While you’re here, make sure you also see these great recipes: Texas Roadhouse Rolls with Cinnamon Honey Butter | Three Ingredient Beer Bread Recipe | Slow Cooker Cinnamon Raisin Bread | Banana Bread in a Jar
Here’s what you’ll need to make the Butter Dip Buttermilk Biscuits (the exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the printable recipe card):
- All-purpose flour
- Granulated sugar
- Baking powder
How to Make Butter Dip Buttermilk Biscuits
Pour the melted butter into a square baking dish or pan. You’ll be dropping the batter right on top of this butter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the buttermilk and mix until a soft batter forms.
Drop the biscuit batter into the pan over the butter and spread out evenly edge to edge. Some of the butter will come up over the sides of the batter, and this is okay.
Use a knife to cut the batter into 9 square biscuits. You can dip the knife in the butter along the sides of the pan to make the cutting easier.
Bake the biscuits at 450ºF for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
What to Serve with the Biscuits
- Softened butter
- Jam – strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, or blueberry are some of our favorites.
- Whipped sweetened cream
- Fresh berries – sliced strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, or blueberries and a sprinkle of sugar.
- Breakfast foods – bacon or sausage, eggs, and hash browns would all make a perfect breakfast when paired with the butter dip biscuits.
How to Store Leftover Biscuits
Keep leftover biscuits in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, microwave the biscuit on high for 15 seconds at a time until warm.

- Preheat oven to 450F.
- Pour the melted butter into the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking dish.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the buttermilk and stir until the dough forms (it will be very sticky). Scoop the dough into the baking dish on top of the butter and spread out evenly.
- Use a knife to cut the dough in the pan into 9 squares. Tip: dip the knife in the melted butter along the sides of the baking dish to make it easier to cut the dough without it sticking to the knife.
- Bake the biscuits at 450F for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.

The Florida Gators upset 11th-ranked Tennessee at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in Gainesville last night 29-16.
Florida controlled the game in time of possession (37:34 to 22:17 for Tennessee).
Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton III completed 20 of 34 passes for 287 yards with two touchdown throws and one interception.
Milton started off with an 11-yard touchdown pass to Ramel Keyton to go up 7-0 over the Gators. The Gators countered with a touchdown of their own but missed the extra-point attempt.
Florida would score 20 unanswered points on Tennessee in the second quarter taking a 26-7 lead into halftime.
The Vols would score again. Florida kicked a field goal to make the final score 29-16.
A brief scuffle happened between the teams after Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel called a timeout with 9 seconds remaining in the game down 13 points.
Following the timeout, Florida quarterback Graham Mertz took the snap from the center and attempted to kill the clock by running to his right. Tennessee’s Omari Thomas hit Mertz when Mertz was taking a knee resulting in the brief scuffle.

This poster was printed in the 1990's by the estate of the artist Adolphe Mouron Cassandre. It uses Cassandre's original design printed in 1935, which became one of the most well-known posters of all time. The poster promoted the Inaugural Voyage of the Normandie. The ship was the leading vessel of its time and it was completely furnished with the highest level of Art Deco design. Cassandre's dynamic image and rich colors still resonate with the viewer over 75 years after its creation. This printing is in a larger size format than the original 1930's issue so as to not confuse the two posters.
Adolphe Jean Marie Mouron (1901-1968), commonly known as AM Cassandre, is one of the most influential poster artists of the mid-twentieth century. His work mixes elements of art deco, cubism and surrealism. Cassandre established his own advertising agency, Alliance Graphique. Along with his innovative art style, Cassandre also developed several typefaces for use in his advertising. In 1936, his posters were exhibited by the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His images of speeding trains, ocean liners, and festive cocktails defined our vision of the period between the wars. His influence is still being felt today in current graphic designs.
This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition.We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.

Somewhere, Over the Rainbow....
As I opened the carton containing these delightful pieces, and unwrapped the first colourful piece of eye-candy, I heard the song “Somewhere, Over the Rainbow” with such clarity.
These delightful Rainbow Andaras totally thrill the senses. They are light, delicate, playful, and have such a fine high, heart-based vibration. They radiate peace, love and happiness, and encourage us to look for the beauty within and outside ourselves.
They clear, cleanse and energize our chakras and energy field, filling us with beautiful clear, perfect colour radiating throughout our Rainbow light body.
They have us looking for the rainbows after the rain, the silver linings in the storm clouds. They encourage us to look beyond what may be occurring in our world and create the most perfect colourful world of our dreams. They dare us to dream, and dream BIG, in full colour. They encourage us to play with colour, get creative, surround ourselves with vibrant beauty, and most of all, to follow our dreams.
These pieces may contain every colour of the rainbow,, or only a couple of colours, and yet even the pieces with less colours seem to hold the energy of the entire rainbow.
“The light within me is the light within you
I am the reverend leader of Love
Sanctity is my pure joy
Feel me sing my song of love and joy through the portals and the energetic frequencies of my light
I am the Rainbow of your soul“

Anti-war protesters gathered on the SMU campus today calling for former President George W. Bush to be arrested for war crimes.
The rally was designed to coincide with festivities surrounding this week's groundbreaking for his presidential library being built on campus.
Two dozen demonstrators gathered amid 175 pairs of worn Army boots near Ford Stadium at the southern tip of Southern Methodist University. The boots represented some of the service members killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The high-visibility spot was a mixed blessing because one woman cut down and drove off with the protesters' anti-Bush banner while they were holding a news conference nearby.
Campus police got the woman's license plate number and plan to ask her to return it.
A march and rally are planned for Tuesday, when Bush will be joined by 2,500 guests for groundbreaking ceremonies on the SMU campus.

Had to pull my toy hauler (travel trailer) to a local shop for a new awning today.
Straight road mostly gave me a good chance to see if I could hold 65 mph in 8th. The answer is simply, "No".
In tow-haul mode you only get 7th. Take it out and I had to get up to about 70 mph and the let-off the throttle to get into 8th. It would not hold any reasonable speed and would slow down under light throttle or jump back into 7th or even 6th.
My conclusion is just put the thing in tow haul and run it in 7th. It pulls fine with large profile trailers and saves the mental hassle of playing with the gearing and haul mode.
What's the length / weight of your travel trailer? Were you happy with the overall performance of the ed pulling that unit? How did it do compared to your previous rig and what was that?

Athlon Sports & Life, best known for its college football and basketball preview magazines, released its ranking of the best coaching tandems in the ACC. The publication ranked the 14 member schools who compete in the ACC as full members in both football and men’s basketball. The coaches at Duke–David Cutcliffe (football) and Mike Krzyzewski (men’s basketball)–were awarded the top spot. The honor is nothing new for the pair, who have earned the No. 1 spot in Athlon’s rankings every year since 2013. Louisville’s combination of Bobby Petrino (football) and Rick Pitino (men’s basketball) finished second in the poll, just ahead of North Carolina. Roy Williams (basketball) and Larry Fedora (football) had the Tar Heels in third place in the poll, their highest ranking ever. The Heels moved up from fourth place in the 2016 rankings and fifth the year before.Wake Forest’s football coach Dave Clawson and basketball coach Danny Manning finished in twelfth place in the rankings. That’s the highest for Wake since Clawson and Manning’s predecessors, Jim Grobe and Jeff Bzdelik respectively placed the Deacs in eleventh back in 2013. Since then, Wake has finished 15th, 15th and 14th (Notre Dame was included in the rankings until this season.) NC State, who fired basketball coach Mark Gottfried last week and is conducting a search for his replacement, finished 13th, ahead of last-place Boston College. State hit a high point of ninth place in the 2013 poll and has been in twelfth or 13th ever since.

Actress Kareena Kapoor Khan says that she agreed to the upcoming film ‘English Medium’ because she wanted to work with the film’s lead actor Irrfan Khan.
At a special screening of the upcoming web series ‘Mentalhood’ starring her elder sister Karishma Kapoor, Kareena said, “I was thrilled for this film because I was working with Irrfan in it. I got an opportunity to work with a very talented actor like Irrfan and I think it is very respectful for me. ”
After battling cancer, Irrfan is making a comeback to films with his project. He is currently undergoing treatment due to being unwell. A few days ago, while sharing a message for his fans, he said that due to health reasons he would not be able to promote his upcoming film.
Directed by Homi Adajania, ‘English Medium’ is a spin-off of the 2017 Hindi film Hindi Medium. Apart from Irrfan, the film starring Kareena, Radhika Madan, and Deepak Dobriyal will release on 13 March.


It’s around this time of year that we start to see Mardi Gras paraphernalia popping up in stores: shimmering noisemakers, bountiful bunches of beads, decorations and party hats. But if you’re like me, you bypass the trinkets and inevitable sales on candy-flavored booze and head straight for that beautiful cinnamon pastry, dusted with sugars of green, gold and purple. I am, of course, speaking about the king cake.
Under various titles and traditions, king cake is eaten far and wide, from France, Quebec, Spain and Latin America to South America and the United Kingdom. While in many cultures and countries, king cake season extends throughout the Christmas season, we in America usually only see them near Mardi Gras, the “fat Tuesday” just before the start of Lent.
The bready cinnamon confection was brought to the southern United States in the early 1700s by Basque settlers, originally eaten to celebrate Epiphany — or the revelation of God incarnate as Jesus Christ — in early January. Some bakeries sell it with different fillings like strawberry, pecans or cream cheese, but most follow a similar formula of yeast dough, baked in a ring and topped with icing and colorful sprinkles.
And though the cake itself is tasty, perhaps even more exciting is the hiding of a trinket — usually a plastic baby Jesus — within the cake. Whoever receives the slice with the baby is said to receive either prosperous luck for the next year, or the responsibility of hosting next year’s Mardi Gras party. I am, in fact, a former Mardi Gras queen — my reign over my preschool class was benevolent.
Whether you bake your own king cake, pick it up at your local grocer or buy it from a bakery, I encourage you to partake in this delicious winter tradition. And if you want to celebrate Mardi Gras a little more boisterously, St. Louis has some fun events to check out.

Are you searching for an exotic pet that will actually be a magnet for your friends and family? Instructional and exhibitory purposes need a license and anyone can maintain primates as pets. Animal shelters, alternatively, typically have exotic pets for adoption at a worth far lower than you’ll find the same animal obtainable for in a pet store. Kansas does not permit harmful regulated animals to be saved as pets until you are a zoo, sanctuary, or different authorized facility.
Among all forms of lemurs, the mouse lemurs and ring-tailed lemurs are maybe the most generally bought sorts as pets. Many animal shelters (SPCA, Humane Society, and so on.) checklist some of their adoptable pets on-line but you must also examine the shelter themselves to see what they have for adoption.
Coatimundis and ringtail cats are also carefully related exotic pets which are comparable. On Saturday, the opposite birds will promote, these being unique chickens, pheasants, peafowl , emus, and who-is aware of-what! Unique pets gave me a new turtle no value and have been so kind all through the complete course of.
Some individuals also establish their pets as snake, iguanas, or other reptile that they’ll join with. Lots of traffic in and out for feeder insects and animals, clearly it is a trusted place for people with unique pets. A couple of years ago my husband, daughter, and I, attended an Odd and Unusual Action (in Innsfail, Alberta) during which unique livestock and pets are bought.
First, you might want to look for a list of pets considered as unique inside your space, then test your local legal guidelines and see if there’s a rule towards owning unique pets. No matter causes you could personally have for wanting to find an exotic pet, you may have observed that obtainable picks are often very restricted in any native unique pet retailers.

Smartphones today aren’t just getting bigger or more powerful—they’re getting cheaper, too. Huawei, a relatively unknown electronics company outside of China, has released its own entrant into the cheap smartphone game, and it’s one of the more compelling offers we’ve seen in a while. Say hello to the Huawei Ascend Mate2, a 6.1-inch behemoth that’s only $299 off-contract—and it’s available for pre-order starting today.
Specs-wise, the Mate2 is decidedly mid-range, so don’t expect this to challenge something like the HTC One (M8) or Galaxy S5 in terms of raw power. But we all know by now that specs don’t make or break a device; it’s the experience that ultimately matters. That said, the Mate2 features a 6.1-inch 720p screen, 1.6GHz quad-core processor, 3900mAh battery, 2GB of RAM and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. In addition, the device also has a 13-megapixel camera (5-megapixel front), LTE and Bluetooth 4.0.
The device is pretty enormous, sure, but it isn’t unwieldy; the design is fairly unassuming, too, textured back, flat sides and rounded corners, just like 90-percent of the other Android smartphones on the market. On the bottom is the microUSB port, and on the top is the 3.5mm headphone jack. It feels a bit heavy, and certainly requires two hands in order to use comfortably, but it’s not any less usable than, say, a Galaxy Mega, which is one of the larger devices around.
At $299 without a contract, the Mate2 is a pretty compelling offer, especially considering some of today’s most popular flagships require a subsidy to hit that $299 price. Just buy the device, pop in your SIM, and you’re good to go. You can pre-order the device now in either black or white, with shipments expected to go out in a week or so.

Grandmother's Cinnamon-Sugar Kuchen (Dairy)
A kosher recipe for Cinnamon-Sugar Kuchen, a rich sour cream coffee cake with a ribbon of cinnamon sugar; the cinnamon mixture tops the cake too.
- Serves: 12 persons
- For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
- ⅓cup (65 g) sugar
- 2tablespoons cinnamon (or according to taste)
- 4tablespoons (2 ounces/60 grams) unsalted butter (melted)
- For the Cake Batter:
- 3 ½cups (1 pound/450 grams) cake flour ( OR 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, and 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon cornstarch)
- 2teaspoons baking powder
- 6ounces (1 1/2 sticks/170 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature (cut into small bits)
- ¾cup (6 ounces/170 grams) sugar
- 2large eggs
- ½cup (120 ml) milk
- 8ounces (250 grams) sour cream
Step 1Preheat oven to 375 F/190 C. Grease and flour a large tube pan. In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar. Place the melted butter in another small bowl. Set aside.
Step 2In a large bowl, whisk together the cake flour (or all-purpose flour and cornstarch), and baking powder. Rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the sugar and stir to combine.
Step 3Make a well in the center of the mixture. Put the eggs, milk and sour cream into the well. With a wooden spoon, slowly begin mixing the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until the mixture is combined. (The batter will be very thick).
Step 4Spread half the batter into the bottom of the prepared pan. Drizzle evenly with half of the melted butter. Then, sprinkle half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture on top of that.
Step 5Spread the rest of the batter on top of the cinnamon and sugar. Drizzle with the remaining melted butter, followed by the rest of the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
Step 6Bake for 50 minutes to an hour, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Be careful not to overcook as this makes the cake dry.

Ten iconic 20th century sculptures
KAZoART introduces you to ten iconic sculptures that left a lasting impression on their era and went down in history. Revolutionary, controversial or especially aesthetic, these ten sculptures have become a lasting part of art history, leading their creators to join the ranks of posterity. From the oldest to the most recent, follow the timeline of a very sculptural history…
#1 Guitar • Pablo Picasso, 1912
In 1912, a few years before inventing Cubism with Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso moved his cubist theories from the canvas to the 3D world. He adapted his cubist rules for sculpture and produced a cardboard guitar, one of his recurring themes at the time. It was a striking creation at the start of a century full of artistic discoveries.
#2 Unique Forms of Continuity in Space • Umberto Boccioni, 1913
This sculpture by Italian artist Umberto Boccioni—a member of the avant-garde Futurist movement—depicts a man walking and is designed to illustrate movement and speed in three dimensions. The human form merges with the shapes of a machine, another characteristic of futurist objectives. Although this sculpture is slightly less well-known, it was a very original piece for the time, which shows how art throughout Europe was changing at the start of the century.
#3 The Little Mermaid • Edvard Eriksen, 1913
This sculpture from Edvard Eriksen was created in tribute to the eponymous story by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. The artwork sits upon a rock in the port of Denmark’s capital Copenhagen and is one of the city’s star attractions. As it is exhibited outdoors, it has been vandalized and distorted on a number of occasions, and in 1964 its head was even stolen. The head was never recovered and a new face had to be sculpted for the little mermaid… Luck was not on her side it seems, as the head was stolen again in 1998, although this time, luckily, it was returned.
#4 White Bear • François Pompon, 1923 – 1933
In response to the very expressionist artworks of his contemporary Rodin, sculptor François Pompon abandoned the human form and concentrated instead on the animal world. In 1922, he unveiled his White Bear at the Autumn Fair, attracting the attention of his peers and the general public. His stripped-back, no-frills artworks and their soft shapes are nonetheless very realistic.
#5 Walking Man • Alberto Giacometti, 1960
Giacometti soon began working on human forms, and his research resulted in Walking Man in 1960. The stretched-out, skeleton-like shape of the figure are typical of Giacometti’s sculptures. In 2010, one of ten copies of this artwork sold for €126.83 million, making it the most expensive sculpture ever sold at auction… A true icon!
#6 Mobiles • Alexander Calder, 1962
American artist Alexander Calder – who was also known for creating monumental sculptures exhibited in public spaces – rose to fame for his suspended mobiles. Standing out for their lightweight appearance, primary colours and complete abstraction, these fun artworks are seen as symbols of modernity in the face of classic sculpture.
#7 Compressions • César, 1962
In 1960, César – real name César Baldaccini – discovered the technique of “directed compression”, using a hydraulic press to compress a range of objects, from the body of a car to jewellery… Seeming to challenge the consumerist society of his era, he compressed a huge number of (brand-new) vehicles! In 1975, César designed the famous compressed trophy awarded to actors at the Césars cinema ceremony.
#8 Nanas • Niki de Saint-Phalle, from 1960
Artist Niki de Saint-Phalle began her Nanas series in the late 1960s. The voluptuous forms of these joyous women were inspired by a pregnant friend. She created many Nanas, in all shapes and sizes. The emphasis was always on their feminine attributes and very bright colours. The sculptures embody confident femininity and are rooted in the Feminist movement of the time.
#9 Maman • Louise Bourgeois, 1999
This 10-metre-high monumental sculpture depicting an immense spider is simply titled ‘Maman’.It was designed by Louise Bourgeois as the name implies in tribute to her mother. The artwork has travelled and been exhibited throughout the world, from Washington to Paris and China. The spider’s troubling appearance is simply a façade, as Louise Bourgeois is in fact referring to her mother, a seamstress, who wove thread like a spider weaves silk… A strong work that leaves a lasting impression!
#10 Balloon Dog • Jeff Koons, 1994 – 2000
Artist Jeff Koons never fails to cause a stir. In 2008, for example, his Balloon Dog (magenta) gained huge renown while on exhibition at the Hercules Salon in the Château de Versailles. It was the ideal occasion to impress the public! The artwork depicts a simple latex balloon, inflated and modelled into the shape of a dog, and is reminiscent of fairs and other childhood events, and potentially also a direct reference to his son. By creating the work, Koons had turned a fragile and ephemeral object into a long-lasting monumental sculpture in chrome steel. A great example of the current artistic landscape!

America – from lawmakers to police to citizens – had a cavalier attitude toward drunken driving.
Until 1980, when one mother had had enough after losing her daughter to a drunken driver. Mothers Against Drunk Drivers was launched.
When Candace Lightner lost her daughter, Cari, a country started to change.
More recently and in a different way to measure societal forces, change came to the Boy Scouts of America.
Long a venerable and powerful institution of America male youth, the national powerhouse clung to its traditions in regard to women and gays in its ranks and marched unaffected.
The Scouts won its court battles, but lost in public and ultimately, started to lose community support and sponsor dollars. Scouts changed.
Picking up on my theme from last week, people can change the wrong around them when leaders and leading institutions choose not to change. That looks to be where America’s gun debate is possibly headed.
The Florida shooting might be a Candace Lightner moment.
This week, due to Florida, companies including Delta, United Airlines, Hertz, First National Bank of Omaha, North American Van Lines, Symantec and MetLife have all ended discount programs with the National Rifle Association. Expect more in the coming days as a social media onslaught grows.
The NRA, in the eyes of gun-control advocates, is viewed as the Great Wall in America’s gun debate. Rallying members and money, the NRA’s leverage over lawmakers has often been scorned when changes in gun access laws have been pushed. Whatever changes eventually approved lose the teeth that many want to see happen.
What does America want to see since Florida?
A Quinnipiac University National Poll this week showed the highest support ever for stronger gun measures – 66 percent vs. 31 percent. In 2015, the support was flipped – 47 percent vs. 50 percent.
In Quinnipiac’s poll this week, gun owners weighed in at 50 - 44 percent in support for stronger measures.
I wrote last week that a drive equal to the #metoo movement would be needed. That appears to be happening.
Two weeks following the Florida tragedy, Florida is not going away.
Alvin Chang wrote a great story this week for Vox that showed that by this time in other shootings, America had generally moved on by measure of TV broadcast time.
Sandy Hook, Orlando nightclub, San Bernadino and Gabby Giffords shootings are measured in his chart. By this time in those tragedies, America had begun to move on.
Florida seems to be different.
Students, bolstered by help from a couple of national activist groups, have jumped into the media mainstream instead of retreating into their homes after the initial 72-hour media surge.
They have more action coming, with marches set for March 14 and March 24.
Youngstown and Boardman schools have signed up for the March 14 event.
#Enough and #neveragain are the next #metoo and #timesup.
It could happen.
Republican U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio appeared on a CNN town hall event about the shooting and ceded some positions on gun restrictions. The change prompted this wild headline from Vanity Fair: “Has Marco Rubio, Political Invertebrate, Finally Grown a Spine?”
It could be the time – like drunken driving finally had its time.
Alcohol did not kill the people involved in drunken-driving fatalities.
Neither did the bartender. Neither did the alcohol companies. Neither was it the officer who did not pull over the driver.
In each incident, it was the drunken drivers who caused the deaths; those people and those people only.
But, the person’s flaws in life had factors around them that eased their ability to do harm. And since MADD, all of the factors in drunken driving vigilance – police, bars, bartenders, alcohol companies – have come into play to make America’s roads more safe.
They all ceded ground and assumed roles in the fixes.
The Scouts ceded ground.
The same things appear to be happening with guns and the NRA.
It is the person pulling the trigger who is the problem.
But in filtering through that, we need to look at the tools available to the person that contribute to the mayhem on our streets, in our schools and in our workplaces.
Perhaps this time, we can have that change.

Senator Richard Gordon showed in a video the misconduct of an official of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) in Region 4.
At the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing, Sen. Gordon has a video where PhilHealth Regional Vice President (Region IV-B) Paolo Johann Perez is seen celebrating his birthday inside the office during office hours.
To make matters worse, a woman wearing a bra was dancing in front of Perez.
“On his birthday, Perez received a gift, an enormous box, in his office. A girl, dressed in nothing but her underwear, danced and gyrated provocatively in front of Perez… Perez enjoyed the performance and was seen smiling in the video. He did not prevent the incident, or report and issue any reprimand to the employees who brought the girl, ”the committee report said.
Gordon shows a video of PhilHealth Region 4-A VP Paolo Johann Perez who allegedly received a “girl dressed in nothing” for his bday party during office hours.— Kat Domingo (@_katrinadomingo) August 25, 2020
Perez told senators his staff hired an artist, but he asked everyone to eat instead of watching the girl’s performance. pic.twitter.com/4ME8psnnMh
Perez is one of the so-called “Mafia” members of Philhealth.
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, on the other hand, promised that he will ensure that the individuals behind the corruption in Philhealth are held accountable.
“Huwag kayong magkakamali, itong PhilHealth. Sabi ko, yayariin ko kayo. Maniwala kayo. Yung mga inosente naman wala kayong dapat i-ano, tahimik lang kayo at continue working,”President Duterte threatened.


text: I’m a sucker for anything Thomas Hardy. I cannot help it, he’s really good and A Pair of Blue Eyes is pretty much a masterpiece. Here is a very capricious girl who end up playing with the feelings of every guy who crosses her path. She’s more than ready to change alliances every time she meets a hunk. Funny enough every one of the four guys she meets is in a better social position that the previous one until she finally becomes a lady. No matter how hard I tried I couldn’t sympathize with her or with the main male characters, Stephen and Henry. The first was clueless and the second such a saint that was unbearable. Don’t get me wrong, this novel is a page turner and so well developed and well written that to me is Hardy’s best work. The fact that the characters are so flawed adds to its greatness. I only expect that I may be able to write a ‘magnum opus’ close to it.

190 Supporters of Democratic Legitimacy Injured, Brotherhood Property Demolished
Dr. Lutfi Abdel-Samie, general manager of Kafr El-Sheikh General Hospital, announced that a high number of peaceful demonstrators were injured as a result of a violent attack on supporters of democratic legitimacy, with 150 of injuries caused by brutal beatings and live ammunition, and 40 more serious cases were taken to a military hospital, where surgical operations were conducted on 6 of them.
He added that causes included live ammunition, birdshot, bladed weapons, violent beatings and stones.
Thugs also attacked, looted and ransacked a number of Muslim Brotherhood homes and properties, including a children’s hospital and a clinic owned by Dr. Mohamed Fouad Abdel-Magid, one of the first generation leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Another mob of thugs laid siege to the home of Abdullah Mosbah, a Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) leader and Kafr El-Sheikh’s vice-chairman, whose injuries included a serious wound to the head.
Thugs stormed and smashed the contents of the Directorate of Health Affairs, at the center of Kafr El-Sheikh city. They smashed up the office of the Ministry of Health Undersecretary and all the doors in the building, as well as a number of electric and electronic devices, looting the Regional Centre for Blood Transfusion Services, which then had to stop working.

Emericella species (Anamorph: Aspergillus species)
A slow to moderately rapid growing fungus that produces a green to white to pale yellow colony within fourteen days, when incubated at 25oC (77oF). Purple-brown or yellow cleistothecia (a round fruiting body without an opening that contains randomly placed asci containing ascospores) are produced. Ascospores are either purple-red or light yellow. Yellow or dark brown specialized thick-walled cells (Hülle cells) are present. In culture, the anamorph form is also present. It has worldwide distribution and can be isolated from air, soil, desert soil, sand dunes, peat, garden compost, garden soil, salt marshes, mangrove mud, sewage sludge, sugar cane, coconut groves, rice, cotton, potatoes, citrus, alfalfa, barley, bat caves, bird feathers, grain seeds, groundnuts, and animals. Rarely, it can be an opportunistic pathogen causing mycetomas in man, pulmonary lesions in horses, and aspergillosis in chickens and ducks.

Vince Power has bought the event back from administrators
Spain’s Benicassim festival is set to go ahead next year, despite the fact that last month its parent company went into administration.
The event has now been bought back from administrators by Vince Power, who was previously in charge of the event through his Music Festivals company, which went under in September. BBC Newsbeat reports that Power is “delighted” with the new deal. The event will take place from July 18-21, 2013.
Power’s Music Festivals company – which was also behind the Hop Farm Festival – was worth just £310,000 at the time of its collapse, after this year’s Benicassim and Kent’s Hop Farm proved to be loss-making, despite pulling in big-name headliners such as Bob Dylan.
Power – who owned 23 per cent of the company – propped up Music Festivals PLC with a £750,000 unsecured loan in July, but it wasn’t enough to save the business.
Power opened his first venue, The Mean Fiddler, in northwest London in 1982. He launched and backed many more venues and events, including London’s Forum and Reading Festival, turning Mean Fiddler into the largest promoter in Europe. In 2002, he took operational control of Glastonbury and sold Mean Fiddler in 2005 for £38 million.

Hundreds protest at the Lubbock Women's March
Hundreds gathered Saturday to make their voices heard at the Lubbock’s Women’s March.
The march took place from 2 to 4 p.m. at the southwest and northwest corners of 19th Street and University Avenue.Approximately 350 people stood at the corner in a peaceful protest just after 3 p.m.
More than 1 million people rallied at women’s marches in the nation’s capital and cities around the world Saturday to send President Donald Trump a message on his first full day in office that they will not let his agenda go unchallenged, according to The Associated Press.
Organizer for the local march, James Cloud, who had help of from the Action Network advocacy group, said although it was called a march, participants had to remain in the Texas Tech free speech area.
Many people — women, men, minorities, young and old — stood near the Timothy Cole statue on the southwest corner and held up signs while yelling “Love trumps hate.”
Sarai Brinker, who teared up as she stood next to her daughter Catalina, said she was there for her daughter: “I want my daughter to know that kindness is important and that our words matter.”
Ciara Birley, 22, said it is important for women to know they do not stand alone.
“We don’t have to be afraid,” she said, “we don’t have to feel unsafe. That includes everybody, all genders, anything that identifies with the equality of all people. It’s human rights, not just women’s rights.”
Claire Criss, 22, and a senior at Texas Tech, said protesting was a peaceful way to express how she felt without making anyone personally mad.
“I’m trying to get across the point that I matter,” she said, “that women matter and all people matter. We should all be treated equally and justly.”
Zachary Brandner, 32, said he was overwhelmed by the response to the amount of people who showed up to the march.
“I was at that protest among the most overwhelmingly loving, non-judgmental people I could even imagine,” he said, “because in my mind, and in my experience, that’s what progressives and liberals stand for — love and equality for all.”
Evie Villareal, 26, said she wanted to support all women’s rights.
“I came here to support transwomen, queer women, disabled (people), Muslims,” she said, “mainly because the recent political climate seems to be trying to demean some women in our country.”
Elysse West, 45, said she wanted to protest violence against women.
“I’m also protesting anything that has to do with a change or denial of our climate,” she said. “Science is irrefutable, and yet, (politicians) deny it.”
Anthony Ramirez, 27, said he protested to support all the women in his life.
“I think it’s very important that (women) know that I’m being supportive,” he said. “This is for my friends, for my mom, for my niece and for my aunts.”
As the numbers grew for the protest, the Lubbock Police Department joined the crowd to make sure people were not standing too close to the street and out of traffic.
Cloud recently told A-J Media he hopes the event shares a message that many participants do not agree with Trump’s view of the world.
“People who show progressive values need to come together,” he said.

Teaching primary programming with Scratch: Research informed methods
I have written a book that you will be interested in. This is titled Teaching primary programming with Scratch: Research informed methods.
It examines concepts, different pedagogies, processes and ways to support pupils. It has examples of pupils’ work and was written to help non-specialists understand teaching programming better.
It is a unique publication as it has been commissioned by HIAS but produced and published by the University of Buckingham press. Any profits that the book makes will go into writing new computing books or revising this one.
It is easily the best thing I have ever written and I am sure you will find it useful when deciding how to teach programming and what to teach.
To take advantage of the Hampshire school exclusive discount code: HIAS25 and purchase the book at the special price of £17.99 (RRP £24.99).
Topics covered in the book:


ALONG with the entire local non league programme, Whitley Bay’s fourth round FA Vase game away to Brantham Athletic on Saturday was postponed, with the Suffolk club’s pitch frozen.
The game is now scheduled to be played this coming Saturday.
But with the bad weather expected to continue for the rest of the week, the game could be put back until the following Saturday.
All 16 FA Vase ties fell victim to the wintry weather but the draw for the fifth round went ahead as scheduled on Monday.
If they can overcome Brantham, Whitley will be at home in the fifth round to the winners of the game between Bitton, from the Bristol area, and fellow Northern League side Shildon.
While minds will be firmly on the Brantham game, the prospect of a home tie in the next round is obviously encouraging, although Whitley would have preferred to avoid the possibility of meeting Northern League opponents.
The fifth round games are due to be played on Saturday, February 9.

Arizona Cardinals have no interviews scheduled for Thursday
No one else will be, either, according to Arizona Sports 620's Kyndra de St. Aubin.

CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora tweeted something similar earlier in the day, citing the Bidwills' Fiesta Bowl commitments as a reason for inaction. The game, which will be played Thursday night at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, is pitting Oregon against Kansas State.
Reid was originally scheduled to leave for AZ on Wed. The Bidwells tied up with Fiesta Bowl obligations so difficult to do much there 2day— Jason La Canfora (@JasonLaCanfora) January 3, 2013
Of course, that does not mean the Cardinals won't be doing anything coaching-search related. As de St. Aubin later reported, candidate Ray Horton will be with Cardinals president Michael Bidwill at some point Thursday.

With the glorious weather from the weekend extending into Monday I decided to take myself off for a good long walk. My destination was Pillar, one of my favourite fells. Pillar is an enormous fell, towering above both the head of the Wasdale valley and the Ennerdale valley. It’s a fell that both our Coast to Coast and Inn Way to the Lake District walkers will be familiar with. I however on this occasion wouldn’t be making my approach from either of these two valleys. I was setting off from Honister.
I left Honister Slate Mine and made my way in the direction of my first fell of the day, Haystacks. Some of our Coast to Coast walkers choose to rise out of Ennerdale valley early on and walk over the tops. Haystacks being one of them.
I was rewarded with fabulous views through Buttermere and Crummock. Inn Way walkers walk alongside Buttermere before crossing over Scarth Gap into Ennerdale on their way over to Wasdale via Black Sail Pass. Our Vale of Lorton walkers get to enjoy Crummock as well as the western end of Buttermere.
Innominate Tarn on Haystacks. Final resting place of Alfred Wainwright famous for his Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells as well as our Coast to Coast walk among many other things.
From the summit tarn I sat and looked over to Pillar.
My journey to the top would first involve dropping down into the Ennerdale valley on the route of the Inn Way before saying goodbye to that track at Black Sail Pass and heading towards Pillar, breaking off to take by far the most enjoyable route to the summit via the High Level Traverse to Pillar Rock then up onto the top itself.
Pillar Rock. Under the watchful eye of a more experienced friend I once scrambled to the top of Pillar Rock. As much as I enjoyed it, I don’t think I’ll be doing it again.
Superb views into Ennerdale. I wondered how many walkers would be making their way through the valley on their Coast to Coast adventure.
The summit of Pillar.
Making my way off Pillar towards my final top of the day, Kirk Fell, beyond which we see Great Gable and the Scafell range.
Down to my right is the head of Wasdale. Inn Way to the Lake District walkers will have crossed the col between Pillar and Kirk Fell on Black Sail Pass. Then from Wasdale they’d head over to Eskdale via Burnmoor Tarn which you can just make out directly ahead. The other body of water you can see to the right is Waswater which runs the length of the Wasdale valley.
My final and perhaps favourite view before heading back to Honister was of Great Gable from the flanks of Kirk Fell. It looked magnificent. Then again, it had been a magnificent day all round.

Non-fungible tokens or NFTs are a rage in the creator community. Unfortunately, artists struggle with piracy as criminals use their work to create NFTs without their permission.
NFT artists fight for piracy issues
The issue of piracy of NFTs is a huge problem for artists who have their content online. This is because anyone can take the content on the Internet and create an NFT from it. And the artist may never know that NFT was created from his work, especially if they know nothing about NFT.
DeviantArt, one of the world’s largest digital art platforms, has begun protecting artist content on its platform. As of January 4, 2022, 80,000 NFT violation alerts have been sent. The DeviantArt Protect tool was created by the company in-house to detect a potential NFT violation using the latest image recognition software. The tool scans public block chains and third-party marketplaces for potential technical breaches in the form of NFTs.
But the problem will persist as long as sites that sell NFTs do not have a stricter verification policy for work. As reported on HYPERALLERGIC, DC Comics artist Liam Sharp said he was considering closing his DeviantArt page because so much of his work had been stolen. Fortunately, as of January 13, 2022, his page has been uploaded, and his great work remains.
On the same piece, HYPERALLERGIC also talked about how to do it RJ Palmer And luch Their work was stolen and the NFTs in OpenSea were spilled. OpenSea is the largest NFT marketplace in the world with over 80 million NFTs for sale.
William Shatner of Star Trek fame also tweeted the same concern about his work.
If you are an artist looking for how to create an NFT or how to make money with NFT, there are many resources available to you. But you should keep an eye on your work because there are criminals who will steal your work.
Ethereum and Solana NFTs in one place for free
Australian artist and programmer Jeffrey Huntley has created a torrent website called The NFT Bay. This is a wordplay on the popular torrent site Pirate Bay. Using the Pirate Bay model, Huntley made about 17 TB of NFTs available for download. These are Ethereum and Solana NFTs.
According to Huntley NFT, the images are not stored in the blockchain nodes. This allows anyone to right-click on the image, save it as, and you can download the image. Although people who do not own NFT say that they also own the image by downloading it, the truth is that they do not own it. Why, because they can’t sell that image as the original NFT.
This is the equivalent of right-clicking on the image of the Mona Lisa, downloading it, and claiming that you own the Mona Lisa. The NFT panel can be proven to be unique and not interchangeable, just like the Mona Lisa hanging in the Louvre.
These donated images can be lost or stolen through hacking, but the same goes for physical art. As an NFT owner, you have to protect your property. This includes using secure passwords and even storing NFTs on hard wallets
Huntley says, “Because Web 2.0 hosts are known to go offline (404 errors), this easy-to-use torrent has all the NFT stuff so future generations can study the madness of this generation of tulips.”
This is far from tulip obsession because it is a tool that finally gives artists agency over their work. Not only that, but they can permanently make a commission every time an NFT is sold depending on how it’s set up.
NFT JPG contains one Certificate of Authenticity that cannot be duplicated. This will make NFTs a great asset to the people who invest in them.

On the heels of the price of December gold futures trading down $30 to $2,016, here is the setup.
KWN has fixed the technical issue the network was experiencing, so audio interviews and articles will resume uninterrupted next week. Now for something about gold’s rise above $2,000…
December 8 (King World News) – Alasdair Macleod: Gold and silver continued to rise this week, with gold bursting through the $2000 level, and silver $25. In European trade this morning, gold was $2042, up $42 from last Friday’s close, and silver was $25.20, up 93 cents.
After a busy Monday, Comex volumes in both contracts declined over the week.
Being the month end, usually the bullion establishment likes to shake out weak holders, so that call options are abandoned, and their mark-to-market values are window-dressed favourably. There has been little sign of it. If anything, standing for delivery has been the feature, with 28,184 gold contracts (87.7 tonnes) and 1,554 silver contracts (241.7 tonnes) in the last five trading sessions…
This silver explorer recently did a huge transaction with a $4.5 billion market cap producer CLICK HERE OR ON THE IMAGE BELOW TO LEARN MORE.
In both contracts, Open Interest on Comex has been rising, but are not yet in overbought territory, as the next two charts show.
The bullish gold chart has worked like a charm, up next.
Having broken convincingly above $2000, on technical grounds some consolidation is likely before the old highs at $2070 can be challenged successfully. And after the last few weeks of rising prices, it is quite likely that prices for both metals will succumb to some profit-taking later today, ahead of the weekend.
There is no doubt that gold and silver are being driven higher by a weakening dollar. The next chart is of the dollar’s trade weighted index, which will be worrying foreign holders of dollars.
And in US Treasuries, a substantial bear squeeze is driving yields lower. The next chart is of the 10-year US Treasury Note.
Foreign holders will be assessing the outlook for the dollar and Treasuries. They will note that with the US entering recession and a profligate administration in charge, plus $7.6 trillion of maturing debt to be rolled over next year that there are enormous funding hurdles for the US Government ahead. Furthermore, the recession is global, which is not only driving government deficits higher in the US but in the whole G7 as well. International trade will contract, meaning that fewer dollars need to be held in reserve. Inevitably, this will result in selling pressure as the dollar debt trap unfolds. The question to be answered is that after this technical bear squeeze in bonds is over, how high will yields then rise (and prices fall)?
Increasingly, foreigners holding dollars are looking at an opportunity to sell, and they are likely to conclude that the dollar and US Treasuries no longer represent safety. It’s not for nothing that the rating agencies are cutting US Treasury ratings.
This is why far from gold and silver rising, which is the conventional market view, it is the dollar declining, noticeably against other currencies initially. A large part of the dollar’s bull position has been because the Fed took the lead in driving interest rates and bond yields higher, leading to selling of low-yielding yen and euros. That is now reversing, driving the dollar’s TWI lower, a process which has not ended and should see gold go higher.

There were a few years on this blog (and its earlier incarnations) when practically the only post/posts I’d write in a given year were my year-end music lists. I really liked writing those, thinking about all the music I’d listened to, ranking albums in my head and then on paper and then in my drafts folder. A couple of times, my lists got a little bit of online notoriety to them, like one year when I ranked my favorite albums like they were players on the 1996-97 Chicago Bulls and a popular music blog shared it.
I still listen to a fair amount of new music, but nowhere near as much as I used to. I used to really seek out new albums on a weekly basis to listen to. Now, despite the pandemic essentially locking me indoors for the last several months, I just don’t do that as much. I don’t make time for it like I used to.
But I’m still interested in finding new stuff, if only so I don’t get really bored with the music I already have and love. I just find that new stuff in a different way than I used to. To wit, nowadays, I listen to a lot of my music on YouTube.
That generally means I listen to more singles and fewer albums. I still will check out an album if a single really moves me to, but I’m also content to just add whatever single I’ve found to the appropriate playlist on my Spotify account and move on. This year, I finally woke up to the reality that I’m no longer an album guy. I’m more of a singles guy.
So allow me to share 10 songs I enjoyed this year, as presented on YouTube. Some have killer videos, and some are just songs with static images, but killer videos help the song’s ranking, where applicable. Also, although I listened to a lot of tracks on YouTube from the past couple of years during 2020, I’ve only featured songs that were released/had a video made for them this year.
Honorable mention/music YouTuber of the year: Cookin’ Soul
A couple of dudes from Spain are making some of my favorite hip hop beats right now, and to showcase those beats, they’re making fun animated/spliced-up videos on YouTube and lacing their tracks under some classic hip hop verses. They make “mixtapes” that last 20 to 50 minutes, but they also do individual songs in this fashion. My favorites are their “WHATEVA” tapes, Vol. 3 of which came out in July.
They make such laid-back, jazzy, funky beats, like guys who grew up listening to J Dilla, Pete Rock, Premier, and RZA beats, among others (kinda like I did). I told my friend Kelvin recently they make beats like I would if I was that talented.
10. Sylvan Esso “Ferris Wheel”
I love Sylvan Esso’s music, but I’d be lying if I didn’t admit this upbeat, dancy track wasn’t helped greatly by its awesome video, recorded entirely in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, in my consideration of it for this list. It’s a great song and a fun video. What more could I ask for?
9. Lil Baby “The Bigger Picture”
Right at the peak of civil unrest stemming from the extrajudicial killings of several people of color including George Floyd and Breonna Taylor here in the United States, which coincided with nationwide efforts to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus, Atlanta rising star Lil Baby released this breathless, personal, political, powerful track accompanied by an even more powerful and arresting set of visuals. “Might as well start right here, we done had a hell of a year” indeed.
8. Anderson .Paak “JEWELZ”
Anderson .Paak’s “Malibu” was my album of the year when it came out: an irresistible collection of funk, hip hop, R&B, storytelling, pathos, clever wordplay, and irrepressible personality. I didn’t resonate as closely with his next few releases, and I wondered if maybe it was just a special instance of one collection of an artist’s work hitting my musical sweet spot as he passed through to a more clear version of his own vision.
But in 2020, a bunch of his new work, including excellent features on other people’s songs, really hit that sweet spot again. “JEWELZ” is a fine example of what drew me to Andy in the first place: bravado, funk, and just plain fun. I’d also recommend his collaboration with Busta Rhymes, “YUUUU,” for something else that’s fun, but very different from this.
7. Hot Chip ft. Jarvis Cocker “Straight To The Morning”
I’m a longtime Hot Chip fan, so I automatically go check out any new releases from the band or its constituent members. In the last few years, I’ll admit, I haven’t always liked what I’ve heard. It’s not a big deal, just artists evolving and my tastes perhaps evolving in a different direction. I still love these dudes. And this track is a great example of Hot Chip at its best, with a sly feature from Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker, a nouveau-disco rhythm, and a celebratory video featuring a girls’ sleepover gone wild (though not TOO wild, as you’d probably guess based on the piles of Magic: The Gathering cards being tossed around at the start).
6. Your Old Droog ft. Tha God Fahim and Mach-Hommy “New Religion”
Hearing this track, with its simplistic loop sample and absolute fire rapping, made me run over to YOD’s Bandcamp and pay to download his new album, “Dump YOD: Krutoy Edition” immediately. Droog’s always had a classic hip hop feel to his work, and his latest work just keeps that going.
5. Black Thought ft. Swizz Beatz, Pusha T, and Killa Mike “Good Morning”
I’ve never been the biggest fan of Swizz Beatz, but I admit that sometimes he brings the heat. I didn’t figure he’d be bringing the heat in 2020, but here we are. It helps that there are three block-demolishing verses from three hip hop legends in three minutes. Black Thought is peaking again as a rapper, and it’s just plain good for hip hop.
4. Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist ft. Tyler, the Creator “Something to Rap About”
If there was a contest for which rapper “won” 2020, I’d put Freddie Gibbs on the shortlist. Between his plush, luxurious album “Alfredo” with legendary producer The Alchemist (from which this laid back track comes), and numerous amazing features, including a contender for most balls-out verse of the year on Problem’s “Don’t Be Mad At Me” remix, he was ubiquitous on the rap scene this year. He deserves all the love he gets and more.
3. IDLES “Kill Them With Kindness”
I can’t say I was in on the ground floor with Bristol-based punk band IDLES, but I can say that the more I’ve heard of their music over the last year or so, the more I’ve liked their whole deal.
Very recently, they dropped a video for “Kill Them With Kindness,” a killer (pun intended) track off their most recent album, “Ultra Mono.” The old-timey animated video is amazing, and the song is somehow even better.
2. Run The Jewels ft. Greg Nice and DJ Premier “Ooh LA LA”
I remember the DJ Premier/GangStarr/Nice & Smooth track this vocal sample (Greg Nice saying “ooh la la/ah oui oui”) comes from, and it’s the genius of Premier that he can take tiny little snatches of gold from 25-year-old tracks and spin them out into full hits. This song is great all on its own, but is heightened by a cathartic, anarchic, celebratory video full of happy mayhem in the ruins of a destroyed Wall Street.
1. Disclosure ft. Fatoumata Diawara “Douha (Mali Mali)”
If there was a song that was the soundtrack to this year for me, this peppy dance track by ATR favorites Disclosure was it. I’ve listened to it dozens of times and it never fails to get my mood up. I’d never heard of Fatoumata Diawara before hearing this song, but I’m glad the boys of Disclosure decided to feature her here.

A revised edition of the same title published in 1990s, argues that the environment has only been degraded more, and the status of women has been eroded by the rise of religious fundamentalism in almost every culture. Draws out the links between attitudes toward women and the way we treat the natural world around us. If nature is somehow perceived as “feminine,” then it is no surprise that it is heedlessly abused and used, especially when both women and the earth exist under the sovereignty of a patriarchal God.

Strong muscles are important for healthy bodies. One way to keep muscles in shape is with strength training. But performing muscle-strengthening exercises the wrong way can do more harm than good. Here are some guidelines to help you avoid injury and keep your program on track.
- Always warm up and cool down properly.
- Use proper form to avoid injuries and maximize gains. You can learn good form through a class or one-on-one sessions with a certified exercise professional.
- Breathe out when you are lifting or pushing; breathe in as you slowly release the load or weight. Never hold your breath while straining. This action, called the Valsalva maneuver, can temporarily raise your blood pressure considerably and can be risky for people with cardiovascular disease.
- Don't lock your joints; always leave a slight bend in your knees and elbows when straightening out your legs and arms.
- Don't be so eager to see results that you risk hurting yourself by exercising too long or choosing too much weight. And remember that it's important to rest muscles for at least 48 hours between strength training sessions.
- If you've been sick, give yourself one or two days off after recovering. If you were ill for a while, you may need to use lighter weights or less resistance when you first resume exercising.
- Strength training exercises should not cause pain while you are doing them. If an exercise or movement causes significant pain, stop doing it! When performing an exercise, stick with a range of motion that feels comfortable. Over time, try to gradually extend that range.
- Listen to your body and cut back if you aren't able to finish a series of exercises or an exercise session, can't talk while exercising, feel faint after a session, feel tired during the day, or suffer joint aches and pains after a session.

Pre-production will begin in January 2017 on the animated sequel, again directed by Richard Starzak.
Aardman and StudioCanal are re-teaming on Shaun The Sheep Movie 2, the sequel to their 2015 animated feature hit, which earned $106m at the global box office.
StudioCanal is co-financing and will distribute in its own territories, the UK, France, Germany, Australia and New Zealand, selling other international territories at the forthcoming AFM.
The first film’s creative team of director Richard Starzak and producer Paul Kewley will reunite for the sequel.
Pre-production will begin in January 2017.
David Sproxton, co-founder and executive chairman at Aardman, said: “Shaun’s move to the big screen proved such a success with audiences around the world that he and the flock are very excited to be embarking on another big screen adventure. Aardman is partnering with StudioCanal once again to produce another rip-roaring comedy, featuring Shaun and the rest of the gang in a story that takes them to even greater heights of lunacy.”
Ron Halpern, EVP of international productions and acquisitions for StudioCanal, added: “All of us here at StudioCanal are Aardman fans. To get to see the wonderful way they work in Bristol as they have for 40 years now through to the first Shaun The Sheep Movie was an experience we will always cherish. Luckily we get to start again with what will definitely be another film showcasing Aardman’s unique humour, creativity and craftsmanship.”
Shaun The Sheep Movie 2 joins another hotly anticipated family sequel — Paddington 2 — on StudioCanal’s slate.
