Iggy Azalea was the latest star to join James Corden on 'The Late Late Show' for carpool karaoke but she got more than she bargained for when the host took her wedding dress shopping.
The two sang along to Azalea's biggest hits 'Fancy', 'Black Widow' and 'Trouble', before Corden surprised his guest by taking her to a bridal store.
The British presenter tried to help the Aussie rapper pick out an outfit for her upcoming nuptials, with somewhat limited success.
Still, she did reveal that Demi Lovato will be one of her bridesmaids and that her fiancé Nick Young is hoping R Kelly will perform at the ceremony. She also joked that if Corden got ordained he could officiate the ceremony.
Plus, if you've ever wanted to see James Corden in a wedding dress, there's that too. Something for everyone then…

Multimodal collaborative passenger-centric decision making to mitigate the impact of airside perturbations
Marzuoli, Aude Claire
MetadataShow full item record
Transportation networks constitute a critical infrastructure enabling the transfers of passengers and goods, with a significant impact on the economy at different scales. Transportation modes, whether air, road or rail, are coupled and interdependent. The frequent occurrence of perturbations on one or several modes disrupts passengers' entire journeys, directly and through ripple effects. Collaborative Decision Making has shown significant benefits at the airport level, both in the US and in Europe. This dissertation examines how it could be extended to the multimodal network level, discusses the supporting qualitative and quantitative evidence, and provides recommendations for implementation. A case study on the crisis management following the Asiana Crash at San Francisco International Airport in July 2013 is presented. The resulting propagation of disturbances on the transportation infrastructure in the United States is examined. The perturbation takes different forms and varies in scale and time frames : cancellations and delays snowball in the airspace, highway traffic near the airport is impacted by congestion in previously never congested locations, and transit passenger demand exhibit unusual traffic peaks in between airports in the Bay Area. The crash led to a large number of domestic and international flight diversions to many airports, such as Oakland, San Jose, Los Angeles, but also Denver, Salt Lake City and Seattle for instance. Thousands of passengers found themselves struggling to reach their original destination. Passenger reaccommodation varied greatly from airline to airline and airport to airport.First a passenger-centric reaccommodation scheme is developed to balance costs and delays, for each diversion airport. Second, assuming better information sharing and collaborative decision making, we show that there was enough capacity at the neighboring airports, Oakland and San Jose, to accommodate most of the diverted flights and reoptimize the allocation of flight diversions to the Bay Area airports. The present research paves the way further data-driven research on interdependent infrastructure networks for increased resilience. The end goal is to form the basis for optimization models behind providing more reliable passenger door-to-door journeys and improved transportation performance.

Welcome to the Waltzingmouse Release Day Blog Waltz! Today is the day that two new stamp sets are available in the shop. As a recap, Claire is introducing Country Labels 4 and USA 1776.
To celebrate the new release, the design team is hosting a blog waltz party. For those who want to play along, just hop (or "waltz") to each of the design team blogs and leave a comment. A randomly selected comment will be eligible to win a stamp set of their choice from Waltzingmouse!
If you've been following along the blog waltz, you should have arrived here from Karin's blog. If not, you may start the waltz at the Waltzingmouse blog so you don't miss a thing.
For my card today, I am featuring the new Country Labels 4 stamp set. This set is a follow up to the Very Vintage Labels 4 stamp set that coordinates with the Spellbinders Labels 4 dies.
I've created a background using the cherries from this stamp set, then piled on the layers with trim, twine, and a die cut label.
To create the quilt-like label, first stamp your label onto a die cut piece of cardstock. Then on a separate piece of cardstock, stamp each of the four sections using different colored ink. Cut each section out and adhere onto the die cut label.
Don't you just love the different patterns in each section?
Of course, I couldn't resist munching on some fresh, seasonal cherries as I was creating this card. I just love summer time fruit.
Well, you've made it through the blog waltz! Yes, I am the last designer on the list.
Don't forget to leave a comment to be eligible to win a stamp set of your choice. If for some reason blogger starts to act up when leaving a comment, you can send me an email by clicking here to be eligible.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you've enjoyed the previews along the blog waltz today!
P.S. Google Reader will end on July 1. Continue to follow my blog on Bloglovin to stay updated!

Transistor - Released & Review Roundup
View Single Post
May 21st, 2014, 19:28
Imho the game is quite overrated and gets a lot of sympathy because its from the bastion guys and because its quite artsy.
But as a Game I dont think it works particularly well.
The German Magazine GameStar.de gave it a 74% and called it too clever to be fun.
Well, of course with the rating system which is commonly used today all games which actually run already get 60%+ upwards anyways.
Personally I wouldnt recommend the game. Played it for 2-3 (out of the 5-7 hours needed to complete the game as it seems) and just didnt have fun. This is what I wrote on steam:
Where Bastion scored with simplicity and threw you right in an involving albeit abstract story where you had fun with the narrator, the spark in Transistor just doesn't ignite.
The story is even more abstract, and what gave you some familiarity in bastion (like talking about the inhabitants, telling you where they lived and what they used to do) you play a singer in Transistor, who was kinda attacked and pulled a speaking electronical sword out of a dead guy which eats souls which are actually programs let's say it's very abstract or "artsy" and does not provide much familiarity. You don't really know/ understand what is happening and what you are doing.
It's about the same with the combat. In Bastion you run around having fun beating on stuff, testing out weapons, destroying objects in the game world. In Transistor there are no objects in the game world which can be destroyed (besides of white blocks) the enemies (evil programs) aren't as plastic as in Bastion and the combat doesn't feel really like one big working mechanism. You hit "turn", can plan for the next couple of seconds, and then hit "turn" again where all the actions are executed. However the planning doesnt feel very good, as it's inexact and you need to issue some orders multiple times "to get them right". It requires some fiddling with the controls and the "planning tool" (holding attack button) might show that it hits enemies, which it actually isn't. And after you executed one turn you need to either fight in unprecise, hectical action combat or flee and run like a little girl and wait till the "turn" button is ready again. This just doesn't feel fun.
And there is the skill system. The skills are souls/programs which you can combine with each other which gives a lot of options and sounds nice on paper. But it doesn't really feel like "I need to try this out!" and rather "ok now how do I built something with it which is at lease somewhat useful?" Also the overview and Interface of the skills isn't really well done and explained well.
The game is actually doing not a great job in explaining several of the mechanics and what is happening in the game. t throws you into the game, gives a hint now and then but you don't feel like you know what you are doing. Something which simply could not happen in Bastion.
Bastion scored with simplicity. You got a bow, shot with it, tweaked it, and it just felt "right".BEsides of that Transistor is also a really short game with it's 5-7h though it has an additional mode with random enemies to bring replayability if this is really what you want.
Therefore I do not recommend this game. If you don't mind the whacky combat and find the abstract story involving, you might be interested. And if you didn't play Bastion yet - get that one instead.
I am aware that some people won't like it if I write a negative review about a game which "must be good, because these guys made bastion" (and who might not even read these lines and downrate it right away) but I think I am intitled to say that Transistor does not live up to the expectations and just doesn't feel right. Switching to a more tactical combat isn't bad. I am a big tactics fan on my own. But it's not well implemented and doesn't feel good and fun.

The Senate majority whip did not know if the White House was on board with the idea, but confirmed that senators were discussing the notion.
"I have no idea whether it's on the White House agenda, but it has been part of our discussion," he said on MSNBC. "We understand that if you take a look at tax expenditures, $1.2 trillion a year, there's room there to save some money and reduce the deficit."
The idea of placing a limit on the total amount of tax deductions a person can claim was first floated on the campaign trail by Republican challenger Mitt Romney. Now, with the two parties in Congress looking for areas to compromise to avert the combination of automatic spending cuts and expiring tax cuts set to take effect in 2013, such a cap is a topic of conversation on Capitol Hill.

They say there is no such thing as a free lunch and, in the world of sandwiches and timeshares, that's almost always true. However, when it comes to the internet, you can still get a free lunch every once in a while. We use a number of free (or near free) tools to simplify and enhance things in our office.
1) LogMeIn
LogMeIn allows you to remote access and control your computer. While LogMeIn offers a free service, this tool can be downright priceless when you find yourself needing information while away from the office. We have often quelled offsite emergencies by being able to login and send an email, update a website, etc. We use LogMeIn's free service, but they do offer increased functionality through their Pro Plan.
2) Wikispaces
Wikispaces is probably the easiest of your wiki options. A wiki is like a mini website that you may allow others to edit. It's especially popular amongst educators who use it as a collaborative tool in their classrooms. Years ago, I had a college professor who loaded course content to the wiki and required students to read and build on that material. Wikispaces actually has some pretty great widgets that let you to embed videos, photos, discussion boards, etc. We do use one of wikis paid plans for $5 a month, but we make use of the free version as well. If you have content you want to allow multiple people to edit or just want to have a low cost, easy website…wikispaces is worth a try.
3) join.me
Owned by the people from LogMeIn, join.me allows you to view or take control of someone else's computer (with their consent of course). It can also allow you to share your screen or let someone else use your computer remotely. I remember when this was an ability only enjoyed by techies and the people from the IT house at college. Now we can all use it. There is nothing quite as frustrating as someone trying to explain to you what they are seeing on their monitor. Join.me lets you get right in there and take control.
4) SincerelyInk
Ok, so this actually an app…and it's closer to being cheap then it is free, but its still awesome. Sincerely Ink allows you to turn a photo on your phone into a beautiful greeting card. For about id="mce_marker".99, Sincerely Ink then PRINTS and SENDS that greeting card to your recipient…IN THE MAIL. Do you remember the mail? I know…it's retro. People actually love it, though. Whenever we have an event with sponsors, exhibitors, etc., we take a great photo of them enjoying themselves at the event and use the app to get the card with that picture sent that day! We also love using it to congratulate people on new jobs, promotions, etc.
5) Doodle.com
Ever try to schedule a meeting amongst busy professionals? We all have packed schedules and it can be pretty difficult getting everyone too settled on one time. Doodle makes that much easier…and kind of fun. Doodle e-mails your selected contacts with potential meeting times. They vote on the time that works for them. When everyone has voted, you can see which time works best. It sounds so simple, but it's actually quite beautiful.
6) Prezi
I love Prezi. If you give presentation and are still using PowerPoint…You need to check out Prezi. It's an online presentation tool that lets you pan and zoom to provide a unique and visually powerful presentation. Check out the free version and if you need enhanced capabilities you may want to consider the pay version. The only real downside to the free version is that all of your presentations are public. Don't get intimidated when it seems a little more difficult than Power Point, it takes some practice to learn but is well worth it! They even have tutorials to help you get started.

Spain lifts European shares towards 8th straight weekly gain
* FTSEurofirst 300 up 0.1 pct
* Spanish shares rise again following ECB, banks in demand
* But Monte Paschi, BNP weigh on national indexes
* Non-farm payrolls due 1230 GMT, wide range of estimates
By Alistair Smout
EDINBURGH, June 6 (Reuters) - Spanish blue chips led European shares towards their eighth straight week of gains on Friday, a day after the European Central Bank eased monetary policy on several fronts, though trade was cautious ahead of U.S. jobs data.
Banks in states on the euro zone periphery were in demand, helping boost Spanish shares by 0.4 percent. Italian shares gave away early gains, however, after Banca Monte Paschi priced a cash call at a discount.
Hopes that the ECB would act have fuelled European stocks on their winning run - the longest on the FTSEurofirst 300 since an 11-week streak in mid-2012 that was supported by ECB President Mario Draghi's pledge to do "whatever it takes" to save the euro.
The FTSEurofirst 300 edged up by 0.1 percent on Friday, with banks up 0.8 percent. Continuación...

Anyone who operates a BMW knows that when it comes to maintaining their automobile only the highest quality replacement parts will do. Car aficionados appreciate the luxury built into each BMW, and know that only the highest quality repair 740Ld xDrive parts will suffice when repairs are needed. When your BMW 740Ld xDrive was born, it was destined for a driver who wants European styling in their automobile. It's not every day that you discover you need a replacement Brake Master Cylinder to fix your vehicle.
The first applications of the use of hydraulic pressure were in mining and supplying water across great distances. Your BMW 740Ld xDrive has a brake system that uses hydraulic pressure generated inside the brake master cylinder. This part uses the force from your brake pedal to compress brake fluid and distribute it to each caliper or wheel cylinder. That is where the braking force from your BMW 740Ld xDrive brake master cylinder is applied; as the calipers and wheel cylinders create the necessary friction so you can regain control of your automobile when necessary.
Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents here with enough expertise to help you select the correct BMW 740Ld xDrive part for your project or repair.

Up to 80% savings with AWS Spot Instances
In a previous post, we outlined the case for selecting cloud infrastructure over an on-premises deployment for managing big data workloads. Taking advantage of Spot instances to realize substantial cost savings is one of the benefits of selecting the cloud. Spot instances are a feature of AWS consisting of spare EC2 instances offered at a discount. The price of the instance changes in real-time based on demand. AWS users make a bid indicating the most they are willing to pay for the instance. If the Spot price is less than the bid, the user receives that instance.
Big Data and Cost Benefits of Using Spot Instances
Big data workloads can be bursty, with data teams needing to scale jobs at a moment's notice. By incorporating Spot instances, data teams can better manage the cost of rapidly growing workloads.
Since Spot instance prices are based on AWS users' bids, using them leads to significant cost savings. When compared to On-Demand instances, users who utilize Spot instances can save up to 80% on the price, even for the same instance type.
Challenges with Managing Spot Instances
While Spot instances can save on cost, they require extensive time and resources to manage due to the following factors:
Automated Spot Instance Management with Qubole
Qubole Data Service (QDS) provides a policy-based way to automate the Spot instance bidding process, allowing data teams to take full advantage of Spot instances without devoting resources to managing it. Qubole can use AWS Spot nodes when dynamically adding cluster nodes or as part of the core minimum nodes for a cluster (not recommended for stability purposes).
QDS users can select a maximum bid they are willing to pay for a Spot instance. The system then automatically places bids for them, making the process easy to use. Qubole Hadoop clusters begin with nodes at On-Demand instances and can be rebalanced automatically by switching On-Demand instances for Spot instances when Spot instance availability is higher. It works by identifying On-Demand instances that aren't busy performing tasks, provisioning Spot instances from AWS, then terminating the previously identified On-Demand instances.
With this ease of use, Qubole clusters can be used for advanced provisioning strategies. Those strategies come in three categories:
Additional built-in intelligence in using Spot nodes with QDS include:
You can read more about integration with AWS Spot nodes in Qubole's documentation. This feature is available for Hadoop, Spark, and Presto clusters.
Customer Data on Usage and Savings
A majority (~82%) of Qubole customers' clusters use automated Spot instances. Qubole customers run nearly half of all their workloads using Spot instances, which yields up to 80% cost benefits as compared to on-demand pricing.
One particular customer, BloomReach, which offers a data-driven marketing solution, was able to utilize Spot instances in 85% of its workloads.
Jorge Rodriguez, Tech Lead in BloomReach's data platform team, explained. "The nice thing about Qubole is that even when Spot instances are reclaimed, your job doesn't necessarily have to fail … because it will just spawn a new Spot instance, and your job will continue running."
To learn more about how BloomReach incorporated Spot instances into its big data ETL environment, click here.
This is part of a series exploring the benefits of cloud architecture. See the first post of the series here, and come back for more on the separation of compute and storage and the economics of provisioning to peak.

"The dti aids shock"
On the 6th of June 2006 almost three years ago I discovered that I was HIV positive. I was for the first time permanently lost for words, but I was finally at peace with why I was dismissed from DHL International a courier company based in Isando few months earlier due to an unknown illness, it was 'HIV' my CD4 count was less than 280 I was constantly sick I was coughing blood, losing weight, and fatigue was kicking in, I was emotionally and intellectually incapacitated, but unlike millions I had a chance to change my life and turn things around for better. I must admit it was difficult at first, but I knew the truth and I was in liberty to make right decisions especially a crucial decision to live and appreciate every second with humbleness and courage.
I am writing this on behalf of my friends one moment they were here now rampaged by AIDS, furthermore in the memory and remarkable legacy of Simon Tseko Nkoli; who through sacrifice of life and dignity, vowed to protect and die for the rights of the minority and the voiceless that he represented with courage sometimes under trying circumstances in public forums where he spoke with conviction as a leader. I! as a young black HIV positive gay man who happens to be South African and a global citizen I fully identify with Simons legacy hence scepticism or fear could not deter me in writing this letter or in beginning this pivotal national dialogue. Simons legacy must be protected through constructive, sharp, fresh and cutting edge rhetoric in our new expanded collective efforts specifically on AIDS related issues and other socio developmental issues that affect the decaying of the legacy left by leaders like Simon who believed in the ideals of a free and a just society where everyone is equal and protected by all organs of government and society that have been mandated with that obligation. I am writing this to remind government especially The Department of Trade and Industry (the dti) that is the prerogative of government to set precedence and to be a shining example in upholding the rights and human dignity of all persons including those that have AIDS. I am writing this on behalf of the cleaners and the tea lady's who confined in me. They who have been forced driven by fear to live a life of secrecy, one day they will also accept a difficult calling to speak and they will come out and say, we are tired of lies and fear in this big dark whole where we are dying alone in silence 'we are also HIV positive'. The core of my person would not permit me to allow what happened and what continues to happen at the dti happen to them.
Almost three years later I left the dti I made a decision to reclaim my life and embrace the activist in me; I needed to make it very clear that, I am no one's tragedy, I am a son of a woman, a brother to a sister, a neighbor to a young man who died from AIDS, a friend of a woman who wakes up every morning to sell veggies on the street corners of Hillbrow to support herself and her daughter because her husband died from AIDS, I am a son of a woman who's life is rooted deep in pain and suffering. I left the dti not because I was weak my decision was influenced by the animalistic and inhuman treatment that I received from some individuals within the organization encouraged by management through ignorance and arrogance during this difficult times of disease, poverty, and a growing scourge of brother to brother hatred. I was treated like a second class citizen in my own country my basic rights and my human dignity were undermined. They without remorse or sympathy: Told me not to drink from the same cup with them. Eat from the same spoon with them. Go to the same bathroom with them. When I applied for a position that I was acting on my manager was instructed to throw my CV in a bin, to shred it, to throw it to the nearest hell because, I have AIDS and I deserved nothing better, when I came out to them they made a mockery of my status and my pain they compared it to lots things like finger cancer 'chop chop its gone', or a car accident ultimately they decided to tell others about my status without my consent, at the dti. These are but a few controversial reasons that influenced my decision to resign from the organization in the morning of the 26th of August 2008.
I feel today as I felt in the midst of this tragedy that someone must speak out. Someone must condemn vehemently and coherently this radical and dangerous behavior blazing with fires of discrimination and hatred because it did not begin with me and it won't end with me. Having shared this with you on a blank paper I would like to further emphasize that it is my believe that the dti engineered my demise through managers who by malicious acts of hatred have created an environment that gave even junior staff members power and ammunition to discriminate and loath without fear and remorse. Albeit I am glad that this is not my legacy; I just like Simon chose not remain defunct and disgruntled. I made history for being the first person to declare publicly his status at the dti; none the less I remained as I am today appalled that this was happening within the government corridors, politically led organs of a society that is in shock day in, day out 'when dying mothers weep as they give birth to dying orphans.' The truth is I don't want to die with untold stories I don't want history to judge me because, just like Simon of the Delmas Treason Trial I have given myself entirely to the course I swallowed my pride, sacrificed my privacy, dignity, freedom I was consumed with hope, faith, responsibility and choice; I accepted doubtlessly and selflessly a calling to speak on the 1st of December 2006 when, I declared my status to all of them. Most of you will probably ask why is he doing this now more than two years later? I am writing this letter because I believe that "Justice" is a birth right a privilege that all persons even those with AIDS must enjoy in our beautiful democracy. I want to condemn as rubbish a perception that declaring your status automatically turns one into a victim, a subhuman whose mere existence is reliant on pity, handouts and remorse; therefore we do not deserve of anything more or anything better because we are the 'victims of our own doings'. I am a young model citizen with written dreams, hungry to write history. I will not let any soul summarize my dreams or write my history and tell my stories on my behalf. 'I have AIDS and I am in control.' This is my final declaration to you as I am on transit seeking Justice that I have been denied for the past two years. Let me round it off by quoting Kofi Anan "We must stop fueling an 'us/them' mentality in which the uninfected deny the existence, the human value and the dignity of the infected. "

Both UK's Mark Stoops and Vanderbilt's Derek Mason will be seeking their first SEC wins as a head coach. The Wildcats will also be seeking their first win over the Commodores in four years and their first win in league play since November 2011, a span of 17 games.
"It's important, it sure is," Stoops said Monday during his weekly press luncheon. "We'd sure like to get one, that's for sure. We work extremely hard each week to go out and put ourselves in a position to win."
Kentucky (2-1, 0-1 SEC) came extremely close to crossing off a couple of those to-do items in its last game, a 36-30 triple-overtime loss at Florida on Sept. 13. Stoops says he likes how his players have responded on the practice field during an open date on the schedule.
"As I said after the last game, I was proud of the effort," he said. "I felt like if we keep on giving ourselves chances like that to win, then we'll get some wins.
Vanderbilt (1-3, 0-2 SEC) has gotten off to a rough start under its new head coach, but has shown signs of improvement in each of the last two weeks. The Commodores lost their first two games of the season by a combined score of 78-10, but rallied from behind to beat UMass 34-31 on Sept. 13 and gave South Carolina a strong challenge last week before falling 48-34.
"(Vanderbilt) played very well," Stoops said of the Dores matchup with the Gamecocks. "Their excitement, you could see that. They were playing extremely hard. You could see they're a team that's building each week. A few new wrinkles. Fundamentally getting better. They do some good things. Very well coached.
"We'll have to play better."
For the first time in a long time, UK will enter an SEC game in the favorite's role. Stoops says he doesn't want his team thinking in those terms.
"(We) certainly need to be a team that's very hungry," he said. "I think our team has played that way this year. We need to stay that way."
Kentucky should have some additional incentive for Saturday's game at Commonwealth Stadium. The Commodores' three-game winning streak over the Cats has come by a combined score of 100-14, including a 40-0 blowout the last time Vandy came to Lexington.
Last year's game in Nashville, a more competitive 22-6 outcome, included a late touchdown tacked on by the Commodores that led to a chilly postgame handshake betweeen Stoops and then-Vandy head coach James Franklin, who is now at Penn State.

I'm pushing through stubborn writers'...Hi! I'm pushing through stubborn writers' block on a d---ed feature project today and enjoyed your article about easy tips on how to do it. It turns out my problem is perfectionism.

I do need to quibble and grouse a bit though with your comment screenwriters will need to submit script outlines to production. I've been in the business in LA since 1987 and I have never seen that happen. Pitch, logline and synopsis are usually what I've asked for or been asked for. And the shorter and more "meet cute" the pitch, the better.

My advice would be concern themselves first, last and throughout with story. Nothing else. Make the story page-one engaging and the characters good and strong, use proper format, and dump the scriptwriting software and use Doc and Pdf, and most of us you pitch to you will be good. How do I know this works? Just got greenlit on a new TV series in November on a one sentence pitch, and we go into fully funded preproduction January.

Now if only beating writers' block (on a different, feature project) were as easy!

I wrote a book about editing (my main occupation) that was published last year, I wrote newspaper columns once or twice a month for about ten years, and after studying screenwriting, I've written one screenplay a year for the past three years. (Haven't sold any of those yet, but I am hopeful.) I don't think I would have the energy to do it on the side if I didn't find it to be fun (mostly fun). In answer to Ebony's question, even though it may be too late to help her personally, I'd recommend a course or two. Many years ago in college I took a two-semester course in journalistic writing. We students wrote for the college newspaper, and we wrote a lot, and I learned things that I still use today.Steve Dunhamhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611949133070980858.post-1659364582092951522015-10-19T16:32:02.635-07:002015-10-19T16:32:02.635-07:00This blog has been most helpful to me and to many ...This blog has been most helpful to me and to many other aspiring writers for many years.

I loved this line. It's the first line of dialogue at the beginning of the film, and not only does it capture the audience's attention, but it sets up the atmosphere of the film, and invites the audience to imagine.

I'll have to watch the video later when I'm not supposed to be at work, but I love thinking about these things!

And, probably the one line I come back to time and time again is:

"We've gone on holiday by mistake!"

From the classic British comedy Withnail and I.

It's not the most exciting line; it isn't full of action, terror, romance of plot development but it is full of comedy. Just the absurdity of possibly going on holiday by mistake, makes me smile every time I watch the film or just think of the line - which is quite often and at least every time anybody EVER mentions a holiday.

And now I can spend the rest of the day thinking about other lines...PurpleHaaHoohttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611949133070980858.post-73074953315762740562015-07-25T19:58:24.748-07:002015-07-25T19:58:24.748-07:00This is a great find, I just pitched to Paradign a...This is a great find, I just pitched to Paradign and fell like ait failed. I was unprepred for the nervousness that usually comes from first tmie interviews. I haven't been in that position in so long I forgot what it is like. Howeverm I have a second pitch with UTA tomorrow and will be working the total pitch out with my co-writer.

My nercousness lead to my tongue beeing tied. Though my passion for the project is rediculous, my execution was silly.

I woudl suggest that anyone sits down and bullet point out the story arch, characterization, the type of cast and locations that are importan to story development as well.

I think sometimes we get caught up on that next immediate job, and selling THIS ONE THING, but if you actually get the meeting, you should try to "book the room" not "book the job." Get them to be fans of you - your personality, your writing etc. Show them that you are a good and friendly human being that is easy to work with.

Even if they don't want to buy THAT script, being on their short list of people they may want to work with down the road could turn out to be an even better result.PTMhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611949133070980858.post-75115868181595856812015-04-15T17:03:45.959-07:002015-04-15T17:03:45.959-07:00I pitched a rom-com at a pitchfest awhile ago (201...I pitched a rom-com at a pitchfest awhile ago (2010, I think?)

this is the cheapest, easiest nic nac shelf you can find. here's what you need:
a yard stick- you should be able to find one at your local hardware store for under a dollar. you can paint it if you like, I left mine in it's natural state.
cut 3 pieces of ribbon all the same length. I made mine about 9 inches long.
fold one ribbon into a circle, overlapping the ends. put the end pointing up on the inside.
put a thumbtack through both ends from the inside. stick it in the wall.
repeat with the other two ribbons, one for each end of the yard stick and one in the middle.
slide the yard stick through the ribbons. you can glue it underneath if you want.
voila! you're done.
here's my shelf:

Spare produced an extraordinary body of realist portraits as well as glamorous portrayals of Hollywood stars, which he painted from existing photographs to create his unusually stylised compositions. The artist referred to these as 'sidereal' portraits. The term was used to denote Spare's unique style, a play on the literal meaning of the term 'of the stars', and 'real from the side.' The present lot portrays Joan Crawford, an American film and television star, one of the greatest female stars of Classic Hollywood Cinema. Spare considered film stars as modern Pagan gods, and through his 'sidereal' adaptations he sought to capture their real existence in a spatial, possibly 'fourth dimension'.

Nothing is quite as comforting as a big bowl of pasta, but sometimes that can leave you feeling sluggish and overly full. Opt for zucchini-based noodles instead to get a fresh taste and easy to twirl texture that can hold up to your favorite sauces. For this recipe, store-bought pesto helps bring the dish together quickly while combining with ripe avocado for a decadently creamy (yet low calorie) meal.
- 3 medium zucchinis, spiralized
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons jarred pesto
- 1/2 very ripe avocado
- Optional toppings: Fresh basil, freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Google Will Shut Down the Meebo Bar Publishing Tool on June 6th
Photo of the author, Jennifer Beese by Jennifer Beese on April 29, 2013
Google announced that it will retire its Meebo Bar publishing tool on June 6th to focus more on projects like Google+ Sign-In and plug-ins.
Founded in 2005, Meebo is a messaging service that put out several advertising and social networking products. Included in the line-up was the Meebo Bar, which enabled web publishers to make it easier for visitors to "discover, browse, and share content on their site."
Acquired by Google last June, the service's product team helped to build publisher tools for Google+ with the expectation that existing Meebo products would be integrated or shut down. Although many of those products were disabled soon after acquisition, the Meebo Bar relaunched last December with Google+ sharing options.
But now Meebo is the focus of Google's latest round of spring cleaning, where it will join the likes of Google Voice App for BlackBerry and Google Reader. While this will have little effect on most websites, publishers utilizing the bar will need to look into other advertising and social networking features.
The Meebo Bar will stop loading on sites after June 6th and it's recommended that you remove the inactive code from your site. This can, of course, be done beforehand through your content management system (such as WordPress or Blogger). Additionally, Meebo Bar analytics will be accessible through the Meebo Dashboard until June 30th. We recommend that you download them for future access.

As the Battle of Long Island on August 27, 1776, neared its conclusion, General Washington knew all was lost. The British routed the Patriots, most of whom lacked experience and training. As he prepared to retreat, he watched the well-drilled 1st Maryland Regiment repeatedly and valiantly charge Cortelyou House, as the Maryland Line warded off the British advance to allow the rest to escape. Washington then turned to General Israel Putnam and said, "Good God, what brave fellows I must this day lose."
But they could only delay, not halt the British. The 1st Maryland's commander, General William Alexander, also known as Lord Stirling, became a prisoner of war. Make no mistake, saving Washington saved the Continental Army and made victory in the war possible. Washington rightly called it an "hour more precious to American liberty than any other." One New York newspaper called Lord Stirling "the bravest man in America."
Born in New York City sometime in 1726, Alexander was the son of James Alexander a lawyer who fled Scotland in 1716 as a political refugee after a failed uprising. The father continued to battle authority, making an enemy of Royal Governor William Cosby. The father started an anti-Cosby newspaper, the New-York Weekly Journal, with Peter Zenger as publisher. Cosby charged Zenger with criminal libel over an editorial. Alexander was one of Zenger's original lawyers, but the judge found James Alexander in contempt and the governor had him disbarred. Zenger's second set of lawyers, Andrew Hamilton and William Smith Sr., made legal history by successfully using the truth as a defense in a criminal libel case.
During the French and Indian War, the son worked as a provisioning agent for the British. It was in this capacity that he first met George Washington, as both men rose through colonial society.
When William Alexander's father died on April 2, 1756, the son sought the title Earl of Stirling, which became dormant with the death of his grandfather. The title carried with it claims to valuable land along the coast of New England. He moved to England to pursue this title and wound up with the lesser, but still prestigious title of Lord Stirling.
Using his inheritance from his father, he lived like a Scottish lord in New Jersey, dabbling in wine-making. In 1767, the Royal Society of Arts awarded Lord Stirling a gold medal for his pioneering work in the cultivation of vineyards on his New Jersey estate.
Lord Stirling was a Patriot. When the Revolutionary War began, he raised and funded a regiment, acquiring the title colonel. His finest hour came at Long Island, when his brigade held the British back just long enough, despite being outnumbered 25 to 1. Protecting Washington saved the revolution. Indeed, the 1st Maryland's exemplary performance is why in Maryland's nickname: is the Old Line State.
But Lord Stirling wound up a prisoner of war. Fortunately, a brash American naval officer, John Paul Jones, had invaded Nassau earlier that year and captured Montfort Browne, the royal governor of that colony. Upon his return in a subsequent prisoner exchange, Lord Stirling received a promotion to major general, and he became a trusted aide of George Washington.
He may have saved Washington a second time by uncovering a possible conspiracy by General Horatio Gates and others to have Gates replace Washington as commander-in-chief. What a disaster that would have been. While Gates took credit for the Battle of Saratoga, in New York, where British General John Burgoyne surrendered his entire army, the real heroes were Benedict Arnold and Daniel Morgan. The incident was a large reason Arnold became a turncoat. Gates would prove himself unworthy during his disastrous leadership in the Southern campaign in 1780.
Lord Stirling, however, like many a vintner, became too fond of the grape. As Washington's army advanced on Yorktown, the general left Lord Stirling in New York with a lesser command. Alcoholism killed him on January 15, 1783, in Albany, which is a shame because when the nation needed him most, Lord Stirling had shined. Now he is largely forgotten.
They do remember him at Columbia. He was a founder and the first governor of Kings College, which later became Columbia University. And each October, the Somerset County Park Commission in New Jersey holds the Lord Stirling 1770s Festival at the site of his stately manor in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. Included are tours of his wine cellar.

"Star Trek" promo blasting off six months early
By Jay A. Fernandez and Borys Kit
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Paramount already has hit warp speed with its high-profile relaunch of the "Star Trek" franchise.
For its first 2009 tentpole, the studio has taken the unprecedented step of rolling out a full-scale promotional tour for "Star Trek" nearly six months before its May 8 release.
Despite "Trek's" indisputable cultural brand and avid fan base, the filmmakers and the studio hope to bypass two potential obstacles on the way to blockbuster returns: the MySpace generation's unfamiliarity with the series and genre, and the franchise's typically anemic performance in the global market.
"'Star Trek,' especially in the foreign territories, is perceived as one thing," director J.J. Abrams told The Hollywood Reporter. "Paramount thought it was really important to get it out there and show them that it's another."
On Wednesday, Abrams made a good-natured, enthusiastic, 25-minute presentation to a crowd of invited journalists, executives and studio employees in a theater on the Paramount lot. With requisite introductions, Abrams showcased the new trailer and four distinct sequences from the movie. In the past week, the "Trek" roadshow had traveled to Rome; Cologne, Germany; Madrid; Paris; London; and New York.
Teaser trailers for potential summer blockbusters often make their first appearances a year in advance; a "Trek" teaser was paired with this past summer's tentpoles. But any real footage or extended trailers typically are reserved to make a big splash with an airing during something like the Super Bowl in February.
Yet here was Abrams -- who's made it his modus operandi to work under cloaks of invisibility and silence -- putting not only himself but also his actors and film in the spotlight far in advance of the movie's opening.
Since Paramount pushed back the "Trek" release from its original 2008 holiday date, the director had the advantage of finishing his movie early, unusual for rush-to-the-deadline summer tentpoles. So extensive footage -- including action sequences -- are available to preview. Continued...
