Drawn to life5/21/2023 If we’ve helped you in any way, please consider making a contribution to help us continue our journalism. It has always been our goal to assist you in making informed decisions when spending your dining dollars. We hope you find our reviews and news articles useful and entertaining. So to those who ask me for dinner and a show recommendations now – electronically I no longer have a landline and I’m not even sure I still have a mailing address – I say choose one restaurant – any of those I mentioned above, but also Frontera Cocina, Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’, the Edison, Terralina Crafted Italian, Paddlefish or STK – and enjoy a full meal experience before heading to the show. My leisurely stroll of sipping and nibbling would have required us to begin at least an hour earlier than we did – two hours wasn’t enough. We zig-zagged through the throngs and high-tailed it to Jaléo (where we were welcome to stand at the bar) and only had time to order a cocktail – food was not an option – before getting to the show. (Don’t expect him to be on hand when a version of Wine Bar George opens in Terminal C at Orlando International Airport, however.)īut enjoying the cheeses and not wanting to swill our good wines put us behind schedule. (Good quality cheeses and really good honey.) Owner and master sommelier George Miliotes was there, as he usually is, and he’s always a congenial host. But a table opened up and we promised we would be there only a short time.īut we ordered the cheese board and some mac and cheese bites to nibble on, and of course had a glass of wine. That was due mostly to the crowds – every place was packed, including WBG, which would not allow us to stand at the bar – everyone must have a seat, we were told. We started at Wine Bar George and finished at Jaléo, but there wasn’t time for anything in between. I figured my guests and I would begin at Wine Bar George, stop in at Raglan Road or Morimoto Asia, duck underground to Enzo’s Hideaway, the finish at Jaléo. And they even include a new version of Wolfgang Puck Cafe, now back under the control of Puck and recommendable.įor my recent outing, I had intended to wine, dine and cocktail my way from one end of Disney Springs to the other, finishing near the Cirque du Soleil theater. And don’t get me started on Bongos, the dismal Cuban restaurant in the pineapple shaped building.īut look at the place now. Wolfgang Puck Cafe was there, in its original location, but its quality had sagged so much that I could not recommend it. They could get something just OK at House of Blues but they shouldn’t expect much in the way of a fine dining experience. In those early years, one of the most frequent requests I would get – via actual letters or real phone calls on a landline – were from people who wanted to know where they could dine before or after for the whole dinner and a show evening. The entertainment complex itself has transitioned from Downtown Disney to Pleasure Island, and the addition of the West Side, to the current iteration of Disney Springs. (The aerialist and the juggler are amazing but they could have come up with a more thrilling act to close the show than people on swings.) I recommend it.īut I was struck by how things have changed since Cirque du Soleil’s “La Nouba” first opened in 1998 in the elaborate circus tent-shaped building that was purpose-built for it. It’s a good production – maybe not as jaw-dropping spectacular as “O” or “Ká” in Las Vegas but with some terrific moments. I went to Disney Springs recently to see Cirque du Soleil’s “Drawn to Life,” which features the same high-quality acrobats, aerialists, dancers, musicians and skilled performers you’ll find in other CdS shows but tied together with a storyline based on Disney animations. Rainbow six extraction on gamepass5/21/2023 Written by Kyle Campbell on behalf of GLHF. Rainbow Six Extraction will launch on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Amazon Luna, Google Stadia, and PC on Jan. This is despite the fact that Rainbow Six Extraction is one of three total day one Xbox Game Pass games currently confirmed to be launching on January 20.

AVAILABLE NOW on Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Series XS, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Stadia, Amazon Luna, and PC. On Amazon Luna it will be available on January 19 at 9PM PT/January 20 at 12AM ET.

Ubisoft even heavily-reduced Rainbow Six Extraction’s price and added a buddy pass to help coax people into giving it a try. Ubisoft’s new co-op first-person shooter has yet to garner much hype, probably because alien parasites are such an odd fit for the Tom Clancy brand. 20, which is also the game’s global launch day!

House finch vs purple finch5/21/2023 During the warmer months the WBU Water Wigglers and Solar Fountains create moving water in your birdbath, making the bath even more attractive to birds. In the winter, heated birdbaths provide an excellent place for birds to drink. Water in a bird bath should be cleaned regularly as birds defecate, leave bits of food and feathers in the bath, not to mention leaves and other items that can end up in a bath. Water is essential to all birds and providing a bird bath means they don’t have to travel great distances to find water. In these flocks they are socially dominate over the goldfinch and subordinate to the Siskin. Here in Simcoe County, both are year-round residents. During the winter Purple Finches will often forage and roost with mixed flocks of Pine Siskin and American Goldfinch. House Finches are non-migratory, year-round residents in their territory while Purple Finches are predominately migratory in more Northern populations. Juveniles of both Purple and House Finches look similar to the the females, and neither experience seasonal plumage changes. While Purple Finches have a distinctive notched tail, the House Finch has a relatively shallow notch in its tail, often overlooked. The lack of an eye-stripe is a great field-marking to determine if you have a female House or Purple Finch. Like the Purple Finch, adult females aren’t red instead they are plain grayish-brown with thick, blurry streaks and an indistinctly marked face. Adult males are a rosy red colour on the face and upper breast, with a streaky brown back, belly and tail. Their wings are short, which gives the tail the illusion of being long by comparison. House Finches (left) also have fairly large large beaks and somewhat long, flat heads. The tail of both sexes appears short and is clearly notched at the tip. They are coarsely streaked below, with strong facial markings including a whitish eye-stripe and a dark line down the side of the throat. Female Purple Finches have no red whatsoever and are often mistaken for sparrows at first glance. They are often described as looking like they were "dipped in raspberry-jelly". Male Purple Finches are a soft pinkish red on the head and breast, which mixes into brown on their back and cloudy white on the belly. Purple Finches (right, male) have powerful, conical beaks that are far larger than any sparrows. One of the most common ID challenges to birders, new or experienced, the two can look very similar, but there are ways to tell these look-a-likes apart! How do I to Tell House and Purple Finches Apart?īoth House and Purple Finches are small birds, coming in about the same size as a typical House Sparrow. This species moves very erratically from year to year, so if you didn't have them this year don't despair, there’s always a chance they’ll arrive next year. Your backyard feeder is a great place to look for Purple Finches. Look for House Finches feeding on the ground or at bird feeders, or perching high in nearby trees. House Finches are comfortable in urban areas such as city parks, city centres, backyards, farms, and forest edges, and these gregarious and social birds prefer to hang out in large noisy groups that are hard to miss when nearby. Attracting House and Purple Finches to Your Backyard He made them stay – and with his limitedf resources of five loaves and two fish, all ate and were filled.īy the very act of Jesus, he is telling us that there are no hopeless situations. But Jesus thought otherwise… He was moved with compassion rather than discouraged by the burden. Seeing the burden of a crowd of 5,000, the disciples wanted the people to go away and buy food for themselves. But, if we truly love our Lord, we must stop finding reasons for not moving an extra mile for someone in need. It is usually not so much the greatness of our troubles but the littleness of our spirit which causes us to complain and do away with what is not convenient. So we file our burdens away from our mind. Normally, we want to get rid of people and work that burden us. Pag gusto, hahanap ng paraan pag ayaw, maraming dahilan. He who really wants to do something, finds a way he who doesn’t, finds an excuse. Get up and go outside and see.” The husband continued to gaze at the screen for a second, sighed, then said, “Oh Ma, why don’t we just call the dog in and see if he’s wet.” After a long silence, the wife said: “Honey, I think it’s raining. Like the disciples, we often choose the easy path because the hard way is inconvenient.Ī husband and his wife were sitting in front of the TV one evening, just whiling away the time before going to bed. Instead, they chose the easy way – to dismiss them and have them buy their own food. Obviously, the disciples were not willing to give the crowd the food they needed. William Shakespeare once said, “If there is a good will, there is a great way.” This saying is commonly known to us as “ Where there’s a will, there’s a way.”.

Acura type s5/21/2023 Overall, if you are looking for a well-rounded vehicle that packs a punch from a standstill and takes corners effortlessly, then you will want a Type S model. Also, the Type S gets appearance enhancements that make it even sportier-looking while delivering a performance function. Acura has engineered the perfect mix of performance and handling with this trim, giving you a fantastic vehicle with loads of performance. Acura Type S Model OverviewĪcura is known for technological advancement and reliable vehicles for on-road use, but to take your beloved TLX, MDX, or NSX to the next level, you will want to opt for the Type S trim. Contact us to inquire about which Type S model is the best fit for your needs, and we will help you take home your dream Acura. We stock the latest models from the Acura lineup, including the Type S trim on the MDX, NSX, and TLX, giving you the exact performance you need to get a thrilling drive. The Type S boots out the four-cylinder in favor of Acura’s totally new 3.0-liter turbocharged V6. Our local Acura dealer told us later models supposedly had the fix, but as it was hardware and not software-related, our car still does not have wireless charging.When looking for a sedan, SUV, or even a sports car, with loads of performance and fantastic drivability, our new inventory at Westside Acura doesn't disappoint. What bugged us the most, as it relates to the infotainment, was that our 2021 model-year Type S only supported older iPhones for wireless charging. We’re not huge fans of large infotainment screens, so we found Acura’s system adequate and less-intrusive. The fit and finish of the interior is top-notch, but more rear-passenger space would have been appreciated. During our ownership, we were forced to move the front passenger seat significantly forward to allow legroom for our children who still use front-facing car seats. It's completely the opposite for the interior, despite its larger size, the interior is slightly smaller than its competitors'. The direct competitors of the Type S are currently the S4 and M340i, but it’s roughly the same size as the Audi A6 or BMW 5-series. Starting with its segment, compact sports sedan, there was nothing “compact” about the TLX other than its interior. The handling of this car truly invokes a sense of overconfidence.Īlthough the Acura TLX Type S has proven to be a great all around car of the compact sports sedan segment, its shortcomings became apparent during our 1-year ownership. At any speed, in any mode, in any condition, the Type S felt planted, thanks to its SH AWD system. Driving dynamics in the sport modes changed as suspension stiffened, acceleration became more responsive, and the steering feel became more weighted. We were also grateful the sound piped into the cabin did not sound too artificial looking at you Mercedes. With sport valves open, the Type S has a raspy exhaust note that’s pleasant and not overbearing. Including a 1,195 destination charge, the ‘24 Integra Type S will start at 51,995. Sport and Sport+ modes were ideal for the occasional on-ramp acceleration or necessary sudden overtake, they also allowed the turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 to clear its throat and sing. And now just under a month after Acura fully revealed the Integra Type S we finally know how much it’ll cost. Any performance difference of the Type S compared to its competitors are virtually unnoticed in the real world, unless a M340i X-Drive pulled up beside us. With the sportier modes engaged, the Type S became hugely entertaining. Even though the TLX Type S uses the same fly-by-wire braking technology as the NSX, we found the pedal feel to still be engaging, regardless of the driving mode we found ourselves in. It may not be Rolls-Royce-comfortable, but we never got tired or sore after long drives. In the two placid modes, we always felt connected to the road while the ride was relaxed, the TLX Type S maintained its composure without sacrificing comfort or road feel. Of the various driving modes, most of our time was spent in Comfort and Normal, where the noticeable difference between the two is mainly the weight of the steering feel. The standard 2024 Integra, with its 200-hp, turbo 1.5-liter four-cylinder and automatic transmission, is EPA-rated for up to 30/37/33 mpg. The Type S is docile and calm in normal driving, to the point where your family won’t think twice that 0-60 mph can be achieved in less than 5 seconds. The unholy where to watch5/21/2023 Even if the motel is cheap, the trip would cost way more than $150." Per diem for journalists doesn't really exist anymore like it used to, not to mention salaries, but still, it's a bit much, especially for a cattle mutilation story. But interviewing some crackpot teenager healing people in a field in Massachusetts? I kept thinking: "He goes out of town for weeks, putting himself up at a motel, for an online mag only paying $150 a story. Really? Maybe if he dug up the equivalent of the Pentagon Papers, or uncovered evidence of war crimes, or maybe if he tripped over a long-lost safe deposit box containing Adolf Hitler's teenage diary, maybe these things might warrant a re-entry into the big leagues. This will be his ticket back to the Big Time, he can feel it. Alice and Fenn "develop a friendship" (this is one of the aspects of the film that's not really explored.) The media flocks to the town, but it is Fenn who gets the "exclusive" interview with Alice. Soon after, crowds start gathering around the terrifying tree, coming to be healed by Alice. Alice has been Deaf since birth, but after her vision, she can hear and speak. Alice ( Cricket Brown), the girl in question, is the niece of the local Catholic priest, Father Hagen ( William Sadler). Fenn drinks a lot, has a grizzled cynical charm, and doesn't seem to be a candidate for being wowed by a teenage girl's freaky visions of a whispering glowing Virgin Mary, but he swallows it whole. Ten years prior, while on staff at a mainstream newspaper, he fabricated a bunch of stories, was found out and banished to his now horrible life of having to travel long distances to interview some delusional farmer who doesn't recognize that it's a Metallica logo on his cow's rear-end. "The Unholy" is not designed to be deep, but since glimmers of depth are present, the lack of follow-up makes this a disappointing watch.įenn is a mess. The devil doesn't strut into town cackling with evil glee. It has some excellent jump-scares, but overall there's something rote about the execution, bits that feel sketched-in as opposed to filled out, and a surface-level interest in the main theme of Herbert's novel: what happens when the unholy masks itself as holy? The local priest says, "Wherever God goes, the unholy follows." You got that right. But is the Virgin Mary who she says she is? Based on James Herbert's 1983 novel Shrine, "The Unholy" is fairly standard religious horror, just in time for Good Friday. Quivering with religious ecstasy, she performs a couple of miracle cures, and when word gets out-thanks to Fenn's stories-her small town turns into a modern-day Lourdes. Disgraced journalist Gerry Fenn ( Jeffrey Dean Morgan), investigating an incident of "cattle mutilation" in a small Massachusetts town, trips over another bigger story, when a deaf teenage girl sees the Virgin Mary in the trunk of the scariest-looking tree on the planet. |
