Designed by French architect Joseph Gire, it was built in a style that follows the line and model of the great beach hotels of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and opened on August 13, 1923.

## Hotel Copacabana Palace na Praia de Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro

Na verdade, mesmo eu tendo nascido no bairro e ter me criado na praia de Copacabana, só me dei conta daquele "prédio branco" fincado no meio da praia quando tinha uns 8 ou 9 anos de idade

A descoberta foi acompanhada de histórias que meus pais me contaram sobre aquele edifício enorme que se destacava!

Adulto a gente pode chamar o Copacabana Palace de imponente!

Mas acho que o cinema influenciou muito mais!

Sim, vários filmes em preto e branco, também tiveram importância na formação do meu imaginário e lembranças sobre o Hotel Copacabana Palace, todos ligados a artistas deslumbrantes passeando pelo entorno da piscina do Copa ou nos salões que a minha mente criou.

Sempre me lembro de Fred Astaire e Ginger Rodgers num clássico da sessão da tarde em Voando para o Rio - Flying down to Rio de 1933!

O Hotel Copacabana Palace foi um projeto do empresário Octávio Guinle, encampado pelo presidente Epitácio Pessoa, de construir acomodações modernas e de altíssimo nível, de qualidade suficiente para hospedar reis, rainhas e autoridades e os principais convidados para a Exposição do Centenário da Independência do Brasil, em 1922 e, ao mesmo tempo, criar condições para o desenvolvimento de Copacabana como bairro balneário.

Construído entre os anos de 1917 e 1922 não ficou pronto a tempo da exposição e foi inaugurado mais de um ano depois em 13 de agosto de 1923.

Além de inúmeros benefícios e incentivos fiscais, uma das exigências de Octávio Guinle foi que o hotel pudesse contar com um cassino.

Por conta da construção do hotel aconteceu uma grande obra de urbanização da Avenida Atlântica comandada pelo prefeito Paulo de Frontin, concluída em 1919.

O Hotel Copacabana Palace foi projetado pelo arquiteto francês Joseph Gire com o comando e a realização das obras realizado pelo engenheiro César Mello e Cunha.

A dificuldade de fazer a construção em terreno instável e arenoso e pelas várias ressacas que aconteceram ao longo das obras, em especial a de 1922 que terminou destruindo quase que completamente a Avenida Atlântica e toda a reforma feita em 1919, foram responsáveis, em parte, pelo atraso das obras.

Inspirado nos hotéis dos balneários franceses de Nice e Cannes, a construção usou material importado como toneladas de cimento da Alemanha, de onde também vieram os cristais da Bohêmia, os vidros da Eslováquia, os mármores de Carrara na Itália foram bastante usados além de móveis franceses, entre outros luxos!

E até na noite da inauguração aconteceu outro imprevisto com a recusa da artista francesa Mistinguett em fazer o show!

Já em 1924, o sucessor de Epitácio Pessoa, o Presidente Arthur Bernardes, tentou cassar a concessão alegando atrasos na construção, numa batalha jurídica que se estendeu por dez anos e finalmente ganha pelo Copacabana Palace em 1934!

E em 1925 chega a primeira celebridade mundial para se hospedar no Copacabana Palace: Albert Einstein!

No final dos anos 1920, o Copacabana Palace seria palco de um "atentado" contra o Presidente Washington Luís quando sua amante, uma senhora francesa, numa briga num dos salões do Copa, deu um tiro no presidente, sem maiores gravidades e prontamente socorrido pelo Dr. Francisco de Castro que estava presente na hora.

Dia de sol na varanda do Copacabana Palace

E um incidente trágico relacionado a Alberto Santos Dumont, em que chegando ao Brasil em 03 de dezembro de 1928 de viagem no navio Cap Arcona aconteceu um acidente terrível envolvendo vários amigos de Santos Dumont que desejando lhe prestar uma homenagem embarcaram num pequeno hidroavião batizado com o nome de Santos Dumont e numa manobra errada caiu no mar, pegou fogo e explodiu, matando de uma só vez Paulo de Castro Maia, Tobias Moscoso, Amoroso Costa, Amauri de Medeiros, Frederico de Oliveira Coutinho e Ferdinando Laboriau.

Profundamente abalado, Santos Dumont fez questão de participar das buscas pelos corpos dos amigos e muito deprimido se hospedou no Hotel Copacabana Palace.

Em 1930 os salões do Copacabana Palace serviram de cenário para a primeira edição do concurso de Miss Universo, na época chamado de "Concurso Internacional de Beleza"!

Havia um desfile de automóveis abertos com as Misses pela Avenida Atlântica para a população e depois desfilaram na hoje famosa varanda do hotel sob aplausos do público aglomerado na frente na calçada onde sagrou-se vencedora a representante brasileira, a gaúcha Yolanda Pereira (Pelotas, 16 de outubro de 1910 - Rio de Janeiro, 4 de setembro de 2001) foi a primeira Miss Universo!

Já em 1931 as ações ficaram por conta do Príncipe Edward de Gales, que depois seria o Rei Edward VIII da Inglaterra, e seu irmão George em sua passagem pelos quartos do Copa!

Edward, apaixonado por uma jovem brasileira, lindíssima, chamada Negra Bernardez, já seria um problema se ela ainda não fosse o que na época se chamava de "desquitada" e, pior, mãe de dois filhos (um deles, Manuel, foi o jornalista Maneco Müller)!

Em 1933 aconteceu a consagração definitiva do Copacabana Palace quando o Hotel "serviu de cenário" para o filme americano "Flying down to Rio", estrelado por Fred Astaire e Ginger Rogers (que dançam juntos pela primeira vez) e Dolores Del Rio.

Na verdade totalmente rodado em estúdios e praias americanas, o filme foi um grande sucesso e se transformou num clássico!

Para dar um refresco, no ano seguinte, foi encomendado um projeto ao engenheiro César Mello e Cunha de uma piscina que em 1934 seria contruida onde ficava a Pedra do Inhangá e nos dias de hoje é uma das principais atrações do hotel.

, é finalmente inaugurado o Golden Room do Copacabana Palace com um show da maior celebridade da época: o francês Maurice Chevalier que fez um show memorável!

Pressione e reserve no Copacabana Palace

Os anos 1940 veem a chegada da 2ª Guerra Mundial e do alinhamento de Vargas com os aliados.

Como o Rio era um dos poucos destinos para onde se podia viajar sem perigo de ser atingido por bombardeios e, com a política de boa vizinhança firmada no ano de 1942, as grandes estrelas de cinema e outras celebridades passaram a visitar o Rio de Janeiro, se hospedando no Hotel Copacabana Palace onde poderiam jogar no fabuloso Cassino!

A lista de nomes é extensa mas de Fred Astaire e Ginger Rogers e Dolores Del Rio até Katerine Hepburn, Clark Gable, Edward G. Robinson, Lana Turner, Orson Welles, Walt Disney (dizem que ele criou os primeiros esboços do "Zé Carioca" ainda num quarto do Copa) entre muitas outras celebridades

O armistício e o fim da guerra encerrou a política de boa vizinhança e logo em seguida, em 30 de abril de 1946, com a proibição do jogo no Brasil, pelo decreto do Marechal Dutra, foi o momento certo para o início de uma grande reforma, encomendada ao arquiteto Wladimir Alves de Sousa, que adicionou mais dois andares ao edifício, uma pérgula que é, até hoje, um dos pontos de encontro da alta sociedade e, na Avenida Nossa Senhora de Copacabana foi construído um anexo que foi inaugurado em 1949 enquanto que o Cassino se transformou no Teatro Copacabana que logo se firmou como um dos mais importantes palcos da cidade.

A década de 1950 trouxe o Anexo inovando como um hotel residência para os ricos ou famosos que poderiam dispor de uma privacidade maior e com o mesmo serviço classe A do Copacabana Palace.

Baile de Carnaval do Golden Room do Hotel Copacabana Palace em 1954

E durante os anos 1950 e também nos anos 1960 aconteceram célebres bailes de carnaval nos salões do Copa onde a nata da sociedade carioca da época sem misturava a mulheres lindíssimas e ao fabuloso desfile de cada baile onde se apresentavam, em fantasias deslumbrantes, personalidades com projetos de grandes artistas plásticos!

Em 2017 a Rainha do Baile do Copacabana Palace com o tema "Gueixa" foi a apresentadora de TV Sabrina Sato, em 2016 a rainha foi a jogadora de volei Mary Paraiba.

Mesmo com a mudança da Capital do Rio de Janeiro para Brasilia, e com o início de uma certa decadência do Rio de Janeiro, nos anos 1960 o Copacabana Palace manteve-se intocável no posto de melhor hotel do país onde se hospedavam as grandes celebridades visitando o Rio de Janeiro e centro da vida social do Rio de Janeiro já que a noite de Copacabana fervia com suas boates e clubes noturnos e, sem contar, que o Copacabana Palace fica a 200 metros do famoso Beco das Garrafas de onde surgia uma música com uma batida diferente...

Uma dessas estrelas que prestigiaram o Copa foi Brigite Bardot, então no auge do seu sucesso!

Brigite Bardot na mureta do Hotel Copacabana Palace

Os anos 1970 viram a grande transformação na praia de Copacabana com as obras de alargamento da Avenida Atlântica que deram ainda mais destaque a um Copacabana Palace já cercado de prédios!

O conjunto do Hotel Copacabana Palace foi tombado em nivel Federal, Estadual e Municipal em 1985 respectivamente pelo IPHAN, INEPAC e DGPC e em 1989 o Grupo Guinle com a certeza da missão cumprida decidiu se desfazer do Copacabana Palace.

O Grupo Orient Express, um dos mais renomados e tradicionais grupos de turismo do mundo adquiriu o Copacabana Palace para em seguida fazer uma grande reforma de atualização de toda a sua estrutura, como se diz hoje em dia um upgrade do Copa do século XX para um hotel moderno em sua estrutura de serviços mas tradicional no melhor sentido inclusive na sua arquitetura.

E em 2014 uma grande polêmica em torno de uma mudança na bandeira do hotel, de Orient Express - que o grupo avaliou ser mais ligada a transporte que hospedagem - para Belmond, a nova marca internacional dos hotéis de luxo da compania, inclusive alvo de ações judiciais contra a mudança devido ao tombamento como bem imaterial da Cidade do Hotel Copacabana Palace.

Mas a qualidade é a mesma só muda a etiqueta!

Lalonde builds on Liberal legacy in Ottawa-Orleans | Ottawa Citizen

(meta data) PUBLISHER: https://www.facebook.com/TheOttawaCitizen

Heading into the election, both the Liberal and Conservative candidates had reason to believe they could win the riding for their respective parties.

Andrew Duffy, Ottawa Citizen & Samantha Wright Allen

Liberal Marie-France Lalonde and Phil McNeely celebrate her election victory in the riding of Ottawa Orleans.

Liberal Marie-France Lalonde is on her way to a surprisingly easy victory in Ottawa-Orleans, where at press time she held more than half of the vote with nearly 90 per cent of polls reporting.

"I'm here to serve, to listen, to lead and to act in the best interests of the people of Ottawa-Orléans," Lalonde said from her event after Thursday night's win.

She took to the stage to shouts of "Marie-France" from the more than 70 people that packed the room.

"Our first priority is to pass our budget; we need this moving forward to work on everything else," she said.

"The reliable health care, investment in education and getting some great jobs here in Ottawa-Orléans."

Tory Andrew Lister, who finished a strong second in 2011 to Liberal Phil McNeely, was unable to match his previous vote totals.

With 216 out of 244 polls reporting, Lalonde had 25,376 votes compared to 15,376 for Conservative candidate Andrew Lister and 4,179 for NDP challenger Prosper M'Bemba-Meka.

Heading into the election, both the Liberal and Conservative candidates had reasons to believe they could win this riding for their respective parties.

Liberal Lalonde was building on the electoral legacy of retiring incumbent Liberal MPP Phil McNeely, who held the riding for more than a decade.

Conservative Lister had been hoping to recapture Ottawa-Orléans for the first time in more than a decade, but he was among the Tories swept aside by the surprising strength of the Liberal tide.

In #ottorleans, Tory Andrew Lister is not expected to appear until 10 p.m. when voters' choice is clear.

— Andrew Duffy (@citizenduffy) June 13, 2014

Running for the NDP was Prosper M'Bemba-Meka, a cancer researcher and toxicologist.

The Green Party candidate is PR professional Bob Bell.

The campaign was marked by some sharp exchanges between the two frontrunners, including an open letter from Lister to Lalonde in which he denounced one of her election pamphlets both for its "blatant misrepresentation" of the Tory platform and its spelling.

In the French-language pamphlet, referring to students, Lalonde wrote "les etudients" instead of "les étudiants."

"As a francophone candidate in a heavily francophone community, such an obvious spelling error in your flyer is most disappointing," Lister wrote, adding: "I hope that you will apologize to all francophones for this serious error, especially les "edutients."

Lister, however, suffered collateral damage during the campaign when party leader Tim Hudak announced that a Tory government would not contribute to the next phase of Ottawa's mass transit plan, which would extend the LRT east to weary commuters in Orléans.

Late in the campaign, Hudak appeared at Lister's campaign headquarters to backtrack and reassure voters that Ottawa will get its "fair share" of transit funding after the provincial deficit is eliminated.

Lister, a fluently bilingual lawyer and founder of the Lister-Beaupré law firm, had expected to win his contest with Liberal Marie-France Lalonde.

But, like many Tories, it was not his night.

Tory Andrew Lister said he has no regrets about his campaign.

"I don't think anyone saw this coming," he said in an interview.

He said people at the door appreciated the party's honesty.

"But I think people were afraid," he said.

"The message of fear that the Liberals put out was successful in scaring enough people.

Unfortunately, I think they're going to find out that they may have backed the wrong horse and that everything we said would happen will happen.

"I'm concerned about the future of Ontario to be perfectly blunt."

Lister watched Tory leader Tim Hudak give his concession speech before delivering his own late Thursday.

Born and raised in Ottawa, Lister is a father of two who has also volunteered his time to work for a number of local charities, including the Ottawa Boys and Girls Club, the Ottawa Chamber Music Society and the Great Canadian Theatre Company.

He wanted to enter politics, Lister said, because he was concerned by the sorry state of public finances in Ontario and the province's persistently high levels of unemployment.

My work, especially since Refashioning Futures: Criticism after Postcoloniality (1999) and Conscripts of Modernity: The Tragedy of Colonial Enlightenment (2004), has been concerned with the reconceptualization of the way we think the story of the colonial past for the postcolonial present.

This has involved a variety of kinds of inquiry (taking the Caribbean as my principal "field" of engagement), into tradition and generations, friendship and dialogue, self-determination and sovereignty, tragedy and temporality, and transitional justice and liberalism.

Omens of Adversity: Tragedy, Time, Memory, Justice (2014) and Stuart Hall's Voice: Intimations of an Ethics of Receptive Generosity (2017) are varying instantiations of these preoccupations.

I am currently working on a biography of Stuart Hall, as well as a study of slavery, evil, and repair.

I continue to edit Small Axe, and direct the Small Axe Project, which is involved in a number of special initiatives around visual, translation, literary, and historiographical issues.

Contact the Freedom of Information Committee for more information: spjnorcalfoic@gmail.com.

In addition to Close, this year's honorees are:

The East Bay Times and NBC News Bay Area will receive awards in the News Organization category.

The East Bay Times is honored for its relentless efforts to obtain police body camera videos, inspection data, and other public records in the wake of the deadly Ghost Ship fire.

The paper's reporting won a Pulitzer Prize and exposed deep public safety failures in Oakland.

NBC News Bay Area investigated thousands of owner move-in evictions in San Francisco and found that hundreds of residents had been wrongfully evicted, prompting a crackdown on evictions and the passage of new legislation to protect tenants.

The Animal Legal Defense Fund wins an award in the Non-Profit category.

The Animal Legal Defense Fund successfully challenged two components of Idaho's ag-gag law in federal court, with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals finding that the law—which included a ban on recording inside factory farms—was "targeted at speech and investigative journalists" contrary to the First Amendment.

Lisa Pickoff-White of KQED and Jennifer Wadsworth of San Jose Inside and Metro Newspaper will receive Journalist Awards.

Pickoff-White's public records requests and data journalism fueled KQED's coverage of increased Immigrations and Customs Enforcement detentions under the Trump administration, struggling desegregation efforts in San Francisco schools, and the North Bay fires.

Wadsworth exposed abuse of public funding by the Milpitas city manager to fund his personal lawsuit against the mayor.

Susan Fowler and Dr. Joel Moskowitz win Citizen Awards.

Fowler was an early voice in what became the #MeToo movement, blowing the whistle on workplace sexual harassment at Uber and giving voice to women in the tech industry and beyond it.

Moskowitz, the director of the Center for Family and Community Health at UC Berkeley's School of Public Health, successfully sued the state under the California Public Records Act, securing the release of a report on cell phone radiation commissioned by California's Department of Public Health.

Joanne Hoeper and Yesenia Guitron win awards in the Whistleblower category.

Hoeper, the former chief trial attorney for the San Francisco City Attorney's Office, began investigating sewer repair claims in San Francisco in 2011.

She documented fraudulent practices, inflated payments, and lax monitoring within her own office, and lost her job when her investigation led to members of City Attorney Dennis Herrera's inner circle.

A jury awarded her $2 million (later raised to $2.6 million) in damages in her whistleblower lawsuit.

Guitron is one of the first whistleblowers to call attention to the Wells Fargo sham account scandal.

When Guitron began working as a bank teller at Wells Fargo in 2008, she noticed that bank employees were pressured to open unauthorized accounts.

She reported this misconduct to human resources and to Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf, but her warnings were ignored and she was fired in 2010.

Since Wells Fargo's misconduct was revealed in 2013, Guitron has finally been credited for giving early warnings about it.

She has testified in Congress and in a criminal case against Wells Fargo.

Marcy Burstiner will receive the Beverly Kees Educator Award.

Burstiner teaches investigative reporting at Humboldt State University, guiding her students to harness the power of the California Public Records Act.

The most recent class project led by Burstiner detailed why so many homeless HSU students are forced to live out of cars or crash on friend's couches and received national recognition.

She is the author of Investigative Reporting: From Premise to Publication.

Gabriel Sandoval will receive the Student Award.

Using public records, Sandoval revealed that CSU, Chico's former vice president for business and finance, Lori Hoffman, was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by the university after she had already stopped working for the school.

Ben Friedland, the creator of BartCrimes.com, wins an Electronic Access award.

When BART cut off access to its daily crime report last year, Friedland built his own website to publish daily logs of crimes committed on BART property.

His work increased transparency for the public.

James McManis and Karl Olson win awards in the Legal Counsel category.

McManis and Olson successfully argued before the California Supreme Court to establish that records related to public business that are prepared, owned, used, or retained by public officials on their personal electronic accounts and devices are "public records" subject to the California Public Records Act.

# Wilmer Valderrama Joins NCIS as Season 14 Series Regular

This is one way to get those young female demos up: NCIS has recruited That '70s Show's Wilmer Valderrama to join the Season 14 cast as a full-fledged series regular, TVLine has learned.

The actor, who just wrapped a five-episode arc on Grey's Anatomy, will play a "once grounded NCIS field agent who accepted a deep cover assignment years ago and never resurfaced.

Many agents don't know he's still on the job or that he's even alive.

Now, he's back and his dedication to job and country has left him an unpredictable, charismatic loose cannon."

In a statement, exec producer Gary Glasberg said the role will allow Valderrama to "flex his dramatic, physical and comedic talents," adding, "Fans are going to see him like they've never seen him before.

Valderrama's hiring comes as NCIS heads into its first season without Michael Weatherly, whose 13-year run on the CBS juggernaut ended with last month's Season 13 finale.

It also follows last spring's casting of British actor Duane Henry and 24 alum Sarah Clarke in recurring roles.

Thoughts on this unlikely piece of casting?

Did you do a double take when you saw "Wilmer," "Valderrama" and "NCIS" all in the same headline?

Salyer and Beh were aspiring filmmakers in Los Angeles when they founded it in the early 1970s.

(meta data) TITLE: The Project | The Women & Film Project

(meta data) PUBLISHER: https://www.facebook.com/WordPresscom

Women & Film, the first ever feminist film magazine, was published in California during the early 1970s.

It was founded by two women, Siew-Hwa Beh and Saundra Salyer, both young, aspiring filmmakers who had been involved in the radical political movements of the previous decade, including the anti-war movement and women's liberation.

Despite its informal distribution networks and financial constraints, the magazine reached innumerable readers across the United States and had subscribers from around the world.

Many of the magazine's contributors went on to play major roles in the development of film theory and criticism and include scholars such as Bill Nichols, Chuck Kleinhans, Julia Lesage and Constance Penley.

My project is an attempt to retrace the story of the magazine's founding, development and demise against the tumultuous backdrop of late 1960s and early 70s America, specifically US film culture and the women's movement.

Rooted in the activism and counterculture of the West Coast during the 1970s, the magazine bridges the gap between the first impassioned critiques of mainstream American and European cinema informed by second wave feminism and the pioneers of the women's film movement, with the later establishment of feminist film theory and criticism and the practitioners of women's counter-cinema, such as Laura Mulvey, Peter Wollen, Yvonne Rainer and Sally Potter.

This blog is the online facet of my PhD thesis, begun in 2011 at Royal Holloway, University of London.

It encompasses the cooperation and contributions from several of Women & Film's founders, writers and editors in tandem with my own historial investigation into the period from which it emerged.

In addition to this, my study takes into account the magazine's place in the development of feminist film criticism, with reference to both early women's writing on film and the poststructuralist theories of the 1970s.

NEWS | TERRORISM STRIKES IN JAMMU | REPORT

### Pak tests Ghaznavi missile amid world condemnation

Pakistan on Sunday test-fired the short range surface-to-surface missile Haft-3 (Ghaznavi), the second missile test in two days.

Pakistan had test-fired the medium range surface-to-surface missile Ghauri on Saturday

The second test came despite international condemnation of the first test.

Immediately after the second missile test, United States President George W Bush joined his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in expressing his 'strong reservations' over the test.

Bush urged India not to see the recent missile tests as a 'provocation'.

"Obviously we hope that there is restraint in the area, that the tests will not be seen as a provocation," Bush said.

"Everyone can understand danger in the region.

We are hopeful that slowly but surely we can erode that distrust," Bush said.

Putin also expressed regret over the tests.

"We are deeply concerned about the rhetoric.

It is very important for President Musharraf to do what he said he's going to do... on terror, and that is stop the incursions across the line," Bush said, while urging Musharraf to put a curb on Islamic militancy.

Echoing strong anti-war sentiments, Bush on Saturday had said, "There's no benefit of war... there's no benefit of a clash that could eventually lead to a border war."

Two brands are manufactured: Upper Canada Lager, a German-style lager and Upper Canada Dark Ale, "with a robust malty character and a rich chestnut colour".

Sorry, you must be of legal drinking age to visit this website.

Founded in 1834 by John H. Sleeman, shut down in 1933 for involvement in bootlegging during prohibition, and reopened 50 years later by John Sleeman with his family's original recipe book, the Sleeman Brewery currently produces over ten unique brews, with additional seasonals created every year.

Staying true to its roots, Sleeman Brewery continues the tradition of brewing beer that is Notoriously Good.

Sapporo is Japan's oldest beer, first brewed in 1876 by German-trained Japanese brewmaster Seibei Nakagawa.

Sapporo's crisp and refreshing taste has been enjoyed for over half a century in North America.

Today, this top-selling Japanese beer is internationally renowned as a leading premium brand.

The first brewery of its kind in North America, Unibroue has become one of the world's foremost brewers of bottle-refermented specialty ales, inspired by the great Belgian brewing tradition first established by Trappist monks hundreds of years ago.

Unibroue's ales are alive, increase in complexity over time, and with proper storage, can be aged for three to five years.

Established in 1985 and still brewing in the same location today, the Okanagan Spring Brewery resides in the heart of BC's treasured Okanagan Valley.

For all those who appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into making a great beer, Okanagan Spring continues to deliver on its promise to brew exceptional ales and lagers that offer a distinctive taste and unsurpassed quality.

Pabst Blue Ribbon's history dates back to 1844, when it was brewed in the finest traditions of an American Premium Lager.

The ORIGINAL Blue Ribbon beer uses the choicest natural ingredients to provide its prized flavour.

The original smoothness goes down easy — without even a hint of bitter aftertaste.

Today, this classic American beer is being adopted by a new generation of beer drinkers.

Brewed since 1934, Old Milwaukee is a beer rich in American history that has always stood for unwavering quality.

Old Milwaukee offers consumers an American-style lager that is crisp, clean and made for easy drinking.

Brewed by the Stroh Brewery in Wisconsin, Black Bull is an American-style beer with a medium body and a sweet aroma of grain and malts.

A well-recognized and popular strong beer brand throughout North America, Colt 45 has a distinctive taste profile that starts off crisp and finishes smooth and easy.

Colt 45 is a tried-and-true favourite among consumers who agree "It works every time!"

Maclays Pale Ale is renowned for its golden colour and fine head, a nose that gives mild aromas of binned apples and a light and creamy mouth feel with smooth, mild malt and hop flavours.

Rainier knows what consumers want when it comes to a great American-style lager.

Our use of fresh ingredients and pure mountain water creates a beer that is smooth and drinkable with an overall crisp, fresh taste.

Celebrating its Pacific Northwest roots, Rainier has been keeping customers satisfied with its Mountain Fresh taste since 1878!

Brewed by the Stroh Brewery in Wisconsin, Red Bull is a strong and robust beer with aromas of pear, malt and grain.

It is brewed with special roasted malt, to give the brew remarkable smoothness and a creamy finish.

Upper Canada Brewing Company was the first microbrewery in Toronto.

Two brands are offered: the most popular of its brews, Upper Canada Lager, a German-style lager; and Upper Canada Dark Ale, with a robust malty character and a rich chestnut colour.

Upper Canada Brewing Company is a division of Sleeman Breweries in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Founded by Frank Heaps in Toronto, it started brewing beer in 1985 and grew to become one of the largest independent breweries in Canada.
 While an independent, the brewery's location was at 2 Atlantic Ave. in Toronto and included a "gift shop" that allowed the independent brewer to sell alcohol on Sunday, something that Ontario's licensed outlet Beer Store chain, which had a virtual monopoly on beer sales, was not permitted to do at the time.
 The company was sold to private investors in 1995, went public in 1996, and was finally acquired by Sleeman Breweries in 1998.
 Sleeman purchased the company for $28 million and reduced the number of Upper Canada products since they were competing with the Sleeman line. The new owners also closed the Toronto brewery and moved the operations to its Guelph, Ontario facility.


With the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536, ownership of the town was transferred to Edward North, 1st Baron North, whose son, Roger North, became resident in Mildenhall for a time.

Flushing June 1586, Utrecht and Harlingen July 1586; PC and treasurer of the Household Aug. 1596.3

Roger North was born in the same year that his father became clerk of the Parliaments.

Little information survives about his boyhood and youth.

He may have been a student of Peterhouse like his brother Thomas, the translator of Plutarch, but his admission to Gray's Inn in 1561 was probably honorary.

The generally accepted date for his marriage is an error arising out of a confusion between two Henry Dudleys, both sons of the Duke of Northumberland.

One died in 1544, the other in 1557; all North's children were born by 1556.

Young North excelled at tilting, and at one tournament Princess Elizabeth rewarded him with a scarf of red silk, a token which figures proudly in a fine contemporary portrait.

He became a member of Elizabeth's Household upon her accession and was created knight of the Bath at her coronation.4

Doubtless his father's prestige and influence procured North's first election to Parliament in 1555 at the age of 24,when he was returned as senior knight of the shire for the county of Cambridge.

Despite his father's standing at court, North voted against a government bill and his absence from the next Parliament may be attributable to this opposition.

His Protestantism later took a Puritan form.

In later life he was to remain an active magistrate in Cambridgeshire, and to become high steward of the borough, while winning national fame at court and on the battlefield.

So I aired on the safe side and didn't count any notes from this song.

There are a falsetto G5 at the end of D.D. and some full C5s

All of those notes are beneath the threshold and will not be included.

I personally appreciate that this thread is frugal with bolded notes.

Favourite voice: Mimi, Bey, LISA CIMORELLI

So apparently the reports that the highest note he'd hit (without falsetto at least) was a B4 are false.

But oh that magic feeling, nowhere to go, nowhere to go...

Tesfaye cites Michael Jackson, Prince, and R. Kelly as his main musical inspirations. He has attributed Jackson's music as key in spurring him to be a singer, referencing the lyrics to "Dirty Diana" as an example. He also said his high-flying vocal style was influenced by habesha singers like Aster Aweke. He grew up listening to a variety of music genres, including soul, hip hop, funk, indie rock, and post-punk.
 Tesfaye's songs are "built around a fogged, crepuscular production", and feature slow tempos, rumbling bass, and forlorn echoes. Tesfaye often sings in a falsetto register, exhibiting an enticing tone.  J. D. Considine finds his singing's "tremulous quality" similar to Michael Jackson, but writes that he eschews Jackson's "strong basis in the blues" for a more Arabic-influenced melisma.

# Buffy, Freddy, and Romero star in grindhouse-style Black Ops DLC

## The new George A. Romero-inspired zombie for Call of Duty: Black Ops stars

The "Escalation" content pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops is almost ready for release and, unsurprisingly, it contains a zombie-themed level.

But "Call of the Dead" isn't just your standard zombie soldier set-up.

With heavy George A. Romero and grindhouse influences, not to mention an aptly star-studded line-up of characters, it's sort of like Black Ops and House of the Dead: Overkill had a baby.

Romero is not only the inspiration for the upcoming level—he has a cameo appearance as well.

And starring alongside him are Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Robert Englund (Nightmare on Elm Street), Michael Rooker (The Walking Dead), and Danny Trejo (Machete).

In the game they'll be playing four survivors fighting off Soviet zombies in a "mysterious, ice-covered, remote Siberian island."

Aside from the grindhouse-inspired storyline, we don't know much about "Call of the Dead."

But if the launch trailer is anything to go by it looks like Treyarch is pretty committed to making a fun, over-the-top zombie experience, which should fit in nicely in the Black Ops world.

The new stage is launching alongside four brand-new multiplayer maps to form Black Ops' second content pack.

Though it's coming to other platforms eventually, "Call of the Dead" is going to be a timed exclusive, hitting the Xbox 360 first on May 3.

The PlayStation 3 received the map pack on March 3, 2011 and the PC version was released on March 25, 2011 through Steam. The Map Pack includes additional maps that can be played in the Multiplayer. These maps include "Berlin Wall", "Discovery", "Kowloon" and "Stadium" and a map for the Zombies mode titled "Ascension" which takes place in a Soviet launch site. On April 11, 2011, a second map pack called "Escalation" was announced by Activison and Microsoft. It features 4 new multiplayer maps named "Zoo", "Hotel", "Convoy", "Stockpile" and one new zombies map named 'Call of the Dead'. This map is based on the movies by George A. Romero, the revolutionary epic-zombie-horror director. The trailer for this map shows the four playable characters: Danny Trejo, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Robert Englund and Michael Rooker. The name is a reference to the immensely popular Dead Series created and directed by Romero. The trailer also offers a sneak peek of a zombiefied version of George A. Romero himself, lurking out of water. The map is set on a ship, with instead of Nazi zombies, shipcrew zombies.


On August 3, 2015, "Variety" reported that Otter Media will unveil Ellation, a new umbrella company for its subscription-based video services including Crunchyroll.

# Chernin, AT&T Set Brand for New Online Video Venture: Ellation (Exclusive)

Otter Media, the joint venture between AT&T and the Chernin Group, is about to unveil a new brand for its subscription-based online video services this week: Ellation is going to be the new umbrella company for video services including Crunchyroll, Creativebug and SoompiTV, Variety has learned.

While work on Ellation has largely been hush-hush over the past couple of months, its goal is to build between 30 and 50 separate niche online video channels appealing to highly engaged audiences willing to pay for premium content, according to multiple sources familiar with these plans.

The unit is being led by former YouTube executive Tom Pickett.

The Chernin Group teamed up with AT&T on Otter Media in April 2014 to invest in and launch online video services.

Armed with a $500 million war chest, Otter has since acquired a majority stake in Fullscreen as well as Crunchyroll and Creativebug.

But Otter was always just supposed to be the joint venture umbrella, with separate business units under it: One of them is Fullscreen, the YouTube multi-channel network and services company.

The other one has been largely built around Crunchyroll and its successful anime video subscription service.

Early on Crunchyroll executives toyed with plans to branch out and build a new type of online video subscription platform for users who don't subscribe to traditional cable anymore, a project that was internally called "Second TV."

An early mock-up of a Second TV app, presenting access to multiple subscription services through a unified interface.

After the acquisition through Otter Media, these plans accelerated, and talent from Hulu and YouTube was hired to staff the new company.

Pickett, who served as VP of content at YouTube, came on board in October.

However, the name Second TV was quickly abandoned, in part because executives didn't want to position these new services as second to anything.

Rumor has it that the project was internally code-named "Hampton" for some time.

Eventually, Ellation was picked as a word play on the Aleutian Islands, a chain of volcanic islands between Alaska and Russia that appear to be separate islands, but are part of the same volcanic arc under the sea level.

That idea of interconnected islands resonated with the Otter Media team, given Ellation's mission to launch many more services.

Some time in the last few days, employees started to switch their Linkedin profile affiliations from Otter Media or Crunchyroll to Ellation, and a new website went up, complete with a mission statement: "We build premium video experiences for passionate fans and provide sustainable business models for content creators."

For Ellation, Crunchyroll is a kind of proof of concept: The service has been one of the success stories of paid niche content, attracting more than 600,000 paying subscribers, according to sources familiar with the company.

However, nobody knows how many of these superfan communities actually exist, and how many online video services consumers are willing to add to their monthly bill.

 On October 30, 2013, Crunchyroll began digitally distributing 12 different manga titles from Kodansha – series such as "Attack on Titan" and "Fairy Tail" were part of the manga that were available initially – through Crunchyroll Manga.
 On December 2, 2013, The Chernin Group, former News Corp. president Peter Chernin's holding company, announced that it has acquired a controlling interest in Crunchyroll. A person with knowledge of the transaction said the price for the acquisition was close to $100 million. The Chernin Group said that Crunchyroll management and existing investor TV Tokyo will maintain a "significant" stake in the company.
 On April 22, 2014, AT&T and The Chernin Group announced the formation of a joint venture to acquire, invest in and launch over-the-top (OTT) video services. Both companies committed over $500 million in funding to the venture. The new company was named Otter Media and became the majority owner of Crunchyroll.


At the completion of the season, Warlick was fired as head coach.

# Lady Vols part ways with Holly Warlick

Tennessee's coach Holly Warlick reacts to play on the court against South Carolina Sunday afternoon at Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville.

Updated at 11:19 p.m. on Wednesday, March 27, 2019, with more information.

Tennessee has parted ways with women's basketball coach Holly Warlick after seven seasons.

Reports of the move began leaking late Wednesday afternoon, and athletic director Phillip Fulmer confirmed the decision later in the day.

"Holly and I met this afternoon, and I informed her of the decision to change leadership within the program," Fulmer said in a release.

"Holly has dedicated most of her adult life to the University of Tennessee and the Lady Vols program.

She loves Tennessee, and Tennessee needs to always love her back.

She was front and center as this program developed into the model for women's intercollegiate excellence.

"While it certainly stings to make this decision, I am charged with doing what I believe is best for this storied program.

It's important to all of us that Lady Vols basketball maintains its status among the elite."

Assistant coach Dean Lockwood will maintain operational oversight of the program until a coaching hire is made.

Warlick finished 172-67 with the Lady Volunteers, winning the Southeastern Conference regular-season title in 2013 and 2015 and the SEC tournament championship in 2014.

They advanced to the NCAA tournament in all seven of her seasons, reaching the Elite Eight in 2013, 2015 and 2016.

Her last season ended in a 19-13 record and a first-round loss to UCLA in the NCAA tournament.

It was a season embroiled in negativity, with a six-game losing streak and the first home loss in school history to Vanderbilt in the regular-season home finale.

Warlick was an assistant under Pat Summitt, and was a part of 949 of Summitt's 1,098 wins.

She was also the first All-American in Tennessee history, earning the honor three times while setting several records.

"I was a part of this program," Warlick said after the Lady Vols lost to UCLA on Saturday.

"I played here; I obviously coached with Coach Summitt and was a head coach.

I just want to be remembered for my passion for the program, passion for the game.

I think it's a great game, and if I had a daughter — whether I'm coaching or not — I'd send her to the University of Tennessee because they care about women.

"That's what you want: You want a woman to have that opportunity to be successful."

Warlick also continued the Lady Vols' longstanding 100-percent graduation rate for players who have completed their collegiate careers at Tennessee.

 The Lady Vols finished the season 19–13, 7–9 for a seventh-place tie in SEC play. They lost in the quarterfinals of the SEC Tournament to Mississippi State. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament where they lost to UCLA in the first round.

WSDOT announced on December 21 that it would not resume Amtrak service on the Point Defiance Bypass until positive train control is implemented in 2018.

Washington state transportation officials say they won't restart passenger service along the rail line where an Amtrak train derailed Monday until "positive train control" safety systems are in place.

Washington state transportation officials won't restart passenger service along the rail line where an Amtrak train derailed until advanced safety systems are in place, a spokeswoman said Thursday.

Barbara LaBoe, a spokeswoman for the Washington state Department of Transportation, said passenger trains will use the older rail line along the coast until "positive train control" technology is ready for the Point Defiance Bypass route.

The Amtrak train that derailed on Monday, killing three people and injuring dozens more, was on its inaugural passenger run along the new bypass line that was to speed service south of Tacoma.

Investigators still examining the cause of the crash say the train was traveling 80 mph when it entered a curve that has a speed limit of 30 mph.

Positive train control systems can detect a train that's exceeding speed limits and slow the train.

Crews have been working to set up those systems on the Point Defiance Bypass route — and had hoped to have it ready at the start of service — but were still in the testing phase this week.

Officials had been working on an "aggressive" timeline to finish the new line this year, with documents showing the state had a deadline of the middle of the year to finish construction in order to fully collect on federal stimulus money awarded years earlier.

The state had also vowed to open service in the fall.

LaBoe said the decision to halt passenger service on the new route until the systems were in place was not an indication that the state considers the tracks unsafe.

She said the new line had been thoroughly inspected and that it was a matter of sensitivity, for those killed in the tragedy and for those who will ride the route in the future.

She also said officials were wanting to have renewed conversations with communities along the new route.

"It's not a question of the safety of those tracks," LaBoe said.

The older route where trains will continue running also does not have the train-control technology, but LaBoe said the state has been operating there for many years without major issues.

LaBoe said the state didn't know when the train-control systems would be ready for the new line.

A spokesman for Sound Transit, which owns the tracks, has said it's planning to activate the technology before the end of June.

Sound Transit has also been working to get more train-control coverage for its Sounder trains.

The National Transportation Safety Board, which is investigating this week's derailment, has long pushed for train-control systems, repeatedly citing the issue after deadly crashes.

In 2008, Congress mandated that railroads use the computerized systems by the end of 2015.

But, facing cost and implementation challenges, the industry convinced Congress to extend the deadline until the end of 2018.

Accidents have continued to draw attention to the issue, and some have had speed similarities similar to Monday's crash.

In 2013, a Metro-North passenger train in New York derailed while traveling 82 mph at a curve where the maximum authorized speed was 30 mph, according to the NTSB, killing four people and injuring dozens.

In 2015, an Amtrak passenger train in Philadelphia derailed while traveling 106 mph around a curve where the speed was restricted to 50 mph, according to the NTSB, killing eight people and injuring many more.

Earlier this year near Steilacoom, Pierce County, an Amtrak train derailed.

Officials blamed speed and human error in that non-fatal accident, saying the engineer approached a drawbridge above the 40 mph speed limit.

That accident occurred on the older route where trains will continue traveling.

Amtrak temporarily suspended service for south of Seattle for several hours because of the accident, resuming on the former coast route and the old Tacoma station. Southbound automobile traffic was rerouted away from I-5 by WSDOT until the site was cleared of debris and inspected. On December 18, JBLM allowed southbound traffic through from DuPont to State Route 510 near Lacey.

Specifically, research shows that e-commerce market is expected to grow to over $20 billion by the year 2020 among these GCC countries (Yuldashev). The e-commerce market has also gained much popularity among the western countries, and in particular Europe and the U.S. These countries have been highly characterized with consumer-packaged-goods (CPG) (Geisler, 34). However, trends show that there are future signs of a reverse. Similar to the GCC countries, there has been increased purchase of goods and services in online channels rather than offline channels. Activist investors are trying hard to consolidate and slash their overall cost and the governments in western countries continue to impose more regulation on CPG manufacturers (Geisler, 36). In these senses, CPG investors are being forced to adapt e-commerce as it is effective as a well as a means for them to thrive.
 In 2013, Brazil's e-commerce was growing quickly with retail e-commerce sales expected to grow at a double-digit pace through 2014. By 2016, eMarketer expected retail e-commerce sales in Brazil to reach $17.3 billion.


"De:vadasy" has been released in the United States by Media Blasters under their non-adult Anime Works label.

A young boy decides to join a secret paramilitary organization, Spirits, in order to avoid school and follow some cute recruiter chick.

His adopted sister gets mad and joins Spirits out of pure spite and jealousy.

Once they arrive, they realize it's a training center for pilots in order to pilot the mecha Devadasy, which is humanity's last hope.

It requires a pilot (a male) and a battery (which is female).

The male pilot is then sexually aroused by the fighting, who transfers his sexual vibes to the female battery, whose orgasms power the mecha.

That's right, folks, Devadasy lives up to its name - for a devadasy is a Hindu cultic prostitute.

We guess whatever it takes to save the world...

Somewhere in Japan, a bored AIC scenarist watched Evangelion and wondered what would happen if you replaced the Judeo-Christian imagery with the Kama Sutra.

Two years later, somewhere in Arizona, a scream of sheer horror came from the very pit of despair as THEM purchased, and watched the final product.

We wasted thirty dollars and ninety minutes of our lives for THIS?!?

Media Blasters has a habit of releasing little-known series here in the States.

Unfortunately, this is one of the titles that should've been better off left little known.

But De:Vadasy could've been so much better (read: actually worth watching) if it had done either of the following - played up the obvious Evangelion-goes-Tantric parody, or decided to go all-out hentai.

Instead, it does neither, trying to take itself seriously and to have "meaning".

The series, therefore, comes off as being half-hearted on all accounts.

Maybe even less than half - this series has no heart at all!

For starters, the prime requirement of being a Devadasy "battery" is nymphomania.

Hey, wait; doesn't that sound just like Big Wars?

Actually, this really is Big Wars all over again, except that they don't even bother to go to Mars, and they've replaced the wonky land-battleships with giant robots.

The animation itself relies heavily on the same tinted-light scenes as any other Eva clone, especially in the final installment.

A lot of the "action" is melty-people horror, which is a common enough malady in bad anime (see Baoh, Genocyber, et cetera).

At least they have the common courtesy to explain away as "being absorbed by nano-machines", which is a step above trying to pawn off people as being bags of blood.

Of course, the action could've benefited from a semblance of exposition or plot, neither of which was ever present in the three episodes we viewed.

They never fully explain what's up with the nano-machines, or why Devadasy has been hiding in Tibet for millennia, or why Amala still looks like a high-school girl when she's obviously a bit older than that.

But the real problem with this anime is Kei Anno (yes, you heard that right), the completely unlikable lead of this show.

He doesn't even have half the personality of Shinji.

He doesn't know whether he wants to be a slacker or a pervert, and comes off as more of a puppet than anything else (unless he's in the mecha, where's he's just a raving psycho).

Not to mention that he treats all the, err, harem around him like complete crap, especially his "adopted sister" Naoki.

All except for Amala, who is apparently only in this anime to have lots and lots of off screen sex with Kei.

Which is really, REALLY bad when you figure out their true relationship, which is also insanely squicky (and taken straight from Evangelion to boot).

Otherwise, well, the music was unremarkable (there was music?), and the animation quality itself, while obviously glossy and high budget, seems utterly wasted on this show.

Usually AIC is better than this, with a track record including Bubblegum Crisis and El Hazard, but unfortunately, this title is a lot closer in quality to its misfires, like Cybernetics Guardian ... if not even a bit worse.

And even the promotional art is misleading and inaccurate.

It features a whole bunch of female characters, but the show really only focuses on Amala and Naoki as being Kei's prospective incestuous prostitutes, err, "batteries".

(The rest of the girls, it is assumed, are only present in order to facilitate the incredibly ludicrous classroom masturbation scenes halfway through the show.)

The sad thing is that instead of being shocking and thought-provoking, or even funny or titillating, De:Vadasy is like dragging a long-dead horse through the swamps of mediocrity, through the valley of the shadow of death, and beyond.

It isn't really worth it unless it was free (and the viewer was carefully sedated).

It's already stolen an hour and a half of our lives!

Recommended Audience: Occasionally falling into softcore pornography, this title features non-explicit sex scenes, sexual innuendo, misogyny and maltreatment of women, animated violence, and coarse language.

"De:vadasy" was initially released in Japan marketed as an all-age appropriate title, but was soon changed to being classified as an adult-only title.  Though the anime contains no explicit on-screen sexual content, the change to being classified as an adult title was made due to implied off-screen sex and significant innuendo, as well as changes in Japanese law around the time of its release.  No edits were made to the content of the anime in the change from an all-age to adult title.
