  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • Improving CVC Video Tape Trasfer Quality
    Improving CVC Video Recording Transfer Quality Leo Backman/DigiOmmel & Co. DigiOmmel & Co. was recently commissioned to digitize a batch of obsolete CVC® video tape recordings. The recordings date back to mid-1980s. For this project, we rejuvenated our CVC machine stock, and modified our primary transfer VCRs to provide optimal replay signal stability and quality. An Y/C component video output was added to improve the luminance and chrominance signal transfer at capture stage. Compact Video Cassette format was developed by Funai Electric Trading Co., LTD., sponsored by Technicolor Corporation. CVC units, made by Funai, were marketed under various OEM brands such as Canon, Chinon, Grundig, Saba, Siemens, Uher and Universum (Quelle). Grundig, however, modified the original CVC format by lowering the tape speed in their model VP100, to achieve an extended recording time. Short CVC history The CVC format parameters for CCIR/PAL video signal were finalized in October 1981. In fact, CVC was the first small cassette, consumer-grade, color-capable VCR on the market, making it a rival format to portable stand-alone Beta and VHS recorders. CVC video signal encoding format is very similar to VHS; all the Y/C signal recording and playback processes can be carried out by a standard VHS video chip set (Hitachi). CVC’s more modern feature is a dynamic (level-dependent) pre-emphasis in luminance signal process, as opposed to a fixed pre- emphasis of the VHS format (Fig. 1). Figure 1. The CVC format employs dynamic high-frequency luminance pre-emphasis, while VHS format uses a fixed pre-emphasis.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT Jewish humor is a well-known, if ill-defined genre. The prevalence and success of Jewish comedians has been a point of pride for American Jews throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. What I undertake in this dissertation is to isolate one particular form of humor—namely satire—and use it as a way to analyze the changing relationship of American Jews to traditional religious forms. I look at the trends over three generations, the third generation (who came of age in the 40s and 50s), the Baby Boom generation (who came of age in the 60s and 70s) and the contemporary generation (who came of age in the 80s and 90s). When the satire produced by each generation is analyzed with the depiction of Judaism and Jewish practices in mind a certain pattern emerges. By then reading that pattern through Bill Brown’s Thing Theory it becomes possible to talk about the motivations for and effects of the change over time in a new way.
