While they were dating, Woo-jin finds out that he won’t be able to compete any more as a swimmer. After the call, Soo-ah schedules a rendez-vous to meet with Woo-jin.ĭespite of their awkward encounter, Soo-ah and Woo-jin start seeing each other more frequently. One day, Woo-jin musters the courage to call Soo-ah under the excuse of retrieving his pen back. Soo-ah went to Seoul for college, while Woo-jin stayed in his home town to pursue his career as a competitive swimmer. The two part ways after high school graduation. Although, Woo-jin always had a crush on Soo-ah, she always seemed very reluctant to accept his advances. In order to help Soo-ah remember her past, Woo-jin tells his wife how they met. However, the woman has no recollection of who Woo-jin (her husband) and Ji-ho (her son) are. To Woo-jin’s surprise, he reunites with his wife exactly an year after her death. Soo-ah told her husband that she would return an year later during the raining season. Woo-jin is a recent widow and before his wife (Soo-ah) passed away, she made an odd promise to him. Today’s post is solely based on the film, not the novel. The film stars So Ji-sub as Woo-jin and Son Ye-jin as Soo-ah. ~All credit for the stills/photos/video used in this review goes to Lotte Entertainment and Movie Rock.Directed by Lee Jang-hoon, the 2018 South Korean fantasy drama is based on the 2003 novel with the same name written by Takuji Ichikawa. It surpassed the one million viewership mark within seven days of its release, a record that is faster than that of its fellow melo-romance films Architecture 101 and The Beauty Inside.įun fact: Be With You is considered as Son Ye-jin and So Ji-sub’s reunion project following their 2001 drama Delicious Proposal where they played siblings.įun fact: Gong Hyo-jin ( Master’s Sun feelz!!!), Park Seo-joon, and Son Yeo-eun appeared in cameo roles in this movie.įinal verdict: Be With You is definitely another classic in the making. According to the Korean Film Council (KOFIC), Be With You attracted over 100,000 moviegoers on its opening day, putting it at the top of the local box office. The film’s good story, storytelling, and acting performances were rewarded with a warm box-office reception. They are one of the reasons why I’m confident that this movie will be a good one, and I’m glad they did not disappoint.įun fact: Son Ye-jin scored a Best Actress nomination at the 54th Baeksang Arts Awards for her role in this film. Though the storyline contains unbelievable circumstances, the two lead stars were still able to deliver believable portrayal of their roles. Meanwhile, So Ji-sub and Son Ye-jin gave us what is expected from them, and that is fine acting. Soo-ah’s decision gave pure love a whole new definition, and to explain it through words will never give it justice. It’s true that Woo-jin and Soo-ah’s love conquered death, but it’s in the sense that the latter still chose to be with Woo-jin and their son Ji-ho (Kim Ji-hwan) despite learning of her fate to die young partly due to her pregnancy. I thought I knew where the movie was headed, with me even hoping for Soo-ah to stay with her family forever and to never return to the Cloudland, but not until the shocking plot twist was revealed-Soo-ah never really came back to life… she leaped through time! Though the use of flashbacks in revealing Soo-ah and Woo-jin’s (So Ji-sub) romance is already a familiar style, it still did not feel overused thanks to the effective acting performances of Kim Hyun-soo and Lee You-jin who played the main leads’ younger counterparts. I consider the movie’s imaginative story and simple storytelling as its main strengths. I have not seen the original film nor read the novel yet so this review is purely based on this adaptation. Fun fact: Be With You is a remake of the 2004 Japanese film of the same name, which is based on a Takuji Ichikawa novel.

This self-generated mythology-an anti-authoritarian truth-teller whose successes stemmed from confronting “ the machine,” as Pool puts it-bears little resemblance to reality.Ĭontrary to the overall manner in which Pool portrays himself, he was not an intrepid field reporter and streamer who barreled into conflict zones filled with an unshakable desire to ferret out the real story. If you buy Pool’s branding, he stands in contrast to the bulk of his journalistic peers: “evil” “liars,” he says, who’ve supposedly capitulated to the agendas of Black Lives Matter, antifa, Democrats, Big Tech companies, feminists, and the like. A former digital media journalist who originally built up his name with on-the-ground reporting and livestreaming, including stints at Vice and Fusion, Pool now postures as a rational centrist or “ disaffected liberal” who grew to loathe the excesses of the left. This glaring omission was not out of character for Pool. He habitually comes to the defense of the Proud Boys, as well.) The following month, Pool used his YouTube platform to say the Oath Keepers had been unjustly “ smeared” by the Southern Poverty Law Center. They are going to take the White House and do whatever they can and paramilitary.” (Pool made these comments to then-colleagues at the media company he started. 3 goes chaotic,” Pool said in early September during a recorded conversation reviewed by The Daily Beast.Ī few minutes later, Pool added: “The right-wing militias, the Oath Keepers, the Three Percenters, and just the Proud Boys and Trump supporters, they are going to rush full-speed to D.C. “Dude, I’ve had messages from people saying that they’ve already got plans to rush to D.C. What Pool kept secret from his younger, overwhelmingly male, decidedly right-leaning audience during this time is that he seemed to have a pretty good idea what might happen on Jan. After all, he was just commenting on the news. At the same time, in each video Pool tried to separate himself from the hardcore conspiracy theorists. Throughout the fall of 2020, the wildly successful YouTube pundit had spent countless hours hyping the blinkered legal strategies and half-baked fantasies about voter fraud animating the online right.

There’s a progress slider and a counter to tell how much free time is at your disposal. Whenever you enter break time, a window shows up on the desktop, letting you know it’s time to take it easy for a while. The couple of value fields contain both minutes and hours to accurately punch in values representing work and rest time. What the application does is countdown from a specified amount of time representing the work period, and suggests to take a break of an interval which you also get to specify. Prevents you from working during break time During runtime, it can be minimized to the tray area so you have all the desktop space to yourself. The interface consists of a classic window frame, which makes accommodation a walk in the park for individuals of all levels of experience. The application becomes active as soon as it’s launched, but you’re free to configure time values for the next session. What’s more, system registry entries don’t need to be modified to ensure functionality, thus keeping the target PC’s health status intact. This not only makes it easy to carry around on a thumb drive, but saves you some time and effort otherwise invested in a setup process to make it work. One of the main advantages is portability. On the bright side, there are different application which help in this regard, and Work Timer is a suitable example here. However, if this is how you earn a living, you might want to also look after your own health, especially your eyes. That said, this seems a likely pick for something Microsoft will push to fruition, given that it’s a pretty neat extra to have for the Start menu (or at least we think so).Īnother change to the Start menu recently spotted in testing is Microsoft labeling its default Windows 11 apps, so the user can clearly see which are the applications that come preinstalled with the OS (such as Calculator, the Settings app, and so on).Īgain, this is a move we reckon is almost certainly inbound for the final release version of Windows 11, as it’s a further useful addition into the mix for the Start menu (and not a difficult one to implement, of course).Even though there’s a computer in nearly every office, it doesn’t mean all activities involve using it. In short, it’s still very early days for this functionality, and as ever with features in testing, we may not ever see this in the release version of Windows 11. They’re not fully finished yet, and were only enabled by these leakers using a Windows configuration tool to dig around in the background of the operating system. Microsoft hasn’t announced it, and these file previews are actually hidden in the OS currently. Remember that this is just a rough version of the feature in Windows 11 right now. Other details imparted with a quick hover include the file’s location on your drive, and the last time it was edited (with Microsoft set to add more info, no doubt). That way, you can see if it’s the image you want before actually going to the trouble of opening it (and getting annoyed if it’s not the one you thought it was, wasting time as it fires up in your image editor). As Windows Latest, which also spotted this change in testing, reports, in the case of an image file, to take an example, this will produce a small thumbnail of the photo being hovered over. To determine the polarity with a multimeter, use the following steps: But according to Home Steady, this will only tell you whether or not the battery has power. You can touch the red and black probes of a voltmeter to the battery’s terminals. Laypeople confuse multimeters with voltmeters. The manual will tell you what you need to know. What if their information is outdated? Don’t take any chances. Don’t base your interpretation on what other people say. Once again, check the manual to figure out what each color means. Some manufacturers assign a unique color to each terminal. You see this in power plugs where one prong is longer and slightly wider than the others. For instance, the shape of each terminal may vary. If you check the manual, it will show you how to determine the polarity. However, the ‘+’ and ‘-’ signs are easy to interpret. The language on the packaging may change depending on the origins of the battery. Manufacturers usually label their batteries. Fortunately, you have numerous methods at your disposal for identifying the terminals, including the following: 1). However, most of the time, the power tool will simply refuse to work.īut that is not an excuse to mix up the terminals. You may notice sparks in extreme circumstances. Your battery won’t explode because you reversed the polarity. But such outcomes occur because of extreme temperatures, breaks and tears, and the like. The most problematic is fires and explosions. The positive terminal is the anode, and it receives the electrons.Ī paper in the Journal of Energy Chemistry highlights the dangers batteries attract when you mishandle them. BYJUS calls the negative terminal the cathode. Therefore, you probably own a Dewalt power tool.Ī battery has a positive terminal, a negative terminal, and an electrolyte. Prescient And Strategic intelligence say that the power tool market is growing exponentially. Right now I’m living in the time that people often look back on and say were the best times of their lives. One of the things I tell myself whenever I’m feeling overwhelmed is that they will only be this age once. This can be a chaotic time with kids and toast and dogs all flying around the kitchen.

Metal gas and fire stations enhance the play value of Marx vehicles. Marx toys such as Studebaker trucks, were well represented in mail-order catalogs such as Sears Roebuck & Company. The 14 1/2” 1935 G-Man pursuit car was the largest Marx made. Other lithographed forms included airplanes, luxury liners, rocket ships, tanks, and tractors. Marx crazy cars such as the Funny Flivver and Joy Riders were extremely popular. Windup toys featuring a toy going around a fixed track included the Honeymoon Express, Mickey Mouse Express, and Subway Express. Marx produced a wide range of licensed character toys such as Amos ‘n’ Andy, Charlie McCarthy, and Popeye. In addition to Alabama Coon Jigger, the Merrymakers was another early success. Toy types ranged from cars, motorcycle, trains, and trucks. Marx dominated the lithograph tin toy market prior to 1940. Leading categories include action figures, lithograph tin, playsets, toy trains, and vehicles. Marx distributed/made a wide variety of toys. Louis Marx died in 1982 at the age of 85. Eventually, most action figure prototypes and playsets were sold to Chuck Saults and a few to Gene Sacala. Jay Horowitz’s American Plastic Equipment purchased the Marx toy assets. By 1980, Dumbee-Combex Marx closed the Glen Dale, West Virginia plant and filed for bankruptcy. In early 1976, Dunbee-Combex Marx, a British conglomerate, bought the remaining American and English Marx operations. In 1976, Quaker Oats closed the plants in Erie and Girard. Also, Quaker Oats made a decision not to involve Marx in the growing electronic toy market. Quaker Oats expected a synergy to develop between the two companies. Quaker Oats owned Fisher-Price at the time. In 1972, Marx sold his company to Quaker Oats and retired at age 76. Growing labor costs made it difficult to compete with cheap Japanese imports. Toys produced in Japan were marked under the Linemar brand. Marx started producing some of its toys in Japan in the mid-1950s. In January 1946, Fortune Magazine dubbed Louis Marx “The Toy King,” a title reconfirmed by Time Magazine in 1955. The Girard plant was acquired in 1934 via the purchase of the Girard Model Works, a producer of toy trains.īy 1950s, Marx was the largest toy manufacturer in the world. Marx’s revenues grew during the Depression as the company established factories in Girard and Erie, Pennsylvania, Glen Dale, West Virginia, and Swansea Wales in England. Although some earlier toys were sold under the Marx brand, they were made by outside manufacturers. Louis and David Marx were millionaires by 1922. Marx identified six key qualities for a successful toy-comprehensibility, familiarity, play value, skill, sturdiness, and surprise. More than eight million of each were sold within two years. The company’s first toys used former Strauss molds to produce the Alabama Coon Jigger and Zippo The Climbing Monkey toys. how to adjust your sleeping area to promote good sleep.how to use recovery and rest time appropriately.the impact of caffeine and alcohol on sleep.Support staff as far as possible (and ask staff about the best way to do this).Īs an employee, you can make choices that help to minimise the negative effects of shift work on your health and wellbeing. Be alert for the contribution of fatigue in accident investigations.If possible, allow employees longer periods off if they must sleep during the day.Aim to manage shift work and overtime so that employees have regular opportunities for adequate recovery through high-quality sleep. Be aware of the times when people are most likely to be affected by fatigue.Make food available to staff where appropriate.Make sure staff take regular rest breaks during shifts.If you need your staff to work long hours or do shift work here are a few tips to help prevent fatigue-related problems: Drink a cup of chamomile or valerian tea 1–2 hours before bed.Īs an employer, you want productive, happy staff and to minimise workplace accidents.Drinking alcohol before bed may disturb your sleep and require you to go the toilet more often during the night.Talk to your doctor about any sleep problems.Sleeping pills can lead to abnormal sleep patterns and may be addictive.Have healthy snacks like fruit and fruit juice, raw vegetables and cheese.Restrict your intake of caffeine in the hours before you go to bed.

After 4 nights, you will have lost 6 hours of sleep. Shift workers lose an average of 1–1.5 hours of sleep each 24-hour period. Of course, there's likely a meaning beneath the term that will only be revealed in context. It'll be interesting to see if Forspoken truly is the next Final Fantasy 14 expansion's subtitle, whether the word is intended to mean being ensorcelled and controlled or if it means cursed and driven. Those who have completed Final Fantasy 14's recent 5.4 "Future's Rewritten" patch, which involves a witch, may be able to draw some conclusions regarding where the next expansion would go.Īn alternative meaning for Forspoken is to attract and fascinate, which is not so unlike being bewitched but is much different than being cursed. But in use, it's more typically associated with being cursed or bewitched. At its most generic, Forspoken means to have been denounced or to be denied. Forspoken, as a compound word with multiple meanings, fits into that group very well.įurther, Forspoken fits as the new expansion's subtitle thematically, as well. Final Fantasy 14's previous expansions have been named Heavensward, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers. However, even at face value, the association should be somewhat clear. The connection is purely a guess on the part of fans. After all, there's no otherwise clear association between the Forspoken trademark and Final Fantasy 14. RELATED: Final Fantasy 14: Dad of Light Author Passes AwayĪs for why Forspoken is believed to be a Final Fantasy 14 expansion subtitle, that takes a bit of explaining. Only now, when fans are looking specifically for a Final Fantasy 14 expansion subtitle, has it drawn renewed attention. The tweet makes clear that the trademark was originally filed by Square Enix on September 24 and published on October 13, though it went unnoticed at the time. Given the lack of a clear association with any Square Enix property, it was perhaps ignored. The Forspoken trademark was only just recently discovered, shared online by a Twitter scrawler of recently-published Japanese trademarks. A recently discovered Square Enix trademark for "Forspoken" could end up being the new Final Fantasy 14 expansion's subtitle. Anxious for new details, fans have been scouring the internet for potential leaks and one just may have been found. In February, Square Enix and producer Naoki Yoshida will hold one of their beloved live events, during which fans expect the next Final Fantasy 14 expansion to be announced. Final Fantasy 14 fans are currently holding back their excitement. |
