![]() B – BirdĪlthough it’s slightly controversial, ‘bird’ is a really common way to describe women in roadman slang. ‘Buki’ can be used to describe a person or a thing that is strange or weird, i.e. There’s a couple of spelling variations on this one, you may also see it written as ‘bookey’ or ‘booky’ (note: it’s pronounced boo-key). It means ‘really’, but depending on the situation it can also describe having a lot of something. ‘Bare’ is a little word that can be used in many contexts. ‘Bruv’ is short for brother, and is often used between men to address each other, whether they’re actually brothers or not. B – BruvĪnother common word in London roadman slang. A bit like someone who is trying to use roadman phrases without knowing what they mean. ![]() If someone’s being ‘bait’, it means that they’re being obvious and annoying. One of my favourites, ‘bait’ means obvious. ‘Allow it’ means to stop doing something or to leave something alone. Let’s start with a phrase you’ll hear plenty of. Make sure to keep an ear out for these words when you visit London. Roadmen basically have their own language. So you’ll likely recognise many of the words in this dictionary, but do you know their roadman meaning? Roadman Slang Dictionary You’ll find a lot of roadman slang is based on rehashing words and giving them a different meaning. If you want to sound natural, the key is to not overdo it – don’t throw too many slang words in at once or you’ll sound bait. Now, it can be very tricky to get roadman slang right. ![]() How to Speak Roadman Slang Like the Real Deal So whether you’re a frazzled mum trying to decipher what the heck your kid is saying, or just want to up your cool factor with a bit of local slang, by the time you whizz through this little dictionary, you’ll be chatting bare tings with the best of them. London’s infamous roadmen have their own lingo but I’ll let you in on a little secret. Roadman: Roadman comes from the 21st century slang word, describing a boy (normally at a teenage age) as someone who thoroughly knows the ins and outs of his area, and the people in the area – he will also be involved in popular events such as trapping, driving (cruising), parties etc. What’s a roadman you ask? I’ll hand it over to Urban Dictionary on this one… It’s a truth universally acknowledged that you can’t spend any time in London without catching a phrase or two of roadman slang.

![]() The software element of Flex is Pro Tools Ultimate. Pro Tools Flex isn’t just the software, it is a bundle of products and additional content aimed at Post Production and large studios, facilities and institutions. All holders of current perpetual Pro Tools licences will be automatically entitled to Pro Tools Studio software.Ī one year subscription for Pro tools Studio is $299, A month to month subscription is $39.99, An annual subscription paid monthly is $31.99 The Complete plugin bundle is augmented by the two new Virtual Instruments. Considering the level of interest in Dolby Atmos for music this feels very appropriate as surround and Atmos are very much things which a music producer/mixer now has a need for.Īudio Track limits are doubled from 256 to 512, Automation capabilities are improved and Clip FX are now editable. The big feature upgrade is Surround and Atmos capability, previously only available in Ultimate. This also is a subscription-only product for new customers and in several ways feels closer to Pro Tools Ultimate than the old Pro Tools Standard. It is Avid’s main music product and should meet the needs of non HDX users. This middle tier product replaces the version which was known as Pro Tools, often referred to as Pro Tools Standard or Pro Tools Vanilla. It’s only available as a subscription product for $99 a year or $9.99 and month. Unsurprisingly Pro Tools Artist is stereo only. It’s good to see Melodyne Essentials and Eleven II as well as Reverb One included in this bundle. Most are familiar and have been part of the lineup for many years but there is a good mix of dynamics and EQ, filters and modulation and guitar stomps. The plugin bundle offers nearly everything current subscribers can access as the Complete Bundle, and it includes the two new virtual instruments which will be covered later. Artist ships with over 100 bundled plugins and the restriction on use of third party plugins which existed in Pro Tools First doesn’t apply here, you can run third party AAX plugins. The track count of Pro Tools Artist is limited to 32 audio, 32 auxes, 32 instrument and 64 MIDI and the IO is limited to 16 inputs and outputs. In the past, users like this have often not considered Pro Tools as an option, seeing it as too expensive and complicated, less capable for MIDI use and lacking bundled plugins, virtual instruments and sounds. With MIDI samples and loops being prominent in production and probably only needing a few mic inputs. This product is aimed at what Avid have referred to as Next Gen music creators, often young, usually inexperienced but who are serious about creating new music. While not free, the pricing of Artist is accessible and we feel the value proposition is much improved, which is quite an achievement when comparing to a free product! The point is that with Pro Tools Artist you have enough to do real work. Pro Tools First was very much a walled garden and was limited to the point that it was frustrating to use. Existing perpetual licences will, of course, continue to function and new perpetual licences which are already in the sales pipeline will continue to be available via dealers but new licences will not be entering that pipeline. ![]() So the headlines are that new perpetual licences will not be available for sale after April 26th. Among the new features in this latest version of Ultimate is a raising of the native IO limit from 64 to 256 channels making it very interesting to Dolby Atmos mixers. Pro Tools Flex bundles Pro Tools Ultimate with additional content and third party products which will grow over time. Pro Tools Flex - For Audio Post facilities and high end music studios, this option’s software remains Pro Tools Ultimate and is required for HDX/HD Native systems. It doubles the Audio Track count of current Pro Tools, adds surround capabilities including Dolby Atmos support via the Dolby Atmos renderer and introduces new virtual instruments. ![]() Pro Tools Studio - This replaces Pro Tools (as opposed to Pro Tools Ultimate). A third of the cost of Pro Tools and far more capable than the discontinued, free Pro Tools First. Pro Tools Artist - aimed at the next generation of entry level or budget-conscious users who don’t need all the features of Pro Tools. There are now three versions of Pro Tools: With Pro Tools 2022.4 Avid have shaken up their product lineup, adding value for everyone but particularly for aspiring producers and continuing their progression towards moving customers to a subscription model. ![]()

I’m so glad that I went through that Boot Camp and I’m so glad that several of you went through it with me as well. I actually went back five years, and I have five cute little family albums that we all enjoy. This is something I did last year during our Photo Reset Boot Camp. The last step is to create a yearly photo book. ![]() Old habits die hard so if you find this to be a struggle you will want to grab my Photo Reset course to learn my system for resetting photos more often. Then, set up a system and habits for staying on top of those photos so that you don’t fall into the trap of having 20,000 photos again. Then you’re going to organize those photos in a neat filing system so those photos can be easily found. It will take some time and a strategic process but you need to declutter last year’s photos before they are lost or misplaced. The first step of my photo reset is to declutter the photos from the year before. I am not doing it this year because I want to turn that boot camp into a course that you can take on your own. Last year, I did a Photo Reset Boot Camp to accomplish decluttering and organizing my phone’s photos.
Gray, however, suddenly realizes that Aki's infection is the reason she ended their relationship and seeks her out for more answers. Sid, but General Hein is suspicious that Aki could be corrupted and manipulated by her infection and orders Gray to keep an eye on her. These Spirits must possess specific wave patterns which, when combined and used against the Phantom Spirits' similar patterns, could neutralize them forever. In order to cure her, and provide a permanent solution to defeating the Phantoms, Aki needs to collect the signatures of eight Spirits. ![]() She is alive because the particles in her body are contained and monitored by a chest plate which creates a shield of spiritual wavelengths that counter the particles' growth. Sid's strategies hold water, Aki reveals that she carries an active infection due to exposure to Phantom particles from a few months ago. When Hein angrily asks for proof that Dr. Sid argues to continue pursuing non-violent methods, saying that a blast from the Zeus Cannon could harm the Earth. General Hein, driven by personal tragedy, is insistent on using the Zeus Cannon to destroy the Leonid Crater and the Phantom threat once and for all. They are later summoned to a United Nations Security Council meeting where world leaders and members of the USMF, led by General Douglas Hein ( James Woods), discuss how to further deal with the Phantom threat. Sid then burns his diary, telling Aki that not everyone shares their ideas and they should not be permitted to be used against them. When the physical body dies, the Spirit returns to Gaia and brings with it all its experiences, enabling Gaia to mature and grow. It explains that all Spirits are born of Gaia, the Spirit of the Earth, and inhabit physical bodies. Sid is concerned that Aki's exposition to the wastelands could shut down their lab and shows her an old diary of his. ![]() Sid, and they confirm the plant Aki retrieved is the sixth of eight Spirits she is collecting. When they return to New York Barrier City they must pass through a decontamination process which Aki avoids by saving Gray from a Phantom infection he sustained during the operation. However, Aki stubbornly goes on until she finds a small, green plant the object of her search. Though Aki and Gray share a romantic history, he attempts to place her under arrest for being in the wastelands without authorization. Aki is soon surrounded by Phantoms in the ruins of Times Square, but she is rescued by a squadron known as 'Deep Eyes', a branch of the United States Military Force tasked with patrolling the wastelands. She disembarks into the wasteland with sensors and begins searching. After recording the dream, her ship lands in Old New York just outside the shield city that comprises of lower Manhattan. Sid and fellow bio-etheric scientist, wakes from a dream aboard her ship, the Black Boa. Sid's opposition to drastic measures prevent the cannon from being used. Extended testing, delays in the construction of Shield Cities, and Dr. This technology is also used to create the Zeus Cannon, an assault space station designed to obliterate the Phantom's place of origin within the Leonid Crater. Sid develops Wave Theory technology which implements counteractive energy wavelengths given off by Spirits and Phantoms to invent visual scanners, weapons, and shields to combat the alien threat and protect the surviving human population. ![]() Sid ( Donald Sutherland) discovers through his studies in Bio-Etherics, which is based on the theory that every living thing has a life force or Spirit, that the deaths are caused by alien creatures called Phantoms, invisible to the naked eye and lethal to the touch. After losing his wife to the suspected virus, a biochemist named Dr. Over the next eight years, all forms of life begin mysteriously dying. In the year 2031, 34 years prior to the start of the film, a meteorite produced by the annual Leonid Meteor Shower strikes Earth near the Caspian Mountains. ![]() How dare you try to tell me when to walk and where?’ It’s like yes, you are an actress, but an actress takes direction from the director. Claim: An image shows a young Frances Bavier, the actress who played Aunt Bee Taylor on " The Andy Griffith Show," posing for a pin-up style photo. It was, like, ‘I’m an actress and I know what I’m doing. Aunt Bee had a few romances, can you guess who were describing. If you would ask her to move three inches to the right to get in the proper frame, or, ‘Could you stand up when you say that line?’, she’d blow a fuse and refuse. Bass on the show and directed episodes of it, said that directing Frances was like stepping on a landmine. I can only repeat what I was told, but on The Andy Griffith Show, Howard Morris, who played Ernest T. That’s the earliest I can point to where Frances was already getting to be persnickety. Eve Arden had trouble with her on The Eve Arden Show. Pop culture historian Geoffrey Mark, author of The Lucy Bookand Ella: A Biography of the Legendary Ella Fitzgerald, opines, “She was a very talented lady, but she was very difficult to work with and nobody could really figure it out. The Snappy Lunch, a landmark in Andy Griffith's hometown of Mount Airy, North Carolina, since 1923, is one of a handful of actual Mount Airy businesses. But that is generally not the husband’s point of view and I sympathize entirely with the man who wants his wife to be completely devoted to him and their children.” I know that many psychologists, particularly women psychologists, hold that a woman can have both a home and a career. And then there’s actress Frances Bavier who had been acting on stage, film and TV for 40 years before playing Aunt Bee on The Andy Griffith Show, yet that was the way people thought of her. She reports this to Clara, who is offended by the remark. To paraphrase Shakespeare, it was not that I loved him less, but I loved acting more. Tillie overhears Aunt Bee telling Andy that it bothers her that Clara acts so uppity. I wanted to be both wife and actress, but learned quickly that this is impossible, at least in my specific case. However, in a 1964 interview with the Star-Gazette of Elmira, New York, she did reflect, “I married a man who was charming in every way, except that, being non-professional, he had little patience with my dedication to acting. Some have said that she was married to Russell Carpenter, member of the military, from 1928 until they divorced in 1933, while other sources claim she was never wed to anyone. There are conflicting reports on whether or not Frances was married during the early years of her career.

![]() Part of it is the lack of real chemistry between Courtney and Ramos some of it is that the FBI agent in charge of the murder is Agent Sean Meyers (Jeffrey Donovan) doesn’t seem to know what tone he’s playing. He still does enough to chew up the scenes he’s in, but there’s a bit of distraction here when it comes to the tone of The Good Thief. ![]() Maybe it’s the gravelly voice, the way he walks, or simply what we’ve come to understand about him. Sure, he’s been doing other projects like Ordinary Love and Made in Italy, but he’s still “thriller material” as a sixty-eight-year-old. Framed for murder, Dolan and Wilkins go on the run, but while this is an elder Neeson film, he’s still playing characters who won’t give up easily.Ģ008’s Taken was the launching of the new Neeson, and over the last twelve years, Neeson has delivered two sequels, Non-Stop, A Walk Among Tombstones, Run All Night, The Commuter, and Cold Pursuit. When Dolan decides to go straight, to return the $9 million he’s stolen, two rogue FBI agents (Jai Courtney and Anthony Ramos) kill another agent and steal money from Dolan. Here, he’s the In-and-Out Bandit, Tom Dolan, a bank robber who finds love with Annie Wilkins (Kate Walsh), a storage rental clerk studying to become a counselor. ![]() Neeson returns, as the latest incarnation of the older action hero. It’s not that he hasn’t played the dark angel of vengeance or been a character we rooted for, but here, he’s the kind of guy who looks back over his life and realizes that he’s made several missteps and wants to make it right. Honest Thief may be Liam Neeson’s most redemptive role since he played Jean Valjean. You can use a cosigner to improve your chances of getting a better rate. The higher your income and the better your credit score, the better your loan offer will be. However, this is no guarantee that every person will qualify for a Chase auto loan. Chase Auto Loan Minimum QualificationsĬhase does not mention any credit score or income requirements. That’s quite a bit lower than Chase’s best auto loan rate. According to Experian’s State of the Automotive Finance Market report (Quarter 3, 2023), borrowers with scores above 780 found APRs of 3.84 percent on average. While Chase offers competitive rates starting at 6.19 percent, those aren’t the lowest rates available. However, making a down payment and especially a larger down payment can result in a lower interest rate and ultimately decrease the final cost of your loan. Chase offers a payment calculator on its website to help you get a better idea of what you might pay. You can get a Chase auto loan with no down payment. Unfortunately, Chase has low customer ratings on the BBB and Trustpilot, and it doesn’t offer 24-hour service or online chat. We also consider mobile app scores and how reachable the company is.ĭoes the company offer 24-hour service or online chat? Chase scored lowest in this category with 3.2 out of 5.0. Our team looks at customer reviews and complaints on Trustpilot and the BBB. Low APRs and great loan terms can be hampered by poor customer service. However, it doesn’t offer savings opportunities like autopay or bundling discounts. A November 2022 consumer loans survey we conducted revealed that 29 percent of respondents cared most about finding a good APR.Ĭhase scores 4.3 out of 5.0 for this category because it offers decent APRs and no fees. One of the first things people think about when shopping for loans is the APR. Chase also doesn’t offer private party loans. Chase bank scores 4.2 for this category because it doesn’t offer refinance loans –only new and used car loans. Next, our team considers what an auto lender offers for loan choices, amounts, terms, and benefits. While Chase doesn’t list a minimum credit score, that doesn’t mean everyone is approved. Minimum credit score is also included in this category. This includes availability by state along with vehicle restrictions like age and mileage. AvailabilityĪnother important part of our rating process is a company’s availability. Chase scores a 4.3-star rating from our team here because it has an A rating on the BBB but is not accredited. Our team looks at a company’s longevity and Better Business Bureau (BBB) rating in this category. It’s important for an auto loan company to be established in the industry with a good reputation. Let’s take a closer look at how we rated Chase auto loans. Our rating methodology covers categories of industry standing, availability, loan details, rates and discounts, and customer service. |
