground zero.
The Meganulas sucked out Godzilla's life-force for a reason: to feed their giant queen. After being infused with the rich radioactive soup, she breaks out of her chrysalis and takes to the air. The revealed main adversary is sufficiently mean looking for the part, but the model's mobility hampered some of the fight scenes. First off, I think it was probably heavy. Secondly, it has three attacks: a huge stinger, two crablike claws, and a blurring of the wings that sends out sonic shockwaves.
And so Godzilla wades ashore and starts demolishing Tokyo. Alerted to the presence of another kaiju, the Megaguirus attacks (the scientists had said that the species was highly territorial). The clash is almost a good fight. Unfortunately, the mutated dragonfly's mobility problem impedes any sort of dynamic tussle. Most of the action is either Megaguirus knocking Godzilla over or zipping about before stabbing him with the stinger. Again, some of the shots of the two monsters, with model destruction all around, are extremely convincing. Too bad about the one ridiculous shot, where it looks like Godzilla jumped a mile into the air. We were so close to having a serious confrontation!
You may guess that Megaguirus eventually loses and becomes a shrieking tiki torch. Well, the humans have not been slacking in the meantime. The G-Graspers attempted to blast both creatures with Dimension Tide, but it experienced a severe software malfunction (should have used Linux). Because of the operating system crash, the satellite begins falling out of orbit. (Remember in the MST3K movie when Mike lets go of the Hubble and it drops straight down? Yeah, like that. In Mike's own words, "How did it do that?") Kudo struggles to fix the glitch and gets things working just in time to fire one shot at the victorious Godzilla. Dimension Tide disintegrates upon reentry. Godzilla apparently becomes one with spacetime.
The return to high technology, such as the inexplicable black hole gun and the advanced Griffin fighter, was quite welcome. I think that kaiju movies work better with fantastic weaponry. Also, the Godzilla suit looks superb and seemed to have enough mobility for most scenes (except one where they used reverse to return him to standing, that looked awful). On the minus side, the fights were mostly disappointing, as was the human story. Look, could we get through one movie without at least one of the protagonists having angst? Where is an evil businessman or treacherous aliens when you need them? Lastly, the music seemed poorly selected for a number of scenes. I would suddenly notice and wonder, "Why did they use this music as the backdrop?"
Things I Learned From This Movie:
Attacking a radioactive leviathan with infantry is a good way to open slots for promotion and recruiting.
Three people can easily plan and coordinate the evacuation of a major city.
Godzilla cannot defy the laws of physics.
When tracking a submerged monster, always drop a sonobouy in the water before deploying your inflatable boat.
Godzilla is made out of styrofoam.
Dragonflies can effectively jam a satellite's targeting system.
Clumsy insects are normally not a problem, but things change when they get to be several thousand tons.
When they say a satellite is falling out of orbit, they mean straight down toward the Earth.
Stuff To Watch For:
1 min - Oh, this is old news.
10 mins - The mystery of the microbots was helping to keep those kids off of drugs. They are all probably buying crack cocaine by now. Way to go Major.
21 mins - Where did it go?
25 mins - And the Earth is again placed in peril by some stupid kid nurturing a monster from Hell.
42 mins - That beacon had better have shielded circuits and a powerful transmitter.
49 mins - Why is the SGS not being subjected to a brutal vortex of displaced water?
55 mins - You guys need a Mk19. Make that several Mk19s, an F-18 carrying napalm, and an on call MLRS battery.
86 mins - That has got to be the best fscking data integrity software I have ever seen! 3D interface and all.
95 mins - How is getting a lock on that little VTOL going to be easier than aiming at a huge, heat-radiating, radioactive lizard?
Tsujimori: "You're right, in theory, we have nothing to fear. However, that's only in theory. The one way to be certain would be to eliminate Godzilla once and for all."
Tsujimori: "What is it doing there? What does Godzilla want in the Science Institute?"
Yoshizawa: "It wants plasma energy."
Tsujimori: "Plasma? But they dropped the plan, didn't they? In case it attracted Godzilla back again."

Octopuses are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the world's oceans but are especially abundant in warm, tropical waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid, are often considered "monsters of the deep," though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters.
- Common Name:
- Common Octopus
- Scientific Name:
- Octopus vulgaris
- Type:
- Invertebrates
- Diet:
- Carnivore
- Average Life Span In The Wild:
- 1 to 2 years
- Size:
- 12 to 36 inches
- Weight:
- 6.6 to 22 pounds
Most octopuses stay along the ocean's floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the water's surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at dawn and dusk to search for food. Crabs, shrimps, and lobsters rank among their favorite foods, though some can attack larger prey, like sharks. Octopuses typically drop down on their prey from above and, using powerful suctions that line their arms, pull the animal into their mouth. The octopus performs its famous backward swim by blasting water through a muscular tube on the body called a siphon. Octopuses also crawl along the ocean's floor, tucking their arms into small openings to search for food. Seals, whales, and large fish prey on octopuses.
If threatened, octopuses shoot an inky fluid that darkens the water, confusing the aggressor. The octopus can also change to gray, brown, pink, blue, or green to blend in with its surroundings. Octopuses may also change color as a way to communicate with other octopuses. Octopuses are solitary creatures that live alone in dens built from rocks, which the octopus moves into place using its powerful arms. Octopuses sometimes even fashion a rock "door" for their den that pulls closed when the octopus is safely inside.

Top news of the day
Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger throws at Heinz Field for first time since elbow surgery

Eagles' Doug Pederson still 'extremely optimistic' for season despite positive coronavirus test
Eagles coach Doug Pederson remains "extremely optimistic" about the prospects of playing a football season in 2020 even after contracting the coronavirus himself. "My confidence hasn't changed at all," Pederson said Monday in his first comments since testing positive. "I'm confident that we are going to play."
Sources: Cleveland Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr. not opting out of season, despite earlier concerns
Beckham is not expected to opt out of the 2020 season, sources confirm to ESPN, despite comments published Monday by The Wall Street Journal from an interview conducted before the wide receiver reported to training camp and saw the team's facilities.
Vikings, GM Rick Spielman agree to multiyear extension
The Vikings and Spielman agreed to a multiyear extension, the team announced Monday. The contract extension comes after the Vikings and coach Mike Zimmer agreed to a multiyear extension last month. The Vikings have gone 57-38-1 in the six seasons with Spielman and Zimmer in control. "I know every day we come to this building, and the only thing that we want to accomplish is to win a Super Bowl," Spielman said.
Sources: San Francisco 49ers agree to one-year deal with oft-injured TE Jordan Reed
The Pro Bowl tight end has reached agreement on an incentive-laden, one-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Reed is 30 and has a history of concussions, but when healthy -- as he is now -- he is one of the game's elite tight ends.
Broncos starting right tackle Ja'Wuan James to opt out of season
James tweeted a statement Monday, saying it was "tough, but the right decision" and citing "too much unknown about this virus & about plans handling it going forward."

Doug Marrone says Jacksonville Jaguars taking coronavirus seriously
Jaguars coach Doug Marrone says he doesn't know why his team has had more players placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list than any other NFL franchise. They're following the protocols set forth by the NFL and NFLPA, wearing the tracing devices and working out in smaller groups, he said. But as of Monday morning the Jaguars have had 12 players placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list since tracking began last week, including starting quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Quotes of the day
What our NFL Nation reporters saw today
Cam Newton posted a video to his YouTube channel titled "All We Know is Work!!" And while we know coach Bill Belichick doesn't do "Instachat" or "Snapface," this is the type of social-media post even he can get behind. Newton and his Patriots teammates began the strength and conditioning portion of training camp Monday. Through the first full week of testing, the team hasn't placed any player on the COVID-19 list, although eight players have opted out of the season. -- Mike Reiss
Ravens running back Mark Ingram said his mindset hasn't changed even though he is 30 and faces increased competition from rookie second-round pick J.K. Dobbins. "The coaches will decide how to rotate us and play us all," Ingram said. "All I do is work my butt off. I compete my butt off no matter where I'm at and who's in my running back room. That's just the bottom line." Ingram tied a Ravens record with 15 total touchdowns last season and finished 14th in the NFL with 1,018 yards rushing. But the Ravens can create $5 million in salary cap room by cutting Ingram next offseason, which heightens the pressure on the three-time Pro Bowl back. -- Jamison Hensley
Dolphins coach Brian Flores says Preston Williams, who tore his ACL in November, has been cleared for football activity. This is a good sign for his Week 1 availability. Williams, an undrafted rookie free agent last season, led all rookie receivers in targets and tied for the lead in receptions in Weeks 1-9. He immediately became a starter, totaling 32 catches for 428 yards and three touchdowns in eight games. Williams is a good fantasy football sleeper option. -- Cameron Wolfe
The Broncos have already shown the players how training camp will be different. As the players began their first full team conditioning workouts Sunday and Monday, they used the playing field inside the team's indoor practice complex as a team meeting room so the players could have enough distance between them. Among the items covered in the first meetings were how players can recognize symptoms of COVID-19, the procedures for a player who tests positive for the virus, and how the locker rooms, weight room and cafeteria would operate with the limits on the number of players in those spaces. -- Jeff Legwold
Bills safety Jordan Poyer describes the changes inside the team's facility in Orchard Park. First, players arrive and are tested for COVID-19, then receive wrist-worn devices that track how close they are to other individuals. Each locker has an empty locker next to it and the cafeteria is on the ground floor with tables outside. Poyer also said the team's meetings have been held on the indoor practice field and players lined up five feet apart while running this morning. -- Marcel Louis-Jacques
The Panthers were able to get on the field for their first walk-through on Monday. Bridgewater spoke to the media on Monday as well, saying he was "honored'' to be following in the footsteps of Cam Newton. Regarding all the offensive talent on the Panthers and on the other NFC South teams this season, Bridgewater said, "At the end of the day, you have to prove it on the field." One thing Bridgewater has proved is his ability to lead. He said he already feels like teammates are feeding off his energy and "I'm feeding off theirs.'' -- David Newton
Safety Kevin Byard became a father last year and his wife is pregnant with their second child. Byard said he and his wife discussed opting out. "We decided as a family that I am going to play this year. If I felt that I was going to opt out, I probably would have never come to the building. I feel like the Titans are trying to do their best to make sure everyone is safe. We all have to take the precautions as far as washing your hands and wearing a mask." Tackle Taylor Lewan has a toddler and his wife recently had a baby. He hasn't considered opting out. "I have a daughter that is 15 days old today," Lewan said. "We are one of those high-risk situations so I'm trying to be as smart as possible. You have to take care of your own stuff. There's a safety aspect that comes into this thing. It's hard but this is my job and what I wanted to do my entire life. It was never a thought for me to opt out or anything like that." -- Turron Davenport
The Browns placed third-string QB Garrett Gilbert on the COVID-19 list Monday. Going into training camp, coach Kevin Stefanski noted that he didn't plan to separate the QBs in different meeting rooms, saying that, "the quarterbacks in particular are spread out way more than six feet. ... We have four quarterbacks on our roster, and the meeting room they are in can fit way more than four players." With one of his QBs already on the COVID list, it will be interesting to see if Stefanski sticks with that plan. Obviously, starter Baker Mayfield going on the list, as well, would significantly hamper the Browns as they attempt to install a new offense despite a limited offseason and training camp. -- Jake Trotter
The 49ers opened training camp on Monday with all eyes on the tight end position. The Niners signed Jordan Reed to a one-year deal with the goal of making him the type of speedy complement to George Kittle capable of opening up a new look for the offense with multiple tight ends on the field. Kittle's contract remains one of the most important storylines of this camp. Coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch expressed optimism something will be worked out soon enough. "I feel really good about this going forward and I feel really optimistic about it," Shanahan said. "So, hopefully something will happen sooner than later. Not too concerned about it, though." Kittle is entering the final year of his rookie deal, but Lynch said no firm deadline is in place to complete a new contract. Regardless, it's a good sign for the Niners that Kittle is in camp and the sides continue to work toward the same goal. -- Nick Wagoner
Bengals right tackle Jonah Williams was photographed coming into the team facilities on Monday looking in very good shape. That should be a good sign for a team that desperately needs long-term stability at right tackle. The Bengals drafted Williams in the first round of the 2019 draft but were without the Alabama product all season while he recovered from shoulder surgery. -- Ben Baby
The strength of Washington's team will be the defensive line, and it's not just because of the starters. It's conceivable that players such as Ryan Kerrigan and either Daron Payne, Matt Ioannidis or Jonathan Allen will come off the bench. Tim Settle is another who provides depth and will be a help off the bench; as defensive line coach Sam Mills said, "He's a talented, talented man who has a bright future." For the first time in a while Washington has legitimate depth here and Mills will consistently be able to rotate in fresh bodies. If Washington is going to make any noise, this group must produce, and it won't be just because of rookie Chase Young. It'll stem from a talented and deep group. -- John Keim
The Falcons were back on the field Monday for some conditioning work, giving folks their first glimpse of new running backTodd Gurley. The former Ram, clad in black gear with white sleeves while wearing a light blue face mask, made a nifty, one-handed catch coming out of the backfield in one drill. He seemed to have his acceleration even though there are concerns about his durability based on left knee issues from the past. "Just trying to work my mind and work my body back into shape,'' Gurley said afterward. He teased the media for not acknowledging his 26th birthday, then Gurley gave a shout-out to others who share the same birthday such as teammates Dante Fowler Jr. and Younghoe Koo and 43-year-old Tom Brady, now playing in the NFC South with the Tampa Bay Bucs. -- Vaughn McClure

The white colored contact iGenics Review lenses do not add or change the person's natural eye color. People usually these transparent, or white colored lenses, if they need vision correction, not seeing the need for them to wear lenses that change their natural eye color. People wear white colored contacts just to enhance their natural eye colors. While a major chunk of the population chooses to sport colored contact lenses, there is still a minority of the populous that are satisfied with the color of their eyes. For such people who wish to flaunt their natural eye color, the traditional transparent lenses, or white lenses, are available in the market. An alternative to wearing the transparent colored lens is to wear the palest shade of aqua colored contacts, in which the color tint is barely noticeable. White, or transparent, colored contacts are really not very popular in the market, and as such are not really manufactured by all the companies that make eye lenses. However, there are those few companies that take into account the needs of the minority who do not wish to go with the crowd, and prefer to wear contacts that are transparent. As a variation to the monotony of the transparent contact lenses, a few companies add the slightest tinge of aqua to the transparent lenses that is virtually unnoticeable. Semi transparent aqua colored contacts are also quite popular with those few who wish to flaunt their own eye colors. The tints barely visible, these contact lenses are worn only to enhance the natural color of the person's eye, and the only giveaway that the person is wearing a lens is the thin film of the contacts that is visible around the pupil. Only a handful of people choose to wear the transparent lenses for enhancing the effects of their eye, without having to alter the natural color of their eyes. There are 2 types of contact lenses available in the market - corrective lenses and decorative ones. The white colored lenses do not add or change the person's natural eye color; namely, they are usually only worn by people who require corrective lenses. Additionally, people who choose these transparent lenses, or the extremely mild aqua colored contacts, are usually pretty conservative. They rarely like or want to make changes to their natural eye color, and are comfortable as they are. Since people who wear these transparent lenses are usually just looking for vision correction, manufacturers focus on the comfort factor when making these lenses.
