The weapon consists of the four classical elements, as four engraved stones, plus a sarcophagus containing a "fifth element". They take the only weapon capable of defeating a great evil that appears every five thousand years, promising to protect it and return it before the great evil's re-emergence. In 1914, aliens known as Mondoshawans meet their human contact, a priest of a secret order, at an ancient Egyptian temple. At the time of its release, it was the most expensive European film ever made, and it remained the highest-grossing French film at the international box office until the release of The Intouchables in 2011. The Fifth Element was a strong financial success, earning more than US$263 million at the box office on a $90 million budget. The film won in categories at the British Academy Film Awards, the César Awards, the Cannes Film Festival, and the Lumières Awards, but also received nominations at the Golden Raspberry and Stinkers Bad Movie Awards. The Fifth Element received mainly positive reviews, although some critics were highly negative. Costume design was by Jean-Paul Gaultier. He hired comic artists Jean "Moebius" Giraud and Jean-Claude Mézières, whose books inspired parts of the film, for production design. Besson wanted to shoot the film in France, but suitable facilities could not be found filming took place in London and Mauritania instead. To accomplish this, Dallas joins forces with her to recover four mystical stones essential for the defence of Earth against the impending attack of a malevolent cosmic entity.īesson started writing the story that was developed as The Fifth Element when he was 16 years old he was 38 when the film opened in cinemas. Primarily set in the 23rd century, the film's central plot involves the survival of planet Earth, which becomes the responsibility of Korben Dallas (Willis), a taxicab driver and former special forces major, after a young woman (Jovovich) falls into his cab. It stars Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Ian Holm, Milla Jovovich, and Chris Tucker.

"Accordingly, the ANDA product Eagle is asking the FDA to approve cannot have" a pH in Par's patented range, and "therefore a judgment of noninfringement must necessarily ensue," Connolly said. Eagle asserted in its ANDA that its drug would have a lower pH value than outlined in Par's patents "through the entirety of the products' shelf lives," and it must comply with its ANDA specifications to receive FDA approval, the court said. The measurements for Eagle's product didn't show a "steady and inevitable creep" toward higher pH values, but "minor fluctuations" with no "discernible trend," Connolly said.Ĭonnolly also said Par mischaracterized the high end of Eagle's proposed pH range.

![]() ![]() Yes compression shouldn't be over used, afterall you want to preserve the dynamic range of your recording. That doesn't mean you have to crush it to pieces, be sensible with your compression ratio and just use it to gain volume and stop when you are at a good level. but the fact is that I've never yet had a recording of a big orchestra (with VSL anyways) that didn't need some compression to beef up the volume. will all affect the outcome of the overall loudness. Obviously things like, how you've programmed your velocities and expressions, how close you want your orchestra to be to the mics, and what post-processing you're using. The better answer should be that in the Virtual orchestra world it's nearly impossible to make a recording of decent volume without compressing your tracks to some degree. This usually gets answered with things like 'How dare you even mention the word compression!!'. ![]() Question: "How much compression should I use?" So here's my thoughts on these oft asked questions. ![]() And these points could actually help the question askers much more than being told "Go take a college course!". In fact these questions are asked so often you'd think there'd be a huge wiki article by now explaining the why's and how's.Īfter seeing much of this discussions in similar veins it appears to me that several points are not being mentioned by the 'pros'. More often than not these questions are met with frustrated professionals that end up chastising the newbies for their lack of apparrant knowledge of audio and orchestral mixing. And so these composers turn to the discussion forums asking the oft asked question "How much compression should I use?", and "Why aren't my recordings as loud as a commercial release?". I have to say that the main disputed point of orchestral mixing seems to be that many people have never learned how to do it, and aren't likely to be in a position to be able to study it from a live point of view. I wanted to start a discussion on this if nothing else but to put down some ideas that come to mind. It's quite astonishing how negative the subject of 'Loudness' can be in some quarters. Often I scour the internet looking at discussions on what other professionals and newbies have to say. As you may know I'm one who is constantly seeking better ways to mix and to achieve a realistic recording from virtual instruments. ![]() ![]() ![]() When sounded, each fundamental pitch produces a predictable set of harmonics. The pressure waves which result from the strings you strike, cause the one you are holding to vibrate as well. You will hear multiple pitches sounding all from the same string. With that key still held, strike higher octaves of the same note with a strong attack. By doing this you are lifting the pad that mutes that string, allowing it to vibrate freely. To hear it for yourself, sit at the piano, and press a key very gently so it doesn’t make a sound and hold it. Since the piano is made up of many strings, tuned to different frequencies, pressing one key will cause other notes within it’s harmonic series to sound as well. If you have access to an acoustic piano, there’s a really simple exercise you can do to hear these overtones for yourself. ![]() We call the originating frequency the “fundamental tone” and each of the secondary tones are called “overtones,” or “harmonics.” Hear it for Yourself For example, a string vibrating at 440hz will also produce a secondary vibration at double it’s frequency, 880hz, as well as others at higher multiples (3x, 4x and so on). When played in nature, a single tone played by an instrument will produce several additional pitches which are related to it mathematically. A Single Pitch Will Also Produce Overtone Pitches This shortens the string, changing it’s tension, which raises the pitch. A guitar player can change the pitch of the string while playing, by pressing the string against the fretboard. A guitar has six strings, each tuned to different pitches by tightening each string individually. This is exactly how a string instrument like a guitar works. ![]() The higher the strings tension, the faster the waves that it produces, which creates a higher pitch. When plucked, that string vibrates creating a wave pattern. Picture a string pulled tight between two points. Modern day standard tuning is based on a standard of A = 440hz, which is to say the note with a frequency of 440 cycles per second would create an “A” pitch. Sound waves are measured by their frequency - the number of cycles each sound wave makes over time. But, understanding these fundamental ideas really helped me explore my playing and expand my appreciation of music. This may sound like nerdy scientific mumbo-jumbo, and you may wonder why you should care about the inner workings of sound when you could just focus on which keys to press on your instrument. After all, unorganized sounds are just meaningless noise, whereas music is created through creative organization and compilation of sound.Īs we will learn, the overtone series sets the stage for all the major components of modern music, from pitches, to chords, scales and even determines why a trumpet sounds different from a guitar. The set of resulting pitches form the basis for everything we do as jazz musicians.įundamentally, all western music, including jazz, is rooted in the overtone series. The overtone series is a natural phenomenon in which a single pitch produces multiple additional harmonic pitches through mathematical divisions. Faster waves produce higher pitches, while slower waves produce lower pitches. Those waves produce changes of pressure in the air, and our ears interpret those pressures as different pitches. In its most basic sense sound is made up of waves. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Vehicle owners should refer to their owner’s manuals before consulting these charts.

Plastic snapping, leather, and nylon straps with buckles come under the adjustable type.Īdjustable types of hat closure allow caps to be worn at multiple sizes by anyone. In a nutshell, closure types are divided into two categories, adjustable and not adjustable type.įitted caps are an example of the non-adjustable type. All one-size-fits-all caps and hats usually fit average head circumferences of 21.5 inches to 23 inches or M/L size. You might wonder what size range one-size-fits-all hast actually fit. As mentioned earlier, the type of hat closure type determines the size, fit and impacts the look of the cap when it’s worn. Whether it is a brim, crown, eyelets, or even the closure, every part of a hat has a purpose. The plastic buckles have a good impact strength, and you can easily adjust the size of the cap according to your preferences. These nylon straps with plastic buckle closure are also great to use! The nylon straps are resistant to wear and tear, oils, water and are tough. If you are sharing hats, it’s a good idea to wash them first. They can be shared between multiple people in a family. They also give you the flexibility of changing your cap fit for different situation or moods. They are designed with snaps, straps, or hooks and loops to adjust to multiple head sizes. Adjustable Hat ClosureĪdjustable hats are great and are widely popular among people for their adjustable fit. There are four types of nonadjustable hats: fitted, flexible fit baseball caps, caps with elastic closure, and non-adjustable nylon straps. They are a perfect choice for sports players, especially in soccer, baseball, golf, and tennis. ![]() Non-adjustable Hat ClosureĪs you might have guessed, non-adjustable hats are caps that do not have an adjustable closure since they are designed in a way to only fit a specific head size. Hat closure is divided into 2 major categories, non-adjustable type, and adjustable type. They help the cap to hold tight to your head without blowing off in the wind. They allow you to adjust the size of the cap, bigger or smaller, according to your head size. So, let talk closures! What is a Hat Closure?Ī hat closure can allow you to open or close a hat with snapping straps, leather straps, velcro straps, etc. Hat closures can enable some adjustment to size and definitely affect hat comfort. Like fingerprints, heads vary from person to person according to their height, weight, race, and many other factors. Whichever hat you end up choosing, size is the main key for everything. When selecting the best cap for you it’s easy to focus only on the color, material, design, but the type of closure and also impact how must you enjoy your hat and should also be considered. There is a huge variety and style of baseball caps and hats! When choosing your hat it helps to know about the different types of hat closures. ![]() Choosing the perfect cap can be very tricky. ![]() ![]() ![]() Star Wars BB8, BB-8 App-Enabled Droid Sphero Thrillville: Off the Rails BB-8 App-Enabled Droid, star wars, star Wars Episode VII, bb8, android png 1024x1024px 366.88KB.BB-8 Stormtrooper Sphero Star Wars Droid, forcess, orange, star Wars Episode VII, bbx2453px 3MB.C-3PO R2-D2 Anakin Skywalker Luke Skywalker Star Wars, star wars, star Wars Episode VII, r2d2, recreation png 1200x1500px 199.31KB.BB-8 Sphero Luke Skywalker Poe Dameron Stormtrooper, stormtrooper, star Wars Episode VII, war, r2dx1024px 497.65KB.BB-8 App-Enabled Droid Sphero Drawing, gestante, star Wars Episode VII, painting, bbx1000px 46.78KB.Star Wars R2-D2 and C3PO, R2-D2 C-3PO BB-8 Clone Wars Star Wars, star wars, star Wars Episode VII, poster, r2dx2160px 2.29MB.BB-8 App-Enabled Droid Sphero BB-8 App-Enabled Droid Star Wars, Sitar, star Wars Episode VII, orange, bbx1024px 410.63KB.R2-D2 C-3PO Astromechdroid BB-8, r2 d2, star Wars Episode VII, film, bb8 png 750x750px 407.34KB.Star Wars C3PO and BB8, C-3PO R2-D2 Anakin Skywalker Leia Organa Stormtrooper, Star Wars, star Wars Episode VII, metal, chewbacca png 2223x2474px 1.05MB. ![]() BB-8 Sphero Star Wars Droid R2-D2, bb, angle, star Wars Episode VII, bird png 600x850px 229.87KB.BB-8 R2-D2 Poe Dameron Star Wars, bb8 cartoon, star Wars Episode VII, rey, r2d2 png 800x800px 97.77KB.BB-8 Star Wars: The Clone Wars Star Wars Day The Force, Blikvanger, text, star Wars Episode VII, logo png 1000x722px 54.68KB.Star Wars BB-8 toy, BB-8 Sphero R2-D2 Robot Droid, Star Wars, star Wars Episode VII, orange, sports Equipment png 1200x1199px 254.54KB.BB-8 R2-D2 Luke Skywalker C-3PO Star Wars, star wars, star Wars Episode VII, poster, r2d2 png 710x1125px 241.25KB.R2-D2 C-3PO Leia Organa Han Solo Luke Skywalker, robots, star Wars Episode VII, robots, r2d2 png 908x1198px 1.19MB.BB-8 Thrillville: Off the Rails R2-D2 Sphero Droid, r2d2, star Wars Episode VII, sphere, film png 1024x1024px 377.81KB. ![]() |
