Originally written by All Time Low, “No Idea” is BTR’s take on the same song-and I’d say they did it better. The comically loud, buzzing piano and hard-hitting drums desperately needed the twinkling, sanguine guitar in the chorus to make this track less harsh on the ears (which I say lovingly). In one word, I’d describe “No Idea” as sharp. Logan sings, “We take what comes, and we keep on going / Leaning on each other’s shoulders / Then we turn around / And see we’ve come so far somehow,” which is a good lesson, for both 7-year-old and 17-year-old me. There’s an intensity and moodiness to the dark, synthetic bass that carries the airy guitar and determined vocals, making this track feel as motivational and encouraging as its lyrics. #6) “Halfway There”Īs a kid, “Halfway There” was my favorite BTR song, and honestly, I can see why seven-year-old me loved it. Everything about “Count on You” is simply divine. Jordin and James have incredible chemistry, the harmonies are wonderful, the call-and-response between Jordin and the boys brilliantly paints a picture-I could go on. What really puts this track over the top, however, is the eloquent, heartfelt vocal performance. There’s an admirable naivete to the lyrics, which aren’t grandiose or descriptive but are, instead, earnest and uncomplicated in a wearing-your-heart-on-your-sleeve kind of way. In direct contrast to “Any Kind of Guy,” “Count on You” is a beautifully-written song about first love and the fear that can come along with it. The vocal delivery, the electrifying post-chorus, James’s high note, the and let’s not forget about Kendall’s “Bring it back”? Perfection, all of it. However, that doesn’t change the fact that I love and will always passionately sing along to this song anytime it comes on shuffle. You shouldn’t have to change yourself to catch someone’s attention or to appeal to them if they don’t like you for who you are, then they’re not worth your time. Okay, I’ll admit it, the message on “Any Kind of Guy” is awful. I have to say, it’s a disgrace that “Paralyzed” isn’t on Spotify. What brings life to this track are the energetic and experimental vocals the intentional stuttering and frenzied feel is not only relatable, as the boys sing about feeling paralyzed around a crush, but it adds a touch of realism and makes the song more appealing. “Paralyzed” is tightly-composed, and that was an intentional move the fresh beat and bleak guitar feel restricted, like someone would when they’re frozen in place… it’s genius. Nothing was more bonding for Jack and I than singing, dancing and, finally, striking a back-to-back pose along to the, “Go and shake it up! Whatchu got to lose? / Go and make your luck with the life you choose / If you want it all, lay it on the line / It’s the only life you got, so you gotta live it big time.” #9) “Paralyzed” The bouncy, joyous piano, funky synths and contrasting, gritty guitar instantly bring me back to the nights I spent on the couch with my younger brother, watching each new episode of the show as it aired for the first time. If I had to pick one song to represent my childhood, this track (which was the theme song for the TV show) would be the obvious choice. But really, I wouldn’t want to be sleep-deprived for any other song. While the lyrics are… simplistic, to put it nicely, they make the track memorable and catchy-to the point where, as I’m trying to fall asleep, the echoing, “Oh yeah, oh yeahs” play on a loop in my brain. Honorable Mentions: “Til I Forget About You,” “All Over Again,” “We Are” and “Like Nobody’s Around.” #11) “Oh Yeah”įrom the dry synths and crisp percussion to the blazing guitar and confident vocals, “Oh Yeah” is groovy, and the whimsical bridge is easily the best of BTR’s entire discography. To celebrate the group’s 11th birthday, I’ll be counting down my top 11 songs by BTR. 28 is regarded as the anniversary of the creation of Big Time Rush (BTR), the band. The hour-long pilot episode, “Big Time Audition,” served as a preview of the series, which officially debuted in Jan. 28, 2009, Big Time Rush (the TV show) premiered to an audience of 3.6 million viewers.

newspaper that it’s “a good message to all Muslims.” Oussama Elsaadi, an iman with a mosque in Denmark’s second-largest city Aarhus, told the B.T. The government has said there must “be room for religious criticism” and that there were no plans to reintroduce a blasphemy clause that was repealed in 2017. This year alone, activists have staged more than 500 protests, including burnings of the Quran, in front of embassies of Muslim countries, places of worship and in immigrant neighborhoods.ĭenmark has repeatedly distanced itself from the desecrations, but has insisted that freedom of expression is one of the most important values in Danish society. “A restriction of freedom of expression is wrong in a modern and enlightened society like the Danish one,” Støjberg said. Inger Støjberg of the anti-immigration Denmark Democrats said that the new law was a capitulation to Islam and a bowing down to countries that “do not share (our) set of values.” “Does Iran change its legislation because Denmark feels offended by something an Iranian could do? Does Pakistan? Does Saudi Arabia? The answer is no,” Karina Lorentzen of the Socialist People’s Party asked rhetorically. The government didn’t say anything and were called “cowards” by the opposition. The new legislation will make it a crime “to inappropriately treat, publicly or with the intention of dissemination in a wider circle, a writing with significant religious significance for a religious community or an object that appears as such.” Works of art where “a minor part” includes a desecration, but is part of a larger artistic production, isn’t covered by the ban.ĭuring the more than four-hour debate, left-leaning and far-right parties united against the center-right government, repeatedly demanding that the three-party coalition that presented the draft on Aug. The Folketing, or parliament, adopted the law in a 94-77 vote, with eight lawmakers absent. “That is why it is important that we now get better protection against the systematic desecrations we have seen for a long time.” “We must protect the security of Denmark and Danes,” Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard said in a statement. The purpose of the law was to counter “the systematic mockery” which, among other things, has contributed to intensifying the threat of terrorism in Denmark, the justice ministry has said.

Furthermore, combining the Support class' Empower and Teamwork will allow your Sniper to continue popping heads as needed.įor your gear & weapon mods, you should prioritize cooldown reduction, refresh, and magazine size. Additionally, Second Chance ensures that any untimely misses allow you to retry a skill at least once. Most encounters will begin with your Sniper using Chain Shot to initiate, Fast Fingers when you run low on ammunition (note that Fast Fingers can proc Active Reload if it's the final bullet), and Ultimate Shot whenever you run low on AP. This provides your Sniper a plethora of AP and opportunities to mitigate any shot RNG as well. The skills you want to prioritize are Second Chance, Fast Fingers (LV2), Chain Shot (LV2), Ultimate Shot. They use their skills to chain together kills that in turn refresh the skills! It is recommended that you heavily spec into the Hunter tree as the more Action Points you can generate the better. The Sniper class can single-handedly decimate waves of enemies. In short, a Support's role is to spam Empowered and Teamwork to ensure that your damage dealers, like Scouts and Snipers, can clean up enemy waves by themselves.įor your gear & weapon mods, you should prioritize cooldown reduction, refresh, and AP gain. Afterwards, you should progress towards the Surge skill in the Strategist tree to provide further opportunities for AP gain. This will provide you free AP for you and your allied units nearly every turn, especially when paired with equipment mods that reduce or refresh cooldowns. The recommended skill progression is to immediately work towards Empowered (LV3) and Teamwork (LV2). Thus, the Surgeon and Combat Medic trees can be safely disregarded. It's usually a better idea to clear out enemy waves quickly rather than extending the firefight by healing. Healing skills & passives have severely reduced value when enemies can essentially one-shot you. This is also the only skill tree, which has any worthwhile investment on higher difficulties. The Support class is a force multiplier for any squad due to its Paragon skill tree, which gives it access to skills like Empower, Teamwork, and Lock & Load. Max level skill tree with level 1-7 skill progression labelled. There's another bug that causes the program to crash. This allows me to print double sided, multiple copies that are collated properly (printed from an HP OfficeJet 6480). My work around is to export a PDF and print from there. Depending upon your printer, it may not allow you to take advantage of printing features, such as duplexing or collating. There a still a few bugs in the program, such as printing scripts. I've always received quick and useful replies from my tech support requests. Technical support is is readily available at no cost. The scene outline feature, index cards, and notes are very helpful. Movie Magic Screenwriter is an excellent screenwriting program. Perhaps this is foretells a new update soon. This release has been available for a long time, so for me it is not an update. But for a robust heavy-lifting app with good production features and good links to scheduling apps etc., Screenwriter takes some beating. All of them have weaknesses all of them have irritating "strengths" where they'll try their hardest to impose their will on the hapless writer. In short, there's no screenwriting app which does everything. We're tool-using animals, after all.) The truth is, no screenplay which tells a good story and tells it well is ever going to be rejected because the Transitions are 5mm too far from the right margin. In the meantime, it's worth remembering that obsessing about formatting minutiae is probably a displacement activity. I hope we'll get the same level of interoperability between Scrivener and Screenwriter one day. For a fine working combination, preliminary work in Scrivener and "final draft" in FInal Draft is probably hard to beat. PDF is the most usual way of transferring stuff, and if you get to the point where a producer/director wants a script in the other format to the app you have, there are plenty of ways around it.įor a standalone writing environment, then, Screenwriter, for me, wins easily. Not really true, and shouldn't really be a major factor in your choice. Stage plays use "internal" and "external" direction, and it would be nice to be able to call your elements by those names instead of trying to remember that ACTION is now being used for INT DIRECTION.įInal Draft is touted as the Hollywood "industry standard". And, like FD, it won't let you rename standard elements - which can be a pain, frankly. Creating a new element (I'm working with a LYRIC element a lot at the moment) is less intuitive with Screenwriter. Screenwriter isn't as good as FD for reformatting - going through an (imported, perhaps) script making sure all the elements are properly assigned. But it's like an old Land Rover: may look crufty on the outside, but you forget about that once you're one the move and, instead, just enjoy its reliability. Every time I fire it up (most days) I think: Lord, but this is fugly. On the downside, Screenwriter is less "Mac-like" than FD 8. Final Draft 8 has the "FD Exchange format" which solves the problem unfortunately Screenwriter can't export to that (though the brilliant Scrivener can). ***CAVEAT***: both FD and Screenwriter get completely confused if you import/paste anything using the SHOT element. Screenwriter is also much better at making sense of cut-and-paste or imported RTF files, which may or may not be of use to you. There's not that faint walking-on-eggshells I get with FD. The nearest comparison is the Mellel outliner. Move the outline item and the script passages associated with it move too. Screenwriter's foolishly-named "NaviDoc" is actually a very useful, very powerful outliner with total control over what is visible, what prints, and so on. Of course, Final Draft devotees may say the same thing about FD it's maybe what you're used to that counts. Swapping fretting about formatting styles for fretting about your writing app is obviously no progress at all, and my experience is that Screenwriter is a bit less noticeable in use than Final Draft. The only point of a screenwriting app is to get out of your way. Screenwriter's strengths are, first of all, in its transparency. (Celtx and Montage are both coming along, but I'd not yet trust real live work to them. It's not without its frustrations but I find it a more robust and congenial tool than its only real rival, Final Draft. Been using Screenwriter for many years and v6 is a big jump ahead of the previous version (Screenwriter 2000). Hyundai’s second-generation commercial hydrogen fuel cell electric car, Nexo, will also be presented at the expo. Several eco-vehicles and charging devices will be on display at the expo, including the Nissan e-NV200 electric car that is equipped with a 40kWh high-capacity lithium battery offering 80% chargeability in 40 minutes. One of the hottest environmental trends is the development of green transportation that will help to reduce exhaust emissions and carbon footprint. Green Transportation Zone: Ready and Charged for a Test Drive/Ride This pioneering technology is highly effective in blocking sound in adverse conditions and can be applied to power generation and energy systems, transportation and household appliances. Some of the start-up products and technologies were showcased at today’s Eco Expo Asia press conference, with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) highlighting its patented innovative soundproofing metamaterials that outperforms traditional soundproofing material such as sponge and rock wool. The expo’s Startup Zone will feature products from 20 fledgling companies, offering them a prime opportunity to connect with potential investors and business partners. The expo will feature nine thematic zones, including Green Buildings and Energy Efficiency, Green Transportation, Waste Management and Recycling and the Startup zone, presenting a comprehensive range of green products and technologies.Īn increasing number of start-up companies are being attracted to invest in research and development in green products and technologies. To promote waste-reduction awareness among businesses and the public, Eco Expo Asia has adopted a new theme this year – “Waste Less Save More for a Low-carbon Future”. Nine Thematic Zones: Startup Zone Showcases Innovative Green Technology Start-up exhibitor “Eat-naked 30” runs Green Experiential Dining campaigns that provide various tertiary institutions and organisations with international, eco-friendly and innovative products such as edible plates from India, leaf plates from Germany, and paper BBQ stoves from Denmark Statistics also showed that investment in the environmental sector on the Chinese mainland, including environmental pollution control, waste management and energy-saving, is projected to exceed Rmb$15 trillion during the 13th Five-Year Plan period.Ĭommenting on the importance of Eco Expo Asia, Alice Cheung, Deputy Director of the Environmental Protection Department, said she hopes the event will enhance cooperation and exchange between the government and industry players, promote the enormous opportunities in Asia, encourage the business sector and government departments to conduct green sourcing, and help to raise public awareness on environmental issues. According to the government’s Census and Statistics Department, the value added by Hong Kong’s environmental industry in 2016 was HK$8.4 billion, growing 6.7% year on year. Mr Chau noted that there are plenty of business opportunities in the green market. As Asia’s leading innovative technology hub, Hong Kong can provide the latest solutions for carbon reduction and drive the region’s development of the environmental industry through events such as Eco Expo Asia, bringing together a wide array of innovative green products and technologies.” “The business sector and governments across Asia have been actively promoting waste reduction and energy saving. “We are currently facing a range of environmental challenges across the globe,” said HKTDC Deputy Executive Director Benjamin Chau. The Environment Bureau will cooperate with different government departments to form an HKSAR Government booth, the largest zone at the expo, to promote environmental policies and a range of green projects. In line with the government’s efforts to push the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, various cities will gather in the Greater Bay Area Zone to present local green opportunities. Groups from the Chinese mainland’s Hunan, Zhaoqing and Inner Mongolia will participate for the first time, joining 13 international pavilions to showcase the latest green technologies.
