Here we have the poetry of motion, solid grooves to the fore, leaving crystallized trails across a fluttering undercurrent of uplifting rhythm and hooks. Of Tomorrow marks a complete change in dynamics. The album was created entirely by Lawrie at his studio in Shropshire, it is a departure from what the press often refers to as a "wall of throb" when describing the dense merge of noise and sound synonymous with most of The Telescopes output. Of Tomorrow is the 15th album from The Telescopes, and their fifth for Tapete. The first five albums have all been re-issued by renowned labels such as Cherry Red, Bomp!, Rev-Ola, Space Age Records, Weisskalt, Glass Modern, Fuzz Club, and many more. The Telescopes have been cited as an influence on many artists across genres, around the world. Time has shown The Telescopes music not only withstands repeated listening but also reveals something new with each listen, it has been described by the British music press as "more a revolution of the psyche than a revolution of the sidewalk" a thread consistent throughout a highly influential body of work spanning over 30 years. The Telescopes music has constantly pushed at its own boundaries, it overlaps many genres following its own course, inspiration led. The previous album for the label - Songs Of Love And Revolution (TR 480CD/LP) saw a return to the indie charts in 2021, including a Dinked edition with remixes by Anton Newcombe, Lloyd Cole, and Third Eye Foundation. The Telescopes are now with Tapete Records. The Telescopes were initially signed to Cheree Records then moved on to What Goes On Records where they became regulars at the top of the indie charts before gaining more mainstream success on signing to Creation Records. The band's line-up is in constant flux, there can be anywhere between one and 20 members on a recording. The Telescopes are an all-embracing concern that began in 1987, the only constant being sole composer/instigator, Northumbrian born Stephen Lawrie.

The film has already sold $1 billion in tickets and received every theatrical award it has been eligible for since its inception two years ago. The show presents nearly every song as a complex historical concert in which musical pasts are layered on top of musical present. With its use of an American popular music soundtrack and inventive libretto, Hamilton is an unusual mix of American history and current events. It’s safe to say that the musical has cemented its place as a modern classic. Since then, Hamilton has only grown in popularity, with productions staged all over the world and a highly-anticipated film adaptation in the works. The release of the Original Broadway Cast Recording, which topped the Billboard charts and won a Grammy Award, helped introduce the show to a wider audience. But it wasn’t until 2016 that the musical truly broke through to the mainstream. Hamilton quickly became a hit, winning multiple Tony Awards and becoming one of the highest-grossing shows on Broadway. But how long did it take for the musical to find its audience? The show debuted Off-Broadway in February 2015, before moving to Broadway later that year. Blankenbuehler has received Dance Magazine and Drama Desk Awards for his achievement in the theatre, as well as the 2018 Kennedy Center Honors for his work on the musical Hamilton.The Broadway musical Hamilton has been praised by audiences and critics alike, becoming one of the most popular shows in recent memory. Blankenbuehler resides in New York City with his wife, Elly, and two children, Luca and Sofia.

Upcoming theatre projects include the new musical Only Gold with British singer/songwriter Kate Nash, The Secret of Santa Vittoria with writer John Weidman, and the new musical Five Points. Other Broadway credits include Bring It On, 9 to 5, The People in the Picture, The Apple Tree, Annie, and the revival of CATS.

It’s less convenient for me, but it’s more difficult for experienced pickpockets who view open bags or single zippers as easy terrain and rely on stealth and speed to make a hasty retreat. What’s in your anti-pocket inventory? Most items in my collection of commercially produced and handmade products have one thing in common - at least two steps are required to access my belongings. A comprehensive assortment of anti-pickpocket gear Pickpocketing is so pervasive, and most pickpockets are so adept, that identifying appropriate anti-pickpocket gear should be part of a packing strategy for most trips. In fact, in Barcelona, my friend was within seconds of losing her iPhone to a pickpocket had it not been for the heads-up body language of another passenger on the metro. Another friend had been pickpocketed on a crowded bus in Rome. I had witnessed first-hand the damage after a travelling companion lost her wallet to a pickpocket on Lisbon’s notorious Tram 54 the previous year. I was determined to not let pickpockets ruin the experience, and possibly derail the rest of the trip. Barcelona had a reputation for being the pickpocketing capital of the universe. It’s not a huge amount but when travelling on airlines with a 7-kg or 8-kg carry-on allowance, it can mean the difference between going carryon and having to check a bag.Ī trip to Barcelona persuaded me to assess my collection of anti-pickpocket gear. In outerwear with pockets, I’ve stowed 1.4 kg / 3.1 lb of stuff. It’s surprising how much can be carried in clothing with pockets. What you wear doesn’t count against your baggage allowance. Anti-pickpocket clothing can help avoid baggage fees.It presents different options for splitting up cash, financial cards, and identity documents.The right gear lessens the chance of losing something because of disorganization, carelessness, or neglect. Other clothing and accessories with pockets Packing organizers with attachment points They have the versatility to let you start a timer from wherever is most convenient to you, whether that's your browser, a desktop app, or your mobile device. The best time tracking tools make starting a timer easy and convenient. All these apps let you either automatically create invoices from the time tracking data stored in the app or export that information into PDFs, CSVs, or Google Sheets to share with the right people. Once you aggregate all your time spent on your work, you have to be able to take action on it. The ability to create an invoice or export data. The most powerful time tracking apps offer dashboards and reports that let you break out daily, weekly, or monthly time spent per project, per person, or per client. For example, if your phone rings and you jump into a 20-minute consulting call, you might not start a timer, but you do want to log and bill for those hours worked. You also want an app that lets you enter a block of time post hoc in case you forget to launch a timer at all. You should be able to edit the time log to subtract however many minutes you weren't working. The best apps let you correct time tracked after the fact, such as if you accidentally leave a timer running while you take off for lunch. The ability to edit time tracked or manually add time blocks. Nearly all time tracking apps let you track in real time, meaning they give you a running clock that you launch when you start a task, and that you can pause or stop when you finish. When evaluating the best time tracking apps, I considered the following criteria: If you're part of a team, time tracking can help you answer the question, "What have you been working on this month?" What do you do with this information? Perhaps most importantly, project time tracking can help you get paid, allowing you to feel confident about your invoices rather than trying to estimate how much time you worked after the fact. Whether you're working solo or in a small team, time tracking software can give you a complete overview of your daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly work. When you know how you spend your time, you can analyze your work trends and make smarter business decisions.

The Aggies were coming off an independent season in 2013 so the partnership made sense at the time, even if the Sun Belt held all of the cards. "At that time, it did not appear that the votes were there, so to speak, to extend." "Once those presentations were conducted and completed, the executive committee conducted a call to exchange information and share notes and the four had conversations with peers around the league to get what the temperature was," Benson said in 2016. Idaho won the Idaho Potato Bowl last season and the Aggies look to finish with a bowl victory as well although NMSU will proceed as an independent football program and Idaho will play FCS football.

North American Social Networks Conference (NASN)Īustralian Social Network Analysis Conference (ASNAC)Įuropean Conference on Social Networks (EUSN) Networks 2021: A Joint Sunbelt and NetSci Conference ‘Avidemu’ is actually one of the best free audio and video synchronization software that you can use (it’s originally intended purpose is actually to act as a simple video editing & encoding software which comes with in-built filters etc). And the good news is that you don’t have to buy a premium software utility, because thanks to a great (and free) open-source tool called ‘Avidemux’, you can save the audio & video out of sync setting permanently for a lots of video & audio codecs (HD, Blu-ray or even 4K videos!) and container formats (MP4, MKV, FLV, MPEG, AVI etc). Therefore, the most ideal solution is to use a video syncing (synchronization) software to fix it. The problem with that method however is that it only saves the sync setting temporarily, and it will be lost the next time you play it. In any case, the good news is, depending on the OS platform that you are using, there are powerful software multimedia players (VLC, KMPlayer, MPLayer etc) that give you the ability to manually adjust the sync (video or audio) setting, thus you can enjoy the multimedia files without such issues. If it’s hardware based, you should be looking elsewhere. But this method that I’m going to show you, only works if the sync problem lies with the multimedia file. Sometimes syncing issues are also caused by audio hardware devices (sound cards, amplifiers or even buggy headphones etc). This is a pretty common issue in multimedia files and there are many reasons behind its existence, but for keeping the article clear and simple so that anyone can understand its context without having to go through boring technical details, I will not mention them. If the synchronization value is incorrect, then the audio (or the video) is going to be played early or with a delay, compared to the other, which is commonly known as ‘lip-sync’ errors, and it jeopardizes all the excitement, obviously.įor instance, while watching a movie, if you have ever come across situations like gunshot firing sounds coming out before its video scene is displayed, then that is due to an improper audio to video sync. To solve this problem, we can use some third-party converting program such as Pavtube iMedia Converter for Mac to encode iMovie project to AIC(Apple Intermediate Codec), which features high performance and quality, being less processor intensive to work with than other editing formats.‘ Audio to video synchronization‘ is an extremely important aspect of a multimedia file, because when playing, multimedia players rely on it for properly synchronizing the audio and the video tracks. We can easily fixed the first seven issues by ourselves, if there are still no sound in your iMovie project, the problems must be result from the last issue, which means that the some of the video clips you have imported to iMovie are in the MPEG-1 format. MPEG-1 clips will lose audio when you export them as part of your iMovie project. Check to see if any of the video clips you have imported are in the MPEG-1 format.

There must just be some bug somewhere that is messing things up." Is there anything I can do to jolt iMovie to rescan or reimport the contents of the event so that I may work with the files without audio issues? Of note, at the time the files were imported into iMovie everything was fine. When I reveal the clip in the finder there is no problem at all with the clip.

Overall I'm just glad there was finally such a significant female presence in the TF cinematic universe. There is a 12" Titan and a Deluxe Movie figure coming out soon that should hopefully make up for them. These initial two toys aren't a great example of modern Transformer engineering, but I wanted to celebrate this character so I picked them up. But as it was I could just sit back and enjoy the movie. If the movie had used classic well-known villains, I would have spent the entire two hours nitpicking the performance. Shatter and Dropkick (voiced by Angela Bassett and Justin Theroux) formed a classic brains vs brawn that I loved. I read online that she was inspired by the G1 character Nightbird, and I guess I can see that in her face, but otherwise she seems like a wholly unique creation. I just saw the Transformers: BumbleBee movie today and one of the major highlights for me was the original female Decepticon, Shatter.

We’d really like to see checks against accessibility added to it in the future. But Tableau have already said that they’ll be adding more checks in the future. The Workbook Optimiser currently checks against twelve design elements (like number of data sources, unused fields, and number of LODs). This means that you don’t have to be an expert to know how to optimise a workbook- which is especially helpful for authors who mightn’t have had formal Tableau training. While the Workbook Optimiser won’t automatically optimise your workbooks for you, it will highlight elements on your dashboard that aren’t based on best practice. However, there’s little information out yet about how it does this.
I don’t think they were openly racist and discriminatory toward the Chinese community, but their actions were. I don’t think they thought that’s what they were doing. I think there was a high level of racial insensitivity. He also made an impact in the Chinese community who looked at that and thought, “what is going on here?”ĭo you think Cyrus Vance’s office was racist in singling out a Chinese bank that served the local Chinese community, and subjecting them to that perp walk? There was no point in it except for spectacle and trying to make an impact. These are not people charged with dangerous crimes. The walk itself was designed to paint this as a serious case of fraud, “Look at all these people chained together, there must be something terrible here.” They showed a profound lack of sensitivity to those people, and to the Chinese community. Now we’re bringing someone to justice.” That was clearly orchestrated and they came up from Washington to be part of that press conference. who had investigated the fraud with the big banks, as if to say, “Here we are. He had all these federal investigators from D.C. It began with Vance standing before the reporters. I think when you look at that indictment, it was designed to attract the press and be a spectacle. It came after the trial and we were able to include that throughout the whole film.įrom left: Jill Sung, Vera Sung and Thomas Sung in 'Abacus: Small Enough to Jail' directed by Steve James.Ī startling moment is when the Sungs and their employees are subjected to a perp walk. They felt strongly they were innocent, even when we said we would make a real effort to present the case against them if we could get cooperation from the DA’s office. That came through for me loud and clear, and they weren’t afraid of having us tell their story. I believed them to be people of principle and courage and integrity. When I went to New York to film the family, I was just really taken with them. There was an occasional article here and there during the three years between the indictment and the end of the trial, so it seemed pretty important. The New York Times, even The Wall Street Journal wasn’t covering it. That alone was intriguing and no one was covering it. Mark called me and told me the broad details of what had happened - how they discovered the fraud themselves and cooperated, and this is what they were rewarded with, the prosecution. Mark started to look into it and realized they were the only bank being criminally prosecuted connected to the 2008 financial crisis, which Vance clearly connected it to and steadfastly maintains today. They talked to him about what was happening and this trial that they were going to go to, and they couldn’t believe it. I got involved because producer Mark Mitten had known the family for a decade and is friends with them. How did you get involved with the project?

In 2012, Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr. The Sungs’ actions resulted in an investigation of the bank itself, and its leaders. He was promptly fired, and the Sungs - Thomas’s daughters Jill and Vera help run the bank - reported the incident to Fannie Mae, referred the case to the FBI and hired an investigator to root out any more wrongdoing. But in 2009, a loan officer named Ken Yu was found to have falsified documents and accepted bribes by borrowers, setting off the Sungs’ suspicions. |
