As the analytics state, the usage of mobile devices over the desktop computers is increasing by leaps and bounds,YOY. These mobile device are now replacing the computers,not in all means, but yes all the primary functionalities.Tech heads are releasing at least one or two flagships a year on an average. All these flagships are powered by some or the other processor chipsets (SOCs). These processor chipsets are being manufactured by two companies named Qualcomm and Mediatek.
In choosing a smartphone, along with the camera, the screen resolution and other aspects, the selection of the processor is also one of the major factor which decides the performance of the phone. And this has been a question since long…Qualcomm or Mediatek? Which one is perfect for you? snapdragon vs mediatek
For an easy understanding first make an analogy of Qualcomm vs Mediatek with Intel vs AMD. The later ones are the PC processor brands, which cant be compared technically, but the scenario remains the same. Going into the roots., Qualcomm is a old and experienced company in this field of mobile and wireless communications with an experience of market trends of over 40 years. Where as mediatek is half its age.
The chipsets which are manufactured by Qualcomm are named SNAPDRAGON. Thus you might be familiar with the names Snapdragon 650, snapdragon 820, etc. On the other hand, Mediatek has its own Helio series constituting Helio X10, X20 and many more.
Both the companies use the ARM(Advanced RISC Machines) Cortex architecture for the chipsets, thus there is no difference in the architecture used by both the brands. But where the difference comes in is that after buying the IP core from ARM, Qualcomm doesnt directly fabricates it, but makes in subtle changes which in turn leads to better battery life, less power consumption,better graphics, networks and so on. Mediatek on the other side, after having the architecture from ARM, directly fabricates the chio in its foundry and this is the result of its cost reduction over Qualcomm.
The benchmarking score clearly state that the high end versions of mediatek can be compared with the mid level processors from qualcomm. The Helio X20 is at par with Snapdragon 650 where as the Helio X10 with Snapdragon 420. Snapdragon has its 820 chipset which is the best processor right now and is used by all the flagships such as google pixel, samsung and one plus.There is no direct competetion in market for snapdragon 820 right now, but mediatek has announced the release of its Helio X30 chip in near future. But as snapdragon is always one step ahead, it is also planning to release its 821 chip next year.
Sometimes the bench-marking scores of mediatek are quite high, but when high end tasks are given to the phone in practical situations by running the apps, a clear difference can be seen between mediatek and Qualcomm.
Coming over to the market share, Mediatek covers the asian market and beats Qualcomm, and the main reason behind this is that the asian market is price centeric and people generally tend to buy a smartphone ranging from 12000-18000 INR on an average, and in this range, the mediatek Helio X10 and X20 range fits well, where as Qualcomm can only offer snapdragon 650 and 652 processors in this range. Thus the Smartphones with 820 chip range from over 20k to 50k INR, Qualcomm looses its market share.
VERDICT: Thus if you are willing to buy a high end smartphone with great processing capabilities, good battery, better image processing and good networks, go for a Snapdragon powered phone, dont even think of a phone which provides mediatek chipset at a high range of 20k INR onwrds. But if you want a budget smartphone, of range 12-18k INR, go for a mediatek powered smartphone.

A guide to creating a daily uniform
French writer Stendhal once stated that only great minds can afford a simple style. Why not showcase your confidence and intellect by creating a daily uniform that simplifies your getting ready routine?
Many smart and successful people simplify their wardrobes to free their mind so they can make better decisions. It's not a concept for everyone but for anyone who appreciates essential living it could be a life changer.
Instead of worrying about what to wear everyday you can create an entire capsule wardrobe, or simply rely on one or two classic looks and devote the time saved to more pressing matters.
If you're up for the challenge, considering these six simple tips will help you construct your very own signature daily uniform.
In order to own your look you'll have to be secure with yourself and your sense of style, so carefully consider the types of items that boost your confidence.
For some it may be a power suit while for others it may be a pair of sneakers. Start with your most favorite items and build your daily uniform from there.
I have a capsule wardrobe and from that wardrobe I've constructed a few go-to daily uniforms that I rely on. Sometimes I wear these outfits three or four days in a row.
I was able to craft my set of daily uniforms by identifying a handful of favorite items that I love wearing and feel myself in. Right now one daily uniform on heavy rotation consists of black skinny jeans, a button down white oxford shirt, and grey oversized wool blazer from Everlane.
Many people make fashion choices based on fads but don't give proper thought to fit and fabrication. However, comfort will be key if you are going to wear the same thing everyday.
You won't feel confident if you don't feel comfortable so consider the texture and structure of the items that make you feel most at ease.
You might prefer sturdy materials such as cotton that can stand up to a lot of wear and tear. Or perhaps you can tolerate silk being a bit higher maintenance because you like the feel of it against your skin. While 100% wool is cozy, you may cross it out because it scratches your skin or causes you to feel overheated.
Also consider how you feel after wearing an item for a full day. I personally don't own heels because I can't make it a few hours without sore feet, back strain and poor posture.
After enduring this misery for years, one day I had an epiphany: why am I forcing myself to wear something that I'm miserable in? I now solely opt for flats, wedges, sneakers, and other more comfortable shoe types.
Please take the time to identify the types of items you feel your best and worst in. You'll want to build your daily uniform around the best and strongly consider eliminating the items that are uncomfortable.
Keeping a minimalist mindset will be important in crafting your daily uniform but it doesn't mean you can't let your natural style shine through.
It doesn't matter if you prefer a casual or professional look, you can create a daily uniform work by building a base from simple basics (neutral colors, structured shirts, streamlined blazers) and then using shoes and accessories to customize to your taste.
I want to stress this point because a lot of people are turned off by the concept of creating a capsule wardrobe or daily uniform because they automatically assume it requires you to have a minimalist aesthetic.
This is absolutely false. You can be bohemian and still only own 50 beloved items in your closet that look amazing on you.
If you work in a corporate law firm you'll have to conform to a different set of outfit guidelines than if you work in an advertising agency. It's important to choose items that fit in well with your current lifestyle — be it casual or formal.
Most of us have a work and a weekend life so it may also be necessary to create two different daily uniforms. Whatever the case, don't breeze over this step when creating your daily uniform because you want your look to be practical and fit the reality of your day-to-day.
Having a daily uniform doesn't necessarily mean wearing the exact same items everyday (though to each his own).
You'll have to consider your budget and think about which items you'll need quite a few of because it would be too much to keep them clean (e.g. white tees), and which items you only need a few of because you can easily wear them frequently (e.g. black jeans).
The great thing about the daily uniform concept is that it is inherently budget-friendly. Wearing the same thing allows you to significantly cut down on shopping and will save you hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars each season.
My capsule wardrobe e-course includes a worksheet for determining your budget so you don't overspend when re-building your closet.
Take some time to construct a list of go-to brands that have the basics you need. Brands or retailers such as Everlane, Theory, and Vince have stylish minimalist apparel that can help you build a classic yet unique look.
And, again, even if you don't have a minimalist aesthetic you should still have a list of favorite brands handy so when it's time to refresh your daily uniform you know exactly where to go.
I include a brand list for standard, plus and petite sizes in the capsule wardrobe course.
Creating a daily uniform can be a fun project and a great way to simplify life. For some, it may be easy to set a look and stick with it indefinitely. For others — who prefer to experiment or change up their style — you can alternate your daily uniform weekly, monthly or seasonally.
There are no rules or restrictions other than understanding what works for you. Explore more capsule wardrobe editorials to get inspiration.

I think the Bohri community needs to be lauded for mashing together a delicious snack like Gujarati patra (also called alu vadi and pathrode) with a spicy kheema curry that boasts a distinct Mughlai touch. It's genius when you think about it- colocasia leaves are smeared with a sour paste, then gingerly rolled and steamed. They are then fried on each side, and placed in a pot of spicy, oily mutton mince to really soak up the flavours. Finally, a dhungaar or charcoal smoke is introduced to the pot to finish, which makes the whole dish go from an "oh, that's good" to a "bloody hell, that's brilliant". The smoking is, of course, an optional step and the dish still tastes great without it.
I won't lie to you, it's a bit time consuming to make this, and because they disappear so quickly, you don't have the heart to tell someone to savour it slow, cause you won't be making it for another week at least. If you're unsure about how this will taste, take a trip down to Bhendi Bazaar in Byculla and get a portion of the Patrel Biryani without rice at Firoz Farsan, perhaps the only shop in Mumbai, where you'll find patveliya.
For The Patveliya
Colocasia leaves 8-10
Chickpea Flour 1 cup
Tamarind 1 small golf sized ball, soaked to yield at least 3 tbsp worth of pulp
Cumin powder 1 tsp
Red chilli powder 1 tsp
Garlic 4 small cloves
Turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
Black Pepper 1 tsp
Water 1/4 cup + 3 tbsp
Fenugreek seeds 1 tsp
Whisk together the chickpea flour, the dry spices, garlic, tamarind and the water. It should resemble a wet, but thick paste.
To prepare the leaves, wash carefully and keep them aside. Turn the leaf so that the stem faces up, and use a knife to slice the tough stem horizontally. Slice as much of the stem as you can, and halve the leaf into two vertically.
Use your hands to generously coat each half of this leaf. When I say generous, I mean you can go overboard with it too. Fold the sides of the leaf inward as much as you can, and starting from the tip of the leaf, start rolling towards the base. When you reach the end, apply a little bit more paste and fasten the roll. Set it aside. Repeat this for all the patveliya parcels.
Create a steamer using a deep heavy-bottomed pan filled with a little boiling water, fitted with a stainless steel strainer and a lid. Now add the patveliya leaf parcels to the strainer and let it steam for twenty minutes at least. When it's done, remove and refrigerate this for ten to fifteen minutes.
Stir-fry the patveliya parcels in a frying pan with a bit of oil till they have browned and firmed up on all sides. Drain them on tissues and set them aside. These are ready to eat at this stage too, and it's totally okay if only half the parcels really make it to the gravy.
For The Kheema Gravy
Asafoetida a pinch
Mutton kheema 250g
Onions 2, finely chopped
Ginger 1 tsp, freshly grated
Garlic 5 cloves, freshly grated
Green chilli 1 1/2, finely chopped
Red chilli powder 3 tsp
Coriander powder 2 tsp
Turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
Tomato 2 small-sized, chopped
Salt 1 tsp
Spice blend (Grind all of the spices below and set aside.)
Shahi jeera 1 tsp
Mace 1
Cinnamon 1/2 stick
Star anise 1/2
Badi elaichi 1
Green cardamom 2
Bayleaf 1
This will make a little over a teaspoon, but you'll need to use only half of it. Add the rest to your next Shahi gravy
Oil for frying the spices a few tablespoons
The Paste from the Patveliya 2 tbsp, mixed together with some water
Salt to taste
Coriander to garnish
In a heavy bottomed pan, heat around five tablespoons of oil and add a pinch of asafoetida to it. Immediately add in the chopped onions and sauté this on medium till it is a golden brown. The browner the better, because this leads to a better final product.
To this, add the grated ginger, garlic and the green chillies. Fry this for a few minutes before adding in the chopped tomatoes. Add the turmeric, red chilli and coriander powders and cook this till the tomato has started to break down. Add to this the kheema and fry well till the mutton is nearly done and the oil separates.
Heat a few more tablespoons of oil in a tadka pan and add 1/2 tsp of the spice mix powder and immediately shuck into the mutton.
The diluted paste from the filling must go in next. Give it a good stir. Cook for five more minutes and take it off the heat. Taste for salt and garnish with the chopped coriander.
Drop the parcels of patveliya into the mutton gravy and get ready to put the dhungaar.
For the dhungaar, take a piece of charcoal and heat it over an open flame till very hot and activated. Place the piece of charcoal in a foil and pour over a tablespoon of ghee. Let this sit together in the covered pan for ten to fifteen minutes, then remove the parcel and serve.

Parents of Child Injured At Wave Waterpark's Emerald Plunge Announce Lawsuit
Working with McCoy Law Firm– BG&A brought national and local attention for a multi-million dollar law suit
A News Conference Announcing the Lawsuit Will Take Place Today, November 14 at 11:00 A.M. PST In Front of the Park
CNN U.S. News Coverage
ABC News Coverage
DUBLIN, CA November 14, 2017 — Civil rights attorney Waukeen McCoy today announced he has filed a lawsuit (Superior Court of California County of Alameda case # RG17882249) on behalf of the parents of a 10-year-old boy injured May 27 at the publicly owned The Wave Waterpark in Dublin, California.
Among the defendants are the city, the state of California, the manufacturer WhiteWater West Industries which also advised on the construction; the contractor C. Overaa & Company, and subcontractors which together built the 48-ft.-tall water slide, known as the Emerald Plunge.
The lawsuit alleges the slide was "defective in manufacture and/or design." The water pressure on the slide was too powerful; and the "run-out" lane at the bottom of the slide provided no padding or protection from a child being ejected, according to the suit. The ride left the child with injuries to his head, back, arms and legs.
The suit also alleges that a pre-opening inspection of the ride identified 17 unsafe conditions, citing dangerous sharp edges and cracks in the infrastructure.
"If the slide was tested properly this horrendous incident wouldn't have happened. If the slide has since been tested and found safe, why hasn't it reopened? We believe the slide was not properly tested and should never have opened," said McCoy of McCoy Law Firm, PC.
The spot where the boy was thrown from the slide was an "agitated, churning swirl of water" likely created by the junction of the incline and the straightaway, the suit adds. When the child hit that spot he hydroplaned and shot over the edge.
According to the suit, The Emerald Plunge and another "thrill" slide in the park were closed following the incident and never reopened during the park's inaugural season, which ended in September.
The parents, local professors at a major university, ask to please help keep the boy's identity anonymous.
In addition to damages and penalties, the parents want all issues properly corrected so that the municipal facility will be safe for all attendees.

Residents making use of Laurel Arts programs will be dancing on new floors and creating art in a new studio starting next summer.
Laurel Arts officials have announced the site for an education and dance center that will allow the organization to expand its dance and art programs.
After narrowing their choices to two locations, board members chose a suite at the Georgian Place Shopping & Office Village in Somerset. The space is the former location of New World Fitness.
"A big change is that we're not going to lease the space, but purchase it," said Executive Director Michael Knecht. "We looked at the costs for leasing over a 10- to 15-year period against a monthly mortgage and they were about the same. We wanted to try to build up some equity. Financially, this made more sense."
Knecht said board members are enthusiastic about the purchase.
"The purchase option has people very excited because we've had a leasing option for the past 20 years and we don't have any equity built up after that time," he said. "I think this is really good and gives a sense of permanency with Laurel Arts."

We are starting this Kickstarter campaign to be the first step in getting everything manufactured.
This new line will consist of:
We have a very soft+cozy organic cotton that we will be using for all of our products. The patterns are built for comfort and style and will not irritate the kids with buttons or scratchy seems. We want our clothing line to inspire kids to twirl, jump, run and sleep after a fun day of play.
This project of launching Remi+Olive™ is especially meaningful to us because so far we have done everything by hand. Everything has been made by Lindsay and although it has been so rewarding, it is extremely hard work. We are taking a huge leap to start manufacturing everything. This will help our business tremendously, we will be able to get more products to customer, everything will be ready to ship, lower prices, and continually make better products for our customer. This is a project that Josh and I are doing together. We love working together and involving the whole family.
Please, hit the green button and help back our Remi+Olive™ clothing line. We have some Great rewards! We have lots of options whether you want to back us by getting in early on some of our upcoming products, or if you just want your credit on our site as a supporter with a back link to your social media or site. For the Los Angeles area we are even offering a professional portrait session for you and your family.
If we don't reach our goal we won't receive funding. In order to make this a reality we have to hit our goal!
We are very grateful for the opportunity to share this with you. THANK YOU to everyone that has supported our small business.
The repeat customers and Instagram photos we've received over the years have kept us going. We are forever thankful. We very much look forward to taking this next step with you all.
Why is GOTS important?
GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standards and includes both ecological and social criteria through the entire supply chain. In simple terms this means from the moment the cotton seed is planted, right through to when you receive your shirt, environmental protection and working conditions meet a very high standard. It means workers in the factories who mill the fabric and those who make the garments have rights that are protected. They have a right to work reasonable hours, to be paid a living wage (not a minimum wage) and the right to bargaining. And, they work in factories where harmful chemicals and dyes are prohibited, which protects both them, and the environment.
Risks and challenges
We have begun manufacturing on our first Remi+Olive™ clothing line and project to be finished by the end of August.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

The Holly and the ivy!
Now that it's officially November, I thought it would be acceptable to post my top picks for Christmas! I'm a real Christmas Keen Bean and love decorating my home, wrapping presents and having fun with family and friends over the holidays.
First up is some super cute partyware by Meri Meri (above and below). I love their stuff and the mix of spots and stripes is adorable. I like these designs because they are fun without being too naff. I LOVE the sparkly rosette tags too – such a lovely finishing touch to presents under the tree.
I like to buy a few new Christmas decorations every year and always end up with a basket full from Paperchase! Here are some fantastic retro-inspired glass baubles – my favourite type. The flamingo is really cool and would make a brilliant centrepiece on a table or by the fireside if you fancy something a little different. The wooden tree decorations remind me of spinning tops and would act as a nice contrast in texture to glass or plastic baubles.
Another range that I love is by Alessi – a little bit quirky and very colourful – ticking all the boxes! The baubles are beautifully made and really pack a punch on a Christmas tree. There are also lots of different figurines to mix and match; they're perfect for dotting around fireplaces, window sills and tables.
A lot of people don't send Christmas cards, which I think is a real shame. I love writing and sending greetings cards (year round!) and am always excited to see all the new designs every year. I spend ages trying to find the perfect card and think I've made my choice for this year… although there's still time for me to change my mind…
Last year, I bought the Candy Cane range (first picture) from Darling Clementine and I think this year's winner is going to be their Christmas Collection range (second picture) which includes beautiful, vintage-inspired illustrations. They are also sprayed with gold to add to the festive feel – yippeee!
I'm a big fan fan of Ingela P Arrhenius and everything she does. Her work is inspired by vintage illustration and is fun and colourful. I absolutely love these nativity dolls which she has designed with OMM Design. The set includes all the big names – Mary, Joseph, the three kings and baby Jesus!
Stay tuned for more Christmas themed posts!

Free Beauty Tips
Healing Burns with a simple remedy
Simple way to help heal a burn, straight away you need water or another cool liquid directly on the burnt skin.
This helps the skin react to the burn and start hydrating.
Once the burn is older and has swelled, the skin is trying to recover. One of the most effective ways to help the skin heal is to sooth it by using a gel or cream that has an alo vera ingredient. If you don't have one of these products why not try alo vera plant as a substitute. This can also provide just as good results as a cream. Its all about keeping the skin hydrated while it rebuild from the burn
Smoother Looking Skin
There are 4 basic ways to a smoother looking skin
1. Keep out of direct sunlight for long periods
If in the sun, use a good quality moisturiser with at least a SPF15+, or good sunscreen with a high SPF.
2. Quality Skin Care Range
With every day use, morning and night, good quality creams will protect your skin from the harmful environmental elements.
3. Exfoliation Methods
Should be performed at least twice a week to remove dead skin cells.
4. Salon Beauty Treatments
Intense Pulse Light treatments (IPL) and Microdermabrasion are two extremely good treatments to improve the texture of your skin. They stimulate the skin to produce more collagen which leaves the skin more radiant and youthful. There is no down time in both of these treatments. You could even have them performed in your lunch break.
Each method by itself will help improve your skin, but a combination of these will ensure your skin looks better each day.
Radiant Skin
10 Ways to a Radiant Skin
1. Develop a good skin care routine for your particular skin type
2. Exfoliate twice a week to remove your skin of dead cells
3. Avoid the sun and tanning beds. The damage done by ultraviolet rays is long lasting
4. Exercising regular gets the blood moving and creates a healthy body.
5. Drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated
6. Get at least 7 to 8 hours sleep every night. Lack of sleep will show up under your eyes as dark circles
7. Have a facial at least once a month
8. Try to reduce stress
9. Eat a well balanced diet including fresh vegetables and fruit
10. Get lots of fresh air but try to avoid harsh weather like wind snow and sun
For Peeling Eye Lids
You should always use a good eye cream as eyelids are the thinnest and softest areas of skin in the body. Using a face moisturiser can cause your eye lids to peel as it is too harsh for the delicate skin.
Puffy Eyes
If you need to eliminate puffy eyes in a hurry, chill two teaspoons in the fridge, then place the hollow sides over closed eyes for a few minutes.
Take two chamomile tea bags that have cooled after being steeped in boiling water, and place them over the eyes for a few minutes. If you don't have chamomile tea, you can use green tea bags.

Traralgon fitness model Chrissy Warren has never been overseas but her first trip abroad to Thailand this week may be difficult to top.
The 32-year-old will take flight to Phuket today as a result of her most recent win – which she has hardly had time to digest.
"The All Female Classic was the very first competition I ever watched last year," Chrissy said.
"As soon as I walked away from it I just knew I was going to do it and that's what got me going."
Twelve months on at the very same meet, Chrissy took out the overall fitness model title at the All Female Classic last weekend.
Few expected her journey on the fitness circuit would come full circle after just 10 months of competition – least of which the woman herself.
"I honestly didn't think anything like this would happen in 10 months, and I'm still in my first year of competing," she said.
"The support from the community has been overwhelming ... just unbelievable."
The whirlwind will continue for Chrissy this week when she competes on the world stage against the best of the best at the ICN Southern Universe Championships.
"I still can't quite believe it. You don't go into the competition thinking 'yeah, I'm going to win', so I've had 10 days to plan everything," she said.
"I'm just so grateful for the opportunity, it's such a massive thing for me."
A pro card is up for grabs at the Southern Universe Championships, and a win for Chrissy could see her gain status as a fully fledged professional.
"I'm going in blind but at the moment I'm still on such a high," she said.
Partner Lisa Theodore couldn't help but marvel at Chrissy's progression over the past 12 months and will be right by her side in Phuket.
"I see what goes on behind the scenes and it's just absolutely amazing," Lisa said.
"She's really blitzing it at the moment but there are no expectations going into this other than [gaining] experience."
Chrissy admitted life on the fitness circuit was "not always highs".
She trains up to six times a week, teaches four fitness classes and sticks to a super strict diet.
To track Chrissy's progress in Thailand, follow her on Instragram @chrissywarren_fit.

What You Should Keep In Mind When Buying Lipstick
Women love lipstick and can't get enough of it. The beautiful colors, the magnetic appeal, and the sheer glow of lipstick could make a girl look prettier than ever. It is a must have for any woman who wants to enhance her natural beauty. The use of lipstick has been one of the most popular trends among women, and there are no signs that this fad will change anytime soon. However, despite the fact that the trend has been here for years, most women don't know what to look for when buying lipstick and most of them stick to one shade of lipstick. If you have been finding it difficult to pick the type of lipstick that matches your needs, read on and learn what you should consider before you buy lipstick to ensure you get it right.
Skin Tone
This is the first thing you should never ignore when purchasing lipstick. You should always consider your skin tone to help you navigate in many fields of beauty and fashion. As such, it's important to ensure you do the same when choosing your lipstick. There are two types of undertones, warm and cool. To understand the difference, those with warm undertones tend to have a golden or olive hue, while those with cool undertones have a fairer shade. If you can't define your undertone, you are likely a mixture of both. If you need assistance, ask for help from friends or lipstick experts and let them help you determine your skin color.
Why Do You Need Lipstick?
Buying lipstick may seem to be a simple task, but you need to have a reason for picking a particular type of lipstick before purchasing it. Lipstick has other benefits other than enhancing a girl's beauty. You can visit http://www.lovelylips.net/
Impulse buying among women is unbeatable and leads to frustrations. Don't be misled to buy an expensive type of lipstick because you will regret later. To avoid impulse buying, ensure you make a list of the varieties you need and the price of each one of them. Conduct a simple research on the web and find out which type compliments your financial plans.
Expiry Date
Yes! You heard it right. Just like other forms of makeup, lipstick also comes with an expiry date. It expires after three years, and it is important to ensure you check the expiry date to avoid buying expired lipstick.

Kent Coleman, director of the Mining and
Solid Waste Management Division at DHEC,
spoke to the Ridge Protection Coalition at their
last meeting January 15. RPC members have
been concerned over the fact that the proposed
Vulcan quarry could cause a loss of well water
as well as their blasting over an earthquake
fault line that runs through the site.
Coleman stated that currently DHEC does
not have any applications in house for this
mine and no applications have been received to
date. Asked if there had been any talks between
Vulcan representatives and DHEC personnel,
Coleman replied DHEC had heard from Vulcan
stating they were considering putting a quarry
in this area but gave no details. He added
DHEC had heard a lot from individuals who
had called and told them about the plans and
that they had also seen reports in the newspapers.

above are screengrabs from the recent teaser shown during SDCC [blogged] ... apparently in the movie, the Iron Monger-armor designed by Obadian Stane (Jeff Bridges) was (ripped-off) primarily based on Stark's Mark 1, but tis a much bulkier and bigger version (*i lurve heavy-mechas*) and from these spy-shots of a location shoot [via] - it looks like Iron Man has his iron-mitts full! *cool*
"The Iron Monger is an identity used by several fictional characters in the Marvel Comics universe, most of whom have been supervillains. The first and most notable person to use that identity was billionaire industrialist Obadiah Stane, who used the Iron Monger armor in the climax of a long-running conflict with his nemesis, Iron Man. Stane first appeared in Iron Man #163, and first appeared as the Iron Monger in Iron Man #200." [wiki]

Shooting a Tomb Raider Fan Film Abroad
|Rebecca Crossdale (Lara Croft) on location in Almeria, Spain. Photo by Dylan Webb.
Fan films are one of my favourite creative mediums in the Tomb Raider community!
It's always nice to see someone new take on the character of Lara Croft and make her their own, as well as what the filmmakers achieve visually.
Recently, a group of students from the University of Creative Arts in Farnham, Surrey, set out to make a short film that would be a hybrid of the classic and reboot Tomb Raider games and started a campaign on Go Fund Me.
The action adventure was released a few months ago (now with over 5,900 views) and I was struck by the impressive cinematography, lighting and especially the beautiful locations and landscapes provided by the city of Almeria in Spain.
The two directors James Ashley and Dylan Webb chatted with me about making this labour of love.
TDD: When did this project start and what made you choose Tomb Raider?
DW: This project started in early October 2016 when my university informed us we had to create a short 5 minute film as part of our course.
I do film production at UCA Farnham and have made several films throughout my time at university.
These films have all either been dramas or comedies, so for this final project I wanted to do something different.
At the time I was heavily invested in fan films, particularly with Star Wars. James and I tried to get a Star Wars film going outside of our studies but found the costs being way too much, so it was left. I was also getting into the new Tomb Raider video games on the PS4, especially Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition. James and I sat down and decided we wanted to make a film that would stand out from our previous work and other students in our class, I love films with a strong female lead and James loves actions films, so Lara Croft was the perfect middle ground, and it turns out we both love her!
JA: The idea to do a Tomb Raider fan film was talked about between me and Dylan as far back as August. We decided we wanted to team up and make a fun film for our final project. There are too many depressing films made with those sorts of projects!
Tomb Raider was a natural choice for us as Lara Croft's world mixes together several different genres and elements that cater to Dylan and I's differences in taste.

TDD: How much money did you manage to raise with your crowd funding campaign and how did it help with the production?
D&J: We used GoFundMe to raise money for our fan film, mainly due to the project shifting to be filmed abroad and also we are students, money is tight!
We didn't want to remove any elements from our film due to production costs, so we kept it contained in terms of script without hindering the story.
That was an extremely hard task because we had such cool ideas floating around, but they often lead to bringing up the budget. We managed to raise just shy of £350, with our overall budget being £1200. This money helped us out with accommodation and food, essential things for all film productions.
Without the generosity from family, friends and even some fans we wouldn't have been able to make this film the way we wanted, so we as a team are very grateful!
TDD: How did you go about casting?
DW: For casting, we used Casting Call Pro. I was in charge of casting and I posted the ad up and received an overwhelming amount of responses for this role.
We had over 40 actors come forward to play Lara Croft, and we had and extremely successful audition turnout, I think all but 1 showed up. It felt great seeing how many people wanted to work on this film and play such an iconic role.
We met some great people during the process, but could only pick one and finally went with Rebecca [Crossdale], due to the fact she showcased the most commitment and enthusiasm for the project. She even turned up fully dressed as Lara Croft, something we never asked for but admired. She was definitely the right choice for the role!
|Rebecca Crossdale's audition.
JA: We ran two days of auditions in London. We had many hopefuls turn up and with each one we'd talk to them about what the character meant to them and established what experience they might have that would benefit them if they played the starring role.
We also did a very short bit of fight choreography with each potential Lara, to get a feel for whether they'd be able to execute the moves I had in mind for the action scenes.
Finally we selected the top two and ran a final workshop with each of them, it was close, but Dylan and I unanimously agreed that our star was Becky Crossdale.
We have never regretted the decision once, she's a pleasure to work with and she's gone above and beyond her role as our lead actress to help us get the film made.
TDD: How did the idea of shooting in Spain come about?
DW: We lost our original producer due to scheduling issues with other productions, so we found another at our university who seemed to really like our idea. It was her idea to take the production to Spain to increase production value for the project, and it turned out to be cheaper to film abroad than in London! Once the rest of the team found out about Spain, it was decided this is what we wanted and I think it helps the aesthetic of the film look professional.
It was a great experience I think other filmmakers should try. We had several production issues, but us knowing we couldn't just hop back on the plane and do a reshoot made us more alert, careful and we were commended for our ability to think on the spot and solve problems quicky! This project has definitely given me a better understanding of how to make a film.
JA: A member of our team came from Almeria in Spain and due to her contacts over there, it seemed like a great option.
TDD: What were the challenges of making this film?
JA: Numerous challenges, our whole crew changed several times before we even finished pre-production, mostly due to scheduling conflicts or visa issues.
When we went across to Spain and arrived in Almeria, our location fell through.
The bulk of the film was originally going to be filmed in some caves, the final film we came away with was very different as our location manager lost our access to the cave the day before we were meant to start shooting. Our whole script went out of the window.
While everyone was asleep, Dylan and I went location scouting at 1am, desperate to save our film from disaster.
After a couple of hours of exploring, we found a castle, which became the main backdrop for our film. Luckily Almeria has some beautiful countryside too, which we used in the final part of our film. We made up the events of the film the next morning after talking to the castle staff. Thankfully the staff at the castle were very friendly and gave us permission to film there.
We had a small problem with our sound recordist, who was coincidentally also our location manager, sadly Almeria being her home town, she preferred going and socialising with old friends rather than doing that much recording. Which means the film's sound that you hear, is pretty much all done in post production with dubbing and foley!

TDD: Shooting a film that requires weaponry abroad is not an easy task. How did you manage that aspect?
DW: The weapons were a worry for a long time. We were in talks with our university on how to go about getting the guns abroad, and in the end we just decided to be honest and phone the flight companies and explain what we wanted and what we were doing. That was the scariest part as the weapons are key to the film, and we were highly doubtful they would allow it. To our surprise they were fine with it, they understood we were students making a film, and asked a few questions about the project and we were approved. It was such a relief and an exciting moment that we were taking weapons across the border! We wouldn't have been able to do any of this without our amazing producer Christi, who was the one contacting the airports and flight companies to get this sorted and thanks to her we had the weapons in the film - and we avoided being arrested! If anyone if thinking about doing the same, just be honest and ask, you'll be surprised how cooperative people and companies actually are with filmmakers!
JA: All credit for that goes to our talented producer Christi Leigh Cooper, she must have got at least 8 different signatures from the highest authorities at our university and contacted customs weeks in advance to explain that we wanted to take props with us.
With lots of work, she managed to pull it off!
TDD: Is there anything you took away from this experience?
DW: I've touched on this a little already but what I took from this experience is most certainly more knowledge of how to make a film. Going abroad has shown all of us that films are not easy to make, you need to be able to think on the spot and under pressure as well as creatively. It's not an easy thing to do. This was one of the best film experiences I had in terms of the things it had taught me and the confidence it gave me as a filmmaker. I loved working on it and I would certainly do it all again!
JA: It helped me develop my ability to adapt quickly to unexpected situations and think of creative ways around problems we encountered on the spot.
Also to make sure you use people who're committed to your film whenever possible because you won't get it made without a massive team effort!
TDD: Any plans to do another Tomb Raider fan film in the future?
DW:😎 Most definitely yes. There was always going to be more than one film. Simone, the screenwriter, is working on the next script. Right now we have several ideas floating around and without revealing too much, there may be involvement of dinosaurs at some point! I also like the idea of setting it in a snowy country, I think that will be a nice change from our last film. I'm really looking forward to bringing everyone back to carry on our Tomb Raider films and sharing them with everyone.
JA: If all goes to plan it's currently planned to be filmed up in Wales and it'll be a much more story driven piece compared to the non stop running in the first film!
Let's hope Rebecca won't have to run around in the snow wearing shorts. 😉
Special thanks to Dylan and James for talking to me! I look forward to your future projects!
Rebecca also wanted to talk to us when she has the chance.

In "minority report," Tom Cruise headed a PreCrime unit that can predict crimes and stop them before they would happen. The system relied on visions of the future generated by three "precogs." Not to give too much away for anyone who hasn't seen the movie, let's just say that future could look a little foggy at times. The PreCrime unit, who had the mandate to carry out aggressive actions to prevent crimes, would thus turn into a source of evil itself.
It looks like we are making progress towards crime predictions in the real world. According to a report from the University of California at Riverside, Dr. Robert Nash Parker, a professor of sociology at the University and a senior researcher at UCR's Presley Center for Crime and Justice Studies, has worked with the local police department to develop a system to predict where burglaries are likely to occur. The system has helped the police department to reduce thefts by 8% in the first nine months of 2013. The local Police Chief Richard P. Twiss proclaimed, "This is the wave of the future." The report can be found at http://ucrtoday.ucr.edu/18856.
It should put everyone's mind to ease that the system does not depend on hallucinations of oracles. So it is not subject to the perils created by the whimsical minds of supernatural beings. Instead, the system is powered by the far more reliable computers, just like every other intelligent things in today's world.
By pouring through the data over the last 10 years, Dr. Parker discovered a correlation between the rate of burglary and truancy arrests. As truancy arrests shifted geographically in the city, burglaries followed one or two years later. This allows him to develop a computer algorithm to predict patterns of burglary over both time and space. The program helps the police department to identify hot spots and deploy police officers for proactive patrols.
The discovery also helps the city to reduce the number of prospective criminals, without obtaining a license to kill inchoate offenders. The police has launched several outreach programs, including a burglary and truancy prevention task force, which focuses on helping parents of out-of-control adolescents to get their children to re-enroll in school.
While the system may seem less magical once the curtain is pulled up, it represents a meaningful progress in crime prevention technology. Aside from telling us where to eat and what to buy, big data can sometimes be useful in tackling social issues.

I would like to make a plea to the TOs out there to have a really hard think about opening the Allied Detachment to the same codex as the Combined Arms Detachment. I find the arguments against this change to be very weak indeed.
Please note that this argument is only intended to be directed at events which ban multiple Combined Arms detachments.
The Genie's Already Out of the Bottle.
Iyanden, Farsight, and the other supplements already allow some armies to ally with themselves. I agree that this quid-pro-quo argument is a bit of a fallacy, but in this case I think it truly doesn't hurt balance across the game as a whole to allow other armies to do it. Eldar and Tau are already very, very good. The Worst is already out there. Adding options for older or non-supplement codices is probably going to do nothing but give the marginalized armies more of a fighting chance. Adding an HQ to Daemons is hardly worse than they've already got and it does seem that some kind of nerf is coming down the pipe for that particular abuse anyways.
Specific abuses should be dealt with specifically whenever possible.
Formations Add AN Option, not Options
I think relying on past and future Formations for balance is fine, but not for variety. I don't want to run the same army as the next guy. Besides, not all armies have this option.
Rules Purity is Not a Worthwhile Goal in This Context
The argument for rules purity doesn't pass the smell test for me. We're already making changes to the rules on a very fundamental level.
Don't get me wrong; I believe very strongly in changing the rules to meet your needs as a player and community. GW has even stated on many occasions that they expect players to change or make up rules to meet their own needs.
So, if we're making changes for the purpose of game balance, why would we unnecessarily hinder some armies for the sake of rules purity? It just doesn't make any sense to me. I'm not being aggressively and intentionally obtuse here... I am genuinely confused by this position.
Again, it is a fallacy to say, "well we're making change x, so we may as well make change y". However, my point is to give some under-performing armies the same considerations that are afforded the newer and more powerful armies.
We Needed it, We Got It, and Now We're Losing It
It felt really good to see that GW had noticed that some armies needed a little extra in light of the new Supplements and Formations, in a way allowing us to develop our own "formations", just without crazy special rules. It feels a little shitty to have that yanked away.
By allowing armies to ally with themselves, TOs wouldn't be giving them something they weren't intended to have, they'd be returning something to them, in a SMALL part, which they'd had in the first place.
Thanks for your time.

Well centered with good color, this is a 1 due to a small scrape on Wagner's face, some creasing by the bottom border and some general wear.

Dow Jones Industrial Average News, 8/10/2016: Traders are still optimistic about the global markets.
The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq are hovering near all-time highs.
Trending: Investing in This Top Tech Trend Is the Best Way to Get Rich Now
This puts the U.S. Federal Reserve in focus, as the markets are trying to determine the timing of the next possible interest rate hike.
However, do not get lulled to sleep by single-digit days for the Dow Jones. In weeks like these, great profit opportunities can emerge in places you might not expect.
Let's get to today's top stock market news, stocks to watch, ways to profit, and economic calendar for Aug. 10, 2016.
What's Moving the Dow Jones Industrial Average Today: Will OPEC Freeze Production?
Dow Jones futures projected a 12-point gain as investors continue to eye oil prices and the remainder of the quarterly earnings calendar. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq are hovering near all-time highs as we look to another round of earnings reports. Money Morning Technical Trading Specialist D.R. Barton argues that investors cannot trust these market levels. Here's his insight on what to do next.
Oil prices were sliding this morning as traders remain skeptical about any plan to reduce production among members of OPEC. With oil prices recently sliding below $40 per barrel, the global oil cartel has set a meeting for the fall to discuss another potential freeze in production to support crude prices. However, last time that OPEC met, the countries failed to reach an accord. Member states Saudi Arabia and Iran remain locked in a political standoff.
On Wednesday, oil prices could move based on inventory data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration. This morning, WTI crude was down 0.5%, while Brent crude prices dipped 0.2%. Today's EIA report is important. But the real trading opportunity comes in a $53 trillion ticking time bomb that has been uncovered by Money Morning analysts. This crisis will be the most important energy story over the next decade. Remember, you read it here first.
Meanwhile, the Delta Air Lines Inc. (NYSE: DAL) stock price is still down this morning as the global travel giant attempts to stabilize its operations. The company canceled more than 1,700 flights in two days due to a computer glitch that downed flights on Monday. The firm said it expects operations back to 100% by Wednesday afternoon.
Now here's your list of top stocks to watch in today's market, plus today's economic calendar:
Companies to Watch in the Stock Market Today
- In earnings news, shares of Michael Kors Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: KORS) fell more than 4.7% despite news that the fashion giant beat earnings expectations. The company reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.88 on top of $987.80 million in revenue. That beat Wall Street expectations of $0.76 on $959.7 million in revenue. The company reported a big decline in same-store sales and offered a very soft forecast for the upcoming quarter. Wall Street doesn't like what it heard.
- Shares of Tesla Motors Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) were off slightly this morning as the company deals with another public relations challenge. CNBC reports that a Chinese motorist has crashed a Tesla vehicle featuring its "autopilot" system. The customer claims that a sales representative sold the vehicle by implying that the car was "self-driving."
- Shares of Walt Disney Co. (NYSE: DIS) are off more than 1.7% in pre-market hours after the company reported a big earnings miss in the company's cable networks business. The firm has seen a sharp decline in subscribers paying for networks like ESPN. Cord-cutting and subscription downgrades have hounded the stock in a time where its cable business costs are on the rise. Overall, the company did beat Wall Street EPS expectations. The firm also topped revenue expectations due to strong sales at its theme parks and at the box office.
- Look for additional earnings reports from Shake Shack Inc. (NYSE: SHAK), Polo Ralph Lauren Corp. (NYSE: RL), Wendys Co. (Nasdaq: WEN), JD.com Inc. (Nasdaq: JD), and Silver Wheaton Corp. (NYSE: SLW).

Beth Moore
Beth Moore was born Wanda Elizabeth Green in 1957, on an Army base in Green Bay, Wisconsin, the fourth of five children. She was raised in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, where her father - a retired army officer - managed the local cinema, and it was there that Beth's lifelong love for stories began. She loved to tell them, write them, and be told them. But the story that captured her heart more than any other was not told in a movie theatre. It was the story told in Sunday School, about Jesus, a Saviour who loved children and who thought she was special. A seed was planted in her young heart that would grow to a passionate love for Christ.
At the age of 18, Beth sensed God calling her to work for Him, although she couldn't yet imagine what that might involve. She graduated from Southwest Texas State University with a degree in political science, and would later receive an honorary doctorate in humanities from Howard Payne University. She married Keith Moore in 1978 and soon after the Lord added Amanda and Melissa to the family.
Beth's involvement with the Bible intensified when she took a doctrine class at her church. Her teacher was Buddy Walters, a former college football player who taught the Scriptures with tears streaming down his cheeks. She fervently prayed for such a passion for God's Word.
Beth founded Living Proof Ministries in 1994 with the purpose of teaching women how to love God's Word and put it at the centre of their lives. She has written numerous books - including Breaking Free, Believing God, The Patriarchs and James: Mercy Triumphs - that have been read by women of all ages, backgrounds, and denominations. Beth runs conferences for women across the United States annually, and has also taken her ministry to many different countries, including Ireland, England, Singapore, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, India, Angola, Kenya, and South Africa. Since 2004, Beth has conducted a radio ministry 'Living Proof with Beth Moore', and has a weekly spot on the television program LIFE Today. Ever the storyteller, Beth is known for enlivening her teaching with stories and poems written from the perspective of biblical characters. She communicates with great energy, humour, warmth, and grace.
For over a quarter of a century from the 1980s, Beth attended the First Baptist Church in Houston, Texas, transferring in 2011 to Bayou City Fellowship, where her son-in-law Curtis Jones is the founding pastor.
Beth and and her husband Keith enjoy travelling, hiking, drinking coffee on the back porch, eating Mexican food, making each other laugh, walking their dogs, and being grandparents. Both of their daughters, Amanda and Melissa, serve with Living Proof Ministries, and Amanda's husband, Curtis, serves on staff as an associate speaker/teacher.

We studied this series at my church, and it was one of the best bible studies I have ever done! Incredibly challenging, and Beth encourages participants to dig deep and allow God to really move them out of their comfort zones, and into a place where we believe Him more.
This study has changed the way I view my life, my family and God. It is one of the most important things I have ever done and I highly recommend it.
I am currently going through this study for the third time.While this is the first time with a group, I am again being reminded how joyous and loving our God is towards each one of His children. Each time I read this study it is a journey into the wonder of God's love for each one of us. Beth writes in a way that sets your heart and mind to hear God speak to you personally and also in the light of His provision for all of His children. You will be challenged to use your heart and your intellect to fall more deeply in love with bible study in an indepth manner. I cannot recommend this study highly enough and once completed you will want to explore The LORD'S word with Beth again.
Belief in God and believing God are two very different things... this study will challenge you to take God at His Word and to apply that belief to your life in a very real way. If you are looking for a study that will grow you in your faith - this is it! God really is Who He says He is - He can do what He says He will do- you are who God says you are - you can do all things through Christ - and God's Word is alive and active in you! By the end of this study your faith in God will be refreshed and you will be able to join Beth in saying "I'm Believing God"!!

It's always been an economic development pickle: You can't attract quality companies without an educated work force. But educated workers won't stick around unless quality companies already are in place.
At Hagerstown Regional Airport, it looks as if there soon will be a mutual meeting of employers and employees, following the announcement that the Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics will open an aviation-technician school in the Top Flight Air Park early next year.
When county officials pushed for a $60 million runway expansion a decade ago, the heat was on to produce results to justify the expense. The aviation school is the latest in a string of successes that might convince early doubters of the project's worthiness.
Before the runway was even completed, the county reported that the number of jobs at the airport had nearly doubled, to more than 1,000. Now, it is home to important aviation companies such as Sierra Nevada Corp., AgustaWestland North America Inc. and, for the time being at least, Northrop Grumman Corp.
