Notably, this is the first time we are aware of that The Ocean has been performed at every concert on a tour leg, though it came close on the third and fourth legs of the Boy Tour (17 of 27 concerts, and 53 of 59 respectively) and the fifth leg of October (8 of 9 concerts). New Year's Day, Song for Someone, and Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses were all also played just once. The final rotational song was The Electric Co., played just once this leg. Red Flag Day was the least performed new song, appearing only four times once in the rotational slot and the other three times in the company of Gloria. They were played on the same night just once, 7 May in San Jose. Of the songs that were rotated, Gloria was performed 15 times and All Because of You on 11 occasions. Of the 32 songs performed over the 27 nights of the first leg, 23 of them were played every night. The first concert of the leg was the longest at 27 songs the next 7 nights varied between 25 and 26 songs, and every subsequent performance had 24 songs (though 21 June in Boston is listed at 25 songs due to the recitation of the poem Hedgehog). Bono ended the tour leg by twisting his ankle as he left the stage during 13. Asking if the song was just a tune or had chords as well he was informed by Edge that it had chords, to which he responded with an expletive. ![]() Resuming discussion on the song at hand he quipped that the reason he doesn't remember writing it is because Edge claims that he wrote it instead. As usual Bono spoke about Pop before Staring at the Sun, this time name-dropping Please as a song from the album that meant a lot to him. The setlist was mostly unchanged from the normal narrative of the tour thus far Gloria was restored to the set after missing two concerts, and it came with the usual G-L-O-R-I-A snippet at the end. ![]() Not only was it their first visit to this small village (it, along with Chesterfield, Mohegan, and Oakdale, forms the town of Montville which has a population under 20,000), it was also the first time U2 have played in the state since 7 December 2005 in Hartford. ![]() Tonight brings an end to the first leg of the Experience + Innocence Tour, and U2 closed it off with their first performance in Uncasville, Connecticut.

Megan McCallister is Kevins older sister in Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.Unlike Buzz, she isnt as mean to Kevin, and is instead quite protective of him.She loves and cares for Kevin, despite her being mean to him sometimes. Whatever your familial cabal is in the mood for, throw on one of these flicks and everyone will cheer. Megan McCallister is Kevin s older sister in Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. But there are also classics from Hollywood’s Golden Age, live-action adventures stretching across generations, inspirational tales of adversity overcome and comedies that’ll make everyone laugh, regardless of age. Yes, among these 50 sterling picks, you’ll find plenty of animated classics, many of which you probably loved as a kid. One major misconception is that ‘family movie’ isn’t a euphemism for ‘kids movie’. It is possible to find a movie that everyone agrees on, and we’re here to help. Finding a film that satisfies the entire brood is no easy task, and if you’re not prepared, the evening can end in a flurry of tears, insults and slammed doors. Whether or not fans will be in for a family reunion featuring the two very different McCallister brothers remains to be seen, but it would surely delight fans who grew up with the original 1990 Christmas flick. Fortunately, audiences don’t have much longer to wait before Home Sweet Home Alone releases on Disney+.Family movie night can be a major source of anxiety. Original series star Macaulay Culkin's Kevin McCallister has been confirmed for a cameo appearance alongside Ratray's Buzz, but it looks like Disney is holding that reveal for the film’s release. Still, some of the reboot’s biggest promises go unseen in the new trailer. ![]() Yates, Kemper and Delaney are a great core trio, and with them taking the lead, Home Sweet Home Alone could be the best film the franchise has seen in decades. The original Home Alone ran on a pretty simple formula, but it succeeded on the merits of its creativity and the talent of its cast. That could be seen as a bad thing by those hoping for something new and fresh, but for a franchise that’s yielded so many disappointments through the years, it ultimately seems like the right call. So far, the Home Alone reboot looks like it's hitting almost every major beat from the original Home Alone. Check out the Home Sweet Home Alone trailer below. There are lots of house traps, trampolines, and a brief cameo from the original film’s Buzz McCallister (Devin Ratray), who is now a police officer. ![]() The footage shows new protagonist Max Mercer (Yates) being accidentally left behind by his parents when they leave for their Christmas vacation, only to end up facing off against home invaders Jeff (Delaney) and Pam (Kemper). ![]() As teased in the Home Sweet Home Alone, the bullying. Related: American Horror Story Perfectly Reverses Macaulay Culkin’s Home Alone Roleįrom what’s been shown in the new trailer from 20th Century Studios, it looks like Home Sweet Home Alone could be a major return to form for the franchise, including one of its most memorable characters. The McCallister Security sign isn't the only hint we get of Kevin's life in 2021.His brother Buzz (Devin Ratray) also gives us a family update. However, the later entries in the series, which include Home Alone 3, Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House, and Home Alone: The Holiday Heist all released to dismal reviews, with the last two films not even premiering in theaters. Its sequel, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York has its fair share of supporters as well. The original 1990 film is a certifiable classic and one of the most popular Christmas movies of the past few decades. Despite being a staple of modern pop culture, the Home Alone franchise has had more downs than ups of late. ![]() Is Split an Unbreakable Sequel?Īs for the actual final scene: it is a direct reference to Unbreakable, of course. The implication is that Casey will confirm the already clouding suspicion about something being rotten in the state of her proverbial Denmark, and with an evil, lecherous uncle no less. The authority figure’s attention, like our own, is instantly drawn to the fire in Casey’s eyes. Likewise, she refuses to be escorted back to hell with her uncle. She couldn’t pull the trigger on her uncle as a child, but as a young woman she’ll fire the shotgun at the Beast. Whereas earlier she allowed a classmate’s father to gently shepherd her into his driving her-with no more resistance than she had when watching Dennis knock out the two girls in the backseat and then come for her-she is now done with letting herself get wordlessly pushed into one prison after another. While this is more open to interpretation, the intent of the scene is clearly that Casey has stopped being passive in her victimization. ![]() She is told by a police officer that her uncle has arrived to pick her up, but Casey does not leave the squad car. There is a bit of ambiguity as to what happens to Casey after her horrific ordeal. ![]() Also appropriate to the material, there is a steely authenticity to the way Taylor-Joy underplays her often mute heroine. And while I believe the film is open to that reading, I would argue that McAvoy and Taylor-Joy are both so good in their roles-with the Scottish actor being exceptionally brilliant in a scenery-chewing tour de force-that they ground the ugliness with some semblance of truth. Still, there is an obvious argument to be made that this is exploiting real-life traumas for genre thrills. In other words, because Kevin Wendell was abused by his mother, he’d empathize with Casey’s signs of similar abuse. Intentionally, the filmmaker is working from the analytical research that suggests DID is sometimes borne as a form of neurological protection or relief from the neurotoxic effects of traumatic stress. Undoubtedly, Shyamalan broaching such heinous and heartbreaking subjects will be challenged and critiqued for weeks to come. Tragically, she is unable to pull the trigger and all too realistically says nothing to her father about the abuse… which only continues for the rest of her adolescence after her father dies of a heart attack and she is forced to live with her abuser. After being beckoned to take off her clothes on a hunting trip, the film cuts away from the unimaginable evil to some time later when Casey attempts to shoot and kill her uncle. This is first discovered during one of several intensely disturbing flashbacks to Casey’s childhood. As it’s been confirmed earlier in the picture, Casey was abused repeatedly over the years by her uncle. However, upon Casey’s shirt being ripped off in their final struggle, it is revealed that she has scars on her stomach-scars caused by self-inflicted harm and cutting. And apparently it did, hence the Beast being able to dismiss the shotgun shells that Casey ( Anya Taylor-Joy) fires at him in what at first appears to be a traditional thriller showdown between a proverbial monster and his final girl prey. So the alter Dennis is convinced that the elusive 24th personality, the Beast, has skin as hard as a rhino’s and fingers strong enough to dig into stone, allowing it to climb walls. Now, does this mean that an individual who lives with DID could will themselves into having the power set of Spider-Man? No, but hence the aforementioned pseudoscience, which is the refuge of many creators in the genre, going back to its progenitor, Mary Shelley and her obsession with medieval and renaissance alchemy in Frankenstein. Further, alters have demonstrably shown differences in visual parameters, including corneal curvature and pupil size. This is based on recent studies in the last 20 years that indicate individuals diagnosed with DID have shown physiologic differences between their ‘alters’ (personalities), including dominant handedness, response to the same medication, and allergic sensitivities. Karen Fletcher (wonderfully played by Betty Buckley) repeatedly stresses, there is evidence that individuals with multiple personalities can change their body chemistry. ![]() Shorts are perfect for warmer weather, but don’t be shy to throw on a pair of tights and rock your jean shorts during the fall and winter months. ![]() And don’t worry about length, focus on different hems and cuts, like cuffed or even super short shorts, to find a pair of denim shorts all your own.

All you'd need is the ability to actually range the target with those weapons quickly. 2 week EC match with several hundred players, planetside style, with full combined arms would make artillery vehicles much more useful since you could easily provide fire support from over 4 km away with some vehicles that fire just straight HE. Honestly it's part of the reason I wish that EC proposal was being worked on. No tanks (Except the Matilda Hedgehog) are equiped with proper mortars for fully indirect fire. Some maps are in higher tiers, but then they're too hilly or too cramped to make it possible from where you CAN fire on them. Even then most of the maps don't have a grid size reference making it impossible to perform indirect fire. Issue is, no map that normally has an artillery truck is big enough to make use of referencing fire other than firing onto the enemy airfields. Vertical targeting however may become problematic when shooting under odd angles, for example when flying upside down.Originally posted by GeneralZap:Honestly this is retarded stuff for sure, as blind firing was VERY much a thing in WW1/WW2, especially into trenches, past hills, etc. It allows you to point at your target rather than above them. When shooting at other distances you must correct for this yourself. The sight distance control is used to adjust the zeroing of your gun range. If enabled your guns and gunsight will be aligned such that your guns pass through your aimpoint at your set gun distance. Just one easy step to improve your aimwarthunder sightdistancecontrol tutorial tank panzer skillissue guide gameplay howto aiming tiger how to. If you disable it your guns simply shoot parallel to your plane and you must compensate for drop yourself (especially when shooting at targets quite a distance away). Vertical targeting compensates elevation for drop. Guns set to 500m would be only 1.2m apart. just a little tutorial on how to set up your rangefinder and sight distance control for long range engagements.0:00 Intro 0:17 Setting up the Rangefinder 0:5. The use of chaff and flares significantly improves the survivability of the aircraft in all game modes. For instance if in an exagerrated example engaging a fighter at 300m and your guns are 3m from the center, having your gun distance set to 100m would have your bullets be 6m wide at 300m. The Jaguar has access to a Radar Warning Receiver, which can be useful to alert the pilot of incoming aircraft with radar-guided missiles, or ground based radar anti-air. It should be noted that generally you should set your gun distance farther away than closer to the distance you fight most at. Any fighter expecting to shoot at bombers from a large distance should also select 800m.If you use a convergence like 500m though, you have much less bullet drop to account for (as the good distance to fire from would be about 350-650m). If you use a larger convergence like 800m, you will have to account for bullet drop when you decide to start firing at 1000m (firing from 600-1000m should still have all bullets hitting the target). Ground attack planes with wing mounted guns (like the A26-B-50) would need gun convergence though. Ground attack planes such as the IL-2 or Stuka should set their gun distance to 800m or 'no' in order to engage flak and other soft targets from a large distance.Focussing firepower is unnecessary as these weapons are overkill against fighter planes However fighters with very powerful weaponry such as the Bf 109 G-6 (U4/R4) with triple mk 108 should set a larger gun convergence so that the cannon shells will have a better spread and have more likelihood to hit. When I try, the green circle stays at the center of the HUD, but the missile sight tracks my view.Fighters should set their gun distance to 300~500m to focus their firepower to increase their odds of destroying components of an aircraft rather than spraying all over the aircraft.You should change this distance to where you are most likely to be engaging targets: Setting your gun distance correctly is more important for fighters with wing mounted guns than fighters with nose mounted guns. Setting your gun distance to 'no' makes them shoot parallel, not converging at all. Setting them to 200m angles the guns inwards so that they criss-cross at 200m distance. Setting your gun distance changes the way the guns are set horizontally. ![]() If you do not understand what is causing this behavior, please contact us here.

Fire (Igni, incineration) works very well, strong sword strikes are also potent against this boss when it huddles for protection. It can also knockdown from melee range, but if you properly chain your attacks (swift strikes until she huddles protectively, strong strike to break her huddle), the Queen won't be able to mount offense. Queen fight isn't the toughest one what you need to avoid is its charging attack, so try to be close to the beast. Three pods' destruction will summon the queen.

Okay, so back to the brining bag….I don’t recommend using a bucket or cooler to brine your turkey, although you can use it if you’re in a pinch. Some like to include the giblet meat with their stuffing, or roast alongside the turkey – I personally discard these parts, as no one in my house eats them. The giblets typically include the neck, liver, heart, and gizzard of the turkey. These are not necessary to the brining process. Speaking of the inside of the bird, be sure to remove the bag of giblets that have been placed inside the turkey. Your turkey should be mostly thawed by this point, but it’s okay if there are still ice crystals on the inside of the bird.
