However, the review led by Dame Janet Smith into the BBC and Savile describes a sexual assault carried out by the then 79-year-old presenter on an employee during rehearsals ( I reported that incident to the BBC in 2006), while a separate Scotland Yard investigation revealed a sexual assault on a child during the recording. In a scene at the final Top of the Pops recording in 2006, the arc of the drama requires Savile to be a broken and bitter old man, furious at being a BBC bit-player. Indulgence of the presenter is effectively blamed on the ratings greed of Sir Bill Cotton, the BBC boss who, perhaps conveniently, has been dead longer than Savile. Those investigations did take place but their space and power within the scripts may leave the impression that the BBC was more rigorous than many suspect. Managers are shown trying to bring Savile to account in the 60s and 70s, but are thwarted by his lies and lawyers. In contrast, the BBC seems to get a less severe reckoning. In order, the institutions most discomfited by the drama will be the NHS, the Thatcherite Conservative party and the Roman Catholic church: two sexual assaults take place in a vestry during mass to a soundtrack of eucharistic prayers. The Reckoning is impeccable as far as it goes, but its reception will be defined by debate over those parameters. It fulfils their aim to show Savile from the inside, with particular emphasis on his warped Catholicism, and how powerful people dupe institutions. Technically, The Reckoning is an independent production by ITV Studios, with McKay and Pope denying any censorship. Others think the BBC, which funded Savile’s rise and failed to prevent him offending, should not have been the ones to make it. Some think the drama should never have been made at all. It helps that writer Neil McKay and executive producer Jeff Pope are TV’s supreme court of criminal judgment, having previously brought Peter Sutcliffe, Fred West, Myra Hindley and Ian Brady to their dock. Director Sandra Goldbacher and producer Clare Shepherd never allow the camera to be a voyeur: what Savile has done to the young victims is implied by shocked or tearful faces. The hint of the latter is inevitably one of the bleakest and most startling scenes in TV drama, but it is handled with visual decorum, as are the sexual assaults. Savile’s Chequers seduction of the country’s top politician (who eventually gave him the knighthood he craved) serves as a broader metaphor for how the platinum-haired Yorkshireman groomed and used a prince (now king), a pope (who granted Savile a separate Vatican knighthood), BBC managers (who signed him up to Top of the Pops and Jim’ll Fix It) and NHS bosses, who allowed him the run of their wards to indulge in paedophilia and morgues for necrophilia. ![]() The performance deserves multiple awards, though Coogan may not get them as jurors may balk at being seen to give an award “to” Savile. ![]() He also reproduces, with physiological accuracy rather than caricature, the curious hopping-loping walk and bent-double pounce to kiss a woman’s hand, arm and wherever else he could. Wigs, latex and putty allow Coogan to spookily reproduce Savile at six stages of depravity, but it is the actor’s ear that astonishes, musically notating the differences between on-air and off-air speech and their thickening with age, rage and, eventually, booze. Bookended by reality interviews with four Savile survivors (Darien, Susan, Sam and Kevin), the four episodes cover the years from 1962 to 2011, requiring the 57-year-old Coogan to age down 21 years and up 27 to portray Savile from northern dancehall DJ to corpse.

People also neglect that they can buy a full set of 200 iL perfectly stated gear off the AH. Watch sanghelio's video, he did it in mostly current raid gear too. I didn't even use unbridled and did the bear challenge. Which are minor but obviously still better. All I used was prydaz leggo with hidden satyr and arcano crystal I had lying in my bank. There are plenty of players who didn't farm anything, myself included. ![]() Just when I thought they can't be any more out of touch. ![]() So no tuning or nerfs? Well done /s Comment by sabocan on T18:43:50-06:00 Took them til today though to fix the Soul Trap exploit that basically trivialised P1 and made this change as well. the nethers were already the easy part Comment by Crusherix on T18:38:46-06:00Īs a guardian druid i'll have even more fun getting cancer from trying to keep Velen alive. This change only makes it more annoying for guardian druid. However it seems like they fixed almost all cheesy trinkets. I agree that blizz should have looked into scaling of gear and gave everyone the same template of stats so everyon would have the same challenge. Meeting the DPS check while having X more variables to consider with the now even more erratic behaviour of Horrors is not a nerf. Why in the world would they stop them in place while casting. I’d rather they not move while actually channeling. The Druid change makes the tower more difficult on P2 and has no sense. I don't really comprehend either why the BDK challenge has more HP than any other tank, when it's currently the less hitting tank of them all and, while this is not a problem on P1, P2 can't take too long or you will definitely wipe. The blood DK change is a welcome one, it was by far the hardest challenge cause you were forced to run bonestorm and save blood boils to kill one every two set of adds, and forced to take one orb on the second wave. Seems like the person who made the druid "hotfix" has never played the challenge in Shadowlands. If we take out the exploits and cheeses (that were already fixed), the "plenty of people" gets really lower.īasically people who farmed bizzare old gear to exploit the crazy scale ended up finishing it. The rewards are just cosmetic so I don't see why blizz should change it to antorus difficulty of mage tower, which was basicly a freebie. Feels sad that so many people complain that the challenges are way too hard and impossible, even when you see plenty of people have already done it. Let's hope these are the only changes that happen to the mage tower tuning. ![]() Most of the carbon in the ocean is in the form of bicarbonate ions, which can combine with seawater calcium to form calcium carbonate (CaCO3), a major component of marine organism shells.Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in water, combining with water molecules to form carbonic acid, which then ionizes to carbonate and bicarbonate ions.The biogeochemical cycle occurs at a much slower rate than the biological cycle since carbon is stored in carbon reservoirs for long periods of time.The biological carbon cycle is the rapid exchange of carbon among living things autotrophs use carbon dioxide produced by heterotrophs to produce glucose and oxygen, which are then utilized by heterotrophs.Carbon is present in all organic molecules carbon compounds contain large amounts of energy, which humans use as fuel.Although much of the debate about the future effects of increasing atmospheric carbon on climate change focuses on fossils fuels, scientists take natural processes, such as volcanoes and respiration, into account as they model and predict the future impact of this increase. This is another example of how human activity indirectly affects biogeochemical cycles in a significant way. The large numbers of land animals raised to feed the earth’s growing population results in increased carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere due to farming practices, respiration, and methane production. Carbon is released as carbon dioxide when a volcano erupts or from volcanic hydrothermal vents.Ĭarbon dioxide is also added to the atmosphere by the breeding and raising of livestock. Carbon sediments from the ocean floor are taken deep within the earth by the process of subduction: the movement of one tectonic plate beneath another. Another way for carbon to enter the atmosphere is from land by the eruption of volcanoes and other geothermal systems. A non-renewable resource is either regenerated very slowly or not at all. Fossil fuels are considered a non-renewable resource because their use far exceeds their rate of formation. Deeper underground, on land and at sea, are fossil fuels: the anaerobically-decomposed remains of plants that take millions of years to form. This carbon can be leached into the water reservoirs by surface runoff. On land, carbon is stored in soil as a result of the decomposition of living organisms or the weathering of terrestrial rock and minerals. Over geologic time, the calcium carbonate forms limestone, which comprises the largest carbon reservoir on earth. These organisms eventually form sediments on the ocean floor. Some of these ions combine with seawater calcium to form calcium carbonate (CaCO 3), a major component of marine organism shells. More than 90 percent of the carbon in the ocean is found as bicarbonate ions. \( \newcommand\): Formation of bicarbonate: Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form bicarbonate and carbonate ions.

![]() Meanwhile the left button summons up the AF-point selection screen, necessitating all points of the controller be used for navigation, and the up direction calls up exposure compensation. The left and down directions on the controller summon-up the flash and drive mode sections of the function menu (which mean the up and down arrows then scroll up and down the other function menu options). The main one comes from the fact that two of the directional points on the four-way controller take you to predefined places in the function menu, while the other two have distinctly different behaviors. There are a couple of odd quirks that need to be learned before you feel completely at home with it, though. Specific handling issuesīeyond these two slightly odd omissions, there's very little to highlight about the XZ-1: for the most part, it's a camera that's so straightforward as a shooting tool that you barely notice yourself using it (which is exactly what a good camera should do). Many compact cameras have some method of locking focus or exposure independently, so this is an area where being able to reconfigure a button would be valuable (there's that big red movie button that stills-shooters might welcome another function for, for instance). The XZ-1 has 11 manually selectable AF points but if these aren't near enough to the edge of the frame for you, you have to point the camera at the subject you want to focus on, knowing that the camera will base its exposure on that same framing. The ability to separate where the camera takes its metering value from and where it sets its focus from is key for the focus-and-recompose method of photography. ![]() The lack of an AEL/AFL button is more pressing. This is not to say that the default level is wrong, just that there will be some shooters that would like the choice. The inability to fine-tune the amount of noise reduction being applied in the JPEGs is a shame. Although it's an advanced, raw-capable model, the vast majority of XZ-1 owners are likely to shoot JPEGs for much of the time. ![]() There are only two significant casualties of this keep-it-simple philosophy: the lack of an AEL/AFL button and the lack of any control over noise reduction. ![]() People often ask: “Why do we build and fly instruments like JWST? What are we looking for out there?” We don’t know exactly that’s why we’re doing it. And you can count on us following this mission throughout its operations, sharing its discoveries with you as they happen. ![]() You can join me and the rest of The Planetary Society community tomorrow as we watch NASA release the first batch of images from JWST. We here at The Planetary Society are particularly excited about JWST’s ability to examine planets around other stars, which might unlock new insights into the possibilities of life beyond Earth. It could change the world. We’ll also get some of the initial science gleaned from the telescope’s observations, including an analysis of the components of an exoplanetary atmosphere. Tomorrow, NASA will release even more images from JWST. This is something worth celebrating today and always. There’s no doubt that countless of today’s young people will be inspired by JWST’s work to dedicate themselves to exploring this Universe we inhabit. Those scientists-and-engineers-to-be may have been inspired by the Hubble Space Telescope, which has been capturing jaw-dropping images of its own since the 1990s. ![]() To say that we’ve been waiting a lifetime for this image isn’t an overstatement work on this mission started in 1996, back when some members of today’s JWST mission team were just little kids. What we’re seeing is ancient light, reaching us after billions of years of travel, a snapshot of what the early Universe looked like more than 13 billion years ago. As far as we know, the speed of light is constant and finite. These galaxies are fantastically distant, more than 13 billion light-years away, from the very farthest reaches of the Universe. The image we see today is from an instrument much farther from Earth, where space gets especially cold. JWST’s predecessor, the Hubble Space Telescope, sent us its own iconic deep field images from low Earth orbit. A “deep field” image is one that peers into the blackness of space in between visible stars to capture distant, dimmer stars and galaxies. ![]() Red Coat Tavern, Luxe Bar and Grill, Sprout House Southwest: TACOS - El Asador, Hygrade Deli, El Barzon, Honey Bee Market (best salsa & avocados in town), Los GolanesĮastern Market/Southeast: Beyond Juice, Supinos Pizza, Zeffs, Detroit Vegan Soul, Roses Fine Food, Metropolitan Kitchen, Stache International, Milano Bakeryīeyond Juice, Commonwealth, Toast □, Social Kitchen & Bar Midtown/New Center: Selden Standard, Hopcat, Seva (Vegetarian/Vegan), Alley Taco, La Feria □️□, Motor City Brewing Works, Honest John’s, Z's Villa, Jolly Pumpkin, Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken, Pho Lucky, Que’s Kitchen□✊□, Yum Village, Supercrisp ✊□, Ima ✊□, Detroit Shipping Co., Bronx BarĬorktown: Mudgie's Deli, Batch Brewing Company (team fav❤️), Bobcat Bonnie’s, Ima, Folk, Lager House One Eyed Betty's/ Weekend Only, Pop’s for Italian / Weekend Only, Public House - Newly renovated garden room / Weekend Only, The Emory, Bobcat Bonnies □️□, Toast □, The Fly Trap □️□ĭowntown: Dime Store ✊□, Chickpea in the D, Townhouse, Central Kitchen + Bar ✊□, Savannah Blue, Maru Sushi, Basement Burger Bar, Shake Shack, La Lanterna, La Pecora Nera, Apparatus Room at the Detroit Foundation Hotel, Avalon □□️□, Karl’s, Parc, Eatori Market Iron Horse / Sunday Only (team fav❤️), Café Muse, First Watch, Pronto, O.W.L.

(Photo: USA Today Sports and X via The SportsRush)į Giannis Antetokounmpo, G Damian Lillard, F Khris Middleton, and C Brook Lopez But will it be enough to get them the title in 2024? Time will tell. The addition of Damian Lillard will help Milwaukee significantly, and it will help Giannis and Milwaukee be a much more potent offensive team. They were able to get some much needed offensive firepower by adding Damian Lillard via trade, and it’ll be interesting to see how far Milwaukee will go in 2024. This year, the Bucks will bring back Giannis, Middleton, and Brook Lopez, but they’ll need to ensure that they stay healthy in the playoffs. And then, they shook up the NBA world by trading away Jrue Holiday and Grayson Allen to Portland land superstar point guard, Damian Lillard to pair him up with Giannis. As a result, they dismissed longtime head coach Mike Budenholzer and hired Adrian Griffin to be their head coach in an attempt to switch things up. ![]() ![]() Since then, they have been bounced out of the playoffs earlier than expected for the past two seasons, as they have dealt with injuries and at times questionable play or coaching in the postseason.
