![]() The most peculiar development in an album that touts contributions from gifted hip-hop producers like Rick Rubin, 88 Keys, Mike Dean, and Om’mas Keith, Michael Uzowuru, and Pharrell Williams is that only a third of the songs here have identifiable drums. But the textures are so dense and frequently fascinating that Blonde scans as meticulously constructed rather than shiftless. A reasonable complaint might be that in all its twists, this album very much sounds like 40-some-odd creative voices jibing. Blonde whisks from the penitent soul of “Nikes” through gossamer waves of strummed guitars in “Ivy,” stripped balladry in “Solo” and “Good Guy,” and electric blues on “Self Control.” The range is owed in part to a list of co-conspirators that serves as a who’s who of recent Album of the Year lists, including Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, Jamie xx, Arca, and dozens more. Blonde makes a formidable case for Frank Ocean as more than a whip-smart R&B guy the same way Outkast’s exploding tastes helped restore a sense of genre fluidity to black pop music in their epoch. But Frank’s not just fixating on tragedy he’s studying missteps the same way “Solo (Reprise)” guest star André 3000, of Outkast, did in remaining defiantly sober as he came up, while famously declaring that all of his heroes did dope.Īndré’s appearance here is fitting. Doomed musical forebears hang around like cautionary tales: Elliott Smith is quoted in “Seigfried,” and Kurt Cobain, 2pac, and others creep into lyrics elsewhere. Blonde’s constant is a reflexive sense of the burgeoning freedom of self-discovery and also the dangers of chiseling out one’s ideal self mistake by mistake. “Solo” finds him single and enamored of acid and free love, all the while imagining the bad trips, medical and psychological, that befall the careless. Ocean can never be again: In “Nights,” he’s a homeless boyfriend hanging around a significant other in Texas after being displaced from Louisiana by Hurricane Katrina. The new album Blonde is a rogues’ gallery of all the bygone Franks that Mr. ![]() Frank Ocean lives haunted by the possibilities. ![]() The trip from adolescence into adulthood is the forest of these fears, of forked roads to possible futures that dissolve the instant you set about a specific path. On record, Ocean is constantly questioning whether or not his best life lies in his rearview, fretful that some burnt bridge or wrong turn has quietly and imperceptibly wrecked everything. Are you happy? Would you give up life as you know it to zip back to some idyllic teen summer and laze on the arm of a sorely missed first love? These questions salt the bedrock of Frank Ocean’s work, from the Coachella romance of “Novacane,” breakthrough single from a mixtape literally titled Nostalgia, Ultra, to Channel Orange, an album of brokenhearted reminiscences set in motion by a PlayStation firing up a game of Street Fighter. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() 10, 2020, but was delayed due to various developmental factors. Halo Infinite was initially set for release on Nov. For the most part, though, the multiplayer mode has been well received by players. 343 Industries has since made an announcement and will look to improve the system, which will see players rewarded with more XP when they begin a multiplayer session with decreasing XP per game thereafter. However, the early access was not free from criticism - many players felt the game's Battle Pass progression was overly tiresome. ![]() Microsoft opted to release the multiplayer beta ahead of time in a dual 20th-anniversary celebration with Halo.

"This brings me back to the marketing campaigns of Halo 3 and it couldn't make me any happier," wrote user JarekTheGamingDragon. Various YouTube commenters reminisced over the live-action trailers produced for past titles such as Halo 3 and Halo: Reach. The Halo team has a history of producing live-action trailers for its games - something that has become somewhat of a motif for the series. He looks over a battlefield, and like those everyday people before him, jumps into the action. As the dust settles, Halo protagonist Master Chief is revealed for the first time. An unknown figure rescues the pilot before an explosion occurs. Each mini-arc in the trailer, titled "Forever We Fight," builds up tension, leading towards a familiar-looking aircraft crash landing. ![]() These people are seemingly inspired by and inspire Master Chief. A shepherd protects his flock from a wolf attack, a woman defends her war-torn home, an ocean rescue team attempts to save someone floating adrift, and an astronaut prepares for a mission into the unknown. ![]() ![]() It is important to recognise that everything in redemption belongs to us but only what we believe is released. This is why no force from hell can stop faith from having its way (Matthew 19:26 Hebrews 11:32-34). It is by faith that we dominate the world of the spirit and ‘have it the way we want’ in spite of fiery opposing forces (Ephesians 6:16).įaith brings God’s hand to bear on a man’s life for exploits: Faith brings God’s hand to bear on our situations and when He stretches forth His hand, no one can turn it back (Isaiah 14:27, 43:14, 53:1). That’s why we must strive to invest in building our faith so we can take delivery of our redemptive packages (Romans 1:16).įaith has the capacity to dominate the world of the spirit by quenching all the fiery darts of the devil: When faith comes alive, we tap into the power of God that no other power can confront. ![]() That means, without faith, we cannot see the power of God and without the power of God, we cannot be healed, delivered or set free. When our faith in the Word comes alive, God’s power flows supernaturally and changes our situations. We must understand that faith is our covenant access to the power of God in the Word. This shows that when we exercise faith, virtue is triggered for our healing and deliverances (Luke 8:44-48). Her faith simply triggered the flow of virtue that ended her shame and reproach. For instance, we saw from the Scripture that the woman with the issue of blood touched the hem of Jesus’ garment by faith and she was made perfectly whole. It is the Covenant Trigger for the Manifestation of the Power of God: Faith triggers the flow of virtue, which brings about our healing, health and wholeness. Faith is also the answer to the breakthroughs we desire (Hebrews 11:30 Luke 5:3-8). ![]() For instance, when Jesus’ disciples asked Him why they couldn’t deliver the boy possessed with demons, Jesus said: …Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place and it shall remove and nothing shall be impossible unto you (Matthew 17:20 see also Matthew 15:28). Therefore, faith is the answer to every problem of life. As it is written: Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth (Mark 9:23).įaith is a Spiritual Treasure of Inestimable Value: This means we cannot place value on it because it is far beyond what can be measured. Today, we shall focus on Unveiling the Unlimited Power of Faith!įrom scriptures, we discover that faith is the master key for taking the delivery of our inheritances in Christ.

They offered plenty of very good heavy loadings, like Norma Oryx 156 gr, Norma Vulcan 156 gr, Lapua Mega 155 gr, which truly made the 6.5×55 a big game round and at the same time also enabled it to survive along with much stronger calibers floating about nowdays. And besides the hunters themselves, it was also well supported by big ammo manufacturers, like Norma. While in scandinavia the 6.5×55 had always been a big game round. ![]() As a result the cartridge did not suvive large wild boar populations boom as there was not a lot of suitable ammo about anymore. Unfortunately RWS stopped making it sometimes in 97' or 98'. It was praised by german hunters as a very good round also for wild boar, which started to appear in large numbers in europe in 80ies and 90ies. The only heavier load was RWS H Mantel 155 gr. The selection of ammo was available in light of this. The germans however mainly used the 6.5×57 for lighter deer species. But it was not used in the same way in these countries as the swede was in scandinavia. It was a really popular round in Germany and Austria in the 60ies and 70ies. This coupled with somewhat poor factory ammo selection would put the swede on the top of my list. The Steyr in 6.5×57 is the looker of the two, but the 6.5×57 seems to be much more fussy about different ammo and also homeloads. The Blaser shoots everything accurately and to pretty much the same POI.

He added that he realizes no piece of hardware installed in the avionics bay can cut the chances of a crash happening to zero forever. “It breaks my heart every time I hear about one of these crashes,” Bateman said. He seems to know by rote the circumstances of every major CFIT-related air disaster in the last 20 years, describing each in ways that convey to the listener that he is deeply and emotionally invested in his chosen profession. Few are more versed than Bateman on the subject of CFIT accident statistics or as passionate when arguing that such catastrophes can be prevented. Quite the contrary, on dozens of occasions pilots have reported that the device probably prevented a crash from occurring or broke the chain of events that was leading toward a dangerous situation.Īnd yet the man most responsible for the development of EGPWS, Honeywell chief engineer Don Bateman, is the first to admit the system’s limitations. Specifically, the statistics show that after more than 60 million flights over a seven-year span, not a single airplane flying with EGPWS has fallen victim to CFIT. In that time, the CFIT (controlled flight into terrain) accident rate among aircraft that carry EGPWS has dropped to zero. ![]() Since the introduction of the enhanced ground proximity warning system (EGPWS) in 1996, more than 16,000 airplanes worldwide have been fitted with the Honeywell-manufactured safety device. ![]() |
