Paper Dragon
Are the Germans creating an imaginary media demon?
On one side of the English Channel, Daily Express owner Richard Desmond screams that all Germans are Nazis and goosesteps around a boardroom mocking the German Springer Verlag's bid to buy the Daily Telegraph. On the other side of the Channel, the national project to keep the Kirch media empire in German hands fails. And the bogeyman that takes it over is an American-Israeli billionaire, a cross between a beach boy and, so the media would have us believe, Shylock.
Reading about business transactions in the papers can be duller than dishwater—unless of course these transactions involve the media themselves and there are (nasty) foreign bidders waiting in the wings. Then we have a story that's hip and juicy: one that highlights prejudices and casts light on our fears as a society. Characters who otherwise have little celebrity status suddenly find themselves propelled to center stage to be picked over by a rapacious gang of journalists.
Haim Saban has become the most celebrated absentee media mogul in Munich, thanks in part to Der Spiegel magazine's personalization of the story. Unfortunately, and it must be said, uncharacteristically, in covering Saban Der Spiegel has relied on the same stereotypes that abound in the reports found in the gutter press. A March 2003 article, entitled "Attack of the Beach Boys," was our first introduction to Saban: an American-Israeli, averse to publicity, a trickster who is always up for a surprise—appearing at meetings barefoot and then excusing himself from proceedings to gossip with secretaries and munch chocolate. He appears to be both an irritatingly good-natured beach-boy type and an unbelievably tough and insistent negotiator.
His good vibrations, however, seem to have unnerved the boardroom players and damaged a potential takeover deal, and insiders deemed his first bid a joke. His second proposal was more serious. But doubts lingered about Mr. Saban's interest in the long-term well being of the German media. He was not going to move to Munich or assert control over program content. What was to stop him from selling the company in two years after making a quick buck? There were also suspicions about his political connections to the Democratic Party and to the Israeli secret service, Mossad. Nevertheless, there was a general consensus that he was less obnoxious than Murdock or Berlusconi.
A week later Michael Jaffe, the Kirch Media liquidator, said in an interview that the creditors and company were satisfied with the proposed sale. Then, in May, we read that sunny boy was baring his teeth and beginning to make shameful demands. The bankers were repulsed by his narrow-mindedness and arrogance. The stockholders were no longer charmed. Rumors circulated that he was unwilling to invest a large portion of his personal capital and this was preventing him from scraping together a group of enthusiastic investors. By June the bankruptcy team had put together an alternative plan designed to shut out the American-Israeli. Saban, in turn, made major concessions, which soothed everyone's nerves. In August, Der Spiegel reported that the battle had been lost. Saban abandoned a yachting vacation off the coast of Mallorca and flew to Munich, with his family in tow. A committee of creditors voted to accept Saban's offer and the deal was closed two days later, in Basel.
The signing of the papers, according to Der Spiegel, was a historic moment. The control of foreign investors over approximately 50 percent of the German media landscape is unprecedented. Fortunately, Saban has a smaller role than was originally envisioned. Six other investors have a stake. But it is still a dangerous situation: he is the only investor who has veto power; there will be pressure to turn a quick profit; costs will be cut and staff will be fired. It appears that he will be the new chairman of the board and English will be the working language. A recent issue of Der Spiegel ran a long interview with Saban entitled "I'm Going to Surprise Everybody."
Well, that should not be difficult. His media persona is now so overlaid with stereotypical, yet contradictory images: the good businessman, the tricky little devil, a clannish Jewish media juggler, a stubborn, naïve, unflappable, laidback, barefoot, leisure-suit-wearing Californian, a disinterested American business-tourist making a brief visit to German-media territory, an active, concerned American citizen, a greedy American speculator who is going to sock it to the Germans, and so on. How could we not expect surprises? We don't know what to think?
Tabloid entertainment is the omnipresent affirmation of stereotypes. Like Reality TV, it leads to the cementation of illogical prejudices. The Saban story is a perfect example of a commercialized media that creates a need and a desire for more of this personalized, superficial drivel. MUNICH FOUND is proud not to be involved in producing this misbegotten rot. The popularity of tabloid entertainment expresses nothing more than our wish to put our brains to sleep; it draws the blinds and closes the windows on intelligent thought. Would somebody please wake up Mr. Desmond?

The Lair of the White Worm (Ken Russell, 1988)
The greatest film ever to feature a hallucinatory flight of macabre fancy, one that was induced by simply touching a wall mounted crucifix that had been slathered with a generous dollop of corrosive green venom, The Lair of the White Worm is a seductive masterwork of perverted deviancy. Mixing rural backwardness with state-of-the-art technology (a character can be seen at one point fiddling with a compact disc*), mythological horror with campy playfulness, and boasting a enough close-up shots of nylon stockings to drive someone who has a fetish for that sort of thing into a hosiery-based stupor, this Ken Russell (The Devils) directed lark, based on the novel by Bram Stoker, is a bizarre trip through the wormy labyrinth of an English town called D'Ampton. It's true, I could have used a little more dreamlike lunacy and a little less spelunking. But the flame-ridden, gang rape heavy freak-outs we do get were so memorable in terms of impaled nuns, untoward thrusting and prancing snake women with blue skin, that you will no doubt forgive the fact that they're sparingly employed. The story of two floppy-haired gents teaming up to battle a gigantic worm, and its lingerie-friendly helpers, the film begins and ends with a colossal hole. Genital in appearance, one opening is natural, while the other seems artificial. Of course, the exact details pertaining as to how each hole came to be are not important. (I had this whole tangent that involved a lot of crude wordplay ready to go, but I somehow lost the vaginal fortitude to carry on.)
What is important is that I mentioned the floppy state of the two male protagonists' hair. One of the first things we see (besides the hole) is the wind tussled hair of Angus Flint (Peter Capaldi) as he is about to discover the skull of a mysterious creature buried alongside a small collection of Roman coins. Popping into my mind like a thunderbolt as he dusted off his creepy find was the thought: Where's Hugh Grant? I mean, who is this floppy-haired impostor? Well, apparently this film has two actors with floppy hair.
You see, Mr. Grant plays James D'Amption, a so-called "nobleman" who has family connection with the worm in the film's title, and just happens to have a follicle traffic jam playing out over and over again on the surface of his forehead.
(I can't believe I passed on making vagina puns in order to babble incessantly about floppy hair.)
At any rate, the weird skull found by the archaeologically inclined Scotsman leads James, the Lord with a family history that revolves around fighting large slippery creatures, to come to the conclusion that something strange is afoot. This beckons him to take Angus, along with the Trent sisters Mary (Sammi Davis) and Eve (Catherine Oxenberg), whose parents have disappeared, to search the caves on the out skirts of town. (I loved how their mining helmets temporarily subdued the behaviour of their chaotic hair.)
Meanwhile, a dangerous temptress, who doesn't look like a giant worm, is lurking in the woods. She says she has a fear of snakes, but you could totally that Lady Sylvia Marsh (Amanda Donohoe) was down with reptiles.
You could also say that Lady Sylvia has a bit of a worm skull fixation.
Oozing a raw, unvarnished sexual magnetism, Amanda is a sinister delight as the predatory Lady Sylvia. In fact, every moment she was on-screen was a reason to be thankful. Wielding her slender legs with a reckless abandon rarely seen outside your average slab of 1970s-era Eurosleaze, Amanda is seemingly in a constant state of erotic entanglement. Whether lounging in intimidating lingerie or caressing Catherine Oxenberg's prestigious calves with a largish worm dildo while lounging (the woman loves to lounge) in a tanning bed, Miss Donohoe seems to relish the opportunity to a play a woman with a serpentine disposition.
Out of all the stark imagery in The Lair of the White Worm, I couldn't help but notice that a lot of people seem to be drawn the nightmarish temperament of the scenes that are a result someone becoming exposed to the poison coursing through Lady Sylvia's saliva. I, on the other hand, was immediately taken with Hugh Grant's kooky dream involving Amanda Donohoe, Catherine Oxenberg and Sammi Davis as flight attendants who are not afraid to show off the bluish resplendence of their stockings.
A Scotsman with a live grenade and an equally live mongoose in his sporran is swell and junk, but I'll take Amanda Donohoe and Catherine Oxenberg wrestling to synthesizer music in the aisle of a super-sonic jet over that any day of the week.
The chic clothing Amanda's Lady Sylvia wears throughout this movie should inspire someone to design an entire fashion line around them, as I have no troubling whatsoever imagining them strolling down the more perversion-centric runways of world.
Costume designer Michael Jeffery dresses Amanda in a wide array of sexy outfits. My personal fave being the tight brown getup she wore while sitting in a tree. (I'm still trying to figure out how she managed to get up there in those heels.)
Coming in at a close second was her blue flight attendant uniform. Which, like the majority of looks, is adorned with a pin or broach with a snake theme.
Her long white coat with a matching three-cornered hat was Lady Sylvia's introductory outfit, and I must say, it does an excellent job of establishing her unique sense of style. The fact that the many different types of nylons she sports throughout the movie were colour coordinated to fit her many moods was not lost on me. A snake sheds its skin in order to grow, and in turn, so does Amanda's slithery enchantress.
Now, like most people, I tend to wear the same thing everyday (an infrequently laundered pair of black sweatpants and a twenty-year old Front Line Assembly t-shirt). However, in the high end word of Lady Sylvia, changing clothes is second nature. The white nylons of her introductory outfit obviously represent the worm of the film's title (the film is not called The Lair of the Magenta Worm for a reason). Her brown nylons signify the soil of the earth, which is, you guessed it, the place where worms generally live. And the blue nylons, well, they stand for the large area, known in some circles as "the sky," that hovers over the soil of the earth.
You can't help but notice that none of the other characters in the film have a sense of style that can match Lady Sylvia's. I mean, floppy hair, gaudy prom dresses and frumpy sweaters can't compete with the intensity that only a pair of thigh-high leather boots can provide. Yet even though this struggle for fashion dominance ends up being a strictly one-sided affair, to see a character vanquish her foes in one particular field, while simultaneously have their perfectly proportionate ass handed to them from a good vs. evil perspective was fascinating on a number of misguided levels.

I will contribute more feedback, but seeing Peter Capaldi reminds me of how awesome In the Loop was.
I was on a huge Hugh Grant kick (me? really?) in the mid-90's when I saw this one on video. As you can imagine, my reaction was something along the lines of "What the ****?!?"
Darius Whiteplume June 22, 2010 at 9:44 AM
I love this movie. It and Salomé's Last Dance are highly underrated in the genre of perverted horror.
Hmm... Mood stockings. Someone should get to work on that.
J.D. June 22, 2010 at 11:10 AM
This is one crazy-ass film and God bless (or damn depending on your religious affiliation) Ken Russell for having the cojones to make it. Wow. This film is trippy on more than a few levels but you sure nailed it in terms of floppy hair and nylons. That's what a lot of horror films are missing nowadays - directors with nutty fetishes who aren't above sticking them in their films.
Awesome review.
TheAnswerMVP2001 June 22, 2010 at 9:36 PM
I couldn't even make it through this film I thought it was so boring. I figured Hugh Grant in a horror had to be something amazing. Not for me.
Yum-Yum June 22, 2010 at 9:41 PM
Karim Amir: I hear the language used in In the Loop is quite saucy.
I envy your 90s-era, WTF-esque reaction to TLOTWW, as my 90s were pretty WTF-free. (You know, in terms of Hugh Grant kicks and watching movies about giant worms.)
Adam Lambert's look at the Much Music Video Awards reminded me of Nivek Ogre circa 1986.
World Cup: North Korea lost, big time. :(
Darius W: Note to self: Watch Salomé's Last Dance.
Of course, the DVD is going for 177 bucks on Amazon.ca.
Why must everything be so hard? I want more perverted horror!
J.D.: Thanks, J.D. I'm glad you likey.
I realize that viewing the film from a strictly floppy hair and nylon-based perspective was a tad risky, but I'm content with my decision.
Karim Amir June 23, 2010 at 3:03 PM
Are you okay? I heard about the earthquake!
Karim Amir: Other than feeling like the earth was gonna swallow me up, I'm peachy keen. :)
TheAnswerMVP2001: I am truly sorry that you were unable to appreciate this film on any discernible level.
Ian June 23, 2010 at 11:32 PM
Yum-Yum, I've been searching high and low for a copy of Rinse Dreams' Dr. Caligari and can only find a $100 laser disc version which is not my speed.
I actually stumbled upon your site during my nearly yearly quest. I'll be returning often.
Any clue of how to get my hands on a copy?
Also, a review of 'Meet the Feebles' might fit in with some of these classics.
I got my of copy of Dr. Caligari at an adult website called Excalibur Films. Sure, it doesn't come with cover art, but as far I know, it's the best version of the film commercially available at the moment. Plus, it's quite inexpensive.
I've always wanted to see Meet the Feebles.
Excalibur Films
@Yum-Yum - You can reject this comment if you want. I have a VHS-to-DVD transfer of Salomé's Last Dance if you are interested. I am trying to think of how to get it to you digitally. I don't use RapidShare or any of that stuff. I could perhaps set up the FTP on my home computer, but it is quite slow, so might mean a long transfer time. I could snail-mail you a copy, but I know you relish your anonymity. If you want to email me, dariuswhiteplume@gmail.com.
Thanks, man. If things get desperate--you know, not seeing Salome's Last Dance-wise--I'll be sure let you know.
Oh, and congrats on getting 200 followers.
Nine-Fingered Menace June 25, 2010 at 9:57 PM
Definately Hugh Grant's best film. And the theme song is one of the best pieces of exposition I've seen in a movie. It scandalized my little sister though, when she watched part of it with me and a friend in high school. More than a decade later and she still doesn't trust my taste in movies.
Nine-Fingered Menace June 26, 2010 at 9:03 AM
If you live anywhere near Boise Idaho, I know a place where you could get your hands on VHS copies of Doctor Caligari and Salome's Last Dance.
Boise, eh?
Hershel Heimowitz's Potato Video: The Quickening.
Hey Yum. How's the G20?
Yes, In the Loop's dialogue is very saucy and very funny, just
like this review.
The worm. I remember the worm. I don't remember the mongoose. I like mongeese.
How's the G20? Hopefully over and done with. I mean, what a colossal waste of time and money.
I'll keep an eye out for In the Loop on my cable dial.
Mongoose are adept at killing snakes.
It's official: All the cool countries have been knocked out of the World Cup. (Bye, Slovakia.)
Will Errickson July 2, 2010 at 12:52 PM
Now this is my kinda horror flick. Good Lord is Amanda Donohoe sizzling hott here. An '80s classic. Great post! More people need to see it.
Stoydja July 9, 2010 at 7:13 PM
Got and watched Dr. Caligari from excalibur films. Thanks for the pro-tip! Don't forget about 'Meet the Feebles' and if you enjoy that move on up to 'Let My Puppets Come'!
Will Errickson: Thanks, Will. :)
Stoydja: You're welcome.
Oh, I won't forget Meet the Feebles.

If you need more Amanda Donohoe (and who doesn't) track down Nic Roeg's Castaway. It a battle-of-the-sexes movie with Oliver Reed and a perpetually nude Donohue. Not quite as psychedelic as some of roeg's other work but def worthwhile. Wasn't on dvd last i checked. I have transfer from vhs
Yum-Yum January 22, 2016 at 5:33 PM
A perpetually nude Amanda Donohoe? Sold.

Mad Season is reuniting with Chris Cornell, without two dead members
Eric Rovie
Even heroin can't completely kill grunge-era bands: Seattle supergroup Mad Season will sort-of reunite for a performance with the Seattle Symphony next year, with ex-Guns N' Roses member Duff McKagan taking over on bass fro, the late John Baker Saunders, and Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell filling in for the late Layne Staley on lead vocals.
Mad Season—originally consisting of Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready, Screaming Trees drummer Barrett Martin, and Saunders and Staley from the Walkabouts and Alice in Chains, respectively—released only one album, 1994's Above, before going on indefinite hiatus in 1996. Saunders died of a heroin overdose in 1999, with Staley doing the same three years later.
Since then, Martin and McCready have reconvened in several formations over the years, including hiring Screaming Trees' Mark Lanegan to front Mad Season—which changed its name to Disinformation—and working on an aborted second album. More recently, the two performed at a 2012 benefit with Loaded's Jeff Rouse on vocals, and earlier this year announced a new group with McKagan plus a rotating cast of vocalists.
The January 30 show will take place as part of The Seattle Symphony's "Sonic Evolutions" series paying tribute to Seattle's musical heritage, and will feature the symphony performing several grunge-inspired orchestral pieces—including a McCready composition—before Mad Season 2.0 takes the stage. At that point, blue-haired audience members will be faced with the possibly stroke-inducing juxtaposition of a symphony orchestra, Seattle's Vocalpoint! boys choir, and Cornell's growling vocals on renditions of "River Of Deceit," "I Don't Know Anything," and "Long Gone Day."

O músculo redondo menor é um músculo estreito e alongado do manguito rotador. O músculo se origina da margem lateral e superfície posterior adjacente da escápula esquerda ou direita correspondente, e se insere no tubérculo maior do úmero e superfície posterior da cápsula articular que envolve a cavidade glenóide e a cabeça do úmero.

A função primária do m. redondo menor é modular a ação do m. deltóide, prevenindo, assim, que a cabeça do úmero deslize para cima na abdução do braço. Também tem função de rodar o úmero lateralmente. O m. redondo menor é inervado pelo nervo axilar.

Embriogênese
Origina-se do mesênquima da camada somática do mesoderma lateral do embrião.

Ações
O músculo infraespinhal e o redondo menor promovem a rotação lateral da cabeça do úmero (externa, "para fora"); eles também ajudam na movimentação do braço para trás.

Relações
O tendão deste músculo passa através da parte posterior da cápsula da articulação do ombro, e está ligado a ela.

Variações
Algumas vezes, as fibras do músculo redondo menor podem estar fundidas com as fibras do músculo infraespinhal, tornando-os inseparáveis.

A new judicial tool that unifies Cuba's geological policy, together with the peculiarities of its introduction and the actors taking part of it, is published today in the Gaceta Oficial de Cuba.
As the director of Geology of the Ministry of Energy and Mines, Enrique Castellanos, detailed, in press conference at the headquarters of that organism, this regulatory framework improves the organization in that sphere to benefit directly several branches of the national economy.
The Decree 345 of the Council of Ministers and the six resolutions associated to it, specify that the activity is governed by a Development Program at médium and long term according to the own social and economic policy designed by the country.
One of the most notable contributions of the regulation is the creation of the National Geology Council which will be formed by a dozen organisms for the coordination of geological studies in the nation, revealed Castellanos.
According to the norms, several organisms of the State's central administration will meet periodically to project the geological studies to be carried out in the country in the following years, he said.
This will prevent excessive expenses, duplicity in the import of equipment and contribute to improve the priorities as their financial distribution because all the volume of geological activity of the country will be known, he added.
The regulation also defines that the entities to exploit mineral resources, will pay the State a compensation rate for the geological research work made and, at the same time, defines the main aspects of the national cartography.
These legal regulations, without precedents in the Cuban geological field, become a pertinent tool before the notable increase in geological activity levels in the country, asserted Castellanos.
Only for 2019, he explained, 26 works of search and evaluation of mineral resources are planned, of which the Cuban State will obtain a varied supply of raw materials such as limestone, sand, clays, marble and magnesite.

Self-checkout machines at a mostly automated Casino store in the center of Paris.Credit…Dmitry Kostyukov for The New York Times
There was outrage throughout France as the country was caught up in a debate over the recent introduction of a self-checkout point at the Gèant Casino de la Roseraie which permanently replaced staff.
The self-checkout became fully effective on Wednesday, 25 December 2019.
It was a typical Sunday shopping-day with customers queued up after picking out their groceries and ready to make their payments at the till. Only, it was rather peculiar that on this day all the cashiers were gone. What on earth was happening?
Some customers were thrilled by the fact that they were going to self-checkout, however, those that fully analyzed the situation were startled as to why Gèant Casino de la Roseraie would make such a decision.
It turned out the Gèant Casino de la Roseraie had found a loophole in the system, as French Labour laws state that no employee should work beyond 1 p.m. on Sundays.
The regulations didn't state that stores needed to be closed after 13h00. Therefore the organization decided on introducing automated self-checkout machines in their store to avoid having to close early for the day.
Some workers fear that their jobs are now at stake, which is why dozens gathered around the Casino supermarket in protest of the decision made by the organization. They were seen waving flags, blocking entry and speaking through megaphones in protest of this new decision.
While the casino's latest workaround did not technically break any labor laws, it drew widespread criticism from local officials, trade unions and some Yellow Vest protesters.
Karin Engel, deputy mayor overseeing commerce in Angers, told France 24 she found the move by the chain store actions to be "fairly dishonest."
Trade unionists fear that this move could lead to workers being redundant and automated machines taking over.

Now that you have gotten into the race, running and completing the race is not the only thing that you may have to worry about. Preparing for this race physically, mentally, emotionally and logistically can be a huge task. The version of this course was run in 2018 for the first time, so even if you have run a lot of races in New York City, this race may still be relatively new to you!
So I thought I would put this article together for everyone to benefit from the discussions that I had last year in the group. As time goes on I will be updating this post with new developments or changes to the race.
This post is heard towards out of towners running the race but there is definitely info in here for native New Yorkers as well. It's a long read but I think there is something for everyone in here!
Getting your bib at the Expo is only the beginning of the fun!
Whether you are traveling in from out of town or whether you live here in New York City, you will have to make your way to the Half Marathon Expo. For those that live in the New York City area who are accustomed to picking up their race day bibs at the NYRR Run Center, that will not be an option this time around. Further, you will not be able to pick your bibs up on the morning of the race either! That makes it super important that you plan some time either on the Thursday (11:00am – 9:00pm), Friday (11:00am – 9:00pm) or Saturday (9:00am – 6:00pm) before the race to make it down to the Expo. The Expo is located at 125 west 18th street, New York, NY 10011 (between 6th and 7th avenues).
* Note the times listed above for the expo were the times that the Expo was open in 2018. The hours of the expo have not been listed yet but will likely be listed a couple of weeks before the race. It is likely they will be similar but check back here closer to race day for the exact operating times of the Expo!
When heading to the Expo, give yourself some time to be there. Getting your bib and race shirt should be quick, but there is usually a lot of fun little things for you to see or do there. A race pacer booth will be set up so that you can speak with race pacers to talk about strategy to meet your desired goal time. I was able to confirm with NYRR that you will be able to pick up a "race pace" bracelet at the expo to help you keep pace with your desired goal time. These are several different bracelets each with a different goal time. The bracelet then tells you the mile splits you will need to hit in order to run that bracelet's goal target time. Among other things to do at the expo is look for your name on the wall of runners, take some pictures or do some shopping from the racks of merchandise they are sure to have! The official race day gear sponsor New Balance will be on hand and sometimes you can score some free giveaways! Whatever it is, just give yourself some time at the Expo! You won't regret it!
If you can't fit some time in to get to Expo yourself, there is an option to send someone as your proxy to get your bib. That involves having your proxy bring a copy of your photo ID, with your name matching the name attached to the bib. Your proxy should also have a copy of your race day confirmation form. Your race day confirmation form can be found by logging into your NYRR account. This will be available a couple of weeks before the race so don't panic about having that yet! While this is an option, you will miss all of the fun at the expo!
Know Your Transportation To The Start Line!
This is the first year that the course will start in Brooklyn and end in Manhattan. As such you will have to plan out your traveling plans in order to get to the starting line on time! The race is on a Sunday morning which means New York City subways will be operating with less trains than they usually do during the week. Further, the NYC MTA has a tendency of doing a lot of track work on weekends. This means give yourself lots of commuting time if you will be riding the subways to the race that morning. Last year, New York Road Runners Club released a detailed diagram of Prospect Park and where runners will need to go to enter the starting corrals. Based on that diagram below, it looks like the Q, 4 & 5 trains are the preferred subways to take the start of the race. One important thing to note, even though it is advertised that the race will start in Grand Army Plaza, runners will have to enter the corrals on the other side of the park over by Flatbush Avenue & Empire Blvd. Make note of that and make sure you travel to the right location! Traveling to the Grand Army Plaza station will only make you walk all the way around to the start of the corrals.
Diagram of the starting line for the United NYC half!
One thing that I STRONGLY urge you to do is check out the service advisory section of the MTA website. They are notorious for scheduling track work or other maintenance that can severely affect train service on the weekend. The last thing you want to do is be on your way to the race, only to find out that morning that the train you planned on taking that morning was not working! Plan ahead! To assist with that, the MTA actually has a "Trip Planner" available. This trip planner takes into consideration any service advisories that may be in play that day. I tested this a couple of weeks back when I did my trial run of the course (click here to read my review of the course!). The day I used the Trip Planner, there were service advisories for the subway lines I used that day. The trip planner told me about them and factored them into my traveling time. I got to the starting line to meet my group for the trial run on time with no issues just as the trip planner had planned it out for me! For reference the name of the subway stops you can travel to are in the graphic above. Enter those subway station names into the trip planner along with the station you are traveling from. It works – use it!
Aside from subways, NYC taxi cabs, Uber & Lyft are an option. Just keep in mind, traffic to that area will be heavy. Further street closures in Brooklyn leading up to the park may snarl traffic. Give yourself some time if you plan on taking some form of car service to the start! As for driving yourself, I strongly suggest against it. 25,000 people will be heading to the start area. I tried to park at Prospect Park a few weeks ago for a race that only had 5,000 participants and it was chaos on that day! Imagine having 5 times the number of runners and trying to look for parking! Leave your car at home!
Many folks will be traveling into New York City specifically for the race. If you are like many of these folks, you might be getting to New York on Thursday, Friday or even Saturday. If you are lucky enough to get in Thursday or Friday, do your moving around the city those days. The St. Patrick's Day Parade will be held on Saturday March 16th because St Patricks Day falls on a Sunday this year. The Catholic Church will not allow the parade to occur on a Sunday so the parade will be on Saturday instead! With that said, Manhattan is full of parade goers and party goers looking to seek a celebration or two in honor of the famous Irishman! The festivities always seem to end up in an abundance of alcohol being consumed so if you had your heart set on going to a restaurant or bar in Manhattan on this Saturday, just know that it may full of festive party goers enjoying St. Patricks's Day. Further, getting around town may be tough on the day before the race as the parade route goes right up 5th avenue, smack dab in the middle of Manhattan. As I mentioned, plan your day on Saturday accordingly to work around the St. Patrick's Day congestion.
There is no question that the St. Patrick's Day Parade is the most popular parade in New York City and one to enjoy if you are ok with having a couple of drinks. But for the person who has trained for weeks in preparation for 13 miles on Sunday, you might want to skip the festivities this year. If you need to unwind with some beverages, seek out hotel bars or lounges who will likely not allow St Patrick's Day revelers into their establishments. Better yet, by a bottle of wine or a 6 pack and sip comfortably and responsibly in your hotel room if you absolutely must, although personally, I recommend you save it for AFTER the race!
What to wear come race day morning?
Weather in New York City in the month of March is extremely unpredictable. There have been 70 degree days in March and there have been insane snow storms in the month of March. In 2017, the race was run on the heels of a pretty strong snow storm during the week leading up to the race. The temperature at the start of the race was 30 degrees. In 2018 while there was no snow on the ground, the wind chills had the temperature feeling like 20 degrees. While the temperature could be cold at the beginning, it could warm up rather quickly as the race progresses as well. So how does one dress??
I suggest to wear some layers to the race that you will be comfortable parting with. There are close to 25,000 runners competing in the United NYC Half Marathon. This means that the bag check won't be close to the starting line. In fact if you look at the graphic of the starting area above, the bag check is before you even enter the secure zone. Think hard about what you want to check in and what you will be able to bring with you thru security and to the starting corral. Keep in mind that you can only check in a clear bag. NYRR wants to see the contents contained in your bag. Also, I have confirmed with NYRR that your bag will be transported via courier to the finish line at Central Park so don't worry about having to come back to Brooklyn to get your stuff! Check your bag in with confidence!
In terms of other items allowed past security, water bottles in excess of one liter will not be allowed. Camelpacks are also not allowed either. To be honest, those likely aren't even needed. The race course will have a water station just about every mile along with some water stands that will include Gatorade. There is even a "Powebar Gel" station along the Half marathon route!
The security check point will include a metal detector and you will pass thru it like you do at an airport. Your cell phone, keys, money, etc., will go in a dish and then they will wand you and you will go thru a metal detector. All of this means that if you're checking items into the bag check, you will have to do it early to give yourself enough time to get thru security. This could cause your wait in the corral to be anywhere from 30-60 minutes.
Going back to how you should dress, you will want to stay warm in the corrals for this period of time. This is where the extra layers come into play. Remember, it will be anywhere between 7am – 8am when runners start since there are two waves. Once your wave starts, you can peel a layer or two off and part with them by placing them in one of the several donation bins that will be lining the starting line area. That's right, you won't be seeing those items again, so plan accordingly!
Going back to checking in your items at the bag check, one thing to consider when packing your check-in bag, is that it may be cold or rainy this day. Consider packing a dry or warm change of clothes in your check in bag for after the race. The last thing you want to have happen is to be standing around after the race in cold or wet clothes. You can easily duck into a portable john to get out of those wet clothes if you choose after you retrieve your checked in bag. If you despise portable bathrooms like some folks do, you can head over to the New York Road Runners Run Center (320 West 57th street b/w 8th & 9th avenues) which is not too far from the finish line to use some of their changing rooms there.
As of the editing of this article, we are still three plus months away from race day. Its impossible to know the weather but I will update this post a week before the race with the 7 day outlook weather wise and what I would wear to the start that day!
Finally, the course itself! As mentioned earlier, last year New York Road Runners Club decided to change the course route that had been in effect for several years. The race last year started at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn and finished in Central Park. The reason for the change is because the race is getting bigger each year and they are looking for a wider course and one that has a larger finish line and finish area. Logistically also, finishing in Central Park allows them to keep the finish area open longer so that runners don't have to worry about having to finish their race under a certain time.
The course map is just above. If you have run this race before you will notice that this course has a lot more hills than the previous version of it. What make it worse is that a lot of the hills are towards the end of the race. If you look at the elevation chart at the bottom of the below graphic, miles 8 thru the end of the race are a series of climbs most of them which will be in Central Park. Just before that there is a stretch of 7th avenue from 42nd street up until the entrance of Central Park which is all up hill. If this stretch may look familiar to those who have run this race before thats because the race used to run the opposite way down 7th avenue after you exited the park. This year, you are running a slow steady climb for 15 blocks before you get into Central Park! If you haven't thrown in hill work into your training, now may be the time! For a more comprehensive review of the course, you can read the review I wrote up after I did an actual trial run of the course last year. You can find that article here! I will be doing another trial run of the course now in January and February along with members of We Are NYC Running Club. Check back on this site for more details on when that will be happening!
You made it 13.1 miles to the finish in Central Park – CONGRATULATIONS! You're not done yet! Once you are done with the race, you will still have about a half mile walk. During that walk, family will not be allowed in this half mile are as it is considered a "runners only" area. Family can watch you finish the race during the last mile. See the graphic above and note that they can enter the park on the west side the park via two entrances. They will not be able to meet you however on there other side of the finish line.
Once you have crossed the finish line, you have approximately a half mile walk that will lead you to the southern exit of the park close to Columbus Circle. I highly suggest, that you meet with family away from the park after the race. The area around Columbus Circle will be pure chaos. During your half mile walk you will get your recovery bag, water, and of course, your well deserved medal! There will also be stations set up to take post race pictures with your medals or your friends. Medical tents and bathrooms will be available during this half mile walk as well. It may be a half mile, but trust me, it will pass by really quickly!
Speaking of medals, make sure to get your medals ENGRAVED after the race! I confirmed with NYRR that medal engraving will be available immediately after the race at the NYRR Run Center on Sunday from 10am – 5pm. If you are not in the mood to stand on line to get your medal engraved after the race, medal engraving will also be available at the run center on Monday 3/18 from 12pm – 7pm and on Tuesday 3/19 from 4pm – 7pm. Unfortunately medal engraving is only for NYRR members. However there is nothing stopping you from becoming a NYRR member before the race to not only take advantage of free engraving but to also take part in their future races. Of course as an alternative to all of this, you can also get your medal engraved else where.
I am a stickler for logistics. I put this together because so many of you worked hard to prepare for this race and I don't want to see you throw it away because you thought you could pick up your bib on race day morning or you took the wrong train to the start or your dressed incorrectly. You deserve better than that! Now go out there are crush this NYC Half Marathon!
If you found this information helpful, then I am glad I could help. As I mentioned earlier, if you happen to be running either the Popular Brooklyn Half Marathon or TCS New York City Marathon, I have similar group discussions going on now. Here is the one for the Brooklyn Half and here is the one for TCS NYC Marathon Why not join these groups and get in on all of the information being exchanged there!
This race is definitely on the bucket list. Love that medal!!
It's a hard one to get into but keep giving it a shot!! If you live in the NYC area there is an easy way to get in!
Unfortunately I'm all the way over on the west coast. Several of my friends have got in through the lottery…so maybe someday!!
I'm not, I'm over on the west coast. 🤦🏼♀ Several of my friends have made it in through the lottery sooo…fingers crossed!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is great and so helpful. Can't wait for March!
I didn't get in for the first time in 3 years after not getting into the marathon for the first time in 2 years. I'm feeling a little less love from the Big Apple but I've discovered there's lots of other races that weekend, so maybe its time to change my March travel routine.
What time do you need to show up at the start? I can take a Q line straight there but need to know how much time to allow. Thanks.
Hey Trent! Sorry took a little social media break for the holiday! I would check the MTA trip planner first to see if the train is running . There tends to be a lot of construction on the weekend. If all is ok how much time you need really depends on where you are coming from?
I guess what I am asking is how early do you need to be there to get in the corrals. Once I know that then I can back track time to the hotel. I will be coming from the Reaidence Inn bear Central Park south.


CANCUN, Mexico — A former "Survivor" producer has been convicted of murdering his wife during a 2010 Cancun beach vacation, a state prosecutor said.
Bruce Beresford-Redman was sentenced to 12 years in prison Thursday by Judge Víctor Manuel Echeverria Tun, Quintana Roo state prosecutor Gaspar Armando Garcia Torres said.
The American producer was on vacation in Cancun with his Brazilian-born wife, Monica Burgos Beresford-Redman, and their two children in 2010 when her body was found in a sewer cistern at the resort where they were staying.
The vacation was supposed to be an attempt to repair their marriage after she learned her husband had cheated on her.
The family of Burgos issued a statement through their lawyer, Alison Triessl, late Thursday.
Stephen Jaffe, a spokesman for Beresford-Redman's U.S. attorneys, said a Mexican lawyer for the 43-year-old producer would comment later regarding an appeal.
Garcia Torres left open the possibility prosecutors would appeal for a longer prison term after analyzing the judge's decision.
Beresford-Redman maintained his innocence. But in 2011 a U.S. court upheld his extradition and shortly after he was sent back to Mexico in 2012, a judge ordered the Emmy-nominated producer to stand trial on a murder charge.
Evidence in the case included statements from hotel guests who said they heard loud arguing and cries of distress coming from the couple's room on the night the 42-year-old victim went missing.
The producer's lawyers maintained the noises came from Beresford-Redman and his children playing loud games throughout the night and argued there was not any forensic evidence that he killed his wife.
Beresford-Redman had been ordered to stay in Mexico when his wife's body was found, but he returned to Los Angeles, where he surrendered to authorities after an arrest warrant was issued in Mexico.

On October 30, 2020 14:51 (UTC), a moment magnitude (M) 7.0 (USGS, EMSC) earthquake occurred in the Aegean Sea. This paper presents the reconnaissance findings regarding the site effects on recorded strong ground motion intensities and duration, along with the resulting induced-structural damage in Izmir Bay and Samos Island, respectively. In all rock records, relatively high intensity long period rock spectral accelerations were observed in the mid to long period range of 0.5-1.5 s, which are attributed to the source, more specifically, to the slower rupture-mechanism of the event. These rich spectral intensities were further amplified by soil site effects and soil-superstructure resonance, leading to two to six times amplified overall responses and prolonged seismic shaking durations, more pronounced in Bayrakli and other Izmir Bay sites in Turkey. However, these amplified and prolonged excitations are still below design basis earthquake levels, which addresses the lack of proper structural design and construction deficiencies, as the underlying causes for the collapse to heavy damage performance of 795 buildings. On the other hand, although located only about 10 km from the rupture (22 km from the epicenter) and within the near fault zone, the town of Vathy on Samos Island (Greece) was rather lightly affected by the earthquake, with relatively few collapsed or heavily damaged buildings, partially attributed to the low height/low weight of structures in the area. However, a concentration of damage in low-rise buildings in Ano Vathy hill is considered indicative of a combination of coupled valley and topography effects on the strong motion. This event once again addressed the need to develop region-specific zonation and provisions, when more general code practices are proven to be inadequate to assess these extreme site effects.

The Assessment of Seismic Site Effects During The 24 January 2020 Elazig-Sivrice Mw: 6.8 Earthquake
Elsaid, Alaa; Çetin, Kemal Önder; Department of Earthquake Studies (2022-2-11)
At 8:55 p.m. local time (17:55 GMT) on January 24, the Sivrice district of Elazig, located on Turkey's second-largest fault system, was struck by a severe earthquake with a magnitude of 6.8 (AFAD) or 6.7 according to USGS. Tragically, the earthquake resulted in severe devastation, including structural damage and fatalities. In order to aid in the mitigation of potential earthquake damage that may occur in the region and to serve as a guide for site-specific seismic design for future earthquakes, the seismic...
Geotechnical reconnaissance findings of the October 30 2020, Mw7.0 Samos Island (Aegean Sea) earthquake
Ziotopoulou, Katerina; et. al. (2022-11-01)
On October 30, 2020 14:51 (UTC), a moment magnitude (Mw) of 7.0 (USGS, EMSC) earthquake occurred in the Aegean Sea north of the island of Samos, Greece. Turkish and Hellenic geotechnical reconnaissance teams were deployed immediately after the event and their findings are documented herein. The predominantly observed failure mechanism was that of earthquake-induced liquefaction and its associated impacts. Such failures are presented and discussed together with a preliminary assessment of the performance of ...
The possibility of tsunami in the Sea of Okhotsk caused by deep-focus earthquakes
Zaytsev, A. I.; Pelinovsky, E. N.; Kurkin, A. A.; Kostenko, I. S.; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet (2016-03-01)
The earthquake that occurred on May 24, 2013, in the basin of the Sea of Okhotsk with a magnitude of 8.3 was the strongest in this region. We have modeled a possible tsunami caused by such an earthquake. The simulations confirm that the wave heights were sufficiently small because the earthquake epicenter depth was 640 km. We analyze the oscillations of the DART buoys in the vicinity of the earthquake source and show that they were not associated with the tsunami waves. Analysis of the available pressure ga...
The depth effect of earthquakes on tsunami heights in the Sea of Okhotsk
Zaytsev, Andrey; Kostenko, Irina; Kurkin, Andrey; Pelinovsky, Efim; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2016-01-01)
The earthquake of magnitude M-w = 8.3 that occurred on 24 May 2013 in the Sea of Okhotsk was the most powerful earthquake in the region. Fortunately, the generated tsunami was small because of the deep focal depth (609 km) and was only detected by the nearest Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis (DART) buoy records. However, the event highlighted the fact that any earthquakes with similar magnitudes at shallower focal depths would have caused considerable tsunamis. In order to evaluate the effect...

We present a dataset of 77 strong ground motion records within 200 km epicentral distance from the 30 October 2020, M7.0 Samos Island (Aegean Sea) earthquake, which affected Greece and Turkey. Accelerograms from National Networks of both countries have been merged into a single dataset, including metadata that have been uniformly derived using a common preliminary source model.

Q: Calling SCNView snapshot function inside of renderer(_:didRenderScene:atTime:) fails after a few frame Calling the snapshot function of SCNView from inside of renderer(_:didRenderScene:atTime:) fails after a few frames.
Putting a breakpoint inside renderer(_:didRenderScene:atTime:) shows that the code gets executed for a few frames then stops.
1) Is snapshot too heavy to call inside of renderer(_:didRenderScene:atTime:)?
2) The goal is to turn changes to a SCNView into a video. Other questions are similar, but none of those solutions worked. Is there another way to render a SCNScene into video?
func renderer(_ renderer: SCNSceneRenderer, didRenderScene scene: SCNScene, atTime time: TimeInterval) {

In writing skills we had to do a news report of an actual natural dissaster, I make it of Hurricane Irma.
The last 30th of August, a hurricane category 7 known as "Irma", hit the coasts of Florida and the Caribbean, causing 82 fatalities and a cost of $62.9 billion of damage in its route. It dissipated the 16th September on the Coasts of New England.
Hurricane Irma started by a tropical wave that came from the Wests coasts of Africa, under hot temperatures on water, it reached a category 2 hurricane within 24 hours Irma became a category 3. On September 4, Irma resumed intensifying, becoming a category 5, on the 6th September, this devastating hurricane reached its highest peak intensity, with winds of 295 km/h, two days later, Irma hit the coasts of Cuba, causing 10 fatalities and a cost of $2.2 billion in damages.
This catastrophic hurricane ended with devastation in roads, houses, airports, also causing high temperatures in the countries it's hit and the evacuation of million of citizen of the areas affected. The countries affected had to pay an amount of $62.9 in reparations.
This didn't end with the lose of 82 people or damage in infrastructure, the lowest economy in countries like Haiti, would need money and help from others countries to recover.
