46th New York Film Festival Announces Special Events
The New York Film Festival is quickly approaching, and the Film Society of Lincoln Center has sent me their announcement on all the various HBO Films Dialogues, panel discussions and other special screening events for its 46th annual festival. Last year, the NYFF made it into The Film Panel Notetaker's top 10 panels of 2007. Seems like they have a lot of great talks planned this year, so hopefully they'll be back on the list for 2008. Here's their announcement:
NEW YORK, Sept. 3, 2008––The Film Society of Lincoln Center’s 46th New York Film Festival will host a variety of dialogues, panels, anniversary and special event screenings, and an inventive photographic exhibition during this year’s decisive look at contemporary cinema, Sept. 26 to Oct. 12. Events include festival filmmakers Jia Zhangke, Darren Aronofsky and Arnaud Desplechin at the annual HBO Films Dialogues, in-depth conversations with festival curators and audience members on the careers and current output of some of cinema’s most dynamic talents; Martin Scorsese introducing and discussing the Technicolor presentation of Albert Lewin’s simmering romance, “Pandora and the Flying Dutchman;” and Alloy Orchestra presenting the New York premiere of their newest score in accompaniment to a new print of the silent film classic, “The Last Command.” Additionally, prominent film critics from around the world will discuss both the current state and the future of film criticism, while a panel debating the nature and significance of the freedom of the press will follow a screening of the new documentary, “It’s Hard Being Loved by Jerks.”
The popular HBO Films Dialogues return to the New York Film Festival to bring celebrated artists together with their audiences to discuss both their the stylistic and career distinctions and the issues raised by their new films. “24 City” director Jia Zhangke will join LA Weekly film critic and festival selection committee member Scott Foundas to talk about his influences at home and abroad and the changing face of China, his native country, fresh off hosting its first Olympic games, Sunday, Sept. 28, at 4:00 p.m. Festival favorite Wong Kar-wai will discuss his working methods and the evolution of the themes that run through his work with Village Voice film critic and festival selection committee member J. Hoberman, Sunday, Oct. 5, at 4:00 p.m. Brooklyn-native Darren Aronofsky is honored as this year’s Closing Night director for his film “The Wrestler.” He will be onstage with Film Society program director and festival selection committee chair Richard Peña, Saturday, Oct. 11, at 1:30 p.m. “A Christmas Tale” director Arnaud Desplechin will talk about the themes and creative partnerships that continue to motivate him with Film Comment editor-at-large and festival selection committee member Kent Jones, Saturday, Oct. 11, at 4:30 p.m.
All HBO Films Dialogues will be held at the Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse, on the 10th floor of Lincoln Center’s Samuel B. & David Rose Building, adjacent to the Walter Reade Theater.
The first special event at the Walter Reade Theater will be Film Criticism in Crisis?, a discussion hosted by Film Comment magazine, Saturday, Sept. 27, at 1:00 p.m. The panel brings together critics from around the world and close to home to discuss the current state and future of film criticism. Participants include critic Jonathan Rosenbaum, Cahiers du cinéma editor Emmanuel Burdeau, Film Comment editor-at-large Kent Jones, GreenCine Daily blog editor David Hudson, Argentine film critic Pablo Suarez, among others. A reception will follow the event. Film Criticism in Crisis? is sponsored by Sardinia Region Tourism.
The annual festival showcase Views from the Avant-Garde will host a 30th anniversary screening of Guy Debord’s “In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni” (France, 1978; 100m) on Friday, Oct. 3, at 6:30 p.m. With a palindrome title roughly translated as “we spin around the night consumed by fire,” the film “is not so much difficult as a pure act of negation from the founder of the Situationist International,” says Kent Jones, associate director of programming at the Film Society and a member of the New York Film Festival selection committee. The film uses images from magazines, comics and popular films to critique a media-dominated society, a process defined by Debord as “détournement.” Yet, says Jones, the work also affirms “our ability to build on the best rather than the worst in mankind, to create a true Utopia rather than a paltry counterfeit. Without exaggeration, this is one of the most provocative experiences you’ll ever have at the movies.”
On Monday, Oct. 6, at 6:00 and 8:30 p.m., the New York Film Festival offers music fans, silent film aficionados and movie lovers a unique treat: two chances to see a new 35mm print of Josef von Sternberg’s 1928 classic “The Last Command” (USA, 1928; 88m), accompanied by the New York premiere of Alloy Orchestra’s newest score. Emil Jannings stars in the film alongside Evelyn Brent and William Powell as a once-decorated Russian general who must relive the revolution that deposed him as an extra in a Hollywood film directed by a one-time opponent. Jannings’s performance contributed to his earning the first-ever Oscar for Best Actor, while the film was added to the National Film Registry in 2006. Alloy Orchestra works with untraditional objects to create unique and soulful music for silent film scores. The ensemble has performed live at celebrated arts venues throughout the world. These screenings are made possible through the generosity of the Ira M. Resnick Foundation. Tickets are $20.
Filmmaker Martin Scorsese will be onstage to introduce and discuss the festival’s In Glorious Technicolor screening of “Pandora and the Flying Dutchman” (Albert Lewin, UK, 1951; 122m) at the Walter Reade Theater, Friday, Oct. 10, at 6:15 p.m.The film, a reworking of the tale of the Flying Dutchman set on the Spanish coast, stars one of cinema’s most explosive onscreen couples, James Mason as Hendrik the Dutchman and Ava Gardner as Pandora. Directed by one of cinema’s most unusual talents, designed by director-to-be Clive Donner and shot by the great cinematographer Jack Cardiff, it has been painstakingly restored to its original Technicolor glory by George Eastman House in cooperation with The Douris Corporation, with funding provided by The Film Foundation and the Franco-American Cultural Fund. This screening is made possible by The Film Foundation and American Express Preservation Screening Program.
The festival’s second anniversary screening remembers one of cinema history’s forgotten masterworks, “The Day Shall Dawn” (A.J. Kardar, Pakistan, 1959; 87m), on Saturday, Oct. 11, at 6:30 p.m. Fifty years ago, a group of film enthusiasts inspired by the example of Satyajit Ray in India banded together to make Pakistan’s first experiment with realist cinema. Walter Lassally, a key figure in Britain’s Free Cinema movement, handled the camera for director and screenwriter A.J. Kardar’s story of a family of fishermen working along the Padma River that attempts to break out of a vicious cycle of exploitation by acquiring a boat. The film was awarded a gold medal at the Moscow Film Festival and received several glowing reviews by international critics. Yet it was soon almost completely forgotten, as Pakistani cinema headed into another, very different direction. The Film Society thanks Anjum Taseer for making this screening possible.
On the festival’s final day, the Film Society hosts an expert panel following Daniel Leconte’s new documentary “It’s Hard Being Loved by Jerks” (“C’est dur d’etre aimé par des cons,” France, 2008; 119m), investigating “the first major legal battle of the 21st century” and an issue all democratic societies will continue to face, at the Walter Reade Theater, Sunday, Oct. 12, at 1:00 p.m. In 2006, the French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo published 12 cartoons satirizing Islamic fundamentalism, including a rendering of a distraught Muhammad with a thought balloon lamenting, “It’s hard being loved by jerks.” Several Islamic organizations sued editor Philippe Val for slander. Leconte documents the trial, chronicling the various legal strategies and capturing an array of social commentators to remark on the event’s impact and long-term effects. After the screening, the filmmaker will join Carol Becker, writer, culture critic and dean of the School of the Arts, Columbia University; Marshall Cohen, professor of philosophy and provost emeritus of philosophy and law, University of Southern California; and others on stage to discuss the concerns raised by the film.
Finally, from Sept. 15 to Oct. 12, the Film Society’s Frieda and Roy Furman Gallery will host the photographic exhibitions Brief Histories Of… and Correspondence Course(s) by filmmaker, author and visual artist Mark Rappaport. Both photomontage essays gather frames from popular movies and re-assemble them in new juxtapositions. The stills refer to the old narrative from which the images were taken, but the viewer is invited to read them and the story they create with fresh eyes. As Mark Rappaport puts it, “It’s a leapfrogging, zigzagging, hopscotching, time-traveling, three-dimensional chess game through film history.” The Frieda and Roy Furman Gallery is adjacent to the Walter Reade Theater. It is free to the public, and open daily 1:30 to 6:00 p.m.
Except where noted, tickets for the HBO Films Dialogues and Walter Reade Theater special events are $16. They can be purchased online at filmlinc.com, at the Walter Reade Theater box office, at the Avery Fisher Hall box office, and over the phone via Centercharge (212.721.6500).
Presented by the Film Society, the annual New York Film Festival showcases new works by both emerging talents and internationally recognized artists, including numerous New York, U.S., and world premieres. The majority of the festival screenings will be held at the Ziegfeld Theatre, 141 West 54th St. (Please note: the Ziegfeld Theatre is not wheelchair accessible. For further information please call 212-875-5610). Opening and Closing Night screenings will be held at Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall, on the corner of Columbus Avenue and 65th St. Additional screenings and events will take place at the Film Society’s Walter Reade Theater, 165 West 65th St. close to Amsterdam Ave. More information is available at filmlinc.com.
The Film Society of Lincoln Center was founded in 1969 to celebrate American and international cinema, to recognize and support new directors, and to enhance the awareness, accessibility and understanding of film. Advancing this mandate today, the Film Society hosts two distinguished festivals. The New York Film Festival annually premieres films from around the world and has introduced the likes of François Truffaut, R.W. Fassbinder, Jean-Luc Godard, Pedro Almodóvar, Martin Scorsese, and Wong Kar-Wai to the United States. New Directors/New Films, co-presented by the Museum of Modern Art, focuses on emerging film talents. Since 1972, when the Film Society honored Charles Chaplin, the annual Gala Tribute celebrates an actor or filmmaker who has helped distinguish cinema as an art form. Additionally, the Film Society presents a year-round calendar of programming at its Walter Reade Theater and offers insightful film writing to a worldwide audience through Film Comment magazine.
Please note: Due to construction work taking place around Lincoln Center, access to the Walter Reade Theater is at 165 West 65th Street close to Amsterdam Avenue. Once there, take the escalator, elevator or stairs to the upper leve

New York's Fiscal Crisis: The Governor’s Upstate Town Hall Meeting
Tue, 11/11/2008 - 9:00pm
Governor David Paterson holds a second town hall meeting at Crouse Hinds Theater at the Syracuse Civic Center on November 11, 2008 to discuss New York’s fiscal crisis. WXXI-TV 21 (cable 11) will carry the special broadcast, New York's Fiscal Crisis: The Governor’s Upstate Town Hall Meeting, on Tuesday, November 11 at 9 p.m. It will also air on City 12 (cable 12 for city residents only) on 11/14 at 1 p.m., 11/15 at 8 p.m. and 11/16 at 7 p.m. Moderated by Susan Arbetter, host of New York public television’s weekly series New York Now, an audience of several hundred people will be participating in a frank question and answer session with Governor Paterson.
A follow-up to the town hall meeting held in New York City on November 5, 2008, this second meeting takes place just a week before the State Legislature returns to Albany for a special session called by Governor Paterson to address the State’s growing fiscal crisis.


A revolutionary solution to combat dust-related issues in open-air stockyards and operation sites has been unveiled. The new fog cannon machine, based on the principle of air delivery, is set to significantly improve dust management efforts.
One of the key features of the fog cannon machine is its ability to produce micron-level water mist. This fine water mist is generated by a specialized spray unit that operates at different pressures and flow control settings for water and air. The resulting mist particles are exclusive and independent, enhancing their effectiveness in combining with dust particles.
The machine utilizes a two-step process to ensure maximum coverage and longer distance reach. Firstly, an imported high-pressure pump and fine atomizing nozzle are employed to atomize the water. Following this, the fan’s air volume and pressure propel the atomized water mist to greater distances. As a result, the water mist can effectively cover a larger area, delivering a comprehensive dust reduction solution.
Furthermore, the water mist, after reaching its target area, condenses and causes dust particles to fall. This achieves the desired outcome of dust reduction. This innovative approach is expected to address the limitations of previous water spraying methods, such as limited coverage area and excessive water consumption, which have yielded unsatisfactory results in the past.
Companies operating in sectors facing operation dust and fugitive dust challenges will greatly benefit from this advanced fog cannon machine. With its enhanced capabilities and optimized design, it promises significant improvements in dust management and air quality control.
In conclusion, the introduction of this advanced fog cannon machine marks a crucial development in the fight against dust-related issues in open-air stockyards and operation sites. By utilizing micron-level water mist and air delivery principles, this technology offers a comprehensive and effective solution for dust reduction, revolutionizing current dust management practices.

Rod Crawford <firstname.lastname@example.org>
In real life, after sustaining a back injury as a result of an accident while filming The Perils of Pauline, Pearl White used a stunt-double, although this was never publicized until after he himself died as a result of an accident during the making of Plunder, at which time the truth came out, and Pearl retired from films and moved to Paris, where she died in 1938 as a result of a liver ailment, alcoholism and drugs. In the film, Pearl's accident occurs on the Paris stage after her film career was over, and we are led to believe that now, unable to walk, she lived happily ever after with her fictitious husband.

Any movie with Betty Hutton in it is worth watching.
Don't expect The Perils of Pauline' to cast much truth on the real Pearl White. In line with similar movies of the period, it's entertainment first and truth a distant second. What you do get is the irrepressible Betty Hutton, a kind of female Mickey Rooney. You also get Billy DeWolfe and William Demarest and those three make this movie worth the price of admission. Betty may bear a resemblance to other blondes of the period but it would take a hard hearted viewer not to like her. She's that kind of girl and rarely has an actress worked so hard in a part.
There are some good scenes; the movie factory gets my vote. This has been done both before and since but rarely so effectively. Bill Demarest overacts superbly as her manager, as does Billy DeWolfe as her best pal. The weak link is John Lund. Okay, maybe he's supposed to be that way. I just didn't think he was effective. The movie falls away in the last third but despite that, it's worth viewing. Betty belts out I Wish I Didn't Love Him So' but it's not a particularly memorable song from Frank Loesser.
Five years after this movie, Betty would walk out on her Paramount contract and destroy her career. Like a number of memorable actresses of the great studio period, her star burnt brightly before going out forever. If you see her name in a cast list, on a movie long-forgotten, don't miss it.

Thanks to your generosity, LMSG hosted its first ever PTSD Spiritual R & R at Camp Phillip, WI the first weekend in May!
“My veteran buddy and I meet once a week. Each time we walk away with the same assignments: I am responsible for seeing to it that he stays alive for a week; and he is to make sure I am still among the living seven days from now.”
The words don’t seem so strange when considering the report that the average suicide rate among American military veterans is one per hour—every day of the year.
On the first weekend of May, the Lutheran Military Support Group (LMSG) sponsored a retreat at Camp Phillip, Wautoma, Wis., for veterans facing post-traumatic stress.
The opening devotion carried the words of Jesus, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest” (Mark 6:31). Twelve former sailors, soldiers, Marines, and one comfort dog stepped away from the rest of the world to receive mutual support and encouragement. It was a time to refresh body, mind, and soul.
Rev. Jason Hacker, LMSG director at large and pastor at Grace, Waukesha, Wis., arranged the event. Retired Colonel Erik Opsahl, who also faces PTSD, led the group to take a closer look at how the stress disorder invades lives and minds. Painful stories were relayed. Loving comfort was offered. The saying “pain shared is pain divided” was put into practice.
Former strangers, some coming from as far away as Florida, soon found common ground based upon common values, common experiences, and a common faith.
One attendee commented, “Surviving the war is just the beginning. Now we must survive the peace.” Heads nodded in agreement.
Representatives of WELS Military Services and of the Board of Control of the Lutheran Military Support Group shared care and concern from both the Evangelical Lutheran Synod and WELS. The message was, “You have not been forgotten!” One discussion focused upon how congregations and the two church bodies might support military personnel and their families.
Attendees also discussed the difference between the civilian and the military worlds. Regret was expressed over the fact that civilians often do not recognize the needs of active duty and veteran military personnel. But it was also recognized that military people are reluctant to admit their needs to their civilian brothers and sisters.
A review of Bible passages underscored the certain source of spiritual resiliency—something much needed and desired. Closing worship services invited the participants to approach the throne of grace for forgiveness, renewal, and blessing.
The hope is that more such retreats—perhaps in different parts of the country—might be offered. The group is also exploring inviting non-WELS and non-Christian veterans as an outreach opportunity.
Rev. Paul Ziemer, WELS national civilian chaplain to the military and WELS liaison to U.S. Armed Forces

Just under 40 percent of US Marines are refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine, according to data obtained by CNN.
According to the report, 38.9% of Marines – with an average age of 25, putting them at roughly 0.18% risk of death, are refusing to take the jab – which doesn’t prevent one from getting COVID-19, falling ill, or transmitting it. Who could have guessed that extraordinarily fit people with a minimal chance of death don’t want to inject the most rushed vaccine in history.
“The Navy and Marine Corps are providing substantial educational information broadly, and working with commands to ensure Marines, Sailors, and beneficiaries have accurate information regarding the safety and efficacy of the vaccines to encourage individuals to get immunized,” said Marines spokesman, Capt. Andrew Wood, in a statement to The Hill, adding “We continue to make the vaccine available to Marines, Sailors, civilians, contractors and authorized beneficiaries based on the prioritization schedule listed in the [Department of Defense] population schema.”
According to the data, approximately 75,500 marines have been vaccinated, while 48,000 have declined. The overall acceptance rate is 61.1%. The figures include active-duty, reserves, and the Individual Mobilization Augmentee Marines, according to the CNN report.- READ MORE

SUGAR CANE, BEET ROOT, AND SORG IIUM,
WITH REFERENCE TO THEIR CONSUMPTION AND CULTURE.
SUGAR, which enters so largely into the food of civilized people of the present day, and is so important an element of modern commerce, has only in the last two centuries begun to exercise a political influence, and, in some degree, bias the destinies of nations.
The use of sugar in the East dates from time immemorial, but the barbarians of Western Europe acquired a taste for it only when the returning Crusaders brought it back among other of the marvels which they had encountered when invading the country of the Saracens. In the twelfth century the awakened demand had promoted traffic, and the Saracens introduced its culture into Rhodes, Cypress, Sicily, and the south of Spain. In the rich lands of Andalusia it found a genial soil, and became one of the elements of Spanish greatness, and it added to the commercial importance of the Portuguese. With the enterprise of those nations it passed into the Canaries and Maderias, and followed the fortunes of Columbus to St. Domingo. Its culture there rewarded the labor of the planter in a manner to astonish even those who had been familiar with the rich yield in the fields of Andalusia. With the increased supply of sugar the market widened, and the people of Western Europe were yearly more anxious to purchase, while the increased prosperity that followed the discovery of America and the opening of the mines of precious metals, gave them the means to indulge in the luxury. From St. Domingo the culture was not slow in finding its way to the other West Indian islands and to the Spanish Main. The Portuguese introduced it into Brazil, and with a good supply of labor the product there reached some 75,000 tons per annum in the middle of the sixteenth century. The nations that bad sought the Arnerican continent in search of gold, found their greatest source of wealth in the “sugar islands," of which St. Domingo remained the chief. The leading West
VOL. XLVIII.NO. I.
ern powers were not long in coveting these possessions, and they changed bands frequently in the course of subsequent wars, through which, in the middle of the 17th century, England became possessed of Jamaica, there being then but three sugar works on the island. The severe labor of the canefield demanded many robust laborers, and England undertook, in a treaty with Spain, to supply those laborers for a given number of years from the coast of Africa. The laborers did not seem to multiply, but were kept up by importation into the islands, from the rich soil of which they extracted that wealth which poured into the laps of Lisbon and Havre and London. The blacks of Africa were mostly purchased with the wares of Lancashire, and were, so to speak, wrought up with tbe soil of the West Indies into sugar, which swelled the volume of European wealth.
It was not until the middle of the eighteenth century that, under French rule, the first plantation was established in Louisiana; and when that great country became a part of the United States there were eighty-one sugar plantations there, which, in some degree, supplied the growin wants of the Western States. Up to that time the sugar used in Europe and America was cane sugar, drawn from the tropics, and its culture had spread into most of the known tropical regions of the earth. The market for sugar had become so extensive, and the people of Europe so accustomed to its use that it had become a necessity. Wben, therefore, the wars that grew out of the French revolution gave the supremacy of the seas to England, that power held the supply of sugar in her grasp, and Europe depended upon her for a supply, as it has latterly upon the Southern States for cotton. That accident of war, however, revolutionized the sugar trade in Europe. The great demand for the article stimulated invention, and the French Emperor offered a liberal reward for a substitute for cane sugar. A great number of substitutes presented themselves, but none proved successful except that made from beet root, and this, in the course of a few years, has become a rival to the cane sugar in the consumption of Europe. In France, particularly, the consumption of sugar is of three descriptions : that of cane, produced in the French and in foreign colonies, and beet root sugar made in France. The consumption of the latter in 1831, was 10,000 tons against 81,651 of cane. At present it is 120,000 tons against 80,000 tons of cane. In other words, the whole increase of the consumption of sugar in France has been derived from beet root. This mastery of the latter article over the former was attended by a long struggle between the opposing interests. At first beet root was protected against cane. They were then placed on an equality, and finally government favor leaned upon the side of cane sugar, without, however, staying the success of the beet root manufacture, which has spread into all the countries of Europe. The great success of the beet root culture led to numberless experiments upon other vegetables, in order to develope some still cheaper and more effectual method of producing the desired article, and these efforts were more or less successful. Chemistry distinguishes two leading sugars. That furnished by cane is found to be identical with that yielded by many other vegetables, such as certain trees of the palm family, the chestnut, the maple, Indian corn stalks, and many roots, of which the chief, in point of value, is the beet. The other sugar is contained in grapes, pears, apples, melons, and most kinds of fruit. This species of sugar (glucose) will not granulate or crystalize like that of cane; but it is made in considerable quantities for certain uses, of which the most important is to mix with grape juice in those seasons when that fruit has less than the desired quantity for the production of good wine. The first mentioned sugar is that generally known to commerce. It is in the United States largely produced from the maple for home use of families. The production of it has in the last few years been greatly stimulated by the advanced price of all sugars. The quantity of maple sugar produced in the United States at the date of the last census was 34,252,436 lbs. Of this, one balf was produced in the States of New York and Vermont. New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Michigan produced nearly the remaining half
. This sugar is manufactured from the forest trees, and cannot properly be called a culture which can be extended at will, although it affords large employment in the districts where it exists in winter months.
The attention of French science was devoted to the other vegetables which were likely to be available for the use of sugar boilers. The success of M. BRACONNET, of Nancy, at one tiine caused a great sensation. He had, by the aid of concentrated sulphuric acid, transmuted flax, hemp, certain woods, and straw into that description of sugar called “glucose," pound for pound. The news of this discovery, like that of Paine's invention to make illuminating gas out of water, set the public aghast. Sugar was to be within the reach of all, and the imagination found material for sugar in the strangest associations-old sails, ropes, furniture, and cast-off summer clothing were to be turned into frost-work for wedding cakes, into confectionary for the old and sugar plums for the young. Coffee was to be sweetened with straw and candy sucked out of old shirts. A practical turn was given to the expression, a “sweet sleep,” since the linen sheets and the straw bed were both waiting transmutation into the sugar bowl ; after having made sleep peaceful it was to make food palatable, and the fancy ran riot in the wealth of sugar that abounded, but only to be disappointed, since no valuable results have yet flowed from the experiments then considered so important.
There were also efforts to vary the objects of sugar culture. Melons and corn stalks were used with some success, but the yield of juice was not sufficiently large to be profitable. In 1851, M. DE MONTIGNY, French consul in China, had his attention drawn to the plants from which sugar in the North of China is extracted—sorgho, or holeus saccharatus-and be sent some of the seeds to his government. These were planted in Algiers and Provence, and subsequent experiments excited great hopes from the culture. The Toulon Agricultural Association subjected it to numerous experiments, from which it resulted that the plant was capable of producing a crystalized syrup that might rival that of the cane and the beet. The juice of the sorgho furnishes three important products : sugar identical with cane, alcohol, and a fermented drink analogous to cider.
The plant grown in France was said to be richer in saccharine principle than any known plant except the vine. Beet root contains 8 to 10 per cent of sugar, and sorgho 16 to 20 per cent, from which 10 per cent of pure alcohol could be produced. The refuse was regarded as very desirable food for cattle. On the strength of these researches the culture was greatly extended in France. On trial, however, on a large scale it
a was not found to answer expectations in respect to sugar. It was determined, nevertheless, that it could yield alcohol 30 per cent cheaper than
beet root, consequently it supplanted to some extent those factories which had devoted themselves to alcohol rather than to sugar, and they turned their attention exclusively to sugar.
The seeds of twenty-one varieties of the sorgho plant were received in 1854 at the Patent Oflice at Washington, and were distributed through the country for use. The peculiarities of the plant, its resemblance in appearance and habits to Indian corn, led to the inference that it would flourish in any region where that plant would thrive. This inference has been justified in the results. The plant is cultivated much in the manner of corn. It grows from 7 to 14 feet high, and, it is asserted, gives a heavier weight of fodder from the same piece of ground than any
other plant. There are a great many varieties of it, the most conspicuous of which is the African, or imphee; but it is supposed that the apparent variation arises only from climate and location—that sorgho, imphee, broom corn, and dourah are all of the same origin, andropogon sorghum. There are, as in corn, many varieties, which require longer time to ripen than others, and those wbich mature at the earliest time are the most desirable, since it is requisite that the plants should fully ripen their seeds to produce granulating juice abundantly.

Much like the contents of a perfume bottle, my thoughts towards perfumery are unknown, mysterious and confusing. Having only just begun the voyage into perfumery – thanks to my residency at Bank Street Arts – it is perhaps understandable that any ideas and theories towards how to proceed feel unverified, contradictory and most probably incorrect.
In an attempt to contribute new thinking to how perfume can be utilised I am developing my relationship with perfume in relation to three things – vision, ideas and language.
As a an artist, there is a sense of intuition to how I utilise vision in my work. And of course vision takes precedence over the other senses, but our lives would be pretty impossible without utilising other senses too. The problem is, we are so dependant on vision that we must comprehend each sense in relation to it. Even language is often framed in relation to vision – we are often required to visualise the sentence we are reading, we are not often required to imagine to taste it. Indeed, language struggled to describe the olfactory senses without reverting to metaphor. When we say that cheese tastes sharp, we don’t mean it’s covered in razor blades, and when we describe a 1970’s living room carpet as ‘loud’ we don’t literally mean it is making noise.
Advertisements too, often revert to abstraction in a way which bears no relation to the product when the product is based on taste and scent. From the gorilla banging on a drum for Cadbury’s to a woman climbing up a bit of cloth towards a cityscape for Dior’s ‘J’adore’advertisements. Both these advertisements attempt to convey the sensation of the product, or the products’ effect upon the consumer. But they fail to describe the actual product in any meaningful way. Perhaps they don’t need too, but it is fascinating how attempts to convey non-visual products in a visual way often resorts to abstraction.
Indeed, it’s not as if you can’t describe non-visual entities using language – There are descriptive words for the olfactory senses, such as tangy and bitter. Language is able to transcend the senses, with the capacity to use words associated with any given thoughts, associations and experiences: That’s because we experience the world in a way which transcends the notion of 5 senses, we instead experience the world in a much more all-encompassing and immersive way, existing in relation to everything else. Language is able to accept and understand this, and as such is add odds with the somewhat rigdid notion that we use our 5 senses to understand the world.
This tension between the transience of language and the ridged concept of the 5 senses is something worth exploring, as it might allow me to understand why visual ideas become halted within the creative process: Perhaps they need to be approached without preconceived notions of vision and need to be assessed in relation to other senses. Language is able to accommodate all senses and as such can be exploited to convey meaning.
The image above shows some essential oil dripped onto blotting strips, but rather than telling the audience what scent of the oil is, I have described how the oil makes me feel. Feeling, of course, being something precedent when any sense is utilised. This is a visual description of what I have been talking about: Language is a tool that over-arches the senses – allowing the senses to be accepted as one collective and all-encompassing way of understanding the world.

Can I wall myself up into it, shut my eyes, and say: I don’t have to worry about climate change?
“We don’t have to worry about climate change.” It’s an offhand comment, inspired by faux science cited in some inconsequential YouTube comment and legitimized through a filter of ten-year-old naïveté.
My dad, eyes fixed on the TV screen, barely acknowledges it. “Very funny,” he says, already moving into the next moment.
But I’m still rooted in the urgency of this new information. “No, I’m serious,” I say, “I was reading, and it’s just the natural sun cycles making the Earth hotter. It’s what’s supposed to happen. We’re worrying about nothing.” This was the big sell. Even then I understood how words were more than an arrangement of shapes and sounds, how certain collections of syllables and phrases were like incantation; to speak was to harness magic, and these particular words cast dark anxieties into sunbeds of relief. The trick was repetition, that tool of wordsmiths and Wiccans. If my dad could say these words too, perhaps we could banish the beast.
He says instead: “I can’t believe what I’m hearing.”
We don’t have to worry about climate change. We don’t have to worry about climate change. I don’t have to worry about climate change—at this point I still want to be an artist when I grow up. I imagine galleries filled with drawings, maybe a family there too; I imagine worrying about adult things, mundane things like paying taxes and the grocery budget. I can reify this future, shape it with rounded lips, feel it tumbling from the tip of my tongue; I can wall myself up into it, shut my eyes, and say: I don’t have to worry about climate change.
As cold fear dissolves into incanted denial I can feel this future, feel the pulse of it like my heartbeat under my hand. Later I’ll come to believe climate change is nature’s way of reminding humanity of its place where we’ve forgotten it, our existential predator, the unveiling of something resting above us on the food chain. But right now, I don’t have the words to describe the way it feels, casting my eyes downward to avoid looking up into the folds of the pall. I imagine my future in the way that a writer imagines the lives of fictional characters, willing away that dark predatory mass, the watching eyes of some indefinable and terrible truth. Climate change bares its teeth and the ancient instincts we’ve never quite forgotten tell us: run.
“I’m serious, Dad. It’s what I believe. Climate change isn’t really happening.”
In time comes the realization that growing up is an act of inheritance, that I am running to an abstract murky nowhere, that living is looking and “future” is irrevocably entangled with the terrifying somewheres of a world handed down; there is a wave, a tide, a crescendo—
Blood roars in my ears. My throat is tight, skin taut, as if there was a hand around it squeezing my windpipe where angry tears are rolled up and threatening to spill out. “Don’t worry. We’re not at the point of no return,” she says. As if it’s a consolation.
My heart thrums out of step with the rhythm of my mother’s words. It didn’t start out as an argument, but lately to discuss the news with me is also to engage with the undercurrents of my adolescent inquiry. She doesn’t know I see myself in the headlines I recite like prayers, that the gaping spaces between words of newsprint are like eyes, slits of eyes staring at me from between stalks of bushes in some godless night, and the noise I want to make is primal, guttural, senseless. To my mother I am babbling, panicked and disjointed statistics the language of a fear she can’t ever really understand—
Breath hitches in my throat. The scientific consensus grips sacred imaginations in a stranglehold. Ordinary woman, ordinarily happy, flickers and gasps—
Multitudes of anger collapse into a singularity. There is only now and the future is an infinity; it was born of this moment and will die in the next. “What do you mean, ‘Don’t worry.’ The science is right there…”
Maybe if I vote right.
If I eat right.
Maybe if I let Siri, my friend—so passionate and smart—maybe if I let her care about climate change and listen to her when she talks about it, I’ll have done enough. Solutions are out there, after all. She’s just one of the many people who knows what they are, who can tell the rest of us what to do. Let’s make a deal, your knowledge for my delusions.
The time of death comes just after social studies, when Siri cries while telling me we’ll have used up all our resources for the year by August. The voices in the hallway meld together and then dissolve into an echo; my head swims with fading sounds of easy laughter.
There’s a reflective pitter-patter of rain against the window panels of the bus. It’s one of those days where I feel as though if I’m not careful in the world I could drown in it; there is a great noise around us, and a great silence between us. Siri has just said these words: “I’m not sure I even want kids. I mean, when you think about it—think about what the world’s gonna look like by that point… I read a report that said the desertification of the Midwest could lead to massive food shortages by the time we’d be old enough to have kids.” The bus is speeding through the vastness of a cornfield, lush stalks, endless, blurring together in the rush of rain and distance. So much I can’t make out a beginning or an end. The edges of my horizon are defined by what I stand to lose.
In the silence I picture the childhood I had. It wasn’t happy, exactly, but it was plentiful; I never knew the hollow of hunger or the cold fear of war. My parents, shrouded in the normalcy of relative peace, assumed in having children that I, too, would have a peaceful existence, that I would experience life within the normal parameters of suburban fear and personal joy. The pits of the stock market and drops of the stomach upon sights of far-away refugees would be the troughs of my existence. Graduations, marriage, children would be the peaks. I imagined for myself the kinds of lives they had: the blessing of being undefined by any particular history, of being ultimately forgettable. Peace is quite mundane.
In the moment, I nod. What else is there to do but nod? This is the way the world ends, not with a whimper, but a nod. Too big to fit inside a school bus on a Wednesday morning. Too few words to shroud the body of the dead future. Grief’s name gets lost in the stupor.
The feeling’s there, though.
Conversation plods forward. I sink into the sound of the rain.
It catches me off guard, sometimes. I’ll be watching some sitcom on Netflix or joking around with my roommate and I’ll get a news alert on my phone: “The EEV mosquito-borne illness claims a fourth victim.” And everything falls apart.
Canned laughter swells and fades, my room disappears around me; the tide comes in and I inhale fear, choke on it, and drown in it. Search engines and tapping fingers and blurred paragraphs of articles scrolling faster overwhelm my vision, and my thoughts are interrupted with memories of swelling mosquito bites everywhere, with the jokes of my childhood summers: “Oh, don’t even bother with the bug spray, they’ll bite her no matter what.” And ,“If Hannah’s around, I won’t get bitten at all!”
I gasp for air. Preventative measures include using insect repellent (never worked), wearing layers (they bit through my clothes), mosquito netting (and I can’t help but think how fast it happened, how in the space between Netflix and the news, the gates to my future came to bear dystopian insignia).
The inevitability of it presses on my chest.
Later, in the car with my mom, I’m asking her: Will this be how it ends?
And it feels like a premonition.
Other times it’s as natural as the breeze, as the hum of background chatter filling the spaces between conversation. I’m up at a friend’s cabin, and we’re sitting in a small rowboat on the lake. The sky is blue and serene. Puffy white clouds drift gently across the horizon. Sunlight glints off the water, sparkling and clear. Around us, reeds spill off the shoreline and the forest stretches into the distance; the rustling leaves are a chorus, an ode to abundance.
But it is not spectacular. In fact, it is entirely mundane. And for a moment, I wonder if I’m allowed to enjoy it. I feel the weight of some future history watching me in this moment from behind the veil of things I cannot foresee, cannot possibly imagine. How will I be remembered? Does the future contain days like these, made unremarkable by their frequency? Or should I memorize every detail of this sunny quietude, every fleeting sensation? Hold it in memory as long as I can?
And what are my responsibilities to this moment? Do I owe the future my consciousness, or can I lift it into the ground with my friends, bury all expectations and preparations, and laugh with them instead?
Weeks later, on a walk with my mom, I am arrested by the sight of a butterfly. Its wings glint in the sunlight and it flutters in the wind, and a smile breaks across my face. I point. “Look, Mom—look, a monarch.” She sighs in awe, and we come close to sharing the moment.
The butterfly floats between long cattails, flashing brilliant oranges and bright yellows and a sparkling black. Its antennae quiver in the breeze. We watch as it settles on a stalk of lavender, as it flaps its wings once, twice, as it catches the tail of a sunbeam. Neither of us speak. My heart seizes, for a moment, when it begins to flutter away; I watch as it is lifted by the breeze and the light, becoming smaller and smaller until gone.
I will remember what butterflies looked like.

Ok, so I'm planning to build up a new dirt jumper/urban bike sometime soon (tax refund time). Right now I'm not quite sure on a frame, but the Transition Trail or Park looks pretty bombin'. For the time being I'm going to transfer over most of the parts off my STP.
I'm kinda curious about BMX cranks and BBs. Having never ridden or wrenched on BMX bikes in the past, they are completely new to me. It seems that some manufacturers are including them stock on DJ bikes. I see alot of BMX cranks are 4130, so I'd assume they're stronger, but what about the BB. From what I can tell, you have to put a spacer in the BB shell to insure proper bearing preload. What if the shell isn't exactly 68 or 73mm wide though (ie. 67.6mm)? Would the bearings be improperly preloaded?
Does anyone here run a BMX setup on their mountain bike? How's it working out for ya?
Oh . . . just saw this. FSA's X-Drive and the nearly-identical On One BMX-splined BB come with a ton of spacers/shims (in addition to the main long center spacer) to get everything dialed. When I find the right link, I'll edit my post.
you can get euro bb for 19mm or 22mm spindles. you would have to check on the spacer situation and you might have cut one or use a pipe. you would want to be as precise as possible so that the inner bearing race is supported. i guess nearly any bmx crank could work. look at bb, cranks, etc at www.danscomp.com too
this place seems to have some cool cranks:

Humidification of Central Asia and equatorward shifts of westerly winds since the late Pliocene
|Corresponding Author||Yang，Hu; Liu，Qingsong|
The production, transport, and deposition of mineral dust exert major influences on climate change and Earth’s biogeochemical cycles. Furthermore, their imprint, as recorded in pelagic sediments, provides an avenue for determining past changes in terrestrial aridity and atmospheric circulation patterns in response to global climate change. Here, by examining geochemical and magnetic data obtained from a ferromanganese crust in the western Pacific Ocean, we investigate the eolian dust source-region conditions and dust transport mechanisms from the Asian interior to the Pacific Ocean since the Pliocene. We identify a gradual provenance change in the dust source regions, from a dominant Gobi Desert source during the early Pliocene to a mixed Gobi-Taklimakan Desert source during the late Pliocene and Pleistocene, alongside increasing chemical weathering in those source areas. Climate model simulations suggest that these changes were related to an equatorward shift of the westerly jet and humidification of Central Asia during the gradual transition from a warm Pliocene climate to the cool Pleistocene.

General Motors' Captiva facelift may have made its world debut at the Paris Motor show in 2010 but India got the first glimpse of the car only at the Auto Expo last month. The event was an unveiling and not a launch. Now GM India has discussed roll out plans with Financial Chronicle by saying that the a late March launch is in order to boost premium segment sales.
GM India presently sells the CBU Captiva with a 2L diesel engine (used on the Cruze and Optra Magnum). The new Captiva is more than just a facelift - it will be powered by a new 2.2-liter 184bhp engine giving it even more grunt to compete against the likes of the CR-V, the upcoming Pajero Sport and the Santa Fe.
The company is not considering local manufacturing immediately and will determine the timeline only if the car shifts significant volumes.
As far as pricing is concerned, the new Captiva will be priced somewhere between 20 to 22 lakh rupees whereas the current one retails at 18.84 to 20.2lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The company currently manages to sell less than 100 units a month and will be hoping a better show with the new model's launch.
The new Captiva gets a new sporty exterior look with a bold new face that marks the new design statement for Chevrolet. On the interiors, you get three rows of theater-like seating for 7 passengers. The 2.2L engine is paired either to new manual or six-speed auto gearbox.


From everything I can find online it appears to be my idle air control valve, but when I brought this up to a mechanic during some other repairs he seemed to dismiss it. I also removed the IAC to make sure it wasn't burned out; it looks fine and moves in and out when the car is started and different gears are selected.
The IAC valve malfunction is one of 3 check engine codes in my computer right now(P0505). The others are P0170 and P0400. It's an expensive part so I want to make sure that it is causing the problem before I buy it.
have the same problem?

The Texas State Securities Board has filed an emergency cease and desist order against Abra, a cryptocurrency lending firm, on June 15. Based on its investigations, the regulator found Abra and related parties committed fraud and made misleading statements. Abra had suggested it was a “crypto bank”, but it does not have a Texas bank charter, is not licensed to operate in Texas, and does not provide FDIC deposit insurance.
The regulator also found that Abra and related parties “secretly” transferred holdings to Binance.com and held over $118 million on the platform as of February 2023. Abra had failed to disclose the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s and Commodity and Futures Trading Commission’s ongoing cases against Binance and related parties, misleading customers.
Abra made numerous other fraudulent and misleading statements, according to the regulator’s filing. During the investigation on March 31, 2023, Abra’s various parties were “collectively insolvent or nearly insolvent”. The regulator has ordered Abra’s various companies and CEO to cease and desist from engaging in fraudulent offerings in Texas and from making misleading statements. It also seeks to have Abra and related parties pay a fine and return funds to customers.
Abra’s response and future plans
Abra Earn was discontinued amidst the TSSB’s investigations in October 2022; Abra Boost remains available to accredited and institutional investors in the U.S. The regulator did not specify how Abra should make changes to its offered services.
Plutus Financial, which is doing business as Abra, Abra Boost LLC, and Abra CEO Bill Barhydt have not responded to the filing publicly. The company did not respond to CryptoSlate’s request for comment at press time.
As of now, it is unclear what the future holds for Abra. The company may need to make significant changes to its business practices to continue operating in Texas. It may also face consequences from other regulators in different states or countries. Abra’s customers may also lose trust due to the allegations of fraud and misleading statements.

The NBA is suspending the Chicago Bulls next two games after forward Alize Johnson became the 10th Bulls’ player to land in the COVID-19 protocols.
Chicago’s rapid spreading of the coronavirus began on Dec. 1 when guard Coby White tested positive for COVID-19. The virus quickly transmitted to other players, with teammates Javonte Green, DeMar DeRozan, and Matt Thomas all landing in the NBA’s health and safety protocols.
Playing with a small bench, Chicago lost two consecutive games and things have only worsened for the franchise on the health front. On Sunday, the Bulls announced that Zach LaVine and forward Troy Brown Jr. were entering the COVID-19 safety protocols.
With Johnson entering the protocols on Monday, leaving Chicago with just eight healthy players, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports the NBA is now stepping in.
With the NBA postponing Chicago’s games against the Detroit Pistons (Dec. 14) and Toronto Raptors (Dec. 16), both the league and team are hopeful it allows a few players to return before the next game.
- Chicago Bulls schedule: Dec. 19 vs. Los Angeles Lakers, Dec. 20 vs. Houston Rockets, Dec. 22 vs. Toronto Raptors
DeRozan, Green and White could all receive clearance to return by Sunday. But the NBA will exercise extreme caution to avoid a potential outbreak spreading across multiple teams.

of cooking over charcoals and open flames.
How it works is that you get a chip that is red on one side and green on the other. When
you would like a sample of the meat that is at the table, you would turn your chip to

There is also the Market table which is a variety of dishes that are inspired by Brazilian

Special counsel Jack Smith seeks to prevent Donald Trump’s lawyers from injecting politics into the trial on charges of election interference.
Special counsel Jack Smith has asked a judge to bar Donald Trump’s lawyers from introducing political arguments in the former president’s trial. The trial revolves around allegations that Trump schemed to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Smith’s office argues that such arguments are irrelevant to the determination of guilt or innocence and could prejudice the jury.
Setting Parameters for the Trial
Prosecutors aim to set parameters on what information should be presented to the jury during the trial. In a motion filed with U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, they seek to preclude Trump’s lawyers from raising irrelevant political issues or arguments. This includes claims that the prosecution is vindictive, selective, or coordinated by President Joe Biden. Prosecutors argue that these allegations are not only incorrect but also prejudicial and should be excluded from the trial.
Case on Hold Pending Appeal
The case is currently on hold due to an appeal filed by Trump, claiming immunity from prosecution for actions taken while he was in office. The Supreme Court declined to intervene in the matter, but a federal appeals panel is scheduled to hear arguments on January 9. If the appeals continue, the trial, originally set for March 4, may be postponed.
Trump responded to the motion by accusing Smith’s team of ignoring the law and clear instructions from the judge. He claimed that the motion was filed during a pause in the case and called it a “pathetic” and “illegal” effort to deprive him of his free speech rights at trial. Trump’s lawyers had previously requested the dismissal of the case, arguing that the indictment was vindictive and selective.
Focusing on Facts and the Law
Prosecutors argue that the trial should center on the facts and the law, not politics. They seek to prevent Trump from making certain arguments to the jury, including claims of political persecution and blaming law enforcement agencies for the events of January 6, 2021. The motion also aims to exclude any evidence related to alleged foreign influence in the 2020 election, deeming it irrelevant and potentially confusing for the jury.
State of Mind and Speculative Testimony
While Trump’s state of mind during his efforts to overturn the election results will be a key question for jurors, prosecutors argue that defense lawyers should not be allowed to elicit speculative testimony about his thoughts or beliefs. They contend that such testimony would be irrelevant and potentially misleading.
Special counsel Jack Smith’s motion seeks to prevent Donald Trump’s lawyers from injecting politics into the trial on charges of election interference. Prosecutors argue that political arguments are irrelevant to the determination of guilt or innocence and could prejudice the jury. As the case awaits resolution on the issue of immunity, the trial’s scheduled date of March 4 may be subject to change. The outcome of the trial will hinge on the facts and the law, with prosecutors seeking to exclude arguments that they deem irrelevant or potentially misleading.

New Delhi, July 26 (IANS) The CPI-M on Wednesday demanded a “new law for the protection of privacy of individuals” after the Supreme Court set constitutional limits on the Right to Privacy.
The party urged the central government to “clearly stipulate the penal provision for any violation” causing any breach in the privacy of an individual “as seen in the latest breach of Aadhaar information on websites by Jio”.
It said the concept of qualifications on the right to privacy was understandable as long as they were needed by the government, which might want them to fight crises. “But sharing data with corporates should be rendered a violation.
“What the Supreme Court is discussing is not whether privacy is a fundamental right or not… Today privacy is not an issue between the individual and the government, which wants reasonable restrictions on it in order to combat terrorism,” CPI-M General Secretary Sitaram Yechury told reporters here.
“Data is the biggest asset today for all the corporates and this huge database of the Indian people must be protected,” he said, adding that every individual must be protected from such “mercenary corporate activity”.
At a hearing at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, the central government said the right to privacy was a fundamental right but not all its facets could be elevated to the status of a fundamental right.

I’d like to share this great article from Harvard, that speaks on the effect that the mind can have on the perception of pain. It states, very importantly, that the brain can continue to perceive pain without noxious stimuli; this is called central sensitization, in which the mind is so wired and so used to the perception of pain that it will create the sensation of pain without any external influence.
In chiropractic philosophy, it is said that three things cause subluxation: psychological stress, mechanical stress, and chemical stress. In other words, stress, physical trauma, and toxins will individually and synchronously cause misalignment of the joints of the body. Indeed, the mind can work against us, but what is learned can be unlearned.
In the coming weeks, I will discuss the six techniques overviewed in this article in detail. (I’ve got to put that sport psychology degree to use.)

Rutgers introduces electric scooters to campus
An alternative transportation option is available for students of Rutgers — New Brunswick: electric scooters (e-scooters).
“We wanted to bring in … something like this because we wanted more students to be using this instead of just using the buses,” said Jack Molenaar, senior director of Rutgers Transportation Services. “The buses are overcrowded.”
Right now, there are 300 e-scooters available for use on campus, in scooter stations and other locations that can be tracked using the e-scooter application, “Veo,” Molenaar said.
Molenaar said there would have been more scooters available if the majority of students were living on campus this semester. Alexander Carmenaty, a School of Arts and Sciences first-year, said the new transportation option is convenient for those in New Brunswick this semester.
“Although campus dorming is very limited and campus is not as populated as it usually is, I think it can be an advantage for students who are on campus to travel around,” Carmenaty said.
The e-scooters connect to the app using a QR code that can be scanned using the phone’s camera, and it costs $1 to begin the ride plus 28 cents per minute, Molenaar said.
To help both Veoride and students locate the scooters, Molenaar said there are GPS tracking units on each e-scooter. Veoride also monitors the battery life of each scooter and replaces them when necessary, so students do not have to worry about charging them.
Since the e-scooters arrived on campus, “Veo” has gained approximately 3,100 new users, Molenaar said, with 4,550 rides in the first three days.
Molenaar said Veoride hoped for three scooter rides per scooter per day, and so far, the average has been five.
Erin McGuire, a School of Arts and Sciences junior, said a new method of transportation is welcome given health concerns associated with coronavirus (COVID-19) disease.
“I think it’s a great resource for students to have access to, especially in the time of coronavirus, because Rutgers is still running the bus routes, but being in an enclosed space is not desirable right now,” McGuire said.
McGuire said the bike lanes on the College Avenue campus make it easy to use the scooters and said it may be helpful for students who are in a rush or running late to class.
Molenaar said one of the reasons why the University made an agreement with Veoride to bring e-scooters to campus is because sometimes buses are so full that students cannot get on them, which can make them late to class.
“You couldn’t get on the bus and you needed to get somewhere quickly. There’s a scooter right there,” he said. “You’re like, ‘OK, this is going to cost me a little money, but I’m going to get on that, and I’ll get to where I go faster.’”
The Veoride e-scooters can go 15 miles per hour, but tend to go a bit slower uphill, Molenaar said.
Giuliana Evangelista, a Rutgers Business School first-year, said she thinks Rutgers having the e-scooters is cool, and said they will be beneficial on such a large campus.
“I personally am terrified of falling, but I think others will definitely use this,” she said.
Students must be at least 18 years old to operate one of the e-scooters, Molenaar said. Veoride recommends users wear helmets, but they are not required.
“Just like anything, be safe when you’re using it,” Molenaar said. “Be cognizant of your surroundings.”
Carmenaty said he thinks the new e-scooter program will be more popular when in-person classes resume fully.
“Hopefully, we’ll be on campus next semester,” Carmenaty said. “If we are, I’d be willing to give them a shot, and I’m sure other (students) would too.”


X axis is not accurate: I was running a very thin (.040") Aluminum part taped to an MDF backer board and using a .125" End mill (2 flute) running at about 1000mm/min (I know all these mixed units.. sorry) the part that was supposed to be 1.180" across in the X and it came out 1.135"
I did not realize it until I had a lot of parts... Damn. Thought, I screwed up, but my layout if good. Reboot Axiom and cut one more... nope. Still off.
I'll put a piece of scrap even slower and report back but now I am running out of time so I am posting this now if case somebody has an idea.
Y and Z are fine at +/- about .004" Lead screw is not sloppy
I'll setup a 1" dial and jog 20mm in the X and see if that reads accurate with no load..
Garylyb, You lead me to it. The ganty was good-n-tight. But as I was wriggling things for looseness I found the X lead screw would pull in and out - A lot!. When I took the plastic cover off the side the nut for the lead screw was lying on the floor of that cavity. I put it back on and tightened it up a bit.
I used as much torque as I could muster with a wrench on the nut and my hand grip on the lead screw... I'll say "mot much" torque.
Anybody know if there is a technique and torque spec?

What better way to see this beautiful countryside and mountain passes. Pony riding is one of amusements for the tourists. There is a large open area which is most beautiful with natural scenery and comfortable for horse riding. Gulmarg, Yusmarg, Sonamarg & Pahalgam predominantly provide best horse rides. Horses are abundantly available in all the resorts.
Horses are also used to carry trekkers and trekking equipment to the highlands of the State. There is no better way to get close to the heavens.

The Knicks need a big — not another point guard — but made official the training-camp contracts for PGs Toure’ Murry and Chris Smith J.R. Smith’s brother.
Murry is a 6-5 point guard who excelled at the Las Vegas Summer League after which Knicks GM Glen Grunwald said he expected him at training camp. But the need for a point guard ended when they signed veteran Beno Udrih.
The Knicks like his size and defense but the foot surgery to 6-10 Jeremy Tyler that will likely have him out all of preseason and for the Oct. 30 season opener has the Knicks needing another big off the bench for their 15th man. They have 14 guaranteed contracts including Tyler’s.
One possibility is cutting Murry and Smith after training camp and hope they join the Knicks-run D-League team in Erie to develop them and keep within the system no strings attached. Murry could sign with any team however during the course of the season.
Murry helped lead Rio Grande Valley to the D-League title – the Rockets affiliate...

Therefore, the job of composing an essay on literary works will maybe perhaps maybe perhaps not frighten you any longer.
Analysis for the prose within the essay that is literature
Whenever analyzing a prose text, you need to bear in mind the peculiarities associated with the creative design of message, among which, first, figurativeness is distinguished, along with the utilization of creative way of language. The necessity to pick these funds is dependent upon the author’s intention, the plot of the job, their concept, the peculiarity associated with the figures shown.

Right after my divorce I was depressed. As hard as it may be for me to share, I contemplated suicide. I felt defeated and was in a horrible mindset; at one point I placed all blame on myself because our marriage failed and believed my kids would be better off without me, that no one could possibly love me again, and so on.
These detrimental thoughts consumed my mind and many times I was afraid I could no longer cope with the pain. For those who battle depression, it is a daily struggle. Although I felt like a failure, I knew deep down my children needed their mother to be strong and I couldn’t give up for their sake.
Due to the chaos of divorce, moving, and starting completely over, I neglected my own health and I could feel it. The overwhelming stress consumed me; I lost my appetite and was extremely underweight and unhealthy. I felt sluggish, lethargic, lacked focus, and was definitely not myself. I was indeed at my lowest point, and I felt like I was deteriorating at a rapid pace.
I’ve always been pretty athletic and stayed active throughout my childhood and even as an adult. Physical exercise was a huge part of my life, but after my divorce, life happened, and I stopped exercising altogether. Big mistake.
A Running/Support Partner:
Once things began to settle down and my children and I got accustomed to our new routine, I forced myself to start running again with a friend of mine, who also happened to be divorced. When my children went to their dad’s, I would run. Our weekly runs were therapeutic; she and I ran a slow enough pace where we could talk about anything, from our children to fears of dating again and everything in between. It was nice having someone to talk to who could relate to the struggles and pain caused by a divorce.
Our runs also allowed me to meet new people who share the same passion for running and the outdoors. More people gradually joined our weekly runs, and I also discovered there was another running group in the area who trained for long distance races! This encouraged me to run my very first 10k. Although I had never run that distance, I felt that with the obstacles I had already gone through I was certainly capable of completing 6.2 miles.
Running Leads To Conquering Long-Distance Goals:
I will not forget that day. It was a rainy November morning and slightly cool. As I ran, the rain dripped from my cap and my feet were soaked, but I kept pushing forward. I wanted to prove to myself that I could do this and that I was not a failure. After a couple of miles in, the rain ceased and the sun began to shine. The course was not easy; two miles consisted of a gradual incline up a mountain. I had already told myself walking was not an option, so I made my way uphill. Once I reached the top, I knew I had accomplished a challenging feat. It felt amazing on the way downhill, and my feet hit the pavement with a little more confidence.
The end was in sight, I was running out of steam, but I knew I had to keep pushing. “Almost there, come on, you can do it!” Crowds of people lined both sides of the street and cheered for everyone who ran past. The last 100 yards seemed ongoing but I finally made it. Crossing that finish line was exhilarating, and I felt like I could do anything. “I did it, my first 10k! Wow!” My confidence had resurfaced, and I began to finally feel like myself again. All the feelings of worthlessness and self-doubt were void; I knew things were going to be ok.
Exercise is so amazing for the mind and the body, especially if you are going through a challenging situation, such as a divorce. You don’t have to be in great shape to begin an exercise routine. I recommend that if you are just starting out, go for a walk or a swim, or join a gym with a friend. Any kind of physical activity is effective and I guarantee you will feel amazing after.
Stronger, Happier, Healthier:
I honestly believe that if I hadn’t started running again and gotten involved with a running group, my depression would have consumed me and I believe I would have ultimately given up. I am so thankful for my family and the new friends I have made who helped me get through my lowest point. I am much stronger, happier, and healthier.
I am now running my very first half marathon New Year’s Day, something I never thought I would strive to accomplish.
Here’s to a brand new start and new beginning for the new year! If I can do it, so can you!
