LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa. - Jan. 12, 2015 - PRLog -- Currently ranked 11th in the 2015 Indoor Archery World Cup Series, Laura Bennett Shelton of Bethlehem, PA will compete in the third stage of the Indoor Archery World Cup in Nimes, France January 23rd -25th. The Indoor Archery World Cup is an open-entry international indoor archery competition circuit with stages held all around the world. Mrs. Shelton—who took up the sport just 17 months ago--placed 8th in Stage 1 (Marrakesh/November 2014) and 17th in Stage 2 (Bangkok/December 2014). The 4th Stage and World Cup Final will be held February 6th -7th in Las Vegas.
She also will be competing January 16th – 18th at The 12th Annual Lancaster Archery Classic, one of the country's most highly competitive tournaments.
Just six months after picking up a bow for the first time in late 2013, Mrs. Shelton competed as a member of the U.S. Indoor Archery Team at the World Archery Championship in Nimes, placing 40th in her first Championship. In October 2014, also as a member of the US Team, she brought home the gold medal in the Recurve Bow Master Women's' Class at the Pan-American Championship.
Laura credits success to her mental game as much as her physical one. She trains a minimum of four hours each day and travels to Florham Park, New Jersey weekly to the New Jersey School of Archery to work with Level 4 Olympic coach Mike Usherenko. Equally, she works with Sports Psychologist Dr. Jarrod Spencer of Bethlehem, PA. "What Laura has achieved in a short time is remarkable." according to Usherenko, the 2013 Archery Coach of the Year. "Laura is a quick study, fierce competitor and ably adapting to the subtleties of the sport; we expect great things from her in 2015." Dr. Jarrod Spencer adds, "Laura's dedication and diligence to develop her mind [through working the Mind of the Athlete sports psychology curriculum] has been outstanding; I am so happy to see—and it's no surprise—that her efforts are paying off in the World Indoor Archery Cup."
Mrs. Shelton—sportswoman, architect, designer and mother--holds two degrees in architecture. She received her undergraduate training at the University of Houston, and earned a graduate degree from Columbia University. As a Project Runway TV finalist in 2006, she gained a reputation for designing glamorous but conservative evening wear. Her designs were licensed and sold by QVC. She is author of two books, Didn't I Feed You Yesterday?: A Mother's Guide to Sanity in Stilettos and Handmade Chic: Fashionable Projects That Look High-End, Not Homespun.
Laura Bennett Shelton lives in Bethlehem, PA. She has six children with her late husband Peter L Shelton. http://www.facebook.com/laurasheltonarcher

Ayushmann Khurrana's Article 15 Is One Brahmin Hero Away From Being A Great Film
Anubhav Sinha's film addresses a societal crisis but ends up reinforcing many of the same ideas it seeks to challenge.
By Ankur Pathak
Zee Studios
"The White Savior Industrial Complex is not about justice," Teju Cole, a Nigerian-American writer and art historian once noted. "It is about having a big emotional experience that validates privilege."
In Anubhav Sinha's Article 15, a foreign-travelled Brahmin policeman played by Ayushmann Khurrana, is plucked from Delhi and parachuted into a nondescript hamlet in Uttar Pradesh, a posting he describes as a "punishment."
Soon after his arrival, Khurrana's character Ayan Ranjan's liberal views on caste —of which he has only a cursory understanding — suddenly find tangible manifestation in a violent crime in which two Dalit girls are gangraped and murdered.
In the course of the film, Ranjan dives deep into the swamp of North India's caste terrorism, wards off pressure from Ministers and central agencies, shakes the apathy of his colleagues and subordinates, confronts his own blindspots, strengthens his relationship with his girlfriend, and comes out having completed the arc of The Hero's Journey—a quintessential cinematic template.
By the time Ranjan rescues a missing Dalit woman and carries her in his strong, Brahmin arms, the audience is primed for director Anubhav Sinha's camera as it lionises the conscientious cop for, well, doing his job at great personal risks.
In a nutshell, Article 15 seeks to address a societal crisis but ends up reinforcing many of the same ideas it seeks to challenge. The status quo remains mildly shaken but not bestirred: the Dalit must be both, brutalised by, and rescued by, the Brahmin.
'Article 15': Dalits Don't Need 'Upper Caste' Saviours
Jharkhand Lynching: 11 People Arrested In Connection With Tabrez Ansari's Killing
Accused Of Stealing, Muslim Man Made To Chant 'Jai Shri Ram' And Lynched
At a cultural moment when there's much political interest in, and conversation about, caste and marginalised communities, Article 15 captures dominant caste apathy and indifference, but also offsets it by showing Ranjan, an extension of the privileged cinegoer, as the emancipator.
The film may be sincere in its intent of mainstreaming conversations around discrimination, but raises complicated questions about the ownership of stories and who has the right to tell those stories.
There are no easy answers, but there are patterns that inform us about how lived experiences percolate into fictional accounts and embed them with nuance. The difference in directorial gaze is visible in the narrative devices adopted by Nagraj Manjule, a Dalit filmmaker, in his film Sairat, and its Hindi remake, Dhadak, directed by Shashank Khaitan, who is Bania caste. This difference is also visible in the energy in Neeraj Ghaywan's Masaan, a film that portrays marginalised communities with a sensitivity that can be traced to its maker's intimate familiarity with the subject.
Does this mean a non-Dalit filmmaker cannot tell stories of Dalit oppression, or straight people cannot write queer narratives? Yet again, there are no easy answers.
Art must dismantle boundaries and craft a shared language of empathy, but this notion is harder to uphold in Bollywood: an industry dominated by dominant caste men who ensure that marginalised voices remain marginalised, while mining the collective traumas of these same communities for scripts.
Bollywood isn't a level playing field where everyone is free to tell the stories of their choice, it is a select club of a few people who decide whose stories are worth telling. Platforming a story would be enough if the participation of the very people whose story is being told wasn't a concern. But it is and it is an unresolved concern. As Teju Cole writes, "There is the idea that those who are being helped ought to be consulted over the matters that concern them."
Khuranna's character in the film, Ayan Ranjan, in many ways, is Anubhav Sinha's alter ego. And Sinha makes sincere attempts to contain his saviour complex by writing the character as an ally whose socioeconomic privilege insulates him from the horrors of caste and who wants to do something about it.
But ultimately, Article 15 succumbs to the temptation to give Ranjan the big emotional experience that validates his privilege while the Dalit woman, Gaura — played by Sayani Gupta — folds her hands in reverence. All of a sudden, Ranjan is transformed from privileged ally to emancipator, and Gaura does something she hasn't done before in the film — she bows a little.
For someone rooting for the film to win, this negates everything. But from Sinha's lens of privilege, this is perhaps a logical progression to the story: the world is wronged, and righted, by savarna men, while everyone else exists in the shadow of their benevolence.
Which raises a difficult question: If a Dalit filmmaker told this story, would he choose the policeman, under whose hands the community faces systematic brutalization, as the deliverer of justice, as a sympathteic emancipator?
For all its flaws, Article 15 employs a self-critical gaze, especially in its treatment of the all-pervasiveness of casteist attitudes.
The police station Ranjan works at is dominated by upper-caste men, with a few exceptions. Sinha and his screenwriter Gaurav Solanki craft scenes that make it clear how insidiously and explicitly institutionalised oppression works. It's in the arrogant gait of Bhramadatt (Manoj Pahwa), a character who's nicer to dogs than he is to his Dalit colleague.
That colleague, on the other hand, is always aware of where he comes from, the confidence afforded by his uniform constantly at battle with self-persecution. Is he speaking too much, is his tone too rude, should he leave the room when the Brahmin cop speaks in English?
Sinha's critique of Brahminical supremacy is unsparing. He preempts some arguments about representation by addressing them within the film's universe.
In one of the most powerful scenes in the film, an underground Dalit leader Nishad, played by a phenomenal Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, gets into a discussion with his old friend, an upper-caste cop. Their argument reveals Article 15 as a film interested in the psychological exploration of the specifics of oppression, rather than the broad strokes of discrimination.
As Nishad sits on the floor, the cop towers above him, painfully aware of his own complicity in enabling the oppression he was trying to deny.
As the film winds to a close, and justice — or at least the illusion of justice — is restored, there's a scene where Khuranna stands tall and claps as his subordinates sit and give him adulatory glances.
As you leave the theatre, that's the moment that sticks. Who was he really clapping for?
"The white savior," Cole notes, "supports brutal policies in the morning, founds charities in the afternoon, and receives awards in the evening."

The job we here are Rail Tales refer to as 'the big job' began as a simple consultation in the spring of 2013. The client is a collector specializing in early postwar HO Marklin trains and early postwar pre-built structures, figures, and automobiles. He had already designed and constructed an impressive all-catenary operating track network with working signals and track controlled automatic operations. What he didn't have was a scenery plan and that's where we came in.
original board, right side
Original board, left side
After extensive discussions with the client and his wife, we came up with an overall scenery scheme that would create several distinct 'regions' on the layout: a mountain village, a main 'town', a village serving the mills, and an industrial area. The regions would be divided further into scenes. Although the details evolved over time, the original plan was carried out.
Work began in January of 2014 and Rail Tales portion of the program was completed in September of 2014. Some of the work was done off site but most was done on location. The client was actively involved in the entire construction process, providing logistical support while we were working on site and then doing a great deal of the detailing between site visits. Rail Tales did the terrain sculpting, road work, water, bridges, and most of the painting. We also built the soccer field and town park. Rail Tales instructed the client on ground foam and tree placement and other detail operations but the bulk of these time consuming tasks were undertaken by the client. Most notably, the client built the fences and vneyard arbors and installed all the lights.
This layout is built on a plywood platform. We normally work on foam instead but the old style Marklin equipment needs to be secured to a base and foam is not good for this so the plywood stayed. The deep canyon area was cut out and boxed by the client. In between all the tracks and underneath all the scenery on all flat areas is a base of 'grass mat' with a vinyl backing. This protects the plywood from moisture in the scenery making process. With layers of additional material on top, it is not actually visible anywhere but is an important step. The client did this very time consuming task a bit at a time.
Most of the structures were built in the 1950s. Some have been restored by Rail Tales but most were in good shape and only needed minor cleaning.
The client and his wife were also actively involved in the design process and in fact the design evolved almost continuously from the start of the project. The end result speaks for itself and is a strong endorsement for close involvement of the client(s) with the scenery building process.
View from the mountain chalet: each building on the mountain is linked to the road by a series of paths. The client' wife made this suggestion and it adds a nice detail.
Two mills and the stone mill race: the mill wheels are motorized. The fences along the road were scratch built by the client. The lake in the background is removable for access.
The soccer field: the turf is grass mat with airbrushed highlights and hand painted lines. Notice how the wooded ridge is used to separate this scene from the adjoining ones.
Alpine region: this portion was built using standard hardshell techniques. We built the rest and all subsequent work using Shaper Sheets by Woodland Scenics. Much faster and less messy.
The roundabout with fountain: the fountain is by Viessman and the acrylic columns vibrates to look like water. The bridges and railings are by Rix.
The center of town: the garden area was made removable as this area is not easily accessed. The lights in the town center had not been installed when this picture was taken.
Vineyard and windmill: the vineyard consists of 30 individual arbor structures built by the client from 6 Busch kits. The grapes were even painted to represent different varieties.
Mountain route and highway: these raised roads were made of Foam Core with Sculptamold over that for stability. We started out using drywall compound for roads but switched to Smooth-It by Woodland Scenics.
This layout has lots of tunnels and exposed rock faces: we do all rock faces with carved Sculptamold. It is sturdy and we can (with practice) sculpt faster than we can cast and fit plaster pieces.
The mountain village: the client cut individual platforms for each building so we could built level structure bases on sloped terrain. All the buildings have lights- good thing the mountain is hollow!
The main boulevard: We used a lot of Smooth-It here! The sidewalks are all hand made from sheet styrene. The planters were scratch built with plant details added by the client.
The industrial yard: the roads are all made from Vallejo textured paste over vinyl grass mat (with the grass removed). The rail crossings were made from styrene. The crane is operable.
The little mill and pond: the stone mill race was carved from Sculptamold. The water is made from products by Woodland Scenics and Vallejo. The bridge is scratch built.
The refinery: this was built in the 1950s as a factory display. Rail Tales cleaned and restored it. It can be removed for service. The client built a network of pipes connecting the hill top tanks to the refinery and from the refinery to the industrial area.

Random Thoughts on an Imperfect World
"The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made." ― Groucho Marx
Why Biden's Presidency May Be A Disappointment: A Pessimist's View
Previous post: The Problem With COVID International Comparisons
Next post: What is CRISPR-Cas9?
Posted 2 months ago by Son of Groucho
My Pessimistic Past
I've been a pessimist from an early age. I can remember making the decision to become one. It seemed to me that if you were a pessimist you could never be disappointed: if the worst happened, it would be just as you expected; if the worst didn't happen, it would be a pleasant (if rare) surprise! Now that I am, to coin a phrase, in my later years I find myself very fortunate in many ways, so it could be argued that my decades of pessimism were unjustified. Pessimism is, however, a very hard habit to break.
Reasons To Be Cheerful?
I can still remember my feeling of elation in 1997 when Tony Blair's Labour Party had its landslide victory over the Tories. Sadly, Blair proved a bit of a disappointment, and in the UK it currently feels as if we have always had a Tory Government. In the USA, I and many others have watched with horror the effects of 4 years of the odious Donald Trump. I had been aware of what an unpleasant creature he was long before he became President, but it was truly terrifying to see him in charge of the most powerful country on the planet! It will take many years to undo the damage that he has caused. Like numerous others around the World, I was extremely pleased when it was finally concluded that Joe Biden had defeated Trump. However, although I would have found another term of Trump almost unbearable, I didn't feel the same elation that I felt in 1997. This is not just because (a) I am not a US citizen, and (b) the Orange Monster has not actually conceded defeat yet!
Why The Republicans Are Not Beaten
The main reason for my lack of elation is the feeling that, though Trump is defeated (whether he acknowledges it, or not), the Republican Party is absolutely not. They have increased their numbers in the House of Representatives. Unless the Democrats win both the remaining Senate seats in Georgia, the Republicans will continue to have a majority in the Senate. Their control of the Supreme Court was recently, sadly, strengthened. All these factors will make pushing through progressive legislation by Biden very difficult, even if he didn't have the small matter of a poorly handled pandemic to deal with simultaneously!
I have detested the Republicans and the British Conservative Party since the time when Reagan and Thatcher started their neoliberal project. I have watched with horror over the years as GOP policies have moved further and further to the right. As Noam Chomsky has said "With the rightward drift, the Republican Party's dedication to wealth and privilege has become so extreme that its actual policies could not attract voters, so it has had to seek a new popular base, mobilized on other grounds: evangelical Christians who await the Second Coming, nativists who fear that "they" are taking our country away from us, unreconstructed racists, people with real grievances who gravely mistake their causes, and others like them who are easy prey to demagogues and can readily become a radical insurgency.". The continuing influence of the Republicans is not just bad news for America. As the USA is a major producer of greenhouse gases, the climate change-denying policies of the GOP have grave consequences for us all, even if we ignore their other abhorrent beliefs.
It would be nice to believe that Trump's Presidency was an aberration, but the fact is that over 73 million people voted for him in the recent election! It still seems certain that Trump is gone (or at least is in the process of going), but several commentators think that the Republicans will have learned a lot from his authoritarian approach that some have termed "Trumpism".
Zeynep Tufekci's Article
One of the most comprehensive of the articles about this is entitled "America's Next Authoritarian Will Be Much More Competent" by the Turkish writer Zeynep Tufekci. She compares Trump with the so-called populist leaders elsewhere, including Putin in Russia and Erdoğan in Turkey: two people with whom, it seems, Trump has been in regular contact. She notes that all of them have won at least two elections, though they successfully subvert democratic norms in various ways, a process Viktor Orbán in Hungary has termed "illiberal democracy". Although Trump has used some of their strategies, Tufekci argues he is politically much less talented than they are, and was elected because of a series of (from his point of view) fortunate circumstances. She lists a number of ways in which Trump has done a poor job as President, and suggests that the Republicans are actually "sanguine, if not happy, about Trump's loss". She mentions the strong position of the GOP, particularly in the Senate and the Supreme Court. Tufekci argues that the situation is perfect for a talented right-wing figure to run on Trumpism in 2024, and mentions a number of Republican Senators whom he thinks would be prime candidates. She finishes with some ideas on what can be done to avoid this, but is clear that the job will not be easy.
David Smith's Article
An article by David Smith entitled "Regardless of the US presidential election outcome, Trumpism lives on" again predicts continuation of the populist approach by the Republicans: it even suggests that Donald Trump Jr, or Trump himself, might be the candidate in 2024! It cites as evidence Trump's increased vote in Florida, Texas and other states. It also states "He found even more white working-class voters than last time and chipped away at Democratic support among Latinos. His cult-of-personality campaign rallies were as enthusiastic and rambunctious as ever.". It mentions how people like Mitch McConnell, the Senate majority leader, have been "rewarded, not punished, for normalising Trump and enforcing his will.". Obstruction of Biden's policies by McConnell, it argues, will lead to frustration, and he predicts that scaremongering about the possibility of Kamala Harris running for office will fire up Trump's base.
George Monbiot's Article
Possibly the most pessimistic of these articles is by the left wing writer George Monbiot and entitled "The US was lucky to get Trump—-Biden may pave the way for a more competent autocrat". Monbiot feels that Biden's assurances to a group of wealthy donors that "no one's standard of living will change, nothing would fundamentally change" strongly suggests that he is not going to grasp the nettle of wealth inequality, which Monbiot would argue is a major cause of America's ills. Monbiot feels that Trump's success in 2016 resulted partly from Obama's failure to confront the neoliberal agenda. He suspects Biden will be no more successful in this, partly because of the legislative challenges mentioned above. He describes Trump as "a useless wannabe dictator", but he too fears that the Republicans' next candidate may be much more formidable. As regards possible solutions, Monbiot says that we have to recognise the possibility that US politics may not be fixable. In a radical approach to the solution he states "I suspect it means a tub-thumping left populism, inveighing against billionaires, against big money in politics, against the stripping away of public protections, against white collar crime and in favour of the radical redistribution of both wealth and political power. It would reach past an obstructive Senate and supreme court to appeal directly to the people. It would build and sustain social movements that are bigger than the Democratic Party, using its activist base not just to win elections but also to drive home political change.". Sadly, he doesn't see Biden being capable of carrying this forward.
The Coronavirus Pandemic has had few beneficial effects, but Trump's chaotic handling of the disease in the United States was almost certainly a major reason why he was not re-elected. Fortunately, the surprisingly good preliminary results of the first two vaccines did not come in a few weeks sooner! People of a liberal persuasion in the US, and throughout the World, can breathe a sigh of relief that we don't have President Trump for the next 4 years. I just hope that Monbiot and others are wrong in speculating that Biden's Presidency will be "an interregnum between something terrible and something much worse."

I hope you are getting to relax a little on this Labor Day holiday. We have Graham with us today and are having fun with him.
I observed long ago that on holidays there are two types of Churches… The church that everyone comes to when they are visiting family; and the church that everyone leaves because they are going somewhere else to visit family.
FBC, Dearborn, MO is obviously the one everyone goes away from. Yesterday there were only 10 folks in attendance. However, we had a great time! Wonderful time of worship, prayer, study, and praise.
Saturday I was on my way home from a cousin's funeral and got a phone call telling me that my son-in-law's Dad, Gary Jones, was killed in a motorcycle accident in Springfield, MO. Apparently someone pulled out in front of him and caused the accident. Please pray for the family as decisions and memorial plans are made. Also, about a month ago Gary's brother died after suffering from a lingering illness. It has been a difficult time for their mother.
God bless & thanks in advance for your prayers.

Peterborough man's pendant containing ashes of deceased son stolen

TORONTO -- A Peterborough man is asking the public for help after a pendant which contained the ashes of his deceased son was stolen during an early morning vehicle break-in Wednesday.
Darren Fenn said the silver cross with a black face holds the ashes of his son Wyatt Darren Lamonday-Fenn who died in 2018.
"It was in the car. We were going to take it to Bob's Watch Repair to get it fixed," Fenn said.
"It was stolen between last night and this morning. [I] came out to the car everything was gone, even my wallet was stolen."
Wyatt was born on Dec. 17 of 2017 and died just five weeks and three days later on Jan. 24 2018 of sudden infant death syndrome, according to Fenn.
"It's really devastating. It's pretty much the only thing I have left of my son and I'd really love to have it back."
Fenn said the vehicle was parked at his girlfriend's house on Brioux Avenue during the incident, which he believes happened sometime between midnight and 7:00 a.m.
As a result, Fenn contacted local pawn shops and filed a police report in hopes of locating the pendant. In a post to Facebook, Fenn said he hopes that the public can help in the meantime.
"Please, please, please return it. I really need it back," the post reads.
"They can keep everything else. Keep the wallet, keep the money, keep whatever, I just want the necklace back," Fenn added.

Q: Qt call custom sub target from top level I have a Qt 5.8 project that uses SUBDIRS and one of the sub targets has a custom target something similar to this:
main.pro:
SUBDIRS = subtarget

subtarget.pro:
mytarget.target = .buildfile
mytarget.commands = touch $$mytarget.target
mytarget.depends = mytarget2

QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += mytarget

Generating the Makefiles from this using qmake will correctly add my custom target in the subtargets Makefile. However I would like to call it from the toplevel Makefile such that I could just call "make mytarget" from the top level. Note that this custom target is not supposed to be run by default, only explicitly.

A: The trick is to define a target with the same name in the toplevel project, and tell qmake that this target should call subtargets as well. This can be done by adding the following lines to main.pro:
mytarget.target = .buildfile
mytarget.CONFIG += recursive
mytarget.recurse_target = .buildfile
QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += mytarget

I case you have multiple subprojects, this target must be present in all of them. You can create dummy targets for projects that don't have such a target as follows:
dummyTarget.target = .buildfile
QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += dummyTarget

Two Austrian companies reached the final of the Energy Globe competition 2008 in which more than 800 environment-friendly and innovative technology projects participated. One of them, Fronius International GmbH, won first prize in the category air.
Two Austrian companies reached the final of the Energy Globe competition 2008 in which more than 800 environment-friendly and innovative technology projects world-wide participated: Fronius International GmbH which produces 90% of the energy for its site in Sattledt (Upper Austria) by its own photovoltaics and biomass power plants, and Demon® from Strass in Tyrol with its "Powerhouse Wastewater Treatment Plant".
Fronius International GmbH won the first prize in the category air. In addition, they received the international Energy Globe which was awarded by the audience. The President of the Austrian Federal Chamber of Commerce, Christoph Leitl, congratulated the company stressing the importance of the innovative and medium-sized Austrian family enterprise which has competed successfully with big companies. He said that Austrian companies are world-leaders not only in the development of but also in the application of environmental technology. This was shown by the Energy Globe competition 2008 in which the world-beating sustainable projects were awarded prizes.
The performance of the Austrian companies in the Energy Globe competition 2008 demonstrates that the Austrian economy is fit for the future in one of the most important markets, the environmental industry. 230 Austrian companies are working in the sector of renewable energy. In 2006, their business volume reached approx. 2.8 billion Euro. An exceptionally strong growth and an above-average export quota characterize this branch.

Q: MouseMoved Timer Countdown in Swing i would like to ask how to make 60 sec countdown with Timer starting when first moving the mouse (and display it in the title). Then at the end i would like to display some jOptionPane.Message or something. Here's the code...
private void jPanel2MouseMoved(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt)   {
    jPanel1.setBounds(evt.getX(), evt.getY(), jPanel1.getWidth(), jPanel1.getHeight());
    int a = KEK.nextInt(jPanel2.getWidth()-15);
    int b = KEK.nextInt(jPanel2.getHeight()-15);
    if(jPanel1.getBounds().intersects(jPanel3.getBounds()) == true){
        rurin++;
        jPanel3.setBounds(a, b, jPanel3.getWidth(), jPanel3.getHeight());
        this.setTitle("Number of red dots touched: " +rurin+" ");
    }
}

A: *

*Create an instance of the class that implements the ActionListener: Example EmilsListener list = new EmilsListener();

*Create an instance of the Timer class, and pass object and the time for it to restart to it:Timer tym = new Timer(1000,list);

*Add the listener to the timer and then start the timer: Eg

tym.addActionListener(list);
tym.start();//But before this make sure you defined the EmilsListener class which must also contain your `jPanel2MouseMoved()` method.

You can check out a complete example of the timer in the accepted answer from this stackoverflow page

Q: Do these integrals have a closed form? $I_1 = \int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sin (x)}{x \cosh (x)} \, dx$ The following integrals look like they might have a closed form, but Mathematica could not find one. Can they be calculated, perhaps by differentiating under the integral sign?
$$I_1 = \int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sin (x)}{x \cosh (x)} \, dx$$
$$I_2 = \int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sin ^2(x)}{x \sinh (x)} \, dx$$

A: For $I_2$, we can use a well-known result:
$$ \int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sinh (ax)}{\sinh(bx)}dx=\frac{\pi}{b}\tan\frac{a\pi}{2b}. $$
Note $\sinh(ix)=\sin(x), \tanh(ix)=\tan(x)$. Thus
$$ \int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sin (ax)}{\sinh(bx)}dx=\int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sinh (iax)}{\sinh(bx)}dx=\frac{\pi}{b}\tanh\frac{a\pi}{2b}. $$
For $I_2$, define
$$ I_2(a)=\int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sin^2(ax)}{x\sinh (x)}dx. $$
Then $I_2(0)=0$ and $I_2(1)=I_2$. Now
\begin{eqnarray}
I_2'(a)&=&\int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{2\sin(ax)\cos(ax)}{\sinh (x)}dx\\
&=&\int_{-\infty }^{\infty } \frac{\sin(2ax)}{\sinh (x)}dx\\
&=&\pi\tanh(a\pi).
\end{eqnarray}
So
$$ I_2(1)=\int_0^1\pi\tan(a\pi)da=\ln(\cosh(a\pi)). $$

*$\ds{\large\color{#000}{\tt I_{2}\equiv
\int_{-\infty }^{\infty }{\sin^{2}\pars{x} \over x\sinh\pars{x}} \,\dd x}}$

$\tt\mbox{It can be evaluated by following a similar technique}$.

A: First I'm going to evaluate $$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\cos ax}{\cosh x} \ dx .$$
Integrate the function $ \displaystyle f(z) = \frac{e^{iaz}}{\cosh z}$ around a rectangle on the complex plane with vertices at $z= R$, $ z= R + i \pi$, $z= -R + i \pi$, and $z= - R$.
As $R \to \infty$, $ \displaystyle \int f(z) \ dz$ vanishes on the left and right sides of the rectangle.
So going around the rectangle counterclockwise, we get
$$ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) \ dx + \int_{\infty}^{-\infty} f(t + i \pi) \ dt = 2 \pi i \ \text{Res} [f(z),i \pi] ,$$
which implies
$$ (1+ e^{- a \pi}) \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{e^{iax}}{\cosh x} \ dx = 2 \pi i \lim_{z \to i \pi /2} \frac{e^{iaz}}{\sinh z} = 2 \pi \ e^{- a \pi /2} .$$
And equating the real parts on both sides of the equation, we get
$$  \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\cos ax}{\cosh x} \ dx = \frac{2 \pi}{e^{a \pi /2} + e^{- a \pi/2}} = \pi \ \text{sech} \left( \frac{a \pi}{2}\right) .$$
Then
$$ \begin{align} \int_{0}^{a} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\cos ax}{\cosh x} \ dx \ da &= \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{0}^{a} \frac{\cos ax}{\cosh x} \ da \ dx \\ &= \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\sin ax}{x \cosh x} \ dx \\ &= \pi \int_{0}^{a} \text{sech} \left(\frac{a \pi}{2} \right) \ da \\ &= 2 \int_{0}^{a \pi /2} \text{sech}(u) \ du  \\ &= 4 \int_{0}^{a \pi /2} \frac{e^{u}}{1+e^{2u}} \ du \\ &= 4 \int_{1}^{e^{a \pi /2}} \frac{1}{1+w^{2}} \ dw \\ &= 4 \left(\arctan (e^{a \pi /2}) - \frac{\pi}{4} \right) . \end{align}$$
Therefore,
$$ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\sin x}{x \cosh x} \ dx = 4 \arctan (e^{\pi /2}) - \pi  \approx 2.3217507819 . $$

A: For the first one we need:
$$\int _{-1/2}^{1/2}\!{{\rm e}^{2\,iax}}{da}={\frac {\sin \left( x
 \right) }{x}}\tag{1}$$
$$ \frac{1}{\cosh \left( x \right)}=-2\,\sum _{n=1}^{\infty
} \left( -1 \right) ^{n}{{\rm e}^{- \left| x \right|  \left( 2\,n-1
 \right) }}\tag{2}$$
$$\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }\!{{\rm e}^{2\,iax}}{{\rm e}^{- \left| x
 \right|  \left( 2\,n-1 \right) }}{dx}=- \frac{1}{\left( 2\,ia-2\,n+1 \right) }-  \frac{1}{\left( -2\,ia-2\,n+1 \right)}\tag{3}$$
$$-2\,\sum _{n=1}^{\infty } \left( -1 \right) ^{n} \left(- \frac{1}{\left( 2\,ia-2\,n+1 \right) }-  \frac{1}{\left( -2\,ia-2\,n+1 \right)} \right) ={
\frac {\pi }{\cosh \left( \pi \,a \right) }}\tag{4}$$
we get:
$$
\begin{aligned}
\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }\!{\frac {\sin \left( x \right) }{x\cosh
 \left( x \right) }}{dx}&=\int _{-1/2}^{1/2}\!{\frac {\pi }{\cosh
 \left( \pi \,a \right) }}{da}\\
&=2\,\arctan \left( {
{\rm e}^{1/2\,\pi }} \right)-2\,\arctan \left( {{\rm e}^{-1/2\,\pi }} \right)\\
&=2\,\arctan \left( \sinh \left( \frac{1}{2}\,\pi  \right)  \right)
\end{aligned}\tag{5}$$
where the last part follows from $(2)$ and the Taylor series for arctan:
$$\arctan \left( x \right) =\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac { \left( -1
 \right) ^{n}{x}^{2\,n+1}}{2\,n+1}}\tag{6}$$
For the second one we need:
$$ \frac{1}{\sinh \left( x \right) }=2\,\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }
{{\rm e}^{-x \left( 2\,n-1 \right) }}\tag{7}$$
$${\frac { \sin^2 \left( x \right)}{x}}=-\frac{1}{2}\,\sum _{
m=1}^{\infty }{\frac { \left( -1 \right) ^{m}{2}^{2\,m}{x}^{2\,m-1}}{
 \left( 2\,m \right) !}}\tag{8}$$
$$\int _{0}^{\infty }\!{x}^{2\,m-1}{{\rm e}^{-x \left( 2\,n-1 \right) }}
{dx}={\frac { \left( 2\,m-1 \right) !}{ \left( 2\,n-1 \right) ^{2\,m}}
}\tag{9}$$
$$\cot \left( z \right) -\frac{1}{z}=-\frac{2}{\pi}\,\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }\zeta
 \left( 2\,m \right)  \left( {\frac {z}{\pi }} \right) ^{2\,m-1}\tag{10}$$
From $(6,7,8)$:
$$
\begin{aligned}
\int _{0}^{\infty }\!{\frac { \sin^2 \left( x \right)}{x\sinh \left( x \right) }}{dx}&=-\frac{1}{2}\,\sum _{m=1}^{\infty } \left(
\frac{\left( -4 \right) ^{m}}{m}\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{\left( 2\,n-1
 \right) ^{2\,m}}} \right)\\
&=\frac{1}{4}\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }\,{\frac
{\zeta  \left( 2\,m \right)  \left( {4}^{m}-1 \right)  \left( -1
 \right) ^{m}}{m}}
\end{aligned}\tag{11}$$
and after integrating $(10)$ once we know that:
$$\ln  \left( {\frac {\sin \left( z \right) }{z}} \right) =-\sum _{m=1}^
{\infty }\frac{\zeta  \left( 2\,m \right)}{m}  \left( {\frac {z}{\pi }} \right)
^{2\,m}\tag{12}
$$
so by comparing $(11)$ with $(12)$ we know that:
$$
\begin{aligned}\int _{0}^{\infty }\!{\frac { \sin^2 \left( x \right)  }{x\sinh \left( x \right) }}{dx}&=\frac{1}{2}\,\ln\!\left( \frac{1}{2}\,{\frac {\sinh
 \left( 2\,\pi  \right) }{\sinh \left( \pi  \right) }} \right)\\
&=\frac{1}{2}\,\ln  \left( \cosh \left( \pi
 \right)  \right)
\end{aligned}$$

A: I do not know of a closed form but it seems that the integral can be
converted into an infinite series. Let
$$
I_{1}(k)=\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }dx\frac{\sin kx}{x\cosh x}
$$
so $I_{1}=I_{1}(1).$ Now (note that $I_{1}(0)$ vanishes)
\begin{eqnarray*}
\partial _{k}I_{1}(k) &=&\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }dx\frac{\cos kx}{\cosh x}=%
{Re}\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }dx\frac{\exp [ikx]}{\cosh x}\\&=&2{Re}%
\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }dx\exp [ikx]\frac{1}{\exp [x]+\exp [-x]} \\
I_{1} &=&\int_{0}^{1}dk\partial _{k}I_{1}(k)
\end{eqnarray*}
If this Fourier transform is known we can try to integrate over $k$ and
obtain $I_{1}(k)$ and hence $I_{1}$. If not we note that $(\exp [z]+\exp
[-z])^{-1}$ has poles $z_{n}=i\pi (1+2n)$ so closing the contour in the
upper half plane results in
$$
\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }dx\exp [ikx]\frac{1}{\exp [x]+\exp [-x]}=2\pi
i\sum_{n}r_{n}\exp [ikz_{n}]
$$
where the $r_{n}$ are the residues and the sum over $n$ is that with $z_{n}$
in the upper half plane. Now the $k$-integral can be done and we end up with
a sum over $n$.

Uganda registered an overall 32 per cent drop in new refugee arrivals in the month of July, but according to United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees latest update covering between July 1 and 31, there has been a more than normal spike in Burundian refugee arrivals.
From July 1 to 30, a total of 8,295 new refugees crossed into Uganda; some 6,490 were from the DRC, while those from South Sudan were 944 and Burundi, 861.
« This represents an overall decrease of 32 per cent compared with the previous month, » the UNHCR update says, noting that while both DRC and South Sudan had showed drops in arrival rates, Burundi arrivals showed a spike whose cause the UN Refugee Agency says remains unclear.
« We don't know … Our arrival check point analysts are still studying the data, » Ms Duniya Aslam Khan, the UNHCR Uganda spokesperson.
Tanzania recently issued notice that it will repatriate Burundian refugees starting this October.
Some analysts argue that the rise in new arrivals from Burundi « was expected around this time » and « will continue into next year, » triggered by Tanzania's plan to repatriate Burundian refugees, which comes barely eight months before Burundi goes to the polls in May 2020.

Kremlin critics questioned by the German judiciary
Russian opposition activist Alexei Navalny has been questioned by the prosecutor about the attack on him. The Ministry of Justice emphasizes Russia's responsibility in providing information.
Kremlin critic Alexej Navalny has been questioned by German prosecutors about the poison attack on his life. "As part of the mutual legal assistance procedure, Mr Nawalny was questioned as a victim witness yesterday by the Berlin prosecutor," a spokesman for the Federal Justice Department said in Berlin on Friday. There were "no Russian researchers present"; Navalny "strongly objected" to their presence.
The ministry spokesman stressed that the interrogation "did not signify approval of one or more" requests for legal assistance from the Russian side. "That has yet to be decided." Moreover, it remains true that Russia must clarify the matter. "This crime must be investigated in Russia. This requires an investigation appropriate to the seriousness of the crime. All necessary information such as blood and tissue samples and clothing is in Russia," said the spokesman.
Putin's statements 'stand for themselves'
Navalny collapsed on a flight from Russia in August. Two days later he was transferred in a coma to Charité University Hospital in Berlin. According to three European laboratories, the results of which have been confirmed by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), Navalny has been poisoned with a chemical nerve agent from the Novichok group.
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday denied that Russian secret services were involved in the poison attack. If these had been involved, "they would have ended it," he said at his traditional press conference at the end of the year.
Government spokesman Steffen Seibert declined to comment on these statements in Berlin on Friday. Putin's statements "stand for themselves," he said. Foreign Affairs also declined to comment.

Il carnevale di Venezia è un film muto del 1928 diretto da Mario Almirante.

Trama
Venezia. Jefferson, ricco americano, acquista all'asta l'antica dimora del duca Morosin in difficoltà economiche. Alla vendita assiste commossa Gabriella, cui da bambina la madre aveva parlato di quel sontuoso palazzo. Nell'occasione incontra casualmente Germaine, che cerca di farsi sposare da Jefferson, e le due giovani fanno amicizia. Poco dopo Gabriella si fidanza con Giorgio, ma in seguito costui l'abbandona a parte per Aix-les-Bains. Germaine parte anche lei per la località termale, sempre seguendo Jefferson, a si fa accompagnare da Gabriella, che scopre il vizio del gioco di Giorgio e, in lacrime, viene confortata da Jefferson che non conosce la sua identità.

Germaine ospita la disperata Gabriella e in tal modo Jefferson incontra di nuovo la sconosciuta che aveva visto in lacrime. Prima la assume come assistente e poi se ne innamora. Tornati tutti a Venezia, il caso vuole che durante il Carnevale il duca Morosin riconosca in Gabriella il frutto di un amore giovanile del suo defunto figlio che egli aveva contrastato. Pentito, accoglie la ragazza nella famiglia e Gabriella, diventata adesso duchessa Morosin, può sposare Jefferson. Anche il palazzo nobiliare è salvo.

Produzione
Il Carnevale di Venezia fu una delle 6 pellicole realizzate per la stagione cinematografica 1927-1928 dalla S.A.S.P. di Stefano Pittaluga, al tempo rimasta la più importante società italiana di produzione cinematografica dopo la profonda crisi che aveva interessato tale settore nel dopoguerra, suscitando sin dal'inizio del decennio ricorrenti, quanto vane, richieste di un suo rilancio (nella prosa del tempo definita come una "rinascita").

Sul finire degli anni venti i commentatori si dividevano tra coloro che appoggiavano l'azienda torinese, definendola «l'equivalente della nostra "Paramount" che produce in un anno solo 6 films, ma meglio che niente» ed altri che - come Blasetti ed il gruppo raccolto attorno alla rivista cinematografo - accusavano proprio Pittaluga di essere uno dei maggiori responsabili della crisi in quanto titolare di un'azienda i cui bilanci dipendevano largamente dall'import di pellicole straniere, soprattutto americane., puntando come alternativa sulla romano- fiorentina "I.C.S.A.", che poi invece non avrà successo.

In questa situazione  Il Carnevale di Venezia fu visto come un fattore «di quella ripresa della cinematografia italiana auspicata ed appoggiata da nazione e Governo di cui la Pittaluga s'è messa alla testa [che] per il nome degli interpreti, per il soggetto e per la cura con cui è stato studiato ed allestito segnerà una nuova tappa nella nostra [italiana n.d.r.] produzione». In effetti il film ebbe una preparazione impegnativa e la lavorazione durò oltre due mesi, con interni girati nei 3 stabilimenti di cui la S.A.S.P. disponeva a Torino, tutti in vario modo provenienti dalle aziende già appartenenti alla fallita U.C.I., rilevata  da Pittaluga nel 1926.

Per gli esterni si allestì nella città lagunare un apposito impianto di gruppi elettrogeni per le scene notturne e si impegnarono notevoli risorse per i costumi e le comparse, come già era accaduto l'anno precedente per la produzione francese di Casanova. Si ricorse a due dei migliori operatori italiani quali Arata e Terzano.

L'impegno riguardò anche la parte artistica: per la regia si volle richiamare dalla Germania, dove s'era trasferito a lavorare, Righelli, che però rifiutò l'incarico, sostituito da Almirante; dalla Germania rientrò anche l'interprete Maria Jacobini, come fecero. sempre per la S.A.S.P. altri cineasti scritturati nello stesso periodo per altre pellicole. Confidando in una distribuzione internazionale alcuni altri ruoli vennero affidati ad attori ed attrici esteri a quel tempo noti come l'inglese Malcom Tod e la francese Josyane, nome d'arte di Marcelle Leroux.

La lavorazione terminò nel dicembre 1927 e la pellicola fu approvata (non senza qualche  taglio di scene di bagnanti al Lido di Venezia ritenute eccessivamente discinte) dalla censura il 31 dicembre 1927 (visto numero 23904) venendo proiettata per la prima volta il 2 gennaio 1928.

Accoglienza
Attorno al Carnevale di Venezia si accese una disputa che andò al di là del valore artistico del film e coinvolse non soltanto i commentatori, ma lo stesso soggettista Pier Angelo Mazzolotti. Da un lato vi fu chi lo ritenne «un successo assoluto, espressione di una commedia sana e buona e che è pura espressione di italianità che accomuna umorismo schietto e sentimento profondo [per cui] riassume in sé le migliori caratteristiche del film internazionale che piace a tutti i pubblici ed infatti le relazioni che provengono dalle varie città sono di esaltazione del nuovissimo capolavoro», per quanto oggi non si disponga, come per tutte le opere di quegli anni, di dati economici ufficiali.

Ma altri commenti rimproverarono al film di «rappresentare un patrizio italiano come un pitocco, mentre l'eroe del film avrebbe dovuto essere un ardito pioniere italiano [ed] inoltre in questo film Venezia è dimenticata». E vi fu chi protestò, chiedendo «come mai non ci è resi conto che creando un americano prodigo ed un veneziano decaduto si veniva involontariamente ad abbassare la dignità italiana?».

L'emergere di una critica al film che pur riconoscendone la qualità scenografica con immagini notturne in Laguna definite «sontuose», lo contestò da un punto di vista "nazionalista", indusse Mazzolotti a prendere le distanze dalla trasposizione del suo soggetto. In una lettera inviata a diversi quotidiani di ispirazione fascista come L'Impero, Il Tevere o La Tribuna egli informò di non aver voluto partecipare alla stesura dei titoli e di aver chiesto a Pittaluga di eliminare il suo nome dall'opera, giudicandola in contrasto con il suo soggetto, ma che ciò non era stato possibile in quanto la distribuzione era già partita: a scusante dell'accaduto aggiungeva che «la mia vita di cittadino, di ufficiale decorato, è ben nota a tutti gli ambienti fascisti della mia città».

Ciononostante la polemica non si placò facilmente, restando concentrata più sul significato del racconto che sul dato artistico. I detrattori considerarono  «insignificanti ed anticinematografici soggetto e sceneggiatura; in Italia l'autore cinematografico ancora non esiste», oppure scrissero che «la bellezza degli ambienti veneziani e la bravura degli artisti non possono nascondere il senso di disagio che si prova a considerare la scarsa simpatia in cui sono tenute le nostre [italiane n.d.r.] realtà», mentre alcune testate scelsero semplicemente di ignorare l'uscita di un film pur così ampiamente pubblicizzato. L'insistenza di alcuni attacchi indusse la produzione a ritirare temporaneamente il film per effettuarne una revisione che portò, tra l'altro, a rinominare il personaggio dell'americano Jefferson con il cognome italiano di Albani.

Al contrario, i difensori del film lamentarono che «si parla di rinascita del cinema italiano che si deve intendere anche per ciò che porta nel mondo le parole, lo spirito, la vita italiana, giacché un uomo e un partito l'hanno messo in felice condizione in faccia al mondo e l'Italia cinematografica non ha torto a convergere sguardi e speranze nella Pittaluga che saprà presto darci il film perfetto». Altri accusarono i detrattori di «scagliarsi come energumeni contro quei volenterosi che fanno il possibile per sorreggere la produzione italiana; il capitale, già istintivamente diffidente, non ne sarà certo incoraggiato».

Gli aspetti artistici del film, messi in secondo piano dalla polemica del tempo, non sono oggi più valutabili, in quanto Il Carnevale di Venezia è considerato un film perduto, risultandone disponibile e visibile presso la Cineteca Nazionale soltanto il "trailer" .

Good, old-fashioned, classic hummus. Whether it's for your falafel sandwiches, the dip for your bread, or simply for eating straight from a spoon, it's bound to make everything better. Any time. Any day.
My quest to find the perfect hummus is never-ending. I am always looking for ways to make hummus creamier, richer, smoother, and more flavorful. This particular recipe for classic hummus is inspired by those that I've enjoyed in some of the best hummus joints across the Levant. I find that the most important factors to getting that restaurant-like consistency is how the chickpeas are prepared. Soaking them in water with baking soda the day before and cooking them until extra tender is key. I am also not shy on tahini, the element that makes for rich, sharp, and velvety hummus.
Many eateries will also take the extra step of removing all of the chickpea skins after cooking, as they can make the consistency grainier. However, I am quite happy with simply skimming any loose skins that have floated to the surface of the pot. And as usual, freshly cooked chickpeas make for a better texture and flavor in comparison to canned chickpeas. But when it comes to last minute meals, the latter will do.
If you give this recipe a try, I would love to know how you liked it. Share your photo with me on Instagram (hanadyskitchen) or comment below. I would also love to learn about any tips and tricks that you've picked up during your culinary explorations.
1. Place the dried chickpeas in a bowl covered with at least 3 inches of water. Add 3 teaspoons baking soda and leave to soak overnight.
2. The following day, drain the chickpeas, and place them in a medium pot filled with boiling water. Cook over a high heat for about 60-80 minutes or until very tender (overcooked is good for hummus). Skim off any foam and loose skins that have floated to the top. Drain the chickpeas and leave to cool.
3. In a food processor or very high-powered blender, combine the lemon juice, crushed garlic, salt, tahini, cumin, and 1/2 cup of water. Blend until completely smooth. Add the chickpeas and continue to blend for a couple of minutes or until you get a smoother than smooth and creamy consistency, adding water along the way. Scrape the sides and bottom of food processor or blender. Check for seasoning and add liquid if the hummus is too thick. Blend well.
4. Serve and top with good quality extra-virgin olive oil, paprika, and fresh parsley. Additional topping ideas include tahini-lemon sauce, chili flakes, zaa'tar, sumac, pomegranate seeds, finely chopped lamb, toasted pine nuts, toasted almonds, chickpeas, and green chili sauce. Leftover hummus keeps well refrigerated for up to 2 days.
5. Enjoy with good company.
* While 1 cup of tahini may sound excessive, it makes for the texture and flavor that characterizes traditional Levantine hummus. If you prefer to reduce the amount, use 2/3 cups of tahini and stream in water until you get a creamy consistency.
** 1 cup dried chickpeas equates to about 3 cups cooked chickpeas.
Perfect! It looks creamy and sounds delicious! I should try it!
This looks so delicious and creamy! I love hummus!
Thank you so much Shanika!
Oh yes!!!! Can't wait to try! Have never used as much tahini but am more than game nor have I reached for the baking soda! And, *big smile*, never mind about good company – this is most likely to land on my breakfast toast with a cup of coffee on side reading the morning paper in bed 🙂 !
So love your descriptions! Written with much love for the art of food, cooking, and sharing – thank you!

On Track: St. Paul's Battle for the Railway
Linking communities in the west with the rest of the nation, the Canadian Northern Railway (incorporated as the Canadian National Railway after it was nationalized in 1918) would play an important role in the settlement of St. Paul and other prairie communities. Previously, long distance travel between villages and towns was restricted to those who could find their way to the nearest railway line in Vegreville, nearly 105 kilometres away.
When construction on a new railroad line had finally begun north of Edmonton in 1914, it seemed the community's dream of rail access would be fulfilled. However, railroad officials claimed there was a shortage of labour, and construction stopped at Spedden in 1919, 48 kilometres short of St. Paul. As did many communities on the Canadian Prairies, they banded together, and recognizing the importance of the railway to the town's economic prosperity, the citizens of St. Paul volunteered to complete the last stretch of track that would join their town with North Edmonton. In 1920, the first regular service train arrived in St. Paul. J.A. Fortier was the first Station Master and lived with his family in the station building, which was to become an important economic and service centre. Trains not only allowed passenger travel, they also brought mail, equipment, and merchandise. The railway also meant farmers could transport cattle and crops to larger urban centres more easily.
