Mon -Thu 8a -11p, Fri 8a-8p, Sat 10a-6p, Sun 10a-6p. MID-MANHATTAN LIBRARY, THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY, 455 FIFTH AVENUE (40TH STREET AND 5TH AVENUE) NEW YORK, N.Y. 10016, 212-340-0989, http://www.nypl.org . 27th SUNDAY AT 2:00 P.M. Film: "The Atomic Cafe," DVD, color, 88 minutes, directed by Jayne Loader, Kevin Rafferty and Pierce Rafferty, 1982. This compilation film was created entirely from American atomic propaganda of the 1940's and 50's. Without narration, it juxtaposes excerpts from newly discovered and rarely-seen government and military films, television and radio shows, cartoons, and the "bomb songs" that saturated the airwaves. The film then reveals fifteen years of concerted efforts by the U.S. government to mislead the American public about nuclear testing and warfare. 29th TUESDAY AT 6:30 P.M. Author Visit: Author @ the Library presents: Author @ the Library presents: "Eiffel Tower and the Paris World's Fair of 1889: And the World's Fair Where Buffalo Bill Beguiled Paris, the Artists Quarreled, and Thomas Edison Became a Count, " with Jill Jonnes. Discover the richly textured portrait of a visionary, of an architectural icon that became the glamorous symbol of Paris and French culture, and of an era at the dawn of modernity, reveling in the limitless promise of the future. 30th WEDNESDAY AT 6:30 P.M. Author Visit: Author @ the Library presents: "It Ain’t Necessarily So: Setting the Record Straight About English," with Patricia T. O’Conner, author of "Origins of the Specious: Myths and Misconceptions of the English Language." Do the British really speak better English than Americans? Why don’t French women wear brassières? Does “ain’t” deserve its bad rep? Should “niche” rhyme with “quiche”? Not so fast—the answers may surprise you! In her talk, she covers the whole nine yards (another source of lore!) and debunks myths that have bamboozled word-loving fans of her popular blog, books, and broadcasts.

Citi Field, 126th St. and Roosevelt Ave, Flushing, Queens, 7 train to Mets/Willets Pt. http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/new-york-chuseok-festival-sept-26-27. http://www.allkpop.com/index.php/full_story/brown_eyed_girls_more_coming_to_new_york_for_chuseok/ That's right, this sexy foursome is making its way to the Big Apple in three weeks! The Chuseok Festival of NYC has boasted huge artists in the past; just last year, they headlined the show with the Wonder Girls - way before the quintet made any moves on American entertainment. For those of you that don't know, Chuseok is a major three-day harvest festival and holiday celebrated in the autumn every eighth month of the lunar calendar (which starts in the Gregorian calendar's "February"). On these three days, Koreans visit their hometowns to pay respects to their ancestors, give offerings and ultimately have a huge feast of traditional Korean foods. For non-Koreans, it's a great time to sample a literal taste of Korean culture. Performances by: Brown Eyed Girls, Yang Hye Sung, Leessang, Wax, Im Ju Ri, Jo Seong Ja. Since 1982, The Korean Produce Association has organized the Korean Harvest & Folk Festival. The Festival is for families, relatives and friends among others to get together and experiencing the various types of performing arts of the traditional Korean culture and cuisine. For more information, please call The Korean Produce Association at (718) 842-2424.
