French psychologist Theodule-Armand Ribot was among the first scientists to study amnesia. He proposed Ribot's Law which states that there is a time gradient in retrograde amnesia. The law follows a logical progression of memory loss due to disease. First,

It opened in 1995 and began assembling

10430-445: The areas of the brain that are affected in anterograde amnesia, as well as how amnesia works. H.M.'s case showed that memory processes are consolidated into different parts of the brain and that short-term and working memory are not usually impaired in cases of amnesia. Another famous historical case of amnesia was that of Clive Wearing . Clive Wearing was a conductor and musician who contracted herpes simplex virus. This virus affected

10579-439: The basement, the two realize it's now dark outside, and The Operator appears and attacks them. They make it outside, but the two are separated. When Tim makes it back to Jay, who is having a seizure near the house, The Operator attacks Tim, but he stands up to him. The Operator disappears, and Jay and Tim make it back to the car, with Jay seemingly in a permanent dazed state. The Hooded Man uploads footage showing him running out of

10728-463: The brain) that was caused from a heart bypass surgery, R.B. demonstrated a loss of anterograde memory, but almost no loss of retrograde memory, with the exception of a couple of years before his surgery, and presented no sign of any other cognitive impairment. It was not until after his death that researchers had the chance to examine his brain, when they found his lesions were restricted to the CA1 portion of

10877-455: The brain. Wernicke–Korsakoff syndrome involves a lack of thiamin and replacing this vitamin by consuming thiamin-rich foods such as whole-grain cereals, legumes (beans and lentils), nuts, lean pork, and yeast can help treat it. Treating alcoholism and preventing alcohol and illicit drug use can prevent further damage, but in most cases will not recover lost memory. Although improvements occur when patients receive certain treatments, there

11026-543: The camera. The screen distorts, and the footage jumps to the next morning, where Jay and Tim wake up in a decrepit shack in Rosswood. Totheark uploads 'Isolation', where The Hooded Man tells Jay and Tim to 'meet again soon'. Jay and Tim do indeed meet up in the next entry, and discuss everything. They form an alliance under the condition that they'll work together to deal with Alex, so long as they find Jessica afterward. Tim and Jay head back to Rosswood Park, with Tim wearing

11175-404: The car in which she was taken to her classes. Death threats were made against her, and the university president's home was stoned. The riots were the most violent involving a pro-segregation demonstration since the landmark Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision. After the riots, the university suspended Lucy from school, stating her own safety was a concern; it later expelled her on

11324-459: The chest-mounted camera. Tim confirms to Jay that he does not remember anything while in his masked state. After being unable to find the shack they had woken up in, they decide to investigate the tunnel from Season 2, where Alex killed a man. While in the tunnel, Alex calls Jay and tells him to leave. Tim falls to the ground in a coughing fit, and The Operator attacks them. Jay is unable to drag Tim away, and leaves him behind. When Jay makes it back to

11473-478: The city was 47.85% White, 41.03% Black or African American, 0.15% Native American, 2.36% Asian, 0.05% Pacific Islander, and 2.64% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino people of any race were 5.46% of the population. In 2023, the City of Tuscaloosa secured an updated count for the 2020 Census, after proving an undercount of at least 1,100 University of Alabama Students who were residing temporarily off-campus due to

11622-405: The city was 53.8% White , 41.5% Black or African American , 0.2% Native American , 1.8% Asian , 0.0% Pacific Islander , 1.5% from other races , and 1.1% from two or more races. 3.0% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

11920-458: The city, the first being an EF3 on April 15 , and the second and more devastating being an EF4 on April 27 , when more than 50 deaths resulted. The city suffered considerable infrastructure damage. Winter lasts from mid-December to late-February; the daily average temperature in January is 44.7 °F (7.1 °C). On average, the low temperature falls to the freezing mark or below on 46 days

12069-584: The city. First Baptist Church, Calvary Baptist Church, Alberta Baptist Church, Emmanuel Baptist Church, and First African Baptist Church are five of the many Baptist churches in Tuscaloosa. Holy Cross Lutheran Church is a church reflecting on the Evangelical Lutheran community of Tuscaloosa. There is the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Tuscaloosa. The University Church of Christ has both a campus ministry and

12218-406: The damaged areas. Obama pledged the full resources of the federal government toward aiding the recovery efforts. Bentley—himself a Tuscaloosa native—pledged additional national guard troops. Tuscaloosa Mayor Walt Maddox announced that he was requesting 500 additional National Guard troops and calling for more volunteer aid workers and cadaver teams for the recovery of bodies, in order to prevent

12367-405: The devastating Joplin, Missouri tornado of May 22. The tornado was part of the 2011 Super Outbreak that affected large parts of the eastern United States and was the largest tornado outbreak ever recorded. In total, 324 people were killed by tornadoes during the outbreak, including 238 in Alabama alone. The tornadoes and other severe weather combined for over $ 10 billion in damage throughout

12516-452: The displaying of a "bicentennial quilt" and a fireworks display following the 44th Annual West Alabama Christmas Parade, which was dedicated to the city's birthday. The University of Alabama gave two sculptures to the city, one of a 30 foot-tall, 9,500-pound statue of the Roman goddess Minerva —designed by local artist Caleb O'Connor—at Manderson Landing park along the Black Warrior River , and

12665-441: The episodes during which they previously learned or observed the information. Some people with amnesia show abnormal amount of memory loss, confusion, and difficulty recalling other people or places. People who recover often do not remember having amnesia. Declarative memory can be broken down into semantic memory and episodic memory. Semantic memory being that of facts, episodic memory being that of memory related to events. While

12814-471: The extent and severity of the damage, Mayor Walter Maddox stated that "we have neighborhoods that have been basically removed from the map." The same tornado later went on to cause major damage in the Birmingham area. In all, the cost of damage from the tornado amounted to $ 2.45 billion, making it, at the time, the costliest tornado in U.S. history, though it would be surpassed less than a month later by

12963-450: The extent of damage that is caused. There are two main types of amnesia: These two types are not mutually exclusive; both can also occur simultaneously. Case studies also show that amnesia is typically associated with damage to the medial temporal lobe . In addition, specific areas of the hippocampus (the CA1 region ) are involved with memory. Research has also shown that when areas of

13112-446: The following: Many forms of amnesia fix themselves without being treated. However, there are a few ways to cope with memory loss if treatment is needed. Since there are a variety of causes that form different amnesia, there are different methods that response better with the certain type of amnesia. Emotional support and love as well as medication and psychological therapy have been proven effective. One technique for amnesia treatment

13261-418: The footage to a hard drive. His cameras capture The Masked Man breaking into Jay's home and watching him sleep, before he and Jay both disappear for multiple hours. After Jay shares this entry, totheark posts a response video showing where Jay was during those missing hours. Jay analyzes the items he found during his first visit to Brian's house. He finds that the pill bottle he had taken is now empty, though it

13410-522: The forces of Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto in 1540 in the Battle of Mabila , in what is now central Alabama. It served as Alabama's capital city from 1826 to 1846, where in 1846 it was moved to its present location in Montgomery . Tuscaloosa is the regional center of industry, commerce, healthcare and education for the area of west-central Alabama known as West Alabama. It is the principal city of

13559-437: The hard drive files, Alex notices The Hooded Man outside of his house, and chases after him. The Hooded Man leads him to a forest, where Alex is jumped by both Tim and The Hooded Man, but the two suddenly run off. In the next tape, Jay breaks into Alex's apartment due to his distrust of him, but Alex catches him. Their argument is cut short by The Operator appearing in the apartment, and Jay flees while Alex stays. The two meet in

13708-489: The hippocampal regions of the brain. Because of this damage, Wearing was unable to remember information for more than a few moments. Wearing's non-declarative memory was still functioning but his declarative memory was impaired. To him, he felt that he had just come to consciousness for the first time every time he was unable to hold on to information. This case also can be used as evidence that there are different memory systems for declarative and non-declarative memory. This case

13857-416: The hippocampus has a lesion , and thus the hippocampus could not make connections to the cortex. After an ischemic episode (an interruption of the blood flow to the brain), an MRI of patient R.B. following surgery showed his hippocampus to be intact except for a specific lesion restricted to the CA1 pyramidal cells. In one instance, transient global amnesia was caused by a hippocampal CA1 lesion. While this

14006-546: The hippocampus. This case study led to important research involving the role of the hippocampus and the function of memory. Patient G.D. was a white male born in 1940 who served in the Navy. He was diagnosed with chronic kidney failure and received hemodialysis treatment for the rest of his life. In 1983, he went to the hospital for elective parathyroidectomy . He also had a left thyroid lobectomy because of severe loss of blood in his left lobe. He began having cardiac problems as

14155-472: The hope of catching The Operator on camera. He also finds that Alex's tapes have severe periodic audio and visual problems such as static, distortion, missing footage, and occasionally missing or inaudible audio. He speculates that Alex may be responsible for some of these problems. After Jay becomes more involved with the case, The Operator begins invading Jay's personal life. In response, Jay also sets up constant video surveillance in his home and begins posting

14304-413: The hospital for good. While searching, they encounter The Hooded Man, but he doesn't see them. Tim and Jay trail him, and in the process find a tape he left in the building. The tape shows the aftermath of Tim passing out in the annex due to the pills. The Hooded Man dragged Tim out of the building and began trailing Alex, who showed up at the annex. The Hooded Man knocked Alex out with a pipe and tied him to

14453-422: The hospital for treatment of injuries, and 94 were arrested. The events were not witnessed by outside journalists and had little influence outside the local community. James Hood dropped out of the University of Alabama after two months. He later returned, and in 1997, received his Ph.D. in interdisciplinary studies . Malone persisted in her studies at the time and became the first Black American to graduate from

14602-438: The hospital. While there, Alex attacks and knocks out Tim with a pipe. The camera falls from where it had been put down and The Operator is seen. The last tape picks up the same night, when Tim wakes up and explores the abandoned building in complete darkness. He escapes, but instead of going home, he goes to the annex. While hiding there, he spots Alex with another pipe, but Alex doesn't find him. Tim suffers another coughing fit,

14751-404: The house where Amy disappeared, but find nothing. Alex calls Amy's roommate, Jessica, to see if she has any leads on Amy's location. While looking through footage on the hard drive, Jay finds a clip where Alex calls Jessica and tells her he found Amy. However, none of Alex's footage shows evidence that this is true. The footage shows Alex is also being frequently visited by The Operator. In one of

14900-411: The house, he has a brutal encounter with 'The Masked Man', who tackles Jay to the ground. After the attack, The Masked Man, unofficially dubbed as 'Masky' by the fandom, has a seizure . Jay wakes up the next day in his car with no memory of the previous night, the knife he brought to the house now missing. Jay eventually tells viewers that, like Alex, he has been filming himself constantly and uploading

15049-402: The lists, he was still able to learn things through his implicit memory . The psychologists would ask him to draw something on a piece of paper, but to look at the paper using a mirror. Though he could never remember ever doing that task, he would improve after doing it over and over again. This showed the psychologists that he was learning and remembering things unconsciously. In some studies it

15198-450: The maintenance tunnel by himself, as he has a hunch that The Hooded Man led him there for a specific purpose. While in the annex next to the tunnel, he finds a message written from The Hooded Man, which says "HE IS A LIAR. FOLLOW ME." While exploring in the tunnel, he finds a folder with the text 'LIAR' on it, which has medical documents about Tim inside. Jay is attacked in the tunnel by The Operator, but manages to get out with everything. In

15347-408: The medial temporal lobe or to the neocortex. Some patients with anterograde amnesia can still acquire some semantic information, even though it might be more difficult and might remain rather unrelated to more general knowledge. H.M. could accurately draw a floor plan of the home in which he lived after surgery, even though he had not lived there in years. There is evidence that the hippocampus and

15496-399: The medial temporal lobe may help to consolidate semantic memories, but then they are more correlated with the neocortex. While lesions of the hippocampus normally lead to the loss of episodic memory, if there is any effect on semantic memory, it is more varied and usually does not last as long. One reason that patients could not form new episodic memories is likely because the CA1 region of

15645-440: The neurosurgeon Scoville tried a new approach involving brain surgery. He removed his medial temporal lobe bilaterally by doing a temporal lobectomy. His epilepsy did improve, but Molaison lost the ability to form new long-term memories (anterograde amnesia). He exhibited normal short-term memory ability. If he was given a list of words, he would forget them in about a minute's time. In fact, he would forget that he had even been given

15794-412: The next 9.5 years until his death. After he died, his brain was donated to science, photographed, and preserved for future study. Global amnesia is a common motif in fiction despite being extraordinarily rare in reality. In the introduction to his anthology The Vintage Book of Amnesia , Jonathan Lethem writes: Real, diagnosable amnesia – people getting knocked on the head and forgetting their names –

15943-517: The next entry, he shows the documents in the folder, where were some of Tim's old medical records. The records reveal that he suffers from seizures, a history with headaches, insomnia, and depression. A picture was also left in the folder of Tim and Jay arguing, with the text "WATCHING" written on it. Jay decides to take a break, due to being at a dead-end. Totheark hacks the Marble Hornets channel and uploads footage of The Hooded Man breaking into Tim's house and stealing his medication, causing Tim to have

16092-425: The operation. Researchers also found that, when asked, Molaison could answer questions about national or international events, but he could not remember his own personal memories. After his death Molaison donated his brain to science, where they were able to discover the areas of the brain that had the lesions which caused his amnesia, particularly the medial temporal lobe. This case study provided important insight to

16241-448: The parking lot, Tim is somehow already in his car, and he drives away without speaking to Jay. The next Entry is from Tim's chest-camera footage. After Jay leaves Tim, Tim is teleported to multiple places, including a seemingly endless body of water where he isn't able to come up and breathe, a forest, hanging upside down from trees, a concrete world where he finds the body of the man whom Alex killed. After Tim somehow manages to escape, he

16390-688: The policy of his predecessors of treating different Indian groups as separate nations. Instead, he aggressively pursued plans to move all Indian tribes living east of the Mississippi River. Following Congressional passage of the Indian Removal Act , in 1832 the Creek National Council signed the Treaty of Cusseta , ceding their remaining lands east of the Mississippi to the U.S., and accepting relocation to

16539-464: The population was 99,600 at the 2020 census , and was estimated to be 111,338 in 2023. It was known as Tuskaloosa until the early 20th century. It is also known as "the Druid City" because of the numerous water oaks planted in its downtown streets since the 1840s. Incorporated on December 13, 1819, it was named after Tuskaloosa , the chief of a band of Muskogean -speaking people defeated by

16688-586: The population were below the poverty line , including 25.3% of those under age 18 and 13.4% of those age 65 or over. The city of Tuscaloosa is home to many places of worship to which people from the surrounding area of West Alabama may come; the predominant denomination is Southern Baptist. Holy Spirit Roman Catholic Church is one of three Catholic churches. First Presbyterian Church is the place of worship for many American and German residents in Tuscaloosa. There are also Presbyterian Church in America congregations in

16837-421: The population were below the poverty line , including 32.5% of those under age 18 and 12.4% of those age 65 or over. As of the 2000 census , there were 77,906 people, 31,381 households, and 16,945 families residing in the city. The population density was 1,385.2 inhabitants per square mile (534.8/km ). There were 34,857 housing units at an average density of 619.8 per square mile (239.3/km ). The racial makeup of

16986-455: The post World War II era, African Americans increased their activism to ensure their constitutional civil rights and challenged southern segregation in numerous ways. In 1952, Autherine Lucy was admitted to the university as a graduate student, but her admission was rescinded when authorities discovered she was not White. After three years of legal wrangling, Thurgood Marshall and the NAACP got

17135-621: The present. State capital from 1826 to 1846. In 1828, Andrew Jackson was elected president of the United States. He had gained popularity when he defeated the Creek at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend in 1814, following victories in the War of 1812. He long proposed Indian removal to an Indian Territory to be established west of the Mississippi, to make land available in the Southeast for European-American settlement. Jackson abandoned

17284-417: The previous seven months that Jay has no memory of. The first few tapes reveal that Jay went to the return address shown on the package he received in 'Entry #26". While there, he runs into Alex for the first time in nearly 4 years. The Masked Man interrupts the reunion, and they wrestle him to the ground and unmask him, discovering he is Tim, one of the core actors in Marble Hornets. Alex breaks Tim's leg with

17433-408: The production, and gives him the tapes after finding them. Most of the tapes contain general BTS footage, but in one, Tim mentions knowing of an abandoned hospital where they can film. One of the last tapes shows Tim and Alex going to the hospital. While there, Alex and Tim get into an argument when Tim refuses to go to an annex building. Alex becomes aggressive towards him, but still agrees to explore

17582-549: The recordings to YouTube alongside the footage from Alex's tapes. His uploads often net cryptic and threatening responses from another mysterious YouTube channel named "totheark", who posts videos with cryptic ciphers or messages, and utilizes the 'video reply" feature to try and get Jay's attention. Jay meets with Tim to seek answers about Alex's disappearance, before visiting the abandoned house of another cast member, Brian Thomas (Brian Haight). Jay finds Brian's home vacant, in severe disrepair, without functioning lighting, and with

17731-422: The red tower from Season 1, Jay claims to see someone watching them, although Tim does not see anyone and no one is captured on camera. While leaving, they find burned tapes left in a sink hole. Later, Jay is able to get two of the tapes to work. The first tape reveals that Alex had been planning to transfer to the school that Amy was attending. It also shows him encountering and trying to tackle The Operator, much in

17880-492: The relatively low fatality figures in relation to the high number of casualties. Rumors abounded that refrigerated trucks were being brought to store unidentified remains, and that countless bodies were beneath area waters. But the fatality figure did not increase (and was later reduced). Most persons listed as missing were later found to have survived. During this period, The Tuscaloosa News posted an on-line people finder to aid people to find each other, as well as determine who

18029-579: The roots of literary amnesia to Franz Kafka and Samuel Beckett , among others, fueled in large part by the seeping into popular culture of the work of Sigmund Freud , which also strongly influenced genre films such as film noir . Amnesia is so often used as a plot device in films, that a widely recognized stereotypical dialogue has even developed around it, with the victim melodramatically asking "Where am I? Who am I? What am I?", or sometimes inquiring of their own name, "Bill? Who's Bill?" In movies and television, particularly sitcoms and soap operas , it

18178-603: The same way Jay did in Season 2. The second tape shows that after giving Jay the Marble Hornets tapes in 2006, Alex had tried to attack him. Jay does not remember being attacked and begins to doubt his memory. Jay and Tim go to Alex's old house, where Jay had been attacked. Jay thinks he sees the Operator outside a window, but again Tim doesn't see anything and nothing appears on camera. Tim tells Jay they should get him evaluated, but Jay refuses, telling Tim he's fine. While investigating

18327-602: The southwest. Major areas of Tuscaloosa city proper include: Typical of the Deep South , Tuscaloosa experiences a humid subtropical climate ( Köppen Cfa ). The Gulf of Mexico heavily influences the climate by supplying the region with warm, moist air . During the fall , winter, and spring seasons, the interaction of this warm, moist air with cooler, drier air from the North along fronts creates precipitation. These fronts usually move from west to east as they track along

18476-557: The spread of disease. The New York Yankees organization contributed $ 500,000 to the American Red Cross and Salvation Army to aid in recovery efforts, and the Atlanta Braves organization donated $ 100,000. Actor Charlie Sheen visited the city to pay his respects on May 2 and donated supplies for relief efforts, along with several other actors, musicians and athletes. Due to the disaster, on August 6, 2011,

18625-470: The stolen pills. He breaks into Tim's house to take some spare pills from his bathroom. He also finds a tape in Tim's living room, but before he can take it the attic door opens and Alex begins coming down the steps. The Hooded Man escapes the house without being caught. Back at the hotel, Tim and Jay have a discussion about what Jay doesn't remember. Tim assumes that The Operator backed away because of Tim's medication, which he says he's been giving to Jay. Jay

18774-552: The tape from The Hooded Man's video, and hides it from Jay, but Jay realizes what Tim is doing and takes the tape. Tim tells him that he shouldn't watch the tape yet, but Jay leaves and watches it anyway. The tape shows that Tim (in his masked state) and The Hooded Man were behind Jessica's disappearance in Season 2. They brought Jessica from the hotel into the woods, and Tim went back to the hotel to get Jay. Jessica and The Hooded Man encountered Alex, who shot at but didn't hit The Hooded Man. Alex pretended to be an ally and led Jessica to

18923-484: The tape, Alex says that all of the cast and crew of Marble Hornets are "gone". Jay attempts to return to Brian's house for any other possible clues, but is attacked and chased by The Masked Man, and finds himself trapped within the house. Jay is teleported to the place where Seth was abandoned, and is attacked by The Operator, which breaks Jay's camera. Jay uploads another clip from his security cameras, which shows him disappearing for multiple hours after stepping through

19072-415: The tapes of raw footage with Jay, cut contact with him, and transferred schools. Three years later, Jay decides to watch the tapes, and begins uploading them to YouTube as "Entries". Through the footage, he discovers that the filming of Marble Hornets was hampered by the menacing presence of a humanoid figure known as " The Operator ". The Operator appears to have constantly stalked Alex, including while he

19221-624: The task later without any recollection of learning the task. According to fMRI studies, the acquisition of procedural memories activates the basal ganglia , the premotor cortex and the supplementary motor area, regions which are not normally associated with the formation of declarative memories. This type of dissociation between declarative and procedural memory can also be found in patients with diencephalic amnesia such as Korsakoff's syndrome . Another example demonstrated by some patients, such as K.C. and H.M, who have medial temporal damage and anterograde amnesia, still have perceptual priming. Priming

19370-428: The techniques used in art. She had preserved skill-related declarative memory for some things even though she had deficits in other declarative memory tasks. She even scored higher on skill-related declarative memory than the control in watercolor techniques, a technique that she used in her professional career before she acquired amnesia. The loss of semantic information in amnesia is most closely related with damage to

19519-627: The town's population and economy grew rapidly, but the relocation of the capital to Montgomery caused a severe decline. The state legislature established Alabama State Hospital for the Insane (now Bryce Hospital ) in Tuskaloosa in the 1850s, which helped restore the city's fortunes. During the Civil War following Alabama's secession from the Union, several thousand men from Tuscaloosa fought in

19668-519: The tunnel, where he then attempted to shoot her. She stole the gun from him, and the Hooded Man returned to beat up Alex. Jessica ran into the woods to hide and was attacked by The Operator. Jay returns to Tim's house with a knife and zip ties. Tim gets the jump on him and ties Jay up with his zip-ties, and takes Jay's knife and camera. Tim says that he's going to the address on the back of the Amy photo,

19817-523: The university dedicated the home of the College of Education as Autherine Lucy Hall. On April 27, 2011, Tuscaloosa was hit by a 1.5 mi (2.4 km) wide EF4 tornado that resulted in 64 deaths, more than 1500 injuries, and massive devastation. Most of the deaths, 44, were in Tuscaloosa alone, with the rest being in Birmingham and surrounding suburbs. The tornado's top winds were estimated by

19966-484: The university. In 2000, the university granted her an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters. Later in his life, Governor Wallace apologized for his opposition at that time to racial integration . In 2010, the university formally honored Lucy, Hood and Malone by renaming the plaza in front of Foster Auditorium as Malone-Hood Plaza and erecting the Autherine Lucy Clock Tower in the plaza. In 2022,

20115-399: The whole time. Among the tapes, Jay finds footage of himself, Alex, and Tim filming a scene from Marble Hornets , where The Operator is seen watching the men through a window. Jay notes that he is disturbed, as he has no memory of the events in the footage happening. Totheark uploads a video telling Jay to come back to Brian's house, and Jay decides to return in hopes of finding a lead. At

20264-448: The woods while waiting on Alex. While in the woods, Jay is attacked by The Operator and drops his camera while fleeing. The camera is later picked up by someone wearing a black mask and beige hoodie (The Hooded Man, or by the fandom, 'Hoody') who returns the camera to Jay's car. Jay looks through the hard drive and realizes it belonged to Alex, and has footage Alex shot on a chest-mounted camera. In another tape, Alex meets with Jay go to

20413-429: Was 65 years of age or older. The median age was 25.4 years. For every 100 females, there were 92.7 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 94.6 males. The median income for a household in the city was $ 31,874, and the median income for a family was $ 49,588. Males had a median income of $ 36,231 versus $ 30,552 for females. The per capita income for the city was $ 21,042. About 17.0% of families and 29.8% of

20562-427: Was 65 years of age or older. The median age was 28 years. For every 100 females, there were 90.8 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 87.9 males. The median income for a household in the city was $ 27,731, and the median income for a family was $ 41,753. Males had a median income of $ 31,614 versus $ 24,507 for females. The per capita income for the city was $ 19,129. About 14.2% of families and 23.6% of

20711-503: Was a temporary case of amnesia, it still shows the importance of the CA1 region of the hippocampus in memory. Episodic memory loss is most likely to occur when there has been damage to the hippocampus. There is evidence that damage to the medial temporal lobe correlates to a loss of autobiographical episodic memory. Some retrograde and anterograde amnesiacs are capable of non-declarative memory, including implicit learning and procedural learning. For example, some patients show improvement on

20860-550: Was accomplished in many different experiments of amnesia, and it was found that the patients can be primed; they have no conscious recall of the event, but the response is there. Those patients did well in the word fragment completion task. There is some evidence that non-declarative memory can be held onto in the form of motor skills. This idea was disputed, though, because it is argued that motor skills require both declarative and non-declarative information. There are three generalized categories in which amnesia could be acquired by

21009-488: Was buried under a large boulder near the boat house near Manderson Landing; the time capsule is intended to capture "What was life like in Tuscaloosa during the year 2019?" and is set to be opened on December 13, 2069, the city's 250th birthday. According to the United States Census Bureau , the city has a total area of 72.22 square miles (187.0 km ), of which 62.15 square miles (161.0 km )

21158-477: Was effectively connected to the Gulf Coast seaport of Mobile . This stimulated the economy and trade, and mining and metallurgical industries were developed in the region. By the onset of the 20th century, the growth of the University of Alabama and the mental health-care facilities in the city, along with a strong national economy, fueled a steady growth in Tuscaloosa which continued unabated for 100 years. In

21307-552: Was filmed in Tuscaloosa, Alabama , and other nearby areas. On August 3, 2015, a follow-up series titled Clear Lakes 44 was uploaded onto the Marble Hornets channel. In April 2016, Clear Lakes 44 was cancelled after the members of the creative team went their separate ways, as confirmed by Wagner. On October 16, 2016, a successor to Clear Lakes 44 , titled ECKVA , was launched. On December 27, 2017, Wagner posted

21456-604: Was found that H.M.'s perceptual learning was intact and that his other cognitive skills were working appropriately. It was also found that some people with declarative information amnesia are able to be primed. Studies were completed consistently throughout Molaison's lifetime to discover more about amnesia. Researchers did a 14-year follow-up study on Molaison. They studied him for a period of two weeks to learn more about his amnesia. After 14 years, Molaison still could not recall things that had happened since his surgery. However, he could still remember things that had happened prior to

21605-455: Was full when he found it. He also finds that bullet casing he had taken is missing. He suspects that The Masked Man is behind this. On the back of one of the drawings he took is a message that mentions a tower. Jay visits the park where some filming from Marble Hornets took place, and finds a hidden tape in a red tower there. Footage on the tape shows Alex leaving Seth behind in an abandoned building after being attacked by The Operator. Later on

21754-436: Was getting better before Jay met with him. The argument ends with Tim saying he wants nothing to do with Jay anymore. Totheark uploads a video response, entitled 'Reference', which is shot inside of the maintenance tunnel with the audio being distorted clips of Tim yelling at Jay. The Masked Man's mask appears in the darkness, and the text "TRUTH WITH LIGHT' appears, with the code 'LIES IN DARK'. The video drives Jay to return to

21903-421: Was more evidence that the hippocampus is an important part of the brain in remembering past events and that declarative and non-declarative memories have different processes in different parts of the brain. Patient R.B. was a normally functioning man until the age of 52. At age 50, he had been diagnosed with angina and had surgery for heart problems on two occasions. After an ischemic episode (reduction of blood to

22052-433: Was on set with his actors, walking his dog to the park, and at his own home. Its presence seemed to cause Alex to develop coughing fits and severe paranoia . As a result of the paranoia, Alex became more stressed, irritable, and aggressive towards cast members Tim Wright (Tim Sutton), Sarah Reid (Mary Kathleen Bishop) and camera operator Seth Wilson (Seth McCay). Jay discovers that Alex began to constantly film himself with

22201-476: Was still missing. Two days after the storm, U.S. President Barack Obama and Alabama Governor Robert Bentley and their spouses, Michelle Obama and Diane Bentley, respectively, accompanied Mayor Maddox on a tour of the damage and the recovery efforts, along with FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate and several Congressional dignitaries. Remarking about the scale and severity of the damage, Obama said, "I've never seen devastation like this, it's heartbreaking", after touring
