![]() ![]() And in fact, when we ended up recording, we pretty much were true to the demo forms he had sent. He sent me, I can't remember how many tunes, maybe six or seven before the first time we got together to record, and every song was really strong and the demos were really strong. Love his work and so I got back to him, told him I was into it and just one thing led to another. Hall will stream for three performances this weekend to mark both the late singer’s Jan. I was, of course, absolutely interested in doing it. Seven years ago today, David Bowie & Iman attended the Lazarus premiere at The New York Theatre Workshop. The filmed London production of the David Bowie musical Lazarus starring Michael C. Directed by Ivo van Hove, Lazarus is inspired by Walter Tevis’ best-selling 1963 novel The Man Who Fell to Earth and features. David Bowie and Tony Award-winning playwright Enda Walsh’s off-Broadway production of Lazarus transfers to London’s King Cross Theatre. Or alluded to."ĭonnie McCaslin: "It progressed pretty steadily from a song or two, to a few songs, to kind of a whole recording project. The London premiere of David Bowie’s Lazarus at the King’s Cross Theatre. But they were well hidden in the recordings of the past. London Cast & Crew Lazarus - David Bowie Musical - Official Website Cast Michael C. Photo: Nicholas Hunt/Getty Images The play wasn’t starting for another half-hour, and already. And you don't hear that in an average rock song. Fans attend a showing of the David Bowie musical Lazarus on Januin New York City. I mean, I don't even know what they're called, but they have things like 13th in them and flatted 9ths and all that. Lazarus, the Off-Broadway musical with a score by the late David Bowie and book by Enda Walsh, is being considered by producers for a Broadway transfer. The most chilling moment comes when he plays the isolated vocals from Lazarus, which allow you to hear each agonized breath Bowie took between lines. I don't think he quite knows what they're called. And David has a remarkable knowledge of jazz chords. And so, he always had a hint of jazz in sort of the earlier things. What was it about Newton that inspired him The character must have had a big effect. Tony Visconti: "He had one key jazz player in his band for well over a decade, maybe two decades and that was Mike Garson, who is a very accomplished jazz pianist. Lazarus continues the story of Thomas Newton, who Bowie played in the 1976 film The Man Who Fell to Earth. ![]()

![]() ![]() This helps in quickly locating fixes (waypoints) and inserting them quickly into the FMS flightplan and building up your route very easily.Ī nice point is that hard turns (say 90º to approaches) are rendered correctly for the turn and the FMS looks far better on the navigation display as the route is fully outlined. One big bonus now is that you can use the local map on the same screen as the FMS pop-out panel. ![]() Otherwise it is a quite powerful system with SID/STAR, RNAV and Air Routes built-in with DIR (Direct-To) functionality as well. There are no aircraft preferences of that particular aircraft that this FMS is installed in (except for CLB, CRZ & DES speeds/altitudes) and it uses the same standard X-Plane navigational data that is installed for the current GNS340/350 GPS. It is first to be noted on this default FMS is that it is just a GPS navigator. The biggest quick change to the Challenger is the insertion of the new default FMS (Flight Management System). With the plugin installed the corrected liveries do show, but if like me you have a large collection of 3rd party liveries for the C300 then you just get the ? mark instead of the visual livery. But many areas that should be only textured are in fact shiny and they don't look realistic, and yet in other aircraft I have tried in X-Plane11 like my Carenado Bonanza the same textures look amazing even at this early stage. So overall the changes within the aircraft look quite different (again I will note that this is really far to early to say this is what X-Plane11 will be finally like, but to just note the areas that are affected). ![]() Internally the changes are even more dramatic.Ī lot of the Challenger's panels are now very glossy and there is a very greyed or darkened out appearance to many of the areas, the striking lighting is very poor in resolution, so it is good effect, but spoiled by the poor resolution of the reflective areas and this is especially evident from the side views across the cabin. We are used to the glossy exterior of the Challenger 300 because of the built-in transparency plugin, but it is noted the plugin has been dialed down a little, what is very evident is the sharp dramatic contrast of the lighting in X-Plane11 and that is even more highlighted by the high gamma (bright) background. One it affects the landing gear (and doors), transparency (more notable here because the Challenger 300 uses a 3rd party transparency plugin), certain textures are affected, different sound system, lighting, and the new style icons for that wizz-bang new interface and all those items are on the surface, as underneath there is a small list of items to comply to that are hidden in the aircraft (.acf) file.Ī note is required here in that I really doubt that any aircraft that is compliant to the new X-Plane11 standards will be able to be used in X-Plane10, and in fact as the download shows for the CRJ-200 there are now two files to choose from in a X-Plane10 version and an X-Plane11 version, that will either double your downloads or if your need to chose one simulator version over the other. The change to X-Plane11 hits on a few different areas. That list includes a few surprises, but also notes what is required to be X-Plane11 compliant. Generated new style icons for default liveries Fixed APU not working when "Start with engines running" option is selected Added clickzones to 3d cockpit for new FMC He posted a quick compatibility "patch" ( cl300_xp11_comp_patch_1_0.zip) that has to be distributed within the main root folder of the aircraft to the various folders that require the changes. The other approach with JROLLON (CRJ-200) is to do a full download of the entire aircraft package and both systems have their bonuses and negatives.ĭdenn is always very fast to issue updates whenever any changes to X-Plane versions and updates appear, and he didn't disappoint here either. There are two approaches as shown here with the Ddenn (Challenger 300) approach in just issuing a quick "patch" to which you replace the various components within the aircraft's main file folders. No doubt most developers will want to make their aircraft X-Plane11 compliant as quickly as possible, but you can go too fast before the simulator is really sorted at best. In most cases this article is out of date before it hits the site, but it does show what to expect from X-Plane11 as we transfer over our aircraft from X-Plane10 to the newer X-Plane11. This article is a quick look at the first payware aircraft to be adjusted for X-Plane11, they are the Challenger 300 by Ddenn and the CRJ-200 by JROLLON.Īdjusted is the word here, and to also note that this article is based on the X-Plane11 beta version v1.0 so it a lot will change with a few more updates from Laminar and expect more changes to any aircraft being released as updated to X-Plane11, certainly this year.

![]() ![]() I'm extremely happy with the car and am super grateful that I had the help I did from the JCD guys to get it. Yoshiro provided regular updates, and once it was loaded he immediately sent me all the relevant documents and helped me find a broker to transport it from the port to my house. This was during peak covid, so of course there were tons of delays getting it onto a ship. After that was done he got the car moved to the shipping yard. You only need 1 bank transfer to pay the rest of the fees which simplifies things. Eventually this R34 closed without meeting reserve, and Yoshiro guided me through the negotiations process (which I was completely unfamiliar with). Many times Yoshiro would discover something about the car I wouldn't have caught that made it a no-go, and his honesty probably saved me from a few lemons. From there I used their auction database to find cars I was interested in and I spent about a month looking at different auctions. He asked a few questions to gauge how much I cared about different aspects. I was in the market for a Skyline and told Yoshiro what I was looking for ('98 or older, RWD, no rust, no accidents). Take your time, work with them, and you'll get exactly what you want. read more This is as good as no-sight car buying can get and I 100% recommend using these guys.

![]() Jude Law is perfect as Watson, he plays him as young, intelligent, authoritative and there are some great moments when he tells Holmes off. ![]() delivers his lines pretty much brilliantly, sometimes saying them quite quickly, especially when Holmes is deducting but I loved his deadpan delivery. He plays Holmes as an avid boxer, as a keen martial artist, as intelligent being a master of logic and deduction and as a master of disguise, while tormenting his housekeeper in a playful manner and sometimes acting as selfish and self-destructive. Robert Downey Jnr, an actor who I like a lot, gives a very strong performance as Holmes. I also think it was a good idea to put Moriaty as a background character, the ending is highly suggestive of a sequel, and if there is one that would be a perfect opportunity for Moriaty to flourish with the right actor, some good dialogue and some good character development. It may be one you need to rewind a few times in order to completely understand though. I will talk later about what didn't quite work, but in particular the final solution is interesting. The script was very witty and smart, there were a number of times when my whole family and I laughed, and a lot of it was Holmes's dialogue, plus I liked the idea of the plot, it was an original (if a little convoluted at times) and it moved along briskly. The pacing was fine for me, in fact although people may disagree I for one was surprised at how quickly in general the film went, even if it did slow down towards the end. Guy Ritchie's direction is solid as well, it is tight, assured and Ritchie does seem to know what he is doing, so we were treated to some fun set pieces. I also enjoyed the score, it was jaunty and somewhat tongue-in-cheek. ![]() The camera work is really good, even in the fight scenes which were suitably gritty and invigorating, and the sets, costumes and locations look as though they took their time with it and to make it true to the period. I for one found it stylish, innovative and clever. Back to this film, I liked how it was filmed. If I had a preference I would say the latter but only marginally, Rathbone was excellent, he was sophisticated and gritty but Brett had that towering presence and generosity about him that made me like him a little more. The answer is yes, I really like Conan Doyle's stories, they are clever and insightful and Holmes himself is a very intriguing character with a distinct personality, and I am a fan of both Basil Rathbone and Jeremy Brett. Those who didn't like it as much as I did will probably question whether I have any knowledge at all of Sherlock Holmes, whether it is the books or the countless interpretations of the character and his stories. It looked entertaining enough, but I was wondering is it going to be an entertaining and stylish movie or another generic block buster? My answer is this, and you can probably tell by my summary, I thoroughly enjoyed it, it is not the best movie I have ever seen and it has its faults, but the thing is I thought it was fun, witty and somewhat original too. First of all, I wasn't sure whether I wanted to see this movie initially. ![]() ![]() ![]() So yes, many 24 Hour Fitness locations have pools open all day (but not throughout the night) for you to use. Plus, you have to shower after leaving the pool, anyway! However, it’s still safe to visit the pool on any day of the week, as public pools are packed with chlorine to keep everything hygienic. If the pool isn’t cleaned daily, ask the staff what days it’s cleaned, then visit the gym the day after cleaning. So, it may be a good idea to visit the pool early in the morning, as it’s likely to have been cleaned and treated during the night. This is understandable, as the pool needs to be cleaned, and it can be riskier for people to swim at night as there won’t be as many people around to notice if you get into distress.Īnd, speaking of cleaning, some 24 Hour Fitness members have complained about cleanliness at the gym-the gym is incredibly popular and often crowded during peak hours, so it’s going to end up a little grimy throughout the day. Many locations have the pools open from 8 am to 8 pm, and those are better hours than some gyms offer for their pools, but it’s still somewhat disappointing for night owls who love swimming. There’s one main downside to the pools, though: they don’t have 24-hour access. The pool is typically considered an amenity you’ll need a higher-level subscription for, though.ĭon’t expect anything too fancy or Olympic-sized, as 24 Hour Fitness isn’t the flashiest gym in the world, but you’ll definitely find a pool that accommodates your needs at many locations. You can expect most mid-range and above 24 Hour Fitness locations to have pools. Let’s take a closer look at some photos and important information about aquatics at 24 Hour Fitness. Just remember the aquatic amenities aren’t open 24/7 like the rest of the gym. At clubs with a pool, you’ll also typically find a hot tub and/or steam room nearby. ![]() Standard dimensions are about 25 yards long with 3 lap lanes, though some clubs offer U-shaped indoor pools or even outdoor pools. ![]() Many (but not all) 24 Hour Fitness locations have a pool. If you’re into swimming and/or aquatic fitness classes, you’ll have one big question before deciding if 24 Hour Fitness should make your gym short-list: The hours are certainly a big selling point of 24 Hour Fitness, but it’s still a great gym even if you go during normal hours - the wide variety of classes, equipment, and other amenities are a huge draw. There are around 430 locations across the US, and the biggest draw is that you can visit at any time of day or night! If you’re looking to join a gym, then you’ll undoubtedly have come across 24 Hour Fitness. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can go back and replay any level from the level select screen if you want to try to improve your score on it. The score for each beat level is shown atop it and your overall cumulative game score is shown at the top of the page. On the level select screen each unlocked level is brown and each locked level is gray. You have to beat each level to unlock the next. Each level offers 3 minutes to complete it. ![]() Under these data points are buttons to pause the game, undo moves, restart the game, and go to full screen mode. ![]() Then it shows your current level, current level score, and time remaining in the current level. The controls for this game are in the right column.Īt the top there are sound effect and music control buttons. One tricky part in this game is some levels have what appear to be stand alone cards that have 2 or 3 cards directly under them. If you have pairs matched up on the tableau but neither card has any card underneath it you can wait to pair it up so that if either card is needed to pair with another card that has cards underneath it you can. The key to beating this game is to work on the biggest stacks first to give yourself the most optionality. If you are unable to make any more pairs on the playing field you can grab a new card from the reserves or use one of your Jokers and pair it up with a card on the tableau. You can pair multiple cards from the tableau together, or pair one of them with the card atop the waste pile. This is a timed 40-level game where you pair cards which add up to 13 to remove them from the tableau. Each level of this game has a unique design, but other than the layout the play is the same as traditional Pyramid Solitaire. This game has an ancient Egypt theme to it. ![]() ![]() Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.
