![]() Even by then, you'll still feel as if you've just witnessed something uniquely funny and stylistically exceptional. Besides, this film's temperament so lighthearted and fancy-free, that you probably won't even realize that you've just watched an intelligent woman get swept off her yummy feet by a floppy-haired space mannequin with a detachable head for at least a couple of hours after it's over. But don't worry, the question is barely audible. Right is a delightfully offbeat romantic comedy from director Susan Seidelman that repeatedly asks the question: Can love flourish naturally between a woman and a machine without it seeming perverted and sad? Now that may seem like a weird question for a film to being asking on a regular basis. John Malkovich as Dr.A film rife with enough quirky actresses to fill a mid-size sedan, fishnet stockings in every other frame, and uncircumcised android cock,* Making Mr. Right was a big commercial flop, considering its relatively high budget of $9 million. Greeted with mixed to negative critical response, Making Mr. This problem gets worse with the casting: Malkovich, who is an intelligent actor, lacks sex appeal, and thus is unable to project the wild, irresistible sexuality that is required to pull off such a fable. Having a bright woman, such as Frankie, fall in love for an android strains any–even moviesh–credibility. During sex, Ulysses gets so excited that his head screws around backward and his body short-circuits and falls apart. As the android Ulysses, he walks in a stiff-kneed Frankenstein stagger, his mouth frozen in a dumb grin. Peters, who hates and fears women, Malkovich talks in a droning, pedantic voice. John Malkovich, in an offbeat casting choice, plays both the prissy scientist who constructs the android in his own image, and the android itself. The opening scene, which shows a pressured Frankie shaving her legs while driving to work, presents a comic view of modern working woman. ![]() Right offers some incidental pleasures: The Miami atmosphere, a mixture of Jewish and Cubano (Se Habla Yiddish, a store sign reads) is a corrective to Miami Vice’s stylish glaze. Seidelman thus repeats Mel Brooks’s schtick of using the big penis of a monster in Young Frankenstein, albeit without the humor and obscenities and Madeline Kahn’s high-pitched thrills in Brooks’ picture The android’s wide-eyed amazement–a boy in the body of a grown man (with a big penis)–makes him desirable. The film’s message is kneejerk feminist at its most cynical, suggesting men are so inadequate they have to be manufactured by women. The other male characters are priggish, self-centered, and sexually inept. But unlike the 1985 romantic, this film lacks charm and the casting is flawed.Īs co-written by Floyd Byars and Laurie Frank, the movie is supposed to provide commentary on modern relationships: Real men are so repulsive that women prefer androids who are sweet and open about their feelings. Right is a high-concept indie: The text relies on the notion of mistaken identity-a robot who develops a heart. Like Desperately Seeking Susan, Making Mr. On the surface, the narrative is a feminist version of the popular Frankenstein myth.įrankie (Ann Magnuson) is hired to socialize an android astronaut called Ulysses (John Malkovitch), and over the objections of his inventor, does such good a job of humanizing him that she falls for him. Right, a satire about the relationship between a public relations expert and her robot. The studios wanted her to remake versions and variations of the 1985 comedy over and over again, but instead, she chose to direct Making Mr. ![]() After her breakthrough indie comedy, Desperately Seeking Susan, Seidelman got bigger production budgets at her disposal–and commercial pressures to match. With 12 possible types of ghosts found in Phasmophobia, we had to find enough evidence to figure out what ghost James Walker was and complete enough objectives to make money for new tools.Īn ouija board was spotted after wandering around and calling out “James Walker” aimlessly by one of our group members, who wanted to try asking a question. The first few minutes went smoothly, we explored the house and attempted to scare one another, which did not help my nerves but was funny nonetheless. With our flashlights and EMF readers, we were dropped off at a random house to locate a ghost named James Walker. If you’re lucky though, they might appear and not attack you despite hearing their names. Specifically, if you say their names, ghosts will sometimes become angered and attempt to hunt you down. In addition to being able to communicate with your friends if they’re within your vicinity, ghosts can also hear what you’re saying. It’s about as realistic as a virtual ghost hunt could be.Īnother part of the game that makes it so realistic is its access to your microphone. Ghosts are located in a variety of locations that you can explore and you receive money for any evidence you discover and for identifying the ghost’s type. The game starts out very straightforward: you go through a tutorial on your own that shows you how to pick up objects, what you’re doing with ghost hunts, information about ghosts, and general controls you should know. I’ve always had a weak stomach for horror movies and games, so I tend to stay away from these things, but I was determined to conquer my fear of the unknown, and what better way to do that than by playing with three other people? The game is also playable on virtual reality headsets (VR), allowing people with VR headsets to experience the ghost hunt in an even more realistic setting.ĭue to the general success of this game and a few friends who were nagging, I decided to try this game myself. ![]() The general premise of the game centers around ghost hunts, which you can either complete by yourself or with three other friends in a co-op style mission. The indie game Phasmophobia, released by Kinetic Games in September, has gained popularity and received attention from several streamers online as well as players at home. Phasmophobia has received high ratings on several gaming platforms for its psychological horror and realism. Phasmophobia is the fear of ghosts–and this game will certainly make you scared. ![]() Because they don't have the time, energy, or knowledge necessary to construct even the most basic healthy meal at home. Which was entirely my point, fast food is so cheap and easy to get, most of the lowest income earners will end up hitting that place rather than cooking things themselves. Just that they don't eat there all the time. ? I'm not saying that the Rich don't eat there. Rich (Exploitators) don't eat this trash. totally.īecause "Fast food" for poor peoples.

Oh, and ram the crap out of your opponents and turn them to scrap" with the physics being about as cartoony as they can without becoming Mario Kart. ![]() ![]() It's not a ultra-realistic hyper physics-tastic driving game where you zoom around and have to ensure that you break properly and downshift etc to get around a corner without spinning out, while tweaking every little thing on your car to ensure you get the best performance. not in terms of actual gameplay or anything, but what it represents. Most Wanted is probably the one that tickles me the most. I think if Cd projekt teamed up with somebody who knew how to do menus and just UI interface better, they'd have a SIGNIFICANTLY better game overall that'd earn a lot of fans.īeen Playing WoW (obviosly), Battlefield 3, Black Ops, and the new Need For Speed: Most Wanted. I liked Witcher 2, but it did need serious help when it came to the combat system. ![]() Nor does stupidity and propaganda create truth from thin air, in the face of studies. a more current claim than that of the Jewish peoples. So you're saying that the Jewish people should keep their rights to the land they'd been forced off of a millennium ago because of a "homeland" claim from that time? What makes THEIR "homeland" inherently THEIRS rather than anyone else's? I mean, what's to claim that I should own Ireland because I can trace my bloodline back to an King there? It's my ancient homeland that my family ruled 1000 years ago. Why do the Palestinians have more historical right to the land that Israel is now on, and also even if some people have been converted to Judaism why don't the Jews have a right to the same land? Can you provide proof that the Palestinians are the "rightful " inheritors of the land, as they were also converted to Islam? Your link you provided states this when it says "Just as most contemporary Christians and Muslims are the progeny of converted people" ĭidn't the Moors and the Ottomans also conquer and subjugate many nations and civilizations, didn't they also convert people to Islam? But once again no one has answered my question. One tribe, yeah! More you can find easily in numerous anthropological and historical investigations. Chinese Jews are Asians and Ephiopic Jews are Africans. Bucharian Jews have Central Asian origin, while Kavkaz Jews looks like other Kavkaz ethnicities. Ashkenazy is converted Slavs, Germans or Khazars. Jews aren't tribe or ethnicity, it's just someone converted into Jeudaism. I'm confused, aren't Jews originally from a tribe that lived in that land from thousands of years ago? What makes the Palestinians claim to the area more valid than the Jews? ![]() I had a cystoscopy and even an MRI of my urinary tract but my symptoms were unexplainable. I became insomniac for the first time in my life and developed horrendous anxiety, unlike anything I had ever experienced before. Despite this, the symptoms grew increasingly more debilitating I developed severe pelvic pains, my bladder felt as if it was constantly on fire and I would have to go the toilet between 20-30 times/day. Two weeks after the last pill I began to experience symptoms of a urinary tract infection. The doctor said I could taper off in two weeks and all would be fine. I thought it was about time I come off the Sertraline, thinking it didn’t do much anyway. I made friends and had met someone who loved me for who I was. The years passed and in 2012 I was thriving. The only time I ever noticed that the drug was actually having an impact on my body was when I forgot to take it, I would immediately become dizzy, light headed, nauseous and I would get a throbbing headache. The antidepressant didn’t make me happier nor did it make me more depressed. I should say that the antidepressant didn’t ever give any side-effects besides that I developed nystagmus, a rapid eye movement that would appear once in a while whilst reading or focusing my eyes on a close object. I took the pill every day for four years, never questioning the young doctor’s diagnosis. I left his office with a prescription of the antidepressant Sertraline in my hands. Sure, it was simple! I needn’t worry about it. He further explained that I had an imbalanced brain chemistry that needed to be fixed. My emotions and analytic thoughts were the symptoms of these underlying illnesses. According to his bible, I fit the description of a “socially anxious” and “dysthymic” patient perfectly. Life changed in a secondĪfter a mere ten minute chat the psychiatrist, a young and friendly, certainly well-meaning man, opened his DSM-IV and labeled me then and there, changing the course of my life in the fraction of a second. Engaging in relationships with my peers had become more and more difficult and upon well-meaning advice from a family member I went to see a psychiatrist. I was on a quest for meaning and was reflecting upon life and our existence in this world, but not necessarily in a negative way. I was 20 years old at the time and had moved eight times in my short life, changed countries twice and had become increasingly more lonely and timid. But unfortunately I will recall this summer for other, less glorious, reasons. My first encounter with psychiatry and the “mental health” system was in the summer of 2008. ![]() Their edgy, abrasive and powerful guitar-driven racket combined melodic songs that paid witness to Hince’s obsession with low-life living and crime (the band took their name from Nicodemo Scarfo, the boss of an infamous Philadelphia crime family).Īfter the very promising couple of singles, 'ELO' and 'Alkaline,' the band released their second album, 'Luxury Plane Crash' in August 1997. This brought them to the attention of Steve Lamacq's Deceptive Records and he wasted no time in signing them and releasing their self-titled mini-album in December 1995. The trio soon moved up to the capital and recorded their debut single, 'Skinny' b/w 'Lifeline', for Fierce Panda in May 1995. Scarfo were formed at the tail-end of Britpop in Andover, Hampshire back in 1994 by ex-Goldsmith's College drama graduate Jamie Hince (vocals, guitar) along with Nick Prior (bass) and Al Saunders (drums). ![]() ![]() Luxury Plane Crash (Deceptive - BLUFF 045CD, 1997).

Following on from Part 1, Denzil Watson continues his trawl through obscure and lost indie albums from the last four decades. ![]() Unfortunately, however, there is still a large, unmet need for safe and effective treatments for many conditions. Ungar: The field of dermatology has made tremendous advances in the last several years in treating many inflammatory skin diseases. ![]() ![]() Healio: What challenges do you face regularly in practice that keep you up at night? It really highlighted and hammered home the point that AD, and likely other inflammatory skin diseases, have systemic inflammation that can impact the whole body. We assessed these patients using PET/MRI, which can measure active cardiovascular inflammation, and we found that it was elevated in these patients. The third study looked at patients with moderate to severe AD in regard to cardiovascular inflammation. It’s an area of ongoing research that we’re very excited about and interested in, identifying those patients and coming up with treatments targeting that type 2 inflammation in alopecia areata. ![]() We’re beginning to recognize that alopecia areata, for many people, may be a part of the atopic spectrum of diseases. The second study that I was fortunate to be involved in was a profiling study of scalp tissues in alopecia areata where we initially characterized the inflammation seen in the disease and first pointed to type 2 inflammation playing a role in its disease process. That was very significant because it greatly improved our understanding of the disease process in atopic dermatitis how biomarkers in skin and blood were modulated by a very effective targeted treatment. First, we published the first study of biomarkers in using dupilumab (Regeneron Pharmaceuticals/Sanofi-Aventis) to treat moderate-to-severe AD. Three of the studies I’ve participated in have been particularly interesting and exciting to me. My research has focused thus far mostly on atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata, and I have been expanding my efforts into a few other diseases such as seborrheic dermatitis. Ungar: Broadly speaking, my clinical and research focus specialization is in inflammatory skin diseases, as well as how the immunology of the skin relates to the systemic components of the diseases that we study. Healio: Do you have a particular area of dermatology that you enjoy the most? Many different aspects of dermatology came together as really a great fit for me. Ungar: Although dermatology wasn’t the primary specialty on my radar when I entered medical school, as I was exploring different specialties, I came to increasingly realize that it is a great fit for me in terms of the kinds of diseases we treat, the broad range of different patients who suffer from skin conditions and the plentiful and available research opportunities. Healio: How did you come to pursue dermatology as your specialty? Healio spoke with Ungar about how his career began, his research breakthroughs and what is next in dermatology treatment. Ungar is assistant professor of dermatology and director of the Rosacea & Seborrheic Dermatitis Clinic and the Alopecia Center of Excellence at Mount Sinai, in addition to being a member of the Healio Allergy/Asthma Peer Perspective Board. “I was actually born at Mount Sinai as well.” “I went to medical school at Mount Sinai and did my residency there, and now I’m a faculty member,” Ungar told Healio.

SEO PowerSuite is an SEO software that includes four main tools: #1. ![]() The rough texture is characteristic of historic homes, and one cannot replicate it using drywall. Sophisticated finish: One can use plaster to achieve a sophisticated look because it can deliver textured, glossy or smooth finishes.Plaster also has higher tensile strength and helps make structures more stable, unlike drywall. This makes plaster an ideal choice when building for the long term. Durable: Plaster is more durable than drywall because of its thickness.Energy-efficient: The thickness of plaster walls makes them more energy efficient because they provide better temperature control and insulation.STC is used to measure the material's soundproofing qualities. Research conducted by the National Gypsum found that an almost 1″ thick lath and plaster wall has a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 52, while 1/2″ drywall on 2×4 wood studs has a rating of only 34. Soundproof: Plaster has a high density, making it more soundproof than drywall.Plastering is done just like stucco is applied to exterior walls. The procedure, however, remains the same. In modern construction, wood lath has been replaced by a metal mesh. The gaps between the strips of wood are then covered by the first coat of plaster, followed by two or three more layers of plaster for a smooth finish. These narrow strips of wood are called wood lath. Traditionally, plastering was done by covering the framing studs with thin strips of wood nailed to the studs horizontally. By the 1940s, however, people began to use drywall, and plaster gradually lost its popularity. Gypsum and water eventually gained popularity across Europe, and this type of plaster became typical of the Middle Ages. The early Indians and Chinese used a mixture of clay and gypsum to plaster over stone or brick walls, creating a smoother surface. ![]() People in ancient India and China also practiced plastering. ![]() The use of plaster can be traced back to 7500 BC, when lime-based plaster was used in buildings in Jordan. This paste is applied in layers onto narrow strips of wood or metal known as laths and allowed to dry after application. It is used as a coating to either protect or decorate walls. Plaster is a paste made from cement, sand, water, and minerals. ![]() If you’ve purchased a Prezibase Classic template, and need it for Prezi Next, drop us a message and we’ll get you a Prezi Next version in no time.
