![]() And it was weird because he looks the same. I’ve been watching him for decades at this point. I had the most interaction with Paul Rudd. Who were you most starstruck by in this movie? That’s the thing, as some of the projects that I get to do coming up, I have to find a way to not freeze up and get starstruck when I’m around people that I’m a fan of. I have to act like we’re just coworkers or something, and I’m still a fan. Because, any project I go into there’s someone I’ve been watching for years that I’ve never met. The other thing that throws me is getting used to not being starstruck. Would playing Reed Richards qualify as interesting to you? ![]() To get to be a part of it this time is great for me. I wanted to do this movie because I just wanted to see how these things are made. I don’t really have a mission or a goal in how I come back, or if I come back. Jackson Harper: I’m honestly open to anything as long as it’s interesting. Now, I know you can’t tell us if Quaz or any of his Variants will appear in the MCU again, but, hypothetically, if you were to return to the franchise, how would you like to do so? And I bet you probably looked the same ever since it began, but it’s been forever.įans have floated you as a possible choice to play the MCU’s Reed Richards. Enough time for him to build a huge empire and fortress and kick everybody off their land. I feel like it’s several cycles of years, or even decades, of dealing with. If time and physical matter is all a little bit more amorphous and rules are all different, how long could that time actually be? Time works differently, so for me I thought, “Man, wouldn’t it be cool if in this realm the equivalent would be hundreds of years?” Just as a weird thing to think about. Did you learn or ask for specifics about Quaz’s age and how long he’s been dealing with Kang? The Quantum Realm exists outside of space and time, so it’s not clear how long its citizens even live. The rest of you fools, I don’t believe you. I bet you pretty much what she’s thinking about at all times is how to get this dude’s boot off our neck? So it’s like, “Alright, cool. Probably the reason he’s so invested in Jentorra is she says what she’s thinking. So when it comes to even being a part of this whole revolution thing, there are people even on his side he’s like, “It’s a good thing that person’s not in charge.” There’s a way in which he has a lot of answers that a lot of people don’t have. Sometimes I just can’t help but read what’s going on in peoples’ brains.” Marvel Studios ![]() ![]() Or maybe even some of it was kind of awesome. I’m sure as a telepath he probably didn’t understand what was going on and why he was hearing and seeing all these things that just weren’t very nice or a little gross. Jackson Harper: I feel like it comes across, but I think that this is a guy who was probably born over “it” in a lot of ways. But is there anything about the character and his past that maybe doesn’t come across in the movie that was important to playing him? We understand the life he’s had to live since Kang showed up. I wanted to honor what they were envisioning. Peyton and Jeff, they crafted this thing. So I didn’t really want to nod too much to anything else because it’s a brand new character. I took that as a clue perhaps they just wanted to build out this weird world and sort of take the freedom that comes with that. Jackson Harper: I didn’t, because he was a brand new creation. Since Quaz has no direct comic book counterpart, did you turn to any other Marvel Comics characters for inspiration while you were developing the character? I knew they were going to be rendered differently from what I was seeing, but I actually got to interact with people, with the actual characters. And then James Cutler, who played Xolum, he was there the whole time and was doing all sorts of wild stuff that was a lot of fun. He was down low and crouching around, a super tall guy spending the whole day doing this crouching thing and playing the whole scene. David Dastmalchian, who plays Veb, was there. I was interacting with actual scene partners a lot of the time. Jackson Harper: The thing with the filming is there were people who were actually there. What did you do to stay grounded in your performance while filming alongside beings who weren’t there? As one of the Quantum Realm’s humanoids, you had to deal with a lot of CGI characters.

Because this group of nerves is the most superficial, they are the first to be affected by pressure from a slipped disc.ĭamage to these nerves results in the animal being wobbly on his legs. Their main function is to send messages to the brain about the position of the leg and body in space. The most superficial cables are those running from the leg to the brain. The cables making up the spinal cord are organised into groups depending on their function within the nervous system. This concussion can sometimes be seen as spinal cord ‘swelling’. However, it can be very difficult to assess how much bruising has occurred – even with these specialised techniques. Myelography, CT or MRI can help to determine how much the spinal cord is being compressed. It is not possible to say how much each of these components contributes to the symptoms in an individual animal by examination alone. ‘Bruising’ of the spinal cord caused by the impact of the disc as it is herniate (concussion component).Pressure of the herniated disc material on the spinal cord (compression component).The symptoms that develop following disc damage are the result of: ![]() How do I know how severe the slipped disc is in dogs? Dachshunds, Shi Tzu, and Pekingese are the most commonly affected breeds and signs usually develop around two to four years of age. This type of degeneration is mainly seen in breeds with short ‘bandy’ legs (also known as chondrodystrophic breeds) as these breeds are born with abnormal cartilage. If this happens the annulus fibrosus can tear allowing the, now stiff, nucleus to bulge out and put pressure on the spinal cord (disc extrusion). Disc degeneration is more common in the regions of the spine which are particularly exposed to physical stress (the lower neck, mid-back and lower-back).ĭegeneration can also result in stiffening of the disc as the semi-liquid centre becomes dry and loses its cushioning properties. This causes progressive thickening of the dorsal part of the annulus fibrosus which presses up on the spinal cord (disc protrusion). Degeneration of the disc as a result of a premature ageing process.Rupture of a healthy disc can be caused by trauma (such as a road traffic accident, or a fall from height) with tearing of the annulus fibrosus.Patient Care Assistants and TechniciansĪ slipped disc in dogs is a veterinary neurology issue that can happen in two ways:.

Hiking Mississippi's Hidden Waterfalls 11:16:09 AMBy Jim Beaugez. Super fun to visit, the Grand Canyon at Mississippi. I even saw new pieces of roadway that had just collapsed. There are lots of really fun family-friendly day trips from New Orleans. There’s much to recommend at Kyloe, just not the steak.We are a no trespassing sign, is there any way to get to it to see it now?

The experience contrasts directly with my recent visit to the Jones Family Project in London which has complete knowledge and influence over its supply chain or Macellaio who focus on a particular breed of cow from northern Italy and then age the meat in their restaurants. ![]() There is massive risk in not having strict control (and knowledge about the steak you are serving your customers & bringing in guest steaks). This is the tragedy of Kyloe an otherwise exceptional restaurant let down by its supply chain. It’s just such a shame that Kyloe delivered everywhere except for the steak. Everything from the welcome, to the wine recommendations, to the introduction to the steaks, to the handling of our issues and even the little touches like knowing which steak and which sauce to present to each of us demonstrated excellent service. I have to reinforce how exceptional the service was. The wine (medium body Gouguenheim Valle Escondido Blue Melosa 2013) was excellent and even the free bread provided was great. The sides including beef dripping chips, macaroni and cheese were excellent. There was no character, no redeeming quality. However, my refreshed steak was only slightly warmer than the first time around. When the steak returned we noticed that two steaks had been completely refreshed while one had simply been reheated. The management refreshed our sides while we waited. She immediately picked up our plates and send them back to the kitchen. The waitress came over and was mortified. I asked the others if their steak was a bit cold and they all agreed. I eventually carved off a piece and tried it and I was struck by a sensation I have never had at a steakhouse before: a cold steak. ![]() I joyfully carved into the steak but immediately noticed how stringy the meat was. I went for a guest rib eye steak from Henderson farms while the other two went for the stock rib eyes. We decided to go for three rib eye steaks (300gm each). There was one twist in my Q&A which was that restaurant is not sure what breed of cow your steak will be coming from (they come from Scottish cows of the Limousin or Angus breeds). She carried an enormous board of steaks and what followed was one of the best overviews/introductions to a restaurant’s steaks that I have experienced. Our waitress came to our table to explain the different cuts of steak. “Such a delicate touch” ‘Steaksplanation’ The menu is just as flamboyant ranging from rib eyes to bizarre hybrid creations like Highland Wagyu (which is otherwise a Scottish cow with a Japanese accent). It’s lavishly decorated yet playfully references Dali, Warhol, Picasso and even James Bond through portraits of cartoon cows. It sits on prime real estate within a Hotel on the corner of Princes street and in the shadow of a castle. You couldn’t accuse Kyloe of being understated. I looked up to see Edinburgh castle, lit up against the dark sky, imposing itself over Kyloe an Edinburgh restaurant focusing exclusively on Scottish meats. It was late on a freezing November evening, my stomach rumbled and my breath rose like vapour into the night. I was in Edinburgh for 24 hours and desperate to try steak in the land of the Angus and Highland cow. ![]() The above url-parsing code in conjunction with above program will give you filename from Content-Disposition header most of the time. import requestsįilename = getFilename_fromCd(r.headers.get('content-disposition')) The MIME type for files is determined by.

On various occasions during our discussions, I had to explain to my fellow classmates that the communist, Karl Marx, rejected utopian socialism in favor of what he coined “scientific communism.” Marx claimed that changes in the economic structure of the society of his time were the result of class conflicts or class struggles between the capitalists (bourgeoisie) and the workers (proletarians). Contrarily, during my college years in the former Soviet Union, I was well–versed and educated in the Marxist–Leninist subjects: historical and dialectical materialism, scientific communism, scientific atheism, history of the Communist Party and history of the labor movement. What was surprising was that, in spite of sincerely embracing Marxist teaching, the post–graduate students at Brown, one of the oldest and leading Ivy League universities in the country, seemed to know very little about Marxism. authorities and the American public in general. At the time, the West and the Soviet Union were in the heyday of the Cold War every Soviet–like presence was “put under the microscope” by the U.S. It was understandable that I was in the position of frequently having to answer such questions. Follow-up questions were somewhat parochial and usually included: “Alexander, are you a Marxist?” And my usual response to the question was, “No, I am an anthropologist.” Our Eastern European accents and mannerisms set us apart from other students and, not surprisingly, we were questioned frequently by Brown students about our country of origin and upbringing.
