"Bomber's Moon" was an American television play broadcast live on May 22, 1958, as part of the CBS television series, Playhouse 90. It was the 35th episode of the second season of Playhouse 9o.

Rod Serling wrote the teleplay about American fliers stationed in England during World War II. John Frankenheimer directed. Robert Cummings, Rip Torn, Hazel Court, and Martin Balsam starred.

Plot
An American bomber wing is stationed in England during World War II. The commanding officer, Col. Culver, is emotionless.  He accuses a young flier of cowardice.

Cast
 Robert Cummings as Col. Culver
 Rip Torn as Lt. Harrison
 Hazel Court as Mary Jarvis
 Martin Balsam as Capt. Mantell
 Larry Gates as Major
 J. Pat O'Malley as Pub keeper
 Cliff Robertson hosted the show.

Production
Martin Manulis was the producer and John Frankenheimer the director. Rod Serling wrote the teleplay.

Frankenheimer said of Cummings: "Bobby's a really fine dramatic actor, but people usually associate him only with comedy. Naturally enough I suppose. Directing an actor like this who feels immediately what the script wants and what the director wants makes you love this business."

Reception
In The New York Times, John P. Shanley praised Serling's dialogue as "fresh and striking", though occasionally "ornate and labored." He also praised the performances of Cummings, Torn, and Balsam.

Giants could strike gold with Ohio State tight end in mid-rounds of 2022 NFL Draft
The New York Giants have a long way to go before they have a competent scheme, starting with building around the quarterback position and solving the offensive line through the draft. However, one position that needs to be addressed this off-season is tight end, with Evan Engram hitting free agency and Kyle Rudolph expected to be cut.
Releasing Rudolph would save the Giants $5 million, making him a prime candidate. That money would cover a significant amount of the Giants' draft picks salaries, but with two first-round picks, Big Blue could look to trade back and lessen the 2022 cap hit from their top selections.
This year's tight end class is interesting, not featuring a player like Kyle Pitts but a few high upside talents who could develop nicely at the NFL level. One prospect who would fit perfectly with the Giants is Jeremy Ruckert out of Ohio State.
Per The Draft Network, Ruckert is a legitimate threat as a receiver but was never given a big role in the passing game:
Ohio State tight end Jeremy Ruckert projects as a viable threat in an NFL passing game. Ruckert's development as the primary tight end for the Buckeyes has spanned over several seasons—he's been an enticing complementary piece of the puzzle but never someone who was asked to serve in a starring role as a pass-catcher.
In 2021, Ruckert finished with 309 yards and three scores, nothing to write home about but film to digest. The Giants have been one of the worst teams in football regarding red-zone efficiency. Jason Garrett's unit produced touchdowns on just 44.74% of their trips to the red-zone last season, good for worst in the NFL. Ruckert would help smooth over that number, providing Daniel Jones a big target with some of the best hands at the position in the draft class.
In addition to Jeremy's receiving qualities, he's also a willing blocker who goes 100% on every play. With a non-stop motor, solid hands, and plenty of upside, new TE coach Andy Bischoff would have the perfect prospect to mold. He has similar traits to Marc Andrews entering the NFL, and Bischoff played an instrumental role in developing Andrews into one of the league's best TEs.
Ruckert and Andrews have almost identical frames, making the two extremely comparable as prospects. Of course, there's no guarantee Ruckert will become as lethal. Nonetheless, Ruckert's frame and reliable hands would be a blessing after years of Engram's inconsistencies and failure to take his game to the next level. Whether that be a result of poor coaching, scheme, or athletic limitations, going back to the Kevin Boss, Jake Ballard type of tight end would do the Giants well in the future.

The lawman is, as you can probably guess, someone who has sworn to uphold the law. Most lawmen are members of a recognized law enforcement organization, but there are a some freelancers (including some super-heroes and particularly law-abiding bounty hunters) who could be considered members of this archetype. Unlike the loose cannon, the lawman works within the system to carry out his goals. It should be noted, however, that this doesn't necessarily make him a good person. For every lawman who became an officer to help his community, there's an ex-high school bully who joined the force for the power trip.
Anybody can swing a sword and beat up bad guys, but the swashbuckler does it with panache. While the term was originally used to describe swordsmen, its current usage has more to do with a hero's style than his weapon of choice. In addition to being incredibly skilled (and knowing it), the swashbuckler is known for his courage, wit. Most swashbucklers believe strongly in fairness, justice, and honor, though some go to great lengths to hide this fact.
The Con Man specializes in finding people who want something for nothing and giving them nothing for something. When most people think of a con man, they imagine a ruthless criminal who steals money from little old ladies. While this is sometimes the case, the little old ladies aren't always blameless. In addition to exploiting the mark's trust, most cons also exploit their greed. Some con artists specialize in "short cons"--simple jobs that don't require much investment but also don't have high returns. Others prefer the "long con," which can require weeks or months of elaborate set-up, dozens of accomplices, and considerable working capital.
When Hex wrote M-Force: Monster Hunting in the 21st Century, we included a lot of detail about the organization and all of the support that it could offer a team of monster hunters in the field. Unfortunately, we didn't include any rules for dealing with this support structure, which meant the competence and response time of support personnel was basically left up to GM fiat.
The small-time crook is a person who relies on illegal activities to make a living, but doesn't have the abilities, resources, or imagination to pull off a big score. Some small-time crooks specialize in a particular brand of illicit activity—for example, drug dealing or stealing cars—but most will take any opportunity to make a quick buck if they think they can make a clean getaway. Small-time crooks often act as footsoldiers for mafia families, street gangs, and other criminal organizations.


For Summer 2015, I'll be teaching a handful of science and technology camps for kids going into grades 3 thru 7. While I enjoy this age group, I was also asked to consider offering a camp for 1st and 2nd graders. After much deliberation, I came up with a Young Inventor's Camp — we will be making some interesting things, but I'm also tossing in some hands-on experiments that will offer up some science and math discussions. I'm hoping the kids will enjoy it, and I've already begun collecting ideas and lists of supplies.
While I've got plenty of ideas for the various gizmos and gadgets we'll be making, I'm now on the prowl for experiments, especially those that can be done safely for this particular age group. Fortunately, a copy of Carmelo Piazzo's new book, Crazy for Science With Carmelo the Science Fellow, just landed on my doorstep… and I now have all the experiments I'll need for the week. Plus some!
It's not hard to see why Carmelo is so popular with students — his narration, his humor, and his patience all come through in the videos.
Chad Geran) this full-color 96 page book contains 36 different experiments (two pages per experiment, typically) along with lots of sidebar discussions related to science methods, safety, definitions, and more. Each project provides a detailed list of the components you'll need, and you're going to be surprised at how short these lists typically are. Even better, you'll find that many of the items used will be things you'll have in your home or can be obtained inexpensively from a grocery store or hardware store. Steps are numbered and the descriptive text is separated from the rest of the project's discussions in colored boxes that make it easy to identify the proper order for an experiment.
Carmelo present a very positive take on engineers and scientists, and his energy is contagious as you read the book. As I stated earlier, I'm offering a Young Inventor's Camp this summer and I've already identified over a dozen experiments that we will be doing in addition to our special gizmo/gadget projects. I just cannot believe my good luck in finding this book. And now I'm able to pass along the info to geek dads everywhere. I'm so pleased with the book that I'm declaring Carmelo, James, and Chad all honorary Geek Dads for this amazing resource they've created for geek dads (and geek kids) everywhere.
If you'd like to get a little more info about Carmelo, he was also kind enough to answer some of my questions about his background and Crazy for Science With Carmelo the Science Fellow, and I'm appended this Q&A below.
Note: I'd like to thank Leah for providing a copy of the book and for connecting me to Carmelo.
James Floyd Kelly: What is your background? You're a teacher and you opened the Brooklyn Preschool of Science, but what are your beginnings? Was science always a subject you enjoyed and considered as a possible career?
Carmelo: I graduated from Brooklyn College in 1997 with a degree in Elementary Education. I went on an interview for a 4thgrade position at PS 261 in Brooklyn and did not get the job due to lack of experience. However, a month later the position became available and the school offered it to me. I was frightened to say yes because my experience of science in New York City schools was always one of boredom. I never found reading a textbook fun. But I decided to go for it and I was able to convince them that I could do the job.
I had taken a science methodology class a year prior and remembered my professor stressing how important hands-on science is with kids. I created a curriculum that focused on thematic units of study, and followed a hands-on inquiry based model. I immediately fell in love with how powerful science education can be. The integration of hands-on activities motivated my students tremendously. This inspired me to go to graduate school and get my Master's degree in Environmental Science Education. Since then, I have opened the Cosmic Cove science center and now my school. I didn't expect this career path, but it found me.
James Floyd Kelly: Tell me a little more about the Brooklyn Preschool of Science — it sounds amazing. What are the organization's goals? Are the experiments in the book typical of what students there might be learning?
Carmelo: I am a big believer in thematic units of study and scaffolding concepts. What the kids do on Monday has a connection to what they do on Tuesday and Friday. What they do on October 1st has a connection to October 31st. These monthly themes guide different lessons. For example, October's theme, "Autumn Science," includes a visit to a local farm to pick out pumpkins—a common trip for many preschools. The twist here is what the students do with the pumpkins once they get back to the classroom. First, they dissect them and, in the process, learn vocabulary words like pulp, seeds, vine and skin. When that's done, they cut up the leftovers and add paint to make pumpkin prints. Finally, the rest of the fruit is put into a blender to create a puree, with the kids adding flour, salt and oil through careful measuring to make their own play dough. These projects manage to integrate art, fine motor skills and math—and connect it all to science—while still being fun for students.
By utilizing these thematic units of study, children get an amazing educational preschool experience. They still get to be children and play. However, the play is all done with an integrated scientific approach. The kids start to look at every subject matter through a scientific lens.
Here's another way we incorporate math, literacy, fine motor, gross motor, and more into one lesson: In the book, there is a mealworm activity. We work with mealworms in our program and teach the children about biodiversity. We give them unifix cubes and have them measure the length of their critter. We hand out construction paper strips and pipe cleaners and have the kid's construct a headband antenna. This teaches the children the function of the antenna, and at the same time allows kids to pretend play as if they are bugs. This is the beauty of a science-based curriculum.
James Floyd Kelly: Out of the book's 36 experiments, do you have a favorite? What would you say is the most popular with kids (and why)?
Carmelo: My favorite experiment in the book is by far the "Yes. It was Me!" experiment dealing with farts and burps. There is such a negative stigma on gas or flatulence. If someone farts people giggle or simply yell 'gross!' However, the process of passing gas is an important bodily function and this experiment shows why. It is taking something that children find so funny and using their humor to teach an amazing scientific concept of pressure. Humor + teaching = learning!
The most popular kid experiment in the book is "Pop Goes the Brain." There is something about giving kids a challenge, have them design a solution, and then have them test their idea to see the outcome. This experiment motivates kids to want to create a skull around their water balloon. Can you imagine being a kid and throwing a water balloon against your classroom wall? It's crazy, but it is fun. Kids love to invent things, and if their invention was unsuccessful they get to do it again. This is why this is their favorite experiment. They get to do it over and over and over again.
James Floyd Kelly: What are your criteria for acceptable versus non-acceptable experiments for students? How do you personally evaluate an experiment or project and determine whether it's both safe AND relevant for a classroom demonstration?
Carmelo: I start all experimental research by first determining my thematic unit of study. I then think about what concepts connect to that area. For instance, we are in the middle of a pirate class and I try to find concepts that connect to the science of pirates. I can teach concepts like density, buoyancy, forces and motion, wind pressure, and so much more. Once I determine the concepts that connect to my unit of study, I research hands-on experiments that help reinforce the teaching of that concept. In my research, I make sure that the activities are age-appropriate and safe. Once of the things were doing now is building cannons. The kids love it, and they learn a ton from it.
James Floyd Kelly: Where do you go from here? You've got the book and your YouTube Channel, but what else is Carmelo the Science Fellow working on or considering for furthering the cause of science in the classroom?
Carmelo: My goal is to motivate children in science, and I hope to find other mediums in which I can do so. I would love to continue the expansion of my science-based preschools, as this is a direct way of creating future scientists. However, there are other ways to reach children on a much broader level. I am currently in the process of designing an innovative internet science series for kids. I hope to use the web to take my mission from the tens of thousands of kids I have reached, to eventually inspiring millions. Yes, I would love to make America realize how important and special science truly is.

Flying Chunk of Ice Crashes Through Roof of Modesto Home
By NBC Bay Area Staff	• Published at 11:55 am on September 10, 2015
KCRA
Neighbors are flocking to a home in Modesto after a large chunk of ice fell from the sky and crashed into a family's garage Wednesday morning.
"It sounded so loud so it must have been traveling pretty fast," said Lisa Lawrence. She was sitting outside her home on Briggs Avenue at about 11 a.m. when she saw something unusual.
"It looked like a garbage bag flying in the air," she told KCRA. "I looked up at it, and it was a big old ball of ice, bigger than a basketball and I watched it go down and it went off like a bomb."
The ice landed a few doors down, crashing through a roof on Ackerman Way, eventually landing on the bumper of a car. The homeowner and her daughter were in the living room a few feet away when it happened.
The object left a big hole in the roof and damaged the car.
Neighbors speculate the ice might have fallen from a plane.
While the Federal Aviation Administration investigates the incident, neighbors are scratching their heads, trying to figure out where the falling ice came from.
KCRA reports the landlord is expected to fix the hole in the roof this week.

Chicago O'Hare Airport Departures
If you're flying out of Chicago O'Hare Airport, there are a few important tips you should keep in mind. These include arriving at the airport at least two hours before your scheduled departure time, checking in at the departure gate, and determining how much luggage you can take. You should also understand the weight limits for your checked luggage, as well as any possible flight cancellations.
Arriving at least two hours before scheduled time
It's best to arrive at Chicago O'Hare airport at least two hours before your scheduled flight time. This will ensure you have plenty of time for security checks and weighing of your bags. Also, it will save you time and money in terms of parking. If possible, use public transportation to reach the airport, rather than parking your car. The train terminal is conveniently located near the airport, so it is a great option for travelers.
Upon arrival at Chicago O'Hare airport, you will be able to find a parking space. The airport has 9 concourses and four terminals. Terminals 1, 2, and 3 are all located in the same building, while Terminal 5 is located across the taxiway. An automated train connects all four terminals.
In the past, TSA agents recommended arriving at least two hours before your scheduled time in order to avoid the long security lines. However, the TSA is now encouraging passengers to arrive at least three hours before their scheduled time to allow ample time to go through security. In addition, many airports have been having trouble hiring TSA employees, which has led to longer security lines.
When flying Southwest Airlines, it's best to arrive at least two hours before your scheduled time. The airport is often busier during the summer months, so you'll want to arrive early enough to avoid the crowds. In addition, you should consider parking, security screening, and checking flight status in case of inclement weather.
Several airlines fly into Chicago O'Hare. Most international flights land at Terminal 5, while domestic flights must take a landside bus to T3 and clear security. Shuttle services are also available. You can also get around by walking airside between the terminals, but it can take a long time. If you don't have time to walk, you can always choose to use the courtesy shuttle provided by your car rental agency.
Checking in at the departure gate
If you are checking in at the Chicago O'Hare Airport (ORD), you must be sure to follow the instructions provided on your flight ticket. In most cases, you should arrive at least three hours before departure time. For some flights, you can arrive as early as four hours before departure time.
If you're looking for a comfortable place to eat, there are several family-friendly restaurants and lounges at the airport. For example, the Berghoff Cafe at Gate C26 offers a view of the airplanes as they take off. Alternatively, you can try Chili's Too, located in the Food Court. In addition, you can choose to dine in the airport's Starbucks, which offers free coloring books for children.
To avoid crowds, you should arrive at Chicago O'Hare Airport at least two hours before your flight's departure time. Although you can check in online, you should still allow yourself enough time to check in for your flight. There are generally long lines, so you may want to allow yourself plenty of time.
If you need to wait for a while, consider staying in a hotel near the airport. The Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport Hotel is conveniently located near the domestic terminal. It also offers a shuttle to the airport, which means you don't have to worry about transportation.
While this may be the most convenient way to check in at Chicago O'Hare Airport, there are also many other options for lodging. While an onsite hotel at Terminal 2 is the most convenient, it may be more cost-effective to choose an off-site hotel that provides airport shuttle service.
You'll need a government-issued photo ID to check in and go through security. A valid Illinois driver's license or a state agency-issued ID is acceptable. You should also make sure you have your itinerary or receipt, which will make the security checkpoint easier. Only passengers with a valid ticket can proceed beyond the security checkpoint. Be sure to pack only what you need and avoid anything dangerous. Knives and other sharp objects are subject to a thorough search.
Limitations on luggage weight
The Chicago Department of Aviation has worked to improve the facilities and services at Chicago O'Hare airport for years. As one of the busiest airport systems in the world, it has never stopped working on improvements. In fact, the airport is currently building a new runway system to reduce flight delays.
However, the current order may soon be abandoned. This would result in increased congestion and delays for passengers. In addition, the current arrival limitations would be extended until 2008, which would be problematic. There are also many problems with the proposal. It would make it harder to manage the traffic flow at O'Hare and would make it more difficult to compete.
In response to the congestion at Chicago O'Hare airport, the FAA has sought comments from the public on proposed rules. The agency is looking for a comprehensive solution to reduce flight delays. It should implement a market-based solution to relieve congestion at congested airports. This could include an auction mechanism for allocating space at O'Hare.
In May, nearly a quarter of Chicago-bound flights were delayed or canceled. During this time, flight delays at Chicago's O'Hare and Midway airports were higher than during the pre-pandemic period. A large part of the problems involved staffing shortages.
It is essential to know your weight and size limitations before checking in. Airlines vary in their weight limits. Bags over the weight limit are considered overweight. Overweight bags will be charged a fee. For example, over 50 pounds of luggage will be overweight. However, some airlines have a limit of up to 40 lbs.
O'Hare airport has eight runways. Three of them are east-west and have different weight restrictions. During the day, the longest runway is the one that intersects with the north crosswind runway. This runway is typically used for takeoffs during west flow. The airport also has three FAA air traffic control towers.
Flight cancellations at Chicago O'Hare
The Chicago O'Hare airport is considered one of the busiest airport systems in the world. For many years, the Chicago Department of Aviation has worked to improve the facilities and increase flight efficiency. With an expanded runway system on the way, it is expected that flights will run more smoothly and there will be less disruption.
A storm system that moved through the Chicago area Saturday night caused hundreds of flight cancellations and delays. Almost 700 flights were canceled or delayed in Chicago area airports, with the most delays occurring at O'Hare International Airport. Departing flights were delayed on average for 34 minutes, while arriving flights experienced delays of less than 15 minutes.
FlightAware, a website that tracks airline cancellations, reported more than 2,500 delayed or canceled flights in the United States as of midday Monday. The same company found that Chicago O'Hare International Airport was having a tough time again, with 12% of flights cancelled by 11 a.m.
While a flight may be delayed or canceled for any number of reasons, the biggest factors behind Chicago's delays are bad weather and lack of staffing. During the peak travel season, nearly one-quarter of flights arriving in Chicago were delayed or canceled, resulting in longer than average wait times and increased frustration for passengers.
If you're planning to fly internationally, make sure to check in at least three hours prior to your flight. Also, make sure to check in any required travel documents and bring plenty of time. If you're traveling from Chicago, you may want to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your flight.

Wohler Launches iAM Series Monitoring Systems Engineered to Optimize Functionality, Maximize Flexibility and Control
By Summer Mclennan 14 April 2015
New Series of iAM Intelligent Adaptable Monitors Addresses Wide Array of Monitoring Applications and Requirements
SAN FRANCISCO -- April 12, 2015 -- Wohler Technologies today introduced the first of a range of new products in the company's new iAM (intelligent Adaptable Monitoring) Series of audio and video monitoring solutions: the iAM-MADI. Each of the iAM Series signal monitors provides a robust monitoring and analysis toolset, as well as built-in networking features that support remote monitoring and are flexible enough to allow the systems to scale according to the user's requirements.
"In addition to providing a convenient and familiar interface across all monitoring systems, our new iAM Series gives users unprecedented flexibility in adapting the functionality of their monitoring solutions to meet current operational and technical demands," said Wohler CEO Carl Dempsey. "Users can invest with confidence, knowing that they can adjust very quickly as new formats and protocols emerge or as their own workflows evolve."
Throughout the 2015 NAB Show, Wohler will showcase the new iAM-MADI monitoring system, a 1-RU multichannel monitor developed in close collaboration with Wohler's partners in the mobile production sector. Initially available with either eight or 16 individual level controls -- with audio inputs assigned to any of those -- this new system makes it easy for operators to select the mix of inputs they wish to monitor, muting inputs and outputs when necessary. Above each level control is a small display that indicates the label associated with a particular channel. This feature allows inputs to be slaved off of a MADI router, with all selected channels clearly identified for the operator. In front-of-room positions and in mobile trucks, the iAM-MADI monitor provides producers with straightforward controls and a fast, convenient way to see and hear select channels.
All products in the iAM Series will feature a uniform control surface that simplifies training, operation, and maintenance across a fleet of monitoring units. Because multiple iAM units can be networked, operators can use stored templates to perform remote, single-setup configuration rapidly in one or more systems to suit a given show or production. With access to a Web-based interface for all units, operators also enjoy remote monitoring capabilities on virtually any connected device.
The software-centric design of iAM systems makes it easy for users to make an immediate investment in the monitoring functions they require, and then to extend that functionality through fast, simple software upgrades. The new iAM range also enables Wohler to develop, test, and deliver critical new monitoring and analysis tools and extended format/protocol support very quickly, in turn empowering the user to take advantage of the industry's latest technical advances with both speed and ease.

Carter Warden, The Clergy Project, February 23 – March 8
Carter Warden is a former conservative pastor of 25 years, now openly atheist. Using the pseudonym "Adam Mann", he was a founder of The Clergy Project, an on-line support group for clergy who no longer believe the doctrines of the churches they serve. "Adam" was one of the original five interviewees in the 2010 Dennett-LaScola article, "Preachers who are not Believers." While still in ministry, he was interviewed undercover by ABC World News Tonight and the Canadian Broadcasting Company.
Last fall he "came out" publicly as an atheist at the Freedom From Religion Foundation's annual gathering. A press release was picked up by the Johnson City Press and Carter was outed to his church, friends, and extended family. In this interview, he talks about that experience, the challenge facing clergy who no longer believe yet who make a living for their families by serving their churches, and the liberation when people are able to be honest with themselves and others about what they really believe.
Hear previous interviews with individuals connected to the Clergy Project including Linda LaScola, Daniel Dennett, Dan Barker, Gretta Vosper, Ryan Bell, David Hayward, Pat Green, John Loftus, Bart Campolo, and Jerry DeWitt.

Bart Campolo, Why I Left, February 16 – March 1
Tony Campolo has been a fixture in the evangelical Christian scene for decades. For the past 30 years his son, Bart has followed in his footsteps. Their brand of Christianity is evangelical (personal salvation through Jesus) but with an emphasis on social justice and care for least of these.
Just over two years ago, Bart decided to tell his parents that he no longer could believe in God. Out of this painful and liberating revelation is their story, the film, Far From the Tree, and the book, Why I Left: Why I Stayed: Conversations on Christianity Between an Evangelical Father and His Humanist Son.
Bart is still in ministry. It isn't Christianity, however. He is the University of Southern California's first Humanist Chaplain. He speaks with me about what happens in many families when religion divides. Many families stop talking. The Campolos keep the conversation going.

John Teton, International Food Security Treaty, Feb. 9-22
In this episode we discuss a condition that is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of millions of people. It is a condition that is completely preventable. Hunger.
Why are so many people in the world…why is anyone in the world malnourished? What can we do about it? The answer according to today's guest is simple. We can end hunger by the force of law.
John Teton is the director of the International Food Security Treaty. The International Food Security Treaty or IFST aims to establish enforceable international law guaranteeing the right to be free from hunger, and to oblige countries to establish their own related national laws.
John Teton lives in Lake Oswego, Oregon. He is a writer. He has written three science fiction novels. The novels are Upsurge, Appearing Live at the Final Test, and Elevation: The Cave Logs of New Hale, Tibet.
John's work with the International Food Security Treaty is not science fiction. Instead, it is a shift to recognize in our consciences that hunger is a crime like slavery. It is a crime that like slavery can be ended by force of law.
John has written two articles about the International Food Security Treaty. In 2010 he published in the Yale Journal of International Affairs, an article entitled "The Armless Hand: The Call for Anti-Hunger Law and the International Food Security Treaty."
This was followed in 2016 by an article in the Harvard International Review, "On the Origin of a Hunger-Free Species By Means of Enforceable Natural Law."
John Teton is a graduate from Harvard and studied film-making at NYU. He released a short film in 2016 about the IFST called Thunderhead Clearing.
A special 60 minute episode will air Friday, February 10th at 9 am on KBOO 90.7.

Maggie Rowe, Sin Bravely, Feb 2-15
This is the funniest book about the fear of hell I have read. Actress and comedian, Maggie Rowe, producer and performer of Comedy Central's stage show sitnspin writes about her three month experience in an evangelical psychiatric institution. Diagnosed with a form of OCD known as scrupulosity she couldn't shake the fear that she might not avoid hell.
Maggie is not alone with this fear. She took her heaven and hell religion more seriously than many. Her book is Sin Bravely: A Memoir of Spiritual Disobedience. Because she writes with honesty and deadpan humor she has found a way to reframe her own experience of spiritual abuse and offer a path to others as well.
She has written for "Arrested Development" and "Flaked" for Netflix. She co-wrote the screenplay for and directed the New Age religious mockumentary "Bright Day" and is the creator of the theatrical satires "Hollywood Hellhouse" and "Hollywood Purity Ball."
This is the third of my three-part series on Holy, Healing, Spiritually Disobedient, Creative, and Awakened Women, women authors changing religion for the better.

5 cl, 6 dwg
The present invention relates to a security element for protecting valuable objects from counterfeiting, which has at least one first liquid crystal material having thermochromic properties, and at least one second liquid crystal material that creates an optically variable effect. The invention further relates to a valuable item, a transfer material and a method for manufacturing such protective elements and valuable items, as well as to a method for checking such a protective element, respectively a valuable item.
A valuable item according to the present invention can be understood to mean any item protected against counterfeiting, for example, branded goods or valuable documents. Valuable items according to the present invention include primarily banknotes, but also stocks, certificates, postage stamps, checks, check cards, credit cards, identification cards, passports, entrance tickets, travel tickets, airline tickets and other similar documents, as well as labels, stamps , packaging or other elements of product protection against counterfeiting. Accordingly, the simplified concept of "valuable document" or "security element" always encompasses documents of this type in the following description.
The possibility of using thermochromic (thermosensitive) materials to protect valuable documents from counterfeiting has been known for a long time. For example, DE 2212350 describes a security thread of a transparent polymer with cavities or voids. In such cavities or voids, there is a liquid crystal material which, when the temperature rises or falls, reversibly changes its color.
A security thread with thermochromic properties is also known from EP 0608078 B1. The basis of such a protective thread is a polymeric material provided with a print or signs obtained by partial removal of the metal coating. A thermochromic coating is located on top of this print, respectively, of the reversed signs, which at a normal temperature has a certain color. When heated, this thermochromic coating becomes colorless and thereby allows you to see the signs below it. In another embodiment, you can also use a thermochromic coating, which is colorless at normal temperature, and when heated, acquires some color, hiding the signs underneath. Such a security thread is embedded in paper protected from counterfeiting in the form of a so-called "diving" thread, which directly emerges ("emerges") on the surface of the paper in certain areas.
However, the disadvantage of such thermochromic protective threads is that the thermochromic effect is already widely used in other areas not related to counterfeit protection exclusively for decorative purposes, and therefore, due to a change in the thermochromic material of its color, the optical effect is no longer perceived by humans as a protective feature , but only as a design element. For this reason, such security elements do not provide a high degree of protection against counterfeiting.
Based on the foregoing, the present invention was based on the task of proposing a valuable item and a protective element that would provide a high degree of protection against counterfeiting and would not have the disadvantages inherent in the solutions known from the prior art.
Another objective of the invention was to develop a method of manufacturing such a protective element and a valuable item, as well as a method for checking such a protective element, respectively a valuable item.
These tasks are solved using the distinguishing features of the independent claims. Preferred embodiments of the invention are given in the respective dependent claims.
According to the invention, the security element according to the invention has at least one first liquid crystal material having thermochromic properties and at least one second liquid crystal material producing an optically variable effect.
The first liquid crystal material has thermochromic properties, i.e. able to change its own color under the influence of temperature. In a preferred embodiment, the thermochromic material further exhibits polarizing effects, i.e. capable of selectively polarizing light. Materials of this type are preferably encapsulated liquid crystals, which are crystalline at a certain temperature and do not polarize light, but with a change in temperature, especially with an increase in temperature, and a transition to a liquid crystalline state, they change their color and additionally begin to polarize light. Depending on the thermochromic material used, it can change from a liquid-crystalline state to a liquid state with a further increase in temperature, in which the thermochromic material again becomes transparent or at least translucent and does not polarize light.
The second liquid crystal material creates an optically variable effect. By such an "optically variable effect" according to the invention is meant an effect in which different color impressions are created under different viewing angles. A similar effect is also called the "color kipp effect" (from it. "Kippen" - tilt), in this regard, color transitions between green and blue or copper and green have proved to be most effective. In a preferred embodiment, this second material also has light polarizing properties. Crosslinked liquid crystal materials possess light-polarizing properties with the simultaneous presence of a color kipp effect, but the absence of thermochromic effects.
In the most preferred embodiment, the thermochromic liquid crystal material and the liquid crystal material producing an optically variable effect polarize the light in different ways, i.e., for example, one of these materials can selectively provide the right and the other of them the left circular polarization of light.
In a preferred embodiment, based on liquid crystal materials, it is advisable to prepare printing inks by mixing such materials, for example, with a transparent binder. Obviously, other color pigments may also be part of the printing ink. Liquid crystal materials can be applied to the substrate using any printing method suitable for this purpose, primarily screen and metallographic printing, but also autotypic intaglio, flexographic and letterpress.
Liquid crystal materials can not only be used in the form of printing inks, but also mixed with a transparent polymer layer material.
The invention provides for a wide variety of possibilities for using the liquid crystal materials offered therein. Thus, for example, a thermochromic material can be applied in a continuous layer or, more preferably, provided only in certain areas, especially in the form of signs or patterns.
A liquid crystal material that creates an optically variable effect can, like a thermochromic material, be applied in a continuous layer or provided only in certain areas, giving preference to one or another option depending on the particular application of the protective element.
The thermochromic material can be located above and / or below and / or next to the material, creating an optically variable effect. The best effects are achieved with at least partial overlapping of various liquid crystal materials. Another advantage associated with the mutual overlapping of various optical effects is the ability to make them more visible to a person on a protected subject, and with appropriate performance, the possibility of checking them simultaneously. So, in particular, when using polarizing filters, these effects can be made visible in one "trick," by attaching the filter to a specific place in the subject.
As a thermochromic material, it is preferable to use substances that at a temperature below a certain predetermined temperature are at least translucent, preferably completely transparent, and acquire a certain color above this temperature. For use for certain purposes, it may be appropriate to use thermochromic materials that, at a temperature below a certain temperature, have a certain color and become translucent or transparent above this temperature. The temperature of the change in the thermochromic materials of their color should preferably lie above ambient temperature, for example, in the range from 25 to 60 ° C, preferably from 30 to 60 ° C. However, in some cases it is also possible to use thermochromic materials, the temperature of which changes in their color lies below 25 ° C.
Separate layers of the protective element can either be directly applied to a valuable item, or pre-prepared on a separate basis. On the material of a valuable object, respectively, of a separate base as a substrate on which the protective element is located, no restrictions are imposed. Preferably, however, such a material is paper or polymeric material, including in the form of films. The protective element in its manufacture on a separate basis can be made, for example, in the form of a self-supporting label, preferably on a polymer substrate. Since in some cases it may be difficult to apply the layers forming the protective element in a certain sequence directly onto the valuable object, it may be appropriate to at least partially prepare the layered structure forming the protective element on the corresponding substrate to obtain a transfer material.
In the manufacture of the protective element in the form of a transfer material by preparing the entire sequence of layers forming the protective element on the corresponding substrate, it must be taken into account that the layers of the layered structure of the protective element must be located in the reverse order on the substrate strip of the transfer material. In this case, a layered structure forming the protective element can be prepared on an infinite substrate strip. To attach the protective element to the protected valuable item, an adhesive layer is applied, applied either to the valuable item or to the uppermost layer of the translated material. For this purpose, it is preferable to use hot melt adhesive. To give the protective element the desired shape, you can either provide an adhesive layer only on areas of the translated material intended for transfer to a valuable item, or activate glue, for example hot-melt adhesive, only on such areas. After transferring the protective element to the valuable item to be protected, the strip of substrate of the translated material is removed, as a result of which only the layered structure of the protective element itself remains on the protected valuable item.
A valuable item on which the security element is applied can be, for example, tamper-resistant paper, tamper-proof paper or packaging. Obviously, the protective element proposed in the invention can also be provided with other valuable objects that require their protection against counterfeiting.
The protective element is preferably completely located on the surface of the protected object. The protective element, when it is located completely on the surface of the protected object, can be made significantly larger in terms of the area occupied by it, due to which the optically variable effect and the color change of various liquid crystal materials caused by the temperature change become much more noticeable. In addition, larger areas are much easier to see through the polarizing filter.
The use of differently polarized light crystalline materials allows you to further increase the degree of protection against counterfeiting provided by the protective element. This is due to the fact that such materials are either difficult to obtain or do not go on free sale.
Summarizing the above, it can be stated that the solution proposed in the present invention further improves the degree of protection against counterfeiting provided by the protective element by combining the thermochromic effect visually distinguishable without auxiliary means and an optically variable effect visually distinguishable without auxiliary means. An additional increase in the degree of protection against counterfeiting is made possible, first of all, by the additional use of visually distinguishable only when using auxiliary means of the polarizing effect. The thermochromic effect, along with an easily distinguishable visually optically variable effect, makes it possible to additionally hide, respectively make visible some information that, for example, can "appear" only when a person touches a protective element. The authenticity of such information can be checked at a subsequent stage, for example, it can be additionally checked using a polarizing filter if at least one of the liquid crystal materials polarizes the light.
Other advantages and embodiments of the invention are described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. At the same time, the proportions depicted in the drawings do not have to correspond to real size ratios and serve primarily for a more visual explanation of the underlying principles. In the accompanying drawings, in particular, is shown:
figure 1 is a document protected from counterfeiting with the security element proposed in the invention,
figure 2, 5, 6 - various embodiments of protected from a fake document depicted in section, and
figure 3, 4 is a view in plan shown in figure 2 of a document protected from forgery.
Below the invention for a visual explanation of its essence is considered in more detail on the example of banknotes.
A similar note 1 made of paper or polymer is shown in FIG. 1 and has a strip-like security element 2 extending over its entire width. In addition to the security element shown in the drawing, the banknote 1 can obviously also have other security features, in particular watermarks, prints from steel engravings, security threads, luminescent or magnetic overprints or similar security elements.
The security element 2 has a thermochromic (thermosensitive) liquid crystal layer combined with a liquid crystal layer with a color kipp effect. The security element 2 is completely located on the surface of the banknote 1, and therefore, due to the temperature change, the color change of the thermochromic layer, which is preferably applied in the form of patterns and / or signs, is very clearly visible.
Along with a thermochromic layer and a layer with a color kipp effect, the protective element 2 can also have other layers that individually or in combination with other layers of the protective element create other visually distinguishable optical effects. The features of the layered structure of the protective element 2 are examined in more detail using some preferred embodiments thereof with reference to FIGS. 2-6, where the banknote 1 is shown in plan view, respectively in section, by plane AA.
According to figure 2 on a paper or polymer base 3 banknotes 1 having a white or light intrinsic color, applied liquid crystal thermochromic print 4 in the form of signs or patterns. On top of the thermochromic layer 4, there is a continuous liquid crystal layer 5 with a color kipp effect, which creates in the reflected light, regardless of temperature, various color impressions when the angle of view is changed. A similar effect is called "optically variable". Layers 4 and 5 can be applied, for example, by printing ink consisting of a transparent binder to which liquid crystal pigments are mixed.
Since such pigments are transparent and do not have their own color or have only a weakly pronounced own color, the visual impression created by them substantially depends on the background beneath them. On a diffusely reflecting white or light background, such pigments are practically invisible due to the superposition of diffusely reflected scattered light on an optically variable effect. Against a dark background, since it absorbs the optical radiation passing through these pigments, the color modulations created by them are most pronounced. According to the invention, a dark, preferably black, background can be solid or structured. So, for example, the background can be formed by patterns and / or signs, in particular guilloche, inverted guilloche, or other finely structured patterns. Similarly, some information reproduced by alphanumeric characters or barcodes can be integrated into the security element. In a preferred embodiment, the predominant portion of the corresponding background surface should be dark or black.
Due to the light transmission of the liquid crystal pigments, the base 3, at least in some of its areas where the liquid crystal materials 4, 5 are located, should preferably have a dark, especially black, intrinsic color or, as shown in the drawing, an additional dark, preferably black, layer 6, which can be applied, for example, by printing. Against a dark background, the optically variable effect in the form of a color kipp effect created by layer 5 is most noticeable. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, at least in the area occupied by the liquid crystal material, a solid black layer is provided underneath. Layer 4 is preferably made of a thermochromic material transparent at normal ambient temperature. The thermochromic layer 4, at a temperature above the temperature of its color change, preferably acquires a particularly light color, as a result of which the signs reproduced by the thermochromic layer 4 become visible, and the color kipp effect in the area occupied by them becomes almost indistinguishable. The following picture is perceived by the human eye. At a temperature of the thermochromic layer below the temperature that he changes his color with the naked eye, only the color kipp effect, created by the non-thermochromic material of layer 5, is perceived. When the thermochromic layer is heated above the temperature of his change of color, for example, body heat transmitted by the thermochromic layer when touched to it, or heat released if the surface of the protective element is rubbed, additional information reproduced by the thermochromic layer 4 appears, which in the shown and Example 3 are rectangles. In this way, a person can with the naked eye check two protective signs at once. In a preferred embodiment, at least one of the liquid crystal materials used has light polarizing properties. In the most preferred embodiment, materials of both layers — thermochromic layer 4 and layer 5 with a color kipp effect — should possess light-polarizing properties. The thermochromic material shown in Fig. 2 at a temperature above the temperature of its color change, i.e. in the liquid crystal state, it provides the right circular polarization of light, while the material with the color kipp effect - the left circular polarization of light. Therefore, when examining a protective element through a polarizing filter that transmits only right-handed polarized light, at a temperature higher than the change temperature, the thermochromic layer 4 of its color can only see the information it reproduces, while section 7 covered with a material with a color kipp effect will look black. This effect is illustrated in FIG. When examining a protective element through a polarizing filter that transmits only left-handed polarized light, you can only see the area on which layer 5 with the color kipp effect is located.
In another embodiment, you can use a thermochromic material, which at a normal ambient temperature looks light or has some color and becomes transparent only at a temperature above a certain temperature of its activation. In this case, under the influence of heat, the previously visible information disappears.
As shown in FIG. 5, in contrast to the sequence of layers shown in FIG. 2, a liquid crystal layer 5 with a color kipp effect can first be applied to the black-coated base 3, and only then a thermochromic liquid crystal layer 4 can be applied on top of it. Which layer sequence give preference, depends on the use of the protective element, respectively, on production capabilities and can be determined individually in each case. The location of the thermochromic layer between the base and the layer with the color Kipp effect allows in some cases to extend the time during which the thermochromic effect will appear, since the layer with the color Kipp effect can serve as a kind of heat insulator. It is obvious, however, that the time during which the thermochromic effect will manifest itself substantially depends on other factors, such as the amount of heat supplied to the thermochromic layer, its thickness, and others. In all other respects, the effects observed in this embodiment, which include the color kipp effect, the effect of manifestation / disappearance of information caused by thermochromic properties, and polarization of light, are comparable with the effects manifested in the embodiment shown in Fig. 2.
In the layered structure shown in FIG. 6, a dark, preferably black, impression 6 in the form of patterns and / or signs is applied to the base 3 in the first stage. In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, a solid black layer was used for the same purpose. On top of this print 6, a continuous layer 4 of thermochromic material is applied, and on top of it is a continuous layer 5 with a color kipp effect. When using material transparent for normal ambient temperature to obtain thermochromic layer 4, layer 5 with optically variable properties looks against the background of areas occupied by a dark, respectively black print, like a "juicy" layer with a clearly visible color kipp effect and is practically invisible on the background of the plots on which only the light base is located. At a temperature above the temperature of the thermochromic material changing its color, the layer 4 made of it acquires a certain color and becomes clearly visible against the background of the areas occupied by the marking located below it, formed by the impression 6. The color kipp effect becomes indistinguishable to the naked eye. If the thermochromic material has the properties to provide the right circular polarization of light, this material at a temperature higher than its color change can be seen through the polarization filter against the background of the black print 6. If the material with the color kipp effect has properties, provide the left circular polarization of light this material, regardless of temperature, can also be seen through the corresponding polarizing filter against the background of the area occupied by the black print 6.
The presence of the protective element according to the invention not only has a thermochromic effect and a color kipp effect, but also additional polarizing effects, which can significantly increase the degree of protection provided by it against counterfeiting. In the variants shown in the drawings, which, however, are not limited by the scope of the invention, the liquid crystal thermochromic material can, for example, provide the right, and the liquid crystal material with a color kipp effect - the left circular polarization of light.
Similarly, the liquid crystal layers and / or at least one of the other layers may have other visual and / or automatic control properties, such as electrical conductivity, magnetism, luminescence, or other similar properties. To give the corresponding imprint of the electrical conductive properties, it is quite enough, for example, to add the required amount of carbon black pigments to the printing inks used for printing. As for the background layer, since it must first of all have a dark, preferably black, intrinsic color, it is possible to impart magnetic properties in an extremely simple way, using dark magnetic pigments instead of color pigments to produce it.
In certain embodiments of the invention, in which, for example, the protective elements offered therein are subjected to significant mechanical stresses or chemical influences when using the items provided with them, it is advisable to cover the liquid crystal materials with a protective layer. As such a protective layer, you can use a film applied by lamination on a protective element, or a layer of protective varnish. In this case, the layer of protective varnish can be applied in a continuous layer or only on separate sections of the protective element. When the thermochromic material and the material with an optically variable effect are arranged next to each other without their mutual overlapping with the protective varnish layer, only one of the materials can also be coated, for example, a thermochromic material. For applying a varnish protective layer, for example, UV-curable varnishes, hybrid varnishes, oil-based printing varnishes or dispersed varnishes of one, respectively two-component type can be used. The protective varnish layer is preferably applied by printing, for example, flexographic or offset printing.
The thermochromic layer can also be made of several thermochromic materials with different temperatures between them changing their color. In the same way, a thermochromic layer can be "composed" of several colorful layers, each of which consists of different thermochromic materials with different temperatures of their color change. In the most preferred embodiment, the thermochromic material sequentially acquires rainbow colors with increasing temperature, i.e. changes its color from colorless to red, then to yellow, then to green and finally to blue.
The invention also provides the ability to combine liquid crystal materials with different color kipp effects.

Project MOST is hosting their annual Empty Bowls event on Sunday, March 4 from 12 to 3 p.m. at the American Legion Hall in Amagansett. Local chefs and restaurants will rally together to offer delicious soups for the afternoon. This year the Wellness Foundation has joined as the nutrition partner. There will also be a selection of nutritious W soup options available.
"The Empty Bowls Event is truly a demonstration of the strong support Project MOST receives from the East End business community year after year," said Executive Director, Rebecca Morgan Taylor. "We have over 30 local restaurants and chefs who gather together each year to show their support for our students! We cannot thank them enough for their time and their enthusiasm."
This year will be a bit different with the first Empty Bowl Awards for Community Service - which will be awarded to East Hampton Town Board Councilwoman, Kathee Burke Gonzalez, and East Hampton Town Supervisor, Peter Van Scoyoc, for their continued support and understanding of the importance of after school programs in East Hampton.

Project MOST's New York State funding is in the process of being eliminated. The community's participation in this event will help to continue serving the children and families of East Hampton with high quality after school enrichment programs.
In addition to the soup, there will be donuts by Dreesen's and ices by Kona Ice. Tickets can be purchased at the door for $15 per adult and $5 for children 13 and under. Children under five are free. You can also take the delicious soup to go in a quart size for $15.
"This is a great day of family, fun and of course delicious soup! Bring your bowl and your enthusiasm for East Hampton after school," said Taylor.
Project MOST serves 350 students in the Town of East Hampton Monday through Friday throughout the school year. The non-profit organization holds an after school program at both the John M. Marshall Elementary School and the Springs School - where children have access to a variety of enrichment programming.
The American Legion Hall is located at 15 Montauk Highway, East Hampton.For more information, visit www.projectmost.com.
