Game Night. "...A strange game. The only way to win is not to play..."

again - professional movie reviewer here... just saying...

I'm one of them. I work for a local newspaper that's a bit short-handed at present. If breaking news happens on a Sunday, or if a holiday causes some of my other duties to be shifted about, I'll have to put in a few hours' work. It's normally not an issue, and management understand that if it's a planned-in-advance thing I'll get on it once I get out of sacrament meeting. The big issue is dealing with a certain co-worker who won't leave things be if I'm out of the office. Last time this came up, she made a hash of some paperwork that had been left on my desk because she didn't want to wait for me to get there and find the one document she needed.

Black Panther. Yeah - the film spends so much time on world-building that there's not a lot of room for action or humor.

Now the FBI's saying that they did indeed receive tips, but their Miami field office never acted on them. So... 17 people are dead now because someone didn't move in time.

Also... Newspaper movie critic here. Just saying.

So... Suppose we find intelligent life out there, and they're open to cultural & financial exchange. How do you see missionary work occurring?

Didn't shy away from it? The film is a de facto Christian movie.

When I was growing up, quite a bit of the local and stake leadership made it *explicit* that young women were not to consider any potential spouse who wasn't a returned missionary. If a guy hadn't served, he wasn't worth their time. No questions asked. If these individuals grew up in such an area, then I can see how they'd feel considerable pressure. And people wonder why I'm still single...

Speaking from personal experience? I wonder how many of those people who didn't serve a mission dropped away because individuals in their ward or stake gave them nothing but grief about the matter.

"Winchester" Save your money.

The ultimate issue with a guaranteed minimum income is: where will the money come from? There are a *lot* of people who would regard this the same as their hitting the lottery and so drop right out of the work force.

I'm uploading video I took to YouTube now. First two parts are up, and the third (which is massive) is going up now. If anyone's curious, I can post the links here.

"Hostiles" Hard "R" to be sure, but then the subject matter it touches on isn't light.

IIRC the album ended up getting remastered for re-release. Might want to check it out again.

Rock band The Smithereens covering Ringo Starr:

If you ask me though, "Presto" is criminally under-appreciated.

As seen on TV: "Pokemon The Movie: Hoopa And The Clash Of Ages" Not enough to cope with a bout of insomnia, but so linear even compared to other Pokemon movies anyone outside of the target audience is likely to be bored.

http://983thesnake.com/russell-m-nelson-called-as-17th-president-of-lds-church/ 98.3 KSNQ, Twin Falls (Idaho), is a classic rock station. Yet they put out a more professional article on President Nelson than half the "traditional" media outlets I've seen.

"12 Strong" One of the rare war movies that focuses more on presenting people as people than anything else.

I haven't used Norton in over a decade, not since I got struck by a virus specifically written to target the then-current version of it. For Malwarebytes, I just bought a basic subscription. I think it was $40 for the full year or something like that. Get Avast or your main anti-viral on your system first, and run that. Then go one at a time with the other programs, installing them, updating them, and running them. Malwarebytes is something you can likely run daily, and in fact if you have the paid package the system will automatically set itself to run once a day. On my system, it can take 10 - 20 minutes per run. I run Spybot and Avast at least once a week. With Spybot, sometimes you'll have to run the updates twice in case something fails to download. It takes about 30 minutes to run on my system. Avast is supposed to update automatically, but not always. If you run the "full" scan, it'll go deep into your system and go from there... but depending upon what you have it could easily be a few *hours* to complete. Also, some other things - 1. Never use Internet Explorer as a browser. Period. Only use it to download another browser, such as Firefox or Chrome. 2. Research ad-blocker attachments for your new browser. You may have to go third-party, such as Ad-Block Plus. IE doesn't support ad-blockers, which is why it's no good as a browser anymore. Why are ad-blockers so important? A lot of websites pay for their upkeep by selling advertising space to third parties. Hackers have realized that if they breach these third-party ad services, they can infect multiple computers at once. So by using a reliable ad-blocker and getting an anti-virus or anti-malware with active protection enabled, you stand a good chance of blocking any nasties located in the advertisements. 3. Never use Kaspersky. Kaspersky is a flaming mess even on a good day, such that it can and will bog your system to the point of bricking it up under certain circumstances. It also doesn't play well with other programs, and in fact Spybot used to warn users outright that if you tried to run it on a system that had Kaspersky the two would fight it out. It doesn't help matters any that Kaspersky is a Russian firm, leading to paranoia about who their #1 customer actually is.

Avast is a pretty good anti-viral program, and it does indeed have a "free" version. The big thing to understand though is that you'll sometimes have to restart your computer for updates to take effect. Malwarebytes is practically a must, and any AV or other "maintenance" program that won't let you install it needs to go. I kid you not when I say that it'll root out things other programs will miss. You can get it for free, but I went ahead and got a paid subscription for the higher-tier services. On occasion you'll have to manually tell it to seek updates, but the people at the "help" forum will walk you through it. Spybot is another good one you want to have handy, and in fact Spybot & Malwarebytes work like a tag-team: what one misses, the other usually picks up. It's also free. From there? CCleaner is a pretty reliable system maintenance tool, but you have to be careful with it. Using it to clean your system is like using bleach to clean your kitchen: it'll get the job done, but you have to make sure you don't get anything you don't want it to get. I also sometimes use Eusing as a registry cleaner. All of these can be gotten from download.com without issue, and IIRC all but Eusing have reliable websites as well.

I draw from far more sources than what you have in your poll. That being said, I actively avoid late-night shows because of how openly and blatantly politically biased they are.

"The Commuter". It's a Liam Neeson movie. That's about all there is to it.

For me at least, it barely happened. No one told me that my branch was changing schedule, so I ended up in an entirely different ward. It ended up being a hassle and a half just trying to figure out what happened. Hopefully, I'll have this together next Sunday.
