When it comes to preventive maintenance and ensuring the safety of employees in the workplace, proper hose selection is an essential first step. There are many different types of hydraulic hoses, rated differently based upon the type of hydraulic fluid that they can handle, as well as temperature, equipment requirements, work environment, and much more. As a result, custom hydraulic hose services are needed to ensure a proper fit. Choosing the best product for your particular needs will help you to not only increase safety but also to get the maximum life out of your hydraulic equipment.
Getting started, you should measure the hose length. The length that is measured is what is considered to be the OAL or overall length measurement, which includes not just the hoses, but the entire hydraulic hose assemblies. Measuring begins from the of the male fitting to the center of the angled female fitting. If you are unsure how to do this or need additional support, contact Metro Industrial & Marine Supply. We can assist you by providing tips for proper measurement so we can create the custom hoses in Fall River that you require. You will also need to measure the hose fitting orientation, which is measured in degrees that are set in a clockwise direction. Straight up would be 0-degrees, a right angle to the right would be 90-degrees, straight up and down would be 180-degrees, and so on. Again, if you need assistance in this area for your custom hydraulic hose services, don't hesitate to ask.
There are also different types of hoses that can be used to create your hydraulic hose assemblies. Again, this will depend on the application, the hydraulic fluid, the amount of pressure, the work environment, and other factors. Industrial hose, hydraulic hose, pneumatic hose, metal hose, rubber hose, vacuum suction and discharge hose, transfer hose, heavy equipment hose, automotive hose, and other options, along with the appropriate fittings and adapters can be created for you at Metro Industrial & Marine Supply. Our made-to-order custom hoses in Fall River are designed to meet or exceed your expectations to provide you with top quality, high-performance results. Hydraulic hoses while you wait are great for anything from routine replacement to emergency services, depending on your situation.
If you work regularly with hydraulic equipment or are in charge of making sure that supplies are ready and available to reduce downtime with essential machines, having all the details on your needs for hydraulic hose assemblies can make a big difference. Measuring all of the hoses and keeping track of the requirements for each piece of equipment can help you to contact Metro Industrial & Marine Supply right away to get your hydraulic hose assemblies ready for pick-up and installation. Having an understanding of your hydraulic system will also help you to improve safety in the workplace. Modern hydraulic systems have a lot more pressure and power to provide faster and stronger production. As a result, the increased heat and pressure can be dangerous if you don't know what you're dealing with and aren't prepared for failure situations.
While most people think about big leaks as being the most dangerous, small leaks can be deadly. When working around hydraulic equipment, safety gear is essential. An undetected pinhole leak within a hydraulic hose could inject fluid into an employee or other person standing nearby the machine. Skin penetration can happen at pressures as low as 100 PSI, which can have life-threatening results if it is left untreated. Hydraulic fluid will immediately begin to kill tissue if it enters the body, which can be deadly. The injection itself might feel like a simple pinprick and not look dangerous, but it can quickly become a big problem for the individual. Emergency treatment is required for any injuries that occur concerning hydraulic equipment hose failures and leaks.
The more you can do to be actively proactive with prevention for a failure of hydraulic hose assemblies, the safer and more efficient everyone will be at your workplace. A comprehensive preventive maintenance program should be in place, and before any inspections or work is performed, the machine must be shut down and allowed to cool down completely, retracting cylinders, relieving pressure, and fully depressurizing all accumulators. Once all of this is complete, the visual inspection can begin. Have a complete checklist available for your crew or anyone performing the inspection before addressing any custom hydraulic hose services. This will help to ensure that nothing gets overlooked or missed. Take your time and don't allow yourself to get rushed for any reason. Get any replacement hoses while you wait at Metro Industrial & Marine Supply to help get your machine back on track as quickly as possible.

There is so many cancer stimulating foods that are readily available and unknowingly contained in every day meals. There should be a greater emphasis on creating and following a practicable cancer pushing diet.
One of the most important parts of any diet, and that of a cancer pushing diet, should be the intake of countless plant-based nutrients. Plant-based meat are an important part of a cancer opposing diet because of the phytonutrients and additional compounds that are beneficial for the prevention and treatment of several types of cancer.
Here are some of the more powerful plant-based menus that should be a part of any cancer opposing diet.
Any type of cruciferous vegetable will have cancer defending belongings including kale, cauliflower, cabbage, etc.
However, broccoli is especially potent in a cancer contending diet because it contains sulforaphane which is a combination that deepens the production processes protective enzymes in the body while removing cancer making chemicals. Investigate in mice has revealed that sulforaphane attacks cancer stem cells which assist in tumor growth.
Doctors promote the consumption of broccoli any time probable. Incorporate broccoli in virtually any snack such as omelets or on top of a pizza.
Berries are an essential part of any cancer defending diet because of the available phytonutrients.
However, pitch-black raspberries have the maximum concentration of phytochemicals known as anthocyanins. Anthocyanins stunt the growth of premalignant cadres and dissuade the growth of new blood vessels that they are able feed a tumor.
Approximately 8,000 deaths each year is a result of endometrial cancer. Tomatoes, exclusively cooked tomatoes, contain large amounts of lycopene. Study demonstrate that lycopene can actually stop endometrial cancer cadre growth.
Walnuts contain cholesterol-like molecules often may be in embeds known as phytosterols. Phytosterols are important because they are known to stymie estrogen receptors of breast cancer cells that would result in the cadres growing more slowly.
Consuming at least an ounce of walnuts every day as part of a cancer contending diet can assist in the fight against breast and prostate cancer.
Garlic has phytochemicals that are known to stunt the growth of carcinogens known as nitrosamines that structure in the gut and intestines in accordance with the uptake of nitrates. Nitrates are a common food preservative that can specially be found in processed meats.
A recent learn been demonstrated that women who spent large amounts of garlic in a cancer pushing diet had a 50% lower danger of developing colon cancer than women who spent lesser amounts.
Beans or legumes have high levels of butyrate, which is a fatty battery-acid that has dimensions known to fight cancer growth. Analyses in rats have shown the efficiency of nuts in the fight against colon and breast cancer specifically.
A half a goblet of beans a few times a week introduced into a cancer engaging diet can be used to reap the compensations of butyrate.
Catechins are antioxidants in light-green tea that can help fight against cancer in several ways. Catechins help contain free radicals from injuring cells and they have also been shown to diminish or increase the growth of tumors in various studies.
A daily beaker or more of green tea will be beneficial to any cancer crusading diet.
Whole cereals contain components such as fiber and antioxidants that they are able lower the risk to develop cancer. A recent study revealed that the uptake of whole specks are potentially abridge threats to colorectal cancer in approximately a half a million people.
Some of the whole specks that should be considered for a cancer contending diet include barley, oatmeal, unpolished rice and whole-wheat pasta and bread.
A well-rounded cancer opposing diet can be essential to the treatment and prevention of various types of cancer. The intake of plant-based products should remain a priority for any cancer crusading diet.

Urban Bites, Telok Ayer: A New Lebanese Cuisine Version (2.0) is Available. Would You Like to Download It and Update Your iFood Now?
It is not easy to open a Middle-Eastern restaurant in Singapore; most of the ones we had been are already permanently closed. But Urban Bites at Telok Ayer, which serves Lebanese food, was started by chef-owner Ghazi Khanashat, also known as the "Godfather" of Lebanese cuisine, TEN years ago and it is still going strong.
Now the family business is passed to his daughter, Christine, who runs it with a Lebanese chef, Haroutioun Ara Sayegh. Together, they are adding modern touches to Khanashat's original and traditional recipes while staying true to the spirit of Lebanese flavours. Whenever possible, they use sustainable food sources and bring in ingredients from Lebanon. They have also included a weekend brunch menu, which we tried along with some signature items and some new dishes.
Weekend Brunch Menu
The cheese manouche ($16) is a flat bread stuffed with four cheese, jeddal, feta, mozzarella, and akkawi, and baked in the stone oven. For the Lebanese pizza that uses four cheeses, I find it not cheesy enough; it can be more.
The fettet cauliflower ($15) isn't for everyone–someone at my table didn't like it–but I love it. Garlic-chili roasted cauliflower and toasted crunchy chickpeas are doused in a homemade yogurt and then it is topped with crispy pita chips and pomegranate seeds. Accompanied with bread. If you like yogurt and other sour things like me, you'll like this. But it would be better if the cauliflower fills the bowl and then yogurt is poured into it; currently, the vegetable is floating on the white sea.
Mr Fitness's favorite is the lamb shashouka ($20) but it's not mine. Pulled lamb and three poached eggs are served in a skillet with housemade tomato sauce, feta cheese, kale leaves, and a side of bread. My experience with shashouka is that it is tomatoy that gives an umami, but this one has little tomato sauce, which makes it feel like it's eggs on lamb.
But my least, least favorite has to be the Lebanese Big Breakfast ($20): Labueh yogurt cheese, fattet hummus, bread, hardboiled egg, assorted vegetables. There is no focus in this dish and it is a mere composite of elements taken from other dishes.
The hummus ($18), which is made freshly twice a day, is probably my favourite dish here. I'm not a fan of chickpeas but there is something so addictive about this mashed chickpeas with tahini, lemon juice, and olive oil.
I like meat so I finished the mixed grill ($33) but to be honest, the char-grilled kebabs–chicken, beef tenderloin, minced lamb, and minced chicken–are a tad overdone and tough.
Ooh I like this one. Falafel salad ($18): mesclun greens, cucumber, beetroot, avocado, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, falafel, with tahini dressing. It's clean and refreshing and packed with superfoods. Very nice for lunch!
I couldn't appreciate the dessert, osmaliyeh ($12), although everyone else did. It's a three-tier dessert of strawberries, homemade sweet clotted cream, and flash-fried filo strings, with a side of rose syrup. I don't like the crunchy filo as dessert–it's like eating a snack–and I don't like pouring syrup because it's additional sugar.
On the whole, Urban Bites, the stalwart of Lebanese cooking in Singapore, is a sincere and interesting restaurant, and there will be many years to come with the young management and constant striving for improvement.

Press regulation: Charlotte Harris and Neil Wallis
Lawyer Charlotte Harris called for an independent press regulator where publishers had to sign up to replace what she called the "self-serving job for the boys self-regulation", but said it would not be state regulation.
But former newspaper editor Neil Wallis said there were 40 existing statutes to cover newspaper journalists, which included some of the powers Ms Harris and others were calling for.
Former Press Complaints Commission chairman Sir Christopher Meyer said "we did a hell of a lot" when asked to explain how the body had helped to regulate the press. He said that statutory regulation was not the answer and would not have dealt with phone hacking.

UCLA women's basketball team leans on mental toughness
Season preview: Lacking last year's depth, the Bruins feature eight new faces and are led by guard Charisma Osborne
UCLA guard Natalie Chou (23) celebrates her 3-point basket against Wyoming with guard Charisma Osborne (20) during the second half of a college basketball game in the first round of the NCAA women's tournament at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas, Monday, March 22, 2021.

By Haley Sawyer |
Each day before practice, the UCLA women's basketball team gets a lesson on mentality from assistant coach Tasha Brown. One particular practice, the lesson involved vocabulary.
"We find ourselves using words like 'don't' and 'can't' a lot," guard Natalie Chou said. "So we're all trying as a team to eliminate that and just using better vocabulary to talk to ourselves and the rest of the team."
Facing some slight adversity in the form of an early injury, the Bruins are focusing on what they do have and what they can do. But given the postseason they accomplished last season on a shortened bench, they can potentially do a lot.
"I don't think we're quite as deep as we thought," coach Cori Close said, "but I think that's where we draw on the experience of last year. We still have a lot more than we had last year and we proved that we can choose the mental toughness that it takes over a long season."
Emily Bessoir was named to the Pac-12 All-Freshman team last season and was poised to be a significant role player again. However, the 6-foot-4 German forward suffered a torn ACL in October and will be sidelined for the season.
UCLA, picked third in the Pac-12 preseason poll, has plenty of options to fill the gap. Between graduate transfers, players who opted out of last season due to COVID-19, and international players who were not eligible last year because of COVID-19 protocols, there are eight new faces on the team.
"I think it's going to be by committee," Close said. "We really are position-less in that way. We just need more people to make plays."
Redshirt freshman transfer Angela Dugalić averaged 3.4 points and four rebounds per game at Oregon last season and gained international experience playing for Serbia in the Tokyo Olympics.
"She's just such a workhorse," Chou said of the 6-4 forward. "She'll be first one sprinting down and back and she has a great mind for the game."
International player Izzy Anstey joins the team as a redshirt freshman forward. Her 6-foot-4 frame and high basketball IQ could be an asset, according to Close, especially in zone coverage.
The Bruins saw Michaela Onyenwere graduate and become the WNBA Rookie of the Year. Now Charisma Osborne has risen to fulfill the part of leader on the team. Close said she believes Osborne, who averaged 17 points and 3.8 assists per game last season, has become one of the most complete guards in the country.
Two graduate transfers could be playmakers: 2020-21 ACC Player of the Year Iimar'i Thomas (Cincinnati) at forward and guard Jaelynn Penn (Indiana).
"Everyone is going to need to play a major role, but one of the things I've been really pleased about is the perimeter defense of Charisma and Jaelynn," Close said. "I think they are great off-ball defenders as well as on-ball defenders and they just make everything better in our defense."
Redshirt freshman guard Dominique Onu returns for her second season after enrolling early at UCLA last season and playing in 16 games.
Chou, as a graduate player, comes back with some of the most experience at UCLA. She averaged 9.9 points and 4.3 rebounds last season.
Chou and point guard Gina Conti, a transfer from Wake Forest who earned All-ACC second-team honors last season, each earned preseason All-Pac-12 honorable mention honors. Osborne was named to the preseason all-conference team.
"We're really focusing on that and just bringing 100 percent of whatever we have to the team," Chou said. "As long as we work hard every single day and bring 100 percent, we'll be where we need to be by the end of March."
Coach: Cori Close, 11th season
Records last season: 17-6 overall, 12-4 in Pac-12
Postseason finish: Lost in second round of NCAA Tournament
Top returners: Charisma Osborne, Jr., 5-9, guard, 17 ppg, 3.8 apg; Natalie Chou, GS, 6-1, guard, 9.9 ppg, 4.3 rpg; Chantel Horvat, R-Sr., 6-2, guard, 6.1 ppg
Key losses: Michaela Onyenwere, forward, 19.1 ppg, 7.2 rpg; Lauryn Miller, forward, 6.7 ppg
Newcomers to watch: Iimar'i Thomas, 5-10, forward, Cincinnati; Jaelynn Penn, 5-10, guard, Indiana; Angela Dugalić, 6-4, forward, Oregon; Izzy Anstey, 6-4, forward, Caulfield Grammar School

When you seek professional medical help for a health concern, you expect to be taken care of. While most doctors and nurses do their best to provide their patients with quality care, mistakes still happen. In some cases, these mistakes have life-altering consequences for the patient. If a patient is not correctly treated, the medical professional may be liable for further injury. Let's take a look at some of the most common medical malpractice claims.
In the United States, nearly 12 million people are misdiagnosed in an outpatient setting each year. Misdiagnosis is common because some illnesses have obscure symptoms or may share symptoms with another illness, and are therefore more difficult to diagnose. Without a proper diagnosis, it's nearly impossible for a doctor to implement a successful treatment plan. Diagnostic errors harm patients as they lead to delays in treatment, lack of treatment and even death. Extended hospital stays and expensive, unnecessary treatments can also create an insurmountable financial burden.
Prescription drug errors occur when a patient is given the wrong medication, wrong dosage or not made fully aware of the side effects. Many prescription drug errors go unreported by patients. Any number of medical professionals, including doctors, pharmacists and drug manufacturers could be held responsible for prescription mistakes.
Nearly 20 percent of all medical malpractice suits are filed against OBGYN's, more than any other type of doctor. Both the mother and infant can be victims of medical malpractice. Negligence during childbirth can lead to complications such as fetal distress, spinal cord injuries and postpartum hemorrhage (which is the number one cause of maternal death after delivery). Not all complications are unavoidable, but mothers and newborns deserve the highest level of care.
Surgical errors can include many different complications, such as incorrect incision site, wrong surgery site or leaving a foreign object (like a surgical sponge) inside the body. While some surgical errors are the result of a surgeon's error, most are the result of poor preoperative planning. These mistakes can lead to infections, lifelong damage and death.
Anesthesia can be dangerous if not administered properly. If an anesthesiologist doesn't focus enough attention to a patient's medical history or gives too much anesthesia, the consequences could be deadly. These errors aren't relegated to operating rooms only. Anesthesia malpractice can happen in pre-op and recovery rooms, during sedation for dental procedures and other outpatient operations.

Home » Exemptions » D.Mass.: Where 10% of Business Comprised of Sales of Automobiles, Defendant Not "Primarily Engaged in the Business of Selling Such Vehicles"
D.Mass.: Where 10% of Business Comprised of Sales of Automobiles, Defendant Not "Primarily Engaged in the Business of Selling Such Vehicles"
Carroca v. All Star Enterprises and Collision Center Inc.
Although not often the subject of litigation, pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 213(10)(a), certain employees of automobile dealerships are exempt from the FLSA's overtime requirements. Specifically, that statute exempts from overtime:
any salesman, partsman, or mechanic primarily engaged in selling or servicing automobiles, trucks, or farm implements, if he is employed by a nonmanufacturing establishment primarily engaged in the business of selling such vehicles or implements to ultimate purchasers…
In this case, the court was called upon, in part, to decide whether defendant—90% of its business was the repair of automobiles, with the remaining 10% of the business comprised of the sale of automobiles—qualified as such an automobile dealership. The court held, as a matter of law, that such a business does not qualify for the exemption.
All Star admits that Carroca was employed as an auto body repairman. D. 19 ¶ 5; D. 23 ¶ 5. Assuming without deciding that an auto body repairman is a "salesman, partsman, or mechanic," the next question, which the parties dispute, is whether Carroca was "employed by a nonmanufacturing establishment primarily engaged in the business of selling [automobiles, trucks, or farm implements] to ultimate purchasers." The Department of Labor has issued 29 C.F.R. § 779.372, which defines what it means to be "primarily engaged" in said business. According to the regulation, "[a]s applied to the establishment, primarily engaged means that over half of the establishments [sic] annual dollar volume of sales made or business done must come from sales of the enumerated vehicles." Id.; see Donovan v. Bereuter's, Inc., 704 F.2d 1034, 1036–37 (8th Cir.1983) (construing "the legislative history as indicating that Congress intended the exemption to be narrowly applied and was not designed to exempt those dealers who engage in the retail sales of automobiles to a limited degree").
Here, as All Star acknowledges, D. 22 at 2, All Star has the burden of proof with respect to the applicability of the exemption. Hines v. State Room Inc., 665 F.3d 235, 240 (1st Cir.2011). Here, All Star has not met that burden where All Star admits that only "approximately ten percent" of All Star's business constitutes automobile sales. Pl. Stmt. of Facts, D. 19 ¶ 2; Def. Resp., D. 23 ¶ 2; see Def. Resp. to Interrog. ¶ 5 (stating that "vehicle sales constitute approximately 10% of the business of Allstar; approximately 90% of the business consists of vehicle repair"). Thus, All Star is incorrect that it falls within the FLSA overtime exemption under 29 U.S.C. § 213. Accordingly, the exemption does not apply to All Star and it is bound by the overtime provisions under 29 U.S.C. § 207.

Plymouth Argyle defender Sonny Bradley: We can see something special happening here
The centre-back talks about the Pilgrims' incredible resurgence and their trip to Spain
Chris Errington
Defender Sonny Bradley has declared it is time for Plymouth Argyle to 'press on and get a play-off place' after their superb run of five successive victories.
The Pilgrims reached the 50-point mark for the season, and all-but secured their League One status for next season, with a 1-0 win away to Oxford United on Saturday.
They have gone from bottom of the table at the start of December to seventh spot now after picking up 33 points from 14 games.
Bradley, who scored the winning goal against Oxford with a far post header from a Graham Carey corner, insisted there would be no letting up from him and his team-mates.
"We aren't going to down tools," said the 26-year-old. "We have got no time for that now.
Why midfielder Jamie Ness has become such an important asset for Plymouth Argyle
"We can see something special happening here and we are not going to throw it away.
"With 12 games to go, it's time to press on and get a play-off place."
Argyle have beaten two of the top three teams in League One – Blackburn Rovers and Shrewsbury Town – as they have come up with five consecutive wins.

They will try to extend that run even further when eighth-placed Bradford City are the visitors to Home Park this Saturday.
Bradley said: "To do that in this division is not easy, especially if you look at the games we have played as well.
"We have played Blackburn, Shrewsbury, Oxford – all difficult – but when you have got the momentum and confidence we have got it's going to be very hard to beat us.
"We are only getting better. We had a bit of an off-day on Saturday but we showed we can win.
"I'm sure we will prepare well for Bradford and I think it's very much in our hands now. I'm looking forward to that game."
The Argyle squad are spending time at the Marbella Football Centre in southern Spain this week for some warm weather training.
Bradley revealed he had asked chairman James Brent about the possibility of making the trip when they attended The Herald's Sports Personality of the Year Awards night at the Plymouth Pavilions at the end of January.
The Argyle squad, including Bradley, also went to Marbella last February and they used it to propel them towards their League Two promotion.
The obstacles that Plymouth Argyle have overcome to mount their unlikely League One play-off push
Bradley explained: "I said to the chairman at the awards night 'when we went to Marbella we came back and beat Exeter and we went and got promoted, so we have got to go again'.
"He said 'leave it with me and we will see what we can do'
"We won on the Saturday (2-0 against Blackburn Rovers at Home Park on February 3) and the Gaffer came in and told us we were going to Marbella."
While the weather is warm and sunny in Marbella it is certainly not going to be a holiday for the Pilgrims' players.
Bradley said: "I think a few of the boys last year might have thought it was going to be a bit of a jolly up but it was far from that.
"It will be double sessions every day, very similar to what we do in the week, but just slightly warmer."

Iran to probe horrific death of female football fan
In this file photo taken on June 25, 2018 an Iranian woman cheers while watching their 2018 World Cup Group B match against Portugal at Azadi stadium in Tehran. PHOTO | ATTA KENARE |
The judiciary's news website said her body had been handed over to her family, who live in Qom, south of the Iranian capital.
Iran has come under pressure from Fifa to allow women to attend qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup, reportedly giving it a deadline of August 31.
Iran's judiciary has been asked to investigate the death of a woman football fan, state media said Tuesday, after she reportedly self-immolated because she feared imprisonment for trying to enter a stadium.
The country's vice president for women and family affairs, Masoumeh Ebtekar, asked the judiciary chief to look into the case in a letter, the state-run Iran newspaper reported.
Sahar Khodayari, 30, was arrested last year when she tried to go into a stadium dressed as a man to watch her favourite team, Esteghlal FC, the Varzesh 3 sports news outlet said, citing her sister.
Dubbed "blue girl" because of Esteghlal's colours, she set herself on fire outside the court last week upon hearing from someone there that she would be going to prison for six months, it said.
The judiciary's Mizan Online website said on Tuesday that no sentence had been issued since there had been no trial and the judge was away on holiday.

Premier League refs told to use monitors for red cards
The death of Khodayari sparked an outcry online, with many calling on world football's governing body Fifa to ban Iran from international competitions and for fans to boycott matches.
Pictures said to be of her in hospital covered in heavy bandages have been shared widely on social media.
Iranian football legend Ali Karimi urged his 4.5 million Instagram followers to boycott stadiums until further notice.
"The women of our land are better than men," he wrote alongside an image of a woman with a football for a heart and flames over her head.
Esteghlal FC expressed sorrow over her death.

"Gods And Monsters" is in my Top 10 favourites of all our releases, and with "The Eternal Sea" JADED EYES have somehow managed to surpass that, and conjur up a contender for album – (and make no mistake , this is an album, not a disparate collection of songs) - of the year already!! An album you need to own!
Cat No.: BTRC12-100
DEALING WITH DAMAGE - Don't Give In To Fear 7" (Ltd. 300)
DEALING WITH DAMAGE features members who have served their time in many other familar bands, including K-LINE, SINK, DONE LYING DOWN, GRAND CENTRAL, STUPIDS, BAD DRESS SENSE amongst many others - and following on from a self released digital EP last year, here comes their first vinyl release!
BURNING FLAG - Izabel LP
This one is another favorite of mine and i just can highly recommend this UK hardcore punk combo! This is a long overdue appearance on vinyl by this cracking UK hardcore punk band from Halifax who's line up features Md (vocals), Jonesy (guitar), Matt Fortune (drums) and Mark Midgley (bass). They formed in 2013 and released the Still A Lie ep the following year. 2015 saw a debut lp and this was followed in 2017 by "IZABEL" - The album's title is the name of the woman that showed the band around Auschwitz and spoke to them about the horrors that occurred there. It's also the name of the closing track. Other songs deal with topics such as the gun laws in the USA, the pollution of the planet and life in a shit hole rundown town where the sky's are grey and job prospects are not much brighter.
JADED EYES - Gods And Monsters LP (Ltd. Edition Col. Vinyl)
" Gods And Monsters" is the debut album by Leeds' JADED EYES, who although a relatively new band , feature members who have been active in the punk scene for many years, in bands such as VOORHEES, THE HORROR, JOHN HOLMES, DEAD PETS, SEX MANIACS, GEOFFREY OI!COTT and many many more.
JADED EYES - Hatespeak 7" (Ltd. 300)
ADED EYES are back, tempting us with two more amazing slabs of melodic gritty punk - this is the band you always wanted to be in, fusing the sounds of US hardcore punk with its UK melodic counterpart - part DAG NASTY, part GOVERNMENT ISSUE, part RUTS, part DAMNED, part HDQ, but completely JADED EYES! - A corelease with Serial Bowl Records.
SUBSTANDARD - Discography LP
SUBSTANDARD was a UK Anarcho Punk band from Nottingham and well known for their manic live performance and outrageous speed in their style of songwriting... A shredding thrash metallic "punk" soundtrack to support a strong punk political message spitted out by pissed off dual vocals...

You know, we consider ourselves professionals here in the horror game. We take our job seriously and that means sometimes looking into the belly of the beast: the most grotesque of the grotesque, things that will keep you awake at night. With that in mind, we're kicking off Season 5 with what may be the ultimate horror film. It's 2003's "Love Actually."
We've never done another rom-com, so instead just go listen to the episode we did on the rom-dram (?) "Days of Thunder." It's Episode 76, labeled "???? (1989)."
Happy holidays, pals. As always, we love you.
In our FIFTH annual holiday episode, we're tacking the 2017 Christmas-adjacent horror film "Better Watch Out." You can watch this one on Netflix and if you're at all thinking about it, watch it before you listen to this episode. Special topics for your consideration include: being sold a comedy bill of goods on a movie, the best way to greet one's family at the holidays, hot takes on sweaters, lessons in German from a person who does not speak any German and the "Die Hard" debate settled once and for all.
2014: Episode 9- "Silent Night, Deadly Night"
Can't get enough of the Universal monsters? Check out Episode Check out Episode 94- "The Bride of Frankenstein," Episode 135- "Creature from the Black Lagoon" and Episode 148- The Wolf Man." Bonus! "Creature" features another excellent guest, our friend Emily.
Carly Rae Jepson- "Call Me Maybe (karaoke version)"
After a few weeks of the horror equivalent of junk food (except like, not even good junk food like Doritos, bad junk food like pizza with hot dogs in the crust), we decided to detox with a beautiful horror classic: the 1976 Brian DePalma/Stephen King film "Carrie." Special topics for your consideration include: god's little punishments, concern about John Travolta's basic abilities, the magic of Piper Laurie, prom talk/tuxedo talk and sultry Jesus.
Can't get enough DePalma? Top off with Episode 13- "Phantom of the Paradise" and Episode 27- "Sisters." Let's not forget about Stephen King! We've discussed a TON of his movies so please just listen to my favorite of our King episodes, Episode 66- "Thinner."


The feet is one of the most abused structures in the body but it doesn't get the time and care it deserves. And continued negligence could lead to serious foot injuries. The first signs of a foot injury includes chronic pain. When this happens simple activities such as walking or standing becomes difficult. But this doesn't need to happen. Following simple foot care habits can go a long way in preventing foot injuries. To learn more about proper foot care, consult a podiatrist. The doctors at Foot and Ankle Centers of North Houston are podiatrists who specialize in helping people suffering with disorders of the foot and ankle.
Routine hygiene. It is the most basic way of foot care. Wash and dry your feet thoroughly on a daily basis. Ensure that you also clean in between your toes and keep your toenails properly trimmed and short.
Moisturize. In an instance where your feet become dry or you can observe dryness and cracking, use a foot moisturizer. Avoid applying moisturizer in between your toes. Once cream and lotion are applied on long periods of time, they can cause bacterial and fungal growth. If moisturizer is placed between your toes, it will allow the skin to soften too much.
Shoes. Make sure that you have the correct size when you are picking out a pair of shoes. They should be snug, but definitely not too tight. Loose shoes may also cause foot problems. If you want to purchase a new pair of shoes, it is best if you buy them at the later part of the day since your feet has swelled and settled at its fullest size during this time.
Avoid wearing high-heeled shoes or flip flops often. Instead, look for shoes that are great and good for your feet. You will know a good pair of shoes if they pad the soles of your feet and if they support your arches and ankles. Shoes certainly make a difference. Shoes should not show signs of wear and tear and they should provide good support for your arches and over-all shoes.
Socks. If you are wearing closed-toe shoes, it is important that you accompany it with socks. They absorb moisture and sweat from your feet especially during summer time. Without it, fungal problems and athlete's foot may occur due to the build-up of sweat in a closed-toe shoe.
If you want to prevent foot pain and ankle pain, proper foot care is the simplest and cheapest way of prevention. At Foot and Ankle Centers of North Houston with six offices located in North Houston, TX, we specialize in helping people with foot and ankle disorders. To schedule an appointment, call 281-444-4114.

The policy against the health crisis, announced last Thursday and detailed in drops, coincides with China's reopening and Fear of new outbreak of Covid-19.
On Sunday, Thailand's Civil Aviation Department indicated it had modified one point of the measures at the last minute. Passengers who cannot prove their vaccination with documents will have to undergo testing To detect the virus upon arrival.

You should always want your day in court, and it is your right. There are couple of things that can happen – first the officer who cited you could fail to appear in court for your hearing. If this happens, the judge won't have a choice but to dismiss the charges and refund your bail.
The second alternative is that the citing officer appears. At this point you can either plead guilty or not guilty and provide an explanation for what happened. This is when the experienced lawyers at Fix-A-Ticket will come in extremely handy. Don't do this by yourself if you really want to beat the jaywalking ticket.
We consider several factors in your defense. What was the line of sight of the officer? Were they far away? What time of day was it? Day or night? How was the weather? What were the traffic conditions? There might have been cars in the citing officer's line of sight. Were there any photographs that prove your defense?
Fix-A-Ticket knows that the best defense is putting the burden on the police officer and the prosecution. Hopefully you didn't make a scene such that there is no way the officer could forget you. Not knowing the law is not a defense. Police in Los Angeles and all over California are really looking out for pedestrian safety and that means that the chances of getting a jaywalking ticket or pedestrian ticket have increased. If you get such a ticket, call the lawyers at Fix-A-Ticket for a free consultation about how to defend yourself.

MELIAH RAGE "Before the Kill" details and pre-order.
As anybody familiar with Metal On Metal Records knows, we're not a label specializing in releasing lost recordings from the '80s or '90s (we've had only one exception so far, BITTER END "Have a Nice Death!"). But presented with some really interesting material from a band we've been working with for several years, we couldn't say "no". One day in the spring last year, MELIAH RAGE founder/guitarist, Anthony Nichols, found in his attic a rehearsal tape from 1986, when they still played without a band name and with another vocalist. The energy emanating from this recording, the sheer enthusiasm pouring out with every note, and this special, exciting vibe of a young band playing their first songs (and being very tight at that!), all led to the decision it should not stay on that tape and our hard drives only. It deserved to be heard, even just for the 4 never re-recorded songs. It showed a bit more US power and classic metal face of the band, and it's also interesting to hear the other 4 songs, which later became MELIAH RAGE classics, sung by a different vocalist, a very talented Mark Mastroianni. Anthony kept digging in his boxes and found also the very first MELIAH RAGE demo tape with 4 songs from 1987. The quality was decent enough, so we decided to add it to the rehearsal, and the compilation was completed with 3 live tracks from 1988 and "Kill to Survive" song from the band's second demo. All audio has been digitally remastered, and in the booklet you will find many archival photos and an in-depth interview focused exclusively on the earliest period of the band's existence. The compilation, titled "Before the Kill", will be out on August 31st, and needless to say, should be avoided by those who value good recording and production above everything else, but is a must for all collectors who are enthusiasts of US metal from the '80s.
Check out the promo clip for "Before the Kill" album, featuring fragments of two tracks: a pre-MELIAH RAGE song "The Eagle" and MELIAH RAGE "The Pack" from their first 1987 demo. You can watch it on YouTube at this location or here:
Two songs from the album are available for streaming from our YouTube channel (pre-MELIAH RAGE "Beginning of the End" here and a music video for "Kill to Survive" in its first 1987 demo version here), and from the Bandcamp player on the MELIAH RAGE page, where we put additionally one live track from 1988 "Bates Motel". The compilation track list is as follows:
pre-MELIAH RAGE rehearsal 1986:
1. Misunderstood
2. Beginning of the End
3. The Eagle
4. Stand Up
5. Warrior Lord
6. Enter the Darkness
7. Fight
8. The Pack

Stranded or floating dolphins: What to do if you see one
Dolphins are dying at an increased rate in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Here's how you can help researchers.

In Mississippi, 130 dead dolphins have been documented this year.
The deaths of dolphins and sea turtles likely tied to fresh water pouring through a La. spillway.
Experts offer tips if coming across a dead or stranded dolphin.
A high number of dolphin deaths in Mississippi has been making headlines for weeks, and experts believe the elevated number is tied to fresh water pouring through the Bonnet Carre Spillway near New Orleans. The water is being released to protect the levee system from the flooded Mississippi River and it drains through Lake Pontchartrain into the Mississippi Sound.
But Mississippi isn't alone in experiencing higher than normal dolphin deaths. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, more than 260 deaths from east Louisiana to the Florida panhandle have been reported since February, which is three times higher than normal. In Mississippi alone, 130 dead dolphins have been documented this year.
NOAA has declared the elevated number of dolphin deaths in the northern Gulf of Mexico to be classified as an Unusual Mortality Event. (Photo: Institute for Marine Mammal Studies)
Finding the cause, or causes, of death is important and Moby Solangi, president and executive director of the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies in Gulfport, said people need to report any dead or stranded dolphin they encounter.
"It is absolutely important," Solangi said. "Without that we can't conduct an investigation."
To aid in the investigation, which NOAA has classified as an Unusual Mortality Event, the agency has issued a list of recommendations to follow if someone encounters a dead or live-stranded dolphin.
What to do if you encounter a floating or stranded dolphin:
• Don't push the animal back out to sea. Stranded marine mammals may be sick or injured. Returning animals to sea delays examination and treatment and often results in the animal re-stranding in worse condition.
If the animal returns to the water on its own, don't attempt to interact with it (swim with, ride, etc.).
• Put human safety above animal safety. If conditions are dangerous, do not attempt to approach the animal.
• Stay with the animal until rescuers arrive, but use caution. Marine mammals can be dangerous and/or carry disease. Keep a safe distance from the head and tail. Do not touch the animal and avoid inhaling the animal's expired air.
• If the animal is alive, keep its skin moist and cool. Splash water over its body. Use wet towels to help keep the skin moist and prevent sunburn.
• If the animal is alive, don't cover or obstruct the blowhole. Try to keep sand and water away from the blowhole.
• Keep crowds away and noise levels down. This will help to avoid causing further stress to the animal.
• Report all dead marine mammals, even if they are decomposed.
• Keep pets away from the live or dead marine mammals.
• Don't collect any parts (tissues, teeth, bones, or gear, etc.) from dead animals. They are still covered by the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
Solangi added that people should stay away from dead dolphins and not touch them for forensic reasons.
"In human terms it would be considered a crime scene," Solangi said.
To report a dead dolphin or sea turtle
To report a dead dolphin or sea turtle in Mississippi to the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies, call 1-888-767-3657 (1-888-SOS-DOLPHIN). Dead dolphins in other Gulf states should be reported to Southeast Marine Mammal Stranding Network at 877-942-5343 (877-WHALE HELP).

Illinois General Assembly: HB2148 Rule 19(a) / Re-referred to Rules Committee
by Local Labs News Service | Mar 30, 2019
The following action was taken on March 29 in the House on House bill HB2148 ("mhddaa-dev disabil worker wage"): "Rule 19(a) / Re-referred to Rules Committee."
The Rules Committees is a powerful standing committee in the House controlled by the majority. All legislation is assigned to the Rules Committee as a kind of legislative filter that sorts the more-than-6,000 bills introduced each year. The committee considers the legislation and often assigns it to other committees in order to be heard by other lawmakers. Sometimes, legislation dies in the Rules Committee if the committee decides it does not merit further consideration.
In the event that a committee fails to report to the House on a bill by applicable deadlines, it is automatically re-referred to the Rules Committee according to House rule 19(a). This is what happened with this bill.
The bill, as it was introduced in the House by Rep. Robyn Gabel (D-18) on Feb. 6, "amends the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Administrative Act," according to the General Assembly website.
The following house representatives also co-sponsored the bill: Carol Ammons (D-103), Mark Batinick (R-97), Jonathan Carroll (D-57), Kelly M. Cassidy (D-14), Terra Costa Howard (D-48), Anthony DeLuca (D-80), Daniel Didech (D-59), La Shawn K. Ford (D-8), Will Guzzardi (D-39), Elizabeth Hernandez (D-24), Yehiel M. Kalish (D-16), Stephanie A. Kifowit (D-84), Theresa Mah (D-2), Anna Moeller (D-43), Martin J. Moylan (D-55), Michelle Mussman (D-56), Anne Stava-Murray (D-81), Karina Villa (D-49), Grant Wehrli (R-41), Emanuel Chris Welch (D-7), David A. Welter (R-75) and Melissa Conyears-Ervin (D-10).
The table below shows a history of actions for this bill through March 29.

The news today that ITV have issued a press release announcing their plans for a televised debate between the party leaders, whilst not addressing contingency plans in the event of multiple no shows to such a debate, is not a huge surprise for a number of reasons.
Firstly, few things happen in any sphere of modern life without a press release or similar to announce it. One gets this a lot in political speeches. Where the text of the speech is given to the press beforehand so it can make the news bulletins and someone can say to camera how someone is expected to say this. And then someone back in the studio can discuss with someone else how something that hasn't actually happened might affect things.
The benefit in doing this is that if the something is badly received in the media, then it can be claimed to but an exploratory idea or similar and ditched. It's called doing a 'reverse ferret'.
Secondly, received political wisdom has it that any meetings with the public are not something that can be carefully controlled by party media managers. Examples of this going wrong and becoming the story are both legion and salutary, as happened today when Tim Notasin was cornered on a walkabout by a pensioner angry at the Lib Dem's stance on Europe. Although the most shocking example of this was 'bigotgate', when the then Prime Minister Gordon Brown was recorded calling someone a 'bigot'.
Thirdly, this represents a communication echo chamber, made up of the media and the politicians; inasmuch as the media report something and the politicians respond or vice-versa. Crucially, the mainstream media know the rules and will abide by them to ensure continued access.
And whilst I've got your undivided attention….
Two more things. It was widely reported today that Teresa May had returned from an audience with the queen to dissolve parliament. Am I alone in thinking that it must've been the worst 'An Audience With…." in ITV's history? Normally the format of an 'An Audience With…' is that of a well loved celebrity who shares anecdotes and generally entertains a celebrity audience. The queen may be many things, but I doubt entertaining is one of them.
And is Teresa May turning in Teresa MayCarthy, seeing dark forces seeking to undermine democracy by exerting undue influence?


HCIA – World Hearing Day. On World Hearing Day, the Hearing Care Industry Association (HCIA) welcomes the Australian Government's focus on hearing health and calls on Government to declare hearing health a National Health Priority.
HCIA believes good policy should be evidence based and therefore funded the Report, "Social and Economic Cost of Hearing Health in Australia – June 2017" prepared by Deloitte Access Economics.


Werewolf by Night (birth name Jacob Russoff, legal name Jack Russell) is a fictional Character, an antiheroic werewolf in the Marvel Comics universe. The Werewolf by Night (usually referred to by other characters simply as the Werewolf) first appeared in Marvel Spotlight - More about Werewolf by Night Character Review...keep reading !!
Jack Russell is a descendent of the mystically altered offshoot of humans known as Lycanthropes. Under moonlight Jack transforms into a werewolf, a large, powerful form which is a hybrid of human and wolf; in this form, he possesses the best qualities of both creatures, retaining his full human intellect and reasoning ability while gaining the proportionate physical advantages of a nearly 7-foot-tall (2.1 m) wolf. In this form, he possesses superhuman strength, speed, stamina, durability, agility, and reflexes. He possesses enhanced senses, including superhumanly acute senses of hearing, smell, and taste, and can see beyond the spectrum of light visible to normal humans into both the ultraviolet and infrared ranges. His perceptions of infrared in particular is so acute that he can judge an individual's physical and mental state simply by observing the patterns of heat in that person's body. He has razor-sharp teeth and claws able to rend light metals.
The werewolf is resistant to many forms of conventional injury and virtually impossible to kill by conventional means; though he can be severely wounded, he recovers from non-fatal wounds ten times faster than a human would. He is vulnerable to magical attack and like all supernatural creatures he can be killed by weapons made of silver, due to its inherent mystical "purity." At one point he had little control over his werewolf form, which was becoming more bestial and savage, and he likely has even less control under a full moon.
Although at one time his transformations were governed by the lunar cycle, Russell gained full mastery over his condition and became no longer limited in any way by lunar phases, enabling him to transform at any time of the day or night. This transformation is painless and completely under his control at all times; he can transform his entire body or an isolated portion he chooses. Sunlight caused him minor irritation, and while his transformations were entirely voluntary, he may experience an increased urge to transform during the full moon. It was unclear if he could control whether wounds he inflicted turned others into werewolves.
Over the course of his adventures, Russell became something of a novice magic user, often using spells and enchanted objects to aid him in specific scenarios.
A film version of Werewolf by Night written by Robert Nelson Jacobs was announced in 2005.


Whatever the problem is, coffee is the solution.
And now, onto the next order of business.
Bragging. Cause seriously, how many of you can say you walked into your doctor's office - no appointment - and he called you back and reviewed your scan disk with you and your 6 year old on the spot? Anyone? It was practically drive thru service. This is a good man. I love him. I can't help it.
Still, the official report is not yet in - I have a call into my main onc - but my #1 phone-call-returner aka Dr. Drive Thru says he did not see anything too worrisome. There is some thickening near my aorta. I'm too afraid to google what that could mean as far as permanent damage from radiation, so for now I'm going to pretend I never heard him say that, and just relax with a cup of coffee.
Plan for the day as we wait out the return phone call with the official word? Use up our superfluous peach supply, fresh from Tuesday's picking, now ripe and ready to be used in peach cobbler, roasted peach and coconut popsicles, stewed peaches (to be eaten over yogurt), and this almond crisped peach deal from smitten kitchen.

The Impact of Socio-Cultural Changes on Fashion 2020-2021
Education Events, Events, Trends
Philip Fimmano, Partner and Director at TREND UNION, a leader in compiling trends from around the world since 1986, spoke to our crowd from the Underfashion Club at the Harvard Club of New York about "The Impact of Socio-Cultural Changes on Fashion 2020-2021." Socio-cultural trends have had an impact on all aspects of fashion, from sustainability to color trends, fabrics/materials and accessories.
The overarching theme of this educational event was the idea of brown as a color and a metaphor for society getting closer to the earth and the diversity of people. Philip linked the color to the way we will be living in the future. Brown is more in-tune with the current period after 30 years of black, transforming any item into something luxurious, modern, and less aggressive. The consumer wants to be different, focused on ecology, and casual. Browns and neutrals soften the edges on the body when worn.
A key factor to consider regarding the future of fashion is the increasingly conscious consumer. Their awareness of brands and consideration of ecology when choosing materials directly influences the way businesses should source and market their products. The modern consumer is more focused and specific about what they buy, steering clear of disposable fashion. Dying is being done in sustainable ways, with natural pigments from organic materials, moving away from synthetic processes.
There's been a revival of basics in fashion that have become elevated by designers that are keen on sophisticated details. Basics are for casual people, particularly younger generations like Millennials and Gen Z. Normcore is based on the idea of blending in in an almost "boring" fashion. In contrast, there is also boldness, which gravitates towards larger volumes.
Philip Fimmano shared upcoming trends for fashion in 2020-2021. Winter 2020 fashion will include lots of frilly materials and transparency in new neutrals. It will be a comforting season with a combination of natural fibers and synthetics with brighter pastels expressing new neutrals, providing coziness and a new pleasure in dressing up. Summer 2021 fashion will be focused on green-mindedness and trends will include florals, pastels, and all kinds of greens and foliage. Pastels will have a more milky quality to them and shades of green express an uplifting energy.
Natural fibers and high-tech materials are a key trend. There will be a return to satin finishes, neoprene, and metallic shine as well as interesting new pastel tones. Knitwear and bigger volumes including softer finishes will be seen, especially in intimates. Sleeve details will help the consumer find the fun in dressing up.
Natural and organic, non-polluted places in the countryside are gaining popularity due to affordability and quality of life. There's no need to be in big cities since the internet allows us to be everywhere at all times. The separation from politics and outside distractions is coined in softwear, which focuses on the cozy lifestyle. Cuddles are channeled through comforting, teddybear-like materials in sophisticated shades of brown. Faux furs in outrageous colors and modified animal prints show a connectedness to nature while emphasizing that the garments aren't made of real animals. Blankets have become a key fashion accessory for the home and for picnics, and are even seen on runways. Fluidity and ruffle effects will be observed in clothing such as dresses, lingerie, and even expressed as a singular tuck in satin-like materials.
Vintage linen and lighter colors like whites and creams are part of the cozy look. Bohemian, baroque, vintage satin sheens and neutrals will be seen. The idea of vintage is more than a color story. It is melancholic. Rough and expressive ancient-looking textiles and archaic design language will trend. It'll be wilder, with fringes and hairier textures. Colors are warmer with spice accents, such as cinnamon. Earthy motifs that look like petals and twigs will be seen in wovens.
Constructivism is more graphic, including color blocking and brighter colors. Neutrals can be brought to life with fuscia or red colors, a key color in the winter season. Khaki and olive will be trending in menswear, with more optimistic and graphic ways of combining things. 2020 implements motifs from the 1920s, inspired by escapism and a yearning for some glamour.

REVIEW: 'Cold Pursuit' is a great dark comedy
There's no doubt most, including myself, saw the trailer for "Cold Pursuit" and 'thought here we go again.' Since he appeared in 2009's "Taken," Liam Neeson has become somewhat of an action star, mostly in the taking revenge variety. In that recent filmography, the flicks have been hit or miss.
Thankfully, I can report "Cold Pursuit" is one of the good ones.
The movie takes place in a small Colorado town, known mostly for its heavy snowfall and ski resorts. The main character is Nels Coxman (Neeson), a snowplow driver who was just named citizen of the year. He's thrown into the world of crime, though, when his son is caught in the crossfire of a drug dealing mishap at an airport.
With anger in his heart and revenge on his mind, Nels decides to go after the criminal enterprise that had his son killed. In doing so, it sets off a chain reaction that starts a turf war in the rural Colorado region.
"Cold Pursuit" is less an action movie and more like a dark comedy with some thriller elements thrown in, and wow, is it entertaining as hell. The main story remains Nels' quest for revenge, and there's no doubt some of the ways he takes out the henchmen are satisfying to watch.
However, the absolute best parts of "Pursuit" are the bizarre, odd, and even comical character moments dotted along the film. The main villain of the whole picture, for example, is a complete health nut who is hyper-focused on raising his son with organic products.
These unique character beats are most noticeable during conversations between a pair, such as two henchmen chatting about life before a hit or the town's patrol cops discussing local crime. There's a nonchalant, same day, every day attitude these characters carry that makes these moments work.
As usual, Neeson is reliable in this type of role, considering it's another character out for blood. Yet Neeson plays it with some subtle comedic beats, since the character is still just a snowplow driver with no real experience in the underground world of crime.
While "Cold Pursuit" is a strong movie with some rather funny moments, the writing isn't as good as some others in the genre. When compared to material from, say, the Coen Brothers or Quentin Tarantino, the movie falls a bit short.
As a whole, though, it's worth checking out. There's entertainment value here, and it can keep an audience engaged the whole way through. 3.8 out of 5.

Benz, Matthias; Frey, Bruno S (2003). The Value of Autonomy: Evidence from the Self-Employed in 23 Countries. Working paper series / Institute for Empirical Research in Economics No. 173, University of Zurich.
"The self-employed are substantially more satisfied with their worknthan employed persons. We document this relationship for 23 countries andnshow that the higher job satisfaction can directly be attributed to thengreater autonomy that self-employed persons enjoy. ""Being your own boss""nseems to provide non-pecuniary benefits from work that point to thenexistence of procedural utility: autonomy is valued beyond outcomes as angood decision-making procedure. The results hold not only for WesternnEuropean, North American and former communist Eastern European countries,nbut largely also for countries with a non-western cultural background."


Following the first World War, Germany was in a state of disrepair. After three years of incredible hyperinflation, political riots regarding crooked elections, and anger with the stagnation and degradation of the Weimar Republic, the German people required an escape from their bleak reality.
During World War One, the film industry started gaining prominence, undergoing a complex transition from short one-reel programs into feature-length films. With new-age techniques, the influence of Hollywood, and film encapsulating a newfound, visual art form, film was advancing and beginning to bring audiences in en masse. Whether as art or pure entertainment, the rise of mass-cinema presented the citizens of the Weimar Republic with the necessary means of alluding reality through escapism.
With the rise of artistic cinema, through the incorporation of visually-distorting film techniques and the influence of the German expressionist movement, films began not just alluding but transcending reality. Utilizing this modern form of entertainment and it's all-encompassing fascination of the viewer, filmmakers began exploring the realms of science fiction — creating political commentaries and historical narratives through the lens of futuristic adventurism. From 1918 to 1933, one of these filmmakers was the Austrian-born Fritz Lang.
Writing countless art-films with his wife, Thea von Harbou, Lang would enter the realm of science fiction, pushing the visual craft while remaining socially critical of the Weimar Republic. Metropolis, at its core, is a story of Germany's power struggles during the 1920s, set within an urban, dystopian future, wherein the vast gulf between social classes is contrasted between the Freder, the wealthy son of the city's ruler, and Maria, a poor, industrial, subservient worker (one that the likes of Freder and his class benefits from).
Between these characters and the plights they face in attempting to bridge their social classes together, the film explores the extreme poverty during the Weimar economic collapse,the political conflicts that remained unresolved, and the consistent fear for the future of Germany and its reconstruction (with the Communist and Capitalist worlds enclosing around them). The metropolis itself is aesthetically thriving, with technology and industry prospering, yet the viewer is shown a state that is procured by greed, power, and corruption. What we, the viewer, see is the grandeur of the future — the idealism of bustling, progressive life and urban-environment — that is nothing more than a façade, fueled by the illusions of a society structured on inequality and oppression.
The film focuses on this disconnect between the ruling elites and the submissive workers as seen through the eyes of Freder. Although the son of the wealthy elite, Freder is meant to represent the common man of the Weimar Republic. He has witnessed the strife, horrors, and pride of the workers lives, the power struggle and oppression initiated by the elites, and the growth of machinery, along with the subservient and horror it brings, cast within this Metropolis. He is nothing more than the representation for each movie-goer within that theater: those that lived through the terror that was the first World War, that have lived through the seemingly unending hyperinflation of 1921 – 1924, and that have had to deal with political frenzy wrought within the Weimar Republic.
While this film can be regarded as transcending reality, for its plot based 100 years into the future from the film's release, it is an accurate portrayal of the state of affairs within the Weimar Republic. Lang and Harbou created a social commentary that speaks for the citizens (the viewers), those affected by the political spectra and the misfortunes of Germany's past and present. The unfortunate truth is that the film would be skewed and misused for propaganda by the NSDAP in the 1930s (as often done by both the US govt. and Soviet govt. in and after this time); however the political commentary of the film, along with its stunning visual techniques, still hold up to this day.
