Though silent films convey narrative and emotion visually, various plot elements (such as a setting or era) or key lines of dialogue may, when necessary, be conveyed by the use of inter-title cards. The term "silent film" is something of a misnomer, as these films were almost always accompanied by live sounds. During the silent era, which existed from the mid-1890s to the late 1920s, a pianist, theater organistbor even, in larger cities, an orchestrabwould play music to accompany the films. Pianists and organists would play either from sheet music, or improvisation. Sometimes a person would even narrate the inter-title cards for the audience. Though at the time the technology to synchronize sound with the film did not exist, music was seen as an essential part of the viewing experience. "Silent film" is typically used as a historical term to describe an era of cinema prior to the invention of synchronized sound, but it also applies to such sound-era films as City Lights, Modern Times and Silent Movie which are accompanied by a music-only soundtrack in place of dialogue. The term silent film is a retronymba term created to retroactively distinguish something from later developments.

Within a decade, the widespread production of silent films for popular entertainment had ceased, and the industry had moved fully into the sound era, in which movies were accompanied by synchronized sound recordings of spoken dialogue, music and sound effects. Most early motion pictures are considered lost owing to their physical decay, as the nitrate filmstock used in that era was extremely unstable and flammable. Many films were destroyed, because they had negligible remaining financial value in that era. It has often been claimed that around 75 percent of silent films produced in the US have been lost, though these estimates' accuracy cannot be determined due to a lack of numerical data.

He also argued that the ceremonies could not be changed. Grand Secretaries Mao Ji (??) and Shi Bao (??) did not support the emperor. Scholars from the Hanlin Academy and opposition officials in the Censorate and ministries protested the change, which was seen as a disruption of proper ceremonies. As a result, the emperor had eight critics arrested. On 14 August, the protests reached their peak. Approximately 232 officials, which accounted for about a tenth of the Beijing government staff, remained outside the audience hall at Zuoshun Gate after the morning audience. They knelt for four hours, chanting the names of the Hongwu and Hongzhi emperors. They refused to leave without a written order, but even after it was issued, they did not leave and instead began pounding on the palace doors. The emperor's patience eventually ran out and he ordered the Embroidered Uniform Guard to arrest all of them. He then dismissed both high- and low-ranking officials. Five days later, he had 134 middle-ranking officials beaten, resulting in the death of 17 of them. All participants in the demonstration faced punishment in various forms, such as demotion, transfer outside of Beijing, being sent to the border, or being expelled from the civil service. This event is known as the "Zuoshun Gate Incident". The ceremony on 15 August was held in accordance with the emperor's wishes. Senior Grand Secretary, Mao Ji, resigned with honor on 23 August and was replaced by Fei Hong. Fei Hong had skillfully navigated between the emperor and the official opposition during the disputes.

Zhu Houzong was the son of Zhu Youyuan, Prince of Xing, who had died in 1519. Zhu Youyuan was the younger brother of the Hongzhi Emperor and the uncle of the Zhengde Emperor. The installation of the Jiajing Emperor was decided by Senior Grand Secretary Yang Tinghe and Empress Dowager Zhang, who was the widow of the Hongzhi Emperor and the mother of the Zhengde Emprror. This decision was supported by existing ministers and officials who were concerned about potential disputes over the throne. Zhu Houcong resided in his estate in Anlu, located in central China. On the day of the emperor's death, Yang Tinghe, with the backing of the eunuchs from the Directorate of Ceremonial and Empress Dowager Zhang, issued an edict inviting the prince to Beijing to take the throne. On 7 May, Zhu Houcong was visited by a delegation in Anlu, who informed him of Empress Dowager Zhang's edict. He agreed to ascend the throne and set off for Beijing. On 26 May, when he was only 30 km away from the city, officials from the Ministry of Rites informed him of the plans for further action, and the first disputes arose. Zhu Houcong insisted on entering the city through the main gate as emperor, rather than the side gate as prince. Despite the insistence of Yang Tinghe, who personally arrived at the suburbs, Zhu Houcong did not yield. He was able to secure his entry into the city with imperial honors on 27 May 1521, and on the same day, he ceremoniously ascended the throne. Yang Tinghe insisted that the new emperor be officially adopted by the Hongzhi Emperor in order to establish his legitimacy as the younger brother of the late Zhengde Empe ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 20 Sep 2025 09:40:06 -0500 From: "DarkForce Night Vision" Subject: Transform Your Night Adventures - 90% OFF DarkForce Binos!

(By 2008, the librarians of Congress had found replacements for all but 300 of the works that had been documented as being in Jefferson's original collection.) This marked the start of a conservative period in the library's administration by librarian John Silva Meehan and joint committee chairman James A. Pearce, who restricted the library's activities. Meehan and Pearce's views about a restricted scope for the Library of Congress reflected those shared by members of Congress. While Meehan was a librarian, he supported and perpetuated the notion that "the congressional library should play a limited role on the national scene and that its collections, by and large, should emphasize American materials of obvious use to the U.S. Congress." In 1859, Congress transferred the library's public document distribution activities to the Department of the Interior and its international book exchange program to the Department of State. During the 1850s, Smithsonian Institution librarian Charles Coffin Jewett aggressively tried to develop the Smithsonian as the United States national library. His efforts were rejected by Smithsonian secretary Joseph Henry, who advocated a focus on scientific research and publication.

The principle of stroboscopic animation was well-known since the introduction of the phenakistiscope in 1833, a popular optical toy, but the development of cinematography was hampered by long exposure times for photographic emulsions, until Eadweard Muybridge managed to record a chronophotographic sequence in 1878. After others had animated his pictures in zoetropes, Muybridge started lecturing with his own zoopraxiscope animation projector in 1880.

Is Your "Healthy" Home Cooking Putting Your Health at Risk? Hi, You might be eating plastic. Not from takeout. Not from packaging. From your own kitchen. A Flinders University study found thata single scratch on an everyday non-stick pan can release over 9,000 microplastic particles into your food. One single scratch. Use that pan daily? You could be swallowing millions of microplastics every month. And those particles don't just pass through your body. They build up in your brain, your blood, and your organs. The Nature Medicine journal found that the amount of microplastic in brain tissue has skyrocketed 50% in the last 8 years. Even worse? People with dementia had up to 10x more microplastic in their brains than healthy individuals. That's not all: Italian researchers found people with microplastics in their arteries were 450% more likely to suffer a heart attack or stroke And here's the scariest part: We have no way of removing these particles once they're inside us. They're tiny. Invisible. And they're not going anywhere. Some people switch to cast iron - but that brings its own issues. It's heavy, rusts easily, and can leach excess iron, which isn't always safe, especially for women. So what's the safer alternative? My friends at Chef's Foundry created the P600 Non-Toxic Ceramic Cookware - designed specifically to help people like us cook without fear of leaching chemicals, plastics, or heavy metals. Unlike regular non-stick pans, these have no PFAS, no PFOA, no PTFE, and no toxic coatings that break down or flake into your food. Instead, they use an advanced Xeradur-2b" ceramic coating that's heat-resistant, scratch-resistant, and completely non-toxic - even at high temperatures. That means no plastics in your omelets. No chemicals in your stir-fries.

Some scholars claim that the artistic quality of cinema decreased for several years, during the early 1930s, until film directors, actors, and production staff adapted fully to the new "talkies" around the mid-1930s. Aziza Amir in Laila (1927) The visual quality of silent moviesbespecially those produced in the 1920sbwas often high, but there remains a widely held misconception that these films were primitive, or are barely watchable by modern standards. This misconception comes from the general public's unfamiliarity with the medium, as well as from carelessness on the part of the industry. Most silent films are poorly preserved, leading to their deterioration, and well-preserved films are often played back at the wrong speed or suffer from censorship cuts and missing frames and scenes, giving the appearance of poor editing. Many silent films exist only in second- or third-generation copies, often made from already damaged and neglected film stock. Many early screenings were plagued by flicker on the screen, when the stroboscopic interruptions between frames lay below the critical flicker frequency. This was solved with the introduction of a three-bladed shutter (since 1902), causing two more interrupti ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V14 #16715 ***********************************************
