"They say that when one door shuts another opens. And on the very night Grace died, ITV started, and immediately needed people with just exactly my experience to voice the commercials. And so I was able to make a good living from voice-overs for years."

Glenn Mulcaire 'acted under instructions' over voicemails

    Private investigator denies acting on his own as Sara Payne admits phone hacking link left her 'very distressed and upset'


在英國國會委員會下令要求梅鐸之子,同時也是明顯接班人詹姆斯.梅鐸(James Murdoch),針對上週竊聽醜聞的聽證答覆交出紙本說明之際,私家偵探穆爾凱爾(Glenn Mulcaire)打破沉默。
穆爾凱爾的律師發布聲明指出,表示他「衷心後悔」。穆爾凱爾與「世界新聞報」(News of the World)前王室新聞編輯古德曼(Clive Goodman)2007年同因竊聽案入獄服刑。
但他指出,他自2002年起就「實際受僱於」報社。
聲明寫道:「作為1名員工,穆爾凱爾依照他人指示行事。任何暗指他可能單方面進行這一切都非事實。」
2000-2003年擔任「世界新聞報」總編輯的麗貝卡.布魯克斯(Rebekah Brooks),與接她職務至2007年的柯爾遜(Andy Coulson),雙雙否認授權竊聽,也否認對屬下進行竊聽一事知情。



The Washington Post runs a Dan Balz analysis inside on what the move might mean for the Republican party: "The question now is whether Specter's departure will produce a period of genuine introspection by a party already in disarray or result in a circling of the wagons by those who think the GOP is better off without those whose views fall outside its conservative ideological boundaries," he writes. "Specter's shocking departure may provide a wake-up call to Republicans that a broad reassessment is urgently needed."



Introspect

Special Prospect supplement focusing on interiors every issue


“Katie and her friends were sitting in the back seat talking to each other about some movie star; I think it was Orlando Bloom,” recalled Mr. Hampton, whose company produced the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies, in which the actor starred. “I made some comment about him, I don’t remember exactly what, but I got the typical teenager guttural sigh and Katie rolled her eyes at me as if to say, ‘Oh Dad, you are so out of it.’ ”



On that spring morning in April, in black cotton slippers and socks that barely covered his ankles, Drucker seemed unusually frail and tired -- not at all in a mood to ponder his legacy. "I'm not very introspective," he protested in his familiar guttural baritone, thick with the accent of his native Austria. "I don't know. What I would say is I helped a few good people be effective in doing the right things."








Voice actors in Sierra Leonean radio soap opera Atunda Ayenda
Voice acting is the art of providing voices for animated characters (including those in feature films, television series, animated shorts, and video games) and radio and audio dramas and comedy, doing voice-overs in radio and television commercialsaudio dramasdubbed foreign language films, video gamespuppet shows, and amusement rides.
Performers are called voice actorsvoice actresses or voice artists, and may also involve singing, although a second voice actor is sometimes cast as the character's singing voice. Voice artists are also used to record the individual sample fragments played back by a computer in an automated announcement system. At its simplest, this is just a short phrase which is played back as necessary, e.g. the Mind the gap announcement introduced by London Underground in 1969. In a more complicated system such as a speaking clock, the voice artist doesn't actually record 1440 different announcements, one for each minute of the day, or even 60 (one for each minute of the hour), instead the announcement is re-assembled from fragments such as "minutes past" "eighteen" and "pm". For example, the word "twelve" can be used for both "Twelve O'Clock" and "Six Twelve". So far voice artists have been preferred to speech synthesis because they sound more natural to the listener.
