![]() Its 166 minutes are packed with so many superfluous bits of Rowling's text that many of the book's most meaty dramatic scenes are left feeling rushed. Having said all that, Chamber of Secrets is not a perfect film. There is also a more palpable sense of danger to the action, with the surreal visions that haunt Harry being more visceral and frightening than anything seen in 'Sorcerer's Stone.' Even the recycling of the same action setpiece - the famous Quidditch match - is more suspenseful and far better executed in terms of special effects. Though the sets are the same as the first time around (a nice benefit of the back-to-back shooting approach), there are more dark corners hiding at the edges of the frame, with new director of photography Roger Pratt painting his shots with a grimier palette. ![]() Rowling also fleshes out the roles of the adult characters, integrating them into the story to surprisingly resonant effect, particularly Robbie Coltrane's Hagrid and Richard Harris' Dumbledore, both of whom will eventually become mentors (of very different kinds) for Harry.Įven better, Columbus and his team of filmmaking wizards finally begin to let a bit of darkness creep into the visuals of Chamber of Secrets. Likewise, Harry's relationships with Hermione (Emma Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint) will grow more intertwined and more rich with emotion, offering tantalizing hints at future complications to come. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) will learn a host of new powers, but he'll also get into more trouble - Rowling is particularly adept at using magic as a counterpoint to adolescence. As Rowling would continue to do with each of the installments in the series, Chamber of Secrets repeats many of the same basic scenarios and thematic motifs from the first story, but adds new layers of depth by revealing new secrets. The narrative twists and turns of Chamber of Secrets don't get anywhere near as dark as Rowling's later installments, but the movie still tones down the family-friendly excesses of Sorcerer's Stone to positive effect. But if the huge weight of tackling the very first big-screen Potter left Columbus and Kloves a bit too focused on cramming in every last magical cranny of Rowling's text, with Chamber of Secrets they are, if not completely liberated, than certainly far more confident to move beyond a simple carbon copy of the book in celluloid form. Director Chris Columbus returns, as does screenwriter Steve Kloves and all of the cast. Shot back-to-back with Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets features most of the same creative personnel as its predecessor. Although I wouldn't call it the best Harry Potter movie, it certainly steered the series in the right direction. Superior in all respects to the first film (which was wasn't bad in and of itself), Chamber of Secrets is more fun, more fanciful, and more engaging. Sealed or unopened items will not be accepted back if you open them.If Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stonewas the get-it-out-of-the-way first chapter in the series that had to set everything up, then Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is the one where the filmmakers could finally let loose and just tell a great story.

![]() ![]() If you're in the market for a do-it-all, go anywhere speaker, the MEGABOOM is it. Throw an EQ at it to really dial in this sound you want, and this thing will absolutely blow your mind. It's got a great balance, and has some of the best "natural" sound (read: without the help of a software EQ) that I've ever heard from a BT speaker. Bass is resonant and distinguishable, but not overbearing. Ultimate Ears has once again hit a home run, as the MEGABOOM is one of the best-sounding Bluetooth speakers I've ever heard, and, in my opinion, is completely unmatched at this price point. Not only did it live up to my expectations, but it surpassed them. I expected big, clear sound, even at high volume. So, in short, I had expectations for the MEGABOOM. It's a little bit different with the MEGABOOM, because I have already spent time with the MiniBOOM and BOOM, and even chosen the latter as my "daily driver" in the speaker world. Most of the time when I review speakers, it's my first time using anything from that brand or speaker line. Definitely a great feature for parties and whatnot when two BOOMs/MEGABOOMs are available. And since the speakers are synced together once Double Up is set up, you can control the volume of both just by changing it on one speaker. ![]() I tested it out with another BOOM, and it worked perfectly. With the MEGABOOM's predecessors, you had to have two identical speakers to use Double Up (two BOOMs or two MiniBOOMs), but the MEGABOOM can pair up with either another MEGABOOM or a BOOM. While this isn't the first time we've seen Double Up (both the BOOM and MiniBOOM have it, as well), it does introduce something new: cross-speaker compatibility. Probably the coolest feature of the MEGABOOM app, however, is Double Up. ![]() Since the MEGABOOM uses Bluetooth Smart and BT 4.0, you can also remotely turn the speaker off (but not on, unfortunately or maybe you can.I just can't get it to work got it - it just takes a bit for the power button to show up in the app) from the app. This is where the EQ is controlled, the speaker can be renamed, sounds can be toggled, and more. Like the BOOM and MiniBOOM, the MEGABOOM has a companion app that allows users to do some pretty cool stuff with their speaker, as well as enabling some unique and useful features. Top all that off with Ultimate Ears' unprecedented two-year warranty (almost every other speaker on the market only carries a one-year warranty), and you've got a speaker that not only sounds good, but is up for any challenge you can throw at it. This speaker is a complete beast across the board: it's waterproof (IPx7), has a 20-hour battery, and sounds killer to boot. I'm loving the recent trend of multiple-sized speakers from within the same family, and I had high expectations from a speaker carrying the BOOM name. Naturally, when Ultimate Ears announced the MEGABOOM at CES, I had to jump in line to check it out. Sure, there are more robust speakers (like the Fugoo speaker), and there are even speakers that sound better (like the Bose SoundLink Mini, which is amazing for the size), but when it comes to one do-it-all monster, the BOOM is it. To this day, in terms of portability, form factor, and sound quality, I don't think you can get a better all-around package. When I reviewed the Ultimate Ears BOOM back in July of 2013, it quickly became my favorite portable speaker, and held that title all throughout last year. ![]() ![]() ![]() if you really liked everything all then guys don’t forget to share with your friends and keep supportThanks for visiting our website.

Mobile Drip, which debuted in February, says it allows customers to use its platform to send pre-written messages that autoreplies with the next message and broadcasts messages - where the customer sends a single message in bulk.

The database is run by an outfit called ApexSMS. “This incident raises the issue once again that data security can affect legitimate businesses and what many would consider ‘gray marketing’ at best,” said Diachenko. By coincidence, the server was pulled offline before we could reach out, but we still had time to look at the inner workings of the SMS spam operation.Īnd we knew exactly whom to contact - because the spam operators’ email addresses were listed as “admins” in the database.

AutoText typing assistant that works in any software ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My family had built a library of some 90 issues by the time I began to read them, tattered from decades of swapping between cousins. Like many other Indian diaspora kids, my mother brought her own collection when she immigrated to the United States as a 9-year-old in 1973. Yet millions of children-myself included-revered “Uncle Pai” for creating a popular avenue to an Indian heritage, however limited. Consequently, ACK reinforced many of the most problematic tenets of Hindu nationalism-tenets that partially drive the platform of India’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, currently under fire domestically and internationally for policies and rhetoric targeting religious minorities and lower castes. On top of that, his comics often erased non-Hindu subjects from India’s historic and religious fabric. ACK’s writing and illustrative team ( led by Pai as the primary “storyteller”) constructed a legendary past for India by tying masculinity, Hinduism, fair skin, and high caste to authority, excellence, and virtue. ![]() Even within this crowded field, ACK remained beloved and novel for both its edutainment value and its role as the grandfather of an industry.Īnd yet, since its debut in 1967, ACK has also helped supply impressionable generations of middle-class children a vision of “immortal” Indian identity wedded to prejudiced norms. ACK’s first successors were primarily Western-inspired action and adventure series, but by the 1990s Indian institutions like Diamond Comics and Raj Comics were publishing mysteries, funnies, and science-fiction works. ACK was the first major indigenous comic-book series to sell within India, and its success also heralded the development of a broader domestic comics industry. Pai revolutionized children’s entertainment as much as he did religious education. Today, the series has sold 100 million-plus copies of more than 400 comics in upwards of 20 languages, primarily English and Hindi. While schools and shopkeepers initially hesitated to stock the issues, ACK was a household name in India by the late 1970s. The comics, titled Amar Chitra Katha (also known as ACK, or Immortal Illustrated Stories), slowly became a massive hit. He eventually teamed up with the publisher India Book House to launch an educational comic series that presented kid-friendly Indian religious and historical stories. Concerned that young people in his country had lost touch with their cultural heritage, Pai acted. Fifty years ago, a junior executive at the Times of India named Anant Pai watched Indian children on a TV quiz show fail to answer a basic question about the Hindu epic Ramayana. ![]() |
