'Ms. Marvel' Director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy Breaks Down Big Twist in Penultimate Episode
[The following story contains spoilers for Ms. Marvel's fifth episode, "Time and Again."]
At first glance, a documentarian who's won two Oscars and seven Emmys doesn't seem like the most obvious fit for Marvel Studios' latest Disney+ series, Ms. Marvel — but Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy quickly proved herself to be the most ideal choice.
Obaid-Chinoy directed episodes four and five of Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel's (Iman Vellani) origin story, and the two episodes took Kamala on a trip to modern-day Karachi, Pakistan, as well as to the distant past in the form of 1947's partition of India. The Pakistani-Canadian filmmaker not only grew up in Karachi, but she's also devoted her life to documenting the partition of India, which turned British India into the independent dominions of India and Pakistan.
"I started an oral history archive in Pakistan in 2007. It is the largest oral history archive of the partition in Pakistan. So we've recorded over 3,000 interviews, and we have over 40,000 photographs from 1947 in our archive. We also built the first museum about partition in Pakistan," Obaid-Chinoy tells The Hollywood Reporter.
So if anyone was going to bring authenticity to this point in Kamala's journey, it was Obaid-Chinoy, but even she recognized that her hiring was a roll of the dice. "Initially, I really did think about the insanity of giving these two episodes to a documentary filmmaker who's never done narrative, but then as I began to look at them … I completely understood why I was tasked with it," Obaid-Chinoy says.
In a spoiler conversation with THR, Obaid-Chinoy also broke down the big twist involving Kamala's role in her family's partition story.
Ms. Marvel is a complete left turn from your previous work as a documentarian, although something tells me that you may have found a connection between the two. So why did you want to help tell this story?
For the better part of two decades, I have been telling stories of extraordinary people who are creating change in their communities, whether it's health or education or climate change. They are superheroes, but they're heroes without capes. And they have all found their voices on this journey towards connecting with their communities. So when Ms. Marvel came to me and I was deciding whether I'd want to put my hat in the ring for it, I thought, "This would be the perfect project for me to cross over, because it's true to my values of trying to create films that open people's eyes to something that they wouldn't necessarily have gravitated towards and it introduces people to a different world." So Ms. Marvel fit all of that for me, and I thought I could contribute towards Ms. Marvel's story.
What did your earliest conversations with Marvel entail?
So very early on, I had meetings with the supervising producers, and we just talked about why I wanted to do the project and what I could bring to the project. And then just before the pandemic hit, I flew to L.A. and met with [Marvel President] Kevin Feige, Victoria [Alonso], Lou [D'Esposito], Jenna Berger, who was the supervising producer at that time, and [head writer-EP] Bisha K. Ali. And then I gave this presentation, right down to what Kamala should be wearing. So I thought about the story long and hard. I have two daughters, and I thought about how this superhero would change the way my own daughters see superheroes and see themselves in this divisive world that we live in. So I thought about how I'd want to shape the character and how I would bring authentic voices to help Kamala tell her story.
In episode five, you were tasked with recreating real-world history in the form of 1947's partition of India. Did you utilize archive footage so that unfamiliar viewers would immediately know that this was a very real story despite its depiction in the heightened Marvel universe?
The partition of the Indian subcontinent has very rarely been visualized, and even though it was one of the largest mass migrations that the world saw, it is not a world event that everyone is familiar with. So I thought that the best way to contextualize where we were and what the stakes were, was to draw from history.
I started an oral history archive in Pakistan in 2007. It is the largest oral history archive of partition in Pakistan. So we've recorded over 3,000 interviews, and we have over 40,000 photographs from 1947 in our archive. We also built the first museum about the partition in Pakistan. So I have dedicated my entire life and my energies towards understanding the partition because no independent archives existed in my country. There wasn't anything that really talked about the true heartbreak and horror that people went through, but also the triumph.
And so when I read episodes four and five, I was really delighted that I was the director who was tasked to bring them to life. Initially, I really did think about the insanity of giving these two episodes to a documentary filmmaker who's never done narrative, but then as I began to look at them and spend time with them and live and breathe them, I completely understood why I was tasked with it.
I'm amazed by the fact that so much material exists and that you already possessed a lot of it.
Early on, I drew from the oral histories from the Citizens Archive of Pakistan and from the Citizens Archive of India. Those are two independent archives that exist in both the countries. And then I went into Margaret Bourke-White's photographs from 1947. She photographed the processions leaving their homes, refugee tent camps and the train stations. And then Jules O'Loughlin, my DP, myself, Christopher Glass, the production designer, Arjun Bhasin, our costume designer, [executive producer] Sana Amanat and Jenna Berger sat down after I pulled hundreds of photographs. I made this drive, and then I shared that with all the [department heads].
So in episode four and episode five, every single frame that deals with the partition is a recreation of an image that I had seen and wanted to bring to life in this story. For the first time, we had been given the opportunity to tell the story of partition to an audience that is truly global and international. So the script came with a responsibility on my part to do justice to that time. So many of our stories and so many of our families are linked to 1947, and it was something that I took very seriously in recreating.
All season long, we've been hearing about Kamala's family's partition story, and then episode five revealed that Kamala was actually the one who helped young Sana (Zion Usman) onto the train, not Aisha (Mehwish Hayat). What were the most important factors to you as you presented this reveal?
This story of partition is the story of one family that was torn apart, and it's emblematic of so many stories of families torn apart. So when Hasan [Fawad Khan] goes onto the platform and loses baby Sana, you hear him screaming out her name. That story of calling out your child's name in this unfamiliar place, with the bustle and the mother who gets stabbed just a few tracks away, intercutting literally the breakup of a family in this truly chaotic time, was important. The tension had to build to a level where you could feel the pain of the father, the mother, and the daughter, as all three of them grappled with the events that were unfolding around them.
So for the first half of partition, I wanted Kamala to be Kamala. I did not want her to be a superhero because she was going to be bearing witness to this very important historical moment. And when she walked on the platform for the first time, I wanted her to hear snippets of people's conversations and to understand what it meant for people to leave their homes, their lives, their best friends and their family members. I wanted her to understand where she was before she found her great grandmother [Aisha] and saved her grandmother [Sana].
Kamala conjured platforms for Sana to walk across, but then she was knocked over and seemingly lost her connection to Sana. Did the subsequent trail of stars still come from Kamala, or did Sana and Aisha somehow contribute to them, too?
They came from Kamala. She saved her grandmother. When she fell, that broke the platforms that she was creating, but it resulted in the trail of stars, which Hasan saw.
Each mother in this episode had to learn to let go of their child at a certain point. Aisha had to do so much earlier than present-day Sana (Samina Ahmad), Muneeba (Zenobia Shroff) and Najma (Nimra Bucha), but what's your impression of that through line?
The entire series is about mothers and daughters, and it's about their relationships and the sacrifices that they make. Each mother and daughter in the series has a different relationship, but together, they have a very universal bond. But it also tells a story about how mothers have to let go of their daughters so that they can go and find their own voices.
Since you're from Karachi, are there any personal or autobiographical touches that you were able to include on the modern-day sets?
In recreating Karachi, I thought about all the landmarks that I had visited when I was growing up and the things that meant most to me. I wanted the audience to walk the streets of Karachi through my sort of lens and how I see my streets. So the color and the vivaciousness of Karachi were important to recreate. Karachi is always seen through this yellow filter, and I wanted people to see what Karachi is, which is bright and colorful.
Because of this series, people all around the world now have a better understanding of Muslim and Pakistani culture. Was accurately depicting your culture to the uninitiated one of the many benefits of this job?
Absolutely. It is so important to have storytellers behind the camera who can bring authenticity to it. We often see Pakistan, or we often see Muslims, but the storytellers are not from that region. And when they are from that region, they bring a heart and soul to the storytelling that is very different. It's a connectivity that is very different. Why does Ms. Marvel shine so much? Why does it authentically tell a story? It's because Marvel put together the most diverse cast and crew that you can think of. Crew, especially, came from around the world in order to tell this story, and they all drew on their own experiences to create costumes, production design and props. So I think that's why the vivaciousness of Ms. Marvel really comes through. You can actually see that there is a through line of jokes and language and music and festivities that have been woven in, and they speak to the communities where these stories come from.
Have you already started to feel the impact of this story and character on Muslim and Pakistani children?
I will say that my inbox is full of people reaching out from all around the world to say that their children finally have a representation of themselves on screen. And so I think that that is extremely important. The idea that anybody can be a hero is true representation.
Now that you've had your first go-round with narrative storytelling in the MCU, would you like to reunite with Kamala someday?
I would love to continue to be a part of the storytelling team that tells her story, but there are some bigger horizons for Kamala in The Marvels. There are other storylines that she has to conquer now.

After Joining OnlyFans Alongside Her And Charlie Sheen's Daughter, Denise Richards Reveals How She's Adjusting To The Platform
PETA Demands an Investigation at HBO After Horse Dies on Set of The Gilded Age
They say it's the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary, and that's likely particularly true if you've been denied access to those things for an extended period of time. After Britney Spears was released from the conservatorship she'd been under, the singer has been reintroducing herself to some of life's simple pleasures. Last summer Spears was super pumped about regaining the freedom to drive, and in January the "Toxic" singer documented drinking her first glass of wine in over a decade. The newlywed continued to celebrate the post-conservatorship life by sharing her first trip to a bar.
Fans of the former pop singer are accustomed to seeing Britney Spears dancing and twirling and modeling different outfits at her and Sam Asghari's new home. However, the "Toxic" singer took her followers on an exciting field trip, in which she and her assistant patronized a local drinking establishment. She shared her trip — and a sarcastic remark — on Instagram:

As she and her assistant Victoria Asher apparently enjoyed a drink and an app, Britney Spears couldn't help but throw a little shade at her family, remarking that she was "so so grateful" for not being allowed to have a cocktail for the 13 years after her father Jamie Spears took control of her life. In fact, the 40-year-old said in her post this is her first time to partake in such an adventure. In the video, she shared:
This is my first time at a bar. First time. I feel so fancy, and I feel so sophisticated.
Britney Spears definitely deserves to enjoy all of the fancy and sophisticated things in life. It was a lot more than the keys to the car and a glass of wine that were denied Britney for those 13 years. She's compared her Jamie's Spears' treatment of her to sex trafficking, saying she was forced to work against her will seven days a week with no days off. She testified that she was not allowed to get married or remove her IUD to try to have another baby.
She also said she was not allowed to perform new music or remix her old songs, and it seems like that's another freedom she's taking back. It's been reported that the "Baby One More Time" singer met with Elton John to do a duet of "Tiny Dancer in a "super secret" recording session. Her new husband Sam Asghari also has hinted that his wife hopes to return to performing at some point.
Speaking of Sam Asghari, the end of the conservatorship meant that Britney Spears was finally allowed to marry her longtime boyfriend, who proposed in September 2021. Spears and Asghari tied the knot in a fairytale wedding June 9, in front of friends including Paris Hilton, Drew Barrymore and Madonna, before embarking on a two-week yacht honeymoon. The free life certainly looks good on the former pop star, and even as the court battles related to Spears' conservatorship continue, we love to see her taking full advantage of her freedom.
Sure, they may have eaten a person back in the day. But there are some things the grown women of Yellowjackets just wouldn't do. On this, the actresses who play them — Tawny Cypress, Juliette Lewis, Melanie Lynskey and Christina Ricci — agree, as they gather in a backyard in L.A.'s Topanga Canyon in late July, just a few weeks before they start filming the second season of their breakout show.
The Showtime survival thriller, created and executive produced by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, earned seven Emmy nominations, including outstanding drama series and acting nominations for Lynskey and Ricci. The Yellowjackets storyline alternates between 1996 and the present day as it follows members of a high school girls soccer team whose plane crashes and strands them for 19 months in the wilderness, where they resort to cannibalism to survive.
Part of the show's nostalgic appeal relies on its casting of these actresses, three of whom audiences knew as young women for their slyly offbeat roles in films like The Addams Family (Ricci), Cape Fear (Lewis) and Heavenly Creatures (Lynskey), to play the crash survivors as adults. In this conversation with THR, Cypress, Lewis, Lynskey and Ricci disclose their '90s regrets, share what it means when you call an actress "quirky" and reveal how survival bonds women — including in the trenches of Hollywood.
Who here knew each other before the show?
MELANIE LYNSKEY (Points to Christina Ricci.) We knew each other a little bit. I went to a Nick Cave concert by myself, and Christina came up and —
CHRISTINA RICCI I was very excited to see you.
LYNSKEY So excited. We were having a lovely chat, and then she's like, "Are you here by yourself?" She's the coolest person of all time, and I was intimidated. I just felt embarrassed to say, "I've come to a concert by myself." I was like 24 or something.
RICCI I was impressed because I couldn't go anywhere by myself.
LYNSKEY I also went to see Clay Aiken by myself because nobody would come with me.
It's surprising that none of you had worked together over the years.
JULIETTE LEWIS It's wild when you've been around so long, and you sort of have a kindred connection to people. There's certain actors you're like, "Mmm, we're not of the same tree," and then there's other actors you're like, "Oh, yeah. We have some roots."
Juliette, Melanie and Christina, all three of your Wikipedia entries say some version of, "Often plays quirky or offbeat characters." What do those words mean to you?
LEWIS Real people, specific and unpredictable.
LYNSKEY I remember I got cast in a movie when I was like 21, and the description of the character before I auditioned was "Blah, blah, blah, the beautiful girl who sits next to him in school." Then, at the table read, it had been changed to "Blah, blah, blah, cute and quirky." I was like, "You don't need to change it. Just keep it …" They're like, "We better change this description or people will be like, wrong actress." So, sometimes it feels … I don't know. I never liked that word, "quirky."
RICCI When you say that all of us had this description, that to me speaks to a past time, when, if you weren't the leading-lady ingenue then you were quirky and offbeat. All right, so there's two groups for actresses? In a way, I'm fine with being in the category I'm in because what it means to me is that I have made an effort in my career to do things that I feel like I haven't seen before. So, in some ways, I like it. In other ways, I'm like, "Ugh." It's a little dismissive. A little cute and dismissive.
LEWIS We come from the '90s where, when I had blond hair, I was the pretty airhead, and then I dyed my hair dark, and I was the wisecracking, sarcastic girl. But yeah, I think it's really neat that we've all carved this path of range and specificity.
Isn't another term for that "character actor"?
RICCI But "character actress" used to be something they used to describe an ugly woman.
TAWNY CYPRESS Or Abe Vigoda.
RICCI Back in the late '90s, my agents were always like, "We have to be so careful you don't become a character actress. If we're not careful, you're going to end up just like Jennifer Jason Leigh." I was like, "I like her." They were so afraid of me not being a leading lady, of me not being sexually attractive to people. It was really the last thing I ever wanted, was for anyone to be attracted to me.
LEWIS My dad was a character actor. So to me, it was something that was super noble. It was a world of adventure and not limiting. I rebelled against the system, the PR system of being in some bizarre idea of beauty. I really revolted against that, for better or for worse. Crying in a bathroom at a photo shoot, like, "I won't come out." They want these doe-eyed looks. That's for sure what I didn't do in pictures, so I always looked slightly insane, which I prefer over, like, "Do you want to fuck me?"
Tawny, what was your sense of what the expectations were for you when you were starting out?
CYPRESS I've had a different row to hoe. I've spent my whole career doing shitty roles of the sassy one on the side. Honestly, growing up as an actor, I wanted to be an ingenue.
LEWIS Isn't that funny? And I wanted to be sassy and opinionated.
CYPRESS I couldn't be an ingenue. I just couldn't. It's just not in me, you know? I was never presented with those roles, ever, and I was like, "Oh, OK. That's not who I am." I sort of, growing older, have embraced my Jersey side, and I am who I am, and this is what you get.
LYNSKEY I started calling myself a character actor in interviews when I was really young because I think it was reclaiming the term or something. I think I just was like, "That's what I am." My agents had all that kind of intensity around it, too. I remember when I did Coyote Ugly —
RICCI Oh my God, you got a piece in that? I went up for that, and I didn't get it.
CYPRESS I did too.
LYNSKEY I played the best friend from Jersey. But the scrutiny that was on Piper [Perabo], who's one of the coolest, smartest women, just the way people were talking about her body, talking about her appearance, focusing on what she was eating. All the girls had this regimen they had to go on. It was ridiculous. I was already starving myself and as thin as I could possibly be for this body, and I was still a [size] four. That was already people putting a lot of Spanx on me in wardrobe fittings and being very disappointed when they saw me, the costume designer being like, "Nobody told me there would be girls like you." Really intense feedback about my physicality, my body, people doing my makeup and being like, "I'm just going to help you out by giving you a bit more of a jawline and stuff." Just the feedback was constantly like, "You're not beautiful. You're not beautiful." In your early 20s, so much of it is about beauty, and how people respond to you, and do people want to fuck you? Do people think you're their best friend? Even the best friend thing, I started to be like, "I don't want to do that too many times."
Did you have to unlearn anything that people tried to teach you when you were starting out?
LEWIS I had developed such a survival mechanism to protect my autonomy, sort of, "You don't own me. You don't tell me my value. Only I do." I was extremely self-critical — it still happens — of my work. It's almost like a defense mechanism that no one could talk shit about me more than I can. There's all these things that are wrapped up in how to survive a system. That's what I'm unlearning today — to be softer. This is a really remarkable industry to be a part of. I feel honored to be a part of it and what it gave me, but I do still hold on to what it took from me in my youth.
Given what you all experienced coming into the industry, do you feel at all protective of the younger actresses who play the younger versions of your characters?
LYNSKEY (Begins to cry.) So much. I feel very protective. At the beginning of production, I sent them all an email, and I just was like, "Whatever you need, if you need a voice, if you need someone to go to the producers for you, whatever you need," and they were kind of like, "Cool. Thanks." They're fine.
CYPRESS Totally fine. Jas [Jasmin Savoy Brown] was a boss on set. She's like, "This is how we're doing my hair. This is what we're doing."
RICCI They're very much of a different generation.
CYPRESS I am protective of Jas in the fact that she is so sexually positive, which I love. She has taught me so much, just knowing her as a person. But I'm like a mama bear to her, or a big sister. I'm like, "What are you putting online right now?" She's like, "Whatever. Whatever. This is life, man. I love myself." I'm protective, but I'm also in awe of her, you know?
LEWIS But there is a thing I always want to say to young people: Cultivate other interests deeply so that you're not getting all your life's blood from this industry, or your self-worth.
Is there anything you miss about the '90s?
LYNSKEY I have a lot of love letters from the '90s.
RICCI Someone used to fax me love letters when he was on tour. I did not save them. I throw everything out. I had a specific thing when I was a child, that we would be punished by the things that we loved being destroyed. My husband, who is a much healthier individual, has gone back and found all my old magazine covers on Etsy because he thinks it's horrible that I never saved them. As a child, I learned that this is going to be taken from me, so why save it anyway?
LYNSKEY That's heartbreaking. Well, I saved everything because I'm basically an emotional hoarder. I have this literal suitcase, an old-fashioned suitcase.
RICCI This is very dark, but I would just like to go back to that age and do it over again and not make so many fucking mistakes. Honestly, I regret so much.
CYPRESS Me too. One thousand percent.
LEWIS Me too.
RICCI I'd like to go back to 1996 and be like, "All right … we had a practice run. It went OK, but it wasn't really as great as we wanted it to be. We're going to do this again." People who are like, "I have no regrets." What fucking magic life did you live?
LEWIS Where they go, "I don't regret anything because that led up to this moment." Really? The thing that could've put my dad in an early grave, I fucking regret it. Yes. I was very scary as a young teenage person.
CYPRESS Yeah. I hurt a lot of people growing up, and I wish that I didn't. I was going through my memory box. It was my great-great-grandmother's she brought over from Hungary. It's huge, and it's filled to the brim with everything from my life. I came across a note from high school. It was my first gay friend, and it broke my heart because he was like, "I want to thank you for not talking to me anymore and just cutting me off the way that you did. It made it hurt less." I literally was crying, and I had to call him and be like, "I just came across this note, and I'm so sorry that I was that person to you." When I think back, I think how wonderful our relationship was, but I was a shit, you know? I would definitely do so many things differently.
LEWIS I've had those moments where I turned into … Because I've been bullied, but when I was 11 and got in a fight with a girl, I was mean [the same way] how a girl was mean to me. I was really vicious.
LYNSKEY I think people without regrets are narcissists. I think they're lying to themselves.
RICCI Denial is the only way to get up that river.
What did you all feel when you learned that Roe v. Wade was overturned?
RICCI It's really horrible to be told so plainly what your value is.
LEWIS I wish the two factions can talk, like, "Hey, what do you do with a bad situation, poverty and drug addiction, and rape?" You have to have an option that is salvageable or is sustainable for the survival of a person, a woman who's living.
CYPRESS I don't really give a shit what your reason to have an abortion is. It's your fucking body. I don't really fucking care. You don't want to be a mom, right? That's your fucking decision. Look, we can put morals on it and say, "Well, only when you're raped, or only if it's …" It's like no, dude. It's either in or out. We're either telling women what to do with their bodies or we let them have their own choice. I am of the mind, choice. I'm not going to judge you for making that decision.
LYNSKEY And there seems to be this general lack of compassion and empathy that's just growing and growing. There's so much hatred, and people are unable to look at another person's life and go, "Oh, you know, that's an untenable situation," or even, "That's a difficult situation." There's no grace given to anybody else. There's no empathy. You don't get to make decisions for somebody else. You don't know what's right for them.
Is there a place for TV and film in that conversation?
CYPRESS I mean, that's what TV and film do. That's what art is. On Yellowjackets, let's talk about Shauna's baby in the woods, you know? Yeah. I think we have a lot of room to speak on this subject, and I hope we do.
Did anybody have their kids on set for season one?
LYNSKEY (Points to Ricci.) We did.
RICCI And I was pregnant. I didn't tell anyone but these ladies that I was pregnant for six months. When we started, I was six weeks pregnant. It was difficult. There were so many times where I was like, "Ooh, when they find out I'm pregnant, and they made me sit in this smoky room all day. When they realize that they made me stand for eight hours, and I'm pregnant, and I have this horrible sciatica, and it's 100 degrees, oh, they're going to feel so bad." They didn't feel bad at all. But anyway, it was fine. In fact, it would've been helpful if I was playing a more emotional character because I can give a real good performance when I'm pregnant, real emo.
How would you finish the sentence, "Yellowjackets is really about …"?
CYPRESS Women. PTSD.
LYNSKEY Trauma.
CYPRESS Friendship.
RICCI Haunting, the way trauma haunts you. The way you can never escape. The way it twists people in different ways.
LEWIS Aberrant survival tactics.
We know that these characters have done a bunch of aberrant things, as you say, including cannibalism. But do you have in your mind an idea that, "OK, she may have eaten another human being, but she would never do this"?
RICCI I know when they confront me because I'm like, "OK, she wouldn't do that." Misty wouldn't drink that drink. Originally, in the script, she was drinking a Brandy Alexander, and I said, "No, Misty would drink a chocolate martini." I have rules and stuff for her in my head, and they do conflict with the writers sometimes. I don't think she actually is interested in men, at all. I think she does it because she's bored, or because she thinks that's what she's supposed to do. Then, she's also realized that she can have a lot of fun trying to trick them into having sex with her when they don't want to. It's like men will kind of know that you don't want to have sex with them, but if they can get you to have sex with them, they won.
LEWIS It's a power thing.
RICCI Misty's way of doing it is through this really horrible manipulation, making him feel guilty and having sex with her while feeling guilty, which would be a terrible experience.
When you have a different perspective on your character than the writers, what do you do?
RICCI That's part of the thing with TV that I've learned now, being involved in a production but not being one of the EPs, so you aren't a part of creating what people do. "OK, they wrote this scene. I have to play this scene. If she was in this situation, how the fuck would she be in this situation, and why would she be?" Then, you don't have to tell other people what you come up with. They can find out about it later when you do press.
Does anybody else have a line in their mind that their character wouldn't cross?
LYNSKEY I had one. There was something written into a script where I was going on a date with my lover, and they had me going into my daughter's bedroom and taking her underwear, which was just not practical because I wouldn't fit it. She's little. But also, ew. I think there was something, apparently, somewhere, people liked the thing in the pilot where I'm masturbating in my daughter's bedroom. I was like, "Can that just be an isolated incident? I don't want it to be a theme." So I just was like, "I don't want to do that." They were great about it.
LEWIS It comes, I think, with experience and respect, that they appreciate if you have a point of view. I have an "anything goes" stamp on me, which they all know. But I have strong ideas, especially about my trajectory in midlife. I've looked at Natural Born Killers recently, and I'm like, "Jesus." Thank goodness I had a partner like Woody Harrelson, but it is so sexual. No one forced me into that. I was a young nihilist who didn't give a fuck, and I felt comfortable with Woody, and I liked the material. But nowadays, I'm very particular. So, they had written a sex scene, and I was like, "I don't know. I don't know that she even gets off. I don't know that she even can have orgasms." That's how deep I went. So it was more like, is she doing something to get something? At the end of the day, I just didn't even think she fucks, sorry to be so graphic, at this juncture that you saw in season one. I think she might've had relationships with all of them in the wilderness. I don't know if they're going to write it, but that's what I'd like to think of Natalie.
LYNSKEY That's what I think too.
RICCI What? I never thought of that. Who would they be making out with? I guess each other.
The finale hints that there may be additional Yellowjackets who survived into adulthood. Have actors been cast for those roles?
LEWIS Wait, Melanie, didn't you say that on our chain, that someone we like is cast to be … (At this point there is meaningful eye contact among the four women.)
RICCI We don't know for sure. That's what we've heard was close to happening.
LYNSKEY We don't know anything.
On season one, you were making this show under the radar. Now there's so much fan speculation. Does that change the way you approach the work?
RICCI There's more pressure going into season two.
CYPRESS Have you guys also had that feeling of like, "Can I do this? Is it going to be good, the second season? Am I going to fuck this character up?"
LYNSKEY I have those fears.
RICCI Me too, but because TV is so fast, and you have so little time with the information, the process of talking about the show afterward helps you to evolve your take on your character. To understand things that were intended with the character that maybe weren't clear originally because you get to hear the EPs talk about it. I'm going to make changes in the next season based on what I have come to realize through all this talking.
Like what?
RICCI Well, that's a secret.
How much do you want to know about the path that your character is on?
CYPRESS Fuck, I want to know everything. I sit there, and when I think about the show, I think, "What the fuck are they going to do with this character?" There's so many different parts to her right now. The dog thing. She's now a senator. There may be an old love coming back, you know? I'm like, "How are they going to do this?" I just want to know.
LYNSKEY Now you're a full-time dog killer.
RICCI I didn't even know that you were supposed to be the one that killed the dog.
CYPRESS What?
RICCI I thought, "Oh, well maybe somebody broke in."
LYNSKEY That could still be, right?
CYPRESS Wait, give me more to think about.
So you don't go to the writers and say, "To be clear, did I kill the dog?"
CYPRESS Oh, we do. They just say, "Mmm."
RICCI "We don't know."
CYPRESS But they do know.
RICCI I don't think they're trying to control us with no information or anything. Sometimes, they don't want to commit to something that hasn't been necessarily set in stone. I do find it frustrating to not know, and we're never able to know fully. I have decided to learn how to function with knowing nothing.

Shockwaves from Warner Bros.'s cancelation of Batgirl have had many fans questioning the possibility of other DC-connected projects following suit. Amid outcries from fans of Batgirl, Michael Keaton, Brendan Fraser, and even Snyderverse fans who are always eager to picket Warner Bros., Peacemaker fans started asking James Gunn whether there was any possibility that his DC work was going to suffer amid the company's cost-cutting exercise. Ironically, considering the history that led James Gunn to work with DCEU characters, it seems that the director and his shows are the only ones who are "safe."
What seems like a lifetime ago, James Gunn was all set to start work on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 for Disney and Marvel Studios when some old Twitter posts led to him being unceremoniously sacked. By the time Disney backtracked on their firing, Gunn was already committed to directing The Suicide Squad for Warner Bros., which is why Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has taken so long to arrive. Now, during all the chaos at Warner Bros., it appears that Gunn is not worried at all about the second season of Peacemaker getting the ax. When asked if the show was safe, Gunn simply replied:
"Yes, guys, calm down."
That is a relief for fans of the small sub-universe Gunn is building inside the DCEU, which along with The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker, is set to include at least another unannounced project and be linked to the Amanda Waller series that is in development. At least that side of the franchise doesn't appear to be going anywhere.

Is Warner Bros. Still Planning on Rebooting The DCEU?
There have been rumors of a "soft-reboot" coming to the DCEU for a long time, and while it seems at times like Warner Bros. is heading in that direction, they have constantly denied any such intention. During San Diego Comic-Con, the entire focus of the Warner Bros. live-action DC panel was on Black Adam and Shazam! Fury of the Gods. Both of these movies have their small links to the wider DCEU, and once again, Warner Bros. seemed to be causing confusion by including a Justice League montage within the Shazam sequel while at the same time professing that they are not revisiting that particular DCEU set up in any way.
One thing clear from Dwayne Johnson's appearance at SDCC is that he believes that Black Adam is setting the tone for a new DCEU, and based on everything else that is happening, he could be right. While there is no way of telling exactly where the franchise will be heading beyond The Flash in 2023, with new additional entries like Wonder Woman 3 constantly being stuck in limbo, it has been made clear that some big changes are being made in regards to the DCEU and fans will be hoping that those changes bring some kind of consistency to the franchise before it ends up crashing down around itself.

Scenic Sprint
General Information & Rules
About the Coeur d'Alene Triathlon
The Coeur d'Alene Triathlon, Duathlon and Sprint is one of the most scenic races in the Pacific Northwest. This year marks our 39th anniversary of the race which will be held Saturday, August 12, 2023. We are also the USAT National Championship Race for the State of Idaho.
Athletes participating in our traditional Olympic distance (1.5K swim) will board a cruise ship and enter the water out in the bay and swim back to shore.
The "Sprint Distance Triathlon" has become a popular staple of our race and will take off from city beach one hour after the Olympic race begins. The Scenic Sprint consists of a 500-meter swim, a 13-mile bike ride, and a 3.1-mile (5K) run. The sprint course will have women and men-specific wave starts to give novice triathletes a sense of confidence and safety.
The bike courses follow Coeur d'Alene Lake Drive. For Olympic distance triathlon riders and Duathlon riders going the full 40K, the race leads to Mullan Trail Road for a challenging uphill course.
The run courses travel north along the North Idaho Centennial Trail and the Spokane River. There are two turn-around points along the Centennial Trail: the 5K turn-around is in front of the University of Idaho/LCSC Harbor Center, and the 10K turn-around is on the Centennial Trail under the Seltice Way overpass. The course ends at the finish line in Coeur d'Alene City Park at the Triathlon Village adjacent to Lake Coeur d'Alene and City Beach.
In 1984, Dave Daboll suggested to then Coeur d'Alene Chamber of Commerce Manager Sandy Emerson that a triathlon would be an excellent idea to help promote the area. The idea was brought before the Visitor and Convention Committee (now the Convention and Visitors Bureau) and the planning for the first race began that spring. This group included Sandy Emerson, Rick Hoisington, Mike Rasor, John House, Ken Koep, Jim Headly, and Wade Griffith. Rick Hoisington was the first race director.
Seventy-five individuals and twenty teams boarded the cruise boats Mish-An-Nock and Danceawana, at the City Dock on Saturday, August 14, 1984 and cruised to the starting line at Arrow Point, three miles across Lake Coeur d'Alene. Seventy-five shivering swimmers lined up on a sinking dock, ready to plunge into 62 degree water that morning. The one mile swim, an out and back course, was marked with white detergent bottles tied by a long rope anchored to the bottom of the lake.
39 Years and Counting!
Coeur d'Alene City Park and Beachfront, Idaho
The bike part of the race followed a 19 1/2 mile course back to Coeur d'Alene along Highway 97, down Beauty Bay hill, across Interstate 90 to the Blue Creek Road (Old US Highway 10). This section of the course was especially tricky as it included a mile long, downhill stretch of gravel road. It then followed Interstate 90 into Coeur d'Alene and to the transition point in the parking lot behind the Coeur d'Alene Mines Building at Fifth and Front.
The run portion was much like it is today: runners followed a five and one-half mile course around the base of Tubbs Hill, through the Sanders Beach area, back to North Idaho College, and then to the finish line at Fifth and Front Streets.
John Tindall of Coeur d'Alene, finished first with a time of 2:00:32. Cathy Chay, Pullman, WA, was second. They each received $300. Third place went to Allen Wright of Moscow, ID. Wayne Wilson, Spokane, WA, was sixth and Randy Haddock, Coeur d'Alene, was seventh. A major reason for the race's instant popularity was the area's beauty and the challenging course; hence, the theme, "The Scenic Challenge" was adopted.
ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THE SCENIC CHALLENGE?

James Bond 007 -Everything or Nothing- Collector's Edition Score
Composed by Randy Bugnitz / Ron Fair / Шон Каллери
Published by Electronic Arts
Release type Game Soundtrack - Promo / Enclosure
Format 1 DVD - 15 tracks
Release date November 17, 2003
While best known for portraying Jack Bauer on the 24 series, Sean Callery did find the time to depict another agent with the same initials in 2003, for his video game debut James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing. Those who pre-ordered the game received a bonus DVD featuring the 15 track soundtrack for the game, including the three versions of the vocal theme.
As with the digital release, the soundtrack includes a full-length rendition of the James Bond theme. Sean Callery hints at his electro-orchestral tendencies here, but largely stays faithful to the melodies of the original. He waits till the main gameplay sequences to really assert his identity. For example, on "To Arms", he combines the exuberant orchestrations and punchy brass typical of David Arnold, with various percussive elements and electronic distortions typical of his 24 scores. The result has an enormous impact in the game and serves as some of the series' most appealing music on a stand-alone basis too.
While Everything or Nothing didn't receive a widespread music release, Sean Callery clearly intended the music to stand on its own. From a functional perspective, "Silent Ascension" enhances the infiltration feel of the game's stages with its electro-orchestral ambient soundscaping. However, it is also quite satisfying on a stand-alone level, thanks to Callery's creative use of solo and tutti strings. "Kiss Kiss Fight" is another impressive fusion of orchestral and contemporary elements that brings genuine chaos and intensity to the action sequences. "Freefall" turns the volume up a few notches and proves to be a gigantic action cue.
While most of the tracks on the score are electro-orchestral fusions, there is still plenty of diversity within. For example, the fusion of "Tunisia" introduces various Spanish instruments and tonalities, culminating in a fantastic interlude at the 0:42 mark. It's a very entertaining depiction. "Egyptian Descent" further focuses on regional elements — this time Arabian instruments and vocals — but includes the hook of the James Bond theme as well. It comes together surprisingly well. A further highlight is "Restoration", a more cinematic entry that depicts the antagonist in a stereotypical but exciting way with Russian choir.
The vocal theme for the game, simply entitled "Everything or Nothing", combines a haunting vocal performance with an upbeat electro backing. While the lyrics are fairly silly, Mya's performance is an excellent one and the electronic stylings are well done. This track is actually featured in three different versions during the soundtrack. In addition to the main version, the team offers a sleaky jazz remix in line with the series' past scores and an electronic remix to close the soundtrack. Overall, a solid song that is both creative yet distinctively Bond.
On James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing, Sean Callery offered the combination of creative musical stylings and cutting-edge production values not shared by prior scores in the series. It is impressive how he manages to integrate his characteristic hybridised stylings into the score while still keeping the Bond feel alive. The vocal theme is also a major highlight.

'The Rise of Skywalker' Review – Pew Pew Pew Till Your Head Explodes
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker concludes the forty-plus year-long saga of the Skywalker family, and while it does provide closure, the journey there is mind-numbing.
Star Wars' big-bad Emperor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) has returned out of seemingly nowhere to cast his wicked ways onto the galaxy yet again in The Rise of Skywalker. Determined to stop his new onslaught, the last remaining Jedi, Rey (Daisy Ridley), and her trusty band of Resistance fighters, led by General Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher) and her top lieutenants Poe (Oscar Isaac), Finn (John Boyega), and Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo), along with their helpful droid friends C-3PO (Anthony Daniels), BB8 and R2D2 set out on a mission to end all missions and rid the galaxy of the evil Sith presence for good. In their way is Rey's nemesis, and current Sith overlord, Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), whose goal is to have Rey join him on the dark side, and together, sit on the throne held by the evil Emperor.
The film's story revolves around the search for Palpatine's hideout in what is a cat-and-mouse chase for clues to his destination for most of the film. Along the way, they'll visit new planets and find themselves in all sorts of mischief, and meet some new (mostly disposable) allies. Rey and Kylo will confront each other numerous times, with Kylo's will to bend Rey to the dark side his main motivation. They'll each face some pressing existential crises as they try to figure out their true place in the universe, and this time, there's less talking and more lightsabre fighting.
The relationship between Rey and Kylo has been the strongest story element of this new, modern Star Wars trilogy, which was significantly expanded upon in 2017's The Last Jedi, and again here. They are the polar opposites of the light and dark side of the force, and both deeply conflicted individuals. The tension between the two is at boiling point in The Rise of Skywalker, resulting in many a lightsabre duel to see who can one-up the other (Rey too is trying to convert Kylo to become good). The good vs evil trope is one that's always intriguing at the core level, and it often depends on how it's manifested in art that determines the audience's attachment to it. In the case of these two representatives, and considering we've followed their journey from two prior films, the dynamic works well and his handled with poise by director J.J. Abrams. We get emotionally invested in these characters, but only to a point, as we're not given enough time to really let the emotions be realized.
This is where The Rise of Skywalker suffers – dramatically. The film's pace is relentless right from the opening scene, never slowing down for long enough to allow the audience to absorb the information they've just been shown. It's not so much that the film's plot is difficult to follow, rather, we can't savor any of the awesome moments that are presented – there's no nuance to any of it. The characters in the film are in a rush to get to where they need to be, but surely that doesn't mean the audience has to be as well, does it? A slower pace and more time for character development would have gone a long way in giving the biggest franchise in film history the sendoff it deserved. Despite the frustrating pace, the film has a few redeeming qualities. It looks and sounds beautiful (thanks John Williams, these movies wouldn't have been the same without you), and the large (and small) action set pieces are superbly crafted. All of the scenes featuring the Emperor look like they've been ripped right out of a horror movie, which was a key highlight of the film.
RELATED: 'Encanto' Review - A Joyous Celebration of Family
Since A New Hope came out in 1977 and turned the pop-culture world on its head, Star Wars has been full of ups and downs. We've received some truly amazing Star Wars films and some less-than-desirable ones. The Rise of Skywalker should have been the greatest entry in the series, but sadly, it seems that fan backlash after The Last Jedi got the team at Disney paranoid, forcing them to go down the path of mediocrity with this one, too afraid to take any risks in case the fans weren't satisfied. The fans aren't that stupid though and can see through the flashy veil that's hiding what should have been a masterpiece. Leave your brain at the door before going into this one and enjoy it for what it is – a feast for the senses that's lacking a bit of soul.
When George Lucas originally laid out plans for twelve episodes, then reduced that number to nine episodes, he said that C-3PO and R2-D2 would be the only characters to appear in all nine. This will prove to be true, as Anakin Skywalker and Obi-wan Kenobi, the only other characters to appear in every movie of the original and prequel trilogies did not appear in the sequel trilogy. Anthony Daniels (C-3PO) will also become the only actor to appear in all nine movies.

Abstract Recently, the domestic constructions have continuously promoted in Taiwan, especially in transportation constructions. During each engineering construction process, selecting an efficient and suitable testing method to maintain construction quality is essential and also provides positive assistance to the construction progress. Therefore, finding a way to speed up the test process and to achieve the project within the time schedule has become an important research topic as well as the aim of this study. For instance, after the base grade has been backfilled and the plat load test has immediately carried out, the testing success rate is low. Herein, the DCP test is employed prior to the plate loading test. The statistic results revealed that the success rate has been drastically improved. Hence, with the DCP test prior to plate load test, the testing process of embankment filling of road construction will speed up and lead to time efficient and cost benefit. This study aimed at the analysis of the time spend and cost saving for DCP test and Plate loading test. The study results reveal that the DCP test is cheaper and less testing time than the plate load test. Also, combining the DCP and plate load test may increase the testing success rate from 20% to 90%. Finally, it suggests accepting the engineering construction standard to include the DCP test as one of the embankment filling test methods.

Eliminating the effects of mechanical noise in an open plan environment and increasing privacy in meeting areas.
Global events-led marketing and communications services business UBM occupied the new 240 Blackfriars Road building in January 2015. The Gensler-designed interior included an exposed concrete ceiling with baffling and chilled beam system.
Acoustic consultants Sandy Brown recommended the introduction of sound masking because of the low level mechanical noise noticeable throughout the open plan areas and, after a hard-fought procurement process, Acoustic Comfort were appointed by Swift as the preferred supplier. A key element to the selection criteria was the ability to tune the system with acute accuracy across the floors. Without this capability, the associated risk would have been high.
This is a landmark project for Acoustic Comfort, for a prestigious client in an iconic new building.

Collegium Marianum – dawne Collegium Marianum, obecnie Liceum Katolickie im. Jana Pawła II.

Historia
Uczelnie utworzono w 1836 r. jako szkołę katedralną, która miała wychowywać ministrantów i śpiewaków na potrzeby nowej (przeniesionej w 1824 r. z Chełmży) siedziby biskupiej w Pelplinie. Otwarcie pod nazwą "Szkoła Tumska i Śpiewacza" nastąpiło 6 kwietnia 1836 r. w budynku dawnej karczmy klasztornej, nadbudowanej w l. 1840–1841. Liczba uczniów rosła od 6 w 1836 r. do 128 w 1858 r. W 1864 r. szkoła została przekształcona w progimnazjum, i od tego czasu nosiła nazwę "Collegium Marianum". Na siedzibę szkoły wraz z internatem zaadaptowano jedno ze skrzydeł klasztoru pocysterskiego, które rozbudowano w l. 1858–1860. Była to wówczas jedyna na Pomorzu (w Prusach Zachodnich) szkoła, w której panowała prawdziwie polska atmosfera. Była to zasługa zarówno kadry profesorskiej, jak i uczniów, którzy pochodzili głównie z Kociewia, z ziemi chełmińskiej i lubawskiej, z Kaszub, Borów Tucholskich, Krajny, a także z Gdańska i z Warmii. Grono wychowawców, najczęściej duchownych, łączyło pracę dydaktyczną z naukową. Profesorami Collegium Marianum byli wówczas m.in. księża Juliusz Pobłocki, Józef Mazurowski, Ignacy Ograbiszewski, Ignacy Zieliński, Jakub Fankidejski, Jan Zieliński, Romuald Frydrychowicz i Stanisław Kujot.

Po odzyskaniu niepodległości przez Polskę, Collegium Marianum uzyskało uprawnienia państwowej szkoły średniej i w 1927 r. przekształciło się w "pełne" gimnazjum (pierwsza matura odbyła się 27 czerwca 1929). W 1934 r. zbudowano nowoczesną salę gimnastyczną. W 1939 r. szkoła została zamknięta przez okupanta, większość profesorów wymordowano, a w jej budynku umieszczono niemiecką szkołę policyjną.

Po II wojnie światowej, dzięki staraniom biskupa Andrzeja Wronki, 1 lutego 1946 r. reaktywowano szkołę jako "Prywatne Gimnazjum i Liceum Koedukacyjne Stolicy Biskupiej w Pelplinie". Od 1948 r. klasy szkolne przeniesiono do nowszego budynku na Okoniewie w Pelplinie. W 1951 r. szkołę tę upaństwowiono a jej budynek przejęło państwo. Tymczasem w historycznym gmachu zlokalizowano, powołane 1 kwietnia 1950 r., niższe seminarium duchowne "Collegium Marianum". Kształciło ono chłopców w zakresie gimnazjalnych klas VIII-XI. Decyzją władz komunistycznych 10 sierpnia 1961 r. szkoła ta została zamknięta, a następnie 5 grudnia 1964 r. budynek Collegium Marianum został odebrany właścicielom i przeznaczony na siedzibę zakładu dla dzieci upośledzonych umysłowo. Po wieloletnich zabiegach kurii diecezjalnej, 28 października 1988 r. przywrócono tytuł własności diecezji chełmińskiej. Po przeniesieniu podopiecznych w inne miejsca, budynek został zwrócony władzom diecezjalnym w 1993 r. (protokolarnie w dniu 1 września, jednak klucze zostały przekazane przez wojewodę gdańskiego Macieja Płażyńskiego w dniu 16 września).

W 1997 r. przystąpiono do odbudowy, a po jej zakończeniu, 2 września 2000 r. dokonano otwarcia reaktywowanego Collegium Marianum. 6 czerwca 2006 w 170-lecie szkoły biskup Jan Bernard Szlaga nadał jej imię Jana Pawła II.

Dnia 1 września 2008 r. dyrektorem szkoły został mianowany ks. Andrzej Szopiński. Od roku szkolnego 2013/2014 nowym dyrektorem został ks. Arkadiusz Ćwikliński. Od roku szkolnego 2018/2019 nowym dyrektorem został ks. dr Wiesław Szuca.

For his 2017 Summer Soleil collection, Tom Ford has repackaged and repromoted the coveted Fire Lust Skin Illuminator ($50 / 0.5 fl oz – ). Fire Lust first made its debut around the Summer of 2013 and was designated as a limited edition collector's item that went through a few repromotes over the past seasons before finally becoming permanent later on. The 2017 edition does not appear to be different formula or color-wise, however is housed in a smaller size rounded bottle (repackaged in the same size as his Shimmer Shots) and retails for $50 for 0.5 fl oz as opposed to the original which is $72 for 1.0 oz and is presented in a glass bottle instead.
Personally, my favorite method is to mix this in with foundation. Doing this gives the skin a beautiful and subtle luminous glow that looks like your own skin, but better and does not read shimmery not sparkly. It's worth noting that mixing this in with foundation does not affect performance or longevity of either one nor does it oxidize or distort your foundation shade.
Worn as an actual highlight over makeup it creates a dewy and glowy sheen that is super subtle mimicking a natural radiant complexion.
Worn underneath makeup as a base virtually does nothing unless you use sheer products for the entire look. But even then the glow is barely there, if at all. That being said, it does create a nice multi-dimensional depth when going in with sheer bronzers and blushes.
Overall this is a stunning and luxurious liquid highlighter. It's been about a solid three years since I played with Fire Lust and this time around I was reminded once again why I instantly fell in love with it in the first place. While I am all for a fierce highlight, during the Summer season I tend to gravitate more towards glowy yet subtle with a dewy background which I achieve through creams and liquids as opposed to powders. Fire Lust is a key player to have in your arsenal if you tend to do the same depending on the seasons. On my skin it lasted for well over eight hours whether that was as an actual spot highlight or mixed in with my foundation. As the day progresses it does get a bit more dewy due to the natural oils in the skin but never looks greasy. Vegas has been experiencing many days where we are nudging 90 for the high so far this month and even then it wore flawlessly. The dewiness factor remained about the same although took place much quicker versus in milder temperatures. The heat did not affect its longevity thus far although I have a faint suspicion it just might once we hit the high 100's – 120's.
Fire Lust has a nice hydrating feel that soothes the skin and a soft sweet scent that fades after a few minutes. Application is effortless and blends beautifully with either fingers or a brush. Product is buildable for more of a focused glow but not color as it is sheer. In its description it states that the "peach-pink shade flatters every skin tone", although I think that if you're on the darker side it may only show up as a soft glow as opposed to having any type of color payoff since it's so sheer. If I were to be at my most tan right now, I think it would virtually be colorless against my skin tone. If any of you babes have tried this, please chime in the notes with your skin tone and thoughts on how it worked for you.
The Tom Ford Skin Illuminator in Fire Lust is available at Sephora, Nordstrom and Tom Ford's site as well as his counters.

Running an online business could be a lot more challenging than setting up one in a physical location. The main challenge would be the competitive nature of the business, so you will need to come up with ways to stand out from the other online businesses of the same niche. Here are some tips that may help you with starting your online business.
This will be the most important part about running an online business. There are many things you will need to consider when creating a website, such as ease of use and whether you will be providing reliable IPECS support. By taking these into consideration, you should create a user-friendly website that leaves a good impression on the visitors that come across the website. You should also consider having a dedicated server for hosting the website, since you will need to make sure the site is running and does not crash, even if there is heavy traffic on the site. Focus on the content of the website as well since this is going to be the landing point where customers will decide whether they want to make the transaction.
The next thing you will need to do is to find ways to effectively market the website. One of the ways you can go about doing this would be to use social media. The main advantage of using social media to market the website would be that you wouldn't even have to spend much for it to be effective. The most popular social media website you can use would be Facebook. Creating a page for your business is free, but it is advisable that you pay for some advertising to help you get more visitors on your page.
Although the transactions will take place online, you will still need a location from where you can manage the business. This will only apply if you plan on setting up a large-scale business where you will need to have a few employees to run the business. When choosing the location make sure that it is well equipped with appropriate phone systems Noosa and with a good internet connection. If you are planning to use it as a storage point, then you will need to have proper security systems in place to prevent robberies and trespassing in the premises.
These three tips should help you with starting the business. Remember that starting the business may be the hardest part of it, as once your business is up and running, it will get a lot easier.

"A New Catechism for the St. Thomas Christians of India" 'Mar Toma Margam' is a book authored by Fr. Varghese Pathikulangara(http://pathikulangara.in/Biodata.htm) which has the objective of reintroducing the original 'Way of Life' of the Thomas Christians of India.
Often the Church is seen as a mega-organisation or as a juridical body. But the Church is above all a community of believers responding to the Lord's call by a particular mode of living.
From the beginning, the Church was a communion of diverse communities with diverse faith responses. The Christ-mystery is seen in diverse, though legitimate, ways and the following of Christ also consequently takes on various forms. Each is a community following a particular way of life – a particular spirituality. The Second Vatican Council views the Church as a communion of Individual Churches having their legitimate autonomy. They have their differing versions of liturgy, spirituality, theology and discipline.
Spirituality is the result of a faith version and finds its expression in liturgy. Discipline is only to protect a particular way of life. Therefore it could be said that an Individual Church is a community living a particular spirituality. The Church is basically a spiritual community.
One becomes a Christian by becoming a member of the community of believers - the Church. This means that our Christian identity is to be understood also in terms of the spirituality of the particular ecclesial community to which we belong. In fact catechesis is but spiritual formation suited to the Individual Church one belongs to. It is analogous to the formation in a religious congregation.
But, is our catechesis today designed for this formation? For many it is only the learning of a few universal truths, knowing a few facts in the history of the Church or understanding the general outline of worship. Such an exercise can hardly be called catechesis. It is seldom a preparation for genuine liturgical celebration or the basis of a real ecclesial spirituality.
We have to go back to real catechesis, which had always its roots in the worship and life of the Church. Our catechesis should become once again real formation for a particular mode of spirituality, which of course will be open to other traditions and forms of spirituality. In truth, the ethnic and cultural groups are closed in upon themselves not so a spiritual group. If this truth is properly understood, there would he a better appreciation of ecclesial catechesis.
Fr. Varghese Pathikulangara CMI, who is familiar to many through his several liturgical and ecclesial works, is now drawing our attention to this catechesis proper to each Individual Church. This book Mar Thomma Margam, is then a pioneering work, a thought provoking venture, besides being a practical guide. As a pioneer work, it may be shocking to some, imperfect to some others. Of course, Fr. Pathikulangara is ready to learn from our comments and creative suggestions. What he wants to impress upon our minds is the need for ecclesial and liturgical catechesis for the proper growth of our Syro- Malabar Church.
The Malayalam book Mar Thommayude Margam which was published in May 1988 was an inspiration to many in this field. The English edition is specially intended for the Syro-Malabarians in the Diaspora communities.
The appendix to the English edition will definitely help the Mar Thomma Nazranees to peep into their East Syriac or Chaldeo- Indian spiritual heritage.
As a pioneering venture, the book deserves the attention of all concerned. More than that, shifting ourselves from the path of mere doctrinal catechesis, we should begin to consider the ecclesial and liturgical catechesis as the normal catechesis of our Church. We should chart a new course, especially in our multi-ecclesial context. Only then would our Church become really alive in our times and in our hearts.

Last night I was all over the place. Losing every SNG. Getting out drawn but really getting into too many hands and situations when I did not have to. Poker was making me so sick to death I was really ready to quit already.
Tonight I refocused and had one rule: make 3rd place. I decided not to play the turbo format either. So how were my results? I finished 4-1 with 2 firsts and a third. The one I lost I think I was just getting tired of winning. heh. I went out with AK vs KK vs AQ.. which is not horrible but I had a stack where I did not need to gamble. Tonight I loved poker.
Going to stick with what I did tonight if possible and see how it goes. The swing between last night and tonight was -40 to +60. Crazy. Not sure if I will be able to keep the insanity under control but it's free money and for now I am having fun.
First cash out will come if I reach 200. It is a big IF.

Civil Society Advocates for International Legal Instrument for Peace
Urging heads of state to support the DPCW through heartfelt handwritten letters
On 14 March 2019, the 3rd Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) was held in Seoul, South Korea. This event, which urged for the implementation of an international legal instrument for peace, was hosted by HWPL. Over 30,000 people including political leaders, religious leaders, heads of international organizations and NGOs, and the media were in attendance.
During the first portion of the event, HWPL shared the current status of the DPCW's progress in regards to being submitted to the UN as a draft resolution. Following this presentation, the audience was given time to write their own peace letters urging for national support of the DPCW.
On the day of the event, HWPL also reported that the DPCW has now received state-level support from different nations such as Seychelles, Eswatini, and Comoros. In addition, on an international level, intergovernmental organizations such as the Central American Parliament, Pan-African Parliament, and International Centre for Black Sea-Baltic Studies and Consensus Practices are also showing their support for the DPCW by signing MOUs with HWPL.
The Peace Letter Campaign, which began with the youth, was also explained as it encourages all citizens to write handwritten letters in support of the DPCW to their heads of state. So, the letters written during the event will be sent to heads of state in 193 nations as a way to deliver the voices of all the people that came together and are shouting out for peace.
Chairwoman Hyun Sook Yoon of the International Women Peace Group (IWPG) stated, "As much as science has developed, so have the weapons of war, and they are threatening our lives in unimaginable ways". She also added, "this is why we need a new international legal instrument that will prevent the root cause of wars as well as cease existing wars to sustain peace."
Pravin Parekh, the President of the Confederation of Indian Bar emphasized that, "HWPL is able to move the civil society and instill a spirit of peace within everyone." He also added to his message, "Because peace cannot be achieved only by leaders, the DPCW brings the civil society together in cooperation. By doing so, the civil society is able to do their role as the peacemakers, and are able to spread a culture of peace."
In the 2nd half of the event, lectures were given on the topic of "Civil Society's Role for Peaceful Unification of the Korean Peninsula". The speakers emphasized the importance of the international community and civil society's cooperation in creating peace in the Korean Peninsula according to the principles outlined in the DPCW, and urged everyone to become messengers of peace and work together to achieve peace.
Chairman Man Hee Lee of HWPL re-emphasized the importance of advocacy by the citizens stating, "The reunification of Germany did not happen through political force, but through the power of its people. Some people say that military confrontation is the biggest obstacle in achieving peace and reunification. The DPCW clearly states that in order to achieve peace, we must stop using force. The DPCW contains principles that can guarantee peace in our era. If we urge our heads of state to support the DPCW, they will become protectors of peace. However, if they do not listen to the people's voice, they will become opposers of peace."
The DPCW, which was drafted by a group of international law experts, contains principles to achieve and sustain peace, such as the prohibition of the threat or use of force, development of friendly relations between states, and peaceful ways of conflict resolution. It also emphasizes international cooperation through the participation of the international community in encouraging religious dialogue and spreading a culture of peace.

Besides being a cool forum for Arcana Heart players, the homing cancel is one of the most important system mechanics in this game. By using your homing button (D) you can cancel most normals, Arcana moves, specials, and some supers/Arcana supers into homing. This will consume 1 bar from the Arcana Gauge. Whenever you homing cancel in a combo the untech prorate will decrease, giving less time to make valid combos and more time for the opponent to tech out.
As described, using a homing cancel will put your character into a homing animation and pursue your opponent right after an attack. Not only is this useful for combos, but mixups and blockstrings as well.
For combos, you generally cancel sweeps or launchers into homing to follow up with a combo. After a sweep you usually use a 6D homing cancel to quickly move forward and convert the hit into a full combo. After a launcher you can use a 5D homing cancel to follow them high into the air and add hits. When in the air you can use a 2D or 3D homing cancel to chase your opponent after a move that ground slams. While pressuring your opponent you can use homing cancels to keep yourself safe after blocked overhead attempts or moves with poor recovery to continue your pressure.
After a reversal attempt you can cancel into homing to reestablish a neutral position or combo off of it. Many reversals have long periods of recovery and you can be counter hit out of it. In order to avoid take huge amounts of unnecessary damage, always aim for your reversal to at least be blocked. That way you have a high chance of getting away unharmed. However, do remember that you cannot cancel into homing on a whiff.
Many projectiles from Arcanas can be be canceled into homing as soon as you use them. This ability can help you gain the upper-hand in neutral spacing. After using a projectile from an Arcana, you can use it as cover to approach your opponent.
