QUANTUM LEAP - “Atlantis” Episode 102 - Pictured: (l-r) Ernie Hudson as Magic, Nanrisa Lee as Jenn, Mason Alexander Park as Ian, Caitlin Bassett as Addison - (Photo by: Ron Batzdorff/NBC) Ian can attempt to break it, but they say it’s better suited for another department at the project. When they try to open the flash drive, it’s encrypted. Addison is having a crisis of faith She and Ben had met on the project. And she’s found a flash drive hidden in a bookshelf. They first assume it has been broken into, but Addison clarifies she did this after seeing Ben’s video message from the last episode. When Addison answers, Ian is shocked to find her apartment trashed. In 2022, Ian knocks on Ben and Addison’s apartment door, calling for her. As he starts to make his way down to mid-ship, he whispers for Addison. Ben asks for every leaper’s best place of refuge in such circumstances, the toilet. Stratton addresses him as David and asks if he’s okay. Whoever this man is, he is Asian like him. Meanwhile, Ben has found his reflection in the shuttle window above him and he is checking himself out. Their mission is to put one of the first pieces of NASA’s space station into orbit. Though Reynolds respects Stratton, he clearly sees himself as the wise sage, with her having much to learn. This is his last flight, one his wife didn’t want him to go on. Stratton has been training with Reynolds for ten years and he has been her mentor.

When the jet exploded, his wife, Peggy, went into premature labor and the baby was stillborn. ![]() In the original history, Tom was killed in a test flight of the X-3 jet. (Though it’s never addressed, this is Samantha Stratton, the daughter of Air Force test pilot, Tom Stratton, Sam’s first leap in the classic series. In the shuttle, the crew celebrates a successful launch as flight commander, Reynolds, promptly plays Frank Sinatra’s “Fly Me to the Moon” and Ben takes off his helmet to get his bearings.

As the rockets fire, he gives us what the ads have promised to be his new catchphrase, “Oh, shii-!” (Well, we get the “Oh…”, and the rest is up to our imagination and in the web ads. His first instinct is to call for Addison. We find Ben where we last saw him at the end of the premiere, in a space shuttle about to launch from earth. As he leaps between bodies with no memory of who he is, he still has one hope: That his next leap…takes him back…to the place…and people…he calls home.” Ben Song risked everything when he used the Quantum Leap accelerator to travel back in time.

March 1946: Churchill's Iron Curtain Speechĭuring a speech at Fulton, Missouri, on March 5, 1946, visiting British Prime Minister Winston Churchill proclaimed that Europe was divided by an "Iron Curtain" as the nations of Eastern Europe fell increasingly under Soviet control. Kennan's articulations of the policy of containment had a major influence on American foreign policy toward the Soviet Union. Kennan published a public version of this argument in the July 1947 issue of the journal Foreign Affairs. Kennan argued that the United States should lead the West in "containing" the Soviets by exerting counterforce at various geographical and political points of conflict. Kennan argued that the United States would never be able to cooperate successfully with the Soviets, because they saw the West as an enemy and would engage in a protracted battle to limit Western power and increase Soviet domination. ![]() Kennan, the Chargé d'Affaires at the Moscow Embassy, sent a long telegram to the Department of State detailing his concerns about Soviet expansionism. ![]() The United States and Britain considered this an abrogation of agreements made at the Yalta Conference.įebruary 1946: George Kennan's Long Telegram and the Policy of Containment These included Yugoslavia (November 1945) Albania (January 1946) and Bulgaria (December 1946).

In 2023, it was stated in Men's Health Magazine that the main reason why runners and other people like Hoka's so much is for their "combination of high comfort and lightweight materials". Hoka was purchased on Apby Deckers Brands, the parent company for UGG, Teva and other footwear brands. ![]() The brand's original, highest-cushion models are now accompanied in the Hoka lineup by lighter-weight shoes that retain much of the brand's signature cushion, and even lightweight training and racing shoes and track spikes. The shoes were initially embraced by ultramarathon runners due to their enhanced cushion and inherent stability however, they quickly gained popularity among other runners for offering maximum cushion and minimal weight. The shoes are named after the Māori language phrase loosely meaning "fly over the earth". The company was founded by Nicolas Mermoud and Jean-Luc Diard, former Salomon employees, in 2009, when they sought to design a shoe that allowed them to run downhill faster, and created a model with an oversized outsole that had more cushion than other running shoes at the time. ![]() Hoka first gained attention in the running industry by producing shoes with oversized outsoles, dubbed "maximalist" shoes, in contrast to the minimalist shoe trend that was gaining popularity at the time. It was founded in 2009 in Annecy, France, and has been based in Richmond, California before it was acquired by Deckers Brands in 2013. Hoka One One (stylized as HOKA) is a sportswear company that designs and markets running shoes. Unfortunately very few of our current genre of acoustic tests have had this kind of introspection." - Geddes It is the perceived sound quality that matters not the measured quality – unless that measurement has been scaled and correlated to subjective perception through valid psychoacoustic tests. "Blind reliance on measurements can be misleading ‐ one needs to tie those measurements back to subjective perception. The room response gives a picture of the steady state SPL, where sound generation and sound dissipation in the room have reached their equilibrium." -Linkwitz ![]() The resulting curves must not be taken as a 1:1 representation of what is heard as loudness at different frequencies. are welcome." The room response must be averaged to recognize trends in the summation of direct and reflected signals at the microphone. You get to decide which side of me you want to believe.Īs always, questions, comments, recommendations, etc. Subjectively, with some EQ it can be made to sound good. Either I was not playing loud enough or that the tone was getting added to other parts of the music and it was not as obvious as it was in Uni-fi 2.0.Īnyway, I think technically the ELAC Uni-fi Reference UCR52 is a failure and I can't recommend it. On the resonance, I could not get a clear case of it showing up. This is super important in home theater applications were the center speaker carries most of the burden as it has to show all that is seen on screen. Dual woofers give it high SPL playback ability which is an effective way to get on my good side. Thankfully or not, in a battle of subjectivity vs objectivity, with a bit of EQ it performs a lot better than it should. Do they only play at low and modest levels and don't hear such things? If so, what is up with the uneven frequency response? Is this all tuned by ear? Why is it so uneven anyway? Was this pushed out the door before being finished? Lot of questions. What were they thinking? How could they produce such a technically flawed speaker? When I can hear a resonance with hearing protection in a simple log sweep, surely they could too. I know the word "reference" has been bastardized in audio to almost mean nothing but still, I expected more, far more from Elac and Andrew Jones. ![]() Vocals came forward now which is what you want in a center speaker. Wow, so much muddier and a bit tubbier without EQ. ![]() This so called spinorama shows us just about everything we need to know about the speaker with respect to tonality and some flaws:Īt first, the difference was subtle but then I listened for 15 minutes and then turned off the EQ. Grill was not used.Īcoustic measurements can be grouped in a way that can be perceptually analyzed to determine how good a speaker is and how it can be used in a room. Reference axis is approximately the center of the tweeter. I performed over 1000 measurement which resulted in error rate of about 1%. Both of these factors enable testing in ordinary rooms yet results that can be more accurate than an anechoic chamber. Using computational acoustics, far-field response is computed and that is what I present. It also measures the speaker at close distance ("near-field") which sharply reduces the impact of room noise. This is a robotic measurement system that analyzes the speaker all around and is able (using advanced mathematics and dual scan) to subtract room reflections (so where I measure it doesn't matter). Measurements that you are about to see were performed using the Klippel Near-field Scanner (NFS). 8/23/2023 0 Comments 48 thermador range![]() Subsequently, Theremin granted commercial production rights to RCA.Īlthough the RCA Thereminvox (released immediately following the Stock Market Crash of 1929) was not a commercial success, it fascinated audiences in America and abroad. After a lengthy tour of Europe, during which time he demonstrated his invention to packed houses, Theremin moved to the United States, where he patented his invention in 1928. The instrument was invented in October 1919 by the Russian physicist Lev Sergeyevich Termen, known in the West as Leon Theremin. The theremin was the product of Soviet government-sponsored research into proximity sensors. The theremin is also used in concert music (especially avant-garde and 20th- and 21st-century new music) and in popular music genres such as rock.Īlexandra Stepanoff playing the theremin on NBC Radio, 1930 History The theremin has been used in movie soundtracks such as Miklós Rózsa's Spellbound and The Lost Weekend, Bernard Herrmann's The Day the Earth Stood Still, and Justin Hurwitz's First Man as well as in theme songs for television shows such as the ITV drama Midsomer Murders and the Disney+ series Loki, the latter composed by Natalie Holt. The sound of the instrument is often associated with eerie situations. The electric signals from the theremin are amplified and sent to a loudspeaker. These antennas capacitively sense the relative position of the hands and control oscillators for frequency with one hand, and amplitude ( volume) with the other. Each antennae forms one half of a capacitor with each of the thereminist's hands as the other half of the capacitor. The instrument's controlling section usually consists of two metal antennas which function not as radio antennas but rather as position sensors. It is named after its inventor, Leon Theremin, who patented the device in 1928. The theremin ( / ˈ θ ɛr əm ɪ n/ originally known as the ætherphone/ etherphone, thereminophone or termenvox/ thereminvox) is an electronic musical instrument controlled without physical contact by the performer (who is known as a thereminist). ![]() Problems playing this file?

Configuration settingsĪnother important section is the “Options” screen. There are two additional tools, namely “Quick Rename Music Files” and “Quick Rename File Tags” both supposed to scan a specific folder and to rename files in just a few clicks. Once you specify a folder to scan, Duplicate Music Files Finder completes the process in just a few seconds, offering you an option to select and remove some of the duplicates. In just a few words, there are multiple methods to search for duplicates, as follows: file name (exact matches only), file size, CRC matches or advanced file matching, which is a more complicated method that needs further customization.

As Mike is suggesting above you need:: for i,thisPic in enumerate(PicList):ītImage(thisPic) #not PicListīut maybe you need to go back to basics so that you actually use the trial handler to handle your trials -)Ĭreate a single list of dictionaries where one dictionary represents one trial, and then run through those in order (tell the TrialHandler to use the list 'sequential' rather than 'random'). The reason for your problem labelled is that you set the image to PicList which never changes. you could use an enumerator for this loop: for i, picture in enumerate(Piclist) rt_1, rt_2, …, rt_6 so they each appear in a separate column. If you want to record multiple RTs per trial, you will need to give them unique names, e.g. Also, you only get one line per trial in the data output. If you want to save one per image, you need to indent these lines again. (D) Re the RTs, you are saving this only once per trial (check the indentation). I'm guessing that you want to update what picture is being shown? In that case, then you need to be doing the tImage(…) line within this loop, not above, where you will always be drawing a fixed picture as that is the only one that gets set on each trial. This isn't the same thing as 'Pictures' defined in the loop above. And anyway, it isn't clear what 'pictures' refers to.
