Light shines on independent filmmaking
Monday 10 December 2012
Movie stars from every generation graced the red carpet as the film industry raised a toast to independent British cinema.
Actors Jude Law, Michael Gambon and Ben Drew were among the film-makers who turned out last night for the Moet British Independent Film Awards at Old Billingsgate Market in London.
Jude Law was at the gongs to receive the Variety Award for shining a light on British cinema throughout his career.
"It feels great, there is no tension here tonight," he said.
"I am very proud to be a Brit in a global film industry, and to be recognised after 20 years of kind of hard work is a good thing."
Previous recipients include Sir Michael Caine, Dame Helen Mirren and Sir Kenneth Branagh.
Law, who recently accused the Government of "cultural vandalism" over plans to cut art education from the school syllabus, said the awards were a celebration of the cultural industry.
The 39-year-old added: "Let's not ruin its future by stopping kids having free and fair artistic education."
Northern Irish actor James Nesbitt, recently back in the UK from filming The Hobbit in New Zealand, hosted the award ceremony.
He introduced the show by crooning the Frank Sinatra song Come Fly With Me, adapting the lyrics to refer to film-makers in attendance.
Among those mentioned were veteran actor Terence Stamp, director and former Monty Python member Terry Gilliam and Idris Elba, who shot to fame playing suave gangster Stringer Bell in cult HBO series The Wire.
Speaking on the red carpet, Nesbitt said: "Once again I am agreeing to do this for the seventh time, but we are hopeless us Irish, we will agree to do anything.
"British independent film is in marked contrast to the economy, it is doing incredibly well and when times are hard we need film," he added.
"A lot of the films tonight are very challenging, some are very uplifting, some are very bleak but we have an incredible range of technicians, of actors, of writers and directors, and it is in a very healthy state."
Michael Gambon, 72, received the Richard Harris Award for his long and distinguished career.
The award was particularly poignant, as Gambon replaced legendary Irish actor Richard Harris in the role of Professor Dumbledore for the Harry Potter film series.
Gambon said: "I knew him and he died and I took over his part in Harry Potter.
"He only did two films and I did six films and all I did was copy Richard."
Andrea Riseborough won Best Actress gong for her role in political thriller Shadow Dancer, set in Northern Ireland during the Troubles.
Asked about the recent flair-up there, Riseborough said: "Perhaps we are not as politicised as we should be as a country, because there is no need to be immediately, because we are relatively safe, but I think people care about the conflict."
Scottish actor Peter Capaldi, who played Machiavellian spin doctor Malcolm Tucker in BBC political satire The Thick Of It, was at the awards to present a gong.
In the series' last season, aired in October, Tucker was hauled before a Leveson-style inquiry into politicians briefing the press.
Asked about his impressions of the Leveson inquiry, he said: "How many ways can you say 'I can't remember'?
"How long could they draw it out for? I think we really have a problem with so many of our people in power who seem to have very, very poor memories about events - it must be drinking, probably."

It's only 2 days, so unless you forget undies or swim suits, you will be good to go
I'd bring 2 swim suits for everyone so you don't have to put a wet one back on when you go back to the beach. Bring a couple changes of clothes. Beach towels, chairs, umbrella if your lodging doesn't provide those. Sand toys for the kiddo. Books for the adults. Wine.
Report Abuse
Don't forget the sunscreen.

I would keep packing to a minimum. The last time we went to the Caribbean, I wrote myself a big reminder note for the next trip: "PACK LESS!"
I had brought shorts and t-shirts, some casual slacks (Dockers) and casual shirts (polos and Hawaiian); different types of shoes (flip-flops, running shoes, sandals, top-siders).
At the end of the trip, I realized that 90% of the time, I had been on the beach or by the pool -- and had spent 90% of my time wearing my swimsuit or a pair of cargo shorts with a t-shirt.
Easily half of what I packed and carried never made it out of my suitcase.

You know what they say - put eveything you think you'll need on your bed. Then half it, and double the money you thought you were taking.lol
Report Abuse
Agree with others, pack less clothes, take more money.
With only 2 days you don't need much. Remember, you don't have to bring the kitchen sink. You need clean underware, a bathing suit, a fee t-shirts and shorts or khakis for when you are not at the beach.
Report Abuse
When you say "beach vacation" are you going somewhere the weather will be hot/warm? Or you're going to the shore in the fall where it will be cooler weather?

Two days, well nothing much, shorts, bathsuit, and shirt and flip flops. For the two year old bring at least 3 changes of clothing( casual of course) cause kids barf and make messes easy. Thats it, oh, and sunscreen.

-Flip flops
-Lots of change of clothes
-Hand Sanitizer

Long before the protective coatings industry had any serious notion of containment, or ventilation, or industrial hygiene, it had Phil Calvo.
Fortunately, once the industry had Calvo, containment and ventilation and industrial hygiene all followed.
After cutting his professional teeth in the silica-sand-and-compressed-air days, Calvo joined the vanguard of coatings industry professionals who were developing containment for lead paint removal when the problem was just emerging.
Back in the day, what passed for containment and ventilation could fit in a pickup truck and be paid for by petty cash, Calvo recalls in a new video interview with JPCL editor-in-chief Karen Kapsanis.
Today: Not so much.
"The simplicity of the equipment has changed drastically," Calvo says. "But it's all changed for the right reasons."
And in more than 25 years, "no two days have been alike," says Calvo.
What's changed, what hasn't, and what's the secret of his success?

This place was like one of those scary crack dens from an HBO cop show. Super gross hallway, bad location, dirty bathroom, paper thin walls. Absolutely disgusting!

Dirty (and only half a roll of toilet paper)Posted Aug 31, 2014
Cons: They need to clean the room!
This motel was the only one with a vacancy for more than 40 miles ... and that was for a reason. It was dirty: the carpet was in terrible shape, and the bathroom floor and shower weren't clean. And lock didn't inspire confidence that someone couldn't break in. The room was gross ... and not worth the price.

Low quality motel in good locationPosted Aug 19, 2014
Booked a twin room but ended up with one bed and a sofa bed which when folded out meant we couldn't access the bath room. Stayed three nights and the room was never cleaned, bin emptied or toilet paper re-supplied. Air conditioning really noisy. But great location and cheap price.

You get what you pay for.Posted Aug 5, 2014 on Hotels.com
Unfortunately our experience wasn't that great. The first room was dirty and smelled like smoke (even though it was a non-smoking room). We were moved to a different room which was an improvement, but still lacking. Bathroom floor and tub were dirty. Sink was pulled away from the wall. The outdoor landscaping was lacking... weeds all around and the artificial flowers had their time in the day already. The picture shows the best part which is the new electronic sign. Not highly recommended in my books.

Worst hotel I have ever stayedPosted Jun 24, 2014
This hotel was so overly priced for what it offered. The room was so basic I thought I was in a third world country. Little to no internet connection in the room. The door might as well not have had a lock it was so old. I don't mind staying in such hotels, but for that price, it's a real outrage!

McCoy, Spiller among those watching the NFL labor situation
Scouts Inc. takes a look at 10 junior prospects whose decisions to enter the 2009 draft could be affected by NFL labor strife.
Originally Published: July 4, 2008By Todd McShay and Steve Muench | ESPN.com
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is among those who believe that rookie salaries are far too high right now and is pushing for controls on rookie salaries and bonuses in the league's next collective bargaining agreement. The current deal is set to expire following the 2011 season but NFL owners could opt out following 2009, meaning the upcoming draft could be the last without restraints on rookie money. Below is a list of 10 underclassmen who could decide to leave school early at least in part because of the developing situation. Any number of things could happen to a player's draft stock in the next nine months or so, and we don't know each player's financial situation, but those on this list could choose to enter the draft a year early to assure themselves of a bigger payday. We are not trying to encourage or deter these players from entering the draft. That's a decision they make with their families and advisers. We are simply offering our opinion on players who could be affected most by the NFL's labor situation.

Why does there have to be only one artist as eccentric as lady gaga? I wish everyones music was actually better, but at least these music "artists" are giving us something more interesting and creative to look at, whether it is a hit or a miss. Why does everyone always have to be pretty or attractive. Looking at ke$ha, gaga, or nicki minaj is way more intriguing than discussing how pretty someone is or "ooh, Taylor swift had bangs now"

Pure entertainment. People need to take this a little less seriously and just enjoy the fact that she looks ridiculous.

Young British Foodie: Nicola Patchett is a marshmallow maker and online sweet shop founder
Related Articles
Published: 30 October 2012
Nicola Patchett, 32, is a marshmallow maker and online sweet shop founder based in Upper Holloway
What she does: From Monday until Wednesday Nicola works as a policy analyst in the government "to pay the rent" but she spends the evenings, Thursdays, Fridays and the weekends making marshmallows. Since 2011 she has been making her own sweets selling them in London delis and shops and from her website (she currently stocks marshmallow flavours which include raspberry, lemon meringue, English lavender, gingerbread). "It's getting quite full on at the moment. I want to do this full time. Luckily my employer's been really supportive," she says.
How she did it: During a visit to Canada in 2009 she noticed that in all of the sweet shops people were making their products on the premises. "It was amazing. On the long coach journeys out there, I thought about how to start a sweet shop." After that Nicola began giving stuff to friends and family and bringing it into work to help her refine the recipes. "In the long term, I want to improve my skills but right now I'm just teaching myself how to do it all."
What's next: She is working on new candy-type sweets, chocolates and new packaging for the Patchett's Confectionery range. Everything she makes uses natural ingredients and has no artificial flavours.
Why she does it: "I've got such a sweet tooth. I eat sweets all the time and I've always wanted to open my own shop."
Where you can find her: Nicola will have a stand at the BBC Good Food Show London at Olympia London on November 9-11, bbcgoodfoodshowlondon.com, patchettsconfectionery.co.uk

Syrian plane diverted to Turkey 390.
(photo credit:Reuters)
Turkey came under fire from Russia Thursday when Moscow accused it of
endangering Russian lives, a day after the Turkish military commandeered a
Syrian plane and forced it to land in Ankara.The pointed words from
Russia's Foreign Ministry, the diplomatic equivalent of shouting, evinced a yet
further escalation of the conflict as Syria's civil war grinds on and gradually
spills beyond its borders.Although at issue appears to be one civilian
Syrian airplane that was forced by Turkish fighter jets to land Wednesday night
en route to Damascus, the plane is actually a symbol of the larger forces at
play. Russia has been supporting the Syrian regime politically but also
militarily, analysts say, though both countries deny there were any arms on the
plane.Turkish leaders, however, insist that the Airbus A-320, which was
carrying between 30 and 35 passengers from Moscow late Wednesday, was also
carrying arms to help Syrian President Bashar Assad fight rebels who have been
waging a 19-month insurrection against his rule."They are equipment and
munitions sent for the Syrian Defense Ministry from a Russian institution" which
is the equivalent to Turkey's state arms manufacturer, Turkish Prime Minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, told a televised news conference in Ankara. He said a
further inspection of the cargo was taking place.Turkish Deputy Prime
Minister Bekir Bozdag said earlier Thursday that Turkey would not be the conduit
for "shipments of arms to the dirty war in Syria," according to Turkey's
Anatolia news agency.The country's foreign minister, Ahmet Davutoglu,
said Syria was a regime committing "brutal massacres against civilians," and
added, "It is unacceptable that such a transfer is made using our
airspace."In Turkey, public sentiment is largely against getting
involved in the war in Syria. But most feel Turkey was justified in the move to
take down the plane, in part because Syria abused Turkish airspace to traffic
weapons, following a week of violent volleys along their border.Indeed,
missing from Russia's condemnation of Turkey's actions is any hint of clarity of
its policy toward Syria.Western and Turkish officials suggest Russia is
continuing to arm the Alawite regime to help it keep strategic superiority over
the rebels. Turkey, for its part, has acknowledged its opposition to the Syrian
regime and is openly harboring Syrian rebel and opposition leaders. There are
some reports that Ankara has also been supplying small weaponry, though these
have been impossible to confirm."Russia cannot or will not give a direct
response to questions about its behavior. They are running a clandestine policy
toward Syria, and then they respond in a cowardly way against Turkey – showing
they are angry but not acknowledging what was on the plane," says Nihat Ali
Özcan, an analyst in Ankara at TEPAV, the Economic and Policy Research
Foundation of Turkey.The war in Syria has grown increasingly worrisome
for Turkey for many reasons. More than 96,000 refugees from Syria have streamed
across the border, the highest number in the Middle East. Turkey fears that
Kurdish rebels have taken advantage of the porous border, and military groups
such as the PKK (Kurdistan Workers Party) have stepped up their anti-Turkish
activities in the past two months. Finally, the war has had an effect on the
Turkish economy, and is expected to impact tourism because holiday-makers will
stay away, says Özcan."It's a long border, there is no control over it
at the moment and the economic situation is getting worse," Özcan said. "In the
midterm, there are a lot of jihadist groups coming in because of the fighting in
Syria. Long term, it's a big problem for Turkey. The central government in Syria
is losing their power, and so these radical groups can gain, especially along
the border."Jihad Makdissi, Syria's Foreign Ministry spokesman, said in
a statement that the plane wasn't carrying any weapons or illegal cargo, and
that Turkey's actions were indicative of its "hostile" attitude towards Syria.
Lebanon's Al Manar television quoted Syria's Transport Minister Mahmoud Saeed as
saying Turkey's move amounted to "air piracy which contradicts civil aviation
treaties."Russia's censure of Turkey must be put into perspective, says
Jonathan Spyer, a senior research fellow at the Global Research in International
Affairs Center at IDC Herzliya."Turkey is under intense criticism from
Russia, but the most important thing to remember is that Russia is the main arms
supplier and the main ally of the Assad regime. It's the Russians that have been
backing them and using their veto at the UN Security Council," Spyer
says.Turkey, consequently, is finding itself in a difficult
position.Although much of the international community has given
lip-service to the goal of seeing the end of Assad's regime, few are taking
action to make that happen – and few live close enough to be faced with the
consequences."The Turks have been supporting the rebels, and are now
finding themselves alone in the field," Spyer said. "It's easy for the Syrians
to see that, and so now they're being quite disrespectful of Turkey's
boundaries.A political nightmare would be for Turkey to see itself drawn
into a war with Syria, not as part of a coalition or with clear Western backing,
but completely on its own."

FALL EDUCATIONAL SUMMARY Friday, October 10th was a cool Columbus day where nearly 130 OCASLA members and guests met at the Hyatt Regency Columbus. The day began with a sit-down lunch and a talk by Michael Wilkos of The Columbus Foundation. Michael discussed the growth trends and economics of Columbus and compared the City to other cities in Ohio. Afterwards, the group moved outside to begin the educational walking tour.
We began walking south on High Street and reached our first tour destination; The Columbus Commons. Tour attendees gained unique insight into the history of the construction of the Commons, as well as important design considerations. The tour speakers were Amy Taylor, Chief Operating Officer for the Columbus Downtown Development Corporation and Paul Lada, Landscape Architect for EDGE.
From the Commons we walked to the Scioto Riverfront to tour sections of the Scioto Greenway, starting at the amphitheater and ending at North Bank Park. Along the way we watched a demonstration of the Scioto Mile Fountain as construction crews worked along the banks of the Scioto River. Brad Westall, landscape architect for Columbus Parks and Recreation and Bryon Ringley, Senior Principle at Stantec were the speakers for this portion of the tour.
We met Keith Myers, FASLA, at North Bank Park where he led the group to various sites in the Arena District. Coffee in hand, he shared the history of the design and construction of the Arena District, including a humorous story about relocating The Arch from Union Station to its final destination at McFerson Commons Park. The group stopped in front of Columbus City Hall for a photo-opportunity with Columbus Mayor Michael B. Coleman. See the photo in the photo gallery.
The tour ended near Nationwide Arena at about 4:40pm. See the full photo gallery.
GALA SUMMARY At 6:30pm guests arrived at the High Line Car House for the Gala and Awards Ceremony. Food and drinks were served while the band Me & Lil' Brother entertained in the background. At 7:30pm members of the Student Chapter of ASLA (SCASLA) presented the 2014 OCASLA Award winners.

Ohh what to do..what to do i like them BOTH!!
The difference?
Question Posted Tuesday December 28 2004, 1:44 am
Is there a difference between psychologists and psychiatrists? And if there is one, then what is it? I'm just a curious 14yr old freshman, I want to be one of the two when I grow up, but I'm not sure which one because I don't know the difference between the two. I've seen one of the two when I was anorexic, but I don't remember what kind, and I want to be that kind of something of the such. I want to be a "shrink" that works with kids... what exactly would that be?

answered Tuesday December 28 2004, 4:07 am:
yes, there is a difference. Quite simply, a psychiatrist can prescribe medications and a psychologist can't. A psychiatrist is an M.D, whereas a psychologist is more often a Ph.D. that's all there is. your particular field would be "child psychiatry/psychology". Good luck on your chosen field. from personal experience, it's s good one.

Tuesday, November 1, 1994 - Page updated at 12:00 AM
Jack Metcalf In The 2Nd
REPUBLICAN Jack Metcalf is endorsed for Congress in the 2nd District without pride or enthusiasm.
Voters in both parties from Monroe to Bellingham deserve better choices than they will have on the ballot next week. The primary was slim pickings too.
Democrat Harriet Spanel is a decent person, a good-government type whom voters of Whatcom County promoted from the state House to the Senate. But in six years she hardly made a ripple on the legislative pond in Olympia. The fear is she would disappear in the congressional ocean.
Metcalf is an ideologue, not a doer, who's better at ranting than legislating. To his credit, Metcalf is direct and voters will know exactly where he stands. It will only take one term before the 2nd District realizes it is being short-changed in Washington.
The frustration here is that neither candidate is a credible replacement for Al Swift, the classic low-profile congressman whose influence had more heft than his stack of press clippings. He virtually wrote the Northwest Power Act in his freshman term, and later would lead the charge for overhauling the Superfund, be a leader in telecommunications issues, push for campaign reform and emerge as the congressional godfather of high-speed rail transportation, now officially known as Swift Rail.
He did not always succeed, but that happens when one picks the toughest fights.
Nov. 9, both parties ought to be out recruiting for 1996.

Daily deals websites sent letters of warning by OFT
By Sarah Shearman, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Monday, 25 June 2012 10:06AM
The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) has sent letters of warning to 35 daily deals sites, including KGB Deals and LivingSocial, asking them to review their trading practices amid growing consumer concern.
The OFT has informed the companies that its recent investigation into Groupon has set an industry standard and their practices must be in line with its ruling.
The OFT said it is monitoring complaints about unfair commercial practices in the daily deals market and will take enforcement action against companies that breach the law.
Groupon reached a settlement with the OFT earlier this year, in which it agreed to "change its practices to comply with the law" and apologised for letting customers down.
The OFT's main concerns related to Groupon's failure to conduct promotions fairly, exaggerating savings claims, and failure to provide evidence that offers were available.
The agreement came after a three-month investigation following complaints from consumers and a referral from the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA).
The ASA has continued to receive complaints about Groupon's ads this year. Just last week, complaints about three separate KGB Deals ads were upheld by the ASA.
Peter Briffett, managing director of LivingSocial, UK and Ireland did not comment on the OFT letter, but said the company had a "strong collaborative and constructive relationship with the ASA" and had recently received communication from them "detailing their satisfaction with our compliance record" over the past six months.
Briffett said: "We pride ourselves on our continued good record in this area."
KGB did not respond to a request for comment at the time of publishing.

World Bulletin / News Desk
The ministry of education in Konya and the Turkish Republic's head prosecution has started an investigation after security camera footage was released of a down syndrome patient being beaten in a rehabilitation center in the city's Beysehir district.
The assault, which took place on 13 September, is being made against Fatih K., a teacher at the Seydisehir school. The accused also happens to be the husband of the owner of the center. The case was only brought to light when Evren Erbas, who works at the center, began his own investigation.
The video shows Fatih K. pulling the down syndrome patient Ismail E. out of a classroom and beating him in the corridor. It is believed that the beating continued even after Fatih K. moved Ismail E. out of the camera's viewing range.
After completing his report, Evren Erbas has said he will resign from his post at the school. Ismail E.'s brother Mustafa expressed his family's shock in saying, 'We sent my brother to this school so he could get a better education, but seeing this has upset us…we want to authorities to handle this case immediately. My family will press charges against the school owner and Fatih K.'

Hugo Chavez to Edgar Renteria: "We beat Bush's team!"
Nov 4, 2010, 8:28 PM EST
This is absolutely delicious.
Earlier this week Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez and Colombian president Juan Manuel Santos had a summit meeting. As recounted in this BBC report, the meeting was interrupted so Santos could call national hero Edgar Renteria and congratulate him on winning the World Series. Chavez, a huge baseball fan, spoke with Renteria too. And yes, that's actually a picture of Chavez on the phone talking to Renteria.
What didn't make the BBC report, however — but which did make it into Daniel Lozano's report in the Spanish language paper Publico was this:
"The two leaders joked over the phone with baseball player Edgar Renteria, the star who just won the baseball title for the San Francisco Giants after 56 years. Chavez challenged him to a Caimanera (a casual game) and confessed his joy at the victory: 'We beat Bush's team!'"
That's some tasty world-leader-level taunting. But man, I'm glad we have term limits in this country. If Bush were still in office the air strikes would be launched by dawn.
(thanks to Nick Collias for the heads up and the translation of the Lozano report)

Sochi Olympics 2014: American Bobsledder Johnny Quinn Gets Stuck Again Due to a Jammed Door, But He Didn't Destroy Problem Elevator Door

The occurrence of lightning striking twice in the same place is a rare event. And so does being stuck in a tiny room because of a jammed door lock in the same Olympic.
Fireworks explode after the Olympic Cauldron is been lit during the opening ceremony of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, February 7, 2014.

But it did happen to American bobsledder Johnny Quinn who was in the news last week for using his bobsledding training to destroy the door of his hotel bathroom that refused to open. Quinn said he had no recourse except to use brute force since his mobile phone was in the other room.
The news and video of the destroyed door became viral in the internet.
On Monday, Quinn once more tweeted a second incident involving another Sochi door - this time it was not a bathroom door but an elevator door. He was trapped in the lift with fellow American athletes David Cripps and Nick Cunningham. Click here to see the photo of Quinn trapped inside an elevator.
However, while Quinn did not indicate in his later tweet how he managed to get out, he obviously didn't use his training to bust open the elevator door made of a heavier material than bathroom doors that are usually made of wood.

This is the last of three articles about early Atlanta Pioneers Richard and Martha Todd, their family, and remnant traces of their early presence in the Atlanta area. The first article was about the Todd Homestead, and the second article was about the Todd Cemetery. If you look at a map of the Virginia-Highland area, it is plain to see that it is a planned development with streets laid out mostly in even grids.
