9point8′s latest dropper post introduces a new take on mechanical actuation. The 125-millimeter stroke Fall Line dropper is infinitely adjustable, like its hydraulic counterparts, but the mechanism is a cable actuated "brake" that expands to lock the post in place. "There is a little more to it than that," was the only information I could pry from the engineers on hand. The mechanical action reportedly saves 150 grams over the hydraulically actuated Pulse, and it has remarkably few parts. Actuation is via a handlebar-mounted lever that ca be easily configured to the right or left side of the handlebar, and either above or below the grip. The Fall Line uses "stealth" internal cable routing and the cable controls simply thread out from the inside of the post for replacement or inspection. The housing threads into a special ferrule, so the user cannot yank the housing out of place and prevent the post from locking as happens to a certain competitor who’s three-letter name I will not mention. Diameters are 30.9 and 31.6 millimeters and the price is $325 USD. Weight is TBD, but 150 grams less than the Pulse is around 450 grams, plus the mounting hardware.

One way to reduce the risk of a pH level-related health issue is to test the water yourself. Bring pH strips to see if the water’s pH is between 6 and 8. Other ways to protect yourself from pool irritants include wearing goggles while swimming, never drinking the water, and showering afterward. 

In 2006, yet another of Kobold’s celebrity acquaintances — he has cultivated quite a few — called him for a favor. Conservative radio and TV pundit Glenn Beck had the idea to raise money for victims of the September 11 terror attacks and asked Kobold if he would supply a watch to sell for the fundraising effort. Fortunately, Kobold had the perfect project waiting in the wings. “I had registered the name ‘Spirit of America’ many years ago,” he says. “I asked [Beck] if he’d like a whole line of watches with that name instead of just one. He jumped at it. I decided then that I couldn’t just put out a Swiss-made watch, call it Spirit of America and sell it for a 9/11 charity. It’s too gimmicky. So that was the first Kobold watch assembled entirely in the United States — which was a big deal, because we had just started our in-house repair facilities here in Pittsburgh.” That first Spirit of America model was a limited series, sold basically at cost; Kobold claims he neither made nor wanted any profit on it. Several early models worn by celebrities were auctioned off, with proceeds donated to the United Services Organization of New York City. Still, Kobold didn’t believe there would be a demand for more. “I never thought it would become a huge seller because it’s not a typical Kobold watch, in the sense that it doesn’t have a particular function,” he says. “It doesn’t even have a seconds hand. But it was a huge success. That’s when I realized the ‘Swiss Made’ on the dial isn’t always necessary. I’ve wanted to make an American-made watch for a while, but I thought the market wasn’t ready for it. I was wrong. So I decided to accelerate the progress we were already making.” That progress, which I witnessed at the Kobold facilities in a still-industrial corner of Pittsburgh’s Robinson Township, now includes the construction of the watch case, whose pieces are now 100 percent made in the U.S.A., including the crown, crown tubes, lug bars and screws. The stainless steel used in the case construction is made from raw materials mined in Western Pennsylvania. The domed sapphire crystal is grown, cut and polished here as well.

The Old Croton Aqueduct, photographed June 27, 2018, was a conduit providing New York City with all of its water from the Croton Reservoir from 1842 to 1955. The aqueduct, was built by hand by largely immigrant workers from 1837-1842. The tunnel is approximately eight feel high and seven fee wide.  (Photo: Seth Harrison/The Journal News)

Not [Alexander Shabarshin] though. He’s set himself the task of creating an entire CPU solely from NAND gates, and he’s using 74F00 chips to give a hoped-for 1MIPS performance.  His design has an 8-bit data bus but a 4-bit ALU, and an impressive 2-stage pipeline and RISC instruction set which sets it apart from the computers most of us had when 74-series logic was a much more recent innovation. So far he has completed PCBs for a D-type flip-flop and a one-bit ALU, four of which will work in parallel in the final machine

Courtesy shuttles are available for guests needing assistance at select pick-up locations around the Miller Park grounds. Please see the Miller Park Parking Map for Courtesy Shuttle locations. Shuttles will only pick up from these locations and drop guests at the nearest entrance to Miller Park. After games, shuttles will pick up guests needing assistance at the Robin Yount Statue on the Home Plate Plaza and at the Center Field Plaza by the Associated Bank Check Deck, and return them to the original pick-up locations.
