Simon rex prosthetic9/28/2023 ![]() The new collection is inspired by the Island of Misfit Toys from the classic animated film Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Other celebrities at the event included Leslie Odom Jr, Jon Batiste, Charles Melton and his new girlfriend Chase Sui Wonders, Amandla Stenberg, Imogen Poots, and Guardians of the Galaxy 3 star Will Poulter.Įlla Emhoff, King Princess, Gossip Girl's Evan Mock, Antoni Porowski, couple Iman Shumpert and Teyana Taylor, Simon Rex, Tommy Dorfman, and Tom Sturridge were also seen sitting front row for the presentation. The Stranger Things actor, who was joined by stars like Maisie Williams and Danai Gurira, passed off the bear to Licorice Pizza's Cooper Hoffman for another photo opp. He disrobed in “Eastern Promises” (2007) and “Captain Fantastic” (2016), and voters still invited him to put on a tux to the Oscars for both those films.David Harbour holds on tight to a suited up teddy bear while arriving at the Thom Browne Fall 2022 Fashion Show on Friday (April 29) in New York City. The one actor who seems to have walked this line? Viggo Mortensen. Society’s acceptance of unfamiliar imagery and themes have made many fearful of what art can “possibly influence upon youngsters” as what was given to the only X-rated best picture winner “Midnight Cowboy” (1969), which was later changed to “R” in 1971.īut, of course, it’s the studios’ job to sell to Oscars voters that any such nudity is in the name of art and not gratuitous. In 1990, NC-17 replaced it to prevent anyone under 17 from being admitted, regardless of parental accompaniment. ![]() In 1968, MPAA had the “X” rating to designate explicit and excessive violence and sexuality in films. But they receive an “R” rating when breasts and lady parts are displayed. Showing a penis in your film typically has been an express pass to a “no rating,” which means that United States exhibitors won’t show your feature. These issues can be traced back to the MPAA. The truth is, there’s no rhyme or reason for what will work with voters when it comes to nudity. Mark Wahlberg, who wore a prosthetic in “Boogie Nights” (1997), also didn’t feel any Academy love. That helped past nominees such as Edward Norton (“American History X”), but not Ben Affleck (“Gone Girl”). Directors and cinematographers have navigated various ways to shoot blink-and-you-miss-it nudity (even “The Full Monty,” with its four Oscars nominations in 1998, didn’t live up to its title). When it comes to actors showing it all, Hollywood has been a bit conservative. The latter drama picked up eight Oscar noms, but nothing for Keitel’s soaring work. He landed some of the best reviews for Abel Ferrara’s “Bad Lieutenant” (1992), which won him an Independent Spirit Award, and Jane Campion’s “The Piano” (1993). Harvey Keitel knows what it feels like to be overlooked by AMPAS all too well. ![]() At the Cannes Film Festival, where “Red Rocket” premiered in July, the actor declined to elaborate on whether it’s really him or wearing a prosthetic in the scene. Still, it includes an extended streaking scene with the 47-year-old running through the streets of Texas City, Texas. Simon Rex’s visceral work as a former porn star in A24’s “Red Rocket” is on the long list of best actor hopefuls.

Putin conference table9/27/2023 ![]() ![]() Russia says the 2002 agreement has now been violated, with Lithuania banning the flow of sanctioned goods across its territory. When those countries joined, the exclave became surrounded on three sides by EU territory. In 2002, the EU and Moscow reached an agreement on travel between Russia and Kaliningrad, ahead of Poland and Lithuania joining the European Union in 2004. It was renamed from the German Königsberg in 1946. Kaliningrad was captured by Soviet troops from Nazi Germany in April 1945 and then became part of Soviet territory as a result of the Potsdam Agreement. The corridor separates the Russian standalone region of Kaliningrad from Belarus and connects Polish and Lithuanian territory. More on the Suwałki corridor: This thin strip of land, also known as the Suwałki gap, is the only overland link between the Baltic states - NATO members Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania - and the rest of the European Union. Germany has pledged NATO would defend alliance member Poland in case of an attack. Putin also made a series of unsubstantiated allegations last week, accusing Poland of harboring plans to "directly intervene" in the war and "tear off" parts of Ukraine for itself, also claiming Warsaw has aspirations to annex parts of Belarus. Rising tensions: This is the latest example of regional tensions inflamed by Lukashenko welcoming Wagner troops into his country following their short-lived rebellion against Moscow.īelarus announced earlier in July that its forces will hold joint exercises with Wagner fighters near the border with Poland. ![]() "They will probably be disguised as Belarusian border guards and will help illegal immigrants to enter Polish territory, destabilize Poland, but they will also probably try to infiltrate Poland pretending to be illegal immigrants and this creates additional risks," he said. “No matter how the Russian authorities would like to turn a blind eye on this by saying they have intercepted everything … something does hit.” Now the war is affecting those who were not concerned,” the spokesman, Yurii Ihnat, said on Ukrainian television. “There’s always something flying in Russia, as well as in Moscow. Videos showed debris as well as emergency services at the scene.Ī spokesman for Ukraine’s Air Force said the latest drone attacks on Moscow were aimed at impacting Russians who, since the Kremlin invaded Ukraine in February 2022, felt the war was distant. The fifth and sixth floor of a 50-story building were damaged, and no casualties were reported, state news agency TASS reported. The Russian Defense Ministry said three drones were intercepted but a business and shopping development in the west of the capital was hit. Russia says Ukraine targeted Moscow with drones on Sunday, the latest in a series of attacks that have brought the Ukraine war to Russia’s capital. On critics: When asked by a journalist about the arrest of people in Russia who are critical of his leadership during the armed conflict with Ukraine, Putin replied: "It seems to me that he is living in his own universe," Cherevatyi said. When asked for comment by CNN on the Russian leader's claims, Serhii Cherevatyi, the deputy commander of the Ukraine military's Eastern Group for Strategic Communications, joked that "if we really had so much (material), we'd already be in Moscow. Ukraine's purported losses: Putin also said on Saturday that Ukrainian forces lost 415 of its tanks and 1,300 armored vehicles since June 4. Zelensky said allowing any negotiations while another nation's military is occupying Ukraine would only "freeze" the war, pain and suffering caused by Putin's invasion. Key context: This week at a summit with African governments, Putin said he was considering a peace initiative proposed by the leaders and blamed Kyiv for not coming to the table.īut Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has ruled out any peace negotiations with Russia until Moscow’s troops withdraw from his country’s territory, characterizing the conflict as an unprovoked war of aggression launched by Putin. "We cannot declare a ceasefire when we are attacked." ![]() The Ukrainian army is on the offensive, it is on the attack, on what is called a large-scale strategic offensive," Putin said. Tomato early blight home remedy9/27/2023 ![]() Tomato plants are used to growing in dry climates, so they are unusually sensitive to water on their leaves, which makes them more prone to fungal infections than many other crops. The Alternaria spores require a lot of moisture to germinate. When you remove the weeds and volunteer plants, make sure you destroy them – do not place on your compost pile. ![]() This is true for edible crops such as potatoes, as well as hairy nightshade, black nightshade, and horse nettle, so be vigilant and keep these weeds out of your garden. These can pass the infection on to your tomato plants. Plants in the same family as tomatoes (solanaceous plants, or nightshades), and volunteer tomato plants can also serve as hosts for Alternaria species. Purge Nightshades and Volunteer Tomato Plants This applies to any crops in the nightshade family as well, such as eggplant, which can also be infected by the fungus. This is true even if you didn’t see any symptoms of early blight, since the pathogen can start building up without your knowledge. Wait at least two years before planting in the same location again, since the spores can persist in the soil and any partially decomposed plants for a year to follow. However, if tomatoes are the crop in question, restrain yourself! You increase the chance of developing an early blight infection if you grow tomato plants in the same place in consecutive years. When you harvest a bumper crop one year, it is so tempting to plant in the same spot the following season. These are the most effective ways to prevent it from taking hold in your garden: Rotate Your Crops Photo by Dwight Sipler, Wikimedia Commons, via CC BY-SA.

Spanish numbers 10 209/27/2023 The word for 100 is "cien", but when combining this with other numbers such as 105 you need to use "ciento" - "ciento cinco" (also note that the "y" is not used to join the words to make numbers in the hundreds.Ĭommas and full stops to break up numbers: In English it is normal to split every 3 digits of a whole number with a comma (3,478 for example), and mark the decimal point with a full stop (12.45 for example). If the noun is masculine then the form "un" is used. "Un amigo" can mean "a friend" or "one friend" depending on the context. This is because the word for "a" and "one" are the same in Spanish. ¿Un, uno o una? - The number "one" in Spanish is the only number that has to agree with the noun it refers to. For example:ģ8 - treinta y ocho - literally "thirty and eight".Ģ49 - doscientos cuarenta y nueve -literally "two hundreds forty and nine".ġ567 - mil quinientos sesenta y siete - literally "thousand five hundred sixty and seven".Īlthough the numbers in the 20s are pronounced similarly to the higher numbers, they are written slightly differently - "veintiuno, veintidos" (all one word) but "treinta y uno, treinta y dos, cuarenta y uno, cuarenta y dos", etc. Numbers are built up from the units listed above the same way that they are in English. Note also that the numbers from 200 to 900 have to agree with the noun they refer to: "ochocientos libros" "ochocientas niñas" Note that 500 is very irregular and 700 and 900 are slightly irregular.

Home budget printable9/26/2023 ![]() Subtract the amounts from the checking account register page.I update my budget sheet with the “cash” to each category.But when I do, instead of using the little ledger that comes with a box of printed checks, I keep track with a full page checking ledger in my notebook along with my budget sheet. Because I pay my bills online, I hardly ever need to write a check. Our check is automatically deposited straight to our checking account. ![]() To keep up with everything, I like to “balance” or reconcile my checking account and my budget ledger weekly, but at the very least, be sure and do it every paycheck.įor myself, I keep the printable budget ledger in a 3 ring binder with my checking ledger. When you’re first starting out with this way of budgeting, if you can, it’s good to have some cushion money in the account you pay your bills from because, the timing may be off from when you start budgeting this way to when a bill is due, and you may not have enough money built up in that category to pay the bill in full yet. So if I wanted I could subtract the extra from the electric category to make a zero balance in cable, or if I know that sometimes my cable bill is lower than $100, I could just wait till it evens out, if there’s a cushion of cash in the account. The cable bill was a little higher than estimated. You can see in the example below that after the mortgage was paid for the month, there was $2 left in that category till the next paycheck. Whether you use a debit card, checks, or online bill pay, when you buy or pay something, you will subtract it from the matching category on your budget sheet and your checking account. That way when they’re due, the money is set aside in your account and available. Since theoretically you get paid 2 times a month, you would divide that by 2, which means you assign $50 out of each paycheck to go towards taxes. If the mortgage is $1000 a month, and you get paid twice a month, you would designate $500 out of each paycheck for that bill.įor other bills like real estate taxes that may be due twice a year, you can take the amount you would pay every 6 months, in our example $600, and divide that by 6 which would be $100 a month. So for each monthly bill, you would divide the amount needed by 2, and take that amount out of each of the 2 monthly paychecks. On the example, the net pay for one out of two paychecks a month is: $1600 ($3200 for the whole month).
