Years after she first saw "The Passion of the Christ," Lori Pearson still feels queasy when she recalls the brutally graphic movie about the final hours of Jesus' life.
Years after she first saw The Passion of the Christ, Lori Pearson still feels queasy when she recalls the brutally graphic movie about the final hours of Jesus’ life.
“After I left the theater I remember feeling physically uncomfortable,” said Pearson, a Dublin, Ohio, mother of two teenagers who writes movie reviews for the website Kids in Mind. “It was gruesome torture sequence after gruesome torture sequence. That kind of thing has a tendency to stay with me.”
Pearson and her husband, Aris Christofides, started writing highly descriptive online reviews in 1992 to help parents navigate the sometimes confusing nature of movie ratings, but over the years their audience has evolved to include an unexpected group: adults looking to avoid certain types of screen violence themselves.
“We get a lot of email from women who’ve been victims of sexual violence and don’t want to see those kinds of scenes,” Pearson said. “We get email from people who’ve been in a car accident and don’t want to see a movie with a car accident. And a lot of people just can’t tolerate torture — including me.”
Amid the heated public debate over whether violent entertainment causes or encourages aggressive behavior, it’s easy to overlook members of the audience who are quietly but profoundly affected by scenes of murder and mutilation in movies and television — the ones who go home and pull their covers over their heads or avoid such fare entirely.
Although it’s not often discussed, some people are more sensitive to screen violence than others, both for reasons of physiology and life experience.
In a world where increasingly grisly entertainment is delivered on bigger screens, with more realistic visual effects and in the sometimes assaulting detail of high definition and 3-D, those with more delicate sensibilities may feel under siege. And with violent movies such as The Dark Knight Rises and The Hunger Games among last year’s highest grossers and programs such as Criminal Minds and The Walking Dead scoring some of TV’s highest ratings, Hollywood has little incentive to cater to them.
San Francisco psychologist Elaine Aron estimates that 15 to 20 percent of people are “highly sensitive,” a group she identified in the 1990s and published research on in medical journals such as Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience and the Journal of Analytical Psychology. Along with being more affected by noises and smells, these same people tend to react more strongly to violent imagery.
“Sensitive people have more active mirror neurons,” Aron said, describing a type of nerve cell that neuroscientists have only recently begun to research. “These are the parts of the brain where if you see somebody kick a ball, you feel as though you’re kicking the ball yourself. Then there are other parts of the brain that tell you, ‘No, it’s not you.’ But the experience of empathy still happens, and for some people, it’s very intense.”
Sensitive viewers don’t just react while sitting in a movie theater — with a quickening of the pulse and a surge of stress hormones — but long after, often experiencing nightmares or feeling uncomfortable in situations that remind them of the scene.
Anyone who has ever thought of Jaws while wading in the ocean or Psycho while taking a shower can relate to the indelibility of certain filmed images.
After seeing the 1967 Audrey Hepburn thriller Wait Until Dark, Joanne Cantor couldn’t sleep for days. Cantor, an expert on the psychological effects of media and a professor emeritus at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, was in her 20s and had just moved to Paris. Like Hepburn’s character, who is blind and being pursued by criminals, she was a vulnerable young woman in an unfamiliar setting.
“Our brains are made to respond negatively to depictions of violence,” said Cantor, who also wrote the book Mommy, I’m Scared.
“The fear response is designed to keep us alive. Some people say, ‘Why am I such a baby? What’s wrong with me? This gives me nightmares, but this is what my boyfriend wants me to watch.’
“I tell them, ‘You’re human, there’s nothing wrong with you.’ Our brains evolved to respond this way before there were movies.”

Nestle Position statement
Herta attaches the utmost importance to the trust that our consumers have in our halal products and strictly respects rules governing these products.
When we became aware that Eurofins allegedly found traces of pork in Knacki Poultry Herta certified halal in France, we immediately asked an independent laboratory in Germany to carry out an in-depth investigation at our local factory, based on the latest analytical methods which can detect the presence of pork DNA. The results showed the total absence of pork DNA traces in the products concerned. As an additional measure to reassure our consumers, we also decided to test every single product batch for pork DNA traces prior to release from the factory.
We have since found that this very thorough testing procedure prevents us from providing products with the desirable level of freshness. Consequently, we have decided to temporarily suspend supply of Herta halal products until full assessment of the necessary supply chain needs.

Although I have made the journey south of the border many times, I was first introduced to this treat inSan Diego. There is a little Mexican Taqueria in Old Town where they still make their tortillas on site, and the charming proprietors treat me like family. One day, after a delicious lunch on a particularly hot afternoon, the owner brought me an avocado paleta that was unlike anything I had ever put in my mouth. From that moment forward I became fascinated with this culinary delight. After this, I began to seek out Paletas, but never encountered them outside the West Coast. An East-Coaster, I would have to bide my time to satisfy the craving until something or someone placed me there geographically. I moved toNashville in 1994 and joined the ranks of the underemployed musicians who also do something else to supplement their income. My supplement was General Contracting. As the economy started to slow and the construction business came to a grinding halt I decided to follow my passion for food. An appreciation for the culinary arts has been with me for many years. Nothing makes me happier than cooking and feeding people! So it was only natural that in Nashville, I was reintroduced to the paleta by two lovely sisters fromGuadalajara, Irma and Norma Paz, who started a popular local spot called – no surprise –“Las Paletas.” Little did I know that would inspire the next chapter of my life.
After recently relocating back to my hometown of Miami, I decided that this would be a great place to follow another dream. That dream is PopNature, and it is the jumping-off point for what I hope will be many more wonderful things to come.

In Thursday night’s 4-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox, Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda gave up only one run and four hits in six innings of work. The question everyone’s asking is: did Pineda have something illegal on his hand?
When Daniel Nava came up to bat in the top of the fourth inning in a scoreless game, NESN broadcasters Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy started to focus on the brown substance on Pineda’s pitching hand.
“There’s that substance; that absolutely looks like pine tar,” Orsillo said.
Remy replied, “Yeah, that’s not legal.”
Whatever the substance was on Pineda’s hand, it helped him hold the Red Sox without a hit for five innings. Pineda also struck out seven batters in his six innings of work.
According to MLB rule 8.02, it states that a pitcher may not, “apply a foreign substance of any kind to the ball.” Rule 8.02 (b) says a pitcher may not, “have on his person, or in his possession, any foreign substance. For such infraction of this section (b) the penalty shall be immediate ejection from the game. In addition, the pitcher shall be suspended automatically.”
After the game, Pineda denied having any pine tar or any substance on his hand.
“I don’t use pine tar,” Pineda said. “It’s dirt. I’m sweating on my hand too much in between innings.”
After the game umpire crew chief Brian O’Nora said, “The Red Sox didn’t bring it to our attention, so there’s nothing we can do about it. If they bring it to our attention, then you’ve got to do something.”
This isn’t the first time a pitcher has been under fire for having a substance on their throwing hand. In June 2012, Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Joel Peralta was ejected for having pine tar on his glove while playing the Washington Nationals. During the 2006 World Series, Detroit Tigers pitcher Kenny Rogers was accused of having pine tar on his throwing hand in a 3-1 game two victory over the St. Louis Cardinals.
On Friday, Major League Baseball executive Vice President Joe Torre said there were no plans to suspend Pineda.
“The umpires did not observe an application of a foreign substance during the game and the issue was not raised by the Red Sox. Given those circumstances, there are no plans to issue a suspension, but we intend to talk to the Yankees regarding what occurred.”
It is clearly a substance of some kind was on Pineda’s hands. Pitchers in the past have used substances such as pine tar to help them grip the ball better on off-speed pitches. Pineda could have also been using the pine tar on his hand because it was a chilly night in the Bronx. The Red Sox didn’t alert the umpires about the substance, but you can be sure players, managers and announcers will be keeping a close eye on Pineda all season long.

Despite slow start 3G subscriber base in India to reach 371 million by 2017, according to Cellular Market Analysis and Forecasts, 2012-2017” from Maravedis-Rethink.
“ We expect the active 3G subscriber base in India to reach 74 million by the end of 2013 and 371 million by the end of 2017. The market share growth will depend on how fast operators can deploy 3G networks in their respective licensed circles, and how rapidly they can address the demand in rural areas”, the study said.
With overall stagnant 2011 broadband penetration at 13.35 million primarily DSL subscribers, the Indian market represents a significant growth opportunity for the broadband wireless sector.
3G is starting to make inroads in India and the active 3G subscriber base will reach 41 million by the end of 2012, “In India, the growth of 3G has been slower than many expected, mainly because of the high price of services,” said Basharat Ashai, author of the report. “However, we believe that the availability of lower cost smartphones in the US$50 range will drive 3G growth in India in the coming years.”
“As long as TD-LTE is the de facto technology for mobile broadband in India, the challenge operators face lie in bringing an inexpensive multimode (2G/3G/TD-LTE) device to consumers. Multimode devices give operators an opportunity to expand 4G with the option of fallback to 3G networks in rural and suburban areas. Operators are pressuring chipset/device manufacturers to accelerate their efforts to get the cost of multimode devices down substantially,” added Caroline Gabriel, research director for Maravedis-Rethink.

Geography of Israel: The Sea of Galilee
The Sea of Galilee, known to Israelis as Lake Kinneret, is only 13 miles by 7 miles, but is one of the most well-known bodies of water in the world. It was on these beautiful shores that Jesus delivered sermons and performed miracles. Many famous sites are located around the lake, including Capernaum, home to at least five of the twelve disciples. The Church of the Beatitudes is said to be where the Sermon of the Mount was preached and Tabgha, believed to be the site where Jesus fed 5,000 followers from five loaves of bread and two fish, is marked by The Church of Multiplication. The nearby lakeside town of Migdal is the hometown of Mary Magdalene.
The Israeli Water Authority announced plans to replenish the Sea of Galilee with desalinated water in December 2017. The Sea of Galilee provides approximately 1/4 of Israel's drinking water, and due to years of below average rainfall the sea had dropped to dangerously low levels. The low water level has increased the salinity of the reservoir, harming the water quality. The Israeli Water Authority extracts about 17,000 tons of salt from the Sea of Galilee each year to ensure it's potability. The plan to pump in desalinated water and replenish the sea is estimated to take two years and cost $290 million.

Malcom was on the scoresheet for the third time in four matches on Friday evening as Bordeaux continued their rise up the table with a 1-0 win at Toulouse. The 20-year-old winger has been a revelation this season. Bordeaux endured a frustrating start to the campaign – they were knocked out of the Europa League by Hungarian side Videoton before they had kicked a ball in Ligue 1 – but Jocelyn Gourvennec’s side have played some inspired football in recent months and remain one of just two unbeaten sides remaining in the league (along with Paris Saint-Germain, who have won all six of their matches so far). Bordeaux now sit in fourth, just one point below third-placed Saint-Étienne.
They owe a lot to Malcom, whose driven goal on Friday broke open a match that looked as if it would finish goalless. Impressive though it was, his winner against Toulouse hardly ranks among the best of Malcom’s career. It wasn’t even his best this season – see his jaw-dropping equaliser against Lyon – but it showed all of the abilities that have made him a bona fide matchwinner: pace, vision, intelligence of movement and finishing.
He exhibited these talents at Corinthians but was never a prolific goalscorer in a side that also contained Jadson and Vágner Love. When he moved to France from São Paulo (now seeming a snip at a rumoured €5m) 18 months ago, he was billed as a player given to moments of brilliance, but not necessarily one who would take charge of matches consistently. Of course, part of that was down to his age – he was just 18 – but few expected much of the young winger besides the odd brilliant goal. This season, though, he seems to be happy, driven and benefitting from a somewhat surprising decision by his manager.
A slight tactical tweak from Gourvennec has given Malcom more goalscoring chances and an opportunity to be the team’s creative fulcrum. Bordeaux still use the 4-3-3 formation that helped them rise up the table in the second half of last season, but Gourvennec’s integration of new players has helped Malcom become more effective as an inverted winger. Last year, in that same 4-3-3, much of the creative duties currently given to Malcom were the province of the young Argentinian midfielder Valentín Vada, who was nominally a box-to-box midfielder but generally played in the areas you would associate with a more orthodox No10.
Despite a decent campaign last year, Vada has been benched this season, often for Lukas Lerager. The Dane is undoubtedly a more prosaic presence but his inclusion gives Malcom a freer role in attack and more space. He has already responded with three assists (he recorded just four last season), showing that he is ready to be the team’s focal point in attack both as a creative presence and a goalscorer.
In addition to his electric presence on the pitch, Malcom has also been a boon to his team off it as well. Bordeaux’s record with Brazilian players in the recent past has been mixed, but the club nevertheless added both Jonathan Cafu, from Ludogorets, and Otávio, from Atlético Paranaense, this summer. Neither player is lacking in experience – with Cafu having delivered a strong performance in last year’s Champions League – but Malcom has helped them.
“You just need to see him every day,” says Gourvennec. “He is still just as joyous and galvanising for the squad as ever. He has even been acting as a translator for his new Brazilian team-mates. He is not at all affected by everything that is being said. Even if he is still young, he is also very mature.” That maturity, combined with his talent and a system tailored to his playing style, have made him one of the league’s most impressive prospects. He was linked with Manchester United and Liverpool in January but more concrete interest arose this summer from Germany. Both Borussia Dortmund and Wolfsburg were in hot pursuit of the player’s signature, but Bordeaux rebuffed all suitors.
Bordeaux’s poor start to the season may yet have a huge silver lining. Without extra European matches, the team will be able to focus on the league and could become this year’s Nice as a surprise package. A massive match against Paris Saint-Germain later this month will show us how good this team really is. If the season’s opening stages are anything to go by, Bordeaux, with Malcom at the fore, will be well worth watching.
Ligue 1 talking points
• Metz should have been relegated last season. They finished the campaign with the most goals conceded (72) and the worst goal difference (-33) but a breakout campaign from Ismaila Sarr and the goals of winter signing Cheick Diabaté kept them up. Having lost both players over the summer, the club started the season with five straight defeats. However, a surprise 1-0 win at previously undefeated Angers on Sunday afternoon deservedly gave them their first points of the campaign. Togolese winger Mathieu Dossevi, who was brought in from Standard Liège, towards the end of the summer transfer window, made the difference. He was a nuisance all game and his cross set up Nolan Roux’s winning header. Whether Philippe Hinschberger’s men will have enough to survive the season is still very much uncertain but Dossevi is giving them cause for optimism.
• When Marcelo Bielsa arrived in Lille this summer, the feeling was his tenure would be either glorious or disastrous. Their 1-0 loss to Guingamp was their third defeat in five matches and they have scored just once in that time, so they are currently veering closer to disaster than glory. Unsurprisingly, Bielsa’s reign has already been littered with the bizarre. His ruthlessness has left one of Ligue 1’s best goalkeepers, Vincent Enyeama, exiled; he has sanctioned the sale of forward Nicolas de Préville to a direct top-six rival in Bordeaux; and battling midfielder Xeka has been shipped off to Dijon despite giving some influential displays after signing from Braga at Christmas. The most confusing aspect of Bielsa’s short spell so far is that Lille have been infuriatingly dull. The high-octane, gung-ho football of his season at Marseille has been replaced by a blunt, disjointed outfit lacking in flare. Lille are just six games into what the club hope will be a long-term appointment and a disparate group of players need time to coalesce but, given his track record, it may not take much more for the eccentric Bielsa to have other ideas.
• Until last week’s defeats at Nice, it seemed as if Monaco – although weakened by the departures of Kylian Mbappé, Bernardo Silva and Tiemoué Bakayoko – were coping just fine. However, the 4-0 mauling at the Allianz Riviera showed that they won’t be able to counterpunch as powerfully or as often in their current guise, which has encouraged Leonardo Jardim to adjust Monaco’s style this week. The creditable 1-1 draw at RB Leipzig this week saw marauding yet flaky full-back Djibril Sidibé move forward into a five-man midfield, joined by Youri Tielemans, leaving Radamel Falcao on his own in attack. This is a setup Monaco will look to employ this year for sterner tests against better sides and, although it is a little disappointing to see them reining things in, this is a prudent switch that suits their squad. Tielemans and Moutinho suit a three-man central midfield; Falcao remains adept at leading the line on his own; and moving Sidibé forward plays to his strengths and affords Jardim a little more solidarity on the flanks. They may not overwhelm Champions League teams this season, but Jardim and Monaco remain a threat.

Perhaps we should have noted a disclaimer for our short series prediction: It wasn’t made with the thought of Antti Niemi of completing wetting himself.
You could toss out any immeasurable intangible that gets thrown around after a playoff loss: intensity, urgency, desire, whatever. The bottom line is whatever buzz the Hawks created with their decent first period went right down the toilet when Niemi kicked a juicy rebound on a lazy flip shot from the corner with less than 15 seconds in the opening frame.
If people want to start throwing rose petals at the feet of Michael Grabner and Rick Rypien while proclaiming the Canucks four lines deep, then I would recommend you not operate any heavy machinery.
The reasons for why the Hawks looked so bad on Saturday are endless but the simplest (and probably most correct) reason was they were let down in net; the Canucks were not. End of story.
Dress Adam Burish. Stop changing lines. Brent Sopel sucks again. No intensity. No FIRE! No PASSION!
None of those factors matter if Niemi doesn’t crap the bed. It’s not like the Hawks are asking him to channel his inner Jaroslav Halak. Just make the saves that need to be made.
With that all being said, Game 2 should be much different assuming the Hawks receive semi-competent goaltending. In the first and third periods in Game 1, the Canucks defense was having all sorts of problems with the quicker Hawk forwards. That trend will continue however long the series lasts.
Hopefully, Luongo’s stellar play doesn’t.
A couple things to watch for the rest of this series: Apparently, Marian Hossa didn’t skate in warm-ups before Game 1. Judging by how ineffective he was, that might not be the best idea for the rest of the series.
The most important thing, for me, to see tomorrow is to make sure Patrick Sharp stays at center. It will be very tempting for Joel Quenneville to move Sharp up with Kane and Toews but there simply isn’t enough depth at center to be yanking your 2nd best center all over the place.

Sustainability and IT go hand in hand. Discover three concrete measures to make your IT activities more sustainable. Learn how Carbon Aware Computing is becoming the new standard in the IT world. From location shifting to time shifting and demand management, these strategies help you make more sustainable choices. Make the switch and contribute to more sustainable business operations.
IT professionals must also take their responsibility on the road to a sustainable society. After all, part of the CO2 emissions is due to the use of technology. Where computing power and storage are becoming increasingly accessible and cheaper, unlimited and arbitrary recourse to IT capacity now seems like a piece of cake. That must and can be done differently. With the use of Carbon Aware Computing, the use of green energy becomes the new normal.
The awareness that IT can also contribute to sustainable business operations is growing steadily. However, many organizations still struggle with the question of how. Especially where sustainability is mainly the responsibility of a separate department. Concrete actions are far removed from daily practice. This changes if energy consumption is a strategic point of attention throughout the entire life cycle of IT solutions; from the design, development, and construction of systems to their maintenance, management, and replacement. Thanks to the use of Carbon Aware Computing, the use of green energy is becoming commonplace during various phases. This is done based on location, time, and demand management:
Ensure that energy-intensive processes take place in places where the ratio of green energy to the energy grid is most favorable. Location shifting is relevant for regular continuous processes that take place at night, for example. Batch processes during the night are also extremely suitable for location shifting. Based on historical, current, and predictive information, it becomes clear what amount of green energy is available. When starting a process, energy scenarios can be requested from the cloud. Only then will the process start where the most green energy is available.
Provided you are flexible in the times at which IT processes can take place, time shifting is ideal for taking advantage of moments of abundance. Green energy that would otherwise be wasted because the combination of available wind, water, or solar energy exceeds demand is thus put to good use. Machine Learning processes are ideally suited for time shifting. Batching large amounts of data or transcoding videos into different formats is usually not tied to a specific time. Microsoft has been using this for Windows 11 since 2022. Updates are automatically downloaded and installed when the most available green energy is available.
Adjust the application to the amount of available green energy. That is demand shaping. This makes it possible to run software continuously. Continuous availability of energy is often a precondition. Controlling usage is then a good alternative to time shifting. For example, consider economical appliances with an eco mode setting, such as washing machines. At times of surplus, a quick washing program is chosen. When there is scarcity, the wash will take longer. Streaming services can also automatically reduce video quality in times of scarcity to save energy.
To take full advantage of Carbon Aware Computing, it is first important to map existing IT processes within the IT landscape. This gives you insight into which processes are eligible for location, time, and/or demand shifting. With the use of Open Source tooling from the Green Software Foundation, these three measures can be fully automated. Data sources such as WattTime and Electricity Maps help provide insights into available green energy.
The amount of available green energy is still limited. By making maximum use of places and moments of surplus, you will at least contribute to a sustainable business operation


text: Do you have questions about blue balls and how they come about? Below is detailed information on the facts about blue balls, including being harmless. Epididymal hypertension is the medical term for blue balls. There is, however, no evidence to prove that it is a real medical problem. According to Cooperman & Miller (2021), blue balls are caused by semen retention. This comes about when a man had sexual arousal but did not ejaculate. This makes them feel pain and discomfort in the testicles. Blue balls have been a controversial topic because some people do not believe it is true. Some people believe that it is psychological. It has been dismissed as an excuse by men to guilt women into having sex. Below are facts associated with the blue balls. Blue Balls are Harmless Blue balls have been described as an overheated thermometer. The fluids rush to the penis when there is stimulation, hoping for relief. When a man is aroused and has an erection, the blood vessels leading to the penis and testicles widen, as Levin (2015) explained. The blood makes the penis widen and get stiff. The result should be an ejaculation. If there is no ejaculation, blue balls will happen. On the other hand, if there is an ejaculation, blood will go back to normal, and there will be no pain. Blue balls are generally sexual frustration that sometimes manifests as an aching sensation in the testicles. If you are having sex and are interrupted, you will be uncomfortable, and the discomfort can lead to intense pain for some minutes. The blood pressure causes discomfort. which will disappear as soon as the erection ends. Blue balls may have various symptoms such as heaviness, aching, and mild pain in the testicles due to sexual arousal. The testicles are painful when touched, and the scrotum is slightly blueish. All the symptoms are temporary. You Do Not Need to See a Doctor for Treatment According to Poulain (2020), blue balls refer to the pain of the scrotum and testes. There is intense or mild pain in the scrotum. However, you can treat it at home. You do not need to see a doctor for treatment. You can exercise to move the excess blood from the penis to other body parts. You can also seek a distraction, for example, taking a shower, listening to music, or reading a book. You can get ice and place it on the penis to cool it. The coldness will reduce the swelling and the pressure. You can masturbate to at least get an ejaculation since the simple treatment for blue balls is to ejaculate. You can also have oral or penetrative sex. Moreover, you can use painkillers or have someone give you a massage for relaxation. Within a few minutes, the blue balls will have disappeared. A person Will Feel Pain Until He Has Sex This is why blue balls are dismissed as an experience that is not real. It is suspected that men use it as an excuse to win the woman’s sympathy so that she eventually accepts to have sex with him. Ladies should avoid this excuse and avoid the pressure of reluctantly hooking up with someone to relieve them of the blue balls. Men can naturally handle blue balls on their own. They can get a sexual outlet through masturbation or by finding something non-sexual for distraction, like going for a walk. Relaxing for some minutes will also relieve him. However, if the blue balls affect the man’s sex life, he should talk to a doctor about it because it may indicate a more serious problem. The Testicles Do Not Turn Blue The testicles do darken, but that is because of the increased volume of blood flow. If the balls turn blue, one should seek medical help because that will be a symptom of a disease known as testicular torsion. According to Ringdahl & Teague (2006), the testicles may seem bluish due to increased blood flow. Since the blood is momentarily trapped in the testicles, it seems blue. Not All Men Complaining of Blue Balls are Delusional The discomfort may be real. Sex is different for everyone and how one man feels isn’t always the same for the other. Some men have experienced blue balls once or twice, while some experience them regularly. To express discomfort, a man may be talking of blue balls as having a sexual dry spell or as a figure of speech. You should try to comfort the man and give him time to feel better. Conclusion Blue balls seem to happen to men that are not sexually experienced since they get easily aroused. It is, therefore, more common in teenagers than in older males. It may also be common among men who delay ejaculation during masturbation. Blue balls do not require medical help because it is temporary. The blood pressure in the testicles does not last for long. The solution to getting rid of blue balls is simple. The man should try to have an orgasm or find a distraction. The man does not have to see a doctor unless he has been experiencing strong pain in the testicles unrelated to sexual activity or if the orgasm lasts for too long.

Of course, the American MTLS-1G14 tank, with which a very limited number of people are familiar, can certainly be attributed to the little-known tanks of the Second World War. At the same time, this tank was built in a relatively large series of 125 combat vehicles, which is more than the number of many small-scale German tank destroyers or self-propelled guns during the war. This unusual American tank, which was armed with a twin 37-mm cannon, is interesting due to the fact that many experts recognize this combat vehicle as one of the most unsuccessful American tanks of the Second World War.
We can say that the history of the MTLS-1G14 tank begins in 1940, when the army of the Royal Dutch East Indies (KNIL: Koninklijk Nederlans Indisch Leger) embarked on a program of extensive modernization of its own army. KNIL belonged to the Dutch armed forces, which were called upon to protect the oil wealth of the Dutch East Indies (now part of Indonesia). At the same time, KNIL was separated from the rest of the Dutch army, most often it acquired various weapons for itself on its own. After the war in the Pacific became inevitable, the KNIL decided to carry out a major reorganization of the existing troops. It was supposed to reformat the 4 existing mechanized brigades, and later increase their number to 6. New combat units required a significant amount of equipment and weapons, a large number of vehicles, including tractors, trucks and, of course, tanks.
At the same time, Holland could never independently supply such a quantity of equipment, especially tanks. Moreover, the war that unfolded in Europe did not leave the possibility of delivering military equipment from the Old World. The only source of supplies remained the United States, however, US factories, especially tank plants, were busy fulfilling contracts for the supply of equipment to the American army, as well as the first agreements for the supply of weapons under Lend-Lease. Therefore, the army of the Royal Dutch East Indies was forced to turn to the services of those companies that were not bound by contractual obligations with the American army. For these purposes, Marmon-Herrington was ideally suited, which was ready to provide the production of the entire range of vehicles, as well as the equipment required by Dutch customers.
At the same time, the first tanks ordered from Marmon-Herrington never arrived in the East Indies before the start of the war with Japan. Already in January 1942, Japan began an invasion of the oil-rich areas of the Dutch East Indies, quickly crushing the allied forces in the region. Initially, the Dutch order provided for the delivery of 200 MTLS-1G14 medium tanks by the beginning of 1943, but in June 1942 it was reduced to 185 vehicles, and then to 125 tanks. At the expense of the reduced tanks, the Dutch military had to receive the necessary amount of spare parts, which they forgot about when signing the contract.
The last of the 125 tanks ordered by the Dutch was ready on March 4, 1942. But they did not have time to take part in hostilities on the territory of the Dutch East Indies. By that time, the only Dutch territories still unoccupied were the possessions located in South America. In May 1942, the formation of a mixed motorized brigade began in Dutch Guiana (today Suriname), for which the Marmon-Herrington company began shipping equipment manufactured by the Dutch order. True, by that time the Dutch needed only 20 MTLS-1G14 tanks, they simply refused the rest.
The MTLS-1G14 was a classic tank with armament as its main feature. The main armament of the tank is a twin installation of 37-mm automatic cannons with a barrel length of 44 caliber. Artillery armament was supplemented by a huge number of machine guns. The tank provided for the installation of 5-6 machine guns at once. Two 7.62 mm Colt-Browning M1919A4 machine guns were placed in the forehead of the hull, one was paired with 37 mm cannons, and another was located in the right cheekbone of the turret. One or two machine guns could be mounted on top of the turret, they could be used as anti-aircraft guns. A crew of 4 people was supposed to handle this weapon.
The hull and turret of the tank, which had a hexagonal shape, were riveted, which was difficult to attribute to advanced solutions. The thickness of the armor varied from 13 to 38 mm. 38-mm armor had a hull forehead, as well as a forehead, sides and rear of the turret. By 1943, such a reservation for a medium tank was already clearly insufficient. At the same time, the tanks were planned to be used in the Dutch East Indies, where their main opponents were to be Japanese tanks, which also at that time did not differ in their manufacturability and good combat characteristics. Against them, the MTLS-1G14 looked quite organic.
The undercarriage of the MTLS-1G14 medium tank was similar to the one that Marmon-Herrington engineers used on their CTMS-1 TBI light tank - on each side there are four rubberized road wheels, which were interconnected in pairs in two bogies; two support rollers; front drive wheel with removable toothed rims (pin engagement) and guide wheel. In this case, American engineers used a suspension on vertical buffer springs.
The power plant was a 6-cylinder air-cooled Hercules HXE carburetor engine. It developed a maximum power of 240 hp. at 2300 rpm. The engine power was enough to accelerate a tank with a combat weight of more than 16 tons to a speed of 42 km / h while driving on the highway.
After Holland refused to buy a part of the armored vehicles built for them. The US Armed Forces Supply Directorate sent one CTMS-1TBI light tank and two MTLS-1G14 medium tanks to the Aberdeen Proving Ground for comprehensive testing. Tests of combat vehicles took place here from February to May 1943. In the report preserved after these tests, these tanks were designated "completely unreliable with structural and mechanical defects, low-power and equipped with weak weapons." They were found unsuitable for service in the American army. In general, at that time, MTLS-1G14 could already be called obsolete. The archaic nature of the tank consisted not only in riveted armor and an outdated undercarriage with rollers interlocked in bogies, but also in the absence of a radio on board, the radio equipment of the tanks was not provided for by the contract.
It is worth noting that some of the Marmon-Herrington tanks were used in the American army. We are talking about light tanks CTLS-4TAY and CTLS-4TAC, which were recognized as fit for limited use and entered the American army under the designations T-14 and T-16, respectively. The Americans used these tanks mainly in Alaska. A November 1942 report from the US Army Supply Directorate contains information that each individual tank broke down during the first 100 hours of operation. At the same time, some of these accidents could be easily avoided using trained tankers, while these combat vehicles were operated by the "first available" personnel. This conclusion is confirmed by the fact that the Dutch and Australians, who also received these tanks, considered them satisfactory, and the Dutch operated them in the jungles of Suriname for almost three years.
Marmon-Herrington tanks: M22 Locust light tank and MTLS-1G14 medium tank
Since the MTLS-1G14 medium tanks did not meet the standards of the American army, which already had more efficient medium tanks in service, and also received low ratings from specialists during tests at the Aberdeer test site, it was decided to write off all existing tanks with their subsequent cutting. At the same time, the implementation of this decision in May 1943 was suspended for 6 months. All this time, the Americans tried to find a buyer for their equipment, offering MTLS-1G14 to various allies. However, all such attempts failed, and in 1944, all 105 tanks of this type that remained with the Americans were divided into scrap metal.
The performance characteristics of MTLS-1G14:
Overall dimensions: body length - 4572 mm, width - 2642 mm, height - 2565 mm, ground clearance - 457 mm.
Combat weight - 16, 3 tons.
The power plant is a 6-cylinder Hercules HXE carburetor engine with a capacity of up to 240 hp.
The maximum speed is 42 km / h (on the highway).
Armament - two 37-mm automatic cannons AAC Type F, 5-6x7, 62-mm machine guns Colt-Browning M1919A4.
Crew - 4 people.

Life for Barnet’s residents has changed beyond all recognition, however, Barnet Council is working hard to maintain a semblance of normality. Our beautiful parks and open spaces have remained open, providing much needed respite from home confinement. Weekly bin collections continue and the recycling centre at Summers Lane is open by appointment, you can book your slot on the council’s website.
The council quickly built an online payment system to ensure Barnet’s businesses received Government help. So far, £47million has been distributed to 3,000 eligible businesses.
Our most vulnerable residents, the shielded, have been contacted to check they are safe and well. Over 3,000 deliveries of food and essentials were delivered to those who needed them.
The council has stepped up to the challenge and so have our communities. Churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, charities, residents associations and neighbours have all been working hard to look after those in need.
I give my sincerest thanks to those who have volunteered, to our frontline workers and carers and to residents who followed the Government’s advice to stay at home. As the lockdown eases, we must stay alert and continue to look out for those less fortunate.

Former Raven Derrick Mason With A Players Perspective On Training Camp
Derrick Mason is a former NFL player who spent time with the Titans, Jets, Texans and Ravens organizations.
Derrick joined Ed and Steve to give a players perspective on what training camp is like in the NFL and the Ray Rice suspension and his thoughts on if it was the right punishment for the crime.
Derrick started by talking the Ray Rice situation saying “considering what happened I thought the punishment would be a little bit more harsh…thought it would be at least 6 games.” As for Rice being a first time offender Derrick said “it only takes a first time to ruin your reputation…this shouldn’t happen ever again.” Derrick went on to talk more about the Ray Rice suspension and also talked about training camp briefly and playing in cities who had lost their franchises like Houston and Baltimore.
