Fans Get Backstage Pass to Arcade Fire with the Reflektor Tapes in Cineplex Theatres FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Fans get backstage pass to Arcade Fire with The Reflektor Tapes in Cineplex Theatres Cineplex’s Music at the Movies series continues with Arcade Fire, Roger Waters docs, and live performances from Eric Clapton and The Who. TORONTO, ON – August 27, 2015 – Canadian indie-rock legends Arcade Fire are playing at a Cineplex theatre near you when the all-access documentary The Reflektor Tapes hits the big screen on September 23, 2015, after its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. In support of Reflektor, Arcade Fire’s acclaimed fourth album, the Grammy-winning Canadian band toured the globe, selling out stadiums and headlining major music festivals including Coachella and Glastonbury. Now, fans can experience first-hand what it’s like to go on tour with the band. The Reflektor Tapes takes audiences into the hearts and minds of Arcade Fire, one of today’s most renowned and influential bands. From Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winning director Kahlil Joseph (Until The Quiet Comes), the film charts the band’s creative journey from Jamaica, where they laid the foundation for their Reflektor album, to arena shows in Los Angeles and London via an impromptu performance in a Haitian hotel. “Arcade Fire is one of today’s most respected and critically-acclaimed rock bands, making The Reflektor Tapes a great addition to our Music at the Movies series,” said Pat Marshall, Vice President, Communications and Investor Relations, Cineplex Entertainment. “We’re proud to present Canadian movie-goers with the opportunity to see this documentary about such a well-loved homegrown band.” The Reflektor Tapes will screen as part of Cineplex Front Row Centre Events on September 23, 2015, with a second showing in Cineplex theatres on September 28, 2015.

The film, recorded in May 2015, captures the raw intensity of this momentous night, from intimate beginnings to epic finale. Audiences will experience classic songs and fan favourites from throughout his career. Roger Waters The Wall September 29, 2015 Encore: September 30 and October 1, 2015 Roger Waters, the co-founder and primary songwriter of the iconic rock group Pink Floyd, fuses the epic and the personal in Roger Waters The Wall. Written and directed by Waters and Sean Evans, and filmed during Waters’ sold-out 2010–2013 The Wall Live tour, the concert film goes well beyond the stage, giving audiences a visceral sense of being present and experiencing the performances in a way that not even the best seat or backstage pass could afford.

Katie Petts said that she would compare Spangler to someone like Jack Sparrow. “She’s the odd character that everyone loves,” Petts said. But, frankly, not everyone loves Spangler. Some make statements such as, “She’s off in her own little world singing songs.

BALLS, BATS AND BEYOND All kinds of writers – journalists included – will often go on at length about the value of telling stories. At The Uniter, we have the specific goal of telling stories that aren’t being told in larger media outlets. Through this small campus and community weekly, we hope to open up small windows into places, people and events that often go unseen in Winnipeg and beyond. Through telling these stories, we want to open up a new way of looking at the world around us, and imagine possibilities for change. We ask: why are things the way they are, and how could they be different? This issue is no exception. Tales of unexpected connections between strangers, like those showcased in a photo exhibit about Albanian Muslims helping Jews during the Holocaust, remind us of the value of compassion.

  • BILLIE Ein Film Von James Erskine
    BILLIE Ein Film von James Erskine 96 Minuten / Scope / Grossbritannien Kinostart am 24. Dezember 2020 Im Verleih von Praesens-Film VERLEIH PRESSE Praesens-Film AG Pro Film GmbH Münchhaldenstrasse 10 Olivier Goetschi 8008 Zürich [email protected] [email protected] +41 44 325 35 24 +41 44 422 38 32 SYNOPSIS Ihre ungewöhnliche Stimme und ihre Lieder voll emotionaler Strahlkraft machten sie weltberühmt: Jahrzehnte vor der #BackLivesMatter-Bewegung lieferte Billie Holiday mit ihrem Song „Strange Fruit“ den Soundtrack für die Bürgerrechtsbewegung der amerikanischen People of Colour. Eine selbstbewusste Frau, die mehr war als ein tragisches Opfer von Drogen- und Machtmissbrauch. Als erste schwarze Frau in einer weißen Band machte sich Billie Holiday frei von Stereotypen und entwickelte eine sehr eigenwillige, unverwechselbare Vokaltechnik, durch die sie ihre Stimme wie ein Instrument zum Klingen brachte. In den späten 1960er Jahren gelang es der Journalistin Linda Lipnack Kuehl, für ihre geplante Biographie über die amerikanische Jazz-Legende mit Grössen der Szene wie Charles Mingus, Tony Bennett und Count Basie ins Gespräch zu kommen. Darüber hinaus interviewte Kuehl enge Weggefährten von Billie Holiday wie ihren Cousin und Schulfreunde sowie einen FBI-Agenten, der die Diva einst verhaftete. Die ganze Wahrheit über die Sängerin konnte die engagierte Journalistin jedoch nie veröffentlichen: Denn Lipnack Kuehl starb in den 1970er Jahren unter ebenso tragischen Umständen, wie ihr Idol Billie Holiday im Jahre 1959. In seinem Dokumentarfilm BILLIE verknüpft der britische Regisseur James Erskine aufwändig restauriertes Archivmaterial und die bisher ungehörten Tonbandaufnahmen von Linda Kuehl mit den Aufzeichnungen der wichtigsten Bühnenauftritte von Billie Holiday. Zum ersten Mal sieht man „Lady Day“ hier in Farbe.

  • Dissertation Submitted to the Combined Faculties for the Natural
    Dissertation submitted to the Combined Faculties for the Natural Sciences and for Mathematics of the Ruperto-Carola University of Heidelberg, Germany for the degree of Doctor of Natural Sciences presented by Dipl. Phys. Johann Peter Peiffer born in Bremen. Oral examination: July 25, 2007 Liquid argon as active shielding and coolant for bare germanium detectors A novel background suppression method for the G erda 0vj3j3 experiment Referees: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Hampel Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Kratschmer Abstract Two of the most important open questions in particle physics are whether neutrinos are their own anti-particles (Majorana particles) as required by most extensions of the Standard Model and the absolute values of the neutrino masses. The neutrinoless double beta (0iy/3/3) decay, which can be investigated using 76Ge (a double beta isotope), is the most sensitive probe for these properties. There is a claim for an evidence for the 0v/3/3 decay in the Heidelberg-Moscow (HdM) 76Ge experiment by a part of the HdM collaboration. The new 76Ge experiment G erda aims to check this claim within one year with 15 kg y of statistics in Phase I at a background level of <10"2 events/(kg-keV-y) and to go to higher sensitivity with 100 kg y of statistics in Phase II at a background level of <10"3 events/(kg keV y). In GERDA bare germanium semiconductor detectors (enriched in 76Ge) will be operated in liquid argon (LAr). LAr serves as cryogenic coolant and as high purity shielding against external background. To reach the background level for Phase II, new methods are required to suppress the cosmogenic background of the diodes.
