![]() While baseball is clearly the sport where Benetti is most known, he has plenty of reps in college football. (The White Sox were kept abreast of Benetti’s negotiations with Fox.) (Benetti’s ESPN contract concludes at the end of August.) Benetti has not officially signed a new contract with the White Sox that extends beyond this year but said he feels confident he’ll be with the team for some time. He said he left the negotiations to his agent, Gideon Cohen of Excel Sports Management. It’s yet another excellent play-by-play hire by Fox Sports, which now employs Benetti, Adam Amin and Joe Davis as under-40 former ESPN-ers turned Fox Sports callers.īenetti said he did not have a direct conversation with Fox Sports officials ( credit Jeff Agrest of the Chicago Sun-Times for being out in front here) until he officially signed the deal. Benetti declined comment on the length of his Fox Sports contract, but sources said it’s in the four-year range. He’s also been the lead caller this season on Peacock’s Sunday package of MLB games (Benetti was in Toronto on Sunday to call the Blue Jays-Tigers game).īut the Fox Sports deal will bring his work to a much broader sports audience. ![]() Chicago baseball fans know Benetti’s work as the television voice of the White Sox on NBC Sports Chicago. It’s a significant part of who he is, of course, as is what’s coming next for him professionally. It’s a whole different level than just like, ‘Hey, we took a chance on you and then you grew within us.’ To have somebody say, ‘We want you,’ it’s amazing and a beautiful thing in my heart.”īenetti’s personal journey has been told before, and I recommend this CBS Sunday Morning piece where he talks about his cerebral palsy, surgeries and years of physical therapy. It’s really important to me personally to have a network want me as a free agent. So, at 38 years old, to have a network want to be in a deal with me, plus, a Major League Baseball team, everybody wishes everything happened at age 21, but sometimes things take a little longer for people to understand me and who I am. “I don’t even think about it in terms of hurdles, but I do know that people didn’t immediately say, ‘Let’s put him on TV’ when I walked into the room. ![]() I’m very proud of the idea that I and the people behind me made something cool out of something that by default didn’t belong on television by American standards. Micah Fowler from the ABC show ‘Speechless’ is about a kid with CP. There’s RJ Mitte from ‘Breaking Bad.’ Marlee Matlin has had an amazing acting career. To know that I found a front-facing career while having a disability, there are not many of us on television. That’s not what this is about, but my psychology is always intertwined with that. People don’t like it when people make it about that or play that card. “There is nothing in the Fox release about me having a disability, but that is always firmly intertwined in who I am,” said Benetti, who has cerebral palsy. If you have heard Benetti’s playcalling - and certainly anyone from Chicago knows full well what I am talking about - you know he is the real deal as a game broadcaster. The hire is a great moment for the business because it’s one totally based on the work. His assignments will include college football, college basketball and Major League Baseball. Last week, Fox Sports officially announced that Benetti had joined the company beginning with college football this fall. TORONTO - He is one of baseball’s best play-by-play callers - maybe the best - but on a sleepy Sunday morning in Toronto, Jason Benetti went unrecognized as he discussed his career in the lobby of a downtown Toronto hotel.

Bohemian Rhapsody is a movie that consciously tries to position a gay man at its center while strategically disengaging with the “gay” part as much as it can, flitting briefly over his emotional and sexual experiences and fixating on his platonic relationship with an ex-girlfriend instead. The result is far more hurtful than your average unconsciously homophobic film. (In reality, Mercury received his diagnosis in 1987.) What it really wants to be is a Queen concert, and what it really wants Freddie Mercury to be is a rock god instead of a real, queer human man. The film is no more conscious of Freddie Mercury’s reality than his Queen bandmates are in that scene, because it isn’t trying to be a biopic about Mercury’s life. The film almost portrays Mercury as a fully aware part of that exchange it almost makes a connection between the forced isolation of Mercury’s life and the marginalization of queer people at large.īut ultimately, it fails to do either. This moment is one of several in Bohemian Rhapsody that almost gives you a glimpse of the profound paradoxes of gay life before and during the AIDS crisis, when queer culture, subversive and life-embracing, built itself triumphantly at the edges of a society that refused to legitimize queer identity even as it gleefully exploited queer entertainers like Freddie Mercury. Freddie Mercury’s reality, in 1985, was one in which “ People just vanished, and everyone was in some kind of panic.” For Mercury, there was only one “it”: AIDS.īut the other members of Queen had no idea what he was talking about. ![]() “It” has been stalking his community, stealing away people he loves, constantly reminding him of his mortality. “It” has been looming over Mercury’s life for years. Though Bohemian Rhapsody spends most of its runtime paying lip service to the idea that Queen is a sort of dysfunctional misfit family, in that moment, the distance between Mercury and his bandmates is undisguisable. It arrives at the end of the film - July 1985, in the film’s historically inaccurate timeline - when Mercury (Rami Malek) decides to tell the other members of Queen the truth about himself shortly before the biggest concert of their lives. The most telling moment in Bohemian Rhapsody, the Golden Globe-winning Queen biopic that occasionally stops singing to zoom in on its ostensible subject, Freddie Mercury, is almost certainly an accidental one. ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s a good time for console role-playing games coming to PC, as it was announced yesterday that Bravely Default 2 would launch on Steam next week. Now it’s in English, and soon it’s going to be on PC, so you can do what Toby Fox from 2010 could not. He acknowledged the game in 2017 on Twitter, but noted that he actually never played Moon, because it was only available in Japanese. It is worth noting that while Toby Fox quoted Moon as an inspiration for Undertale, it was only a description of the game that inspired him. It is a “one-button insta-death action-kissing game that refines and builds on a mini-game that can first be played in Moon, now with a romantic twist.” In a recent VICE Games interview, Moon scenario writer and. Onion Games has also released a Steam page for their next release, Mon Amour. If you’re enjoying Moon: Remix RPG Adventure ’s newly released Switch port, you probably have Undertale creator Toby Fox to thank. Moon: Remix RPG Adventure has no announced price or release date yet, but there are more details and screenshots on the Steam page. The translation was done by game journalist and developer Tim Rogers. The influential 1997 game will come to the eShop on August 27. Love-de-Lic closed in 2000, but some employees, including Yoshiro Kimura, founded Onion Games and have since released unusual games such as Dandy Dungeon and Million Onion Hotel.ħ s success, Moon finally got an English translation for a Switch release last year. Legendary anti-RPG Moon: Remix RPG Adventure will finally come West for the Nintendo Switch. It was released on the original PlayStation, to some critically acclaimed but not much commercial success. Moon was originally developed by Love-de-Lic, a Japanese studio formed by former Square Enix RPG developers who had worked on Super Mario RPG and Romancing SaGa. Now Moon is on its way to PC for the first time, a year after it was translated into English. Sounds familiar? That’s because Moon was one of the inspirations for Undertale, Toby Fox’s successful indie RPG. Moon: Remix RPG Adventure was originally released in 1997 in Japan, and is an “anti-RPG.” You play as a young boy who is sucked into a fantasy land where a traditional “hero” has ransacked the villagers’ cupboards and killed innocent monsters, and you grow in power by saving the souls of the same creatures and “rising up by loving”. ![]() ![]() Reset Package Caches: Trigger a re-install of your existing Package dependencies w/ same versions.We can use three options, as shown in the image above depending on our use case: These options trigger a new checkout into DerivedData: Xcode now has nice options within the IDE itself to resolve Swift Packages.

Captive born animals start out as slightly more flighty as hatchlings, but with handling and age they tend to get away from this behavior. In wild caught individuals they can be prone to biting and are somewhat nervous. This is a very large species that does well in captivity. ![]() In the wild they feed on small lizards, small snakes, nestling birds with the bulk of the diet being rodents.

For fluoro-substituted phenylalanine the resolution was increased in order of 4-, 3- and 2-substituted one. Bromo- or chloro-substituted phenylalanine tended to show higher resolution than fluoro-substituted one. The resolution of 4-bromophenylalanine was 2.37 at pH 4.5, however, this value was increased to 3.35 at pH 3.0. The enantiomeric resolution was increased when the pH of the mobile phase decreased or hydrogen of amino acid was substituted with halogen. The enantioseparation performance was discussed and structure-chiral separation relationship were tried to be explained. (-)-18-Crown-6-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid bonded on the silica was used as the chiral stationary phase and methanol/Tris-citric acid (20 mM, pH 3.0-4.5) (20:80, v/v) was used as mobile phase. A second motivation for writing this review is to make a clear statement about the state of the art, the tools we have at our disposal, and what is still missing to fully understand the mechanisms underlying enantioselective recognition.Ĭapillary electrochromatography was employed for enantioseparation of α-amino acids and their derivatives. A specific focus is devoted to enantioselection in chromatography and electromigration techniques because of their unique feature as “multistep” processes. With the primary aim of discussing this topic in an integrated way, a comprehensive pool of rational and systematic multidisciplinary information is provided, which concerns the fundamentals of chirality, a description of noncovalent interactions, and their implications in enantioselective processes occurring in different contexts. This review has been conceived with theĪwareness that a modern attitude toward molecular chirality and its consequences needs to be founded on multidisciplinary approaches to disclose the molecular basis of essential enantioselective phenomena in the domain of chemical, physical, and life sciences. Physical, biological, and other natural sciences. Thread of a fascinating story which goes across several disciplines of medical, chemical, Thus, noncovalent interactions represent the narrative Noncovalent interactivity between chiral molecules underlies enantioselective recognition as a fundamental phenomenon It is not a coincidence that both chirality and noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in nature and synthetic molecular systems. The conformational landscape of 18c6H4 is found to be governed by bowl-like structures sustained by various types of H-bonding arrangements of the carboxylic side chains with each other and with the central crown ether ring. The experimental results are combined with a computational conformational survey and structure optimization at the B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,2p) level. The investigation covers a broad range of wavenumbers (800–4000 cm−1) and focuses particularly on the O–H, C–H, CO and C–O stretching modes and on the C–O–H bending mode, which yield the most intense IR and VCD signals. ![]() ![]() Infrared and vibrational circular dichroism spectroscopies are employed to characterize the vibrational modes of the 18c6H4 molecule in a low polarity solvent (CDCl3). Herein we report a study of the most stable conformers of the chiral crown ether (all-S)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid (18c6H4), which constitutes a key building block for materials in asymmetric catalysis and enantiomeric separation. The results indicate that this new type of DGT has the potential to improve the accuracy of predictions of the K status of soils, although more tests using a wider range of plant species and soils are necessary. Prediction of plant K concentrations with DGT were similar to those with ammonium acetate extractions over a range of typical agricultural soils with sandy and sandy loam textures. It proved suitable for the measurement of K under conditions similar to those usually found in soil if a 2-h deployment time was used and the labile K concentration was limited to 400 mu M. ![]() The DGT device contained a binding layer based on Amberlite IRP-69 cation exchange resin. We set out to develop a DGT device suitable for the measurement of K in soil and test its ability to predict plant available K. Up until now, however, the DGT devices available have not been suitable for measuring K. Diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT), which determines the diffusive supply of elements, has been shown to accurately measure plant available elements in several cases. However, correlation between extracted K and plant uptake is often poor, especially over a range of different soil textures. Ammonium acetate extraction is often used to predict the potassium status of soils. Potassium is an essential plant nutrient often limiting plant productivity. ![]() ![]() Being digital and direct-to-consumer, Winc generates real-time feedback based on sales data and social media interactions that help it evaluate performance. ![]() “A lot of people love wine, and we’ve been able to deliver on that for a variety of different demographics,” Lindsey Knowles, vice president of marketing at Winc, told CO. Customers can also add bottles to their orders, and, by purchasing four or more bottles, earn free shipping. Wines are suggested for subscribers based on their responses to Winc’s “Palate Profile Quiz” - a survey that helps Winc discern consumers’ likely wine preferences - and their ratings of past purchases. Subscriptions start at $39, plus $9 for shipping, to receive three bottles of wine each month. The company sources its grapes from all over the world, and then oversees the production itself, mostly from facilities in California. The direct-to-consumer brand makes all of its products, “from grapes to glass,” owning the production, branding and distribution. Rather than buying third-party wines and reselling them, Winc makes its own wines and markets them under its own brands. The Los Angeles-based subscription wine club, which was founded in 2012, differentiates itself from other wine subscription box services through the vertical management of its wine production. Winc is seeking to enhance the wine-buying experience by applying consumer feedback and other variables to its winemaking and marketing processes. Winc’s strategy of tailoring wine selections to customer preferences and its wide assortment of wine offerings attracts both new wine buyers and seasoned ones. |
