Additionally, Ben Kingsley and Alfred Molina played characters named Nizam and Sheik Amar, respectively. The titular prince, Dastan, was played by Jake Gyllenhaal. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (2010) Uwe Boll, you make it so hard to love you.Ĥ2. Everything hovers around that level of bad and offensive for the rest of the movie, making this an easy call for definitively worst video-game adaptation ever. The argument ends with them deciding to fly to the Bahamas instead, but then the passengers of their hijacked plane revolt and force it to crash into the World Trade Center. Postal opens on two terrorists in the cockpit of a plane, fighting about how many virgins greet martyrs when they enter heaven. Here it is, a movie that should make you think Warcraft is high art. Our regrets to any staunch defenders of those two titles. But briefly, an explanation: Entries had to be live action, meaning no Angry Birds, and while BloodRayne is on this list, BloodRayne: Deliverance and BloodRayne: The Third Reich had little to do with the source material, so they were left out of the rankings. So, here’s every video-game movie ranked according to its place in the video-game movie canon, starting with the most absolutely unwatchable and descending down to rare work of honest to god quality. Street Fighter is always going to suffer in comparison to, say, Die Hard, but if you consider it in the context of similar fare, things start to look a little more impressive. It’s useless to judge video-game movies the way we judge other movies, so Vulture has decided to weigh them exclusively against their peers. Promising growth is happening in the game movie space, and for that we should rejoice!īut while the paradigm might be shifting ever so slightly, B-movie status is historically the ceiling on these kinds of products. Alicia Vikander’s Tomb Raider has garnered a respectable chorus of supporters in the years since its release, and 2021’s Werewolves Within turned out to be a straight up gem. It eked out a positive critical consensus and even reintroduced the singular physical comedy stylings of Jim Carrey after a long Serious Film hiatus. But things started to change with the arrival of Sega and Paramount’s lovable live-action Sonic the Hedgehog in 2020. In the three decades since the release of the first game-to-screen movie, 1993’s Super Mario Bros., there have been precious few good entries in the genre (in a critical sense). Something has happened in video-game adaptations over the past few years. This article was originally published in 2016 and has been updated to include recent releases, including this month’s Sonic 2.

![]() You can find this panel at the top of the working screen. There is one more place where you can find same Leading option which is Character Formatting panel. Just go to this list and enable it by clicking on it. If there is no such panel you can find it in the scroll down list of Window menu. All the options of Leading is same here as we discussed above. The same option of Leading you can also find in the Properties panel which you can find in the panels section, right side of working screen. ![]() So Auto spacing will be at 120% of font size of text. If we change font size as 10 then you can see leading will change as 12 which is 120% of 10. I will choose Auto option for Leading this time and when you click on it, it will show you a specific point value. Now let us select text line of same font size and now here font size is 12 point in Character panel. It is because we have selected two text of different sizes. You can see there is no font size showing in the font size box of this panel. You can enter your desired value manually also. I will select this heading and line of this paragraph and when I can click on down arrow key of Leading box then I can choose any point size for spacing between lines.įor example if I choose 18 point then the spacing will be 18 point for these two lines. Here in this box of Leading option we have Auto option that means InDesign set the leadings between lines itself on the basis of font size. Now in this Character panel there is Leading option. So go to Type & Tables menu option of it and here is Character option or you can press Ctrl + T as its shortcut key. If you are unable to find this panel you can find it in the scroll down list of the Windows menu. Not a big deal, but takes a little attention.I will open this Character panel for this purpose. For example, if you later decide to delete one, the only good way to do it is to click elsewhere in the paragraph and then use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move the cursor into position. Of course, zero-width characters (especially when they’re kerned like this) are difficult to select with the Type tool. That means the word still spell-checks correctly! These special characters are both “zero-width” and don’t break the word into two. The solution: Add another non-joiner character with more negative kerning:īy the way, you don’t have to use the non-joiner you could use the End Nested Style Here character. Unfortunately, InDesign has a maximum kerning limitation of –1000, which makes it tricky to bring the word even closer in to the drop cap. By the way, here’s how I inserted the non-joiner character from the Type menu: It’s really before the “c” but it appears to be after it because of the –1000 kerning. See that little light blue symbol that looks like it’s after the “c”? That’s the invisible character (Type > Show Hidden Characters) indicating there’s a non-joiner there. However, this is not what we’re trying to achieve… we just want the first line to be kerned in! Fortunately, one of our eagle-eyed readers named Janet pointed out a trick shared by Petteri Paananen on the Adobe forums: If you place a non-joiner character between the drop cap and the second letter, you can then kern the space between that non-joiner and the following letter (the “c” in the example above). This kerning trick is pretty cool, and in fact, you can push it to the extreme, making the drop cap appear entirely behind the text itself: You can see the kerning value is -250 in the Control panel.) (In the image above I set the color of the drop cap character to blue to make it easier to see. You may already know the kerning trick: If you place the type cursor between the first two letters of the word, you can set the kerning to a negative number, which brings the letters closer together… but it also changes the spacing for all the subsequent lines: If only we could make that first line snug in closer to the drop cap! For instance, in the image above, the first word (“Academic”) appears to be two words because there is too much space between the drop cap and the rest of the word. But some people just want to bring the first line in a bit closer to the drop cap. ![]() There are ways to cause a non-rectangular runaround ( I wrote about it here, and Anne-Marie shows the technique in a short video here). That means the text to the right of the drop cap does not runaround or wrap to the contours of the character: When you assign drop cap formatting to a paragraph (so that one or more letters at the beginning of the paragraph drop down more than one line), InDesign creates the drop cap in a rectangular area. ![]() The other road he saw it was grassy and he “And having perhaps the better claim” (Frost 7). He observed both paths “And looked down one as far as I could/ To where it bent in the undergrowth” (4-5). On the other hand, the irony in the last stanza shows that we can only know the outcome of making a decision after we have made it and not a minute before as the speaker demonstrates. The less travelled road does not mean it is necessarily a better choice because he says something different in the last stanza hence the irony (Pritchard 1). The speaker is remorseful and he shall be telling “somewhere ages and ages hence” (Frost 17). For instance, many would take the more travelled road, but would it have made any difference? Thus, he chose to go a different way than most people. However, he will never know because there is no chance of going back to take the road not taken.īesides, the speaker has shown independence of mind at the point of making his decisions because he says: “I choose the one less travelled by/And that has made all the difference” (Frost 19-20). Furthermore, the speaker has no control of what may happen to his life in the path that he chose, but there is the chance of regretting taking it because the other one not taken may have had a different result. It is ironical that the speaker would have to explain his decision in his later days yet he made a decision that had to be made and the nature takes its course. It is ironic that he would feel remorse yet a decision had to be made to take one path between the two unknown roads. He seems to be saying that he could not have known what was ahead on the path he took, but maybe things would have different if he had taken the other road that he did not. He is trying to say even though taking that road has its consequences it was really a matter of fate as both roads looked equally worn. He seems to be justifying the reason he took the less travelled road “because it was grassy and wanted wear” (Frost 8). The last stanza is ironic because the speaker introduces a sign of remorse through his words “I shall be telling with a sigh” (Frost 16). Sometimes one cannot tell how the decision one makes will turn out, but it is fate that it has to be made and the rest left to chance. The roads symbolize the decisions that people have to make in their day to day lives. The two roads pose a dilemma for the speaker, but a choice has to be made. Therefore, the speaker has to take one of the roads and live with the consequences of taking that road. ![]() ![]() No road is less travelled as the speaker puts it “the passing there / Had worn them really about the same” (Frost 9-10). A decision to take one road has to be made because “And sorry I could not travel both” (Frost 2). The speaker is not concerned with the road less traveled, but choosing one road at the fork. ![]() Atkins’ own history of heart attacks, congestive heart failure and hypertension - the Atkins diet generated new interest in the mid-1990s, as further studies and the release of the made-for-TV movie “…First Do No Harm” documented the numerous positive effects of a ketogenic diet. Atkins’ Diet Revolution,” which advocated severely limiting carbohydrates and ignoring fat intake altogether.ĭespite complaints from critics that high-fat diets are hard on the heart - exacerbated by Dr. Ketogenic diets first gained popularity in 1972 with the publication of Dr. Keto refers to ketones, chemicals used by the body for energy when carbs are scarce or not available.

These birds do not need rescued unless an obvious injury or illness is suspected. JUVENILE: During this phase of development the bird is capable of flight but still being provided food by the parent. Again, if you are concerned but are not sure if the bird needs rescued, please call us. Although these babies are spending most of their time on the ground, their parents are still feeding and caring for them. Unless you see blood or an obvious injury, or the bird is in immediate danger, please leave it alone. Fledgling birds who have left the nest are still learning to fly and may only do short, hopping flights. Do not give food or water unless advised by a staff member.īRANCHER OF FLEDGLING: During the spring and summer, when many baby birds are leaving the nest and figuring out life as a bird, a bird may be on the ground but not in need of help. If the bird must stay overnight with you, please contact the Sanctuary for further instructions. Baby birds who do not have feathers need to be kept warm using a heating pad. Contact the Sanctuary as soon as possible time is an important factor. If you cannot find or reach the nest, or if the bird is obviously in need of help, please place the bird in a nest-like structure (such as a bowl or cup lined with paper towels) in a cardboard box and keep in a quiet, dark location. Birds do not have a well-developed sense of smell and the parents will return to care for the baby even though you have handled it. If you are able to locate the nest, return the baby bird to it. If the baby bird does not have feathers yet or only has feathers on parts of its body, first attempt to find the nest that the baby may have fallen from. NESTLINGS: A bird that is dependent on its parents for warm and nutrition a requires a nest structure for support. Nestling, Fledgling/ Brancher and Juvenile.

As investors, you want to hear the bad news. That's usually a good thing, as prudence can often pay off. Whether or not we're in a recession or heading into one, a lot of public companies are acknowledging the downturn and preparing for it by curbing their spending, watching their head counts, and battening the hatches. That's the highest number in more than a decade, and we have to go all the way back to the Great Financial Crisis to find more mentions of the 'r' word in earnings calls. In this most recent earnings season, according to FactSet, 240 companies–nearly half of the S&P 500–have mentioned the word ' recession' in their reports and earnings calls. Well, our number one thing to watch this week is the tone we're hearing from public companies. When companies are overly pessimistic and they are public about it, they are probably acting out all their bad news, hoping that investors will appreciate the transparency and decide they can live with the bad news and recommit to owning shares in that company. This theory also kind of works inside companies as well. Too much optimism is usually a sign that the market is overbought and it may be time to back away. Just how bearish is individual retail investor sentiment right now? Well, according to the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII), which runs a sentiment survey every week, the 40-week average for sentiment readings has never been as low as it is right now. If everyone's negative or pessimistic, that usually leads to a tipping point where sellers get exhausted, all the bad news gets priced into the market, and the bold buyers start buying. ![]() They say that super-negative investor sentiment is a contrarian sign. Let's get to our big three things this week. ![]() “ooVoo will be a fantastic choice for BlackBerry 10 customers looking for a multi-user video communications service that can connect them to their contacts on virtually any computer or mobile device, and we are pleased to work with ooVoo to help bring their service to our customers.”Ĭisco, SAP, Box, communications provider Truphone and digital dictation specialist BigHand are just a few of the companies whose applications will be available for BlackBerry 10 at launch. “As a leader in communications, we understand the importance of bringing people together in an innovative way that is easy to use,” RIM’s vice president of global alliances and business development Martyn Mallick said in a statement.
