title: Thomas Stockton (judge)

text:
Thomas Stockton (1609–1674) was an English-born judge who held office in seventeenth-century Ireland.

Background

He was born at Cuddington Heath, Cheshire, the eldest son and heir of John Stockton (died 1643), who was Lord of the Manor of Cuddington, and his second wife Sarah. The Stockton family suffered heavily for their loyalty to the Crown during the English Civil War, but they recovered their estates after the Restoration of Charles II, when Thomas received high praise for his personal fidelity to the King, "having suffered much in his person and fortune for his fidelity and allegiance".The second son, Richard Stockton, left England during the English Civil War for the Colonies where he disembarked in New York which was in Dutch hands at the time. Richard Stockton was a signer of the Flushing Remonstrance, and Richard Stockton's great-grandson, another Richard, was the signer of the United States Declaration of Independence for New Jersey.

Career

He entered Gray's Inn in 1634 and became an Ancient of the Inn in 1658 (this was a position of prestige, ranking directly below the Readers of the Inn, and allowing the holder to practice law). He was called to the Bar in 1641. He went to Ireland in 1657, took up legal practice there and was admitted to the King's Inn. At the Restoration, his legal training together with his long and loyal service to the Crown made him an obvious choice for judicial office, and he was made third justice of the Court of King's Bench (Ireland). He went regularly on assize to Connaught and Ulster. Unlike many of his colleagues, he did not receive a knighthood.

He died in Dublin in 1674 and was buried in St. Michael's Church, Dublin; according to family tradition, his body was later reinterred in the family tomb at St Oswald's Church, Malpas, near his eldest son John.

Family

He married Ursula Bellot, daughter of John Bellot of Great Moreton Hall, Cheshire and his wife Ursula Bentley, and sister of Sir John Bellot, 1st Baronet of the Bellot Baronets; she died in 1664. They had at least three children: John (died 1700), who inherited his father's estates, Thomas (died 1720), and one daughter, also called Ursula.

The younger Ursula married firstly, as his third wife, her father's colleague Sir William Aston (died 1671), by whom she had one surviving son, Thomas. She married secondly Sir Charles Feilding, a younger son of George Feilding, 1st Earl of Desmond and Bridget Stanhope, and had two daughters by him. Her descendants through her son married into the Tichborne family, who had the title Baron Ferrard and inherited the impressive Tichborne estate at Beaulieu.

Ursula was said to have been left very well provided for on her first husband's death, with a jointure of £300 a year. Her stepson, William Aston junior, was hanged for the murder of one Mr. Keating, who he claimed had insulted his wife, in Dublin in 1686. The death sentence was carried out despite "great intercessions for mercy" having been made on his behalf by Ursula, and by certain prominent Protestants who argued that religious bias had influenced the verdict, as the victim was a Roman Catholic, although the Government insisted that the trial was scrupulously fair.

title: Try (Colbie Caillat song)

text:
"Try" is a song by American singer-songwriter Colbie Caillat from her fifth studio album, Gypsy Heart (2014). It was released on June 9, 2014 by Republic Records as the lead single from the album. The song was written by Caillat, Jason Reeves, Babyface and  Antonio Dixon and was produced by the latter two. Lyrically, the midtempo pop ballad is about not trying to be someone else to make others happy. It was written after a session where Caillat was feeling pressure to be someone she was not, both musically and image-wise. It received acclaim from music critics, who noted it was a simple, but beautiful empowering ballad.

The song charted moderately on the US Billboard Hot 100, while becoming her highest-charting single in five years in Australia and Canada. It also became a top 40 hit in Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. To promote the song, a lyric video including female fans and artists, such as Sheryl Crow, Sara Bareilles, Christina Perri and others, without any makeup on, to emphasize the song message, was released on June 10, 2014. Later, an official music video was released on July 8, 2014. It features the singer alongside a diverse set of women with makeup and wigs, while removing them throughout the video, ending it natural. It went viral over the internet, accumulating over 27 million views in almost two months. The song was certified platinum by the RIAA on March 20, 2015.

Background
After releasing her first Christmas album, Christmas in the Sand (2012), and contributing to the soundtrack of the 2013 film Safe Haven, with the song "We Both Know", a duet with Gavin DeGraw, Caillat recorded during the summer of 2013 a new album with a "’70s vibe" with producer John Shanks. It was set to be released in November 2013; however, after meeting up with Ryan Tedder, Caillat decided to record a more "pop, up-tempo dancey" album. Caillat also worked with record producer and songwriter Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds on the album, explaining, "We did four or five songs. I love him as a producer and writer. I just tell him any style that I’m in the mood for and we write it. It’s not like he’s pigeonholed in being an R&B producer. The first song we wrote together is a complete folk song that’s going to be on this record. It has a banjo on it! The next song is R&B-pop, and then the next one we did is completely a piano ballad, no harmonies — it’s really honest and vulnerable."

The synthpop-infused track "Hold On", produced by Tedder, was released as the album's lead single. However, the song failed to make an impact on the charts, and the album was postponed. Caillat and her label thought they should keep working and see if they got anything better. The response disappointed the singer, who was told to return to the studio to find a "new sound" for the album. "To be told that your work isn't good enough -- to do better, to be more like those pop artists out there that dress sexy and use Auto-tune on their voices -- to be compared to someone so different, it hurt," she claimed. Later, Caillat decided to release an EP, claiming that "12 songs is too much to listen to all at once. When I buy a record, I get to the fifth song, and then I don't get to really hear the rest of the record. People can listen to the first five songs, fall in love with them, get to know them, and then a few months later, have the rest of the record available for download." To promote the EP, "Gypsy Heart: Side A", "Try" was chosen to be its lead-single, being the iTunes Store single of the week from June 9 to June 16, 2014, and it would be officially released to Mainstream radio stations in early September. On October 21, 2014, the song was serviced to contemporary hit radio by Republic Records; a new "Uptempo Mix" will officially impact the format on January 13, 2015. This version was released to digital retailers on November 24, 2014 under the official name "Alex Ghenea Remix".

Composition and inspiration

"Try", a pop song, was written by Colbie Caillat, Antonio Dixon, Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds and Jason Reeves, while production was done by Babyface. It is written in the time signature of common time and is composed in the key of D major, with a moderately slow tempo of 70 beats per minute. Caillat's vocal range span from the low-note of A3 to the high-note of F5. As noted by Holly Williams of Contact Music, the song is "full of gently plucked acoustic guitar, twinkling synths and minimal piano that adds a pleasantly uplifting touch, while Colbie's vocals are soft, yet understated - almost as if she's inviting you to sing along with her." According to Billboard, "the song resulted from a 'venting experience' for Caillat, who translated her disappointment about her scrapped album into a message of self-love aimed at women." "Put your makeup on/ Get your nails done/ Curl your hair/ Run the extra mile/ Keep it slim so they like you, do they like you?" she sings in the beginning. "You don’t have to try so hard/ You don’t have to give it all away/ You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up/ You don’t have to change a single thing," she sings in the chorus.

In an interview for Elle, Caillat confessed that the idea for the song came after going into the recording studio with "Babyface", explaining that she told him that she was getting a lot of pressure to be someone she was not, both musically and image-wise. She claimed, "Although I don’t want to do it, I’m just going to make these people happy. He started laughing, and said, we’re not going to do that. That’s not you, and that’s ridiculous of them to ask. That right there gave me the creative freedom." He said, "Let’s write about exactly what they’re asking you to do — to change yourself." We started checking off all these things that all of us girls do everyday to get ready to go out. [...] So Babyface inspired me to write this and it's all from a personal experience." Caillat explained that, "This song is not to say that we should never wear makeup, but to say that, sometimes, it's okay not to." She further told People that, "[Edmonds and songwriters told me] you don't have to try to be someone else, because people like who you are."

Critical reception
"Try" earned critical acclaim from music critics. Jason Lipshut of Billboard called it an "empowering" track [...] to bestow young girls with a stronger sense of self-worth." Emileen Lindner of MTV News agreed, calling it "a super-empowering ballad." Holly Williams of Contact Music called it "a bright pop song with an admittedly overly simple melody, but the lyrics, though hackneyed and a little patronising, still have the desired effect. You can tell it's simply sung from the heart and, let's face it, Colbie doesn't even have to try." Marcus Floyd of Renowned for Sound wrote that Caillat "lyrically inspires once again with 'Try', a softer side to the release where you hear the rawness in her voice as she pleads you not to try to impress others and to just be yourself." Matt Collar of Allmusic chose the song as one of the highlights of the EP, while Markos Papadatos of Digital Journal wrote that the song "is inspirational, and it showcases her vulnerability as an artist, becom[ing] an anthem of female empowerment due to its optimistic lyrics."

Commercial performance
"Try" entered the US Billboard Hot 100 chart on the issue date of July 26, 2014, at number 69. It climbed to number 55 the following week, becoming its peak position. It is also her first entry on the Hot 100 since 2011's "Brighter Than the Sun". It also debuted inside of the Top 30 at the Adult Top 40 chart, peaking at number 15. It debuted at number 22 on the Adult Contemporary chart and peaked at number 4. The song also debuted at number 67 on the ARIA Singles Chart. In Denmark, it debuted and peaked at number 13, her second song to chart after "Bubbly" (2007), while in both Australia and Canada, the song became her highest-charting single in five years, peaking at numbers 67 and 56, respectively.

Music video

Lyric video

On June 10, 2014, Colbie uploaded a lyric video for the song on her YouTube page. It features Caillat, her fans and famous artists like Sheryl Crow, Miranda Lambert, Kelly Osbourne, Sara Bareilles, Ingrid Michaelson, Katharine McPhee, Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott, Natasha Bedingfield, Christina Perri, and Jessie J without makeup, in an effort to spread the message that beauty truly is on the inside. "I have a couple celebrity friends that would be more impactful for everyday people to see what we look like normally," she claimed during an appearance on NBC's Today.

Caillat commented for Elle Magazine that, When I did the lyric video for 'Try,' and I asked some of my celebrity friends if they would send a picture of themselves, you have no idea how difficult it was. Some of them said no, some of them said they’ll send me a picture in a couple of days because they have a pimple on their chin, and they didn’t want it showing in the picture. And I was like, no, no, no! That’s good! Let’s let all of our fans know that we get them too, because otherwise they’re just think that they’re the only ones who get acne. We all get it, so let’s just kind of laugh about it together. And then some of the girls still wore makeup in the pictures because they felt like they needed to at least look – I don’t know, in their eyes, decent or something when they still look beautiful. It was so hard for them to show any degree of realness.

Official video

The official music video premiered on July 8, 2014 on VEVO. According to Caillat, We shot the video in reverse, we started bare, and by the end we finished with the full hair and makeup, and then reversed the film for the finished product. All of the women were amazing. My favorite was the woman who has no hair. I first saw her completely bald, no makeup, with a huge smile, she was just so happy and confident. She was so beautiful to me. And then we kept getting more hair and makeup on, and the next scene I saw where she’s in full make-up and wig, I was like, Who is this woman? She was not the same person. She still looked beautiful but it wasn’t the same beauty that I saw when she was liberated, showing who she really was. When I shot the first scene with no hair and makeup on in front of an HD camera in my face, flashed with bright lights, everyone was watching. I thought, "Oh my god, I bet they’re all looking at my blemishes, thinking that I should cover them up, or that I should put some volume in my hair." But it also felt really cool to be on camera with zero on, like literally nothing on. And then when it got to the full hair and makeup, I actually felt gross. I was just so caked on.

Storyline and reception
As explained by Zakiya Jamal of People, "it begins by showing women from all different ages and backgrounds, including Caillat herself, wearing makeup, wigs, and fake eyelashes. As the video progresses the women remove their makeup, take off their wigs or shake out their hair, and let their natural beauty shine." As noted by Emilee Lindner of MTV News, at the end, "Caillat is looking smiley and seriously at the camera, singing the last lines, 'Don’t you like you? ‘Cause I like you.'" During its first week, the video went viral, accumulating over nine million views, surpassing the 20-million mark on YouTube/VEVO as of August 19, 2014. Robbie Daw of Idolator praised Colbie and the other women in the clip for "giv[ing] us one of the most quietly powerful visuals of the year so far." Bruna Nessif of E! Online claimed that the video "embraces natural beauty and embodies a massive amount of girl power in just four minutes." Lauren Valenti of Marie Claire wrote that "Caillat's bold experiment is a reminder that emancipating yourself from your beauty routine every  can set you free — yes, even in a world filled with unrealistic beauty ideals."

Live performances
Caillat had given an exclusive performance of "Try" to blogger Perez Hilton. Then she performed the track officially on Today, while also discussing the song and its music video. Later, she also performed the track on Live with Kelly and Michael (on June 9, 2014), The View (on August 12, 2014), and at the Young Hollywood Awards in addition to appearing on HLN, CBS This Morning and Extra. Later she performed at the Billboard Women Music Awards.

title: Newcastle (County Dublin barony)

text:
Newcastle () is a feudal title of nobility and one of the baronies of Ireland. It was constituted as part of the old county of Dublin. Today, it lies in the modern county of South Dublin. At the heart of the barony is the civil parish of the same name - Newcastle - which is one of eleven civil parishes in the barony. The ruins of the eponymous castle, also known as Newcastle-Lyons, are located in the townland of Newcastle South. The town with the biggest population in the barony is Lucan.

Location
It is one of seven and a half baronies that used to comprise the old county of Dublin. It stretches from the River Liffey to the Wicklow Mountains (from north to south) and from the border with County Kildare to Clondalkin and Palmerstown (from west to east). It is located between the baronies of Castleknock (north of the river), Uppercross (to the east) and South Salt, County Kildare (to the south and west). Apart from an exclave of the civil parish of Leixlip that lies beyond the river, the rest of the barony is contained within the modern county of South Dublin and it is subject to South Dublin County Council.

Legal context and history
Baronies were created after the Norman invasion of Ireland as subdivisions of counties and were used for administration. While baronies continue to be officially defined units, they are no longer used for many administrative purposes. They have been administratively obsolete since 1898. Nevertheless, they continue to be used in land registration and specification such as in planning permissions. In many cases, a barony corresponds to an earlier Gaelic túath which had submitted to the Crown. This is true of Newcastle, which at the time of its creation, was part of the túath of Ui Donnchad.
The Ui Donnchad, or sept the Mac Giolla Mocholmog, was also home to Vikings of Dublin (Dyflyn) who were allies and trading partners of the Chieftain Dermot Mac Giolla Mocholmog during the century period. Following the initial Hiberno-Norman policy of integration and assimilation, the descendants of this chief became the FitzDermots. Through grants and intermarriage, by the time of the shiring of County Dublin, Newcastle-Lyons was raised to the status of an Irish feudal barony. In 1627 a disputed claim to the barony led to tragedy when Edmond Butler, 3rd/13th Baron Dunboyne killed his rival James Prendergast; James' brother Edmond was recognised as baron, but later forfeited. It eventually came into the Newcomen family who secured succession in the seventeenth century. The village and castle bawn was fortified with walls and multiple tower houses. It later became a pocket borough until the Parliamentary Union of Dublin with Westminster in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in 1801. After the Union, and the famine, the Barony like Dublin City and County went into a long period of economic and population decline.

title: Dogger Bank Wind Farm

text:
Dogger Bank Wind Farm is a group of offshore wind farms under construction  off the east coast of Yorkshire, England in the North Sea. It is considered to be the world's largest offshore windfarm.
It was developed by the Forewind consortium, with three phases envisioned - first phase (Creyke Beck A and B), second phase (Teesside A and B) and third phase (Teesside C and D). In 2015 the third phase was abandoned, while the first and second phases were granted consent. It was initially expected that the Dogger Bank development will consist of four offshore wind farms, each with a capacity of up to 1.2 GW, creating a combined capacity of 4.8 GW. As of 2023, a total of 277 turbines are expected to be built and produce a capacity of 3.6 GW, enough to power 6 million homes.

Since 2017 Creyke Beck A and B and Teesside A are developed by Dogger Bank Wind Farm Limited as Dogger Bank A, B and C, while Teesside B is developed by Sofia Offshore Wind Farm Limited as Sofia Offshore Wind Farm. All four farms were successful in the 2019 contract for difference auction and have a delivery date between 2023 and 2025.

On October 10, 2023, the offshore wind farm started producing electricity for the first time.

Project overview
Dogger Bank is in the North Sea, located between  off the east coast of Yorkshire. It is one of nine offshore zones belonging to the Crown Estate which formed part of the third licence round for UK offshore wind farms.

The Dogger Bank is an attractive location for offshore wind farms because it is far away from shore, avoiding complaints about the visual impact of wind turbines, yet the water depth is shallow enough for traditional fixed foundation wind turbine designs.
Fixed-foundation wind turbines are economically limited to maximum water depths of , at greater water depths new floating wind turbine designs are required, which currently cost significantly more to build.

The Forewind consortium was formed by the four owner companies – SSE, RWE, Statoil and Statkraft – in November 2008 in response to the third licence round. In January 2010, Forewind was announced as the developer for the Dogger Bank Zone, the largest of the Round 3 zones. Statoil increases its share from Statkraft, beginning in 2017. In August 2017 new ownership arrangements were announced, SSE and Equinor (formerly Statoil) have each taken 50% share in Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A, B and Teesside A, while Innogy (RWE subsidiary) has taken Teesside B and renamed it to Sofia Offshore Wind Farm. Originally projected to produce up to 9 GW of power, the plan was scaled down to 7.2 GW in 2014, and scaled down even further to 4.8 GW in 2015. As of 2023, it is projected that Dogger Bank A, B and C will produce 3.6 GW of power. Some of the steel used is from Port Talbot Steelworks.

In 2022 it was announced that the Dogger Bank A, B & C wind farms would be expanded to add an additional wind farm Dogger Bank D.  Additionally the Crown Estate leased out a 3 GW zone named Dogger Bank South.

Final design and construction
As of November 2022 there are four zones in the Dogger Bank Wind Farm project that are either in the pre-construction or full construction phase.  They are Dogger Bank A, B & C as well as Sophia.

Dogger Bank A and B

The first phase was called Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A and B. The original plan called for two offshore wind farms each generating up to 1.2 GW of electricity, with a total installed capacity of up to 2.4 GW. They would connect to the existing Creyke Beck substation near Cottingham, in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The two sites lie  from the East Yorkshire coast. Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A will cover an area of , and Dogger Bank Creyke Beck B will cover an area of . Planning consent was granted for up to 400 turbines on 17 February 2015. These two projects were owned by SSE and Equinor, in December 2020 Eni acquired 20% stake. ABB was chosen for the HVDC power transfer cables to shore.

On 21 September 2020, it was announced that Dogger Bank A and B will use 190 GE Haliade-X 13 MW offshore wind turbines over both sites, meaning that 95 turbines will be used on each site. The availability of upgraded Haliade-X turbines rated at 13 MW rather than 12 MW means that each site will be capable of generating up to 1.235 GW, for a total of 2.47 GW. Turbines will be pre-assembled at Able Seaton Port in Hartlepool, an activity that will lead to the creation of 120 skilled jobs at the port during construction. Turbine installation commenced in August 2023 at Dogger Bank A. Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) for 15 years were signed in November 2020. Offshore cable laying started in April 2022. Installation of the turbine foundations was started in July 2022.

In April 2023, SSE announced that the world's first unmanned High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) substation had been installed at Dogger Bank A, with similar infrastructure to be completed for Dogger Bank B and C.

Dogger Bank C

Dogger Bank C will use GE Haliade 14 MW turbines. Installation of the turbines is set to begin in 2025 with completion of the overall project in 2026. Similar to Dogger Bank A&B, a 15-year Power Purchase Agreement was agreed in November 2021. All output (estimated at 18 TWh/year) from A, B and C were thus in contract, a stepping stone towards financing.

As a first for UK offshore wind, Dogger Bank C onshore converter station was among the winners of an auction to provide the cheapest options for reactive power to stabilize the grid and reduce grid cost. The converter will provide up to 200 megavolt amperes with a price of 0.34 £/MVAr/SP from April 2025 and ten years on.

Sofia
Sofia will use 100 Siemens Gamesa 14 MW turbines. Offshore construction is set to begin in 2023 with completion of the overall project in 2026. 44 turbines use recyclable blades made in Hull.

Potential additional zones
Dogger Bank D

SSE Renewables and Equinor are investigating the potential to increase the size of the Dogger Bank Wind Farm, which is currently under construction.  This additional phase will be known as Dogger Bank D. The grid has the capability to support up to 1320 MW.

Dogger Bank South

RWE is moving forward with two new offshore wind farms in the Dogger Bank area, Dogger Bank South West and Dogger Bank South East. Each will have a capacity of 1.5 GW generation. Following the Round 4 leasing process, RWE obtained approval from the UK Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to enter into an Agreement for Lease with The Crown Estate in summer 2022. .

Initial plans
This section provides the historical context for the development of the Dogger Bank Wind Farm and the various name and design changes that have occurred since it was first proposed.

Dogger Bank Teesside were intended to be the second and third stage of development of the Dogger Bank Zone. It was divided into two phases of development: Dogger Bank Teesside A & B and Dogger Bank Teesside C & D. These would connect to the National Grid at a substation in Redcar & Cleveland, Teesside.

Dogger Bank Teesside A & B comprised two wind farms, each generating up to 1.2 GW of electricity. Dogger Bank Teesside A lies  from the shore and will cover an area of . Dogger Bank Teesside B lies  from the shore and will cover an area of . Planning consent was granted for 400 turbines on 5 August 2015.  Since 2017 SSE and Equinor own Dogger Bank Teesside A (renamed to Dogger Bank C), while Dogger Bank Teesside B was taken by Innogy and renamed Sofia Offshore Wind Farm.

Dogger Bank Teesside C & D
This second application (C and D) was planned to comprise two wind farms, each generating up to 1.2 GW of electricity. It was originally expected that planning consent would be determined in 2017. However, in August 2015 Forewind scrapped the final phase and returned the remaining area of the Dogger Bank development zone to the Crown Estate.

North Sea Wind Power Hub
Dutch, German, and Danish electrical grid operators are cooperating in a project to build a North Sea Wind Power Hub complex on one or more artificial islands to be constructed on Dogger Bank as part of a European system for sustainable electricity. The power hub would interconnect the three national power grids with each other and with the Dogger Bank Wind Farm.

A study commissioned by Dutch electrical grid operator TenneT reported in February 2017 that as much as 110 gigawatts of wind energy generating capacity could ultimately be developed at the Dogger Bank location.

At the North Seas Energy Forum in Brussels on 23 March 2017, Energinet will sign a contract to work with the German and Dutch branches of TenneT; thereafter a feasibility study will be produced.

Battery storage
Adjacent to Creyke Beck substation for the wind farm, near Cottingham, the Pillswood 196 MWh battery storage power station was installed in 2022 using Tesla Megapack LFP batteries, capable of producing 98 MW for 2 hours.

Tall ad Dirrah (, also spelled Tell Dirrah, Tall Derah, Talldarra or Tell ad-Dura) is a Syrian village in the Salamiyah Subdistrict in Salamiyah District, located southeast of Hama. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Taldara had a population of 5,986 in the 2004 census. Its inhabitants are predominantly Ismailis.

History
Tall ad Dirrah was initially founded in 1836 when it was acquired by Muhammad Khurfan Bey, a chief of the Mawali tribe in the Hama region. Prior to that, the village had been vacated. Like other places in the Salamiyah area that the Ottoman authorities encouraged to be repopulated, the settlers of Taldara came from the Mawali, Nu'aym and Uqaydat tribes. However, just two years later, Taldara and all of the other villages of Salamiyah were reported to have been deserted.

Tall ad Dirrah was re-established in the late 19th century by Ismaili migrants from other parts of northern Syria who chose to settle the place because of worsening economic conditions in the interior parts of Syria, the low taxes that living in the Syrian Desert fringes offered, and the place's proximity to Salamiyah, the center of Ismaili life in Syria.

title: Alan Resnick

text:
Alan Resnick (born July 16, 1986) is an American comedian, visual artist, and filmmaker. He is a member of the Wham City arts collective and founding member of Wham City Comedy.

Work

Before working on Adult Swim, Resnick first gained recognition for creating the popular YouTube web series, alantutorial, in 2011. The surrealist comedy series initially began as a tutorial channel from a man attempting to instruct the viewer on nonsensical tasks. Over the course of three years, the series gained strong horror elements as the videos depicted Alan locked out of his house, left homeless, and kidnapped. In the final "tutorial" video, uploaded December 12, 2014, Alan breaks through a wall and escapes the building where he was being held. Gizmodo called Resnick's video "ARM tutorial" one of the "weirdest videos on the internet".

In 2012, Resnick self-published the book $8.95, a series of online customer service chats between Resnick and Bank of America in which Resnick pleads to recover his eponymous bank fee.
Also that year, Resnick directed the music video for Dan Deacon's "Guilford Avenue Bridge" and Lower Dens' "Candy".

In 2013, Resnick and fellow Wham City member Ben O'Brien created & directed the TV special Live Forever as You Are Now with Alan Resnick, pitched to Adult Swim. The short starred Resnick as himself, in a surreal parody of self-help infomercials, selling digital immortality. This was the duo's first collaboration with Adult Swim and premiered on the network's Infomercials block - premiering at 4:00 A.M., without a title card or common identifier. Despite this, it received positive acclaim and recognition for Wham City, being called "hilarious" and "a good representation of their bizarre comedic stylings."
 Principal photography for the infomercial was conducted in the Copycat Building during the summer of 2013.

In 2014, Resnick and O'Brien continued to work with Adult Swim's Infomercials, creating the horror short Unedited Footage of a Bear, a parody of allergy medication advertisements, and a veiled cautionary tale about antidepressant abuse, which slowly descends into chaos. The short gained the duo more popularity, and was called "the scariest TV show of 2014". Since launching that year, Resnick has been a contributing writer for The Onion'''s sister publication, ClickHole. Resnick also premiered a set of new media art pieces in collaboration with artist Lesser Gonzalez, at the Springsteen Gallery in Baltimore, MD.Woods, Baynard. "This Modern World: Two artists turn cultural detritus into high art", Baltimore, 4 August 2014, Retrieved on 1 October 2014.

In 2016, Adult Swim aired Resnick's third short film, This House Has People In It. The short film aired at 4:00 A.M. between March 14–19. The short itself consists of surveillance camera footage of a mundane suburban family that descends into surreal horror as the eldest daughter begins phasing through the kitchen floor, based on the found footage genre. Clues hidden throughout This House then direct viewers towards a fake security company website with additional surveillance material of the family and the paranormal events surrounding them, as well as a bootleg episode of a fictional TV show titled the  and its associated website run by the eponymous host (played by Resnick himself). The resulting alternate reality game explores many of the events leading up to and following This House with a total of over two hours' worth of video and audio files alongside numerous logs, images, and text documents.

Later in 2016, Resnick starred in IFC's webseries "The Mirror" as Wesley. In 2017, Resnick made an animated film for Super Deluxe called "Johnny Bubble", featuring the titular character in a series of odd events until he dies.

In 2018, his short film, May I Please Enter, was released. In 2020, his short What Codec Should I Use? was released. In 2021, he collaborated with Meow Wolf Denver to create the short film Mac and Cheese. In 2022, his latest short film Cool Blue Car was released as part of Adult Swim's smalls.

In 2022, he created a music video for I Didn't Know I Was Dead. by Negativland That same year, he co-directed (with Patti Harrison) the music video for Bicstan by Hudson Mohawke.

All his work on Adult Swim has been made in collaboration with Baltimore-based production company AB Video Solutions, LLC, (referenced within This House Has People In It as AB Surveillance Solutions) an offshoot of the Wham City arts collective. AB Video Solutions LLC'' is made up of Resnick, Ben O'Brien, Robby Rackleff, Cricket Arrison, and Dina Kelberman.

Personal life
Resnick lived in Baltimore for 10 years and is currently residing in Los Angeles. He is married to fellow artist Dina Kelberman.

title: SIG MPX

text:
The SIG MPX is a gas-operated submachine gun designed and manufactured by SIG Sauer, and is primarily chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum. It is a gas-operated firearm featuring a closed, rotating bolt. These design features, rare in submachine guns, were chosen to enhance the safety of the user and to have a more reliable firearm. It was designed in 2013 and was released to the general public in 2015. It features the SIG Sauer short stroke push-rod gas system to reduce the recoil and improve the reliability of the weapon.

The MPX, in its second generation, features a system that would allow for conversion from 9mm to .357 SIG or .40 S&W. However, since its inception, first party conversion kits have not been made available for either of the two production generations of the gun.

SIG Sauer also used the same gas piston system to develop the SIG MCX carbine.

Design details

The standard variant of the MPX comes with an 8.0 inch (20.3 cm) barrel and is chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum. It comes with a collapsible stock and a free-floating rail. It has a cyclic rate of fire of 850 rounds per minute (RPM).

The MPX is also available with different barrel lengths, ranging from 114 to 406mm (4.5- to 16-inch). The MPX submachine gun is only available for military and law enforcement use, while a semi-automatic only version is also available for the civilian market.

The semi-automatic version of the weapon can be registered as a short-barreled rifle in most states in the United States.

Features
The standard MPX submachine gun comes with no sights and a full-length Picatinny rail system on the top of the weapon. Gen 2 MPX's come with a flat faced Timney trigger and M-LOK rail.

The MPX has a short-stroke gas piston system in order to increase the accuracy of the weapon which operates from a closed bolt. It is designed in this way to prevent water or dirt from entering the chamber and causing malfunctions as well as to use a suppressor with greater ease. It features an ambidextrous selector switch for fully automatic (law enforcement/military models) and semi-automatic. It also features an ambidextrous bolt catch. The barrel is free-floating and is surrounded by polymer/steel Picatinny rail (later M-LOK) mounts.

The charging handle of the weapon is at the back of the weapon, based on the AR-15 design. This is to ensure that cocking the weapon does not interfere with any optics mounted onto the Picatinny rail. The weapon's rails are made out of cast steel and the standard weapon overall weighs .

Variants

Selective fire configurations

MPX (Standard variant)
A pistol variant with a three-position collapsible arm support with a stock-like appearance, three-position fire selector if it supports full automatic and an 14” blind pined and welded muzzle brake 16”, 8.0, 6.0 4.5 inch barrel.

A compact variant with a 114 mm (4.5 inch) barrel.

A fully suppressed variant with an MP5SD-like integral suppressor, a longer fore-end and a 203 mm (8.0 inch) barrel.

Semi-automatic only configurations

MPX Pistol (Pistol variant)
A semi-automatic only pistol variant with no stock and a 203 mm (8.0 inch) barrel.

MPX PSB (Pistol variant)
A semi-automatic only pistol variant with a SIG SBX pistol stabilizing brace and an 203 mm (8.0 inch) barrel. In the US in 2015 the BATFE warned users of weapons using SIG stabilizing braces that shouldering a weapon fitted with a brace constituted the making of a Title II NFA weapon, reversing a prior ruling that it did not. In early 2017, however, the BATFE withdrew this opinion.

MPX-K (Pistol variant)

A semi automatic only pistol variant with a 114 mm (4.5 inch) barrel.

MPX-C (Carbine variant)
A semi-automatic only carbine variant, featuring a 165 mm (6.5 inch) barrel with a 241 mm (9.5 inch) muzzle device permanently welded to it, which is actually a modified version of the baffle core of the integrally suppressed variant. SIG contended that this device was a muzzle brake, but in 2013 the BATFE ruled that the component was a suppressor, and classified the MPX-C as possessing an integral suppressor and thus as a Title II NFA weapon. The BATFE rejected an appeal against this ruling in February 2014; SIG responded by filing a civil lawsuit against the BATFE, alleging they had acted in an "arbitrary and capricious manner". In September 2015, Federal Judge Paul Barbadora upheld the BATFE's ruling.

As a result of this SIG has announced a carbine variant with a 406 mm (16 inch) barrel without the muzzle device, designated as the MPX PCC.
