Steel closets : voices of gay, lesbian, and transgender steelworker by Anne Belay, available on the Internet Archive

Transcript:

Miles began working in a steel mill in 1999 as an out lesbian, but he quit about eight years later because of repeated shoulder injuries and general exhaustion. He says it's not really accurate to say that he transitioned while working at the mill, since "we never really have a transition. We'll always be transgendered because our past experiences and history go along with us. So I'll always consider myself transitioning." I met Miles at the Cornwall Iron Furnace just outside of Philadelphia. It's a National Historic Landmark, pre- serving a nineteenth-century ironmaking complex and documenting the ironmaking process, as well as its effect on the area around the furnace and the workers' lives. Miles had suggested this meeting place, noting that he had always wanted to see the exhibits. He was curious about the history of the steelmaking process, and tickled by seeing his huge, powerful, mascu- line job echoed within this seemingly fragile incarnation made of bricks, and described for us by local elderly ladies.

For example, once the iron in Cornwall was molten, it was poured into one central branch, from which it flowed into a row of troughs pressed into the sand, which we were told resembled baby pigs nursing a sow-hence the name "pig iron." Miles noted that his job used many of the same tech- niques, since "I was a spruer. Parts will come out of a didion [a brand of metal separating equipment], which shook off the sand, and my job was to break the pieces apart. You see them come out on that long bar, they were lying them into them troughs, that's called a sprue tree, OK, as it goes down along, now in modern times, we have machines that press sand blocks together if you're work- ing on small parts. 'Cause we don't work on really big stuff, we work on cou- plings so it was smaller stuff. It would come down and this didion would spin it around, and little stars inside would clean off the material, but it still wasn't fully clean. It put them down on this table, which would shake up and down, and they were split in half, and the stuff would go and be remelted and what we wanted to keep for good pieces would go down and be cleaned and checked. I would stand there with a lead hammer and whack those pieces off the sprue tree. Separate the sprue tree from the good stuff." Seeing the shape of the sprue tree pressed into sand on the floor in front of a gigantic, prehistoric ladle made this whole process more comprehensible to me. And though the scale was much smaller than that of the big production mills still in op- eration, it was nonetheless vast-the blast furnace was about three stories high, with tap holes at the bottom from which the finished product ran.

The human component of steelmaking similarly remains fairly constant. After we examined a replica of a nineteenth-century steelworker dressed for work, Miles showed me his respirator, noting "The kerchief on the man's face? This would be more of a modern version of the kerchief." He also showed me his leather apron, adding that "they still use the [wooden] shoes, by the way. Nothing has really gotten up to date I guess you'd say. It's really an old art form. I would call it an art form." His burn clothes are made of Kevlar but oth- erwise duplicate the old patterns. This continuity is part of the cultural and historical context crucial to understanding how masculinity gets defined and shifted within the mills. The work remains the same, even though the larger culture's definitions of gender and masculinity are shifting. Count- less published accounts document the struggles of steelworker families when the man of the house is laid off and the woman has to find work. Though this shift occurred well after second-wave feminism, when most American women were in the paid workforce, the consistency of steelwork, and the corollary consistency of steelworkers' gender roles, made it hard for these families to adjust. Miles attributes his fascination with the consistency of mill work and mill workers over time to his experience with occupying both genders while working in the mills. Though he became a man, he did not change his tasks, his garments, or his self-presentation at work-he had always been masculine. Which parallels the "enormous struggle within the gay male community to come to terms with the stigma of effeminacy. The most strik- ing result has been a shift from effeminate to masculine styles" (Newton, Mother Camp, xiii). An exaggerated masculinity linked, if only rhetorically, to working-class culture, reinforces traditional gender roles, even as it sug- gests that only one gender is really worth doing.

2 Employees Convicted in Wisconsin Corn Plant Blast Probe

A federal jury has convicted two senior employees at a Wisconsin corn plant of falsifying records and obstructing an investigation into a fatal corn dust explosion in 2017, Justice Department officials announced on Tuesday. Corn dust is explosive, and high concentrations are dangerous. Federal regulations require grain mill operators to perform regular cleanings to reduce dust accumulations that could fuel a blast. COMPANY AGREES TO $11M PAYOUT OVER DEADLY WISCONSIN CORN PLANT BLAST Jurors found Derrick Clark, vice president of operations at Didion Milling, and Shawn Mesner, a former food safety superintendent at the company, guilty of multiple safety, environmental and fraud charges on Friday. The two men are the latest in a growing list of Didion employees found guilty in association with the 2017 explosion that killed five people at the company's Cambria corn mill. The remains of a Didion Milling plant are photographed in Cambria, Wisconsin, following a June 1, 2017, corn dust explosion. (John Hart/Wisconsin State Journal via AP, File) Attorneys listed for both men did not immediately respond to voicemails seeking comment on Tuesday. Didion Milling pleaded guilty in September to charges that its employees falsified environmental and safety compliance records for years leading up to the explosion. The company agreed to pay a $1 million fine and $10.25 million to the estates of the five workers who were killed. WISCONSIN AG JOSH KAUL FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST MILLING COMPANY REGARDING VIOLATIONS AT EXPLOSION SITE Clark was convicted on Friday of making false Clean Air Act compliance certifications and lying to investigators during a deposition. Mesner was found guilty of conspiring to mislead Occupational Safety and Health Administration investigators by lying on sanitation records that tracked cleanings meant to remove corn dust from the mill. "Derrick Clark and Shawn Messner chose to intentionally mislead OSHA investigators and made false statements about their knowledge of working conditions at the plant to protect themselves and cover their mistakes," OSHA Regional Administrator Bill Donovan said in a statement. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Sentencing hearings have not yet been scheduled for either of the men. At least five other Didion employees have pleaded guilty or been convicted of charges including concealing environmental violations, lying to investigators and falsifying cleaning logs.

My Year in Books

У меня практически нет новогодних традиций, кроме одной - писать New Year’s resolutions и немного анализировать прошедший год по прошлогоднему списку. Благодаря любезно предоставленной сайтом goodreads инфографике, вы видите, что мой самонадеянный план прочитать 75 книг благополучно рухнул:)

В этом году я частенько бросала книги, которые мне не нравились. Однако, по непонятной причине, я все же дочитала следующие плохие книги: “Смертные машины” Филипа Рива (очень плохо написанное стимпанк фэнтези), “Райский сад” Эрнеста Хемингуэя (отвратительные персонажи в книге, где Хемингуэй притворяется Фицджеральдом), “Имею скафандр - готов путешествовать” Роберта Хайнлайна (после нескольких попыток прочитать ещё одну хорошую книгу у Хайнлайна кроме “Двери в лето”, я сдаюсь - у него больше нет хороших книг).

А теперь о приятных открытиях и новых писателях, которых было хоть и немного, но которые влюбили в себя бесповоротно:

Лучшая классика на века: “Гордость и предубеждение” Джейн Остен

Лучшая книга в жанре фэнтези: “Сага о ведьмаке” Анджея Сапковского

Лучшая научная фантастика: “Убик” Филипа Дика

Лучший комикс: “Daytripper” by Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá

Лучшая комикс-серия (закончившаяся в этом году): “Descender” by Jeff Lemire

Писатель-открытие года: Джордж Сондерс, Магнус Миллз, Ричард Бротиган

Лучший сборник рассказов: “Welcome to the Monkey House” by Kurt Vonnegut

Лучшая книга в жанре магический реализм: “Страна Чудес без тормозов и Конец Света” Харуки Мураками

Лучший хоррор: “Annihilation” by Jeff Vandermeer (только прошу вас, не смотрите фильм - он оооочень плохой)

Лучшая эссеистика: “Slouching Towards Bethlehem” by Joan Didion

Лучшая романтическая книга: “Crosstalk” by Connie Willis

Лучшая книга в жанре постмодернизм: “Lincoln in the Bardo” by George Saunders, “Белый шум” Дона Делилло

Самая смешная книга: “Любовь и дружба” Джейн Остен, “The Restraint of Beasts” by Magnus Mills

Лучший детектив (который на самом деле хоррор и много чего ещё): “Расследование” Станислава Лема

Лучшая книга о взрослении: “The Cat’s Table” by Michael Ondaatje

Лучшая книга в жанре сюрреализм/абсурдизм: “In Watermelon Sugar”, “Willard and His Bowling Trophies: A Perverse Mystery”, “The Hawkline Monster: A Gothic Western” by Richard Brautigan

Все эти книги я рекомендую к прочтению, рецензии на них вы можете найти в моем блоге.

Пока я писала этот пост, Новый год подкрался ещё ближе, так что вот мое первое New Year’s resolution:

В этом году я прочитаю 60 книг, а сам год объявляю “Годом книг-гигантов”, так как собираюсь уделить особое внимание толстым книгам, до которых у меня все никак не дойдут руки; среди них: “Бесконечная шутка” Дэвида Фостера Уоллеса (1279 стр), “Моби Дик, или Белый Кит” Германа Мелвилла (736 стр.), “1Q84” Харуки Мураками (928 стр.), “Иерусалим” Алана Мура (1266 стр.) и др.

Желаю вам больше хороших книг в Новом году!

HURRY UP PLEASE IT'S TIME Time is now Time is in me, sitting here on an autumn day, on the other side of the hemisphere. Two days ago I realised that Daylight Savings Time, when applied simultaneously in both hemispheres, means that two hours, not one, are added to the time difference in our time zones. Wait, wait, there's no hurrying up. The friend tells me that a year is not such a long time, yet not so long after, says I stay a lot in the past. It's a long now. A long spread of past present future, like a long continuous horizon rounding the earth. The friend says it took several years to get over a breakup. It's been two months since the now-partner broke his collarbone. Yesterday, someone told me that their grandmother had passed away nearly three months ago, but that they'd had no time to process or grieve. 83 days (and more) and I'm still not over it. In Chinese lore, 7x7=49 days till the soul returns for a last goodbye, after a death. HURRY UP PLEASE IT'S TIME the ushering me out of the bar and onto the streets, where crowds of tipped-out bar-goers linger, mill about contemplating the next place to go, pondering going home. Eh. How a sunset takes several minutes to break. The word moment in Polish, chwila, makes me think of the word '[a] while'. Maybe I calculated/counted wrong, a character in a Chinese drama says. I never calculated/counted, says his brother. I'm realising that, maybe, I really did squeeze a lot into that one year. Now all that time to process decompressing itself, slowly filling out the 'later', that is now, that I left it to. And it, unlike me, holds itself to no time limitations, no constraints. / I'm thinking about Barthes' Mourning Diary. // I'm thinking about Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking (which is less brought up, it seems, than Mourning Diary/Barthes). /// (Now, I'm thinking about Berger's Here is Where We Meet, the first chapter on Lisbon, his mother's passing.) I'm thinking that maybe, the moment comes fully-formed, even where we are on something. Where am I going with this? [Staying] Here, I hope.

The leading drivers and restraints affecting the global distillers’ grains market are also assessed in detail in the report. The competitive landscape of the market is also profiled in detail in the report.

Distillers’ grains are the grain byproduct left over from the distillation process. The residual grains left over from the distillation process are known as distillers’ grains. These contain high levels of proteins, which are comparable to animal feed products. This makes distillers’ grains a highly suitable material for animal feed. Distillers’ grains may contain rice, corn, barley, and wheat, among others, and thus also represent a diverse option for animal feed applications instead of the uniform products provided by the animal feed industry. The diversity of grains in distillers’ grains and the high protein content of distillers’ grains are the major driver for the distillers’ grains market, as these factors are likely to enable steady growth in the demand for distillers’ grains from husbandry applications.

The growing animal feed market is the major driver for the global distillers’ grains market. Animal feed has become a vital area in recent years due to the growing animal products industry and the need to feed the growing number of animals being cared for in the world’s animal products industry. The growing demand for animal products such as dairy and meat products is a major driver for the animal feed industry, and is thus likely to remain a major driver for the distillers’ grains market over the forecast period.
