![]() Though “Renaissance” did not come close to matching the $92.8 million debut of “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” in October, it’s still a very good start for a concert film. “There was competition but it was from very different kinds of movies.” “They chose a great weekend,” said Paul Dergarabedian, the senior media analyst for Comscore. Films in the top 10 are expected to gross only $85 million in total.īut it was in this traditional “lull” that AMC Theatres found a good opportunity for “Renaissance” to shine. “To see it resonate with fans and with film critics on a weekend that many in the industry typically neglect is a testament to her immense talent, not just as a performer, but as a producer and director."ĭespite several other new releases including “Godzilla Minus One,” the Hindi-language “Animal," Angel Studios’ sci-fi thriller “The Shift," and Lionsgate’s John Woo-directed revenge pic “Silent Night," it was a slow weekend overall. “On behalf of AMC Theatres Distribution and the entire theatrical industry, we thank Beyoncé for bringing this incredible film directly to her fans,” said Elizabeth Frank, AMC Theatres executive vice president of worldwide programming, in a statement. and Canada, as well as 94 international territories, where it earned $6.4 million from 2,621 theaters. Not accounting for inflation, it's the first time a film has opened over $20 million on this weekend in 20 years (since “The Last Samurai”).īeyoncé wrote, directed and produced “Renaissance,” which is focused on the tour for her Grammy-winning album. The post-Thanksgiving, early December box office is notoriously slow, but “Renaissance" defied the odds. Her concert picture, “ Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé,” opened in first place with $21 million in North American ticket sales, according to estimates from AMC Theatres Sunday. ![]() Beyoncé ruled the box office this weekend. ![]() Roasted Pears: Make next-level good Roasted Pear Bread and roast the pears before you add them.You could also swap in stone fruit or berries like plums, peaches, blueberries, or strawberries for half of the pears too. Apple: Turn this into Apple Pear Bread by swapping half the pears with peeled and diced apples like Granny Smith, Jonagold, or Fuji apples.For a healthy Pear Bread, you can use applesauce or mashed banana instead of the oil. Butter: Replace the vegetable oil with melted butter for a buttery Pear Bread.Sprinkle evenly on top of the batter in the pan and cook as usual. Combine ½ cup rolled oats, ½ cup sugar, ½ cup flour, and 4 tablespoons cold butter with a fork until a crumble forms. Streusel Topping: Make Pear Bread with Oatmeal Streusel topping.Ginger especially goes well with pear, so add some fresh grated ginger for a bright zesty flavor. Spices: Swap out half the cinnamon with an apple pie spice blend, Pumpkin Pie Spice blend, or other warm spices like nutmeg or ginger.Try Candied Walnuts during the holidays for a sweet crunchy burst! Instead of almonds, you can use pecans, walnuts, or hazelnuts in your bread. Nuts: For extra nutty and earthier flavor, toast the nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant before adding.Once the batter is prepared though, you will want to bake it right away or your bread will turn out dense. You can also cut the pears up and store them in lemon water for a day, just make sure they are completely submerged so they don’t turn brown. Yes, Pear Bread can be baked ahead of time and frozen or refrigerated until you are ready to serve it. They add a delightful crunch, nutty flavor, and beautiful finishing touch to this delicious, fruity bread. Almonds: Sliced almonds are sprinkled on top of the bread before it bakes.It also helps activate the baking soda, so the bread is nice and fluffy. Lemon: Lemon juice is added to prevent the pears from browning and adds a touch of acidity.Cinnamon: Cinnamon adds a warm and comforting flavor to fruit breads and it goes especially well with the tender, sweet pears without overwhelming their delicate flavor.There is a lot of moisture in this batter thanks to the eggs, oil, and natural pear juices, so both are needed to help the bread rise well. Leavening: This bread recipe gets both baking powder and baking soda as leavening agents.Vanilla: Vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor of the bread and adds a warm, aromatic note that complements the sweetness of the pears and cinnamon.It also locks in moisture for soft, tender bread. Sugar: Pears tend to be sweet, depending on the type you use, but you still want to add a little sugar to help draw out their natural sweetness.Oil: Vegetable oil provides moisture to the bread, and using oil keeps it moist and tender for longer because it doesn’t return to a solid at room temperature like butter does.You want them to be room temp so they whip up a lot of air for a lighter bread. Eggs: Eggs add moisture and richness to the bread while binding all the ingredients together.Their delicate, lightly sweet and almost floral flavor is perfect for breakfast bread. They have a natural sweetness and their juices help keep the bread moist as it bakes. Pears: Fresh juicy D’Anjou pears are the star of this recipe delicious Pear Bread. Quadmesh allows for better results when rendering, producing animations, and can be useful for when undertaking CFD and FEA analysis on a part.

There is some absolutely essential topographical and subterranean data you need to gather through exploration, and for a time you're going to be criminally under-equipped to handle the search. The stage of Terraria between grabbing your first gear and fighting the Eye of Cthulhu is the most wide open section of the game. What’s next in life for the intrepid explorer? So you’re armed, dangerous, and you’ve given back to the community through civic construction. If you’ve done everything right, NPCs will eventually begin to populate these homes, offering some truly useful services like [[Items|Item} stores. You should go ahead and build at least four houses early on in the game, all near your own home. These kind folks provide all kinds of useful services. If you build empty houses to the proper specifications, friendly NPCs will appear and take up residence inside. You are now the best-equipped general contractor in Terraria, and the time has come for neighborhood planning. Later in the game you’ll want to upgrade your arsenal. Mushrooms spawn in patches throughout the Overworld. You should also scour the surface for Mushrooms, consumable items which restore Health when eaten. As long as you don’t venture too deep into the third subterranean Strata, these tools will serve you well against the enemies you are likely to encounter. Don't forget to make some Flaming Arrows as well. If your supply of Iron is limited, prioritize an Iron Broadsword supplemented by Copper Armor and the best Bow you can afford. Once you have an Anvil, start using your metallic resources to create combat gear. ![]() When you have enough Iron Bars, create an Anvil to unlock a world of new Weapons, Armor, and Tools. This handy little station allows you to smelt raw ore into Bars, which in turn serve as base components for an enormous number of Crafting recipes in conjunction with the Anvil. Follow your Torches back to the site of your demise and reclaim your gear.Īs soon as you have 20 stone, head back to your headquarters and fashion a Furnace. If you die underground in anything but Hardcore Difficulty, your dropped money and/or items will remain in the spot where you were slain. As you search, place Torches to form a breadcrumb trail back to your shelter. ![]() You’re looking for pockets of Copper and Iron. Explore any caves you find above or below your shaft, and search these caves for likely thin walls leading to other caverns. Don’t just start digging straight down.at this stage in the game that’s a good way to fall into trouble.Īfter digging a stair-step shaft maybe twenty blocks deep, switch to horizontal excavation. Then step outside of your house (being careful to close the door behind you) and find a likely place to begin a diagonal-downward shaft. You’ll need Stone and Iron Ore to build these, which means it is time to start digging.īefore you venture out, kill a number of Slimes for the Gel they drop and craft at least fifty Torches. While your Work Bench allows you to do a number of nifty things, you’ll also want to build a Furnace and an Iron Anvil to expand your Crafting options. Place at least one inside the house to keep things nice and bright. Once you have some Gel, head back to your Bench and craft some Torches. Kill it for Gel, an essential component in torchmaking.

The Normal Zombie is the most common zombie in Zombie Tower. A loud howling can be heard while the camera is zooming out, and the title is shown along with spooky music playing in the background after the camera stops zooming out. After the noob dies, the camera zooms out to the exterior of the 'cave', revealing the fact that the 'cave' is, in reality, inside a stone tower with a statue of a zombie on the front. The noob tries to run away and is unfortunately caught by the zombie, eventually killing it. In this video, a stereotypical noob, with the aforementioned colors, first walks inside a 'cave' with suspenseful music playing, but is met by a zombie. This game includes a 29-second video, which costs a whopping 1,000 ROBUX to submit. Some of the examples of the new weapons include the FN FAL. Also, the success also led to the creation of Zombie Tower 2, with new zombies, floors, and weapons. The games have a rather limited amount of players per server, holding only 7 players maximum. ![]() Due to the rapid success of the game, he has released a sequel, named Zombie Town.

The town developed around the site of a 13th-century hermitage. Leaving the mill, you can head across country on the old pilgrim’s way into Rocamadour, one of the most spectacular towns in France, clinging to the side of a cliff hundreds of feet above the Alzou Gorge. This enchanting pocket of French history gives a fascinating insight into the lawlessness of this region during the 13th century. At the base of the first descent is the ancient fortified mill of Cougnaguet. Possibly the best food on any night of ANY of our tours, not just the Dordogne.ĭay 4: Rocamadour and the Gouffre de Padirac (27 miles/44 km)Īs you leave Calés this morning, down a simply breathtaking descent, notice how the landscape has changed from the lush farmland of yesterday to the arid limestone causses on the way to Rocamadour. By now, you are in the middle of the limestone causse, away from other tourists, and you will wonder how on earth a chef of the caliber of Olivier Loeuillet ended up in a hotel in this tiny village. ![]() The swimming pool and sauna at Calès are welcome and well-deserved. You'll pass Domme-Sarlat Airport, but don't bank on seeing any airplanes - they're few and far between! On top of all this is the site of some interesting limestone caves.įrom Domme to Payrac, you'll go cross-country on tiny roads and see barely a soul. It is still surrounded by a medieval wall, and is one of the best preserved of all the bastidetowns. Known as the 'Acropolis of the Périgord', Domme was a key battleground in both the Hundred Years War and the Wars of Religion, and was used to imprison the Knights Templar in the 14th century. Domme sits 450 feet above the Dordogne and has famous panoramic views of the river. You'll also get your first shot at a decent hill on the way up to Domme. Today you'll pass La Roque Gageac, an amazing town built into the side of a cliff beside the Dordogne, originally built as a prehistoric fort. Castelnaud and Beynac were always in opposition to each other, and although both beloinged to both the French and the English at different times, they were never on the same side! ![]() You'll start by retracing your steps to the Castle of Castelnaud, which houses a museum of medieval warfare. The food here is very traditional - a superb introduction to Dordogne cuisine- and Pascal is the 6th generation of Malevilles to run the hotel. You can reach it by an absurdly steep path called the Basketmakers path - but not very quickly!Īt the Hostellerie Maleville you can meet the Maleville family. The castle was once the seat of a certain Richard the Lionheart and is well worth a look. You'll finish the day at Beynac, a picturesque village beside the Dordogne dominated by its castle set on a cliff 500 feet above. Baker was an extraordinary woman, as you'll discover - cabaret artiste, wartime spy for Charles de Gaulle, and the only woman to speak alongside Martin Luther King on the day of his famous 'I Have A Dream' speech. In the afternoon, you'll follow the Dordogne along quiet roads, passing the Châteaux of Beynac and Castelnaud, which face each other across the Dordogne, as well as the Château des Milandes, home of Josephine Baker. To atone, he built 3 churches, including the tiny St. Perhaps you're familiar with the story of King Henry II, the English king who carelessly asked some of his knights, when referring to the famous cleric Thomas Becket, "Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?" The knights followed his orders, and Henry was villified for Becket's death. Just before you reach Limeuil, you'll encounter little St. Limeuil is a beautiful bastide town, and the area where the rivers meet is a great place for a swim. Time to get on your bike! Today, you'll follow the Vézère to Limeuil, where it meets the Dordogne. It's rare that a 'national' musuem in France is not based in Paris, which is a clue about the importance of Les Eyzies in the world of pre-history. Nearby is the oldest sculpture in the world, a 20,000 year-old fish at the Abri de Poisson, and the Font de Gaume, site of some of the most important cave paintings in the world.Īnyone who has time should consider a visit to the National Museum of Prehistory. As well as the National Museum of Prehistory, Les Eyzies boasts the settlement of Cro Magnon, where the first example of homosapiens, or 'thinking man', was discovered. Les Eyzies is a small village of 900 people, but it styles itself as the 'Capital of Prehistory' - and with some justification. This delightful hotel sits on the banks of the River Beune, just upstream from where the Beune joins the Vézère. You'll stay at Le Moulin de la Beune, one of the highlights of the tour programme. However you decide to travel, arrive in the Dordogne at Les Eyzies on Saturday evening. The Mary Onettes are defined primarily by their comparison to other bands. After I fixed the iTunes download, I went out and collected a few more tracks from the artists web site. Unfortunately, the download they offered had some technical flaws, so I had to use Audio Hijack and Audacity to affect some repairs. One of the tracks was offered as a free download. * The Mary Onettes - The Mary Onettes: (5 songs) I first learned of this band from iTunes. ITunes free download - plus downloads from artists website: Here's a listing of some of the music I legally downloaded. I download music from websites, newsgroups (when I already own rights to the music), and a couple of commercial sources. Free music is available - Legally! Don't believe the major labels propaganda - Not all free music is illegal. If you like new music, you can do a google search to find your favorite artists web site, a new music web site, or an archive of free music. The major labels are killing themselves with their restrictive distribution and dissemination policies. Well, guess what? I won't buy it unless I can listen to it first. The major labels want you to pay for their product - letting you hear it for free is contrary to their business model. ![]() Artists want you to hear their music - If you like it, you'll buy it. Where do I get all this stuff? I find a lot of free (actually free) music by visiting several of the new music web sites out there. Here's a list of some of the music I recently acquired.

I've been singing GC's praises for many years now, and I'm not sure I would do without it. ![]() I use it to convert image formats into web standard formats, to create and edit image maps and other graphics. A fantastic piece of shareware that is well worth the price ($34.95). GraphicConverter is an image converter and editor. The developer of this fantastic application released a new beta version (6.0.4b0), in the past few days. This beta release contained a handful of bug fixes, but no updated or new features. This release marks the incremental advance of beta releases. Another product that's always getting better. One of my favorite pieces of software recently released an update. Made by Garmin, Kim took her time researching the purchase of this Nüvi 350. Kim and I plan to use it in both of our vehicles. This portable unit fits in the palm of your hand, and it comes with a windshield mounting kit. The other gift of note is a new GPS navigation unit. With plenty of room for expansion, I seriously doubt I'll run out of room any time soon. Now I can fit my 10,000+ songs onto a single iPod. ![]() Once I get that done, I can set up the old iPod for her. So that both of us can access the entire library. It'll take me some time, but I'm planning to make our iTunes library more accessible. It served me well over the last four years, but the battery is suffering greatly at this point. Two gifts warrant a mention in my 'techno-geek' blog. As part of my reward, I raked in a couple of nerd toys this holiday season. Maybe we'll see you in the months to come.Īpparently, I was a good boy this year. We wish we could make a trip out to see all our friends and family, but that's not going to happen this year. We sincerely hope that you and your family have a joyous time during the next few days, and throughout the year to come. As mentioned earlier, Kim and I would like to take the opportunity to wish all our visitors a 'Happy Holiday' season. ![]() Hershey’s Nuggets Special Dark Chocolate with Almonds.Hershey’s Nuggets Milk Chocolate with Almonds.Hershey’s Special Dark Mildly Sweet Chocolate Chips.Hershey’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Chips. ![]() Hershey’s Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips.Hershey’s Kisses Special Dark Mildly Sweet Chocolate.Hershey’s Kisses Dark Chocolate Filled with Mint Truffle.Hershey’s Kisses Milk Chocolate Filled with Cherry Cordial Crème.Hershey’s Kisses Milk Chocolate Filled with Caramel.Hershey’s Kisses Holiday Milk Chocolate Candy.Hershey’s Kisses Milk Chocolates with Grinch® Foils.Hershey’s Kisses Santa Hat Foils Milk Chocolate Candy.Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar with Almonds (1.45oz only).Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar (1.55 oz only).YORK THiNS Dark Chocolate Peppermint Patties.YORK Snowflakes Dark Chocolate Peppermint Patties.YORK Pantry Pack Dark Chocolate Snack Size Peppermint Patties.YORK Miniatures Dark Chocolate Peppermint Panties.YORK Hearts Dark Chocolate Peppermint Patties.YORK Dark Chocolate Snack Size Peppermint Patties.All PayDay Candy, including PayDay Snack Bites.Always read the Ingredient Label on packages and bulk bins to see if gluten-containing ingredients are present.” Jelly Belly jelly beans are free of gluten ingredients.
