Bangingon bins, slurping up noodles and making machines chuckle - Parv Thind, partner and sound engineer at Wave Studios, has created some of the weirdest and most wonderful sounds in advertising. Although as Selena Schleh finds out, in an increasingly noisy world, it seems silence can be golden.

True to Thai advertising form, this engagingly batty campaign for the online insurance brand is short on logic, but big on fun in its depiction of the tenuous link between conflict resolution and large hopping marsupials.


The environmental organisation tugs on our heartstrings with a moving film highlighting the detrimental effects of deforestation on the country's beloved wildlife. Photoplay director Dropbear explains how he and his team skilfully combined CGI, 3D printing, and traditional stop-motion techniques to bring this touching story to life.


In a powerful and reflective short film created by Strike for the 40th anniversary of AIDES, an association supporting those living with HIV/AIDS, director Ariela Dorf highlights a moving concept that many HIV patients couldn't have imagined 40 years ago - aging. While many of us grapple to reverse its effects, these characters think there's nothing more beautiful...

The gunman who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania fired eight bullets in under six seconds before he was shot and killed by a U.S. Secret Service sniper, according to an analysis of footage from the event by two audio experts, video analysis by CBS News and sworn statements from Pennsylvania State Police.


The gunman, identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, killed one rally attendee and injured two others when he opened fire from a roof near the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13. A bullet also grazed Trump's ear, creating a 2-cm-wide wound, according to Rep. Ronny Jackson, Trump's former White House physician.


In testimony on Tuesday at a House Committee on Homeland Security hearing about the assassination attempt, Pennsylvania State Police Col. Christopher L. Paris told lawmakers that eight casings were recovered from the gunman's location.


Video and audio analysis from the shooting indicates the gunman fired eight shots. Audio experts Rob Maher of Montana State University and Steven Beck of Beck Audio Forensics told CBS News they identified 10 gunshots from the recordings of the event. The first eight rounds had similar acoustic characteristics and originated from the same location. Beck said these eight discharges, fired in approximately 5.2 seconds, were consistent with the AR-15-style rifle the shooter used.


The final two gunshots were likely from law enforcement and came from two different firearms in two different locations, the audio analysis indicates. The first of these two gunshots was fired approximately 5.5 seconds after the gunman opened fire, Beck said. The gunman stopped firing immediately, indicating this bullet hit him. A final shot was fired 10 seconds later.


CBS News analysis of social media footage showed that one of the rally attendees injured in the shooting, David Dutch, fell to the floor of the bleachers after the second gunshot was fired. Another injured attendee, James Copenhaver, fell to the ground as the fourth to eighth gunshot was fired.


On Tuesday, Kimberly Cheatle resigned from her position as director of the U.S. Secret Service after facing a bipartisan grilling on Capitol Hill on Monday. President Biden thanked Cheatle for her decades of public service in a White House statement.


Several investigations into the circumstances surrounding the shooting are underway. In addition to the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security's inspector general has opened two probes to evaluate the Secret Service's process for securing an event and determine the preparedness level of the agency's Counter Sniper Team to respond to threats. Officials said the inspector general may decide to open additional investigations as well.


The next day, I was riding on a high and ready to consider a career as a juice shop mogul. I tried the Energy Elixir, a greenish-brown potion advertising to up your mental clarity and alertness for day two of Shotsgiving. Seeing as stressed and tired can sometimes be my defaults, it felt like a fitting remedy. It was an herbal little mix, pleasantly grassy in a way that felt like rolling down a hill in the middle of spring. It didn't have that mouthful-of-lawn aftertaste like some shots I'd tried. And I actually did feel more alert afterwards. In all fairness, that energy boost could have been the gaggle of people swarming the mini fridge near my desk to try a juice. Either way, another point for juice.


On the fourth day, the Temple Turmeric Pure Prana Fire Shot with raw cider vinegar called to me. Because I am a fool, I answered it. It was a powerful splash of fire and acid and tang that felt like it was clawing its way down my throat with each glug. A few hours later, the shot returned to remind me and my bowels that it was still as fiery as ever.


The comment gave me peace. But, after a day off, I had a similar response to the Project Juice Liver Flush. I had to avoid contact with people who sit along my path to the bathroom (because yes, I am going to the bathroom again. And yes, I did just go. And yes, I will be back.) Frankly, I only had myself to blame. Juice: 3, Me: Yikes.


On my final day of the juice shot experiment, I took a tepid sip of the Immune Boost and was pleasantly surprised by the refreshing, dare I say enjoyable taste of orange, lemon, ginger, and cayenne. I braced for the stomach fits, but instead I spent the rest of the day on an energetic high. I craved greener things in an effort to preserve the high, and I ate more intentionally rather than getting caught up and forgetting to eat as I often do.


And, for me, that was the secret to wellness shots overall. They made me listen to my body in ways I often forget to. I re-assessed my diet with precision, thought about what the stomach rumbles were trying to convey, and got (a little too) acquainted with my digestive system.
