Blame ABC Family for playing Sorcerer’s Stone on repeat throughout the 2000s, but for many Millennials (and now, their children) a chill in the air demands curling up on the couch for a Harry Potter rewatch.
While millions of viewers used to take comfort in visits to Hogwarts, these days, engaging with the series can be complicated. Harry Potter taught so many about the importance of fighting against prejudice, which makes creator J.K. Rowling’s controversial comments on gender identity all the more disappointing. Even some of her most ardent fans accused her of transphobia, at which point Rowling doubled down on her exclusionary brand of feminism. Now, many fans strive to find a way to derive value from the material while rejecting its creator’s views.
Even Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe, who spoke out against Rowling’s anti-trans tweets, has wrestled with whether the story is irredeemably tarnished. In an open letter for the Trevor Project, he wrote, “If these books taught you that love is the strongest force in the universe … if they taught you that strength is found in diversity, and that dogmatic ideas of pureness lead to the oppression of vulnerable groups; if you believe that a particular character is trans, nonbinary, or gender fluid, or that they are gay or bisexual … then that is between you and the book that you read, and it is sacred. And in my opinion nobody can touch that.” For many, the annual rewatch remains a tradition, albeit a fraught one.
And so, we find ourselves reassessing these adaptations, all eight of which are streaming on both Peacock and HBO Max as of Oct. 15. Typically, fans agree on favorites in a film series. Most Star Wars diehards will tell you Empire Strikes Back is great, and Phantom Menace sucks; Indiana Jones fans will assure you that none of the sequels lived up to Raiders of the Lost Ark; and anyone who argues Dark Knight isn’t the best of the Batman movies is just trying to be contrarian. Rational minds can certainly disagree. But for the most part, every franchise has good movies and bad movies, and it’s easy to divide films into those two buckets.
The Harry Potter films prove more difficult to rank. True, the awful new Fantastic Beasts movies will easily land at the bottom of any Potter fan’s list (spoiler alert). But the older films are surprisingly solid. Look up fan polls and critics’ rankings, and you’ll find there’s no consensus view on how the original eight films compare. Some fans prefer the glee of those first movies, while others trend towards the darker entries later in the franchise. Movie fans may love the cinematography of Half-Blood Prince, while book loyalists take umbrage with director David Yates’ adaptation choices. Some critics preferred the quiet, contemplative moments spent in the forest during Deathly Hallows, Part 1, while others favor the action-packed battles of Deathly Hallows, Part 2.
Many fans’ views have also evolved with the passage of time. It’s easier to assess the series as a whole now that the movies have become a true cultural touchstone. And Rowling’s commentary, political views and additions to the canon will no doubt influence any critic’s perception of the films, for better or worse. Here is how we rank the Harry Potter films—at least for now.
10. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
Zoë Kravitz and Johnny Depp in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald embodies everything wrong with the continued expansion of the Harry Potter universe. The Harry Potter prequel could have explored a whole new corner of the wondrous world Rowling once built. Instead Grindelwald plays like a cash grab. Rowling’s script tries to connect just about every new character it introduces in some forced, hackneyed and occasionally racist way to the characters we know and love from the original Harry Potter films. But the revelation that one character will eventually become a snake or that another is a long-lost relative of Albus Dumbledore only muddles the canon.
Meanwhile, the one person the audience does recognize and care about—young Dumbledore, played enchantingly by Jude Law—gets the short shrift. Despite insisting in interviews that Dumbledore and the Hitler-esque wizard Gellert Grindelwald were romantically involved as teens, Rowling has never actually written that romance into any of her books or screenplays. Crimes of Grindelwald centers on a proxy battle between Dumbledore and Grindelwald but only vaguely references that the two might have had a romantic relationship. Rowling’s refusal to acknowledge that these two men are queer and have a complicated history is maddening. It zaps the film of any real tension between its main hero and villain. Meanwhile, offscreen, Rowling’s insistence that Grindelwald actor Johnny Depp remain with the franchise after his ex-wife Amber Heard accused Depp of assault, was off-putting to say the least. Since then, a high court judge found that Johnny Depp was guilty of assaulting Heard, and Warner Bros. finally parted ways with the actor. Still, the ill-fated series will soldier on.

9. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
Jaap Buitendijk—Warner Bros.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was Rowling’s first screenplay, and it shows. If you squint, there’s a good movie within Fantastic Beasts about the rise of fascism in the Wizarding World in the 1920s. Unfortunately, studios have to sell stuffed animals. So Fantastic Beasts wraps its dark Grindelwald origin story inside a movie about a dorky magical creature enthusiast (Eddie Redmayne) scurrying across 1920s New York City trying to round up adorable critters. The platypus-esque Nifflers are, undeniably, cute, and the other CGI creatures are quite impressive. But the bipolar movie never quite ties the two plots together.
There’s hope that Rowling could rectify this issue in future films. One of Rowling’s best talents is actually intricate plotting—the early Harry Potter books and their adaptations would often weave plots together to make a more cohesive whole. The author would patiently plant the seeds of a plot point in an early novel that would then bloom in the later books to stunning effect. Perhaps it’s unfair to judge Fantastic Beasts on just the first two entries (the studio intends to produce five films). But so far the franchise has failed to cast a spell over its audience.
8. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Kenneth Branagh as Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets released on Nov. 15, 2002.
Let me be clear: There is a giant chasm between Chamber of Secrets and the Fantastic Beast films. While Chamber may rank low on this list, it’s still a delightful time at Hogwarts. Hermione turns into a cat person! Harry and Ron fly in a car! Kenneth Branagh pokes fun at his own public persona as a narcissist! Sure, child actors Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint haven’t quite yet mastered their acting skills. But they’re pretty cute.
And yet, the movie clocks in at 160 minutes, far too long for one of the shorter and, let’s be honest, lesser Harry Potter books. The pace of the film is, at times, agonizingly slow. Like Sorcerer’s Stone, Chris Columbus’ Chamber is slavishly dedicated to the book—except for the bizarre moment when Lucius Malfoy attempts to use the killing curse “avada kedavra” on Harry in the middle of a Hogwarts hallway. (Apparently Lucius Malfoy actor Jason Isaacs improvised the line and had forgotten the actual meaning of the curse.) In transcribing the work rather than adapting it, Columbus undercuts a sense of discovery that is essential to the Potter stories.
7. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone

Though it’s probably the truest book-to-movie adaptation, the Sorcerer’s Stone, with its Matilda-esque tone, doesn’t live up to the power of the rest of the series. In retrospect, the CGI is clunky, and the one-liners are too cute by half. Still, Christopher Columbus was also able to capture, well, the magic of that first introduction into Hogwarts. As soon as those owls begin to invade the Dursley’s neighborhood, the Wizarding World suddenly seemed more accessible than it ever did on the page.
At the time of its premiere, Sorcerer’s success was no guarantee. Throughout the 2000s, fantasy adaptations like The Golden Compass and Eragon flopped at the box office. But Columbus’ movies managed to do right by the books: Hogwarts awed; quidditch looked exactly as fans had imagined it; and the school uniforms became instantly iconic. Columbus’ team also made some fantastic casting decisions that would pay off years later, like recruiting Alan Rickman to play Severus Snape and Maggie Smith to tackle Minerva McGonagall. And they found a trio of child actors who would, over the next decade, hold their own in scenes with some of England’s most talented thespians.
6. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1
Emma Watson in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1, 2010.
Ah, Deathly Hallows, Part 1: perhaps the most divisive movie in the franchise. How do you feel about watching three teenagers bicker in the forest for a few hours? What if two of those characters take a dance break seemingly designed to enrage or tantalize fans, depending on which characters you ship?
There are things to adore in this movie, like the breathtaking animation of the “Tale of the Three Brothers.” And director David Yates does beautifully capture the frustrations of Harry’s Horcrux mission. The scenes in which Harry, Ron and Hermione aimlessly walk through empty fields and abandoned parking lots, a fuzzy voice on the radio rattling off the names of the dead as they wander capture the book perfectly.
But Part 1 spends very little time during those quiet conversations exploring who Dumbledore was and his connection to the Deathly Hallows, three magical tools that are crucial to the final fight in the following film. That may seem like nerdy nitpicking. But good genre fiction distinguishes itself from bad genre fiction by imbuing its McGuffins with actual meaning. If Harry doesn’t have a personal connection to the Elderwand through Dumbledore, then he’s just chasing some meaningless shiny object. Such scenes also could have given the audience more time with Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort, who shines in Part 2 as one of the greatest onscreen villains of all time.
5. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince released on July 15, 2009.
Book fans tend to criticize the Half-Blood Prince adaptation because it leaves out crucial details about Tom Riddle (a.k.a. Voldemort) and why he decides to create the Horcruxes. As a result, the burden falls upon the already plot-heavy sequels to communicate the importance of these magical objects. It’s frustrating to watch Harry hunt down and destroy parts of Tom Riddle’s soul like he’s stumbling across random Bosses in a video game when Rowling gave each Horcrux a meaningful backstory in the books that rendered Voldemort a more complex character.
More than any other movie, Half-Blood Prince seems to miss the point of the books. Take the pivotal scene in which Snape kills Dumbledore. Although Harry’s single defining trait as a character is his willingness to rush rashly and headlong into danger for his loved ones, the movie-version of Harry stands by and does nothing while Dumbledore is murdered. In the book, Dumbledore has put Harry under a spell that prevents him from moving to interfere with Snape—a detail skipped over in the movie. Exacerbating matters is Michael Gambon’s performance as Dumbledore, which comes across as cold and commanding rather than gentle and eccentric.
Still, the cinematography in Half-Blood Prince is fantastic. Yates signals the transition to a grimmer story by rendering Hogwarts as darker and more empty than in previous films. It’s arguably the most aesthetically beautiful of all the movies. And many critics have praised the slower pace of the film, which spends less time on Quidditch and magical battles and more time on character relationships than its predecessors.
4. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2
Alan Rickman in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2
Warner Bros Pictures
Deathly Hallows, Part 2 is all action. As soon as the movie begins, Harry, Ron and Hermione are breaking into Gringotts, riding on the back of a dragon and, finally, battling Voldemort. That’s not always a good thing: The audience is barely given a moment to breathe and consider the consequences of this final battle. Book readers will certainly miss some of the quieter moments of reflection, particularly between Harry and Dumbledore at King’s Cross Station after Harry dies.
But the film is able to pull off several crucial moments of character development amid the chaos, including Neville’s evolution into a bold hero, Ron and Hermione’s first kiss and Molly Weasley’s epic defeat of Bellatrix LeStrange. To that end, the film plays like a somber but satisfying reunion. Deathly Hallows Part 1, and even to some extent Half-Blood Prince, are films about loneliness and isolation. Some of the most beloved characters in the Harry Potter series are missing entirely from those movies. When Harry, Ron and Hermione return to Hogwarts, we get to enjoy Rowling’s wide array of Dickensian characters once again.
And the movie more than makes up for any elided conversations with the emotional punch of Alan Rickman’s performance as Snape. The series’ finale hinges on Rickman’s ability to sell the audience on the idea that his love for Harry’s mother Lily was so strong that he took on the impossible job of playing double agent. And while the books are told almost entirely from Harry’s perspective, Yates wisely chooses to offer his audience Snape’s point of view: He begins the film with shot of Snape gazing over Hogwarts and pauses to linger on Snape’s face as he dies weeping in Harry’s arms. In those two moments, elevates the story from a battle between good and evil to one of a complicated man’s struggle to cling to the power of love in the face of hatred.
3. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe in "Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire"
Warner Bros.—courtesy Everett Collection
It’s unfortunate the movie version of Goblet of Fire doesn’t fall at the top of the heap when the book version ranks #1 or #2 for many Potter fans. But director Mike Newell made some irksome choices that diverge wildly from the original text, including, notoriously, Dumbledore screaming at Harry, “Did you put your name in the goblet of fire?!?” a line that Dumbledore uttered “calmly” in the book. Worse still, Goblet is at its heart a mystery novel, but the adaptation undercuts the whodunnit at the center of the story—who did put Harry’s name in the Goblet of Fire?—by showing the culprit in the very first scene.
That said, it’s pretty hard to screw up Rowling’s best story. Goblet breaks from the formula of the last three books, centering the action around the Triwizard Tournament instead of the normal events school year. The three terrifying tasks are a joy to behold, and the angst-producing Yule Ball plays host to some of the most fraught—and delicious—teen drama in the series.
The movie also successfully balances the fun of the tournament with the gravity of Cedric’s death, a major turning point in the franchise. A young Robert Pattinson proves his star power in the small but consequential role. And as Cedric’s father mourns over his body, even non-readers realize the story is about to transform from a boarding school romp into a deadly battle between tolerance and prejudice. Plus, Ralph Fiennes’ inaugural performance as He Who Must Not Be Named is appropriately terrifying and wonderful.
2. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Michael Gambon as Albus Dumbledore in "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix."
The book Order of the Phoenix often gets knocked for its preoccupation with hormonal teenagers’ mood swings. But that’s the brilliance of the story. Our heroes are hormonal teenagers who make bad decisions based on impulse. The book does force readers to spend a lot of time inside Harry’s head when he’s at his most angry. The movie actually spares the audience this unpleasantness. Because of medium, we only see Harry’s external reactions, and Radcliffe smartly chooses to play Harry as defeated and depressed, a decision that engenders sympathy rather than alienating the audience. Harry only shares his darkest fears about something evil burgeoning inside him in intimate scenes with his godfather Sirius, which makes Sirius’ sudden and surprising death at the end of the film all the more painful.
Other things that recommend Order of the Phoenix: Quieter conversations that plumb the characters’ emotional depths; nightmare-inducing performances by two of the series’ best late-game villains, Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix and Imelda Staunton as Dolores Umbridge; and no quidditch, a game that was getting deadly boring by the second film. But the best part of this movie is the epic final showdown in the Department of Mysteries between Dumbledore and Voldemort. That battle—the only one we get to see between the two greatest wizards in history—takes plenty of license but does so in the best way possible. The clash of fire and water and transformation of glass into sand encapsulate the power of film adapation.
1. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Alan Rickman, and Daniel Radcliffe in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Warner Bros/Everett Collection
It’s no surprise that Academy Award winner Alfonso Cuarón directed the best of the Harry Potter flicks. Some might call Prisoner of Azkaban more “adult” than the first two movies. And while we’re of the philosophy that anyone can enjoy and appreciate Harry Potter, it’s certainly fair to say that Cuarón made a more atmospheric movie. He clearly has a talent for working with child actors: The director allowed them to style their school uniforms however they liked, adding a realistic and lived-in feeling to the film. His eye for detail also brings Hogwarts truly to life for the first time, from the candles that look like spinal columns floating in Professor Lupin’s classroom to the reimagined Whomping Willow, which marks the passage of time by huffily shaking off its leaves in autumn.
There are a few choices to quibble with: Deciding not to film a flashback scene featuring Harry’s father and his friends prowling the Hogwarts grounds as Animagi (wizards who can transform into animals) was a missed opportunity. And Cuarón may have unwittingly given away Snape’s allegiance when he directed Alan Rickman to throw his arms across Harry and his friends to protect them from a werewolf, an impulsive act of selflessness that seemed uncharacteristic for the snarling professor. And the Time Turners introduce thousands of questions and plot holes. But all those choices serve a final time traveling sequence that, with the giant clock ticking away in the background, is pitch perfect.
Correction, Nov. 3
The original version of this story misstated when the movies The Golden Compass and Eragon premiered. They debuted after The Sorcerer’s Stone film was released, not before.

As of June 2022, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" (2011) was the highest-grossing movie of the Harry Potter film series.Why is Harry better in Slytherin? ›
Harry Potter came very close to being sorted into Slytherin before he persuaded the Hat to sort him into Gryffindor. Yet the spectre of Slytherin haunted him for some time afterwards, becoming particularly potent in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, when he was rumoured to be the heir of Slytherin.What age is Harry Potter good for? ›
But there are a few age-related guidelines to take into consideration: From a technical standpoint, Harry Potter is categorized as a middle-grade read, which typically encompasses 9–to–12-year-olds.
Why is Harry Potter the strongest? ›
First, there is his native power. Harry is incredibly, natively powerful. He can perform advanced magic at an early age at greater levels than we see done by any other wizard (for example when he blasts the dementors away with his Patroness in the third book).

Cheetah Experience reviews
What a awesome place. Well maintained. Our Nicetour guides were very friendly and informative. We loved visiting this park. more »
This was my first experience as a volunteer working with animals. With the help of staff, I soon knew more about cheetahs and other cats than I thought possible. The staff is truely amazing. It is..... more »
One of the best places in the world. A place where all people are smiling and loving what they are doing. You can feel the love, passion and dedication of the stuff members for all the animals. We had one of the best vacation/volunteer experience in our life. We never expected to get this close to these majestic animals. However, to get really close to the animals you need to join the volunteer program and contribute to wild life conservation. This is not a petting zoo were animals are exploited for a quick Holiday-selfie. Here the animals get the respect they deserve. You can rather have an all-inclusive vacation in some autocratic countries or you come here and do something useful and get an experience you will never forget! Thanks to all our new friends we made here and especially the stuff members for such a great time. Hope we will meet again soon!
An interesting visit, with lots of new information and opportunities to come up close to the animals. The owners obviously care for their animals, with enrichment activities and such. The animals certainly seem well cared for. That been said, they have a rather eclectic collection of animals there. Lions and cheetahs are local, but the wolves and tiger (although interesting and beautiful in their own right) left me scratching my head. All considered they are certainly worth a visit, just not an "authentic local experience".

The client came with a vision for a new idea of a community café in Qatar. The challenge was to develop an entire concept from the naming, branding and retail store interior. We were also asked to create an experience that caters to the habits of the local community while also introducing a feeling of community space that an artist would feel at home in to generate ideas.
The name we chose was Kalo Kitchen, Kalo meaning ‘good’ in Greek. The brand we created is very simple, and portrays a rustic look and feel that the client requested. As well as a space that inspires budding artists, and gives them an opportunity to exhibit their work, the café also promotes home made delicacies.

- Despite a strong sequential recovery, revenues are still down from last year as trade uncertainty and currency movements lead to price erosion bite.
- After the quarter, things have taken a turn for the worse again on escalating trade tensions and it’s difficult to see this ending anytime soon.
- However, the underlying health of the company is strong, as are its competitive position and balance sheet.

The Russian T-90 is a third-generation main battle tank and represents a moderate evolution of the T-72B, incorporating many features of the T-80U. It is currently the most advanced tank in service with the Russian Ground Forces and Naval Infantry. The T-90 uses a 125 mm 2A46 smoothbore main gun, the 1A45T fire-control system, an uprated engine, and thermal sights. It was designed and built by Uralvagonzavod, in Nizhny Tagil, Russia. Since 2011, the Russian armed forces have ceased any further orders for the T-90, and are instead anticipating the development of the T-14 Armata that is expected to enter service in 2016.

Investigators of this multicenter study evaluated long-term outcomes of a progressively enlarging prosthesis with dermis fat grafting for congenital anophthalmia.
This retrospective analysis comprised 20 patients with unilateral and 2 patients with bilateral congenital anophthalmia. Each received progressively enlarging cosmetic customized prostheses early after birth, followed by dermis fat graft for socket rehabilitation. Differences in vertical palpebral aperture (VPA) and horizontal palpebral length (HPL) between affected and unaffected eyes were measured at the first prosthesis fitting, as well as before and after dermis fat graft. Satisfaction with cosmetic results, prosthetic retention and complications were assessed. An MRI of the orbit was performed before and after dermis fat graft surgery.
This strategy for treatment of congenital anophthalmia resulted in a significant decrease in the difference between the normal and treated side in VPA and HPL. Families were "very satisfied" and physicians were "satisfied" with the results. Excellent prosthesis retention was observed in all cases.
The study has the common short-comings of a retrospective study. Ideally, this strategy would be compared in a randomized, prospective study to other treatment protocols for this condition. The use of more quantitative measurements such as ImageJ software and volume quantitation from the MRIs would provide more exact data.
Although a relatively rare condition, congenital anophthalmia and microphthalmia have been addressed by a number of treatment strategies, including expanding orbital implants and orbital expansion devices. This study supports the general consensus from physicians treating this condition that conservative expansion with conformers/prostheses followed by placement of a "living implant" (dermis fat graft) gives a satisfactory result. In addition, complications were rare and prosthesis retention was excellent.

Putting its experience and knowledge into practice, Nutrameg – the most successful health technologies startup in Latvia, has launched a special collaboration with the Children's Clinical University Hospital (Children's Hospital). Together with the Children's Hospital's dietary specialists, it has produced a book of healthy snack recipes for kids and families. The company has also donated EUR 10 000 to upgrade technical equipment in the Children's Hospital kitchen so that little patients can make delicious and healthy snacks on their own or with their parents using the recipes collected in the new book. Click here to read more and order!
"Nutrameg's mission is to promote a healthy lifestyle by developing personalized digital tools to encourage a healthy diet and sporting lifestyle.
In my opinion, it is imperative right from the earliest childhood to show kids how to make healthy choices, which is why Nutrameg came up with the idea of producing a book of healthy snack recipes. We have used the basic insights derived by the company's specialists using a special algorithm to analyze the nutritional and sporting habits of hundreds of millions of people to produce this new cookbook", explains Nutrameg founder Kristofs Blaus.
The book's co-authors are Children's Hospital dietary specialist Lizete Puga, Nutrameg certified dietary specialist Elina Balode, and Nutrameg dietary specialist and athlete Anna Paula Auzina. The first ones to try out the recipes included in the book were the Children's Hospital's little patients, who took part in a special masterclass conducted by the book's authors. During the event, kids could experiment by making snacks and discovering new flavours. Thanks to the Children's Hospital donation and the new cookbook, Nutrameg wants to inspire kids to make various delicious but healthy snacks on their own or with their parents.
"Nutrameg aims to foster a healthy future society, but we all know that both kids and grown-ups often like to indulge in eating snacks.
In preparing the book, our goal was to show that snacks can also be healthy and diverse. Healthy food choices are essential for children's initial stages of developing healthy lifestyle habits. Therefore, to improve children's eating habits, we spent several months working together with the hospital's doctors, sharing our knowledge and experience," explains Nutrameg expert, certified dietary specialist Elīna Balode, adding that other significant projects will be realized together with the specialists from the Children's Hospital in the near future.
You can buy this cookbook created by Nutrimeg dietary specialists in close collaboration with Children's Hospital specialists here. The book is available in English and Latvian.
Nutrameg is a health technologies startup using patented dietary technologies to help at least one billion people live healthier lives. Nutrameg's team comprises nutritional specialists, trainers, physiotherapists and technological engineers working on various innovative health technology applications for the Western European and North American markets.

The Game Awards Game Of The Year Winner, It Takes Two, Has Sold 5 Million Copies
It Takes Two was released by Hazelight last March, published as an EA Originals title. Its director, Josef Fares, is perhaps best known for his dislike of The Academy Awards and you might have seen him on The Game Awards stage last December. That’s because he accepted the Game of the Year award that night.
Fares is likely still riding the high of that win, but today, news released that’s sure to keep him smiling. Hazelight Studios’ official Twitter account revealed that It Takes Two has sold five million copies.
“5…that’s FIVE million copies of It Takes Two sold,” the tweet reads. “Our team is absolutely stunned just thinking about how many players have now enjoyed our game.”
5… that’s FIVE million copies of #ItTakesTwo ￼sold! 😳💥🥳— Hazelight Studios (@HazelightGames) February 4, 2022
Our team is absolutely stunned just thinking about how many players have now enjoyed our game! 😍
Having sold five million copies, It Takes Two is now Hazelight Studios’ most popular game, beating out A Way Out’s 3.5 million copies sold, as reported by GameSpot.
It Takes Two being this successful isn’t much of a surprise – the game’s great! Game Informer gave it a 9.25 out of 10 and you can read that review here. Hazelight Studios seems set on capitalizing on the game’s success, too, as it recently announced a film and television adaptation is in the works.
While waiting for that, check out where It Takes Two falls on Game Informer’s top 10 games of 2021 list, and then read this feature about It Takes Two’s creator on love, endings, and a $1000 pledge.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs said Thursday that fans are now prohibited from wearing Native American headdresses into the stadium, and there are some restrictions in place for face paint.
The moves were welcomed by Chiefs superfan Connie Jo Gillespie.
At her Grandview home, you’ll find memorabilia related to her favorite team almost everywhere you look. She was one of the fans who helped bring the Guinness Book of World Records to town proclaiming Arrowhead the loudest stadium in the world.
“Being a Chiefs fan is not just a once a week hobby for me. It’s a lifestyle,” Gillespie said.
But there’s another part of her lifestyle she’s proud of, having grandparents who were East Woodland Shawnee, Canadian Cree and Mississippi Chickasaw.
“Each feather in that headdress is earned through an act of courage bravery personal sacrifice for his people. When I see a fan wear a headdress, I have to admit it turns my stomach just a little bit,” Gillespie said.
The team also announced its engaged in a thorough review of “the chop,” something Gillespie said she doesn’t have a problem with as long as fans aren’t dressed as Native Americans.
The announcement came with no mention of possibly changing the team name.
Gillespie said the numerous American Indians she’s spoken with agree and support the measures the Chiefs have taken the past six years since they expanded a dialogue with tribal leaders.
“There’s opportunities there to culturally educate, so that people who are not familiar with our culture learn to respect our culture and then they don’t want to appropriate it,” she said.
The team also said it’s exploring a more formal education program about American Indians with local and national partners.

A prostate cancer biopsy protocol based on targeted MRI rather than systemic ultrasound shows promise for reducing overdiagnosis by half, according to study results published December 8 in the New England Journal of Medicine.
"[The targeted MRI biopsy] strategy is sharply reducing the number of people who need to undergo tissue sampling, which is an unpleasant procedure with an associated risk of infection," study lead author Dr. Jonas Hugosson, PhD, of the University of Gothenburg said in a statement released by the university. "What's more, the strategy halves the risk of detecting a harmless tumor, which has been the biggest obstacle to introducing general screening for prostate cancer."
Many prostate cancers found on screening aren't clinically significant, which can lead to unnecessary treatment and thus increased risk of complications such as urinary incontinence and impotence, the group noted. Hugosson's team sought to assess the compare the performance of MRI-targeted biopsy for men with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and suspicious MRI results to systemic, ultrasound-guided biopsy.
The group conducted a study that included 17,980 men between the ages of 50 and 60 who underwent PSA screening. Those who had a PSA level of 3 ng per ml or higher then had an MRI exam of the prostate; a third of this group underwent systemic biopsy as well as MRI-targeted biopsy of any suspicious lesions found on MRI (reference group), while the remainder underwent MRI-targeted biopsy only (experimental group).
In the experimental group, 0.6% of patients were diagnosed with clinically insignificant prostate cancer, compared with 1.2% in the reference group -- a 50% reduction, Hugosson and colleagues noted. The team also found that relative risk of clinically significant prostate cancer in the experimental group was 0.81, compared with 0.6 in the reference group. Clinically significant cancer found only on systemic biopsy was diagnosed in 10 patients in the reference group, and all of these cases were intermediate risk, the team noted.
"The results show that the risk of finding an indolent (harmless) cancer was halved in the experimental group, while serious, potentially deadly cancers were found on an almost equal scale in both groups," the university said in its statement.
The study results suggest that MRI-target biopsy for screening and early detection of prostate cancer in men with elevated PSA and suspicious MRI results is a more tailored diagnostic option, according to the researchers.
"We must get away from the blind sampling of tissues that's still standard today, rely on the MRI examination, and thus switch diagnostics to taking samples only in those men in whom MRI has depicted tumors -- and then only do targeted samples in the area involved," Hugosson et al wrote.

A business needs to have certain types of insurance in place. Some of these insurances are imperative and some are mandated by law. Some are however not a legal requirement but it is better to have them to protect against unforeseen expenses and jeopardy. Here are the different types of business insurance that you would have to consider.
- The most important business insurance is general liability insurance. This kind of insurance protects you and your business from all liabilities. Should your workers get injured while doing their job, should your office infrastructure cause any harm to your workers or to the people who are using it, should there be any property damage or any sort of damage to a third party or even at your own business premises, there can be lawsuits, personal injury claims and various types of financial and legal damages that you would have to take care of. General liability insurance protects you in all such instances. You will be able to pay the legal fees, offer compensation and even repair the damages caused if it is to your business premises or property. Even if you are running a business from your home or garage, you need to have general liability insurance.
- Property insurance is another very important requisite. You may have a large office or a small one. You would have certain assets such as computers, furniture, office equipment and the inventory of products or a wide range of tools. You can protect all these assets with property insurance and you can protect the property itself. Should there be a fire, theft, water damage, smoke damage or vandalism, you would be able to make up for the lost assets and you would be able to pay for the repairs of the damages using the coverage of property insurance. Some business owners also opt for business interruption insurance, also known as loss of earning insurance, along with property insurance. When your property is damaged or your inventory is stolen or your equipments are malfunctioning, you would not be able to run or operate your business which will lead you to losses or at least no income. Business interruption insurance will protect you in such cases and you can keep repaying your debts or loans if you have any. You would also be able to keep paying the recurring costs of running the business.
- Instead of signing up for standalone insurance policies, some people prefer to get a business owner’s policy. A typical business owner’s policy would include property insurance, business interruption insurance, liability insurance, vehicle coverage and crime insurance. You can actually customize a business owner’s policy based on what you need and what is more important to you. Insurance premiums aren’t very cheap so opting for a combined policy like this one will save you a lot of money.
- If your business uses company cars or commercial vehicles, then those should be insured. Commercial auto insurance is imperative if you have even one car or vehicle owned by the company. If you don’t have any such cars, then you don’t really need commercial auto insurance. Should some of your employees have cars and use them for your business or for some purposes linked to your business then you can have non-owned auto liability. This would protect your company should the employee not have updated insurance or have insufficient coverage. You can add this non-owned auto liability to your business owner’s policy.
- Worker’s compensation is another very significant policy that a business should have in place. Even if a job is absolutely safe and the nature of a business or the industry it is in doesn’t pose any physical threat to the workers, there should still be worker’s compensation to safeguard against that one untoward incident which can become a huge financial liability. Workers’ compensation takes care of the medical expenses of those who get injured on the job, their wages are taken care of and they can be provided with financial benefits, short term and long term.
- E&O insurance has become significant in recent years. Known as errors and omissions insurance or simply as professional liability insurance, this type of policy offers protection against damages, lawsuits and financial claims should a company fail to deliver a certain service or should its products end up being faulty. Such type of coverage is not included in general liability insurance so it must be opted for separately. This insurance is much like the bond that families of patients needing critical operations sign, thus allowing the doctor or the surgeon to be not exposed to damages and claims should the operation go wrong. All companies don’t need this insurance but accountants, lawyers, consultants, insurance agents, technology companies, hair salons and the likes should always have it.
Some other types of insurance that you may consider are directors and officers insurance, data breach insurance and all your personal insurances.
The cost of business insurance varies. What type of business it is, who the insurer is, the coverage needed and the various consequential clauses and exemptions; all of these factors and more would come into play to determine the premiums.

It was in the creation of the iTunes Music Store that Jobs' personality and negotiating style really made a difference. Labels at the time saw the iPod as a way to listen to illegally downloaded music on the go. They were casting about for a legitimate way to sell music digitally, and all their internally built efforts were failing.
Given the desperation in the air, Jobs didn't need to turn on the charm too high to get them onboard. He simply presented himself as the answer to their problems, and the rest took care of itself.

Former Warner executive VP Paul Vidich recalls an early meeting with Jobs, who rocked back and forth in his chair in obvious frustration as he listened to Warner execs explain their digital plans. "I don't want to talk about what you guys are doing," Vidich recalls Jobs finally saying, noting that he began to say, "You guys have always had your head up your," but diplomatically opted not to finish his sentence. Warner was ultimately the first major to strike a deal with iTunes.
FThe industry as a whole was so mesmerized with the slick interface and intuitive navigation of iTunes that the implications of the terms it demanded didn't immediately appear obvious.
For the traditional music industry, the 99 cent per-track price point -- debundled from the album -- gave consumers less of a reason to buy albums. While digital tracks were growing, they didn't make up for the decline in album sales in both digital and physical formats, leading many in the music business to question the logic of the transition, even if it was an inevitable one.
Even more interesting is the effect this had on other digital music services. The deal Jobs struck gave 70% of each sale to the labels and publishers, with Apple keeping only 30%. That's a thin profit margin, but Apple didn't care, as it could afford to run iTunes on a break-even basis while it raked in profits from the iPod.
Even more interesting is the effect this had on other digital music services. The deal Jobs struck gave 70% of each sale to the labels and publishers, with Apple keeping only 30%. That's a thin profit margin, but Apple didn't care -- it could afford to run iTunes on a break -- even basis while it raked in the cash from the iPod.
Other digital music services didn't have that luxury. They had to make that same deal that Apple was giving, only without the benefit of a brisk hardware-selling business to offset the losses.
"He made it very difficult for anybody else to be a retailer of digital music because the margin structure that was set up was very advantageous for labels and very disadvantageous for anybody else," says Dave Goldberg, founder of Launch.com and former head of Yahoo Music. "All the others who tried to get into the business of selling digital music failed because there was just no margin there. That was what got the labels onboard. He made it such that there was no way for anybody else to make any money, and that gave Apple a huge portion of the market share."
Then there was the issue of DRM, insisted on by the labels, the ramifications of which grew far beyond what they could have ever predicted. Apple's DRM implementation used a proprietary system called FairPlay, which worked only within the ecosystem of Apple's devices. The company refused to license it to other digital retailers, meaning any music bought in DRM form from those services wouldn't play on the iPod. This was particularly frustrating for subscription services.
At the time of the iTunes negotiations, Apple accounted for only about 5% of the personal computer market. Thanks to the success of the iPod and the restrictions of DRM, Apple soon captured an estimated 80% of the digital music market.
But to just look at revenue splits and user interface designs isn't enough to fully appreciate what Jobs brought to iTunes. His mere opinions helped shape the market by what he didn't do as much as what he did.
Take subscription music. Jobs from the very beginning looked down on the model, because he didn't personally think that's what consumers wanted.
"He probably had a role in the slow development of the streaming business by criticizing it with some frequency," former Napster CEO Chris Gorog says. "Days after [Napster's rebirth as a legitimate subscription service], Apple put out a press release comparing iTunes' great success versus Napster 2.0's still-developing opening numbers. Jobs followed this by giving media interviews explaining that 'nobody wants to rent music'-attacking Napster's subscription model. This was like the hare circling back to jump up and down on the turtle. It made us mad, and then it made us laugh. He was awesome."
The debut of the iPhone in 2007 revolutionized the mobile business, both from the perspective of hardware manufacturing (particularly with its touchscreen interface), but more importantly by the way content is acquired through them. The App Store model largely removed wireless carriers from the content retailing equation, allowing developers, service providers and media/entertainment companies to reach mobile consumers directly.
It also had a profound impact on the digital music business by essentially mobilizing any service that could create an app. Before the iPhone, custom Internet radio, subscription music and music-ID companies, among others, had yet to find their legs and their lack of mobility inhibited their ability to grow. To take mind share away from established players like commercial radio and TV, make accessing music as compelling as owning it and, ultimately, let users identify songs while they're out, these services needed a connected device that enabled users to take their services on the go.
And the iPhone turned out to be exactly that: the platform that freed Web-based music services from the chains of a computer and make them mobile. Due to the frenzy surrounding the device and the subsequent app downloading craze, mobile usage of Pandora, Slacker, Rhapsody and Shazam skyrocketed, reinvigorating users with a sense of enthusiasm for music.
Once mobile, Pandora and Slacker allowed listeners to take the customized stations they made online and take them places they hadn't been experienced before. For many new users, this may have been the first time they'd ever heard a radio station tailored to match their tastes and one that they could give feedback to in real time. The popularity of these services caught the attention of terrestrial radio giant Clear Channel, which recently rolled out the ability to create custom channels on its iHeartRadio app.
Where all of this leads remains to be seen. Apple can be expected to remain an innovator. But it will now have to soldier on without Jobs' charisma and his ability to cajole media and entertainment chieftains to venture out into new terrain.
"He stepped past everything going on and put together a way to deliver music without worrying about compatibility problems," former Sony exec Smith says. "He forced the industry to follow. He ended the bullshit."

For many consumers in Europe and the Americas, the credit card has been the preferred mode of payment for all their transactions. However, with the upsurge in ecommerce and the proliferation of diverse payment methods, the consumer has been spoilt for choice. Of special mention is the ability to buy now and pay later payment method, which has caught the interest of the millennials and Gen Z, swiftly becoming their “goto” mode of payment.
Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) is a short-term financing offering that enables the consumer to place the order for a product, arrange to make payment for it at an agreed later date with no other fees imposed, as long as payment is made promptly, as scheduled. According to Juniper Research, 340 million consumers used BNPL in 2021, with this number expected to go up to 1.5 billion by 2026. Of the total transactions generated using this payment method, more than 24% were attributed to the ecommerce industry.
In the past two years, BNPL has been a popular payment method in Europe, the Americas, South-east Asia and the Middle East. Offered by well-known international brands like Apple, ZARA, Adidas, Nike, and SHEIN, BNPL is also offered by ecommerce titans like Amazon, Walmart, traditional institutions like Goldman, Barclays Bank and Visa have also jumped on the bandwagon to ride this innovative wave.
With economies still reeling from the effects of the global pandemic, the BNPL mode has not only alleviated the pressure on the consumer but also enabled the merchants to sell more and generate increased revenue.
According to a report published by RBC Capital, the BNPL mode has brought about an increase in conversion rate for merchants by about 20% to 30%. In 2021, merchants who offered BNPL to their customers saw their revenue increase by 41% year over year. This figure is expected to be doubled by 2024.
Klarna, the Trail Blazer in BNPL
Klarna, a founding enabler, is the biggest provider of the BNPL payment method in Europe. With an active base of 150 million consumers, Klarna offers BNPL to more than 450,000 merchants across 45 countries and regions.
Sebastian Siemiatkowski, the co-founder and CEO of Klarna once said: “By leveraging the conversion rate, average order value and sales revenue, Klarna managed to establish value-added relationships with the merchants while at the same time offering the consumer the ultimate shopping experience.”
Focusing on meeting the shopping and payment needs of consumers from diverse backgrounds, Klarna launched an array of payment products that included Pay Later, Pay Now and Financing.
Pay Later : In some regions, the consumer could either opt to make full payment for the product 30 days after it has been delivered or split the amount into 3 or 4 interest-free payments with no further fees imposed. (Unless additional expenses have been incurred due to delayed or non-payment.)
Pay Now: Once the consumer has decided on the product to be purchased, they would make payment immediately using their credit card.
Financing: Once the consumer has placed the order, they could apply for short-term financing with flexible interest rates.
With its rapidly increasing popularity, the BNPL payment method has inadvertently become the link between the consumer and the merchant. It is only a matter of time when BNPL will eventually become a key payment method. In our continual quest to cater to the dynamically changing needs of our merchants and customers, Oceanpayment has launched Buy Now, Pay Later products and services in Europe, the USA and South-east Asia, offering our cross-border merchants a secure and convenient one-stop solution that attracts more and diverse consumers, and maximizes conversion rates.

Hi all.....this is my first post. I bought a cheap ac power supply for my Dell inspiron 6000 when the original died. Yesterday, it failed. Upon inspection, I realized the power supply was shorted out. I replaced it and nothing happened...no light no sign of any power to the computer. I think I may have shorted out the computer and was hoping there is some sort of internal fuse that could be switched out. thanks for any help!
