One of ESEA's top six teams has made a change only a day before the playoffs.
Excello, an organization which made major inroads into the Counter-Strike scene, picking up Finnish astralis for their European squad and only months later picked up the former Blight Gaming roster after they were released following ESEA's first LAN finals last season, has announced that there will be changes in the roster right before the second ESEA LAN finals in Dallas Texas.
They have decided to release David "savi0r" Park and Demir "wrd" Decevic from the roster in order to make room for Jason "jstone" Caposello and Zeus "demos" Wu in hopes that this lineup will allow for better play in the upcoming LAN and online events.
The Excello organization said that the team was also having internal issues, but they did not explain the issue.
"Instead of sitting on a growing problem, the team decided the best action would be to bring in players who are better friends not only inside of the game, but outside of the game."
Team captain CJ "cJ_B" Banarsee said that he has "played with everyone on my current roster throughout my CS career. I never had the opportunity to play with this specific 5 together. I have faith in each of these players and I think this could be the change we needed to push us to the next level. We're going to be putting in work before ESEA Invite LAN Playoffs and I expect a good performance from this team. We're all young determined players, with the same goals. I can't wait until our upcoming LAN's!"
Excello Roster:
CJ "cJ_B" Banarsee
Zeus "demos" Wu
Jason "jstone" Caposello
Alex "hazard" Martins

You might say the retail game finally reached a tipping point when Warby Parker, the online-born fashion eyewear company, opened its first of several physical showrooms. This reversal in the retail model - moving from online to in-store, rather than the other way around - raises a core question about today's digitally savvy shopper habits: what is the point of physical retail?
The most obvious point of physical retail is to sell products. And, for the most part, bricks-and-mortar stores do a great job of moving product and making money. In 2013, retail ecommerce only made up about 7% of all retail commerce in the US, per the Department of Commerce. Kantar Retail analysts predict this number will double to 14% by 2020, a significant increase, but still substantially less that retailers sell in physical stores.
Yet, while ecommerce isn't projected to reach majority share of shopper wallets in the near future, the online shopping experience has already won a considerably large share of shoppers' time sent using their devices. For example, Kantar data tells us the following:
Plus, while 2013 holiday spending remained flat, the amount spent buying gifts online actually rose from $280 in 2012 to $288.
Kantar Digital analyst Bryan Gildenberg was interviewed by BBC to discuss the marketing implications of the changing shopping dynamics. Gildenberg asserts that many traditional retailers today have done somewhat of a good job becoming "multi-channel" in their attempt to begin capturing online shoppers. However, he says, "multi-channel" is no longer a significant differentiator. The best retailers are now "omni-channel" and have connected every possible shopper touch point.

When i first got these subs from sonic i noticed that there were only a pos. and neg, terminal for both subs so that you have to either have a mono channel amp or bridge the amp. Over all i am very satisfied with them i set off car alarms all the time. Great enclosure as well no other place beats the price with a warranty.

Love this color combination so much I had to use it again. I am still having having fun making my own embossing plates. Can you tell? for this one i used the cloud dies from PTI and then rubbed chalk around the embossed clouds with my finger using a cloud die cut cloud as a mask to not get chalk on the clouds. It really looks so much better in person, hope that you want to try it. you will LOVE it! I am submitting this to the Die Cutting Challenge over at Moxi Fab World and also The Embossing & Dembossing Challenge also over at Moxi Fab World. Check these challenges out and I am sure you will want to play along too.
It was such a crazy weekend but so fun. My son participated in his first Pinewood Derby and got 4th place for Speed, which is awesome! he was so excited to get a trophy. Our pack does an Outlaw race for the siblings and parents that might want to race and that was such a riot.
Here above is a picture of our cars, Evie's was not complete at this point, we had not added the eyes and antennas. Ethan was the one with the skulls of course, (Ghost Rider) and mine is the pretty one. Everyone kept telling me how beautiful it was, it was so funny.
These are some of the cars Ethan race, he came first at all four of his races, he loved every minute of it. What kid wouldn't? The pirate car won for design.
I had to to take picture of this, don't you love it? the mom put her face on the doll. I am telling you we had a blast. There were so many awesome cars. Look at that little mouse, it was adorable going down the track too, going from one side to the other of the lane. Just like a little mouse.
Now. I had a giveaway last week that ended Friday. I feel so bad that i made you wait this long, so with drum roll please.... the winner picked by Randon.org was # 2. That is you Karen B. Congratulations! This my first giveaway ever...and it was fun. Send me your info Karen and I will send your price over to you right away. Happy Tuesday people.

Union minister Beni Prasad Verma on Friday said BJP leader Sushma Swaraj should stop dreaming about the fall of Congress-led government at the Centre and asserted that the UPA enjoyed support of 305 members in the Lok Sabha.
Talking to reporters in Barabanki, he claimed that NDA did not have the backing of even 105 members.
"UPA government will complete its five-year term as it has the support of 305 MPs, whereas NDA does not even reach the number of 105 MPs," he said.
Verma's comment came against the backdrop of senior BJP leader Sushma Swaraj saying that UPA government will not last beyond the winter session of Parliament.

The chance discovery of a World War II footlocker connects two generations of soldiers though the stories of the past in this earnest war drama starring James Cromwell and Jonathan Bennett. Upon stumbling across his grandfather's war relics, 13-year-old Kyle probes for details about life on the battlefield. At first Bud (James Cromwell) is reluctant to discuss his tour of duty. Eventually, however, he agrees to tell Kyle the stories behind any three objects the curious youngster selects from the footlocker. As he memories come rushing back, Bud finds himself transported back to Europe and reminded of the price he paid in the fight for freedom. Meanwhile, a glimpse into the future reveals how Kyle will use the wisdom gleaned from his grandfather while serving as a sergeant in Iraq and facing the difficult challenges that bond all soldiers as brothers. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Notes from the Authoress
Well, you see, here's how it is. My siblings Stephanie and James are the same ages as Kankurou and Gaara, and I am the same age as Temari. We are basically the Sand Siblings of reality, since we have the same differences between ages and all…and we live in Arizona. So yeah. A lot of my inspiration for fanfiction involving the Sand Siblings comes from things my siblings and I have done. This one is inspired by something Stephanie and I used to do to my dearest brother Jamie-poo.
Roses are red, violets are blue. I don't own Naruto, and neither do you.
Dress Up
One Shot
Temari generally did not spend much time with her little brothers at all, as she had many more important things to do even at the age of five. Besides, Gaara scared her, and unless her Father made her then she was not going near him. Kankurou, on the other hand, was just an annoyance to her. She enjoyed spending time with him when she could, not that she would ever admit it.
So when the woman that was supposed to be watching the four-year-old Kankurou dropped the poor boy in Temari's room, the blonde five-year-old had no idea what to do.
"Onee-chan," Kankurou said in a whiny tone.
"What?" Temari demanded while waving her little fan around. She didn't get many girly toys, especially not dolls, but she had been given her little white fan awhile back and she adored it. She never let it go, but it was becoming worn now. Still, she continued to wave it and try to create currents as if it was brand new.
"I'm bored," The four-year-old whined insistently.
Temari turned to her little brother and glared at him. She folded her fan and stood up, placing her hands on her hips and doing the perfect imitation of an adult. "What do you want me to do about it?"
Kankurou's lower lip started trembling, and Temari felt extremely guilty. She sighed heavily while placing her fan on her bed where it would be safe. "Fine. We can play a game." Instantly her little brother perked up. Temari walked to her closet and opened it, looking at all her outfits. She picked out a dark purple dress and a pair of her most girly sandals before returning to her brother and holding the dress out to him. "Let's play dress up. Put this on."
"But…that's for girls…" Kankurou said slowly, tears welling up in his eyes again.
"Not always," Temari insisted while throwing the dress over his head. "Now put it on, or you can just be bored."
Kankurou sniffled while pulling the dress off his head, but he pulled it on over his clothes without any further protest. He really did like his Onee-chan, even if she wasn't very nice.
"Now the sandals," Temari insisted while dropping the girly monstrosities on the floor. Kankurou slipped his shoes off and replaced them with the too-large sandals. Temari observed him for a moment before walking over to her short dresser and sorting things around on top. She came back with purple face paint and a paintbrush. "I'm gonna do your make up now, okay?" She said cheerfully while showing her brother the face paint and motioning for him to sit down. "It'll look good, I promise."
"Daddy's gonna get mad," Kankurou protested lightly while he sat down on the floor. Temari dropped down in front of him and opened the bottle of face paint.
"We'll just wash it off," The older sibling argued effectively. "Be quiet, though, or it'll smudge," She warned while dipping her paintbrush into the face paint then starting a little pattern on her younger brother's face. He sat there quietly, flinching every once and awhile at the feel of it, but Temari continued as if nothing happened. When she finished, she capped the face paint and looked at Kankurou in a scrutinizing manner. "Purple is definitely your color," She said while reaching over and pulling at some of his short brown hair. "Purple and black anyway, but we need to do something about this hair."
Abandoning her make-up, she stood up and went back to her closet. After several moments of rummaging, she came back with a dark red hat with little kitty ears on top. "This will have to do," She said with a sigh as she pulled the hat on his head, ignoring his surprised cry as she accidentally tugged his hair a little too hard. "We'll need to get you a black one later."
She stepped back after fixing the hat and observed him again. Her brother made such a cute girl, although his hat clashed with his dress, sandals, and make-up. She would make sure that she found him a black hat, maybe a little more boyish, because her Father certainly wouldn't be happy if he found out that she had dressed her brother up like a girl.
As Kankurou started to look bored again, Temari retrieved a small puppet from under her bed. She had found it a few days before, and she never played with it in case someone saw it and took it away. Now she walked over to her brother and held it out to him. "Here. You can have it as long as you don't tell Daddy that we played dress up. Okay?"
Kankurou smiled brightly while snatching the puppet. "Okay," He agreed instantly, starting to untangle the strings. Temari put away her make-up and moved Kankurou's shoes to the side before picking up her fan and sitting in front of him. She waved her favorite toy around several times while glancing every so often at her little brother. He was having the time of his life once he managed to untangle the strings. She couldn't but smile; she liked to see her brother happy.
Ten years later, Kankurou stood in his room staring in the mirror. The dark purple face paint...the completely black outfit, despite the heat, complete with black hat that looked suspiciously as if it had kitty ears, although he vehemently denied it...a marionette strapped to his back.
He couldn't help but smile at his reflection. It was amazing how the little dress-up games he had played with his Onee-chan affected him so, even after all the years. He liked Temari; he liked the colors black and purple; he liked being a puppet master; he liked being different.
Not that he would ever admit it.
Notes from the Authoress
Yes, Stephanie and I did that to James, no, he did not turn out wearing make-up and girl clothes. James is the equivelant to Gaara, but since Temari would so not have the chance to dress up Gaara, it looks like Kankurou gets to be tortured.
:3 This explains so much, though. Please review!

Town & Country, December 2007
'"Most of the entries have pictures, though to me the most interesting gardens are those that cannot be captured in one image. The landscapes that seem to give their all in one sitting, or rely on a lot of bedding annuals for color, those are the one that I will try to live without. In that sense, the book is valuable as well.'"

"A suburban couple becomes embroiled in an international espionage plot
when they discover that their seemingly perfect new neighbors are
government spies. " The comedy of "Keeping Up with the Joneses" comes
from exaggeration. Mottola and screenwriter Michael LeSieur play up a
suburban oasis for Jeff and Karen, with the pair living an idyllic life
in a beautiful home. She's an interior designer, he's a practiced
corporate negotiator, and while their marriage is stable, it's become
flavorless. You've seen these characters before, and the production
does little to disturb expectations, highlighting sexual dysfunction in
the household, with newfound summertime freedom inspiring thoughts of
savage coupling, only to have the pair maintain distance out of habit.
There's no twist, no larger message of love. Jeff and Karen are set up
as cheerful nothings easily overwhelmed by the arrival of Tim and
Natalie, who stun their neighbors with flawless style, beauty, and
sophistication. They're incredible, bewitching the community with tales
of international travel and the display of impressive dart-throwing
Gal Gadot is always good at playing at the sexy lady and Jon Hamm was good at playing his manipulating and sly character. There's hardly any jokes that work in the movie, and if it wasn't for Isla Fisher and Zach Galifianakis's improvisational Comedy it would've flopped big time! The movie had one of the biggest disappointing showdowns we've ever seen. All in all, it's not a disastrous movie, but your best bet is to rent it on Netflix. 5/10. 2/5 stars.
I've got a thing for spy comedies, I've seen most of the recent ones
and many of the older ones. It's a genre so based on plot twists that
most of them can be seen a mile away, especially if you've already seen
some. This one is no different. No real plot twist is really
surprising, including the final joke. And still, I had loads of fun
watching it, because most of the jokes are actually character driven,
and the characters are very well written, and well performed by most.
That is, Isla Fisher, Zach Galifianakis and Jon Hamm, are practically
super. Gal Gadot got the warrior woman with the menacing looks nailed
to the teeth, but is a bit less convincing when she has to be sensitive
or subtle. It doesn't happen often during the movie, so it's not a big
issue, but there are a few moments in which she's off character. But
everybody else around does such a good job, the jokes work, and the
pace is fast enough for us not to care it's not so very surprising.
I liked it, most of the people around me in the cinema liked it too. If you don't expect a masterpiece, just plain simple fun - you'll find it here.
It's a pretty good comedy.
The average Suburban family gets a new neighbors, who are more than what they seem. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Zach Galifianakis and Isla Fisher made a cute couple in the movie. very good comedy duo in an mediocre film.
Jon Hamm is a fantastic straight man for the comedy that Galifianakis was dishing out.
Gal Gadot is impressive. She's the one who has to keep up with the other three and she does a good job. i don't think I've seen her do anything outside the Fast and Furious movies so it was nice to see that she can do something else.
I know i'm sitting here writing about the film, but for the most part there is really is not anything to write about. It gives you enough laughs so I feel like I did not waste my cash, but it's definitely not a movie you'll remember down the road. Nothing spectacular.
I watched this at an advanced screening and didn't have to pay a dime but I feel like they should have given me a refund. A few people walked out during the first hour of the film, I wished I did. Basically, this film is like a made for LifeTime version of Mr & Mrs Smith, expect with a quarter of the action and absolutely none of the humor. All the jokes fall flat and there was literally only ONE TIME everyone in the theater laughed and it had nothing to do with the movie! There is a scene with Gal Gadot in her underwear (it is in the trailer) and someone in the audience yelled "the b#tch ain't got no a$$" and everyone started laughing. Seriously, this is the kind of movie that will just make you mad because of how predictable, pointless and boring it is. Zach Galifianakis is usually a pretty funny dude but his acting seemed lifeless and uninspired, in other words this was purely a paycheck gig for him. Poor Jon Hamm wasn't allowed to be funny in this movie. Isla Fisher looked bored half the time. Gal Gadot is as wooden as ever. All the minor characters are whatever. This movie isn't worth your time. All the "best" parts are in the trailers. Watching this on the big screen will just p!ss you off. If you must see it my advice to you is to walk out after the first 30 minutes, get a refund and watch something else. You'll thank me.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
The Gaffneys' lives are interrupted by the arrival of new neighbours,
whose stunning looks are matched only by the sophistication of their
Tim Jones is an accomplished travel writer, and his wife, Natalie, is a social media consultant, cooking blogger and heroine to Sri Lankan orphans.
The Gaffneys soon find themselves in the centre of international espionage that gives them a glimpse of life outside their comfort zone.........
Keeping Up With The Joneses is one of those comedies that offers absolutely nothing new to the genre of comedy, and basically borrows from films that are a lot better than this, and funnily enough, a lot worse.
If this was made in the eighties, it would have starred Steve Martin and Shelly Long as the atypical suburban couple, and probably Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner as the titular couple, and it would have been an absolute smash, because it would have felt relatively fresh.
Jump forward thirty years, and with films like Mr & Mrs. Smith, Killers, Housesitter, and a never ending plethora of fish out of water comedies, it feels stale, well worn, and relies on the star power of the cast.
The thing is, Galfiniakas is way out of his comfort zone playing the Everyman, and Gal Gadot is incredibly wooden in her role. So much in fact, it's setting the alarm bells ringing for Wonder Woman.
So the couple get into scrapes, find a little excitement in their mundane lives, and just like True Lies, assist in the final 'hilarious' act when special guest star Patton Oswald makes his appearance as the end of game bad guy.
But it isn't a terrible film, there are a couple of amusing moments, and Fisher plays the jittery housewife with panache, but you can't see those two as a couple.
If you want a comedy that is safe, and offers nothing new, then you may get a few giggles out of it.
Otherwise, if you never see this movie, trust me, you've already seen it.
Greetings again from the darkness. Dozens of movies through the years
make up the Spy Action-Comedy segment. Most of these lean heavily on
either action (Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Red, Knight and Day) or comedy
(Austin Powers, Get Smart, Date Night). The latest entry from director
Greg Mottola and writer Michael LeSieur offers a more balanced approach
while being somewhat grounded in familiar suburbia. Perfect casting
certainly helps.
Comedies are the toughest genre to review because the only thing that matters does it cause you to laugh? depends on the sense of humor of each viewer and even their frame of mind while watching. So what I can report is that the full theatre at my screening was filled with enthusiastic laughter multiple times, along with a pretty steady stream of chuckles and giggling. This will undoubtedly vary from the accounts of uppity film critics who will discount the basic plot and obvious laughs (which is the whole point).
A James Bond-type opening credit sequence sets the tone as we abruptly shift to watching Jeff and Karen Gaffney (Zach Galifianakias, Isla Fisher) sending off their two sons to summer camp before returning home to their idealistic cul-de-sac suburban home. Things pick up when the new neighbors, Tim and Natalie Jones, arrive a seemingly perfect couple played by Jon Hamm and Gal Gadot. They are the type of couple who are beautiful to look at, stylishly dressed, and even show up with a blown-glass sculpture as a gift for their new neighbors.
Of course, this perfect couple is really married spies seeking information from the military weapons contractor where Jeff works as a Human Resources associate. It's Karen who senses something is off about the perfect couple, which leads to her stalking Natalie all the way to a dressing room where she is comically intimidated by Wonder Woman in black lingerie. On a side note, Ms. Fisher does have a later sequence where she proves to be anything but a homely housewife, despite how that dressing room scene is presented.
The men head off for some male bonding at a highly unusual specialty restaurant, leading to one of the more manic sequences in the movie. The four leads are all excellent, but it's Gal Gadot who is the real surprise and her scenes with Ms. Fisher are the film's best. Both are allowed to shine, while the men are a bit more one dimensional. Galifianakias is the all-trusting good guy just happy to have some excitement in his life, while Hamm is the super cool spy (who wishes he wasn't). Both men seem to enjoy the chance to make friends, while the women are a bit more focused on tasks at hand.
Director Mottola is known for his films Adventureland and Superbad, and writer LeSieur is best known for Me, You and Dupree. The impressive thing about this latest is that the comedy mostly derives from character and situational interactions, and the expected steady stream of punchlines never materializes. There is even some insight into marriages that have become a bit too predictable, and the challenges of making new friends when all available energy is devoted to parenting and making ends meet.
In addition to the four leads, there are some funny moments for Maribeth Monroe, Matt Walsh and Kevin Dunn. The brilliant Patton Oswalt is cast as the self-nicknamed villain, and is responsible for one of the film's biggest laughs.
Of course, this is not subtle or high-brow humor, and the story line is predictable throughout. The laughs stem from the contrast of a subdued, comfy suburban life versus the sophisticated, over-accomplished jet-setting couple laughs clearly enhanced by the talented leads. So while this seems like the kind of movie I would usually ignore, perhaps it arrives at a time when laughing is simply preferable to the daily grind of an embarrassing and humiliating Presidential race. So go ahead and give laughter a chance it works even better than a stress ball.
Like with many modern comedies, Keeping Up With The Joneses just feels
like an extended version of the trailer. The jokes that are in the
trailer aren't too bad, but the rest of the movie doesn't really offer
anything extra. Jokes aside, the story is fairly simple and
predictable, with all the usual clichés and plot twists, but
fortunately a decent cast makes it bearable.
The main four suit their roles very well. I've never been a fan of Galifianakis, but he's strangely likable, honest and down to earth - as is Fisher, to a slightly lesser extent. Hamm and Gadot are absolutely spot on. They're smooth, suave and sophisticated, though I have to say they are the worst undercover spies ever written - they don't seem to understand the principle of blending in, right from the very start.
So it's not massively funny, though there are a few laughs. The action isn't too dreadful (but the cheap CGI is), but likable characters turn this movie from disaster into very mild amusement.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Wow was this a disappointment. This movie reminds me of the extremely
disappointing "Hail Ceasar", a great Cast, advertised as a comedy but
utterly devoid of anything remotely funny. It is sort of like a horse
race without any horses, a bar that does not serve alcohol, a
basketball game where there is no basketball. Just some people standing
around talking. The first scene telegraphs how this film is going.
There is a meeting between Isla Fisher, Zach Galifanakis and their
neighbors, Matt Walsh and Maribeth Monroe. Monroe talks about a number
of euphemisms for making love. You could tell it was supposed to be
funny and absolutely was not. At all. A portent of things to come.
Fisher and Galifanakis play a boring couple who live in the suburbs.
They are very boring. This is a change of character for Galifanakis,
who usually plays a wild man, think "The Hangover" movies. Here is
broadens his horizons; He plays very boring. Not a good move. The
boring suburban couple only excitement is the new neighbors moving in
next store. They are handsome and sexy, but not funny either. John Hamm
and Gail Gadot try to recreate Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolee in "Mr. and
Mrs Smith" only without the chemistry or wit. The plot is extremely
predictable. Fisher is suspicious of her new neighbors. Galifanakis
works at a top secret defense contractor, but he is clueless as to the
real motives of Hamm. Of course Hamm and Gadot are spies, I mean they
make James Bond look like a butcher. The worst scene is the conclusion.
Walsh is supposed to meet with a crime lord known as "The Scorpion"
played by Patton Oswalt. Spoiler: the big conclusion makes no sense.
The Scorpion pays a suitcase full of cash for some microchips. But he
finds out he is dealing with Galifanakis instead of Walsh, he decides
to shoot him and Fisher. Some questions arise. Why? The Scorpion has
what he wants, who cares who he was dealing with? It would make more
sense if he wanted the cash as well as the microchips. And why was
Fisher there? She wasn't needed and she was put in danger for no
purpose. And then Hamm and Gadot are brought into the standoff with no
explanation. The Scorpion and his goons have all these machine guns and
are ready to kill all four of them. Fisher thrawts that by grabbing a
butter knife, which she sneaks to Gadot. Oh that changes everything,
Gadot has a butter knife which trumps 8 guys with machine guns.
The 4 stars then get away from the goons by jumping out the window into a swimming pool. Everyone know that goons with machine guns are powerless to shoot people who are in a swimming pool. Galifanakis is afraid to jump, until the Scorpion shoots him twice in the chest. Then he decides to jump into the pool. Again, everyone knows that pool water cures bullet wounds in through the heart.
The script is stupid, predictable and unfunny. If you gave a 1000 chimpanzees 1000 typewriters, they would produce 1000 screenplays better than this one. Why 2 stars? The reason I went to see it in the first place. I like all 4 stars. But shouldn't they have been able to tell that the script was not funny or interesting when they read it? How can they make such crap?
"Keeping Up with the Joneses" is one fun and funny feel comedy drama that seems a little unreal still it entertains! Set in Atlanta, Georgia in an area that's nice a suburban couple Jeff(Zach Galifianakis)and Karen(Isla Fisher)seem to have the perfect life then all of a sudden their life is turned upside down by a new couple who move in next door named Tim Jones(Jon Hamm)and Natalie(Gal Gadot). Soon strange things start to happen and it's seems odd, but soon it appears that an international spy plot might be going on! Aside from that this film is funny and full of good one liners and sexy scenes especially the one of Gal Gadot in the try on room with all of those sexy colored bras, and Tim and Natalie even tie up and duct tape the mouth's of Karen and Jeff's neighbors. Really a wild and crazy type of a film, probably not everyone's cup of tea still it's worth a watch due to it's laughs and sexy scenes a tease with two beautiful ladies in Gal Gadot and Isla Fisher, so if your looking for a carefree feel good time then give this movie a watch.
There's nothing I hate more than a comedy movie that seems to be funny
only in its trailers or previews but the movie itself, in its entirety,
fails to crack you up in every possible way. Look, when you come in to
watch a comedy, there's a certain expectation that you'd be laughing
out loud, and so when that doesn't happen, it becomes a total waste of
time. And that's KEEPING UP WITH THE JONESES for ya!
Zach Galifianakis and Isla Fisher play an ordinary suburban couple, the Gaffneys, whose lives are mundane. Their kids are out to summer camp and they have the whole house to themselves, but the can't even get themselves to go wild and have fun. Until the mysterious new neighbor moves in, The Joneses, played by Jon Hamm and Gal Gadot. They seem so sophisticated, so accomplished, so exciting and perfect and this whole thing attracts the Gaffneys,.. that is until they discover that the Joneses are covert operatives.
I was ready to call this film the Mr. & Mrs. Smith of Comedy, but I take it all back now, because as far as action comedy goes, KEEPING UP WITH THE JONESES is as dull and unexciting as the Gaffneys are. I wonder what exactly is it about Michael LeSieur's screenplay that made the studio and the producers want to gamble on it. Every punch line in this film goes way past your head because it either tries too hard or doesn't even try at all. And the film badly wants to be perceived as making some kind of effort to tackle themes of coupling and marriage or the complications of relationship, but what ends up happening instead are the characters arguing among themselves and we the audience tuning them out . Engaging is not even in the same area code as KEEPING UP WITH THE JONESES which should be an example of one of the year's worst films.

Philips Fidelio X1 headphonesPocket-lint
The biggest sellers in headphones now are earphones, and those Beats-style on-ear jobbies. It makes sense, because most listening happens when you're on the road, and you need something compact and that gives you a bit of isolation from the noise of the world.
But, if you enjoy listening at home, and want something that's comfortable for extended wearing, then you'll be keen on something like the X1s from Philips. These are "over-ear" type headphones designed to be as comfortable as humanly possible, while providing the best available sound.
This is what the X1s are designed for, so let's find out it they measure up.
Open backed
If you've never used open-back headphones before, then you might need to be pre-warned that these aren't for use in public. They put, very nearly, the same amount of sound out of the "back" as the "front". Meaning, anyone near you will hear not just that you're listening to music, but pretty much every word of the song too.
To illustrate this nicely, as we were writing this review, Mrs Pocket-lint arrived downstairs to yell: "I can hear those UPSTAIRS". This is quite normal, but because the sound is all high-end, simply shutting a door makes it impossible to hear the music, as you would expect. But, remember if you're going to use these out and about, people will start shooting you withering glances.
What the open backs add, is a fantastic depth to the sound, the likes of which you won't be able to get with closed headphones, or earphones. It's a wonderful way to listen to music, and it feels a lot less claustrophobic too. Plus, if something happens in your house - like a baby crying - you won't miss it, because there's enough ambient sound able to get through.
Really, what these headphones do well is replace speakers, with a more private speaker-like experience. It's very pleasant.
Memory-foam pads mean that the X1s feel amazing on your head. They're soft around your ears, and the pressure is gentle, which means they aren't exhausting to wear for long periods. We listened to a lot of stuff, from music to movies over several days, and never felt tired or sick of wearing them. If you told us that you had to wear them for the rest of our lives, we wouldn't be too upset.
The headband seems to strike a decent balance between comfort and grip. We noticed at times that when reclining on a sofa, they would slip a little. Honestly, this wasn't much of an issue, and we'd rather have more comfortable headphones than ones that stay on no matter what.
Built for "flat" inputs
One of the striking things we noticed about the X1s was just how brilliant they sound when fed a flat sound from our MP3 player. EQ off, and bass boost down to nothing and the sound came alive, with great range across all the audible frequencies.
If you fancy boosting the bass a little, you'll see that the X1s are capable of producing a lot of low-end sound. We liked this, and for short-term listening it's fun, with lots of punch, but over time you come to realise that the more balanced sound they produce when given untweaked audio is much nicer.
Sound quality
Of all the Fidelio headphones we've tested these are, as you'd hope, the best performing. The sound quality is nothing short of brilliant.
Bass is impressive. The size of the drivers mean they can produce a nice, deep and rich sound. What we like though, is that the bass produced here feels more deep than you'd ever get off in-ear 'phones.
Vocals are natural. Give them the luscious pop stylings of Carly Rae Jepsen, and it's like someone has come and Sellotaped the first lady of Canadian pop to your head and she's singing live. And in movies, dialogue is crisp and clear. If you're ever frustrated by film soundtracks, then this will be a boon for you.
There's good high-end quality too. There was never really a time when we felt sound was too bright, or over trebbly. This is a good thing too, because too much high end can make things very hard to listen too.
Replacing bits
When headphones creep over £100, we start to ask about how much of the various bits can be replaced. Happily, here, the headphone cable is fully detachable, so can easily be replaced if it breaks. If something goes wrong with your headphones, it's most likely to be the lead, the last thing anyone wants to do is replace their headphones just because the cable has split.
The second concern with such headphones is about the earpads. In some headphones, these just twist off. That means, if you damage them, you could just get some new ones. But not on the X1s. Sadly, on the X1s they aren't removable, so if they split, you'll either have to send them back, or replace the headphones in their entirety. Philips doesn't mention if it will offer a replacement service of some kind though.
Buy. Buy, buy, buy. BUY!
If there's a lack of clarity in that, then allow us to expand. We love the X1s. Everything we listened to sounded great. From pop to electronic, from action films to serious TV drama, it all hit the exact spot we wanted.
Of course, headphones are personal, so we suggest you try to get ears-on with these before splashing out, but if the price is right for you, then we think these are a truly great performers. They're the best of the Philips range so far, and we've been smitten with all of them up to now. They're certainly the most comfortable, although the slight looseness of the headband might be a problem for a small number of people.
But build-quality, design, sound quality are all fabulous. The only possible downside is that they are home headphones only, wearing them out and about is just not practical because of the size, and noise leakage.

Two suicide car bombers struck in the Pakistani city of Lahore today, killing 24 people and wounding dozens, most of them in an attack on a government security office, police and officials said.
More than 500 people have been killed in Pakistan this year in militant-related violence, including a campaign of suicide bombings.
One bomb went off near the entrance of the city-centre Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), badly damaging the multi-storey office and nearby buildings. The agency focuses on illegal immigration and people smuggling.
"It is now more obvious that the terrorists are targeting the law enforcement apparatus of the state," city police chief Malik Mohammad Iqbal told reporters.
The blasts came as opposition parties that won a 18 February election were forming a coalition government, raising hopes for political stability after months of turmoil over opposition to President Pervez Musharraf.
Interior Ministry spokesman Javed Iqbal Cheema said the bomber at the FIA building killed 21 people, 12 of them agency staff.
At about the same time, a second suicide bomber in a car struck in a mainly residential neighbourhood of the eastern city, about six miles away, killing three people including two children, he said. In all, 170 people were wounded, he said.
"We're going through a very crucial phase of transition," Cheema told a news conference, referring to the new government.
"Perhaps one answer could be that the terrorists are trying to put maximum pressure on the government that is in the making," he said.
Last week, a twin-suicide bombing killed five people in an attack on a navy college in Lahore.
Police said the second car bomb blew up after it was stopped at the gate of an advertising agency office, near the Lahore home of Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of assassinated former prime minister Benazir Bhutto.
Zardari, who led Bhutto's party to election victory last month, said this week the party would not flinch from a long fight against militancy. He was in Islamabad today.
Provincial governments had been asked to review security plans and accelerate intelligence gathering to try to stop bombers before they strike, Cheema said.

In To Kill a Mockingbird, the kids see Boo as a strange and frightening figure in chapter 5. How do Maudie and Atticus view him?
1 Answer | Add Yours
In chapter 5, you will also note that Maudie says she still believes Boo to be alive and well when she says,
"His name's Arthur and he's alive... I know he's alive, Jean Louise, because I haven't seen him carried out yet."
This highlights the fact that Maudie might not believe all the rumors about Boo Radley because she chooses to respect his given name of Arthur. This identifies him as a person with feelings, not a "malevolent phantom" or peeping tom.
Later Miss Maudie gives Jean Louise some of Arthur's past:
I remember Arthur Radley when he was a boy. He always spoke nicely to me, no matter what folks said he did. Spoke as nicely as he knew how."
This shows Maudie also agrees that Arthur Radley had strong values.
Later in the chapter, Atticus gives the kids a piece of his mind that included giving Arthur the respect he deserved for keeping to himself in these words:
What Mr. Radley did was his own business. If he wanted to come out, he would. If he wanted to stay inside his own house he had the right to stay inside free from the attentions of inquisitive children, which was a mild term for the likes of us. How would we like it if Atticus barged in on us without knocking, when we were in our rooms at night? We were, in effect, doing the same thing to Mr. Radley. What Mr. Radley did might seem peculiar to us, but it did not seem peculiar to him. Furthermore, had it never occurred to us that the civil way to communicate with another being was by the front door instead of a side window? Lastly, we were to stay away from that house until we were invited there, we were not to play an asinine game he had seen us playing or make fun of anybody on this street or in this town-

I thought by now, someone else or another group of Pinoy bloggers have overtaken the project but after doing some search on Google, it turns out that it wasn't the case.
The Philippine Blog Carnival project is still where I last left it; an edition dedicated to the City of Manila, which was hosted by no one else than Pinay blogger Manilenya.
That last edition was the 2nd re-opening of the Philippine Blog Carnival. Filipina Soul was instrumental in helping me with that last effort. We also got a mention over at WordPress Philippines. I thank each and everyone who supported and joined that last edition.
And I also offer my sincerest apologies for not pushing through with the project and leaving it to be completely forgotten.
However, this time, I am taking a bold step in not just reviving the project, but making sure that it will live on and continue to knit a closer Pinoy blogging community.
So with this, let me present the rough road map of the third iteration of the Philippine Blog Carnival:
- A new comeback edition this October. Nothing too big or grand, but not another mediocre and half-hearted effort.
- Better web presence. Thanks to social networking sites, it's much easier to promote a blog or project nowadays as compared to two years ago.
- A dedicated home in the web. Yes, I am determined in finding a home for the Philippine Blog Carnival: it's own unique domain and a nifty site powered by WordPress of course.
This roadmap will be polished and updated as the project moves along. Right now, picking up a new topic/theme for the comeback edition is on the top of the list. Also, I am working on a text, which would become a declaration of sorts of what I really intend and dream for the Philippine Blog Carnival. I don't want this to be viewed as my Philippine Blog Carnival of which I have complete control and be used for my own personal gain. I want this to be a community project, something that belongs to the Pinoy blogging community.
More would be revealed and explained in the coming days as I begin to work on the project. If you're interested in helping out with the Philippine Blog Carnival, by all means please do. You can pitch in your ideas through the comments thread below or if you're the shy type you can shoot an email to philblogcarnival [at] gmail [dot] com.
That's all for now, thank you for your time and here's to a new beginning!

Beauty queen-turned-actor Lara Dutta who gave birth to her first child, Saira, in January this year is making a point to spend as much time as she can with her little one but isn't giving up on her career, yet. When asked if she is considering putting acting on the backseat, the 34-year-old actor says, "No. Certainly not. We as actors have a lot going off set in our lives than while we are onset; we just put a mask on and get on with the show."
Last seen in Don 2, Lara finished shooting for Bejoy Nambiar's David and has a couple of other home production ventures lined up. "I'm looking at going back on set in December," she says, adding, "I'm actually taking it very easy because I want Saira to be a little settled. A mother has more separation anxiety than the kid. So I want to make sure she is very well secured and in the knowing that I can leave her for an extended period of time."
The new mother has also found a new interest— watching American medical drama Grey's Anatomy. "I've always been interested in medical dramas," she says.
So how's motherhood treating the diva? "Motherhood is challenging and thoroughly rewarding. My daughter's giving me new lessons every day," she says. And how much time does daddy Mahesh Bhupathi get to spend with the family? "Daddy is having a blast. He is at the US Open right now…But he spends as much time as he can. He is a great dad," she says.
Too early to ask, but we still question her what would she want her daughter to be when she grows up— a movie star or a tennis ace and Lara says, "At this age, she looks like she'll become a drummer because she is drumming on everything she can get hold of. So I've no idea what she's going to be."

NextGen Delegation to Hombu Dojo, Tokyo 24-29 April, 2017
It was during the 50th anniversary school that the Foundation developed an idea which would pro-actively help to continue the ongoing close relationship that Aiki Kai Australia has always enjoyed with Aikido World Headquarters in Japan. Loosely termed the "Next Generation" initiative, the proposal was enthusiastically taken up by the Doshu during the 50th Anniversary Summer School. The idea - which became a reality - was that if we could invite the Doshu's son, now Dojo Cho of Hombu Dojo, to come to Australia, he would meet the Australian Aikido community and particularly our younger population - which hopefully includes future generations of teachers and leaders. Following that event
with funding provided mainly by the Foundation, Aiki Kai Australia and relevant states to send a small group of 'younger' students to Tokyo to train for a week there, including attending Dojo Cho's class. As Tony Smibert Sensei describes it, "Training together at Hombu and making friends during the process was really important to many in our first generation. We want to encourage the same opportunities for others now, and hope this will contribute to the future."
Applicants were invited from all over Australia - with an initial group to be led by Jikou Sugano, representing the Foundation, Tristan Derham as the Aiki Kai Australia Vice President, and Felicity Peters, as the Group Organiser. Initial funding from the Foundation was augmented by a contribution from Aiki Kai Australia, the states and territories and then, very generously, by a further personal contribution from Phillip Lee Shihan of Aikido Shinju-Kai (Singapore).
It's with great excitement that we look forward to seeing how that group make the most of this wonderful opportunity, at the same time we remain fully aware of the fact that they are representatives of a much larger, talented group.
The Trustees are pleased to announce the selection of the following delegates for this stage of the NextGen initiative:
Jikou Sugano, (Foundation representative)
Tristan Derham (AKA representative)
Felicity Peters (Group leader)
Bruce Roberts (WA)
Bernard Dowd (WA)
Monica Tschochner (WA)
Mark Mc Laughlin (NT)
Annalise Bennett (Tas)
Alex Rojas (Vic)
Alex Raytsin (Vic)
Josh Taaffe (Vic)
The Trustees of the Foundation thank all of those who have helped with or applied for its 2017 NextGen Tokyo Delegation, which is intended to assist and encourage the building of friendships and personal connections between Aikido students in Australia and Hombu Dojo. They hope this will help to underpin the formal relationship between Aiki Kai Australia and Hombu in the years to come and pave the way for future groups and individuals.
Selection for participants in the 2017 Tokyo Training Visit was made entirely at the discretion of the Trustees and they sincerely thank all those who applied. The standard of applicant was very high and although the Foundation did not have funds to support as many people as they would have liked this time around, the Foundation hopes to be in a position to continue this sort of initiative into the future.
Good luck to all the delegates as they prepare to leave!

At ease: banking on Romans 8:28
"I'm in control of nothing; follow you at any cost,
Some call it Sovereign will, all I know is you the Boss
And man, I'm so at ease, I'm so content
I'll play the background, like it's an instrument."
The process of adoption has been one of the biggest trials I've experienced. It has been so up and down and things seem to spin out of control with nearly one phone call. The biggest truth I've learned (brace yourself you may be a new concept) I'm not in control. Okay, so maybe it isn't the first time you've heard this, however, in America we say God is in control and Sovereign in our lives and events but, we live differently. Why else do we get stressed or upset or have worries? Because we don't trust at that moment that the Lord is not surprised and that He is working that situation for our good.
This week has been another seemingly down time in the process of adoption however; I'm trusting in the Lord and banking this situation on Romans 8:28. In view of this passage I can trust that God is working each event for my good.
What 'good' is God working out for His children? God is working everything for my good to conform me to Christ (vs.29) to have closer fellowship with God and to bear good fruit for the kingdom and for my ultimate glorification (vs.30).
The quoted paragraph is from LeCrae's new album Rehab (which is the best cd I've seriously heard) what a beautiful picture of being at ease, having peace, being content because we trust in the Lord.
Ladies, if you are a redeemed believer then bank each and every situation on Romans 8:28. You can have peace and be at ease knowing what wonderful ways the Lord is working these situation for our good!
I'm posting here at Good Morning Girls.

Thank you so much for linking with me this past Wednesday at Good Morning Girls! I loved reading your post, I'm so sorry for your disappointment but I also love knowing how to pray for you! Sometimes learning and understanding that God is sovereign is a VERY hard lesson. God is working and one day you will have a beautiful testimony to share with others because of what you are currently walking with God! He loves you, He has a plan and you CAN trust Him!!!ReplyDelete
