Biography (Critical Survey of Poetry)
Despite the depiction of incessant wanderings and frequent allusions to "die weite Welt" (the wide world) in the writings of Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff, the poet himself actually had limited exposure to the world beyond the reaches of his native Upper Silesia in southeastern Germany. His journeys were primarily spiritual ones; even university days in Halle and Heidelberg, a student trip to Paris and Vienna, and eventual civil service posts in Breslau, Danzig, Berlin, and Königsberg did not take him to those distant, exotic, non-German-speaking lands, the Welschland, which his work often evokes. His birthplace, the Castle Lubowitz near Ratibor, remained at least the physical mecca to which he periodically returned until the deteriorating financial status of his aristocratic family forced the sale of all its properties in 1822.
By the age of ten, when Eichendorff first read the New Testament and was moved by the story of Christ's Passion, he had already been introduced through the Polish and German folk songs and fairy tales of his native region to the second guiding force of his life, the power of poetry. The poet's deep commitment to the Roman Catholic faith and his love for the music and beauty of words as well as his soon proven facility with them were to sustain him for his entire life, even when professional success as a governmental official was withheld from him and external pressures were overwhelming.
Eichendorff had ample discourse with gifted representatives of the Romantic movement, first in 1807, at the University of Heidelberg, where he heard the lectures of the philosopher Joseph von Görres and where he made the acquaintance of such leading literary figures as Clemens...

Biography (Cyclopedia of World Authors, Fourth Revised Edition)
Romanticism has probably been the most enduring literary trend in German history, and without any doubt Joseph von Eichendorff (I-kuhn-dahrf) is one of the reasons that for a great number of Germans, Romanticism is still the most meaningful literature. Eichendorff, the "happy wanderer" who declares that everything is right in this world if only we will learn that even grief is part of something greater than ourselves, was born in 1788 in the well-sheltered castle of his parents at Lubowitz. He came from an old aristocratic family; one critic named him the "last knight of knights." In his writings he identifies himself with the experiences of ordinary people and makes frequent use of folklore.
His happy childhood at the castle became the reservoir for all his Romantic outpourings until the very end. When the Napoleonic wars endangered the castle, his parents decided to send him to the faraway universities at Halle and Heidelberg. In Heidelberg his inclinations toward Romanticism were strengthened when he met the two writers Achim von Arnim and Clemens Brentano, who achieved fame with their collection of purported old German folk songs, Des Knaben Wunderhorn (1805; the boy's magic horn). He also met Joseph Görres, a fellow Romanticist and the literary leader of German Catholicism. Eichendorff, an unwavering Catholic throughout his life, was influenced by Görres's enthusiasm for revolution and became a member of the resistance movement...

Definition of glass eel in English:
glass eel
Syllabification: glass eelnoun
- An elver at the time that it first enters brackish or fresh water, when it is translucent.More example sentences
- Coloration is variable with maturity level, the larval stage is called a leptocephalus, or glass eel.
- Fishing for glass eel could also continue if these eels are used for restocking rivers but not used for aquaculture.
- For instance, limits will be set on fishing for glass eels used in aquaculture, while eel passes, similar to salmon ladders, are to be introduced to lessen the impact of dams and weirs that block upstream migration.

Luckily, leftists in all sorts of dangerous situations, under conditions of illegality, surveillance, and war, have managed to do without them for well over a century. Masks, after all, aren't good for talking to people. They're good for robbing banks and running around drunkenly on Halloween terrifying small children. But why would you need to waste time talking to people when there is action to be taken? It's as if the old socialist appeal to "educate, organize, agitate" has morphed in a drone-like call for just the latter. Shit is fucked up and bullshit.

I must admit, I do not own the book but based my design on the stuff that could be found on the internet. I love geometric shapes and was directly attracted to the 'Veronica Geometric top'. Yet I wanted to make a dress version of it, and to make it a bit more 'my own' I did not make the crosspoints mirrored but slightly out of centre.
It's wintertime in my country (snow and freezing tempratures) so I made a winter version with wooly fabrics and some lining. The dress itself is sleeveless but it was just to darn cold to wear without a shirt under it haha!
My mom (who made the pics) does not sew much anymore (I learned from her) but she really wanted to make this one for herself for it has slimming qualities ;-)
Warm wooly fabrics I bought at the market for so little money, makes it even nicer I think!

Great dress! I like the slight asymmetry. It gives the dress a wonderful edge without being loud.

How to Apply to Law School as an Engineer or Scientist
A STEM background can set you apart from other applicants if you present it correctly.
In this installment of Law Admissions Q&A, a monthly feature in Law Admissions Lowdown that provides expert admissions advice to readers who write in with their questions, I will focus on how engineers and those with a science background can best position themselves for success in law school admissions.
Dear Shawn: At age 10, my dad received his first patent. As any proud daughter would, I bragged to all of my classmates that I was going to become a patent attorney. I neither understood the patent nor had any concept of what patent attorneys did, but the idea stuck. By the time I entered college, I started to put in motion the steps I needed to take to make this dream a reality.
My desire to become a patent attorney also fit well with what I would term a genetic predisposition to engineering; much of my immediate family is in engineering. Thus, it was natural that I studied engineering in college, and I also kept very busy with sports and jobs, which helped me learn time management and teamwork. I have been working for about a year in engineering since graduation.
I took the February 2012 LSAT and scored in the high 160s. Will my 3.2 GPA keep me from getting into top tier intellectual property schools? How much work experience or legal background do employers typically want from their patent attorneys? -Patent Fever
Dear Patent Fever: With a strong application package (essays, recommendations, and so forth), you will be competitive at many of the top intellectual property law programs in the nation notwithstanding your slightly lower GPA. To a certain extent, law schools understand the tough grading curve in the sciences and engineering.
[Read more about how law applicants can handle low scores.]
I recently worked with a candidate with a similar LSAT score and lower GPA and less work experience, who ended up getting into a number of the top IP/patent programs in the country. The amount of relevant work experience you have before law school is less important than your demonstrated passion for the field in which you want to work. Also, a strong background in the sciences, which you appear to possess, is a prerequisite for a successful patent law application.
As you may know, it is very important that you choose the schools to which you apply based on the strength of their patent/intellectual property programs, and not just their overall ranking. For example, the University of Houston Law Center, the Santa Clara University School of Law and the George Washington University Law School have extraordinarily strong intellectual property programs even though they are not in the top 10 law schools overall. For more, you can explore U.S. News' list of the top intellectual property programs.
Dear Shawn: I have a B.A. and master's in the sciences from two top schools, and I have had a few related scientific jobs throughout school. I have a couple of specific questions about law school.
During undergrad, I didn't take many courses in political science or anything that is remotely typical of many law school applicants. How do I best market myself to law schools given that my background is heavily steeped in natural sciences? Also, what is the best way to convince law schools that I am serious in my application and about my change in careers? -Atypical Applicant
Dear Atypical Applicant: Having a background in science will not hurt you in the application process—and in many ways, it represents an invaluable point of differentiation. Law schools want a diverse class, so they are looking for applicants from various disciplines. They care more about why you want to go to law school and what you plan to do with your J.D. than what legal or public policy experience you already have.
In your application, be very clear about why you are making the switch from science to law and how you will leverage your scientific knowledge in your work as a lawyer. With the emergence of increasingly complex technologies, an educational background in science is becoming essential for various subfields of law.
Consider pinpointing one moment or event that was the turning point that shaped your decision to pursue law, and structure your essay around that. This will be helpful in convincing the admissions committees that you are serious about law.

Paul Brannigan, an Actor with No Training, is a Star at Cannes… and Did a Nude Scene with Scarlett Johansson
May 24, 2012 by Chris McKittrick
Filed under Film
Before this year's Cannes Film Festival, nobody had ever heard of the actor Paul Brannigan. That's because he didn't exist: though Brannigan was cast in the lead role of Ken Loach's whiskey-soaked comedy The Angels' Share, he isn't a trained actor. Appropriately for a film about unemployment, Brannigan was unemployed when he was cast in the film and, upon his return to Glasgow after Cannes, he still will be looking for a job.
Brannigan was cast in the role of Robbie after writer/director Loach's co-writer, Paul Laverty, discovered him working at a community center. After Cannes, Brannigan admits he will remain unemployed and will still be volunteering at the center. He explains, "I do four hours a week football (soccer) coaching, and that's just the way it is. There's thousands and thousands of kids like Robbie in Glasgow." Read more

Errol Morris may be always be known as the man who inspired director Warner Herzog to eat his own shoe, but the storied career of the Academy Award winning documentarian has done its own part to establish him as an artist who can surely walk on his own two feet.

I propose to use this post, like a poll, for forum people…
I will start:
Well, Todas las letras for iPad, of course.http://itunes.apple.com/app/todas-las-letras/id540437129?mt=8
#It's free, it's cool, and I made it.
Seriously, though, I'm going with The New Yorker magazine because of the way they translated the print edition to digital so elegantly. I intend to have a look at Scientific American this week also since they just began a DPS edition.
I'm pleased to share it. The method behind the entire project is described here www.milibrodelasletras.com as well as a link to the code for the writing/drawing canvas (hint: it's the HTML5 canvas tag). Additionally, it has been added to Bob Bringhurst's free iPad app, DPS Tips, and finally included in the DPS cookbook.
One regret I have about the project is that it is difficult to find a place on the page titled "Juego" - where I have the letter matching game - to swipe to the final acknowledgents page. I think that many people never make it there, and that is where I provide links for all of the content creation.

Distribution on PBS Plus August 2005
"THE GRANGE FAIR: AN AMERICAN TRADITION" chronicles a vanishing piece of Americana, one of the last remaining agricultural encampment fairs in the country, and the families who spend months preparing for this unique rural phenomena. Now in its 131st year, the week-long Centre County Grange Fair in Pennsylvania boasts a small city of almost a thousand residential tents and a fleet of 1,300 recreational vehicles housing thousands of families. Thousands more attend the family reunions, the attractions and agricultural competitions.
Originally conceived in 1874 as a one-day picnic to introduce rural residents to the Grange organization, the fair grew to become, as did other American Grange fairs, a social highlight of the year and main point of information exchange for rural agricultural communities. Produced by Penn State Public Broadcasting.

Julie doll Apr 17, 2012 18:27:29 GMT -5 Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostMemberGive GiftBack to Top Post by agluv13 on Apr 17, 2012 18:27:29 GMT -5 I have had my Julie for about 2 years now and she is gorgeous. Her eye/hair combination is very pretty. I cannot get over her silky, long blonde hair which is easy to style and stunning. I removed her braid and because that section of hair was kinky, I used a flat iron on a low temperature on it and it's now just as smooth and straight as the rest of her hair. I have chosen to keep my Julie historical but I'm sure she'd look good more modern, too. Overall, a lovely, photogenic doll.

I love doing her hair, and have had no problems with chinky braids (though her hair was only in it for 2 days, it got messy quickly)

I had been collecting Julie's clothes and accessories for awhile but I really didn't want Julie (or so I thought). Two years ago for our anniversary my (late) DH gifted me with Julie and I fell in love with her. DH made it so much fun because I would set the dolls up with their pets, toys, etc. and if I left the room...I would return to find everything switched around...LOL! The funniest thing was when I walked into our great room to find a human sized banana in Julie's bike basket...LOL! DH nicknamed her "Trouble" because he always claimed he had nothing to do with switching things around or the banana incident...LOL! I love her so much. DH pierced her ears for me in early 2011 and I added somelight freckles. ETA Photos:

I got her at AGPDC this summer. Lets start with her eyes! She has beautiful brown eyes that look divine with her blond hair. Her hair has such a beautiful shine to it and is the perfect length but can be very hard to style at times. My biggest complain about Julie is that her hair sheads so much! Whenever I brush it some hair falls out. I am afraid to brush it to much. In other reviews people have not had this problem. I have only noticed this in the newer dolls. My good friend also has an older julie and the texture is a lot different. Overall she is a great doll dispite the hair problem.

I had wanted Julie for a while but some how other dolls kept cutting in line in front of her. Since I grew up in the 70s I finally added her to my collection.She really is a gorgeous doll. Her hair is so silky and I love her big, brown eyes. Her meet outfit really reflects fashion as I remember it in the 70s. In fact I had a gauze shirt similar to the one she's wearing when I was growing up.

Now I know how wrong I was. She is so gorgeous! Shes very photogenic and she just looks fabulous in anything I put on her! I especially like her in the Sweet Peach Glasses and pastel colors! Her hair is long and silky, though she is my second doll and the first doll I had with long hair, so Abby's hair is a little bit frizzy at the ends, but I am working on fixing it xD. The braid was a problem at first. I didn't keep it in for more than an hour after getting her. It was very bothersome and for my doll, the braid was practically hanging in the middle of her face! Taking it out it became wavy (like i expected) and it looked very awkward next to her long, silky straight hair. Eventually it started to fade, but to top it off, I did end up straightening her hair. Her eyes are dark brown and they are in the pinwheel form. I love the combination of blonde hair and brown eyes, so i was very happy when I saw her stunning brown eyes. The outfit is really well made! The blouse is adorable and I love it so much, the braided belt is very cute and really makes the top look even more fantastic. The pants I was iffy about, but I get that AG was trying to give her a 70's look the shoes are so cute and I still use them! The book is very inspiring and extremely well written! I love her relationship with Ivy and I can relate to moving away and missing your old friends, but also making new ones the doll herself earned an A+! The meet outfit just got an A.Her book got an A+!Overall, I give her an A- because of some hair issues I've had. I recommend her to anyone from the ages 9+, not very good for younger collectors because of her extremely long hair

Decode JSON from a RESTful request
31 August 2010 at 2:32pm
Hi All,
I maybe silly doing it this way and please if you have a better suggestions I would love to hear it...
I am trying to get the Remote IP address, but the native PHP $_SERVER variable are not giving me the information that I need to work out the clients country.
Basically I am building a site for a .com.au company and they want to either tell their .co.nz customers that they should be going to the .co.nz site not the .com.au site (hope that makes sense).
So I am trying to get the users IP address but it is always coming back as 192.168.*.* etc because they are behind routers etc.
I have found a site that returns a JSON value for the IP address that has been correct each time I have tried it and a friend in NZ has also tried.
Anyway, I notice that http://doc.silverstripe.org/restfulservice doesn't support JSON. Is there any way for me to get this information into a variable so I can feed it into my other function that pulls back the country of the IP address...
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Colin -
Re: Decode JSON from a RESTful request

Not sure if this helps, but you could always use the PHP json_decode function to convert JSON encoded values into PHP objects/variables.

Well, a guy answered my question in a very poor way. So, I flagged his useless response and told him why I was flagging it. The guy came back by down-voting my question and scolding me. Naturally, I told him that his feedback was as helpful as his answering style.... Why would I get dinged 90 points? This guy is a total jerk, and I get warned. I think Stack Overflow's moderators just don't care enough about the community to read through the threads that get reported. Is this possible? Why else would they punish me? I mean, typically you punish behavior that you disapprove of and reinforce behavior that you approve of. As far as I could see, I was making strong statements about how I believe questions should be answered, but I wasn't being rude at any point in the thread. The other person in the conflict, on the other hand, was abusing the rating system and harassing me by downvoting me not only on that thread, but on multiple threads.
You didn't permanently lost the points, you were suspended for a week. When a user is suspended, they go to 1 reputation point. |
It looks like it's from THIS QUESTION. It even looks like you necro'd it after 9 months to respond to Pekka's comment with such constructive comments as And it wasn't closed by just a "moderator", it was Jeff who is the founder of the site. I wouldn't make too much fuss about it. Learn from it. |
I haven't either seen your question nor the answer or the tread you are talking about. To my opinion the tone in asking and answering has to be all the time objective. Especially for the asker, he wants something from the community, So even if the answer is "in a very poor way", I would presume that the poster wants to help me and spent some of his valuable time for me. So the correct way here (IMO) is not to flag the answer as "not an answer", its to ask in comments for clarification, an example and explain why this does not help you(, yet). And if the answer was really that poor, just ignore it and let the community do their work ... |
Comment Up Votes don't garner points for anyone. The ten clicks on "this is a great comment" for that comment were simply from other people who agreed with its sentiment. |

Alex Rodriguez's cousin, Yuri Sucart, selling 2009 replica World Series ring
Yuri Sucart, the cousin of New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez, is selling a 2009 World Series ring Rodriguez obtained for him through an online auctioneer, the New York Daily News' Michael O'Keefe reported Sunday.
Rodriguez said in 2009 that Sucart was the one who pushed him to use steroids earlier in his career, repeatedly injecting him with a substance from the Dominican Republic. After the Yankees won the World Series that season, Rodriguez gave him a diamond-studded ring as a gift.
O'Keefe reported that Sucart was "apparently tired of the notoriety that comes with being associated with Rodriguez," and he recently sold the ring to a South Florida collector who consigned it to auctioneer Ken Goldin and his company, Goldin Auctions. Goldin told the Daily News that the ring will have an opening bid of $5,000 and could go for as much as $40,000.
Rodriguez is currently rehabbing from offseason hip surgery that will sideline him until at least the All-Star break. His spokesman, Terry Fahn, told ESPN.com's Wallace Matthews that Sucart's ring was one of many replicas he had made for friends and family:
"Alex Rodriguez made numerous replica World Series rings for friends and family. He didn't know that Yuri Sucart was selling one of them."

WASHINGTON — Approve the Keystone XL pipeline, or we'll do it for you.
That's the message Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., wants President Barack Obama to take from Friday's overwhelming bipartisan Senate votes in support of the project.
"I think it makes it clear that the president needs to move forward, and, if he doesn't, we have the votes to do it in Congress," Hoeven said.
Pipeline opponents stressed the fact that Friday's votes possess no real legal impact, that they were on amendments to a nonbinding budget resolution. The Obama administration retains control over the pipeline's fate, at least for now.
But the fact that a filibuster-proof Senate majority gave the project a big symbolic thumbs-up left Hoeven and Rep. Lee Terry, R-Neb., feeling good about their efforts to force approval of the pipeline.
Both have introduced legislation that would strip the president of the decision and simply approve it.
The Senate voted 62-37 in favor of Hoeven's budget amendment endorsing the pipeline, with 17 Democrats joining all of their Republican colleagues in support.
Senators also rejected by a vote of 66-33 an amendment by Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., that laid out a long list of criteria for approving the project.
Because the 800,000 barrels-a-day, Canada-to-Texas oil pipeline would cross an international border, it requires State Department review and a presidential permit.
Multiple State Department studies have found that the project poses little environmental risk, but the process continues to drag on without a decision after more than four years of review and a change in the Nebraska portion of the route to avoid the state's fragile Sand Hills and Ogallala Aquifer.
There is an ongoing public comment period for the latest federal environmental impact study, but pipeline supporters such as Hoeven and Terry are pushing to get the project approved sooner.
Opponents continue to throw up red flags over the potential for oil spills and the impact on greenhouse gas emissions that they say would accelerate global climate change.
Boxer questioned how much of the pipeline's oil would be exported, how much foreign steel would be used in its construction, how many private property rights would be affected and how much it would contribute to climate change.
"How will this affect our national security — this dirty tar sands oil?" Boxer said. "American national security experts warn us against the instability worldwide caused by climate disruption."
Hoeven said Boxer was pushing "an effort to prevent construction of the most-studied pipeline project in the history of the United States."
Republican Sens. Mike Johanns and Deb Fischer of Nebraska and Chuck Grassley of Iowa voted in favor of the pipeline on both votes, while Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, voted against the pipeline both times.
Johanns noted the various environmental studies that have been completed and said it's time to move forward.
"There just really isn't any reason to keep holding it up," Johanns said.
Terry has led the pro-pipeline charge in the House, which has voted repeatedly in favor of the project.
Terry's latest legislation to force approval was expected to get a floor vote before Memorial Day, but Friday's Senate action raises hopes that the timeline could be sped up, said Terry spokesman Larry Farnsworth.
That is unwelcome news to pipeline opponents such as Nebraskan Jenni Harrington, who said the pipeline would run through her family farm in northern York County — just a mile and a half from her house. She is concerned about the potential for spills, as well as the contribution to climate change.
Harrington suggested those in Washington are listening too much to the oil industry and not enough to people like her.
"We just don't feel like we can get anybody to have a conversation about the concerns we have," she said.

Iphone display doesn't turn on
Hello everyone,
I had bought a used 3g one year ago. Its wi-fi wasn't working so i applied the "oven method". It worked out but it kept losing it after a while. So last month, i (I know i didn't do good on this) put it into the oven again, but this time i heated the oven 5 degrees more.
To make a long story short, after this operation,
1. When i power it on, the display shows nothing, no matter what i do.
2. When i plug it into the PC, it recognizes it as in the DFU mode or sometimes in the "Recovery Mode". But again, the screen shows nothing.
3. When i try to restore it,
a. If i do it when it is in the DFU mode, i get errors 23, 31xx.
b. If i do it when it is in the Pwned DFU mode i get 16xx.
So, what do you think the problem could be?
Thanks... - 03-15-2012, 01:10 PM #2
Hmm oven and phone sounds like a wonderful idea you prob cooked the board or need a new screen

Sounds like someone's got a girl crush on Jennifer Garner.
While accepting the Tiffany Luminary award at Variety's Fourth Annual Power of Women luncheon Friday in Beverly Hills, Calif., Jessica Biel couldn't help but gush about the "Butter" star, who presented her with the honor.
"Always the Shirley to my Laverne," Garner, 40, said as she introduced Justin Timberlake's bride.
PHOTOS: Jennifer Garner's life as a supermom
After taking the stage, Biel, 30, had equally kind words for the "Odd Life of Timothy Green" actress.
"There's a fine line between admiring someone and creepily wanting to actually be them," Biel told the star-studded audience, which included A-listers like Timberlake; Garner's hubby, Ben Affleck; Halle Berry; Felicity Huffman; Katherine Heigl; Queen Latifah and more. "I feel like I'm constantly walking that line with you."
Biel and Garner starred together in 2010's ensemble rom-com "Valentine's Day," and the happily reunited co-stars made it a point to spend time together during the afternoon gathering.
PHOTOS: Jennifer Garner's life as a supermom
At the luncheon, the former "7th Heaven" star even initiated a mini photo shoot, snapping an image of her seated next to Garner.
"I'm the best at taking self pics!" she captioned the shot. "But seriously, how beautiful is Jen?"

While rummaging though, I realize I've got every farking dress Baiastice ever made including all from her PRE-MESH days and well, let's be real I don't need those. So I started deleting, checking dates, more deleting and then I realized I didn't remember this dress. Continue reading

Lamar, Colorado
Lamar Sportsman's RV Center and Horse Motel
[ 3/10 ]
Sites were pull throughs, however if other campers were here it would have been really tight to maneuver a big rig. Laundry facility was very clean, although a little expensive to wash ($2). We would probably not stay here again.
Cheyenne, Wyoming
Greenway Trailer Park & Sales
[ 4/10 ]
This campground is easily accessible and conveniently located near all shopping and restaurants. Staff is friendly, Wi-Fi is great. The park is part of a larger trailer park with lots of permanent somewhat rundown campers/trailers. Not exactly kid friendly. Road noise, airplanes, and emergency vehicles noticeable especially at night. We stayed here several weeks, while hubby worked. Probably would not stay here again.

On the production end, Jarvis refers to Taylor as "the production organizer" and manager. "He'll always get the schedule together, get the actors there, scout [locations] and secure locations," said Jarvis, who is usually behind the camera unless he is playing Sam Atkinson, Jacob's drugged-out agent. In order to produce professional video quality, Jarvis read up on lighting tricks, sound quality and emphasized cutting out material that "exposes" the web series as "amateur."
"Oh, we're very ghetto," confessed Taylor. "I mean, Audra McDonald called us 'Ghetto Productions.'" Although the series creators admitted to using tricks such as actors also being the microphone operators, their web series quality is crisp, clean and professional.
Watch the third episode, where Jacob Green encounters Ben Farrel (Chanler-Berat), the new object of his affection. Taylor admitted that in close scenes with Chanler-Berat, they often alternate holding the microphone underneath the camera sightlines.

"It's tricky," said Taylor. "We're a two-person crew. We don't have people helping. My boyfriend Gregg Wiggins is a director, [and] he was [assistant director] for us on our last big epic shoot of 30 people in a small studio apartment — 20 extras and the cast. It was a ten-hour shoot, and it was so epic, and we needed someone to help us. [Mitchell's] girlfriend wrangled the extras, and my boyfriend ran the day… It was surprising how much easier everything was when you have someone making sure you're not running low on time and announcing each shot and telling the background what to do… Usually it's just me and [Mitchell]… I feel like most of the magic happens in the editing [room], and it just gives you so much respect for editing…"
"It's a beautiful lie," Jarvis interjected. "It's probably I'd say 60 hours [of editing] work an episode — depending on the content of the episode."
Watch the tenth episode of the series, in which Jacob has a big party (with 20 extras) at his apartment:
