 for each channel. I’ve heard this amp in person before as my friend used to own one so I was familiar with the sounds before purchasing. There’s a ton of videos on YouTube demoing it, though I recommend the ones by the official Bugera channel.Through my childhood I followed classical dance training at the Conservatory and after my baccalaureate degree I enrolled into medical school in Strasbourg. I dropped everything, I started studying visual arts and followed the painting course at the Decorative Arts of Strasbourg: why? An absolute necessity. I wondered for a long time why had I not made a career as a dancer: it was the competition that made me run away.
In 2011, I approached this field rather late because of a simple sentence from a friend who said to me “but why don’t you make a video with your paintings …..? ” Having two sons in the field of cinema, I threw myself into the adventure by casting this challenge. I was very well surrounded.

I have been working on the theme of war since 2001 and current events in the world and have made me question. I found a notebook dating from 1941 in my family home and it was a real Pandora’s box.
Someone, I do not know, had cut out images of war, glued and staged them together. These images are from February to April 1941 and mostly represent London. I had forgotten all these war stories and yet I have not stopped hearing them. It is in 2001 on September 11 with the fall of twin towers, that I realized that history repeats itself. All I had heard during my childhood came back: the rise of racism, unemployment, precariousness. Having worked for a long time in a very difficult establishment, I was at the heart of it all. I had only one question: where is the world going?
The question I ask myself every time is “what am I doing with what’s happening to me?” And with “Sweet Fight” everything started in my studio. Actually I need to tell a story and at the same time completely forget it. In this project I was confronted with a simple task with another artist: a wall and an exhibition, with the question how we organize ourselves to hang the works? And it ended with a huge argument: the other artist did not speak to me …… I made the video!
As said it’s really related to the work of painting and artist’s book.
I saw this as a challenge, I imagine the whole process of the video, I often have the editing timeline in mind quickly.
I take everything that falls into my hands: technique does not interest me at all, what will count is experimentation and content. The last video was made with an Ipad.
I started with a team: my two sons, and now I continue with people I wish to create with. The big difference with painting is teamwork. I really like working in this way.
When I finish: I request only two persons to give me their opinions.
As a matter of fact I dream of working on documentaries. I like to observe people and their reactions.The Georgia Public Service Commission unanimously approved to continue the construction of the Vogtle nuclear expansion project. The move “greenlights Georgia Power’s revised cost request and schedule largely as is, with some additional “carrot and stick” provisions designed to incentivize project completion.” The final decision came after several rounds of hearing this past fall and came down to a decision whether ratepayers should carry the financial burden of a lengthened schedule and increased costs for the reactor expansion.
The assembly of the reactor at Rostov 4 in Russia has been completed. Hydraulic tests have now began and once completed, the regulator Rostekhnadzor will have the decision to give permission to bring the reactor to the minimum controlled power level. Start-up of the reactor and its grid connection is expected next year, along with another new Russian unit named the VVER-1200 reactor.

5 steps to a killer Jira dashboard: the informatio...Alistair Darling is one of the brighter Government ministers, a potential Chancellor of the Exchequer should Gordon Brown ever want to try his hand at something else. He therefore does not change his mind as spectacularly and as publicly as he did last week without very good reason.
The occasion was last Thursday's dinner of the Association of British Insurers, and the U-turn came when the Social Security Secretary said in his speech that it had never been the Government's intention to target stakeholder pensions at the lowest paid.
'They have always been intended for moderate earners and higher-income earners,' he said.
This came as something of a shock to his audience because virtually without exception they thought the lower-paid were exactly whom stakeholder pensions were intended for. They seemed to recall the Government frequently saying stakeholders were part of its policy to make it easier for those with no other pension provision to set something aside for their old age. Given that most middling to well-paid employment already has a pension attached in some form, that seemed to define the market fairly clearly as the lower-paid who generally work in occupations with no such provision.
So why the sudden change of emphasis? Well it could be that lawyers, and possibly even the Financial Services Authority, have suggested that selling stake-holder pensions to the relatively poor might put those doing the selling and advising in breach of the Financial Services and Markets legislation.
Specifically, financial advisers could see no circumstances in which it would be 'best advice' to recommend a stakeholder pension rather than an ISA, an individual savings account. This is because a poor person could not afford both, and if genuinely poor, the tax relief on stakeholder contributions would be pretty meaningless. That being the case, the flexibility of an ISA makes it by far the better savings vehicle for the relatively poorly-off, given that it allows the saver access to his or her money in times of need - such as mortgage arrears, illness and unemployment.
Pension funds are locked up until retirement, of course, so no matter how desperate the need, the individual could not tap into the lump sum. Thus anyone trying to sell a stakeholder to a poor person would risk prosecution under the law designed to protect investors from being sold unsuitable investments.
That would give joined-up government thinking a bad name. Hence, I suspect, Darling's decision to redefine the target market now before it became apparent to all that targeting stakeholders at the lower-paid would see one branch of government demanding something another branch was determined to ban.
One of the things that make Sir Martin Sorrell's acquisition of Young and Rubicam different is that it is not just shareholder money on the line.
His plan is to create the world's largest advertising agency in WPP. But a major slice of his personal wealth and that of his senior colleagues could go down the tubes if this deal turns sour. This is because the WPP share incentive scheme is substantially different from that of most companies.
In most of Britain's boardrooms, executives are given share options for nothing and if the shares rise sufficiently they collect their profit. In some cases, if the shares fall they get a new load of options re-based at the lower level or some other bonus to compensate for the fact that the options proved worthless.
In the WPP scheme, however, executives have had to put down their own money to qualify for options. If the shares fall, they lose money - and a lot of it at that. While this does not guarantee this week's acquisition will be a success, it should give shareholders comfort. They can be assured Sorrell thought long and hard before deciding to do this deal and the price he was prepared to pay, given the amount of his own money on the line.
What a pity one could not feel similar confidence about some of the other mega deals struck recently by British business.The pickup truck segment is a competitive one, but the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 leaves the competition in the dust. Building on Chevy’s legacy of dependability, the Silverado 1500 makes it easy to create the pickup truck of your dreams, whether you need a new workhorse for your job site or want a touch of luxury on the go.
