"He took the knife and cut the steak."
Many words borrowed from Old Norse, but (and more to the point) how much grammar was borrowed?
I only barely am learning to speak Icelandic but I can tell you the grammar is more foreign to me than the alphabet or the words, which are plenty foreign. German grammar feels closer and I never could get German cases right.
In Swedish it would be written: Han tog kniven ('en' suffix instead of 'the') och skarde (cut, past tense) steken.
Granted you probably wouldn't say "the steak"
Norwegian : Han tok kniven og skar opp steken.
Dutch : Hij nam het mes en sneed het varkensgebraad.
German : Er nahm das Messer und schnitt den Schweinebraten.
Differences between Norwegian and English are
1) Norwegian has the definite article -en after the nouns.
2) Norwegian uses a different verb 'skjære' instead of 'to cut'.
3) Norwegian adds the preposition 'opp' to the verb (to cut up).
And also the things mentioned in a post by someone else.
Skar not skarde. Skarde is not a word.
"Han tog kniven och skar steken."
"He took the knife and cut the steak."
So basicly the same.
Icelandic is unique among Germanic languages for it's seeming syntactic complexity. It is a favorite topic for linguistics students.
My apologies, my Swedish is still fairly young. Prepositions are usually what trips me up, but I suppose I'm still missing the occasional verb conjugation too :/. But I would agree that differences are minimal. The only ones I would notice in this example are the Swedish 'en' 'et' suffixes for definite articles, and the lack of a comma after conjunctions '...and,...' vs '...och...', granted in this case and isn't used as a conjunction anyway.
My Swedish relatives tell me off for my spoken Swedish. Apparently I speak as if I am constructing my sentences in English and speaking them in Swedish words. And that is not how it is done.
Swedish Chef : He tooken zee kneef und cutten zee steek
It seems like your Dutch and German examples both refer to pork roast, not a beef steak. The word steak in English generally refers to a single cut of beef sliced from a full muscle, not a large roast of that full muscle. It's also not generally used to refer to pork (which would typically be called a chop). Is there a word in either language that refers to beef specifically? Like the Spanish bifstec or French bifteck?
Good point! In Norway we just say "biff", which I suppose derives from French "boeff"
(related to the English word 'buffalo' and French 'boeff'). In Norway we also speak of
"lammestek" ( usually from a whole upper back leg of a sheep, that is cooked in one
piece with the bone inside). Then we also have "oksestek" (from the 'okse' = bull).
Then there is also "svinestek". These are usually made in an oven and then you use a
thermometer that you insert into the meat, so that it doesn't get too hot. "Biff" on the other
hand is usually made in a frying pan. Oh, and then there is also "dyrestek", usually from reindeer.
"Stek" by itself is also possible, but in my experience it is not used very often, except in
proverbs like "Den som er med på leken, må smake steken" (He who plays must also taste the steak). But I don't know how to translate the word "steak" into German and Dutch. In
restaurants it seems like they just use the English word on their menus. I guess one has to
go via French, because they are the master cooks. My guess was that "gebraad" is the right
translation. But I thought the name of the animal ought to go in front. In German cooking
manuals they speak about "spareribs", for example, because this dish is apparently made
according to English or US recipes. Then there is "Rinderfilet" that looks very much like
a beefsteak. But my guess is that "filet" means that it has already been cut before it is served.
Oh yes, come to think of it : In Holland they also speak about a "bout". For example
"gebraden lamsbout", which would be pretty much like the Norwegian "lammestek" (upper part
of a lambs hind leg). So there you have it : Take your pick, but know that it is complicated
to translate exactly off the top of your head. You know, of course, that the coooking utensils
we use today are rather different from what they used in the Middle Ages. In ancient houses
dating back to the Migration and Viking Ages, what the archaeologists find are the so-called
"cooking stones". They were heated in the open fire that used to burn in the middle of the floor,
and then, glowing hot, thrown into cooking pits, to make the water boil. A "steak" would
have been, I guess, something made over an open fire. But they also had a "cooking stone",
a big flat stone, on which bread and cakes were baked. These were actually still used not
so many generations ago.
guest-ljmamsi this is not entirely correct.
The word "Rinderfilet" refers to the whole American cut called "tenderlion" not to a part of the tenderlion itself which would be called "Rinderfiletsteak" then.
I guess you had a look in the section of steaks or "Kurzgebratenes" in this particular German cooking manual.In this case Germans have the tendency to drop the actual cut e.g. steak and only refer to whole part of the meat which is "Rinderfilet" then.
Complicate? Yes,indeed.
To quote someone whose name i sadly have forgotten:
"German is a language you can learn during a course of an afternoon but to master it you need your entire life."
Okay. But to be honest, I don't really know exactly what
"tenderloin" is, all I know is that it sounds very tasty,
and I am sure I've eaten it in restaurants too. It is only
that when you eat in good restaurants, you tend to trust that
the waiter serves you food made by an expert cook, who knows
what he is doing! But as I wrote, I think the discussion should
go via French, which is the international language of cooking.
Except when you speak about traditional courses, that are tied
to a particular country or region. German "Sauerkraut" is not exactly
like Norwegian "surkål". Dutch "hutspot" is not exactly
like Norwegian "lapskaus". Variation is the key word here.
My favorite meat dish used to be "tournedos" with champignons!
I suspect that food made in Austria, is not exactly like food
made in Düsseldorf either. My dictionary says that German "Lendenbraten"
is the same as Austrian "Lungenbraten" < Lat. lumbus.
And I guess I was wrong about the definition of the French word "filet". I thought of a "thread", which is correct,
but applied to meat it actually means a particular muscle.
Tenderloin and filet are both the same thing it´s just the point if it´s cut and served as
a steak or kept as a whole and served as a roast.
Te be honest you should´t do that to a filet/tenderloin,IMO a sacrilege, beside as Beef Wellington.
But let´s go back to topic.
if you´ve a look at the sentence from MemphisBob and translate it into french you´ll get the following "il prit le couteau et couper le bifteck".
The origin of bifteck is beefsteak and now comes the fun part.The origin of beef is the french word boeuf thus in conclusion the two languages borrowed words from each other.
Which is the common factor in the evolution of the European languages.
That is true. Another example of such iterated borrowings, that
we learned about back in my schooldays, is the Dutch word
"bolwerk", that the French borrowed and began to write as
"boulevard". Then the Dutch borrowed it back some centuries
later as "boulevard", which now means a broad street with trees
and shops. Originally it meant a thick steep stone wall that was
part of a fortification.
My German dictionary has indeed listed "steak" as a German word,
that means "Fleischschnitte" (gegrillt oder kurz gebraten).
It is odd that the Germans did not have their own short term,
for something as basic as that. "Heute essen wir Schnitzel".

About Dae-Ki
Comments & conversations
Very interesting ideas! Since he seemed to be humble, he may not have effectively impressed some people. However, his ideas surely can give potential impacts to the current or near future smart device technology.
"If we take a man as he should be, we make him capable of becoming what he can be." Yeah, Sure, I agree with him. I thought about this when I was young. I am glad that he reminded me of what I have forgot.
Great talk.

In Samuel Warren Dike's biography of Capt. Anthony Dike, it mentioned that a John Dike and his father, Thomas Dike, (both in England) had business dealings with the colonies in the West Indies - this would have been around 1637. It also mentioned that John Dike had four brothers - Robert, Thomas, William and Richard. The article went on to say that the relationship between Anthony Dike and this John Dike was unknown.
Also, according to the Virginia Historical Magazine, The New Government for Virginia, 1624, Pages 38-40: On July 15, 1624, in Westminster, England, a Commission was established by King James to take in consideration a new form of government for Virginia. A member of that Commission was John Dike. This could be the same John Dike as mentioned above, or maybe related(??).
If anyone has any information on John Dike and/or his family, I would appreciate hearing from you.

This paper evaluates a novel k-nearest neighbour (k-NN) classifier built from binary neural networks. The binary neural approach uses robust encoding to map standard ordinal, categorical and numeric data sets onto a binary neural network. The binary neural network uses high speed pattern matching to recall a candidate set of matching records, which are then processed by a conventional k-NN approach to determine the k-best matches. We compare various configurations of the binary approach to a conventional approach for memory overheads, training speed, retrieval speed and retrieval accuracy. We demonstrate the superior performance with respect to speed and memory requirements of the binary approach compared to the standard approach and we pinpoint the optimal configurations.

Jordanne Scott Earns National Honor
Jan. 3, 2013
CINCINNATI – University of Cincinnati senior outside hitter Jordanne Scott (Lawrence North) has been named to COBRA Magazine's All-National first team.
It marks the second consecutive year the senior has been selected for All-National first team after garnering second team accolades in both 2009 and 2010.
Scott, a unanimous All-BIG EAST first team selection, led the team and ranked second in the conference with 517 kills and a 4.41 kills/set average. She finished second on the team with 228 digs and fourth with 65 blocks. Scott recorded eight double-doubles on the year, including four straight between Nov. 4 and Nov. 16. She hit a career-high 30 kills in the first round of the BIG EAST Championship, ranking second in the conference tournament record book.
She was named the BIG EAST Player of the Week on Oct. 15 and was a two-time BIG EAST honor roll recipient.
COBRA is a magazine that features African American, Samoan, Tongan and Afro-Caribbean volleyball players in hopes of inspiring younger players from those ethnic groups to play volleyball and become successful women on and off the court.
A total of 16 players were named to the All-National first team, including two from the BIG EAST.

Saint-Jean-de-Luz, town, Pyrénées-Atlantiques département, Aquitaine région, southern France, on the Bay of Biscay. It lies on the right bank of the Nivelle River, near the Spanish frontier.
The town's restored 13th-century Church of St. John the Baptist, in which Louis XIV was married to Marie-Thérèse of Austria in 1660, has a single nave in Basque style surrounded by galleries. With its numerous hotels, casinos, promenades, and beaches, the town is a fashionable summer and winter resort. It also has a picturesque fishing port with an ancient maritime tradition. Its vessels were the first (1520) to fish off Newfoundland. The tuna fishing industry remains significant. Pop. (1999) 13,247; (2005 est.) 13,300.

I had a new roof put over a side entrance. I was hoping a side benefit would be that I'd no longer have water dripping over the doorway outside. The leaking is from behind the gutters: The rainwater finds a way from the shingles (which overhang about 3/4 of the way over the gutter) to the fascia and then behind the gutter. I've tried to fix the leaks myself (tightening the gutter close to the fascia, etc.) but I'm frustrated. The roofer is no longer in business.

- Leaky Gutter
Hello. The problem seems to be that there is no drip edge under your roofing. If there is a drip edge there, then you possibly need a strip of aluminum called a drip edge extender which does what its name suggests: it extends the drip edge. Sometimes when a gutter is installed and pitched towards the downspout, it reveals the fascia. Typically, drip edge extenders are only required in situations where the roof overhang is too short and the rain is hitting the fascia. Have a gutter professional come out and look at the situation or check to make sure you have a drip edge. If you don't, have a roofer install one for you.

Jeers. Mickey and Jake are the only ones there, and Jake is delivering yet another diatribe about Mickey's lack of manliness. Desperate to earn even a speck of grudging respect from me, Mike Binder resorts to hockey metaphors: "This is all okay when we're having target practice," he says in reference to his fantasies about Missy, "but we pulled the goalie. Any one of these slapshots could be my next kid. I'm thinking about Missy way too much. If Donna gets pregnant, Missy'll have some sort of psychic, emotional, chromosome link. She'll be like the uber-mother or something." On behalf of Fametracker, Hissyfit, Sugar Larry, and the entire Uber family of websites, shut up, Mickey. Also, unless Donna uses a diaphragm, that's a pretty crappy metaphor. Jake advises Mickey to look for love inside his marriage, and look for sex outside. Then, in a sentence which also includes the phrases "knockin' boots" and "all you need is someone to snap the end of your dick and send you home calm," Jake offers to take Mickey to see Seshiko, his "little Asian piece of heaven."
Cut to Doug, reading to his sleeping child. He picks the little girl up, walks us through some physical comedy when he bangs her head against the doorjamb, and then deposits her in her bedroom. Moving to the master suite, he finds Karin decked out in a silk nightie to celebrate their "half-anniversary." "Is it our half?" asks Doug. "Aww. I forgot." There's some kissing and giggling, and also a shot of Karin bossing her boy around. Who can guess what comes next, by the way? Anyone? Yep, that's right. Doug notices that the nightie is new, and flips out about the expenses. Karin stomps off to the bathroom, which allows The Hyper-Kinetic Editor Who Has Now Moved On To Jolt Cola And Crystal Meth to show us the door slamming about seventeen times. She eventually emerges in a paint-splattered sweatshirt, and is afforded the opportunity to utter the memorable line, "Come on, Doug. Let's get fuckin'! I got playground duty at the school tomorrow, and I gotta be up early. Let's roll." Doug wilts under the intense pressure of her sarcasm, and suggests that she put the nightie back on, even after he learns that it cost $250. He also seems to be calling her Carol instead of Karin, but not even I really care enough to go check the definitive listing on HBO's website. You know, if I had even the tiniest bit of respect for Mike Binder's abilities as a writer (and please be assured that I don't), I might suggest that he was attempting here to make a relatively subtle joke: that women are pliable after sex, whereas men are more pliable beforehand. It's an old joke that's already been done to death, I know, but at least he didn't feel the need to smack us in the face with it. You know, like the way he'll be doing it in just a few scenes.
Even though I've just said that I don't really care about Karin's name, I will point out that I've just discovered this week that the paper Mickey works for is called The Daily Mirror. Wow. Is there anything about this show that isn't narcissistic? Anyway, Eileen sits at her desk (which, thankfully, does not have a goldfish bowl on it) and observes as Jake welcomes his episode one "computer consultant" into his office. After she seductively closes the blinds, and The Hyper-Kinetic Editor Who's Not Even Editing Anymore, But Is Instead Just Twitching Wildly And Randomly Hitting Buttons shows us four billion shots of Eileen pouting, we cut to later at the elevator. Heh. I didn't even mean for that one to rhyme. Eileen approaches the Computer Conslutant and tries to make small talk, but ends up just humiliating herself. While I enjoy watching attractive women insult each other just as much as the next guy, there's really nothing else here worth mentioning.

Mirvarid Dilbazi
Mirvarid Dilbazi (Azerbaijani: Mirvarid Paşa qızı Dilbazi), (19 August 1912, Gazakh, Azerbaijan – 12 July 2001, Baku) was an Azerbaijani poet.
She was born in the village of Musakoy (former Khanliglar) located in the Gazakh, Azerbaijan. Both of her grandfathers, Haji Rahim and Abdurahman Dilbazi, were poets. In 1921, Mirvarid moved to Baku and got admitted to the newly established Female Boarding School. After six years of studying, Mirvarid started teaching at elementary school in Bilajari. Upon graduation from Azerbaijan Pedagogical Institute, she moved to Guba and continued teaching there.[1]
Mirvarid Dilbazi's first poem, Women's Emancipation, was published in 1927. Her first book, Our Voice, followed in 1934. After that, she wrote numerous poems and children's books such as First Spring (1937), Love for Motherland (1942), Memories (1945), Dream of the Master (1948), Images of life (1967), Algerian Girl (1961), To my younger fellows (1956), Spring is coming (1968), etc.[2] Dilbazi has also translated works by writers such as Pushkin, Khagani and Nizami. In 1979, she was named "People's Poet of Azerbaijan". President Heydar Aliyev awarded her with the Istiglal Order (Order of Sovereignty) in 1998.[3] During her long lifetime, Mirvarid witnessed Stalin's Repressions of 1937, the tragic losses of World War II, and the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict.
Mirvarid's cousin, Amina Dilbazi, was a well-known Azeri ballet-master and folk-music dancer.

This is the first episode of a series that I didn't feel like submitting in its entirety. The rest is on my website that you'll have to root through my pointless profile to get to. I'll be submitting the sixth, eleventh and twelfth episodes a little later on. Sit back, relax and enjoy the flight.
Also, I'm not bothering to credit the music the NewGrounds way, because I have credits and did not get the music from the audio portal, and since I used more than one piece of music not from the audio portal, I can't properly credit it the NewGrounds way anyway.
A very nice performance. Its not too bad at all....meow.
Thanks for the review and uh... cat noise.
Twas simply marvelous! :D
'Twas a hilarious crap fest
I liked it but it was a little...long and not very awsome.
"Not very awsome"? Okay...
the sound of the voices were ok, abit sharp at some points. Overall really good flash, quite funny =P
Yeah, the audio gets much better in later episodes.

She's Like Texas Lyrics - Josh Abbott Band
[Verse 1]
She's as free as blue bonnets in the summer.
She's as hot as the Padre Island sun.
Most of the time she's warm and friendly
like the hills that surround Austin.
She's as bright as the Dallas sky.
She always holds her head up high.
She loves the company of her family.
She believes in God's greater plan.
She trusts that I'm a good man.
That's why I'll always believe
that she's like Texas, and she likes me.
[Verse 2]
Her eyes are green as the trees in Nacogdoches.
sponsored linksHer teeth are white as cotton in the fall.
And when she laughs you'll always take notice
because her heart's charm shines right through it all.
Her moods can change like the weather out in Lubbock.
But if you show her love, man she'll return it.

Billabong wipes out credibilityPUBLISHED: 22 Jun 2012 00:07:08 | UPDATED: 25 Jun 2012 00:12:00PUBLISHED: 21 Jun 2012 PRINT EDITION: 22 Jun 2012
Tony Boyd
Awelcome return to the equitable treatment of shareholders in equity capital markets has been killed dead by Billabong International, with its $225 million non-renounceable share issue that smells of desperation and panic.
Chairman Ted Kunkel will bear the brunt of shareholder anger for this transaction, which looks suspiciously like it has been designed to suit the institutional sub-underwriters at the expense of retail shareholders.
Billabong needs the money to rebuild its balance sheet just four months after it raised $US285 million from the sale of half of accessories company Nixon.
Billabong is in complete disarray. It lost its chief executive, Derek O'Neill, in May, Kunkel is leaving after the next annual meeting and the head of the audit committee, Allan McDonald, is also headed for the exit in October. On top of that, new chief executive Launa Inman needs more time to get her mind around the extent of the company's deep-seated problems, the most glaring of which is lack of timely financial information about its operations.
Inman can't give a proper explanation of her strategy for the company until August so investors in the share issue have to take a leap of faith that she can get her arms around the problems and figure out a response.
Despite all that negativity, one wonders what possessed the board of Billabong to agree to do a share issue at a 44 per cent discount to the previous close and a 30 per cent discount to the theoretical ex-rights price and not give all shareholders an opportunity to get some proceeds.
A renounceable issue would have allowed those shareholders who did not take up their entitlement to the 6-for-7 rights issue to sell their entitlements. Under a renounceable issue any entitlements not taken up are auctioned. Sub-underwriters do not like renounceable issues because they cannot be assured they will get the stock at the issue price. They like nonrenounceable issues, especially heavily discounted ones, because they can be assured of picking up unwanted stock.
Billabong founder Gordon Merchant is taking up only 85 per cent of his rights, which will cost him about $30 million. So it was known from the start that stock would be flowing to the underwriters. Another aspect of this share issue that is confusing is the presence of short sellers who, according Bloomberg, speak for about 25 million shares, or about 10 per cent of the issued capital.
Unless the company is expected to go bust, short sellers will be buyers of the stock to cover their positions. That would have played into the hands of a renounceable deal because it would have added tension to the auction for the entitlements.
As it is, the likely outcome is lots of cheap stock flowing to the institutional sub-underwriters close to the underwriters, Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank.
Kunkel, who already has shareholders calling for his head, will probably be glad to be free of a board that was bordering on dysfunctional. Merchant was not happy with the way the company was being run and in the past six months intervened heavily.
Dulux chief executive Patrick Houlihan is treading a fine line between getting a takeover done and harming perceptions of the entire building industry.
He may well be putting enough doubt in the minds of his own shareholders to convince them to sell out of the sector rather than persuade the shareholders of his target company, Alesco, to accept a $2-a-share takeover offer. He is pushing the line that the housing industry is in a hole and it is impossible to predict when it will rebound. In other words, shareholders should take the money and run.
However, the same arguments could be applied to Dulux notwithstanding the fact that paint seems to be able to roll through the cycles without big troughs and peaks.
Either way, retail shareholders in Alesco, which supplies branded products to the building industry including B&D roller-doors, are following the recommendation of their board and rejecting the offer.
That is the smart thing to do. Dulux says it will be disciplined and will walk away if necessary. But Houlihan is in danger of being stuck with $40 million of Alesco shares acquired when the battle started. Does he really want control of this company? Does he realise retail shareholders do look to their boards for guidance?
It would seem logical for Houlihan to lift the $188 million bid by offering shareholders a dividend paid out of Alesco while utilising its franking credits. A fully franked dividend of 20¢ could be worth 25¢ after tax to some investors.
It is obvious from polling of Alesco's retail shareholders, who hold half the issued capital, that Dulux will remain independent until the board recommendation changes, even if that means facing the prospect of being locked in a stock that falls to $1.40 if Houlihan walks away.
Chanticleer is not sure whether to laugh or cry at the innovative financial solution being dreamed up by the Victorian government to pay for the explosion in the unfunded pension liability of the state's municipal council workers.
The government is considering a special-purpose bond issue to cover a liability that looks like blowing out well beyond the figure of $400 million flagged about a month ago by Manningham City councillor Stephen Mayne.
There is talk in Melbourne superannuation circles that the deficit is more than $500 million.
Vision Super chairman Rob Spence says the deficit is a "big number" but he won't reveal the figure until the actuarial review, dated December 2011, is completed in the next few weeks.
It would appear that the previous actuarial assumptions were well out of whack with what has been happening in the fund. The fund assumed a net investment return of 8.5 per cent, salary inflation of 4.25 per cent and price inflation of 2.75 per cent.
Tough investment markets and big salary increases, thanks to a strong union, mean the numbers have all moved the wrong way for a fund that has a high proportion of pensioners who are living longer. The fund was closed in 2003 and is in run-off.
Councils will be able to issue bonds under the umbrella of the state government credit rating. Ratepayers get lumbered with more debt to pay a liability not of their making. Council rates will have to rise.
The deficit will draw attention to the fact that Vision Super recently chalked up its third failed attempt to conduct a merger with another industry fund.
Its board could not agree a merger with the board of Equipsuper, thereby denying members lower administration charges and investment management fees, both of which would have helped save millions.

Lord David Puttnam reveals the secrets of the trade
10/30/2012 21:48
Oscar-winning film producer speaks to the 'Post' about 30 years of making movies.
David Puttnam

Chariots of Fire
, which he produced and which won a Best Picture Oscar. He was speaking at a Master Class at the Sam Spiegel School of Film & Television, Jerusalem, where he is conducting a series of workshops on producing to mark the beginning of the academic year. The week of festivities will culminate in an event called "Close-Up," in which a group of Israeli artists and other professionals will speak on their favorite movie close-up and what it meant to them. The "Close-Up" event will take place on Thursday, November 1 at the Jerusalem Cinematheque, beginning at 10 a.m.
Puttnam, an extraordinarily affable and entertaining speaker, is enjoying a thriving second career as a lecturer on how to make a living in the movie business while keeping your spirit and integrity alive. He is certainly an authority on this subject, having made several reality-based dramatic films that garnered extraordinary critical acclaim and popular success, among them
Midnight Express
(about an American imprisoned for drug smuggling in Turkey) and
The Killing Fields
(the story of chaos and death in Cambodia during and just after the Vietnam War), as well as
. Puttnam was knighted by Queen Elizabeth in 1995 But it's
, with its iconic slow-motion races and Vangelis score, for which Puttnam is best known.
The story of two British runners in the 1924 Olympics, one a Jew determined to prove himself to the anti-Semitic establishment and the other a devout Christian who refuses to compete on Sundays (a principle that was perhaps better understood in Israel than anywhere else), on paper it sounds like a nice Masterpiece Theater drama, but Puttnam and his director, Hugh Hudson, turned it into the mustsee blockbuster of that year.
Describing how he has seen audiences in China moved to tears by the film, Puttnam says he feels that the imagery and ideals of
create "something weird and spiritual" that connects with viewers around the world.
"In the end, making movies is about creating magic," he says, while admitting that he drew inspiration from many sources, including a Japanese documentary about the 1964 Olympics in which runners were filmed in slow-motion.
But even 30 years ago when money wasn't as tight,
Chariots of Fire
was not an easy sell. Although Puttnam had a producing deal at Warner Brothers in the late Seventies, he recalls an executive tossing what the man called "the red script," the original working script for
, into the trash.
When the film won the Oscar (it was made for a different studio), Puttnam remembers walking up to the podium, "slightly overwhelmed" and noticing the executive applauding. "It wasn't a surge of joy I was feeling, it was more revenge," he admits.
"I'd got my own back... I was not entirely comfortable with what I had won." But when
The Killing Fields
was nominated for the same award a few years later, he was more comfortable and better able to savor his success. "I knew
The Killing Fields
wasn't going to win, even though it was better than
[which was the winner that year]. But it didn't matter. That air-punching moment when you win is fleeting and not really worthwhile. What's worthwhile is making a really good film, a film you feel is a success."
In an interview with the
Jerusalem Post
, Puttnam, the son of a Christian journalist and a Jewish mother, described how he got into the movie industry after a stint in advertising during the Mad Men-era, where he met many of the directors he went on to work with, including Ridley Scott (
The Duelists
) and Alan Parker (
Bugsy Malone
). It comes as a bit of a surprise that Puttnam, who was born during World War II, didn't do well in school ("I escaped at 16").
Having grown up hanging around with his father on Fleet Street, he has always had a fascination for news and reality.
"I never had any interest in science fiction," he says. "I never even really read fiction. The truth never ceases to confound me."
A keen observer of his surroundings, he notes on his fifth visit to Israel that, "I have never seen as much pent-up anger, irritability and grumpiness as the taxi drivers have here."
Puttnam who is quite interested in social justice off-screen as well as on, shows his students a short film,
The Mass of Men
, that recently won a top award at the Locarno International Film Festival. It's about a jobless man who finds himself humiliated by a counselor at an employment office in an incident that turns unexpectedly violent.
"There is a point at which people just snap," he cautions. "Violence is never the answer. But lack of leadership can drive people to desperation.
The Mass of Men
is about the need to reinvent a society."
Puttnam now lives in rural tranquility in Ireland. "I fell in love with the countryside when I was making
Local Hero
[in Scotland], but found the right piece of land a few years later in Ireland," he explains. He lives with his wife of 51 years. His children, a son who is a composer and a daughter who works for an organization that helps parents who have lost their children, are not far. This producer, who may not love the current state of effects-driven Hollywood movies, is nevertheless no technophobe and has a state-of-the-art system for delivering lectures from his study to venues around the world.
While he enjoys this relaxation that he has earned, he says that so many of those he started out with "became their own worst enemies" and fell victim to various kinds of self-indulgence, including but not exclusively drugs.
"Making movies is not a job," he says, as he praises his wife's patience with his workaholic tendencies over the years. "It's somewhere between an obsession and a profession, and a calling. You're obsessed and irritable if your work is going badly, and obsessed and irritable if it's great. But if you can manage to cope with all the rejection and truly create magic, it's the greatest career you can ever have."

Solar Campaign Continues
Help us Go Solar by supporting our cheese raffle and t-shirt campaign. Positive Energy Solar has designed a system to support 95% or more of the dairy's energy needs. For Ed and Michael this means having an energy source that could develop into a capital and maintenance fund and shave off significant expenses. Going Solar means becoming financially and environmentally stable. For our future having a solar powered dairy would help us launch a more complex educational program for farm interns.
Help us make this dream a reality by contributing to our campaign Power Cheese Shade Goats.
From the Beginning
Ed and Michael Lobaugh began their dream in 2002 by purchasing a plot of land in Estancia, New Mexico, forging fences, erecting a building, and buying 2 Nubian goats. Michael was ready to take his experiences in corporate America and explore entrepreneurship based on core values of living a simpler lifestyle. Ed spent his childhood on his grandparents' farm in 29 Palms, California, where a life with goats provided treasured memories. Ed's passion for goat farming combines his childhood experiences with his professional career as a psychiatric nurse practitioner working with children and families, many of whom have benefited from the therapeutic effects offered by spending time at the farm and with the goats.
In July 2007, they opened their dairy with a Grade A dairy license and started selling the award winning and popular goat chèvres. In 2008 they started making semi-soft cheeses such as McIntosh Cheddar, Sandia Sunrise Gouda and Manzano Blue Moon (a national award winning blue cheese).
The Old Windmill Dairy milks Nubian goats as their milk contains more butter fat than any other goat milk. They are fed Grade A alfalfa, silage, grains and molasses. The goats are very healthy on this diet, are well cared for and are even given names. Franny and Milk are the veterans that have been retired, as they no longer produce milk; however, they remain active, affectionate and enjoy being petted. Princess Grace, a pale, beige goat is one of the youngest of the herd, and she has the zesty energy and affection to prove it.
The dairy attributes its success and growth to its customers and partnering with other farms and local businesses. These partnerships have created jobs, economic stability and increased the number of hand crafted artisan cheeses made in New Mexico.
The aged cheeses produced by The Old Windmill Dairy are the first in New Mexico to be aged in a cellar designed specifically to produce the effects of cave-aging hard cheeses. The Old Windmill Dairy is looking forward to using renewable energy. This year we are embarking on fundraiser campaign to install solar energy to support the dairies needs. Our goal is to have the panels set on a structure that will provide shade for the goats.

You don't have to live near Park Slope to appreciate One Ring Zero, but it helps to know the subway map. Led by former St. Louisans Michael Hearst and Joshua Camp, this Brooklyn collective specializes in an eclectic and slightly twisted mélange of styles played on unusual instruments. (Theremins and ukuleles may not be so unexpected anymore, but virtually nowhere else will you encounter kitty litter as an instrument.) The end result often resembles Harry Partch at a Hasidic wedding. It's a unique sound that has gotten them noticed by the NYC cultural cognoscenti: They are frequent NPR guests, and one whole album, 2004's As Smart as We Are, consists entirely of collaborations with such authors as Dave Eggers and Daniel Handler. Hearst and Camp bring the band home this week for two exclusive performances.
