Cubase crossgrade sale8/14/2023 If you have to do commercial work before the next version of Nuendo releases, you have the crossgrade code ready to activate, though you lose the ‘free’ version upgrade if you activate Nuendo 11 before the grace period for the new version starts. However, you could buy and use Cubase Pro now under the educational restrictions, then wait to activate the crossgrade until the next version of Nuendo is released, saving yourself a Nuendo version upgrade charge. The current sale means there is almost no saving buying Cubase Pro EDU and crossgrading to Nuendo immediately. The full version of Nuendo is on sale at £504 (plus the cost of a USB eLicenser if you don’t have one). The Cubase Pro to Nuendo crossgrade is on sale at £205. ![]() Cubase Pro 11 EDU in the UK is £291 (plus the cost of a USB eLicenser if you don’t have one). now!), then wait to activate it until a new version of Nuendo has released. This means you likely can buy a Cubase Pro to Nuendo crossgrade when it is on offer (i.e. If Steinberg sticks with their current policy that you get the current version of a product on the day you activate a licence (not the day you purchased the licence), the crossgrade will not only switch you to Nuendo but update you to the latest version as well. One possible strategy would be to buy Cubase Pro EDU now, then crossgrade to Nuendo when the next version of Nuendo is released. Steinberg only offers EDU discount on full licences, never on upgrades to a larger product or version updates, and does not include EDU licences in their periodic sales. The upgrade to retail status removes the restrictions on EDU licences: they cannot be used for commercial work and are Not For Resale. All but one licence has subsequently been upgraded, becoming a retail licence in the process. Most of my Steinberg software was acquired when I was entitled to EDU pricing. I want to confirm that update wise Steinberg regards EDU versions as conventional versions, right? The upgrade from the last to the current Nuendo version is 200 €. When it comes to the full/retail version: The crossgrade from Cubase Pro to the current Nuendo version is 400 €. ![]() Should I invest in Cubase Pro EDU work a bit with it and then crossgrade to Nuendo (retail) when it is necessary? Or should I acquire Nuendo EDU? The price difference between the two isn’t huge that’s why I’m a bit torn So when I freelance I have to buy a full version. I’m specifically asking finance and legal wise: In a (very short) disclaimer Steinberg says that educational versions may not be used for commercial work. I’m fairly advanced when it comes to working with DAW’s, have used PT a long time, so I don’t need that much practice in Nuendo but could use Cubase at the moment for what I do.

Nashville incoming flights8/14/2023 ![]() "We're proud to be the only airline in this region offering nonstop services to Chicago - that was a major reason to transition service to Chicago. Those who attended the press conference were invited inside the jet to preview the aircraft's cabin area.Ĭhaifetz also noted that the Evansville airport does not offer flights to Chicago. "Last month, we had an on-time performance rate of almost 90%."Ĭhaifetz said the jets were originally built to hold 37 passengers but were downsized to 30 seats to provide more space. "Contour is one of the most punctual airlines in the country," he said. "When other airports are struggling to maintain service, the fact we're here today introducing what I think, and I hope everyone agrees, is a truly upgraded product relative to the EAS service that Owensboro has had in the past is attributable to (airport officials') efforts."Ĭontour will be flying a 30-passenger Embraer ERJ-135 regional jet to make the 45-minute in-air trip from Owensboro to Chicago.Īccording to Chaifetz, Contour is one of the fastest growing airlines in the country and the second largest airline in the EAS program in both number of passengers and communities served. Matt Chaifetz, Contour's CEO, said he has known Owensboro airport Director Tristan Durbin for a number of years, which helped in bringing the airline to the community. Instead Contour gave the board an option for Chicago flights, which it voted unanimously to accept and remove Charlotte as the EAS destination.

28 weeks later scarlet death8/13/2023 Instead, Schofield proposed that the interaction of sweet clover with the infecting fungal strains created a potent anticoagulant in the cows’ blood, causing them to bleed out. The Penicillium molds on their own were harmless. More specifically, he connected the disease to silage containing large amounts of moldy sweet clover. In fact, 12 years earlier in Canada, Frank Schofield, a veterinary pathologist working at the Ontario Veterinary College had concluded that the strange hemorrhaging illness correlated with wet summers, when unusually damp hay used as cattle feed became infected with fungal molds. Link was sympathetic, but he also recognized a scientific whodunit waiting to be solved by someone with his expertise. Carlson demanded to know why his prized bulls and cows were dying, and he wanted a solution. A veterinarian had recommended that the farmer consult experts at the University of Wisconsin’s Agricultural Experiment Station, and chance brought him late that Saturday afternoon to the lab of biochemist Karl Paul Link and his students, who were working after hours. In the back of his truck he had stashed a dead cow, a bucket of its unclotted blood, and a hundred pounds of moldy hay. Then, during a blustery Wisconsin snowstorm in February 1933, a frustrated farmer from Deer Park named Ed Carlson braved the 200-mile journey to the state capital, Madison. The disease wiped out entire herds, destroyed farms and rural livelihoods, and baffled veterinarians for a decade. ![]() Farmers watched in horror as their otherwise healthy cows suddenly became sick-often after routine procedures, such as dehorning-collapsing in pools of their own blood. In the early 1920s a strange and bloody illness slowly spread through cattle farms across Canada and the United States. Warfarin was discovered by researchers attempting to solve yet another medical mystery, this one affecting cattle. What he couldn’t imagine is that his brush with death would help save countless lives. EJH reasoned if it could kill rats, it could kill humans too. Warfarin had made its market debut in the early 1950s and almost instantly became a familiar sight in homes, businesses, schools, and places of worship across the United States. How had this man survived 500 milligrams of rat poison that would have killed a rat many times over and probably most other humans? This question would occupy medical researchers into the 21st century.Ĭourtesy of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, Archives (ID S00093)ĮJH’s poison of choice was a commercial rat bait known as warfarin, sold under the brand name d-CON. They published his curious case in medical journals, and EJH (as he was dubbed) became part of medical history. The recruit was despondent as he told his tale, but his doctors were intrigued. But two days later, as the pain became overwhelming, he realized (to his consternation) he was still very much alive. Then on April 2 a sudden sharp pain set in along his torso, and blood began to spurt from his nose. Doggedly, he swallowed the poison again that night and for the next four nights, to no avail. The next morning, to his shock, he woke up alive and well. ![]() Depressed by his future prospects and desperate to avoid deployment at any cost, he had taken a small amount of rat poison. When the young recruit was finally lucid, doctors pried the story out of him. ![]() ![]() After several hours doctors managed to stabilize him, but they couldn’t figure out what had caused the bleeding. As nurses tried to secure him to a gurney, his nose began to bleed profusely a flood of red spilled over his clothes. Doubled over with acute back and abdominal pain, he could barely walk. On April 4, 1951, a 22-year-old military inductee stumbled into a U.S.

Little black book movie8/13/2023 ![]() A narrator screams in the opening, "France, July 26! Anarchy! Misery! Murder! Arson! Fear!" Robert Cummings stars as D'Aubigny, an emissary of Lafayette operating undercover to overthrow Maximilian Robespierre, played by Richard Basehart as a sadistic monster with some entertaining dialogue. It's unquestionably film noir, even though the urban location here is Paris in the eighteenth century, the time of the French Revolution. The Black Book (1949), which was quickly retitled Reign of Terror, is surely one of the most stylized narrative films of the 1940s. In view of the poverty of the production, I think it would have been difficult to do better, and Richard Basehart made a remarkable impression." - Anthony Mann in a Cahiers du Cinema interview It's worth watching." - Robert Cummings in The Black Book "What this country needs is an elegant, slow death. When Fouché asks his name, he replies, "Napoléon Bonaparte." Later, a soldier remarks to Fouché that the art of being a Frenchman is knowing what comes next, but adds that he is neither a Frenchman nor a politician. D'Aubigny goes to Robespierre's secret torture chamber and rescues Madelon. ![]() After Robespierre challenges them to find another leader, he is shot in the mouth and taken to the guillotine. Although Robespierre claims that he has fought to give France back to the people, the Convention members turn against him and Barras denounces him. While D'Aubigny attempts to rescue Madelon, Robespierre demands that the Convention declare him sole and absolute dictator of France. At the Convention, as Barras is brought to trial, Tallien, one of his supporters, passes the book among the members of the Convention, who see their names inside it. Although D'Aubigny flees to safety, Madelon is captured and tortured by Robespierre and Saint-Just. D'Aubigny and Madelon then escape with the book and are pursued into the countryside by Saint-Just and his men, but find refuge on a farm. When D'Aubigny finds it and reads Fouché's name inside, Fouché attacks him, but D'Aubigny chokes him. D'Aubigny and Madelon manage to escape and D'Aubigny rushes to the bakery's back room, where he finds Fouché searching for the book. When Madelon impersonates Madam Duval and warmly greets D'Aubigny as her husband, Robespierre and Saint-Just are convinced by her performance until the real Madam Duval arrives. D'Aubigny suddenly realizes that Robespierre has had the book all along and will use it to reinforce his position at the Convention. Meanwhile, D'Aubigny visits Barras in prison and tells him that three members of his party have been killed and that the party is being divided. Later, Saint-Just tells Robespierre that Duval's wife will be visiting that day from Strasbourg. Madelon thinks that D'Aubigny has betrayed Barras and orders him shot, but relents when he promises to free Barras. However, Saint-Just is waiting nearby and takes Barras prisoner. Suddenly, Fouché's agents arrive and attempt to arrest Barras, but D'Aubigny claims that Barras is his prisoner and shows them his authority from Robespierre. Two men try to detain D'Aubigny, but Madelon appears suddenly and takes him to Barras, who says that he does not have the black book. Later, D'Aubigny goes to a local café and meets Robespierre's confidante, Saint-Just, who tells D'Aubigny that he does not believe that he is Duval. He gives D'Aubigny power over all police personnel and threatens him with death if he does not recover the book within twenty-four hours. Robespierre reveals that several members of his own committee are included on the list. Robespierre tells "Duval" that he has written a death list, the names of the enemies of France, in a small black book, but has misplaced it. After she leaves, police chief Fouché greets D'Aubigny, whom he believes to be Duval, and takes him to a bakery, which conceals Robespierre's secret headquarters and arsenal. When D'Aubigny lights a candle, he discovers that Madelon is a former lover. ![]() She is to be D'Aubigny's contact with Barras, who wants to ensure that Robespierre never becomes a dictator. A few minutes pass and a lovely woman named Madelon, who is working for Barras, arrives and, in the dark, makes contact with D'Aubigny, who she knows has replaced Duval. D'Aubigny finds Duval, stabs him to death and changes into his clothes. Meanwhile, Robespierre tells François Barras, a leader of the opposition party, to present a motion to the Convention that would grant him absolute power, but Barras refuses. D'Aubigny is to murder Duval, Robespierre's corrupt new public prosecutor from Strasbourg, whom Robespierre has never met, and take his place. In Austria in 1794, the exiled French general, the Marquis de Lafayette, sends his loyal emissary, Charles D'Aubigny, to Paris to stop the ruthless deputy of the National Convention, Maximilien Robespierre, from assuming dictatorial powers.

Eggscellent lv nevada8/13/2023 ![]() Some water savings are expected to come from a longstanding program that provides funding for leaving water in Lake Mead, the reservoir behind Hoover Dam outside Las Vegas.Īlready, the Gila River Indian Community and the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation in metropolitan Phoenix have agreed to cut back their water use in exchange for tens of millions of dollars. ![]() Much of the state’s Colorado River supply is delivered through a canal system to dozens of water users that include cities in metropolitan Phoenix and Tucson, Native American tribes, businesses and farms. ![]() “I would believe that part of the calculus here for those cities is: ‘Step up here, we do this, and we avoid maybe bigger mandatory cuts,'" said Tom Buschatzke, director of the Arizona Department of Water Resources. Water officials in the state declined to confirm the number and said discussions are underway on how cuts to other water-users would be shared. The latest proposal from the three states will affect eight cities that get water through the Central Arizona Project and farms in tribal areas, said Brenda Burman, the entity’s general manager.īased on commitments from Nevada and California, Arizona would accept 1.1 million acre-feet in additional cuts. Under the plan, the district would instead let the federal government buy that water.Īrizona has already endured two years of federally mandated water cuts tied to the level of Lake Mead. The district also typically pays a nearby farming district to fallow land in exchange for about 130,000 acre-feet of water a year. Metropolitan will turn to other sources of water and leave about 250,000 acre-feet in Lake Mead this year, said Bill Hasencamp, the district’s manager of Colorado River resources. The district is benefitting from a winter that battered the state with storms, leaving California awash with water for the first time in several years. That might affect dairy farmers, but farmers, their workforce and consumers wouldn’t see a major hit, he said.Īnother key recipient of river water is the Metropolitan Water District of California, which provides water to 19 million people in six counties, including Los Angeles. The district will work on a pilot program where farmers would turn off their water for 60 days on forage crops like alfalfa to save water during hot summer months, said JB Hamby, a district board member and chair of the Colorado River Board of California. The Imperial Irrigation District, which provides water to the crop-rich Imperial Valley in southeastern California, is the largest single recipient of the river's water. It aims to conserve an additional 1.5 million acre-feet by the end of 2024.Ĭalifornia is entitled to 4.4 million acre-feet of water per year, Arizona to 2.8 million acre-feet and Nevada to 300,000 acre-feet.Ĭalifornia has committed to conserving 1.6 million acre-feet of water under Monday's agreement - which is about half of the total. The plan comes after mandatory and voluntary cuts. The watershed deal broke a stalemate that could have swept the seven states that rely on the river into expensive and lengthy legal fights, though the amount of water offered falls short of what the federal government sought last June. West serves 40 million people with drinking water, as well as water for irrigation and hydropower.
