Before I ever picked up a camera for #standwithme, I picked up a book on slavery.
As a storyteller, it's critical that we understand the story before we try to tell it. A 9-year-old girl wanted to fight one of the most abhorrent realities of human life by selling lemonade. And I needed to know more about that reality. In my research, I read Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave.
One scene in particular really struck me. And I find that what I took away from it echos how I've long felt about education.
Born into slavery, Douglass was sold to a relatively wealthy couple in Baltimore at age 7. There, the lady of the house, who had never owned enslaved people before, began to teach Douglass to read. Most slaves at that time were illiterate, so the opportunity to learn to read brought Douglass great hope.
But when her husband found out about this late night education, he reacted like many slave-holders did. He became enraged, beat Douglass, and ordered the lessons to stop.
That may seem confusing at first. I know it was to me. Why would some late night reading lessons be so threatening? Douglass's slaveholder understood the power of education—of education as a means to liberation. Douglass could better himself and his condition through knowledge. The slaveholder both knew and feared this.
Education is a tool to help you better yourself and your skills. When we at Stillmotion publish books, develop apps, and go all over the globe sharing what we know in workshops, people come up to us with the same question all the time: Why? Why do we share our process with others? People seem to find it hard to understand why we share what we've learned. And we always think it's such an odd question.
We believe that education frees people, helping them connect with what they do, be more intentional, and tell stronger stories.
Sometimes that even means they can fall in love again with the craft of filmmaking.
Those who contain their skills, rather than teach those skills, are so often doing so out of fear. A fear that if everyone knows how to properly light an interview, structure a story, and record pristine audio then their films will no longer stand out against others. That their films will be less important. And it comes from a fear of not being good enough.
It's not the camera, the lens, or the light. It's your approach, your action, and your vision.
That's what we empower and that's why we're so adamant about educating others.
"Knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave." – Frederick Douglass
Knowledge can set you free. Free of clients you don't connect with, creative you're not passionate about, and work that feels far more like a job than you'd ever imagined when you got into this.
This is why we teach. And this is why we're so excited to be a big part in building and launching the Academy of Storytellers.
And as we teach, we've learned. And a huge thing we've learned is that trying to teach everyone is like trying to make a movie for everyone. There's no one method or philosophy that resonates with every single person. When you try to say too much, you end up saying nothing at all.
The innovation behind the Academy of Storytellers is that we're able to make educational that is collaborative, entertaining, while also being story-first.
The Academy is different.
These are the top three ways the Academy of Storytellers is unlike any other educational offering out there for filmmakers.

NBA and NFL owners say parity requires a salary cap. MLB proves them wrong.
Originally Published: September 4, 2012By Howard Bryant | ESPN The Magazine
FORTY YEARS AGO, even as the reserve system was clinging to legitimacy, most of the baseball greats couldn't envision a future in which they weren't bound to their teams for life. Future Hall of Famers Willie Mays, Henry Aaron and Carl Yastrzemski, among others, failed to shoot down the owners' refrain that baseball would die with free agency.
Nearly half a century of history has discredited that position. In the free agent era, which began in 1976, players and owners ...

A Neston couple is hoping they will be able to get back into their home before Christmas after the damage caused by a chip pan fire.
Firefighters were called to David and Margaret Gill's house on Bendee Avenue just after 6pm on Friday 12 December 2014.
Margaret had gone out and David had decided to start tea and put a pan with oil inside on the hob.
David explained:"We don't have chips very often and hardly ever use a chip pan but I really fancied sausage, egg and chips so I put the pan of oil on the hob. While it was heating up I went into the front home and nodded off. The next thing I knew I woke up and rushed into the kitchen and saw the fire and smoke everywhere. I rushed next door and told my neighbour to call the Fire Service. I was frantic and frightened and thought to myself, 'I've got to do something' so I ran to the caravan and got a fire blanket and extinguisher and threw it over the stove."
Firefighters arrived at the scene and fully extinguished the fire and ventilated the house.
David suffered some smoke inhalation and was checked over by paramedics at the scene.
As Margaret returned home from her friends she saw the fire engines and ambulance outside her house. She was thankful her husband was alright but was shocked and upset by the mess inside.
She said: "I don't think anyone realises the level of damage fires like this can cause. It isn't isolated to one area, it spreads through the whole house. I was horrified when I was allowed inside and saw the damage, it broke my heart. I love Christmas and I had got everything ready and had family coming to stay but now we have had to change all our plans."
Watch Manager Paul Janion said: "This case highlights not only the dangers of chip pans but also the disastrous consequences of leaving cooking unattended. David and his wife currently have to deal with the upset of not being able to live in their home at the moment but the outcome could have been even worse if he had not woken up when he did.
"I want people to think about this case over the festive period when we are all more likely to be cooking more and entertaining in situations where it is easy to get distracted. Please ensure you do not leave your cooking unattended and if there is a fire don't take any risks, get out, stay out and call us out."

Firefighters from Red Watch attended a local White Ribbon Day event to support the campaign to stop domestic violence against women.
Joined by councillors, including Fire Authority member Tony Sherlock, and police, the crew supported the White Ribbon Pledge by taking part in a photograph standing behind a washing line full of a variety of men's white underwear.
Domestic abuse statistics show that 70% of incidents result in injury and that on average, two women in England and Wales are killed by a partner every week. Wearing a white ribbon represents that you will never condone, take part in or remain silent about domestic abuse against women.
Firefighters from Ellesmere Port rescued a Kestrel that had become trapped on a TV aerial.
The crew was called by the RSPCA to Station Road, Little Sutton, at 09:51 on 22 November.
They used a 10m ladder and a roof ladder to reach the ridge in order to release the bird which had become wrapped around the aerial when she had landed on it.
A hacksaw was used to cut through the aerial, which was then passed down to the crews and the RSPCA officer cut the bird free using wire cutters.
Watch Manager Phillip Barney said: "It was not an easy task for the firefighter but luckily the bird calmed down as he got close.
"Usually with this type of incident the bird would be injured but when she was placed into the back of the RSPCA van she walked around happily and was given a clean bill of health."
Primary school children in Ellesmere Port had a visit from their local firefighters who gave them road safety advice as part of Brake Road Safety Week.
The 87 children from Woodlands Primary School were helped to understand road positioning and blind spots, as well as the advantages of high visibility clothing and bike lights.
Crew Manager Andy Gray said: "Road safety is so important for everyone from pedestrians to drivers and cyclists. We used practical sessions to make the children aware of points such as if they can't see the wing mirror, the driver can't see them, and the importance of 'be safe be safe'. The kids seemed to enjoy it and hopefully took away some vital safety messages.'
Firefighters in Ellesmere Port came to the rescue of a family dog when they discovered a house fire while fitting smoke alarms in the property next door.
At around 3.35pm on Sunday 16 November, the crew was at a house on Hawthorn Road, Little Sutton when they heard a light beeping noise and a noticed a slight smell of smoke.
They investigated and when they looked through the letter box of the semi-detached house next door they saw it was full of smoke and the glass windows were hot to touch.
They immediately requested another fire engine, and with their breathing apparatus on, they broke down the door and began searching the property for any people inside and the location of the fire.
When they looked under the stairs, two firefighters found the family dog and rescued the King Charles Spaniel named Gabby-do.
The fire was found in the living room and extinguished using a hose reel jet.
Watch Manager Paul Janion said: "This fire could have been so much worse had the firefighters not heard the smoke alarm and investigated further. It is yet another example of the importance of having a working smoke alarm, they really do save lives and alert people to fires.
"We searched the house to make sure no one was inside and as we walked out the family arrived home, welcomed by their dog, which they must have feared the worst for. I am really pleased the crew were in the area at the time and prevented the fire spreading any further."
The house suffered fire and smoke damage to the living room and the rest of the house was also smoke damaged. The cause of the blaze is believed to be electrical as a result of a plug socket.
Buying and fitting smoke alarms could help you to save your home and the lives of your family.
A smoke alarm is a device that detects fire in its early stages and gives a loud audible warning.
Your smoke alarms needs regular maintenance:
Once a year replace the battery
Once a month check the alarm by pressing the test button
Once a year vacuum and wipe the smoke alarm casing to ensure dust isn't blocking the sensor chamber
If the alarm is mains powered alarms, switch it off first. Whatever happens, never remove the battery to use for other purposes
Remember, it's a lot easier to replace a dead battery!
Scouts from 1st Helsby had their knowledge tested when they visited Ellesmere Port Fire Station recently.
The firefighters told them about the different types of extinguishers they have and which one to use on different kinds of fires, as well as the information they should give when calling 999 and in the event of a fire in the home.
Watch Manager Garry Sawdy said: "Visits like this are something the young people really enjoy but are also a great opportunity for us to deliver vital safety information. We showed them how we receive emergency calls and demonstrated some of the equipment and I hope the group took away some useful information that could ultimately save their lives."
Fire officers in Ellesmere Port are working closely with partners in the area to ensure thebonfire period results in a reduction in deliberate fires.
Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service is also warning about the dangers of themisuse of fireworks and urging residents to take care and go to organiseddisplays.
In 2013 there were 20 incidents in Ellesmere Port, which is one more than theprevious year, and the town is still one of the busiest areas for firefighters,often dealing with nuisance deliberate fires.
Station Manager Paul Watts said: "This is always a busy time of year and wework closely with police, local authorities and youth projects, to educate andinvolve the local community in a bid to keep the number of incidents ofdeliberates as low as possible."
Most injuries throughout the bonfire period occur as a result of peoplebuilding their own bonfires, and setting off their own or misusing fireworks.
Paulcontinued: "Safety is the number one priority and our advice would always be togo to an organised display. People might see starting a small bonfire orsetting off fireworks as a bit of harmless fun, but fire is unpredictable andcan easily get out of control and spread, and all sorts of things can go wrongwith fireworks, so save your money and go to an organised event."
As well as engaging with young people and parents in a bid to educate people onthe consequences of nuisance fires, preventative action is also being takenwith the use of a waste recovery team to remove potentially nuisance ordangerous bonfires. In Ellesmere Port residents can report unlit bonfires toStreetScene on 0300 123 7026.
Over the bonfireperiod smaller fire engines, known as Targeted Response Vehicles (TRVs), willbe monitoring high risk areas to enable a quick response to small nuisancebonfires and act as a deterrent.
The public canalso do their bit to reduce the likelihood of deliberate fires by ensuringwheelie bins and rubbish are not left out in the open, once your bin has beenemptied please ensure you put it away securely.
Anyone withinformation about arson incidents in Ellesmere Port can call police on 101 oralternatively contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Firefighters and Prevention staff from Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service were out giving Winter Safe Driving advice to motorists outside Morrisons in Ellesmere Port over the weekend (11 October).
Nation Tyres were with the crew, providing free advice about tyre tread depths and safety. Local Police Community Support Officer's were also there giving safety advice to cyclists and offering electronic chips so the bikes can be traced back to the owner in the event of loss or theft.
White Watch Manager Garry Sawdy said: "This event was a great way for us to join up with partner agencies that have a shared objective with us in making sure people are prepared for the winter months on the road. It is really important that people prepare their vehicles for the cold and wet weather conditions, and are reminded of the dangers of the road to continually improve the safety of Cheshire's roads."
Firefighters from Ellesmere Port paid a visit to a local retirement home to promote fire safety messages as part of Ageing Safely Week.
Around 30 people were involved in the session at Hollymere Retirement village, talking about cooking safety and aiming to help reduce unwanted fire calls.
Watch Manager Garry Sawdy said: "The visit was focussed on building links with older people and providing vital fire safety information around escape routes, smoke detectors and cooking safety. We engage with the community with events like this all year round but these awareness weeks are a good way of targeting specific vulnerable groups, aiming to keep them safe in their homes."
Ellesmere Port Firefighters have taken part in a major training exercise where they acted out a mass decontamination process.
The crews were accompanied on the exercise by 70 students from Mid Cheshire College, who are currently on the Emergency Service Course. The students played the role of actors for the day to make the exercise as realistic as possible for the crews.
Woodford Lodge Sports Complex car park on Woodford Lane West was used for the scenario, where a suspected substance had leaked from a package, affecting the workers inside a building.
The students played the role of the workers and were required to go through a decontamination unit which was set up for the day.
Cheshire Police also took part in the exercise where fire engines from Winsford, Northwich, Crewe, Chester, Ellesmere Port and Runcorn attended.
Watch Manager Hannah Caulfield was the Exercise Commander. She said: "The was a National Resilience exercise and gave firefighters the chance to put into practice what they would be required to do if this scenario was real.
"By using the students it added an extra element and demonstrated how people might react when being decontaminated."
Ellesmere Port Station Manager Paul Watts said: "The exercise went well and was a great way of ensuring that our crews have the best possible training in preparation for a major emergency such as this."
Salvation Army also provided liquid refreshments for the crews.
Crews from Ellesmere Port were at Hapsford Services on Friday 15 August using the impactive 'Think' car to engage with drivers.
People from the Road Safety team were also there to draw the attention of motorists passing through Cheshire to the potential for serious injury or loss of life on the roads.
The emphasis of these events is to raise awareness of driver tiredness, taking regular breaks on long journeys, and the two second rule, where drivers keep a two second distance between them and the driver in front.
Watch Manager Garry Sawdy said: "All our work in the community at events like this are all ultimately aimed at improving the safety of Cheshire's roads. The 'Think' car is always a good focal point and way of attracting people over to talk to us so we can engage with drivers face to face and reaffirm the road safety messages that can ultimately save lives."
Firefighters from Ellesmere Port will be delivering fire safety advice to people as part of an event in the town.
The crews will be with other partner organisations on the green area at the end of Singleton Road/Malpas Road between 1pm and 4pm on Wednesday 30 July.
They will be talking to residents of the flats as well as people from the surrounding area, highlighting messages such as BBQ and camping safety over the holiday period, as well as fire safety in the home.
Watch Manager Garry Sawdy said: "It is important for us to get out to events like this as they are a great way for us to engage directly with people who live in the area but may not seek out advice, and just need some simple safety reminders.
"We will also be working with Plus Dane in trying to target some of the harder people to engage with to offer them safety information, highlighting the importance of having a working smoke alarm that is regularly tested, something that can ultimately save their life."
Ellesmere Port Fire Station is going to open its doors to the public on 2 August 2014, showcasing the range of ways they work to help and protect the public.
The free event will be on 11am to 3pm and will include a range of activities to involve all the family including road traffic collision demonstrations, chip pan and smoke tent demonstrations, a climbing wall, face painting, children's rides, a puppeteer, and much more.
There will also be modern and vintage appliances on display, as well as the Services largest appliance - the hydraulic platform.
Event Organiser, Firefighter Fred Beyeler said: "The open day is always a really good event and a great way for people to come and find out about their local station and what services we deliver to the public. There is certainly something for everyone and kids love the chance to go on a fire engine and see all the other demonstrations we put on. It is a fantastic opportunity for us to engage with the public, while still delivering some vital safety messages. I would encourage everyone to come along and have a look, a free event for the whole family to enjoy."
Free ice cream will also be available as well as other refreshments to purchase throughout the day .
The fire station is located on Wellington Road, Ellesmere Port, CH65 0EZGrass fire warning
The warmer weather and school holiday's often lead to an increase in this type of fire which can be extremely dangerous and spread quickly.
Crews in the town have been called to incidents this week (wc 21 July 2014), and with the sunshine set to continue for the time being the Service is reminding people to take extra care when out and about.
Ellesmere Port Station Manager Paul Watts said: "It is really important for people to be aware of the risks when it comes to grass fires as the dry weather can make conditions extremely dangerous. They can quickly get out of hand, cause extensive damage, and put lives at risk. Once a fire takes hold they can also last for several days, using up valuable Fire Service resources which could be needed elsewhere.
"Although there are a number of reasons why grass fires start, one of them is as a result of people starting them deliberately and I would urge parents to help us try and prevent this by talking to their children about the dangers."
By following a few simple precautions and showing a little extra care, many grass fires could be prevented:
Dispose of smoking materials properly and make sure they are completely extinguished.
Don't leave camp fires or barbecues unattended and extinguish them properly after use.
Clear away bottles, glasses and any broken glass to prevent them magnifying the sun's rays and starting a fire.
Explain to children the dangers of playing with lighted fires.
If a fire breaks out call the Fire and Rescue Service immediately. Remember, what looks like a small grass fire at the time can quickly turn into a major incident. Do not attempt to put the fire out yourself.
If anyone has any information about people starting fires deliberately they can report it anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0845 555 111 or by calling Cheshire Police on 101.

Four people had a fortunate early wake up call this morning (Thursday 3 July 2014), alerting them to a fire in an Ellesmere Port bungalow.
A smoke alarm, which had been fitted by Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service in July 2012 activated in the home, waking two of the occupants, who then woke up the other people inside.
Firefighters were called to Derwent Drive, Childer Thornton at 2:16am, where a candle on a bedside set of draws had melted down and set fire to the top of the draws.
Firefighters used a large fan to get the smoke out.
Watch Manager Carl Nevitt said: "Thankfully this fire was out when we arrived but this case highlights just how vital smoke alarms are – they do save lives, giving people valuable time to get out and call the fire and rescue service, and everyone should have them in their homes.
"Our advice to anyone who is alerted to a fire in their home is to where possible close the door on the fire, get out, stay out and call us out. It is important to always ensure your smoke alarms are working and people should regularly test them."
For information about fire safety and what to do in the event of a fire please visit www.cheshirefire.gov.uk
Here are some safety tips that will help you to use candles safely:
Outdoor candles should never be used indoors
Leave at least four inches (10 cms) between any two candles
Always use a suitable holder when burning candles
Keep loose clothing, hair or other fabrics away from flames
Children and pets should be supervised when close to candles
Make sure candles are put out before you go out
Consider an extra smoke alarm in the rooms that candles are burnt in
Don't put candles near curtains, or other fabrics or furniture and keep them out of draughts
Extinguish candles before moving them and don't let anything fall into the hot wax, like matchsticks
Candles should always be sited out of the reach of children and away from areas that pets can get into
Don't put them under shelves - make sure there's at least one metre (three feet) between a candle and any surface above it.
Use a snuffer or a spoon to put them out. Blowing them can send sparks and hot wax flying and double check that they are completely out and not still smouldering
Put them on a heat-resistant surface and be especially careful with night lights and tea lights, which get hot enough to melt plastic; TVs are not fire resistant objects
Don't leave them burning. You should extinguish candles before you leave a room; never go to sleep with a candle still burning and never leave a burning candle or oil burner in a child's bedroom
Firefighters from Ellesmere Port will be at Hapsford Services (on the M56 motorway) on Thursday 17 July engaging with drivers.
The event from 11am to 3pm gives the crews the opportunity to talk to people about a number of areas and give advice in a bid to improve the safety of the roads in Cheshire.
The emphasis of these events is to raise awareness of driver tiredness, taking regular breaks on long journeys, and the two second rule, where drivers keep a two second distance between them and the driver in front.
Watch Manager Carl Nevitt said: "These events are a great way for us to engage with drivers face to face and reaffirm the road safety messages that can ultimately save lives."
Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service is once again warning people about the dangers of over-charging e-cigarettes after a fire in Ellesmere Port.
Three fire engines attended a report of a flat fire on Westminster Road at 19:08 on Thursday 5 June.
Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used one hose reel jet to extinguish the blaze in a bedroom, and a large fan was then used to clear the smoke from the property.
Two women were inside the flat when the Service arrived and were led to safety by the crews and checked over by paramedics.
The cause of the fire was deemed to be an e-cigarette that had been left on charge throughout the day.
Watch Manager at Ellesmere Port Ant Fletcher said: "Thankfully no one was injured as a result of this fire and due to the bedroom door being closed the fire was contained to the bedroom and did not spread any further.
"The outcome could have been much worse which is why I want to use this case to stress the importance of people not leaving electrical items such as e-cigarettes on charge while they are away from the house or asleep, and the importance of closing doors to prevent fire spreading.
Head of Prevention and Protection for Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service Keith Brooks added: ""With the increasing popularity of e-cigarettes fire and rescue services across the UK have seen a number of incidents relating to them, and we need to make sure that people know the risks and how to charge them safely.
"Our advice for e-cigarettes is the same as for many smaller electrical appliances such as mobile phones and laptops - don't be tempted to buy cheap unbranded chargers, don't leave them to charge whilst you are out of the house or asleep and keep them well away from flammable materials."
Advice has been issued nationally to e-cigarette users after reports of several devices exploding while charging, causing minor fires:
Never leave e-cigarettes on charge unattended for long periods
Do not mix components of different e-cigarettes
Only use the charger supplied
Ensure you purchase your e-cigarette from a reputable source
Check the e-cigarette carries CE certification
Test your smoke alarm regularly
Close doors to prevent fire spreading
Contact Trading Standards over any e-cigarette safety concerns
Firefighters want to thank the people of Ellesmere Port for their generosity following their successful charity car wash on May 10.
Drivers turned out in force to support The Fire Fighters Charity. White Firefighter Graham McEnaney said: "Firefighters, fire cadets and teams of helpers with their buckets and sponges raised money for this worthy cause as well as handing out road safety advice at the Station. We'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who helped us raise an amazing £246."
Chair of the Fire Fighters Charity and Deputy Chief Fire Officer Mark Cashin said, "It is testament to the support we have from the public when events such as this show how generous people can be as a magnificent total of £246 was raised on the day.
"It costs over £9 million every year to keep The Fire Fighters Charity running and, with no government funding, it is completely reliant on donations from the general public and fire community."
Ellesmere Port firefighters showed their Prince's Trust Team what they do at Road Traffic Collisions, the kit they use and how to extricate a 'casualty'.

Marksman makes more sense honestly, given that the term attack damage carry is a misnomer.
The idea of what people call an ADC is a glass cannon, and glass cannons can't carry. Well... except maybe Vayne seeing as she doesn't need to be a puddle of goo to deal damage.
Of course some of the "marksmen's" ranges are too low to be worthy of being called that. Like the nerfed-to-hell Graves, for example. Vayne qualifies in that regard as well honestly.
Happy Firetrucks
Marksman is more precise.
"Carry" is a meaningless term and there are plenty of melee AD with good scaling so...
If you want another term convince the community to say "rad" for ranged attack damage.

They're called markmen in Infinite Crisis and I kind of facepalmed when I saw this change in League, but whatever. Minor thing, even if it sounds a little goofy.

Judge: Prosecutor Hid Evidence In Murder Trial
A judge in Cleveland has ordered new trials for three men convicted of a 1995 slaying because of what she says was "malicious suppression of evidence" by an assistant prosecutor.
Health officials investigating illnesses linked to an Ohio county fair have confirmed a strain of swine flu in nine cases and say it matches the virus that recently infected four people at an Indiana fair.
The 15-count indictment released Thursday is Franklin County's first under a new law targeting human trafficking in Ohio.
Tests indicate that crime scene DNA did not come from a former Akron police captain convicted of murdering his ex-wife 13 years ago.
The Ohio State Fair isn't just fried food, animals and fun and games. One state agency is all business at this year's Fair.
Supporters of a proposed constitutional amendment to legalize gay marriage in Ohio have always contended the effort is about human rights and equality. Now they're touting a new study that says same-sex marriage would help the state's economy.

growing fuchsia in DC
weiweidc(z7aDC)December 4, 2005
I was wondering if anyone had hints for growing fuchsia in DC. They do well until June when the temperatures soar into the 80s and 90s with nighttime temps in the 70s or higher. I was wondering if there were any hints for keeping them alive and doing well. Has anyone tried ice cubes at the base of plants to melt and cool the roots? Will this help or does the foliage have to be cool as well?
Thanks for your responses

deadheading Mallow
I have several plants in my garden that seem to be indentified in my garden book as Mallow or Malva. They are light purple with 5 petals, each with a "v" at the top.
They have been blooming for several weeks, but seem to be dying out. My book indicates they will bloom all summer.
My question is, do I need to pick off all the brown pods that have come on the plant? It's not a matter of cutting off a stem, as each stem has brown and green pods. Is the plant going to seed, and if so, will pulling each of these brown pods off cause it to rebloom? Sounds like a big job.
Thanks for your help.
I have the same plants! I cut off all the dead heads, which yes, is a long job. Mine rebloom all summer and even reseed a ton in the areas they are in! I cut off the blooms when the flowers fall out and there are just green little open ended pods on stems. Sometimes I just pull the little pods off with my finger nails.I kept a ton of seeds from mine last year after allowing them to dry out on the plant as well and replanted them around the garden, those also came up! So..yes....even cutting the green pods off will cause them to rebloom next year so I suggest plucking htem and throwing them out if you do not want more of them! Mine started blooming about 2 weeks ago and they will last ALL summer!
Thank you for your help. I'm still a little confused. My stems have both brown pods and green pods on the same stem. The green pods haven't bloomed yet, right? So, I need to pick off all the brown pods in order to keep them blooming. I've never done that before, and they only bloom a short time, but re-seed, and come back like gang busters the next year. So, please let me know if I should only pick off the brown ones, and I'll get started.
Thanks again,
The spent flower is the brown pods so pick them off. If you want to collect seed, save the little black seed discs inside the brown pods. The green pods are either the new flowers getting ready to bloom, or the end of a blooming flower (easy to tell). If you want to collect seed for re-seeding or trading, save from the brown pods, the seed is ripe in them. Not much to it!

Crack in River White Granite
Noticed this "crack" in granite 3 days after it was installed which was the first time I looked at it. River White granite. It is rough / raised when you run you hand over it. Can this type of thing be repaired to be imperceptible or should I be insisting on a new slab?
This post was edited by Clfx2go on Mon, Aug 11, 14 at 23:43
That slab was cracked and filled at the factory, I'll bet. There's no way it got to look so contaminated in three days.
I could make it look much nicer and nearly unable to be felt, but inconspicuous is going to be tough and invisible ain't happening.
Recently I looked at a remnant at a stone yard with a crack much like that one, colored the same. The dealer said the crack had been filled/repaired at the quarry. He also would not allow me to purchase the remnant for my sideboard (I did not mind the crack too awfully much) because he said it was, without a doubt, a big weak spot. He said he hopes and expects somebody to come along and take smaller pieces from either side of the crack. I desperately appreciated his honesty and integrity, even though it was "only" remnant and "only" a sideboard top and not even an active kitchen counter.
Don't accept that slab.
" because he said it was, without a doubt, a big weak spot."
He is mistaken. Modern adhesives are stronger than stone. I know this from taking seams apart. Even with saw kerf relief below, there's no promise it will break at the seam.
The pictured crack is a nice big fat one too with plenty of adhesive.

SHACC: "Cheers for Charity" on April 4 at Avila's El Ranchito.
MOSS ADAMS CAPITAL: Apparel and foowear market monitor highlights notable deals, stock prices and results.
Details on Industry Insight.
Zumiez beat its earnings guidance in the first quarter by cutting expenses and controlling inventory. Same-store sales declined 0.8 percent.
Here are some details.
Financials: Sales rose 14.4 percent to $78.7 million. Net income fell to $1.4 million from $1.6 million the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 31.2 percent, down slightly from the same period last year. Zumiez ended the quarter with $68.2 million in cash and securities.
Transactions: Store transactions declined, but units per transaction and dollars per transaction increased.
Inventory: Inventory per square foot declined by 8 percent. When Zumiez first saw the slowdown in November, merchandise teams immediately began lowering their open to buy plans. CEO Rich Brooks said Zumiez benefits because its model is based on branded goods produced by outside vendors. That allows Zumiez to not take an order, cancel orders, have vendors participate in markdowns or return goods.
Best categories: Skate hardgoods, boys apparel and shoes.
Worst categories: mens and womens apparel.
More on footwear: While better than some other categories, it still comped slightly negative. That is an improvement, however. Zumiez executives attributed this to three things: trend right shoes, especially with color; easier comparisons; and PacSun exiting the shoe business.
Tough markets: California, Arizona, Florida and Nevada combined posted negative same-store sales. Those states account for 31 percent of sales, or 29 percent of all stores. If those states combined had posted a flat comp, total company same-store sales would have increased 2.5 percent. Zumiez believes business in those states will remain challenging. In the long term, Zumiez still believes in the markets and will open 20 of its 57 new stores this year in those areas.
Strong markets: Texas, Illinois, Wisconsin and New Jersey.
Second half better than first half: The company believes sales will pick up in the back half of the year. Executives base this on their belief that: Zumiez is trend right; holiday will happen to some degree; and footwear will get a boost during back to school and holiday.
Guidance: Zumiez reaffirmed its guidance for the year. Sales should range from $430 million to $445 million. The company is assuming flat to a low single-digit comp increase for the year. Earnings per share should be 90 to 93 cents.

Home / War In Iraq
I see many news reports saying Mohammed Emwazi, aka "Jihadi John" went to Syria in 2012. CAGE says it was 2013.
In early 2013, Mohammed's father suggested that he should think about changing his name by deed poll, so that perhaps the name that he had been known under thus far, might not cause him further problems as he sought to travel. He complied with his father's suggestion, and before long officially became known as Mohammed al-Ayan.
With one final roll of the dice, Mohammed bought a ticket for Kuwait, and attempted to travel there. Once again, he was frustrated as he was barred from travel, and once again questioned by the security agencies.

The black-clad executioner in ISIS beheading videos has been identified by the media as Mohammed Emwazi. He grew up in London, graduated college, and according to CAGE, which corresponded with him, was harassed by British intelligence and prevented from leaving several times. He is originally from Kuwait. The BBC has more. [More...]

I really wish Twitter would stop deleting ISIS accounts. In the last three hours, 20 accounts I've been following are gone. This has been going on for weeks. I don't like one-sided news. ISIS accounts are a source of information. Following them and reporting about what they write or depict is not support. When I do write about something violent that I've read or watched, I don't provide the link or reproduce the content and insist commenters not post them in comments.
The pro-Kurdish accounts with equally violent graphics (and name-calling) aren't being deleted. There are also a lot of Jabhat al-Nusra twitter accounts being given free reign. Twitter should at least be consistent. If one side gets to stay, they all should. [More...]

The photo above is from ISIS' latest atrocity video depicting Peshmerga soldiers captured in Kirkuk. They are put in individual cages, driven in a caravan through the streets of Kirkuk which are filled with excited onlookers, and then lined up for execution. The video doesn't actually show their final fate, leaving it to the viewer's imagination. While there is a flash image inserted of the burning Jordanian pilot and another of the beheaded Coptic Christians, all of the ISIS figures appear to be have guns drawn, not knives.
This post is not about them, or the video, but why we shouldn't let our reactions to these propaganda videos -- usally a mix of shock, disgust and fear --lead us into war. [More....]

Isn't it a little strange that with so much international press coverage of the beheading of the 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians, no one has identified the beach in the video?
Everyone reports the Christians were kidnapped in Sirte. But when it comes to the beach, no one names it. It's mostly described as "a Libyan beach." Some think the beach is in western Libya near Tripoli. Others think it is in Sirte. (The video says Wilayat (province) of Tarabulus, which means Tripoli, but a province could encompass other towns in the region, including Sirte. Still, Sirte is 460 km from Tripoli, almost a 6 hour drive according to google maps.
One person tweeted it is 7 km west of Sirte, based on the lone palm tree in the background here: [More...]

I heard part of President Obama's speech on ISIS and extremism while driving today. The part I heard had to do with the causes of extremism. He said poverty, lack of options, and perceptions of mistreatment by those in power are big factors. He was careful to say not all poor youth become extremists, any more than all poor youth become criminals.
I think he was saying that being poor and not seeing any way out, along with feeling mistreated by those in power, makes one vulnerable to extremist ideology. I'd agree with that. [More...]

Today ISIS took the town of al Baghdadi in Anbar today, which is just a few miles from the Al Asad air base where more than 300 marines and Danish military are staying as part of a six week training course for the Iraqi forces.
There are media reports ISIS is attacking al Asad Air base. Is the air base in danger? First, the base is very large -- it is the size of Boulder, Colorado. It's hard to see how the marines would be "trapped" as some reports claim. Second, the base has been reporting ISIS has been striking it for weeks, but the U.S. says their attacks are too limited and haphazard to cause any real damage.
ISIS is definitely close to the base as the military today said it bombed an ISIS mortar position "near the Al Asad air base." [More...]

John Cantlie is back with a new video, which he says is "the last of this series." You can watch it here. I don't think it means he will be killed, just that future videos will be different. ISIS would be silly to kill him, he's the best public relations spokesman they have. Then again, ISIS likes to do things for shock value, and it would indeed be a shock to learn this personable Brit was killed, despite all he has done promoting the Islamic State. [More...]

A lot has been written about beheadings, and how it it must hurt the victim more and take a lot longer with a small knife like the one Jihadi John uses.
ISIS released some new beheading videos today (of soldiers and "magicians".) Check out the size of this sword. As bulky as the guy is who's wielding it, it looks almost as heavy as he is.

President Obama released a 29 page security plan to Congress today and said we must be careful not to overreach in the Middle East.
The United States cannot try to "dictate the trajectory of all unfolding events around the world" as it does not have infinite resources nor influence to tackle complex problems that cannot be fixed only with its military might, he said.
"We must always resist the overreach that comes when we make decisions based upon fear," Obama said.

ISIS released a statement today claiming American hostage Kayla Mueller was killed in a Jordanian bomb strike in Raqqa.
It provided photos of a bombed building, but none of Mueller. Mueller is the last known American hostage to be held by ISIS.
Long War Journal finds the claim "convenient".
While it is certainly possible Mueller has been killed, the Islamic State's description of how she was allegedly killed could very well be a crude attempt at propaganda.
ISIS also says the bombing of the building lasted an hour but no ISIS members were killed. It claims Ms. Mueller was killed by fire from the bombing.

When we last left off with Sheikh Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi (spiritual mentor to Al Qaida leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, bio here), he had just been jailed in Jordan for communicating with terrorists while working with U.S. lawyer Stanley Cohen to negotiate with Maqdisi's enemy ISIS to free Peter Kassig. The F.B.I. was aware of the effort, and paid for Cohen and his translator's travel. (Cohen began serving his own federal prison sentence on tax charges this month.)
Today Jordan confirmed it released Maqdisi two days ago. [More...]

Love it
By Missmomo
from Mississauga
We were looking for a couch that my husband could lie completely down on and still have room for me and this couch did the trick. We actually omitted the loveseat portion of the sectional and converted it to a long couch with a chaise which worked better for our space. It would be better if the back cushions came off and if the seat was a couple of inches deeper, but for the price and the look this is a great couch.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love the size of this sectionnal. Grey color matches with everything, easy to pair up with accessories of different colors. So comfy, firm but soft. Easy to move around, love that you can switch the cushion so the lounge chaise can be on either end.
Service and delivery comments:
Online ordering super easy; quick confirmation and delivery on time. Delivery guys assembled the whole sectionnal for us and explained to my husband the functionnalities of the sectionnal. I have nothing negative to say, perfect service!

About Me Budget Shopper
Wasn't my first choice, but I'm glad I ended up with this sectional! It's a great size, and very comfortable! It is firm yet soft. The colour is easy to match with any decor. Have only had it for almost 3 weeks, so I can't really comment on the durability yet, but it seems pretty solid. Love it!
Delivery people were friendly, kind, and mindful of the other furniture in my home. Even put the leg on for me and cleaned up the garbage :)

Great Sectional!
By Coops
from Edmonton, AB
We have this sectional in our living room so it gets used daily by the family and our two dogs. Stands up to constant abuse by the dogs due to the strong fabric used. With the right vaccuum, hair and other debris come off easily. Love this couch, it is extremely comfortable and can fit more people then a standard sectional can.
The Delivery was on time and they moved everything into my living room without damaging my new sectional or anything else on the way in.

Nice Sofa. Great Buy!
By queenoftheroad
from Niagara
Bought this for my basement. Very comfy. Versatile in terms of moving it around to different formations with the detached ottoman and bottom cushions. The back cushions are NOT removable. Two people can sleep on it easily. Could have had more color choices but luckily grey matched my décor. Only a few small problems with leg assembly: no instructions for which legs (there are two different sets) go where or where exactly to screw into the bottom of the sofa and not enough screws given to attach legs and you need a drill. We kind of guessed and used our own extra screws. But don't make a mistake. You'll never get those screws out (strip easily).
Prompt delivery. Price matched it. The location I bought it at was $100 more than online and "Toronto" area stores.

Cartoon: A Typical Friday Night In The Emergency DepartmentNo Comments »
Twenty years ago I started my job as 'Professor of Complementary Medicine' at the University of Exeter and became a full-time researcher of all matters related to alternative medicine. One issue that was discussed endlessly during these early days was the question whether alternative medicine can be investigated scientifically. There were many vociferous proponents of the view that it was too subtle, too individualised, too special for that and that it defied science in principle. Alternative medicine, they claimed, needed an alternative to science to be validated. I spent my time arguing the opposite, of course, and today there finally seems to be a consensus that alternative medicine can and should be submitted to scientific tests much like any other branch of health care.
Looking back at those debates, I think it is rather obvious why apologists of alternative medicine were so vehement about opposing scientific investigations: they suspected, perhaps even knew, that the results of such research would be mostly negative. Once the anti-scientists saw that they were fighting a lost battle, they changed their tune and adopted science – well sort of: they became pseudo-scientists ('if you cannot beat them, join them'). Their aim was to prevent disaster, namely the documentation of alternative medicine's uselessness by scientists. Meanwhile many of these 'anti-scientists turned pseudo-scientists' have made rather surprising careers out of their cunning role-change; professorships at respectable universities have mushroomed. Yes, pseudo-scientists have splendid prospects these days in the realm of alternative medicine.
The term 'pseudo-scientist' as I understand it describes a person who thinks he/she knows the truth about his/her subject well before he/she has done the actual research. A pseudo-scientist is keen to understand the rules of science in order to corrupt science; he/she aims at using the tools of science not to test his/her assumptions and hypotheses, but to prove that his/her preconceived ideas were correct.
So, how does one become a top pseudo-scientist? During the last 20 years, I have observed some of the careers with interest and think I know how it is done. Here are nine lessons which, if followed rigorously, will lead to success (… oh yes, in case I again have someone thick enough to complain about me misleading my readers: THIS POST IS SLIGHTLY TONGUE IN CHEEK).
These nine lessons can and should be modified to suit your particular situation, of course. Nothing here is written in stone. The one skill any pseudo-scientist must have is flexibility.
Every now and then, some smart arse is bound to attack you and claim that this is not rigorous science, that independent replications are required, that you are biased etc. etc. blah, blah, blah. Do not panic: either you ignore that person completely, or (in case there is a whole gang of nasty skeptics after you) you might just point out that:
In closing, allow me a final word about publishing. There are hundreds of alternative medicine journals out there to chose from. They will love your papers because they are uncompromising promotional. These journals all have one thing in common: they are run by apologists of alternative medicine who abhor to read anything negative about alternative medicine. Consequently hardly a critical word about alternative medicine will ever appear in these journals. If you want to make double sure that your paper does not get criticised during the peer-review process (this would require a revision, and you don't need extra work of that nature), you can suggest a friend for peer-reviewing it. In turn, you can offer to him/her that you do the same to him/her the next time he/she has an article to submit. This is how pseudo-scientists make sure that the body of pseudo-evidence for their pseudo-treatments is growing at a steady pace.
Dr. Ernst is a PM&R specialist and the author of 48 books and more than 1000 articles in the peer-reviewed medical literature. His most recent book, Trick or Treatment? Alternative Medicine on Trial is available from amazon. He blogs regularly at EdzardErnst.com and contributes occasionally to this blog.
In my last post I wrote about the communication difficulties caused by electronic medical records systems. The response on Twitter ranged from sentiments including everything from "right on, sister" to "greedy doctors are only complaining about EMRs because of their price tag." The disconnect between policy wonk's (and EMR vendor's) belief in the transformative power of EMRs and exasperated clinician users of these products is jaw-dropping. Physicians are often labeled as obstinate dinosaurs, blocking progress, while policy wonks are considered by physicians to be living in an alternate reality where a mobile phone app could fix all that is wrong with the healthcare system.
Being on the dinosaur side, I thought I'd try a quick experiment/analogy to demonstrate that EMR dissatisfaction is not a mere cost artifact. To show what happens when a digital intermediary runs medical information through a translator, I selected a random paragraph about the epidemiology of aphasias from an article in Medscape. I copied and pasted it into Google translator and then ran it backwards and forwards a few times in different languages. In the end, the original paragraph (exhibit A) became the second paragraph (exhibit B):
Exhibit A:
"Not enough data are available to evaluate differences in the incidence and clinical features of aphasia in men and women. Some studies suggest a lower incidence of aphasia in women because they may have more bilaterality of language function. Differences may also exist in aphasia type, with more women than men developing Wernicke aphasia."
Exhibit B:
"Prevalence and characteristics of men and women are expected to afasia is not enough information available. If afasia some studies, women work more, not less, because they show that the spoken language. There may be differences in the type of OST, women and men to develop more of a vernikke afasia, more."
Although the B paragraph bears some resemblance to A, it is nearly impossible to determine its original meaning. This is similar to what happens to medical notes in most current EMRs (except the paragraph would be broken up with lab values and vital signs from the past week or two). If your job were to read hundreds of pages of B-type paragraphs all day, what do you think would happen? Would you enthusiastically adopt this new technology? Or would you give up reading the notes completely? Would you need to spend hours of your day finding "work-arounds" to correct the paragraphs?
And what would you say if the government mandated that you use this new technology or face decreased reimbursement for treating patients? What if you needed to demonstrate "meaningful use" or dependency and integration of the translator into your daily workflow in order to keep your business afloat? What if the scope of the technology were continually expanded to include more and more written information so that everything from lab orders to medication lists to hospital discharges, nursing summaries, and physical therapy notes, etc. were legally required to go through the translator first? And if you pointed out that this was not improving communication but rather introducing new errors, harming patients, and stealing countless hours from direct clinical care, you would be called "change resistant" or "lazy."
And what if 68,000 new medical codes were added to the translator, so that you couldn't advance from paragraph to paragraph without selecting the correct code for a disease (such as gout) without reviewing 150 sub-type versions of the code. And then what if you were denied payment for treating a patient with gout because you did not select the correct code within the 150 subtypes? And then multiply that problem by every condition of every patient you ever see.
Clearly, the cost of the EMR is the main reason why physicians are not willing to adopt them without complaint. Good riddance to the 50% of doctors who say they're going to quit, retire, or reduce their work hours within the next three years. Without physicians to slow down the process of EMR adoption, we could really solve this healthcare crisis. Just add on a few mobile health apps and presto: we will finally have the quality, affordable, healthcare that Americans deserve.
