At the 2014 Maker Faire, mythbuster and creative Adam Savage spent some time talking about what it takes to be a Maker. He kicked off his talk by defining what he calls his Ten Commandments of Making. Maker Faire tends to have a craftsperson appeal, but what struck me was how well Adam's ten principles translated to the film & video industry. Here are Adam's Ten Commandments, paraphrased and expanded for creatives in production.

Sometimes you have to whisper to get someone's attention. I was struck by the clean simplicity of this short film about the process of making a NOMOS Glashütte Swiss timepiece. There are no flashy camera moves, no stirring emotional score. Just understated, clean compositions that get out of the way and let the content shine through. And the audio capture & sound design is perfect. Watch below.

It has been said that 90% of good cinematography is pointing the camera at something that looks good, and for me a large part of that equation means shooting the right time of day for the right location. I have used Helios for a while to help determine when and where I should be for the best light, but on a recent project I was able to push this technology to a whole new level. Cultivate Studios recently received a call from a client. They wanted to be shooting on location in Turkey in ten days and I had no budget for a scout to work remotely and I had never been to the country. It was time to do some homework.

Last fall I produced a large video project for a large youth summer camp based in the Ozarks. This organization offers an intense multi-week program for kids of all ages. My Arkansas video production company was hired to shoot and edit a number of video assets to be used in the camp's marketing efforts for the following season. Thanks to an existing relationship with Editshare (they have assisted FreshDV's NAB coverage in the past), I had the opportunity to work with a portable Editshare Field 2 unit throughout both production and post on this project. I wanted to talk about how the Field 2 fit into our workflow in this case-study.

Wood handgrips have come back in to vogue lately. There's something lovely about a warm wooden grip when operating a handheld camera. It feels amazing, and it looks damn fine. There are several folks making wood grips these days, a lot of designs are similar to the look of the classic Aaton wooden grip. One company that has sprung up recently is KinoGrip, and they now offer a wide variety of custom trigger and non-triggered grips that hearken back to the Aaton spirit, but with an updated shape. I've been shooting with a KinoGrip for a while now, and love it. Read on for some photos and my thoughts...

Recently I was looking for a formula that would allow me to calculate how much light output I would get from a given size HMI once I punched it through a 12x12 diffusion frame. Calculating light output for an un-modified light source is pretty straightforward; tools like the iOS app Pocket LD offer a catalog of heads, and tell you what their photometrics are at a given distance. But diffusion is a much different animal...there are so many variables, really the only way to know how a light source output will be affected is by experience and testing...

Cinevate launched something very interesting today, a stabilizer system for small cameras. Morpheus is a stabilizer, tripod, and mini-dolly that they've been developing for years.
Sometimes it's the simple ideas that are most beautiful. This music video seems almost too simplistic; it's just a man on fire, an RC octocopter, and a FS700 shooting slowmo. And yet it is executed beautifully. Watch below...

Here's an exceptional behind-the-scenes featurette that talks about the sound and foley work in Gravity. One interesting note...the Foley artists used transducer contact mics to create many of the sounds in the film…that is, they recorded vibration from contact, not airborne audio, which is similar to how astronauts would experience sound in space. They also talk about using Dolby Atmos to fine-tune panning and positioning of audio, and how that helped to mirror the disorientation of on-screen characters. It's a fascinating piece, watch below.

Here's a lovely before and after peek at the extensive VFX and compositing work in Great Gatsby. As a DP who prefers to shoot things practically, I'm frankly surprised at the need to make up some of these locations in post! I'd love to know the budgetary and scheduling limitations that pushed these filmmakers to do some of these shots with visual effects instead of live. Watch below.

I've always enjoyed the pace of Cine Gear more than NAB expo. Set on the Paramount LA backlot on street sets and amongst huge sound stages, it's smaller, more intimate, and a lot more cine-focused. It's one of the highlights of my year, and Cine Gear 2013 this last weekend was no exception. Here are a few things that caught my eye as I was browsing through the fake streets of New York.

There's an Oscar nominated short that's making the rounds this week. It's called Paperman, and is a six minute animated Disney short that preceded Wreck-it Ralph in theaters.

This is a really cool project...the challenge was to create an image out of a word, using only the letters in the word itself, and using only the graphic elements of the letters. The result is some very clean and clever motion graphic elements. Sound design also plays a big part. Watch below.

Here's an awesome behind the scenes look at the bridge sequence in Final Destination 5. This scene is very heavy on visual effects, with a lot of work put into integrating practical sets, actors, and visual effects. Even with all the greenscreens they built at the practical locations, the sheer amount of rotoscoping work that had to happen here makes my head spin. Watch below...

I have a colleague (the buyer at a local chocolate store) who is going to ISM (international confectionery show) in a couple of weeks and I have asked him to see if he can locate it, try it, and see if it's worth bringing in. They already bring in product from Germany so they should be able to combine shipping.
In the meantime, it's available on Amazon.de and other on-line shopping outlets in the EU - the company, Tiroler Edle, is Austrian.

Dodge Challenger outsells Ford Mustang last month and YTD
by Chris Shunk (RSS feed) on Mar 13th, 2009 at 10:01AM
The Ford Mustang has been a dominant force in the sales department well before the last generation Chevy Camaro rode off into the sunset. That changed last month. Ford's iconic pony car has been outsold by the Dodge Challenger by 293 units in February, as the Dodge coupe racked up 3,283 sales during a very challenging month. The Challenger's February victory could be a sign of things to come for the Mustang, as the Blue Oval's most recognizable vehicle is set to get bombarded with more competition coming from the 2010 Camaro. The Camaro, which goes into regular production on March 16, already... Read More

Pastor Maldonado could be on the look-out for a new home with reports claiming his Williams deal won't be extended into 2014.
Backed by Venezuelan oil company PDVSA, Maldonado made his Formula One debut back in 2011 with Williams.
However, his arrival coincided with a downturn in the team's fortunes and in his first year he scored just one point.
And although 2012 saw a mini revival, including a victory at the Spanish GP, this year Maldonado is yet again sitting on one point.
Added to that, the 28-year-old has at times been vocal in criticising Williams' car and strategies, sparking rumours that his days are numbered.
According to the BBC's Eddie Jordan - who got Michael Schumacher's comeback at Mercedes right but may have missed with his recent prediction that Nico Hulkenberg is set to return to Force India - Maldonado won't be at Williams next season.
His departure, though, may have more to do with the driver than the team with EJ claiming 'Maldonado has been trying to get out of Williams all season.'
The BBC adds that a switch to Force India or Sauber could be on the cards.

President Obama met with Congressional leaders to discuss the so-called fiscal cliff. Spending cuts and tax hikes will take effect January 1st if lawmakers fail to reach a deal. Here with more on the meeting is YNN's Erin Billups.
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- With just six weeks before the nation's economy is set to plummet off the so-called fiscal cliff, a series of sharp tax hikes and automatic spending cuts, President Obama, Vice President Biden and Congressional leaders began negotiations Friday to avert the impending crisis.
"I think we're all aware that we have some urgent business to do. We've got to make sure that taxes don't go up on middle class families, that our economy remains strong," said President Obama.
After meeting behind closed doors for over an hour, the House and Senate leaders emerged optimistic.
"I believe that we can do this and avert the fiscal cliff," said House Speaker John Boehner."I feel very good about what we were able to talk about in there. We have the cornerstones of being able to work something out," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
And unlike with most other past statements made on the fiscal cliff, Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell did not specifically say they would reject tax hikes on the wealthy.
"I outlined a framework that deals with reforming our tax code and reforming our spending," said Boehner.
Both Boehner and McConnell stressed there will be no agreement without cuts to spending. Specifically to entitlements.
"We're prepared to put revenue on the table provided we fix the real problem. Even though most of my members, I think without exception, believe that we're in the dilemma we're in not because we tax too little, but because we spend too much," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
The lawmakers offered few details and did not take any questions, but House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi did stress the need for a specific deficit reduction goal and a deadline before Christmas.
"We should show some milestones of success so that confidence can build as we reach our solution," said Pelosi.
The leaders plan to work through the Thanksgiving recess and say they will meet with the president the following week.
"This isn't something we're going to wait to the last day of December to get it done," said Reid.

Report on the Foreign Policy of the Czech Republic 2005
13.11.2006 / 10:36
The full text of the Report is available on Google books.
Dear readers,
This is the seventh report on the Czech Republic's foreign policy prepared by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic. It contains summary information about Czech foreign policy for 2005 and will inform you about the achievements of Czech diplomacy.
Besides its traditional priorities, such as strengthening Euro-Atlantic ties and furthering friendly relations with neighbouring countries, the Czech Republic's foreign policy activities in 2005 concentrated on supporting democracy and the development of human rights in countries where authoritative regimes continue to suppress values that we now take for granted. The Czech Republic also continued to participate in the fight against international terrorism, which again reminded Europe of the reality of this threat.
The Czech Republic also actively promoted its foreign policy priorities within the European Union, where the country successfully completed its first year of membership.
The book also contains information regarding the economic and cultural dimension of Czech foreign policy; and space is devoted to the presentation of the Czech Republic abroad, where one of the most significant events of 2005 was the presentation of the country' s new, original logo.
I hope and trust that you will find the information about the Czech Republic's foreign policy contained in this publication interesting and useful reading.
Cyril Svoboda
Minister of Foreign Affairs
of the Czech Republic

When you think "American", you think about John Wayne! Rest In Peace Duke!
In Hondo as the Cavalry rides up to drive the Apache off to a reservation he sadly says "it is the end of a good way of life".
I think maybe this perception of anti-Indian comes because he, being a strong right wing conservative I seldom agreed with, took a hardline when the Native American activitists took over Alcatraz.
He was very publically livid about what he perceived as disrespect for public property and the rule of law. He felt much the same way about anyone who disagreed with the VietNam war etc.
I loved him in his movies and I loved that he was at least passionate about issues and life all though we were om very opposite sides of most issues..
I would like to think he is still riding the range on a good Buckskin ghost horse carrying his Henry Rifle or haunting his beloved yacht, The Wild Goose, chasing sailfish off Catalina Island. It was a retired converted mine sweeper and he made a big deal out of raising or lowering the flag whenever he was on board. The two pictures are of his boat and of the Duke taking a launch from the Goose to his movie set. They were filming on the coast and he actually stayed on the boat during filming. He also had stomach cancer and was undergoing treatment at the time. That is why he has a liquid meal in his hand. He never missed a day of filming. I think the movie was the Son's of Katie Elder if I remember correctly.
His views were different from mine but he was not disingenuous and made several attempts to join the service but was flunked for knee and joint problems each time.
Well Pilgrim.... wherever you are I hope you are healthy and happy with warm women and cold drinks! Cross dresser??? This is one lesbian that doesn't buy it for a second!

The gullibility of people never ceases to amaze me. Say that John Wayne dressed in women's clothing and *poof* people believe it without any evidence whatsoever! Amazing! Some dupes likely still think J. Edgar Hoover wore women's clothes (((((NEWSFLASH))))) it's a lie.
John Wayne played John Wayne on the screen like Henry Fonda played Henry Fonda, Cary Grant played Cary Grant, etc. If you want to see the man act, catch The Searchers and then tell me he couldn't act.
Also, I don't care if John Wayne didn't like this group or that bunch, it does not diminish him in any way. Many of you might be stunned to know of the personal prejudices of the famous and the infamous. Everyone has them to one degree or another. I happen to know that tree bark and light switches are totally without any prejudices whatsoever, does that endow them with nobility?
Victory will belong only to those who have faith in the people, those who are immersed in the life-giving spring of popular creativity.
handsome, good actor, no one will ever beat the duke.
Dick Cavett's interview with John Wayne.
"Ive been reminded that, in my earlier column on what to me were three glorious days spent in the company of John Wayne, I said that there is more to the story. Heres what I meant:
I hurried through all my duties in shooting my special to hang with my new friend as much as possible. Just at this moment of typing Ive identified the feeling I was having then. It was as if a 7th grader (me) had been befriended by the popular, big, tall, jock upperclassman. And wished everyone could see us together, maybe with his hand on my shoulder.
(Did anyone just reach for an airsick bag?)
The picture, The Shootist, was his last. There is debate still about whether Wayne knew at the time that he like the legendary gunfighter he was playing was dying of cancer. Most agree that he did.
Here was a greatly talented, highly intelligent, college-educated, well-read man of immense personal charm and humor. I think we can agree that he knew.
Theres a rough-going scene in which he asks Jimmy Stewart, playing his doctor, not to spare him the details of what will happen as the disease progresses. Its fascinating, if true as some say that he had not been able to do this in life, but by requesting that the script be sharpened in detail on this point chose this route to the information.
If I had to pick 10 highlights of my life, one would be my arrival on the set at almost the instant this scene was shot in the doctors office. The crew knew their long-time friend was not well. There seemed to be more people than usual standing around watching. When Stewart delivered the line with the dread word in it the one even doctors will euphemise, as in ca. of the breast a burly stage-hand-type near me had to quickly cover his mouth, apparently fearing that the sort of tearful, involuntary snort he emitted might have been picked up by a mike, spoiling the take. Similar moments on the part of crew members could be seen all around."
Thanks for that great story! I watched the Shootist for the umpteenth time yesterday and thought I would post today on my thoughts.
I was never a huge John Wayne fan until after his death. I remember watching his last interview with Barbara Walters and I suddenly became a fan. There was a sweetness about him that I had never sensed before.( I should have checked youtube before I started this to see if it's there so I could included it here.) He knew his days were almost over, and I agree, when he made the Shootist, I think he knew it was his last. I didn't see the Shootist until after he died, and I can see the same sweetness and gentility in his performance. It is my absolute favorite of his and I think he should have gotten the Oscar for this one. It gave me a new appreciation for his movies that I didn't have before so now I go back and watch many of his movies that I was never interested in and I have really become a huge fan. Other favorites are Hondo, The Sons of Katie Elder, El Dorado, The Searchers, really most of the later westerns. If you are not a techno dummy, like me, look for that interview and see if it's on Youtube. Maybe someone else can post it here. I'll bet it will change some opinions of the Duke!
Not very PC, but I always thought it was funny.
I never laughed so hard until I read is entry on findadeath! Good stuff. My favorite movies by him are and will always be Stagecoach, The Quiet Man, and Mclintock! I could watch those 3 at least once day and never tire of them. Is Maureen O'hara still alive? She has to be well into her 90's by now. I'm pretty sure just about anything those 2 did would've been gold. I salute you Duke!!!
Picts from when we stayed in the John Wayne room at the Culver. He lived here for short time when He owned the place.
his kids are fighting over his estate, 31 years after his death:
John Wayne had three children by Pilar. Aissa and Ethan are the two oldest of the three. I believe Aissa is a lawyer. It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Sounds like JW left all of his kids fairly well off. Still, no matter how many million they end up with, theres always one who can piss it away isn't isn't there?
Hi everyone, I have yet to read this thread but I plan to. I love John Wayne! My love of him came from my dad and his from his dad, oddly lol I always thought my dad looked a little like John just younger of course. My favorite movies of his were McLintock, True Grit, Chisum, The Sons of Katie Elder, Rio Bravo, El Dorado, Rooster Cogburn and the lady, and Angel and the bad man. I didn't like his movie The Cowboys, and The Shootist because I didn't like seeing him get beat up and or shot and not being able to fight back it was just to sad for me. I wasn't much of a fan of war movies, I always like John better because though Clint Eastwood is a good actor and one of my favorite movies of his was Space Cowboys. Wayne always or at least always had some humor in his movies and for me thats important not all the time because some movies can't have to much humor because its an obviously serious movie anyway I'm rambling I'm just glad I found this thread to be able to express my love of John Wayne.
*smiles, and laughs* Love it! Thanks for posting that.
ur most welcome. another great DUKE clip is either from that episode or another one where Dino asks him what he hopes his new daughter (i don't remember her name) will learn from him and his response was so heartflet and so patriotic you would've thought they were gonna start playing john mellencamp's "Little Pink Houses" when he finished. No kidding http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBQ1T1sQQ_E
His daughter Aissa is an Attorney so wondering how this case is progressing? This is Aissa's website:http://www.aissawayne.com/
John Wayne's Kids -- Duking It Out Over Estate
6/4/2010 12:05 AM PDT by TMZ Staff
A standoff is underway between several members of John Wayne's family -- with his son and daughter battling each other over millions.
It's all over The Duke's estate -- worth somewhere between $10 and $15 million ... depending on which kid you ask.
In legal papers, filed Thursday in L.A. County Superior Court, John's daughter Aissa Wayne claims she wants to sell her share of the estate -- and another one of the The Duke's kids, Ethan Wayne, is obligated to come up with a "fair-market" price to buy her out.
Aissa -- along with several of Wayne's grandkids -- claim they believe the fortune is worth $15,400,000 ... but Ethan only thinks it's worth $10,704,000.
Now, Aissa -- and the grand kids -- want a judge to rule on the value of the estate ... so they can get their money and move on with their lives.

I love John Wayne,he will forever remind me of my dad and my dad will forever remind me of him.
As a smoker, I don't understand how someone can smoke 5 packs a day! Holy moly! I can barely smoke 8 cigs in a day. That would be 50 for him. Wow. He must have smelled to smokey "high heaven" as a person! Ewwww.
Wait... that's 100 cigs with 20 in a pack. My god! His lungs should have looked like burnt BBQ pork ribs.

I was curious everyone who love's John Wayne and his movies was anyone mad about the fact they did a remake of one of his more well known movies "True Grit"?
Last edited by TeddyBear; 02-15-2011 at 09:51 PM.
John Wayne himself was in an example of a bad remake of a classic western, Three God fathers. The remake starred Harry Carey junior along with the Duke reprising the role of Harry Carey Senior.
Also there was a terrible remake of Red River in 1988, the original was , in my opinion, one of the best westerns ever made.
As much as they keep touting that it is more faithful to the book almost most every trailer they have shown has classic lines from the original.
I am sure Jeff Bridges is fine in the role.
The Duke is big boots to fill so good luck to him. I am a huge John Wayne fan so the movie will be an exercise in comparisons for me but I am not offended by it.
As a kid I got to visit the saloon set at Old Tucson while they were filming Rio Lobo. I also saw The Green Berets at a drive-in theater! John Wayne is the first person I always think of when someone starts talking about movie stars. Very few of today's movie stars come close to him.
I may look calm. But in my head, I've killed you three times.
I've seen both versions of True Grit and enjoyed both.
The original version with the Wayne and Kim Darby was entertaining and followed the Portis novel in the interaction between the two leads.
Also, visually stunning. The only weak delivery was Glen Campbell.
I remember seeing Wayne as a child in films and finding him a strong heroic character for a young girl.
I think gay marriage is something that should be between a man and a woman ... Arnold Schwarzenegger
Oh, I love the Duke so much and have many of his films on DVD! We all know the story of that Genghis Khan film The Conqueror and how he and the cast and crew were exposed to that atomic fallout on the desert set. If only he decided to pass on that Khan role...
How many men does it take to change John Waynes light bulb?
None he was a real man and he wasn't afraid of the dark.
I loved alot of his movies but I'm really partial to The Shootist.

Extensive bio on Wayne at IMDB. Homophobe? I'd be surprised at any straight man who didn't have issues during his era. He was adamantly against any film portrayal that might show a man in less than a, manly, heroic light, yet believed personal lives for anyone should be just that.
Humorous to read his various comments, and what appeared a conflict to the life he led. Less than glamorous and on the edge.
An occasional Wayne film is sufficient for me ...
I think gay marriage is something that should be between a man and a woman ... Arnold Schwarzenegger
Also the Undefeated was another great money made with a gay man as a co-star.
He also worked with several gay writers and at least bi-sexual directors.
I think he is like most people of his era that could deal with individual gay people without having much fondness for the group.
Mary ... It might have been his public persona. He adamantly defended Reagan and Nixon, belonged to the NRA, said he was both conservative and progressive and occasionally liberal.
If Wayne was in complete acceptance of gay's he'd be rare indeed.
We might never know his true beliefs. He may have been loyal to his industry, which is not unique.

"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."
This is a quote from The Duke from his Playboy interview.

My favorite John Wayne movie was McClintock. "No whiskey we go" lol.
A few years back I was too broke to get my dad a birthday present, so I took him to Pacific View Memorial Park to visit the Duke. Recently the Old Guys Rule surfwear company started a John Wayne line, the proceeds of which go the cancer research. My dad and his brother have matching shirts, and when my uncle was in town, I took em both up there to have pics taken of them in their shirts and the Duke's headstone.
One last tidbit, the gentleman who was the embalming instructor in mortuary school was the guy who embalmed John Wayne. He'd also made a death mask of John Wayne, and it's still displayed at the school. He also claimed that the Duke was, ahem, well hung

Great pic Morty!
Wanna see my grandkids?
My dad is from that generation who grew up thinking that John Wayne was just the coolest. If anyone is curious about John Wayne past the cowboy, then check out "The Quiet Man." As near as I can gather, that is one of the few times John Wayne was not a cowboy, and his chemistry with that beautiful Maureen O'Hara is pretty sexy for the era.
Here is a picture of Maureen O' Hara...
...She was quite the stunner, imho
Has anyone heard of that silly rumor about John Wayne's colon? The silly rumor is that after he died, his colon weighed like 40 pounds or something. So odd. It was debunked and everything, but I always thought that was really funny because of how it makes no sense medically.

My parents worshipped him. All 3 of my brothers (in their early 20's) still think he's the coolest thing since sliced bread and porn. I never got it. He just seemed like such a windbag. One who played the same part over and over.
I will admit. I do enjoy Donovan's Reef.
You can't "nu uh" death. That's bad debating.
Knowing how he suffered at the end of his life, I'm glad that he was able to eat and drink like he wanted to before his last illness.
Like all of us, John Wayne had his good points and his bad ones.
Here's a little story about those who petitioned Congress for a special medal for the Duke. I especially like the remarks from director Robert Aldrich.
John Wayne's enduring status as an iconic American was formally recognized by the United States Congress on May 26, 1979, when he was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. Hollywood figures and American leaders from across the political spectrum, including Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra, Mike Frankovich, Katharine Hepburn, General and Mrs. Omar Bradley, Gregory Peck, Robert Stack, James Arness, and Kirk Douglas, testified to Congress of the merit and deservedness of this award.
Most notable was the testimony of Robert Aldrich, then president of the Directors Guild of America:
"It is important for you to know that I am a registered Democrat and, to my knowledge, share none of the political views espoused by Duke. However, whether he is ill disposed or healthy, John Wayne is far beyond the normal political sharp shooting in this community. Because of his courage, his dignity, his integrity, and because of his talents as an actor, his strength as a leader, his warmth as a human being throughout his illustrious career, he is entitled to a unique spot in our hearts and minds. In this industry, we often judge people, sometimes unfairly, by asking whether they have paid their dues. John Wayne has paid his dues over and over, and I'm proud to consider him a friend and am very much in favor of my Government recognizing in some important fashion the contribution that Mr. Wayne has made."
Maureen O'Hara, Wayne's close friend, initiated the petition for the medal and requested the words that would be placed onto the medal: "It is my great honor to be here. I beg you to strike a medal for Duke, to order the President to strike it. And I feel that the medal should say just one thing, 'John Wayne, American.' The medal crafted by the United States Mint has on one side John Wayne riding on horseback, and the other side has a portrait of Wayne with the words, "John Wayne, American." This Congressional Gold Medal was presented to the family of John Wayne in a ceremony held on March 6, 1980, at the United States Capitol. Copies were made and sold in large numbers to the public.
I have loved John Wayne for as long as I can remember I don't love all his movies but I like quite alot of them, one of my oldest memories as a kid was hanging out with my parents on Saturdays and Sundays watching old movies and westerns my dad reminds me so much of John Wayne and vice versa and I would like to think my dad died just like John Wayne did, with his boots on both of them will hold a very dear place in my heart till the day I die
The Quiet Man is a fabulous movie, one of his best.
The Quiet Man was a good movie
I may look calm. But in my head, I've killed you three times.

- Josh locates likely descendants of the original Roanoke colony in England.
- Hosted by adventurer Josh Bernstein, President and CEO of the world's oldest and largest wilderness survival school.
"Adventure has a new name." Host, explorer and survival expert Josh Bernstein takes a fresh look at the world's greatest ancient mysteries and puts adventure back into history as he travels to some of the most intriguing, remote and physically challenging locations in the world. With a fresh and engaging approach to archaeology, Josh goes to extremes and takes us along for the ride.
In 1587, over 100 settlers landed in the New World to establish England's first permanent colony. Three years later, they had vanished. Investigating America's oldest missing-persons case, Josh Bernstein flies high above Roanoke Island in a powered para-glider; climbs and cores a cypress tree to study the climate conditions the settlers faced; participates in an American-Indian powwow; and learns to cook as the local 16th-century natives once did. Finally, Josh travels back to England to trace the roots of a family whose DNA suggests that at least one of the lost colonists may have survived.

Orangeburg funeral home owner Arrested for second time on tax charges
South Carolina Department of Revenue criminal investigative agents arrested the owner of an Orangeburg funeral home today on multiple charges of failing to file his state tax returns.
Robert Bethea, 54, owner of Bethea Funeral Home, was charged with six counts of failure to file individual income tax returns. He is being held at the Orangeburg/Calhoun Counties Regional Law Enforcement Center pending a bond hearing.
Bethea is accused of failing to file state income tax returns from 2000 – 2006. His state income tax liability is $26,574 for that period.
It is the second time in eight years Bethea has been charged with failing to report and pay his state taxes.

Bethea is facing up to six years in prison and fines of up to $60,000 if convicted of the new charges.

Joseph Stiglitz: The Price of Inequality
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
What happened to America, land of opportunity? In his new book, which hit the shelves yesterday, Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz takes up that burning question. Taking a long, hard look at the global specter of inequality, Stiglitz describes what causes it, why the trend endangers our future and what to do about it. Stiglitz begins by describing the broader failures of our economic system and how these failures have led to a widespread sense of unfairness and reduced opportunity for most of us. [Reprinted from The Price of Inequality by Joseph Stiglitz. Copyright © 2012 by Joseph Stiglitz. With the permission of the publisher, W.W. Norton & Company, Inc.]
The failure of markets
Markets have clearly not been working in the way that their boosters claim. Markets are supposed to be stable, but the global financial crisis showed that they could be very unstable, with devastating consequences. The bankers had taken bets that, without government assistance, would have brought them and the entire economy down. But a closer look at the system showed that this was not an accident; the bankers had incentives to behave this way.
The virtue of the market is supposed to be its efficiency. But the market obviously is not efficient. The most basic law of economics—necessary if the economy is to be efficient—is that demand equals supply. But we have a world in which there are huge unmet needs—investments to bring the poor out of poverty, to promote development in less developed countries in Africa and other continents around the world, to retrofit the global economy to face the challenges of global warming. At the same time, we have vast underutilized resources—workers and machines that are idle or are not producing up to their potential. Unemployment—the inability of the market to generate jobs for so many citizens—is the worst failure of the market, the greatest source of inefficiency, and a major cause of inequality.
As of March 2012, some 24 million Americans who would have liked a full-time job couldn't get one.
In the United States, we are throwing millions out of their homes. We have empty homes and homeless people.
But even before the crisis, the American economy had not been delivering what had been promised: although there was growth in GDP, most citizens were seeing their standards of living erode. For most American families, even before the onset of recession, incomes adjusted for inflation were lower than they had been a decade earlier. America had created a marvelous economic machine, but evidently one that worked only for those at the top.
So much at stake
This book is about why our economic system is failing for most Americans, why inequality is growing to the extent it is, and what the consequences are. The underlying thesis is that we are paying a high price for our inequality—an economic system that is less stable and less efficient, with less growth, and a democracy that has been put into peril. But even more is at stake: as our economic system is seen to fail for most citizens, and as our political system seems to be captured by moneyed interests, confidence in our democracy and in our market economy will erode along with our global influence. As the reality sinks in that we are no longer a country of opportunity and that even our long-vaunted rule of law and system of justice have been compromised, even our sense of national identity may be put into jeopardy.
In some countries the Occupy Wall Street movement has become closely allied with the antiglobalization movement. They do have some things in common: a belief not only that something is wrong but also that change is possible. The problem, however, is not that globalization is bad or wrong but that governments are managing it so poorly—largely for the benefit of special interests. The interconnectedness of peoples, countries, and economies around the globe is a development that can be used as effectively to promote prosperity as to spread greed and misery. The same is true for the market economy: the power of markets is enormous, but they have no inherent moral character. We have to decide how to manage them. At their best, markets have played a central role in the stunning increases in productivity and standards of living in the past two hundred years—increases that far exceeded those of the previous two millennia.

BECKHAM BONANZA: The David Beckham for Armani campaign doesn't launch in the U.K. until March, but already it's causing a stir among London fans. Selfridges witnessed a 50 percent leap in sales of Armani white men's briefs after the British press reported Beckham would be the new face, or rather body, of Emporio Armani underwear. Sales of the entire Emporio Armani underwear line rose on average by 30 percent across the range, the store said. "David Beckham is a global style icon, appealing equally to men and women. Where he goes, fashion is bound to follow," said David Walker-Smith, menswear director at Selfridges. The briefs retail for £16, or $32.
COLD FRONT: It looks like Karl Lagerfeld will be "Russian" come next December. The designer, who showed Chanel's latest "metiers d'art" collection in London last week, is eyeing the land of caviar and vodka for next year's show. After all, house founder Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel famously showed a Russian collection in 1922, for one.
DIAMOND MAN: Who needs Santa when Graff comes to town? To usher in the holidays and high season, the British jeweler flew in two mega-necklaces totaling $15 million from London for its mid-December cocktail reception for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's 17th annual Discovery Ball next month. "In case anyone forgot, we wanted to show them who's boss," said president and chief executive officer Henri Barguirdjian in reference to a white diamond necklace sporting a 30-carat pink briolette and another featuring three strands laden with white diamonds and 1,000 (yes, that's correct) carats of rubies. Guests including ball chairmen Michele and Howard Kessler, Bridget Koch, Petra Levin and Ellen Jaffe also were first to view the firm's grand auction donation, a white gold and diamond bracelet retailing for $50,000. While Graff has had recent store openings in Tokyo and Hong Kong, as well as a shop-in-shop at Saks Fifth Avenue in Greenwich, Conn. — and a 5,600-square-foot flagship on Madison and 63rd Street in New York and a Geneva boutique are due in 2008 — Barguirdjian said Florida remains a focus. "So many of our New York and Chicago clients have second homes here, whether near our Palm Beach or Bal Harbour locations, so the market is very important during the season," he said.
BELLA ROMA: Forget emperor's busts and stone columns: Larry Gagosian is bringing a whiff of modernity to Rome with a new 8,000-square-foot art gallery that opens on Saturday and will be feted with a "vernissage," followed by dinner for 400 at the newly refurbished Palazzo Barberini. Guests expected include a mix of artists and Roman socialites. The gallery's first exhibition is devoted to Cy Twombly and the gallery's curator is 35-year-old Pepi Marchetti Franchi, who previously worked at the Guggenheim in New York.
SING SONG: Ludivine Sagnier, Audrey Marnay, Sara Forestier and rising actress Constance Rousseau cooed over the dragonfly-embellished boots and ladybug brooches on display at Miu Miu's Paris flagship Wednesday night as part of a preview of the brand's spring collection. Actress Sagnier disclosed she's been busy recording her first album. "All will be revealed by the ready-to-wear collections," she said, adding she's hoping to find a good book under her Christmas tree. Meanwhile, Forestier said she'll be off to Israel this spring to start work on a movie by Haim Bouzaglo about the creation of Israel. "I'm to play a Polish Jew; it's going to be quite a profound experience," she mused.

Seven teenagers were injured as a result of a a pick up crash in Ontario County Tuesday. The truck they were in lost control and rolled several times on Pond Road in the town of Bloomfield. Four passengers remain hospitalized.
They include 17-year old Jessica Henry and Joelle Henry, and 13-year old Meagan Henry. All are in guarded condition. Fifteen-year old Haley Dewey is in satisfactory condition.
It was a chaotic scene for rescue personnel, tending to the injured, after a pickup truck rolled over on Pond Road in East Bloomfield. Seven teens were in the truck. Four of them thrown from it, during the crash.
"Based on the fact that we had so many people thrown from the vehicle that they were probably not all seatbelted in," said Investigator Gregory Shaffer of the Ontario County Sheriff's Office.
Investigators have spoken with the driver, 19-year-old Alexander Brown. They quickly determined alcohol or drugs were not factors.
Reconstruction teams did draw one conclusion.
"It does appear speed was in fact at least one contributing factor to the accident," said Shaffer.
It is a sharp curve on Pond Road with a posted advisory speed limit. Authorities say Brown lost control of his pickup truck rounding that curve. It then rolled several times.
Six of the seven attend Bloomfield schools. All are from the small Ontario County town.
Brown and two passengers were treated for minor injuries and released. The four thrown from the vehicle were hurt more seriously.
Shaffer says it hasn't been determined who was and who wasn't wearing a seatbelt, but wearing one surely makes a difference.
"This vehicle was damaged extensively, but the interior of the vehicle was pretty much intact, so the safest place to be is inside, strapped in," Shaffer said.
So far, no tickets have been issued. Investigators hope to speak with more of the passengers as they recover from their injuries.
"Very dangerous operating a motor vehicle on these country roads. Unfortunately we do have a lot of serious accidents."

A little philosophy with Martin Scorsese
WTOP's Bob Madigan reports.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Filmmaker Martin Scorsese is being honored by one of Washington's cultural institutions.
On Monday night, the Academy Award winning film director delivered the 2013 Jefferson Lecture in the Humanities for the National Endowment for the Humanities. He spoke at the Kennedy Center.
Scorsese is the first filmmaker to deliver the Jefferson Lecture. It is considered the federal government's most prestigious honor for intellectual achievement in the humanities. Past speakers include John Updike, Barbara Tuchman and Arthur Miller.
Scorsese has produced or directed about 50 films, including "Mean Streets," ''Goodfellas" and "The Departed." He is also a champion of film preservation and education.
In 2007, Scorsese was awarded the Kennedy Center Honors.

WASHINGTON - The Anne Arundel County Police department is seeking help finding a critically missing person.
Randall "randy" Larsen left his Edgewater, Md. home on Jan. 6, 2013 and hasn't returned. On Jan. 11, he was reported missing.
He may be despondent over a recent death in his family.
When he left his home on the 3600 block of 1st Avenue in Edgewater he had a sleeping bag and camping gear. It's possible he's in the Selby Beach or Coxby Estates area of Edgewater.
Flynt is described as a white man, age 55. He is 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 165 pounds with blue eyes and dirty blonde hair.
Anyone with information on Flynt's whereabouts should contact Detective Sgt. Keith Clark with the Anne Arundel County Police Department's Missing Person's Unit by calling 410-222-8610 or 410-222-3456.

Bader passionate for horses and hats
Carol Bader first fell in love with horse racing when she watched Secretariat run as a little girl.
Today, she's best known for creating hats and fascinators that marry her equine passion with designs sought by women all over the world.
The Del Mar Hat Co. owner is thrilled to see events like The Voice-Tribune's Fascinator & Fedora contest. "I'm so behind the Breeders' Cup. Other people create the event – we just have to dress it."
So what's in for fall? The fashionista says wine, plum, eggplant, and cobalt hues are popular, in addition to "very strong reds. And houndstooth pattern, teals, turquoises. But I'm making a lot of red."
Regardless of the color or style you choose to don, Bader suggests making sure it feels "organic … and inherent. In a way, there's a little bit of drama to either (a fascinator or fedora). It is a little bit of costuming in a way," she said. "But I think what ever you do, it should come natural to that person."
See more of Carol Bader's designs at www.delmarhat.com.

Student Employment
A. All employees being hired into a benefited staff position have a 90 day waiting period before being eligible to enroll. New Faculty and RD's are the only class of employees without a waiting period and are eligible upon the date of hire. Employees who do not enroll in insurance when they become eligible must wait until the next open enrollment to add new coverage.
A. Employees reaching the end of their waiting period will be invited to a benefit meeting by e-mail the same month they become eligible.
A. No. The waiting period is for all new employees with this employment classification.
A. Yes, because a waiver of insurance and benefits is necessary to have in each employee personnel file when applicable.
A. When an employee terminates his/her employment with Liberty, Human Resources will cancel all of the individual's insurance and benefits and notify vendors of termination. Any formal notices of cancellation will be sent directly to the individual from the vendor. Health insurance will be cancelled effective the last day of the month in which the employee terminates. A COBRA notice will be sent by Ceredian to the employee to provide the option of continuing health insurance at the full cost.
A. When a qualifying event such as a dependent losing other coverage, marriage, or the birth of a child occurs, employees may make changes to their existing health insurance coverage. Employees not currently enrolled in Liberty's group health insurance may elect to enroll if the employee themselves loses other coverage. Without a qualifying event, you must wait until open enrollment which takes place each June and is effective on July 1st.
A. Employees may stop the Christmas Club at anytime by submitting a P-1 to cancel their payroll deductions. Human Resources will provide a letter for the employee to take to Carter Bank to close the account and receive the funds contributed to date. No interest will be paid on Christmas Club Accounts that are withdrawn early and the employee may not participate again until the following year.
A. Benefited employees are eligible to take sick/personal time after 90 days and vacation time after 6 months of being hired or becoming benefited if the benefited date is later than the hire date.
A. If an employee will be out of work for medical reasons for a period of time greater than 7 days, their department needs to submit a P-1 for a medical or maternity leave of absence. If the employee has disability insurance with Hartford, the claim needs to be reported using the instructions found on the Human Resources website under Commonly Requested Forms and Hartford Life and Disability Telephonic Claim Form. When the employee returns to work, the department needs to submit another P-1 to end their leave along with a doctor's note releasing them to work. If maternity leave is going to extend beyond the time that the doctor has released the employee to work, the department and HR needs to be notified to determine whether this falls under FMLA protected leave.
A. There is a 6 month waiting period from date of hire before you are eligible to use the education benefit.
A. The education policy and forms can be found on the Human Resource site, under the Commonly Requested Forms section. Then scroll down to the Education Benefits to locate the policies and forms.
A. The Dependent Grant-In-Aid form is submitted once a year in April to cover the aid for the following year. (forms were submitted in April 2009 to cover Fall 09/Spring 10/Summer 10) You may submit a late form for processing. If you are newly married, you will need to submit a copy of your marriage license with your form.
Continuing Education forms are submitted for each course you take. These forms must be submitted to HR three weeks prior to your financial check-in deadline. Since your form requires your supervisors signature and the Registrar's signature before coming to HR, you should submit your forms at least 2 weeks prior to the HR deadline to assure it will reach us in time. No late forms will be accepted. The deadlines will be posted at the HR front desk each semester, or they can be found on the Commonly Requested Forms page, under the Education Benefits.
A. You are allowed to take 18 credit hours per year.
A. Once your supervisor and the registrar have signed your form, it will be sent to Human Resources. After it is processed and approved in Human Resources, you will receive an email stating that your form has been approved and sent to Financial Aid for further processing. At this time, you may request a copy of your approved form for your records.
A. Your aid can only be posted if all of your requirements have been met. If you are in an undergraduate program, you must have completed the FAFSA and the VTAG. If you were selected for verification, you must provide specific documentation before your aid can be posted. You must also be registered for courses in order for your aid to post. If all of these things have been done, you should take a copy of your approved CE form to the Student Service Center for assistance. They are located near the indoor track at Campus North. Their phone number is 592-5100.
A. Graduate students are not required to submit FAFSA or VTAG applications. If you are under a qualifying graduate degree, Financial Aid will contact you to submit VTAG upon receipt of your CE form. You must be registered for courses in order for your aid to post. If your aid is not showing on your ASIST account, you can take a copy of your approved CE form to the Student Service Center for assistance. They are located near the indoor track at Campus North. Their phone number is 592-5100.
A. NO, an international student enrolled in a full-time educational program is only allowed to work up to 18 hours per week.
A. According to US Citizenship and Immigration Services regulations, an International student is allowed to work 40 hours per week during any school sponsored vacation.
A. No, the semester end date will be on the last day of the week and not when the student completes his/her final exams.
A. An international student will be able to work up to 40 hours per week during spring break, summer break, Thanksgiving Break and Christmas Break. Because Easter holiday falls on a Monday, and is only one day, the 18 hours per week will apply in this situation.
A. The two forms needed to apply for student employment at Liberty University may be found online at www.liberty.edu/jobs under the "Employment Opportunities" link in the left-hand column, then Student Openings. The two forms you must complete are the Background and Reference Investigation form and the Student Application. You do not necessarily have to indicate a position for which you are applying. Applications that do not have the background form attached will be considered incomplete and not processed.
A. Once you have submitted your student application and background form to Human Resources, please allow 7-10 days for processing and approval. We do not notify the students of their approval, since the volume is so high for student applications. Students are responsible for locating their own employment. Students can then search for employment by reviewing the available student positions located www.liberty.edu/jobs Employment Opportunities/Student Openings and contacting any department of interest.
A. The student job openings are posted at www.liberty.edu/jobs. Click on Employment Opportunities, then Student Openings.
A. Work Study is determined by the FAFSA, which every student is required to complete. The eligibility is determined by the estimated family contribution. If you are eligible for work study, you should have received an award letter stating such. If you are eligible for work study, the award and the amount is posted on your ASIST account.
A. Students may apply for as many positions as desired. If you indicated a particular position on your application and change your mind, it's permissible to still contact other departments that were not indicated on your application. Only submit one student application, please.
A. Students may work in only ONE student position at a time.
A. Human Resources does not send student applications to individual departments. All approved student applications are available for review and are posted in a data base accessible to all supervisors. The supervisor may print any application that may be of interest to them.
A. If a supervisor is searching for a student who has the skills and schedule desired for the open position, the student is contacted for an interview. Students are encouraged to contact departments themselves to search for an open position. At that time, the student lets the department know that they have completed a student application and background form and their application is available for review. If the department is interested, the supervisor will retrieve the application from the database for review and setup the interview.
A. Once you are hired, your supervisor will give you instructions for the Student New Hire Process. This information is also located on our website. Each student must have a student application, hiring paperwork from the supervisor and a completed Student New Hire Packet before starting employment.

Comments about Shock Doctor Knee Support with Dual Hinges:
I got this for a MCL tear from mma/Bjj. It offers good support. I feel its a little to bulky for training ( except boxing) It ables me to work without without aggravating my existing injury. I measured 13.5" at bottom according to size chart I should be a medium. I ordered a large as from info from other reviews and it is a firm fit. Especially if you feel you will be wearing it for a length of time. Look at the model down if you have partial mobility/stability. As I think that may be little more forgiving for training in.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
