Different moods of a story11/21/2023 ![]() ![]() It’s also a mirroring of how Craig’s little sister sees him during an attack or when he has a bad day, in which she never diminishes his suffering and despite occasional juvenile taunts, she only sees it as a part of him. ![]() What is also so powerful about this scene is that you may hope his daughter takes empathy from the situation as he allows her to see him be vulnerable despite the verbal bashing. Her harshness feeds into his own internal voice. For a character that presents himself as being everyone’s friend in the centre, and builds himself on sarcastic, joyful humour to detach himself from the situation to see him physically retire into himself is reflective of how it feels inside to emotionally crumble as your mind becomes overpowering. Notably, Craig observes this through the blurred glass of the doors the shrills of Bobby’s ex echoing through the halls as you physically see him fold. It suggests that your mental health should be ‘fixed’ as you age, and having this belittling occur in front of his young child only adds insult to injury. In addition to this, his daughter’s mum is patronizing of his mental state and is cruel and abusive. Due to Bobby’s decline in his mental health, it takes a knocking onto his personal life including financial implications which means he cannot afford an apartment or give a place for his daughter to come to stay with him. The disparity between Bobby and Craig’s healing over that week is an incredibly relevant contextual point to make. The humour in the film is a reminder that mental health is not a complete blanket gloom, it fades in and out of severity and where there is dark, there is also light. There are also other members of the ward whose interactions have a profound impact on the teen as he comes to terms with the validation of his own mental health, gaining compassion and understanding for others suffering – but also looking on the lighter side of it. The other significant characters in the film are Bobby (Zack Gaflinkas) who is a regular patient on the ward after trying to commit suicide for the 6 th time, and Noelle (Emma Roberts), another teenage patient who is in for self-harm, become a part of Craig’s stay. ![]() It allows the word to grow a presence in the comfortable silence the viewer is feeling, it allows them not to be afraid of the term and any similar subsequent terminology that is used. The subject is dealt with sensitively and pragmatically, in which Craig is asked to fill out a doctor’s form detailing is admittance, and essentially expects him to relay his suicidal emotions in simple terms. What the film nails from the offset is the dealing of suicide a taboo word that usually sparks tepid fear into most, and understandably a trigger word for some. After a wave of fear and regret, he tries to leave but finds out that he legally must stay for five days until medical signs him off. With the teenage wing being closed, Craig is placed in the adult facility. To those who are unfamiliar with the film, It’s Kind of a Funny Story is the tale of Craig Gilner (Keir Gilchrist), a 16-year-old boy from New York who checks himself into a mental health facility after contemplating attempting suicide, in which he envisions jumping off a bridge into traffic under the observation of his family. Screenshotted quotes from the film had filtered through into Tumblr hashtags of #depression, #suicide #mentalhealth – which is where this small demographic of teenage digital natives embraced the film like an old friend that prematurely understood the nuances and non-simplistic nature of mental health, for it would not be for years to come until the government, businesses and society started to open up to the severity of the world’s mental health crisis. However, for a niche group of us, there was this immediate connection with the premise of it. It was snuffed at by critics and given minimal press coverage, which is an occurrence when it was a phenomenal year for quality cinema. The missing link in these, however, is looking at it from a teenage perspective.įor our focal piece: It’s Kind of a Funny Story, a small indie film emerging in the decade, had quite a prolific cast still freshly settling into Hollywood but felt very much brushed under the carpet. From looking at body imagery in Black Swan, exploring the darker side of institutions in Shutter Island and the pressures of social anxiety in The King’s Speech – these films helped to pave the way for more serious cinematic exploration of mental illness in society, in history and from an industry perspective. It was a year where mental health started to slowly creep into the eyes of the media and film, in a way that focused upon adults and the pressures that started to face them a decade into the new century.

Adobe stock plummets secondworst in decade11/21/2023 ![]() The Shanghai Composite entered a bear market in June and has now declined nearly 25% since the start of the year. The market damage this year was most pronounced in China, where the world’s second largest economy is feeling the effects of a darkening trade outlook and government attempts to rein in risky lending after a rapid rise in debt levels. It’s the index’s worst performance since the global financial crisis, and a sharp reversal from a gain of nearly 25% in 2017. The FTSE All-World index, which tracks thousands of stocks across a range of markets, plummeted 12% this year. It had closed as high as $77.41 a barrel in late June, falling 41.3% from that peak.īrexit’s impact on the United Kingdom and Europe also worried investors, as did a slowdown in the Chinese economy.

On Friday, the Dow rose 265 points for the day. ![]() Volatility was been driven by signs of a global economic slowdown, concerns about monetary policy, political dysfunction, inflation fears and worries about increased regulation of the technology sector. The Dow has swung 1,000 points in a single session only eight times in its history, and five of those took place in 2018. The VIX volatility index spiked, and CNN Business’ Fear & Greed Index has been stuck in “Extreme Fear” throughout much of the year. The Dow also closed more than 1,000 points higher on December 26 - the first time it ever accomplished that feat.īut 2018 will be remembered for its extreme volatility.

Bearded dragon egg incubator11/21/2023 ![]() However, what you put the eggs in after they are laid is a little more important. Anything from vermiculite to organic potting soil can be used as a substrate for egg deposition. If your female is getting ready to drop eggs, having the lay box set up ahead of time is a good idea. Last time we talked about preferred medium for egg laying. I always label the container (either with a makeshift sticky tag, or directly on the lid) as soon as I get done cupping the eggs. It’s easy to forget the lay date even when you only have one dragon’s eggs to keep track of. ![]() Regardless of which type of receptacle you choose, remember that proper labeling is important. You can then put each clutch in its own container without having to worry about keeping track of multiple smaller cups. This is sometimes helpful if you have more than one female. Larger deli cups or other ventilated containers can also be used if you prefer to put all of your eggs in one container. I have found that you can easily fit 5-6 into each deli cup. The 8 oz cups that come in the incubator specials (described later) are perfect for dragon eggs. Deli cups-those with pre-punched holes-are readily available, and easy to use. If you only have one dragon’s eggs to worry about, a smaller incubator and smaller containers are probably the easiest. ![]() A lot of it depends on the size of the clutch and the size of the incubator. If you follow a few simple instructions, you should be on your way to whipping up a batch of dragons.Ī simple, yet important, aspect of incubation is what to put the eggs in. Luckily, incubating beardie eggs is about as easy as using an Easy Bake Oven. In this issue, we’ll try and relieve some of those worries by going over some tips and techniques that will help those of you first time dragon breeders. While incubation requires the least amount of action on your part, it can in some ways be the most nail-biting aspect of breeding reptiles. With any luck, your breeding endeavors have so far been fruitful, and you are preparing for a clutch of eggs. In the May issue of the Reptile Times we discussed maternal care of gravid bearded dragons, from conception to laying.

Using excessive marinade and applying BBQ sauce too early in the grilling process can result in the sugar burning causing a dark color and sometimes an off-putting taste. If you’re using a marinade, try to get as much liquid off as possible before placing the food on the grill and if using a BBQ sauce, wait until the last 5-10 minutes of grilling before applying it to your food. Rust prevention – Make sure to clean your grates before each use. As you continue to use and clean your grates you will break them in reducing the amount of sticking.
