Tennis players as Fëanorians (atp edition)

Fëanor: mr octopus himself, daniil medvedev. He gives off mad, doomed genius vibes. Haunts the narrative (ao 22, ao 24)

Maedhros: immediately my mind goes to jannik sinner for tall, redhead reasons

Maglor: grigor dimitrov. He's in a boyband, 1 handed backhand boys, enough said. Also balding (from stress), bisexual, bulgarian is such a maglor vibe.

Celegorm: denis shapovalov. Tall, blonde, should get a modelling contract apparently. I'm sure denis can talk to animals if he tried

Caranthir: i'm leaning towards andrey rublev for mr "quickest to anger". Red faced, red head, same thing

Curufin: stefanos "daddy issues" tsitsipas

Ambarussa:

Lincoln Ch D F: Robert Cash/James Tracy def. Luke Johnson/Ariel Behar 7-6(6), 6-3 Match Stats

📸 ATP official website

R. Cash/J.J. might have faced some troubles as they tried to serve for the first set, but they kept things under control thanks to their functional forehands that passed L. Johnson/A. Behar several times. Although their net game needs improvement (which could be done by experience), their volleys were still sufficient to back up their baseline exchanges, even executing some drive volleys in time in hopes to bring the latter off-balance. This way, they created a whopping 13 break points compared to the first seeds' 5, most of which forcing the deciding point on L. Johnson/A. Behar's serves, breaking twice, once in both sets as they controlled the flow.

Besides, R. Cash/J.J. had more solid service games throughout the match. Even though L. Johnson/A. Behar scored 5 aces than the unseeded pair's 1, the latter's serving accuracy, some of which included the unreturned serves, allowed them to win 2% more first serve points at 71%, which helped them survive some deciding points on their serves. However, due to their 7 double faults, the first seeds could only win 35% points behind their second serves, 29% lesser than R. Cash/J.J., making it even more vulnerable as R. Cash/J.J. got firmer in the second set.

This marked R. Cash/J.J.'s maiden Challenger-level title, which came right after their main Tour-level finals. With these accolades right as they started professional-level tennis, they received a wild card to the Cincinnati M1000, where they take on eighth seeds Max Purcell/Jordan Thompson in the first round. Recognizing the Australians' experience, this could be a tough feat, but it should also be an exciting match to look forward to!

Researchers use earth’s magnetic field to verify Old Testament event - Technology Org

Researchers use earth’s magnetic field to verify Old Testament event - Technology Org

Research from Tel Aviv University (TAU) and three other Israeli universities will enable archaeologists to identify burnt materials discovered in excavations and estimate their firing temperatures. The new technique can determine whether a certain item, such as a mud brick, underwent a firing event even at relatively low temperatures, from 200°C (about 400°F) and higher. This information can be crucial for correctly interpreting the findings.

Applying their method to findings from ancient Gath (Tell es-Safi in central Israel), the researchers validated the Biblical account from 2 Kings 12,18: “About this time Hazael King of Aram went up and attacked Gath and captured it. Then he turned to attack Jerusalem.” (2 Kings 12, 18).

Dr. Yoav Vaknin led the multidisciplinary study from the Sonia and Marco Nadler Institute of Archaeology, Entin Faculty of Humanities, at TAU and the Palaeomagnetic Laboratory at The Hebrew University. Other contributors included Professor Ron Shaar from the Institute of Earth Sciences at The Hebrew University, Professors Erez Ben-Yosef and Oded Lipschits from the Nadler Institute at TAU, Professor Aren Maeir from the Martin (Szusz) Department of Land of Israel Studies and Archaeology at Bar-Ilan University, and Dr. Adi Eliyahu Behar from the Department of Land of Israel Studies and Archaeology and the Department of Chemical Sciences at Ariel University. The paper has been published in the scientific journal PLOS ONE.

“Throughout the Bronze and Iron Ages, the main building material in most parts of the Land of Israel was mud bricks,” Professor Lipschits explains. “This cheap and readily available material was used to build walls in most buildings, sometimes on top of stone foundations. That’s why it’s so important to understand the technology used in making these bricks.”

The new method measures the magnetic field recorded and “locked” in the brick as it burned and cooled down. In the second stage of the procedure, the researchers gradually “erase” the brick’s magnetic field using a process called thermal demagnetization. This involves heating the brick in a special oven that neutralizes the earth’s magnetic field. The heat releases the magnetic signals, which once again arrange themselves randomly, canceling each other out, and the total magnetic signal becomes weak and loses its orientation.

The researchers fired mud bricks under controlled temperature and magnetic field conditions, measured each brick’s acquired magnetic field, then gradually erased it. They found that the bricks were completely demagnetized at the temperature at which they had been burned, proving that the method works.

“Our approach enables identifying burning which occurred at much lower temperatures than any other method,” Dr. Vaknin says. “Most techniques used for identifying burnt bricks are based on actual changes in the minerals, which usually occur at temperatures higher than 500°C [932°F], when some minerals are converted into others.”

After proving the method’s validity, the researchers applied it to a specific archaeological dispute: Whether a specific brick structure discovered at Tell es-Safi — identified as the Philistine city of Gath, home of Goliath — was built of pre-fired bricks or burned on location. The prevalent hypothesis, based on the Old Testament, historical sources, and carbon-14 dating attributes the destruction of the structure to the devastation of Gath by Hazael, King of Aram Damascus, around 830 BCE. But a previous paper by researchers including Professor Maeir, head of the Tell es-Safi excavations, proposed that the building had not burned down, but rather collapsed over decades, and that the fired bricks found in the structure had been fired in a kiln prior to construction. If this hypothesis were correct, this would be the earliest instance of brick-firing technology discovered in the Land of Israel.

To settle the dispute, the current research team applied the new method to samples from the wall at Tell es-Safi and the collapsed debris found beside it. The findings were conclusive: The magnetic fields of all bricks and collapsed debris displayed the same orientation, north and downwards. “Our findings signify that the bricks burned and cooled down in-situ, right where they were found, namely in a conflagration in the structure itself, which collapsed within a few hours,” Dr. Vaknin says. “Had the bricks been fired in a kiln and then laid in the wall, their magnetic orientations would have been random. Moreover, had the structure collapsed over time, not in a single fire event, the collapsed debris would have displayed random magnetic orientations.

“We believe that the main reason for our colleagues’ mistaken interpretation was their inability to identify burning at temperatures below 500°C. Since heat rises, materials at the bottom of the building burned at relatively low temperatures, below 400°C, and consequently the former study did not identify them as burnt. At the same time, bricks in upper parts of the wall, where temperatures were much higher, underwent mineralogical changes and were therefore identified as burnt, leading the researchers to conclude that they had been fired in a kiln prior to construction. Our method allowed us to determine that all bricks in both the wall and debris had burned during the conflagration: those at the bottom burned at relatively low temperatures, and those that were found in higher layers or had fallen from the top – at temperatures higher than 600°C.”

“Our findings are very important for deciphering the intensity of the fire and scope of destruction at Gath, the largest and most powerful city in the Land of Israel at the time, as well as understanding the building methods prevailing in that era,” Professor Maeir concludes. “It’s important to review conclusions from previous studies, and sometimes even refute former interpretations, even if they came from your own school.”

During an online program promoting the petition effort, University of California, Berkeley, professor Judith Butler engaged in the very stereotyping behavior that is fueling the debate. Jews who are Zionists inherently cannot be good, she said.

“It’s not because they’re Jewish that they’re wrong. It’s because they’re Zionists. And as Jews, they have a chance not to be Zionists. So we should be encouraging that position because that’s the only possible, just position.”

Remi Kanazi, a poet, wasn’t so polite: “Zionism is the real demographic threat infecting the minds of millions with racism,” he said during Wednesday’s program.

Zionism is the belief in Jewish self-determination in their ancestral homeland. It is a principle supported by roughly 90 percent of Jews worldwide.

But, like Butler, the petitioners want to maintain their ability to use social media to bash the overwhelming majority of the world’s Jews.

“@lsarsour can’t even hold a rally against racism without expressing her own bigotry,” the group Democratic Majority for Israel wrote. “Her organization banned 95% of American Jews from an event they hosted.”

It is historically tone deaf and somewhat ironic to mark an event celebrating emancipation and protesting discrimination by engaging in it. But that’s what the group Muslims4Abolition did by excluding Jews who support Israel.

“No Zionists” — essentially banning Jews — invokes other dark periods in American history in which minorities endured discrimination.

Linda Sarsour is an antisemite who cannot help but attach herself to antisemitic bigotry. “What her organization did this week by specifically excluding those who support Israel’s right to exist needs to be called out by everyone, especially by those who refuse to support it,” wrote Wendy Kalman in The Times of Israel. “Because this is wrong. Just wrong.”

It’s not realistic to expect Sarsour to change. But she still enjoys a profile prominent enough to win a book contract from a major publisher. Her organization’s embrace of a discriminatory demonstration is just more evidence that she takes advantage of her platform to spread hatred.

After firmly holding their serves to 1-0, R. Cash/J.J. continued their firm showing as they benefited from L. Johnson/A. Behar double fault somewhere in this match, passing the first seed through their forehand side to create their break point before they broke thanks to a working smash to 2-0. They then smoothly held their service game to 3-0, where the only point they conceded on serve came due to a double fault.

They had not looked back since then, having earned an opportunity to serve for the match at the ninth game. Even though L. Johnson/A. Behar smashed their way to set up another one-point lead, R. Cash/J.J. had a forehand pass to create their match point, which was immediately converted with an ace to take the second set 6-3, as well as securing their maiden Challenger-level title.
