![]() It is three in the afternoon, and the August sun is burning hot. Attracted by the sound and the din, a crowd of villagers of both sexes in holiday attire run in from the avenue, while Tonio the fool looks down the road to the left and then, worried by the approaching crowd, lies down in front of the theatre. The sound of an out-of-tune trumpet is heard, alternating with the banging of a drum, together with laughter, gay shouts, urchins whistling and approaching voices. Behind the theatre there is a little wall. The right of the stage is almost completely taken up with a travelling theatre. ![]() Almost in front of the tree, on the road, is planted a rough pole from the top of which flies a flag such as is common at popular fairs. At the angle of the road, a large tree on broken ground. The scene is a crossroads in the country, at the entrance to the village. The mixing of different genres to create their own new thing has worked really well for PICTURESQUE, resulting in an enjoyable album that you will want to listen to indefinitely.ĭo You Feel O.K? is set for release April 24th via Rude Records/Equal Vision Records.In the costume of Taddeo in the play, coming through the curtainĭo not alarm yourselves at our sufferings Overall, Do You Feel O.K? is fully loaded with insanely catchy choruses and hooks, backed with fierce guitars and bass, and compelling drums and beats. You are able to truly feel the pain throughout this song, and the chorus, again, is so strong! This band conveys passion so well through all elements, from the heartfelt lyrics to the powerful drums from Jade Castello. This track starts off softly with an almost mystical sound, but this quickly transitions into a harder, more impactful sound. It tells the story of a man “taking stock and questioning what is to come next from life”, as the lyrics speak of “emotional despair and romantic despondency”. The track, Holding Me Down, is such an emotive piece, demonstrating perfectly the feelings that Hollis has said inspired the album. Their post-hardcore roots still shine through in the guitars from Dylan Forrester and Zach Williamson and bass from Jordan Greenway, which work incredibly well to create an immersive listening experience. Nearing the end of the song, Hollis displays his talent with an incredible high note which will ensure this track becomes a fan favourite.īy mixing rock and pop sounds with electro and hip-hop, PICTURESQUE definitely highlight themselves from other bands around at the moment, as every song on this album stands out on its own, but also works amazingly as a collective. The guitar and bass work great with the synth/electronic high notes during the chorus, adding to the memorable aspect of this song. The track, Crimes, leaves a lasting impression due to its use of vocals and rhythms as they work together to create a truly awesome beat during the chorus. This album makes a habit of including incredibly memorable choruses and hooks, leaving you singing them to yourself hours after actually having listened to them. This original element paired with the snappy chorus makes for a great song. What really makes this song memorable however, is the super cool synth breakdown and guitar solo. We then lead onto a once again impressive vocal display, encompassed within guitar and bass riffs which create depth and atmosphere. The next track, ATTN:, launches you straight into the action, by dropping into a groovy riff partnered with catchy drum beats. There are elements of many genres in this song (and the whole album), and it they are very skilfully mixed together. Band vocalist, Kyle Hollis, has said, “The first record was our take on 2009 post-hardcore, whereas this album is something new, and it’s a style of music I’ve not heard anyone else make.” The opening track, Necessary, really introduces the concept that the band is trying to convey, by mixing a steady electronic beat with impressive vocals from Hollis, then transitioning into deep guitar and bass riffs with a really cool hook and chorus. ![]() Having released their first album, Back To Beautiful, in 2017 and receiving a good reception, the band has gone on to tour with the likes of ESCAPE THE FATE, SILVERSTEIN and TONIGHT ALIVE. Originating from a post-hardcore scene, the five-piece set out to embrace musical tropes not usually associated with heavy music, and their new release, Do You Feel O.K?, definitely does this vision justice. ![]() Kentucky natives PICTURESQUE however, are joining the group of artists and bands who refuse to let a label define them, and have chosen to produce music that feels right, rather than checking boxes of genre conventions. They can restrict an artist or band to only produce a certain sound, as to make sure they fit the genre they have been allocated. Some say that the labels of genre are limiting. ![]() ![]() ![]() Getting that extra bit of detail in the highlights made such a huge visual impact overall. This was our first foray into HDR with this show, which was exciting, as it is well suited for the format. He is fastidious about sending stills each week, and the intended directive of each scene is clear long before it reaches my suite. Rourke, who has worked on every season of The Expanse, explains, “Jeremy likes to set scene looks on set so everyone becomes married to the look throughout editorial. I am very much looking forward to doing Season 5, which we are shooting now, in HDR with Joanne.” ![]() “Watching Season 4 come to life with such new depth, range and the dimension that HDR provides was like seeing our world with new eyes,” continues Benning. ![]() With Amazon as our new home, HDR was part of their delivery spec, so those tests we had done previously had prepared us for how to think in HDR. But Naren and I were very excited by those tests and hoped that one day we would go HDR. “We did test HDR grading a couple seasons ago with Joanne at Deluxe, but it was not mandated by the broadcaster at the time, so we didn’t move forward. “Moving into HDR for Season 4 of our show was something Naren and I have wanted to do for a couple of years,” says Benning. Further distinguishing Ilus from other environments, production chose to display scenes on or above Ilus in a 2.39 aspect ratio, while those featuring Earth and Mars remained in a 16:9 format. Deluxe Toronto senior colorist Joanne Rourke then worked with Benning, VFX supervisor Bret Culp, showrunner Naren Shankar and series regular Breck Eisner to develop looks that would convey the location’s uninviting and forlorn nature, keeping the overall look desaturated and removing color from the vegetation. In preparation for production, cinematographer Jeremy Benning, CSC, shot anamorphic test footage at a quarry that would serve as the filming stand-in for the season’s new alien planet, Ilus. Deluxe Toronto handled end-to-end post services, including online editorial, sound remixing and color grading. The fourth season of the sci-fi series The Expanse was finished in HDR for the first time streaming via Amazon Prime Video. ![]() ![]() ![]() *Don’t miss the complete printable recipe and video tutorial below.

Butter, heavy whipping cream, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, garlic, and seasonings come together in a matter of minutes for the most incredible white sauce that coats the cooked pasta. Alfredo Sauce: We used our favorite Alfredo Sauce recipe for this dish.Linguini is another great choice, or penne which is able to catch the sauce in its ridges. A long, flat noodle like Fettuccine is perfect here, providing more surface area for the sauce to cling to. Pasta: Pasta is cooked in salted water until al dente, which is the bed of this dish.We keep the seasonings simple with just salt, pepper, and our homemade Italian seasoning blend, since so much additional flavor comes from the cream sauce. Chicken: Chicken breasts are seasoned and pan seared in olive oil and butter until moist on the inside, with a golden crust on the outside.Trust me, your entire family will love it!

When it comes to sides for this dish, most Italian-style appetizers, sides and salads work. ![]() Make fresh pasta to go with the frozen Alfredo sauce. Then thaw it when you’re ready to serve and eat. If you need to make this recipe ahead of time you could freeze the Alfredo sauce separately from the pasta. For the best flavor and quality, it should be eaten right away. You can even add a little bit more cream to freshen it up a bit.Ĭan it be frozen? In my personal opinion, I wouldn’t freeze leftover fettuccine Alfredo. Make sure to stir it continuously to keep the sauce together. This will help prevent the sauce from separating. It’s a little tricky but it’s best to reheat it slowly over low heat. For best results and taste quality it can stay in the fridge for up to 5 days. How long does Alfredo last in the fridge? Place your fettuccine Alfredo pasta in an airtight container or covered bowl when you’re ready to store it in the fridge. Some good substitutions for heavy cream are milk, half ‘n half, greek yogurt, or cream cheese. How to make without cream? If you’re wanting a lighter version of fettuccine alfredo you can substitute the heavy cream. How to thin Alfredo sauce? You can always add a little pasta water or more heavy cream to thin the sauce. To make it more thick and cheesy, you can also add ½ – 1 cup shredded Parmesan or Mozzarella cheese before serving. How to thicken Alfredo sauce? We typically add a little bit more Parmesan cheese which does the trick, but you can also add flour. Garnish or sprinkle with fresh herbs (fresh Parsley, Thyme, etc) to make the dish look even more delicious. You can also mixed in cooked veggies (broccoli is our fav) or top with cooked chicken or shrimp if desired. After boiling, drain water and add to sauce. While you are making the sauce, cook up the fettuccine noodles according to package directions in a large pot. Bring this to a simmer and then add the Parmesan cheese. Let this cook for about a minute and then whisk in the whipping cream. The sauce is made by melting 2 tablespoons unsalted butter and then adding the minced garlic to a large skillet on LOW-MEDIUM heat. garlic pepper (with Parsley flakes) and saltĬOOK.To make this homemade Alfredo sauce recipe, you only need a few ingredients including: The good thing is both are delicious and both are winners with the family because they’re so yummy! Homemade Sauce What’s the difference between Alfredo Sauce and White Sauce (Bechamel)?īoth sauces are dairy-based, but White Sauce is thickened with a roux made with butter and flour while Alfredo Sauce uses heavy creamy and is thickened by reduction on the stovetop and not with a roux. Most pastas work well with this delicious white sauce, but apart from Fettuccine, you can also use Linguine or Penne Pastas. ![]() ![]() ![]() Do you think you can win against Laika?

![]() ![]() For example, say you have two defensive towers that are heavily guarded controlled on the map, and the enemy has none. These moments are usually good times to strike, but make sure you’re strategic about it. In the event of a checkmate, the AI will not take any actions and instead opt to build up mushroom men in whatever bases they have. Going off of tip #2, the enemy AI will actually wait for you to make a move sometimes. Upgraded defensive towers can really take a big chunk out of advancing armies! Be sure you pick a good place for them too. Defensive towers function just like regular bases you will need to station an ample amount of mushroom men to prevent them from being taken over. The computer AI has a tendency to react to every single move you make, and they will jump at the chance to take over these towers if you leave them unguarded for too long. Try to have at least one of these around, and make sure it’s heavily fortified. You will learn how to construct defensive towers out of bases a couple levels into the tutorial. Your enemy will be severely crippled if they cannot capture bases to produce more mushroom men. One of the key things to remember is to prevent your enemy from expanding. Send your mushroom men to attack neutral buildings closest to the enemy base. In a lot of cases the outcome of a level may ride on the first couple of seconds! Playing too reserved may eventually drive you to defeat. It’s usually a good idea to take the offensive than to play it safe.

Clipt (which I dare you to try saying out loud 10 times fast) launched last year as an experimental lab creation by the phone-maker OnePlus. That's where a crafty little app called Clipt comes into play. The real problem to be solved with the Android clipboard experience, if you ask me, is less about the experience of interacting with what you copy on Android and more about connecting that copying action to your other devices.Īfter all, particularly in the work world, nearly all of us hop between our phones and some manner of computer - right? And getting text or even images that you copy from one device to another is a reliably clunky and time-consuming process. ![]() The missing piece of your Android clipboard puzzle As we discussed in my newsletter on Friday, Android 13 will introduce a slew of genuinely useful clipboard-centric enhancements, all revolving around a new clipboard pop-up that appears anytime you copy something on your phone.īut you don't have to wait for Android 13 to get some significant new clipboard smarts on your favorite Android phone - and you don't have to stop with the device-specific improvements Google's about to give us, either.Īllow me to introduce you to your new Android clipboard BFF. ![]() įittingly enough, Google itself is turning its focus to the Android clipboard in the upcoming Android 13 release. And you'll enjoy those enhancements for months or maybe even years to come. ![]() Keep a pinch of your contemplation energy available, though, 'cause my goodness: A teensy bit of attention to your phone's clipboard now can enhance your Android-using experience in some pretty powerful ways. Unless you're an exceptionally quirky creature, your phone's clipboard probably isn't something you spend a ton of time contemplating.Īnd really, why would you? It's just an invisible layer that works quietly in the background and supports a relatively mundane system function. ![]() ![]() ![]() This notion is unacceptable, and the Cryptocat Project is moving forward on proposing solutions for Lebanese people on how to protect themselves against this sort of seizure, should it happen. We’d like to talk about today’s news in Lebanon concerning the Lebanese Internal Security Forces demanding access to Facebook passwords from the Minister of Telecommunications. It's particularly frustrating because people risk death or torture or long term imprisonment in some parts of the world, and they need strong crypto. People shouldn't have been waiting for something like DecryptoCat before they stopped using CryptoCat. Except the badguys are not going to enter your competition the badguys either already know how to break the crypto or they use all the publicly available entries as help. ![]() They even took the ultimate snakeoil step of running a competition to crack their software. They ignored the advice from many people. ![]() It's fine to release your code snippets as "proof of concept" or "demonstrations" so long as you give warnings that these are not to be used in real life.Ĭryptocat did not give those warnings. This is especially dangerous for crypto because these people might not understand the bugs they've created. They read a book or two, they read some source code, and then they implement their own version. See, for example, the random number generator bug in Debian. Smart people and many eyes make mistakes with crypto. With cryptographic software a small, subtle, hard to find bug could render the product pointless could make the cryptography trivially easy to crack. See any bug tracker for bugs which have been left for years. Most of those bugs can be left without too much impact on the users. The thing about the cryptocat thing is that there are questions about transparency that are valid (and I've seen your conversation on twitter and agree with some of your points), but I'm trying to avoid falling into that situation. That's not to say you're wrong, I think you have some valid points but in every other domain it appears there's a good enough level and when I at least encounter UK government crypto we're told it's the same. I see where you're coming from with it but to take your point I can pull keys out of a memory dump, who cares which process it comes from? In this case does it mean we should all wait for a perfect OS that scrubs memory on everything properly and encrypts swap? It's a matter of having something resilient enough for the use case not to matter. Don't make it harder to get found.Īs someone who's done a lot of non-crypto side channel stuff (particularly around signal modulation for exfil) I'm of the view that side channel stuff happens and it's not exclusive to crypto. ![]() Think of it like being a little kid lost in a shopping mall. How could anyone have any kind of grip on the safety of a system that fundamentally changes its crypto constructions so often?Ī lesson here: if you have to implement cryptography - and you and your users would be much better off if you didn't, and rather relied on a standard implementation like PGP - do one thing and stick with it. I'm not sure I've ever seen a system as popular as this so quickly take a tour of so much of cryptography. The difference between symmetric-keyed password-based encryption, RSA, Diffie-Hellman and ECC (presuming ECDH?) isn't minor it isn't a feature-level distinction.
