Gaslight 20229/2/2023 ![]() It was a traditional mystery with some supernatural elements to it, in the style of keeping the audience in the dark and guessing as to what it going on and who done it. I have to say that writers Neha Sharma, Pavan Kirpalani and Ameet Mehta put together a rather enjoyable and entertaining script and storyline. But that hardly really mattered, because I do believe in giving a movie a fair chance. Sure, I hadn't heard about the movie prior to watching it. And thus, I opted to sit down and watch director Pavan Kirpalani's 2023 mystery thriller without even a moment of doubt. So I have been missing out on a large number of movies here actually. But I found out that it is the Bollywood subgenre. I've always avoided their movies, as I thought it was all laced with random singing and dancing. “Loamy,” which many Wordle users tried back in August, though the right word that day was “clown.When I sat down to watch the 2023 Indian mystery thriller "Gaslight", it was actually my second Indian movie ever to watch. “LGBTQIA,” for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, and asexual, aromantic or agender. “Sentient,” with lookups brought on by Google canning the engineer who claimed an unreleased AI system had become sentient. “Raid,” as in the search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. “Queen consort,” what King Charles’ wife, Camilla, is newly known as. “Codify,” as in turning abortion rights into federal law. “Omicron,” the persistent Covid-19 variant and the 15th letter of the Greek alphabet. “Oligarch,” driven by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Last year's pick was “vaccine.” Rounding out this year's Top 10 are: ![]() “Gaslighting,” Sokolowski said, spent all of 2022 in the top 50 words looked up on to earn top dog word of the year status. Some of the droves who looked up “gaslighting” this year might have wanted to know, simply, if it's one or two words, or whether it's hyphenated. ![]() They don't slice and dice why people look up words, which can be anything from quick spelling and definition checks to some sort of attempt at inspiration or motivation. Sokolowski and his team weed out evergreen words most commonly looked up to gauge which word received a significant bump over the year before. Merriam-Webster, which logs 100 million page views a month on its site, chooses its word of the year based solely on data. It has possibly an idea of strategy or a long-term plan.” It’s something that has a little bit more devious quality to it. “And once one is aware of that deception, it’s not just a straightforward lie, as in, you know, I didn’t eat the cookies in the cookie jar. “There is this implication of an intentional deception,” Sokolowski said. The term gaslighting was later used by mental health practitioners to clinically describe a form of prolonged coercive control in abusive relationships. She played Nancy Oliver, a young maid hired by Gregory and told not to bother his “high-strung” wife. The death of Angela Lansbury in October drove some interest in lookups of the word, Sokolowski said. Among other instances, he insists her complains over the constant dimming of their London townhouse's gaslights is a figment of her troubled mind. The two marry after a whirlwind romance and Gregory turns out to be a champion gaslighter. One, George Cukor's “Gaslight” in 1944, starred Ingrid Bergman as Paula Alquist and Charles Boyer as Gregory Anton. It birthed two film adaptations in the 1940s. There's also “medical gaslighting,” when a health care professional dismisses a patient's symptoms or illness as “all in your head.”ĭespite its relatively recent prominence - including “Gaslighter,” The Chicks' 2020 album featuring the rousingly angry titular single - the word was brought to life more than 80 years ago with “Gas Light,” a 1938 play by Patrick Hamilton. It can be a corporate tactic, or a way to mislead the public. It can happen between romantic partners, within a broader family unit and among friends. Gaslighting is a heinous tool frequently used by abusers in relationships - and by politicians and other newsmakers. Merriam-Webster's top definition for gaslighting is the psychological manipulation of a person, usually over an extended period of time, that “causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, perception of reality, or memories and typically leads to confusion, loss of confidence and self-esteem, uncertainty of one’s emotional or mental stability, and a dependency on the perpetrator.” “It was a word looked up frequently every single day of the year,” he said.

Point break 20219/2/2023 ![]() This takes the conversation back to irony and its misuse, the cluttering of it in modern revamps and reboots. When the action bursts, it isn’t only satisfying due to its construction Point Break makes you care. The rush of Bigelow’s film goes beyond her own qualities of disruption it’s a joyride unlike any other as Bodhi (impeccably played with a simple smile by Patrick Swayze) says, “acid in your mouth.” A particular bank robbery/street chase provides a blueprint for Bigelow’s mastery in escalating stakes via personal relationships. It’s up there with baseball and air conditioning and John Wayne each parodied as much as they’re celebrated. The fact that the film is also one of our greatest American treasures only helps things. It’s Americana without the importance stressed by male creators, simply let loose from constraints of how these characters are supposed to be viewed. Their bonds are real, flesh and blood, molded by the sea and the air and the salt by the fire on the sand. What drives the nerves and sears the skin is Bigelow’s deep-rooted knack for utilizing excitement as punctuation marks within sentences of subverted dynamics, prepping the audience by building fascinating portraits of boneheads.īut they’re not just boneheads, and that’s the ultimate takeaway from Point Break. The template, an undercover cop invading surfer subculture to gain bank robbery leads (which has been rehashed to death across DTV/B-grade modern actioners), is just as important as the plot in any other blazing classic: it’s not. Bigelow shoots bodies in the utmost structural way fit, rabid personalities of adrenaline against lanterns of flame and crashing water. It's celebratory and freeing in visceral expectation, as well as a dissection of its subjects. Point Break not being made by a male provides *one* route - to capture certain teams and structures as they are, rather than providing a sort of mythic stature towards cliché. This is a movie about those pesky, manly men, but it finds genuine beauty in them not endorsement, only empathy. Because, even as the whole classification of action is upended, Point Break is one of the most effective rip roarin’ rides of the 1990s, fully grappling with its communal distinction to showcase action without any fake ‘bro’ sheen.

Safe house chicago9/1/2023 He can be heard weekly on 88Nine Radio Milwaukee talking about his "Urban Spelunking" series of stories. He has also won awards from the Milwaukee Press Club. Chicagos spy headquarters filled with gadgets, good eats, and handcrafted cocktails. In 2005, he was awarded the City of Asti's (Italy) Journalism Prize for his work focusing on that area. He's produced three installments of the "OMCD" series of local music compilations for and in 2007 produced a CD of Italian music and poetry. To begin an evening at SafeHouse Chicago, customers must locate a top-secret entrance. Most recently, the band contributed tracks to a UK vinyl/CD tribute to the Redskins and collaborated on a track with Italian novelist Enrico Remmert. The espionage experience begins before diners reach their table. The Yell Leaders were named the best unsigned band in their region by VH-1 as part of its Rock Across America 1998 Tour. With his most recent band, The Yell Leaders, Bobby released four LPs and had a songs featured in episodes of TV's "Party of Five" and "Dawson's Creek," and films in Japan, South America and the U.S. Operated much like the Milwaukee SafeHouse landmark, a similar espionage-themed dining experience that has been around since 1966, the SafeHouse Chicago.

Josh Silver – keyboards, backing vocals, samples.Track listingĪll lyrics and music by Peter Steele, unless noted. įor the 30th anniversary of Slow, Deep and Hard, Roadrunner Records, in conjunction with Run Out Groove, reissued the debut on vinyl. Roadrunner Records released a remastered version of Slow, Deep and Hard on March 24, 2009. Īccording to guitarist Kenny Hickey, Steele based the main riff of "Gravitational Constant: G = 6.67 × 10 −8 cm −3 gm −1 sec −2" (later known as "Gravity") from the theme song of the 1964 American sitcom The Munsters. ![]() In keeping with the band's notable humor, the album's cover artwork is an close-up image of vaginal penetration. The album's other tracks are "Der Untermensch" (Steele's controversial critique of people, frequently immigrants, abusing the American welfare system), "Glass Walls of Limbo (Dance Mix)" (a facetiously titled ambient industrial soundscape) and "The Misinterpretation of Silence and its Disastrous Consequences" (a literal minute of silence). Slow, Deep and Hard is a darkly humorous, semi-autobiographical album with tracks 1, 3, 4 and 7 based on a failed relationship of vocalist/bass guitarist Peter Steele. The album, originally titled None More Negative and released in 1990 under the group's former name Repulsion, launched the band's career. Slow, Deep and Hard is the debut studio album by the American gothic metal band Type O Negative, released in 1991 on Roadrunner Records. Type_O_Negative_-_Slow,_Deep_And_Hard.jpg

Best 9mm ammo for stopping power9/1/2023 ![]() With all of this background information in mind, let’s take a look at the terminal effects of five, well-known, available, hollow-point, self-defense loads in a variety of bullet weights, ranging from 95 grains to 150 grains:īarnes TAC-XPD +P, 115-grain, solid-copper hollowpoint (SCHP.)ĭefender Ammunition, 124-grain, jacked hollowpoint (JHP.) Even a mere nine inches will usually do the job effectively enough, according to the FBI, but more than 15 inches is simply too much. So, while the FBI prefers 12 to 18 inches of penetration, a safer, more-realistic, effective depth is 10 to 15 inches. The average human torso is only 9.4 inches from front to back (I’m 6’2” tall, 183 lbs., and my chest is 9.8 inches deep), and even from an angled shot, the heart and lungs are only about eight inches deep, and the maximum chest width is about 16 inches. And an over-penetrating bullet does not expend all its energy inside the target, thereby reducing its effective stopping power. Too much penetration, however, can be a bad thing, passing through the felon and possibly hitting innocent bystanders, resulting in likely lawsuits and possible prison time. Some prefer the lightweight, high-velocity rounds, while others prefer the slower, heavier rounds that supposedly penetrate deeper. Then, we get into the whole controversy regarding which bullet weight is best. These are fairly tough standards to meet. 70” (twice its original diameter for a 9mm) or better, a desired penetration of approximately 12 to 13 inches, and a desired, one-shot stopping record of at least 85 percent. The minimum desired RSP is 20, with a desired velocity of at least 1,200 feet per second (Mach 1.06, supersonic), a desired, kinetic energy of at least 400 foot-pounds (the ability to shove a 200-pound assailant back two feet, literally knocking him off-balance), a desired, bullet expansion of. The relative stopping power (RSP) of any bullet is determined by a simple formula: Velocity x Weight x Cross-sectional area x Shape factor x Hydrostatic-shock effect (or V x W x C x S x H), all divided by 1,000, to get rid of the excess zeros. So, assuming that it does happen to you, and you manage to get that one, solid hit on the perpetrator, how likely is it to stop his (or sometimes, her) belligerent actions with just one shot? ![]() ![]() We can all hope that it never happens to us, but statistics prove that ordinary citizens with lawfully possessed firearms shoot nearly five times as many felons each year as police do, simply because the police cannot be everywhere at once. The bullet will go where the front sight is aiming, every time. Four shots are typically fired within the span of five seconds, and incredibly, three of them miss completely! You’ll get tunnel vision, time will seem to slow down dramatically, and those five seconds will feel more like five long minutes.Īs a graduate of a professional shooting school, I took some useful notes on how to be the person who does not miss: Use two hands whenever possible, keep a relaxed grip, apply constant, even pressure on the trigger, let it surprise you when it goes off, and if you can’t remember anything else, remember this: Front sight, front sight, front sight! Keep it in focus, if you can in the dark (a white dot on the sight really helps), and let the rear sight and target blur slightly. at night, with fairly poor visibility, at a nominal range of about seven feet. Armed Forces, in very widespread use.Īccording to police and FBI statistics, the average civilian shooting incident takes place at approximately 10:40 p.m. It’s also the standard pistol caliber of the U.S. The most common caliber for self-defense pistols is currently 9mm Luger, which is large enough to be reasonably effective, and small enough that the recoil isn’t a major problem. Approximately 92 percent of the time, whenever a law-abiding citizen draws his or her weapon, the felon immediately leaves the scene without a shot being fired.īut let’s say that your assailant either doesn’t see your gun or simply doesn’t care. Hopefully, if something like this ever happens to you, you’ll have your concealed carry permit (if allowed) and a decent pistol handy. Let’s face it, none of us really wants to have to shoot someone, but there’s a popular country music song by Billy Currington that goes like this: “God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.” And, every now and then, one of those crazy people tries to rob or assault someone at gunpoint. Voltaire (French writer and philosopher), “God is not on the side of the big battalions,īut on the side of those who shoot best.”

There are two types of ion colors oxidising and non-oxidizing. How to choose the best Ion Permanent Hair ColorĪn ion permanent colour is a type of permanent hair colour that uses chemicals called ion to penetrate into the hair shaft and change it’s structure. Remember, tint does not lift tint! When wanting to go lighter in shade selection you must remove the previous color first in order to go lighter! If wanting to stay the same shade level or going darker, color removal is not necessary in most scenarios. If you touch up your roots every 4-6 weeks and would like to change colors you would still only retouch the roots and refresh the ends later in the processing time. The finished color is left on the hair for 30 minutes and is then removed with the appropriate shampoo. Your hair is then blow-dried using a round brush and hot air. Hair is rinsed thoroughly and towel-dried to ensure that excess color is removed and that the hair is completely dry.

Spectra 2 breast pump9/1/2023 ![]() It also has mesh pockets on the inside of the bag, a perfect place to store accessories without having to dig to the bottom of the bag. It is very spacious and does not have an issue carrying the pump and all its accessories. The grey carrying bag is a much higher quality than i was expecting so i was very pleased! it is also much larger than I was expecting. I was very surprised to see that there was an ice pack and an additional 2 bottles! Though the bottles dont have nipples, they still have the stoppers and caps, which will be nice for additional breast milk storage. big enough for at least 4 bottles, or plenty of room for a few bottles and breast milk storage bags. Inside the big box were each item packaged individually (the pump, the cooler, and the bag) The packaging was very nice! there was one big box. I wish there is memory for all cycles and minutes spent on cycles and could just replay the combo instead of having to press all the buttons every single pumping session□️įirst of all I would like to state that there are way more accessories included than what the description/picture shows. It’s nice the pump lets you customize the programs and switch between massage and differed vacuum programs but again it requires you to pay attention on time and keep pressing buttons to switch from one setting to another. What am I supposed to do with the second cup?! Placing second cup next to the pump resulted in multiple spills of breast milk :/ wish there is place for both cups/bottles and not just one.Ĥ. lastly the pump only has a single cup/ bottle holder. Wander if they ever tested this feature properly.ģ. I had to do this while holding a baby (surprise!) and it’s really frustrating and unnecessary difficult.
