37320399	Accommodation bridge	https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Accommodation%20bridge	Accommodation bridge Accommodation bridge An accommodation bridge or occupation bridge in the United Kingdom preserves a pre-existing private road, path or right of access when a major transport route is built across it. Without the bridge, access would be disrupted. Accommodation bridges are usually built at the cost of the route developer, as part of the conditions for obtaining the land for building the new route. The term is not applied where the new route crosses an existing public highway. # Canals. The first accommodation bridges were built as part of 18th-century canal building. Most were provided for farmers, whose lands and grazing were separated by the canal. The first canals developed from rivers,	6,131,602

The river represented a long-established and accepted boundary, but these new sections were resented by landlords. Unlike turnpike roads, drovers could not simply cross the new road but now needed a bridge. These bridges also needed to meet the standards of the canal builder, allowing the towpath through beneath, sufficient clearance for passing boats and being adequately constructed to be robust, without risk of a collapse blocking the canal. To save costs, the Kennet Navigation, in flat country, used swing bridges rather than arches, Other canals such as the Oxford Canal, also used lifting bridges. # Railways. Most	6,131,603
37320399	Accommodation bridge	https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Accommodation%20bridge	Accommodation bridge accommodation bridges, in the UK at least, were constructed during the railway building boom of the mid-19th century. British practice avoided level crossings wherever possible, except in the flat parts of the country where building a raised approach to a bridge would be more costly. Nevertheless the term is still more usually applied to canal bridges. As the load carried by the new railway was almost always greater than the old path, nearly all accommodation bridges are overbridges, carrying the old track over the new railway. Underpasses were relatively rare, except where more convenient in hilly country, as the old track may have followed the land more closely than a gradient-sensitive railway. In	6,131,604

To date, Oh Look Out has released two full-length albums, and is described as "Catchy indie rock/pop with waves of fuzzy guitars and Casio keyboards that hit your brain like an Atari blasting out of a jambox bazooka." # History. In 2011, following five years of writing and performing with the band Built By Snow lead singer and songwriter JP Pfertner started releasing home recordings with hand drawn art under the name "Oh Look Out." The first release in fall 2011, "Alright Alright Alright Alright Alright" is a collection of songs selected from recordings made in his bedroom/makeshift	6,131,607
37320434	Oh Look Out	https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oh%20Look%20Out	Oh Look Out studio. The result was a mix of energetic indie rock/pop songs, drawing on inspiration from The Cars, The Rentals, and DEVO, as well as melancholy keyboard pop songs that draw comparisons to the bedroom recording legend, Daniel Johnston. The day after "Alright Alright Alright Alright Alright" was released, JP pulled out some small amps and guitars, an old drum kit, a cassette tape recorder, a battery powered Casiotone keyboard, and began recording a new album in his garage. These recordings became the second Oh Look Out album, titled "Orchestrated Fuzz." Released in Fall 2012, Orchestrated Fuzz is 9 songs that all connect together with waves of crunchy guitars, punchy keys, big drums and lyrics	6,131,608

The film documents the two benefit concerts that were organised by George Harrison and Ravi Shankar to raise funds for refugees of the Bangladesh Liberation War, and were held on Sunday, 1 August 1971 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. As well as notable performances from Harrison and Shankar, the film includes "main performer" contributions from Harrison's fellow ex-Beatle Ringo Starr, Billy Preston and Leon Russell, and a surprise walk-on from Bob Dylan. Other contributing musicians include Ali Akbar Khan, Eric Clapton, the band Badfinger, Klaus Voormann, Jesse Ed Davis,	6,131,630

The film was the final part of Harrison's "pioneering" aid project for the people of former East Pakistan, following his "Bangla Desh" charity single, the UNICEF benefit concerts, and a triple live album of the event credited to "George Harrison and Friends". "The Concert for Bangladesh" was produced by The Beatles' Apple Films; after delays caused by problems with inadequate footage from the event, it opened in US cinemas in the spring of 1972. The film was released on DVD in 2005 accompanied by a newly created documentary feature, "The Concert for Bangladesh Revisited with George Harrison and Friends", which included recollections from many of the project's participants	6,131,631

As with the live album, sales of the DVD release of the film continue to benefit the George Harrison Fund for UNICEF. # Production. Saul Swimmer's "Concert for Bangladesh" documentary combined footage from both of the Madison Square Garden shows held on 1 August 1971, using George Harrison's preference of the performances of the songs. Harrison later explained that much of the concert footage was unusable, as a camera on the right-hand side of the venue was faulty and out of focus throughout, while the one opposite, down the left side, had cables hanging	6,131,632

The compromised quality would result in some brutal edits in the released movie – Eric Clapton, for instance, appears to change jackets and guitar part-way through a song (Leon Russell's medley in particular). In an interview accompanying the 2005 DVD release of the film, Swimmer would cite the audio syncing and the frame-by-frame conversion to 70mm format (from the original 16mm) as other challenging, labour-intensive tasks. With work almost completed on the "Concert for Bangladesh" live album, Harrison is said to have begun editing the footage on 6 September; at some stage during the next few months, he was joined in this lengthy process by Bob Dylan.

The opening of the movie features footage from the New York press conference, held at Allen Klein's ABKCO offices five days before the concerts, during which Harrison and Ravi Shankar discuss the upcoming shows. Harrison is asked by a reporter: "With all the enormous problems in the world, how did you happen to choose this one to do something about?" "Because I was asked by a friend if I would help, you know – that's all," is his reply. The scene then shifts to inside Madison Square Garden,	6,131,634

In voiceover, Harrison provides a brief explanation of how the project came together. The concert begins with Harrison taking to the stage alone and addressing the audience, his comment "We've got a good show lined up – well, I hope so anyway ..." alluding to the speed with which the event was organised. He then introduces the first group of musicians, led by Shankar, who, like Harrison, attempts to convey the intricacies of Indian classical music to the audience, as well as outlining the reason for this "special benefit concert". Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan proceed to tune their instruments and then stop after about 90 seconds.	6,131,635

The four musicians then launch into a fifteen-minute dhun. A brief interlude ensues, consisting of behind-the-scenes footage that shows Phil Spector, Harrison and other performers making their way to the stage. Harrison starts off the rock portion of the concert with a string of songs from his hit album "All Things Must Pass". He is backed by a large band, including two drummers, Ringo Starr and Jim Keltner, pianist Leon Russell, organist Billy Preston, Klaus Voormann on bass,	6,131,636

Harrison then turns the concert over to his friends briefly. Towards the end of Billy Preston's song, "That's the Way God Planned It", Preston gets up from his stool and dances across the stage and back again – much to Harrison's delight. (Like most of the concert visuals and audio, this footage is taken from the evening performance on 1 August.) Starr sings his hit song "It Don't Come Easy" and appears flustered as he forgets some	6,131,637

Harrison then returns to the spotlight for two of his own numbers, the second being "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", at the end of which Clapton clearly struggles on lead guitar next to Harrison's more measured soloing. Before this, Harrison pauses for a few minutes to introduce the many musicians around him, and to his own amazement misses out one of the key performers so far – "We've forgotten Billy Preston!" he declares eventually. With a slight change in personnel, Russell delivers a rock and roll medley, before Harrison performs an intimate version of another Beatles-era song, "Here Comes the Sun". Harrison now introduces a newcomer to the stage, as Bob Dylan appears for a	6,131,638

Two more numbers from Harrison close the show. When he apparently forgets part of the second verse in "Something", he looks around, seemingly at Russell or Clapton, and grins his way through it. The film concludes with a spirited version of Harrison's then-current single, "Bangla Desh", intercut at first with footage of the suffering refugees the concert was aiming to provide aid for. Towards the end of the song, Harrison exits the stage while the rest of the band plays on. # Performances in the film.
