Its American re-titling was probably an attempt to cash in on that year's Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, Commando, which has a similar "one man against a whole army" theme. Commando has had a defining influence on overhead run-'n'-guns, and most games made since have had similar gameplay, controls, mechanics, themes, and level designs. Although vaguely inspired by the old Taito arcade game Front Line, Commando set the stage for several other popular shooters, including SNK's Ikari Warriors, Data East's Heavy Barrel, Saurus' Shock Troopers, and many, many others.
As a series, Senjou no Ookami consists of two games that each originated in the arcades. The first is Commando, and it would receive a sequel five years later in 1990 called Mercs (Senjou no Ookami II in Japan.) Nearly twenty years later, a third installment was released for HD consoles. Besides being extremely influential to overhead run-'n'-guns, Commando and Mercs are both also really fantastic games that still stand out in the genre to this day, while Commando 3 is just merely okay. Commando's high level of quality comes from one of the greatest video game designers ever, Tokuro Fujiwara, who also designed Pirate Ship Higemaru, the Ghosts 'n Goblins series, and the NES and SNES Mega Man games.
Run-'n'-guns have come a long way since Commando, and even though other overhead variants like Pocky & Rocky and Shock Troopers, or horizontal variants like Contra and Metal Slug have arguably exceeded both it and Mercs, the series is still among the best the genre has to offer. Even if you have played the crap out of the original versions, their ports to NES and Genesis, respectively, both have enough original content to merit going back and playing those versions again.
Commando / Senjou no Ookami (戦場の狼) / Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando - Arcade, NES, PC-88, X1, FM-7, Commodore 64, Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Intellivision, MSX, Apple II, IBM PC, Amiga, Amstrad CPC, BBC Micro, ZX Spectrum, PlayStation, Saturn, PlayStation 2, Xbox, PlayStation Portable, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, iOS (1985)
Commando is to overhead run-'n-guns what Contra is to sidescrolling ones. It not only vastly exceeded what came before it, but it also standardized everything that would come to be cliqued in the genre in the years that followed. The controls are also far better than any previous effort entry - in the progenitor Front Line, it was kind of difficult to aim properly due to the fact that enemies couldn't be hit off-center. In Commando, maneuvers such as aiming, moving, and dodging enemy fire are cake to pull off.
In fact, you could look at Front Line as being kind of like the beta version of Commando, as the latter plays very much like an evolved version of the former. Both games exclusively move vertically, both have bullet proof terrain to use as cover, both have one-hit kills, and both have grenades that move in an arc and only destroy things within the radius of their explosion. However, Front Line moves along at a sluggish pace and only has about two or three enemies on screen at once, as any more would be too much to deal with given its pacing, speed, and controls. Commando pretty much just takes that, removes the tanks, fixes the controls, speeds everything way up, and makes the game way busier and much better paced by putting significantly more foes on screen.
Commando's bare-bones plot involves a lone commando named Super Joe being sent in to rescue a few really, really well guarded hostages from an entire army. (You might recognize the name Super Joe as the guy who has to be saved in Bionic Commando - the overhead bonus segments in the NES game are definitely a homage of the original Commando game.) Like most other arcade games of its time, Commando's controls and mechanics are very simple. Your character is moved with the joystick and there are two buttons for your attacks. The first button fires a semi automatic weapon with infinite ammo and the second button throws a grenade from a limited stock. Luckily, you can replenish your grenades along the way by collecting these things that look like building blocks.
What really makes Commando so much better than its predecessors, and what makes it so great today, is its fantastic pacing. The small groups of enemies and horribly slow speed that kept Front Line from greatness are never a problem in Commando. Your character moves along at a perfectly intuitive pace - it's never slow enough to notice even slight speed problems and never too fast to deal with. Enemies steadily pour onto the screen throughout the game, only to be immediately replaced after they are shot. The screen is extremely busy at all times and the action is very chaotic and totally relentless.
In lieu of boss fights, each level ends with a section where a large crowd of enemies is fought in an area without any protective terrain. These sections will invariably have a crapload of bullets and grenades on screen and will put your dodging skills to test. It's best to save as many of your grenades as possible for these sections, because grenades are automatically thrown upward, so you will still be able to fire into the horde without having to pause from shot dodging long enough to aim.
Throughout each level are various obstacles that you can hide behind to avoid enemy fire. These can take the forms of trees, small brick structures, or bunkers, among other things. Nothing will protect you from grenades, but these obstacles are all bullet proof. Making any progress is less of a hassle if you learn to instinctively exploit these objects for protection at appropriate moments. It's also much easier to get through levels if you learn to properly judge enemy positioning and weave through terrain as needed so as to keep obstacles between yourself and enemy bullets as often as possible.
Where Commando might not be for everybody is its difficulty. Getting past the first level is a legitimate challenge and getting any farther than that will take major league twitch gaming skills on a Robotron level. You are going to have to pay absolute attention to where every enemy, bullet and grenade on-screen is at all times and learn to weave between bullets flawlessly. Otherwise, you will be completely obliterated. Making matters even more obscenely difficult is the tendency of even the basic enemies to move in very erratic patterns, so there is never an easy way to predict bullet patterns and never any easy path through this chaos. Enemies often follow a pattern of high-tailing it away from you and briefly pausing to fire bullets and throw grenades at your direction.
Commando is quite minimalistic from a visual standpoint, but its graphics and music actually work quite well, given the theme. Most importantly, every bit of sprite art is easily distinguishable and immediately identifiable as whatever it's supposed to be, and that's really all that matters anyway.
Like virtually any popular Capcom arcade game, Commando has its fair share of ports. The Atari 2600 port is crap in every respect, and the Atari 7800 port is not particularly great, but at least it looks better than you would expect given the hardware. The Amiga port looks almost as good as the original, but it plays horribly. The Commodore 64 saw a port that looks like crap, has tons of bugs, and only has three levels. The music for the C64 port is a "remix" of sorts of the arcade game's theme. It was composed by Rob Hubbard and is among the more popular pieces of music for the platform. The European publisher Elite even produced a version for the low-end computer C16 (Plus/4 in Europe), but this is a rather different game: You only fight a set amount of enemies (which all respawn when you get hit) on each screen, and move on to the next as soon as they are all taken out. There is also a "proper" port for the machine modeled after the C64 version, but it seems to be an unofficial conversion.
The MSX version is also rather disappointing, because it both looks and plays poorly. The Intellivision port might be the worst of them all - its graphics are an absolutely indecipherable mess and it plays disastrously. There are also versions for other 8-bit computers, but they all just straight up suck. Years later, Commando saw an accurate port to the PlayStation and Saturn on the Capcom Generation Volume 4, a disc released only in Japan, which collects Commando along with its sequel Mercs, as well as Gun.Smoke, another Capcom overhead shooter. It features some useless artwork, a small enemy gallery, and two arranged music tracks. This was also released in Europe along with the rest of the Capcom Generation discs in one package. This version was then later ported to the PlayStation 2 and Xbox as part of the compilation Capcom Classics Collection and PlayStation Portable as part of the Capcom Classics Reloaded package. The Capcom Arcade for iPhones and iPad and Capcom Arcade Cabinet for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 contain an emulated version of the arcade game. The Wii Virtual Console contains the original arcade game as well, relabeled Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando, presumably to tie the whole series closer together.
There is also a NES port that has extra hidden areas not found in the original arcade release, which are revealed by bombing certain areas. These might contain hostages, enemies or items, but they can be avoided entirely if you prefer to stick to the carnage. Also not in the arcade version are several hidden items scattered throughout the game that are found by bombing certain areas. These items range from a flashlight that grants your character stealth capabilities, to a bullet-proof vest, to extra lives, and several other items. There are mild graphical and musical modifications made for the console as well, but the gameplay is accurate enough that it is easily among the best run-'n'-guns for the console. Lastly, you are also given the option of continuing from the beginning of the stage after each Game Over, making it easier, but not changing the fact that the game is virtually impossible. Also, the game has sixteen levels instead of the original eight, but the second half is pretty much just an even more difficult version of the first.
Mercs / Senjou no Ookami II (戦場の狼II) / Wolf of the Battlefield: Mercs - Arcade, Genesis, Master System, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum, Amiga, Atari ST, PlayStation, Saturn, PlayStation 2, Xbox, PlayStation Portable, Wii Virtual Console (1990)
Commando's basic concept has been left intact in the sequel, but several changes have been made beyond that. Rather than having multiple lives and getting killed after a lone hit, you have a health bar and it's "Game Over" after it's depleted. You also get vehicles to ride in on occasion, like in Front Line before it and Metal Slug years later. There is a jeep with which you can mow down enemies, a pivoting gun turret, a boat, and a tank. You're invulnerable while riding a vehicle, but the vehicle itself can only take so many hits before it's destroyed. Best of all, this time you can play the game with up to three people at the same time. Pretty much every game is better with multiple players, and Mercs is no different - it's great when played by yourself, and even better with two players, but the game gets really chaotic with three players, and the fun factor improves greatly. Run-'n'-guns are a genre that is often identified with two player co-operative play, but three player co-operative play is virtually nonexistent in the genre. So the sheer novelty of this alone should be reason enough to play it.
You can still move and fire in eight directions, but your weapon fires a wider stream than in Commando, so mowing down groups of enemies is easier, as it doesn't require you to be as precise in your aim. You can also power up your default weapon by finding power up items that make its shot even wider. Besides your default weapon, there is a flamethrower, a spread shot, and a rocket launcher that each are found along the way - each of which has infinite ammo. You still have a limited amount of explosives as a secondary weapon, but Commando's grenades have been replaced with nukes that do almost full screen damage. So hitting your target is cake, and you do not really even have to aim. Perhaps as a result, you get less of these than you had grenades in Commando, and extra bombs are not as easy to come by. It looks awesome though - whenever you hit the "bomb" button, it looks like your soldier is rocking out on an air guitar while causing a huge explosion, decimating all around it.
Mercs offers significantly less terrain to hide behind than Commando, but luckily it's still easy to avoid shots by just walking out of their way. Despite the fact that protecting yourself with the game's terrain is now less important than it used to be, it can become extremely beneficial in certain sections, and the second level has a section where this is absolutely essential. Different terrain might have different properties as well, such as the bullet-proof bunkers that lack any protection from grenades, or the indestructible segments of walls that block rockets but will still let bullets through.
Despite its Japanese title showing it to be a direct sequel to Commando, Mercs was marketed in America as if it were a completely separate game. But like in most video games, Commando's plot is obviously just an excuse to explain why your character needs to blast their way through all that chaos, and Capcom did not deviate from this time-tested simplicity for its sequel. Mercs is about an elite group of mercenaries who are called in to rescue the president after he is kidnapped by revolutionaries while on a tour of Africa. It's explained that the military can't do anything about it because of peace treaties. It's simply amazing that they even felt they needed to explain that logic, given the absurdity of the rest of the plot. Needless to say, this is a plot of astronomically awesome proportions. What it boils down to is this: the president has been kidnapped by revolutionaries! Are you bad enough a dude to rescue the president?
Mercs was made for Capcom's CPS-1 arcade hardware and, as would be expected, its presentation has been given an overhaul from Commando. The graphics run at a much higher resolution, and are easily among the best designed for the hardware - bosses and other larger sprites especially. The animations are sparse, but things like the cliff collapsing at the beginning of the first level and the explosion animations look fantastic. Mercs' music is pretty good for what it is and perfect for the theme of the game.
The only major irritation in Mercs has to do with the utter frustration of the final boss - a giant plane that shoots huge missiles, which are usually fatal with just a single hit. What really makes this fight a pain is that it is timed, and if you do not destroy the plane quickly enough, you have to start the fight all over again. This really wouldn't be a problem, except that you probably aren't going to beat this boss within your first few tries and it really does get more repetitive than is ideal in a game like this. Capcom probably believed this was a novel idea at the time, but it just doesn't work in practice.
Mercs was moderately popular in the arcades and was once again ported to a number of platforms. The Sega Master System version isn't bad, but it's most certainly inferior to the arcade game. The gameplay is reasonably close to accurate, but it looks pretty poor and has no multiplayer. Of the various home computer ports, Amiga and Atari ST prots are the closest to the arcade version, and even support 2-button joypads, but can only be played with up to two players. The Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC and ZX Spectrum ports are each horrible and best avoided. They look like crap and play even worse. Near arcade perfect ports can be found for the PlayStation and Saturn (as part of the Capcom Generations Vol. 4 pack), which also includes an enemy gallery and two arranged tracks. And like Commando, this version was used for the base for the ports to the PlayStation 2 and Xbox (on Capcom Classics Collection) and PSP (on Capcom Classics Reloaded). Strangely enough, the ability to rotate your TV vertically to get the correct aspect ratio is present in the Capcom Generation Vol 4 collection, but removed from the Capcom Classics Collection. In normal play, the screen is letterboxed. On the Wii Virtual console, the game can be found as Wolf of the Battlefield: Mercs.
Genesis owners were much luckier and got an enhanced port of Mercs with a few very cool modifications. It disappointingly lacks multi-player, but it has the option to be played in "Arcade Mode" or "Original Mode," the latter of which is exclusive to this port. There is also an options mode, where you can activate auto-fire and set the difficulty higher or lower. Arcade Mode is based on the arcade version, which it recreates very well. Everything is pretty much identical except for a few bizarre changes like slightly different placement of enemies at a few points, but nothing that most people are likely to notice. The action is put in a window about 3/4 the size the screen, which is annoying, but necessary to maintain a similar aspect ratio to the arcade version. You can also continue five times.
What really stands out about this port is Original Mode. Original Mode has the same basic gameplay, enemies, and weapons as the arcade game, except with completely redesigned levels. Furthermore, Original Mode also has multiple characters (each with their own unique weapon) that are found in tents throughout the course of the game. After meeting them, just pause the game to choose from whoever has joined your party at that point. Each character has his own life bar, but there is no continuing whatsoever in Original Mode, making the difficulty much higher than that of Arcade Mode. Each tent also offers items to purchase with medals that are scattered throughout each level. Needless to say, the Genesis port is pretty great, and would probably be even better than the arcade version if not for the lack of a multiplayer option.
It took them nearly twenty years, but in 2008, Capcom dug up the Commando license and published a new entry in the series, as a downloadable title for the Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network. It was released around the same time as a resurrection of Capcom's 19XX franchise. Both were developed by Backbone Entertainment, in an increasing trend for Japanese companies to farm retro properties to Western developers.
Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3, in a pseudo-clever melding of the Japanese and English titles, is about shooting lots of bad guys. Up to three players can play cooperatively at once, including online. Its most major modernization is that it uses the dual analog sticks to move and shoot independently from one another, removing one of the major obstacles from so many old overhead arcade shoot-em-ups.
And this is unfortunately where the problems begin. Commando 3 tries to modernize itself injecting a bit of cartoony flavor into the proceedings. While the original was based off Vietnam-era war flicks, and Mercs was '80s Schwarzenegger / Stallone / Norris schlock, the kind that took itself way too seriously but were tremendously fun anyway. On the other hand, Commando 3 seems to channel something closer to a goofier version of G.I. Joe. The characters, as shown in the intro and in a few cutscenes, are drawn in comic book style. In game, the male characters are impossibly top heavy, with tiny little legs that carry their muscle figures, wielding huge weapons of destruction. When they get hit, they burst out in Q*Bert style expletives. The final level takes place in a city that is Totally Not Communist Russia, where you fight an evil dictator who is piloting a gigantic mechanical statue. The music is cheesy and catchy, but distinctly un-Japanese like, distancing itself from its predecessor. However, it's also easy to argue that it doesn't change nearly enough. There are so many dual-stick shooters around - especially on the Xbox 360 - that one really needs to stand out to separate itself from the pack. Commando 3 already falls due to to its dull visual design, because outside of the cartoony characters, the environments are exceedingly plain.
There are three characters - including Wolf, who greatly resembles the hero from Mercs, even though he has a different name - each with their own skillsets. Coyote, the sunglasses-wearing Norris tribute, can take more hits but lacks grenades. Fox, a not-so-subtle allusion to Foxy Brown and other blaxploitation heroines, has low health and can't carry many grenades either, but can move fast. In practice, this is a bad idea, because Wolf and Coyote move too slowly - all of them should have been able to run as quickly as Fox. This echoes the feel of Mercs, where your heroes seemed to be almost running in place by barely moving (the treadmill effect) but it's frustrating when you're trying to dodge enemy bullets. The screen clearing mega crashes are still here - and still accompanied by what appears to be the character doing a rocking guitar strum on thin air - and there are now a limited number of grenades, which can be aimed and tossed by the R Trigger.
The game also features familiar looking power-ups - the POW and Mega Crash pickups are now spinning renditions of their 2D sprites - which also channels the old games. Familiar weapons include the machine gun - which still fires out two streams of bullets at once, three if you grab a POW icon - but there are also three-way guns, missile launchers, and flame throwers.
There's an endless supply of enemies - you can destroy the enemy generators, but more always pop out - and a few vehicles segments, where you hop into jeeps or tanks. But the boss fights are lacking. At the end of the first level, you fight a giant tank, where the camera angle changes to an overhead view and the claustrophobic shot patterns seem vaguely like a bullet hell shooter. At the end of the third level, you fight the same giant tank, except now it has a few more weapons. And outside of the final conflict, that's pretty much it. There are only five levels in Commando 3, but each of them is sizably long, and it takes roughly a half an hour to complete. That's fine, especially compared to the brevity of the older games, but it really could have used more setpieces to break up the action. It could have at least featured one instance where you attack a helicopter from the top of a cliff. There are multiple difficulty levels, each which dole out a different number of lives, but there are no continues - once you run out, you start from scratch. Once you beat it once, however, you'll unlock a stage select, allowing you to play any level at any difficulty.
Commando 3 is stuck somewhere in limbo. It's technically a fun enough game, but it lacks focus compared to its contemporaries, and it's not retro enough to evoke nostalgia from the Mercs. Capcom and Backbone should have looked at Sierra's Assault Heroes series, which manages to create a modernized arcade style game that betters Commando 3 on pretty much every level. | entertainment |

The new range of Classic Series luxury digital pianos –
crafted by Japan’s premier acoustic piano company.
Luxurious, elegant, classic – nothing says piano quite like the refined beauty of polished ebony. The evocative character of a silky smooth, rich black cabinet elevates the musical instrument to that of a piece of fine furniture, while simultaneously raising the artistic aspirations of the performer.
Kawai has been creating world-class musical instruments for over 80 years – maintaining traditional handcrafted processes while embracing original ideas, in a passionate quest to perfect the art of the piano.
The new range of premium Kawai digital instruments pursue these very same principles, marrying together stunning polished cabinet parts (meticulously prepared in our own acoustic piano finishing facility) with modern sound and keyboard technologies. The result is the Classic Series – a collection of luxurious, elegant pianos that deliver a truly exceptional musical experience.
Sitting down at the CS6, one quickly begins to appreciate the instrument’s acoustic piano design cues: the gorgeous rich black polished finish, the warm glimmer from the family name’s brushed metal lettering, and the wide music rest complete with simulated leather inlay.
However the CS6 is far more than just a handsome addition to one’s living space, for inside this finely crafted, gleaming black cabinet lies Kawai’s advanced digital piano sound and keyboard action technology, ensuring that this exceptional instrument plays as beautifully as it looks. Ultra Progressive Harmonic Imaging recreates the exquisite tonal character of Kawai’s peerless EX concert grand piano with breathtaking realism, while the RM3 Grand wooden-key keyboard action with Ivory Touch key surfaces and let-off simulation guarantees a remarkably authentic piano playing experience.
Complementing its beautiful appearance, stunning sound, and rewarding keyboard touch, the CS6 offers a selection of digital piano features that further enhance one’s musical enjoyment. USB audio record/playback, Dual and Split keyboard modes, and a rich assortment of instrumental voices add greater variety to players’ performances. Furthermore, the convenient metronome function and integrated classical etudes or Alfred course books ensure that regular practise is both productive and engaging for aspiring pianists.
Luxurious appearance combined with class-leading touch and tone:
Introducing the Classic Series of premium digital pianos from Kawai.
One of the most important characteristics of any piano is its sound. Bright, mellow, dark or warm, a fine piano is detailed and expressive, and inspires the performer to play with their utmost feeling and emotion.
The Kawai EX concert grand piano is widely regarded by professional pianists and piano technicians as the finest instrument of its class. Hand-built by our distinguished Master Piano Artisans at the Shigeru Kawai Piano Research Laboratory in Ryuyo, Japan, each EX instrument undergoes a meticulous regulation and refinement process within a specially designed anechoic chamber. Following this lengthy preparation period, the completed EX piano receives a final series of rigorous quality inspections, before eventually taking pride of place on the centre stage of the world’s most prestigious musical institutions and concert halls.
The beautiful sound of the EX concert grand piano is at the heart of the new CS6, with all eighty-eight keys of this world-class instrument painstakingly recorded, analysed, and reproduced as high-fidelity digital waveforms. Recording each key individually in this way preserves the rich harmonic character of the original EX grand piano, and guarantees that the sound heard when playing one of the CS6’s wooden keys is a faithful representation of the acoustic source.
When playing the piano, the amount of pressure applied to the keyboard affects both the volume of the sound produced, and the unique tonal character of each note. Therefore, in order to gather a realistic acoustic portrait of the EX grand piano, not only is each key recorded individually, but also captured at various different strengths, ranging from gentle pianissimo to thunderous fortissimo. The new CS6 offers a highly detailed acoustic portrait, with Ultra Progressive Harmonic Imaging sound technology ensuring smooth tonal transitions across the keyboard and throughout the dynamic range.
The second most important characteristic of a piano is its touch – how the keyboard responds beneath the finger tips, and the sense of connection that one feels with the instrument when playing.
Embracing many of the long-established principles associated with an acoustic piano, the CS6’s RM3 Grand keyboard action combines realistic materials, motion, and mechanism to recreate the exceptional touch of the finest concert grand pianos.
All eighty-eight black and white keys are crafted entirely from long pieces of wood, with finely textured ivory-like surfaces applied to absorb moisture and assist control. Each wooden key pivots smoothly on a central balance pin, replicating the familiar ‘seesaw’ motion of an acoustic piano action. When pressed, the back of each key triggers a grade-weighted hammer to play the note, while additional counter-weights placed at the front of the bass keys help to lighten their heavier touch during pianissimo passages.
Finally, the CS6’s let-off simulation even manages to recreate the subtle ‘notch’ sensation felt when playing the keys of a grand piano very softly, satisfying the expectations of the most discerning pianists, and underlining the instrument’s unique acoustic piano pedigree.
The CS6 digital piano features a variety of realistic acoustic piano sounds that are ideally suited to playing a wide range of Classical, Jazz, Pop, and Modern musical styles. Furthermore, the instrument’s Virtual Technician function allows players to perform voicing and regulation adjustments at the touch of a button, personalising the tonal character of the piano beneath their fingertips.
Modern USB features allow the CS6 to be connected to a computer for MIDI use, or to load and save data to USB memory devices directly. This USB to Device functionality allows songs recorded and stored in internal memory to be saved to USB for posterity, or standard MIDI files (SMF) downloaded from the internet to be conveniently played back without additional hardware.
USB memory devices can also be used to play back MP3 or WAV audio files, allowing musicians to learn the chords or melody for a new piece, or to simply play along with their favourite songs. It is even possible to record performances directly as MP3 or WAV files for emailing to family and friends, or casual listening away from the piano.
The CS6’s convenient lesson function allows aspiring pianists to learn piano with a collection of songs from the popular Alfred Basic, Adult, and Premier course books. Traditional finger exercises, scales, and warm-up drills are also available, with a companion book of printed scores included to aid one’s practise.
A piano technician plays a very important role for an acoustic piano to be in the best playing condition for a pianist. Our VIRTUAL TECHNICIAN function does the same work digitally. You'll find Kawai's exclusive Virtual Voicing, capable of digitally "voicing" the piano sound. There are also controls for adjusting the action's Touch, String and Damper Resonance, as well as several other piano-specific settings.
You can easily customise your Concert Artist piano's initial settings. Choose a new starting instrument, favourite effect, touch curve, etc. Once you have the piano memorise it then you don't have to go through many buttons every time you turn the power on.
When you layer two sounds (Dual) or use different sounds on the left and right (Split), the balance control is convenient for quick and easy adjustment of the two sounds' balance. Moreover, you can adjust the octave range of the second sound (Layer Octave Shift, Lower Octave Shift) in DUAL and also in SPLIT mode. Also you can set up the dynamic behaviour of the second DUAL sound (Layer Dynamics), to let you avoid having too high a volume on it.
In Four Hand Mode you can split the keyboard in two halfs by having the same octave range on both parts. So two pianists (i.e. teacher and pupil) can play and practise together on only one instrument.
Reverb and Effects
Five distinct reverb types simulate listening environments from private practice rooms to concert halls. Two special reverbs produce a 3D effect, surrounding you with sound from all directions. Digital sound effects such as delays (three types), Chorus, Tremolo and Rotary Speakers (two types) add to the remarkable realism of the Concert Artist sounds. You can adjust the digital effects and - for further use - save.
In addition to the standard metronome click you can choose from 100 drum rhythms for your convenience on the CS6. Play along with a complete drum set. You can load various rhythms and change their tempo. Never before was practising so much fun.

Ok before I get into this I want to make one thing clear: this is without a doubt the most anticipated film of 2015, 100%, no argument! If you don’t agree with this statement then, well, I don’t know that we can be friends. Don’t get me wrong I know Star Wars isn’t for everyone and there are loads of people out there doing the Mockingjay hum for Katniss Everdeen as she rebels against the capital. Put the claws away, I agree that The Hunger Games: Mocking Jay Part 2 is a good film as well, but it most certainly does not have the anticipation and build up of the new Star Wars.
Star Wars Summary
Here is a quick recap of the episodes summarized in chronological order to remind you of the events that have gone on leading up to the new movie:
I – Phantom Menace
Episode I is the worst episode of the Star Wars series according to just about everyone. Never-the-less this is where Anakin is discovered and quickly deemed to be the “Chosen One”, destined to bring balance to the Force. Qui-Gon Jinn who is played by Liam Neeson dies in this movie, which is weird because Liam Neeson is so bad ass that many people have a hard time picturing him dying in movies. But anyways he enters Anakin in a Pod race to free him from that wierd flappy alien dude, Watto, and in miraculous fashion Anakin wins. Anakin is introduced to the Jedi Council led by Yoda and Mace Windu. They are skeptical to train Anakin so Qui-Gon vows to train the boy himself. Padme is the Queen, and her along with everyone’s least favourite character Jar Jar Binks devise a plan to defeat the droid army. During the assault Qui-Gon is struck down by my favourite bad guy in the Star Wars series thus far Darth Maul, the apprentice of Darth Sidious. Darth Sidious lives a double life as Senator Palpatine and an undercover Sith lord. Obi-Wan avenges Qui-Gon’s death and is made a Jedi Knight and he vows to take Anakin under his wing.
II – Attack of the Clones
Anakin who is no longer a young kid but a brash man with a keen eye for Padme and is sent with Obi-Wan to protect her. After an assassination attempt on Padme, Obi-Wan ventures off by himself to discover who issued the attempt. During his adventure he finds there is a massive unknown clone army being built based off of Jango Fett, who happens to be the bounty hunter he has been pursuing all along. Anakin finds out his mother has been captured and goes to rescue her but he is too late. The sand people took her and killed her, in his sadness Anakin murders all the sand people and this is the first real moment where you see the Dark side in him. In the meantime Obi-Wan is in trouble and sends for help so Anakin and Padme come to save the day, however all three end up captured by evil Sith Lord, Count Dooku. They are set for execution when Mace Windu and a team of Jedi’s come to save them along with Yoda and the clone army. In the escape Anakin and Obi-Wan follow Dooku but he out duals both of them and cuts off Anakin’s arm in the process. Luckily Yoda shows up and fends off Dooku to rescue Anakin and Obi-Wan. After the events Yoda is fearful that they have triggered the Clone Wars. The movie ends with Anakin and his new robotic arm, secretly marring Padme but no one can know about it.
III – Revenge of the Sith
Count Dooku, as part of Palpatine’s plan, orders the Separatist Army’s second-in-command, General Grievous to kidnap Palpatine. Anakin and Obi-Wan lead a mission to rescue Palpatine. After beheading Count Dooku and freeing Palpatine the Jedi escape. Palpatine, after seeing the anger Anakin had in him while beheading Dooku, offers to be his mentor. To complicate matters Padme reveals to Anakin that she is pregnant. Anakin is excited about the idea of being a father but begins having visions of her dying as a result of giving birth and he explains this visions to Palpatine. Palpatine, who is trained in the Darkside, tells a story to Anakin about his mentor Darth Plagueis and that he has the power to prevent death. Anakin Reveals this to the Jedi Council and Mace Windu is sent to arrest Palpatine. Anakin torn by the visions of Padme’s death and what Palpatine told him decides to go rescue Palpatine from Windu. Anakin cuts off Windu’s arm and then watches Palpatine electrocute Windu out of a window. Anakin, after aiding Palpatine is now appointed as his new apprentice, Darth Vader. Palpatine, orders the clones to kill the Jedi. Obi-Wan and Yoda are the only Jedi to survive. Palpatine declares to the Senate that the Jedi tried to kill him and it is at this point that he reforms the Senate into the Empire and declares himself Emperor. Obi-Wan, aware of Anakin’s evil confronts him and cuts off his other arms and both his legs, leaving him in a lava field. Luckily for Anakin, and the rest of us the Emperor saves him. Padme dies from child birth but her twins are born, Luke and Leia.
IV – A New Hope
The title speaks a lot to this episode as Luke Skywalker is discovered, although not trained very well in the way of the Force, he is introduced to it by Obi-Wan. With Han Solo and Chewbacca, Obi-Wan and Luke board the Millennium Falcon to help rescue Princess Leia who was captured by Darth Vader. During the rescue Obi-Wan is struck down by Darth Vader in the fight but is able to merge his consciousness with the Force. The Rebels send a fleet of ships to destroy the Death Star and using the guidance of Obi-Wan’s conscious and the force Luke Skywalker is able to destroy the death star.
V – Empire Strikes Back
Luke is sent to Dagobah to meet Yoda who will train Luke in the way of the Force. During his training Han Solo and Princess Leia are deceived and trapped by Darth Vader. Han is placed in Carbon Freeze and taken away by a bounty hunter named Boba Fett, “clone son” of Jango Fett. Luke comes to save his friends, which is all part of Vader’s plan to get Luke to come to the dark side of the Force. Luke and Vader battle, and during the fight Vader slices off Luke’s hand. This is the legendary scene where Luke cries out “I’ll never join you!” and Darth Vader says, “You don’t know the power of the dark side. Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father,” and Luke replies, “He told me enough, he told me you killed him!” To which Vader responds, “No… I am your father.” Luke barley escapes with his life by jumping down an escape ventilator where he is picked up by Leia in the Millennium Falcon. Luke is given a new robotic hand. Hey didn’t something like this already happen?
VI – Return of the Jedi
Han is taken to Jabba the Hutt still frozen. The crew tries to rescue Han but are caught. Leia is taken as a slave of Jabba and Luke is sent to the dungeon of the giant rancor to be treated as a tasty snack. Despite Jabba’s intention Luke kills the rancor and ends up saving Han and the rest of the crew. Vader pays a visit to the new Death Star but it’s completion is behind schedule. Luke visits Yoda who sadly passes away from his old age only to reveal to Luke that he must confront Vader. After Yoda’s death, Obi-Wan reveals to Luke that he has a sister and Luke instantly knows it is Leia (which is weird because they went for a pretty passionate kiss in episode 5). Luke battles Vader again only this time Luke has the upper-hand. The Emperor attempts to transition Luke to the dark side and take the place of Darth Vader, but when Luke refuses the Emperor strikes him with lightning, almost to the point of death until Darth Vader steps in and defeats the Emperor to save Luke. Vader, now Anakin Skywalker again, talks to Luke before he dies exclaiming how Luke has saved him. The Death Star is destroyed and the movie ends with celebration where Luke sees the ghost forms of Obi-Wan, Yoda, and now Anakin, smiling at him.
Episode VII – The Force Awakens
The Good Guys
The new film takes place approximately 30 years after the events of Episode VI – Return of the Jedi. The new movie is going to bring back some of the classics we know and love such as Chewbacca, R2D2, C3PO, Han Solo, Princess Leia and even Luke Skywalker.
From what I have gathered from the trailers and tidbits of information here and there the story will follow Finn; a Stormtrooper who woke up one day and said to himself why am I dressed in this (stormtrooper) suit, it makes going to the bathroom next to impossible and despite the fact that I carry a blaster rifle, my lasers have never actually hit anyone, so he rethinks his life choices as a Storm Trooper and joins the good guys.
The other main character on the good guys side that the story will follow is Rey, a lone scavenger on the planet of Jakku (a new planet in the Star Wars films). Rey has been rumoured to be a Skywalker or a Solo, but this is a major speculation. She will most certainly play a big role in the film and my guess is she is on a quest to find Luke’s (her father) fallen lightsaber, more on that later. She also has a new droid who fans are falling in love with, BB-8.
Then there is Maz Kanata who appears on the cover of the film, but is not seen in the trailers. However she is heard. When you listen to the start of the trailer I posted above, at the beginning a voice asks “who are you?”. It is believed this is Maz Kanata and she is force-sensitive, even perhaps an ex-Jedi (or Sith).
Finaly some Poe Dameron guy is apparently the best pilot in the galaxy, despite never bulls eyeing whomp rats in his T-16 back home. Regardless he will have a big roll.
The Bad Guys
The antagonist in the film or the main bad guy is a character known as Kylo Ren, who has a really cool lightsaber. The lightsaber has caused a lot of stir among fans because of its unusual cross guard design. This is unlike any other lightsaber we have seen before, even Darth Maul’s double ended saber and that is for good reason! The lightsaber is something that Ren supposedly built himself.
Characters names in Star Wars are often used to represent something. You’ll remember that Darth Vader was once Anakin Skywalker but when he became Darth Vader his name actually translates into Dark Father. Kylo Ren is not his actual name, much like Darth Vader was not Anakin Skywalker’s actual name. The Ren part comes from a group he joined known as the Knights of Ren. As to who the Knights of Ren are, well, that is something you will have to wait to find out, but it seems to make sense that they are a reborn version of the Sith and anyone who is apart of it get’s the name Ren. Just like the Sith with Darth, get it? The obvious story behind the character is that Kylo is a Vader obsessive and wants to follow in his footsteps, even though he was born long after Vaders death.
Then there is Captain Phasma who appears to show similarities to Boba-Fett, in that they have different armour and seem to be skilled fighters. The character is played by Gwendoline Christie, you may recogonize her from the TV series Game of Thrones, and she is obviously someone you don’t want to mess with.
Then there is General Hux, leader of the First Order’s (the new, revamped name for the Empire) Starkiller Base, which is the new version of the Death Star. It is tough to say where General Hux will fall into place and how big of an impact he will have.
Finally, there is Supreme Leader Snoke, who, much like Maz Kanata, has been kept secret. There are a lot of fan theories revolving around Snoke but the general consensus is he will definitely have a big role in the films. He is a CG-rendered character but there has not been a unveiling of what he will actually look like. My guess is he is actually Emperor Palpatine’s old master Darth Plageuis who has been the mastermind behind so much of what we know of the dark side of the Force, but that is a guess. Either way I am excited!
There has been a lot of speculation as to what is going to happen, but at this point it is all speculation. I was torn when writing this whether I should include what I am about to and that is the unknown role that Luke Skywalker is going to play. He hasn’t really been shown or talked about in the trailers. In fact the only scene where we think we see him in the trailer we don’t actually see his face, only his robotic arm and R2-D2.
The other big area of focus is what happened to Luke Skywalker’s first lightsaber that he lost in the battle between with Darth Vader on Cloud City in Episode 5. Someone has salvaged the lightsaber and everyone is eager to know who it was and what role they will have. Still the big question remains what will Luke’s role be? Has he gone into hiding knowing that he is the last Jedi, or has he created the Knights or Ren to try and bring balance to the Force, or will he follow in his father’s footsteps and join the dark side? Well, I guess we will just have to wait and see!
That’s a Wrap
All-in-all I have never been more excited in my life to watch a movie in theatres than I am for this one and hopefully now you are too. I have tried to equip you with all of the knowledge you need before heading out to see this masterpiece, without spoiling it. I think we can expect that Disney realizes the impact these movies have had and will do a fantastic job to put together a great film. Christmas comes a week early in 2015 for many with the release date on December 18th… See you then!
Oh PS I didn’t want to relate this specific article to insurance, even though I work at an insurance brokerage, because come off it, right? We do other things, it’s not like our entire life revolves around insurance. But I did a quick Google search and found that for Han Solo to insure the Millennium Falcon in our galaxy it would cost him $10 million a month! This is based on; his commute to work one way of slightly less than 12 parsecs, the average cost to replace the vehicle, his driving record (he has two speeding tickets and an at fault accident when he rear ended an asteroid) along with several other factors! So consider yourself lucky you don’t have that bill each month! To talk more Star Wars, or insurance you can always give us a call at 1-800-361-0941 or leave us a comment below!

Platform sneakers as a functional footwear choice for sports activities

Platform sneakers in LGBTQ+ communities
Platform sneakers have found a significant presence within LGBTQ+ communities as a means of expression and solidarity. They represent a visual symbol of the diverse range of identities and styles within the community, fostering a sense of unity and acceptance.

Platform sneakers as a representation of youth and rebellion
Platform sneakers have become synonymous with youth and rebellion in popular culture. Rooted in punk and subversive fashion, they embody a sense of youthful energy, defiance, and nonconformity. Platform sneakers challenge traditional beauty standards and societal norms, allowing individuals to rebel against the established order while embracing their own unique style. They have become an emblem of rebellion that can be seen in various forms of popular media, including music, movies, and fashion.

The multi-platform series revolves around four talented My Gym teachers, all with their own unique physical skills, whose mission is to engage preschoolers in physical activity.

My Gym Children’s Fitness Centers help more than a million children stay active and physically fit each year through its 200+ worldwide locations.

In this article, we embark on a journey through the whirlwind of Crazy Time, exploring its mechanics, charm, and why it has become a sensation in the world of online gaming Source.
A Carnival of Wheels and Fortunes: The Concept Behind Crazy Time
Crazy Time is not your typical online game; it’s a virtual carnival where players are treated to a spectacle of spinning wheels, flashing lights, and a vibrant studio atmosphere. At its core, Crazy Time is a game show-style experience, complete with a charismatic host, engaging visuals, and the promise of substantial cash prizes.
The Wheel Quartet: Breaking Down the Game’s Elements
Crazy Time features four colorful and dynamic wheels—Coin Flip, Cash Hunt, Pachinko, and Crazy Time. Each wheel represents a different bonus round, adding layers of excitement and unpredictability to the game. Players place their bets on the outcome of these bonus rounds, creating an engaging and dynamic betting experience.
Spinning into Madness: The Unpredictable Nature of Crazy Time
One of Crazy Time’s defining features is its inherent unpredictability. The outcome of each spin is influenced by a combination of RNG (Random Number Generator) technology and player choices. This dynamic blend ensures that every session is a rollercoaster of emotions, with the potential for substantial wins and unexpected twists at every turn.
Showtime Strategies: Navigating the Chaos with Finesse

With a charismatic host guiding players through the game, colorful visuals, and an energetic soundtrack, Crazy Time goes beyond traditional online gaming. It recreates the ambiance of a live game show, turning each session into a truly entertaining and interactive experience.
Craze and Community: The Social Aspect of Crazy Time
Crazy Time isn’t just about individual gameplay; it’s a social experience. Players can engage with the host, interact with each other through live chat, and share the excitement of wins and bonuses. The sense of community adds an extra layer of enjoyment, making Crazy Time not just a game but a shared adventure.

This uber-fun interactive exhibit-room includes all things that drive, fly, and roll. Fun for kids of all ages; this room features a life-sized SmartforTwo car, a 37-foot roller vehicle test course, a build-your-own Matchbox car race course, giant seven-foot tall tires, climbing rope-net and slide, parachute launchers, a pulley-enabled ceiling ball course, and more! This is a fun one for children and adults alike!
Carnegie Science Center
Located in the Highmark SportsWorks exhibit, the new Ropes Challenge will test your bravery as you defy gravity while navigating this high-above-ground obstacle course. There's even a built-in zip-line feature. Learn about the science of climbing as well as the physiology and perception of fear and thrill. The best part about this exhibit feature is that adults and kids alike can experience this thrill--but you must be at least 48'' tall. Have littles? They can experience the fun, too; SkyTykes is designed for visitors under 48'' tall who want to adventure a little closer to the ground.
The National Aviary
Hang out with the National Aviary's 20 African Penguins. This $1.7 million exhibit allows guests to experience the sights, sounds (and smells!) of a real penguin colony in this 360-degree perspective exhibit. These penguins are active little guys and gals--catch them waddling, squabbling, and splashing around.
Kennywood Amusement Park
Kennywood has a ton of big-name coasters, but this one is a throw-back classic that you MUST ride! This classic John Miller coaster is the only single track, racing wooden coaster in the United States; it is designed with a reverse curve so riders begin on the right and finish on the left. So, pick either the green train or the red train and see who's coaster gets to the finish-line first on this 2,400 foot track! Riders must be at least 46" tall to ride this one. Have littles? Check out the Lil' Phantom coaster located in Kennywood's beloved Kiddie Land.
Sandcastle Water Park
We love this tube slide because you can ride with a partner! The Blue Tubaluba was Sandcastle’s first dual rider slide. On this 450-foot slide, riders experience the water thrills of misters, waterfalls, and total darkness before their splash-landing in a 4 foot deep pool. Riders must be 48" and a capable swimmer to slide. | entertainment |

This week I sunk some time into further finishing and polishing the tactics puzzle mode. It’s more performant, has a big new feature, and has more varied puzzles.
Performance wise, puzzles still take roughly fifteen seconds to generate, but I’ve implemented a multi threaded Consumer/Producer pattern to get around this. While the player is solving one puzzle, a background thread generates new puzzles and enqueues the new puzzles into a thread safe queue. When the player needs a new puzzle, the main game thread pops one of the pre-made puzzles off the queue. From the player’s perspective, new puzzles are generated instantly.
The new feature is a puzzle solution screen. Previously, when the player failed a puzzle the game would just move onto the next puzzle with no explanation of why the player’s moves were wrong or what the correct solution was. I still haven’t done anything about the first issue, but now the game will explain the optimal solution. The player can step through the moves of the solution, seeing the board for every move.
I’ve added procedurally generated walls to the two-on-one puzzles. More kinds of tactics emerge now.

It was called the "Liberty Bell" and was a simple three-reel machine with five symbols, including horseshoes, diamonds, spades, hearts, and a Liberty Bell.
History of slot machines
A historical guide to traditional slot machines and how they have expanded to online versions.
How did slot machines first appear?
The history of slot machines dates back to the late 19th century, when a man named Charles Fey is credited with creating the first slot machine. Fey was a mechanic who lived in San Francisco and is said to have created the Liberty Bell, a three-reel slot machine with symbols such as diamonds, hearts, and the Liberty Bell itself.
The Liberty Bell was an instant success and soon became a popular attraction in bars and saloons across the United States. It was also the first slot machine to use a lever to spin the reels, which earned it the nickname "one-armed bandit."
In the decades that followed, slot machines continued to evolve and become more sophisticated. In the 1930s, Bally Manufacturing Corporation introduced the first electromechanical slot machine, which used a motor to spin the reels and eliminated the need for a lever.
In the 1970s, slot machines began to use computer technology to generate random numbers and determine the outcome of each spin. This led to the development of video slot machines, which featured five reels and a larger number of paylines.
Why are slot machines called one arm bandits?
Slot machines are often referred to as one-armed bandits because they were originally designed with a lever on the side of the machine that was used to spin the reels. This lever earned the machines the nickname "one-armed bandit," as it was similar to the arm of a robber or thief.
The one-armed bandit nickname became popular in the early 20th century, when slot machines were first introduced in bars and saloons. These early slot machines, such as the Liberty Bell, were mechanical devices that used a lever to spin the reels.
The one-armed bandit nickname stuck and is still used today, even though most modern slot machines do not have a physical lever. Instead, they use buttons or touchscreen controls to spin the reels.
Despite the absence of a physical lever, the one-armed bandit nickname is still used to refer to slot machines, and the term is recognized by many people around the world.
When did online slot machines become available?
The history of online slot machines dates back to the late 1990s, when the first online casinos began to emerge. These early online casinos offered a limited selection of casino games, including slot machines, that could be played on desktop computers.
In the years that followed, the technology behind online slot machines improved and the selection of games expanded. Online slot machines began to use sophisticated graphics and animations, and more and more developers began to create games for the online market.
One of the major innovations in online slot machines was the introduction of progressive jackpot slots, which allowed players to win large sums of money by landing a specific combination of symbols. These progressive jackpots often linked multiple slot machines and even multiple online casinos, allowing the jackpots to grow to very large amounts.
In the early 2000s, online casinos also began to offer live dealer games, which allowed players to experience the excitement of a real casino from the comfort of their own homes. These games are streamed in real-time and feature real dealers running the games.
Today, online slot machines are a major part of the online gambling industry and are available at a wide range of online casinos. They are popular with players of all ages and can be played for free or for real money. | entertainment |

Also, a significant increase in deaths among celebrities and famous personalities made fans upset with forceful farewells to their favourites. One among them was the legendary choreographer Saroj Khan, who left for the heavenly abode on July 3, 2020.
On the completion of her first death anniversary, T-Series head honcho Bhushan Kumar has announced a biopic on Saroj Khan. Bhushan stated that Sarojji revolutionized the choreography scene in Hindi cinema. Describing her immense and irreplaceable talent, he said that Saroj dance forms told stories which helped every filmmaker.
Her essence of dance is to tell a story while tying the viewers with emotions. Recalling her unique prowess of retelling lyrics with her dance movements, Bhushan Kumar said that Saroj dragged audiences to the theatres to see their favourite actors dancing to her steps. “Sarojji’s journey that started as early as a 3-year-old was met with a lot of ups and downs and the success and respect she gained from the industry has to be brought to life. I remember visiting film sets with my father and seeing her bring life to the songs with her choreography. Her dedication towards the art was commendable. I am glad Sukaina & Raju agreed to let us make this biopic of her mother.”
Talking about the biopic, Saroj’s son Raju Khan expressed his happiness and said that he is glad to see Bhushan making a film on his mother, who dedicated her whole life to the dance and film industry. Her daughter Sukaina said that the biopic will hopefully be able to tell Saroj’s inspiring story to the world. People have admired her dance all the years and with the news of her biopic, netizens are looking forward to seeing their dancing icon’s story on big screens.

Molti giornalisti sono rimasti soddisfatti dal lavoro della regista Nia DaCosta, soprattutto per quanto riguarda le scene d’azione (e musical), la dinamica tra le tre protagoniste – che regala anche momenti intensi ed a volte teneri – e l’umorismo.
Vengono inoltre lodate le interpretazioni delle tre attrici, sopratutto di Iman Vellani (Ms. Marvel), che è “destinata a brillare nel MCU“.
Nonostante i pregi, alcuni giornalisti hanno criticato la storia principale e la frenesia con cui viene raccontata non ha convinto tutti, in quanto alcune scene non si collegano in modo fluido l’un l’altra ed erano necessari alcuni approfondimenti che invece mancano. Inoltre, la villain (interpretato da Zawe Ashton) non ha convinto appieno la critica.
Inoltre, proprio come anticipato dai trailer, si tratta di un film pesantemente connesso alla storia principale dell’Universo Cinematografico Marvel ed al Multiverso, con una scena post-credit che ha lasciato a bocca aperta gli spettatori.
Di seguito alcuni commenti positivi e negativi:
Nia DaCosta’s #TheMarvels is a great time at the movies! It’s well paced & full of frantic, hilarious energy. I even liked it more than 2019’s #CaptainMarvel. This thing moves! The location-swap action is a blast & the end credits scene is 😱 . I’m definitely a fan.
—This film is so much fun and exactly what a comic book movie should be. It’s funny, silly, short and sweet, action-packed. Loved the cosmic sci-fi moments. Plenty of MCU interconnectivity without being overbearing.
#TheMarvels worked for me. Female Avengers team-up movie packs in chuckles, cats, hairballs, and musical sequences. Much more episodic than a cinematic endeavor, but I think that's its greatest strength. Great post-credits. Loved my leading lady trio. Great visual effects. Jersey… pic.twitter.com/uWk9w4M4Og
We just saw #TheMarvels – full review tomorrow, but it’s one of the most surprising movies of the year, bringing fresh air to the MCU, as well as some jaw dropping moments that will have audiences screaming. Don’t sleep on this movie! – Connor Webber/Attractions Magazine pic.twitter.com/C20wDEXEUu
#TheMarvels is the most fun I’ve had watching a superhero movie in a while! It’s hilarious, action-packed & full of girl power. Kamala was a stand out & so many moments surprised me. There was a great balance of the team, while dropping shocking bombs that will change EVERYTHING. pic.twitter.com/Zj6Lbc5xKn
With #TheMarvels, Nia DaCosta brings a much-needed shot in the arm the MCU's needed for a long time. The film's brevity is its biggest superpower, stripping back to basics with amazing chemistry between leads (Vellani's a STAR) and creative action without world-building baggage. pic.twitter.com/2GfPU3F4QQ
#THEMARVELS is short, sweet, and a hell of a lot of fun. The main trio is a blast together and it's great to have action sequences that are exciting again. Probably the most charmed I've been by a MCU film since No Way Home, and I can't wait to see what this film leads to… pic.twitter.com/BA8lkRCjU8
#TheMarvels is so much fun, action-packed goodness, but genuinely hilarious and exciting to watch from start to finish. I love my girls so much and seeing them fight all three together truly is so special. Higher, further, faster baby! pic.twitter.com/epEroO2ClU
Nia DaCosta’s #TheMarvels is a delight! The power-swapping plot is cool & all, but the real fun comes from the stellar chemistry between Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris & Iman Vellani. Low stakes aside, it delivers some of Marvel’s best action & comedy to date! See it with a crowd 👀 pic.twitter.com/Qz8k9j6nAm
it’s no secret i adore captain marvel and wandavision, so #TheMarvels is something i knew I’d have fun with. brie larson, teyonah parris, and iman vellani’s chemistry made this one for me — they had superb comedic timing together but also beautifully worked in the touching scenes pic.twitter.com/BRYh2fcaDm
#TheMarvels flies higher, further and faster than the first movie! Iman Vellani, take a bow. Easily the most fun I've had watching a Marvel movie since Spider-Man: No Way Home. pic.twitter.com/labCXnNEta
#TheMarvels is a good time at the movies. Definitely not everything works, and there are two cringe-inducing sequences that threaten to derail the whole thing. BUT DeCosta can direct action sequences, it’s never boring, and the leads are all very good. 👍 pic.twitter.com/sWmy19NAum
I went into #TheMarvels with extremely low expectations and it wasn't half bad. Iman Villani and Teyonah Parris are easily the highlights. Love their chemistry with Brie Larson. Unfortunately, the story is a huge mess with an underutilized villain and an underwhelming finale. pic.twitter.com/71xYG2B3NJ
In a year that gave us the big low of Quantumania and the high of GotG 3, #TheMarvels is a solid middle of the path, entertaining MCU installment. Fun and funny and built around a likable team dynamic though not special enough to overcome many of those now superhero cynical. pic.twitter.com/Izb8iEaPqs | entertainment |

It starts with a telegram. MGM wires young Lucille LeSueur to tell her that she's been placed under contract at a princely $75 a week, and is expected to report immediately to Hollywood, California. A fresh-faced 17-year-old with big eyes and an air of elegance, she would go on to become one of the greatest stars in Hollywood history: the fabulous Joan Crawford.
Through four marriages, countless cocktail parties and more than 100 appearances in film and television, Joan lived the life of a legend from the first day she stepped onto the back lot. After becoming famous in the silent era, by 1938 she was dubbed "Box Office Poison," and her career was considered over - but Crawford never quit. Over the next 40 years, she clawed her way back to the top, and in this engaging autobiography, she tells her story - her way.

This highly addictive slot game promises to be the biggest jackpot winner of all time. If you have not yet checked out the huge amount of big jackpots on this slot machine, then you are definitely missing out on a lot. In just one sitting, you could conceivably expect to earn more than what you earn in an entire week with the traditional slot machines. You really need to check it out today, while there is still time left to take advantage of this huge jackpot.
Rise of Egypt is widely known as the world’s first real-time slot game. The exciting action and graphics of this slot game make it one of the most popular online slot games today. If you love exciting and colorful graphics, this is definitely the slot game for you. You can play it for absolutely free right here in Slots Temple.
The game is based on the highly popular Egyptian theme and is fairly easy to understand. When you initially load up the rise online slot machine, you will be greeted by an Egypt themed visual sequence. You will notice several items strewn about the screen which give help in identifying the location of the slot machines. There are various icons present on the screen, which represent different things like jackpot icons, gift icons, money icons and even virtual machines. Once you get familiar with the layout, the rest of the tasks become relatively easy.
You start off by choosing a Egypt slot machine and choose a symbol that represents that. A red number appears on the top-right portion of your screen and this denotes that you are next to a win. You then see a sign that informs you that you are further ahead than the last person to win and the numbers start to increase one after the other. As you move on, the Egypt slot machine starts to move and soon enough, a prize appears on the screen. Once you win, the amount that appears will be adjusted on the screen giving you an exciting thrill.
Unlike other slot games, where you have to pay real money to play, the game of rise simply requires that you play at a fixed location for a fixed amount of time. It can either be night or daytime and it depends on the specific time that is posted over there. The benefit of this is that there is no need for you to worry about whether you are going to be able to make it to the game on time since you always know that you are just a few steps away from winning real money. The other great thing about the rise of Egypt slot machines is that you don’t have to pay to load the machine; rather, you only have to pay when you start the game.
This means that you get to avoid the expensive insertion fee when playing rise. Apart from this, the benefit that you can get from the benefit of re-routing a line bet is also very beneficial and can save you real money if you are able to save up and take the loss of some jackpot instead of trying to make a winning combination out of the symbols displayed on the Egyptian slots machine. The benefit of this rise of Egypt slot machine also applies to the paylines; if you play the slot game, you don’t have to place your bet in just one line, but you can place it in several lines which will let you reap in more real money than what you would have if you had played the regular machines. | entertainment |

After an incredible journey in New York that concluded with her triumph over Leylah Fernandez and the title of Britain's new tennis queen, the 19-year-old finally had the opportunity to showcase her talent on home soil. The historic Victorian concert hall served as a fitting stage for her exhibition match against Romanian player Elena-Gabriela Ruse, although the stakes were considerably lower compared to her groundbreaking Grand Slam win as a 150th-ranked qualifier.
Nevertheless, the crowd gathered at the Champions Tennis event came with a singular purpose: to witness the rising star, Emma Raducanu. From relative obscurity, she has emerged as one of the world's most marketable athletes, captivating audiences worldwide.
This marked Raducanu's first match in her home country since her memorable Wimbledon debut in July, which unfortunately ended prematurely due to breathing difficulties in the fourth round against Ajla Tomljanovic from Australia. However, there was no such drama during her light-hearted hit-around with her friend and practice partner, Elena-Gabriela Ruse, who holds the 85th rank in the world.
Spectators in the 150-year-old venue were treated to engaging rallies and lighthearted banter between the pair. The atmosphere was filled with excitement, exemplified by a young fan who playfully shouted, "Emma, will you marry me?" | entertainment |

propelled her to stardom through his films. Guru Dutt’s films are marked by certain kind of nostalgia, most evident in Chaudvi Ka Chand (1960) and Sahib, Bibi Aur Gulam (1962). In all of his films, Guru Dutt has shown mastery over cinematic elements, from lighting and camera-work to film composition; and every film bears the unmistakable imprint of his work. His brilliant career came to a premature end with his suicide, following a protracted struggle with alcoholism, in 1964. K.L. Saigal: He (1904-47) is regarded as the greatest singer of the century. He was a musical genius who became a legend in his lifetime. His first recording was ‘Jhulna Jhulao’ by Hindustan Records of Calcutta in 1932. As an actor-singer, Saigal attained unprecedented fame and popularity through New Theatres’ productions beginning with ‘Chandidas’ in 1934, followed by Devadas in 1935. His first ghazal ‘Nukta-chin hai game-dil’ in the film Yahudi Ki Ladki (1933) became a countrywide sensation. Saigal loved Urdu poetry and he created a new fusion of the music and the poetry. The great Urdu poet Mirza Ghalib was his favourite. Saigal rendered Ghalib’s ghazals in his immortal voice in the famous movie Mirza Ghalib produced by Sohrab Modi in 1954. Lata Mangeshkar: She is the indisputable and reigning queen of the Indian film music. She started off as a singing actress in the Marathi film Pahili Manglagaur. Her first Hindi song, which was picturised on her, was a patriotic number for Marathi film Gajabhau in 1944, but the first mainstream Hindi song was for the film Aap Ki Sewa Mein. She acted in some Marathi and Hindi films but later restricted herself only to playback singing. She has several honours and awards to her credit including Padma Bhushan, the Dada Saheb Phalke Award and the Fellowship of the Sangeet Natak Akademi. The Madhya Pradesh government has instituted an annual Lata Mangeshkar Award in her honour. Madhubala: Known originally as Begum Mumtaz Jehan (1933-69), she created a sensation in the Hindi cinema with her beautiful face and characteristic smile. Her first major hit was Kedar Sharma’s Neel Kamal (1947). Her other memorable films include Mahal, Amar, Mr and Mrs 55, Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, Howrah Bridge, Jhumroo, Kala Paani and Mughal-e-Azam. She died in 1969 at a young age of 36. | entertainment |

However, amidst all the hype surrounding the latest releases, it is important to remember the unforgettable classics that have shaped the industry and left an indelible mark on gamers around the world.
One cannot talk about iconic video games without mentioning the revolutionary impact of “Super Mario Bros.” Released by Nintendo in 1985, this side-scrolling platformer introduced players to the mustachioed plumber Mario and his quest to rescue Princess Peach from the villainous Bowser. The game’s impeccable level design, tight controls, and catchy soundtrack set a new standard for the industry, inspiring countless future platformers and endearing itself to generations of gamers.
Another game that cannot be overlooked is “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.” Released for the Nintendo 64 in 1998, this action-adventure title revolutionized the industry by introducing a sprawling 3D world for players to explore. With its engaging story, innovative gameplay mechanics, and memorable characters, “Ocarina of Time” set a benchmark for future open-world games and solidified the franchise’s status as a gaming legend.
For fans of first-person shooters, “DOOM” is an absolute classic that cannot be forgotten. Developed by id Software in 1993, this game pioneered the genre by introducing fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled action in a 3D environment. With its intense gameplay, creative level design, and modding capabilities, “DOOM” set the stage for the explosion of first-person shooters that followed, leaving an enduring legacy that can still be felt in games today.
While these titles represent a fraction of the unforgettable classics, their impact on the video game industry is undeniable.

In addition to their technical achievements, these games also hold a special place in players’ hearts, evoking feelings of nostalgia and serving as a reminder of the joy and wonder that video games can bring.
Furthermore, the impact of these classics extends beyond the gaming community. As video games have become a mainstream form of entertainment, these games have transcended their original audience, becoming cultural touchstones that have influenced movies, music, and other forms of media. The iconic imagery of Mario, the heroic quest of Link, and the adrenaline-pumping action of “DOOM” have become ingrained in popular culture, ensuring the lasting legacy of these games for years to come.
In conclusion, exploring the impact of iconic video games from the past allows us to appreciate the role they played in shaping the industry and the memories they have created for gamers worldwide.

We understand you have cabin fever, but there are many ways you can still enjoy date night without leaving your home or even virtually. Date night is just a fun evening designed to bring you and your significant other together and release the stress of life.
We’ve put together five fun date night ideas you can do within your home.
Enjoy Candlelit Dinner
Is there anything more romantic than a candlelit dinner and pleasant conversation. You don’t need a fancy restaurant. Prepare something special together and sit at your kitchen table with the lights off and only the soft glow of candles or decor lights.
Have a few glasses of wine and end the night with your favorite movie. If you’re separated, then do it virtually through Zoom or other video conference programs. Cook the same meal and talk via phone or laptop.
What’s important is that you’re together and enjoying each other.
Wine and Beer Tasting
If you want to have fun and get a little tipsy at the same time, then create a wine and beer tasting for date night. Each of you goes out and buy a variety of beers and wines and taste them together. You’ll laugh as one loves the drink and the other makes a disgusted face.
If you’re doing it virtually, then tell each other what drinks to get and see each other’s reactions. We guarantee after a few tastings, you’ll feel great and have a fun evening.
Create a Drive-In Theater in Your Backyard
The days of drive-in theaters may be over, but with theaters closed, you can relive the glory days in your backyard. All you need is a large sheet you can put up and projector. There are many available and some places even rent them out.
Pull your car up or set up a few chairs and watch classic drive-in movies or your favorite hits without ever leaving your house. Have some drinks and pop some popcorn for an amazing date night.
Plan a Future Vacation
COVID-19 may have put a dampener on summer vacations, but this will be temporary. Why not look ahead and talk about places you’d love to visit for your dream vacation.
Get on your laptops or your phone and discover amazing places in the world. Check out hotels and places to eat. Talk about all the different ideas and places you’d like to visit.
You don’t need to make any decisions. You explore each other’s fantasy vacations and get great ideas for your next trip.
Binge Watch A New Show
With streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney +, hundreds of television shows and movies are available to watch from beginning to end. You can binge-watch the Star Wars movies or a series you’ve both been interested in, but never had the time to watch.
Enjoy them with a few glasses of wine and cuddle on the couch.
Just Enjoy Each Other
Date night is a stress-free time where you enjoy each other whether it's together or virtually. If you need drinkware or gourmet foods, then check out our site and find the perfect glasses or fine foods for your date night. | entertainment |

It encompasses recording, editing, and mixing sounds to deliver a professionally polished audio piece. The endeavor demands deep understanding of sound equipment and software, combined with a sharp ear and keen attention to nuances. The core aim is to faithfully represent the sound's soul—be it musical notes, spoken words, or ambient sound effects—and to amplify its clarity and impact. Leveraging diverse microphones, mixers, and digital tools, audio producers tailor soundscapes specific to a project, whether it's for a cinematic experience, a gripping podcast, or a soulful music track. In essence, audio production stands as a pivotal pillar in the creative journey, refining and enriching the auditory experience for its audience.

Mixing & Mastering
Mixing is the art of blending multiple audio elements into a harmonious, well-balanced final piece. A mixing engineer tweaks aspects like volume, spatial placement (panning), EQ, and special effects to craft the perfect ambiance for the track. This process aims to sculpt a refined and captivating sound, enhancing the auditory engagement of the listener.
Mastering, on the other hand, is the culminating phase in audio production. It readies the mixed audio for broad distribution, ensuring a uniform and optimal playback across all systems. The mastering engineer fine-tunes levels, EQ, compression, and introduces elements like fades, intervals, or dithering. This ensures the audio translates flawlessly across diverse playback mediums.
In essence, mixing and mastering are the twin pillars underpinning any high-caliber audio piece. They function as quality control, ensuring the auditory product resonates with its intended texture and offers listeners a premium auditory journey.
Audio Design/Foley Audio
Audio design and foley audio play pivotal roles in elevating any multimedia experience, adding depth and dimension to visual storytelling.
Audio design is about sculpting an auditory landscape that accentuates a narrative. This encompasses the layering of music, ambient noises, voice recordings, and foley sounds to resonate with the storyline, create atmosphere, and stimulate specific emotions in an audience.
On the other hand, foley audio zeroes in on the meticulous reproduction of everyday sounds, mirroring the actions portrayed on screen. Be it the rustle of clothes, the clinking of glasses, or the footsteps in a quiet hallway, foley brings realism and authenticity. By recording these sounds in a controlled studio environment, they are tailored to perfectly synchronize with the visual cues.
Together, audio designers and foley artists synergize their expertise to forge a sonorous tapestry that enriches and enlivens any visual medium, making it more immersive and captivating for viewers. | entertainment |

Check Out This Advice!
Total visits: 255
Posted on: 08/31/22
Millions of people all over the world are downloading music in building up their music library. You can find music downloads from all genres. In order to build your music library efficiently, you should learn the right way to go about it. This article will offer some helpful advice in downloading music.
A great tip to use when thinking about downloading music is to start using pandora radio. Pandora radio can be a great way to discover new music thats similar to music you already like. You simply create a station based around a song or artist you like, and it will playback similar music for you.
Consider joining an online forum of music enthusiasts. Many will share their downloads for free. This allows you to explore different genres of music or the latest cd from a known artist without committing a lot of time or money to the task, making it easier to build your library with an eclectic blend of tunes.
When you download music, save money by searching for promotions. Good searching should give you some freebies also.
If you use iTunes, make sure to sign up for their email alerts. They often send out specials and discounted albums that are available at a lower price for a very limited period of time. If you do not sign up for the email alerts, you might miss out on these savings.
Many artists have put up their own music for download at under one dollar per song. This is a good way of getting a copy of your favorite song and directing all proceeds back to the artist instead of to a third party distributor. The artist gets paid in full for his work, and you get a great song.
Watch the file sizes of your music downloads carefully. A normal music download will be somewhere between 2 megabytes and 5 megabytes. If you see something much less or much more, there could be something fishy about the file. It may be spyware and not the song you were hoping it was.
Always have an updated anti-virus program on any device that you download music on. There are many people who would love to have access to the files on your system. If you do not have a good anti-virus program on your device, you are leaving yourself vulnerable to hacking attempts and viruses.
When deciding on a site to download your music from, check out reviews for their user interface. This is especially important if you are a newbie. Some have very complex user interfaces that can be difficult to navigate. Others are more user friendly, and they are a better choice for a beginner.
Know that sometimes things arent what they seem. If you are using a dubious peer-to-peer network a file labelled as music could be something else completely. It could be something malicious. See if there are any reviews or comments on the torrent before downloading. Itll help you make the best decision.
Purchase your music from a site that allows you to preview tracks. Doing this lets you check out the music quality before you buy it. Well-known websites will often guarantee high quality downloads, but lesser-known companies will often not. Youll avoid bad purchases if you preview first.
If you plan on downloading music frequently, make sure you have a fast Internet connection. Slow connections like dial-up do not handle downloading music files well. It doesnt do any good to have access to tons of legal music downloads when it takes a long time just to download a few.
Now that you have learned the best ways in downloading music, you can use this information to build up your music collection. Once you have a digital music library, you will have a lot of flexibility in how you access this collection. Remember the advice here, and enjoy your new music collection. | entertainment |

The Select Screen is shared by both players, which means players can see their opponent's cursor and who they select. At times, a player might wait until their opponent chooses a character before selecting their own. This is what's typically known as counter-picking, as there are characters who are able to counter others depending on the match-up. To avoid this, a player can select the option to hide their cursor, preventing the opponent from seeing who they picked. This however requires memorizing where each character is on the select screen and carefully moving the cursor to the correct position.
Once a character and Kameo is chosen, the player is locked into using that character and Kameo for the remainder of the set, unless there is a rule in place that allows the player to switch. Depending on the rules in online Ranked mode or in a tournament, a player may be allowed to change their character and/or Kameo if they lose a match. If a player changes characters, some rulings even allow the opponent to change their Kameo despite winning the previous match.
Next comes the stage selection. It normally doesn't matter what stage is picked, however some stages may be larger than other stages and could potentially be better suited for certain characters. For instance, a character who relies on keeping a distance from their opponent will probably prefer a large stage where they can continuously move backwards, while a character who likes to stay up-close will want to play on a small stage.
Each stage also has different versions to choose from, such as a day version and night version. These can be unlocked through the game's story or Invasions mode. There usually isn't much or any difference between each version of a stage besides aesthetics so choose whichever version you like most. If stage selection isn't important, then you can simply pick the first stage your cursor is highlighted over since it is automatically chosen at random. Alternatively, selecting the box containing a question mark in the bottom-right corner will also randomly pick a stage. | entertainment |

I’ve got the second part of my Valentine’s Day mani swap with @fishnails on Instagram, and, this time, it’s me recreating her design! As I wrote in my previous post about my own design for the swap, a mani swap is a shared exchange of nail art designs between two people, after which each person recreates the other’s design. Her design for the swap was a kind of mix-and-match manicure inspired by those heart-shaped chocolate boxes you see around Valentine’s Day, and here I have my interpretation of it for you all to see! This is actually my first manicure that incorporates negative space elements – yay for new things!
Hi everyone! Once again, I would like to introduce you to my brand-new Instagram account (@emismanis) that shows my manicures going out and about in the world. I hope you readers appreciate it as a supplement to my blog 🙂
So I didn’t end up posting last week like I said I would because the planning for my Disneyland trip got a bit too hectic, but I am back this week with some more Disney-inspired designs! In my blog post for the first design in this Disney manicure series (this chic Minnie Mouse design), I wrote that my friends and I had been planning a trip to Disneyland for ages that FINALLY happened last week. The lead-up to this trip included me painting my friends’ nails with Disney related designs of their choosing, which was super fun. I only ended up painting two of my friends’ nails plus my own for a total of three designs, but I will feature the other two designs on myself sometime later. The trip was amazing!!! At the end of the post, I’ll post a few vacation photos for you all to look at.
The idea for my Disneyland nails comes from Disney’s 1973 film Robin Hood (yes, the one where the characters are anthropomorphic animals), which my friend Kimi and I were watching when we first hatched the Disney manicure idea. Kimi can correct me on this, but I think I said something like, “So…what Disney character should I paint on my nails?” and Kimi pointed at the screen and said something like, “Dude, Prince John.” Once we bounced around ideas for how a Prince John manicure would look, I really loved the design and went with it. We came up with a manicure based on the Disney villain’s bejeweled crown, into which I incorporated real rhinestones for extra bling and regality. Take a look: | entertainment |

Spontaneity, innovation and portrayal of the diverse moods of the lyrics are her forté.
The combination of a great voice, immaculate diction, a lovely stage presence and a flair for acting has made Chitra Iyer the hottest Indian singer from the South in recent years. She has a rich repertoire, with an ability to enthrall audiences with her soulfully rendered ghazals or have them swinging to popular numbers from Indian films of all languages and eras. She is musically gifted and is highly skilful in ghazals, geets and film songs.
In all her stage presentations, she has a good rapport with her co-artists and extends this to the audience, which is the perfect recipe for a thoroughly enjoyable concert. She has also anchored popular TV shows on Malayalam TV channels and judged a number of competitions on Tamil TV channels. | entertainment |

Adored by Edith Piaf ("C'est merveilleuse! C'est merveilleuse!"), paid homage by Cartola (who wrote especially for her his famous samba-canção "Acontece"), and a most cherished artist by the Brazilian audiences, she was also known as "the Divina" (an alias given to her by Haroldo Costa and popularized by Vinicius de Moraes in his liner notes to Chega de Saudade).
Her ample tessitura, capable of exploring faithfully both low and high registers, and her highly personal interpretation, full of a melancholy that witnessed the essence of an artist who experienced deep sadness in her life (along with all the rewards that success can bring), conveyed an unforgettable poetic density. In her almost 70 years of artistic activities, she performed a wide palette of genres, but her preference was for the samba.
Born to a musical family, her father was a seresteiro (serenader) and her mother an amateur singer. At five, Elizeth debuted as a singer, performing at the rancho Kananga do Japão (a historical Carnival rancho founded in 1911). Having to work since very young, she had several small jobs until she was discovered by Jacob do Bandolim at the party for her 16th birthday, where he was brought to by her cousin Pedro, a popular figure among the musicians of the time. Enthusiastic about the young singer, Jacob do Bandolim took her to Rádio Guanabara, where she opened, on August 18, 1936, at the Programa Suburbano, with such artists as Noel Rosa, Vicente Celestino, Aracy de Almeida, and Marília Batista. Approved as a member of the cast, she started to perform there regularly at Tuesdays. Elizeth Cardoso worked at several other radio stations, but she supplemented her earnings with performances in circuses, clubs, and cinemas. With Grande Otelo, she kept a duo for over ten years whose pièce de résistance was "Boneca de Piche" (Ary Barroso/Luís Iglésias). Always in financial difficulties, Elizeth got a job as a taxi-girl at the Dancing Avenida, where she also became a crooner in 1941. In 1945, she was hired by Júlio Simões to work in his dancing ballroom Casa Verde in São Paulo, where her fan club was expanded and came to include Adoniran Barbosa, the producers Vicente Leporace and Egas Moniz, and Blota Júnior, the A&R director of Rádio Cruzeiro do Sul. Elizeth worked there for one year and returned to her job at the Dancing Avenida, in Rio, as the crooner of the Orquestra de Dedé. Soon, she started to work at other dance ballrooms, like the Brasil, the Samba Danças, the Eldorado, and the Belas Artes. She was also, in that period, the crooner for the Orquestra de Guilherme Pereira.
In 1948, Elizeth met Evaldo Rui, who would be instrumental in her artistic career (having also been her lover). Rui counseled her in terms of her performance and took her to Rádio Mauá, where she worked with her discoverer, Jacob do Bandolim. But, soon, she was hired by Rádio Guanabara, which reopened big time and decided to compete with the major radios, Nacional, Tupi, and Mayrink Veiga.
In 1950, Ataulfo Alves got Elizeth an invitation to record for the first time, at Star. The first record though, with the sambas "Braços Vazios" (Acir Alves/Edgard G. Alves) and "Mensageiro da Saudade" (Ataulfo Alves), was withdrawn from circulation by the company due to alleged technical problems. But she was spotted at the Dancing Avenida by the composer Erasmo Silva, who was working for the Todamérica recording company, which would be opened in a few days. On July 25, 1950, she recorded through the new company "Complexo" (Wilson Batista), on the A-side, and "Canção de Amor" (Chocolate/Elano de Paula). Surprisingly, the radios preferred to play "Canção de Amor". The result was immediate, with Elizeth being hired by Almirante to work at Rádio Tupi, the second most popular station in Rio. Also in 1951, she was hired by Rádio Mayrink Veiga and by the Vogue club, recording in that year one of her biggest hits, "Barracão" (Luís Antônio/Oldemar Magalhães). In 1953, Elizeth had a signal of her rising prestige through an invitation to perform at the Golden Room of the Copacabana Palace, where just international artists were allowed (the only other Brazilians to perform there being Sílvio Caldas and Dorival Caymmi). But she preferred to perform at the Casablanca club, because the place was frequented by journalists. She opened there with the show Feitiço da Vila (dedicated to the songs by Noel Rosa and his partners) on June 8, 1953, and her strategy was successful, with enthusiastic reviews by renowned critics like Lúcio Rangel, Elsie Lessa, Vinícius de Moraes, Fernando Lobo, and others.
The show Feitiço da Vila was opened in São Paulo with the same success of the Carioca season. And in September 1954, Elizeth opened a show with Sílvio Caldas at the Oasis nightclub in São Paulo. According to the newspapers of the city, it was the most successful spectacle until then in the history of São Paulo.
In 1956, Elizeth signed with the Copacabana recording company (in spite of the attempts of Odeon and Sinter), through which she would release most of her hits for the following 20 years. Already a famous artist, Elizeth Cardoso hosted several exclusive shows on different radios, including Audições Elizeth Cardoso (Rádio Mundial) and Canta Elizeth (Mayrink Veiga).
Two years later, Elizeth was invited by Vinicius de Moraes to be the singer of an album of songs written by himself and Tom Jobim. Canção do Amor Demais became the first album of bossa nova, launching the new genre. With the permission of Copacabana, Elizeth started to rehearse with Jobim and de Moraes. As the rehearsals were held at Jobim's home in Ipanema, they were later immortalized by de Moraes in "Carta ao Tom" ("Letter to Tom"): "Rua Nascimento e Silva, 107/Você ensinando pra Elizeth/As canções de Canção do Amor Demais" ("107 Nascimento e Silva Street/And you were teaching Elizete/The songs of Canção do Amor Demais").
Immediately after the release, the most commented-upon track of the album was "Chega de Saudade", the first recording in which appears the revolutionary syncopation of João Gilberto's guitar (who also appeared on "Outra Vez").
In 1959, Cardoso recorded for the film Orfeu do Carnaval (Marcel Camus), also an important piece of the initial period of bossa nova (it derived from De Moraes' play Orfeu da Conceição), the songs "Manhã de Carnaval" (Luís Bonfá/Antônio Maria) and "Samba de Orfeu". The soundtrack, a top seller in several countries including the U.S. and France, unduly credits the actress Marpessa Dawn as the singer.
After performances in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Portugal, Cardoso launched one of her top-selling albums, Meiga Elizete, in which she was accompanied by the groups of Moacir Silva and Walter Wanderley. On October 12, 1964, invited by the conductor Diogo Pacheco, Elizeth interpreted Villa-Lobos' "Bachianas Número 5" at the Municipal Theater of São Paulo. When she finished the piece, the 1,800 people present at the event stood up and applauded for 15 minutes, asking for an encore. She stared at the audience and simply cried; perhaps thinking about her long career full of obstacles, financial hardships, and prejudices against her dark skin. But in the end she did the awaited encore.
In 1965, thrilled by the show Rosa de Ouro, idealized by Hermínio Bello de Carvalho, which launched Clementina de Jesus and brought again to the stage Araci Cortes, accompanied by Paulinho da Viola, Elton Medeiros, Jair do Cavaquinho, Anescar do Salgueiro, and Nelson Sargento, Cardoso communicated her intention to record all the songs of the show. Rehearsing each song with the instrumentalists, in June 1965 she recorded in just four days one of the masterpieces of the Brazilian popular music, Elizeth Sobe o Morro. It represented the debut of Nelson Cavaquinho on record, both as a guitarist and singer. It was also the first time that Paulinho da Viola had one of his songs recorded.
In February 1968, Elizeth Cardoso participated in the historic show at the João Caetano theater, produced by Hermínio Bello de Carvalho for the Image and Sound Museum, with the Zimbo Trio, Jacob do Bandolim, and his group Época de Ouro. The show was recorded live and released on two LPs.
Consumed by the cancer that would kill her, Cardoso still wanted to realize one of her old dreams, which was to record an album dedicated to the compositions by Ary Barroso. In spite of the interest of Hermínio Bello de Carvalho, there was no budget. Ary Amoroso was only produced through the sponsoring of a furniture factory. One cannot imagine that she was suffering pains during the recording sessions, as her voice was, as always, impeccable. The very Ary Barroso would probably repeat his own words describing her interpretation if he was alive, the reason why Bello de Carvalho remembered them in the liner notes: "Artista de raça. Voz suavíssima e convincente. Interpretação magnífica". ("A race artist. A sweetest and convincing voice. Magnificent interpretation".)

Rihanna continues to take her fashion risks to new heights. The 27-year-old singer and style icon showed off her cleavage sans bra by wearing an oversized purple blazer and mini skirt from Dior’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection.
Rihanna looked ready to take over the boardroom in her high-powered haute couture suit on March 30. Although her blazer’s deep neckline might have flaunted her assets, the singer made sure that her ensemble wasn’t just about being sexy.
In true Rihanna fashion, the singer paid homage to some of our favorite fashion moments in film, channeling Cher Horowitz in Clueless and savvy receptionist Tess McGill in Working Girl. Although Rihanna’s nod to the oversized blazer might make some minimalist dressers cringe, we can’t help but admire how much fun the "FourFiveSeconds" singer has with fashion.
As for her makeup, we love how Rihanna kept her beauty look simple when wearing this statement making suit. The singer let her bangs and face framing layers hang out and gathered the rest of her locks into a messy bun, proving that she is the ultimate beauty chameleon.
Between her high top knot and plunging neckline, RiRi continues to experiment with extreme elements in each of her awe-inspiring outfits. | entertainment |

Four huge lifelike beetles show up in the middle of the city. The ‘Kafkaesque’ parade, consisting of a giant Cockroach; an enormous Lady-bug; a Stag beetle and a Jewel beetle go on rampage through the streets, causing excitement and ‘mass-hysteria’ amongst the public. They are accompanied by The Forester who is trying to get a grip on the situation. “Don’t panic! We have everything under control!” he shouts while the astonished crowd shrink back screaming.
The act, which starts as electrifying chaos-generating happening among the audience, culminates in a hilarious circle-performance on a city-square.
The story gets a satirical dimension through the character of The Forester (a spokesman of the environmental organisation G.R.E.E.N.) as he reveals a special bugs fitness/lifestyle program which will reduce them back to normal size. A solution to the giant-beetles-issue which is causing a widespread panic and unrest amongst the population in and around big cities.
Big Bugs Show is created by theatre-makers and artists Iva & Petar Mandick, and performed by their group Mr.Image Theatre.
Continually exploring new dimensions in visual/mask theatre, in 2012 Iva & Petar launched Big Bugs Show, a ‘Kafkaesque’ crawling spectacle featuring four giant lifelike beetles. The spectacle is set on streets, right amongst the audience. By taking some popular themes, such as ‘junk food’ and ‘food waste’ – and turning them into a form of a satirical urban legend, the authors create original contemporary street theatre that communicates with broad audience. | entertainment |

The famous British-American filmmaker, Christopher Nolan is known for visually appealing movies & has been nominated 5 times for Oscars, BAFTAs, and Golden Globe Awards for his movies.
If you are a fan of movies directed by Christopher Nolan, then you must have watched his famous movie "Interstellar" based on space exploration & search for life.
In that movie, Actor Matthew McConaughey plays Cooper, who is an ex Nasa pilot & a farmer who goes on a mission to seasrch for life on other planets.
If you watch that movie, then you will notice a scene where corn field is shot burning, well how do you think, that scene was shot?
To be as visually real as possible, Christopher Nolan planted 500 acres of corn farm outside of Calgary, Canada, instead of using any CGI effects.
It is because Christopher Nolan got inspired from director Zack Snyder who grew corn crops for his 2013 film Man of Steel.
The total budget of the Interstellar movie was around US $165 million, out of which US $100,000 was used for corn plantation.
You may be thinking that why he destroyed corn on this scale, but that's not true. The leftover corn was sold and it helped to make profit of US $162,000.

Rodgers, 37, had mentioned his engagement and thanked his fiancée while accepting his third career MVP award on Feb. 6 but didn’t say her name.
Woodley, 29, told Fallon she has yet to attend one of Rodgers’ games because of the pandemic, and acknowledged that while growing up, sports were never really on her “radar.”

Sponsor tables of 10 must be purchased in their entirety. If a group wants to share a sponsor table, all guests may be recognized as co-sponsors, but the purchase transaction must be completed by one person.

Video poker is actually a casino card game predicated on five-card draw poker. Additionally it is played on a high-end computerized machine similar to a video slot machine. The ball player is seated either at a table top or behind a monitor. There are usually two other players also playing concurrently. One player acts because the “good” player and tries to beat the dealer’s score. The other player “acts” because the “bad” player and tries to beat the nice player’s score.
Like any kind of casino games, the random number generator or (RNG) plays a very important role in video poker games. That is so important that it’s often programmed by the manufacturer to make certain the random number generator struggles to generate specific cards atlanta divorce attorneys hand that is played. This way, it prevents biases in the outcome of the hands. Generally in most video poker games, the random number generator is made into the poker software. It can’t be switched off.
What sort of video poker machine works is pretty self-explanatory. You place your money in the “pit” or the betting zone. You then select a hand, whether you’re a “good” player or perhaps a “bad” player. A computer-animated image of a card is then generated by the machine and teaches you what card it is. The “hand” that you see on the screen is the result of the five cards which were rolled or dealt from the “box”.
As stated earlier, most video poker games are played on top quality gambling machines. The machines were created so that the card’s position is fixed. Therefore, there is no way for the player to know what cards are coming out of the box. In addition to this, the random number generator is programmed in such a way that the results are unpredictable.
In video poker machine games, there is a very rare occurrence where a human wins the pot. Generally in most slot machines however, all winning pays are based on the number of bets which have been placed on that one machine. This is in order to avoid the possibility of someone manipulating the device to payout more than they have. There are also casino owners who will install cheats or other tricks to get people to play video poker machine games a lot more than they should.
However, most online casinos and land-based casinos have video poker machines of their own. These video poker machines are the same ones used at live casinos. The differences between these two forms of video poker machines really drop to the way in which they are wired. The wired video poker machines tend to be more reliable when it comes to payout percentages. Because of this, they are the very best video poker machines to play at live casinos.
Now let’s have a look at online video poker machines. If you do a make an online search for an online video poker machine you will be presented with a multitude of different machines. You will need to sort through them all to get the one machine that will give you the best chance of hitting an enormous jackpot. The key would be to play on machines that have bonuses.

From classic games to engaging activities to brand new, modern takes, you can create some really special memories and an unforgettable party.
It always pays to start off with some awesome icebreaker games. Opt for a guessing game in which you tape a piece of paper reading a famous bride or female icon from history to every guest’s back when they first arrive and have them spend the first moments of the party engaging with each other and asking questions to figure out what their paper says. Or, you could do an icebreaker game that’s a little bit more casual and classic. Have your guests sit around with glasses of champagne and reveal two truths and a lie about themselves, with the other guests guessing which is which.
The most important thing is to keep guests smiling, laughing, and simply just enjoying themselves while celebrating the future bride. Some old school, always amazing go-to games are the Toilet Paper Wedding Dress game, Bridal Bingo, and Hen Party Mad Libs. With the Toilet Paper Wedding Dress game, guests break up into teams of two or three to race against a timer and create the most realistic wedding dress they can using only toilet paper wrapped around a team mate. You can further up the fun with this game by having guests make their dresses “couture” or “current trendy fashion” with photos from women’s fashion magazines. Bridal Bingo is another great idea for an awesome hen party game, and it’s easy as ever to play. Pair it with themed, hen party prizes and voila! You have the recipe for a truly interactive and boisterous activity. Hen Party Mad Libs is probably the easiest to put together and most fun to play for guests. You can even take already made normal Mad Libs and have guests fill in their most outrageous, hen party themed words. What’s even better about this activity is that it takes up quite a bit of time as the guests get really involved and have a great time doing it.
Some all new games to try out with your party hens are things like a Newlyweds Game, a scavenger hunt, or a Truth or Dare activity. A Newlyweds Game can go all sorts of ways, so let your creativity shine. Involving the groom beforehand is the best thing, as you can have him answer tons of questions that you then pose to the bride without him at the hen party event. You can even incorporate drinking shots into the activity for every question the bride gets incorrect. A scavenger hunt is probably the most interactive activity you can incorporate into a hens party and it can keep guests entertained for as little as a couple of hours to all day. You can come up with just about any way to do a scavenger hunt, but the basic gist is that several things are hidden and guests are given clues that will eventually lead to these treasures. Be sure to have fun prizes on hand to award winners of the hunt, as well. A Truth or Dare themed game can also be hours of fun, and once more, the options for what you can do with this are absolutely limitless. Have both truths and dares planned out and written down for guests to draw so that the game stays on track and all the dares are possible to do within whatever vicinity you’ve chosen for the hen party.
Regardless if you opt for just a few or all of these awesome game ideas, your hen party event is sure to be a big hit and a memorable one for years to come. | entertainment |
