Paul Mccartney Pirates 5 poster – CWEB.com

The rumour about Paul McCartney being in the new “Pirates…” movie is true 🙂

While there’s no official word yet whether McCartney’s role is merely a cameo or if he plays a larger part in the story of the franchise’s fifth outing, according to IMDb he’s credited as “Jail Guard 2.”  Can’t wait to see that movie! ❤️❤️❤️

Apple inc lattice data acquisition – CWEB.com

We have learned that Apple has acquired artificial intelligence startup Lattice Data for $200 million.

The next iPhone’s most mind-blowing features won’t be the 3D sensor or the new OLED screen. It’ll be how good the AI is. This is at least the third AI startup I’ve seen Apple buy and I probably only know about 1/4 of the acquisitions that Apple has actually done.

Dark data? New term we all are gonna learn soon.

Paris Can Wait Movie Review (9/10) – CWEB.com

by Tony Medley

Runtime 92 minutes

OK for children.

For an 81 year old writer/director/producer, Eleanor Coppola, this is an amazing achievement. Even with fine performances by Diane Lane and Arnaud Viard and a mercifully brief cameo by Alec Baldwin, the cinematography, locations, and memorable recipes steal the show.

The film is the somewhat autobiographical story of Coppola about an incident that occurred when she was in her mid-70s. The stretch is that Coppola is a long way from Diane Lane, who plays her in this film. Lane, at 52, is more beautiful than most of the ingénues who populate Hollywood today and will never be confused with a 73-year-old woman. But this is a movie and it needs a woman a man will yearn for.

Anne (Lane) is married to Michael (Baldwin), an actor who must travel from the French Riviera to Budapest for a film. Anne isn’t feeling well and tells him she will meet him in Paris. Jacques (Amaud Viard), a modern day Maurice Chevalier, offers to drive her. Along the way he treats her to a gorgeous tour of France, all the while subtly trying to seduce her. We see terrific scenes of France, wonderful meals to which he introduces her, incredible locales, wonderful acting, enticingly slow pace, and delicious dialogue reminiscent of My Dinner with Andre (1981). This is a wonderful film for everybody.

Like a fine wine, this ages well. I originally gave it a rating of 8/10, but the more I think about it, the better I like it.

Snapchat Stock Decline — CWEB.com

Snapchat stock decline — CWEB.com
 
Today Snap Chat was down 25% in after-hours following the Huge $2.2 billion loss in first post-IPO quarter.
 
If it’s still down 25% when it opens tomorrow, you will have to seriously consider taking a bite to another minus 45% down.
 
Snap may have had a successful IPO, but that was pretty much wiped out after it reported its first-quarter earnings – where it completely whiffed on what Wall Street was expecting.

Leonardo Dicaprio Vaquita Porpoise Enrique Nieto  – CWEB.com

Hollywood celebrity and activist  Leonardo DiCaprio used his star power to issue a plea on Twitter with the World Wildlife Fund to save the world’s rarest porpoise from extinction. And it appears Mexico’s president was listening. Enrique Peña Nieto responded on Thursday to the actor’s missive about the vaquita ― a critically endangered mammal that only lives in a small region in the Gulf of California.

 

 

BBC Cameraman Jeremy Corbyn – CWEB.com

BBC Cameraman Jeremy Corbyn  – CWEB.com

Is it true that the car ran over the cameraman’s foot? Yes. However, was the cameraman walking toward a MOVING vehicle and not watching where he placed his foot? That’s also true. And then, note that they don’t claim this was Jeremy Corbyn’s face in reaction to the event, but we are meant to think it was. It may even have been taken after the cameraman was hit, but we only have the captioner’s word that this was a reaction shot. Without further context, it’s impossible to know.

This is why people have lost faith in the corporate media. At best, this was an unfortunate, though preventable, accident. At worst, it was an intentional fall. Either way, the media is going to play it up for clicks and bury the real news in the last two paragraphs.

King Arthur Legend of the Sword Movie Review (2/10) – CWEB.com

King Arthur  Legend of the Sword Movie Review (2/10) – CWEB.com

by Tony Medley

Runtime 128 minutes.

Not for children.

Thomas Malory, who first published his Le Morte D’Arthur in 1485 bringing together the French legends from the 14th century that comprise the story, would not recognize this fantasy that more resembles fantasies like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings than the Arthurian legend.

Don’t get me wrong; the story of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table and Guinevere and Lancelot is pure fantasy. There’s no evidence anywhere that people like this ever existed in England or anywhere else. But what this new film does is tell a totally different story about Arthur (Charlie Hunnam) than that to which we have been accustomed, a new prequel if you will.

Writer-director Guy Ritchie doesn’t come to this game of putting his own spin on hallowed literature as a virgin. He did the same thing with Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and I loathed each of those films, almost as much as I loathed this one (incidentally, Jude Law was an accomplice in the Holmes butcheries and he’s here in this one, too, as the evil Vortigen). The reason a legend like that of King Arthur has lasted for 700 years is that it’s a rollicking good story that has appealed to millions of people across 21 generations. When you tinker with that, you had better have something good.

Well, Ritchie doesn’t have something good here. The new take on Arthur, that he is a street ruffian, raised in a brothel, and living on the streets by his wits, is interesting and might have worked. Because, let’s face it, Malory and his legends do not really provide any clue as to how the person of King Arthur came about, at least none that I remember. So this story is just as good as any. Since there’s no romance here (the legend of King Arthur is first and foremost a romance!), they apparently cast Hunnan, who is totally ripped, so the women in the audience will have something to look at.

But what fouls it up is the videogame-like appearance of animals that never existed, along with unbelievably absurd fight and battle scenes. These have become so de rigueur and commonplace in action films that there’s no tension in them and they are actually soporific if not comical. But they do apparently appeal to the young naïve male adult mentality of today.

It is not just the story and the silly fight scenes that don’t work. Right at the beginning there is some dialogue with quick cuts from one character to another, each dropping one-liners that are supposed to be witty. Not! They’re just enormously annoying.

From a dismal start, it doesn’t improve and it’s easy to see why this film has taken so long to hit the theaters, as it’s rumored that the original cut of well over 2 1/2 hours has been tinkered with for more than a year, and finally trimmed to this, which is still so jumbled and incoherent that it’s little more than regurgitated nonsense that should appeal solely to teenaged males.

DANGER ALERT: FDA WARNS ABOUT TEMPORARY TATOOS

Temporary tattoos known as “decal” tattoos can potentially be harmful. The dyes used in applications known as henna and black henna are used to create the designs. Tattoos are drawn anywhere on the body and can last up to two weeks, Children and teenagers also get these temporary tattoos in increasing numbers, they are not just for adults.

Concerning Applications of Tattoos

The application to place a henna tattoo varies. Some have a removable backing that adheres to the skin with moisture, usually adding water to it, and then applying it to the skin.  Decal tattoos will adhere to the skin. Some companies sell the decals and state that they can be made with any inkjet, or laser printers ink and then applied to the skin. That  sounds like a warning sign to be aware of, especially if you child is ordering from a company like this. Printer ink has a lot of chemicals in it and is not an FDA- approved cosmetic.  One such company that sells this is  “Decalpaper”  https://www.decalpaper.com/category-s/8.htm

Allergic Reaction Warnings

An adhesive tattoo may create a partial barrier between the skin and the image dye. Dyes used that are not approved by the FDA for cosmetic uses   are a major concern. There could be an alarming allergic reaction, as  henna dyes are not approved for cosmetic use under FDA regulations.

Since henna is naturally an orangey brown, other dyes can be infused with it to make other colors. These colors are known as black and blue henna.   Black and blue henna contains PPD (p-Phenylenediamine), and it permitted for use as a hair dye, but not for skin application.

The PPD dyes will show an immediate color on the skin that is more deep and rich in hue. The henna dyes usually take time to deepen, about 2- 4 days. Both will last 2-6 weeks depending on washing methods.

Henna dyes may not cause as much of an allergic reaction as PPD dyes.  In small children it can cause a hemolytic seizure event, if the child has red blood cell enzyme deficiency. If the PPD dye causes an allergic reaction, the skin has the possibility of oozing sores and the potential to leave scars on the skin. If this occurs, seek immediate attention to your doctor or emergency room.

Labeling Concerns:

Under the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act (FPLA), all ingredients on the labels of these products sold to consumers must be visible but is not required if a salon professional is performing  the application. County fairs and street vendors offering these applications do not have to comply with the labeling of ingredients. Many vendors are not aware of the harmful ingredients and allergic reactions that may occur with the tattoos they are applying on one’s skin.

People getting permanent lip, eyebrow and eyeliner tattoos should address their concerns with their salon’s cosmetologist.
