Love it! Thanks for sharing! Any chance you could show before/after retouching? Also, if you don't mind me asking, what fog machine did you use? The one I have produces a blue-ish fog.
Thanks! That was good.

It's fun to see reflectors being used creatively! Thanks for sharing.

How did Jon Beattie shoot Pharrell's "24 Hours of Happy"?
By now you have probably seen the viral 24 hour music video by Pharrell Williams. If you haven't you should check out the dedicated website 24hoursofhappy.com that presents you a clock to scrub through 24 hours of individual people dancing and having fun in front of the camera.
While we have seen tons of coverage on the idea and background about the singer, the one thing cinema5D was really interested in was who shot this very terrific looking, smooth footage, which camera was used and how did they pull it off?
The steadicam operator Jon Beattie (DP: Alexis Zabe) shared a behind the scenes look at the project and told us how it was executed. Jon told us that the Arri Alexa was the camera used for the project with "…a 50mm anamorphic Panavision c-series lens.".
(more on the lens later)
Jon also mentioned that he shot the entire piece using a steadicam mostly on foot or a rickshaw.
The steadicam used was an Artemis Cine HD with a Tiffen G70 arm & pro vest.
Most surprisingly the whole 24 hours worth of music video and steadicam action was shot within 10 days!!!!!!!!!! That really says something about the low budget indie nature of the project and I'd say their success is well deserved.
Beattie says: "No take 2′s (in 370 setups there were maybe 10 resets or 2nd takes) no rehearsals & walking 12-15km a day for the show."
Clearly authenticity was something the filmmakers were aiming at capturing which also meant any mistakes during this exhausting shoot were part of the music video experience. Surprisingly there are hardly any noticeable flaws in terms of camera movement.
Some people noted that the image on the video often appears soft. Jon mentioned to us that this is mostly due to the high compression used on the website and also said that the lens used has a certain soft look to it and was mostly shot wide open.
"The c series anamorphic Panavision lens is from the 70's. F stop's that were used varied from 1.4- 2.8/4 split."
"By nature the lens gives a very soft look especially at the lower f stops finding that the lens appeared softer the further from its nodal point.
No traditional video village was used. As we're were on the go. There was holding but we would go out in a small wagon train get dropped off and the vans would roll out. Sort of like getting dropped into the nam.
We had 15-30 person tail behind camera at all times. Directors and DP had handheld wireless monitors. Zabe would run ahead while we were rolling light meter out where we were going and then running back to give Scott Johnson the 1st Ac exposure changes.
On the handheld monitors we used the Teradek Bolt system paired with SmallHD's 7.7″ OLED monitors which all worked great parading throughout LA. "
Arsen Ourmouzov November 28, 2013
i thought it was Epic;
if i was shooting this I'd go 'Snake Eyes' style.
Rik November 28, 2013
They wouldn't have been able to shoot it on RED in 10 days without restarts. RED still has major stability issues on very intense usage like this. Fine for 99,99% of the use cases, but it would've caused a bit of a delay on this project I bet.
che December 2, 2013
I disagree. I've been on plenty of accelerated-pace features that shot RED. While it's true that the RED will sometimes crap out on you — frustratingly so — I've also been on multiweek jobs with no glitches at all. I think the RED cameras are still suffering the bad rap they got from their initial release. And their terrible, terrible menu system. That said, as an AC, I'd far rather go out with an Alexa than a RED.
william scherer November 28, 2013
Great idea and good execution. I don't know why mentioning the camera and special lens was so important. It would have looked the same way with a Canon 5D and a consumer lens.
SeanCC November 28, 2013
No. Just, no.

Ethan Vincent November 29, 2013
hm. strange that my reply was faster than your comment. I must be on a different planet.
Nolan November 28, 2013
@ William scherer
Can't tell if you're being serious, but:
1. 5D does have the latitude that the Alexa has so the outdoor stuff would be totally different
2. Anamorphic lenses look significantly different than regular lenses, plus "consumer glass" would create a much different image quality than those Panas
3. Notice I'm using different instead of better. Because they could've used a 5D and a Canon 1.4 50mm for the project, but it wouldn't look anything like the thing they shot here.
And to comment on the project: poor Scott Johnson, shooting 1ers at 1.4!!
Nolan November 28, 2013
5D doesn't have the latitude I meant to say
Scott Johnson November 28, 2013
Thanks for the sympathy. We shot about 80% of the video at a t1.4, against my recommendation for obvious reasons. For daytime exteriors we were often stacking an IRND 2.1 and an ND 1.2 to achieve that stop. The biggest obstacle was the fact that we were walking backwards through non-locked off streets and side walks. I ran into many a telephone pole and street sign, and on several occasions had to crawl under John to stay out of the picture. It was a lot of fun to work on, and I think the 4 minute edited version looks great.
Alois November 29, 2013
Hi Scott!
Iam a Focus Puller too, and I appreciate your work here. 50mm t1.4 is challenging. Sometimes you just dont have a chance when hes really close to the camera. But nice work indeed.
che December 2, 2013
Yeah! Also a focus puller, here. Giving you props, cuz you most certainly deserve them. They had so many stops to give you, too, but they had to stack those NDs… you're a trooper, Sir.
Jason Wisch November 28, 2013
I was lucky enough to be a part of this as the location manager. It was a rough one. Not sure how Jon did it. We did 12-15 hour days. There was a crew of 15-20 people with us at all times. Sometimes when we where shooting, we would have to make a u-turn to head back the other way. So all of a sudden, this mob of people would have to stand behind the camera, and do a 180 in sync. It was madness. There would also be times when we had to make a quick decision on which way to go. We would scout ahead and find out that the street was blocked, so at the last second, we changed the route. We also had fun with the talent. We would find someone walking down the street, and invite them to be a part of the video. It turned out amazing.
Chris St.Croix November 29, 2013
I thought it was beautiful and my first two sympathetic thoughts were for the locations manager and the cam ops/ACs. But I also don't get why they needed 20-30 people standing behind the camera on this kind of shoot. You might need them all for something and the clients/label etc wanting to watch issue is always a factor but giving the crew one more obstacle like that seems crazy. Oh, and the song is catchy as hell, but after 10 days straight of playback. Oy.
Well done.
SeanCC January 1, 2014
How did permits work if nothing was blocked off and you were having to make in-the-moment decisions about where to go? I mean, I know there was no way this was guerilla but how did this work, knowing LA is not an easy town to shoot in (for an indie) if you have just one, very specific, location to shoot in? LAPD will stop to investigate even a couple people using a small camera if it's visible from the street.
Ethan Vincent November 28, 2013
I'm not smarter than you… just much much older.
jimi November 30, 2013
alexa AND panasonic anamorphic?
no wonder i loved the look.
I want to shoot everything with that combo (since film is not really a choice for me, budget-wise)
Mickey Bill November 30, 2013
It's a catchy tune and a 24 hr / 12 day shoot is huge effort to be sure. The video has a certain look to it but it's just too darn soft, almost all of it is out of focus…I am not an insider so using an anamorphic lens from the 70s doesn't really mean much to me.
Am I missing something here…or is HCB right in saying "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept"
Jaime Lopez January 7, 2014
Awesome music video…i love all dancers making his 4 minutes of fame. They did really well. It makes me happy…clap along to all involved.
Sahan February 11, 2014

The New Mexico Children's Youth and Families Department is the target of a new lawsuit filed by the family of a former Tierra Blanca Ranch teen.
The lawsuit filed by Cheryl Morgan on behalf of her grandson Ryan Morgan claims CYFD had ongoing knowledge and notice of abuse, neglect, and wrongful conduct at the ranch since 2006, but continued to allow the ranch to operate and failed to prosecute accused abusers.
CYFD leaders have said in the past that New Mexico laws don't allow the agency to regulate TBR, but the suit states CYFD has a responsibility to protect all children.
The lawsuit also targets ranch owner Scott Chandler accusing him of deceptive business practices. The suit states Chandler promised to rehabilitate Ryan Morgan, but instead he allowed his staff to beat him, lock him in tents during freezing weather, and used him as free labor. Additionally, Chandler never provided Ryan Morgan with a therapist, counselor or any other professional to help with his behavioral needs.

Robert Breer (at Simon Preston Gallery)
Incredible Vintage Animated Gifs
Nearly 155 years before the first animated gif appeared in 1887, Belgian physicist Joseph Plateau unveiled an invention called the phenakistoscope, a device that is largely considered to be the first mechanism for true animation. The simple gadget relied on the persistence of the vision principle to create the illusion of images in motion.
The phenakistoscope used a spinning disc attached vertically to a handle. Arrayed around the disc's center were a series of drawings showing phases of the animation, and cut through it were a series of equally spaced radial slits. The user would spin the disc and look through the moving slits at the disc's reflection in a mirror. The scanning of the slits across the reflected images kept them from simply blurring together, so that the user would see a rapid succession of images that appeared to be a single moving picture.
Though Plateau is credited with inventing the device, there were numerous other mathematicians and physicists who were working on similar ideas around the same time, and they too were building on the works of Greek mathematician Euclid and Sir Isaac Newton who had also identified the principles behind the phenakistoscope.

text: On Sunday I met The Krupski Family at Horton's Point Lighthouse for a Family Session. They will soon be headed out to their new home in Colorado in early September. I've always enjoyed photographing them and am happy to know they will be back to visit. This was an especially nice session for me as "Dad" was stationed overseas when the youngest, Bradley, was born. He recently returned in late July to not only his Wife and oldest son but to this beautiful baby boy as well. This gave me the opportunity to photograph them as a family and it made me smile ear to ear seeing them all interact together. Including Mom and Dad! I always feel so lucky to photograph the lives of other people and give them a gift they can have for years to come. Here are some of my favorites to share:

They quickly took care of their need for a center fielder by passing on the possibility of landing top free agent Carlos Beltran, opting instead for 39-year-old Steve Finley, who will provide Gold Glove defense, offensive pop and the ability to fit into the Angels' situational attack from anywhere in the top five spots in the lineup.
General manager Bill Stoneman spent a good portion of the remaining three days smiling about what he said were likely signings of a starting pitcher and a reliever. He also said that the Angels might have a few more moves up their sleeves, although nothing official got done during the meetings other than the Finley deal.
Deals done: Signed Finley to a two-year, $13 million contract with an option for a third year at $7 million and a $1 million buyout.
Rule 5 activity: Lost RHP Phil Wilson from Single-A Rancho Cucamonga to the Montgomery Biscuits (Tampa Bay Devil Rays) in the Double-A phase. The Angels received $4,000 as compensation.
Goals accomplished: The Angels made a major move toward completing their 2005 roster and creating payroll flexibility for upcoming moves by signing Finley, who will move into center field, allow Garret Anderson to return to his more comfortable position of left field, and allow Chone Figgins to shift seamlessly to second base while Adam Kennedy recovers from knee surgery.
Finley's relatively modest salary also gives the Angels room to improve the rest of the club, which was weakened by the departure of free agent third baseman Troy Glaus and closer Troy Percival. The Angels went into the meetings looking for help in starting pitching, the bullpen and possibly the infield.
Unfinished business: The Angels remain the favorites to land starter Matt Clement, although at least five teams are still talking to Clement's agent, Barry Axelrod. But Stoneman has said for the last three days that he's confident he'll sign a particular starter and all published reports indicate that starter is Clement.
Elsewhere, the Angels are close to signing right-handed reliever Esteban Yan to a two-year, $3 million contract and are believed to be in the mix for left-handed relievers Ron Villone and Steve Kline. They're also possibly discussing a trade for Milwaukee Brewers utilityman Keith Ginter.
GM's bottom line: "We're very confident that we're going to get guys we like," Stoneman said. "We still feel good in terms of getting some things done."

Denim Is Wall-to-Wallas 16,000 Roam at Grateful Dead Concert

I., on Monday-the final of three evening concerts featuring the Grateful Dead, one of the longest surviving and better groups to emerge from the great San Francisco rock-groupquake of the mid-1960's.

Three Cheese Chicken
Need dinner inspiration? How about this meal...ready in minutes and a true crowd pleaser.
Three Cheese Chicken
A complete meal in 10 minutes. Pasta in a three-cheese sauce with broccoli, grilled seasoned white chicken, corn and carrots. Taste the difference! It's cheesier!Login or register to add
items to your shopping list!
What's happening in your kitchen?
- Very upsetting. I use to LOVE this but there is NO cheese anymore. So sad
- The last few packages of Three Chees chicken have lacked flavor and seem to have less cheese flavoring. Have the ingredients been changed? Very disappointing. UPC # 14500 00713.
- I buy this all the time. Delicious!
~ Dawn
-Ms. Dawn Elaine
- I got the three cheese chicken and I don't know if I was missing a sauce packet but there didn't seem to be any cheese in it. I had to add some cheddar cheese after they complained that had no cheese.
- I agree with the other assessments of the Three Cheese Chicken! No flavor, no cheese taste no moisture. Bland and dry. What happened??? Not your usual tasty dinner. I will not buy that flavor again. Best by Jan. 10, 2016 exp date. 22:57 30 V1 P-20606.
- Love this flavor!!!
- Here is the lot number off the package I fixed tonight. Best by Mar-27-16 07:46 M3 P-20606
- The three cheese chicken is my favorite! I did however, discover, there was no cheese in the bag. I don't know what happened, but the cheese sauce is a key component to make this totally awesome. What do we need to do?
- I purchased Birds Eye Voila Three Cheese Chicken – 21 oz bag - from our local Kroger store. My family has always enjoyed the Birds Eye Voila meals, and I serve them to my family approximately every 10 days.
I prepared the Birds Eye Voila Three Cheese Chicken, and found it contained no cheese whatsoever. My family complained about the taste, and we all agreed it contained no cheese and did not have the same good flavor we have come to expect. We ended up using shredded cheddar cheese to make the meal edible, but because it had no cheese from the manufacturer, even with shredded cheese added, it did not taste as good as it should have. I called your toll-free number Friday to report what happened. The person who helped me was friendly and said she would send a coupon for a replacement dinner, however I was not entirely satisfied with the conversation. She said the product is enrobed in cheese and does not come with chunks or cakes of cheese. In the past, the 21 oz bag has come with one large chunk of cheese and the family size has come with two large chunks of cheese. I feel there is no way the product I bought contained any cheese. To make matters worse, this is the second time in about 6 weeks that this has happened. The taste of the product is affected by not containing cheese.
The package contained the following information: best by MAR-12-16 14:47 30 M3 P-20606.

- I used to love this Voila meal and ate it all the time! The last few times I've bought it, though, it's been bad. NO CHEESE!! There's no flavor to it any more. I can see from other comments that other people are getting the same thing so I know it's not me. Please fix this problem so I can go back to loving this meal!!!
- I bought and cooked the Three Cheese Chicken meal and was VERY DISAPPOINTED! Where is the cheese?!?! I cooked the meal exactly as directed and it was so dry I had to add my own cheese to it. I will not buy anymore of the Birdseye meals again if they are all the same.
- What are you people doing in the factory? eating the cheese that goes into the 3 cheese chicken? i had the same problem as the other complainants. no cheese in this bag in any form! what are you going to do with these unsatisfied customers? I am not inclined to purchase any birds eye products again, ever! if the ingredients you profess were included and are not, i am not interested.
-Jamie Keeker
- Just want to express my disappointment in the three cheese chicken meal. This was my first---and last---time buying this flavor and I was really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, there was absolutely no cheese sauce or even cheese flavoring and the vegetables and chicken were dry and flavorless. The lack of flavor is not what I have grown to expect from the Voila! dinners, so I certainly will not buy the 3-cheese again!
- Had the same thing just happen to me. I just thought it had to be a one off mistake, but now I see it was a larger mistake on their part. I am sure it was not intentional, but there should be better quality control steps to ensure this doesn't happen again. I will wait a couple of months before I try this again to see if quality control issues have been resolved. Does that make this less calories per cup?
- I could not believe it! Last evening I was running late so grabbed the Three Cheese Chicken Voila
out of the freezer and noticed something was wrong. I heated the meal thinking maybe they had changed something ... but NO! No cheese at all. So it should not be called Three Cheese it should be called dry Chicken and Vegetables. So no more Voila Meals for me. We should get our money back! I am on a limited budget and do not appreciate not having what I paid for. Shame on you Birds Eye. Once again, big company taking advantage of not only the poor but all of us!
- There was no cheese sauce. Not good that way!! We like it when ALL THE INGREDIENTS are included!! Best By Jan-09-16 15:31 30 K 1 P-20606
- 04/02/2014 - Same problem. No cheese at all in my THREE CHEESE Chicken Voila. April Fools Day was yesterday people, and this was NOT a funny joke AT ALL.
- I have had the same problem with the cheese with the last TWO bags I have bought. They were the regular size bags, too. I have loved this meal for years, but this is VERY disappointing. I'm not sure why the recipe has changed, but if it doesn't go back to the way it was (with cheese), I will no longer be buying this product, or any other Birds Eye products.
- I tried these as recommended by my tasteful Mother in Law and absolutely loved them. The Three Cheese Chicken has been my favorite since day one, however, the last bag I just bought was a huge disappointment mainly because I paid a little more than I was used too and the fact there was no frozen cheese sauce. Blah totally dry and boring. Very disappointed, I know everyone is trying to make cut backs and everything is getting more expensive, but this......I could've bought all the ingredients (including cheese) at a fraction of the price and had absolute freshness. I hope this was a fluke because if I try another bag and it's like the one I just experienced I will be done with the Birds Eye line. FYI Birds Eye the batch this was from is: Best By JAN-10-16 21:44 30 M3 P-20606
I suggest you either recall it or refund some patrons.
- I made this last night and sprinkled my own three cheese mix in with the pasta. It was AWESOME!
- I bought the Three Cheese Chicken and there was no cheese in it.It was so dry I could not eat it.Not so sure I can trust Birdseye to buy more of your products.Was very disappointing.From comments I have read I'm not the only one with this problem.Sounds to me like a Quality control issue.I am now trying the Stouffers dinners.Thank you.
- This was our favorite voila meal. Tasted like chicken pot pie. No cheese in it at all. Would like my money back. We have another one in the freezer which we bought at the same time. Haven't opened it yet. Please send me a coupon for it. Bought it at bigy in storrs ct. Tu. Betty
- We bought three chees chicken at big y in storrs ct. And there was no. Cheese in it at all. We have another one in the freezer and we don't know if there will be cheese in it or not. Very disappointed
- Well its February 2014 and NO CHEESE. Best by date is Jan-09-16 16:53 30 K1 P-20606 so looking through the other comments looks like it was more then just 1 batch...
- Yes I agree with the NO CHEESE SAUCE. It was an easy fix and it was no trouble. Just add some cheese after it's done. I add different types of cheese
just depending on what kind was in my frig. It has come out great tasting every time.
- Yeah I have to agree with everyone here. Where is the cheese??? I'm so mad because I have another bag in the freezer and I have a feeling that one is going to be bad too. And also there was a ton of broccoli in mine and little pasta. All together terrible. This use to be my favorite. Very disappointing.
- Love the three cheese and chicken. My favorite one however same as others are saying last two bags of it absolutely NO CHEESE SAUCE very disappointed
- Just prepared this for the family, as we have in the past, but tonight it did not have the cheese sauce. It was from "best by Nov-16-15 07:24 30 K2 P-20606. Hopefully this will not happen again, it is just not the same without cheese!
- This used to be my favorite product. I'd buy it all the time, but I think y'all have changed the recipe. There is literally no cheese on the noodles and the chicken is garbage. It is so fatty I have to pick the chicken out and whats the point. The quality of this product has went down so much! Why call it 3 cheese if there is NONE. I could eat plain noodles and frozen vegetables if that is what I wanted. I am totally disappointed and will not buy this again!
- This is my favorite VIola flavor. The cheese is there just like a cheese sause. The chicken taste great. There are a lot of other veggies. I eat it at least twice a week.
- very upset with the package of Three Cheese Chicken Voila! It didn't have cheese in it.. and it is not the same without the cheese. seriously so sad right now since I have been eating this atleast 4-6 times a month for the last 8 years!!
- had three cheese chicken first time it was not as good.could not taste cheese more corn then anything very little chicken only about 5 small pieces of broccoli and few carrots have it 2or3 times a month
- Very dry and tough..barely any cheese flavor. Very disappointing :(
- If there is supposed to be a packet containing the cheese sauce, I didn't get one. Just wanted to let you guys know. I just added spaghetti sauce and it turned out great!
- Please add more chicken and creamier cheese sauce! :) still yummy !
- I Love This But Not With The Carrots And Broccoli In It
- Made the three Cheese Chicken, there was no cheese in it.
- Yeah tried the Three Cheese Chicken tonight it was also dry and had very little cheese. The times before using different ones always were much better. Maybe just a bad batch?
- Courtney stole Jen's post. But I agree...Yum!!! :)
- Liked this but why three cheeses? Seems like overcompensating? Right guys?

About semi-colon usage in Xml files
Hello. Some special characters e.g. <,> and & cant be used in xml file. When used they throw an error. But semi-colon usage doesnt provide an error like ampersand does, although semicolon is a special character in entities. Why using semicolon in xml files is safe?
Thanks in advance.
Jun 18, 2008, 11:07 #2
A character needs to be escaped only if it tells the XML parser that something "special" follows it. Semicolons appear at the end of a named entity. The ampersand that appears at the start of a named entity is what signals the entity and needs escaping if you want it to be printed literally.

Illicit Agricultural Trade
AbstractAgricultural and wildlife trade is subject to sudden, disruptive import restrictions arising from concerns over sanitary and phytosanitary safety and the conservation of natural resources. These restrictions can create significant international price differences that encourage the smuggling of goods across borders. This article presents an equilibrium model of smuggling where the supply and demand for smuggled goods depend on interregional price disparities in the presence of a trade ban. In this model, smuggling is more prevalent when demand and supply among trade partners is more inelastic or when there are fewer total trade partners at the time a trade ban is enacted. Applications are presented for regionalization, destruction of goods in government eradication programs, price support, stockpiling, and the development of substitutes. Regionalization may increase smuggling under certain production and consumption patterns.

Actress Amy Adams gives first class seat to soldier
Actress Amy Adams is creating quite a buzz this weekend for giving up her first class seat on a plane.
She was at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport on Friday when she saw a soldier in uniform at her gate.
Adams arranged to swap her first-class ticket with the soldier's coach seat.
A journalist who was on the plane took a selfie with Adams in coach and tweeted it.
Adams says she did it because her father was also in the military.

I shouldn't have to worry too much about attacks, apparently, because there are guards. But it's not jail, it's "like a hotel".posted by muddgirl at 12:52 PM on February 11 [1 favorite]
The detention review process is also public, so media or members of the public may attend or report on the proceedings.I have heard there is a protest on Saturday, but the review should be tomorrow or Thursday, and hopefully her friends/supporters can find out the time and show up.
In correctional institutions, the sex segregation of facilities is a concern for transgendered inmates, particularly when the person is pre-operative male to female transsexual. The Ministry of Correctional Services has no written policy to address this type of situation. Pre-operative male to female transsexuals may be subject to solitary confinement not because they are a threat to others but for their own protection. While this is obviously a systemic disadvantage, it is not clear what the alternatives are available in light of some of the safety issues.(Section 4 ii in this report; underline is mine.) Does this differ between the provinces and the feds perhaps? Is this an on-the-fly made up idiocy from the ignoramuses involved in this case?
Jail and prison systems need written policies on transgender and gender non-conforming inmates, to ensure they are housed according to their gender identity, unless their safety is jeopardized by this classification; however, this does not mean transgender and gender non-conforming inmates should be held in solitary confinement or administrative segregation or otherwise have their privileges reduced in a misguided attempt to keep them safe.I don't feel that it is sound policy to say that trans people's safety is always jeopardized by being housed among other similarly-gendered inmates and therefore all trans people go immediately to solitary without passing Go and collecting $200. This is apparently not how it works, but I'd have expected Edison to be held in a relatively non-prisony light security complex along with other people who had committed similarly nonviolent technical immigration violations that are typically resolved quickly. I would not expect to be institutionally misgendered and treated like some confusing enigma while ignorant cis people with authority "debate" what should be done with me.
.@aedison Now this is over, next goal is making sure this can never happen again to any other trans men or women. #FreeAvery #AverysFreeI don't know who this "we" is that is making Avery a symbol of anything. Far be it from me to make that call.
Trying not to do a huge tweet blast, but I want to clear up a couple of assumptions some people have made over the past few days.posted by rtha at 11:10 AM on February 15 [12 favorites]
1) I was not attempting to make an illegal entry into Canada. I had not been ordered to leave previously, and if CBSA found it credible that I would be leaving in three weeks, I would have been allowed in and my visit entirely legal. I was not attempting to enter illegally.
2) There were multiple occasions on which I asked to just be sent home. I was told that would not be possible. Later, this was amended to being possible if I could secure a $2,500 last-minute ticket to London. I have access to money, but not that much money. So, detention.
3) At one point I was offered the opportunity to return home on the next AirTransat flight (Thursday), but, acting on information that I would be staying in an immigration holding centre, not a prison, I decided that it would be best to be detained so that I could visit with my girlfriend and discuss options with someone calmer and smarter than I. Once I refused this opportunity to go home, things took a turn.
4) I was sent to a prison because CBSA considered me a suicide risk. I had not indicated to them any suicidal feelings or plans, and they made this assumption based on my hospitalisation for a suicide attempt 3 years ago. Without the "need" for suicide watch, no prison.
There's so much more to say, but I'm seeing a lot of discussions poisoned by assumptions I just refuted, so I wanted to clear those up.
There's so much more to say, but I'm seeing a lot of discussions poisoned by assumptions I just refuted, so I wanted to clear those up.
Finally, to all the people saying that solitary was for my own good and "not that bad" - please spend 48-72 hours in a windowless room, with nothing but a mattress, sheet, and toilet. There is a reason extended solitary confinement is considered torture. I have had a hellish week.
I know, though, that my experience pales in comparison to so many others, because I have had a lot of privileges. I will be talk about that.
This protest is now, thankfully, unnecessary. It's pivoted to supporting the many other incarcerated trans people. https://www.facebook.com/events/1379541392314482/(Note that she's not the organizer of the protest: it was put together by an organization that works on bunch of issues having to do with gender and sexuality.)
She chose to be detained, probably on bad information, possibly because CBSA explained the bare minimum to her without defining legal terms like "visitation" or "detain" and allowing her to make reasonable assumptions about what they meant. This was probably partially due to the transphobia she encountered and partially because a lot of CBSA staff are assholes to anyone they consider "inferior".Yes! Those are the complaints! Those are the things we're angry about! If you agree that those things could and should have been avoided, then you're totally caught up on the main issue here.
Calling it a male cell and changing her pronoun was inexcusable behaviour that I hope the corrections guards and CBSA officials are disciplined for and educated about.
Some people are inadmissible—they are not allowed to come to Canada. Several things can make you inadmissible, including involvement in criminal activity, in human rights violations or in organized crime.Well, none of those things apply to me - I'm not a criminal, dangerous, sick, or poor. But just for fun, I shall click on that link and find out more about inadmissibility. It gives a lot of potential reasons, none of which apply to me. And there's an additional link that says reasons for inadmissibility. Didn't we just have that? Well, I'll click on it anyway. Wow, that's a wall of text! And again, none of those things apply to me. Wait a minute .... the second last (of sixteen clauses) is "failure to comply with any provision of IRPA (see note 4)". I shall see note 4:
You can also be inadmissible for security, health or financial reasons.
Examples of failure to comply with IRPA include:Well, this hypothetical tourist overstayed her visa once before. Perhaps she was officially deported, perhaps not, but to even be alerted to this risk required that I go through a sequence of five web pages, the last two of which seem designed to reassure readers that they're merely restatements of the one before. And even then, I need to read the footnotes of a rather long list because the her scenario (which is probably pretty common) isn't explicitly mentioned anywhere else.
- temporary residents who do not respect the conditions of their stay—for example, they stay longer than allowed, or work or study without the proper permits
- permanent residents who have not lived in Canada for the required amount of time and
- people who have previously been deported and try to enter Canada without written authorization.
I know that the situation became more complicated through nobody's fault but my own; that the lack of a stable life in England meant it wasn't believable that I'd return there; that my suicidal history took the standard detention centre off the table; that my gender identity muddied things even further. I would apologise, if I knew who to apologise to, or if I thought it would mean anything.Is sort of heartbreaking.

Some assignments can be difficult. Today the difficulty was in walking away without bringing home a new pet. When I first arrived to the Humane Society of Greater Savannah, I wasn't sure what the assignment entailed.

I love a good concert. Especially a free one. The Savannah Ocean Exchange hosted an "International Beach Bash" on Tybee Island featuring a free concert with performances from Trevor Hall and "American Idol" winner Ruben Studdard.

Have you ever felt super motivated and volunteered to do something you weren't even asked to do only later to catch yourself wondering what you were thinking? That's kind of how I felt around 3am, while taking pictures of the lunar eclipse from the North Beach on Tybee Island. When I saw on Monday that there would be a total lunar eclipse, I thought it would be a great idea to go out and take pictures. I got all of my gear and warm clothes ready, went to bed early and set the alarm for just after midnight.

When I'm not taking pictures, one of my favorite things to do is talk about photography. Recently, I have had several opportunities to share my love for photography with others. It started about three weeks ago when Coach Karl DeMasi called me to ask if I would be a guest on his Saturday morning radio show, The Karl DeMasi Sports Report.

It has been a long hot summer in Savannah, and my wife and I really needed a break. Just three months after our wedding, our reception and a honeymoon trip to San Francisco, the bank account was not up for an out-of-town trip. We decided it was a good opportunity to take advantage of the beauty of our local area and have a Tybee "staycation".

For the past several years, I have spent my July 4th taking pictures of the fireworks display along River Street. While I have taken some images that I have been pleased with, I have been looking for a new perspective on the show.
