Do you accept late submissions?
As noted above, if submitting through Withoutabox, you have access to extended deadlines that fall one week after our standard deadlines. Once the Late WAB Deadlines have passed, we deal with late submission requests on a case-by-case basis.
Where can I read the fine print?
All of our official regulations can be found in these two PDFs:
International Films – Narrative Features, Nonfiction Features and Shorts
Canadian Films – Narrative Features, Nonfiction Features and Shorts
What preview formats do you accept?
We accept both DVDs and online screeners (password protected Vimeo link, etc.) for previewing purposes. NTSC or Region 1 DVDs are the preferred format. While we can also accept PAL, we do not accept data discs. Indicate formatting on the DVD and be sure to test the disc before submitting. In order to save you postage and us storage space, we recommend mailing your DVD in a small jewel case or paper sleeve.
- Mailing a DVD for a mail-in entry: Complete the appropriate entry form, including full payment and contact information. Enclose the DVD with your entry form.
- Mailing a DVD for a Withoutabox entry: Once you've paid your entry fee through WAB, mail us a DVD screener clearly marked with your individual WAB tracking number.
- Submitting an online screener for a mail-in entry: Complete the appropriate mail-in entry form, including full payment and contact information. There is a designated area on the first page to provide your screener link information.
- Submitting an online screener for a Withoutabox entry: When submitting your film through WAB, you can make use of WAB's own online screener option if you are submitting a Canadian Narrative/Nonfiction Feature, Canadian Short Film or International Short Film. At this time, we do not accept WAB online screeners for International Narrative/Nonfiction features.
You are welcome to use the "Cover Letter" portion of your WAB entry to provide us with an alternate secure online link (Vimeo, etc.) and password. You may also want to email us at email@example.com with this information, providing your film title and WAB tracking number in the subject line and your alternate online link and password in the body of the email.
What formats does VIFF screen during the festival?
DCP, HDCam, 35 mm and 16 mm. Select venues will also have 3D capability.
Does my film need to be a premiere?
No. However, films submitted must be Vancouver premieres. They must not have been broadcast (television or internet), distributed on DVD/VOD or screened either at another festival or commercially (i.e. an advertised public screening at which an admission was charged, excluding film school graduation screenings) in the Vancouver area. Please carefully review the regulations for both Canadian and International submissions. Email us at email@example.com should you require any clarification.
Can I submit a work-in-progress?
While we are willing to watch "rough cuts," we strongly recommend that you submit your film in the most polished form possible. Due to the high volume of submissions we receive every year, we are rarely able to preview multiple versions of a single film. We ask that you address any rough cut issues (scratch music, etc.) with your film in the fields available on the WAB site or in a separate document accompanying your mail-in entry form. You should also advise us of the exact date you expect the film to be fully completed.
How many films can I submit?
You are free to submit as many films as you wish. However, each submission must have its own completed entry form, entry fee, etc. Please do not put multiple projects on the same DVD.
When is a short film not short enough?
When it's over 20 minutes long. At least that's our definition. Enforcing this maximum running time for International and Canadian short films allows our programmers greater flexibility when curating diverse, thematically unified programs.
Can I send you press/publicity materials related to my film?
There are specific press/publicity materials that will be requested from you (hi-res photos, press kit, etc.) if your film is accepted to play VIFF. You are welcome to send any materials you deem important with your submission. However, all we consider essential is a quality film and detailed production and contact information. Again, please ensure that you include everything requested on the WAB site and/or mail-in entry form. Also, please note that any additional material you may include with your submission will not be returned to you. Take this into consideration.
Will VIFF confirm receipt of my submission?
If you have submitted through Withoutabox, you can check the status of your film, which we actively update. If you have sent in a WAB submission and your status has not been updated from "Submitted" to "In Consideration" after several weeks, please write to email@example.com. It's possible that there is information missing from your entry.
Due to the high volume of mail-in submissions we receive, we unfortunately do not have the resources to send confirmations to filmmakers who use this method.
Will you return my DVD?
Due to increased mailing costs, we do not return DVDs that have been submitted to us. They remain in our secure archives.
Who watches my submission?
Submissions to VIFF are reviewed by year-round programming staff, seasonal programmers and screening committees made up of film critics, filmmakers and other film-literate individuals.
When will I be notified of VIFF's decision?
You will be advised of our decision by email no later than September 3, 2014. Please do not call our office asking about the status of your submission.
Will I receive feedback if my film isn't selected?
As a general rule: no. With thousands of submissions every year, we don't have the ability to offer notes to each individual filmmaker.
What is the VIFF Industry Conference?
Entering its 29th year, the VIFF Industry Conference is the premier media conference in Western Canada. This year, it takes place October 1-4, 2014, during the heart of the Vancouver International Film Festival. The Conference offers professional development sessions, one-on-one meetings and networking receptions for established and emerging film, television and new media professionals.
The 2013 Conference hosted over 1,000 delegates and included sessions with such creative heavyweights as Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad), Damon Lindelof (Lost), Walter Murch (editor of The Godfather) and Terry Rossio (The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise). Meanwhile, industry leaders such as Kickstarter's Elisabeth Holm shared insights on how creators could launch new projects.

Expanding Logarithms - Problem 1
Expanding logarithms. So what we do when we expand logarithms is using the properties of logs that we know, we can try to rewrite a log in terms of as many simple logs as possible.
When we do that, what we have here is a log with three components inside of it. We have a number, and an x and a z. There's numbers of ways of tackling this. What I sort of do is I first say, okay, what we have is a quotient. We have a numerator and a denominator, whenever we're dividing inside our logarithms that comes out subtraction, so we can rewrite this as log base 5 of 25, x² minus log base 5 square root of z.
What we can do now is looking at this 25x². Common mistake that people want to do is to take this 2 out right now, because of the power rule we can take the exponent and bring it outside, but the thing you have to remember the 2 is not associated with this 25, so what we're really doing is we're multiplying the 25 and the x². We need to split this up using the product rule. Splitting this up, log base 5 of 25 plus log base 5, x², so we're multiplying we could split up as addition and we still have this z term over here, log base 5 root z.
Now we still can go further. Log base 5 of 25, 5 to what power is 25, we know that this is 2. By the power rule we have x to a power that can come out in front, so 2 log 5 of x. And lastly with the z. We have the square root of z but if you remember square root is just to the power of ½, so we can take our ½ out in front, ½ log base 5 of z.
Using the various rules that we know of logarithms, namely the product rule, the quotient rule and the power rule, we were able to rewrite this very complicated log in terms of a series of much more simple logs. And just what you'll end up noticing the much more you do this, is the terms that were in the numerator are going to end up being positive, so here we had the 25 and the x², the 2 turned positive, the x term turned positive and we had the z in the denominator, that was negative.
So it's always a good way to check your work, check your signs, make sure they match up, numerator and denominator, positive, negative.

Linear algebra
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between speed and velocity? Ever try to visualize in four dimensions or six or seven? Linear algebra describes things in two dimensions, but many of the concepts can be extended into three, four or more. Linear algebra implies two dimensional reasoning, however, the concepts covered in linear algebra provide the basis for multi-dimensional representations of mathematical reasoning. Matrices, vectors, vector spaces, transformations, eigenvectors/values all help us to visualize and understand multi dimensional concepts. This is an advanced course normally taken by science or engineering majors after taking at least two semesters of calculus (although calculus really isn't a prereq) so don't confuse this with regular high school algebra.
Vectors and spaces
Let's get our feet wet by thinking in terms of vectors and spaces.
Matrix transformations
Understanding how we can map one set of vectors to another set. Matrices used to define linear transformations.
Alternate coordinate systems (bases)
We explore creating and moving between various coordinate systems.
Matrix transformations
Understanding how we can map one set of vectors to another set. Matrices used to define linear transformations.
All content in "Matrix transformations"
Functions and linear transformations
People have been telling you forever that linear algebra and matrices are useful for modeling, simulations and computer graphics, but it has been a little non-obvious. This tutorial will start to draw the lines by re-introducing you functions (a bit more rigor than you may remember from high school) and linear functions/transformations in particular.
- A more formal understanding of functions
- Vector transformations
- Linear transformations
- Matrix vector products as linear transformations
- Linear transformations as matrix vector products
- Image of a subset under a transformation
- im(T): Image of a transformation
- Preimage of a set
- Preimage and kernel example
- Sums and scalar multiples of linear transformations
- More on matrix addition and scalar multiplication
Linear transformation examples
In this tutorial, we do several examples of actually constructing transformation matrices. Very useful if you've got some actual transforming to do (especially scaling, rotating and projecting) ;)
Transformations and matrix multiplication
You probably remember how to multiply matrices from high school, but didn't know why or what it represented. This tutorial will address this. You'll see that multiplying two matrices can be view as the composition of linear transformations.
Inverse functions and transformations
You can use a transformation/function to map from one set to another, but can you invert it? In other words, is there a function/transformation that given the output of the original mapping, can output the original input (this is much clearer with diagrams). This tutorial addresses this question in a linear algebra context. Since matrices can represent linear transformations, we're going to spend a lot of time thinking about matrices that represent the inverse transformation.
- Introduction to the inverse of a function
- Proof: Invertibility implies a unique solution to f(x)=y
- Surjective (onto) and injective (one-to-one) functions
- Relating invertibility to being onto and one-to-one
- Determining whether a transformation is onto
- Exploring the solution set of Ax = b
- Matrix condition for one-to-one trans
- Simplifying conditions for invertibility
- Showing that inverses are linear
Finding inverses and determinants
We've talked a lot about inverse transformations abstractly in the last tutorial. Now, we're ready to actually compute inverses. We start from "documenting" the row operations to get a matrix into reduced row echelon form and use this to come up with the formula for the inverse of a 2x2 matrix. After this we define a determinant for 2x2, 3x3 and nxn matrices.
More determinant depth
In the last tutorial on matrix inverses, we first defined what a determinant is and gave several examples of computing them. In this tutorial we go deeper. We will explore what happens to the determinant under several circumstances and conceptualize it in several ways.
Transpose of a matrix
We now explore what happens when you switch the rows and columns of a matrix!

The 9th International Terrine Event kicked off in our garden at 1:00 on theSaturday of the long weekend in Canada, Aug. 4. Each participant created aterrine, galantine, ballotine etc., of their choice and paired wines they thought would complement the food. This year, it divided equally between white and red wine courses.
First up was a salmon and scallop mousse, simple elegant and tasty, served with sea asparagus.
2003 Hochar Rosé made at Ch. Musar, this wine had a light garnet colour, that is a light red/orange, not pink. Slight spice in a rather pinot-like nose that later began to show raspberry. Clean, pleasant.
1999 Ch. Musar Blanc made from two native varietals, Obaideh and Merwah, the owner really fancies this wine, even above his reds. Fair bit of amber, a nice lemon custard nose, lacking the oxidized notes one often sees in these wines, still bright on palate and generally successful, although I wouldnt wait any more on this one.
Next terrine was a crab terrine Antillaise a delicate crab and whitefish terrine that went very well with the wines, served with a rosette of cucumber and a nice spot of red pepper:
2010 Clotilde Davenne St. Bris the first of two sauvignon blanc based wines, obvious in this case as there was a typical grassiness to the nose, with a slight sweetness, the wine soft and spicy yet with decent terminal acidity.
2010 Calibourdin Le Cris Pouilly Fume less grass here, and more elegant, this had a richer mouth feel and was a classier wine with a soft finish, with very slight sweetness.
The third terrine was created by yours truly. It was a chicken terrine, given added textural and visual attraction with pistachios and four ham strips, and a fair bit of herbal content fresh tarragon, thyme, marjoram and basil from the garden as well as a good hit of quatre epices (in this case,allspice, pepper, nutmeg, cloves and ginger), and down the centre was a generous core of foie gras about 350 grams worth, reshaped into a long cylinder, the whole wrapped in bacon and cooked in a bain marie. Accompaniments were a herb salad collected from my garden, with chives, lemon verbena,parsley, dill, tarragon, marjoram, savoury and mint, dressed simply with agood spicy EVOO with sherry wine vinegar, a grape and gherkin faux grape bunch, and a trio two tomatos stuffed with horseradish/sour cream toppedwith basil and a cube of seedless watermelon dotted with balsamic vinegar.
2001 Willm Gewurztraminer Kirchberg de Barr Clos Gaensbronnel this won the prize for longest wine name, but it was also very, very good. A floral spicy nose, correct for Gewurz, but not really crying out Gewurz the way some do, and excellent concentration in the mouth, rich and slightly off dry,with very good length. Oddly, it seemed to be slightly low in terminal acidity, yet it somehow managed to achieve very good balance despite that.
2001 Max Ferd. Richter Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese I chose this becauseI wanted to compare a wine with significant RS to one with less. Typical varietal petrol nose with peach hints, lush and with excellent weight and length. I went back and forth on these two and had a hard time deciding whichI preferred. Both delighted me.
Wild boar terrine was up next and I have to compliment the chef on his cooking acumen. Precisely the correct amount of barding with fat of precisely the right size, gave an impeccable texture, something that often escapes terrine cooks. The thyme/Serrano peach compote was killer and the currant biscuit a nice touch.
2003 Feudi San Gregorio Serpico Aglianico I was in no doubt about whichwine presented with this course was a clear winner it was the next wine after this! This wine was dark and had a concentrated dark fruit nose, slightly ripe, ample soft tannin and lots of acidity. It would satisfy many people, but the consensus here was that it was a tad simple and unrefined. Maybe it was in the context of the next wine poured with it.
2001 Brolio Chianti Classico Riserva also fairly dark in colour with anexcellent varietal nose with herbs and berries, and a cherry overlay. The fruit on palate was juicy and the tannins and acids were perfectly balanced, giving an absolutely delightful wine, a Chianti at peak with years to go yet, offering the elegance and complexity that was lacking in the Serpico.
Moose terrine with huckleberry and pomegranate this was a bit solid after the previous offerings, but tasty with the wine.
2004 Alonso del Yerro Ribera del Duero dark wine with a nicely spiced vanilla and cassis nose, mellow in the mouth with very good fruit levels soft tannin and a long smooth finish. No rush on this one.
The final food offering of the main stream terrines was a spicy lamb galantine (we had some discussion as to whether galantine of ballotine was the correct term, as it wasnt poached in the skin of an animal, but thats apretty fine point). Served with Madeira aspic, and a carrot and saffron terrine beside it that for me was a star of this course.
2000 Ch. Cantemerle this wine was surprisingly mature, showing a classic herbal claret nose, a soft low acid middle, and mild tannins. Drink soon.
1997 Ch. Musar fun to have this wine after the starting two. Cab sauv, carignan and cinsault, this had an understandably Rhonish bent to the nose,was slightly warm with some nice spice in the finish. Almost Burgundian inover all weight and impression.
We finished off with a dessert terrine of raspberry, white chocolate and blackberry that was visually attractive as well as a gustatory triumph.
After all the rest left, the couple that were staying with us shared some other wines into the evening, still in the garden, and Ill append those notes even though they werent wines shared by all. By the time I took thelast note, I couldnt really see the paper and was writing by feel!
1995 Ch. Lanessan I pulled this Medoc in anticipation of the next wine,which had been the unneeded back up for the Cantemerle. Warm nose with cocoa, and more cocoa at the end, tasty, ready and pretty well balanced, but lacking the intensity and complexity one might wish.
1995 Malescot St. Exupery this Medoc showed excellent smooth aromas on the nose with cedar and vanilla, a good balance and length, and better fruit intensity in midpalate and at the end. No rush.
I decided that we still needed another bottle (this was over several hours while appreciating the dusk) but was in the end indecisive and brought not one but two, served blind.
1995 Ch. dAngludet lacking the same level of concentration of fruit as the Malescot, but nonetheless pretty satisfying, with a slightly funky nose that quickly switched to pure dark fruit with some spice, good up frontfruit in the mouth, soft tannin, medium length with a nice sweetness, perhaps a slight hollow spot in the middle but that seemed to improve as the wine aired.
1995 Ch. Haut Marbuzet - a nice pleasant custardy vanilla and cassis nose,sweet and smooth on palate with a nice sweet fruit impression in the finish, which was medium long. Good concentration. This and the Malescot were the nicest wines we had after the food event.

Once Upon a Time Review: No One Is Safeby Christine Orlando at . Comments
Let the money change hands and the mourning begin.
"The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" finally revealed that, as many fans had wagered, Sheriff Graham was the Huntsman from Snow White. And just when I was sold on the chemistry between him and Emma, the Queen stole him back the only way she could.
I love Once Upon a Time because it's like a mini-movie every week and I'm completely enthralled by this intriguing other world filled with characters that feel familiar yet completely new.
One kiss with Emma and Graham is more than just enchanted, he's spellbound. Memories of his fairytale life come flooding back, including his spirit guide. It's the same wolf that ran Emma off the road to keep her in Storybrooke.
Before you know it, Graham is spiraling out of control with strange memories, the type that lead him to Mary Margaret and then Henry, who is the only one who doesn't think he's delusional.
As the story unfolds, we find out the reason Graham is with Regina but feels nothing is because - as the Evil Queen - she ripped out his heart Indiana Jones-style and holds it hostage. The best part about Graham's search for his missing heart is that it leads to his breakup with Regina where he tells her that feeling nothing is better than being with her. Oh, you know that's not going to go over well.
Then, Regina provokes a fight with Emma over her man. Calling it a cat fight is underestimating these two women. They're more like tigers. The power radiates off of both of them. Someday it'll be fun to see a brawl between them that doesn't get cut short.
The end is heartbreaking. Graham tenderly ministers to Emma's wounds as Regina stalks down her secret passageway to her lair... where a heart awaits her vice-like grip. The final scene proves two things: Emma's walls can't protect her heart from being broken - and Regina is definitely an evil witch.
Other questions I'm left with:
- What type of gardening was Mr. Gold doing in the forest?
- What secret did Snow White spill that led the Evil Queen to want her dead?
- Is there a reason why the wolf has one red and and one black?
I can't believe we have to wait until January to see the rest of Snow and Charming's love story or find out if Emma suspects Regina's involvement in Graham's death. As much as I love the holidays, I'll be counting the days until this fascinating fairy tale returns.

I just got started with this show and I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate that Sheriff died! WTF!!!! I haaaaate it soooooo muuuuuuuuch!
I really loved the first few episodes, but Emma has become too cocky and macho acting for me... Just wondering if anyone else feels the same?
Why do they always kill a character that the audience begins to fall in love with ? There was Boone on Lost, Nick on The Secret Circle and now Graham.
I'm so sad but I hope to see Jamie Dornan angain (he a great job on this episode) since there's also a huntsman on The Red Riding Hood story.
Much better than last episode. Dornan was great this episode. I see no chemistry between the Sheriff and the Mayor or Emma.
so let me first just say I started watching this series two days ago on hulu and I am already completely caught up and completely addicted! I dont understand why everyone didnt believe regina knew who she was. except for her reading the book once she acquired it from henry she has as always hinted that she knew. PLUS in the opening they say one knows the truth while regina is looking in the mirror. I think that she read the book so confused because as they say there are always two sides to every story and I think that the book was obviously written by the good side which is why she was reading it with confusion. as for the huntsman, no way he is dead, I think it will be a cop-out (thank god because I am in love with him) and he will just have heart problems and be rushed to the hospital and be fine. there is a reason this episode was before the month long hiatus you have to have something HUGE that will make sure everyone will come back in january and watch it. and if they did kill him off. well f u he is too hot to leave the show
Love but HATE this epi cos Graham died! I really dont think he'll be back and that the IMDB listing may just be involving him in flashbacks though. Not the actual real story. Sigh. I absolutely HATE it when they kill off major characters like this just for shocking value. And i HATE that the show (altho captivating) is moving so slow, it's like we move one step forward and then TEN steps backward. A character will have some revealing moments, (read : charming waking up, graham remembering) and then the Queen ALWAYS wins the upperhand! It's like come on, gimme a break already, can the writers just let the "good guys" win SOMETHING?? It's So frustrating!
Hmm, here is a thought. Graham was crying when he remembered and kissed Emma...so he could feel again. Maybe he recovered his heart from the Queen somehow - just in time? Also, a few people have mentioned his tie to red riding hood, and I agree there should be some kind of link. Is the original huntsman raised by wolves? It just seems like they put that in his background for a reason.
From what we've seen in Fairytale Land, those that die *there* cannot be resurrected in any form. As proof, I sumbit the example of 1) the real Prince James, skewered unexpectedly during a demonstration; 2) The Blue Fairy told Jiminy Cricket that she could not undo what happened to Geppetto's parents; 3) Cinderella's godmother was snuffed out by that wand, and 4) EQ (Evil Queen) could not just have her dad's body walking around without a heart, a la the Hunstman. Some things are final in Fairytale Land. BUT...we know Graham had a real heart in the "real" world because Emma felt it beating. That plastic thing wasn't his real heart. Regina's dark magic is faltering, which is the whole reason the clock is moving forward, and Emma's presence is changing things. Still, I think advertising his death would be seen as a cheat if he really didn't die. Maybe Graham dies. But, in the end, the Huntsman will live happily ever after...with Emma!
Great review! Conveyed the heavy sense of foreboding of this latest episode very well. I'm disappointed that the sheriff didn't question Mr. Gold more about what the heck he was doing "gardening" in the middle of the woods. I guess he had other things on his mind at the time. Disappointed too that we'll have to wait a little while to have some more answers. Observation: Regina-as-evil-queen has the most perfectly delicious evil sneer when she speaks. Not everyone can pull that off so charismatically.
You guys got me all hopeful now that you wrote you though Mr. Gold was burying his real heart!!! Oh man, I feel like I don't know the show well enough to have my hopes this high, and with the writers being the same as LOST they had no problem killing off characters. :(

DURANT, OK -- Traffic was backed up for a time in Durant as people lined up Thursday morning to get a free flu shot.
Folks started showing up at 7:30 a.m. to receive flu shots at the Bryan County Fairgrounds, even though the doors didn't open until 9.
Free vaccinations were given out until 4 p.m., and folks didn't even have to get out of their cars to get one. There was even an express lane for people who already had their paperwork filled out. Workers say that this year's turnout was larger than ever.
If you live in Bryan County and didn't get a vaccination, you can still receive a shot at the Bryan County Health Department during normal business hours.

An indigenous tribe in the Kuna Yala Islands of Panama has found itself literally in the middle of a multi-billion dollar drug trafficking route.
The Kuna people earn their living mainly by farming and fishing off the Caribbean islands, as they have done for centuries.
But after smugglers in vessels commonly throw out blocks of cocaine into the waters as they try to evade capture, the stashes are often found by Kuna tribesmen who then sell them for huge profits.
Authorities say they have seen grave changes in Kuna's ways of life as a result of the cocaine influx.
Camilo Hackins, a local Kuna chief, told Al Jazeera: "Money from the illegal trade is a disease and we do not have a cure for it, it is threatening harmony for us, people want to get a lot of money and do little work."
Monica Villamizar reports from Panama.

We Need Another Homebuyer Tax Credit, Poll Says
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The U.S. needs another round of homebuyer tax credits to help stimulate the housing market and the economy, according to readers of TheStreet.
It's no secret the U.S. housing market has been under tremendous pressure for some time, and demand fell further after the springtime expiration of federal tax credits for homebuyers. Most analysts agree the situation is likely to get worse before it gets better.
We asked our readers if another round of homebuyer tax credits would help or hurt the economy. TheStreet overwhelmingly agreed that yes, another homebuyer tax credit would benefit the housing market and the entire economy. Out of 207 votes, 62.3% respondents voted yes while 37.7% vote no, viewing another tax credit as simply barking up the wrong tree.
The housing market saw sales ramp up in March and April as consumers rushed to take advantage of tax credits that offered as much as $8,000 for first-time homebuyers and $6,500 for repeat buyers. Following the expiration of those credits on April 30, the market saw a dramatic decline in demand for the month of May that spilled over into June. Data for July is expected to show a further drop in demand. Lawmakers later extended the deadline to close on a home purchase and still qualify for the tax credit to Sept. 30.>>4 Top Homebuilder Stocks: Life After the Tax Credit The rush of homebuyers looking to take advantage of federal tax credits helped homebuilders like D.R. Horton (DHI) and M.D.C. Holdings (MDC) grow new home sales by strong double-digit percentages last quarter, primarily because the two homebuilders were willing to go out and build spec homes, explained Stifel Nicolaus analyst Michael R. Widner. In other words, they were willing to take the risk of building new home inventory without contracted buyers in place. The bet paid off when hoards of homebuyers showed up in April wanting to take advantage of the credits, and were willing to make a rushed deal to qualify for the incentives. Beazer Homes (BZH) recently reported a sharp drop in orders and backlog in the second quarter, and a cancellation rate that spiked 600 basis points to 29%. >>Beazer Homes: Hard Times Ahead "The weak order trends signal trouble for the fourth quarter," noted Vicki Bryan, senior high yield analyst at Gimme Credit. "Beazer will have to convert an unprecedented -- and unlikely -- 143% of its backlog just to deliver the same number of homes sold in

This Company in the 'Breakup Industry' Gears Up for Valentine's Day
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Valentine's Day may be a time to express love and devotion to your significant other, but it's also a time for breakups.
According to a 2011 survey by Avvo.com, a free ratings and profile service for attorneys and doctors in the U.S., the number of Americans seeking divorce lawyers and divorce-related information "skyrockets" around Valentine's Day.
The reasons could be several: people delaying divorce until after the holidays, waiting for bonuses to come in or even seeing if a relationship can be reconciled based on what's planned for Valentine's Day, the survey found.
Six years ago, Josh Opperman saw an opportunity in the "break-up" industry after experiencing his own broken engagement.Opperman, now 35, was looking to get reimbursed for the more than $10,000 he shelled out for an engagement ring, only to find that most places were only willing to give him a fraction (in some cases just 35%) of what he paid, he says. Opperman decided to create the marketplace so that others wouldn't have to go through what he did. He launched I Do ... Now I Don't in February 2007. The site has become a popular place for sellers to get rid of unwanted jewelry at better prices than in the retail market, and for buyers, especially in this cost-conscious economy, to potentially get an engagement ring of their dreams for less than the retail cost. Last year, about $2.5 million worth of items were sold through the site, according to Opperman. So far the most expensive was a $75,000 engagement ring, he says. The idea takes the pawn and consignment industries to a whole new level. It also threatens the $30 billion retail jewelry market, which has been struggling since the recession, according to IBISWorld. "Price-conscious consumers have found new ways to get deals on jewelry," as the December report says. "Department stores, warehouse retailers and online outlets threaten traditional jewelry retailers by offering consumers a low-priced one-stop shop for their jewelry needs. When consumers shop at these stores more often than traditional jewelry stores, industry revenue will decline."

Added Dec 31, 2011

Port Of Spain, T...
This is a dress I made for one of my graduation celebrations. I made it using 1 1/4" (or 1 1/2" ) satin ribbons. I bought myself a roll of champagne and about 30 yards of black. I did not use all but I got through most of it.
I've uploaded the inspiration dress design which I saw on a UK site I believe. I don't think they used ribbons to produce the effect but that's what the dress looked like to me.
I really love to use ribbon in my work as well, like a trademark.
The dress was made by making a shell out of a sturdy material (I used twill). Darts were put in and the side seams were joined. The back stayed open till I attached all the ribbons. I added ribbon piece by piece up the dress carefully layering for about a 1/2" overlap. WHAT A LENGTH PROCESS! but a wonderful result.
I hope you guys like it!
Sturdy fabric, satin ribbons

Amazing! Looks great! Is the one side of each row open?
Nov 22, 2012, 03.49 PMby ariation
Thank you……yes the bottom side of the ribbin is left open to just fall over the ribbon layer below

This is great! I agree that yours is totally better than the original dress – the lines down the side and the black band at the top give it much better lines. I can't imagine how long it must have taken to sew all those seams, beautiful work!
Jan 6, 2012, 11.57 PMby Yuki M
You made very beautiful lines. you look stunning !

Thanks guys…………..It took alot of time, I really hope some of you would try it. I'm sure it would look great in colour!

In recent years, Ford has taken a lot of chances that have paid off handsomely, especially when it comes to small cars and fuel efficiency. They've succeeded where others have failed in producing small, exciting engines – especially with the EcoBoost. Their new Focus and Fiesta models have been very well received, and the redesigned Fusion already has customers lining up for its arrival.
So it's no surprise that Ford may be willing to walk out onto a limb yet again. Recently, Autoweek reported that Ford could introduce their 1.0L 3-Cylinder engine, popular in the European market, to their U.S. models like the Fiesta and Focus.
To prove that the engine – absolutely tiny in American standards – has the muscle to make it in the Land of Opportunity, Ford took a few 3-cylinder-equipped Focuses to a French test track and promptly set 16 new world records.
Elsewhere in the world, Ford uses the small engine in the Focus, C-MAX and B-MAX models. When Ford began producing the engine in September 2011, they indicated a willingness to eventually bring it to North America. A trip to the United States could only do good things for a nation that suddenly found itself thirsting for relief at the pump.
The 1.0L 3-cylinder is a direct-injection, turbocharged EcoBoost powerplant that responds so quickly it virtually eliminates turbo lag. Twin variable camshaft timing harnesses the engine's power with very little wasted energy. In the European Focus and C-MAX, the engine is available with Start-Stop technology, Active Grille Shutter and Ford Smart Regenerative Charging to increase fuel efficiency.
Visit the autoMedia.com Ford Research Center for quick access to reviews, pricing, photos, mpg and more. Make sure to follow autoMedia.com on Twitter and Facebook.
Would you welcome the arrival of a Ford 1.0L 3-Cylinder engine in the United States? Let us know in the Comments below.

Rushmore: A film "review"

The opportunity is there given sites like Facebook already collect the interests of its members. It is just a matter of mining that data.
I'd say the data is actually pretty limited right now, or at least not easily accessible. Google would be the only company that might have a decent set of interest information. They do already publish an aggregated view in Google Trends.
Interest sharing and communication happens in the otaku communities that spread around the web. If you're into marathon running, there are several community forums for discussing it. Same for just about any other hobby or interest you can think of. They usually run PhpBB and often rely on the relevancy of content and level of activity.
These forums may inaccessible to many – probably those how aren't that serious about the interest. Casual interest comes and goes, and often just wants to quick answer to question online rather than engaging with the community. Google solves that problem well.
Another note is that interests are fleeting. I become interested in something and may drop it unexpectedly at any time. Very few interests stick around more than 6 months. I actually re-opened my delicious account (which had been dormant for 2+ years) a few weeks ago. I looked at the things I was interested in then, and quickly noticed that very few continued to be in my life. I have changed.
There might be an opportunity for a business to build a better forum platform, which I would give to either http://teethie.com, http://disqus.com or http://tumblr.com – all trying to tackle this space. The biggest challenge I see them facing is that people associate the community with a name/domain. It's hard to build a site for all communities – just look at http://ning.com (considered a failure in this space).
Great post, Steve!
Hunch.com have been exploring this space a lot. It's a big challenge!
I've found a couple good connections towards this end with several Meetup groups around things I'm interested in (iPhone Developers, barefoot runners, paleo diet people). But the scheduling demands and geographic demands of meeting in person cause this interaction to be really infrequent.
I know there is a certain quality of relationship / interaction from in person meets that can't be replicated digitally, but I do share your desire to more easily connect with similarly interested people in some capacity that goes beyond occasionally trolling the same blogs.
But you're right about the paradox of commercializing the non-comercial interests in our lives. You can't build an ad-supported business around that one. Perhaps someone will figure out a non-intrusive Freemium model for this one. Maybe a compelling platform where you get your non-commercial connections for free, but pay extra for the professional ones. Tough problem.

Is it okay to take a fiber supplement every day?
- Q: Is it okay to take a fiber supplement every day? And how much is the proper amount of calcium that I should take daily? The vitamin bottle says 2 tablets. Is that about right?
- A: Yes, it in most cases it is recommended that people take a fiber supplement every day. The proper amount of calcium can vary depending on factor such as diet, exercise, amount of sunlight, amount of dairy products consumed. As a rule of thumb, I typically recommend that my patients have a Tums (calcium carbonate) tablet 500 mg twice daily. However, most people do not necessarily need to supplement in their 20s unless otherwise instructed by their physician or nutritionist. You can also find helpful information at http://www.everydayhealth.com/womens-health/osteoporosis/sources-of-calcium.aspx. Matt Curley, PharmD

Midtown West
The Chatwal
New York, NY, 10036, United States
Once a 1930s hangout for the likes of Fred Astaire, Irving Berlin, and John Barrymore, the Lambs Club, originally designed by Beaux-Arts architect Stanford White, has been reinvented as the new 83-room Chatwal. A decade in the making, the hotel is named after Indian entrepreneur Sant-Singh Chatwal (father of hotelier Vikram Chatwal). For the interiors, Thierry Despont put an updated twist on Art Deco: from the red-leather banquettes and a limestone fireplace to the terrazzo floors and leather-wrapped closets. Bellhops wear pillbox hats, and rooms are stocked with backgammon sets and copies of The Great Gatsby. A former library has been converted into the Stanford White Studio, a lounge and event space complete with original bookshelves and wood paneling. The hotel's restaurant, appropriately called the Lambs Club, is Manhattan's new hot spot: chef Geoffrey Zakarian serves modern American fare (olive oil and lemon-infused chicken, buttery poached halibut) while the bar turns out retro cocktails by Milk & Honey mixologist Sasha Petraske, who pioneered the city's speakeasy trend.
Room to Book:
Junior Suites on the seventh floor are more spacious than those on the lower floors; request one with a terrace—it's almost double the size of a standard room.
Insider Tip:
Shop New York's premier boutiques like a fashion insider thanks to The Chatwal's Fashion Cognoscenti package. Stylist Jean Mayer will tailor the day's itinerary to your tastes and help you select from this season's hottest trends (half-day tour for two people from $650, including private chauffeur and champagne).

Welcome to my
Variable Star Pages
The science of Astronomy is unique. A great deal of astronomical research depends on the work of highly skilled amateur astronomers that provide a pivotal role in the constant monitoring of variable stars.
I observe and monitor variable stars particularly the cataclysmic (explosive ) variable stars (CVs) for outbursts. Recorded observations are then sent to various variable star organizations which include, the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO), the research section of the Royal Astronomical Society of New Zealand, Variable Stars South (VSS) and the Variable Star Network (VSNET) a global professional-amateur network of researches in variable stars.
These pages tell my story, show a selection of light curves, links to articles, dramatic events, transient objects and cataclysmic variables (CVs).
The current observations page will show my latest observations, outbursts detections and activity on variable stars.
Web pages will be updated
and content added as time
allows (on cloudy nights!!)

Tue, Jul 29, 2003
SureCheck Aviation, Inc. just
today released a completely redesigned "next
generation" portable collision avoidance system, with
TrafficScope VRX. TrafficScope VRX is altitude-based and combines
many advanced collision avoidance technologies into one small
While the price of most installed collision avoidance avionics
remains outside the budget of many pilots, TrafficScope VRX was
developed to combine traffic safety and
affordability. Completely self-contained, VRX is truly a
"Plug and Go" device that is suited for pilots who fly
multiple aircraft since installation is not required. However,
SureCheck Aviation, Inc. also provides permanent installation
assistance with FAA form 337 and available mounting and
installation kits.
Based on Mode C and Mode-S transponders, this passive detection
method gives true versatility to increasing air traffic awareness.
TrafficScope is microprocessor controlled and utilizes menus to
assist pilots in all aspects of flight. TrafficScope includes an
onboard altimeter for added reference accuracy and can be set up
for flight and ground mode operations, as well as an auto mode
which senses when the pilot becomes airborne and switches itself
into flight mode. Ground mode allows pilots to see only airborne
threats, which can be extremely useful in non-towered airports
prior to departure. In addition to flight mode, TrafficScope VRX
allows the pilot to scale the view of traffic by two independent
parameters, altitude and range.
For altitude, TrafficScope will detect traffic within 500 feet,
1000 feet, or an "unlimited" view. For range,
TrafficScope gives you a maximum user-selectable detection range of
up to 5.0 NM. TrafficScope VRX will alert the pilot through audio
messages when an aircraft poses a threat. The alerts intelligently
adapt to the pilot's altitude and range parameters, thus
eliminating annoying alerts from aircraft of no concern. Since
TrafficScope VRX monitors both horizontal and vertical separation,
accurate threat assessment is greatly enhanced. The audio
alert feature is mono or stereo selectable. Volume is digitally
controlled and can be instantly muted.
The VRX contains unique features including a Wake Turbulence
Area warning, which indicates a potential wake turbulence hazard,
as well as RADAR environment and Mode S indications. Another
advantage of TrafficScope VRX is a one-touch local altitude feature
which allows the user to see exactly what altitude your transponder
is sending back to ATC. To interface with other avionics, the rear
data port can send traffic information to other compliant avionics
through an RS-232 format.
TrafficScope VRX is compatible with both pressurized and
non-pressurized aircraft and includes a 3 year warranty, a custom
hard carrying case, and an audio cable. Power is supplied by either
4 "AA" batteries (included) or a cigarette adapter
(also included). TrafficScope VRX is extremely compact, measuring
only 5.3" long, 3.5" wide, and 1.9" tall.
Suggested Retail is $1,195 and includes online training course
