Recently, I experienced an attractive alternative to a Caribbean big-ship experience aboard the 24,000-ton, eight-deck Braemar. Like the four other ships that make up the Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines fleet, this mid-sized, “no-neon” vessel — with a maximum capacity of 987 guests — eschews bells and whistles in favor of a traditional, intimate ambience similar to a British country estate.
Guests onboard the Braemar are primarily British couples age 60 and above or single cruisers (38 cabins are designed exclusively for singles) with few families aboard except during holiday weeks.
With an interior bathed in natural light streaming in through a glass-walled atrium and encircled by a teak promenade, the Lounge Deck embodies the essence of the Braemar’s classic design. Several of the ship’s public areas are located here, including its two main performance spaces, boutiques, a photo gallery and a library.
My favorite space to kick back, relax and people-watch was the Observatory with its spectacular panoramic views of sea and sky through floor to ceiling windows; the space came alive in the early evening when guests would gather there for pre-dinner drinks.
The ship’s nightlife revolved around the Neptune Lounge and Coral Club, which host Broadway-style variety and cabaret shows as well as performances by vocalists and comedians. Following the shows, I would occasionally stop off at the Skylark Lounge, a magnet for night owls who flock here for karaoke and late-night disco dancing.
Of all the programs on the daily agenda, I would especially recommend the classical concerts and talks by guest lecturers on history, culture and the arts.
I also enjoyed the onboard activities with a distinctly British flavor, such as quoits (similar to horseshoes), darts, carpet bowls (a bowling game) and the ever-popular afternoon tea. There are additional games similar to what you find on U.S. ships, including bingo, bridge, line dancing, trivia contests, and ice-carving, plus an exercise room and a spa with a full treatment menu.
Accommodations range from top-of-the-line 300-square-foot superior suites and 225-square-foot balcony suites to 130-square-foot inside cabins. Suite amenities include a separate sitting area, bathroom with shower/tub, mini-bar and CD/DVD players. The majority of guests stay in standard twin outside cabins measuring 140 square feet. Mine was illumined by two large porthole windows (the higher-category superior twin outside cabins have picture windows) and furnished with twin beds, a sofa, a desk, a television and a safe.
Many cruisers enjoyed dressing up for dinner on formal nights, which are held once a week on every cruise. Five-course feasts are served in the Thistle Restaurant and the Grampian Restaurant, which maintain a traditional assigned seating policy. Those who prefer an informal atmosphere can dine at the Palms Cafe with indoor and outdoor open seating for buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner.
“The onboard atmosphere on the Braemar and other Fred. Olsen ships is far more conducive to meeting fellow guests than on the big ships,” said Captain Arild Ueland, formerly with Royal Caribbean International.
He also noted that since joining Fred. Olsen in 2005, he has become acquainted with many first-time and repeat guests (an average of 35 percent of guests per cruise are past guests), whom he greets on a first-name basis.
Hotel manager Hans Van Velzen attributed the ship’s signature high level of service to the loyalty of crew members who have worked on the Braemar for many years.
“Our low turnover rate keeps morale high and translates into a happy, contented crew that goes out of its way to accommodate guests’ special requests,” said Van Velzen.
While more than 95 percent of the guests on a typical Braemar cruise are from the U.K., Fred. Olsen recently implemented a new marketing strategy targeting the U.S. market.
I would especially recommend this ship to Anglophiles who prefer longer itineraries, as most Braemar cruises are 14 days long.
The Braemar is spending the summer sailing from the U.K. (Dover) on two-week itineraries to the Western Mediterranean, Canary Islands, the Baltic Sea and Norway. In October, she returns to Barbados to offer a variety of cruises in the Caribbean and the Panama Canal.
At present, the Braemar — as well as the other three ships in the Fred. Olsen fleet — does not have any departures from the U.S. However, there are departures from Bridgetown, Barbados, for Caribbean cruises as well as Amazon and Panama Canal sailings. All other departures are from the U.K., which gives clients the opportunity to do a pre- or post-land package in London or other European cities.

“Take a leap of faith” is Santiago Gonzalez’s advice to incoming freshmen and it’s exactly what he did his first year at UNCG by attending a meeting of the Spanish American Latino Student Association (SALSA). The first-generation Mexican-American student was admittedly shy by nature, but he was determined to change himself and become involved.
With a little encouragement from the SALSA president, Santiago applied to the executive board and became the publicity chair for the 2012-13 academic year. The following years he became more involved in the Latino community and in the leadership of SALSA, becoming vice president his sophomore year, and president his junior and senior years.
Santiago says UNCG is big enough to meet new people on daily basis, but small enough to see your friends every day as well.

Sometimes traveling solo can be a welcomed reprieve. San Francisco is one of the best cities for traveling alone, with different districts to discover, comfortable spots to people-watch, and the best vistas in the country. Here are some travel ideas for your own kind of trip to SF, where you’re free to explore at your own pace.
Grab a Blix electric or Albion bike from Stanford Court Hotel and cruise around one of the most bike-friendly cities in America. Check out our local bike routes and see if you can find where the buffalo roam in Golden Gate Park.
Chinatown is packed with businesses, tea houses and restaurants to explore. Sometimes it’s nice to just walk around and window-shop or buy trinkets for friends back home. Visit the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory to see how the iconic fortune cookie is made. It’s located on Ross Alley between Washington and Jackson streets and has been around since 1962. Read more using our Chinatown guide.
What better way to explore solo than by taking a walk? The beauty of San Francisco is around every corner. Make sure to plan a walk across the Golden Gate Bridge during your stay. It’s best visited around noon after the morning fog has lifted and before the evening fog creeps in. Enjoy views of the city skyline, the Marin Headlands and the Pacific Ocean during this meditative walk.
Established by railroad tycoons, Nob Hill is one of San Francisco’s oldest and most well-preserved neighborhoods. It’s maintained a posh status in San Francisco ever since, and today you’ll still find plenty to do. See a show at The Masonic, tour the Cable Car Museum, and walk the indoor labyrinth at Grace Cathedral. Read more using our Nob Hill neighborhood guide.
You can cover a lot of ground using the city’s iconic cable car system, with stops at Lombard Street, Fisherman’s Wharf, Chinatown, Union Square, and North Beach. Best of all, Stanford Court Hotel is situated just in front of the California & Powell stop of the California/Van Ness line. You have to pay for each ride, but if you buy a passport ticket for the day or week, you can hop on and off as you please. Read more about navigating the most invigorating public transportation in the country using our cable car guide.
Legendary because of its impact on the Beat Generation writers, this longtime bookstore and publisher was founded in the 1950s by poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti. Aside from its historical and cultural significance, you’ll find that it’s a wonderfully curated bookstore. Purchase a book to enjoy during your evening downtime. City Lights is located at 261 Columbus Ave., right on the edge of Chinatown.
The nearby North Beach neighborhood is home to Little Italy, one of the prettiest neighborhoods in the city. It’s an ideal spot to have a coffee and a pastry and take in the scene. Visit the pristine Washington Square Park – which is so beautiful it seems fictional – and grab a seat at a nearby restaurant or order something to-go to enjoy in the park. If the weather isn’t ideal, cozy up to the historic writer’s hang out, Caffe Trieste, located precariously at 601 Vallejo St. and Grant. Order a pastry and espresso, read up on the news, and enjoy the good life.
Traveling alone gives you a chance to treat yourself and relax. Check out our casual unwind package at Stanford Court Hotel to enjoy quiet time during your stay.

CLEVELAND-- More than 30 attorneys were in a Cuyahoga County courtroom Monday for a preliminary meeting about how the court will handle the dozens of lawsuits filed against University Hospitals.
Families are suing the hospital after a malfunction in the fertility center’s storage tank, where more than 2,000 eggs and embryos were kept, left many of them unviable. For some of the 600 or so couples impacted, the eggs and embryos stored there were their last chance at having biological children.
There are several class actions lawsuits and individual lawsuits currently filed against University Hospitals. Attorneys told FOX8 there are still new cases being filed.
The major question before the court is whether the cases will be handled as class action lawsuit, if they will each get their own trial or some combination of the two.
“There’s groups that want to be class action and there’s a whole process for that. Our position for that is that people who have no interest in class action, they want to get justice now. They want to move forward. They want to do discovery. They want to get to trial,” said attorney Tom Merriman.
“In one case, our clients feel that a class treatment is the best and most appropriate way to proceed and that’s how they wanted to go, and the other our clients were more interested in filing and individual action so we did that,” explained Eric Zagrans, an attorney representing two different families.
Cuyahoga County Judge Stuart Friedman told attorneys he intends to make a ruling in conjunction with other judges involved on whether the cases should be consolidated.
Friedman said there has been at least one opposition to consolidation filed.
Attorneys and families are also waiting for the hospital’s internal investigation to be completed.
“The lawyers for UH tell us that they are conducting an internal investigation of exactly what happened on the weekend of March 3, 4 so we are waiting for the results of that investigation before we use that as the spring board for any additional information we might need,” Zagrans said.
But many families are eager to find resolution as soon as possible.
“The tough thing is we have a lot of people who are on the clock. They are in these programs because they want to make a family time is running out. They need to get back and get the treatments. Fortunately, they can do that, there’s ways to do that, but people need information on whether they can trust the process at UH,” Merriman said.
University Hospitals has offered counseling, fertility treatments and storage to those impacted at no cost.

Defender Robert Huth snatched an injury-time winner as Stoke came from behind to beat Aston Villa 2-1 at the Britannia Stadium and get their season off and running.
Club-record signing Kenwyne Jones had earlier marked his home debut with an equaliser to Stewart Downing's 35th-minute header on an emotional night for the Potters.
Manager Tony Pulis missed the first half after the death of his mother earlier in the day but returned after the interval, while new Villa boss Gerard Houllier was absent due to his commitments with the French Football Federation.
An early breakneck pace suited Stoke's high-energy game and they had a number of half-chances, with Robert Huth's shot deflecting off Stephen Warnock to present Brad Friedel with a comfortable save. Having headed Matt Etherington's right-wing corner wide, Jones produced a brilliant piece of skill to chest down Thomas Sorensen's clearance and hit a swerving 25-yard left-footed volley on the turn which the Villa goalkeeper had to parry away.
Villa midfielder Marc Albrighton's received a talking-to for appearing to swipe Dean Whitehead around the head and from that point until the break the visitors took control. Gabriel Agbonlahor's 35th-minute curling left-footed cross to the far post caught Huth in two minds and he chose the wrong option as he stepped towards the ball only to see it sail over him. Downing timed his run and dive to perfection, planting a low curling header past Sorensen and in off the right post.
Stoke felt they had justifiable claims for a penalty moments later when James Collins seemed to handle under pressure from Jones but referee Lee Probert waved away appeals. Ashley Young should then have put Villa further ahead only to head wide from close range from Agbonlahor's cross when it looked easier to score.
Pulis made an emotional appearance for the second half to take up his position in the technical area, immediately giving the crowd and his team a lift. Five minutes after the restart Friedel kept out Jones' header from Etherington's free-kick, with the goalkeeper then pawing away Rory Delap's long throw under pressure from the Trinidad and Tobago international as Etherington's follow-up was blocked.
Stoke were back in the ascendancy but their hard work was almost undone by a misunderstanding between Ryan Shawcross and Sorensen which resulted in the goalkeeper blasting the ball at Nigel Reo-Coker and back over his own crossbar.
However their endeavour finally paid off in the 80th minute when Ricardo Fuller combined with Etherington on the left of the penalty area and the winger sent over the ideal cross for Jones to head home. The former Sunderland striker pulled out his trademark somersault celebration but despite the equaliser Stoke still had to be alert and Shawcross deflected Reo-Coker's shot behind in the last five minutes.
Deep into three minutes of injury-time Jermaine Pennant's free-kick dropped to Etherington and his shot was deflected in by Huth to secure the home side's first win of the season.

Application Data Management suite monitors growth of databases, eliminates large production database copies.
OuterBay Technologies on Monday will roll out its Application Data Management suite, software that allows enterprises to monitor and manage data growth.
The ADM suite consists of three key components: ARM (Application Resource Manager), Instance Generator and LiveArchive.
ARM allows users to monitor, detect, diagnose and resolve data growth thats gotten out of hand. The tool provides data analysis for data growth management and performance optimization, such as analysis of existing data growth, data growth forecasts and "what-if" analysis of potential data policies.
Prior to this release, ARM was limited to support of Oracle Corp. and PeopleSoft Inc. applications data. With the technology integration that followed OuterBays October acquisition of BitByBit International came support for other enterprise applications, including IBMs DB2 and Informix data management software, Sybase Inc. databases, Microsoft Corp.s SQL Server, custom code and databases, and all leading hardware platforms. OuterBay officials said that future releases also will support SAP R/3 and Siebel Systems Inc. databases.
ADMs second component, Instance Generator, eliminates full-size production database copies in favor of smaller but relationally intact subsets of the database that provide more efficient test, development, staging and training environments. Instance Generator is the result of OuterBay having integrated BitByBits Subsetter product, which is technology dedicated to the problem of quickly creating appropriate subsets of data.
LiveArchive improves application performance and reduces the downtime needed for worldwide consolidations and upgrades by managing application data growth, officials said. It works by identifying inactive application data and moving it onto more cost-effective storage, where it remains online and accessible to users from their existing application user interface. This results in a smaller, high-performance production database, OuterBay said. It is a result of OuterBays integration of BitByBits CheckMate archiving technology.
Michael Howard, chairman and CEO of OuterBay, said that the motivation behind the expansion of the companys data management software is to address the fact that enterprises storage spending is skyrocketing. "While all application data is not equal, companies typically treat it as though it were," said Howard, in a statement. "As a result, spending on storage continues to skyrocket as enterprises address data growth by accommodating the problem."
Analysts agree that the management of large databases is becoming an issue, as the size of data stores move from megabytes to gigabytes to terabytes. "Adding more enterprise-class disk arrays to the problem is becoming less of an option, not just for the added cost of higher-priced storage but also because of the time to back up and restore the data," said Carolyn DiCenzo, an analyst at Gartner, in a statement. "File-level [hierarchical storage management] products are often not a good fit for managing database growth, and, thus, there is a growing interest in products specifically designed to archive database data."
The ADM suite is priced at approximately $1,000 per gigabyte.

DOWNLOAD OUR PRESS PACK with facts and information.
There are three species, the Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus), the Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) and the Tapanuli orangutan (Pongo tapanuliensis). The orangutan’s preferred habitat is low-lying peat-swamp forest. Their distribution is influenced by fruit availability and are rarely found above 500m.
Being arboreal (tree-dwelling), orangutan populations are difficult to estimate. Numbers are estimated by counting their nests combined with satellite imagery.
According to the recent Population and Habitat Viability Assessment (PHVA) in May 2017 there are an estimated 57,000 Bornean orangutans, 13,000 Sumatran orangutans and 800 Tapanuli orangutan in the wild. 80% of orangutans live outside of protected areas.
Fossil evidence suggests that during the Pleistocene era, from around 1.8 million years to 11,500 years ago, orangutans lived throughout much of Southeast Asia, from Java in the south, up into Laos and southern China.
Orangutans are known to eat over 400 different foods and during times of poor fruiting they will eat less nutritious food such as bark and leaves. Orangutans have an important role in seed dispersal. The seeds from the ripe fruit are adapted to withstand passage through the orangutans' gut. The seeds are excreted in their own small pile of faecal matter that helps them to germinate and grow. Orangutans are a vital cog in the workings of the rainforest ecosystem.

The word orangutan means ‘person of the forest’ and orangutans are perfectly adapted to their habitat. Their long arms and feet like hands allow them to grasp branches mean they travel with ease through the forest canopy. As orangutans open up the forest canopy by breaking off branches and creating gaps. This allows light to reach the forest floor, which helps the forest to regenerate naturally. Orangutans make and sleep in a new nest each night.
Like all great apes, orangutans they have large brains, are self-aware beings, capable of reasoning. In the wild, orangutans use tools such as sticks to extract insects and honey to eat. When it rains they will cover their heads with leaves, which act like an umbrella. In captive or semi-wild conditions orangutans have been taught to use sign-language.
Orangutans are semi-solitary which is unique among primate species. The scarcity of food means orangutans spend up to 60% of their day foraging (looking for food) and competition for food leads to this solitary life. The largest group being a mother and two offspring. The courtship period lasts between three to ten days and males share no role in the upbringing of their offspring.
Orangutans are the slowest breeding of all primates. On average, they give birth every eight years -the longest inter-birth interval of any land-based mammal. A female orangutan will normally have no more than three offspring. Their low reproduction rate puts orangutans at considerable risk and can drive local populations to extinction.

Flexibility and collaboration are two key buzz words in office design trends. Creating spaces that offers multiple use allows staff to enhance and utilise their workplace according to changing and evolving needs. This is further enhanced by a supportive range of furniture choices that allow use in more ways then one. Here, we highlight a pick of five products and highlight how they can be used in multiple settings and for a number of applications.
The Pantagruel table is a picnic table with a fun and stylish twist. The round shape makes the table great for face to face collaboration, informal meetings and social lunchtimes. The highlight of the design is the steel powder coated frame that can be finished in a choice of colours. Create a quirky indoors breakout space or take work outdoors as the solid wood composition of Pantagruel means the table is suitable for outdoor application.
Take a picnic table and a rectangular meeting table and put the two together and you have the Marina table. This versitile and adjustable table rests between creative canteen furniture and fun meeting room furniture. Placed within interrogated spaces or breakout areas, the Marina table can become a space for informal meetings, group discussions or recreation and break time. The classic picnic table look is given contemporary appeal with a pultrusion fibre glass profile and powder coated steel frame. The added quality of the Marina table is that numerous other tables can be joined to make an endless table.
Do not let the lightweight appearance of the Picnic table delude you from the high quality of this innovative piece of design. The Picnic table is made from a single sheet of 10 mm aluminium plate finished in colourful powder coating of your choice. The simplicity of the tables’ form quintessentially adds to the multitude of uses it encompasses. Used alone or in line with a range of tables, create an adventurous space inside or outdoors for staff to utilise throughout the day.
Applied in school, college and university projects, the Soft bench set increases seating space and allows numerous activities to take place without presenting restrictions on workspace. Bench seating eases clutter as single chair seats would and increases social interaction. They make an ideal option for common rooms where the space is used for both recreation but also study and socialising. The rounded corner finish eases impact making it great for high volume spaces.
Presenting high quality with refined style, the Jura round table is a classic wooden table made for modern interiors. Apply it to numerous spaces and it will not fail to provide high functionality. Add chairs and it becomes a meeting table or add stools for breakout space; the table can be redefined for multiple use. The lightweight properties of the construction make it easy to move, whilst the hardwearing Formica laminate gives it contract-level durability.

After being down for a few weeks, K has been recuperating and is getting physically stronger.
Since she has some of her strength back, we started to put her up in her seat to 45-60deg and her head looking straight ahead.
Her usual head position is to the side to allow her saliva/secretion to easily flow out. If her head is straight, she has to put in more effort to clear her secretion.
We have her up looking out of the window and ask her to wave hi to the neighbors in the opposite block. We have her sit up to watch her shows on her tablet.
And she really enjoys it even though she has to put in more effort to stay in that position.
She refuses to come down when we get her to come down.
I call this her Gold Class movie seat. It’s reclinable and has a leg rest that looks pretty comfortable for one to enjoy her movie.
Yes I think she probably needs better arm slings.
This lounger, together with her mattress is very useful. The comfi mattress provides a ventilated and comfortable padding on the lounger. The ikea lounger is really easy for us to put her back down flat promptly in the event she handle her sitting position or needs other attention.

Get a Feel for Our Place.
This is Our Place, Together.
We are a family friendly, California Cuisine with great service, quality food and good drinks.
The BEST Restaurant in Big Bear!
The BEST Bar in Big Bear!
OAKSIDE Restaurant & Bar is the newest restaurant to be opened by the Hastings family. This beautiful building where Oakside now resides was originally built in 1989. It was constructed with a massive amount of heavy, beautiful oak and is held together with many wooden pegs. Some of the materials came from as far as Koa and Malaysia. Throughout the years this three story beauty has been home to several different businesses and we are thrilled to bring this establishment back to life!
Our family has resided in Big Bear for five generations. Mike and Julie Hastings originally fell into the restaurant business in the fall of 2003 after returning home from a mandatory fire evacuation to find that their building, being leased by an Italian restaurant, was completely abandoned. Left with their property in disarray, Julie quickly decided that she was ready for a new challenge. Mike, having operated a successful construction company in Big Bear for over 25 years, went to work on the remodel and restoration process. In less than two months, the newly named Peppercorn Grille was open for business.
Peppercorn Grille, located just around the corner, will celebrate 14 years of success this winter and we are very excited about our latest venture. We are bringing a new name and a new concept to Big Bear. We feel very fortunate to open these new doors and share Oakside with the residents and guests of beautiful Big Bear Lake.
OAKSIDE offers three stories of beautiful restaurant space, sure to satisfy any crowd small or large. We offer a dining downstairs with several cozy and private booths, as well as tables with views of the Village. Our heated patio is ever popular and boasts a large fire pit with surrounding bar-height seating. This is the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail or glass of wine as you watch the passers-by. Upstairs you will find a full-bar with bar seating, bar tables and a large lounging section. Our bar level will feature live music or you can watch your favorite sporting event on one of our many TV's. Lastly, we will be offering our VIP third story loft for private parties and events.
Thank you for choosing to spend your time with us... we feel blessed to have you. Enjoy!

Q&A 1517 – Dark skin a divine curse?
How can some people say that dark skin is a curse from God? They point to the curse of Ham in Genesis 9.
The target of Noah's curse wasn't so much Ham as his future lineage, starting with his son Canaan. Canaan represents the inhabitants of the Promised Land (Canaan) up until the time of Joshua and Judges. There is, of course, no good reason to imagine that the Canaanites were more darkly complected than the Israelites.
In 2 Nephi 5, dark skin is a curse (though chapter 26 seems to allow that blacks are God’s children, too). Alma 3 has the curse of dark skin on Lamanites, although 3 Nephi 2 has them blessed, losing their dark skin and turning white. The book of Jacob too holds out hope that the dark-skinned will eventually be blessed.
Blacks are spirits who in their preexistence rebelled against God—their punishment was to inhabit black bodies. Some Mormon missionaries promised darker races they would be white in the next life if they convert. In 1976 a Mormon bishop in Vancouver was excommunicated for accepting a black into the Mormon priesthood. And IRS pressure seems to have triggered the 1978 “revelation” to President Spencer Kimball that it was time to allow the dark races into the ranks of the Mormon priesthood.

DualShockers checks out Lizardcube and DotEmu's remake of a Sega Master System and PC Engine cult classic - Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap.
I wasn’t alive during the heyday of the Sega and Nintendo consoles wars, but if I was, I believe I would have been a Sega kid. I would have been been drawn more to Sega’s “against-the-grain” attitude, and the games that kind of environment fostered. One of these unique games was Wonder Boy III: The Dragon’s Trap, an action-platformer which released for the Sega Master System back in 1989.
Lizardcube and DotEmu have remade Wonder Boy III with Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap, creating an excellent mix of old-school and new-school, and setting a new standard for how remakes should be handled.
Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap spared no time getting me into action, as the game started with me besieging a castle as fully upgraded Hu-Man, the human version of Wonder Boy. During this opening, I got a feeling for the basic attacking and jumping controls, and introduced some of the more common enemy types. After fighting through some enemies, I made my way to a mecha-dragon who I fought and swiftly defeated. It started spewing gold, but a blue flame attacked me, turning me into a lizard.
I frantically made my way out of the castle, and it collapsed behind me as the title appeared on screen. I ended up in a village outside the castle, and found it was up to me to change back into who I once was. Like many retro games, Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap is quite light on story, but I was fine with that, as the game’s lack of a linear or pronounced narrative makes the adventure to become Hu-Man again feel more like a organic adventure that I was embarking on my own.
The village the player starts in serves as a hub world of sorts, leading to different areas like a desert, a beach, and a forest. All these areas have different challenges for one to overcome as they find hearts to lengthen their health gauge and fight bosses.
The game’s lack of a linear or pronounced narrative makes the adventure to become Hu-Man again feel more like a organic adventure that I was embarking on my own.
After defeating each boss, Wonder Boy is turned into another animal. As I mentioned before, the first one players turn into is Lizard-Man, who can spit fire as a projectile without having to use an item. This is the worst of the forms, and I rarely found myself using it as I unlocked thelater ones.
The second form players encounter is Mouse-Man, who can climb on marked walls and squeeze into tiny areas. This form is used often in the game, and came to be one of my favorites. Next, one turns into Piranha-Man, who can swim in water, allowing him to access areas that the other forms can’t.
Lion-Man has a broadsword and has a wider range of attack, making the most useful for combat. The final transformation players come across is Hawk-Man, who can freely fly around the map, making late game traversal much easier. Players can change forms in portal rooms located across the game’s map, with one being situated in the home village.
Sans Lizard-Man, I found all of the forms in Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap to be equally useful and unique, offering up different gameplay scenarios that constantly kept the game fresh. Players also gain their own abilities that apply to all classes, such as the ability to break blocks. There are also a variety of magical stone tablets players can collect by killing enemies and opening chests.
Doing these aforementioned things also nets players coins, which you can spend at various shops throughout the world to get better armor and weapons, or at hospitals to fully heal their character. The shopkeepers also had funny quips after the player interacted with them depending on the location, which prevented purchasing items from becoming mundane. I found that most of the weapons and armor were fairly priced, and only the absolute best ones required a bit of grinding in order for me to muster up enough cash to purchase them.
It is a great retro game that excels with its non-linearity and fun gameplay. Luckily, the game stays just as strong in this remake.
So far, this review could have mostly pertained to Wonder Boy III: The Dragon’s Trap’s original release on the Master System. It is a great retro game that excels with its non-linearity and fun gameplay. Luckily, the game stays just as strong in this remake, as Lizardcube and DotEmu did many to things to help modernize game while still keeping that retro feeling – mostly because the retro visuals and audio are also included.
The completely remade graphics were hand-drawn frame-by-frame, and this choice really pays off. Along with Shante: 1/2 Genie Hero, Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap sets a new standard for animation in 2D platformers. The game is wonderful to look at, with the smoothly and expressively animated characters and backgrounds popping out vividly.
Music has also been wonderfully remastered, with each piece reflecting the original while also feeling all its own. The redone sound effects also were done well, and still fit the game. A gallery has also been included, showing concept art of this game and the original.
Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap sets a new standard for animation in 2D platformers.
If those modern enhancements aren’t your cup of tea, and you would rather just have the original Wonder Boy III experience released on modern consoles, the game’s got you covered too. All retro video and sound is included in the game, and both can be toggled in with the press of a button. The retro graphics are displayed cleanly in widescreen and runs at 60FPS, making this the best looking way to play the original game.
It was very thoughtful of the developers to include the original experience within the game, so both old players and new players (like myself) could experience the original game and see why people fell in love with the title and wanted it to be remade in the first place. This feature elevates Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap above other remakes, as it includes many modern enhancements without forgetting to pay homage to where it came from.
There is also the addition of the all new character Wonder Girl and, while she plays the same as Wonder Boy, the effort the developers went through to craft this character and implement Wonder Girl in both the old and new graphical styles will surely be appreciated by those who would rather play as a female or are looking for more female representation in games. For those uninterested, the feature is entirely optional. While I have only experienced the original through the retro setting of this remake, I saw that the developers even tweaked a couple of problems from what I have seen of Wonder Boy III on the Master System.

The inventory menus have also been updated and streamlined and appear to be much less cumbersome to use than the menus in the original, from what I have seen. It is also easier to choose and use picked up items than it seems to have been in the original Sega Master System release. The gameplay from the original has been retained, and while this is good for the most part, a few of the original games smaller flaws did carry over.
Doors can difficult to get into, as the player has to be lined up near pixel-perfect to go through some of them. A few enemies are also cheaply placed outside doors, leading to an unfair hit when the player leaves the shop. Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap’s level design is fair for the most part, so these cheap enemy placements really stand out when they occur.
I also found enemies’ hit boxes a little awkward at first, although I got used to it very quickly and had no trouble determining how to hit enemies later in the game. I also tended to bounce around a lot when I got hit by enemies, and while the lenient invincibility frames prevented me from taking damage, it did throw me around the screen and took away my control of Wonder Boy more than it needed to.
The lack of a fast travel system and map could also get annoying, as I had to repeatedly traverse through some of the game’s harder areas multiple times due to their difficulty, although I have a feeling that this was retained to make sure the remaster retained the same feeling as the original. These are minor problems though, and the amount of effort and care put into this remaster really shines through and overshadows these few grievances.
Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap sets a new standard for what remakes should include, and I hope future ones can follow in these footsteps with projects that are just as passionate. While it can’t escape a few of the original title’s annoyances, it is still an engaging and enjoyable experience for 2D-platformer and series fans, and will most likely garner the franchise some new fans, who will come into contact with the series for the first time with this game like I did. I never owned the Sega Master System, but I am elated that I got to experience this all-but-forgotten gem.

Lesson: What is sin?- Sin is the bad things we do. Does everyone sin? –yes, the bible says that everyone sins. Who was the first to sin?- Adam and Eve. In the Garden of Eden when they disobeyed God. God said do not eat from this tree and they did. What did God do about sin back then? -Killed an animal to cover it up. But they have to keep covering it up because the blood of an animal is temporary(too small). When the children of Israel were going to leave Egypt to worship God, they needed to be cleaned from their sin. God told them to kill a lamb and the blood on the door would tell him that they have obeyed and were clean. That is called the Passover. Passover is a reminder of our sin and God’s forgiveness. We need to be clean from sin to be close to God. The lamb’s blood was a temporary cover for sin. But God wanted us really clean from sin so he sent Jesus. Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins for all time. So if these red dots are my sin (put red “drop-shaped” dots on your skin with the sponge and red tempura/acrylic paint mixed with soap) the blood of a lamb is like a band aid, it just covers up the sin. (Place band-aids on all of the red dots. You can use the lamb band-aids with glue stick or your own band-aids.) Show the children that the sin ouchie is still under the band-aid. But Jesus dying on the cross takes away your sin for good(show the picture of the cross), when you let him into your heart. Wash off all of the ouchies with a wet wash cloth. To have him clean all of your sin ouchies you need to ask Jesus into your heart. Who wants to have a sin ouchie, and erase it? (Show them on their skin how Jesus takes away their sin ouchies by using the face paint or your own paint mixture and the drop-shaped sponge, Lamb’s Blood Band Aid and erase the paint.) I asked Jesus to come into my heart.
Who here has asked Jesus into their hearts? Who wants to? Lets all put our hands together, close our eyes real tight and say a prayer asking Jesus to come into our hearts and thanking him that he has come in.
T– Thank you God for everything that you give me and thank you Jesus for dieing on the cross for me and that you are now alive.
L– I am sorry for the bad things I have done. Please forgive me. And please come into my heart and be my King forever.
E– I have an ear to hear. I will listen to you.
-In Jesus name we pray Amen.
Everyone who prayed that prayer has no more sins and has Jesus in their heart!!!!
The lamb’s blood covered up sin, but Jesus’ blood takes it away.
Important Point: 1. Jesus takes away sins forever. 2. I can ask Jesus to live in my heart so I can live with God forever.
Materials: face paint/ red Tempera paint, band aids, wash cloth, dish detergent, sponge in the shape of a small drop, crayons, Laminator and laminating pages.
Craft: Lamb mask- Using a paper plate, cut holes for the eyes, staple ears on the sides, and staple string on the back. Have the kids glue cotton balls to the front of the mask.
I had a great time with this lesson. The red paint and the sin ouchie band-aids added a lot of interest (I don’t recommend rubbing too hard. My “helper” is not always so helpful, but his heart is in the right place.) . In this lesson, I’m trying to show the link between the Old and New Testament as God’s plan of redemption unfolds into salvation. I start at Lent every year walking through the staples of the faith (These are the lessons that are repeated.) Easter is just one day and to cover all of what happened at that time is too much. I’m trying to present a “bigger picture” using things they know like ouchies and band-aids. I think I got the right radio of paint to dish detergent this time. Good thing, I didn’t want to go to fellowship time with a red dot on my forehead.

1Oracle* concerning Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum of Elkosh.
and all the rivers he dries up.
and boulders break apart before him.
and pursues his enemies into darkness.
the one about to bring total destruction?
No opponent rises a second time!
like dry stubble, they are utterly consumed.
they* shall be mown down and disappear.
I will humble you no more.
I will make your grave a dung heap.
* [1:1] Oracle: (Heb. Massa’) a word used frequently to describe a prophetic statement against a foreign nation or occasionally Israel; it is used favorably for Israel in Zec 12:1 and Mal 1:1. Nahum of Elkosh: Nahum means “comfort.” Elkosh is a clan or village of unknown location, perhaps in southern Judah.
* [1:2–8] A poem written in the style of the alphabetic psalms (cf. Ps 9; 25; 111; 119) in which each verse unit begins with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The second half of the alphabet is not represented here.
* [1:2] A jealous…God: see note on Ex 20:5.
* [1:3–6] In stormwind: the power of God is often pictured by natural forces and cosmic disruption (Ex 19:9–25; Ps 18:8–16; 104:1–9).
* [1:4] Bashan, Carmel, and Lebanon were famous for their mountainous terrain and lush forests.
* [1:6–7] When God comes in judgment those who oppose God will be destroyed, and those who trust in God will be saved.
* [1:10] Thorns (Is 34:13), drunkenness (Lam 4:21; Na 3:11), and burning stubble (Ob 18) are all images of the judgment of God’s enemies.
* [1:11] From you…giving sinister counsel: addressed to Nineveh, the capital city of Sennacherib, king of Assyria, who besieged Jerusalem ca. 700 B.C.
* [1:12–13] They: the enemies of Judah. You: Judah. His yoke: the dominion of the Assyrian king over Judah.
* [1:14] You: the king of Assyria.
a. [1:3] Ex 34:6–7; Jl 2:13.
b. [1:6] Is 30:27–28; Zep 1:15.

Nurrghhh I bloody love this woman, you tell the lying ratbags what you think. I fought the war for these money grabbing lying buggers! I notice this image was not on the news then why would it be? They seem to dislike the truth these days.
Leaders? These so-called bloody politicians couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery. Even if they did you would probably have to fill out a form and wait three weeks to get a pint, then it would cost you £50. Selfish, fraudulent greedy little buggers. Nurggghhhhhh!

Most of my work was completed at customers houses. I drove my own vehicle and was left to my own devices throughout the day. The workplace environment was friendly and approachable, although sometimes I had to go to the store just to print off a daily schedule which could just as easily been emailed. Overall, the job was enjoyable and an easy fit as part-time.
A typical days work was from 9:00 am until 5:30 pm. The management was quite poor, but very nice. They trusted their employees to get the job done. Also if you were good at your job the management would gladly give you time off when you wanted it.
Fun work environment....sometimes. Very reactive rather than proactive. Very little room to advance, friends tend to get the best jobs. Minimal pay increases regardless of performance.
Your coworkers are what make the job enjoyable!
Management could have been improved. The customer always comes first, even if they are being abusive throughout their journey in the store. You could work there for over 5 years and not receive one raise. The products they buy to sell to customers are marked up to a ridiculous amount which causes most customers to shy away from purchasing those products - which causes the company to go bankrupt and do mass layoffs, the majority of the employees laid off are usually the most valuable and hard working.
They have good staff parties though. Your coworkers; the people you see everyday, become your family, you will be sad to leave them.
A fun old department store with an eclectic feel. Locally owned and operated but brings people in from all over the world. Sales positions can be physically demanding at times but definitely rewarding work.
There is an atmosphere of terror, with the management spying on the staff to catch them in wrong doing.
There are no regular performance reviews and increases in wages are rare if ever forthcoming.
You only ever hear from the management if you have made a mistake, never when you have performed well.
Employees were great, nice, funny, helping and understanding. We worked together as a team and I learned a lot about proper ways to organize clothing and shoes and also how to measure and cut fabric correctly.
Good challenges and learning curves.
Great outdoors job, friendly staff (management and coworkers).
Using forklift, loading and unloading trailers.
Assisting customers with their purchases to their vehicles.
Very professional, understanding and very thorough with work assignments.
New and updated ways of inventory processing, deliveries and inter store merchandising.
Nothing work related, just having to leave when my seasonal position came to an end!
Working outdoors for one and being able to work in an environment (using my skills and experience) with a great bunch of people and a great employer.
Great place to work. I was excepted almost right way from everyone! Relaxed surroundings! I just would like everyone to know I like working there.
An iconic Victoria business. The work pace can be intense but the staff is very supportive. Job descriptions are very loose and most of us have developed great flexibility. Large numbers of customers daily with many different demands and styles develop some very good customer service and conflict management skills. Everybody from the owner to the front line are very hands on.
Retail sales environment in a well established store. Working directly with the customers and general public is always the best part of this occupation. Great co-workers and a family owned business.
Now owned by the original family once again, the owner(s) are quite nice people and fair to work for.

Check out home inspection reviews from some of our past clients. At Certified Home & Property Inspection LLC, we take pride in serving you. Leave us a comment or review regarding your home inspector using any of the links below.
Chris was both friendly and professional during the inspection. He spotted several items I would not have noticed on my own, and I am grateful for the time he took to inspect the property thoroughly. He offered me a great rate, and was able to make the appointment exactly when I needed him. Would definitely recommend his services to others.
Chris Inspected a “well seasoned” home I hoped to purchase in Kent. As was expected, the findings were extensive. As a result of his thorough inspection and explanation, I was able to prioritize the items requiring immediate attention and identify which items needed remedy repairs before continuing with the purchase of the home.
Chris personally answered my call to schedule. He was able to arrange the inspection at a time that I could attend, and worked within the timelines of my purchase contract. With his expertise, he was able to inspect all aspects of the home I needed inspected in the same visit and estimated the inspection time at about 3 hours. Chris was patient and took the time to speak with me and explain the process and arrangements.
At the time of inspection, he arrived just ahead of schedule and was friendly and efficient. He allowed me to follow him through the inspection and explained his process and findings as we went. He left no stone unturned, remaining focused on the inspection and completed the inspection right on the time estimated. He delivered the completed inspection report electronically within a day. I feel that the time and attention he gave the inspection and the fantastic detailed report provided were worth far more than the fee I paid for his service.
The thorough inspection service and report he provided were far superior those of my previous home inspections with other inspectors. I appreciated that he reasonably assessed the condition of the home given its age and educated me at the level appropriate to my knowledge and experience along the way. I was very pleased and I will definitely keep his number on hand for future use and referral. Exceptional quality and value, thank you!
Chris was great to work with for my home inspection. At first I thought I would have to involve more than one company, but Chris was able to take care of all three test; general home inspection, wood destroying insects, and radon gas. He was knowledgeable on current building codes and was able to explain what wasn’t up to code in my house, weather it was a major safety concern or not, and the proper way to fix it. He made suggestions on how to make my home more energy efficient and was able to answer questions my insurance agent had about the house. His final report was very thorough and clear. I couldn’t be happier with the service he provided.
Chris was very helpful and very thorough in his inspection. He explained everything to me clearly that he found. He was also very friendly and I would definitely call them again. Thanks, Chris.

I would highly recommend this provider. Chris was very professional and thorough. He spent a significant amount of time on the inspection for a good price, and I feel very confident nothing was overlooked. He answered many questions for us on site the day of the inspection, and was prompt in providing an overall report including pictures. He was also very responsive to follow-up questions we had after receiving the report. In summary, Chris provides a very good inspection service while being realistic about what is a safety issue or major concern, verses just something you probably want to be aware of.
Chris did his job fully, the inspection took 4 hrs and he checked every bit of the house. He also takes pictures of the problem and is very helpful.
Chris is an excellent inspector, very professional and knowledgeable. We have used he’s services several times now and definitely it is worth the investment.
Well. He showed up on time, was courteous and walked us through the whole inspection and answered any question we had.

In case not received any email , you should make a complain and will start receiving in the future.
@jackal…….If you shop during the period exclusively for First Citizen members , you will have to give your First Citizen card. But if you shop later and pay by GV’s , you will not get any points in your First Citizen card ( you get points only when you pay by cash or credit card ) and person at the counter may just tell you that card is not required as you wouldn’t get the points. But still insist to enter your card details Because that will take your shopping into account of gross shopping and help you reach Golden glow status which I guess is Rs.40000 lifetime shopping ( long way but everything adds up ).
you do not accrue points in your First Citizen card.
Oh…ok dint know these about the startup credit. I was assuming the points accrue for GVs also. Then I guess I just blew my 200 bucks on the First Citizen card. Coz I aint intend shopping by anything there other than GVs Have a few of them now that I got through the tradus deal last year at a 30% discount. Will use them.
Wonderful information….will be visiting SS over the weekend to check out the best offers. Mostly interested in apparels and perfumes. Any specific brands to look for?
you can salvage something in parking charges as it’s free for FC card holders if they buy something.

Yasunori Mitsuda is no stranger to Celtic-influenced music with Eastern undertones. With KiRite, an album of music to accompany a 52 page story by Masato Kato (which is provided but is in Japanese), Mitsuda once again delves into what he does and knows best.
“Is KiRite Burning Up?” opens the album with an acoustic guitar gently playing to the vocal delights of Eri Kawai. After the beautiful introduction, we are treated to a military-paced Celtic charge led by an electric guitar with echoing vocals. It all reminds me of how I pictured the Chrono Trigger arranged album should have been had it not tried to straddle ten genres all at once. An excellent opener and all the instruments are live. “The Market in Volfinor” passes Celtic by at the start for a more middle-Eastern feel to open with. A whistling intro gives way to beautiful percussive bells and more acoustic guitar chords. Once the drums and violin break out, however, it reminds me of a typical village theme to a game. However, instead of using loops, because the instrumentation is live the themes can move and flow freely like water and not just do two repetitions and end. This piece never sits still and is an amazing piece of composing.
“Promise with Winds ~ Petals’ Whereabouts” sounds like a downtempo rock ballad. Eri Kawai’s vocals shine on this track as she sings with little reverb to distort her unlike the first track. It’s a difficult song to pull off because of the various chord changes in the chorus but the end result is a very pleasing one. “The Forest of Lapis Lazuli” uses one of my favourite instruments, a hammered dulcimer, to lay the background tune out with a guitar while the violins and tin whistles carefully soar the main tune out for everyone. This piece could have came straight from Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles for its use of more ancient instruments. Similarly, it also reminds of the style Mitsuda adopted for Haka no Niwa. “The Azure” is another vocal song, but this time it is a Celtic-influenced uptempo folk piece. The chorus is particularly catchy.
“Scorning Blade” for the first time takes a darker route in music. Using various ambient percussion and very low tone monk style hummings for the first half, it suddenly transforms into a solomn piano piece which aches the heart. A song of two halves and quite unusual at that. “Upon the Melodies of the Moon” is an a capella version of the main theme heard in several songs. Beautifully presented. “Fated Encounter ~ The Fall of Darkness” now reminds me of the Shadow Hearts arranged album (although Kirite came out first) because of the way how the guitar pounds out riff after riff with vocal moanings and piercing bagpipes all competing for your attention. Previously it reminded me completely of a band called “Secret Garden” and it still does to this day. Another excellent piece again.
“Nocturne” is a beautiful piano and violin piece which gives warmth before “As Autumn Passes Away” ups the pace with an uptempo number with a slightly mysterious but compelling twist to it. “The Snow Howling” is a strange piece — the main violin is very much in the foreground of the speakers but everything seems to be very much distanced and almost in slow motion. Once the drums join the violin, it makes more sense giving the effect of a tough stamina reducing journey. “Prayer Tree” is a piano- and acoustic guitar-led piece with various other instruments making up the percussive line. “The Name of Our Hope” provides the final vocal song. Choosing another upbeat song (I assume the story has a happy ending!), Eri Kowai once again shows her strong vocal talent to what is a full band version of the piano piece from “Scorning Blade”. It sounds completely different but you can still hear the link which is great. “Circle of Infinity” is a short piano reprise of the previous track to end a stunning album.
This whole soundtrack is classic Mitsuda. There is not one poor track on this collection and it has quickly become one of my favourite soundtracks. I liken it in style and music composition to Legaia Duel Saga in the way the songs are written and the instruments used. If you enjoyed that soundtrack, think of an arrangement of that with real instruments and you’re some way to describing KiRite. A superb classic and a must buy for all music fans.

Finally a new release of MAME4ALL Dingux - it's up to version 1.2 now.
- Added A320 screen brightness option to frontend.
- Fixed bug with games containing multiple FM sound systems. Was allocating two identical FM tables and segmentation faulting when on exit (trying to free the same table of memory twice). This stops some games crashing on exit.
- More speed and smaller executable. Perhaps some of the larger games may run now?
See the included "whatsnew.txt" for complete details.
If you have any questions, please refer to the "readme.txt" and "faq.txt" first! 99% of questions can be answered in here if you look first. By all means, ask if you are unsure.
I, Robot runs really nicely now.
So does Bubble Bobble, though still needs a bit of overclock to run at 100%.
Hey, it's got 3x Z80s and 1x M6801 to emulate!
Parodius was the first game I got running back in v1.0.
I still have more planned for the next release of MAME4ALL Dingux so stay tuned! As always, more speed and more compatibility.

Norwegian musical stylist John Erik Kaada created this thankful album two years ago. Fresh on the heels of the critical success – limited to the Norwegian press – of his trio Cloroform, a group that mixed jazz-funk groove with rock and electronic music novelty. From the beginning, Kaada’s solo debut, Thank You for Giving Me Your Valuable Time, amazed all of Scandinavia with its Beck-like masterpieces of sampledelica. Fortunately for us, an unknown party mailed a copy of the album to the folks at Mike Patton’s Ipecac label. Where Beck has been known to use his heavy-handed sample funk as a vehicle for his fake Dadaist rants, Kaada avoids all that and in a sense keeps a purity to his artful plunder. Even without charismatic nonsense, Kaada’s record spins a categorically magical web of desirable nostalgia, and it is easy to see how the Ipecac label fell in love.
Kaada collaborator and member of the Harlem Gospel Choir. “Burden” makes a heartbreaking soundtrack out of what seems to be the entire concept of burden itself. He uses different screaming-falsetto vocal samples and breathy distorted unintelligible vocal lines that act as trumpets, all over a background that switches smoothly from a standard 50’s rock/soul progression to an epic neo-romantic set of gut-wrenching chord changes. “All Wrong” takes the mono-harmonic vamp of electro-jazz, over 12 bar blues (actually taken from his own Cloroform project) and features more falsetto singing, this time from the Bee Brothers’ “Sing.” “Honk” is an inclusive 60’s soul party to which you feel you have been invited (and you have to dance! Motherfucka dance!) with Alan Steed contributing original vocals once again. The only pre-requisite for the party is that you’re “a good person” and like your soul with a funky-fun horn section. “I Need You,” follows the party so you can cool off and pairs military-meets-the-funk drum rolls with a rest-your-weary-feet lover’s blues sample taken from Czechoslovakian avant-jazzist, Józef Skrzek’s BBE.
Kaada’s merit goes beyond mere soul rediscoveries. “Mainframe,” pays 60’s surf-style tribute to the human “mainframe [that] keeps things together.” With samples from Climax’s “My Momma Got the Beat” Kaada layers harmonica Elvis-like “baby’s” and big kahuna beats to provide a background for his mantra “She is My Mainframe,” which he performs with a mixture of rock star soul and Kraftwerk fervor. “Black California” takes its inspiration from an obscure 70’s film of the same name. It takes on 50’s and 60’s onomatopoeia and reinvents them in early 70’s grooviness. “No You Don’t” is a haunting track that sounds like it could have a place on one of Radiohead’s more recent albums. Soul-penetrating falsetto lyrics sing “please don’t ever leave me/ If you do, I’ll go crazy.” The repeated minor key cadence seems to move forward over visual terrain while a tale-telling accordion and bassline drive the vocalist along. “Go Brown” is a nightclubbing, hipster gigue that has instructive sounding samples about Dane, Mr. Oscar Brown, but I have no idea since the vocals seem to be in Danish?

One day after Will Ferrell appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers and dished about Mariah Carey and her behavior on the set of his new movie The House, more tea is being spilled.
Co-star Cedric Yarbrough posted on Facebook Wednesday evening that Carey “ruined” her cameo and because of her unprofessional behavior, it had to be cut from the film.
Hey team! This is a long one so bare with me. Okay since Will Ferrell is talking, I’ma talk-ing. Yeah, a real funny cameo was SUPPOSED to happen in the new film #TheHouse with the superstar Mariah Carey. But it was ruined by superstar Mariah Carey.
The film takes place in a suburban home but is made into a ‘Casino’. Why not have Mariah be an act in the casino? Funny idea. It’s rumored that she eventually showed up to set. This is true. But after waiting for her for 3-4 hours!
While we waited the director & team had the idea of doing a stunt that Mariah’s body double would do now & bring in Mariah to match it. They do the stunt. All goes well. When Mariah finally showed up she refused to match the stunt. “Darling, I would never do it that way…”. I heard her say those exact words. She then requested a large fan for her hair to be blown around and a camera that would be above her, basically a crane shot.
This lady was unprofessional & borderline abusive to our director, who tried his best to appease her every wish. In the acting community, it’s not very good form to ‘tell’ on your fellow actors. They could be having a bad day, going through some personal things, & maybe Mariah was, I don’t know. But I do know that our crew didn’t deserve that, our director didn’t. Hell, I’d just come off shooting 10 HOURS on ‘Speechless’ just to get there and wait. This kind of behavior just isn’t cool.
I’m not even going to tell you the worst part. (i will if i see you in person & if i deem you ‘cool’). For you young actors, be on time, know your homework, but be courteous and respectful. For us old heads, the same. This kind of behavior should be called out for what it is.
I miss “I had a vision of love” Mariah. Be a damn professional.
If you don’t care what the critics have to say about Mimi, then head here where you can buy her merch for Pride Month.

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 16, 2019 / The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against United Microelectronics Corp. ("United Microelectronics" or "the Company") (NYSE: UMC) for violations of §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Investors who purchased the Company's shares between October 28, 2015 and November 1, 2018, inclusive (the ''Class Period''), are encouraged to contact the firm before May 13, 2019.
According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. United Microelectronics entered into a conspiracy with Fujian to steal trade secrets from Micron related to the R&D of DRAM. The Company hired former Micron employees specifically to steal research and trade secrets from Micron. These activities put the Company at risk of criminal investigation by the U.S. government. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about United Microelectronics, investors suffered damages.
