# California ghost town sells for $1.4 million

Amir Vera, CNN • Updated 17th July 2018(CNN)

It is possible to buy entire towns these days.

A little over a month after a 19th century ghost town in California called Cerro Gordo went on sale, Brent Underwood bought it for $1.4 million, real estate agent Jake Rasmuson said.

The asking price for Cerro Gordo is $925,000, according to a property listing.

The sale closed on Friday the 13th -- "in true ghost town fashion," Rasmuson quipped.

"We really didn't expect the activity we had," he said, saying that he underestimated the amount of offers the town would receive.

"We received about a dozen offers, Mr. Underwood's offer was appreciated by the sellers," Rasmuson said.

"There were other offers, but Mr. Underwood's plan was beneficial to the preservation and public use of the property.

"Cerro Gordo has been protected from digger, looters and effects from nature, according to the real estate company.

Nolan NitschkeCerro Gordo, which means "fat hill," has 22 structures remaining, including an abandoned hotel, church and bunkhouse.

The abandoned mining town, which occupies over 300 acres of land, had been in family hands for decades, but they felt it was the right time to sell it, Rasmuson said.

Cerro Gordo came into existence as a small mining town after the discovery of silver in 1865.

At one point, it became the largest producer of silver and lead in California, according to its website

."In its heyday, it averaged a murder a week," Rasmuson said.

"After the fall of lead and silver prices, and other setbacks, including a fire

, Cerro Gordo's silver operations slowed and eventually became deserted.

Buildings on Cerro Gordo include a historic hotel, a bunkhouse and superintendents house.

Nolan NitschkeSo what will become of this ghost town?

Ideas ranged from turning Cerro Gordo into a theme park to a marijuana town.

But Underwood, who owns a backpacker hostel in Austin, Texas, called HK Austin, says history is the reason he was interested in the town.

"It isn't often you're entrusted to maintain such an interesting part of American history," he said in an email to CNN.

"The town is so rich in history and has impacted so many lives.

"Underwood said he and business partner Jon Bier had been looking at hospitality locations around the United States that were large enough to create a unique destination.

He said a friend sent him the CNN article discussing the initial sale.

"I knew it was the one," Underwood said.

The asking price for Cerro Gordo is $925,000.

Nolan NitschkeNow that he's bought Cerro Gordo, he says he plans to "renovate a select number of the existing buildings to a point we'd be comfortable hosting people for long periods of time.

includes bringing WiFi to the 19th century property as well, he said.

"We're looking to create a new destination.

It isn't often you're able to have such a canvas to work with.

We have over 300 acres and dozens of buildings," Underwood said.

"We want to maintain the historic nature of the property while introducing amenities that will allow more people to enjoy the location.

"The long-term goals for Cerro Gordo are to bring "high level programming in forms of writing retreats, music events, dining experiences, photo shoots, theater, special events, and more."Underwood

said he wants to create an experience that's available nowhere else.

"Cerro Gordo is a true piece of American history that is impossible to replicate," he said.

's a perfect beach for every week of the year.

In July 2018, Underwood purchased the former mining town of Cerro Gordo for $1.4 million with a group of investors.

SHAKESPEARE AND SONG withOSF COMPANY MEMBERS

Gordon has worked extensively with London's Icebreaker. His work "Yo Shakespeare" was recorded by Icebreaker on their debut Argo/Decca recording "Terminal Velocity", recently re-released by Cantaloupe Music. Gordon's work "Trance" was written for Icebreaker with the additional component of eight brass players. The 52-minute work was also originally recorded for Argo and was released in the autumn of 1996; a new re-mixed version is now on Cantaloupe Music. "Link" was written for the group in 1998, in collaboration with David Lang, as a complementary piece to "Yo Shakespeare" and Lang's "Cheating, Lying, Stealing" for a new ballet by Ashley Page for The Royal Ballet in London, subsequently revived by Page at the Scottish Ballet.
 In 2004 Gordon released "Light Is Calling" (Nonesuch), an album of tracks created with producers R. Luke DuBois and Damian LeGassick, and scored for a small ensemble of musicians (most notably Todd Reynolds on violin) with complex electronic arrangements orchestrated by DuBois and LeGassick. He has since collaborated with DuBois extensively on the electronic backing arrangements for subsequent pieces, including "All Vows" for cellist Maya Beiser (2006, for which DuBois also served as a video artist), "Sad Park" for the Kronos Quartet (2006), and the opera "What to Wear", libretto by Richard Foreman (2006). "The Sad Park" uses the voices of child witnesses to September 11 as its subject. Gordon’s "Natural History", inspired by Crater Lake National Park in Oregon and commissioned by the Britt Festival, was performed in July 2016 on the rim of the lake itself, as part of the 100th anniversary of America’s National Park Service.

The Template:Sclass2- is designed for operations from "Freedom" variant ships.
 The core crew will be 40 sailors, usually joined by a mission package crew and an aviation detachment for a total crew of about 75. Automation allows a reduced crew, which greatly reduces operating costs, but workload can still be "gruelling". During testing of the class lead, two ship's companies will rotate on four-month assignments.
 Four 750-kilowatt Fincantieri Isotta Fraschini diesel generators provide 3 megawatts of electrical power to power the ship systems.
 The Congressional Budget Office estimates that fuel will account for only "8 percent to 18 percent" of the total life-cycle costs for "Freedom". Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama has called the report into question and has suggested that "Independence", built in his state, would be more fuel efficient and that less frequent refuelings would affect military operations beyond the cost of fuel.


After touring with these two releases for more than two years, the band realized they had built up a considerable fanbase, and decided to write a second album.

An interview with Gustav Wood from Young Guns.

Active Rock has been abuzz with a band from the UK as of late.

Their single Bones has taken them out on tour with Seether here in the States at the end of last year.

They are returning to the road with 10 Years starting on the 18th.

You'll be hard-pressed to find a large festival this summer that the band will not be on.

To say that they are well on their way to becoming a household name would be a massive understatement.

It is an absolutely amazing collection of songs and well worth your time to check it out.

Listen to the entire Gustav Wood interview below:

Today I'm welcoming Gustav Wood to the Unsung Melody family.

Gustav is the vocalist of one the fastest rising bands out there.

Gustav, thank you so very much taking the time to speak with us.

For most, your album Bones is the first time they have heard the band here in the States.

Let me just say, I feel this album is an absolute monster.

When writing this album, how long was the process from start to finish?

Well, without going into too much boring history, this album came together very quickly at home here in the UK.

Literally, all we had written before was one EP with four songs on it.

We just wrote enough songs to be able to play a show and things like that.

The press kind of caught hold of that and gave us some favorable reviews and things happened very quickly over here.

We ended up spending 2 or 3 years, most of each year, on the road up until the 2nd record.

The first record was almost an afterthought.

It was something that we needed to put out to continue touring.

So, now we find ourselves in this great position where we do have a fansbase and we're ready to record the 2nd album, but we do not have anything.

We had no material really to fall back on.

Nothing pre-written or any library of riffs that we could go through or anything like that

, so we went into the process a little bit naked.

We gave ourselves about three months off from touring to write and record it.

We spent 4-6 weeks of that unable to write anything.

So, we ended up writing the whole record in about 6 or 7 weeks.

Then we went straight into the studio and recorded it, which took about a month.

So, I'd imagine the whole process took about three months, but a lot of that was us procrastinating and wasting time.

Just butting our heads against a brick wall I guess.

The title track has been doing quite well for you guys.

When you finished that song, Did you guys feel you had something special and was it sort of a surreal moment to hear the finished product?

I think we felt that we had kind of outdone ourselves maybe, on that song.

Perhaps that song, was us realizing what we wanted to do for that record.

To the greatest extent, we managed to nail that song.

I stood back behind the desk in the studio after I finished up tracking the vocals, it was one of the first songs that had everything on it.

It was one of the first songs that I did vocally.

We stood back, it was like four in the morning in this studio in Thailand.

We listened to it and everyone was smiling.

So, every now and again, you can almost accidently listen to your own music as an outsider.

It just happens and you hear it as if it isn't your own band.

That was definitely one of those times and I still liked it.

I think if you are in a band, the greatest thing you can hope for, is to like the music and would listen to it if you weren't in the band.

That's definitely something I will never forget.

I didn't really think that things would progress as far as they have though.

With the American record deal and the way it has been connecting at the radio and stuff over in America is a surprise to us.

We're really lucky and I'm proud of that song.

He had done the last video that we'd shot on our first album.

The album campaign on that record was finished at that point.

So, we wanted to release one more single.

We did a more artistic, creative black and white video.

We got this guy Tim Mattia to shoot it and we really liked him.

We wanted to use him on the 2nd record, but our budget was such that we knew we would only be able to have a big dramatic video from him once in the campaign, but we decided to save it for our 2nd video Bones and I think he did a great job.

There's a lot of great movements, and shapes, and silhouettes in the video.

It's not an overly complex idea, it's just about strong visuals and I think it suits the (song and) video really well.

It has a bit of London in the background as well.

The young lady in the video for Bones, that's not the same lady who appears on the album cover, correct?

The whole idea I guess, is she's kind of mirroring the album art, but she's just a lady that kind of agreed to come and an extra in our video.

I spent an afternoon or so watching her do that bit where she jumps and falling ass lots of times.

Not great for her, but good for us I suppose.

I mean I grew up dreaming that I'd be able to one day shoot a video for a band that I would one day join in my mind.

The first time we did it, it was an amazing thing.

Seven videos later, you're like okay, I get it.

That was one of the better experiences that we've had.

Is there a specific story behind that song?

I mean, with the 2nd record, we wanted to write an album that had a little more to offer.

The first record was the result of being in a musical genre and niche of young UK rock bands.

The 2nd album, we wanted to be a lot more widescreen and just write big rock songs.

I've never written a song about love and I thought, oh okay, I need to write a love song.

I need to keep it fresh and challenge myself.

Being a kind of a dark pessimistic bastard, I ended up running with the idea that love can be a destructive thing, as much as it can be a positive thing.

I just had this line, I want to be the last thing that you see my dearly departed.

So, it's kind of the idea that love can smother, as well as be a positive thing.

So, I suppose it's a love song, but in a very dark, twisted way.

I actually wanted the video to be all of us being killed and buried in different ways, but that didn't go down that well with the people I suggested it to.

Sometimes the end result isn't what you had in mind, but it turned out well.

I think especially with videos, you must always balance what you see in your head with what you can afford and that'll be more often than not, things will be really different.

Personally, I feel you guys have a more Alternative sound mixed with Modern Rock.

I did read in a few different places, where people are saying you guys are leading the New, New Wave of British Heavy Metal.

What does that all mean to you and the band?

When we started the band, we would end up playing on bills, little all day festivals or in little bars or clubs to like 20 people.

We'd play with like tech metal bands or pop punk bands and be stuck on all of these different bills and we just never seemed to find a group of bands that we sonically worked with.

I mean this is about five years ago now.

The musical climate was a little bit different then, but we always found that we stood out.

That's something that we found really unusual to us.

So, people were always putting labels on us and we were kind of surprised by all of this, because as far as we're concerned, we're just a rock band.

We write melodic rock songs, it's not like we are re-inventing the wheel.

People have always struggled to kind of pigeon hole us I think.

We've had a degree of connection at Active Rock radio and that's amazing, but I don't consider us an Active Rock band.

I'm happy to be at the forefront of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal if that's what people say, but I don't consider us a metal band.

I don't really even want us to be limited to being a British band.

I just want us to be a band, but whatever anyone else wants to call us is fine by me.

You are heading out with 10 Years really soon.

It runs for a month, starting on the 18th.

We're hitting up a bunch of places that we've never been to before.

We start in Nashville, which is something that we're all really excited about.

Obviously, there is a lot of musical history there.

Mostly West Coast and we finish up at SxSW.

Which is something that we are really excited about.

We haven't had the chance to do that before.

Actually, we've never even been to Texas, so the band is about to embark on a lot of first time experiences in the United States.

We're looking forward to coming back and playing some smaller club shows after the Seether tour, which were wonderful big theater shows and that happened at the end of last year.

We have a lot more work to do in the United States and it's a great tour to get to be able to come back on.

You'll be playing several festivals in the states this year.

One in particular I want to ask you about is Rock On The Range.

How excited are you guys to be on that show?

I almost feel guilty to be honest with you.

Because things have gone so well for my band, so quickly in the United States.

It's funny, because everybody here in the UK, when things started to happen, our peers were like…"Ugh, America.

Then, we came over and everyone has been really good to us and radio has connected and we've been offered loads of great festivals.

It's amazing, but we can't believe it really.

We're just taking every opportunity that we can and try and take each day as it comes.

We're also playing a whole bunch of other festivals and it's amazing that we are getting to play to so many people.

Alright, I always end on a random question.

If they made a movie of your life thus far, what genre and title be?

A comedy of errors and as for the title, it would probably be something along the lines of, How the fuck did that happen?

That's the state that I exist in permanently now.

Being in a band is something that I always wanted to do and it happened relatively late in the day.

I met these guys like 6 or 7 years ago, while we were working, but this band has really come out of nowhere for us in the past 4 or 5 years.

So, every day we are just asking ourselves, "What the fuck has just happened?"

So, yeah, that's what it would be called.

Gustav, I thank you so much for your time.

The site and myself wish you and the band absolutely nothing but the best.

Hopefully we can catch up at a show sometime soon.

The band's first album, "All Our Kings Are Dead", was created largely as a method to continue touring, as the band felt they needed more than the few songs they had from their previous EP, the "Mirrors EP". The releases were seen largely as a medium to support their live performances, the band's largest focus at the time.


He released a collaborative album with celebrated Canadian producer/musician Daniel Lanois.

(meta data) TITLE: Daniel Lanois and Venetian Snares Team Up for Collaborative Album

# Daniel Lanois and Venetian Snares Team Up for Collaborative Album

Making for a match in Canadian avant-garde heaven, esteemed soundscapers Daniel Lanois and Venetian Snares are joining forces for a new album, believe it or not.

In case you think that news is too good to be true, Venetian Snares (a.k.a. Aaron Funk) recently broke the news on his Facebook, confirming that he and Lanois are not just collaborating on a track or two but an entire album.

Funk wrote: "Happy to share this song from my ongoing collaboration with Daniel Lanois!

We've been recording an album together and will be playing some shows later on in the year, the first being at the Great Hall in Toronto May 31."

For a taste of what the pair are cooking up, they've also shared a lengthy new video of themselves working together in Lanois's Toronto studio on a piece called "Night."

A cryptic statement about the collaborative session reads as follows:

A fly on the wall turned on the camera and captured this studio performance/recording in Toronto.

A rare sighting of this all-Canadian cast - Venetian Snares and Daniel Lanois.

This unusual pairing came about after a street corner hang on Bloor and Dovercourt, where Snares agreed to meet Lanois on the neutral ground of a Buddhist Temple.

Canadian violin player, now filmmaker, Sébastien Leblant caught the secret performance on his pocket cam.

The quietness of the filming plays nicely against the action packed assault of Venetian Snares.

The liquid steel guitar of Lanois speaks of ancient nature before him.

Rumor has it the boys are regrouping in the spring to add fuel to the release of this music with tour to follow.

You can watch the 10-minute clip down below.

As for Lanois, he had this to say about the project:

As mentioned, Venetian Snares and Lanois are indeed playing a show together at Toronto's Great Hall on May 31.

The referendum ballots were shredded and recycled in 2008 after appeals were exhausted.

(meta data) TITLE: Quebec to destroy referendum ballots - The Globe and Mail

(meta data) PUBLISHED DATETIME: 2018-04-27T08:56:01.997Z

Ingrid Peritz MONTREAL Published May 1, 2008 Updated April 27, 2018 Comments

Nearly five million ballots that almost tore up a country are headed to the shredder, ending a 12-year legal saga born in the turbulent wake of the Quebec referendum.

A judge gave Quebec's elections chief the green light to destroy the warehoused ballots yesterday, dashing the hopes of federalists who believed they could unlock the secrets of possible vote-rigging in the 1995 referendum.

To most of Quebec, the ballots are long-forgotten relics of a distant and painful political battle.

But to others, they're historic pieces of evidence.

The focus is on 86,501 ballots that were were marked improperly and never counted in the outcome, a No victory of 50.6 per cent.

The high rate of rejection in certain federalist ridings led the anglophone-rights group Alliance Quebec to seek the preservation of the ballots.

It hoped to find out whether a calculated effort reached into the upper tiers of the sovereigntist Yes organization to thwart federalist No voters.

"This is not about the past; it's about the future," lawyer Michael Bergman, who has been fighting the case, said in an interview.

Mr. Bergman admitted that the ballots, almost all of which he believes were No votes, would not have changed the outcome of the referendum, although they may have driven the No side's real margin of victory to as high as 54 per cent.

Still, he believes they contained clues that could show "the extent and at what level of authority" a Yes-side plot reached.

He favoured handing the ballots to a university or library.

"It's to assure that any future process is open, transparent and legitimate," Mr. Bergman said.

That plan was dashed in a ruling by Superior Court Justice Roger Baker.

He granted a petition by Chief Electoral Officer Marcel Blanchet to dismiss Alliance Quebec's lawsuit, effectively sending 4.8 million ballots to the dustbin.

While the "overtones" of the suit were significant because they dealt with the possible breakup of the country, Judge Baker said he was ruling on a matter of procedure.

Courts are not here to make statements," he said from the bench.

this is not to determine whether Quebec is staying or not in Canada," he said.

The matter before him boiled down to "a procedural entanglement."

He said 13 years had elapsed since the referendum, a "potentially cataclysmic" event in Canada, and "13 years is too long" to deal with the legal request.

Lawyers for the Chief Electoral Officer said the Quebec elections law didn't permit them to make the ballots publicly accessible.

The ballots are preserved in a warehouse in Quebec City at a cost of $12,000 a year.

A spokeswoman said Mr. Blanchet would wait for the 30-day appeals process to elapse before destroying the ballots.

Held in sealed boxes, they would eventually be shredded and the paper recycled.

Mr. Bergman said he is considering an appeal, but acknowledged yesterday's ruling was the end of "a long and winding" battle.

The ballots have been at the heart of multiple court fights and inquiries.

In an investigation, former chief justice Alan Gold of Quebec Superior Court concluded in 1996 that two Yes committee members and 29 deputy returning officers had rejected an unusually high number of No ballots "in a patently unreasonable manner."

Mr. Bergman says yesterday's ruling doesn't put the matter to rest.

"Perhaps now the forensic evidence will be lost, shredded into landfill or incinerated at some point no doubt," he told reporters, "but the controversy remains very much alive."

Directeur général des élections du Québec (DGEQ), Pierre F. Cote , launched an inquiry into the alleged irregularities, supervised by the Chief Justice of the Quebec Superior Court, Alan B. Gold. All ballots of the three ridings plus a sample of ballots from other ridings were examined. The inquiry concluded that some ballots had been rejected without valid reasons, but the incidents were isolated. The majority of the rejected ballots were "No" votes, in proportion to the majority of the valid votes in those districts.
 Two Deputy Returning Officers were charged by the DGEQ with violating elections laws, but in 1996 were found not guilty (a decision upheld by the Quebec Court of Appeal), after it was found that the ballots were not rejected in a fraudulent or irregular manner, and that there was no proof of conspiracy. A Quebec Court judge acquitted a Deputy Returning Officer charged with illegally rejecting 53% of the ballots cast at his Chomedey polling district.
 In 2000, the Quebec Superior Court denied an application by Alliance Quebec that attempted to force the DGEQ to give access to all 5 million ballots, ruling that the only authority that could do so expired in 1996.

# URI Hillel to bring Late Night Players comedy troupe to campus

KINGSTON, R.I. — September 14, 2006 — The University of Rhode Island will present a smorgasbord of sketch comedy on the Kingston campus this month.

The Late Night Players improv comedy group will perform on Wednesday, Sept. 27 at 7:30 p.m. in Edwards Auditorium, on Upper College Rd.

The performance is free and open to the public.

The Boston-based comedy group features four men — Aaron, Seth, Andrew, and Zach — who "tackle life in the 24-hour-information age with a revue of comedy sketches, mixing brainy, sharply-observed social commentary with a healthy dose of escapist absurdity."

Sponsored by Hillel, the Jewish Student Center at URI with support from URI Housing and Residential Life, the show is a featured presentation of URI's 10th Annual Diversity Week.

Having played at college campuses and other venues throughout the country

Their act includes skits, music, slide shows, and an astonishing dance-off.

The group says it takes pride in the fact that they customize every single show they perform and will do the same for this one as part of the University's diversity week.

Andrew Slack, Seth Reibstein, Aaron Kagan, and Zach Sherwin are the Late Night Players.

Friends since their undergraduate days at Brandeis University, the group performs intelligent, socially critical comedy around the country at clubs, theaters, corporate functions, and comedy festivals.

The Late Night Players' comedy has been featured on Myspace.com and AOL Comedy, and the group has shared the stage with such luminaries as William Shatner, the Sklar Brothers (ESPN, Comedy Central) and Demitri Martin (The Daily Show with Jon Stewart).

A documentary about the Late Night Players will screen at the International Independent Film Festival in New York in this fall.

While in college, Sherwin started a sketch comedy group, The Late Night Players.


In May 2019, the second model, the Rocket 3 TFC, was introduced at a motorbike show at Shoreditch, London.

Triumph Rocket TFC and Triumph Thruxton TFC

If you were hoping to get your name on the list for Triumph's bold new incarnation of their Goliath 2500cc Rocket 3 TFC – then you're already too late.

The limited edition relaunched model may have been given a hefty £25,000 price tag, but the entire build allocation disappeared in days.

And in some countries there were far more sales than bikes available – so if any of the successful applicants go bankrupt and drop out, there's a list of desperate hopefuls ready to back-fill the place.

And just to add insult to injury for anyone who's missed the boat, Triumph have also revealed official homologated performance figures for the Rocket TFC.

Exceeding their original cautious claims, Triumph have confirmed a claimed power output of 179.5bhp @ 7000rpm, and 165.9ftlb of torque at just 4000rpm – as well as a dry weight of 290kg, which is 44.5kg lighter than the old Rocket.

## Triumph Rocket 3 TFC revealed as firm's most powerful model!

After steadily teasing since January this year, Triumph have finally spilled the beans on their new Rocket III TFC and the bike looks poised to tear up the record books.

Building on the legacy of the old Rocket III launched in 2004, the new model moves the game on considerably.

At the core of the Rocket remains its gargantuan engine.

Growing in size to 2458cc makes it the largest engined production bike in the world, although it does only steal the crown from its predecessor.

It also takes the torquiest engine award (165.9ftlb) while revving it out will generate 179.5bhp, also gifting it the 'most powerful Triumph yet' title.

All this has been achieved by lightening the internals with exotic tech, such as titanium valves, allowing Triumph to raise the redline.

It's further enhanced by three carbon-tipped Arrow silencers.

This time around the whopper of an engine is paired with an impressive electronics package that should stop you toasting a set of tyres in 100 miles (unless you want to, of course).

The package includes lean-sensitive traction control, cornering ABS, four riding modes plus a quickshifter and autoblipper.

There's also the latest touring comforts like cruise control, hill hold control, keyless ignition and tyre pressure monitoring.

It's all controlled through the full-colour TFT which, with the optional Bluetooth dongle, will pair with a phone giving you GoPro integration, the ability to play music and take calls plus access to Google maps.

It's not all just electronics and a big motor – there's chassis work at play here too.

If the restyle didn't make it obvious enough, the spec sheet certainly confirms that Triumph have aimed the new Rocket squarely at the Diavel, so it will have to handle.

To give it the best chance possible it's fitted with 47mm fully-adjustable Showa cartridge forks, as well as a fully adjustable piggyback shock.

Braking duties are courtesy of Brembo with an adjustable radial master cylinder powering a set of top-spec Stylema calipers – just like the Ducati Panigale V4.

The only thing likely to stop hoards from rushing to their local dealer is the £25,000 on the road price tag....

# An Interview With Gail, A Star Is Born's Best Supporting Character

Without Gail, Ally's star might never have been born.

It takes two hours and 14 minutes for Ally Campana (Lady Gaga) to be born in A Star Is Born, but only one scene for another star to crown: "Hi Ally, I'm Gail!"

Rebecca Field says, popping up in the movie's first act.

As Gail, she's an assistant–cum–talent wrangler, leading Ally and her friend Ramon (Anthony Ramos) from a blacked-out SUV through a tunnel, down a hallway, up some stairs, and — finally! — backstage at the Greek in Los Angeles, where the pair can enjoy Jackson Maine's (Bradley Cooper) show.

Gail doesn't really enter the scene, she just materializes: Click!

And the SUV door opens, Gail introduces herself, and Ally and Ramon shuffle out of the car.

It's the first indication that maybe this surreal second date is really happening.

Ally's ditched her job to show up at some Arizona country star's gig after they spent one night drinking and nose-touching and punching drunk cops.

When Gail shows up, a situation that seemed dreamlike becomes more certain: Maybe Jackson really does like Ally, maybe it wasn't just the gin talking, maybe he definitely remembers her.

Gail instructs Ally and Ramon to leave their bags in the car, that all they have to do is put on the VIP passes she's had made for them, and follow her up to the stage to the greasy-haired crooner.

Gail — this year's Mafalda, nay, this year's Cyril! — has it handled.

Field was surprised by the audience's overwhelming affection for her single Star Is Born scene, which she says was shot over one long night.

(And, she confirmed, Bradley Cooper usually used his deep Jackson Maine voice when directing — yee-haw!)

I didn't really realize that anyone would react," Field told Vulture over the phone.

"I was just sort of grateful to be included in any way and people have had a really nice reaction.

I think [the scene] comes at a really pivotal moment."

A pivotal moment, yes, but also a universal fantasy: Doesn't everyone want a Gail to take care of the details?

Field — who beat out Casey Wilson for the role — talked to Vulture about the movie, Gail, and the other scene she filmed that didn't make the final cut.

Can you tell me about your audition for Gail?

How did you get the part?It was like a year and a half ago, I guess, in the spring.

I think they were a little bit secretive about the project or exactly who was involved.

I knew that Bradley Cooper was producing and directing, I think.

I just went in for an audition and the sides were really fun.

And I played it much more harried and less together sort of like, "Oh okay, I-I got it, Um, I can get this, I can get…" — a little bit more scatterbrained.

They called out of nowhere a month later and said, "Yeah, you booked it."

I shot for like a week with everybody and it was really intimidating but also really fun to meet Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga and Sam Elliott — incredible people.

They had lot of the music cut by then, at least the songs down.

They played that throughout our table read which was really exciting to hear.

I don't know if you saw, but the website Into said that Gail is the real star in A Star Is Born.

I literally thought maybe he was kidding at first, so I read the whole thing and he was like No, I'm not kidding.

I didn't even think about it that way, but I love that was the reaction that he felt he and his friends were feeling, like, this is a very uneasy, unsure moment and I'm freaking out and you know Ally's freaking out and everyone is nervous and then there's Gail, there to guide us and lead us and everything is going to be okay.

I like that she's not harried, that Gail is just the person who arrives in the nick of time.

Right, I mean Bradley he's the one who said, "You're a gangsta," "You got this, you gotta play this gangsta."

He was like, "Is that a weird note to get from a director?"

And I was like, "No, I feel what you're saying."

You're a gangsta, you know exactly what needs to happen.

You're calm, cool, and collected because you do this all the time."

It's also like a funny thing — you could have played it a bunch of different ways in the sense, like sometimes people who are assistants see some new girl coming to see a show, it could have just been like [feigns irritation], "Yeah, come on.

I think there was something unspoken in the way it was written and the moment that was special to him, like, let's take extra care than we normally would.

It shows how important Ally was to Jackson.

I think you have that line, like, "Oh, he's so excited you're here.

"Yeah, [Bradley] said to improv some stuff like that.

That wasn't all scripted stuff so that was nice that he let us improve some of our walking lines.

He's like, "Throw out a little of this, or a little of that," or whatever feels right somewhere along this line.

Logistically, what was it like filming the concert scene at the Greek?

I heard that the audio was quiet on set to get a clear recording.

Was it kind of weird not being able to hear the music all the way?Yeah.

I noticed there was a lot of times where [on set] when she would step onstage you couldn't hear anything at all.

It was almost like she was just miming through it but she must have been singing low just like you said, so that it would sound great for the film.

Can you tell me about the other scene you did that was cut?I'm fine with it, I'm grateful to be on the screen at all.

It was a scene right after the Greek when Jackson and Ally go back to the hotel together and he passes out, and then she wakes up in the morning and he's gone.

I come knocking on the door much in the vein of Greg Grunberg [who plays Phil, Jackson's driver] when he knocks on her door: "I'm here to pick you up to take you to the next stop."

It's another one of those scenes where I've gotta get you on an airplane and she's like, "No where is he?

And I was like, "Well he does kind of disappear sometimes.

But I'm sure he'll be there, he always shows up for the venue.

And she's very pissed at him and then that's also where Anthony Ramos's character comes in and he lets us both know in that moment that she's been on YouTube and that it's a huge sensation.

The Gail line, "Leave your bags in the car," was that improv or was that in the script?

Because that's like my favorite line in the movie.

Yeah, that was definitely in the script.

I had a sigh of relief when you said that.

I mean, that's what I always want to hear: "Oh, leave your bags."Yeah, right?

I know, because I was thinking that too, like, they're gonna lug all their shit?

Gail has it taken care of!Yeah: Your bags will be with you when you need them at the end, so you can sleep and all your shit will be there.

Can you tell me about the first time you saw the movie, and what your reaction to it was?I

hadn't seen it until the night of the premiere here in L.A.

I don't even know what to say without sounding cheesy and gushy.

I was very moved, more than I anticipated being, even though I'd read the script and I knew the story.

And I knew when I was on set how great they both were.

I didn't expect the chemistry and everything and the music to move me as much as it did.

I just feel like it's a movie all about being true to yourself and finding yourself.

Have people recognized you when you've gone to see it at a regular movie theater?Yeah!

One night I went with my friends, these two girls came down the escalator and they were like, "Oh my God, you were in the movie."

It was my one shining moment of Gail, I love it.

What do you think Gail would think about the movie?What do I think Gail would think about the movie?

I think she would think that it was gangsta.

# The Real Star of 'A Star Is Born' is GailBy: Kevin O'KeeffeKevin

every Friday.twitterinstagram 06 Oct 2018

We are of somewhat divided opinion on A Star Is Born here at INTO.

I personally thought the movie's first half was incredible, while the second half fell apart.

My colleague and The Kiki co-host Mathew Rodriguez was more positive on the film as a whole.

But the one thing we can all agree on is that the true star of A Star Is Born is not Lady Gaga.

It's not even Halsey, who shows up to present Best New Artist at the Grammys and isn't even named on-screen.

No, the true star of Cooper's directorial debut is Gail, as played by Rebecca Field.

It's understandable; her role in the film is small.

She's the aide who appears at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles when Ally (Gaga) and her friend Ramon (Anthony Ramos) first arrive.

The sequence is rather fast-paced, as Ally and Ramon were just flown out via private jet to meet Jackson Maine (Cooper) at his concert in LA.

She proves herself a stable guide when Ally starts to go the wrong way, and she gently-but-firmly course-corrects her.

Gail is the reason that Ally is able to get to the stage to perform "Shallow," thus making Ally a viral star, setting her on the course for pop superstardom.

A Star Is Born would not be the same without Gail.

Upon first seeing Gail in the movie, I instantly said, "LOVE Gail."

After seeing the film with a group of five friends, I was heartened that they all had the same reaction to Gail.

We need a full spinoff film about Gail (called Gail Force, as critic Guy Lodge suggested).

We need a Star Is Born extended cinematic universe for characters like Gail.

Because in watching the film — in watching Gail — I knew that her star was being born, too.

## Anchor and Hope Ratings & Reviews Explanation

In their mid-30s, Eva (Oona Chaplin) and Kat (Natalia Tena) have a fun and carefree simple life in their London canal boat until Eva, inspired by her exceptional mother Germaine (played by her real mother Geraldine Chaplin), presents Kat with an ultimatum: she wants a child.

Kat resists, knowing that it will end the bohemian lifestyle that she's always envisioned with Eva.

When Kat's best friend, Roger (David Verdaguer), drops in from Barcelona, the three of them toy around with the idea of creating a baby together.

Kat sees no other way out but to say yes.

As the three begin to look forward as one family, their differing expectations of intimacy and responsibility put a heavy strain on their relationship and threatens to rip the three apart.

## News & Interviews for Anchor and Hope

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald Could Use a Bit More Magic

Too often, viewers just have to take a movie love story's word for it that its characters actually belong together.

Not so in Carlos Marques-Marcet's loose, observant Anchor and Hope.

There's a potentially smart and sexy lesbian dramedy at the heart of "Anchor and Hope" that gets lost amid idiosyncratic filmmaking and a lack of narrative discipline.

It's a thoughtful, honest and touching work, especially for women who love women, and also love canals.

A magnetic journey that reconfirms that cinema is nothing more than a reflection of real life.

Don't get sold into the light-hearted, bittersweet, sugar-coated casing of this film.

David Verdaguer's scene-stealing performance simply can't save Anchor and Hope from its archaic representation of women.

Where Anchor and Hope badly misfires is in the assumptions it makes about what women want, and how women get it.

There are no featured audience reviews for Anchor and Hope at this time.

There are no approved quotes yet for this movie.

The A109 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney 206C engines, housed in independent fire-proof bays and controlled by Full Authority Digital Engine Control Units.

The twin-engine design gives the pilot more flexibility when planning routes over built-up areas, as the aircraft can operate at limited weights on a single engine; therefore even if power from one engine is lost, the aircraft can maintain height to clear the built-up area.

The twin-engine design also increases safety margins when flying in and out of confined landing sites.

The aircraft is a twin-engined, eight-seat helicopter with retractable undercarriage, weighing about 2000 kgs and cleared to operate up to 3000 kgs.

The rotor system comprises three main rotor blades and two tail rotor blades of composite construction.

The A109 has two independent hydraulic circuits, driven from the main rotor gearbox: one provides power to one side of the main servo jacks and gives servo assistance to the tail rotor, while the other services the other side of the main jacks and powers the utility services for undercarriage movement and braking.

Until 2008, when they were replaced by the Dauphins, 8 Flight operated a fleet of 4 Agusta A109s, two of which were captured from the Argentines during the Falklands conflict.

8 Flight is based at SAS HQ at Credenhill, near Hereford.

Currently on lease with 660 Squadron based at RAF Shawbury are two Augusta 109E's for pilot training

Various branches of the Italian military have operated variants of the AW109; the Guardia di Finanza has operated its own variant of the AW109 since the 1980s for border patrol and customs duties, by 2010, it was in the process of replacing its original AW109s with a new-generation of AW109s.
 In 1982, the Argentine Army Aviation deployed three A109As to the Falkland Islands during the Falklands War. They operated with the helicopter fleet (9 UH-1H, 2 CH-47C and 2 Pumas) in reconnaissance and liaison roles. One of the helicopters was destroyed on the ground by a British Harrier attack; the others were captured and sent to Europe in HMS Fearless (L10).
