It is with sadness, again, that we report Hammertown has lost one of its family. Snooker Lehman, Brooke and Gregg's dog , passed away peacefully this past Wednesday. Surrounded by family and friends, outside by the rambling brook at The Watershed, we said a sad goodbye to Snooker.
Sixteen-year-old Snooker had a good life. Originally adopted from a pet store by Brooke's father, she lived her early years on the Upper East Side. When Snooker's Dad passed away, she moved with her new mom (Brooke) to the Lower East Side and was the resident dog at the famous bookstore, Bluestockings. While there Snooker developed quite a loyal following of fans. She was always well dressed, but was best known for her hooded blacked sweater with a skull on it.
About 8 years ago, Snooker began spending more time in the Hudson Valley. Here is where she really found her stride and we discovered her love of jazz when she sang with John Coltrane recordings. She appeared several times here in our blog and expanded her fan base with posts like this from 2009: Snooker's Shocking Confession: I want to be the next Susan Boyle"
Her tiny body loved to walk and hike and explore. She was always very social, very confident and led the life she wanted. She was a tiny dog with tiny legs, but she walked a big life. Our Hammertown family loved her. Rhonda Cayea called Snooker "an icon". Drew (who recently lost his Boston Terrier, Junior) said "Snooker will be chasing sticks with Junior" and Brooke said her "Dad will be happy to see Snooker".
More from Snooker's Mom, Brooke Lehman –
After a few years of gradual demise, we put Snooker to sleep yesterday by our stream, after a bacon breakfast and a delicious nap in the sun. From her early days strutting her stuff in Central Park and charming crusty punks at Bluestockings, to her later days frog hunting and turtle cuddling at Watershed, Snook lived the life of a rock star. She sang to Coltrane with enviable soul and obeyed no one when it did not suit her. She was sweetness to the core with so many friends and lovers (mammal and reptile alike) that I was #50 on her Facebook Fan Page (https://www.facebook.com/Snooker-357408803992/).
Cheers to a class act. We will miss you forever Snoogi-boogs!!!

A pristine facade: behind one student leader's battle with pressure, mental illness and self-medication
BY Managing News Editor
The field of geology examines more than just hunks of rock— it zeroes in on Earth's physical architecture and the processes that make up its complex, corporeal system. One of the most fundamental geological concepts that affects these mechanisms is the certainty that, beneath the seemingly solid ground, seas of boiling, pressurized rock undulate, pushing and pulling the plates that we humans live and die on.
For the most part, people don't notice what's happening beneath our feet. But, sometimes, when the pressure is too great, a fault slips or magma bubbles up, and we get a hint of what lies beneath Earth's pristine exterior.
Corey, a university senior whose name I've changed to protect his privacy, usually wears a put-together outfit — the day we met up he was clad in khaki pants and a quarter-zip sweater. He gets straight As, is employed by the university and holds leadership positions within various campus organizations. On the surface, he's a well-coiffed, well-spoken and well-rounded campus leader.
But, as geology has proven, the surface only tells a sliver of any story.
One evening as a junior, Corey was studying in the library around 6 p.m. It was finals week — one of the most stressful periods of time on the college calendar. He felt building pressure, and suddenly, he couldn't move. Corey wanted to continue working, or at least avoid drawing attention to himself.
He willed his muscles to obey — they didn't. It was like his body had turned to stone and was damned to an eternity on the third floor of Morris Library.
Eventually, he fell out of his seat, curled into fetal position and laid on the carpeted floor. His only thoughts were of escape.
"It was just 'I can't do this anymore,'" Corey said. "I want to be anywhere except in this moment, in this life."
Corey's college-related struggles began in 2008, when his family lost a substantial amount of money in the recession. Because of this, his parents, who he said are extremely successful in their own careers, had to pull money from their retirement fund to send him to school.
"That started kind of an expectation that whatever job I go into, I would be paying for their retirement," he said. "So, I've always felt pressure to be successful, to make money, to provide for my family."
He decided to be an engineer because he comes from a family of engineers. When he worked hard but didn't get the grades he needed, Corey switched to business — a major he excels in, but dislikes.
Under intense career pressure from his parents, and dealing with a bad breakup and friendship issues, Corey began to show what he now knows are signs of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Throughout his junior year, he was using alcohol as a coping mechanism. When he was stressed, it would make him feel "at rest with things" until the next morning, when incomplete tasks would stress him out and restart the vicious cycle.
Eventually he felt like he needed to drink before any social interaction, but, because he drank one to three drinks per day, Corey convinced himself he was fine.
"Whenever I talked to people when I hadn't been drinking, I was rigid and I didn't want to talk to people," he said. "And so I started drinking before I left to get coffee with a friend because then I'd be sociable, I'd be nicer, I'd be the person people wanted me to be."
While drinking daily to drown out his problems, he was mentoring and teaching students about such issues as well as offering his support. He likes helping people and keeping a busy schedule, he said, because that's easier than facing his own inner turmoil.
"I'm one of the biggest cliches," he said. "My job is to make sure that I'm a resource for other people when people are in my position. Now that I'm a senior and at the top, I'm the person that you call when things go wrong. Who am I supposed to turn to when my life goes wrong?"
Corey confides in few people about his mental health problems because he doesn't want his family and friends to see him as "broken" or "overly burdening." And, for the people he leads, he puts a lot of effort into keeping his surface intact because he fears they won't be comfortable confiding in him if they find out.
"It's not really about what other people might think of me, it's more about how I see myself with other people," he said. "As soon as I start talking about it, I'm no longer acting like I'm perfect. I'm no longer acting like the superstar who can solve people's problems. The facade is crap."
Right now, Corey doesn't consider himself to be truly happy, but he does feel he's improving.
He sees an off-campus therapist, who has helped him reduce to one drink per day, and has found that certain habits, such as working out regularly, help him. He said he recently was able to talk to a struggling friend about his own experiences with mental illness, which he thinks is a sign that he's healing.
Five years from today, if the universe works in his favor, Corey said he'd like to live in a city house with a grassy backyard and an Audi parked out front.
He'd live in the house with a dog — when he was little he would've named it Shadow, but today he thinks that's too common of a name. He'd also be living with someone he loves, and they'd be thinking about starting a family together. He'd fund the house, the car and the family by starting his own medical technology company.
Corey said that he believes there's a subset of students like him who, for whatever reason, don't have any public or private platforms to speak about the innermost layers of their lives. People who, bubbling beneath their polished surfaces, have narratives and pieces of themselves and their lives they've never dared to talk about.
"I know that there's some subsection of people out there, at the top or whatever, who don't have anywhere to go and who can't talk about [their struggles] publicly," he said.
College Uncovered is a platform to examine emotions, experiences and stories that cannot otherwise be disclosed. Through giving students the opportunity to speak anonymously about the parts of themselves they keep hidden, it digs deep into what it means to be on the edge of adulthood today.

Hospital release Apex/Unknown Error's The Yearning (Super VIP) to raise awareness of mental health issues in music
Words by Mat Taylor
In 2017 Drum and Bass fans around the world were left heartbroken after the tragic death of Rob Dickeson, also known as Apex, Unknown Error and his techno alias, Robert Oaks. To celebrate his incredible contribution to our music, Hospital records are releasing a super VIP version of the heartfelt, timeless anthem, the Yearning, plus the laid back and mellow track Echoes.
As mental health issues gain more media coverage every day, attitudes are slowly beginning to change. This release will see all proceeds go to Help Musicians UK in support of their Music Minds Matter campaign. If you read the music press you'll have seen more and more established DJs opening up about their problems with conditions like depression, anxiety, substance abuse and addiction. As somebody who has suffered from depression and anxiety for most of my adult life, I fully support this kind of initiative. I've also lost a friend to suicide and understand the feelings of frustration, guilt and deep sadness that surround such tragedies.
For a lot of people, music is an escape from negative feelings or experiences and this is definitely true of many of Apex's fans. Browsing the forums and message boards for a few minutes will show you just how much his music meant to people and how much he will be missed. Thankfully his legacy of unique, diverese music is still available and sounds as fresh and original now as it did when he first produced it. This is a must have release that will raise money for a great cause and I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I'd like to see more of this kind of action within drum and bass.
Katarina, Apex's partner said:
"I hope that this record will raise awareness that help is out there. If you, or someone you love, finds themself in a situation where life just seems impossible, don't forget that you are not alone, and that there is help."
If you feel like you need to talk to somebody about your mental health, please do everything you can to seek help. Now that attitudes are changing, support is available. Things still need to improve dramatically, though, which is why campaigns like this are so important. No matter who you are, where you live or what you do, the chances are that you or somebody you know will experience a mental health problem at some point in their lives.
Music Minds Matter is specifically tailored for those working in the music industry in the UK. They operate a 24 hour helpline service 0808 802 8008
For men experiencing mental health issues, CALM provide telephone based and webchat support.
0800 58 58 58
MIND are the UK's leading mental health charity and can also provide help and support to those who experience mental health difficulties themselves or those supporting others who may be struggling.
This link offers clear, simple information on what you can do if you think you need some help for yourself.
Having played Apex/Unknown Error's tunes out and about over the years, I know the kind of reaction they can create on a dancefloor. Do yourself a favour and play this one as loud as you possibly can to celebrate the life and work of a legend.
The VIP version of the yearning is exclusive to the limited edition vinyl so you'll need to be quick if you want one. The release is available directly from Hospital, plus selected record shops from the 20th of April 2018.

There's nothing particularly feminine about Sweet Science boxing gym in North Portland. The first thing that hits you as you enter is the noise, the thwack-thwack-thwack as boxing glove leather strikes punching bags. And there's yelling -- boxers and trainers shouting to be heard above the punching, the white noise of jump ropes striking the floor, the loud music and the electronic beep of the timer clock.
Take a look around the gym's airy main room and you'll find a good number of women among the muscular male boxers. Sitting on a mat is Laurie Gold, the gym's owner, play-boxing with a little girl wearing a pair of adult boxing gloves. In another corner, two women in padded headgear slowly circle each other, gloves raised.
These days, women of all ages and fitness levels are turning to boxing or boxing-style training for a mentally engaging full-body workout. And by learning to fight, many of these newly minted boxers are discovering strengths they didn't know they had.
Gold, 54, has been boxing for 18 years. She has run Sweet Science gym, where she employs seven male trainers, for 9 1/2. She says that seven of the nine people in her most recent beginner class were women. Her other classes, which used to be 80 percent men, are now 50-50.
Vonda Ward, a certified personal trainer in Ohio, says women make up half of her fitness boxing clientele. Her students range in age from 14 to 72. "All age groups," she says. "People just love it."
Rookie boxer Laura Neish sure does. Neish, 49, of Damascus, took up boxing three months ago at Cascade Athletic Club in Gresham with the help of her personal trainer, Chris Brookhyser. She'd heard it was a good overall workout, and figured she'd give it a try. Before her first session was over, "I was extremely addicted," Neish says.
Neish heard right: Boxing is a good overall workout. Fitness boxing -- boxing training that doesn't involve hitting another person -- can burn up to 500 calories in a half-hour. Fitness boxing activities can vary, but usually include striking the heavy bag and speed bag, hitting the catch mitts with a trainer or partner, jumping rope and doing sit-ups, says Ward, a former women's professional boxing champion with a record of 23-1 (17 knock-outs) over a decade-long career. "I always make it a full-body workout."
She begins by showing students the basic punches. As they progress, she introduces punch combinations, offense and defense, and footwork, which combine for a challenging, complicated choreography.
Once her students grasp these fundamentals, Ward puts them through a circuit of up to four stations. One person runs on the treadmill, one hits catch mitts with Ward, one works the abs, and the fourth works legs -- doing lunges, step-ups or stepovers. After a minute, everyone switches stations.
Boxers achieve fitness through interval training -- raising the heart rate with intense exercise followed by a short recovery time.
"You work to 100 percent and then you rest," Gold says. "It's about pace. It's about endurance."
It pays off. "I think boxers are among the athletes that are in top shape," Ward says. "Go three-minute rounds hitting the heavy bag or the catch mitts and you'll see it takes a lot out of you. And that heavy bag's not hitting back ... so imagine somebody punching back."
And boxing has an appeal that many workouts lack: "It's less boring," Gold says.
Because boxing requires such intense focus -- on making your arms, legs and body work together in an offensive attack while protecting yourself from blows (real, or in the case of fitness boxing, imagined) -- time spent training seems to go by much more quickly than when churning out miles on the treadmill or counting reps in weight training.
Maiko Minami, 39, one of the women sparring at Sweet Science gym, says it's been hard for her to keep going to a conventional gym and doing "one thing or another."
She and her husband both take lessons, and she says that "learning something," in addition to working out, keeps her motivated.
Then there are the health benefits. Since beginning personal training with Brookhyser five months ago, Neish's health has improved dramatically. In the beginning, she says, she was "considerably overweight and completely out of shape" and could barely make it up her gym's stairs.
But since she took up exercise again, she has lost three dress sizes, two of those since starting boxing. "It has toned my body incredibly," she says. In addition, her balance and coordination have gotten better.
Gold is thinking of adding a boxing class for seniors next year because the movements could help fight the deterioration of balance, flexibility and mental focus that come with aging. She also says that boxing might benefit people with Parkinson's disease. In fact, studies have linked boxing training to improvements in some Parkinson's patients.
Then there's the fun factor. Ward says a single training session can improve a client's mood, and that's one of the things she likes the most about her job. She will even wear a full body shield to allow her clients to get the sensation of hitting a real person. She won't get hurt, she says, and it's fun for them.
Neish remembers how she felt the first time she hit the heavy bag: "I just stopped and I went, 'This can't be right. It feels so good to do this. Should I be enjoying this?' I didn't think I would because I can't stand watching boxing. ... But I LOVE the hitting."
Neish calls boxing her therapy: "When I'm having a rough day -- or if I'm angry -- it's a good place to take it out without hurting anybody's feelings or breaking things."
As beginning boxers focus on getting fit, they may not realize they are learning how to fight for real. And with this knowledge comes power -- and a newfound confidence. "If you ever have to use it, you know you have some skills," Ward says. "You carry yourself with a lot more confidence in just your everyday life."
At 49, Neish worried she was too old to try something new. On top of that, she had recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia (which she's had for six years), and she struggles with chronic pain. But since donning the boxing gloves -- hers are pink -- she began to feel more confident.
"I love what it does for me mentally, and I love what it does for my physically, and overall the feeling of empowerment," she says.
"It's changed my life in ways that I can't even name ... and it's just a silly little sport. But oh my goodness, it's made a huge difference."

Soap was not only a ground-breaking series in terms of its writing, cast and subject matter, but also it is one of those programs that has become an important part of American culture.
As a program steeped in controversy, millions grew up being told not to watch it. As a result, millions watched it anyway to see what all the fuss was about. Because of that, millions still cherish it today as their own personal discovery.
Do you remember how you first discovered Soap? If so, I'd really like to hear about it and, with your permission, I would like to include those memories in Soap! The Inside Story of the Sitcom that Broke All the Rules.

Tuia 250 – Te Pōwhiri – Te Whanganui o Hei / Mercury Bay
Press Release – Tuia 250

Te Whanganui o Hei | Mercury Bay is one of four landing sites in Aotearoa/New Zealand where Māori and European first met during Cook's 1769 voyage, therefore a significant place for Tuia – Encounters 250 commemorations. When H.M Bark Endeavour sailed into Te Whanganui o Hei waters, tangata whenua Ngāti Hei welcomed the newcomers ashore at Wharekaho Beach, and guaranteed their safe passage to Wharetāewa Pā. There, Ngāti Hei honoured Lieutenant James Cook, Tupaia – a Polynesian linguist, navigator and priest, and the scientists and crew on board the Endeavour with the Māori ritual of welcome and inclusion, the Pōwhiri. Cook also observed the transit of Mercury and accurately established the longitude of Te Whanganui a Hei on the globe.
On Friday 18 October 2019, a hugely significant event and the key ceremony Te Pōwhiri will take place, below the famous Wharetāewa Pa (fortified village). Te Pōwhiri is to acknowledge and commemorate the first encounter between Ngāti Hei and Endeavour crew 250 years ago. Te Whanganui o Hei/Mercury Bay and Wharetāewa Pā in particular, was the location of the first friendly encounters between Māori and Europeans. Apart from the current historical homestead and stock paddocks, the site remains largely untouched since the actual event.
Registrations to attend the Pōwhiri have unfortunately all been filled, however, the general public are still welcome to catch the free shuttle buses running from Buffalo Beach Reserve out to Wharekaho to view the flotilla and the proceedings from outside the Marae grounds.
There will be a seating area set up at Simpson's Campground for those interested in taking a look at the Tuia 250 Flotilla. The Tuia 250 flotilla consisting of two waka hourua (double hulled canoes)- Haunui and Ngahiraka Mai Tawhiti, a va'a moana – Fa'faite i te Ao Mā'ohi, from Tahiti, the replica HMB Endeavour, R. Tucker Thompson heritage ship and the youth ship, Spirit of New Zealand, will anchor and disembark at the northern end of Wharekaho Beach (outside Simpson's Campground) from around 10am. This will be a family-friendly, alcohol-free zone for all members of the public to come along to and view the proceedings FREE of charge. (**see below for details on transport to Wharekaho). You will also be able to follow the hīkoi along the beach then observe the ceremony from the beachfront or land located at the end of Joseph Road (Leah Rd Reserve).
A Ngāti Hei representative will provide narration explaining the proceedings of the Pōwhiri along with snippets of historical information. At 11:00am the manuhiri (voyagers, community members, dignitaries, visitors to the area), will gather at the north end and begin the 1.2km hīkoi, and will be guided, along the foreshore and towards the southern end of Wharekaho Beach, in the footsteps of Cook, the scientists, Tupaia and crew, entering the site of the "Te Powhiri", where manuhiri (visitors) will take part in the traditional Māori ceremony of welcome. Members of the general public are welcome to join the hīkoi, however, access to the Ngāti Hei land and participation in the Pōwhiri is restricted to guests who have registered prior to the event due to limited numbers.
If you are attending the pōwhiri or taking part in the hīkoi please wear appropriate footwear for the beach and the land. Also please dress appropriately to the weather on the day. This event will be going ahead rain or shine and cover will not always be available.
In accordance with the ruling of the Harbour Master, there will be an exclusion zone in place in Wharekaho Bay for all other vessels and no beaching of the vessels except the waka will be allowed (Friday 18th October only).
**Free parking will be available at Buffalo Beach Reserve, Whitianga. There will be NO PARKING available anywhere in Wharekaho and the side roads will be closed to the public on this day.
Free shuttle buses will be running all day from Buffalo Beach Reserve, Whitianga to Wharekaho.
9am to 12pm – Buffalo Beach Reserve to Simpson's Campground (Northern end of beach)
12pm to 6pm – Buffalo Beach Reserve to Joseph Road (approx halfway along Wharekaho Beach)

After not having had any real success finding suitable replacement batteries for my old Olympus OM-1 I've recently been playing with an alternative: manual exposure and light measurement. So far this has been working great and, as an added benefit, has in some cases actually proven faster than going through the built-in light meter.
There are plenty of descriptions on this topic available online (see The Ultimate Exposure Computer for instance), however some contain too many details to keep around on a little piece of paper, and some seem to have been written in a post-digital era. As a result I've instead compiled this little table:
with two basic steps to follow.
First you estimate the available light in the form of a LV number, and then you find a suitable exposure in terms of aperture and shutter speed. Since the second step can be calculated given the first, the really tricky part is picking the correct LV number (18 to 1). To do this I've memorised some scenes and their LV number, and when that's not enough I use the small scene descriptions going down the two left-most columns (the free Light Meter iOS app is also very helpful for this, and so far seems to agree with both the table and my intuition).
Next I either compute the matching exposure or I look up the desired shutter speed (1/125 to 1/8) in the upper right rows corresponding to the film speed (100 to 6400); I can then go down the column to find where it intersects with the LV number, yielding the aperture needed. Most of the time I let the shutter be fixed at 1/125 and quickly adjust the exposure using just the aperture. Occasionally though, I also use the table to look up the shutter speed needed for a fixed aperture, and by following the row corresponding to the LV number I find my aperture; going straight up then gives me my shutter speed for the particular film speed.
So far this technique has worked out great, allowing me to set up the exposure without first looking through the viewfinder. And with the aperture ring right up front on the Olympus Zuiko lenses, it becomes very quick; in fact, it's surprising that modern cameras have completely given up on this layout in exchange for dials, button, and displays.

"I'm gonna kill that kid," Allen said. "I don't mean figuratively. I'm going to end him."
"Take it easy," Liz said. "I'm sure he didn't mean to…"
"He never means to," Allen said, looking at the remains of one of the stone markers at the end of the driveway. "It just 'happens'."
"I hope he's okay."
"Of course he's okay. The marker is rubble and I'm sure the car — that we bought him — has a smashed fender because he couldn't have been bothered to, I don't know, pay attention to what he was doing when he came home."
Liz had gotten a phone call at work — Donny knew better than to call his father — saying that he "might have hit" the marker after coming home from school. Liz and Allen had expected to see a scrape, or maybe even a chunk missing. They hadn't expected to see the rough fragments on the lawn. Allen knelt down and picked up what looked to be the remains of a headlight. He tossed it back down in disgust.
"Okay, this is it," he said. "Things are different from here on out."
"Don't be too hard on him."
"Liz, what if that had been an oncoming car? What if he had gotten hurt, or killed someone else just because he couldn't, or wouldn't, keep his mind on what he was doing? No, this is it."
"What are you thinking?"
"Time for some tough love," Allen said. "Donny's free ride ends. Now."

Former Team USA Gymnastics Doctor Pleads Guilty to Criminal Sexual Conduct
The doctor who worked for Team USA Gymnastics and was accused of sexual assault by several top stars is facing up to 40 years in prison after pleading guilty to molestation charges.
Larry Nassar pleaded guilty to seven counts of criminal sexual assault in the first degree in court in Michigan on Wednesday morning (22Nov17).
Olympic gymnasts Aly Raisman, McKayla Maroney, and Gabby Douglas were among those who accused Nassar of molesting them, claiming he would tell girls he was performing a routine medical exam, and then take advantage of them.
Court referring to Larry as DOCTOR Nassar. I AM DISGUSTED. I am very disappointed. He does NOT deserve that. Larry is digusting. Larry is a MONSTER not a doctor.
— Alexandra Raisman (@Aly_Raisman) November 22, 2017
Raisman took to Twitter after the disgraced doctor's court appearance and wrote: "Court referring to Larry as DOCTOR Nassar. I AM DISGUSTED. I am very disappointed. He does NOT deserve that. Larry is disgusting. Larry is a MONSTER not a doctor."
Douglas, the most famous member of the USA Gymnastics team – known as the Fierce Five, released a statement on Twitter on Tuesday, accusing Nassar of assault and stating she didn't speak out earlier because "we were conditioned to stay silent".
"I didn't publicly share my experiences as well as many other things because for years we were conditioned to stay silent and honestly some things were extremely painful," Douglas wrote. "I wholeheartedly support my teammates for coming forward with what happened to them."

On May 29, 2018, imprisoned drug-dealer Benjamin Herman, out on temporary leave, killed four people in Liège. Herman attacked two female police officers with a knife, stabbing them repeatedly. He then stole their pistols, which he used to shoot and kill them and a passenger in a nearby car while reportedly shouting "Allahu akbar." He then fled to the nearby Atheneum Léonie de Waha school and took a cleaning woman hostage. Police shot and killed him during a confrontation outside the school, which wounded four officers. Herman had also killed a former criminal accomplice the night before. Belgian authorities had granted Herman a two-day release in preparation for his 2020 release. Herman reportedly converted to Islam in prison and authorities confirmed that he likely radicalized there after coming into contact with Islamic extremists. Belgian officials labeled the killing spree a terrorist attack but did not believe Herman was connected to a terrorist network. ISIS later claimed responsibility via Telegram, referring to Herman as one of its "soldiers." Belgium did not raise its terrorism threat level. (Sources: Reuters, New York Times, Associated Press, France24)
The attack was Belgium's first fatal terror attack since March 22, 2016, when ISIS-affiliated terrorists launched a series of bomb attacks in Belgium, together killing 32 people and wounding more than 300 others. The attacks—the deadliest in Belgium's modern history—came nearly two years after the May 2014 shooting attack at the Jewish Museum in Brussels, perpetrated by former ISIS fighter Mehdi Nemmouche.

Most Commonly-Used Drugs Among 12th Graders
Underage Drinking
Alcohol use by persons under age 21 years is a major public health problem.1 Alcohol is the most commonly used and abused drug among youth in the United States, more than tobacco and illicit drugs. Although drinking by persons under the age of 21 is illegal, people aged 12 to 20 years drink 11% of all alcohol consumed in the United States.2 More than 90% of this alcohol is consumed in the form of binge drinks.2 On average, underage drinkers consume more drinks per drinking occasion than adult drinkers.3 In 2008, there were approximately 190,000 emergency rooms visits by persons under age 21 for injuries and other conditions linked to alcohol.4
Drinking Levels among Youth
The 2009 Youth Risk Behavior Survey5 found that among high school students, during the past 30 days
- 42% drank some amount of alcohol.
- 24% binge drank.
- 10% drove after drinking alcohol.
- 28% rode with a driver who had been drinking alcohol.
Other national surveys indicate
- In 2008 the National Survey on Drug Use and Health reported that 28% of youth aged 12 to 20 years drink alcohol and 19% reported binge drinking.6
- In 2009, the Monitoring the Future Survey reported that 37% of 8th graders and 72% of 12th graders had tried alcohol, and 15% of 8th graders and 44% of 12th graders drank during the past month.7
Consequences of Underage Drinking
Youth who drink alcohol1, 3, 8 are more likely to experience
- School problems, such as higher absence and poor or failing grades.
- Social problems, such as fighting and lack of participation in youth activities.
- Legal problems, such as arrest for driving or physically hurting someone while drunk.
- Physical problems, such as hangovers or illnesses.
- Unwanted, unplanned, and unprotected sexual activity.
- Disruption of normal growth and sexual development.
- Physical and sexual assault.
- Higher risk for suicide and homicide.
- Alcohol-related car crashes and other unintentional injuries, such as burns, falls, and drowning.
- Memory problems.
- Abuse of other drugs.
- Changes in brain development that may have life-long effects.
- Death from alcohol poisoning.
In general, the risk of youth experiencing these problems is greater for those who binge drink than for those who do not binge drink.8
Youth who start drinking before age 15 years are five times more likely to develop alcohol dependence or abuse later in life than those who begin drinking at or after age 21 years.9, 10

Many service replacement parts are available in various undersize and/or oversize, as well as standard sizes. Also,
service kit for reconditioning certain parts and service sets which include all of the parts necessary to complete a task are
available (i.e., steering shaft universal joint kit).
REPAIR Bearing clearance: A strip of soft plastic squeezed between crankshaft journal and connecting rod bearing or
main bearing may be used to measure bearing clearance.
The strip is a specially molded plastic "wire" and is available in three sizes and colors. Type PG-1 (green) has a clearance
range of 0.001 to 0.003-inch (0.025 to 0.76 millimeter). Type PR-1 (red) has a range of 0.002 to 0.006-inch (0.050 to
0.152 millimeter), and Type PB-1 (blue) has a range of 0.004 to 0.009-inch (0.101 to 0.228 millimeter).
Check bearing clearance as follows:
a. Remove bearing cap, and wipe off oil from bearing shell and crankshaft journal.
When checking main bearing clearances with engine in a position where main bearing caps are
supporting weight of crankshaft and flywheel, a bad reading may result because of weight of
crankshaft and flywheel. Support weight by using a jack under counterweight, next to the bearing
being checked.
b. Put a piece of plastic strip the full width of the bearing shell, about 1/4-inch (6.35 millimeter), off center.
c. Rotate crankshaft about 300 from bottom dead center and install bearing cap. Tighten screws to specified torque.
d. Take off bearing shell. Flattened plastic strip will stick to either the bearing shell or crankshaft.
e. Compare width of flattened strip at its widest point, with graduation on envelope. The number within the
graduation on the envelope will indicate the bearing clearance in thousandths of an inch. Taper may indicate
when one end of flattened strip is wider than the other. Measure each end of plastic; the difference between
readings is the approximate amount of taper.
