ESF Researchers Receive GLRC Grant

ESF Researchers Receive GLRC Grant 5/24/2021 A team of researchers from the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry was among those receiving grants from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Syracuse-based Great Lakes Research Consortium (GLRC). The ESF team, led by Assistant Professor Alexander B. Artyukhin, Department of Chemistry, received $24,789 to test a combined technology process for detecting new and unknown water pollutants missed by traditional screening practices that target known contaminants. Dr. John Hassett, Department of Chemistry, and Dr. Lemir Teron, Department of Environmental Studies will also be working on the project. The team will analyze samples from Onondaga Lake and Lake Ontario to test the feasibility of using untargeted mass spectrometry technology paired with molecular networking to discover potential new pollutants, derivatives, or metabolites.

But today, Greenidge is back up and running as a Bitcoin mining operation. The facility hums with energy-hungry computers that confirm and record Bitcoin transactions, drawing power from the plant’s 106-megawatt generator now fueled by natural gas.

Before The Girl on the Train, there was the play Gas Light and its two film adaptations

Charles Boyer and Ingrid Bergman in Gaslight (1944) | Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Caution: potential spoilers ahead for ‘The Girl on the Train’. The recent Netflix release The Girl on the Train is an official adaptation of Paula Hawkins’s novel of the same name. The bestseller revolved around a concept introduced in a play in 1938 that was made widely known by movie adaptations in 1940 and 1944. Patrick Hamilton’s Gas Light gave the English vocabulary a ready shorthand term to describe psychological damage caused by sustained emotional manipulation and deception. The word “gaslighting” is now commonly used to refer to a form of abuse that makes the targets party to their own destruction. Gaslighting is a state especially familiar to women, who are often told by the men in their lives that they don’t know or mean what they say and are being needlessly anxious or paranoid.
