Love and other detours1/7/2024 Every day, there was a two-hour walk through the neighbourhood forest, with occasional detours to the nearby park. At the beginning of COVID-19, when her two young girls were at home full time while she and her husband were juggling work, their afternoon routine quickly moved outside. The score, also by Pivio and De Scalzi, further complements the material and ups the tension whenever necessary.Outdoor time has always been a priority for Deborah Bakker and her family, and even more so during the pandemic. The three women responsible for the film’s overall look - director of photography Francesca Amitrano, production designer Noemi Marchica and costume designer Daniela Salernitano - all do solid work, even if Amitrano’s color correction job is very uneven. For his part, Buccirosso manages the difficult feat of making Don Vincenzo seem both powerful and pathetic. The reason audiences will still believe in their love story is because Morelli can pull off cool nonchalance like no one’s business when he’s not singing, and the actor playing the younger version of the character in some flashbacks has the kind of guileless innocence that audiences just know must still be buried somewhere deep inside the hardened Ciro. The contrast with Raiz, a born entertainer and his frequent onscreen partner, just highlights the problem. before, looks a tad uncomfortable when he’s required to sing. In terms of the male leads, Morelli, who looks like the Italian cousin of Armie Hammer and who has worked with the Manetti Bros. But Gerini’s Donna Maria here fails to comprehend the dead language whenever her Latin adage-spouting lawyer turns up. There’s also a hilarious in-joke that alludes to Gerini’s turn in Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ, in which, as Pontius Pilate’s wife, she spoke Latin. In the acting department, besides Rossi, Gerini is the standout as the aggrieved widow, going full-out over-the-top in a performance that knows this is explicitly not a film (or TV series) like the uber-naturalistic Gomorrah. Since these characters otherwise don’t have any personalities that might disprove what the joke is insinuating, this is a problem. But there are also a couple of moments in which foreigners become the butt of a joke, scoring easy laughs with what is essentially racism packaged as humor. The Neapolitans are known for their colorful cursing, and some of it is used to humorous effect here, including by both Don Vincenzo and Donna Maria. What to think of a passage like: “What’s in a name like Strozzolone/Afraid for his life and home/Makes him feel so alone”? Indeed, the film would have benefitted from dropping these altogether and keeping the action confined to the Neapolitan characters in Naples. And while the Neapolitan words to the songs are frequently clever and/or beautiful, especially in their use of slant rhymes, the English-language lyrics, co-written by Mark Hanna, are also nothing to write home about. The tourists are never seen before or after their single sequence so they don’t add anything to the main story, while the New York subplot is a painful interlude with bad English-language dialogue. There are two English-language songs, for example, one sung by a group of tourists who get robbed in the “Gomorrah ’hood,” which they - supposedly ironically - praise as the “ultimate touristic experience,” and the other in New York, where family members of the rivaling factions live. Both songs also benefit from smart staging, placing the actors in the thick of the action.īut there are a few too many detours that aren’t really necessary and end up slowing down especially the second half of the film. These songs go right to the heart of the material and, since Rossi is as good a singer as she is an actress, these tunes really pop. She’s handcuffed to Ciro, who literally mows down one bad guy after the other while she belts out a song about how he avoids his feelings like he avoid bullets. The film’s other musical highlight, an original song called “Bang Bang,” was written by Pivio and Aldo de Scalzi and is also sung by Fatima. Choosing Fatima over Vincenzo and a life of riches, however, comes at a price, and the rest of the film Ciro has to fight off Vincenzo’s small army of allies, from his former buddy Rosario to various other unsavory-looking types, who all want to avenge their (now supposedly dead) boss.Īs the title suggests, this is, at its heart, a love story set against the backdrop of (organized) crime. There’s only a tiny inconvenience: Fatima and Ciro, who has come to kill her, used to be childhood sweethearts, as revealed in the film’s first show-stopper, a reworking of the song “ Flashdance… What a Feeling” in Neapolitan, which is sung by Fatima and which reveals their shared backstory, cutesy flashbacks and all (the original music of this song was written by Italian Giorgio Moroder and the new lyrics are by the film’s songwriter, Alessandro Nelson Garofalo aka Nelson).

This Blog is mainly dedicated to Amateur Radio (Ham radio) and contains external articles and personal esperiences.In the figure, a converging lens $\left(f_$ of the image produced by the second lens. IT System Engineer, recently started having fun with morse code and Raspberry Pi Licensed Amateur Radio operator in 1996 as IW5EDI, active member of ARI Firenze and ARRLĬlass 1970, married with two childrens, love experimenting and antenna home-brewing. Do not go below 18 feet though, because your antenna will start losing its radiation pattern (it will turn into an inefficient antenna).Īrticle by Scott originally available at Related Posts via Taxonomies Now if you wanted a high angle of radiation for strong contacts to close DX stations (500-1000) miles, you can set your antenna about 20 – 36 feet about the ground. Conversely, if you live in a valley where the surrounding landscape is elevated around your antenna, you must go as high as possible (I know that is obvious, but you can’t think if your antenna is 70 foot up in the air you are getting a low angle of radiation – your antenna “knows” its low compared to the surrounding landscape). If you live on a mountain top, or your home is elevated above the surrounding landscape, you can use the lowest minimum height (36 – 40 feet) because the lower ground around the antenna fools the antenna into thinking its higher and makes a low angle of radiation. Its best to get it up around 60 – 70 feet. What is “high” and what is “low” for 27MHz? Generally for a low angle, you want to get your antenna over 1 Wavelength from the ground (36 feet). Quads have a lower angle of radiation than Yagi’s when mounted at the same height also. Verticals are great DX antennas for this reason (to make your vertical antenna an even better DX antenna read the “Earth Ground” section). Actually, vertical antennas have lower angles of radiation than beams when mounted at the same height above ground. Do these antennas have the same angle of radiation? No, they do not. But, lets say we have a 4 element beam at 40 feet and a 1/2 vertical at 40 feet also. When we say that antenna height determines angle of radiation, this is a generalization. Note: The angles of incidence and reflection are always measured from the normal. Technically, at this high of an angle you signal would be attenuated too much to talk after about 4 hops, so your signal would never make it as far as this figure shows! The angle between the reflected ray and the normal is known as the angle of reflection (r). In Specular reflection, the reflected light field is preserved in certain ways which allow them to be focused to an image, although left-rght inverted. You can see, the first hop is much shorter resulting in stronger signals to closer stations (500-1000 miles). Answer (1 of 4): Diffuse reflection of light is the opposite of Specular (mirror) reflection. Figure 2 shows how a low angle of radiation takes a lot less hops to make it to a DX station as opposed to a high angle of radiation (figure 3).įigure 3 – The high angle travel less distance each hop. So, if you are trying to talk to very very distant stations (other side of the earth), low angle of radiation is very very important. For every hop a your signal it has to take, the more its strength is reduced. Secondly, a lower angle of radiation strikes the ionosphere (the part of the atmosphere that your signal bounces off when you are talking “skip” (DX)) at a lower angle, and thus is able to “skip” to a DX station with less hops. If you concentrate your signal at a lower angle, it travels farther on the ground before it finally bends (the earth actually curves away from the signal) away from the earth. One, low angle of radiation is great for long distant groundwave talking. Lower angles of radiation are better for two things. Why is this angle of radiation important? Simple. Quite simply, the higher then antenna is, the lower the angle of radiation. To get this angle of radiation you will need to have your antenna from about 70 ft – 25 ft, respectively. The shaded area shows the most useful angles (10 – 20 degrees). This figure shows a vertical antenna, but the concept is the same for all types of antennas.

Macos get file path1/7/2024 If you absolutely need to know what operating system you’re on, the IsWindows, IsLinux, and IsMacOS variables work great. You should use these sparingly, and instead use capability checks (see above). PowerShell 6 introduces three global variables that you can use to check which platform you’re on. Use “IsWindows”, “IsLinux”, and “IsMacOS” Variables Sparingly When you check for functionality instead of versions, your code will work in more places. This is called a capability check and is the preferred pattern for supporting different ways of doing things across versions and operating systems. This property exists on the exception objects thrown by Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core. Notice that instead of checking what version of PowerShell we’re on to know if the ErrorDetails contains the error’s response body, we instead check for the existence of the Response property on the thrown exception. For example, 'ParentPath' -f $uri,$errorDetails) If for some reason you can’t use Join-Path to create a path or our strategy above, instead of hard-coding the directory separator character, use the ::DirectorySeparatorChar property to get the correct separator for the current operating system. Use “::DirectorySeparatorChar” When You Can’t Use “Join-Path” This way we don’t have to use regular expressions. characters to the parent/current item name, respectively (line 8). The GetFullPath method on the IO.Path object replacing.Join-Path normalizing our directory separators (line 7) and.$archivePath = ::GetFullPath($archivePath) $archivePath = Join-Path -Path $archivePath -ChildPath '.' $archivePath = Join-Path -Path (Get-Location).Path -ChildPath $archivePath Here’s how we got our paths normalized: # If the user didn't give us an absolute path, Normally, we would use Resolve-Path to get the full path to the file, which normalizes the directory separator, but in this situation, the path may be to a file the user wants us to create and Resolve-Path requires that the path exists. In one situation, our module took in a path from the user via a configuration file. Returns /usr/bin/dotnet on Linux/MacOS and \usr\bin\dotnet on Windows. Not only does it use the correct directory separator, but it converts directory separators to the directory separator for the current platform.įor example, Join-Path -Path '\usr\bin' -ChildPath 'dotnet' That path won’t work on Linux or MacOS because their file systems see the \ character as an escape character, not a directory separator. Never, ever put paths together with strings, e.g. Always Use “Join-Path” to Create Path Strings When the Path Originates in Your Code Since environment variable names are case-insensitive on Windows, you should prefer the case from Linux/MacOS. Would return nothing on MacOS or Linux, because the path environment variable is PATH on those platforms. Use the Same Case When Reading/Setting Environment VariablesĮnvironment variable names are case-sensitive on MacOS and Linux, regardless of how you access them. The Environment class also has neat properties like Is64BitProcess, Is64BitOperatingSystem, and UserInteractive, which aren’t exposed in the env: drive. They return the correct values across operating systems. Instead of using environment variables like $env:USERNAME, use the static properties on the Environment class instead. Windows and MacOS both have variables for the temp directory, but they have different names. All of them have PATH, but not much else. Use “Environment” Class Properties Instead of “env:” DriveĮnvironment variables are different between the different operating systems. I learned a lot that I wanted to share with the community as cross-platform support becomes more and more important. I just spent a month updating one of our PowerShell modules to support Linux and MacOS.

With its spectacular visual celebration of scientific advancement, the film might initially appear to be pro-technology, but its villain is a murderous computer, HAL. A bone tossed up into the air visually segues into a spinning spacecraft in the year 2001. The film famously opens with apes using bones as tools, thus taking the first step toward evolving into humans. Stanley Kubrick's (1928–1999) 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), for example, presented a very sophisticated 3-D simulation of outer space and spacecrafts. Though science fiction films have a history of criticizing technology, they themselves frequently depend on the most advanced technological innovations. As a rule of thumb, it is helpful to remember that pure fantasy films, such as The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), or pure horror films like Dracula (1931) tend to emphasize the power of magic and the supernatural, while pure science fiction films, such as The Andromeda Strain (1971), emphasize both the power of technology and scientific innovation and the power of the rational human mind. It makes more sense to consider science fiction (like most genres) as existing on a continuum, where some films are mostly science fiction, and others contain only a few science fiction elements. It is futile to split hairs debating whether a film is truly science fiction, since so many movies mix elements of SF with horror and fantasy. Indeed, some movies simultaneously embody both horror and science fiction, such as The Thing (1982), Planet of the Vampires (1965), The Fiend Without a Face (1958), and Alien (1979). With its frequent focus on alien monsters and fantastic special effects, science fiction overlaps with two other genres, fantasy and horror. Spectacular sets, costumes, and special effects are common, though by no means de rigueur. Technology is notably advanced (in many futuristic societies) or absent (in post-apocalyptic societies destroyed by technological forces such as atom bombs). Settings are often futuristic and dystopic. Stories often center on space travel, encounters with alien life-forms, and time travel. Though science fiction films vary widely in their politics and aesthetics, they share some key recurring elements. Their lessons may be conveyed with all the subtlety of a Western Union telegram, but there is no denying that good science fiction films try harder than other genres to ask "deep" questions: Why are we here? What is our future? Will technology save or destroy us? It is not unusual for even low-budget, low-concept science fiction films to "send messages" about human nature or the relationship of humans and machines. Science fiction films, though, are often notable for their idea-driven narratives social commentary, although not always profound, is a frequent element of sci-fi. Believing that films were strictly for entertainment, Golden Age film producer Sam Goldywn is reputed to have said, "If you want to send a message, use Western Union." Notwithstanding a handful of so-called social problem films, Hollywood films do tend more toward the innocuous than the politically confrontational.
