![]() The calculator will then figure estimates according to the general percentage values associated with a workable family budget. ![]() The calculator can be used to create either a monthly budget, or an annual budget buy simply entering the net income value in the appropriate field. The free Budget Planning Calculator will help families better understand where their money is going, and create a budget that works for their financial situation. Those with higher incomes should be better able to balance their debt to savings ration, while those with lower incomes may find saving more difficult. Again, these percentages will be greatly influenced by the family income. Where more money is devoted to debt removal, less can be devoted to savings. Savings and DebtĪ family's ability to save money is in direct proportion to their outstanding debt. Still, that being said, some general percentage values can be applied as general rules of thumb to help families build a better budget. Likewise transportation costs will rise or fall depending on the size of the family, and general work habits. Annual medial costs will largely depend on the size and the health concerns of the family. Secondary budgetary considerations, such as medical expenses, transportation and recreational spending, are more difficult to gauge. Alternatively, families with a higher income should find that the percentage of their household budget devoted to necessities is lower, and that more money is available for savings, personal expenses and charitable donations. Families with a limited income will find that their monthly and annual household necessities take up a large portion of their budget, and there will likely be less money left over for savings and discretionary spending. Depending on income, the percentage of the budget set aside for a family's necessities may be higher or lower. Necessities, like housing, utilities, food and clothing, typically make up the bulk of the family budget and are easier to plan for. ![]() This free tool will help you to see where your money is going, and how you can save for the future. ![]() But creating a family budget can be made easier with the Budget Planning Calculator. How much is spent each month on transportation? How much on clothing, health care, recreation, and charitable donations? And more importantly, how much money can be devoted to savings for that inevitable rainy day? Each of these factors makes creating a monthly budget frustrating and often confusing, and when we extend that over the course of a year the tension really mounts. But other financial concerns also shape the family budget. Most people have a fairly good handle on the necessities, and are well aware of the monthly costs of their rent or house payment, their utilities, and even their food costs. Creating a workable family budget can be difficult, and it's sometimes hard to know exactly where the money is going. ![]() ![]() ![]() His post is seen by a fellow Rick and Morty subreddit user who asks to meet up. Seeing Patty being so happy leads to Ben putting his guard down-he posts about Patty being his house manager and excited he is for her. She sounds delightful, and it’s a relief that Ben has at least one good person around him. Rather than go alone, Ben decides to give the tickets to Patty and her sons-initially, she insists on going with Ben, but finally acquiesces to go with her boys in the hopes of meeting Billy Crystal.Īlone and sad, Ben follows the game online and is buoyed by a video of Patty sharing snacks with Billy Crystal. Ben’s dad bails at the last minute-something he’s done far too many times before. Had Ben’s friendship with Devi actually happened, he might have asked her, but him talking about Paxton during Model UN has put Devi’s back up-though it’s really her fault, even if she won’t admit it to anyone.Įventually, Ben gives up and decides to go along with his dad. Unsurprisingly, the conversation becomes extremely awkward within minutes-Ben never talks to these boys and they’re uncomfortable with him engaging with them out of the blue.īen then makes the colossal mistake of asking Paxton and comes away shamefaced because apparently nobody can act like a normal human being around Paxton. He asks Trent and Trent’s friend-even though he only has one ticket. Related Story: Never Have I Ever Season 1, Episode 5 recap His choices are quite poor, to be honest. Shira refuses to go to the game because she will be eyebrow sculpting with her friends-even though Ben had informed her about this game months ago.īen now has one free ticket and he goes around the school asking anyone he can whether they’re interested. First up, the great Shira-who we have only heard about on Never Have I Ever, so far-turns out to be an extremely shallow young woman who has no interest in anything but gaining Instagram followers. Unfortunately for Ben, his joy is about to get cut short. Ben is ecstatic-not only will he get to see an amazing game but he’ll have his dad for company. How exciting.īut there’s a light at the end of this lonely tunnel! Ben’s dad has courtside tickets to the Clippers’ game for himself, Ben, and Ben’s girlfriend, Shira (Hanna Stein). He also spends his time on Rick and Morty subreddits, debating with super-fans. To distract himself from his extreme loneliness, Ben plays basketball by himself, and video games by himself. ![]() Which she could achieve by, you know, actually being at home with him?īut Ben is used to this and he just lets her go because there’s nothing else he can do.ĭuring the day, Ben’s only companion is his darling house manager, Patty (Donna Pieroni), who treats Ben like a prince and is more caring than his parents have ever been. He comes home just as his mom is leaving on yet another retreat-all for her to be a better mom to Ben.
![]() ![]() ![]() Since their credits don't seem to be on the film, I include them here:Īnd Jeremy Hilary Boob, Ph.D. Next from that huge vault of goodies, with the dropping of the Bond moratorium, will come a hopefully unbroken string of 007 hits!Įvery Beatle fan on Earth is probably already aware of this, but Savant just learned that the Mop Tops did not dub their own animated voices for Yellow Submarine. Argentina?"Ĭome September, MGM Home Video is going to make a lot of Beatle fans happy. And for the better: Who would want to do without the timeless comeback line, ". MGM restorer Lee Nedler says that there are couple of minor changes in dialog lines immediately before the new sequence, but otherwise the two versions are identical. Thad Driscoll's informative Beatle Movies web page includes the odd claim that the English cut had some different individual scenes, and a less sentimental ending, leaving the Chief Blue Meanie unredeemed by the Fab Four's message of Peace & Love. The publicity people did a good job distancing Yellow Submarine's 'spin' from that Saturday-morning 'music video' kiddie show, whose fairly insipid literalizations of the songs Savant remembers well. Dunning and producer / co-writer Al Brodax are listed in the same capacities on the Beatles animated TV series from a couple of years previous. Designer Heinz Edelmann and director George Dunning are heard in voiceovers. The color on the short has faded badly, which helps one appreciate the sparkling hues on the feature itself. The short has wonderful copy: "It's a truly Mod World where medium and message meld! - The New Art of the Psychedelic sixties!" It also boasts clips of the Beatles posing with their animated counterparts. It's an amusing time capsule that shows some really gear animators who look suspiciously like fashion models. One of the extras pegged for the disc is the contemporary making-of short subject The Beatles Mod Odyssey. Savant remembers Yellow Submarine from screenings where the frequent white screens showed not only film scratches but also flaws in the theater screen! The whites on the new transfer are as clean as a whistle. The animated Pop graphics are bright and colorful, without a trace of film dirt a huge improvement over all earlier releases. MGM/UA's new transfer is everything that could be hoped for. Viewers with even casual memories of the earlier release will have no trouble spotting the new footage when it jumps out at them (and barks, too). (Scoops hooray Spoilers boo.) The scene deals with one of the four-headed dogs the Blue Meanie troops use like bloodhounds. Like the rest of the 'fantabulous, psychedelic' feature, the footage is better seen than described. Hey Bulldog is not only one of the better new songs, its reinstatement smooths out the flow of Yellow Submarine. The best source Savant can find says Hey Bulldog was removed from the film for all non-British exhibition. The tune has been an issue since 1968: it was featured on the original soundtrack album even though it went missing in the movie itself. What will be restored, and seen for the first time by American fans, is the entire Beatles song, Hey Bulldog. An HDTV transfer has been done for future use.īut the biggest news is that this release will restore Yellow Submarine to its original English length, which by Savant's measure is three and a half minutes longer (Sources place the English at 90 minutes, and the US at 85). ![]() As the movie is a 1:66 original, if MGM follows policy the DVD will not be 16:9. Final format for the DVD has not been decided. The new film mix was done at POP audio in Santa Monica, in Dolby Digital 5.1. Information is that the DVD will be a Special Edition with lots of extras.Ī reportedly stunning remix of the Beatles songs was done in London from the original masters. ![]() Both a VHS and a DVD will surface in mid-September. This fall, MGM Home Entertainment will be reissuing Yellow Submarine worldwide once again. Long-withheld over a legal snag, it's often mentioned (along with the Beatles film Let it Be) as one of the most sought-after and requested titles in Home Video. Although it originally sold for $35.00, rare copies routinely change hands for hundreds. SPECIAL! Beatles Classic to Repremiere on video AND DVD!

![]() ![]() I personally don't like pixelated rouge-lites and both games do this, but rogue legacy looks much better and has smoother animations (while still being capped at 32). Nuclear thrones is a bit more tactical (until looping into endgame) where I wouldn't classify it as a bullet hell. Theres a lot of downtime in the first few levels of risk of rain and I hate running around an empty map. That's a really boring problem for the player to solve with no movespeed. Risk of rain has awkward problem where it times you then puts the gate down in a random location and doesn't tell you where. The way the gun RNG works makes it so you always get a decent weapon but it may not the the same one every time. Nuclear throne is highly skill dependent and most of the mutations are comparable and can be combined in cool ways. ![]() Risk of rain is much more RNG dependent to the point where playing without the artifacts on isn't very fun. Nuclear throne is a much better game imo. The folks over at /r/roguelites might be more help, but it's an even smaller community than this one, so it may still take a while to get a good response.Įdit: WazHack might be something you'd be interested in as well.Įdit 2: Broforce is another action platformer I've played that feels kind of similar (and has an awesome exaggerated sense of humor), but it doesn't have the roguelike elements (loot, procedural generation, permadeath, etc).Įdit 3: I just saw the bundle mentioned here, and both 99 Levels To Hell and Crystal Catacombs seem a lot like Risk of Rain. Sorry I can't give more help, but unfortunately I haven't played many of these games (I prefer the turn-based overhead play of most rogue likes over the real-time play of most rogue lites). I don't know many other side-scrolling roguelites, but you may want to try Spelunky or Rogue Legacy. Technically, Risk of Rain isn't a roguelike - it's an action platformer with roguelike elements, according to the steam page (it could also be called a rogue lite, which is a term used for a game that has some but not all of the elements that make up a roguelike).

Two weeks later most of them were using it. Eventually I told some of my own students that I use Zotero and to give it a go even though we're not supposed to endorse other software. I tried it myself - one of the worst user experiences imaginable, and I could totally understand why even doing references by hand is preferable. It turns out the problem was EndNote all along. Nope, even with the tutorials there was almost no uptake. The university even ran tutorials to show them how to set it up, add citations, and export the references, thinking maybe the students didn't understand the value of bibliography management software. My university offers EndNote (plus Web of Science and the Clarivate stack) for free for students and many of them don't use it - they'd rather manually manage the bibliography in their Word documents. >Zotero can do anything EndNote can do, is Open Source, and with that won't drive your PI up the wall with yet another expense. Unless you need Apple Pages support, which Apple keeps to itself and only sells for mighty moolah to a select few, Zotero can do anything EndNote can do, is Open Source, and with that won't drive your PI up the wall with yet another expense. I tend to keep my notes on papers in Zotero, attached to the paper, but export them for filing in Obsidian (which I then feed into MkDocs for our work group's large repo). The latest beta also adds full Markdown export for Notes. That way I can click a button in my browser and have the citation ready in my LaTeX editor, Word, or Obsidian ( ) within seconds. In short, everything I save into a specific folder in my library gets exported as a. ![]() Mendeley went full on Evil, and Papers for Mac is Mac only, closed source, and missing dozens of functionalities that are absolutely a must have in academic writing and research.Īn absolute must have is BetterBibTex ( ), which adds better Citekey management and, my personal highlight, "export on add" functionality. Zotero is, if you're not in the market for a closed source silo like EndNote, the only game left in town. ![]() ![]() ![]() They went on to release three more albums to commercial success Time and Chance in 1993, Now & Forever in 1996, and Awakening in 1998. The latter was the multicultural song they made off the advice given to them by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. In 1991, they released their debut album, C.M.B with their hit singles I Wanna Sex You Up and I Adore Mi Amore. They were told to make a multicultural song and with this song Color Me Badd bagged their first record label deal and got signed to Giant Records after the Giant Record executive Cassandra Mills heard a tape of the band singing the song. Their audition for the duo was the most successful one yet as Jam and Lewis gave them advice on a song to make. In 1990 when they had started living in New York, one night after performing at the ASCAP Music Awards they met Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, a record-producing duo who are known for being a huge addition to the career of Janet Jackson. These pop-up auditions were done for three other musical arts but when they performed for Jon Bon Jovi, he had them perform as his opening act for an audience twenty thousand strong.įour years after the Color Me Badd’s creation they decided to leave Oklahoma City to New York, where they continued auditioning for different people. Their plan worked as Bell was so impressed that he introduced the group to Adil Bayyan who worked as his road manager. ![]() The first person they had the opportunity to do this for was Robert Bell who was a member of the group, Kool & the Gang. The plan was to put on a performance for any major star who would be performing in Oklahoma City. The first thing all four of them planned to do was to do pop up auditions. They realized that they needed a kick in the right direction to jumpstart the career they wanted in music. Their first performance as a group was at a talent hunt in their school. Apparently, because of this, there was no need for auditions. The boys already knew each of them could sing as they were all part of the school choir. The four of them met while they were all in high school at Northwest Classen High school which is located in Oklahoma City. The Color Me Badd band was created in 1985 by the joint efforts of Kevin Thornton, Bryan Abrams, Tim Higgins, Mark Calderon, and Sam Watters who became the band members. ![]() Retrieved October 26th, 2021.The Rise Of ‘Color Me Badd Color Me Badd (Image Source)
