![]() Interestingly, in an interview with Hurriyet Daily News, Bağcan says she did not know who Dr. He used the same sample in the song “Issues” featuring the artists Ice Cube, Anderson Paak, and Dem Jointz in the album Compton: A Soundtrack in 2015. ![]() During the interview, she says “Eventually it was okay because the album of Mos Def got a Grammy Award.”Īfter Mos Def sampled Selda Bağcan, her music caught the attention of the rapper and producer Dr. After she gave a concert at the “Le Guess Who? Festival’’ in the Netherlands, she gave an interview to De Volkskrant newspaper. Still, when Selda Bağcan is asked about this situation in her interviews, she gives very positive answers. However, as she says, she had communication problems with lawyers in the United States and after 3 years, the lawsuit was time-barred. She subsequently attempted to file a $50 million lawsuit against Mos Def because he used her work as a sample without any permission. Selda Bağcan eventually learned about this through Turkish people living in the United States. It is worth mentioning that the album was among the nominees in the category of Best Rap Album at the 52nd Grammy Awards the following year. Later on, the song was also featured in Electronic Arts’ game Skate 2 without giving any copyright to Selda Bağcan. The producer of Mos Def’s “Oh No” used Selda Bağcan’s song without any permission. However, Selda Bağcan was not even aware that her song was sampled by the famous rapper. The lyrics of ‘’İnce İnce Kar Yağar’’ tell us about the struggle of the poor which is similar to the lyrics of ‘’Supermagic’’ by Mos Def as the song begins with Martin Luther King’s famous speech “I have a dream” and then the tone of Selda Bağcan’s bağlama and voice accompanies the music. In “Supermagic”, which is the album’s introductory song, Mos Def uses Selda Bağcan’s interpretation of Aşık Mahzuni Şerif’s song on “İnce İnce Kar Yağar” which was released in 1976. One of her songs was sampled by the very famous American rapper Mos Def in his album The Ecstatic. In 2009, something unexpected happened to Selda Bağcan. ![]() This event elevated her career, gaining the singers’ attention from many musicians, producers, and listeners from all over the world. However, with the help of WOMAD Foundation, her passport was returned and she was able to attend the festival and start a European tour, which made her visible in the European music scene. After the 1980 Turkish coup d’état, she was persecuted and her passport was taken by military officials due to politically charged songs which prevented her from joining the WOMAD Foundation Festival, which stands for the world of music, arts, and dance, bringing together many forms of music, arts and dance from countries and cultures around the world, in 1986. Although the music style remained rooted in the folk tradition, Bağcan’s experimental attitude towards music led her to play around with Rock and Roll and synthetic and electronic sounds in her LPs. During the politically polarized 1970s, in which many conflicts arose between far-left, far-right, Islamist militant groups and the state, many of her songs contained strong social criticism and solidarity with the minorities and working-class, making her especially popular among left-wing activists and sympathizers. With the fame she gained, she released twelve more singles and three-LP records and toured many cities in Western Europe and Turkey. She used protest poets’ poems from Turkey as her lyrics. She rose to national prominence thanks to the six singles she released that year in which she interpreted traditional Turkish folk songs in a strong, emotional voice accompanied by a simple acoustic guitar or bağlama, which is a stringed musical instrument in Turkey. She started her career in 1970 during her university years with encouragement from a music producer friend. Her music is quite experimental, synthesizing a wide range of genres from Rock and Roll to Electronica. Selda Bağcan, known as the Queen of Psychedelic Folk Music, is a Turkish singer and songwriter who has written some of the country’s most memorable folk songs.

Next post Previous post A couple of TextExpander thingies ![]() ![]() However, ultrasound determination of the date of ovulation has the same imprecision as does the ultrasound estimate of the gestational age and, therefore, a precise date of conception cannot usually be determined as with in vitro fertilization. The size of your uterus, which will be noted when your initial internal pregnancy exam is performed, can also be a factor in pinpointing the EDD. Because the human egg is capable of fertilization for only 12 to 24 hours after ovulation the date of ovulation may be taken as being the date of conception.An alternative calculation is by adding 38 weeks to the date of transfer and subtract the age of embryos from this date. Your fundal height, which is the measurement from your pubic bone to the top of your uterus, is checked by your practitioner at each prenatal visit and helps confirm your due date. The IVF due date is calculated by adding 38 weeks (i.e., 266 days) to the day the eggs were inseminated. Pregnancy milestones such as the first time the baby's heartbeat is detected (around week 9 or 10, though it can vary) and when you first feel fetal movement (on average between 18 and 22 weeks, but it can be earlier or later), can give clues as to whether your due date is accurate. Other clues can help your health care provider figure out how far along you are and better pinpoint your due date at your prenatal check-ups. Enter your last period date or your IVF egg pickup date. Some practitioners perform them routinely, but others only recommend one if your periods are irregular, you're 35 or older, you have a history of miscarriages or pregnancy complications, or the due date can’t be determined based on your physical exam and LMP. Just be aware, however, that not all women get an early ultrasound. Just choose "ultrasound" from our Due Date Calculator choices. The timing of an early ultrasound can sometimes more accurately date the pregnancy than your LMP and other methods. Even if you can’t pinpoint when you conceived, forget the day of your last menstrual period, or aren’t sure when ovulation occurred, the date of an early ultrasound, if you have one, can help your practitioner determine your due date at your first prenatal appointment or another prenatal visit in your first trimester. A pregnancy Due Date Calculator is a tool that evaluates the due date (date of delivery or giving birth) of a pregnant woman. ![]() Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

To get a feel for the rebound on those massive tires, I went up and down the curbs along the road. I’m used to 29er wheels and it doesn’t feel much different. Out of the gate, the bike rolls very well on pavement. That’s half of what I run in my 2.4 tires! I was told that 14 psi was a bit too much as it might feel bouncy, so I started with 12psi. With such big volume tire, the recommended pressure goes as low as 10psi. The point of this test ride was more about getting a feel for those bigger tires and the way it rides rather than going into component details.

The most galling element of Mississippi’s backwards gaming regulation is the absence of statewide mobile betting–due primarily to the large population of fundamentalist religious nuts. There are a few clear thinking legislators that understand its importance but so far that hasn’t been enough to get it done: The state has retail sports betting but refuses to expand it to online/mobile access. The biggest ‘legacy casino market’ in the US–the state of Nevada–has done just fine so maybe this *isn’t* the problem in Mississippi. Increasingly difficult year-over-year comparisons were felt heavily in legacy casino markets Mississippi and South Dakota and reflect the strength of the consumer gaming market in spring 2021 as operating restrictions were lifted. sports betting market (-32.0%), as well as Kansas (-0.3%), Mississippi (-1.2%) and South Dakota (-1.6%) that are down by low single digits from last year’s pace. Bucking that growth trend is the idiosyncratic D.C. Through April, nearly all commercial gaming states are tracking well ahead of where they were at this point in 2021. The American Gaming Association (AGA) kindly blames Mississippi’s struggles on ‘the difficult year-over-year comparisons’ of the gaming industry’s rebound following the removal of COVID restrictions in 2021: Compared to pre-pandemic levels, visitation was down in April an average of 12.3 percent across the five states. Mississippi casinos registered the largest decline (-12.9%) while Illinois casinos welcomed the highest number of visitors – 806,302 – since before the pandemic. They also registered the largest casino visitation decline of any of the states that track this information (only five do):Ĭasino visitation levels were down year-over-year in April in four of the five states that report admission data (IL, IA, LA, MS, MO). Mississippi is one of only three gaming markets in the US that has seen a revenue decline from 2021 to 2022. The situation is somewhat better on the Gulf Coast where Biloxi and surrounding areas have a dozen or so casinos.

Employment in Tunica casinos is now less than one third of what it was ‘back in the day’. For a while, Tunica was the third largest casino market in the US behind Las Vegas and Atlantic City but that is no longer the case.

Sixty-three adult participants with self-reported normal hearing completed a short cognitive and linguistic battery before listening to sentences interrupted by silent gaps or noise bursts. Additionally, the role of context and everyday speech was investigated using high-context, low-context, and realistic speech corpi to explore these effects. This study examined whether listeners aged 22–63 (mean age 42 years) with better cognitive and linguistic abilities would be better able to perceptually restore missing speech information than those with poorer scores. However, when the acoustic signal is degraded, top-down cognitive and linguistic abilities, such as working memory capacity, lexical knowledge (i.e., vocabulary), inhibitory control, and processing speed can often support speech understanding. When speech is clear, speech understanding is a relatively simple and automatic process. In nutshell, the result of this study suggests using a female voice for robots in noisy conditions, as in the case of simultaneously speaking robots, can significantly improve the retrieval of presented information in human subjects. Both male and female subjects performed significantly better with a female voice in a noisy background. Contrarily, when a female voice was used, a lower pitch resulted in significantly better memory in participants than a higher pitch. when a male voice was used, a higher pitch resulted in significantly better memory performance than a lower pitch. The results indicate that the pitch and gender of the speaking voice do indeed affect our memory of the presented information. In this study, we investigated whether manipulating the pitch and gender of the robot’s voice could affect human subjects’ memory of the presented information in the presence of background noise. Hence, presenting a piece of information in two different languages at the same time by the robot creates an adverse listening condition for both individuals listening to the speech of such a bilingual robot. However, the negative effect of background noise on speech comprehension in humans is well-established. A social robot capable of presenting a piece of information in more than one language at the same time to its audience is the goal of this line of study. The high cost of hiring human attendants fluent in several languages makes using social robots a more affordable alternative in international gatherings. As a result, the need for communicative agents fluent in several languages to assist those people is highlighted. With fast and reliable international transportation, more people with different language backgrounds can interact now. The implications of such a simultaneously speaking robot are discussed. However, this positive effect could not be attributed merely to the time expansion, as we could not repeat the same positive effect in a time-expanded single-talker speech.ĭiscussion: The results obtained in this study suggest a facilitating effect of the presence of the background speech in a simultaneously speaking bilingual robot provided that both languages are presented in a time-expanded manner. More interestingly, participants got a higher score in the time-expanded multi-talker speech than in the standard-speed single-talker speech in the speech comprehension and, in the sentence recognition task. Results: The obtained results suggest that a reduced speech rate, leading to an expansion in the speech time, in addition to increased pause duration in both the target and background speeches can lead to statistically significant improvement in both sentence recognition, and speech comprehension of participants. Sentence recognition, speech comprehension, and subjective evaluation tasks were implemented in the study. Methods: To improve speech comprehension and consequently, user experience in the intended bilingual robot, the effect of time expansion on speech comprehension in a multi-talker speech scenario was investigated. Hence, the presence of speech as the background noise in a simultaneously speaking bilingual robot can be fatal for the speech comprehension of each person listening to the robot. This deteriorating effect is more highlighted when the background noise has speech-like properties. However, the negative effect of background noise on speech comprehension is well-documented in previous works. Introduction: In this study, the development of a social robot, capable of giving speech simultaneously in more than one language was in mind. This is one of Vitry’s most widely transmitted motets, surviving in at least ten sources and cited as an example in the ars vetus et nova treatise complex. I was invited to contribute an analytical case study and after some deliberation (so many motets, so little time) I decided to write about Philippe de Vitry’s Colla iugo subdere/ Bona condit cetera. This summer saw the publication by Boydell and Brewer of the very attractive Critical Companion to Medieval Motets edited by Jared Hartt.

Continue reading → Posted in History and Historiography | Tagged medieval people, Petrarch, Philippe de Vitry | 3 Replies I am a “materia” girl I’ve always been suspicious of such claims for reasons that are probably obvious from my tone here, and from the more concrete data from my realm of music history: We know that Vitry died at 70 and we think that Machaut lived into his late 70s Ockeghem and Du Fay lived a long time too. If you are like me, you’ve often heard it asserted that medieval people were considered old by age 40, or 50, or some other age that makes us feel healthy and superior compared to our feeble distant ancestors. Now Vitry was born in 1291, and was already 58 years old when Petrarch lashed out. Anyway, in the course of berating Viry for this crazy and self-indulgent thing he’d written, Petrarch complained that Vitry was getting old-not physically, mind, but mentally: “videris… michi, vir egregie, non tam corpore quam animo senuisse” (you seem to me… to have aged not so much in body as in mind). The details don’t matter for present purposes, though I’ll get into them in the book. In 1350 Petrarch wrote a letter to Philippe de Vitry, a composer about whom I’m currently writing a book, complaining about something Vitry had said in a letter to another dude, which letter Petrarch had seen. 1340 in a copy of the Roman de la Rose, Morgan Library MS M.503, fol. 3 (forthcoming), pre-print freely available here.

Then you add the remaining three dice numbers to get a total score which you then assign to one of the stats mentioned above.ĭo this for every stat, and remember to write it down on your character sheet. So, how do you go about this? Well, first you roll four d6 dice, and then you remove the lowest number out of those four. These stats all contribute to a character in different ways, and the most common way to determine how much in each stat you have is to roll for it with a die. The basic stats of a character in DnD are Strength, Constitution, Intelligence, Dexterity, Charisma, and Wisdom. It shapes a character’s skill set, personality, and how they play the game. You might also like: How Many Dice Should You Have In DnD? How Do You Roll For Stats In DnD?Ī character’s stats are arguably the most fundamental part of DnD. Before you roll, you set a number that you must beat for a given action, then you try to roll that number or higher.Įvery number on a d20 has a 5% likelihood of hitting, and I would say that the d20 probably is the most used dice in all of DnD. The d20 is used for a lot of things in DnD, namely attacks, skill and ability checks, and initiative among other things. So what do you actually use the d20, the dice which the DnD system is named after, for? Let’s get into it. The class with the highest amount of health is the Barbarian, and the race with the highest health is the Hill Dwarf. ![]() Realistically, however, there are not a lot of characters with that much HP. How much health your character has depends in large on what class you’re playing!Īt level 20, the most health a character could possibly have is around 550, if you roll for stats and have some perks that give you health. There isn’t a required amount of HP, and there isn’t a specific recommended amount either. You might also like: The Complete Guide On How To Start Playing D&D How Much Health Should A Level 20 Character Have? If you want more details on this topic, you can find it in the Player’s Handbook. ![]() Let’s just say that some players like to roll for fun and roleplay purposes, while other players like to take the average because of the more even results it gets you. There is a choice to be made here, do you roll your dice or do you take the average of it? This is a somewhat complicated topic and I won’t be going in too deep into it here. Usually, tankier classes get “better” dice.įor example, the Fighter gets 1d10 per level while Warlocks get 1d8. As I touched on before, when you level up, you either roll your hit die or take the average of it + your constitution modifier. Let’s talk a bit about how the different dice work with the different classes. This means that if you had +1 in constitution modifier up to level 4, but at that level, you got +2, you apply the +2 modifier to levels 1, 2, and 3 as well. Something to note here is that if your constitution modifier increases as a result of you leveling up and getting more constitution, your new constitution modifier applies to previous levels as well. For example, if you have 12 in constitution, you receive a +1 to your constitution modifier, and the more constitution, the more the modifier increases. It’s a bonus modifier that contributes to your maximum health, based on your constitution, which is a base stat. I mentioned earlier that calculating your increase in health per level and your starting health on level 1 depends on your constitution modifier. Sometimes DMs like to give some leeway to their PCs when dying, based on what led to the death, for example, if the PC was incredibly unlucky or something to that effect. Your maximum hitpoints are the most amount of damage points you can take before you hit 0. Health is usually called hitpoints (HP) in DnD.
