Film (Persian:فیلم) is an Iranian film review magazine published for more than 30 years. The head-editor is Massoud Mehrabi.
Film is a 1965 film written by Samuel Beckett, his only screenplay. It was commissioned by Barney Rosset of Grove Press. Writing began on 5 April 1963 with a first draft completed within four days. A second draft was produced by 22 May and a forty-leaf shooting script followed thereafter. It was filmed in New York in July 1964.
Beckett’s original choice for the lead – referred to only as “O” – was Charlie Chaplin, but his script never reached him. Both Beckett and the director Alan Schneider were interested in Zero Mostel and Jack MacGowran. However, the former was unavailable and the latter, who accepted at first, became unavailable due to his role in a "Hollywood epic." Beckett then suggested Buster Keaton. Schneider promptly flew to Los Angeles and persuaded Keaton to accept the role along with "a handsome fee for less than three weeks' work."James Karen, who was to have a small part in the film, also encouraged Schneider to contact Keaton.
The filmed version differs from Beckett's original script but with his approval since he was on set all the time, this being his only visit to the United States. The script printed in Collected Shorter Plays of Samuel Beckett (Faber and Faber, 1984) states:
In fluid dynamics, lubrication theory describes the flow of fluids (liquids or gases) in a geometry in which one dimension is significantly smaller than the others. An example is the flow above air hockey tables, where the thickness of the air layer beneath the puck is much smaller than the dimensions of the puck itself.
Internal flows are those where the fluid is fully bounded. Internal flow lubrication theory has many industrial applications because of its role in the design of fluid bearings. Here a key goal of lubrication theory is to determine the pressure distribution in the fluid volume, and hence the forces on the bearing components. The working fluid in this case is often termed a lubricant.
Free film lubrication theory is concerned with the case in which one of the surfaces containing the fluid is a free surface. In that case the position of the free surface is itself unknown, and one goal of lubrication theory is then to determine this. Surface tension may then be significant, or even dominant. Issues of wetting and dewetting then arise. For very thin films (thickness less than one micrometre), additional intermolecular forces, such as Van der Waals forces or disjoining forces, may become significant.
Bon Voyage is a musical group consisting of the duo Jason Martin, of Starflyer 59, and his wife, Julie.
The duo first appeared in 1995 when they released Issue 1, a 7" recording on Jeff Cloud's record label Velvet Blue Music. They appeared again in 1996 when they released a follow up 7", Issue 2.
By 1998, Bon Voyage had signed on to BEC Records to release their first CD, entitled Bon Voyage.
The group dropped off until 2002 when Tooth & Nail Records released The Right Amount. The group worked with Tooth & Nail again to release their 2008 album Lies.
"Lies" is an R&B song by Japanese singer Kumi Koda and is the fifth single in her 12 Singles Collection. The lyrics are written by her and the music is written and arranged by Yanagiman. The song is the ending theme of Asahi TV's show アドレな!ガレッジ (Adore na! GAREJJI). It was also used in a commercial for music.jp.
Like most of the singles in the 12 Single Collection, Lies is also limited to 50,000 copies. The single made its debut on Oricon at #7 and managed to take the #5 rank the following week. With the song taking the debut of #7, Koda Kumi became the first artist to have three singles in the top 10 on Oricon at the same time (you was at #9 and Shake It Up was at #6).
The love interest in the music video is played by actor Shogen Itokazu, who is best known for his role as young Gouken in Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist and his work in the 2015 Death Note TV series.
As with the other 11 singles in this collection, the cover of the single represents a stylized version of a traditional dress from a culture; this time it draws its inspiration from China.
Lies is a village on Terschelling in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It has a population of around 165.
