![]() ![]() He knows how to make entertaining films, and he rarely misses. For every film like Travelers and The Fighter, we see films like this, The Other Guys or sadly, Max Payne. Wahlberg puts his name on everything he does. Famed screenwriter / director John Sayles used to moonlight under a pseudonym in moneymaking movie ventures to pay for the films that he really wanted to make. The film needed more of the element provided by O’Hara’s Church to give it some heft, but overall, it is a passable evening’s entertainment.Īs for Wahlberg, what is to say, other than this is one of those movies he makes to pay for the other ones. Wahlberg’s on board staff is eclectic enough to be entertaining, even if JK Simmon’s Captain Camp is played about 40 points below his real IQ. She gives the aggrieved woman role a good run, until she get’s wrapped in improbability. It’s nice to see Beckinsdale in something other than a vampire/werewolf flick. The movie has the feeling of a mini-epic, only without the grandiosity of The Godfather or the depths of The Departed. If you’ve seen Foster and Ribisi in any other film, you have seen them here. ![]() There is never a point in the story where there is any doubt who will succeed and who will fail. ![]() Many more people die, things get stowed, muscles flexed, insults tossed and obvious things missed. This leads to using a bunch of money that they seemingly did not have, going on a ship and heading to Panama to round-up some illegal stuff. The kid is the brother-in-law of Chris Farraday (Wahlberg), who is thrust into the job of saving the day by alternately being threatened, threatening and paying back a sleazeball named Briggs (Ribisi, of course). The movie starts off with a kid (Jones) getting in too deep. ![]() At least, with Wahlberg in control, we have that moment where the protagonist admits that he is enjoying the ride. The old crook being forced into one last heist.

Screenplay Aaron Guzikowski, based on Reykjavík-Rotterdam by Arnaldur Indriðason and Óskar Jónasson Enjoy.Starring Mark Wahlberg, Ben Foster, Kate Beckinsdale, Giovinni Ribisi, Caleb Landry Jones, Lukas Haas, JK Simmons, David O’Hara, Diego Luna, Robert Wahlberg, William Lucking Without further ado, here’s the great new clip. Contraband will be hitting our screens on 16th March next year, which is a date that can’t come fast enough for me. This new clip sees Wahlberg talking to his boss, Ribisi, and things don’t look to be going quite his way, with the possibility of a $700k debt looming over his head – obviously not a nice situation to be in. Things quickly fall apart and with only hours to reach the cash, Chris must use his rusty skills to successfully navigate a treacherous criminal network of brutal drug lords, cops and hit men before his wife, Kate (Beckinsale), and sons become their target.”ĭirector Baltasar Kormákur is already set to re-team with Wahlberg on 2 Guns, which I think it’s a great indication that they’ve had an awesome time filming Contraband, which in turn is a great indication that we’ll have an awesome time watching it. Chris is a legendary smuggler and quickly assembles a crew with the help of his best friend, Sebastian (Foster), to head to Panama and return with millions in counterfeit bills. “Chris Farraday (Wahlberg) long ago abandoned his life of crime, but after his brother-in-law, Andy (Caleb Landry Jones), botches a drug deal for his ruthless boss, Tim Briggs (Ribisi), Chris is forced back into doing what he does best – running contraband – to settle Andy’s debt. We’ve now got a brilliant new clip to share with you from the film, courtesy of Fandango, which should nicely whet your appetite and get you as excited to see this as I am, if you aren’t already. Simmons, and Lukas Haas, with Wahlberg’s brother, Robert Wahlberg, also taking a smaller role. Mark Wahlberg stars in the lead – therefore guaranteeing its brilliance I’m a big Wahlberg fan – alongside the likes of the excellent Ben Foster, Giovanni Ribisi, Kate Beckinsale, J.K. Contraband is shaping up to be one of the best action crime dramas of next year, and we’ve already been seeing some great things from it, in the form of the first official trailer back in September, followed up by the first and second posters for the film, and most recently the second trailer just over a month ago. ![]()

But the type of soil you use can impact plant development. Nutrient-rich SoilĮven people who don’t garden know that soil, seeds or cuttings, and water are really all you need to grow a plant. I like to think of this process as giving your plant a chic haircut. This tool can take large or small cuttings, and assures a healthier cut than a plain ol’ pair of house scissors. This is where a multi-snip tool comes in handy. For example, if you’re propagating a pothos, you should cut right under a root node that has at least four leaves before trimming it and placing the stem in some water to grow new roots. If you’re taking plant cuttings, it’s important to get a healthy cut. These heated lights are especially useful in the winter when the sun just doesn’t shine as often but your plants still need some vitamin D. Just be sure to monitor how long your plants are under the light (there is usually a timer feature) because you don’t want them to get too much sun and “ sunburn.” You can make your own fixture over your plants to hang the lights, or buy a stand online for easier assembly. A growth light is essential to plant propagation, as it can be difficult to either give plants sufficient sunlight from the windowsill, or make sure they aren’t getting too much light. Here are a few eye-pleasing, minimalistic propagating systems for plant cuttings: Using a blue light panel also allows the plant trimmings to grow even faster.īut if you’re planning to propagate a plant that requires being placed in water first, a simple water cup or mason jar will suffice. GrowAce created a “clone and rooting” kit that allows customers to sanitize clippings, dip them into MX Clone Gel to stimulate new growth, and place it under the Root Radiance heating map. With many advancements in plant propagation, you can buy a kit that is self-watering and self-fertilizing to make the process even easier. You can find affordable kits online or even buy a plastic bin as a home for your trimmings or seeds. This may seem obvious, but we should probably start with a spot to propagate your plants. Here are a few tools and gadgets I recommend for beginning to propagate. ![]() It’s definitely a process, but if you have a little extra time and patience and want to spend less money on house plants - plants can get really expensive really fast - plant propagation may be for you. If you have gardened before, you know how exciting it is to finally see results - whether it be a tiny sprout pushing through soil, or roots from a plant-cutting turning translucent in water. Plant propagation is the process of growing new plants from varying sources, including seeds and cuttings. This prompted me to begin researching plant propagation - at, unsurprisingly, the wee-hours of the night - and the best at-home, affordable products to start my new pandemic hobby. Growing my own tomatoes, cucumbers, and chili peppers, I added watering and weed picking to my daily routine - eventually learning how to grow new plants from the ones I already had.Īs I watched my garden blossom and noticed others on my Instagram feed sharing TikToks about regrowing green onions and celery in cups of water, I began to wonder what I could do with my own houseplants. But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, my morning routine - which used to be a comforting “sameness” before leaving home for work or school or brunch - grew old and repetitive as I began working and spending most of my time at home. My morning routine has been the same for years: Hop in the shower, make a cup of coffee, water my plants, and scarf down breakfast while reading the daily news online.

There are only ten, and you’ll want to get a sense for what each one does before jumping into a race. While you’re there, look over the icons for the different pick-ups. I’ll briefly explain the modes from the lobby, but the guide you can access from the main screen features a description in the “Race Types” section. Eliminator is scored based on damage and kills against other ships and Zone Battle is a trippy cyberrific risk/reward calculation about who can build up the most speed while dropping barricades on the field to mess up the other races. We’ll play some regular races on the more forgiving speed classes, but we’ll also try Fury’s Eliminator and Zone Battle modes. But there are Mario Kart style power-ups that help level the playing field. ![]() In multiplayer, it basically comes down to who knows the track best. Wipeout in general, and HD’s Fury add-on in specific, is some of the most thrilling sexysleek sci-fi combat racing you will ever do. You did get your copy of Wipeout HD and the Fury add-on, didn’t you? This week, we’re revisiting a Playstation 3 exclusive that was made available free as part of Sony’s apology for the Playstation Network being closed for so long. We're promised a preview version of the game any day now, so we'll bring you more on Wipeout HD Fury shortly.Thanks to our continuing grant from the National Foundation for the Preservation of Old Videogames, our “Help Wanted” program is now in its second week. The final piece of the puzzle is new music, which Sony promises will be darker and moodier than in the original game. Detonator mode also features different ships, which are smaller and more agile than the standard hover units. If you miss any mines, they reappear on the next lap, but if you can keep hitting targets, you can build up more points. You have to use your cannons to shoot down the mines that are dotted around the track. Detonator is another Zone variant and is playable only in single-player. Zone Battle is slightly confusing to explain-it's effectively a multiplayer version of the Zone mode, but when you boost forward, you leave a devastating barrier for anyone who's floating right behind you. It's a very cool touch that should prove to be exciting online. The HUD now shows you the position of the closest enemies behind you, allowing you to unleash your weapons before turning around and zooming away. ![]() Eliminator will be familiar to anyone who has played the PSP Wipeout games before, but you are now able to flip your ship around by pressing the L1 button. The pack also contains three new game modes: Eliminator, Zone Battle, and Detonator. They've all been seen in other Wipeout games before, but Sony claims that building new tracks would take them "much longer" than the nine months it has taken to work on Fury. They are called Tech De Ra, Modesto Heights, The Amphiseum, and Talon’s Junction. The biggest changes come with the four new tracks, which are playable in reverse and have zone variants. Once it's installed, though, you'll notice that the menu system has been given a dark and moody overhaul, although you can revert to the original if you prefer. ![]() Wipeout HD Fury is an expansion pack, so you'll need to own the original game to play it. Thankfully, a brand-new expansion is set to be released any time now according to Sony, and the publisher had advance builds of Wipeout HD Fury at its E3 09 booth. We really love the original Wipeout HD here at GameSpot, and even now we're frequently taking the game online to play the masses. ![]() ![]() ![]() After installing the preview of the ARM64 Windows 10, you could run 32-bit Intel and ARM apps 64-bit ARM apps but not 64-bit Intel apps. When the preview version of what became Parallels 17 was released last spring, it brought both promise and frustration. I tried to get id Software’s “Doom Eternal” to run on both Intel and M1 systems, and it crashed on startup both times. You’re better off with 2D games, and many games that require additional graphics software just won’t run. Microsoft has suspended that for now, but Parallels includes a virtual TPM 2.0 chip if necessary.Īnd while no serious gamer is going to consider using Parallels to run state-of-the-art titles, this version does include an improved graphics driver and better performance for Microsoft’s DirectX. It runs the Windows 11 Preview just as well as Windows 10, and those who set up that virtual machine won’t have to worry about the need for a TPM 2.0 chip that was originally part of the requirements. ![]() The Intel version can run literally dozens of different virtual machines – 10 versions of Windows and Windows Server, as well as Boot Camp 11 versions of macOS, including the upcoming macOS 12 Montery and eight distros of Linux officially, though a Parallels spokesperson told me that it will run four more unofficially. Even Windows 10 and 11 Preview boot times are snappy, certainly faster than booting up a real Windows PC. From a cold start, in which the app must launch as well as the virtual machine, it’s about double that to resume, but that’s still pretty impressive. ![]() On my Intel iMac, Parallels 17 gets very close to instantaneous suspend and resume times, with three seconds to suspend and just two seconds to resume, when Parallels is running. It works so well, you can even suspend the guest operating system while it’s doing something as critical as applying a software update without doing harm. When they need to work on it again, they just resume it, and the virtual machine wakes up in the same state as before. This takes the current state of the machine running in the host Mac’s memory and saves it to disk (or an SSD). One of the things many Parallel users do frequently is suspend a virtual machine, rather than shutting it down, when they are no longer using it. That’s true on the Intel side for Parallels 17, though I’d have to say that version 16 was pretty damned zippy. With each annual release, Parallels is touted as being faster than the previous year’s version. ![]() ![]() ![]() RTDs are in fact one of the fastest growing alcohol categories.Īs the on-going Covid-19 situation continues to affect bars and restaurants, people are drinking at home more, and they are looking for lighter, easy to drink options. Marjorie was a dancer at the hotel who was allegedly allergic to certain types of liquor but not tequila, prompting the bartender to create a drink she could enjoy.īringing its margarita wine cocktails to the RTD market makes it easier for all legal-drinking-age (LDA) consumers to enjoy them. While there are varying accounts of the margarita’s origin, according to the company’s website, the popular cocktail was created in 1938 and named for Marjorie King. The RTD brand gets its name from Tijuana’s legendary Rancho La Gloria Hotel. Each pop contains 100 calories and six percent ABV. Three of Rancho’s most popular flavors – Lime, Strawberry, and Mango – also come in a freeze and eat popsicle. They can be enjoyed on the rocks, straight out of the bottle, or blended to make a frozen margarita. The margarita wine comes in the same fruity flavors as the canned cocktails plus Paloma, which is made with Texas ruby red grapefruit. In addition to the new canned cocktails, Rancho La Gloria produces 750 ml bottled RTD margaritas with a higher ABV at 13.9 percent ABV. Rancho La Gloria does not use any artificial ingredients in its cocktails. Rancho La Gloria uses only 100% Blue Weber Agave, which is harvested for USDA certified Organic Blue Agave nectar, and fermented into agave wine.” It is made from fermented agave sap, while tequila is made instead through a distillation process.Īccording to the company’s website, “Agave Wine provides an authentic tequila experience because, like tequila, it comes from the Agave plant. ![]() While similar in taste to tequila, agave wine is lower in alcohol. Rancho La Gloria’s take on the classic cocktail uses agave wine instead of traditional tequila. ![]() Rancho La Gloria’s sparkling cocktails come in Strawberry, Mango, Watermelon, Peach, and Classic Lime. The sparkling margaritas contain 9.9 percent ABV and come in 250 ml cans. The carbonated cocktails are made with one hundred percent de agave wine. Rancho La Gloria is introducing new ready-to-drink (RTD) canned margaritas. One of the US’s most popular cocktails is about to get a lot more convenient and easier to drink. ![]() ![]() ![]() You may choose to control targeted advertising within our applications by using your mobile device settings (for example, by re-setting your device’s advertising identifier and/or opting out of interest based ads).

After good positioning just SR spam.īecause theese eras are difficult in general and especially bosses, we skip them. If you doing this route like me, you will be fine, otherwise confirm that highest initiative difference is less than 10 (or you might not be able to get 2 turns). Prep order - look for 2 SSes with lowest starting initiative and place them on the 1st and last place in order. Sac remaining BMS to SSes to maximise dmg and equip dmg memories on 'Shadow Round'.

Of course, Othercide’s rogue-lite approach that sends you back to square one with a fresh squad means it’ll need some good variety in these early missions to keep it from becoming repetitive. But once I do, I’ll unlock a Remembrance that makes all my Daughters start at level 4, which will let me use advanced attacks in the first few missions. The Surgeon is a tricky nut to crack, since my level 3 and 4 characters have had trouble swatting his minions as quickly as he summons them, and you can’t damage him until they’re all dead. The first boss fight ended my first couple of runs. And when their bigger, beefier brothers show up it’s time to panic a little.Īssuming you survive, at the end of each mission you’re rewarded with some currency that can be used to create new Daughters, among other things, and Memories, which are effectively gems that can be slotted into individual characters’ abilities to increase damage or boost other effects. Othercide’s monster design is very creepy, too, especially these impish scavenger creatures who come at you in groups. Eventually your Soulslinger wastes away… unless you feed someone to her. That means that abilities like the overwatch-style interrupt shot from the Soulslinger comes with a major cost: while it can spare your team from taking a high-damage hit from an enemy, you have to spend 40 hitpoints to use it, and that can add up with such a useful ability. When one of your Daughters is wounded, must sacrifice another team member’s life to restore them. Real mortal tension is created by the fact that there’s only one way to heal anybody, and you won’t like it. For instance, I once had a Blademaster with bonus armor and dodge stats from Traits who can serve as much more of a DPS-tank hybrid than the standard glass cannon role. The latter can grant strengths and weaknesses that lend themselves to different roles. Three isn’t a lot of distinct classes, but Lightbulb Crew hopes to differentiate within those with both XCOM-like binary skill choices at each level-up and random Traits that you earn over time. Othercide's monster design is very creepy â especially these impish scavengers who come at you in groups.The three character classes you build your (typically) three-person squad from are the close-up damage-dealing Blademaster, the tanky Shieldbearer, and the gun-toting ranged support Soulslinger. That’s a major tactical consideration that forces you to think ahead about when you can afford to extend yourself and when you can’t. On top of that, if you use more than 50% of a character’s 100 action points in a turn it means that Daughter has overexerted herself and requires twice as long on the timeline before she can move again. ![]() And if you don’t like that an enemy character gets to move before yours and you can’t quite kill them outright, certain moves, such as a shield slam, can stun them and knock them back a ways, or certain buffs can skip a friendly character ahead in line. It shows you who will move next based on each character’s initiative stat, which means there are no surprises and no guesswork in the tactical puzzles each level presents you with. Unlike XCOM or other rigidly ordered “I go, you go” turn-based games, Othercide’s turns are governed by the timeline at the bottom of the screen. ![]() ![]() ![]() Of important note, Garrison is also a town of artists. There are especially a lot of people living in Garrison who work in management occupations (16.21%), teaching (11.21%), and healthcare (9.61%). Overall, Garrison is a town of professionals, managers, and sales and office workers. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Garrison are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs.
