When Dr. Mark Schlissel, a physician-scientist, became president of the University of Michigan in July 2014, he laid out a sweeping vision in his inaugural address – to "commit to research and teaching that meet the most pressing needs of our global society" and to nurture a broad and diverse community in the process. It's an ambitious agenda, at a time when state support of higher education has flagged, and rising costs have made college access and affordability a pressing concern for students and their families.
Schlissel recently sat down with Bridge Editor David Zeman, staff writer Nancy Derringer and Center for Michigan (and former U-M regent) founder Phil Power to discuss issues of interest to the university and its community. The following Q-and-A has been edited and condensed.
BRIDGE: Let's start by talking about diversity. Do you have any specific plans for increasing the number of African-American students attending – and especially graduating from – U-M? What is the most innovative way, given the restraints of Proposal 2 (the 2006 state constitutional amendment that banned consideration of race in university admissions), that you can use to accomplish that?
It's extremely important to us as a community, and to me personally, that we build a learning and teaching and researching and staffing community that looks like the state we serve. We can't achieve academic excellence without tapping into the richness and diversity of the society we're embedded in.
We start with the notion, supported by evidence, that talent is pretty uniformly distributed throughout the population. There's no credible evidence that children growing up in poor communities are less talented than children growing up in wealthy communities. Our challenge, as educators wanting to build a community of talented students, is finding ways to reach out and identify where talent is.
There's a long history of relying, or perhaps over-relying, on standardized test scores. Standardized tests are a legitimate measure of how a student does on a standardized test (and) there are tons of data correlating socioeconomic status and how well you do on them. We need to be able to look more deeply, to use criteria that evaluate every applicant in a holistic way, in the context of what opportunities they have in their environment, how they've taken advantage of them, what traits of character and grit and stick-to-it-tiveness they've shown, how they've optimized their ability to function in the community they're in. And that's what we do, all around the state of Michigan.
We're trying to figure out better ways to do this all the time.
HAIL to the lower-income applicant
One of our big challenges here is, I think a lot of talented kids of lesser means don't apply because they're scared to. They don't think they can survive in what appears from the outside to be an elite, wealthy community. So we're trying to increase the number of applicants and create more socioeconomic diversity through this mechanism.
We've started a scholarship program called the HAIL scholarship – (for) high-achieving involved leaders. We've partnered with 257 high schools around the state, asking teachers to identify their best students. We're looking for low-income students. We've collected 1,000 of them, and we have another group of 1,000 who are a control group.
These are high-school seniors that we think may be talented enough to do well at U-M, based on recommendations from school leaders, and (there's a) subset who are from lower socioeconomic groups. We invite them to apply; we proactively reach out. We send them a voucher that assures them they won't have to pay to apply. We send information about how to fill out the forms. And we tell them that if they get accepted – and they have to go through the process just like anybody else – we'll guarantee them at least a four-year, full-tuition scholarship.
The second 1,000 kids are sent a letter inviting them to apply, and that's it. That's the control group.
After a couple of years, we'll look to see what kind of students we're getting out of these two groups, who follows through with the application process, and of the kids who get accepted, which ones say yes.
We're not allowed to use race or ethnicity in deciding whom to admit, but what we can do is make aggressive efforts with getting them to say yes once we've admitted them. We're also working hard with all our students, not just the HAIL scholars, to get financial aid decisions, and admission decisions, out at the same time.
BRIDGE: What does that cure?
Imagine being a family that makes $35,000 a year. Your kid is a sponge for knowledge, they'd be so thrilled to come to Michigan, they get the thick envelope and dad looks and says, "$14,000 in tuition?" And he looks at his two other kids, and he cries.
We're going to have to change the way we represent our financial aid, too, because most people don't get it. If you come from a family that makes less than $70,000 a year, U-M is free. You don't pay tuition. I really want to convince students all around the state that of course they're good enough to come to the University of Michigan. And of course they can afford it. That's part of our efforts to diversify.
We're really trying to get the message out, all across the state, that this is their public university, whether you're in the nice suburbs of Detroit, or Grand Rapids, or up in the Midland area, or the Upper Peninsula. We find a way to make it work for your family. Your only part is to fill out the darn application and get in.
BRIDGE: There are certainly those who would like U-M to accept fewer kids from out of state. They see it as a money grab, denying many more Michigan students than are currently accepted their opportunity. What's the argument for keeping it where it is?
The current freshman class is about 42 or 43 percent out-of-state. I certainly think we shouldn't exceed half. But it's really a juggling act. Geography is a type of diversity. Having a kid from California, from New York, from Florida and from Texas in your living suite? There are big differences between those parts of the country.
If the state had the wherewithal and will to bring their contribution to education up where it used to be, then the university would have the ability to look harder and deeper and broader across the state. We're getting slightly less than $300 million a year to the Ann Arbor campus, and that's roughly similar to what the Ann Arbor campus got in 1997, not adjusted for inflation.
In the era where higher ed was a shared value for society, and a common good, 60-70 percent of the cost of education was being paid by the state.
'Magical thinking'
BRIDGE: Some are pushing back on that argument, and talk about the bloat in administration. Which brings us to affordability. The Center for Michigan's last engagement campaign found significant concern among state residents around the issue of affordability. Gov. Snyder has said he believes Michigan higher-ed institutions need to be more efficient and customer-focused. With the legislature we have, more money for higher ed is probably not forthcoming. What do you think of Snyder's suggestions?
The idea that the public shouldn't have to invest in higher education is magical thinking. It sounds great, administrative bloat is a wonderful thing to point to, but our rate of growth in the administration is less than our rate of growth in faculty, less than our rate of growth of students. We've cut tens of millions of dollars from the administrative side of the house. And we can keep going, and we are.
The surprising things that drive costs are something we should think about. I'm in a global competitive market for faculty. People didn't bat an eye when we had to pay for (football) Coach Harbaugh, and they shouldn't bat an eye when we have to pay for an outstanding physicist, or English professor, or visual artist.
And we house perhaps a third of our students in university-owned housing, and the vast majority of others live in pretty darn close proximity to campus. We're responsible for lots of aspects of students' lives that we wouldn't be if they were living at home. We've made large and increasing investments in student psychological services. We have the challenges of sexual misconduct.
A lot of our learning goes on outside the classroom. So it's not just students sitting in a lecture and writing a paper, it's students sitting in a cafeteria, arguing and discussing. It's clubs, and programs. So these things have costs. We have a huge physical infrastructure. That's our responsibility to maintain. Technology costs keep going up. To think that the public can get a world-class education for the same contribution the public as a whole was willing to make 20 years ago is magical thinking.

Defending research universities
BRIDGE: You mentioned several times the research aspect of U-M. As you know, places like Wisconsin and North Carolina have conservative legislatures that want to cut back on that. There's a notion that, you've got good professors, so put them in front of students. It's an appealing argument; we're paying for our kids to go there, we want Professor Famous Guy.
Well, they are getting Professor Famous Guy. All our faculty teach, the vast majority teach undergraduates. We use very relatively low numbers of adjunct faculty. Higher education in the United States is a remarkable thing; we lead the world. One of its most remarkable features is how many different types of institutions there are, everything from community colleges and trade schools up to four-year colleges, all the way to research universities – big schools, small schools, religious schools, schools that use the great books only. So this diversity of educational opportunity is amazing.
Parents ask me what's special about U-M, why they should send their kid to a big research university? When you learn at a research university, you're learning from the faculty who are defining what the frontiers of knowledge are, people who are framing the questions that will define human ambition and what we'll know in the future. It's a very different style of learning, and you also have the opportunity to intellectually engage with these faculty.
In addition, at a research university, students get to work with scholars in their research. I ran an immunology lab for 20 years, and I'd always have undergrads in the lab. It was great – they'd learn, they'd produce science, they'd test out careers. They'd learn that learning isn't just the receipt of information, it's thinking, framing questions and being creative with information.
Wisconsin and other states that are going to an extreme – Texas has argued to do this – they're heading for long-term trouble. They're headed for lesser-competitive generations of students. Who else does discovery research in our society? The companies aren't doing it anymore; there's no value proposition. So if it's not research universities that are driving the knowledge economy, the state's really going to suffer.
BRIDGE: So the false premise in what they're saying is that it's a zero-sum game between being in the classroom and being a research university?
The nature of research is such that it enriches teaching. And the research itself provides opportunities for students to participate in discovery of knowledge and creation in interesting, novel ways. It's not for everybody, but it's why you come to U-M.
Alcohol and its disruptions
BRIDGE: People are still talking about the fiasco at Treetops (where a fraternity weekend resulted in extensive damage to a northern Michigan resort). A lot of people in the Greek system seem to think you want to put them on a leash or shut them down. What are your plans for reining them in and curbing their worst excesses, while still capitalizing on the good things they do?
The Greek institutions are part of Michigan's culture, and many universities' culture. About 20 percent of our students are members of a fraternity or sorority. It's a significant, but not predominant, part of the university residential experience. Greek life isn't the only place these problems exist, and a lot is fueled by alcohol, and perhaps other things, and that's what keeps me up at night. It happens outside of Greek life, too, so I don't want to give the false impression that if one "fixed" Greek life, then students would be safe and no one would be at risk from alcohol toxicity.
The second thing to say is, as I've learned more about Greek life, there are huge advantages to those who participate. We're a big university, and one of the keys to success for students is to find a way to make it feel smaller. Fraternities and sororities give kids a sense of belonging in a smaller universe that gives them the security to go out and deal with the other 43,000 students here. Their academic averages are higher than the campus as a whole. Their service programs, volunteerism, is higher than the typical student's. There are a lot of good things about Greek life.

I was absolutely mortified and angered by (the Treetops incident). I was incredibly upset by it. I think it was a wakeup call for Greek life. Multiple Greek organizations were sanctioned, some were not allowed to recruit, which is the death penalty for them. We'll see what happens. If they can clean up their acts, they can start recruiting again in subsequent years.
Not just as a result of that, we've begun more intense efforts on campus to work with the leadership of the Greek houses, with alumni, with the home organizations, to curb the risk behavior and reinforce these positive things. One of the things I learned is, the students in the (houses) are sophomores. They do their pledge business freshman year, they live in the house sophomore year, and usually juniors and seniors are off in the community, living in private houses with friends. The president of the fraternity is often a sophomore, so you're asking a sophomore to be the responsible person in a residential community full of other sophomores feeling their independence. It's a lot.
BRIDGE: Do you think that culture's really changing?
I think we have the attention of the Greek community, but I don't know the extent to which behavior is changing. All the fraternities and sororities have to undergo additional education in alcohol and sexual misconduct and peer intervention. Many are being trained as sobriety monitors. Our campus police has begun more closely collaborating with the Ann Arbor Police Department, because they're not on university property. I think an effort to stop 18- to 21-year-olds from violating the law (with, say, an open beer) is doomed to failure. But I would hope we can develop an enforcement mechanism to prevent students from drinking so much that their health is in peril.
BRIDGE: So there's a determined shift in policy from minor-in-possession enforcement to binge drinking?
What the public-safety people will do is look for people who appear unsafe because they've been drinking. Having a beer and walking down the street may be illegal, but as an enforcement matter, it's not the student walking down the street, it's the one lying against a tree and it's 30 degrees and they're wearing a T-shirt and a hat.
(Finally), we're trying something we were loathe to do. For freshmen who've had their second alcohol violation, we're contacting mom and dad. We debated this because we want students to seek help when they run into trouble. And we were concerned they might be less likely to seek help if we thought we would call their parents. But the problem's not getting any better, so we want to try new things. So far, we've notified about 120 parents.
We're looking at best practices elsewhere, and evidence-based approaches. I'm a biology guy, so I have a pretty low threshold for trying something new, measuring whether it's working, continuing it at scale if it is, shutting it down if it isn't, and trying something different.

I think U-M is lucky to get this current president. U-M gave me a need-based scholarship years ago and even a scholarship to help me with my internship in Washington DC. I am still very grateful. I worked as a janitor to pay for my Catholic high school tutition. Then I worked in a factory to raise money for college, so I went to U-M Dearborn as part of its second freshman class. When I transferred to Ann Arbor, I roomed in a sorority in Junior year and pledged later that semester. That helped me adjust, but U-M was still pretty hard to get used to for someone from Detroit who didn't have any money. As a result, I struggled in some of my classes because I have always had to do things by myself to get by. It's so easy to get lost in such a large university. Please keep up the good work reaching out to those low-income students who are smart and have so much potential, but don't let them get lost in the system.

The U of Michigan has a great reputation, not only as a Football Powerhouse, but for academic people and products. I would like to see more of a conversation regarding the community both locally to the university and regionally. Today at least there is a whispering of research, development and demonstration (RD&D) centers also called Clusters or Technoparks, that support both alumni and small businesses. These centers that cooperate with the universities are the generators of innovation and tax revenue to governments that support the education system. Activity such as this can be expected. Google has been active too. http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/news/2016/01/19/amazon-inks-office-le... The foundation for growth exists and the leadership at the university administration and within the body of students have a great opportunity. I believe that the future is a bright one.

Mr. Schlissel gives his thoughts on higher education appropriations: "If the state had the wherewithal and will to bring their contribution to education up where it used to be, then the university would have the ability to look harder and deeper and broader across the state. We're getting slightly less than $300 million a year to the Ann Arbor campus, and that's roughly similar to what the Ann Arbor campus got in 1997, not adjusted for inflation. In the era where higher ed was a shared value for society, and a common good, 60-70 percent of the cost of education was being paid by the state." At another point he says: "If you come from a family that makes less than $70,000 a year, U-M is free. You don't pay tuition." So to the extent that the state spends more subsidies on the University of Michigan and that it will effect tuition, the reality is that it would mean a tuition cut for families who make much more than the average family in Michigan. Why should state taxpayers pay more money so the upper-middle-class and above can see slightly lower tuition?
If you come from a family that makes less than $70,000 a year UM is free?!? Has Dr. Schlissel been to his own college's website recently? Families with incomes as low as $20,001 are expected to take out annual $2,500 loans and pay $500 toward costs. Families with incomes of $40,001-$60,000 can expect to contribute $8,308 per year, including $2,500 in federal loans, and a $3,218 family contribution, costs that amount to 14-21 percent of those annual family incomes. Unlike at Harvard, where families with incomes above $150,000 are expected to pay a higher percentage of their incomes than lower income families, University of Michigan's Financial Aid policies require lower income families to contribute a proportionally higher percentage of their annual incomes. In fact, budget data reveal that since 2005 U-M's financial aid spending is up 1.8 percent total while tuition revenues rose 50 percent. Between 2005 and 2014, the University of Michigan's income from tuition and fees rose from $675,392,000 to $1,156,646,746, an increase of $481,254,746—over 10 times the total amount lost from state appropriations over the same period. While I appreciate Nancy's effort to interview Dr. Schlissel, she needed to do her homework beforehand to keep him honest and this interview more than a puff piece.

Trouser features windproof membrane and full fleece lining.
With a waterproof rating of 2000mm, the Sibir 500 trouser provides excellent protection from the rain. We measure a fabric's resistance to a water column, in mm (based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure withstood by the fabric, the more waterproof it is. Components scoring 2000 mm can resist the pressure from 2000 mm of water (which is equivalent to a rain shower lasting two hours).

One thing that makes Celluscience stand apart from its competition is the fact that it comes in a pill form, rather than a lotion. The product was also released by a well know Italian company, Santica Research Laboratory, that is well respected all over the world. With two decades in the skin care industry, Santica Research Laboratory has more than earned an incredible deal of experience assisting men and women in looking their best.
Two different types of Celluscience capsules exist to help men and women overcome cellulite. The first kind is the patented Vascolary capsule that contains extracts of olives, along with other vegetable oils and fish oil. The well known Forticell complex is the other capsule. The second is made up of healthy vitamins and minerals, from Vitamin C to folic acid.
Santica Research Laboratory advises users to take Celluscience three times a day. A person should swallow a pill two different times in the morning, along with a third capsule at bedtime. Taking Celluscience with no food in your stomach seems to be the most effective. Folks should maintain this pill schedule for a year to see the best results on their bodies.
Internet surfers can find all of the information on Celluscience that they'd ever be searching for on the Santica Research Laboratory website. It is assuring to see that they have nothing to hide when it comes to their product, its ingredients and how it benefits its users. Readers can also learn scientific facts about cellulite's origins and the proper treatments to keep it from being seen.
Unlike many products on the market, Celluscience has gone through a great number of scientific testing. It's also certified by a many doctors and health experts. The Celluscience website has been put together nicely, supplying consumers with all of the necessary information, such as all the ingredients, along with in-depth answers to possible questions. Celluscience is a trustworthy product.
Celluscience does have its down points too. First off all, it's pretty costly. A three month supply of Celluscience runs for about $204. And users don't really like take pills three times every day for a year. That's just too long to see maximum results.
Unlike so many anti cellulite products on the cosmetic market, Celluscience is a pill, rather than a lotion. It really seems to work, but has a couple drawbacks. The price is high. And taking the pill three times a day on an empty stomach can get to be annoying. But many customers feel these disadvantages aren't too high to pay if Celluscience actually helps them get rid of unwanted bumps and dents. Perhaps a more cost-effective and quicker-working treatment would be RevitaShape Toning Formula. By massaging the cream into the uneven, dimpled areas of your skin on a daily basis, you can help improve your circulation. RevitaShape lessens bunched up fat caught in connective tissue, making a visual difference in just a couple of weeks.

Q: Solve $\cos x-\sin(2x)=0$ Solve $\cos x-\sin(2x)=0$
I did:
$$\cos x=\color{blue}{\sin(\pi /2-x)}$$
therefore:
$$\color{blue}{\sin(\pi /2-x)}=\sin(2x)$$

Can I do that:??
now to solve only for $\pi/2-x=2x$
so $x=\pi/6+2\pi k$

A: The first step is ok, but for the second we have that
$$\sin A=\sin B\iff A+B=(2k+1)\pi\text{ or }A-B=2k\pi$$
Then, from the equality $\sin(\pi/2-x)=\sin 2x$ we get two sets of solutions:

*

*$\pi/2-x+2x=(2k+1)\pi$

*$2x-(\pi/2-x)=2k\pi$

A: Also, $$\cos x =\sin 2x \Rightarrow \cos x(1-2\sin x)=0 $$ $$ \cos x=0 \mid \sin x=\frac{1}{2}$$ where $\mid$ stands for "or". This can be easily solved.
Also, you can see that $\frac{5\pi}{6}$ is clearly a solution that is not included by your approach. Hope it helps.

EDIT: Expanding on @ajotatxe's one-liner on why $\sin x= \sin y \nRightarrow x=y$:
If $$\sin x-\sin y=0 \Rightarrow 2\cos \frac{x+y}{2}\sin \frac{x-y}{2} =0$$ Then solving, we have $$\frac{x+y}{2} = (2n+1)\frac{\pi}{2} \space\space\space\text{or}\space\space \frac{x-y}{2} = n\pi \space\space\space\text{where}\space\space n\in \mathbb Z$$ $$\Rightarrow x=(2n+1)\pi-y \space\space\space \text{or} \space\space x= 2n\pi + y \space\space\space\text{where}\space\space n\in \mathbb Z$$

A: Cos x -sin(2x)= 0   implies that cos x- 2 sin x cos x=0      cos x (1- 2sin x) = 0
It means   cos x=0  or sin x=1/2
   Which gives answer  x = 2n pi +- 90`    or x= n pi +(-1)^n pi/6    I hope it helps you

A: Slightly differently,
$$\cos x=\cos\left(\frac\pi2-2x\right)$$
yields
$$\pm x=\frac\pi2-2x+2k\pi$$ or
$$x=\frac{4k+1}{4\pm2}\pi.$$

A: $$\cos\left(x\right)-\sin\left(2x\right)=0\space\Longleftrightarrow\space\cos\left(x\right)=\cos\left(2x-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)$$
Take the inverse cosine of both sides:
$$x=2\pi\text{k}_1+2x-\frac{\pi}{2}\space\space\space\vee\space\space\space x=2\pi\text{k}_2-2x+\frac{\pi}{2}$$
Where $\text{k}_1\space\wedge\space\text{k}_2\in\mathbb{Z}$

Events Celebrity Authors in Your Living Room: Billie Jean King
Celebrity Authors in Your Living Room: Billie Jean King
A unique opportunity to participate in online author talks with top-tier authors. Political and cultural icons talk to you from their living rooms while you're home in yours.
THIS EVENT WILL BE PRE-RECORDED: PLEASE SEND YOUR QUESTIONS FOR THE AUTHOR TO BOOKFESTIVAL@ATLANTAJCC.ORG!
An inspiring and intimate self-portrait of the champion of equality that encompasses her brilliant tennis career, unwavering activism, and an ongoing commitment to fairness and social justice.
In this spirited account, Billie Jean King details her life's journey to find her true self. She recounts her groundbreaking tennis career—six years as the top-ranked woman in the world, twenty Wimbledon championships, thirty-nine grand-slam titles, and her watershed defeat of Bobby Riggs in the famous "Battle of the Sexes." She poignantly recalls the cultural backdrop of those years and the profound impact on her worldview from the women's movement, the assassinations and anti-war protests of the 1960s, the civil rights movement, and, eventually, the LGBTQ+ rights movement.
She describes the myriad challenges she's hurdled—entrenched sexism, an eating disorder, near financial peril after being outed—on her path to publicly and unequivocally acknowledging her sexual identity at the age of fifty-one. She talks about how her life today remains one of indefatigable service. She offers insights and advice on leadership, business, activism, sports, politics, marriage equality, parenting, sexuality, and love. And she shows how living honestly and openly has had a transformative effect on her relationships and happiness.
Hers is the story of a pathbreaking feminist, a world-class athlete, and an indomitable spirit whose impact has transcended even her spectacular achievements in sports.
All books include shipping to the US and Canada only. Books will be shipped after the event and can take 7 – 10 business days to receive due to Covid-related USPS delays!

Railway Exam 2018, Importance of CBT ( Computer Based Test ): The development and advancement of digital technologies started with one fundamental idea: The Internet. As of now, the majority of the crucial exams be it SSC, IBPS, RBI, Railways etc conduct their recruitment exams online (Computer-based test) & are likely to continue the same in the future.
In today's article, we will discuss some benefits of the computer-based test. Scroll down to get updated.
Students can experience a real time exam scenario through mock tests. By that, as it may, a mock exam is built with exam pattern & syllabus of previous year papers and has to be finished within a specified time frame.
After attempting an online mock test any student is sure to gain speed while attempting in the real government/university exam. The students who don't attempt any mock tests might face challenges during the actual exam.
Just like any other exam an online mock test provides results/marks. Students get to know their areas of improvement after attempting and viewing their marks or results. At the same time, the student or candidate can also understand his/her ranking in comparison to others through the result.
With the detailed solutions provided at the end of AIT, the candidate will be brought to an analysis page showing what subjects or topics is he or she good at and which ones need improvement.
Once you identify your weak areas and again work on it. Continue this way, until you feel totally assured of each and every section of the exam.

Anything the 2-hour movie did BETTER?
Michael Pajaro
Contact Michael Pajaro
Post by Michael Pajaro » Thu Sep 25, 2008 2:59 am
It's safe to say that the premiere episode improved upon February's 2-hour movie in just about every way. But there were a few nice touches in the movie which were missing in the premiere:
There were a lot of long driving scenes in the movie. But some of the shots were filmed (rendered) really nicely. Artistically even. There were some beautiful shots of KITT racing down the road with desert mountains in the background. And remember that cool "wind tunnel" effect with the stream of smoke curving over KITT's hood? The new show was paced very quickly and didn't have time for some of those longer shots but I liked them in the movie.
We never saw the empty driver's seat. Yes, we saw KITT driving himself in the premiere but if it's at night or behind tinted glass it doesn't really count. In the movie, we saw a LOT of shots of KITT's steering wheel twisting back and forth on its own. Do they still have that remote-controlled Mustang? Or that driver's cage that sits on the roof? Use it. It's cool.
The movie mentioned the Foundation specifically. And the Trans Am. And Wilton Knight... I know, I know, the series has to establish itself first before they can start filling in the backstories. This is just a reminder that we'll be waiting...

Re: Anything the 2-hour movie did BETTER?
Post by BlueChaos » Thu Sep 25, 2008 3:13 am
The 2-hour movies had more conversation between KITT and Sarah. Made it more emotional. I know many people didn't like it, but I, for one, felt that the Sarah-KITT conversation on the topic of "sadness" where the VOX turns blue was particularly strong. This premiere episode lost almost all of that. I didn't feel A SINGLE BIT emotional in this one, whereas in the 2-hour movie there were a lot of emotional scenes: Sarah meeting her father alive, Mike's mom getting killed etc.
I don't want Knight Rider to get all soapy, but please, we also need some emotional scenes to care about the characters. People say that the 2-hour movie got too much talk and no action, but this one there is all action and no talk, and honestly I don't think that's good either. I cared about the characters more during the 2-hour movie than during this premiere episode. I think GST brings too much of the F&F formula into Knight Rider, because as we all know F&F is all action and not very emotional (except only on some parts).
Did they think we would get all emotional when Mike and Sarah were burned alive inside KITT? No.
Did they think we would get all emotional when Carrie shot Mike? No.
Did they think we would get all emotional when Sarah told Mike that he asked her to marry him? No.

You can still watch it at nbc.com, when you go to watch full episodes of Knight Rider, there is a panel under the view screen where you can "Select an Episode" and the Pilot is there.

I know many people didn't like it, but I, for one, felt that the Sarah-KITT conversation on the topic of "sadness" where the VOX turns blue was particularly strong. This premiere episode lost almost all of that. I didn't feel A SINGLE BIT emotional in this one, whereas in the 2-hour movie there were a lot of emotional scenes: Sarah meeting her father alive, Mike's mom getting killed etc.
I pretty much echo your point. There needs to be a proper balance of drama and action. Although there is a lot of much needed action now, it takes away any emotional connections with the characters and/or real sense of danger. Also, the overall tone of the 2-hour seemed to take itself more seriously than the first episode which seemed to be more about careless, over-the-top fun. If the show keeps going like this, it may burn itself out just like that nuclear fireball on K.I.T.T.
Bottom line: Find the proper balance of action, story and drama. Don't turn this show into a live action cartoon that will be laughed at by any non-Knight Rider fans. The show doesn't need to be campy to still be fun.

well, this is a minor nitpick off the top of my head- but I liked the effects better in the movie when the bad guys were shooting at KITT, and they bounced off him. Here, I don't think we had that effect, unless I missed something.
KITT: I walked right into that one, didn't I?
Michael: More like Turbo Boosted.

The idea with the desert and driving with that in the background I wish we had, but I guess they needed to rush and get MT to change to MK. I believe hearing GST from the interviews and what you may have heard personally Mike, that he has an iconic shot of KITT flying into the desert going to save Mike which might be in episode two.
The fact with KITT on his own going to get Mike, I believe in the next episode we will see that from what I saw in the preview, it's hard not to judge based on one episode because were are used to what happened in the 2 hour and the original. But hopefully if we give it time we will get what we want!
I do agree with you Mike, and believe me I can't wait to hear about the Foundation, MK, Bonnie, Devon, etc. but the fact is this show needs to help attract the audience before they get to that, if they do that right away they wont have people to sink into the "new mythology" before they bring back the "old mythology" but they did mention Michael Long. I hear you and I am waiting just as much.......

Your right they really did have some nice scenic shots in the BD pilot. There was a bit too much green screen in this one. I really did like the BD VM, but I don't miss the monitor in the dash, the HUD has won me over.
I'm glad they are keeping the story going between Mike and Sarah, that was a part of the pilot that I really enjoyed.

I like the Mustang, however I couldn't agree with you more on this aspect of the season premiere.
Isn't the idea of KITT supposed to be that he's subtle? So he's not drawing unwanted attention to himself? A quiet word to the CGI guys perhaps?? Leave the Fast'n'Furious style KITT out. Aside from the bad appendages, he's lit up like Las Vegas!
Even though SPM in the 80's had little wings and flairs everywhere, there were no corny lighting on/around or underneath the car [except the red lighting in the wheel arches but it was RED and it suited the original KI2T], there was no terrible excuse for a "top fuel style" hood ornament, and most certainly not a hint of those really really bad wheels..
C'mon guys, there's no class with this "F'n'F Attack Mode" KITT. It's not appealing, sleek or sexy. The "Classic Attack" KITT from the 2 hour pilot is miles ahead. Please change it back, for the sake of your audience and ratings.

The 2 hour at least made an attempt to give us more character development and story. It may not have fully pulled it off, but I think it becomes obvious from watching the series premier that doing a re-make is a lot harder than it looks.
The GST interview where he mentions the battles that the producers had with the studio and network over the tone of the show is consistent with what I'd heard from my sources. There have been a several last-minute decisions from NBC to remove and re-shoot scenes that they felt were "too dark". But regardless, there's no excuse for characters to be as poorly written at they were in the series premier. I really think almost everything else can be forgiven, but if you don't give the public believable characters, you're dead, especially if you want people to take the show seriously. That is what I think the 2 hour pilot did better, it fleshed out the characters more.
Post by Lost Knight » Fri Sep 26, 2008 11:39 am
I also wanted to add that on top of the better character development as Shapeshifter pointed out, K.I.T.T.'s morphing was more grounded to reality. We had in-depth explanations of the nanotechnology and how K.I.T.T. used it. Now, it seems as if the Knight 3000 is a bullet proof Transformer. Turning the car into an F-150 is going a little too far, I think. While morphing into only different color Mustangs wasn't quite enough, I do agree with the concept of keeping the vehicle at the same mass. If it can only turn into other Ford vehicles for obvious reasons, that's fine, but just keep them at roughly the same size and mass.


We're all back and almost finished with our first week following fall break. It's a difficult time of year to come back to school because after a much needed week off, we all come back to Champaign to find nothing but deadlines and stress. Most students have finals leading up to just a few days before the holidays, which leaves us with little time to enjoy the season.
It's getting colder outside, and the days are getting much shorter, making it seem as though there aren't enough hours in the day to complete the laundry list of tasks college students need to do leading up to finals.
Of course, as esteemed students of this University, almost all of us know ignoring our responsibilities is detrimental to our success — yet almost all of us do it anyway.
Not to mention, the holidays are right around the corner, and as broke college students, we have to save up for holiday shopping. There are a lot of stress factors coming to play at once, and keeping your mental health in check during this time is vital.
The Daily Illini Editorial Board would like to remind students to keep pushing on for the remainder of the semester. We're all in the home stretch, and it won't be long until we're actually home for the holidays, spending time with friends and family.
Prioritize your important work first, so it doesn't all build up at once. Now is definitely not the time to binge-watch a series on Netflix instead of studying or decide to go to Monday Night Lion when your final presentation is the morning after.
But priorities also include making the conscious effort to not get distracted while in class, especially as finals loom closer. It's not the best idea to browse shoes online while your professor is going over concepts guaranteed to be on the final; and checking Instagram or Twitter can definitely wait until later.
Priorities also include your health, too. Giving yourself a break once in a while to keep stress in check is equally as important as keeping up with schoolwork and extracurriculars.
During the last few weeks of the semester, self-control might just be the deciding factor between passing and failing, or a B+ and an A. Let's all work hard, just for a little while longer, and get this bread.

Sudden circumstances can elevate you to stardom. So when you do feel upset or emotional it may just be for no reason. But it's important to you to have yourself heard today, because higher ups are listening intently, so think about exciting things that are happening in your life, not the irritations that come along.
This is one of the best days of the month for you. Things outside of your control are happening around you and you need not get sucked in to them. You need to think of your health and what to do to improve on it to make your stamina even better. And say nothing to anyone while you're angry that you may regret.
Your nerves can be tested today and you can take things seriously or you can take things with a sense of humor, and make a great deal of fun out of a situation that is can include some folks making fools of themselves for the sake of trying your patience. Or is it April Fools yet?! Financial dealings need to have everyone's approval first, since a lot is on the line for everyone individually.
Relationships are highlighted. Important events may be happening but you may overlook them by jumping from one subject to the next without enough time to comprehend and ingest it all. You can show your smarts to someone whom you want to impress, but again, you may miss on the opportunity. Keep you brain engaged on one project at a time.
Your brilliant ideas are taken seriously so stay on this train of thought and go with it. Don't let go of it until you write it down or use it today or in the future. You are on a road to greatness and this is one more idea to bring you closer to your destination. You get the undivided support from those whose support you need in order to get to your destination.
This is one of the best days of the month for you. Financial backers are doing their very best to do what they have to do to help you make a surprisingly terrific margin of profit of other people's money. Get serious and meditate to keep on an even keel emotionally, and take a chance with your life with fun included.
The only person you have control over is you yourself. You don't need to respond to unreliable people who may be trying to get your attention in a weird way. It's their problem and you need to keep away from things that don't feel right to you and which you have no control over.
Are you fed up with your current employment? You just may get up and walk off! Your work can give you a sour stomach if you follow rules that no longer work. But you can't take it upon yourself to change everything, that's up to the boss. All you can do is struggle through today and look into finding a place to work that is way more up to date.
What a brilliant and unusual day where you can see some dreams come to a reality. Or make the first step toward something you may have dared utter out of your lips, but that now you can dare just go out and give it a try and see what develops. There's a momentum building and this jump starts the next level.
The Moon is in your sign and you rule the day. You can take things way over the top and regret it tomorrow. Keep whatever you are thinking under wrap and feel your strength by being wise and not reacting to anything and to anyone. Think about your home and the refuge you may not be getting there either. Oh, well.
Your privacy is very important to you, when sudden and private issues come to the surface. You may feel like you are not heard today. Get some rest and rethink the whole thing and wait a couple of days. It will seem much simpler to deal with and much easier to resolve. If you are an inventor, today is your day, have fun by inventing something interesting in you spare time.
Good news about a collective enterprise can have some surprisingly large dollar amount attached to it today. It's pay day and reward day if you did the right things and you now get the right result. Monetary too-good-to-be-true kind of proposals need to be set aside for a day where you can see past the hocks-pocus. However, if you are willing to take a big chance this can be a huge profit.
In the coming year cycle you will be awe inspiring. You will be able to shine in situations that you may not have had much of a voice in before. You will enjoy a sudden burst of spiritual growth that may subside after this year ends, but that will have your attention all through. Some of you may become technical and electronics geniuses. You will be able to succeed in a brilliant and admirable way. You've worked long and hard to get here, so be prepared every day because you never know what day opportunity will knock. Love is possible with someone who is supportive and doesn't mind being in your shadow.
The Moon makes an easy angle with Neptune, and a hard angle with the Sun.

This is one of the best days of the month for you. This is a wonderful day in many ways. So as long as you create a manageable schedule that isn't overly busy, you will be able to set your sights on the highest ambitions you have and make them into a reality, so reach for the stars.
You worry about a financial situation that has been brought forth by someone who may or may not deserve your financial help. It's your money and you need to invest it only in the places that have been proven to be successful before. Any new proposals need to be researched a whole lot more.
Relationships are highlighted. Making your intentions private will not do. But allowing yourself to feel comfortable enough to discuss what's in your heart, that is what it takes to be your friend. You may be disappointed by someone you thought was a friend, but they may just be having a difficult day..
You mean business from morning till night and your work ethic is something to behold. You may have too much on your plate, which can make you nervous wondering if you can finish it all up, but it's all with the thought of the future and you know that you want to be able to eventually get out of this particular job.
This is one of the best days of the month for you. You need to continue on what has been started yesterday, and bring it closer to fruition. You are on your way to greatness and your bright mood matches your potential.
Finances are in the midst of fluctuation. So you might as well make it fluctuate in your direction. Your ambition is taking another step forward. Nothing comes easily and you are prepared to face issues head on. Decorate your home some, it needs your attention.
In order to solidify a partnership you have to be on the same page intellectually. Conversations about what makes you both happy, discussing your common causes and how you can collaborate, bring you closer to working in harmony. Gossiping about coworkers is not advisable.
Money runs through your fingers like a sieve. You need to get your priorities straight and spend only on your necessities, because it makes no sense to spend on anything but what is best for your family today. But then, you may be doing some detail oriented work, and are way to busy to spend today. Good.
The Moon is in your sign and you rule the day. Having fun and getting things done are a beautiful thing. Go ahead and do that which is serious in a fun and productive manner. You are ready to start a new chapter in your life, if you haven't already.
You feel extra cozy and want to get rid of whatever reminds you of winter, and create a different look to your home. Early spring cleaning means that you will feel less encumbered by your own mind: It needs to feel lighter in order to think easier in order to get things done easier and feel less 'stuck'.
Communication is key to happiness and key in finding the right people to share your dreams with and share your life with. Friendships mean the world to you, so open communication is key to get them to understand your intentions. Brain storm any crazy idea and find that it isn't that crazy after all.
You think of business all day and for the right reason. You can cash in on some projects that have been in the making for some time. There's no reason to be greedy, so accept whatever the pay is gracefully and thankfully.
In the coming year cycle you will be motivated like never before. You will travel to the end of the earth to meet the needs of those you love, meaning your family. Nothing can stop you now! Nor should it. This is your year to spread your wings and fly as high as you can. Love is possible with someone who is playful and adventurous.
The Moon makes a wonderful angle with Mercury, a hard angle with Jupiter, conjoins Saturn, an excellent angle with Uranus and a hard angle with Venus.

Today's strength: Having fantastic energy.
Today's weakness: Being over worked.
Today's weakness: Lack of faith in the process.
Today's strength: Making great advancements.
Today's weakness: Being a couch potato.
Today's strength: Great work ethic.
Today's strength: Rich home life.
In the coming year cycle you will be more than happy to let go of some of the control you enjoy having of your surrounding. You will be so busy having the right engine to take you in a faster pace to your destination. So busy climbing the ladder of success. You may miss seeing those you love and noticing their need for attention from you. Some of you will have investors looking to invest in your business and perhaps go into partnership. Love is possible with someone who is a deep thinker and who cares deeply about those they love and those who spend most of their time with, and accept them like family.

Mars your ruler makes a link with Mercury and you may have changed the course of your life, if you haven't today is a good day to begin. Bring your today's clear point of view to those who matter and express it because you are positive and in a confident way.
This is one of the best days of the month for you. Mercury your ruler makes a link with Mars and you are most capable to express your opinions and your desires to your loved one and even to your boss. Speak your mind in a pure and pleasant manner.
When you are given a task, you understand the instructions better than any other guy/girl today. And you are the one higher ups notice. So bring the project to fruition in a faster time frame, and have plenty of time for your family.
Sensuality and romance go hand in hand. You create a situation where no matter what transpires in today's routine, you want to put a fun spin on it and create a romantic environment. Write a love poem and send it so someone special.
Mercury your ruler makes a link with Mars. You need not over analyze a love potential when you see things very clearly today. Click on 'save' and concentrate on a financial opportunity that can take you to the next level in your ambition.
The Moon is in your sign and you rule the day. You have your ups and down today where it comes to personal trials and tribulations. But when it comes to comprehending feelings about you and another, it's best to discuss it and come to a favorable conclusions.
You are eager to make the money you think you deserve because of a job well done. A job that could have been complicated, but that you explained to those who are assisting you in a calm and brilliant manner. But you will be wise to take whatever pay is offered.
You are the cheerful person today who walks into any room and lightens the mood immediately. But make no mistake about it, you are all business. Seldom can you define what you need to do to move forward as you do today, so get to doing.
When it comes to issues of the heart it's nobody's business but your own and maybe those who are closest to you. Greta day to create a bright spot at home where you can write down personal observations and a diary that will keep you grounded and happy.
This is one of the best days of the month for you. Nice day to spend time to create a new set of priorities. Get together with everyone involved, call for a meeting and find a meeting of the minds that will last a long time.
You are the boss anyone would wish they had today. You know what you want and you know how to get it done with words of instructions that are clear as a bell and spoken honestly and with compassion.
In the coming year cycle you will have plenty of time to look at the big picture and see it in ways that are so plain and inspiringly easy to follow, so much so that you must write your thoughts down! This will come in handy as you have to put the finishing touches to long term ambitions and projects that must be completed, close that book and come up with new goals and new roads on which to travel. Love can be possible with someone who is bright and cheery and smart and funny.

The Full Moon in your Sun sign today, and Mercury links up with the Sun and brings You into the focus. You are determined and willing to appease, please and even cajole whomever, in order to get your project off the ground. You have the right ideas, you have the world at your feet, so don't get confused and think in different terms today.
The Full Moon brings out the sensitive in you. The touchy and even sulky. To offset this tendency today, do for yourself what no one else can do for you: A nice cup of tea and a bubble bath. Sensual and relaxing and soothing. Your brain is on overload and a bull like you doesn't like this rushed feeling. You think of the past and you smile inwardly about your future.
The Full Moon brings individuals to the forefront who can be more aggravating than you can even imagine. Some of which are trying to get your goat, and see you all upset. Are you going to give them that pleasure? Heck no! On the other hand you can have a conversation wit a higher p and show your fun side, show your human. This is a fun day to get creative with your favorite people, so there.
The Full Moon usually can effect you more than others because your ruler is the Moon itself. This one may confuse you and put doubt in your mind about what ought to be as clear as a bell. You can trust people in authority and you can also trust your own progress. There may be too much for you to do in your business today, so it's best to scale down the expectations.
The Full Moon and you may say stuff you never meant to say and suddenly there your words may be: Out there in the air! At the same time you can only be yourself and if they like what they hear than that would be swell. This is a fabulous day to get your word out there. You are in the middle of an important cycle so don't just sit there.
The Full Moon in your money zone can get your nerves on edge, and Jupiter in your sign which makes a link with Saturn puts the pressure that has brought you thus far, into focus. So don't lose your desire to continue and don't get discouraged by a nerves inducing day. Drink a calming cup of tea like Chamomile and go about the business of a great day.
The Full Moon is in your Moon sign today, and there are clever people with a silver tongue talking you up and down, speaking in circles and thinking they can outsmart you? Ha! Allow your personality to shine without apologies, and continue on the same road you have been traveling. This is no day to change directions, no matter who advises you otherwise.
The Full Moon may see you resentful at having to do as much as you have to accomplish today. But if you look at it in another way, aren't you the lucky one to be as busy as you are. It is tedious work and a Full Moon may be an annoyance. You can create an environment that is fun; filled with music or any form of entertainment.
The Full Moon and Jupiter your ruler which links up with Saturn in your sign can halt your natural desire to take chances today. You need to do the most that you can of today and see this as a great day filled with action, and don't allow the jitters dictate the potential it really holds, which is magnificent.
The Full Moon may have you wanting to put the covers over your head and deal with complex issues another time, but no! You have to get into the office and face whatever, and find a way to come out on top. And the way to do that today is to simplify what seems to be complicated. The answer is much simpler, it's that your brain is a little mixed up today.
The Full Moon is a very social day for you. A day of self realizations and sharing it with someone who is on the same wave length as yourself. Get together and brain storm to your hearts content. Let off Full Moon steam this way. You may even meet new people who can stay past the acquaintance stage and into the friends forever stage.
The Full Moon in your money zone can be a frustrating experience, but you can see is a momentous day in which you can truly tell between who in your life is dead weight, who brings in something special, and who you want to be associated with going forward. Some of these individual who you are thinking about are business partners and associates.Some of them come out heroes in your eyes.
In the coming year cycle will come in a Full Moon day and as such it will be a charged year, full of great experience and passion. You will take stock of the relationships in your life and make some big decisions about who you choose to continue the journey of life with. Love can be possible with someone who can fill your curious brain and match it too.
The Moon enters Libra at 1:24 AM EDT.
The Full Moon is at 8:01 AM EDT.

, traducibile letteralmente come Grandi filmati dalla produzione a fumetti di Monkey Punch - Mankatsu, è una serie d'animazione ispirata dai personaggi del mangaka giapponese .

Si tratta di una serie di special televisivi di un'ora, trasmessi con cadenza mensile sul canale satellitare giapponese Wowow.
Ogni special si compone di due filmati più lunghi, uno di 30' ed un altro di 15', e poi da altri 8 di durata minore, tutte le storie sono basate sui diversi fumetti di Monkey Punch; tra queste figura anche Lupin Tachi, brevi scenette umoristiche su Lupin III.
Come dice chiaramente il titolo, le storie degli episodi sono tratte dalla produzione a fumetti di Monkey Punch, tra i filmati ritroviamo Alice the wild, del quale è stato realizzato anche un OAV nel 1992 ed Isshuku Ippan serializzato in Italia all'interno degli albi della seconda serie manga pubblicata tra il 1994 ed il 1996.

L'animazione è realizzata con uno stile molto diverso dalle altre produzioni d'animazione più recenti di Monkey Punch (Lupin III e Cinderella Boy), molto fedele al tratto underground e grottesco caratteristico dei manga di Monkey Punch.

Mankatsu è andato in onda in Giappone dal 31 luglio 2004 al 25 giugno 2005 dove è disponibile in un cofanetto di 7 DVD.

In Italia la serie è trasmessa a partire dal marzo 2009 sul canale satellitare a pagamento Cooltoon in lingua originale con i sottotitoli in italiano.

The fact that the weather in Vegas is fairly agreeable year-round means outdoor drinking spots will always be appealing. As with anything in Sin City, some haunts are just better than others. Here are a few of the best outdoor drinking spots in Vegas, handpicked by the staff at Turnt Up Tours in Las Vegas.
Aside from the Vegas glitter, the view here includes a man-made lake. Take the escalator from Parasol Up and you'll be ready to enjoy a glass of wine while soothed by a cool breeze.
Where else but Vegas would you find picnic tables underneath chandeliers? After placing a sports bet inside, your experience here can be topped off with a beefy burger and a perfectly chilled craft beer. Oh, and the chandeliers are made from deer antlers!
Made out of a spacious shipping container, this Sin City destination serves up some pleasant surprises–namely a wide selection of whiskey favorites. Simply step onto the adjacent patio with your preferred drink to enjoy an enchanting rooftop view.
Bartenders dazzling patrons with bottle tricks is just one of the perks of drinking at Harrah's. Just follow the sound of the DJs and live cover bands and you'll discover Carnaval Court.
Make your way to this popular Vegas spot for some amazing South of the Border treats and equally mouthwatering tequila and other signature delights. Your complimentary collector's glass will serve as a reminder of your visit here.
Cap off a Vegas evening by taking a step back in time at this charming cocktail and cigar lounge. Just make sure you snag yourself a spot at one of the cozy seats on the patio so you can bathe yourself in the Vegas air while enjoying the moment.
