The chain was featured in the 1996 film The Cable Guy, and the 2004 feature film Garden State. When asked why the company was filing for bankruptcy the company's bankruptcy lawyer, Alan Friedman, said, "One of the primary reasons for filing was to prevent the IRS from beginning to seize any assets." According to the IRS, Medieval Times improperly deducted royalties, loan interest, and management fees in the 19 tax years. In April 1997, the franchises in Florida and California sought bankruptcy protection after losing a court battle with the IRS that required the Buena Park location to pay US$7.5 million and the Orlando location to pay $2.5 million in back taxes (equivalent to about $13.7 and $4.6M in 2022). ![]() In 1986 they opened their second establishment near Disneyland in California.

![]() It’s important to point out that benzene wasn’t added to these products. Why you should still keep using sunscreen If you have any health issues that you suspect are tied to using one of these sunscreens, contact your doctor. If you have one of the affected sunscreens above, Johnson & Johnson recommends getting rid of it and contacting the company with questions or to request a refund at 1-80. What should you do if you have one of these sunscreens? “Daily exposure to benzene in these aerosol sunscreen products at the levels detected in our testing would not be expected to cause adverse health consequences,” the company said in a statement. “The potential for benzene to cause problems is dependent on the amount you are exposed to at any one time, and also the total amount of benzene you are exposed to over your lifetime,” explains Jamie Alan, Pharm.D., Ph.D., associate professor of pharmacology and toxicology at Michigan State University.īut Johnson & Johnson says that it’s unlikely that the levels of benzene detected during its testing would be an issue. “However, there are times when products exceed the stipulated limit.” “The FDA allows benzene in trace amounts,” Dr. Rodney, M.D., founding director of Eternal Dermatology + Aesthetics in Maryland. Long-term exposure to benzene may lead to leukemia and other blood disorders, the CDC says.īenzene is “found in many detergents, dyes, drugs, and some skincare products,” says board-certified dermatologist Ife J. It can also impact the immune system by changing blood levels of antibodies and damaging white blood cell counts. It causes cells to malfunction, like keeping bone marrow from producing enough red blood cells, which can lead to anemia. Why can benzene be harmful?īenzene is an organic compound that’s a known carcinogen, meaning it has the potential to cause cancer, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC). Here’s everything you need to know about benzene and sunscreen safety, according to dermatologists. Johnson & Johnson said that the company is still reviewing how the cancer-causing agent got into the batches. Product images and more information on lot recalls is available on the Neutrogena and Aveeno websites. “Out of an abundance of caution, we are recalling all lots of these specific aerosol sunscreen products,” Johnson & Johnson said in a press release.

![]() The fish species themselves were not under threat of extinction, he added, though "probably, in 50 years, there's going to be so few reefs. ![]() But if you throw a cloud of cyanide over a reef to stun all the fish and that coral is bleaching, that reef is dead. "A bleached coral has a high possibility of recovering if there's no other pollution stress around it. All through the Indo-Pacific, corals are bleaching," said Downs. "Cyanide fishing is very destructive to coral reefs and coral reefs are under a huge amount of climate change stress at the moment. "The 'Dories', the blue tangs, the ones I purchased, all had, except for one, very high levels" of poisonous residue, said Downs.Īnd those "did not survive beyond nine days after purchase."īlue tangs are sold for aquariums for up to 150 euros ($170) apiece, said Downs.īut worse than customer deception, the practice of cyanide fishing is devastating for the coral reefs that the popular pets come from. The team had tested over 100 fish, including blue tangs-of which an estimated 300,000 are traded every year, according to a recent report.įriday's release of Pixar's "Finding Dory", an animated film about a forgetful blue tang, will likely boost demand for aquarium specimens of the tropical fish, a report says Tests on European pet fish will follow next year. The results would be similar in other countries, given that most of the world's tropical aquarium fish come from the same suppliers, said Downs. More than half of saltwater aquarium fish the researchers bought from US-based pet stores and wholesalers, tested positive for cyanide residue, said the report. you squirt cyanide onto a fish or it goes into this cloud of cyanide and it is stunned," Downs told AFP by telephone. One of the most common, though illegal, ways of capturing the colourful creatures is to use cyanide. The film's predecessor, "Finding Nemo", had seen more than a million clownfish taken from tropical reefs, said Craig Downs of the Haereticus Environmental Laboratory in Virginia, a research body which worked on the report with conservation group For the Fishes. Friday's release of Pixar's "Finding Dory", an animated film about a forgetful blue tang, will likely boost demand for aquarium specimens of the tropical fish, and fuel the poisonous practice used to trap them, said a report. ![]() The purpose of this day is for citizens to honor Jews and other victims murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust genocide during World War II. ![]() “The importance of this day remains so we can honor the individuals we lost to such a tragic event, we must continue to honor the lives lost to the Holocaust.

In the movie’s precise and artful opening scene, Cecilia enacts her elaborate escape from the house she and Adrian share, a minimalist gothic home-by-the-sea, like Silicon Valley’s version of a Daphne du Maurier mansion-it’s been Marie Kondo’ed of everything but its grim secrets. But The Invisible Man is still an excellent vehicle for her you can’t imagine the film without her. Moss is good at these roles, so good that she should probably take a break from them. She’s also won an Emmy for her role as a resilient victim of ongoing trauma under a totalitarian regime in Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale. This isn’t the first time she’s been enlisted to play a woman who appears to be losing her grip: In Queen of Earth (2015) and Her Smell (2018), both directed by Alex Ross Perry, she plays characters in danger of falling off the edge of the world-it’s spinning too fast, and they can’t get a foothold. The psychological violence in The Invisible Man is subtler but no less affecting, thanks to Moss. What is it that makes us believe a woman’s story? If a woman is struck by an unseen hand, as Cecilia is, has it really happened? Where’s the proof? In The Invisible Man, it’s her word against his silence-and he doesn’t even have the guts to show his face. But the movie’s violence opens up a larger question, keyed to the way the world reacts when a woman steps forward to call out abuse. There’s some cruelty in this visual there are moments when The Invisible Man is not fun to watch. When it happens to Cecilia, we hear the crack of a hand against her cheekbone, just before she reels off her feet. There are several instances in which women are struck, hard, in The Invisible Man. Maybe she is just imagining it all the movie enlists us as part of the gaslighting scheme, particularly in its tricky final act.īut it’s also hard to watch Cecilia suffer, either emotionally or physically. Yet when she tries to tell her friends, her sister (played by Harriet Dyer), and, eventually, the authorities that her vengeful ex has found a way to make himself invisible and is trying to destroy her, we can understand the doubt that clouds their faces, even though we’ve seen plenty of evidence that Cecilia is telling the truth. Cecilia’s vulnerability is a kind of raw nakedness she’s a woman with no place to hide. Yet the moment is chilling, partly because the sight of-or the illusion of-someone looking at a sleeping woman is always chilling. Wells’ novel.) In one scene, Cecilia-who has found safety living with a close friend, police detective James (Aldis Hodge) and his teenage daughter Sydney (Storm Reid), whom she adores-lies sleeping, as the blanket covering her is slowly dragged off by an unseen force at the foot of the bed. (The movie gently riffs on, but isn’t a remake of, James Whale’s 1933 version of H.G. ![]() The Invisible Man is his third film as a director (the previous two were Insidious: Chapter 3, from 2015, and Upgrade, from 2018), and he’s fully clued in to the open secret of all great horror films: The scariest things are those that you don’t see. Whannell made his name, as both an actor and writer, with the 2004 Saw: He starred in the film, and co-wrote it with director James Wan. Moss is The Invisible Man’s skeleton key, the means to opening its every door. Do we believe what they’re telling us, or is she really just nuts? Moss’ gift, on full display here, lies in making us want to side with her, when we know it would probably be smarter to flee. Sometimes they gleam like shiny pinwheels, a hypnotist’s trick. ![]() When Moss, as Cecilia, looks into blank space and sees something, or someone, we can’t, her eyes are the ultimate unreliable narrator. (He’s a tech billionaire and “optics” genius, and he’s played by Oliver Jackson-Cohen.) That’s when her problems really begin: Everywhere she goes-and especially when she’s at home at night-she feels Adrian’s eyes on her. In writer-director Leigh Whannell’s jaggedly effective psychological horror thriller The Invisible Man, Moss plays Cecilia, a woman who flees her abusive, controlling partner and lives in fear that he’ll find her-until she gets word that he’s died and left her a whopping inheritance. When it comes to falling apart, no actor is more together than Elisabeth Moss. ![]() ![]() ![]() MYOB realized the need to “Pull up its Socks” and did so. The new MYOB Cloud Based accounting package is called Account Right. ![]() MYOB is and has been a transparent software package which lends itself to accountants and accounting people. The consequence of these improvement activities are now very evident with a MYOB Accounting package that in competition with XERO resides on the internet. Fortunately MYOB back room boys were working on a new product which they loosely called Huxley.Īll MYOB clients were kept in the picture. In 2011 MYOB became aware that apart from present competition it might have some strong competition entering its Australian market which carried the branding XERO. Reckon continues to distribute QuickBooks – Reckon. When XERO entered the Cloud Accounting market, it did so under its own steam. Both software packages were PC Installed and not via the internet. MYOB has prior to XERO’s entry to the market has had one main competitor – QuickBooks under the flag of Reckon. These clients can be SME’s, Contract Bookkeepers, and Public Accountants and educators. Each year MYOB has convened a Road Show to make direct contact with its clients. Communication with its clients has been paramount and many a Public Accounting office drives on MYOB. MYOB has displayed a face of professionalism in the world of accounting. Since inception, MYOB has continued to improve the product with an awareness of its competitors and a continual propensity to improve the product. MYOB Group Limited was re admitted to the official list of ASX Limited (ASX) on Monday and shares are publicly traded using the symbol - MYO. The acquisition gives Bain Capital a majority stake in MYOB alongside management who will continue to be shareholders in the company. On 21 August 2011, Archer Capital sold MYOB to Bain Capital for an undisclosed amount. In January 2009, a private equity consortium led by Archer Capital completed a takeover bid for MYOB, returning MYOB to private ownership. Acclivity will now drive global development of MYOB's Mac OS business management products - AccountEdge Basic, AccountEdge Pro and AccountEdge Pro Network Edition. and its Mac (and PC) development team from MYOB Limited of Australia. On 6 December 2008, Acclivity announced it acquired MYOB US Inc. Though the company was originally founded in the US, it ceased operations outside of Australia in 2008. In subsequent corporate development, MYOB Limited merged with Solution 6 Holdings in 2004. In 1999, Data-Tech changed their name to MYOB Limited and listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) on 9 July 1999. Data-Tech Software was the Australia republisher of the MYOB products and, in 1997 entered into an agreement with Best Software to buy the company (renamed MYOB, Inc.) and bought the intellectual property rights to the software. Teleware was purchased by Best Software, Inc. MYOB was founded in the early 1980s by Christopher Lee and a team of developers at Teleware, Inc., who developed accounting software. The following history of MYOB is interesting and in a way explains some ups and downs to long standing users. From 1991 MYOB has provided Australia with a reliable and comprehensive accounting software package which continues to service many small to medium business organizations. ![]() ![]() Contributions to Mathematics Comprising Chiefly of the Rectification of the Circle to 607 Places of Decimals.- Hermite. ![]() Memoire Sur Quelques Proprietes Remarquables Des Quantites Transcendentes Circulaires et Logarithmiques.- Lambert.

There is something for all levels of readers in this book, from the 14-year old who may wish to know a little of the history, to the professional mathematician seeking information. it should be something to appear in any mathematical library, as it does contain so much material. 148 (1), 2006) "This is a fascinating reference book, which consists almost entirely of facsimiles of 70 articles about pi, followed by appendices which look at its early history as well as much computational information. Altogether, this volume provides a fascinating overview of many hundred years of research and will delight and enlighten amateur lovers of pi and professional mathematicians alike." (Ch. Furthermore, new translations of articles by Viete and Huygens have been added. This edition contains a new supplement on the recent history of the computation of digits of pi. The articles on pi collected herein include selections from the mathematical and computational literature over four millennia, a variety of historical studies on the cultural significance of the number, and an assortment of anecdotal, fanciful, and simply amusing pieces." (Zentralblatt fur Didaktik der Mathematik, November, 2004) "This is the third edition of a comprehensive selection of about 70 articles on the number pi and related constants. One of the beauties of the literature on pi is that it allows for the inclusion of very modern, yet accessible, mathematics. Beukers, Mathematical Reviews, 2005h) "The book documents the history of pi from the dawn of mathematical time to the present. This book is still a classic work of reference for anyone with an interest in fascinating Pi." (F. contains some notes on the computation of individual (binary) digits of p, some considerations on the normality of the decimal expansion of p, and two more sections on the history of p. Obviously the book is highly recommended." (Michael Berg, MathDL, January, 2001) From the reviews of the third edition: "This is the third edition of the by now classical Pi: a source book. And once it's on your coffee-table, feel free to do more than just browse: it's pretty well-suited for more in-depth study. Pi: A source Book is truly an amazing book, irresistible in its own way, and filled with gems. The seventy articles comprising the source-book proper range from historical articles and classic by such players as Wallis, Huyghens, Newton, and Euler, to the articles on irrationality and transcendence. The authors are to be congratulated on their good taste in preparing such a rich and varied banquet with which to celebrate pi."
