Australia lockdown arrests12/30/2023 ![]() ![]() South Australia police said no arrests were made at an anti-lockdown protest in Rundle Park in Adelaide. “The actions they have taken are likely to prolong the very lockdown they were protesting about.” This footage reveals a little of the current scene, with Aussies protesting against draconian lockdowns, and police in riot gear arresting them in large numbers. “That small minority has again chosen to blatantly ignore the very clear, repeated warnings of NSW police, which is disappointing, frustrating and – frankly – disgraceful,” he said. 2020 is looking eerily similar to 1854 for the people of Victoria, Australia’s second most populous state. The state’s police minister, David Elliott, said he was disappointed some people ignored warnings to stay at home. New South Wales police said they made 47 arrests and issued at least 261 penalty infringement notices across the Sydney CBD and regional NSW. Police also issued 137 tickets after stopping around 38,000 cars approaching Sydney. Trains were not allowed to stop at city centre stations. In Sydney, police deployed more than 1,500 extra officers and issued orders banning taxis and Ubers from taking passengers into the CBD until 3pm on Saturday. Queensland police said no arrests had been made Photograph: Dave Hewison/Speed Media/Rex/ShutterstockĪ crowd estimated in the thousands gathered in Brisbane City Botanic Gardens to rally against the lockdown and vaccine measures. New Zealand police found three buckets of KFC chicken and an undisclosed quantity of fries when they arrested two men trying to cross into Auckland despite city's strict lockdown. Police on horseback lined up to block the march, which appeared to start in Russell Street and join other groups. Public gatherings were not allowed in Victoria as the state tried to contain a surge in coronavirus cases. People of all ages were seen walking through the streets, shouting for “freedom” while police condemned the marchers as selfish. Social media videos showed hundreds were in attendance with some letting off flares. “Further investigations will be conducted into offences committed during the protest including the assault of numerous police officers and the use of flares.” ![]() Police also issued an additional 236 fines and said three people were expected to face charges for assaulting police. One officer was hospitalised with a broken thumb and others suffered concussion.Įach of the 218 protesters arrested would be fined $5,452 for breaching public health orders. Two police officers suffered broken noses. Police said they had, for the first time during a lockdown protest, used non-lethal tactics that included rounds of pepper spray projectiles and canisters. More than 700 extra Victorian police officers were deployed to contain the lockdown protest. The state recorded 77 new cases of coronavirus on Saturday. The Melbourne protests took place after Victoria’s premier, Daniel Andrews, announced a lockdown in place across Melbourne would be extended across the entire state.

Wit and wisdom insync12/30/2023 The appellation’s cahier des charges (list of rules and regulations) has recently (as of November 2023) been given a detailed (complicated) update. The Côtes du Roussillon AOC is a broad appellation approved for the production of dry, still (non-sparkling) red, white and rosé wines. Wine has been produced in the area since (at least) 600 BCE. The appellation-located on the eastern side of the Pyrénées-Orientales department-enjoys a warm, Mediterranean climate and is described as a vast, east-facing amphitheater surrounded on three sides by mountains and on one side by the sea. The Côtes du Roussillon AOC covers certain dry wines-red, white, and rosé-produced in the Roussillon region located in the south of France. Nickles…your blog administrator: Dispatch from the Côtes du Roussillon AOC Some bitter and/or tannic notes may be noted as well. Primary, herbaceous, and vegetal aromas are typical, as is a good balance of acidity. It is described as being clear and bright, and ranging in color from intense yellow to amber/orange. It may be produced using the same grape varieties as allowed in the appellation’s white wines-Chardonnay, Garnacha Blanca, Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Moscatel, Parellada, Sauvignon Blanc, or Malvasia (Subirat Parent)-as well as Xarel-lo Rosado (a pink-berried mutation of Xarel-lo). The Orange Wine of Tarragona is a skin-contact white wine macerated on the skins, seeds, and (perhaps) stems of the grapes in addition to the juice. Included are various styles of white, red, and rosé wine in addition to oxidized wines (vino rancio), sparkling wines, fortified wines, mistela, and late-harvest wine.Īs of November 2023, as published in the Journal of the European Union, the Tarragona DO is approved for one more style of wine: Orange Wine (referred to as Vino Brisado in Spanish or V in Orange in French). The catalog of wine styles allowed for production under the auspices of the DO is even more impressive and contains no less than ten styles of wine. ![]() White grapes include Garnacha Blanca, Chardonnay, Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Moscatel (Muscat), Parellada, and Sauvignon Blanc. Leading red grapes include Garnacha Negre, Carignan (here known as Samsó or Carinyena), Tempranillo (Ull de Llebre), Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. ![]() The area includes the coastal plain just south of Penedès, the foothills of the Serra de Montalt, and a portion of the Ebro River Valley.Īs befits such a diverse area, the list of grape varieties allowed for use in the DO is long and involved. The eastern section of the appellation stretches along Spain’s Mediterranean Coast, while a smaller outpost is located further inland. The Tarragona DO-registered in 1947-is a diverse, discontiguous wine region located in Catalonia.

Public works damian lazarus12/30/2023 ![]() I’ve got Rampa from Keinemusic on there helping me produce a song with Leon Bridges. I’m trying to make all of these records with different people that you wouldn’t otherwise expect. I have Damian on there with Jungle, who are like a rock band. I have like, TSHA on there who does an amazing wonky U.K. I think my album, if nothing else, is a language of the diversity of dance music. I had just kind of lost touch with that scene. I was so excited about what he was doing, all of these different parties and what it sounded like, I didn’t realize that we all knew each other already. Damian went and started doing this insane desert house thing. We DJ’d Fabric, we all knew Switch, we all came from this one scene of house music. Like, “What’s going on here?” I went to Damian’s party and got his number and texted him, and I literally had his number from like, 15 years ago. I went to Tulum in 2019, just as a field trip. The first album we did with Higher Ground was a Damian Lazarus album. With Higher Ground, are you working spheres of dance that you weren’t as present in before? Stuff like that, correct me if I’m wrong, feels rather new for you. Has the expansion of your Higher Ground label over the last few years created opportunities in realms of dance music that you hadn’t previously been as active in? For example, I saw you were booked at Damian Lazarus’ Day Zero in Israel, and that you played that same party in Tulum this past January. 10 straight house songs that are just like, noises to people. It might be easier to listen to as an album, vs. I wrote some of these records going like, “Change the tempo to 120, let’s make records that are danceable.” I make a record that’s 60 BPM and then flip it… So I made a bunch of records that were pop songs, and then I dressed them up as dance records. I know that I write and arrange records probably actually better than I know how to produce like, techno or something. I had a bunch of gold records that were R&B. It was a whole other lifetime ago, like 12 years ago. When I met Miguel it was with Usher, and I was an R&B producer. Playing dance records is probably the most lucrative thing in my career when I DJ, but I’ve been producing for 15 years. Obviously dance is a genre driven by singles why even group all of these songs together as an album?īecause one thing I do that no DJs do - I really understand songwriting, I think. Here, he talks about crossing musical worlds, the best set he ever played, his recent legal issues, his love for Avicii - and why, after a decade of mainstream EDM verses underground dance music, “in the end, the underground won.” Populated by undergrounds mainstays like Seth Troxler, Damian Lazarus, Amtrac, Aluna, TSHA and Jungle, the artist - as agile with the mainstream as he is with the underground - hopes the album also functions as a primer for new dance listeners to acquaint themselves with the scene’s many sounds and stars. ”) Diplo is intended to function, he says, more “like listening to a mixtape, or like listening at a nightclub.” I don’t know if that was supposed to be a secret, but that’s like, obviously why we’re doing. The artist born Thomas Wesley Pentz, 43, wasn’t making this new batch of songs with an album in mind, today saying that dance albums are simply not “that cool” because “they don’t really work conceptually.” (He also admits that “we put ‘On My Mind’ on there so that we have first week big numbers, because that song already has 200 million streams. Though the DNA of the two albums are the same by virtue of being made by the same person, using similar tools, Diplo - 14 tracks of sleek, deep, buoyant house, tech house and other sounds spanning the underground realm of the electronic scene - is as far away from Florida as Malibu is from Diplo’s native Fort Lauderdale. It’s Diplo’s first all-electronic album in 18 years, since he made the moody Massive Attack homage Florida while, he says, “I was really smoking a lot of weed and getting super high and learning how to produce music.” The occasion is Diplo, out today (March 4) via his underground-oriented Higher Ground label. Nor were promised the countless shows in far-flung reaches of the planet, the private jets, Vegas residencies, cult Instagram following or the big-ass house in Malibu where, this afternoon, Diplo gets on the phone with Billboard. Not that he’d revolutionize the sound of dance music with his dancehall outfit Major Lazer, shift the sound of mainstream pop with Justin Bieber and Skrillex, clock what were then Spotify’s biggest ever streaming numbers, win three Grammys, become a father to three boys or work with everyone from Snoop Dogg to Madonna. Not that his career would soon blow up when he met and produced for M.I.A., with their 2007 collab “Paper Planes” making them both stars. Nothing was assured for Diplo when he was making his first album, Florida, in his bedroom back in 2004. Her spike jonze video game12/30/2023 ![]() The movie follows protagonist Theodore Twombly (Joaquin Phoenix) as he transitions to acceptance and contentment following a bitter divorce. So prepare yourself for a thorough analysis that will answer once and for all: what is the true meaning of Her? It contains a lot of dense material to unpack, but that’s no problem, because at Movies Up Close we never shy away from a difficult movie. Where is the traffic?! The future is bright, folks.ĩ.Spike Jonze’s Her (2013) is weird, outrageous, and uncomfortable. Occasionally, as in one scene where Theodore takes his computer girlfriend to the beach, they ride the subway. ![]() Throughout the film, Theodore and the background actors are all seen walking around town. Why wait until 2015 to complete the Expo Line? The Los Angeles of Tomorrow will please veterans of the city. There’s a Metro to Santa Monica, and Cars Take a Backseat In the future, anything’s tolerable as long as it looks like the holodeck in Star Trek.Ĩ. Case in point: An adventure game Theodore spends most of his time playing is able to interact with him - mostly through expletives and derogatory statements. Clearly, the rampant misogyny found on Call of Duty multiplayer games is now the dominating force behind the industry. Amy Adams even plays a video game developer who is animating a new title called “Perfect Mom,” where players do their best to make bag lunches, clean up the kitchen and get their kids to school on time. Theodore spends most of his downtime playing video games, which appear to be far more important to the culture than movies or television. ![]() Video Games Are Immersive All the Worst Parts of Gamer Culture Magnified ![]() STORY: New York Film Fest: Spike Jonze’s ‘Her’ Closes 51st Edition on an Eccentric Noteħ. (Evidently, Jonze used China for future L.A., where there are skyscrapers and neon signage aplenty.) Finally, the people of Hollywood will know what it’s like to live in the thickest layers of smog. In the future, the parabolic nature of Los Angeles’ skyline will transform into a flat line of 80-story towers. But like it’s always been since the heyday of chat rooms, it takes him only a few minutes to realize her kinky secret. In one scene, Theodore “fools around” with a woman in a phone sex back-and-forth. This makes those faceless Internet chat rooms a little more personal. E-mail, IMs, Google searching - it’s all spoken and heard, even when most homes are outfitted with computer monitors. Everything in Her‘s future is accessible via voice command, and that includes any digital interaction we’re currently accustomed to accomplishing in text form. The magic of AOL circa 1994 is alive and well, though “A/S/L?” is a thing of the past. Sex Chat Rooms Can Be Accessed in Seconds So much for a future where assistants are given phone-in-the-skull implants.ĥ. How far does the Mad Men ripple effect extend? On top of that, he talks to his OS using an earpiece that looks like a hearing aid.

The film takes place in Los Angeles, but perhaps the hipster programmers of Brooklyn’s Dumbo neighborhood set the tone for culture? We poke fun, but most people in Her seem happy and comfortable. Monotone sweaters, checkered shirts, tweed jackets, and the aforementioned high-waisted pants unify the pleasant population. They have those in the future too.ġ940s fashion makes a comeback in Her, set in an apocalyptic world where Uniqlo rules as overlords. Oh, and she hires an OS-friendly sex surrogate to “play” her in bed. Scarlett Johansson‘s character goes to great lengths to be human, giving herself a name (Samantha) and reading up on human characteristics. It’s Now Socially Acceptable to Date Your Phoneĭon’t mistake Theodore’s ( Joaquin Phoenix) digital love for taboo - once operating systems are designed to be sentient and far superior in intellect compared to normal humans, “going steady” with them will be pretty run-of-the-mill. And it flirts while telling you the answer! Which leads to an even greater bit of evolution …Ģ. In Jonze’s vision of the future, artificial intelligence can zip through a year’s worth of reading material to come up with an answer in mere nanoseconds. Today’s iPhone Maps app can’t even locate an Apple Store without first thinking it’s in Siberia. Here are a few of the details Jonze sprinkles in to achieve that unique concept.

Max payne 3 for pc12/29/2023 There's the occasional open area to run around in, but this is a firmly story-driven conveyor belt of gun-action. Of course it lacks the trademark open-worldiness of their original games. The cutscenes that ache to be true cinema, the humour in the media-baiting ultraviolence. The barrelling back and forth between corrupt, glitzy high society and grimy, glittery low-life criminality. The gilded hand of Rockstar is visible in almost everything. And I am not sure it'll matter, because the production is so lavish. Yes, you probably should play Max Payne 3. There's too much game here, and it's too vigorously delivered, for me not to recommend it, but it left me feeling slightly unfulfilled. Despite my upfront positivity, I'm not entirely smitten with Rockstar's hype-logged takeover of the Max Payne series – the rave response it received on the consoles seems a little much for a game that, despite Max's long absence, sits firmly within the kind of problem area outlined in this article from last week's Sunday Papers. But I'm not going to leave this joint without unloading some of my reservations. That alone should be as far as many of you need to read, I suppose. Max Payne 3 is different enough to stand far apart from the previous games, and strong enough in its delivery of slow-motion embittered ex-cop to convince me that it's an okay sequel. A couple of lines made me laugh out loud. James McCaffrey does his best Max so far. The third Max Payne game is a potent cocktail of thumping videogame violence and Rockstarian sleaziness, with a heady shot of technology and character mixed in. It could so easily have missed its mark, fluffed the headshot. And that's symptomatic of the entire game. That could have failed to be interesting, could have lost the thread entirely.īut it works. The satirical, even surreal silliness of the first two games has been replaced with a more acerbic line in self-loathing wisecracks. It's dripping with film-school trickery and action-movie reference. The comic book noir of the original has been rerolled as postmodern cinema. Such a constant bombardment of pseudo-hungover, detuned distortion was a brave move, and it came so very close to not working. He is now a sinewy, self-pitying middle-aged drunk whose damaged consciousness filters the entire game with a poisoned, hallucinogenic migraine of blurring, double-vision, and post-processing glitchery. It's a description that seems entirely appropriate in retrospect, and most definitely fits the Mr Payne of the third game, who has truly fallen. Max Payne 2's subtitle was - perhaps unnecessarily - "The Fall of Max Payne". But it's here now, and the critical shell-casings are beginning to chime on the concrete floor. Remember, GameGal has your back, and I guarantee this game will rock your socks off.Max Payne 3's dive on to PC was in such slow motion that it took a few weeks longer to land than it did in augmented-televisionland. It's time to lock and load, my fellow gamers, because Max Payne 3 is about to bring the heat and leave you begging for more! Whether you're a die-hard fan of the series or a newcomer ready to dive into the crazy world of Max Payne, this complete edition has got you covered. Seriously, you'll be dodging bullets like a pro! Get ready for jaw-dropping graphics, immersive gameplay, and a whole lot of Max Payne's signature slow-motion Bullet Time. So, grab your weapons, and join Max Payne as he dives headfirst into São Paulo's seedy underbelly. But hey, that's what makes it so darn exciting! Max Payne 3 is like a rollercoaster ride where you just can't catch a break, my friends. ![]() Get ready for heart-pounding action, intense shootouts, and a gripping storyline that'll make your head spin. Talk about getting the full Max Payne experience! Why? Well, he's on a mission to guard a wealthy family, hoping it'll help him escape the baggage from his chaotic past.Īnd guess what?

Picture this: Max Payne, the former NYC cop with a knack for getting into some seriously intense situations, ditches the concrete jungle and finds himself in none other than São Paulo.
