One was intercepted at a Los Angeles mail facility. Though the FBI did not initially include her on a list of targeted individuals, the bureau later said two packages addressed to her and similar to the five others had been found. Waters, whom the President has denigrated as a "low-IQ individual," reported on Wednesday afternoon that she was the target of a suspicious package. O'Neill said in an appearance on CNN that he was "pretty sure those images will be caught on video, and we'll be able to find out where that person came from before they entered the building and where they went to after". New York City Police Commissioner James O'Neill says investigators are reviewing security video to see if they can identify a courier believed to have delivered the pipe bomb package to CNN's office. The powder was tested and determined to have been harmless, according to a law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. The package sent to CNN contained a live explosive, with wires and a black pipe, and an envelope with white powder, officials said. "Unfortunately, I think Donald Trump, too often, has helped to incite some of these feelings of anger, if not violence, when he points to acts of violence or also talks about swinging at somebody from the press, the media," Brennan said. Speaking at an event in Austin, Texas, Brennan called the spate of pipe bombs "a very unfortunate turn of events," particularly if he and others are being targeted for their public comments. Unfortunately, I think Donald Trump, too often, has helped to incite some of these feelings of anger, if not violence Former CIA Director John Brennan The CNN package was addressed to former CIA director John Brennan, who has publicly clashed with Trump and is a regular television contributor. She is the former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee who was accused by Clinton rivals of secretly helping the party's eventual presidential nominee.Ī police bomb squad removed another from CNN's New York office, which was evacuated. Law enforcement officials said all the packages were similar: manila envelopes with bubble-wrap interior bearing six stamps and the return address of Wasserman Schultz. They noted the President's recent praise of a GOP congressman who bodyslammed a reporter, among other Trump statements. But Democratic Senate and House leaders Chuck Schumer of New York and Nancy Pelosi of California said such words "ring hollow" when coming from Trump. "Acts or threats of political violence have no place in the United States," Trump said. The White House condemned the attacks aimed at Democrats and other perceived foes of the administration. Later on Wednesday, the FBI said two additional packages addressed for Maxine Waters had been intercepted that were similar in appearance to five others. Getting buttons to light up in interesting and more creative ways, such as using multiple colors to display various states, is a powerful trick you need to know. In my opinion the ‘Controller Range’ and ‘Midi Range’ are the main things you need to understand, as these tell Traktor and the LED how to interact with each other.ĭespite the name, this is Traktors side of the equation. This is usually the same note that the button sends out, so map it to something or use a midi-monitor software like midi-pipe. One REALLY ANNOYING THING IN TRAKTOR PRO THAT SHOULD BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY, is the fact that you can’t ‘learn’ midi-out to a button, so you have to know what note the LED receives on and then manually select it from the list. You then insert the event that will trigger the message, like ‘Play/Pause’ in the image above, assign it to a button, and voila – when play/pause is active, the button will light up. These are midi-out mappings, and in Traktor Pro you can add one by clicking the ‘Add Out’ button. Some buttons light up on their own when pressed, but most need to get a message from the software that says: “HEY BUTTON DUDE, something just happened, quick – light up!” The button will stay lit until the software sends another message along the lines of “OK, everything’s over now, you can go home.” You, the grand midi-mapping maestro, get to determine what events send those messages to the buttons. In this article, Brad Cousins will show you how to control the LEDs on your controller using Traktor Pro, and will provide several excellent examples of how to use this technique, including how to show cue point states with multicolored buttons. This involves understanding the second, lesser-known side of midi-mapping – sending midi OUT messages from the computer to your controller. You probably have discovered that although it is easy to map a button to anything in Traktor, it is a bit more challenging to make the button light up in a meaningful way. These days, with the controller market expanding rapidly, most DJs are aware of the concept and have dabbled with a custom mapping here or there.

The Athletic's John Hollinger, on the other hand, said he would be "shocked" if Murray isn't suspended. UPROXX Sports' Brad Rowland said he believed there was a "non-zero chance" Murray could be suspended but that he was more likely to be fined. The Hawks were vocal about their displeasure regarding several calls throughout the night, including a flagrant-1 foul called on Trae Young as Boston's Jayson Tatum drove to the net. Still, as previously mentioned, Atlanta should only entertain deals where they would be getting at least a comparable piece to Murray in return, and there probably aren’t many of those suiters out there.Murray put up 23 points and nine rebounds in Atlanta's loss. It’s true that Murray was underwhelming-at-best on defense this season, where Hawks fans had hoped the former All-Defensive team member would provide a significant boost that never came to fruition. As enticing as an array of young pieces or three-and-D wings may sound, Atlanta would quickly find themselves in the same position they were in last year against Miami, where defensive-minded teams would thoroughly expose their lack of a true second option. At this point, it’s unlikely that Atlanta could bring back a player as good as or better than Murray in the immediate future. The answer depends on what they could get back. So should the Hawks really be interested in trading away Murray? In that Boston series, Game 3 gave fans a glimpse of what the best version of Young and Murray might look like, with one making the defense pay for overloading on the other throughout the fourth quarter en route to an Atlanta win. Head coach Nate McMillan, with whom Young had some highly publicized issues, was dismissed shortly after the All-Star break and replaced with the offensively-minded Quin Snyder, who encouraged the team to hike up more threes and inspired a respectable effort in the first-round loss to the Boston Celtics. Strides were made throughout the season to try to fix the Atlanta Hawks LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant, and Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant come to mind.Īs good as Young and Murray may be, they are not anywhere close to that level, which made the clear lack of game planning to establish synergy between them so frustrating. In reality, there are only a few duos throughout the history of the NBA that are talented enough to take turns going one-on-one against whoever was in front of them. Instead, what Atlanta Hawks fans watched was a your-turn, my-turn style of offense that produced some highlight plays but also led to the inconsistency that plagued so much of this season. Few plays were run that featured both of them in the action, and although they put up respectable stats, it was painfully apparent that they weren’t bringing out the best in each other or covering for each other’s weaknesses. In a season filled with turbulence and defined by mediocrity, Young and Murray failed to establish any kind of cohesion that you see among the game’s best backcourts. The former all-star’s first year in Atlanta wasn’t terrible by any means, but it was a far cry from the lofty ambitions Hawks fans had in mind when the news broke that Trae Young was finally getting some legitimate backcourt help. Murray was acquired from the San Antonio Spurs last summer in exchange for future first-round picks and pick swaps along with power forward Danilo Gallinari, who now plays for the Boston Celtics. A deleted tweet from Murray himself that I can only believe had to do with this rumor. It's an ancient civil rights story about liberation and justice, of one man speaking truth to power, and of a God who desires for people to be free and equal. The Exodus narrative ironically has something to say about this. And this needs to happen before movies are made, not after they are released. Instead, we should see Exodus as an opportunity to begin engaging major studios in vibrant, ongoing conversations about race. But protests don't always work, and we need more lasting change. There is even an ongoing Twitter protest, accompanied by a number of hashtags, such as #boycottexodusmovie. Some potential movie watchers have responded to Scott's whitewashed cast by calling for a boycott of the film. "When God always seems to be on the side - or with - the white characters in Biblical representations then we can't imagine God having different racial sensibilities." "In these Biblical stories, God isn't absent and God takes a side," Blum says. As a friend of mine who is African-American told me, he assumed as a child that Jesus was "the white man's God." When these stories are whitewashed, it creates unnecessary distance between people of color and important spiritual stories, and worse, between minorities and God. "The 'truth' in these representations is that white is coded good, heroic, and godly, and dark is coded evil, wrong, or wicked." They are seen by many as reflections of truth," says Edward Blum, a professor at San Diego State University and author of The Color of Christ: The Son of God and the Saga of Race in America. "Biblical stories are more than just stories. As Alex Abad-Santos of Vox commented, "That means they're more likely to become big stars, making it even harder for non-white actors to take those lead roles and become big stars themselves." According to a 2011 study by UCLA's Bunche Center for African-American Studies, white actors are cast in approximately 90 percent of lead roles of theatrical films. To be fair, Hollywood's race problem is endemic and not limited to Bible films. The insensitivity in Scott's comments and assertion that a movie's viability depends solely on casting it with famous white people is depressing, if not disturbing. Scott told Variety that he never considered the matter of race because he simply could not have financed the film if he had cast "Mohammed so-and-so from such-and-such" in it. Here's the real answer to that question: Hollywood does not believe people of color are lucrative enough. Why is progressive Hollywood so allergic to casting people of color in Bible films? Noah's screenwriter explained his all-white cast by saying that the movie was "mythical." Apparently, every fantasy land is inhabited by Caucasians with pristine, high-caste British accents. The film was taken, in part, from footage from History Channel's The Bible series, which featured a mostly Caucasian cast, except for the role of Samson, a raging brute with a weakness for pretty white girls. Son of God (2014) cast the Portuguese Diogo Morgado as Jesus and the Irish Roma Downey as Mary. Noah cast Australian Russell Crowe as Noah, American Jennifer Connelly as Noah's wife, Welshman Anthony Hopkins as Noah's father, American Logan Lerman and British Douglas Booth as Noah's sons, and Briton Emma Watson as Noah's daughter-in-law. The Nativity Story (2006) cast Australian-born New Zealander Keisha Castle-Hughes as Mary. King of Kings (1961) cast American Jeffrey Hunter as Jesus and Irish actress Siobhan McKenna as Mary. Surely Hollywood's sensitivity to ethnicity has changed in the last half-century, right? DeMille's The Ten Commandments." It starred a fake-baked Charlton Heston. The last time a live-action Moses appeared on the silver screen was in Cecil B. Whitewashing Bible films is something of a Hollywood tradition spanning decades, and it won't change until audiences demand better. They are, however, historically inaccurate and, frankly, inexcusable for a film in 2014. We can't claim that Scott's casting decisions were pernicious. (Exceptions may include smaller roles for Ben Kingsley, a Brit with an Indian father, and John Turturro, an Italian-American.) The Independent adds that black and ethnic minorities do appear in the cast as "Ramses servant," "Egyptian thief," and "Egyptian Lower Class Civilian." Vanity Fair notes that most of the actors of color who have been cast were relegated to nameless roles. Since he replaced the door, I have had no problems. However, they are not saying anything publicly, which is a shame. Clearly, there are many people with this issue and LG is finally realizing the problem. He said that he wasn't sure what was causing the problem, but that replacing those parts seem to be stopping the problem. I was worried he was going to blow me off like the first one, but he immediately said he needed to replace the left side door along with some some parts that go to the ice maker. They sent out an actual LG repairman who works directly for LG. This continued to be a problem for the past two years, and I finally filed a claim with my extended warranty company that I purchased through the place I bought the fridge. The LG repairman came out and said it was normal and left. Right after I bought it, I filed a claim with LG. That is why this issue is specific to LG refrigerators and not other brands. There is something going on within the door and ice maker. But manual explains in detail.īut I would order some air filters and water filters to have on hand for replacement. Flushing it for water and you need to throw out the first few batches of ice. If you no longer have the physical manual you can google online and download one.Įdit: If it is only 9 months old and you have never used the water or ice dispenser you filter should probably be fine? Just follow the instructions in the manual on first use of water/ice. I haven't noticed it since changing my water filter.Īfter getting the water filter follow the instructions on flushing the system(running many cups of water at certain intervals) again the instructions was in the manual. I also read somewhere when I experienced white residue from when my icecubes melted in my glass that someone said it is magnesium from the water. We bought some replacement ones from Amazon that were LG compatible that were much less expensive and work great. Your manual will tell you the filter that you need. We have and LG fridge as well and you need to replace the water filters every 6 months.

Corridor 3 is open for pedestrian traffic.” Corridor 2 and the Metro entrance remains closed. The lockdown has since been lifted, the agency announced later Tuesday, tweeting: “The Pentagon has lifted the lock down and has reopened. The “shooting event” occurred on the bus platform on the Pentagon complex and prompted a lockdown of the building with no personnel allowed outside, according to a message that was sent to the Pentagon workforce by the Pentagon Force Protection Agency. Kusse also said, after being pressed multiple times by reporters, that law enforcement is “not actively looking for another suspect at this time.” While Kusse acknowledged there were several injuries, he would not say whether anyone was killed in the incident. “Gunfire was exchanged and there were several casualties,” he said. The men and women of MPD offer our condolences, thoughts, and prayers to PFPA for their loss and to the officer’s family and friends,” it said.Ĭhief Woodrow Kusse did tell reporters during the briefing that an officer was attacked on a bus platform outside the building and that the incident was over, with “no continuing threat” to the area. “Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the line of duty death of a officer during today’s tragic events at the Pentagon. The Metropolitan Police Department, which is the primary law enforcement agency for Washington, DC, also tweeted a statement Tuesday offering condolences for the fallen officer. But later Tuesday, a defense official familiar with the initial reports said the officer was stabbed by an assailant and other officers responded rapidly and shot the suspect. Two law enforcement sources previously told CNN that an officer had been shot during the incident. Speaking to reporters, Pentagon Force Protection Agency Chief Woodrow Kusse repeatedly declined to provide substantive details about what occurred and would not confirm or deny reports that an officer had died, citing an ongoing investigation. The exact circumstances of the shooting incident are still unclear and Pentagon officials offered little clarity during a press briefing earlier Tuesday afternoon. Additional info on the officer will be forthcoming, following full next of kin notification,” it said. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Officer’s family. “The Pentagon Force Protection Agency mourns the tragic loss of a Pentagon Police Officer killed during this morning’s incident at the Pentagon. The Pentagon Force Protection Agency, which oversees the security of the Pentagon, confirmed the officer’s death in a tweet late Tuesday, hours after reports first surfaced.

Therefore, we chose to use Mumble over all of the other VoIP applications out there. These two disadvantages are fairly minor, as Mumble does not take up much space on a computer and only a small minority of people has a computer that cannot multitask well today. Some people will not be able to run it because their computers can’t handle running anything more than system processes, TF2, and Steam at the same time.I should also take this time to highlight the disadvantages: You don’t need to have a contact/friends list to communicate.Ability to talk with your team outside of the game (It’s important for you to talk to your team outside of TF2 it doesn’t even have to be about TF2!).Lower latency (This can be the difference between life and death in some cases, like if you’re playing medic and there is a spy behind you you need all the time you can get to react to your teammates’ warnings.).It is used throughout the TF2 competitive community (both Highlander and 6v6) so you should get used to it, as I don’t see this changing anytime soon since Mumble has many advantages over other VoIP programs.Īt this point, you may be asking yourself, “Why not use Skype, Teamspeak, Ventrilo, or even the in-game chat?” Here are some reasons why we have chosen Mumble over those: Don’t know what Mumble is? Well, it’s “an open source, low-latency, high quality voice chat software primarily intended for use while gaming” (from the Mumble website). So I’m sure you’ve heard about this “Mumble” thing if you’re reading this, and I assume you also already know a little about competitive TF2. |
