Gallant finds himself trapped in a dark room, only illuminated by the occasional glowing of a few surrounding lights. Just as powerful as the track – in an equally minimalistic way – is the song’s music video. Raw, transparent, and introspective, “Weight in Gold” is a gem to be treasured. An aching can be felt in the listener’s very bones as the song soars into its emotional apex, paralleled by Gallant’s howling upper register. Gallant has a knack for the “less is more” mantra as he finds a way to electrify his audience with each of his ever so brief verses. ![]() I’m pulling my weight in gold Call me anxious, call me broke But I can’t lift this on my own Gallant © 2014 ![]() I never thought I was bold enough You pushed me further but I can’t lift this on my own.” While Gallant demonstrates his enormous range and his ability to dip effortlessly from a belting falsetto to a hushed croon, his poignant lyricism in the second verse tears at the listener’s heartstrings. He longingly wails, “I’m pulling my weight in gold. The song is an unrestrained cry for help. He immediately slides into the chorus, accompanied by effervescent synthesizers and gospel-tinged vocals in the background. In come Gallant’s breathy falsettos as he deliberately emphasizes the weight of each lyric in the first verse. The tactfully lethargic beat steadily opens the track as riffs from a soulful blues guitar crackle through the intimate silence. Contemporary R&B thrives on the themes of love, sex, and partying, whereas Gallant’s craft is in his powerful hook that takes on a more yearning theme. Boasting a vocal capability reminiscent of a Sam Smith/Usher superhuman, there’s a quality lingering in his style that leaves him just outside the traditional realm of the R&B genre. Los Angeles-based crooner Christopher Gallant – known to his fans as Gallant – dazzles the alt-R&B scene with his new single, “Weight in Gold,” released earlier this year. ![]()

![]() Other players this week found that even when a more common word was used - 'shake' - they still had problems, finding that even with four correct letters in the right spot there were too many possibilities for the correct answer. Recently, fans have been complaining that has become 'too difficult' since the US newspaper took over. Some of the criticisms facing the game this week was that answers like 'caulk' and 'agora' were too niche for most players. Instead of a cop-who-just-wants-to-do-his-job.Wordle lovers have slammed the New York Times again over today's answer - with some saying the word 'doesn't exist' and that the it is 'just making up words now'. I am quite happy my country got added in Year 1, because if it was currently instead of old cop that lost an eye and reformed youth now working as policewoman, we would have an ancient shamam who had an spiritual experience after getting injured, learned the ancients way of his people to then re-apply them to his training and serve as voice of wisdom and mysticism. This game is just like 2017 version of The mummy, currently is pure marketing without content made to generate money using previous incarnation work. They are not people who were called in because they are competent and are professionals, they are obvious example os simply something made to sell. Is about heroes who are superhuman who no longer represent their country and instead are individual characters with overly dramatic pasts of lately who are athletes in this game we call siege. The game is now about mix of representation of CTUs with different specialty in training scenarios. Explain to me why wamai having super lungs and Oryx having abnormal upper muscular body strenght with a misterious past is someone you want in your team. ![]() Feel free to prove me wrong, explain why making a game about CTUs be about esports is for the lore as some e-sports in game. Why should i waste my time when it's pretty clear UBISOFT DOESN'T CARE. That's literally a shift in direction in many ways, both relating to design (hero/athletes individuals vs CTUs as a uniform unit) and gameplay (ops must be about meta games and appeasing proleague) Once again, game is now fully about esports you have direct quotes of the devs saying they dropped anything related to terrorism just to make the characters be training for their invitational sports. ![]() The biggest problems lies with the Rainbow Six and Tom Clancy tag this game has, overwatch is a hero shooter with cartoony designs, i have no problem with overwatch because it's something new and it was meant to be like that, rainbow six was not be about this e-sports, look i can understand focusing a game on multiplayer and just having a throwawy training plot, but you keep it to being about professional CTUs with a semi-realistic representation (as far as i am aware there was no woman on the JTF simply because none passed the exams, yet you don't hear me ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about frost design). I honestly expect that even if you care it won't change a thing and i am already tired of wasting my breath. If you feel like i actually need to explain my issues when looking at those designs, i will do so, but it will be the fifth time i will be explaining everything only to fall into deaf years, the developers don't care, the higher ups don't care. Take a look at the GIGN french base ops and then take a look at the GROM polish ops. Seriously look at the british SAS ops from the base game, then look at wamai and kali. None got approved, except a quick doodle of swimming gear that wasn't even meant to be there, director pointed out "That one" and so they stuck with super aqualad that can breath underwater wamai because the whim of director wanting Heroes not CTUs, it's kinda disrespectful. We have a lot of dialogue going on about what we don't like about these operators and how the feel about the current designs, but I'm also interested in what people would change in order to make these operators feel a little more realistic? Well if i could find the full reveal panels vod on twich i would start to point out issues and contradictions on design, let's take wamai for example, artist did research on the kenian army, their uniform, weapons and overall equipament, made multiple designs based on that.

If you want to focus more on how you can use it for other types of business purposes, check out the article about Google News scraping. In general, data scraping can be helpful in various ways. There are many advantages of Reddit scraping that are sure to bring you profit one way or another. How Can Reddit Data Extraction Be An Advantage? Scraping process collects enormous amounts of data, such as extracting currency prices, but for the sake of this article, let’s focus on how you can use web scraping for Reddit. Which has practically limitless uses when it comes to data acquisition. However, with over a million active subreddits, it would be impossible to manually go through each one and analyze the data. It helps business owners estimate how many people would buy their product. This way, business owners can clearly understand whether people like their products or services or not. With that in mind, it would be beneficial for businesses and marketing research individuals to understand the current trends within these subreddits to serve their products or services better. You can meet thousands of people in the same category as long as it interests you. While other social media platforms have mixed-up discussion topics, Reddit’s feature enables you to dive into whatever type of category you’re interested. Reddit has been based on subreddits mostly.ĭifferent types of communities exist on the platform for people to choose whatever kind of category they’re interested in. How Is Reddit Different From Other Social Media Platforms? ![]() This article will discuss the benefits and uses of Reddit data extraction.Īs well as how obtaining community trends can be helpful for your business. It will give you a better understanding of how you can organize data and what pieces of information are available there. To familiarize yourself with the extracted information, I suggest you create a Reddit account and explore the platform. With several community categories, you can participate in whatever interests you. With the help of the texts, links, images, and videos, everyone can vote down any topic they like. Reddit is a widely established social media platform that stands for its name, “I read it,” where people from all over the world voice their opinions on a specific topic. When it comes to scraping, Reddit data has its benefits along with the trends of its communities. Reddit scraping generally is extracting the required data from this social network for business purposes. ![]() ![]() Norman, Oklahoma: University of Oklahoma Press, 2006.ĭick, Wesley Arden. Big Dams of the New Deal Era: A Confluence of Engineering and Politics. But large power dams were also contested spaces that raised a number of thorny questions: Who should benefit from federally-built power plants? Should public agencies or private energy companies sell the power and determine rates? How would dramatically transformed river systems accommodate a multitude of legal claims to the river’s water and fisheries? Were dams more environmentally destructive than they were economically productive? Many of these questions remain with us.īillington, David P. Mid-century Americans believed them so successful that hydropower dams formed a basis for the country’s postwar foreign policy of economic development. Building regional-scale power dams exhibited an unparalleled engineering aptitude that produced rapid economic growth. Most Americans lauded the large-scale environmental transformations necessary to harness the power of rivers. Collectively, they helped complete the West’s transformation into an agricultural and industrial powerhouse. Many of these dams, exemplified by the 710-foot-high Glen Canyon Dam, were enormous. They transformed each of these river systems into a staircase of energy-generating reservoirs. Between 19, the Reclamation Bureau and Army Corps of Engineers built more than 150 dams on the Columbia, Missouri, and Colorado River basins. Over the postwar decades, the use of public works as a mode of economic stimulus dramatically expanded. ![]() ![]() They powered booming industrial growth for wartime manufacturing that permanently reorganized regional economies around energy-intensive industries such as aluminum, aircraft production, and the finished electrical appliances that fueled new demands for residential power. These and other Depression-era dams produced immense energy in search of markets just in time for World War II. Grand Coulee alone could generate 2,253 megawatts of power, roughly equivalent to the entire Tennessee Valley Authority. On the Columbia River basin, two major dams-Bonneville and Grand Coulee-brought dreams of economic wealth to the little developed Pacific Northwest. The Central Valley Project in California, which rearranged the state’s hydraulic system, dwarfed the Hoover Dam. In the 1930s, emergency funds brought multiple large-scale dam projects to realization. It was the world’s first “high dam,” made possible by an interstate agreement, federal involvement through the Reclamation Bureau, and Southern California’s energy market. Approved in 1928 but built during the early years of the Great Depression, Hoover Dam linked job creation and economic growth through public works, making it a model for further federal involvement in regional-scale multipurpose dam projects. The awesome scale of Hoover Dam captivated contemporaries: double the volume of any prior dam, Hoover held back the world’s largest artificial lake (Lake Mead) and increased, at a single site, the hydropower supply of the American West by nearly fifty percent. Particularly in the American West, hydropower came to underwrite the large-scale multipurpose dam projects that drove regional growth. Selling the potential energy held in a large reservoir could help these large-scale water management projects pay for themselves. Over the first third of the twentieth century, planners began designing dams that combined their hydropower function with other societal goals, such as navigation, flood control, irrigation, and urban water supply. Progressives promoted centralized federal dams as a means to establish publicly-owned power and to electrify rural areas, making dams prominent objects of antimonopoly politics and social reform.īut hydropower was also an engine of developmental politics. Power dams offered cheap, pollution-free, and renewable energy sources. Hydroelectric power, or “white coal,” offered an alternative to fossil fuel-powered electric energy that, for progressive-age Americans, promised social and environmental benefits. Shortly after the turn of the twentieth century, a combination of large dams, powerful turbines, and high-tension transmission lines enabled electrical utilities to harness enormous energy from running water and to distribute power more than a hundred miles from electric generators. ![]() Hoover, however, was a culmination of larger technological and political changes. Symbolically, the era commenced with Hoover Dam’s dedication in 1935. The era of large-scale hydroelectric dam building spanned roughly four decades, from the 1930s through the 1960s. ![]() ![]() ![]() Instead we see markings that show “Mercedes-Benz300ALR” which is another completely different model that Tag Heuer made. This is a conflict that would not happen on a real Tag Heuer.Ģ, Looking then to the case back we do not see the sapphire crystal glass revealing the inside workings of the watch like we should see with a CAL 1887. On this faux-watch the dial says “Quartz” meaning it is a battery operated movement. In the world of Tag Heuer the word calibre is a designation for an automatic or self-winding watch movement. The abbreviation CAL means “Calibre” for Tag Heuer. The front of the watch portrays it as a Tag Heuer Carrera CAL 1887 Chronograph. Then looking back at the front there are significant problems:ġ. In this encounter with a fake, the front of the watch did not look bad, at first, but the case back did. Let’s review a sample of some Tag Heuer counterfeit watches that we have encountered in recent months and examine some errors and inconsistencies that reveal them as fakes. Like the serial number, the model number of the watch should be clearly printed on the official Tag Heuer paperwork and these numbers must match. A different looking Tag Heuer will have a different model number. It is unique to the specific design of the watch and should be the same for every Tag Heuer that has the same appearance. It should match the serial number found on the official paperwork. The unique serial number has a purpose and it is specific to that watch. If these numbers are missing you can be suspicious of the rest of the watch. The watch serial number and the model number can be readily seen on each and every one. The counterfeiters are busy again trying to defraud the Tag Heuer customer, but now at a higher level.Ī fundamental product detail to know is that Tag Heuer engraves important identification numbers onto the case back of every watch that they sell. Their prices have gradually gone up and they now sell in a range that can exceed $5,000. ![]() Within the last 15 years Tag Heuer has been making their watches with an increased attention to quality. These $500 fakes were no more than dead weight on the wrist and a rip-off at any price. Through these years the fakes have had prices near $500, a sum that while being too low was somehow believable and within easy reach of the unknowing customer. These prices also made the brand vulnerable to counterfeiters. These fair prices helped make Tag Heuer popular. Over the past few decades average prices for Tag Heuer watches ranged from $1,500 to $5,000 which were quite reasonable when compared to other brands in the luxury watch marketplace.
