Interview: Sarah Paulson's 12 Years of Breakthroughs
There are few things in cinema more satisfying than watching those with true gifts prosper and develop. Overnight sensations are exciting but watching careers that build slowly, continually showing new facets and amassing fans piecemeal is a richer experience. Such is the case with the actress Sarah Paulson. With her key role as Mistress Epps in the likely Best Picture contender 12 Years a Slave and her starring role on the anthology series American Horror Story (returning to TV tomorrow night), it's time to get our appreciation on.
I first noticed her in that undersung fanciful homage to 1960s romcoms Down With Love (2003) though her carer stretches back into short-lived television gigs in the mid 90s. When we sat down to talk recently, I confessed to Paulson that I had been completely intimidated by her when I met her at a party for Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011). I had no explanation for this - at the time she hadn't played anything as scary as her plantation wife. "You had an inkling," she mused suggesting I had seen Mistress Epps coming.
But who could have? Who knew she had that in her?
NATHANIEL: 12 Years a Slave is a big moment in your career but it's not your first "breakthrough" really. I'm wondering about how you experience these things internally. When did things change for you, personally, as an artist?

Sell Salesforce.com and Buy a New Life
Trying to satisfy an insatiable appetite for growth, investors don't mind placing big bets on companies such Salesforce.com, expecting out-of-this world future performance.
As a result, Salesforce continues to enjoy a multiple that is sky-high and offends investors like me who stress realistic P/E ratios.
Disappointingly, the argument continues to be that valuation does not matter in the tech sector. That's all well and good so long the roulette wheel keeps spinning. But what happens when it stops -- and on the wrong color?
Though the company continues to generate a considerable amount of interest from investors, the odds are stacked against it because it is already priced to perfection while rivals such as SAP (SAP) produce higher margins and increased levels of profitability.
It's worth mentioning that Salesforce.com hasn't earned a profit for almost a decade while its gross margins have shown some erosion over the past several quarters. Yet the stock rises. In situations like these, one slip can be catastrophic. But will investors know what to look for? While the tech sector as a whole continues to lead the stock market, it seems that Wall Street is being reckless and cavalier toward valuations of stocks such as Salesforce.com. Individual investors would be wise to get a life and move on. Follow @rsaintvilus At the time of publication, the author held no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

The Rolling Stones Tease 'Big News' With Newfangled App
The Rolling Stones have promised to reveal "big news" to the world shortly, and apparently they're going to do it via a new mobile device app named uView.
The Rolling Stones have promised to reveal "big news" to the world shortly, and apparently they're going to do it via a new mobile device app named uView.
If you're looking for a reason to stay in tonight, PBS has it as their 'My Music' series served up 'Ed Sullivan's Top Performers.' The special, airing on PBS stations across the country, takes a look back at the longtime variety show host's top music acts.
The Rolling Stones pay homage to their blues roots alongside one of their heroes on the newly unearthed live DVD 'Muddy Waters and the Rolling Stones: Live at the Checkerboard Lounge Chicago 1981.'
Most of us weren't able to travel to London's Somerset House to celebrate the Rolling Stones' 50th Anniversary last month, so a new video the band has posted will have to do.
Lollapalooza isn't the only game for artists this weekend, as the indie-leaning Osheaga Festival is currently taking over Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal. And while it's not exactly a hotbed for classic rock artists, the festival did provide a little nod to the past Friday night (Aug. 3) when MGMT trotted out their Rolling Stones cover.
The Rolling Stones are now enjoying their 50th year as a band, which is a long time for any group of musicians, so it should come as no surprise that with his age advancing that guitarist Keith Richards is getting a bit forgetful.
While Charlie Watts may be referring to the Rolling Stones recent gathering as "practicing, not rehearsing," singer Mick Jagger has spilled the beans that something is in the works for this fall.
The good news is that the Rolling Stones members are definitely spending a lot of time together in each other's orbit, but they may not exactly be on the same page. After guitarist Keith Richards stated earlier this week that the band had been rehearsing for what will likely be their 50th Anniversary Tour, drummer Charlie Watts had a different version of what's going on.
In addition to Keith Moon, the Rolling Stones are another high-profile act forced to turn down a chance to play the 2012 Olympics in London. The games begin next weekend, with ceremonies to include Paul McCartney and Blur. Mick Jagger says his band wasn't stage ready.
On July 12, 1962 something monumental happened. A band calling themselves the Rolling Stones took to the stage for the first time. You can see a press announcement for that gig right here.
They can't seem to figure out how best to celebrate their 50th anniversary, but yesterday (July 11) the Rolling Stones were able to agree on at least one thing: It was time to return to the site of their first gig and take a picture to mark the occasion.
Twenty-two years after the tour, the Rolling Stones have finally gotten around to releasing a live document of their 1990 stand at the Tokyo Dome — and all 24 tracks will cost you less than five bucks.

Pongolle seeks Spain stay
09 Feb 2007 - 08:11:20
On-loan striker Florent Sinama-Pongolle is keen to turn his stay with Recreativo Huelva into a permanent one in the summer.
The 22-year-old Frenchman has netted eight goals in 18 appearances for Huelva this season, having moved to Spain after an unproductive stint in England with Liverpool.
However, despite failing to start many games in recent weeks, Sinama-Pongolle seems keen on an extended stay in La Liga.
He said: "If I have not been in the starting eleven for the last few weeks it's because of the competition we have here.
"Here you have to wait for your opportunity and I hope to have demonstrated to the coach that he can count on me.
"I am happy here, but my future depends on an agreement between Huelva and Liverpool."

Here is our latest single 'Dead Rock Stars' available to listen to via YouTube
You can also download the new single on iTunes and Amazon!
iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/dead-rock-stars-single/id905454472
Here's a quick little snippet of one of the new demos called "Disconnect".
There are also some live video clips from our August show now up on the MEDIA page.
Stay tuned for more info on our new album and everything else that's in the works.
It's been almost a year after the release of 'Not So Innocent' and TIEKEN is already working on a new album. This new album will feature not only Trevin and Trent Tieken but also guitarist Grimm Speck. This will mark the first TIEKEN album to feature Grimm. On 2012's 'Not So Innocent' all recording and performances were done by Trent and Trevin, with Trevin taking on double duties as bassist and guitarist on the album, this new album will still have some guitar parts done by Trevin but will also showcase Grimm and his amazing guitar playing. All aspects of this album will be independently done, just like NSI, but the writing, performances, recording and production will easily be recognized as being even greater than what TIEKEN did on NSI. Currently demos and pre-production are underway and no title has yet to be established. Stay tuned for all the latest info on the album's progress as it comes in, and for little teasers and snippets during the process.
In the May issue of The Illinois Entertainer, our album Not So Innocent was featured in a dead on, short, sweet and simple, review by IE writer Jeff Berkwitz.
"Ursa, Ill., (pop. 627) isn't known for its music scene (or much of anything else), but that hasn't stopped resident misfits Tieken from putting out an impressive 14-song set…" -Review Excerpt
You can read the full review here http://illinoisentertainer.com/2013/05/around-hear-may-2013-local-cd-reviews/
Go to our youtube page at www.youtube.com/tiekenofficial to see lots of great fan filmed footage from the 08/17/13 State Room show. Also go to www.facebook.com/tiekenband for the latest pics and updates from the band.
Thanks so much for everyone who came out and to everyone involved!!-TIEKEN
TIEKEN will be performing at the State Room in Quincy, IL on Saturday, August 17th. On the bill is also Esther Moore and will feature 'Ice Scream' owner Patrick Taylor as master of ceremonies. More details TBA.
Admission will be $5.00
The State Room: 434 S 8th St, Quincy, IL 62301
We are currently working on a new EP to be released this summer that will feature new guitarist Grimm Speck. The new EP will feature songs written, performed, recorded, produced and engineered all independently by us (Trevin and Trent Tieken) in our home studio. We also have many ideas circulating about some big show plans for later this summer. We are asking for help from fans and friends to donate to help fund the band for any cd production, merchandising, show funding, etc.. needs.
If you want to help, please donate through PayPal here: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=OA05-YjsNFyFqUhTViTnmc550sOqbpA4m7vkNJIuHgTJ4eu_GE3aXrgtpSy&dispatch=5885d80a13c0db1f8e263663d3faee8d14f86393d55a810282b64afed84968ec
Without you, the fans and friends, we wouldn't be able to do what we do. Thank you and we love you!

This is a tricky opening for these lower rated players so try this
weird huh?
Looks like one of those openings I should throw in every now and then to mix it up a bit.
IM pfren
The main line is quite dangerous, but there is 3...ed4 4.Nf3 Bb4+ 5.c3 dc3 6.bc3 d5! 7.ed5 Bd6, which is scoring very well for Black.
For variations, look at http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~goeller/urusov/gambit/D.html
Just a warning, there are errors and omissions in the analyses, and the site is strongly biased towards white.
Yes that 6...d5 line given by pfren above seems one of the most critical. Generally an early ...d5 is the move by which Black can spoil White's fun in most of these oddball gambits.
Still, if you are willing to play the resulting position, or if you are expecting your opponent not to play an early ...d5, the Urusov has the advantage of ruling out any options of Black angling towards the Petroff defence. You should be aware though that if Black chooses not to try to refute the gambit, there's always the option of 4...Nc6, when you reach a totally normal Two Knights' Defence where White has already committed to d2-d4, so no fried liver anymore...
That aside, here's one of my happier memories with that gambit, played in a 45 45 live chess game on another website:
Post more games!! =O! This opening looks pretty awesome.
And I juuust happen to be under 1800 =D 1799.
That is a heck of a dangerous looking opening! CRAZY STUFF!
Thanks a lot didiz 1016.
I just fed the opening moves to crafty and it says - Two Knight's Defence, Yudansky Attack.
Maybe it's another name for Urusoff Gambit.
How can it be "two knights defence" with the other black knight still on b8?
That's what I was wondering too.
there's always the option of 4...Nc6
isn't this just black playing Nf6 instead of Nc6 in the scotch gambit?
That question is a bit like: "Isn't the Petroff (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6) just Black playing Nf6 instead of Nc6 in the Spanish?"
So yeah, we may come across similar motives as in some Scotch Gambit games, but generally it makes a heck of a difference which knight has been developed....
It's a bit like an opening I play quite often in blitz games (which I'd thought was called the Veresov gambit, hm):
Where is the "disaster"?
White is at most slightly better in your final position, and white's advantage is even more minuscule after the right reply 7...Kf8 8.Qxc5+ Qe7. But it's true that most will play either 5...Nf6, or 5...d6 which are "regular" Italians.
OK, maybe disastrous was a bit strong, but in a blitz game it's much easier to play as white when black tries ...Bc5 to hold the pawn. I wouldn't play it in a long game just because black gets a solid game with
I used to play it but it just turns into a Scotch Gambit after this so it doesn't really surprise people a lot.
For me these high risk, high reward openings are just like trying to trap someone. I think I would be likely to botch it up. My guess is, if there were one of these openings that was so good at giving white a great advantage, everyone would be doing it and know the defense too.
I have still considered it, though it seems like once players are about or above my rank, they see enough good moves to spoil the fun.

This shower curtain is even prettier than the picture. The colors are bright, the writing on the curtain is detailed and clear. I love the pictures of the Eifel tower and the Cathedral and the Cafe signs. A great purchase, I am very happy. Thanks Overstock.com!
I have a fondness for Paris having lived there for several years. I thought this might be full of clich�s about the city but actually it is a nice mix of iconic monuments and unusual hotel insignias. It's also a soft fabric which is easy to throw in the washing machine every week. Overall, I'm very satisfied!
Loved it - fabric was light weight so didn''t overwhelm my small bathroom = colors were as shown and had great pictures of Paris. Perfect with my bathroom wall color and the poster of Marcelle Lender dancing the Bolero. Brings back wonderful memories of Paris.
Wanted something fun for the guest bath, this is very cute.
I ordered this for my new apartment and I am in love! The colors are amazing and matched well with my dark grey bath mats. It even matched my blue and white table. Because it is a colorful curtain, it would be easy to match with anything. Also important, my fiance hasn't complained about it being too "girly." This product feels and looks quality. I have only noticed a few strings coming off the seams in the back...but they are easily removed and have not compromised the quality of this product. Highly recommend!
This shower curtain is even nicer than the picture! It's made from nice, heavy-duty fabric and it's really good quality. It adds a great pop of color to my white bathroom!
I do not order items much online. I was extremely impressed with the quick delivery! The shower curtain is more than what reflects in the pictures. The fabric used is high quality. The colors are brighter and vivid. Goes fabulous with my other Paris d�cor in my bathroom. Very pleased with product!
What a super shower curtain. Great quality. Beautiful colors. Looks awesome with my pale peach walls.

Don't unwittingly end up as roadkill on the information highway. Photo courtesy Alaska State Troopers Lance Ewers and Mark Eldridge
For the past two months, we've looked at officers' on-duty and off-duty use of social media and Internet postings (see links below), including:
- Their rights and responsibilities;
- The limits to their free speech;
- What comments may get them sued for defamation; and
- What comments may get them disciplined, including fired.
Now we're going to look at some stories of real cops who hadn't figured out ahead of time what we've been talking about here. If you like happy endings, you may not wish to proceed.
Bikini Wearing Cop vs. Bikini Wearing Cop Car
Can a bikini get you fired? That may depend on how and where you wear it.
Let's say one of you is a female deputy sheriff. In your off-duty time you philanthropically participate in a charity bikini car wash fundraiser wearing, well, a skimpy bikini. The fundraiser is marketed as Tits-n-Tats. The event also features employees from a topless strip club.
The other of you is a male police officer who takes his private car to the fundraiser, then decides to take his patrol car. A photo of your patrol car with the scantily-clad car washers draped on the hood surfaces on Facebook.
This happened in Moncks Corner, S.C—population 7,044. The ending is a mixed bag. No job action was taken against the deputy sheriff. A statement issued by the Sheriff's Office said, "She was involved in the event as a private citizen and did not violate the law, BC [Berkley County] SO or county's policies."
The police officer is out of a job. It's unknown if he was fired or asked to resign. His chief said there were policies governing take-home cruisers and allowing bikini-clad women to be photographed next to one violated those policies.
I ask you, dear readers, if you think the punishment would've been the same if the photo hadn't been circulated on Facebook, thus garnering public attention? That is, would the officer have been fired for violating the policies governing the use of take-home cruisers if the violation had been known only within the department and hadn't made it onto the Internet?
They Weren't Thinking
An Indiana state trooper resigned and an Indianapolis Metro PD Officer was suspended for what all would agree were some stupid postings on the trooper's personal Facebook page.
The trooper bragged about heavy drinking and posted photos of his banged-up patrol car with the comment, "Oops! Where did my front end go?" Perhaps the most infamous photo showed the police officer friend holding a gun to the trooper's head as he described drinking lots of beer with his buddies.
The trooper also weighed in on his work and people who resist arrest. He referred to himself as a "garbage man" and "I pick up trash for a living." Commenting on an incident in which Fresno police officers punched a homeless man during his arrest, the trooper posted, "Let someone, homeless or not, try and stab me … he'll probably end up shot. These people should have died when they were young anyway, I'm just doing them a favor."
According to a major with the ISP, the state's biggest concern was that the trooper may have been Facebooking on duty. I'm biting my keyboard here. How does personal use of a computer (not unlike a personal phone call) on department time rise above concern about the content here? Maybe it's because, in the absence of any specific social media policy, using a computer for personal communication on tax payer time was the only violation.
Asked what the trooper and IMPD officer could have been thinking, an IMPD sergeant spokesperson said, "They weren't thinking. It was an error in judgment…so now there has to be accountability and that's what we're doing."
With MySpace Friends Like These, Who Needs Enemies?
A well-known roadkill on the information highway was Lexington Officer Joshua Cromer, who stopped and arrested country singing star John Michael Montgomery. Montgomery ended up charged with DUI, possessing a controlled drug and two counts of carrying a concealed weapon.
Friends, mostly fellow cops, congratulated Cromer on his MySpace page and made fun of Montgomery by posting a doctored photo portraying Cromer as an adoring fan.
Complaints about Cromer's site sparked the brass into checking out other officers' MySpace pages. The pages contained disparaging comments about the citizenry, gays and the mentally disabled. Cromer was dismissed and five of his MySpace friends were suspended.
Montgomery copped a plea to just the DUI charge with a $660 fine and court costs. If you don't think his attorneys' subpoena for the officers' MySpace pages had anything to do with that deal, I've got some costume jewelry I'd like to show you.
Detective's Facebook Comments Targeted by Gun Advocates
An East Palo Alto detective came under fire for posting disparaging Facebook comments about gun advocates carrying unloaded weapons. The California gun law at issue apparently prohibits carrying a concealed weapon without a license but permits open display of a firearm in a holster, but it's illegal for the gun to be loaded in most cases.

Google unveils Android-equivalent of 'Find My iPhone'
Google's Device Manager for Android helps users locate their phones.
There's that one time you left your Android device in a restaurant, and then the other time when you left it in a fitting room. And occasionally, you might leave it on your kitchen counter, and panic all day at work wondering where it went.
Google has introduced a way to track down misplaced Android devices, which will help alleviate the stress of the cellphone hide-and-seek game.
The Android Device Manager lets users ring their phone at maximum volume, even if the phone is on silent, and locate the phone on a real-time map. If there is no hope of retrieving the phone, users can even wipe their device clean of all information – the so-called "kill switch" – so that their data doesn't fall into ill-intentioned hands.
While these new features will certainly help recover cellphone devices that are tucked into the folds of a sofa, the Device Manager also addresses a more serious problem plaguing smart phone users nationwide: the rise of cellphone theft.
The San Francisco and New York attorneys general both supported the creation of a Save our Smartphones initiative to combat rampant theft of these devices. In New York City, 20 percent of all robberies involved the theft of a smart phone – a 40 percent increase since 2011, according to a statement issued by the Save our Smartphone coalition. New York City even has a separate Apple task force that deals solely with the theft of iPhones and iPads.

The 12 Days of iMas, Day 5: Is your iPhone full of crap? This should help
Today is the fifth day of a 12-day feature where we'll show you the strangest Apple-flavored gifts we can find. Check out the previous days here: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4
Day 5: A mini plunger for your iPhone
There are so many things laying around your house that can prop your iPhone up, it's amazing that there's even a market for retail products that perform the task at all -- but there are, and boy are there a lot of them. Here we have a "stand" designed to keep your iPhone at a desirable angle for watching videos or playing games, and it's less than US$2. Wait, did I not mention it's a plunger?
The diminutive bathroom tool is made out of silicone and wood, just like the real thing, which only makes it even more strange. I mean, I suppose it serves its purpose just fine, and it's probably even pretty handy if you happen to have any tiny toilets laying around, so why not give one to someone you love?

Voidhawk, no. 1
Jason Halstead
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
Too young and naïve to care about the tensions between nations, Dexter Silverhawk considered himself the luckiest man alive when he found a derelict voidship hidden amongst some asteroids. Making it void-worthy and finding a crew to sail it seem like minor problems when he ends up in a Federation prison.
Rotting in a communal cell, Dexter's luck shows a fickle side when a mysterious elven woman is thrust into into his life. Helping her fend off an assault Dexter quickly learns that her mind and her tongue are weapons against which he has little defense. Unable to resist, he hires her at the first opportunity.
Surviving both politics, sorcery, and even ancient curses will force the growing crew of the Voidhawk to put aside their differences and work together. What remains for the young captain is the lessons of when to heed his mind, and when to heed his heart.

About Me
Foxy is truly a lucky dog. She is one in a million freed from the Korean dog meat market. She at a food market on display and someone had just bought the dogs in the crates that they were in. Thankfully, Guardians of Rescue (our rescue partner) were able to negotiate her release.
Her eyes pleaded in fear and confusion. Many dogs are stolen right out of people's yards. We strongly feel that she may have been someone's pet as she is extremely domesticated and docile. She gratefully sat in the car on GoR laps and went to a veterinarian immediately and is now at Save-A-Pet.
Her fight is our fight. Look into the eyes of your dog, and imagine him/her being stolen and tortured for his meat and eaten. Both are available for adoption at Save-A-Pet.

Pittwater to Coffs Harbour Race 2013 - Wedgetail takes line honours
Thu, 3 Jan 2013
The Club Marine Pittwater to Coffs Harbour yacht race has just witnessed one of the tightest finishes in history after Bill Wild's Queensland RP55 Wedgetail crossed the finish line at 19 hours 53 minutes and three seconds, just three and a half minutes ahead of Syd Fischer's TP52 Ragamuffin, to take line honours of this year's 228-nautical mile race
Both boats had an interesting battle throughout the race in what Syd Fischer, skipper of the TP52 Ragamuffin, described as 'neck and neck all the way'. At 6am this morning as the boats passed Nambucca Heads for their final radio check, Ragamuffin held a 1.5 nautical mile lead with only 20 miles left to sail.
But Wedgetail managed to get the better of the wind angles to take the lead 45 minutes from the finish. Skipper Bill Wild said of the race, 'it was a good race, not too demanding but we had a good battle with Syd. We led at the start then Syd took over, then we led for a little bit in the middle, then Syd got back on top. So, it kept us on our toes and luckily the breeze held in through the night which was pleasing. It was the outcome we were looking for.'
On the final couple of hours of the race, Wild added,' After dropping the kite over the side at first light, we were able to regroup and get another one up. It paid to be the better choice. We managed to get the better of the wind angles, have the right sails and there was just good crew work and good steering. We managed to get through them in the end, which was the best part and we just held on. It's very pleasing and it's great to be here.'
Syd Fischer, the 1996 line honours and handicap winner of this race, praised his crew aboard Ragamuffin, 'who worked hard all the way and worked well together. There a great bunch of guys and unfortunately it wasn't to be in this race, but that's yacht racing. The race overall was enjoyable and not too difficult. The boat performed well.'
The crews of both boats were met by a welcome party assembled on Mutton Bird Island and the breakwall on the opposite of the harbour as they crossed the finish line and then presented with the Lline Honours Bell Trophy by CHYC Commodore Garry Ennis at the Coffs Harbour marina.
Fischer still leads on IRC handicap however, and with the breeze now easing on the remainder of the fleet, the prized handicap trophy could still be his. He leads in IRC from Wedgetail and Swish and also in ORCi from Swish and Pretty Woman. In PHS, at present it is Wedgetail ahead of Ragamuffin and Swish in third.
The next boats to finish will be the Kaiko 52 Merlin, the Kernan 44 Swish and the Marten 49 Perpetual Mocean who are bunched very closely together doing 5-6 knots as they approach Nambucca Heads with approximately 24 nautical miles to sail. They aren't expected in until late afternoon.

Editorial: Time for city and county to help EDC
It is unfortunate to see this week's stalemate on the joint powers board of the Kandiyohi County and City of Willmar Economic Development Commission.
The EDC's joint powers board deadlocked Thursday in a 3-3 vote on Mayor Frank Yanish's proposed nomination of Linda Kacher to the EDC's operating board. The nomination failed to receive the four votes necessary for approval.

A well-produced performance poetry video from Emote Record Company, "a record label dedicated entirely to the recording, distribution, promotion, and support of spoken word artists and the spoken word community." Du Plessis is one of several artists recorded in what appears to be someone's living room in Johannesburg. (View more at Emote's YouTube channel.)
Scoring and Additional Recording by Paul Elliott
Edited, Mixed and Mastered by Simon Strehler
Videographers: Ett Venter, Bernard BrandSpecial Thanks to Clive Thomson and the Thomson family, the greatest hosts on Earth.
It's no secret that I'm not the biggest fan of spoken word and slam-style poetry. But the outrageous rhymes on "Orwell" sold me on this one. Plus I applaud the emphasis on audio and video production. Emote's website, spokenwordcollective.com, was just launched last month, so they're obviously just getting off the ground. I hope they go far.
A Nic Sebastian remix of a poem in the Poetry Storehouse by Theresa Senato Edwards. Sebastian re-purposed some stock footage to gorgeous and disturbing effect, and the music she chose really carries the film. Here are her process notes:
For this haunting poem on abuse by Theresa Senato Edwards, I used both film and still image elements – first time I have combined the two.
For the backdrop of the bleak disastrous relationship, I used darkened stock footage of what was originally a relatively cheerful sunshiney scene of an abandoned house in a field. Once darkened, it looked lonely and empty – a context in which forbidden activity could easily take place unchecked. To begin, end and punctuate the piece, I slowed down and darkened stock footage of a summer lightning storm to represent the abuser.
For the victim, I used a stock still image from StockVault which suggested muffling and suffocation to me. I used the image as a fade-in at three different places in the film, each time adding a different Ken Burns effect to it – panning away, towards, across. The hollow 'alien drone' soundtrack was by Speedenza, one of my freesound.org favorites.
Many thanks once more to Theresa for sharing this powerful piece at the Poetry Storehouse.
Sebastian's chronicle of her education as a videopoem-maker is really turning into a valuable resource for others who want to learn the craft. I advise either following her blog on WordPress.com, as I do, or else subscribing to the Videopoems category link in an RSS feed reader.
A collaboration between Marc Neys and Matt Mullins, who writes:
Alzheimer's/Dementia includes a phase called sundowning during which the afflicted cannot shake the sense that there is somewhere else they must be, regardless of where they are. This includes the need to go "home" even if one is already home. The videopoem comments on this condition even as it comments on how Alzheimer's/Dementia takes the sufferer "away" from loved ones while that loved one is still in their presence.

An English-subtitled reading by the Argentinian poet Diana Bellessi, part of a larger documentary about her. The translation's really good and the language and landscape are both mesmerizing, I thought. Here's the YouTube description:

This is Part III of 12 Moons, the collaborative videopoetry project from Erica Goss (text), Nic Sebastian (voice), Kathy McTavish (music) and Marc Neys, A.K.A. Swoon (music, concept, camera, and direction) for Atticus Review:
12 Moons is an artwork combining poetry, voice, music and video. Twelve poems written by Erica Goss form the narrative. The poems move through a year of full moons, reflecting the hidden influence of the moon on one person's life. Kathy McTavish's original music adds complexity to Nic Sebastian's intense and compelling narration, framed by Swoon's precise editing of sound and image, which creates a miniature universe for each poem within the context of the project.
Marc writes:
It's a fun, yet slightly mysterious poem. I wanted simple footage, bright colours and 'wormlike' movement and I found some (shadows shot while hiking).
Just as with the first 2, I wanted the ending to turn away from the visual storyline.Fun news about the project; Erica Goss and I will present the whole project (all 12) during an artist talk at the Zebra Poetry Film Festival in Berlin later this year.

Body by Science A Research Based Program to Get the Results You Want in 12 Minutes a Week Building muscle has never been faster or easier than with this revolutionary once-a-week training program In Body By Science, bodybuilding powerhouse John Little teams up with fitness medicine expert Dr. Doug McGuff to present a scientifically proven formula for maximizing muscle development in just 12 minutes a week. Backed by rigorous research, the authors prescribe a weekly high-intensity program for increasing strength, revving metabolism, and building muscle for a total fitness experience. 3 Stars Not as "scientific" as it lets on… There are a lot of other good points, too, but they are all pretty general and common sense. For example, "The Big Five" (or "Big Three") has been exercise 101 for over a century because of one simple reason: there are really only 5 natural movements that the human body can reasonably perform with weights: Overhead pressing, pulling/pushing down with the lats, pushing out from the chest, pulling into the chest, and standing up to extend the legs. It's also been long understood that the three pillars of weight training are training, diet, and rest: if you're struggling to make gains, you should look at all three instead of just training harder, which can be potentially counterproductive. Again, this should be common sense, but it must be said nonetheless. However, for a book that's supposed to be so predicated on "science," the science that's presented is often poorly understood or perhaps even deliberately confused to support the author's own selling points and shortcomings of their training system. Example #1: There is no scientific evidence supporting "Max Contraction," just John Little's marketing. None. The authors' emphasis on doing reps very slowly and counting the time spent under stress are also scientifically dubious with mixed support in the literature. Example #2: There is no scientific evidence that says old Nautilus machines are conclusively better for fitness than free weights or other manufacturors, but the authors own a gym that specializes in this equipment so it's cited as being the ultimate in training. There is some truth to machine-based workouts being easier on certain joints, and they get bonus points in HIT because they allow you to safely go to failure without a spotter, but the authors barely reference those key points. Example #3: The studies that are cited are often sort of thrown together. Some will involve elderly or extremely out of shape clients who would have benefited greatly from the introduction of just about any physical activity. The authors point this out when the studies in question apply to aerobic exercise as a reason not to trust those studies, but fail to keep this in mind when studies on similar parameters agree with their own conclusion. Example #4: If you look up pictures of John Little and most of his clients, you'll mostly find a group of fairly average looking men with very few impressive physical specimens. You'd be hard pressed to tell if some of them work out at all, and I think most people at least want noticable gains from their gym experience. Little asserts time and again that success in sports and bodybuilding is mostly because of genetics and that less than 2.5% of men have the "genetic potential" to build large muscles. However, if you go to just about any gym with a reasonably large clientelle, you'll see several amateur bodybuilders who show that the genetics necessary for this kind of size are not so rare, if in fact they have any "special" genetics at all. Little's "12 minutes a week of max contraction" disciples tend to look absolutely puny by comparison. That's what I found most disturbing about this book: the misrepresentation of science in the book's emphasis on "genetic potential," particularly the role of genetically determined levels of myostatin as the holy grail, when it comes to building muscle. While myostatin inhibition does help produce large muscles with little bodyfat, the science simply does not say what the authors assert it does. That section is badly written, poorly researched, and misleading. For examples, the book says that professional bodybuilders refused to be tested for myostatin levels because it may harm their endorsement deals, when in fact many (such as the FREAKISH Ron Coleman, who bags millions in endorsements) were tested for a variety of genetic differences and the results usually came back that they were, in fact, fairly average. Only a couple of examples of genetic irregularities were found and those came from lesser known bodybuilders–most famously, "Flex Wheeler," who has extra muscle fibers. The science just didn't find that bodybuilders are necessarily genetic freaks when looking for the things that it expected to find. But the myostatin discussion gets worse when discussing myostatin inhibition in racing whippets (and the rare, super muscled freaks known as "bully whippets"), the authors say that "Bully whippets" win most of the races. This is the exact OPPOSITE of reality: Bully whippets are typically euthanized by breeders as puppies because they perform very poorly in races. Their added bulk slows them down and they tend to be injury prone. That gets to another point the authors overlook: high levels of myostatin inhibition is not associated with greater athletic performance. In fact, myostatin-inhibited mice have been determined, pound for pound, to have weaker muscles than typical mice and much more prone to tendon and joint injuries. Belgian cattle have major problems dealing with stress, are more injury prone, and are also weaker, pound for pound, than typical cattle. It remains to be seen how the handful of positively identified humans with the special genetics that the authors say will make them champion bodybuilders will turn out. The authors also hint that myostatin inhibiting drugs, their perceived holy grail for supplimentation, were stopped by pharmaceutical companies "for no reason," perhaps even because it may cost them sales of other suppliments, but the truth is that all the drugs that were tested were having potentially lethal effects, such as causing enlargement of the heart. Even then, a couple of myostatin inhibitors were sold as bodybuilding suppliments for a while in the 2000s, but they never caught on because they proved worthless. I don't know if any of them are on the market today. All of this casts doubts on this book's "scientific" marketing angle. If you follow the authors' advice you may become fitter and happier, as their suggestions will help you achieve and maintain a modest level of fitness, but take the authors' discussion of genetics and unusual training techniques (like "Max Contraction") with a healthy grain of salt. If you want to get in and maintain a "normal" baseline level of practical fitness with an average body type, you could do a lot worse than to do what this book says. However, if you wish to be a bodybuilder or athlete, you should look elsewhere my friends. 5 Stars Shed New Light 5 Stars A rational approach to exercise. This book reveals those "ugly facts" and should be read by those who want to put exercise in their lives, not be their lives. 5 Stars Awesome Book 3 Stars Heavy on Unproven Theory This book does indeed get into the HIT method of training, but the constant reference to religious faith (the religion being evolution) was discouraging from a book that promised to help build our bodies by science. |

British solo artist David Ford does more than sing. This singer/songwriter who was previously a member of the indie rock group, Easyworld, would be better classified as a storyteller-performer. Ford is known for using a "looping pedal" during his performances to layer the vocals, percussion, keyboard, and guitar--it makes for an extremely climactic flow of a show. His music is soft/indie rock and uses a lot of acoustic guitar and violins, giving its music a cinematic feel to it.
