In collaboration with former National Champion Roland Sands, Motul creates an engine oil for V-Twins and Twins of all kinds
Cypress, California – Motul, the leader in synthetic oil technology, announced today the TWIN line – a 100 percent synthetic line of products designed to achieve a new level of performance and protection for V-Twins and twins of all kinds. Developed specifically for V-Twins, Café Racers and cruisers found on the canyon roads and highways of North America, the TWIN line will be made in the USA with USA-sourced raw materials.
“North America has the largest population of Twins in the world – nearly one out of every two bikes are powered by a twin engine,” said Guillaume Pailleret, President of Motul USA. “We considered the growing number of vintage and classic bikes that are being restored and modified, and decided it was time for us to develop a product to support these riders. The Motul TWIN line of products utilizes all of our expertise of ester-based synthetic oils and adapts it for use in modern and vintage twin-cylinder engines.”
Motul TWIN line products and features:
Motul TWIN 20w50 engine oil is designed for high-performance street motorcycles, using a motorcycle-specific additive system which is developed to withstand extreme pressure and high heat and results in exceptional wear and thermal protection – even under extreme conditions. It is also compatible with all catalytic converters and oxygen sensors.
Motul TWIN 75w90 Gear Oil is a super heat-stable GL-5 transmission oil perfect for 4-speed, 5-speed and 6-speed transmission and gearboxes. Designed to go the distance required by modern maintenance schedules, this gear oil delivers increased protection for gearbox components and exceptionally smooth shifting. Due to its fully synthetic base oils, it can handle much higher running temperatures when compared to other gear oils.
Motul TWIN Primary Chaincase Oiland Motul TWIN Gear & Chaincase oil for Sportsters is 100 percent synthetic with Ester and uses a Motul-developed motorcycle additive system which provides excellent protection for primary drive chains, sprockets, clutches and baskets against wear. These gear oils deliver exceptionally smooth shifting and wet clutch grip even under harsh conditions.
Roland Sands – former AMA road race champion and founder of Roland Sands Design – drew upon decades of experience racing and rebuilding motorcycle engines to assist in the development of the TWIN line.
“The TWIN line has been developed with the custom and high-performance Twin cylinder motorcycle in mind,” said Sands. “We build quite a few twins every year and race high-performance twins on the street and dirt. Putting these machines though high stress environments in varying weather conditions, and using the expertise of Motul, we’ve developed a great collection of lubricants to meet the needs of both the hard riding and hands-on bike owner.”
Motul is a world-class French company specialized in the formulation, production and distribution of high-tech engine lubricants (motorcycles, cars and other vehicles) as well as lubricants for industry via its Motultech division.
Motul is also recognized as the specialist in synthetic lubricants. As early as 1971, Motul was the first lubricant manufacturer to pioneer the formulation of a 100% synthetic lubricant for automotive engines, the 300V lubricant, making use of Esters technology and issued from the aeronautical industry.
Throughout the years, Motul has gained experience as an official supplier to many racing teams and manufacturers and collaborates with them to advance motorsports technology.
Motul supports teams in these competitions: the 24 Hours of Le Mans, FIA World Endurance Championship, AMA Flat Track Pro, MotoAmerica, Super GT, Drift, Pikes Peak, Japanese championship Super Formula, Blancpain Endurance Series, Dakar, Tour Auto, Le Mans Classic, MotoGP, World Superbike, World MX, FIM Endurance World Championship, IOM TT, MOTUL FIM Ice Speedway Gladiators World Championship, Roof of Africa and a score of others.

6:43 p.m. EDT: No-hitter! Davis swings and misses at a slider off the plate to end it.
6:41 p.m. EDT: McDonald hits a soft grounder to second for the second out. Verlander dove for it, lucky not to deflect it to the side and turn it into a hit. Rajai Davis up.
6:39 p.m. EDT: Cooper pops up the first pitch he sees, a 97-mph fastball. One out.
6:38 p.m. EDT: The Tigers scored twice in the top of the ninth, giving Verlander plenty of time to think about things. He’s back on the mound now. Cooper up.
6:30 p.m. EDT: If he gets through the ninth, Verlander would join Mark Buehrle as the only active pitchers with multiple no-hitters. One could add Roy Halladay to the list, but his second no-hitter came in the postseason. Verlander’s previous no-hitter came June 12, 2007 against the Brewers.
6:20 p.m. EDT: Encarnacion grounds into a double play to end the eighth. Verlander will take a no-hitter into the ninth against David Cooper, John McDonald and Rajai Davis. Their batting averages: .150, .205 and .177.
6:18 p.m. EDT: A terrific at-bat from Arencibia, who works the walk on the 12th pitch from Verlander. He had just missed a double down the left-field line earlier in the at-bat. Perfect game gone, no-hitter intact.
6:07 p.m. EDT: Gallardo lost his bid in the eighth, as Daniel Descalso singled up the middle to begin the inning.
And Verlander’s is a perfect game, as he’s gone 21 up, 21 down against the Blue Jays.
Gallardo is at 104 pitches through seven, having walked four and struck out five Cardinals. He’s working with just a one-run lead, as Kyle Lohse has been strong as well.

The San Francisco Giants are reportedly in high spirits when it comes to their latest pitch to Aaron Judge. The Los Angeles Dodgers, although unsuccessful with their first rumored offer, are staying in hot pursuit of the New York Yankees star.
While both marquee franchises are certainly drawing consideration from Aaron Judge, according to MLB insider Jon Heyman there are still a few factors working against them in their chase for the reigning American League MVP.
One is the value of his California connection. While he did grow up rooting for the Giants, his hometown of Linden, California, it’s not exactly a stone’s throw away from either team’s facility with the distance being at least two hours away from San Francisco. He also now resides in Tampa, which is much more accessible when you’re playing their team from the same division as the Yankees.
Another is the value of the ballpark. While Aaron Judge doesn’t usually need a tape measure to check if his home runs cleared the fences, it doesn’t hurt to be playing in Yankee Stadium to give his offensive numbers a boost.
Both the Dodgers and Giants offer much less hitter-friendly fields. Considering Judge’s recent pursuit of history, there’s a good chance he’s weighing that aspect as well.
These roadblocks don’t necessarily close the door on an Aaron Judge move to California, but there are certainly going to be some more compelling arguments needed to sway him from ultimately running it back with the New York Yankees.

At noon we had arrived at our next stop on the Amazon, Alter do Chao. The captain had again warned people that this tender pier was even worse than the one at Macapa. He had just received a picture that morning and it wasn’t looking good, as he put it. We were soon to learn why. It seems the river had risen so much (which it does this time of year) that the usual pier was not available and the second choice was in a spot that was too shallow for the tenders. By one o’clock all those who had been circling the tender boarding area of the ship were disappointed to learn that we would not beable to put into shore there.
The excursion team needed to make some quick changes and confer with the local tour company and of course the captain needed to confirm a space in Santarem at the pier there where we had planned to be that evening. All things in place, we were told that we would head for Santarem which was two hours by ship (30 minutes by road it turns out) and the tours could be taken from there. Many took advantage of the option to cancel since it would make it quite late for the return to the ship.
Bob and I were dressed and ready to travel by the time we reached the pier at Santarem. The stores would be open as it was Saturday but not guaranteed to be open Sunday. I still needed some hair color and was beginning to really look my age. We grabbed one of the first shuttle buses into the city. It wasn’t air conditioned but it was still a pleasant five minute ride to town and beat walking in the sun.
The shuttle bus deposited us at a little park. As we looked around to get our bearings, we saw across the road a nice boardwalk area where some locals were fishing in the river. It turned out this was not the Amazon actually but the Tapajos River. Santarem is at the junction of the two and you can see the delineation between the two quite well. The Amazon is muddy and turbulent so it remains a brown color while the Tapajos is calmer and a bluer color. As the two blend, there are often spots of muddy brown water trapped by the bluer water making it look like sand bars.
As we crossed the park and headed to the street where the shops were, we noticed lots of people taking pictures near a huge sculptured parrot. When we rounded the parrot we discovered it was a phone booth! Wonder what was the more unusual attraction, the parrot or the fact that it was a phone booth?
Not far down the street we found a pharmacy. We’ve learned that it’s usually the place in foreign countries where you find everything but pharmaceuticals. You usually have to find a chemist for that. We entered and were greeted by a lovely young lady who asked us something in Portuguese—probably “Can I help you.”
I tugged at my hair and said, “Color?”
She responded, “Shampoo?”
I shook my head and said, “Black, brown, blonde,” thinking maybe one of those words would hit home. No such luck. She made a motion as though spraying her hair. I shook my head again and tried, “L’oreal? Clairol?”
Her face was a blank but I heard Bob call my name and point to a whole section full of all sorts of hair coloring including some brands I recognized. But they were all labeled in Portuguese! About that time another clerk joined us who knew some English and helped me make the purchase at the cash register. Meanwhile Bob was giving the other clerk some English lessons and she in turn was giving him lessons in Portuguese. I got him out of there before either one of them taught the other something they shouldn’t say.
We walked on down to a pedestrian area and marveled at the number and size of stores for the town that as only about 300,000. Apparently they must do a lot of business with people who travel to them from outlying areas. Santarem is the biggest city on the Amazon once past Macapa. There were lots of fabric shops that would put ours back home to shame with the number of fabric bolts they had.
The street went on further than we cared to walk. We were getting very warm and it was very humid even though we were walking in the shade as much as possible. A very nice souvenir shop was located across from the park and was recommended by someone who had been there before so we stopped in there and Bob bought himself a stuffed piranha just in case he didn’t catch any on our planned fishing trip.
There was still some time left before we really needed to return and we stopped at the corner bar and restaurant for a couple of cool beverages and a chance to use free internet to Facetime back home.
When we returned to the ship, we noticed two large hoses running across the pier and into the ship. Our water supply was being replenished. A shower was sounding really good!

If you have stubborn acne issues that do not seem to want to say goodbye, seeking help from a skin clinic might be the best choice. Here are a few treatments that might work for you:
- Medications applied to the skin (Example- topical acne creams)
- Medications are taken orally (pills that might help to reduce acne)
- Other treatments (For example various treatments including facials, blackhead extraction, whitehead extraction, etc)
If you’ve been suffering with acne, healed up but you still have scars, such as lumps or dimples, you’ll need to seek out different treatment options. Some of the most common acne treatments in Singapore are listed here.
A non-surgical technique in which your skin is on display to high-energy laser beams. This causes the skin to heat up, removing the damaged outer layers and stimulating regeneration.
Laser treatments target blood vessels can help reduce the appearance of pink colored or purple colored scars while also flattening raised scars. Carbon dioxide lasers are regularly used to treat acne scars.
Laser therapy is not just only for acne scars. Other types of scarring, such as those caused due to burns, skin cancer, and tattoo removal, are also treated using lasers.
This procedure is similar to laser treatment, however, instead of lasers, insulated tiny needles and radiofrequency are employed. These focus the energy on a smaller area, limiting the chance of harm.
Microneedling, It is known to be collagen induction therapy, involves creating minute holes in the top layer of the skin with a fine-needle roller or a pen instrument. The technique helps to enhance fine wrinkles and skin glow by stimulating collagen formation.
Following that, there is usually some redness that lasts a few days. For the best results, most individuals will require 4-6 microneedling treatments.
Depending on your needs, your expert may employ a combination of treatments. For example, they may use a laser to heal some scars and microneedling to treat others.
It sounds disgusting, but it’s merely an acidic liquid that’s when it comes to skin to remove the top layer. Remember how we claimed salicylic acid lotions can help exfoliate the skin? Consider chemical peels to be a more powerful form of that.
A chemical solution may be applied to the skin by your dermatologist. This causes it to blister and finally peel off, revealing fresh, smoother skin beneath.
For up to seven days after peeling, you may experience redness, edema, and cold sores. This treatment is also less expensive because only one treatment session is usually required.
This is a surgical technique for depressed scars and rough skin. A special needle is injected into the scar tissue to break it down and elevate it to skin level.
This one is a bit of a “cut and paste” technique. The scar is carved out using a little tool that looks like a cookie-cutter. The vacuum is then filled with a small plug of skin, commonly obtained from behind the ear. Sutures, sterile strips, or a specific surgical skin glue are used to keep the graft in place.
Although not particularly acne scar therapy, skin clinics frequently use it to plump up the skin and make it appear younger and smoother. A protein called hyaluronic gel is injected beneath the skin’s surface during the treatment.
To sum up, Subcision is a process that involves removing a scar that is attached to the deeper tissues so in order to that it may move liberally again, maybe effective before any of the lasers or peels. The pair of procedures are intended to bring deeper scars to the side to improve their reaction to laser, chemical peel, or micro-needling acne treatments in Singapore.

Noreen Mulholland will face four charges of harming to John Gethings, now deceased, and Seamus
Doherty, when she appears before Naas Circuit Criminal Court on November 16.
The date was set by Judge Murrough Connellan at the District Court yesterday where a Book of Evidence running to three volumes was served, indicating the prosecution’s readiness to proceed.
Judge Connellan granted an application on Ms Mulholland’s behalf to have her legal aid extended to cover the services of a senior counsel and junior counsel as well as a solicitor due to the volume and nature of evidence involved.
Ms Mulholland, who has been on bail since she was charged last May, attended yesterday’s hearing accompanied by two female companions.
The 33-year-old agency nurse, who has an address in Kildare town but is living in the North, is charged on four counts under the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act.
She is accused of assaulting Mr Gethings, causing him harm at Naas General Hospital on March 1, 2003, and with intentionally or recklessly administering to him a substance which she knew to be capable of interfering substantially with his bodily functions on the same date.
She is also charged with the same two offences against another patient, Seamus Doherty, at the same hospital between June 18 and June 19, 2003. She is denying the charges.
Inspector Pat Mangan told the court he had no difficulty with the defendant’s bail conditions remaining the same until her trial.
The court was told she had complied with an order to hand over her British and Irish passports to the inspector.
She had also been told to sign on at Portadown police station on Mondays and Fridays between 9am and 9pm and it was agreed that she would continue to do so.
Mr Gethings, who was 77 and from Baltinglass, Co Wicklow, died at Naas Hospital on March 1 last year and his remains were exhumed from Baltinglass Cemetery four months later as part of the garda investigation.
Ms Mulholland was suspended from duty around the same time and has not worked as a nurse since. The investigation was prompted by a complaint from the South Western Area Health Board, which runs the hospital.
The inquest into the death of Mr Gethings, which opened almost a year ago but has been repeatedly adjourned, is due before the Kildare county coroner’s court again next Monday.

As we all know, COVID-19 has caused a lot of chaos in the World. Here at Ghost City Tours, we've been impacted as much as you'd expect a Ghost Tour company to be impacted. However, we're back and in recovery mode!
We have restricted the size of our Haunted Pub Crawls so that we can comply with the Social Distancing Measures which are recommended. In addition, our Haunted Pub Crawls are longer in duration. The reality is that it takes longer to get our guests through uor haunted bars and pubs when the bar can only admit 10 people at a time.
If you're planning on joining Ghost City Tours for a Haunted Pub Crawl we ask that you anticipate small delays in the tour. It might not 'flow' the way it did prior to COVID-19.
At this time we are not requiring our Guests to wear facemasks in our cities. Our Tour Guides will sometimes wear a mask, but usually only in situations where Social Distancing cannot be maintained.
Yes! Being that we're an outdoors (primarily) activity, and we're strictly following Social Distancing and Sanitation measures, our Haunted Pub Crawls are very safe for our guests.
Well, we're going into Bars, Pubs, and Taverns - so all guests must be at least 21 years of age. We know some companies will allow people under 21 to join - but those tours suck (to be blunt). Who wants to leave their kid outside in a strane city while they go in and grab a beer?
We require you to bring your photo ID with you on the Pub Crawl. It is our only ghost tour which we require photo ID. The reason we require this is that many of the bars we go into will card you before you enter. If you do not have your ID it is very likely that you will not be permitted to join your tour group inside the bar.


|Mark Levinson No. 436 Monaural Power Amplifier|

When purchasing automobiles, you are presented with a selection that varies from simple low-cost transportation merely designed to supply the most basic features and a means from point A to point B, to vehicles that are the very essence of performance and artistic expression. When purchasing audio/video products, you have an equally enchanting array of choices, designed to fit every budget and performance desire. The Mark Levinson No436 is a product designed for the audio/video enthusiast who demands nothing short of the highest performance that money can buy.
Madrigal is no stranger to this level of performance with lines that include Revel and Proceed and are no stranger to me, as I own and use Revel Salon loudspeakers and the Mark Levinson No32 line-stage preamplifier in my reference system. The No436 is a rack-mountable 350-watt Class AB monaural power amplifier that measures 15.5 inches in width, 20.5 inches in depth and nearly a 4 RU high rack height of six-and-three-quarters inches. Each amplifier weighs 85 lbs. and has a retail price of $6,250.
The importance of the power amplifier is paramount in an A/V system as it is the last link in your electronics chain and the power plant needed to drive your favorite (and often demanding) loudspeakers. It is responsible for taking the low-level signal from either your line stage or A/V preamp, and making it powerful enough to drive your loudspeakers – not a trivial task. Monaural amplifiers can have many sonic benefits over a stereo amplifier. Firstly, a mono amplifier is designed to drive a single speaker. It doesn’t share power supplies and transformers, so they are capable of supplying more instantaneous current to your speakers. Mono amplifiers also eliminate any potential interaction between audio channels. In a multi-channel audio/video system, this becomes an enormous advantage, as you can connect an amplifier to each discrete audio channel.
When selecting a power amplifier, perhaps the most important consideration, other than cost, is the amount of power that your loudspeakers needs to perform at your desired volume. The lower the sensitivity of your loudspeakers are and the larger your room gets, the more power you will need. For instance, my Revel Salons are rated at 86dB SPL (sound pressure level) @ one watt. What this means is that your speakers will need one watt of power to produce 86 dB of sound at one meter. For instance, my Revel Salon’s are rated at 86dB SPL (Sound Pressure Level) @ 1 Watt. What this means is that your speakers will need one watt of power to produce 86 dB of sound at 1 meter. For each 3dB increase you will need double the power. In my case, this calculates to 256 watts of necessary power to rev my Revel Salons to 110dB of SPL, a volume that my system hears during nearly all of my energetic listening sessions. As an audio enthusiast rule, if you can afford the abundance of power, go for it. Power provides more than just volume – it provides sonic control and ease along with system protection. It is much harder to blow drivers with a system that is not distorting – even at high levels.
The Mark Levinson No436 is packaged in a newer, sleeker suit than earlier amps like the Mark Levinson No336 stereo amplifier. With the surge of multi-channel entertainment and the need for more than a single stereo amplifier, the No436 mono amplifier was produced with space savings in mind. Its minimalist package is sized to fit in a rack and take up as little rack space as possible. The front of the chassis has two aesthetically-pleasing silver aluminum wings that are connected to the main black-colored chassis via standoffs. Additionally, the Mark Levinson logo and the power and standby buttons finish off the front panel. At the rear of the amplifier are handles to assist you in moving the amplifier, inputs for both balanced and single ended cables, and a variety of communication connections. Gone are the oversized external heatsinks that once identified a Mark Levinson amplifier, replaced by a much more sophisticated heat exchange/thermal management system. A row of slots perpendicular to the face plate are visible only from the top of the chassis. At lower temperatures, these slots cool the amplifier with natural convection. As the temperature of the amplifier rises, fans draw air through the cross-cut heat sink, which forms an isolated tunnel, thereby preventing dust from being drawn into the amplifier which could ultimately compromise performance and reliability. These thermally controlled fans adjust their speeds based on necessary cooling requirements. Because the fans run at their highest speeds when you are driving the amplifiers the hardest, you are virtually assured that they will never be heard. I could never discern the sound of the fans in my system, whether the amplifiers were operating or idle.
The No436 employs Madrigal’s proprietary Adaptive Biasing Output Stage. This philosophy was originally introduced in the Mark Levinson No33 Reference Monaural Amplifier many years ago and has since found its way into the 300 and 400 series amplifiers. Although all Class AB amplifiers have a biasing stage, Madrigal’s has been designed to greatly extend the amount of available Class A amplification. With the No436, the devices are turned off gradually, eliminating the risk of reverse biasing and allowing for much reduced crossover distortion.
The No436 is a fully balanced design. It utilizes 16 output transistors to control the power flow to the loudspeakers. This provides eight matched sets per amplifier. Internally, the No436 uses pure oxygen-free copper buss bars for power distribution, to alleviate noise and power inconsistencies seen with typical wire harnesses.
For control and automation, the No436 provides a DC trigger input, allowing for external control of its power and standby modes. There are also DC trigger inputs, allowing you to control multiple amplifiers from a single control source. The No436 supplies link-ports for communication and automation between the No436 and other Mark Levinson components.
Additionally, the No436 provides PHAST and RS-232 communication ports for compatibility with other external control systems. The No436 provides several operating stages: Off, Sleep, Standby and On. These pre-listen stages provide a variety of readiness conditions, each with a different level of power consumption. In standby mode, your amplifiers will need minimal warm-up, although they will consume more power than that in the sleep and off modes.

Proangy is a biocomplex composed of plant substances with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties
EFFECTS: Proangy is a biocomplex composed of plant substances with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.The antibacterial action of Proangi is directed towards 74 strains of 19 different pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacterial species (20 strains of staphylococcus (including the strains resistant to methicillin, ampicillin, gentamicin, lincomycin, cloxacyclin), 10strains of Streptococcus, Enterococcus, Proteus and Myc. Tuberculosis, brucellosis.
Proangy is twice as efficient in infections caused by Gram positive bacteria. The anti-inflammatory effect of Proangi is carried by the essential oils of Red Sage and flavonoids which strengthen the capillary wall and increase the binding ability of serum proteins(especially gamma globulin) with histamine, which consequently eliminates its inflammatory properties.Theflavonoids also have antioxidant properties; they preserve Vitamin C by preventing the binding of its helix to metals and they preserve the intercellular substance.
Proangy neutralizes the viruses Herpes simplex and A2 influenza as well as all pathogenic strains of Candida.
Proangy takes an active part in the immune response of the organism; it activates the complement and increases the phagocytic activity of the serum. By increasing the value of properdin in the serum, it activates the alternate pathway of the complement and at the same time increases the agglutinin count in the blood.
The essential oils have antiseptic and antiinflammatory effects; they reduce the pain in swallowing and remove the unpleasant odour in the mouth.
PROBRONHI has a pleasant scent and taste, easily removes unpleasant odor from the mouth, does not disturb the natural flora and does not cause resistance in bacteria.
PROBRONHI decreases the toxicity of antibiotics, prevents the settlement of Candida albicans which requires their joint application under severe painful conditions .
Indications: acute and chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract, mouth ulcers , Herpes simplex infections, gripozni and convalescent conditions, inflammation of the gums , painful oral erosions and pain during teething .
Contraindications: Probronhi should not be used by persons hypersensitive to any ingredient . Hypersensitivity reaction is local and crosses with discontinuation of treatment .
DOSAGE AND USAGE: up to 30 drops, 34 times a day, 30 minutes before meal
NOTE: The product is a nutritional supplement. Not recommended for people sensitive to any of the ingredients.
Supplements are not used as a substitute for a varied diet. The fabric leaves traces that are difficult to remove. It contains no artificial colors or preservatives.
Warning: Proangy can stain cloth and leave marks which are difficult to remove

109057 Industrial Hemp Herbicide Tolerance Studies in Virginia.
Poster Number 410
Tuesday, October 24, 2017
Tampa Convention Center, East Exhibit Hall
Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is a multipurpose crop that is mainly cultivated for it's fiber and seed content. Hemp stalk can be used as a primary source in auto parts, textile items, industrial products, and building materials. Hemp seeds can be used as a source for human food, animal feed, and cosmetic products. Though, industrial hemp is not considered a commercial crop in Virginia, information is needed on the mode of action and phytotoxicity of herbicides for varying hemp production systems. In 2017, Virginia Tech conducted greenhouse studies to assess a variety of herbicides and their impact on hemp productivity. Several herbicides with different modes of action were tested for their phytotoxicity to hemp. Pre-emergent herbicides were applied at the time of planting and post-emergents were applied when plants reached 8 to 11 in. in height. Our results suggest that pendimethilin, chlorimuron, S-metolachor, linuron, sethoxydim, halosulfuron, and bromoxynil are candidate herbicides for weed control in an industrial hemp production system.

This Thursday’s installment of the free outdoor lunchtime entertainment series Broadway in Bryant Park featured a selection of numbers from the Disney hits The Lion King, Frozen, and Aladdin, hosted by 106.7 LITE FM radio’s Delilah with co-host L. Steven Taylor, who plays Mufasa in The Lion King at the Minskoff Theatre and has been with the production for nineteen years. It was a delight for all ages, and, as she shared with the audience, one of Delilah’s own favorite events of the year, having taken her children and grandchildren to all three of the shows multiple times and having become familiar with every song and move. Judging by the crowd’s reaction, she was not alone!
Among the eleven Disney numbers were three Oscar winners for Best Original Song from the movie versions of the stage adaptations – “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from The Lion King, “Let It Go” from Frozen, and “A Whole New World” from Aladdin – sung respectively by Pearl Khwezi and Brandon McCall, Charissa Hogeland, and Michael Maliakel and Mikayla Renfrow, all bringing their beautiful voices and emotional expressiveness to the enthusiastic audience at Bryant Park.
Opening the concert with a powerful rendition of “Circle of Life” from The Lion King – now the second longest running show on Broadway, with more than 9,000 performances since 1997 – was Tshidi Manye, who has been with the production even longer than Taylor, for 23 years. Two more of its numbers, “They Live in You” and “Shadowland,” were also interspersed in the set list, as was a reprise of “Circle of Life,” which served as the grand finale and brought together the afternoon’s entire Disney cast.
Along with Hogeland from Frozen was Chad Burris, as the Snowman, bringing the laughs with “In Summer,” and in addition to Maliakel, who also performed “Proud of Your Boy,” and Renfrow, soloing on “These Palace Walls,” was the terrific Caleb Barnett singing and dancing to the exuberant “Friend Like Me” from Aladdin and, together with Maliakel, leading Zach Bencal, Brad Weinstock, and Max Ehrlich in the high-spirited “Somebody’s Got Your Back.”
The concert also included a pre-show sneak peek at the upcoming musical How to Dance in Ohio – inspired by Alexandra Shiva’s Peabody Award-winning documentary of the same name, and originally developed with the legendary Broadway director Harold Prince – which will begin previews at the Belasco Theatre on November 15, and open on December 10.
With book and lyrics by Rebekah Greer Melocik, music by Jacob Yandura, choreography by Mayte Natalio, and direction by Sammi Cannold, the cast features seven autistic actors (Desmond Edwards, Amelia Fei, Madison Kopec, Liam Pearce, Imani Russell, Conor Tague, and Ashley Wool), all making their Broadway debuts and reprising their roles from the world-premiere engagement at Syracuse Stage, of seven real-life autistic young adults preparing for a spring formal dance at a group counseling center in Columbus. Joining them in the cast are Broadway veterans Haven Burton, Darlesia Cearcy, Carlos L Encinias, Nick Gaswirth, Melina Kalomas, and Martín Solá.
Representing them on stage at Bryant Park – though many members of the cast and team were there behind the scenes, handing out souvenir fans on the warm summer day, talking to the crowd and press, and supporting their castmates – were Cearsy and Burton with their blockbuster duet on “Getting Ready for the Dance” and Pearce with a stellar performance of “Building Momentum,” which had everyone cheering and looking forward to the Broadway debut of this talented young artist and this significant new musical in the fall.
The exciting 2023 season of Broadway in Bryant Park wraps up next Thursday (July 27), with 106.7 LITE FM hosts Cubby & Christine introducing a pre-show performance by the cast of Off-Broadway’s Little Shop of Horrors, followed by selections from & Juliet, Back To The Future, New York, New York, and Shucked performed by members of their Broadway casts.
Broadway in Bryant Park plays on Thursday, July 27, 2023, 12:30-1:30 pm (with the lawn opening and rehearsals beginning at 11 am), in Bryant Park, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, 40th-42nd Street, NYC. All performances are free and open to the public; tickets are not needed and masks are not required.

The devastated parents of a Dungiven man murdered 12 years ago say they need justice for their son, who they believe is a forgotten victim of ‘The Troubles’.
Marie and Nevin Moore’s eldest son, 30-year-old Gary was shot dead on December 6, 2000, as he worked on a house in the Monkstown estate in Newtownabbey. It was believed the UDA killed him.
Earlier this week, police revealed they had arrested a 32-year-old man in the West Midlands for questioning about two separate murders – that of Mr. Moore and of Gavin Brett, 18, shot dead in north Belfast in July 2001. Police later said the man was released unconditionally.
“Gary was a good son. We were close. He would have done anything for anyone. He was very kind,” Nevin told the ‘Journal’. “We’ll never get over what happened.”
Marie says after Gary was killed “everything changed”, and the family’s pain is as raw today as it was 12 years ago.
“We didn’t bring life into this world to be murdered,” said Marie. “We brought life into this world to be cherished and loved. Gary wasn’t involved in anything and it was a tit-for-tat murder. Gary was innocent and we want to know who killed him.”
Marie and Nevin feel as if Gary has been a forgotten victim of ‘The Troubles’.
“Whoever did it is out there living their life, going on as normal, but we’re the ones living the life sentence. It’s torture, because Gary – he’d be 43 this October – should be here,” said Marie.
The couple are convinced that someone knows who shot their son, and hope their appeal will encourage someone who has information to “do the right thing”.
“We just hope and pray they’ll do the right thing,” said Nevin.

“I’ve been kissed by a…” Wait, not that Seal. An actual seal rescued a dog that was being swept away from shore by swift currents. While this story is nearly 10 years old, it still manages to delight and inspire today.
From The Daily Telegraph:
“A seal was seen coming to the aid of a drowning dog and pushing it to the safety of a river bank.
Chris Hinds, a court warrants officer, was out walking his own dogs when he saw the alsatian-cross injured and whimpering at the water’s edge. As he approached, it panicked and plunged into the River Tees only to be swept away by the fast-flowing tide on Tuesday evening. Mr Hinds, 43, sent his son Raymond, 18, to call the fire brigade and RSPCA from his mobile phone in his car parked nearby.
He stayed on the bank beneath Newport Bridge, Middlesbrough, to follow the path of the dog. As the dog yelped 30ft out and he shouted, a seal popped up and began to circle the stricken animal. Then to Mr Hind’s amazement it swam up behind the dog and used its nose to push it by the backside on to mudflats.
“I just couldn’t believe what was happening in front of my eyes, it was a truly amazing experience I will never forget,” said Mr Hinds, of Middlesbrough, who had been out walking his own two dogs. I thought the dog would die because there was nothing I could do to get to it. When the seal suddenly appeared from nowhere I wondered what it would do. It took a matter of seconds to save the dog. I don’t know why the seal did what it did. I can’t explain it.”‘
