“As long as you can still grab a breath, you fight. You breathe... keep breathing.”
The cinematography in The Revenant is consistently outstanding. A seat in the front row of the cinema will allow you the perfect vantage point to naturally crane your neck as most shots are captured very close to the ground and allow the lean elongated trees in Louisiana coppices to stretch up to the heavens above the cast. Birds symbolically watch over the landscape. Herds of animals flock around on demand. Trees shudder on demand. The clouds move beautifully as it choreographed with a computer mouse.
In what was publicised as a gritty shoot that stretched the resilience of the cast and crew, there are still a surprising number of special effects. At times The Revenant looks more like a hyper-reality video game than a movie with characters dropping all around during the half hourly visceral battles with their prolonged shots emphasising the blood and gore as much as the bravery and determination. (Though Macbeth would beat The Revenant if there was an Oscar for blood-spurting.) The totally unexpected stunt with the horse close to the two hour mark is breathtakingly brilliant.
“You all have stolen everything from us. Everything! The land. The animals.”
“I ain't afraid to die anymore. I'd done it already.”The Revenant is unbearably long. Each scene is allowed to stumble along with fifteen or so minutes as the next chapter of grisly survival conflict unfolds. Glass’ resurrection – a third of the way through the film, so that’s not much of a spoiler – is rather unbelievable, as is his avoidance of hypothermia. In the end DiCaprio plays a combination of Bond, Bourne and Bear Grylls that allows his body to be continually punished while he finds nutrition in lichen and animal carcasses to sustain him. Hardy plays Fitzpatrick more like a pirate than a hunter.
There’s no doubting the effort that went into the production: real blood, much sweat (and shivering) and plenty of tears. It might have been possible to overlook the absence of empathy built up with the audience if the film had been cut to ninety minutes. But as a 156 minute long slog, I can’t ignore the fact that director Alejandro González Iñárritu gave me no reason to care whether Glass lives or dies, and no reason to care whether Fitzgerald gets his comeuppance. I should be thankful that the final snowy manhunt wasn’t made into a second film.
A lot of people are going to love The Revenant. But be warned: by the end of this film your bladder will be bursting, your stomach rumbling and your fingernails noticeably longer. (Don’t combine those last two and bite your nails during the film!)
The Revenant is being screened in the QFT until Thursday 28 as well as Odeon, Omniplex, Moviehouse and numerous other cinemas!

New law seen as big win for aquatic environments
After years of studies showing how plastic microbeads are polluting streams, lakes and oceans, the U.S. is set to adopt a new law that will phase out the manufacture of plastic microbeads by July 1, 2017 and the sale of beauty products containing plastic microbeads by July 1, 2018.
Similar to California’s historic microbead ban signed into law earlier this year, the Microbead Free Waters Act (H.R. 1321) bans all plastic microbeads, including those made from so-called “biodegradable plastics,” the majority of which do not biodegrade in marine environments.
The law is a big win for the environment, where the microbeads have been found in birds, crabs and fish, making their way through the food chain.
One recent study found that up to 90 percent of all seabirds have ingested plastic microparticles. In Australia, researchers say that plastic pollution adds insult to injury for already stressed corals along the Great Barrier Reef. And the problem won’t disappear with a ban — the plastic particles are also building up in ocean sediments. Continue reading

Bass in and near wildlife refuges in the Northeastern U.S. are gender-confused.
Are endocrine disrupting chemicals to blame?
US Geological Survey researchers say they’re not 100 percent sure if endocrine-disrupting chemicals are to blame, but they’ve found that a full 85 percent of male smallmouth bass and 27 percent of male largemouth bass tested in waters in or near 19 National Wildlife Refuges in the Northeast U.S. were intersex.
Intersex is when one sex develops characteristics of the opposite sex. It is tied to the exposure of fish to endocrine-disrupting chemicals that can affect the reproductive system and cause the development of characteristics of the opposite sex, such as immature eggs in the testes of male fish.

Watchdogs offer suggestions to beef up regulation
After years of studies showing how pharmaceutical wastes are polluting streams and lakes, the EPA has finally proposed a modest rule to start curbing the contaminants.
A proposed rule published in August would create new standards for healthcare facilities (including pharmacies) and reverse distributors. According to the agency, the rule would prevent the flushing of more than 6,400 tons of hazardous waste pharmaceuticals annually by banning healthcare facilities from flushing hazardous waste pharmaceuticals down the sink and toilet.

Protecting water quality has climate benefits
Climate models may be significantly underestimating the amount of greenhouse gases produced by fresh water streams, researchers said in a new study released this week.
Published in the journal Ecological Monographs, the findings suggest that human disturbances on watersheds are a key factor in raising concentrations of methane, a particularly potent heat-trapping pollutant. Based on the research, the world’s rivers and streams pump about 10 times more methane into our atmosphere than previously estimated. Continue reading

3.9 million plastic items per square kilometer …

Given the fact that microplastic debris is so widespread, it’s probably no surprise that the Rhine — Europe’s workhorse river — has been found to be among the most polluted by plastic.
The Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan area has the highest concentration, at about 2,333,665 particles per square kilometer, with a peak at Rees on the Nederhijn, where 3.9 million plastic items per square kilometer (or 21,839 particles per 1000 cubic meters) were found in a single water sample. In general, extreme peaks may be reached after heavy rain or accidents. Continue reading

Traces of medicine in freshwater streams have a wide range of impacts on fish.
New study documents wide range of impacts
Fish exposed to remnant traces of medicines, including pain relievers, muscle relaxants and antidepressants, grow more slowly and have a harder time escaping predators, say scientists who carefully studied the effects of pharmaceutical pollutants.
The study analyzed effects from nine individual pharmaceuticals, as well as varying mixtures of these chemicals, on both juvenile and adult fathead minnows. It was conducted by the Aquatic Toxicology Laboratory at St. Cloud State University and the U.S. Geological Survey, with the findings published in a special edition of Environmental Toxicology & Chemistry.

Bayern score so many garbage goals, and I love it.
There are few things in life better than a team scoring a magnificent team-goal featuring a dozen passes or a player displaying a moment of individual brilliance in scoring. However, one of the things that is better than both of those is when Bayern combines to score one of their patented garbage goals. We were graced with two of them today. The first was credited as an own goal, but everyone knows that goal 100% belongs to Thomas Müller.
Persistence is the key but so is finding yourself in the right place at the right time as Sandro Wagner found out later. Müller’s shot was blocked but squeezed through the defense where Wagner was hanging out. A tap-in later, and Bayern officially crushed any hope of a Freiburg come back.
Sure, a beautifully orchestrated 22-pass sequence leading up to a goal is nice, but give me a ball finding it’s way into the net when you aren’t really quite sure how it got there any day of the week.
Müller is heating up.
Here’s a fact that every single person knows: Bayern Munich can win everything there is to win (and Germany for that matter) when Thomas Müller is at the top of his game. What did we see today against Freiburg? We saw a man slipping into space behind defenders, a normal Müller garbage goal, wreaking havoc along a backline, and a sublime finish. The big games are coming, and after a disastrous season under Carlo Ancelotti last year, it looks like Müller is ready to go under Jupp Heynckes.
Tolisso has a quick trigger, and that’s a good thing.
Every single time I see Corentin Tolisso take the field, I know there are people out there upset that he has never seen a shot that he didn’t like. But, that makes him appealing to me. One of the big things that I’ve always loved about Arturo Vidal in the middle of the park is that he will almost always rip a shot when he has a tiny bit of space. While that isn’t always the ideal situation, any shot on target from distance opens up the possibility of a rebound or, as we saw today, a scorcher that finds itself in the back of the net.
Keep shooting for the stars, Corentin.

|The unstoppable bull market of optimism & prosperity was only yesterday, but has been all but forgotten in this climate of uncertainty and war. To provide a framework to where we are, and where we are headed, a short piece on where we've been.|
|Introduction - Twilight of the Millenium, Dawn of Fear|
SEATTLE - 27 December 2001
|The late 1990's was the twilight of the illusion of endless economic growth, prosperity and peace for the world. It was a fanciful time, for the idea that the End was near was a foregone conclusion to no one, yet it seemed to simmer softly on the background of people's minds. Under the surface of rationality, rabid emotions were afoot and bubbled to the surface in the form of economic crises in the Far East, and disaster movies in the west: Independence Day, Armageddon, and the grand daddy of them all, Titanic. Aliens, asteroids, and icebergs threatened the wholesale destruction of the status quo on movie screens across America, while the Asian Contagion ravaged formerly high growth economies across East Asia.
The movies suggested the gravity of disaster which lay before us, and economists fretted aloud about the horrible impacts of the "contagion" should it spread to this country. In the end, the disasters took place only in the movies, and in lands far, far away from our own. The twentieth century had a happy ending, or so it seemed.
But if reality were a movie, the NASDAQ wouldn't have ended in that horrible, slow-motion crash, but with heroes Greenspan and Bush Jr. dashing to an heroic rescue, holding the market up with the sheer strength and force of will, saving the American Public from financial ruin. And those planes…they never would have hit the Trade Center.
Titanic offered an eerily perfect metaphor: well dressed, well fed, affluent individuals, ignorantly putting their blind faith in the newest technology, the New Era, oblivious to the unseen forces which would ultimately spell their demise. The same description could easily have applied to the U.S. economy in late 1999, when the economic party still looked like it was going strong. America was a singular beacon, floating, seemingly effortlessly, high above the financial catastrophe that the rest of the world had become. Russia had defaulted on its international debts. The "Asian Contagion" - a series of market crashes, competitive currency devaluations, and economic malaise that began in 1997, loomed like a specter over the apparent good fortune of the U.S. economy. It hung dark and menacing on the horizon, like a storm that could either blow in and wreak havoc or disperse harmlessly to sea. The "Contagion's" threat to the U.S. economy was deemed vague and too distant, and after 2 years with no discernible effect, were all but dismissed. As always, what you don't know can't hurt you. Until it does.
As the economy picked up steam from 1997, domestic economic sights shifted from the carnage abroad to the miracle at home: Levitating stock markets. The New Era. Dot-com Mania. Endless prosperity for all. In 1999, if you hadn't heard of Technology, the internet, and the NASDAQ, you were simply out of touch with the times. Which may not have been such a bad thing, considering. While many now say that the New Era has ended, few realize that the ending has only just begun. For few recognize the mania for what it was: A temporary leave from our economic good senses, the return to which will be quite painful.
Even in the waning days of the Internet bubble, the mania was given only kid glove treatment. There were plenty of half-hearted allusions to the Dutch tulipomania, but they seemed almost tongue in cheek, delivered with the cheeky confidence that this was something different. After all, in 1999 we were much more enlightened than in the Middle Ages. Computers and the internet were to rule the world. New Media was the big idea. We weren't as silly as to ascribe astronomical value to something as worthless as a tulip bulb. Were we?
The end of boom times always heralds the beginning of the bust. This particular bust, of the largest boom ever, will have repercussions further than most analysts currently anticipate. This is where the Asian Contagion comes home to roost. In 1997, the worry du jour was that the Asian economic shipwrecks, after devaluing their currencies, would export "deflation" to the United States, causing a deflationary spiral and economic stagnation at home. There was debate, but no conclusion. America continued to prosper, Asian nations sank further, and the debate was forgotten.
At this point, it may help us to define a "deflationary spiral." As opposed to an inflationary spiral, wherein prices climb higher and higher, spinning out of control and out of reach of consumers, a deflationary spiral features falling prices. Businesses, due to excessive competition, lose pricing power: They can't raise prices because too many competitors are willing to lower them. Consumers, sensing this, postpone purchases knowing that if they wait long enough, prices will come down.
This past Christmas, we all witnessed a mini deflationary spiral. Shoppers knew that prices would be cheaper the closer they got to Christmas. And after Christmas, it was simply a bonanza of lower prices!
This is where the deflation debate reopens. Was the mini-deflationary spiral witnessed at Christmas time a one time event, or a precursor of things to come? After all, every Christmas season sees such a deflation spiral, though this year seems to have been stronger than most. Signs point to further deflation. Zero percent financing for cars is simply another way of lowering prices, enticing consumption. But with the recent spate of zero down, zero percent financing, everyone and his brother who was going to buy a car in the next 6 months ponied up for the deal. How will auto manufacturers entice people to buy new cars in the 6 months forward, after they've cannibalized their own customers from the future? The only answer can be lower prices. The downward spiral will continue. For a while.
The country is awash in stuff - merchandise, products - and people are not buying, at least not at these prices. National Reorganization of Priorities Day (9/11) has changed all that. What does anyone need in this country, that they can't wait to get a tad cheaper next month? The problem with this - a true deflationary spiral - is that the current economy has been fine tuned for high octane growth. One look at the debt levels being carried by individuals, businesses - the government itself - betrays as much. The gross magnitude and structure of debt is such that growth is a requisite for simply meeting interest payments. Stagnation means death. Look at what happened to the Airlines after 9/11 - one week without business and they nearly all went bankrupt. Their ballooning debt levels threatened to topple them instantly. Now they're living on borrowed time and borrowed money. Yours.
This is where it gets tricky in the deflationary spiral. Deflation can turn to inflation instantly, in the blink of an eye, because deflation or inflation is merely a matter of perspective. When the afore mentioned Asian nations devalued their currencies in 1997, their exports immediately became cheaper in terms of our dollars. They began "exporting deflation," as predicted. Imported goods that were already cheap suddenly became even cheaper. But in the countries that devalued - Thailand, South Korea and Indonesia - imported goods immediately became more expensive. These countries suffered massive inflation. In the case of Indonesia, the economic turmoil caused by inflation led to social unrest and violence in the streets. American consumers benefited by lower prices, while Asian workers and consumers suffered from shortages of money.
Inflation and deflation are two sides to the same coin, which makes fighting them quite tricky, especially in the same economy. Currently, the Fed is trying to arrest the deflationary spiral with an inflationary spiral of its own. They are inflating the U.S. dollar - making more available for use by lowering interest rates. They are loaning it out cheap to anyone who wants it. But it's not working. The economy is not growing, and the only thing being inflated by their policies is the supply of U.S. Dollars.
Inflation of the U.S. dollar is nothing new, and it happened with abandon through the 1990s. While we generally think of the 90's as a period of low inflation, nothing could be further from the truth! Inflation was rampant in the stock market, the bond market, in mortgage securities and in the U.S. dollar. All of these paper assets appreciated far in excess of the corresponding value of the real assets they represented. When that difference became so unbalanced, and so obvious, the paper assets began to lose value, and will continue to lose value until they again represent the true value of the underlying assets they represent. This holds true for stocks, bonds, mortgaged backed securities, as well as the dollar itself.
The dollar is merely a paper asset like the rest, backed only by the promise of the U.S. Government to pay anyone bearing a dollar…a dollar. The dollar has maintained its strength partly due to the strength of the American economy, but mainly due to the dollar's status as international reserve currency. Nearly all international financial transactions are settled in dollars, thus creating an artificially high demand for the currency. Were this not the case, America's financial position, with its perennial budget deficits and $6,000,000,000,000 debt, would look no better than say, Argentina's.
By continuing to inflate the money supply in the hopes of re-igniting economic growth, the government is playing for broke. There are no limits on the amount of dollars the treasury can print, as America's erstwhile budget surplus turned deficit demonstrates. Should world markets lose faith in the dollar and in America's commitment to "fiscal responsibility," our deflationary spiral could snap instantly and be replaced by massive inflation along the lines of Thailand or Indonesia.
It is no wonder that we are being told that our patriotic duty is to shop. Stagnation will mean death for many companies, and could start a financial domino effect that will ripple through every sector of the economy.
Change happens slowly, but our recognition of it occurs instantly. Prior to 9/11, the world was becoming increasingly unstable and unsafe, though we chose to ignore the signs. It took a violent shock for us to recognize the truth. Likewise, the U.S. economy will see massive shocks in the coming months and years. We are currently only feeling the tremors of what is to come.

Solidarity demonstrators from round Scotland won an important victory at Edinburgh’s High Riggs jobcentre on 14th March. The welfare rights worker from ECAP affiliated Edinburgh Claimants successfully accompanied the jobseeker to his appointment, as the DWP and G4S security backed down from their previous attempt to deny this right.
Edinburgh Coalition Against Poverty called the demo after G4S security guards attacked the same welfare rights rep as he accompanied the same JSA claimant at High Riggs on 29th February. Totally flouting the DWP’s own rules, the G4S guards denied the claimant his basic human right to be accompanied by whoever he wishes.
Around 50 demonstrators answered the call and crowded round the jobcentre entrance on the 14th. Alerted through the Action Against Austerity and other networks, groups and individuals from Dundee, Forfar, Glasgow, Greenock and Stirling joined ECAP and other locals from Edinburgh and Lothians. Castlemilk Against Austerity, Dundee Against Austerity, Glasgow Anarchist Collective, Scottish Unemployed Workers Network, and Stirling Anarchists were among those present. The Rhythms of Resistance samba band gave a musical accompaniment to the angry chants…. ADVOCACY IS NOT A CRIME…. G4S NAZI SWINE…. IDS – ROT IN HELL…..
Emerging from the jobcentre, welfare rights worker Bob spoke to the crowd. He revealed that unlike the 29th February there had been no attempt by the security guards to stop him – though the DWP still made spurious demands he show ID, which he successfully declined to do. Significantly, the DWP interviewer’s attitude was positively transformed from the usual bullying and harassment to which the claimant has been regularly subjected. “This is totally down to the solidarity shown by all of you,” Bob declared.
THE POWER OF SOLIDARITY
“Today’s action shows the power of solidarity. If we are isolated and alone, the DWP can bully and sanction us. If we take action together, then we can fight them back,” says Esther MacDonald of ECAP. “We cannot rely on politicians or any leaders, we need grass-roots direct action to resist the austerity attack from the rich and their political lackeys. We need to build on successes like this to move towards creating a counter-power which can challenge the whole capitalist profit system.”
Tony Cox of the Scottish Unemployed Workers Network was among those addressing the demo. Tony faces trial in Dundee on – provisionally – 9th June on a trumped-up charge, following his disgraceful arrest while representing a claimant at a Maximus disability benefits assessment. Demonstrators at Hìgh Riggs pledged to be at the court in Dundee to show solidarity with Tony – advocacy is not a crime! Together we can win!
The facts on the Right to be accompanied can be found on our page ‘Benefits Interviews: Be Accompanied’.
The upcoming Action Against Austerity conference on Sunday 3rd April at Fred Paton Centre, Glasgow will be an excellent opportunity to develop the links between grass-roots direct action groups round Scotland which were important in winning this victory, and which will be vital in the struggles to come – e mail firstname.lastname@example.org for more details of the conference
The public meeting with Lynne Friedli of Boycott Workfare on Monday 21st March at 7pm in the Quaker Meeting House in Edinburgh will provide another good oppportunity to discuss the way forward – the theme is “Fighting to live and winning – the common struggle against workfare and wage slavery.”

And despite the upbeat words during George Osborne's Autumn Statement, Max and Stacy notice that the actual facts on the ground, from the biggest draw down on savings in 40 years to a £5000 collapse in median household income to a doubling of malnutrition cases at English hospitals, the real economy seems to be shrinking at an ever faster pace. In the second half, Max debunks George Osborne's economic policies with the help of Professor Steve Keen, author of Debunking Economics. They discuss the bureau-crazies and the financial-political complex which has destroyed the economy and Keen notes that the Dodd-Frank Act got rid of Section 13.3 of the Federal Reserve Act which would have allowed the Federal Reserve to bailout the public rather than the banks.

U.S Rep. Jahana Hayes is backing Kamala Harris for president, becoming the seventh member of the Congressional Black Caucus to endorse the California Democrat.
In an op-ed piece published Wednesday in Essence magazine, Hayes called Harris “the perfect antidote to our current President’s false narratives."
"With her intellect, strength and empathy at the helm, we can work to be better together. Senator Harris has laid out a powerful and bold vision for this country that is inclusive of everyone’s lived experience and grounded in the belief that success should not be defined by race, gender, socioeconomic status or zip code,'' Hayes wrote.
Harris was an early supporter of Hayes, backing her for the 5th District seat before she won a primary against former Simsbury First Selectman Mary Glassman to secure the Democratic nomination.
“I’m so proud to have Jahana’s support in this race,” Harris said. “As a teacher and working mom, Jahana understands first-hand that our families are looking for leadership to solve the challenges that keep them up each night. She has stood in front and lifted up our nation’s future leaders and was recognized as a champion not only in the classroom but for the residents of Connecticut. I’m glad to have her in this fight to give hard-working Americans a raise, pay teachers their value, and ensure access to affordable healthcare.”
Hayes joins fellow Congressional Black Caucus members Barbara Lee of California, Al Green of Texas, Alcee Hastings and Frederica Wilson of Florida, Wm. Lacy Clay of Missouri and Bobby Rush of Illinois in supporting Harris’ candidacy.
Hayes is the first member of the Connecticut delegation to endorse in the 2020 presidential race. On Tuesday, Gov. Ned Lamont publicly disclosed that he is backing former vice president Joe Biden.
In her essay, Hayes cited Harris’ experience as a young child who was bused as part of an effort to desegregate public schools. Harris criticized Biden during a Democratic debate last week for opposing federally mandated busing to racially integrate schools in the 1970s.
"Court-ordered desegregation was never just about making classrooms diverse — it was about access to resources for millions of children around the country who deserved a fair shot at opportunity,'' Hayes wrote. "The doors that opened for Kamala to board that school bus each morning were a symbol of the doors that she would be able to open later: becoming the first Black woman District Attorney in California, the first Black woman California Attorney General, and the second Black woman elected to the United States Senate. We should be compelled to hold the same doors open for others.”

From giant whirlpools to currents 1,000 km wide, scientists said on Monday they have uncovered how vast amounts of carbon are locked away in the depths of the Southern Ocean, boosting researchers ability to detect the impact of climate change.Oceans curb the pace of climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels. The Southern Ocean is the largest of these ocean carbon sinks, soaking up about 40 percent of mankind's CO2 absorbed by the seas.
But until now, researchers were unsure what mechanisms were involved because of the remoteness and sheer size of the Southern Ocean.
"By identifying the mechanisms responsible for taking carbon out of the surface layer in the ocean, we're in a much better situation to talk about how climate change might impact that process," said oceanographer Richard Matear, one of the authors of the Southern Ocean study published in the journal Nature Geoscience.
The team of British and Australian scientists found that currents that take carbon from the surface to the depths occur at specific locations, not uniformly across the ocean as previously thought.
They found that a combination of winds, currents and whirlpools create conditions for carbon to be drawn down into the deep ocean to be locked away for decades to centuries. Some of the plunging currents were up to 1,000 km (600 miles) wide.
In other areas, currents return carbon to the atmosphere as part of a natural cycle.
But overall, the Southern Ocean is large net carbon sink, the authors say, calculating the area between 35 and 65 degrees south takes up the equivalent of 1.5 billion tonnes of CO2 a year, or more than the annual greenhouse gas emissions of Japan.
Scientists worry that a warming planet could disrupt this natural pattern by changing wind patterns and ocean currents.
Matear said by figuring how the Southern Ocean worked and using a new monitoring network of robotic ocean-going devices researchers will get a much better handle on how the seas between Australia and Antarctica are changing.
"Climate change will definitely interact with this process and modulate it," Matear, of Australia's state-funded Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, told Reuters.

The evidence for artificial intelligence in eye care has exploded in the past year. Studies show its utility in detecting everything from diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration to neuroretinal rim damage and even neuropathic corneal nerve pain.1-5 Several research teams have tackled deep learning algorithms for detecting glaucoma, including researchers at Google.6,7 They recently used one approach to predict glaucoma risk and identify optic nerve head (ONH) characteristics—with promising results.7
The team trained their algorithm using 58,033 retinal images already graded by 41 experts and marked as having glaucomatous ONH features, glaucoma risk and gradability. Once trained, the software was testing on 1,205 other images that were also graded by fellowship trained glaucoma specialists. While the system identified glaucoma risk based on the images, it also helped the team evaluate the importance of various ONH features.7
The results, presented last Monday at ARVO 2019, show the algorithm accurately detected the majority of images with risk of glaucoma, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.940. The researchers noted the software was more accurate than eye care providers for a group of 411 of the images. The deep learning tool was also accurate when identifying ONH features, with AUCs ranging from 0.608 to 0.977. The team found certain ONH features particularly influenced the glaucoma specialists’ evaluations, including vertical cup-to-disc ratio greater than or equal to 0.7, neuroretinal rim notching, retinal nerve fiber layer defects and bared circumlinear vessels.7

Kristen Stewart on Her Height Difference with Princess Diana
Kristen Stewart wanted to alter her height while playing Princess Diana.
The movie Spencer whose name is derived from Diana’s maiden name, is a fable based on actual events, according to director Pablo Larrain. In this case, the events occur at a Christmas party held at the Queen’s estate in 1991, when Diana’s marriage to Prince Charles was on the rocks, and she was tired of the responsibilities of being a royal.
Actress Kristen Stewart portrays Diana in the movie with brittle intensity. She seems to get every element right, including her high-born accent, somewhat trapped-animal appearance, and interaction with the press; Stewart is well-versed in.
At age 32, Stewart, like Diana, has evolved into a celebrity that the media can’t get enough of. Although she brushes aside comparisons to the late Princess Di, she is incredibly proud of her role.

However, it took a lot of work to play Diana. For her new movie Spencer, Kristen Stewart had to entirely convert into the late Princess Diana, which was challenging in many ways. She spent months refining Diana’s words and movement to do her justice.
Kristen Stewart on playing Princess Diana
The Twilight actress admitted that her curtsy “went out the window as soon as I got on set” of Spencer’s movie, but fortunately, there were royal advisors present to educate her on the numerous behaviors that an “outsider” wouldn’t typically be familiar with.
Stewart mentioned, “Once I learned the curtsy and learned we’re not supposed to go in the kitchen ourselves and steal food, all those details, I don’t really remember them. But there was always someone to make sure we weren’t going out of line and were staying authentic.”
A 32-year-old actress revealed that she got a lot of inspiration from studying historical images and footage of Diana.
“I took more pleasure in my physicality making this movie than I have on anything,” the actress said at the Venice Film Festival press conference, according to Us Weekly. “I felt more free and alive and able to move — and taller, even.”
“I look at her, the pictures and fleeting video clips, and I feel [like] the ground shakes and you don’t know what’s going to happen,” she said, playing the late Princess of Wales.
Kristen on altering the height
The actress wanted to change her height to resemble Diana more closely. “I tried to get taller,” Kristen said in an interview with The Sunday Times. “I’m 5ft 5 inches. She had such beautiful stature. I thought, ‘I wish I could grow my femur! But I’m playing Diana, and I’m not her….”
However, this is not the first time that the Twilight star faced the issue concerning height. Pairing Stewart and Mackenzie Davis in a lesbian holiday rom-com had its affirmation challenged due to the height difference between the two actresses. Davis is allegedly 5-foot-11, and Kristen Stewart allegedly stands 5-foot-5 inches tall.

Christina Brucato’s net worth
Brucato’s primary source of income is the work that made her famous: a TV star.
Her net worth is expected to be hefty, with her name associated with big movies and TV shows. But the exact figure of her net worth is unknown.
Christina Brucato’s breakthrough roles
Brucato actually portrayed Young Lolly in Orange Is the New Black’s fourth season, episode seven, which eventually delves into Lolly Whitehill’s past. You could be excused for assuming that actress Lori Petty merely threw on a brown wig to play young Lolly in the flashback sequence where she is an aspiring journalist.
However, the actress portrays little Lolly in this scene, pulling off an uncannily accurate impersonation of Lori Petty’s voice and attitude.
Brucato landed a recurring role on the CW’s DC’s Legends of Tomorrow. She played Lily Stein, a character introduced in The Flash crossover “Invasion” episode.
In the series from Berlanti TV and Warner Bros. TV, Brucato joins Legends stars Brandon Routh, Victor Garber, Arthur Darvill, Dominic Purcell, Caity Lotz, Franz Drameh, Nick Zano, Amy Pemberton, Matt Letscher, Maisie Richardson-Sellers.
Brucato recently appeared on The Menu, an American black comedy horror film directed by Mark Mylod that is based on an original story created by Will Tracy. The conflict between the extremely wealthy and those viewed as beneath them is presented in the film’s text. Or, to use Chef Slowik’s phrase, the gap between givers and takers.
She revealed that she loved the script and that it was one of the best scripts she had heard in a long time. The actress revealed that she had nightmares after reading the scripts; however, she mentioned being so happy to be cast in such a movie.
Meet Andrea Barber’s Kids: Shares Them with Her Ex Husband Jeremy Rytky
Andrea Barber shares two children with her ex-husband Jeremy Rytky.
Andrea Barber was born in Los Angeles, California, on July 3, 1976. She is a writer and an actress best known for her performances on Days of Our Lives (1965), Full House (1987), and Fuller House (2016).
Barber got married to Jeremy Rytky on September 1, 2002. The couple was married for 12 years before they finally parted ways in 2014.
Alum of the Fuller House, Barber played Kimmy Gibbler from 2016 to 2020 in the Netflix sitcom. In real life, she’s a mom to two kids, Tate and Felicity, whom she shares with her former husband, Rytky.
Andrew Barber’s children
Barber gave birth to her first child, a son named Tate James Rytky, on April 30, 2004, when she was 27 years old.
She also shares a daughter named Felicity Ruth Rytky, born on April 10, 2007, who is now fifteen years old with Jeremy.
Many fans who adore Barber’s character in the Fuller House series have praised her for her role in the show. This cannot be said for her 16-year-old son Tate, who openly expresses to his mother that he is unimpressed with her on-screen character.
Tate, however, is a secret admirer of his mother’s work, and Barber once disclosed that her teenage son frequently watches her on Netflix. She said, “His friends all think it’s cool, but he’s mortified by anything I do on-screen or off-screen. But I will catch him in his room binge-watching the show. He’s a closet fan.”
The 15-year-old Felicity, on the other hand, supports her mother because she is such a big fan of the actress and has consistently expressed her utter excitement at finally getting to meet her mother’s co-star.
Felicity even made a cameo appearance on the show when she was younger, alongside Zoie Sweetin, the daughter of Jodie Sweetin. “To have our daughters be on a show that we were on when we were their age — it was this crazy moment where I remember thinking, “I never in a million years would’ve thought that someday I would have kids [who] would be on the next chapter of this series,” Jodie said to People in December 2016.
Who is Andrew Barber’s new boyfriend?
In an interview with People in January 2016, Barber revealed, “Running has been a great mantra for my life, too. It’s all about moving forward. I met my current boyfriend Michael through running. It’s great to have this common interest. Running has just brought so many positives to my life. I feel incomplete without it.”
In January 2020, Michael last uploaded a picture of himself and Barber to Instagram. The Days of Our Lives alum shared a photo of her boyfriend in August 2020 and made multiple YouTube vlogs with him during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite not sharing any recent pictures of themselves together, the couple appears to be still together.

President Donald Trump might want to throw himself a retweet.
A 2013 Trump tweet about Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth’s first breakup has resurfaced in light of the pair’s recent separation.
The performers rekindled their romance in 2015 and tied the knot in January of this year.
Neither Cyrus, 26, nor Hemsworth, 29, has responded to the tweet, but Cyrus has already moved on with Brody Jenner’s ex Kaitlynn Carter, whom she was spotted kissing in Italy.
Meanwhile, Hemsworth publicly wished Cyrus nothing but “health and happiness” going forward.
At least they both seem to be remaining “strong.”

Resident Foodies say: We have good news and bad news. First, the good new–no, great news–is that our favorite Chicago restaurant, L2O (short for H2O + Laurent Gras), was awarded today the highest distinction in the restaurant industry: 3 Michelin stars. (Only Alinea matched that feat in Chicago.)
The bad news–and really bad news–is that Executive Chef Laurent Gras took a leave of absence a couple weeks ago and left town. It’s not clear if Gras is displeased with the restaurant management or has some non-work related issue. But the owner of L2O, Rich Melman, thinks that Gras may have left for good, despite Melman’s efforts to keep him. We hope not!
To celebrate the Michelin honor, we are rerunning our 2009 review of the restaurant:

This is a great answer to anyone who wonders why some of us carry fuel on our bikes. I know an extra half gallon or so won't make that big of a difference ... unless you happen to be a half gallon short.
I am not real fond of wrestling my bike onto the centerstand under certain conditions. I am real sure I don't want to have to push it under any conditions.
Pic was taken on James Bay Road, north of Matagambe, QC., looking northbound.
James Bay Road is the only way to get to Radisson (an outpost town for Hydro Quebec) in northern QC province. Going north, its the end of the line! Matagambe is at the southern end (or the start) of James Bay Road. In order to ride on JBR, you have to sign in at the southern end. They want to know who is using it and when.
James Bay Road is about 640 kl long, and there is only one gas stop along the way.
Last time I was there, regular was .99/liter. BTW, they sell #1, #2, and unleaded regular ONLY. It's a nice ride up there .. would like to do it again this coming summer.

Skip to comments.Fox News Poll: 58 percent say Obama administration incompetent at managing gov't
Posted on 07/23/2014 3:00:28 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer
Has the Obama administration competently and effectively managed the government? A Fox News poll released Wednesday finds a majority of American voters says no -- including about a third of Democrats.
A 58-percent majority says the White House has not been competent at managing the federal government. Some 32 percent of Democrats join 67 percent of independents and 84 percent of Republicans in holding that view.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
The incompetent get rewarded and promoted in this admin, it is starting to become the new Venezuela.
That meams 42% are stoopid, ignorant and uninformed.
This means there is still a boatload of lo-fo voters who still worship the driveler-in-chief.
This country has been dumbed down.
“That meams 42% are stoopid, ignorant and uninformed.”
Not necessarily. How many of thoses people do you think genuinely believe Obama Chooses to do the wrong/immoral thing?
Most of us free republic members seem to believe that he is incompetent because He has no history of excursive leadership, upon which to say he can do the job competently. I suspect of many of us still believe he can but chooses not to, and thus are members of that 42%.
It is difficult to tell whether a man is genuinely incompetent or willfully negligent.
It also means that 10% of people know he is incompetent and voted for him anyway.
No it doesnt, this is a case of simple set theory.
58% of american believe Obama is an incompetent executive. That leaves 42% that eyther beleive Obama chooses to do his job poorly(as many Free Republic members still believe) or that Obama does know how to do his job and just regulatory gets results that contradict even his own claims for “insert excuse here”.
The only reason I am obliged to believe Obama is incompetent is because:
1: Some of his failures have bit him in the ass despite the best effort of his adoring fans in the Press to cover them up.
2: Obama has never in his life demonstrated that he does have the capability to manage an organization as an chief executive competently. So we cannot in fairness say with all certainly that he is deliberately screwing up his job.
The other 42% were suffering from political aneurysm brought on by the Socialist media...
“It also means that 10% of people know he is incompetent and voted for him anyway.”
Also not necessarily true, as we have no way of knowing that this was their opinion before voting for him. Althou based upon what we know it should have been.
I think ALL the people who believe 0bama is doing a good job are stupid
15% answered “Stop buggin’ me, I'm tryin’ to play a video game!”
5% were running late to their American Communist/Global Warming Alarmist/Pro Gun Control meetings....
12% answered “banana”
Obama has never had the best interests of this country in mind, in fact just the opposite. I would have thought at least 75% of the people would have realized this by now.
42% are Gibmedats.
In other news, 48% can’t tie their shoelaces.
I would love to hear someone explain why they believe he is competent.
Sad that 42% think Obama is OK. Does not say much positive about America’s voters. The corrupt education system has done a great job in dumbing down our citizens.
We wish he were just incompetent.
Instead, he works for t he other side.
0 can’t even manage his old lady! Let alone a Country!
Why suggest incompetence when malice and evil intent is in clear view?
He's been incredibly effective at damaging America.
He has been the BEST anti-American President ever!
At least Jimmy Carter was just an idiot.
Obama knows precisely what he is doing to destroy our country.
That said, America as an idea is greater than Obama...and it will endure long after Obama is distant history.
That said, Obama will be a footnote in the encyclopedia of racism. He was the only race baiter to ever be elected president.
And hopefully, he will be the last.
Obama is a liar of the first order.
Not just a bad president...an anti-American president.
He represents all that America stands against.
He will go down in history...but history will not be kind to him.
I really have never understood why the people put so much faith in the Feds. For over 40 years I have watched as they have taken more and more of our earnings and used it to both tighten the regulatory noose and spent it on giveaway programs that were it put to a vote, Americans would never have approved.
I think that the WWII generation were a lot of the cause of this because of the blind faith they had in FDR and the regimentation of both the civilian and military sides of our people. I saw it as a teenager and have known since I was 16 that these times were coming.
I have watched Kilmeade on Fox and always thought he was not the sharpest knife in the drawer, if he can see it Obama’s support is getting very shallow. This cuts both ways, it will make Obama move ever faster to assure our destruction, or it will make him even more ineffective and the push back swifter.
Some will never admit the truth, they have invested to much faith in this traitor, some as you said are terrified. Terrified of losing their cushy lifestyle or terrified of death? Kiss the lifestyle goodbye, it is only going to get harder and harder to maintain. The fear of death is cowardice and guilt, a fear of what comes next because of the way they have lived their lives. Our only answer to that fear is to make amends to God and live without fear of the judgement. Death comes to all, we can stand as men, or whine on the way out like children.

The music was loud, the lights were mostly off and the students danced all night for a cure.
Stroudsburg High School held its Mini-Thon Saturday night into Sunday morning in the gymnasium of the school. More than 570 students stayed on their feet during 12-hour dance marathon, which benefits the Four Diamonds Fund at the Penn State Hershey’s Children Hospital and pediatric cancer research.
The students raised $80,350.17 throughout the year through various fundraising efforts, which is close to $30,000 more than 2015. Mini-Thon was the culmination of the students’ efforts throughout the year.
Senior executive chair Adam DeSchriver said the committee had become aware around 6 a.m. that they were within striking zone of hitting $80,000.
"The money poured in over night," he said. "We did a lot of counting."
Besides from feeling tired by the end, he said it was incredible to see the amount raised. The work that has gone into the Mini-Thon over the last three years has changed what it means to be a Stroudsburg student, DeSchriver said, including being selfless and dedicated.
"I hope it's a lesson that every student can take away," he said, adding the work on Mini-Thon is felt each day in school.
Before the night began, teacher Shawn Thornton, said the students were affecting the lives of people they didn't even know.
"You are heroes to so many people, you don't know them, you'll never meet them," Thornton said. "You're an inspiration."
Senior Maci Kendrick, the fundraising chair, said students went out to businesses in the community, asking for donations, either monetary or even food and drinks for Mini-Thon. The students meet in what adds up to more than 1,000 hours, planning, executing and making sure tasks are followed through on.
The Mini-Thon wrapped up its third year at Stroudsburg, but has already become one of the larger Mini-Thons in the area. In 2015, the group raise over $52,000. This year, Pleasant Valley Elementary and Middle Schools raised just over $30,000, while Pocono Mountain East High School raised more than $11,000.
“There’s a wonderful sense of satisfaction,” said junior executive chair Michelle Joyce.
Adviser Andrew Kurnas said the event has gotten bigger each year from its inception. Those who participate and like it, love doing it, he said.
While the 12 hours on the feet can be grueling, it’s all worth it in the end and there is a sense of accomplishment.
“You feel like you did something,” he said. “To stand on your feet for 12 hours, it tests all of you.”
After the reveal, Kurnas was almost speechless at the amount raised and the work the students did.
"I get the compliments, but it's these guys that deserve the credit," he said, pointing to the students.
In planning the Mini-Thon, Kurnas said the students learn how to communicate with adults, become communicators, learn organizing skills and how to speak to each other and respect each others ideas. Many times, he is relying on the students to do jobs adults would do, like monitoring the bathrooms during the event.
And when things don’t go right, such as a light being blown out, he gives suggestions on how to fix it. The night of Mini-Thon for him is making sure the jobs are getting done. But, as students are getting more skilled at organizing the event, he said it’s coming to a point where if it worked the previous year, the plan will be the same.
Throughout the night, students keep moving by playing games, like bean-bag toss, ping-pong, Wii dance games and other activities. Color war events were also held throughout the night.
The students were divided into different colored teams of red, orange, green, blue, purple and pink and competed in different activities, such as a cheering contest and a tagging game.
Some students opted to cut their hair and donate it to Wigs 4 Kids, which makes wigs for children that have lost their hair due to cancer treatments.
Faith Brown, a senior, cut 10-inches off. She said she was in shock after doing so.
Around 2:50 a.m., Mindy Tkach, a teacher at the high school, spoke on why the students were there, dancing for the 12 hours.
Two of her younger cousins were affected by pediatric cancer, she said. She said it was the first time sharing the experience with the students at Mini-Thon and wanted to remind the students the real reason they were there.
A video of messages from the teachers was also played, to help the students get through the night. By the morning hours, students were tired, but pushing through to the reveal.
Senior Jacob Angradi said he was feeling energetic just around 6:30 a.m.
"My body is tired," he said. "But my mind is still ready to go. We've worked so hard since November and it's great to see the work paid off."

The US Navy (USN) spent thousands of hours planning the convergence and drilling of three carrier strike groups (CSGs) in the Western Pacific at the same time, the first such exercise in about a decade.
“Lots of changes occurred,” Rear Admiral Gregory Harris, commander of Carrier Strike Group 2, told Jane’s aboard the CSG’s anchor ship, USS Nimitz (CVN 68), as the ship launched and recovered aircraft during the drills.
Nimitz is returning from deployment in the Middle East and Indian waters and will be replaced by the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71), which is transiting to the regions. USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) is forward based in Japan and the ship’s commanding team has taken the lead on the three-carrier drills.
“We had to see what would make sense in terms of timing and speed,” Rear Adm Harris said.
But marrying up the ships at the same time was not even half the battle – other matters had to be carefully considered.
“Where are we going to operate?” Rear Adm Harris said. “There was laying out water space, air space. What are the major chess moves?”
The nuclear-powered carriers are protected by groups of fuel-burning surface ships, which have to be resupplied. “If you look at the logistics,” he said, “all of these surface vessels need gas and fuel. Just getting a boiler or tanker to the right spot is something”.
And the carriers themselves have their own individual issues that need to be addressed.
“Each is in a different point of its cycle,” Rear Adm Harris noted.

Micro RPG is a mobile game where the player uses a variety of weapons to execute timed range attacks to defeat enemies. At the start of the game, the player starts with one character with three weapons; a sword, an axe, and a bow. Enemies approach the character on-screen and the player needs to choose between their different weapons to make targeted attacks. Each weapon’s damage has a range displayed as a circle and the area of attack rotates around that circle. The player needs to time their attacks so that the area of damage passes over the greatest number of enemies possible. Certain enemies will move out of range, and then the player needs to evaluate which weapon they will use for their next turn. Each level of the game has objectives that need to be reached in the form of numbers and types of enemies that need to be defeated. Each level also has a set amount of turns in which the player needs to complete those objectives.
Completing the main objective and the optional objectives will earn the player various types of in-game currency. Earnings in the game can be spent on chests that will unlock bonuses for weapons, upgrades for characters, and new characters. Currency can also be spent on leveling up and healing your selected character before going into the next fight.
The game also features daily challenges that can earn the player more in-game currency. Micro RPG is available for iOS and Android and is free-to-play. However, in-app purchases are available.
Timing and working under pressure are important skills for succeeding in Micro RPG. The player needs to work under timing pressure and judge when to tap their weapon as it covers the greatest number of enemies possible. This will ensure that the player does the most damage possible and reaches their objective within the turn limit. The player also needs to work under the pressure of the turn limit. The turns are not timed but they are finite, meaning that the player cannot just infinitely attack and hope to complete the objectives.
Flexibility: Adapting and adjusting to changing conditions and expectations
In order to successfully complete each battle and move through the five levels of the game, the player needs to be able to use their flexibility skills and adapt to the changing situations in the game. Each level brings new enemies, new attack patterns, and new objectives that need to be reached. Boss fights at the end of each level bring additional challenges that need to be overcome in addition to those of the standard enemies from the level. The player needs to assess the situation, choose the weapon that is the most appropriate for the current attack, or even which character will be the most appropriate for the current level.

Newly elected mayor Mike Bloomberg has just recently been made aware of the calamitous situation facing NYC because of its bloated pension costs-and he is vowing to get a hold of the mess before it really gets bad for New York tax payers. As the NY Post reports: "The Bloomberg administration is reviewing the city's costly pension system to determine if there's a way to rein in exploding payouts unilaterally or whether "legal changes" are necessary, officials disclosed yesterday. "We are starting to focus on all our expenses; clearly pensions are right near the top," Mayor Bloomberg said after being asked at a City Hall press conference if the Fire Department Pension Fund needs to more closely scrutinize the disability pensions granted to three-quarters of retiring firefighters."
Of course, in reality the mayor has actually been in office for the past eight years, and in that time the pension bloat has become cadaver-like, and autopsy ready: "Overall, the city's pension costs are expected to reach $7.6 billion this year -- up from $1.4 billion when Bloomberg took office in 2002. Next year, it's expected to hit $8.7 billion."
But, as the mayor himself realizes, it is not the individual cases of abuse-whether they are isolated or not-it is the system itself that is unsustainable. However, knowing that the system creates unsustainable tax payer obligations should behoove the fiscally responsible elected official to rein in these costs by limiting the size and scope of municipal government-something that Mike Bloomberg didn't do, in fact, as we pointed out yesterday, he did the exact opposite.
So now, eight and a half years after taking office, Rip Van Bloomberg awakens to the city's unsustainable pension problem. But Mike, unlike Topsy, it didn't just growed.

Never in a million years did I ever consider that I might someday make a mermaid or shark blanket…but I did!!! In fact, I made, not one, not two, not three, but FOUR mermaids and one shark.
Simplicity 8275 was just the pattern and it came with a matching doll sized pattern, so I made my two nieces a pair.
I swear I cut out sooooo many starfish….this blanket is adorable, but really….just skip the smallest size starfish in the pattern (or maybe only cut a few). The pattern actually has three sizes of starfish in it, so don’t feel like you have to use the smallest one only!
Here are the finished blankets. I did add some ribbon trim to the top just to bling them up a little.
Let’s just say that between the starfish cutting and the sewing on, these blankets took far longer than I thought they would! To sew them on, you first stitched around the outside edges, then you stitched lines in the center to make it look like a starfish.
But…I’m not easily deterred, so next up was the shark for my 7 year old nephew. I figured it had to be fast and easy after the mermaids and it was. The shark is AMAZING. I WANT ONE!!!!!!!! My nephew is about a half a foot taller than my oldest niece, so I did add some extra inches to the top of the blanket for him. His shark turned out perfectly awesome. I made it per the pattern except for the addition of the length, and I stitched down the facing at center front and center back. The pattern has you just stitch the facing in the ditch on the side seams, but I didn’t think that held it well enough.
If you make this pattern, make sure that you cut out 4 sets of side fins. My printed pattern only said to cut two. The diagram showed 4. Of course I didn’t realize it until I was trying to figure out how it went together and realized that I needed another side fin! Luckily, I had enough scraps that I could make it work. Cue the Jaws music!!
Amazing, right?!!! I love how the red peaks out! For the rick rack, I used the jumbo simplicity stuff on a spool that you buy. In my Joanns, it was back with the trims that have to be cut by the yard. The spool had just enough to go around the mouth. I had about 6″ left over. If I were making the adult one, I’d definitely get two spools.
Here’s to give a sense of how tall this is. I added 7 inches on and I’m about 5’6″.
Both mermaids and sharks are amazing! The mermaids are a lot of work…but you can make it easier on yourself by either skipping the appliques all together or maybe just putting a few on. The shark is AWESOME!

Air Handling Systems
Introduction of HVAC
HVAC usually refers to the mechanical system of the building that provides heating, ventilation, and cooling within a building or a premise. This includes air conditioners, blower assembly, and evaporative coil, a compressor and compressor coil, thermostats, ductwork, and filters which help to distribute the conditioned air within a building.
- HVAC designing an execution as per cleanroom standards.
- Cleanroom Partition Panels.
- Industrial air conditioning.
- Laboratory ventilation & air conditioning system.
- Grills & Dampers
Air Handling System
Thermocoat Double Skin Air Handling Units are one of the most versatile and premium products in HVAC. Air Handling Units play an important role in the overall performance of the HVAC system. In view of all theoretical and practical problems, Airtech has developed double skin units suitable for multiple applications. A self-supporting extruded aluminum framework with injected PUF insulated panels provides strength and rigidity.
Airtech AHUs range from 500 CFM to 50000 CFM. The base unit consists of a fan section, coil section, filter section, and mixing box.
Pre Fabricated Ducts
Available with us, is a quality proven range of air circulation systems that is used for rapidly ventilating an enclosed area with fresh external air. Offered in standard and dual-mode operations, these air circulation systems are offered to our clients in standard and customized specifications.
The Mode of operation of the dual circulation systems in mentioned below:
- Multiple barriers operate to create two airflow pathways.
- Two return air duct apertures are opened to expose the return air duct to an external air supply area via a fresh air duct.
- The fresh air duct includes an opening to the external air supply area.
- Two extensions are coupled to the return air duct apertures.
- Simultaneous operation of barriers to block the return air duct between the two return air duct apertures.
- This helps in the formation of two distinct return air duct segments
the central air unit and exit fan cooperate with the barriers.
- This establishes two airflow pathways through the return air duct segments.
- First one is for extending the airflow pathway from the external sir supply area to the fresh air duct through the first, return air duct segment directly into the enclosed area before removal by the exit fan.
- The second airflow pathway extends from the external air supply area to the fresh air duct through the second return air duct segment through the central air unit through a supply duct into the enclosed area before removal by the exit fan.
