At Hazmat Holster Works we strive to offer our clients with a functional, durable, customized solution to meet their everyday carry (EDC) needs.
To maximize comfort and durability we build our holsters using .080 thickness Kydex. Kydex is a proven, durable material, with better retention characteristics than traditional leather holsters. Kydex is easy to maintain, and its excellent rigidity allows the holster to maintain its shape for easy re-holstering.
First and foremost, we've designed our holsters to be incredibly functional. Each holster is made so that the user can adopt a full combat grip on the firearm, so that when it's needed, you know where to find it!
We've designed our holsters with modularity, and customization in mind as well. We have intentionally placed rivets down the length of each side of the holster. This allows our clients to change how the holster rides at their waist by allowing them to move the belt loops into a position that's most comfortable for them. Our modular design also allows for maximum versatility. By switching out our standard OWB belt loops for IWB belt loops, our clients can easily move between both choices of carry, negating the need to buy a second holster.
Finally, we've designed our holsters to be the most comfortable holster you've ever worn. All of our holsters come standard with angle-cut corners to insure wearer comfort as well as freedom and ease of movement. In addition, the sides of each holster are folded inward towards the body, which serves to disperse the weight of your firearm over a wider area. It also allows the holster to hug the body snugly. This in turn minimizes 'printing' and allows the holster to perform more than adequately as a concealed carry solution, even in an OWB format.
At Hazmat Holster Works we stand behind our products. If your holster fails to meet your expectations in anyway, send it back to us within 30 calendar days from the date you received it, and we'll refund your purchase price, no questions asked. In addition to our 30-Day Money Back Guarantee, our holsters come with an Unlimited Lifetime Warranty. If one of our holsters breaks, or wears out, send it back to us and we'll either fix it or replace it.
At Hazmat Holster Works we want to build a relationship with you and be your go-to everyday carry (EDC) solution. In that spirit, feel free to contact us at info@hazmatholsterworks.com. We will do our best to get back to you in a timely fashion.

Australian election 2016
Pauline Hanson ready for her close up as One Nation given chance to rise again
The double-dissolution election has lowered the bar for the darling of Australia's far right to enter the Senate

Pauline Hanson, political pariah and genuine prospect for a Queensland Senate spot, has already in this election campaign done without much effort what she does best: divide people.
In this case, her Coalition, Labor, and Greens opponents – whom Hanson's fellow One Nation candidate Malcolm Roberts says contrarily "are basically working as one and we call them 'them'".
That the bar has been lowered for the darling of Australia's far right to enter the nation's upper house on her fifth try since 2001 is not lost on "them".
Coalition's Queensland dam bonanza 'threatens Great Barrier Reef'
A double dissolution has halved the necessary voting quota for candidates to 7.7%, and new Senate voting rules have put preference flows – which opponents have historically used to shut out Hanson – up in the air.
Murray Watt, who leads Labor's state Senate ticket, says the real prospect of Hanson's election is "pretty terrifying" and blames the Greens and the Coalition for colluding to change the voting rules.
Andrew Bartlett, the Greens' No 2 Senate candidate, says Hanson's views, which got her kicked out of the Liberal party 18 years ago, would now be "unremarkable" in the Coalition, given bouts of "refugee bashing, Muslim bashing and gay bashing" by figures who are either senior in the party or command widespread support.
Matthew Canavan, the Liberal National party senator from Rockhampton, says it was the Coalition that originally banished Hanson and that figures such as Ron Boswell and Tony Abbott "played a big role in bringing her down". He paints the Greens as being "just as extreme at times", accusing them of an intolerance of religious views that is "just as bigoted as the other side".
Where Labor, the Greens and the Coalition are united is in their concession that Hanson has a chance but is unworthy of a place in the national political debate.
The dozen Queensland Senate spots are currently split seven to five in favour of the conservative side of politics – although that's a label that doesn't always fit Glenn Lazarus, who this time around will be campaigning without the multimillion-dollar Palmer United party apparatus behind him.
Lazarus could benefit from his personal name recognition from a high-profile rugby league career – and a relatively prominent role in heading off Abbott and Turnbull government legislation on the Senate crossbench.

But if not, the political balance of Queensland's senators could well come down to a contest between Hanson and Bartlett, both former Senate candidates who have a history of campaigning directly against each other and whose political contrast could not be starker.
Ten spots in the upcoming Senate are all but spoken for.
All sides expect the LNP to win at least five, Labor at least four and the Greens at least one in the deputy party leader, Larissa Waters.
Some in the LNP and Labor rate themselves and each other as chance for an extra spot. That would either give the LNP its only female Queensland senator in Joanna Lindgren – the evangelical right-backed great niece of the Indigenous political pioneer Neville Bonner – or Labor its second, the Mackay-based Jane Casey, who would be its only north Queensland-based senator.
The LNP, which fell well shy of the 46.2% primary vote quota for six seats with 41.4% at the last two elections, will rely on preferences from the minor right parties to get there.
Labor, which failed to crack 30% in the primary vote in the last two elections after a one-off 39.2% off the back of the Kevin Rudd-led surge in 2007, will need heavy Greens preferences to reach the 38.5% needed for five Senate berths.
Both parties are thinking seriously now about the unknown effect of removing registered preference swaps, and how many how-to-vote cards, polling both voting primers, direct mailouts and robo-calls might be required to deal with the prospect of a raft of minor party votes exhausting and never coming back to them. There will be a concerted appeal to major party supporters in the lower house not to back a different horse in the Senate.
Canavan says anyone predicting the result is "selling fool's gold". But his sense is that Queensland voters who are "not shy in coming forward if they want to kick you out" – a la the Newman government – "haven't got the baseball bats out".
The blocking role of the Senate in this term of government should sway some on the right to go with the LNP amid the inevitably shrinking minor party vote after the short-lived popularity of PUP, he figures. There's concern regionally about unemployment in Queensland, which amid a mining slump is the nation's second highest behind South Australia's. "This would traditionally put us in good stead to run the message, who do you want running the economy at the moment, a successful businessman, a team that have balanced budgets before versus unionists running around the country spending like a drunken sailor?"
Watt says from campaigning in north Queensland "my sense and everything I'm hearing internally is the swings to Labor are stronger in regional Queensland in general".
He says while the Labor leader, Bill Shorten, has spent years knocking about with men in high-vis vests, "regional Queensland in particular have not taken to Turnbull and they do see him as a bit of a spiv from Sydney who, when he comes out and announces tax cuts for millionaires and multinational companies, there's not many of them in north Queensland".
"And they are the kind of people who depend very heavily on Medicare and public schools, those things that are threatened by Turnbull," Watt says.

Murray Watt, Labor candidate
Watt is returning to politics after a stint working as a lawyer with Maurice Blackburn, including as part of a legal team that won a civil justice award from the Australian Lawyers Alliance for their work representing "Baby Ferouz", the son of detained Rohingya asylum seekers.
The case led to the release of 31 babies from detention centres.
Watt is returning to the Senate for a party that supports offshore detention, which has a legal and moral basis that remains the subject of bitter contention.
He says he supports Labor's asylum policy, which is "far better than anything Malcolm Turnbull is offering".
It includes doubling the humanitarian intake and boost funding to the UNHCR to help speed up asylum claims overseas.
Labor would abolish temporary protection visas which left his own clients and others in limbo in Australia, with the threat of being returned to the country they escaped from.
It would introduce "independent oversight of offshore detention centres to ensure human rights are protected", he says.
"There are many other examples but just those four things would make a substantial difference to the lives of asylum seekers and have to be respected as being really clear differences between the two parties.
"Certainly the way Labor would approach it would be to get people out of detention as quickly as possible."
The Greens doubt whether Labor can get their fifth senator, having not polled more than 1% above the four-senator quota mark in 20 years (the Kevin07 campaign aside). Bartlett is the best chance of restoring a six-all balance of Queensland progressives and conservatives in the Senate, they argue.
Bartlett, who still commands recognition from his stint as leader of the now defunct Democrats last decade, says the second Senate spot is considered the party's best shot at an elected position in Queensland after Waters.
Hanson and Bartlett last went head to head for the Senate in 2001, when Bartlett, then with the Democrats, prevailed despite the inevitable flurry of publicity around his opponent. Adding to Bartlett's sense of déjà vu, he is vying to enter a parliament where marriage inequality and offshore detention of asylum seekers, issues he campaigned strongly on well over a decade ago with the Democrats, remain unresolved at the centre of the national political debate.
"It's sad in a way. I do hope this time, at least in regards to the marriage equality issue … that would be one bit of déjà vu it would be nice to revisit and repair,' he says, adding that it should be without a plebiscite that would be "even uglier" than the bipartisan "guillotining" of the debate with the Marriage Act of 2004.

But on offshore detention, "I think it's clearly got worse – the determination, the bloodymindedness in the system, the zero-mercy mindset is worse in the parliament", Bartlett says.
"I think the community again is shifting like it did last time when the cruelty just became too intolerable."
Hanson has updated her anti-immigration rhetoric from concerns about Australia being swamped by Asians 20 years ago to being swamped by Muslims today – with the added menace of linking their presence to terrorism threats.
One Nation is proposing nothing less than a cultural purge of Islam in Australia. This includes a halt to all immigration by Muslims; bans on burqas and niqabs in public places, halal certification, and the opening of new mosques pending a royal commission into whether Islam is "a religion or political ideology". They also call for surveillance cameras in existing mosques and Islamic schools.
"Islam has no place in Australia if we are to live in a cohesive society," the party's website states.
Hanson did not return calls.
But Roberts, who is One Nation's No 2 Queensland Senate candidate after Hanson, says he isn't sure whether a halt to Muslim immigration is actually their policy or not. He goes on to say Hanson "doesn't discriminate on the basis of skin colour or religion" and "wants to bring Australians together", he says.
Roberts' area of interest is climate science denial, arguing carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere are a result rather than a cause of temperature increases. He says human industry is not capable of lifting those concentrations, which gives us the "climate scam".
Pulling the threads of One Nation arguments to watch them unravel has long been irresistible to Australian media.
Opponents like Canavan argue Hanson is simply "a PR vehicle" and the risk of "[beating] her up" is enhancing her name recognition and prospects of election.
Hanson's record running for the Senate in 2001, 2004, 2007 and 2013 suggests she's more than capable of getting 4%, the threshold for public funding of a $250,000.
"If she spends it on campaigning, well and good, but she's getting a lot of free publicity," Bartlett says. This week her media rounds included appearing on Today, the top rating show on national morning TV.
Hanson has consistently denied personally claiming money from election campaigns, despite criticism including her 2004 Senate campaign costing $35,000 but getting a vote-based electoral commission refund of $200,000.
Canavan says he is also "worried other minor parties get the feeling she's just part of the furniture now in Australia and not as fringe as she once was".
Queensland's beaches: beautiful one day, perfect the next – if you own a car
Preferences may flow to Hanson from the likes of Bernard Gaynor's Australian Liberty Alliance. However, the ALA issued a terse press release on Thursday to brand Hanson' s idea of a royal commission "a waste of time and money".
"Any such royal commission will not be able to change the nature of Islam and it will only find the obvious: Islam is both a religion and a political ideology," it said.
Bartlett says there are a clutch of other minor parties "that are more determinedly hate-filled than [Hanson] this time".
But they are the kind of minor party deals that, without many boots on the ground giving out how-to-vote cards, the new voting rules could leave floundering.
Ominously, Hanson, running in the Queensland election last year, came within 114 votes (0.4%) of snatching the seat of Lockyer from the LNP.
That was with a lower than usual profile in a state campaign that drew national interest, just not in her direction.
Plenty are looking now.

INSPIRATION & SPIRITUALITY
The Bright Side: feel-good news from December
SCIENCE & PSYCHOLOGY
There were plenty of feel-good health and environmental stories in December, but you may have missed them given all the negative news currently in the press. Ed Gould rounds up his Top Ten positive news stories from the past month to uplift and inspire.
December is the traditional time for family get-togethers and merriment. Although the final month of 2020 may have been somewhat different from usual, there were many good news stories that were full of happiness, positivity and the human spirit. Read on to discover more about some of the best ones.
1. Plastic additive makes packaging biodegradable
A British firm has announced that it has developed an additive that can go into new plastic products that will render them biodegradable. Polymateria has come up with a way that could end the crisis the world faces in plastics that take hundreds of years to break up. Both flexible and rigid forms of plastic can be made using the additive which, it is hoped, will do no environmental damage once disposed of.
2. Food waste targeted by tech giant
With so many people around the world suffering from hunger but with global food production at an all time high, there is an undoubted problem with waste. According to some estimates, as much as a third of all groceries are thrown away by people in wealthier countries.
It was reported in December that Google plans to do something about the issue by getting involved in Project Delta in the United States. The tech giant will bring its algorithmic prowess to bear in an effort to get food where it's needed when it's needed so that Americans end up throwing away less of the food they buy. At the moment, the project is focussed on commercial kitchens but it could also be advanced to help ordinary retailers and consumers.
3. Polar bears saved by court ruling
A controversial offshore oil drilling project in the Arctic region has been stopped by a US federal court, according to EuroNews. The decision will safeguard the habitat and ranges of polar bears in the area, in a move that has been warmly welcomed by campaign groups. The court ruling said that the National Environmental Policy Act had not been sufficiently taken into account by the current administration when it said the offshore project could proceed. Polar bears tend to be disturbed by the noise such drilling inevitably creates.

4. Stranded truckers assisted by compassionate groups
When lorry drivers were stuck in Kent, UK, unable to take cross-channel ferries to France, they were left stranded without access to basic services. However, according to local news sources, their plight was not overlooked by the local Sikh community who rallied around to deliver hot food to them. Under police supervision, the Gravesend Gurdwara delivered hundreds of free meals to the incapacitated truckers while they waited for the port to reopen. The group was assisted by Khalsa Aid, a Sikh charitable foundation. In addition, Ramsgate Football Club showed a similar level of compassion to the drivers by delivering hundreds of pizzas free of charge.
5. Mental ageing can be reversed, study suggests
According to a new paper published by UC San Francisco scientists, the age-related cognitive decline that is noted in many older people need not be permanent. Indeed, SciTech Daily reported that the group had come up with a drug therapy that would mean such brain decline could be reversed. The scientists' work has focussed on a drug called ISRIB which, it was found, could restore memory function among a raft of other cognitive abilities. What's even more positive is that the drug tends to provide rapid results where brain degradation had previously been thought to be permanent.

6. New Zealand's vaccine response includes its neighbours
A report in The London Economic claimed that New Zealand had purchased enough of the anti-coronavirus vaccines to treat all of its population – as well as those of its neighbouring Pacific islands. New Zealand has a population of 5.5 million but it has bought more vaccine doses than it needs for its own citizens. This means that the Oxford University/AstraZeneca and Novavax jabs will now be issued to island states such as Tokelau, Niue, Samoa and Tuvalu. It's also thought that Tonga and the Cook Islands will benefit from the generosity of the New Zealand government. According to the country's foreign minister, the move will allow these smaller nations faster access to the vaccines as well as making the entire region safer for ordinary New Zealanders.
7. New hope for Florida's coral reefs
According to the Miami Herald, the introduction of the Caribbean king crab into its coral reefs is starting to preserve them. By reducing algae growth, the corals have become healthier. The crabs have been nicknamed as reef goats because of their ability to eat everything that is unwanted and develop healthy growth. Once grown for human consumption, these crabs will now play a big part in maintaining marine biodiversity in the area.

8. Electronic devices must be tagged as repairable
In a landmark move, the French government has voted for a law that will make all electronic goods manufacturers tag their products with how repairable – or otherwise – they are. The idea is that when people buy devices, they will know which ones will be repairable if something goes wrong down the line and which ones won't. In turn, it's hoped this law will encourage manufacturers to make their products longer lasting, thereby cutting down on waste and the need to constantly upgrade with newer versions of the same product. According to Times Now, it's expected that several other European Union countries will follow France's lead and introduce similar legislation.
9. Mindfulness reduces burnout among healthcare staff
There can be little doubt that 2020 has been a tough year for everyone in the healthcare sector. Stress and burnout among some health professionals has been part of the problem in several countries. However, according to a report in Becker's Hospital Review, mindfulness has been deployed successfully in many healthcare settings to help caregivers. Researchers in the United States found that practising mindfulness techniques reduced burnout rates and increased engagement at work among a range of healthcare workers.

10. Pygmy possum found alive and well in Australia
Because of the bushfires that have engulfed Australia in recent years, it was feared that the tiny pygmy possum – the smallest species of possum – had been wiped out. Previously found in certain habitats in Tasmania and surrounding areas, the diminutive creature was thought to have become extinct by many naturalists. Indeed, The Guardian reported that almost 90 per cent of the creature's habitat had been lost to bushfires.However, a discovery on Kangaroo Island in December has raised new hopes that the species is doing better than previously thought and may make a comeback so long as it can be adequately protected. •

Impossible to pick one favourite, but I gotta say I loved the one about an additive to make plastic packaging biodegradable - I'm at an ongoing war with all the plastic packaging that somehow always appear in my house 😩 It also warmed my heart reading about the compassion and kindness shown the stranded truck drivers - it's so lovely to hear stories of how people join forces to help others out in any way 🙏

Caught in Thai uprising
PARENTS of a newlywed Shepley couple are facing an anxious wait today as they travel home from their honeymoon in Thailand.
Andrew and Emma Jaggar texted home this morning to tell their families not to worry after overnight news of a military coup in the capital Bangkok.
Dad Keith Jaggar, of Stretchgate, Shepley said: "We'll be relieved when they're home. We heard it overnight on the news and they texted us to say not to worry and they're both fine.
"My wife looked up details on the internet and there was fighting but nothing near where they are.
"They're due to leave their hotel in Hua Hin, which is three hours drive from the capital at lunchtime today which is 6pm their time and they'll be arriving at Manchester tomorrow morning.
"We're relieved it was all so peaceful but it only takes a small spark for something to kick off.
"We'll all be glad to see them home."
Insurance broker Andrew, 25 and Huddersfield Royal Infirmary theatre nurse Emma, 29 married at Emmanuel Church, Shelley on September 2 and have spent a two week honeymoon in Thailand.
They have riden elephants through the jungle and visited the famous River Kwai during the holiday of a lifetime.
Meanwhile Mark and Joanne Robinson and their nine-year-old daughter Emily, who are from Oakes, have been living in Chiang Mai, 400 miles from Bangkok for the past nine months.
Mark, 37 is operations is operations director for a jewellery company and Joanne is on study leave from Kirklees Council.
Mark said: "We're not worried but of course it is on our minds all the time. Emily has been given the day off school today and all the banks and government offices are closed."
Joanne said: "There was little resistance to the coup in Bangkok as the Prime Minister was really resented there. The story here however is much different. But Chiang Mai is his home town and so everyone in the North loves him.
"Mark passed tanks on his way to work this morning and there are soldiers at every major junction.
"The military have cut of all acess to the otuside world for us including television, internet and overseas calls."

Coventry Lake (2)
The beauty of a sandy beach………
www.marionbell.com/coventry-lake-2
Coventry Lake is a popular vacation destination. Vacationers return each year to enjoy the ambiance of this older style city. The shops draw all kinds of busy shoppers. Aquiring a place to stay during vacation time is a feat in it's self.
Jack and Wayne had made there way to the Coventry Campground to warn the forest rangers about the figure they had encountered. They slowly made there way through the campgrounds to the ranger's station, located just on the fringe of the forest. Jack and Wayne were shaking as they entered the Ranger's Station. The ranger at the front desk smiled and asked what he could help them with. The ranger turned his eyes towards the faces of the two men that had just entered the office. Their faces were white pale, their eyes were wide, and you could see the concern and fear on their faces. They were shaking and stuttering with every word they forced from their lips. Jack and Wayne were in shock and they were making no sense at all. Ranger Devin Roberts gathered something was terribly wrong, so he called the chief of police John Milton to let him come talk to Jack and Wayne. Devin did his best to keep Jack and Wayne calm, but that seemed to be an impossible task. Wayne kept telling Devin that they had to leave, all of them. It was a puzzle that the police chief might have a better chance at figuring out. Devin had some coffee made for the fella's in the hopes they would settle down. Every time there was a bang, a knock on the door, or even the back fire of a car. Jack and Wayne would hide under the desk or in a secluded corner of the room. This was strange behavior for two grown men to exhibit. There was definitely something wrong, and it was bad enough to affect the men. The police chief finally arrived and began to question Jack and Wayne. In between the mumbles and the hysteria John got the gist of the problem. "Devin.. It would seem that by the stories I have just been told… It would seem we either have a costumed forest person, or some kind of creature in the forest." John explained.
Man in costume…..
Back at the beach the sun was beginning to set, as Yolanda and Phillip snuggled together to watch the sun go down. The young couple who had been making out on the beach had now moved into the bushes, for more privacy. The evening was fairly quiet, except for the odd moan from the young couple. Phillip was getting a little frisky as he listened to the moaning in the bushes. Yolanda knew how all those sounds would effect her Phillip and suggested that they return home before long. Phillip wanted to see the sun go down first and snuggled Yolanda a little closer. The quiet was broken by a curious sound. It was like someone was tossing the garbage cans from their stands along the beach. Phillip stood to take a look in the direction the noise came from but, he saw nothing. He figured it maybe a bear rummaging through the garbage for food. Yolanda pinched her nose with her fingers, and said. "How could you do that Phillip without warning me?" Phillip looked at her. "It wasn't me.. I didn't make that stink." He said. There was a heavy stench in the air, and it was making Yolanda's stomach turn. Phillip grabbed Yolanda's hand and began to walk away from the smell that lingered through the beach area. "It maybe someones sewer backing up." He said to Yolanda, as they kept walking. A blood curdling scream was coming from the bushes where the young couple had gone to hide. The scream lasted for only a moment or two, then it stopped. Phillip started to make his way over to see if anyone had been hurt. Yolanda was hot on his heels, as they ran.
Running to help…..
John and Devin were trying to get the fellas, to show them where this person was and they out-rightly refused. Could you at least take us to where the road was that you came out of the forest on. Jack and Wayne agreed to show the ranger and police chief where the road was. John had everyone climb into the cruiser, and they started off in the direction of the sighting. Once they had reached the road into the forest, John asked if this was the place as he turned into the forest. As Devin turned to talk to Jack and Wayne his heart quickened. Both of the fellas where white as ghosts, and looked very sickly. "John…..Look" Devin said, as John looked through the rear view mirror. Jack and Wayne looked very ill, and John had to get them to the hospital and quick. The fear of seeing whatever it was had sent both of the men into total shock. The doctors at the hospital said. "Wayne kept mumbling… get them out." He continued to say that Wayne and Jack had been sedated and were being watched closely. John and Devin had come to the belief, that this sighting was a prank being pulled on Jack and Wayne, as they worked in the forest. They had nothing else to go on, and there were no reports of anyone missing, or being killed in the area. Pranks like that have happened in the past, by co-workers, or high school kids. Not even Donavon Mitchel, had been reported missing. That was the first person who disappeared in the forest of Coventry City. The next day John stopped by the hospital to check on Wayne and Jack. They had a really bad night with bad dreams of something they had seen. They had woke up screaming, shaking and being violent to the point that they needed to be restrained. John had figured that they may have bought drugs off the streets, that may have been laced with another narcotic. Whatever it was it really did them wrong.
Person in restraints……..
Phillip was the first to go into the bushes, and Yolanda right behind him. They made their way into the bushes, to find a young man laying on the ground unconscious. There was no sign of the girl, and not a trace of blood anywhere. Phillip bent down to check and see if the young man was a live. His pulse was shallow but still there. Phillip touched his hand and the young man bolted up from the ground and called out for his girl friend. "Melissa" He repeatedly said. He looked franticly for her, but she was no where to be found. Phillip asked him what had happened, and Tanner (the young man) said something came out from behind the bushes and grabbed Melissa, and dragged her away. I tried to fight, but it hit me with the power of a horses kick and I passed out. "What did you see?" Yolanda asked. "I'm not sure…It was very large and smelled very bad. Phillip tried to find any drag marks on the ground, but there was nothing. No trace of the young lady Melissa. She had vanished.
Being dragged away……
Join me tomorrow as we follow, the search for Melissa. Did she run away? Or was she taken against her will?
Hello everyone: I trust your day was pretty good for a Monday. It was really cold here today, and if that wasn't enough snow fell again. There was no significant accumulation, but the fact it fell was enough of a shock for us people in Canada. Today is the day I have to drop my poor puppy off at the vet to be fixed. I feel bad already for her and I know I will worry about her till I pick her up later in the day. I must be going and wish you all a very wonderful Tuesday. It's the last day of April 2019 and we will be moving into a new month on Wednesday. Take care, keep those you love safe, and becareful out there…… See you later…. 🙂 🙂
I wish to thank all my followers, readers, and visitors for stopping by to read my stories…. 🙂 🙂
MAGS. Thanks for being here…. 🙂

The burned-in subtitles on the Passion cut is a bit of a bummer. I have to assume Criterion scanned that 35mm print which has been doing the rounds for the past decade or so that had the subtitles burned-in. The image on both versions is pretty much what I expected. I'm happy the Passion cut is in 1080p!

This is what I figured, similar to what was discussed re: My Darling Clementine and what I found with Swing Shift. The restoration of the theatrical cut looks so good, the disparity in quality with the earlier cut is even more pronounced, though in this case it doesn't feel like a tragedy since Tarkovsky made his preference for the three-hour cut pretty clear. Personally, I would've preferred having the restored footage from the theatrical cut spliced into the longer cut wherever they overlapped - it's not something I'd find jarring (the jumps in quality in Swing Shift were a lot greater and yet it didn't feel too jarring there), but I understand that most people may not feel the same way.

Don't the two edits use different takes in some cases?
knives wrote: ↑
Yes, which is why it's not as simple as splicing in footage from the final cut. Also, the Beaver review notes that the soundtrack is different for both editions as well.
I'm assuming that since the Passion cut has burned-in subtitles, the print used was at least one generation down from the source used on the original Criterion DVD (which did not have burned-in subtitles)? Perhaps that original source was duped a few times as well, so we won't know for sure unless the liner notes specify the source. Certainly, current scanning standards and the HD presentation wipes out any concern over generation loss between the old Criterion and the new, but I'm curious about what options Criterion had to work with.
Roger Ryan wrote: ↑
I know, but this was the case for Swing Shift as well, so you would have to go scene by scene and figure out which takes are the same. Even then, you'll probably have the same take used, but a few seconds (maybe even less than a second) of additional or missing footage on the tail or head, so you'd have to edit accordingly. It's not as hard as you'd think (upgrading the footage on the director's cut of Swing Shift would take one less than a weekend, maybe even a long day, if done in one sitting) and different takes would probably be seen in only a handful of scenes, so it would be very doable and indeed for me vastly preferable over sitting through 200+ minutes of somewhat blurry footage.
As for the soundtrack, that's easy - don't change it. You'd actually want to retain the soundtrack on the long cut to act as your guide when splicing in the restored footage.
I can't stress how simple this would be if it were an editing gig because you're not sifting through a mountain of footage or making as many choices as would if you were editing a film from scratch. This is especially true with digital tools - any work you'd be doing would be around the actual splices in the cut, and anything else would be shuttling or skipping through the length of any given shot until you get to the next splice. So it's not the length of the film so much as the number of cuts that have the bigger impact of how long this would take. Trust me, I tried this myself.
Have you ever edited before because that's still a hell of a lot of work. Just in terms of soundtrack syncing that would take an incredible number of hours.
#438 Post by swo17 » Wed Aug 15, 2018 5:51 pm
It would also be a little weird to have parts of the film with burnt-in subtitles and the rest not. I'm okay with the presentation looking consistent throughout, especially since it will still be a substantial improvement over the original DVD.
Subtitles would be an extra step - would have to lay them in on the restored footage and I guess leave them in on the burnt-in footage, so that may be a bit awkward but it wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me.
Um, YES. For some it could be an incredible number of hours, but others, it would not, not by a long shot. I'm not one of the slow ones.
Also, soundtrack syncing in this case? You're working off a film that has already been cut. As mentioned, you KEEP the soundtrack for the long cut, we're only changing picture. Then if the picture takes don't match, you move on. If the takes do match, it's no trick getting the new picture to sync with the sound of the long cut because you already have a VISUAL cue that you can easily match to (which is the picture you're replacing), and maybe even a splice to match to. Set the ins at the right spot (which will be quick if you're good), have the snap feature on, drop the new footage in and boom you're done.

I've also reassembled alternative cuts for Blu-ray releases (in fact, I do this quite a bit for Indicator these days, as they're very keen on including multiple cuts), and it really doesn't take that long if you have all the necessary materials and know what you're doing. As hearthesilence says, soundtrack syncing is actually one of the easier tasks.
The tricky bit comes when your source materials are clearly wildly disparate in quality. The Stranglers of Bombay, for which I created two alternative cuts (the British theatrical release and an "integral" cut combining all footage found in the British and American theatrical cuts, which conveniently were cut by different censorship authorities with differing views about what was appropriate), worked out very well because although I had to use an original 1959 archival print of the British release version for all the footage that wasn't in Sony's HD master, we were able to scan, clean up and regrade the necessary footage in such a way that it more or less matched the Sony materials, to the point where it's not immediately obvious by eye that some footage is unavoidably down at least two generations. But for Blind Terror (the UK cut of See No Evil), I had no alternative but to use a standard definition video source for the unique footage - although fortunately there wasn't that much of it, so it was never too distracting (and if it was, we included an all-HD See No Evil).
But with something like the Rublev situation, I think I might have baulked at attempting a combined reconstruction, because I can't see how it would be anything other than significantly distracting for a fair amount of the running time.
Yes, thank you Michael. And that's the one point I will concede on - the PQ will be noticeably different, but how distracting that will be depends on the viewer. I imagine for a lot of people that would be the case, but when I viewed my upgrade of Swing Shift (which switched from an excellent HD transfer of presumably the OCN to a poor VHS dub of the director's cut), it didn't bother me at all and I never found myself getting taken out of the film as a viewer. If I had to explain why, I'd say it's because the VHS dub is so poor that after a while, it's too much of strain to watch it. It's just too hard to make out the details, whereas you kind of relax with the HD material because everything's very clear and easy to make out. So even though there's a distinct change, it's for the better - you're not straining for two hours straight to make out all the material.

To be clear I was only referring to Rublev and not all such attempts and my syncing comment was due to it being a comparatively easier task to some other choices when it comes to something like this. As far as I can tell your examples don't quite match up for the reason I'm eyeing this claim suspiciously as those edits were just that, variant edits. This on the other hand is more like two different films ala Rivette's stuff insofar as they are born out of different soundtracks and takes.
Swing Shift had alternate takes and the soundtrack had changes even when the same picture take was used.
I'm not saying this is impossible, just that its commercial attractiveness would not be good to Criterion because of the effort needed to produce it well.
Of course, once the title is released, anyone is welcome to create their own "reconstruction" to suite their tastes. I've only seen the initial Passion cut of Rublev (all the way through - multiple times) and do not have a significant problem with the picture quality...of the 35mm print I've seen, that is. This Blu-ray looks like it pretty much replicates the look at that 35mm print, so it definitely won't be like watching a fuzzy VHS for three hours. I once pondered the idea of a version that combines (what I believe to be) the improved editing/take choice found in Tarkovsky's final cut with the material that was removed outright from the Passion cut, but now I think having the two versions as separate experiences is the way to go.

Doing this commercially is an ethical minefield. We did it with The Stranglers of Bombay because we felt that there was enough evidence to back up our theory that the version that Terence Fisher originally signed off on back in 1959 was closer to our "integral" cut than either of the censored theatrical versions (there's no obvious reason why it wouldn't have been), and the footage didn't need a substantial rethink - I merely reinserted the unique footage from the British theatrical cut into the appropriate places in the Sony master. The only judgement call I had to make was regarding the positioning of the opening scene-setting title crawl, which was right at the start of the US version and after the opening credits of the UK version - but I reckoned that the UK version was most likely truer to Fisher's intentions, since there was a dissolve printed in which wasn't the case with the US version, and 1950s British audiences wouldn't have needed historical spoonfeeding right from the start, as they'd have been more familiar with the history of the British in India than a typical US audience.
However, while Powerhouse let me go ahead and reconstruct co-screenwriter Jimmy Sangster's original ending for The Snorkel after I realised that the final film contained all the necessary footage (it was a case of cutting stuff out rather than adding anything), they baulked at offering the option to play the entire film with that ending, because it had never been screened like that, and while Sangster never knew who vetoed his ending, he thinks that it could easily have been an internal decision at Hammer. And in any case, while my version matches Sangster's script, I have no way of knowing if it would have been edited or scored like that had it been filmed - in particular, I suspect composer Francis Chagrin would have reintroduced his pervasive main four-note motif right at the very end, which I couldn't do in my version as I only had the final recording to work from. So we presented it as a curiosity, but made it very clear that it wasn't any kind of "official" alternative cut.
And with Rublev, it's a far more complex situation because while some of the changes were imposed on Tarkovsky, it's also a fact that he substantially re-edited much of the rest of the footage (very much for the better, in my opinion, although that's coloured by the fact that I've seen the shorter version many times in 35mm and the longer one only on non-anamorphic NTSC DVD). So we have no idea what an "ideal" version would look like, because we don't know which shots Tarkovsky voluntarily deleted and which shots he was asked to remove.
Another thing to consider, Criterion may have been contractually forbidden from altering the Andrei Rublev master.

Regarding the burnt-in subtitles on the 205-minute cut, wasn't the budget blown out on the original laserdisc release (which was only of that cut) creating an entirely new subtitle translation, touted as being far more complete than any other? It was those subs that then appeared on the DVD ported from the LD master. It's funny that the new release, while upgrading the picture quality, has lost these subtitles. You can get a sense of the difference from the first DVD Beaver screengrab - there are two speakers subtitled in the 205-minute DVD while all the others only subtitle one speaker.

Although it appears that the first Criterion DVD screengrab is taken from a different part of the shot than all of the other screengrabs resulting in different dialogue altogether.

Syracuse University Parking and Transit Services has been tracking a positive campus trend: increased use of more sustainable transportation modes such as the Centro bus service and Zipcar program. Choosing these and other eco-friendly modes of transportation–such as carpooling, ridesharing, biking or walking–is helping University community members save money on vehicle fuel and maintenance costs, as well as lessening the burden on campus traffic and parking. Plus, the reduced carbon dioxide emissions helps SU achieve its Climate Action Plan goal of being carbon neutral by 2040.
The number of SU Centro bus passengers has risen, pushing the number of riders over the two million mark last year. Total fiscal year 2009 ridership–including all SU campus, free-fare zone, Carousel and Quad shuttle routes–increased to more than 2.1 million, or by more than 8.4 percent, over fiscal year 2008.
SU students, faculty and staff can ride the on-campus Centro shuttle buses for free. An extensive system of Centro routes, including specific free-fare zones and other routes that do charge a fee, can also take riders to many off-campus destinations.
Another positive sustainable transportation trend is the recent addition of three new Zipcars, bringing SU's fleet up to a total of five. This has expanded Zipcar access and convenience for the 300 students and 26 staff and faculty members currently registered to use the popular program. According to Zipcar, each SU car is in use 65 percent of the time, or 15.6 hours per day, including weekends and overnight.
SU graduate Alejandro Fernandez-Lovo '09 knows all about the convenience and cost savings students can reap by using Zipcar instead of maintaining a vehicle at school. After leading the effort to bring the Zipcar program to SU as the Student Association's director of off-campus student affairs, Fernandez-Lovo became a regular Zipcar user.
Students, faculty and staff can join Zipcar for $35 a year and will gain access to SU's Zipcars for $9 per hour, or $65 per day, with gas, insurance and 180 free miles, parking in the reserved spot and 24/7 roadside assistance included. Additionally, the $35 annual membership fee is credited toward hourly or daily use of the vehicle. Full details are available at SU's Zipcar site http://zipcar.com/su.
Blue Honda Civic and Gray Toyota Matrix: located in the Q3/Arch lot near Carnegie Library and Archbold Gym.
Red Honda Civic: located in the Waverly lot on the corner of Waverly Avenue and South Crouse Avenue.
Gray Honda Insight (hybrid vehicle): located at 180 Small Road on South Campus.
Silver Honda Insight (hybrid vehicle): located at 200 Slocum Heights Drive on South Campus.
Although campus sustainability has arguably been boosted thanks to growth in SU's Centro bus ridership and the expanded Zipcar program, there's still more that can be done. Those who commute to campus alone in their own vehicle may want to consider switching to a more sustainable ride. A good place to start is to look at what commuting costs in terms of gas, maintenance, time and carbon dioxide emitted. Using the SU Sustainability Division's commuting cost calculator can provide this information.
SU Ride Share program–allows University community members to register with Parking and Transit Services and match themselves with people from the same area to share the driving responsibilities.
More information on all of these sustainable transportation programs is available at the Parking and Transit Services website.

London Road stabbing: Barber shop attack has echoes of two city murders
Andrew Gosden arrests: Two quizzed on suspicion of kidnap, human trafficking and child pornography
Hammer-wielding Sheffield thug left ex-partner lying in pool of blood for hours
A hammer-wielding drug-fuelled thug has been jailed for life after he attempted to murder his ex-partner by smashing her around the head.
By Jon Cooper
Monday, 18th October 2021, 5:13 pm
Sheffield Crown Court heard on October 15 how Mebub Islam, aged 27, of Egerton Walk, Broomhall, Sheffield, was found guilty after a previously heard trial of attempting to murder his ex-partner and falsely imprisoning her at her home on November 1, 2020.
Islam had already been convicted of two offences of battery against the complainant, according to Judge Simon Phillips QC, when he visited her home and following a dispute he attacked her with a claw-hammer after he had taken cocaine and ecstasy.
Judge Phillips told Islam: "You followed her into a bedroom and struck a series of blows at, or above, her head at the hairline."
Pictured is Mebub Islam, aged 27, of of Egerton Walk, Broomhall, Sheffield, who has been sentenced to life imprisonment after he was found guilty of attempting to murder his ex-partner and falsely imprisoning her and after he also admitted breaching a restraining order and a suspended prison sentence.
He added: "Not only did you intend to kill her at the time of the attack but for several months you had been planning to kill her. You were angry that she had admitted cutting up your clothes at your treatment of her several months before."
Islam's estranged wife was lying on a bed in a pool of blood for at least five hours, according to Judge Phillips, and the defendant made her renew her faith in the expectation she would die.
Judge Phillips said Islam called a friend to collect their young child from the flat and he threatened to stab his ex-partner with a flick knife if she screamed for help.
The court heard Islam arranged for the complainant to be taken to hospital by an associate and he asked them to make sure he was not implicated as he began planning to conceal himself in a hotel and leave the country.
Islam's ex-partner was taken to Sheffield's Royal Hallamshire Hospital and had to be transferred to Sheffield's Northern General Hospital for specialist treatment and surgery.
Mark McKone, defending, said Islam has relatively few convictions and references have been forwarded to the court which show a good side to the defendant.
But Judge Phillips said there were a number of aggravating features to the case including Islam preventing emergency assistance, ordering more drugs after the attack, and the fact he washed the hammer afterwards and threatened to kill the complainant if she told anyone what had happened.
Islam's ex-partner had previously complained to the police about his alleged violent and controlling behaviour, according to Judge Phillips, but she had withdrawn her complaints because at those times she feared it would make matters worse.
The defendant, who has 10 previous convictions for 15 offences, was found guilty after a trial in July of attempted murder and false imprisonment.
Islam admitted breaching a restraining order relating a suspended prison sentence which had been imposed in April, 2020, for two offences of battery aganst the same complainant. He was also found to be in breach of the suspended sentence.
Judge Phillips told Islam: "You were consumed with anger and malice towards her and had pre-planned to kill her."
He sentenced Islam to life imprisonment and said he must serve a minimum of 16 years and 145 days before he can be considered for release, allowing for time he has already served remanded in custody.

Claire Sulmers is a writer, editor and founder of the blog The Fashion Bomb, a daily destination for the multicultural fashionista.
From celebrity style to fashion news, trend reports to street style, the blog delivers to over 2.4 million visitors monthly fresh, engaging content from an informed point of view.
Where is your escape destination this summer and why?
I'm all about exploring and going to far flung, gorgeous places. I love a great beach, so am thinking of treating myself with a trip to Bali or the Maldives at the end of the summer.
What is your must travel luggage of choice?
Travelpro! I once purchased a very expensive, hard, leopard printed roller bag that broke at every stop. I was complaining one day on an airport shuttle, and a flight attendant recommended TravelPro. I bought one large bag and one carry on from Overstock.com for little as nothing, and they hold up well, are light, and durable!
What is your must carry-on essentials?
My laptop, lip gloss, and sunglasses.
What is the perfect en-route travel outfit?
I wear heels all the time, but I'm all about Chuck Taylors when traveling. You need comfortable footwear! Aside from that, it's usually jeans, a tee, and a cool jacket.
Style….Travel must haves for your destination?
Easy cotton jersey separates are both comfortable and chic. I love tees and skirts by Helmut Lang.
A pair of fashionable flats (my favorite are by Chanel) and a pair of leg elongating sandals. I love mules by Giuseppe Zanotti.
Accessories are a game changer…. what can't you leave home without?
I love piling on loads of gold bracelets. I wear them with bathing suits, dresses, everything! I get them from Topshop or Target so I don't have to worry too much about preserving them. And sunglasses!!! I don't like to wear a lot of makeup when traveling. A pair of sunglasses plus a bold lip equal instant glamour.
Dr. Bronner's Mint body soap. It's always a refreshing choice! And Neutrogena face and beauty wipes are great for the airplane, and to thoroughly clean your face on the go.
The 21 Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell and The Magic Path of Intuition by Florence Scovel Shinn.
Roll and fold. Don't overpack; it's never worth the overweight luggage fees. Bring pieces that can mix and match. Bring your steamer so you always look effortless when you step out. And don't be afraid to shine.
What is your ultimate hostess gift?
A Jo Malone candle, Starbucks card, and a blessing.
Any new projects that you would like to share?
I'm expanding Fashion Bomb Daily into a lifestyle site incorporating more beauty and health. After finding an investor, I hope to launch a bi-annual magazine, products, and e-commerce.


"Our wedding day was a dream come true! We had spent a lot of time finding the right amount of romantic details, and when the big day came everything went off without a hitch! As the bride, there were so many amazing moments throughout the day. Before all the girls and I started getting ready, we were able to watch the sun come up and enjoy coffee overlooking the exact spot Kevin and I would say our vows. It was so calming to have a moment of peace before the day went into fast forward. At this time, I was also able to write my love letter for Kevin to read, prior to our first look. I had a kept a journal throughout our engagement called "Reasons I Want to Marry You", and before I could have it taken to Kevin, along with him groom's gift, I wrote my last journal entry of my emotions and thoughts just moments before we became husband and wife. Having these moments to myself to take it all in was definitely a highlight of my day.
As a groom, the most memorable part of my day is the moment I get to see my best friend and future wife for the first time. The first time I saw her in her wedding dress I knew I was marrying the most beautiful women in the world. Even if you don't do a first look, there's no moment more memorable than that moment you see your wife for the first time on your wedding day. The rest of the day may be a rush, but in that moment time seemed to stand still.

Ethyl Corp. v. United Steelworkers of America, etc.
United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
May 28, 1985 ; July 22, 1985
[*182] POSNER, Circuit Judge.
The steelworkers union appeals from a judgment setting aside a labor arbitrator's award. The appeal requires us once again to consider the scope of judicial review of labor arbitration awards.
In 1980 the union signed a collective bargaining contract with Ethyl Corporation to govern employment at a chemical plant in Indiana. The contract contained a provision that an employee with one or more years' service who had worked 1,040 hours during a calendar year and was "on the payroll of the Company on December 31" of that year would have a "vested right" to a paid vacation the following year. A worker who was "terminated for any reason" before December 31 and was later "reemployed" would become entitled to a full paid vacation upon working [**2] 200 hours in the year in which he was reemployed.
On October 15, 1981, the company announced that it would close the plant, which had 33 workers, in mid-November. The company discharged eleven of the workers on October 18, ten in November, and eight on December 4, which was when the plant actually closed; the other four workers had not been working on October 15, because of disability. Although all 33 workers had worked more than 1,040 hours in 1981, the company refused to give vacation pay to 33 of them -- the 29 active [*183] workers plus a disabled worker whose disability ended on December 22. Only the three who were still disabled on December 31 got vacation pay.
The union filed a grievance on behalf of the 30, asserting that everyone who had been on the payroll when the shutdown was announced on October 15, 1981, was entitled to vacation pay for 1982. Pursuant to the collective bargaining agreement, the dispute was referred to an arbitrator, who on December 22, 1982, issued an award that stated, "The grievance is hereby sustained." In an accompanying opinion the arbitrator explained that although the workers would have had no right to vacation pay in 1982 if they had [**3] been laid off before December 31, 1981, because none of them worked 200 hours in 1982 (they worked no hours that year -- the plant was closed), the parties had not intended the provision for layoffs to apply to a plant closing. Having (by closing the plant) made it impossible for the workers to earn a paid vacation for 1981 by working 200 hours in 1982, the company could not use the requirement that workers be on the payroll on December 31 to deny them vacation pay. Therefore, "employees who were actively working at the time of the plant closing on December 4, 1981, are entitled to vacation pay for 1982."
