A user on the website Reddit, named Seenic, claims his bike was stolen and returned three days later with a ridiculous sort-of-apology letter and a coupon for a free dessert. The Thief claims he/she got "white girl wasted" and "borrowed the bike" to get home. Ugh. Even when thieves are returning your stuff they're the worst.
Customs officials at Bergamo Airport recently stopped an unnamed man trying to mail a giant prehistoric egg worth $125,000 to Los Angeles. When asked why he was trying to send a giant, 12,000 year-old "Elephant Bird" egg to the city of Angels he explained that it was a wedding gift. Customs officials aren't buying it and have apprehended him for trying to export a cultural item without permission, which could lead to jail time and a fine of up to $5,000.
A company has invented a new toy that can have an entire conversation with kids. It's called CogniToy, and it's a plastic dinosaur that is powered by IBM's super computer, Watson. So, it basically knows the answer to every question, and can even tell jokes, stories, and remember things. Parents – would you buy CogniToy?
Two men in Coffin Bay, Australia, had just finished golfing when they came along a kangaroo who was having a very bad day. Somehow, the kangaroo had gotten a watering can stuck on its head! After much trial and error, the heroic men were finally able to help the marsupial out, and we have the photos and video to prove it.
To learn about civics, a 4th grade class from Lincoln Akerman School in Hampton Falls, New Hampshire drafted a bill proposing to make the Red Tailed Hawk the official state raptor. Well, this week, when the bill reached the floor of the state legislature, they ripped it apart like a red tailed hawk eating a chipmunk. Before voting it down, the state politicians openly mocked it, complained about it, and even injected their own gross politics into the argument, all in front of a crushed group of 4th graders.
A 104-year-old woman in Fort Worth, Texas claims that the key to a long life is drinking Dr Pepper. Elizabeth Sullivan drinks 3 Dr Peppers a day, and is the ultimate Dr Pepper fan. So, the Dr Pepper Snapple Group personally sent Elizabeth a 104th birthday cake shaped like her favorite soda, and a gift bag full of all the Dr Pepper swag she could handle.

The Drunken Joy Ride of Emotion
Our desires and emotions are to be treated with extreme skepticism. Do not lead with them. I am not at all saying "don't feel them" or "all emotional experience is bad." Not at all. This is not Vulcan Christianity or stoicism.
Islamic Atrocities, the "Narrative of Redemption" and Christmas
The events in Sydney over the last 24 hours have not ruined Christmas. Nothing can ruin Christmas - for the coming of Jesus into the World is greater than any other event. If anything, the deaths of 3 people in the Lindt Café only serves to demonstrate just how wonderful and necessary Christmas is.
[Bumped For Very Obvious Reasons] 8.5 Things I Rejoice In This Post-Election Day
5) This isn't the Episcopal Church. Our country is far juster, far more interested in the rule of law, far more stable, far more popular, far less vicious, and far more conservative. It is completely within our power as conservatives—with God's help—to transform this country's political landscape if we so choose. It will be very hard and very long. The next two years will be appallingly painful. Every week or month, we'll be reminded of the judgement of God—and our challenge will be not to get angry, or despairing, or inactive, but rather to humble ourselves all over again, repent, acknowledge the horrible consequences of our compromises, corruption, passivity, and loss of principle, and continue turning away from the wrong path and seeking the right one.
Restarting the Game: Archbishop Welby Attempts To Hit The Reset Button
It's not a question of "how will the Communion divide"—that division, albeit internal, has already occurred. The further question is not "how can we all live together in the midst of our profound disagreements" but is rather "what is to be done with the Provinces which have engaged in intrinsically communion-dividing actions?"
Got Ice Water?
The idea that we shouldn't be able to indulge in something silly like the ice-water challenge because millions of African children are dying of thirst, says nothing about the wastefulness of Americans, and everything about the utter inability of Africa to take care of itself.
The utilitarian unity of burning at the stake and abortion
The Church thought it was sparing heretics eternal torment by burning them at the stake. Abortionists tell us they are sparing people from miserable earthly lives. Both ways, "It's for their own good."

Three Excuses for Bishop Salmon's Inexcusable Invitation
Can you imagine what Paul might say to this kind of hair splitting?

60 Theses on Real Integrity in the Anglican Church
The refusal to affirm a truth (particularly when it is a truth about God) is often just another way of denying it, but without taking responsibility for your denial. This is therefore a double dishonesty which only compounds the deceit.
"How am I gonna be an optimist about this?"
A modern city provides the visual for words evoking the historic catastrophe. It can happen again, and that isn't just a function of natural cycles. There are moral and even supernatural forces in play. There's always a sense that Pompeii had it coming. It's like Sodom and Gomorrah for folks who don't want to admit to that Old Testament God stuff.
A Declaration of Principles for Reconciliation
There are only two words to be spoken to false teachers: "repent" and "recant" along with the assurance that forgiveness and warm welcome await those who heed the call. We will not take part in the indaba process which results only in providing false teachings and false teachers with equal footing and equal voice alongside the teachings of Christ through his apostles
BREAKING: Welby names Tory Baucum as "Canterbury Preacher"
At Stand Firm we suspect there may be some who will question Tory's "commitment to the present day reformation" given his willingness to affirm Johnston's ministry. It will be viewed by them as a compromised commitment.
Walking and Talking
Let it be a small reminder of how hostile the world is to the Gospel, and a small reminder of what you've signed up for when you agreed to take up your cross. The world - in this case represented by gay activists and the media who kowtow to them - hates you. They hate your family, they hate your values, and they especially hate this Jesus.

Many consumers take precautions against identity theft, but what about medical identity theft? In addition to financial peril, victims can suffer physical danger if false entries in medical records lead to the wrong treatment.
The crime occurs when someone uses a person's name and sometimes other parts of their identity -- such as insurance information -- without the person's knowledge or consent to obtain medical services or goods, said Laurinda B. Harman, PhD, RHIA, associate professor and chair of the health information management department at Temple Universitys College of Health Professions.
A person's identity information can also be used to make false claims for medical services or goods. This is not a common event, but patients need to be aware of it, Harman said. She will discuss the growing concerns of medical identity theft as more medical facilities move to electronic records during the 79th Annual American Health Information Management Association Convention Exhibit on October 9 in Philadelphia.
The World Privacy Forum, a non profit, non partisan research group, said it has received 20,000 reports of medical identity theft in the past 15 years.
Medical identity theft frequently results in erroneous entries being put into existing medical records, and can involve the creation of fictitious medical records in the victim's name at various medical facilities. This trail of falsified information in medical records can plague victims' medical and financial lives for years.
In Pennsylvania, two men were convicted of health insurance fraud, theft by deception, identity theft and forgery in 2006. Galen Baker stole a coworker's identification to obtain nearly 40 individual prescriptions for Viagra, a drug typically prescribed to treat erectile dysfunction. Daniel Sullivan stole a man's medical identification to pay for more than $140,000 in hospital charges. In other cases, health care employees stole medical rec

#122: Eat Smart to Run Better [Rerun]
[Note: We're hard at work on our third book this summer, so today's podcast has previously aired. Don't worry - we'll be back next week with a new show!]
Dimity and Sarah serve up a conversation with Cassie Dimmick, a sports dietician and certified running coach in Springfield, Missouri. She's also a mother runner who knocked 45 minutes off her marathon PR by making a few simple changes to her diet and training so this woman practices what she preaches. According to Cassie, our gut needs to be trained just like muscles and heart do, so she talks about how to be well fueled for a run and how to deal with GI issues during and after a race…

This is our frequent preamble into talking about JustGoGirl pads, which were designed by an active mom of five who was fed up with "athletic leakage."

10 Secrets to a Successful Long Run
As we're finishing up our third mother runner book, we're going green this summer and recycling some of our blog posts. This post originally appeared on our site on August 23, 2010
Just call me the Britney Spears of running as, ooops, I did it again: Ran longer than intended. Got myself all turned around in a hilly, deserted cemetery and ended up running 20.5 miles instead of scheduled 18. Yet I felt great on the run and afterward. It got me thinking about what I'd done so I could repeat it on other go-long forays leading up to the Portland Marathon. Here are my top 10 secrets to successful long runs:

...combine it with nickel and you've got yourself a battery. Now that's positive... and negative.
Lemons are an interesting fruit. They are incredibly sour to the point of being inedible as-is, this makes it evolutionarily disadvantaged since more tasty fruits would seemingly have an advantage. However, here we are with literally millions of lemon trees. What can we do with these sour fruits? Lemonade!
So when life hands you cadmium, make Ni-Cad batteries!
...substituting the more dangerous heavy metal cadmium
Everybody knows a proper Rudolph is made from tritium, not cadmium. Damn imitation radioactive children's toys... buy american: We use 100% Tritium in our glow in the dark toys!
you do realise the idea of free markets is not anarchy, right? it's about allowing businesses to run themselves, not do "what ever they want", there's a subtle difference some people seem to have a mental block with.
Yeah. And those people usually call themselves "libertarians".
Kids don't get enough nickels in their allowance to make Ni-Cads.
You could mow my lawn, seeing as you're already standing on it.
How many people know that cadmium is a poison? Do you think that the jewelry in question had a warning label on it that said something to the effect of "this product is toxic and will cause brain damage"?
It did have a label. It said :
"New ! Now with cadmium for your likeness ! Rodulf will make happy happy red noose ! Many like ! Wishes for new chrisass ! (not to be et. made in China)"

Drivers warned ahead of sub-zero temperatures for Cumbria
Last updated at 17:35, Wednesday, 05 December 2012
MOTORISTS in Cumbria have been warned to take extra care over the next 24 to 36 hours.
The Met Office have issued a yellow warning for snow with up to 10cm expected in the east of the county tomorrow.
A widespread sharp frost is expected tonight, with temperatures in the county between -3C to -7C.
Anyone driving or travelling is advised to be prepared for rain falling on sub-zero surfaces, or surfaces re-freezing after the rain has moved on, leaving potentially treacherous road and pavement conditions.
Rain is also expected in Cumbria tomorrow morning, with intermittent spells of sleet or snow, even at lower levels.
In Barrow the risk of freezing conditions extends until Wednesday afternoon, with snow expected in the early hours of Thursday morning.
The greatest risk of disruption to transport is liable to be across the eastern parts of Cumbria where up to 10cm of snow is possible on ground above 300m.
The higher trans-Pennine routes out of the county and the Kirkstone Pass and Kendal to Shap routes are at risk of some disruption.
Further rain is likely during Thursday evening with more sleet or snow higher up and the possibility of some additional accumulation of snow, typically above 250-300m.
Motorists are reminded to check their vehicle's tyre pressure, reduce speed where necessary and avoid sharp braking.
The county council's gritters will also be deployed across priority areas around Cumbria and residents are urged to access their local grit bins to use on footways.
More information on bins can be found at www.cumbria.gov.uk/roads-transport/highways-pavements/highway-maintenance/wintermaintenance/saltbinsforcumbria.asp

The studies in Weaving a Lexicon make a significant contribution to the growing field of lexical acquisition by considering the multidimensional way in which infants and children acquire the lexicon of their native language. They examine the many strands of knowledge and skill—including perceptual sensitivities, conceptual and semantic constraints, and communicative intent— that children must weave together in the process of word learning, and show the different mix of these factors used at different developmental points. In considering the many different factors at work, the contributors avoid both the "either-or" approach, which singles out one strand to explain word learning throughout childhood, and the "all-inclusive" approach, which considers the melange of factors together. Their goal is to discover precisely which strands of ability or understanding make which contributions to acquisition at which points in infancy and childhood.
The nineteen chapters are arranged in two broadly thematic sections. The chapters in "Initial Acquisitions," focus on issues involved in word learning during infancy, including how learners represent the sound patterns of words, infants' use of action knowledge to understand the meaning of words, and the links between early word learning and conceptual organization. In "Later Acquisitions," the chapters treat topics concerning the stages of toddler and preschooler language acquisition, including part-of- speech information in word learning, the proper-count distinction, and a comparison of verb acquisition in English and Spanish. Because the contributors present their work in the broader context of the interconnection of different processes in lexical acquisition, the chapters in Weaving a Lexicon should suggest new directions for research in the field.
A massive reference work on the scale of MITECS (The MIT Encyclopedia of Cognitive Sciences), The MIT Encyclopedia of Communication Disorders will become the standard reference in this field for both research and clinical use. It offers almost 200 detailed entries, covering the entire range of communication and speech disorders in children and adults, from basic science to clinical diagnosis.MITECD is divided into four sections that reflect the standard categories within the field (also known as speech-language pathology and audiology): Voice, Speech, Language, and Hearing. Within each category, entries are organized into three subsections: Basic Science, Disorders, and Clinical Management. Basic Science includes relevant information on normal anatomy and physiology, physics, psychology and psychophysics, and linguistics; this provides a scientific foundation for entries in the other subsections. The entries that appear under Disorders offer information on the definition and characterization of specific disorders, and tools for their identification and assessment. The Clinical Management subsection describes appropriate interventions, including behavioral, pharmacological, surgical, and prosthetic.Because the approach to communication disorders can be quite different for children and adults, many topics include separate entries reflecting this. Although some disorders that are first diagnosed in childhood may persist in some form throughout adulthood, many disorders can have an onset in either childhood or adulthood, and the timing of onset can have many implications for both assessment and intervention.Topics covered in MITECD include cochlear implants for children and adults, pitch perception, tinnitus, alaryngeal voice and speech rehabilitation, neural mechanisms of vocalization, holistic voice therapy techniques, computer-based approaches to children?s speech and language disorders, neurogenic mutism, regional dialect, agrammatism, global aphasia, and psychosocial problems associated with communicative disorders.
This book can be read on two levels: as a novel empirical study of wh- interrogatives and relative constructions in a variety of languages and as a theoretical investigation of chain formation in grammar.
The book is divided into two parts. Part I investigates the distribution and interpretation of multiple wh- interrogative constructions, focusing on the workings of Superiority. Part II investigates the structure and derivation of relative constructions. The main languages discussed are Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, and English. The theoretical materials are in the generative grammar tradition.
This is a representative collection of the work of one of the world's leading scholars in the area of speech acoustics. It follows the development over the past 15 years of research presented in the author's previous publications on speech analysis, feature theory, and applications to language descriptions. Most of the articles have had very restricted distribution—many appearing only in the Quarterly Progress Reports issued by Dr. Fant's laboratory.
The first part of the book covers manifold aspects of speech analysis such as instrumental techniques, spectrum data, formant statistics with an emphasis on Swedish vowels and stops, speaker dependencies, normalization procedures, production theory, and coarticulation. The second part analyzes established feature systems and suggests revisions and general discussions on the concept of distinctive features, perception, and the applicability of feature theory to automatic speech recognition. Articles in this part of the book are especially valuable because they represent Dr. Fant's work on "inherent" features and their phonetic correlates as it has evolved since his collaboration in 1952 with Roman Jakobson and Morris Halle.
Speech Sounds and Features is the fourth volume in the series Current Studies in Linguistics.
One of the most important and controversial topics in the field of visual attention is the nature of the units of attentional selection. Traditional models have characterized attention in spatial terms, as a "spotlight" that moves around the visual field, applying processing resources to whatever falls within that spatial region. Recent models of attention, in contrast, suggest that in some cases the underlying units of selection are discrete visual objects and that attention may be limited by the number of objects that can be simultaneously selected.
Objects and Attention explores the idea that attention and objecthood are intimately and importantly related. In addition to reviewing the evidence for object-based attention and exploring what can "count" as an object of attention, it examines how such issues relate to other sensory modalities, such as auditory objects of attention, and to other areas of cognitive science, such as the infant's object concept. The book has applications to work in experimental cognitive psychology, neuropsychology and cognitive neuroscience, philosophy of mind, developmental psychology, computer modeling, and the psychology of audition.
How do children learn that the word "dog" refers not to all four-legged animals, and not just to Ralph, but to all members of a particular species? How do they learn the meanings of verbs like "think," adjectives like "good," and words for abstract entities such as "mortgage" and "story"? The acquisition of word meaning is one of the fundamental issues in the study of mind.
According to Paul Bloom, children learn words through sophisticated cognitive abilities that exist for other purposes. These include the ability to infer others' intentions, the ability to acquire concepts, an appreciation of syntactic structure, and certain general learning and memory abilities. Although other researchers have associated word learning with some of these capacities, Bloom is the first to show how a complete explanation requires all of them. The acquisition of even simple nouns requires rich conceptual, social, and linguistic capacities interacting in complex ways.
This book requires no background in psychology or linguistics and is written in a clear, engaging style. Topics include the effects of language on spatial reasoning, the origin of essentialist beliefs, and the young child's understanding of representational art. The book should appeal to general readers interested in language and cognition as well as to researchers in the field.
A machine for language? Certainly, say the neurophysiologists, busy studying the language specializations of the human brain and trying to identify their evolutionary antecedents. Linguists such as Noam Chomsky talk about machinelike "modules" in the brain for syntax, arguing that language is more an instinct (a complex behavior triggered by simple environmental stimuli) than an acquired skill like riding a bicycle.
But structured language presents the same evolutionary problems as feathered forelimbs for flight: you need a lot of specializations to fly even a little bit. How do you get them, if evolution has no foresight and the intermediate stages do not have intermediate payoffs? Some say that the Darwinian scheme for gradual species self-improvement cannot explain our most valued human capability, the one that sets us so far above the apes, language itself.
William Calvin and Derek Bickerton suggest that other evolutionary developments, not directly related to language, allowed language to evolve in a way that eventually promoted a Chomskian syntax. They compare these intermediate behaviors to the curb-cuts originally intended for wheelchair users. Their usefulness was soon discovered by users of strollers, shopping carts, rollerblades, and so on. The authors argue that reciprocal altruism and ballistic movement planning were "curb-cuts" that indirectly promoted the formation of structured language. Written in the form of a dialogue set in Bellagio, Italy, Lingua ex Machina presents an engaging challenge to those who view the human capacity for language as a winner-take-all war between Chomsky and Darwin.
In this book Mark Steedman argues that the surface syntax of natural languages maps spoken and written forms directly to a compositional semantic representation that includes predicate-argument structure, quantification, and information structure, without constructing any intervening structural representation. His purpose is to construct a principled theory of natural grammar that is directly compatible with both explanatory linguistic accounts of a number of problematic syntactic phenomena and a straightforward computational account of the way sentences are mapped onto representations of meaning. The radical nature of Steedman's proposal stems from his claim that much of the apparent complexity of syntax, prosody, and processing follows from the lexical specification of the grammar and from the involvement of a small number of universal rule-types for combining predicates and arguments. These syntactic operations are related to the combinators of Combinatory Logic, engendering a much freer definition of derivational constituency than is traditionally assumed. This property allows Combinatory Categorial Grammar to capture elegantly the structure and interpretation of coordination and intonation contour in English as well as some well-known interactions between word order, coordination, and relativization across a number of other languages. It also allows more direct compatibility with incremental semantic interpretation during parsing.
The book covers topics in formal linguistics, intonational phonology, computational linguistics, and experimental psycholinguistics, presenting them as an integrated theory of the language faculty in a form accessible to readers from any of those fields.
Recent work in theoretical syntax has revealed the strong explanatory power of the notions of economy, competition, and optimization. Building grammars entirely upon these elements, Optimality Theory syntax provides a theory of universal grammar with a formally precise and strongly restricted theory of universal typology: cross-linguistic variation arises exclusively from the conflict among universal principles.
Beginning with a general introduction to Optimality Theory syntax, this volume provides a comprehensive overview of the state of the art, as represented by the work of the leading developers of the theory. The broad range of topics treated includes morphosyntax (case, inflection, voice, and cliticization), the syntax of reference (control, anaphora, an pronominalization), the gammar of clauses (complementizers and their absence), and grammatical and discourse effects in word order. Among the theoretical themes running throughout are the interplay between faithfulness and markedness, and various questions of typology and of inventory.

Using sentence comprehension as a case study for all of cognitive science, David Townsend and Thomas Bever offer an integration of two major approaches, the symbolic-computational and the associative-connectionist. The symbolic-computational approach emphasizes the formal manipulation of symbols that underlies creative aspects of language behavior. The associative-connectionist approach captures the intuition that most behaviors consist of accumulated habits. The authors argue that the sentence is the natural level at which associative and symbolic information merge during comprehension.
The authors develop and support an analysis-by-synthesis model that integrates associative and symbolic information in sentence comprehension. This integration resolves problems each approach faces when considered independently. The authors review classic and contemporary symbolic and associative theories of sentence comprehension, and show how recent developments in syntactic theory fit well with the integrated analysis-by-synthesis model. They offer analytic, experimental, and neurological evidence for their model and discuss its implications for broader issues in cognitive science, including the logical necessity of an integration of symbolic and connectionist approaches in the field.

- Download each one (from its link above) into a directory on your file system, for example,
- Download the JIRA source archive from http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/JIRASourceDownloads.jspa.
You will need to log in as a user with a commercial license to access this page.
Anchor extractjirasource extractjirasource
- Extract the JIRA source archive to a location of your choice. This will create a subdirectory with the name
atlassian-jira-X.Y-source, where X.Y is your version of JIRA. For example,
Change directory into this subdirectory and build JIRA by executing the following Maven 2 command. For example,
On Windows:
Code Block
C:\atlassian-jira-4.3-source\> build.bat
On Mac/Linux:
Code Block
> build.sh
The build script will download several dependencies from Atlassian's public Maven repository.
On rare occasions, however, the build process may fail and you may receive an error similar to the one encountered when an Atlassian product is unable to install a plugin from Atlassian's public Maven repository. This problem is caused by the JVM being unable to access its default 'cacerts' file, which contains a certificate that trusts Atlassian's public Maven repository.
To resolve this problem:
- Try one of the solutions mentioned in the Confluence Knowledge Base article: Unable to Install Plugin Due to Maven SSL.
- If that does not resolve the problem, you may have a 'jssecacerts' file which does not contain a certificate that trusts Atlassian's public Maven repository. If a 'jssecacerts' file is present in your JVM, the 'cacerts' file may be ignored.
- A WAR file called
jira-webapp-dist-X.Y.war(where X.Y is your version of JIRA), will be built in the
jira-project/jira-distribution/jira-webapp-dist/targetsubdirectory of your extracted JIRA source directory.
For example, if the subdirectory created above was
C:\atlassian-jira-4.3-source, the WAR file will be found in:
An unpacked version of your JIRA source build can also be found in the
jira-project/jira-distribution/jira-webapp-dist/target/jira-webapp-dist-X.Ysubdirectory of your extracted JIRA source directory.
- The WAR file generated can now be installed into your application server to run the JIRA application you just built. For more information, refer to the JIRA WAR Configuration Overview. For specific installation instructions, you can follow these procedures, skipping stages 1 and 3:
When building JIRA from source, Maven will fetch the binary (compiled) dependencies that it requires automatically during the build process, so you do not have to do it manually (with the exception of the third party libraries mentioned above).
It is worth noting that JIRA's source distribution not only ships with JIRA's source code, it also includes the source of the internal Atlassian projects that JIRA depends on (e.g. atlassian-bonnie, atlassian-core, etc.). These internal Atlassian dependencies are also built from source when you build JIRA.

The idea was to create a street fashion brand, a brand that represented street fashion - not streetwear. WeSC felt that the purpose contained more than just t-shirts and jeans, a broader selection of clothing for men and women. None of what they wanted to achieve was to be found in the distribution network that they related to. Today WeSC is available in more than 20 countries around the world.
WeSC is addressing people with awareness, regardless of race, religion or financial background. These people all share the values and lifestyle of the WeSC founders. They deliver 'life after skate', a more developed style that also targets people outside the skateboard community, but still shares its values. The particular 'We-feeling' and community feeling in the skateboard culture is an ever present important key element in day to day operations of the company.

We stayed at this hotel for the night before our cruise. The pickup at the airport was fast and the driver was very friendly. I wish I could remember his name but he also worked the front desk. When we got there we had a fast check in. They also gave us the name of a great sports bar to eat right down the street. The room was nice and very quite and the free breakfast was very good and enough to choose from.There was some error in getting the shuttle to pick us up to take us to the pier in the morning because we had to wait a long time for it to show up.
I would recommend this hotel for a night stay.

PARIS - Tapping into a new and often more audience-friendly generation of directors and producers from Eastern Europe, Paris-based sales-production house Wide Management has made first major deal on Karlovy Vary player "Barbarians," pre-selling Japan to Animoproduce.
Serbian Ivan Ikic's first feature, "Barbarians" world premieres July 6 in competition at Karlovy Vary's East of the West section.
On the run, cold-shouldered by former friends, as protests build in Belgrade at Kosovo's independence, Luka prepares to meet the father who also abandoned him many years before.
A portrait of a no-job, no-future generation, "Barbarians" bears comparison to 2013 Rotterdam Tiger winner "Clip," helmed by fellow Serb Mila Milos, said Wide Management prexy Loic Magneron.
"Turning on a son who looks for his father, it's a very strong, emotional film," he added.
"There is an exciting brand new generation of directors and producers emerging in Eastern Europe, that are more audience-orientated, focus on the screenplay and have high production values, which it's very important to follow, instancing two titles on Wide's sales slate: "The Man in the Orange Jacket," Latvian Aik Karapetian's follow-up to "People Out There," which played East of the West in 2012, and "Roseville," by Bulgaria's Martin Makariev.
"These new films maintain artistic quality but think about audiences," Magneron added.
An auteur genre mix of arthouse, thriller and horror, per Magneron, "Jacket" will world premiere in the Camera Lucida competition at Montreal's Fantasia Festival, one of North America's preeminent genre meets, running July 17 - Aug. 4.
A paranormal/horror thriller that won best actor (Plamen Manassiev) and shared best actress (Lydia Indjova) at June 6's Bulgarian Film Awards, "Roseville" "draws on the classic codes of genre films," "Roseville" is inspired by a multiple homicide at an isolated mountain hut.
Wide Management is also building relationships with key production houses in Eastern Europe. "Jacket" is the latest film from Latvia's Roberts Vinovskis at Locomotive Productions, the main co-producer on "The Gambler," lead-produced by Lithuania's Studio Uljana Kim and again sold by Wide Management.
A buzz title at San Sebastian's New Directors section, where it world premiered, Ignas Jonynas' first solo feature, about a paramedic who can't kick the tables and begins to play a dangerous game with his patients' lives, "The Gambler" has had a distinguished festival career, winning a Special Jury Award at 2013's Warsaw Festival, sweeping Lithuania's 2014 Silver Cranes, snagging six plaudits including picture, director and actor (Vytautas Kaniusonis), snagging screenplay and actor at Festroia and a Special Jury Award at 2014's Europe Around Europe Festival.
Said Magneron: "In small countries, where there is not so much state support, filmmakers have to make films with strong screenplays. There are very interesting directors emerging."
Wide Management and Poland's Prasa & Film have also re-teamed, Wide repping world sales rights on Prasa's "Summer Solstice," now in post production.
Directed by Michal Rogalski, the 1943-set romantic drama delivering a Polish vision on World War II's more human side through the loves of four characters: a Polish villager, a German soldier, a Jewish escapee, and the well-to-do daughter of a Polish farmer.
Wide already sold Jacek Borcuch's 2009 punk-band themed "All That I Love," a breakout sales hit for Prasa and Wide, which was also Poland's Academy Award submission.
Wide Management is also pre-selling "Panama," from first-time Serb director Pavle Vuckovic, another film by a young director about Eastern Europe's young generation, and how social media, pornography and vanity can obstruct the true emotions of love.
Now shooting, it turns on a young man, Jovan, who dedicates his life to clubbing and casual sex until he meets Maja, a girl who posts home video clips on the Internet and place-marks on the Internet. One day he learns Maja has moved to Panama and he realizes, shocked, that what he had with Maja was love.
Produced by Belgrade's Collapse Films, "'Panama' depicts coming of age through a destructive love affair," said director Vuckovic.
"It portrays the fear, pain and joy that appear when two lovers, who are spiritually, emotionally and physically bound - suppress their emotions."
Emmanuelle de Courtois will attend Karlovy Vary for Wide Management; Patricia Mancini will rep titles at WideHouse documentary sales company.

I finally have tomatoes growing!
This year I finally have tomatoes growing on my plants. Last year I believe I started my seeds at the wrong time because I followed the information on the seed packet. Growing in South Florida is challenging because I really had to do research into when tomatoes can produce here. Also the root knot nematodes completely destroyed my plants last year too, so this year I've decided to grow in containers with Miracle Gro moisture control and I have to say that it's really good!
This year I am growing Money Maker tomatoes. They're still green right now but I am waiting for them to ripen right on the vine. Here's some pictures right now.

awsumth, congratulations on the healthy plants and fruit.
You might want to do something about the leaning tomato ring before gravity/wind/storm pull the entire plant over.
[I grew dwarfs and smaller plants in pots last year, and Remy Rouge -- only about 3 1/2 - 4' tall, having lost half its bulk to Late Blight -- bent its thin wire rings and toppled its pot multiple times.
This year, the French tomato database Ventmarin has added to its entry for Remy Rouge and lists the height as 6-7'. Now they tell me.]
I got my first tomato from it! It's smaller than some of the other ones but it had some of the most amazing flavor I have had in a while.
"Those tomatoes are the color of my envy!"
I have attempted growing them so many times! When I first tried them I tried growing them in the ground, but the nematodes in the soil completely killed them. Then I tried doing them in containers, and there was a horrible whitefly problem at the time. Now I have them in bigger containers, and I tried the moisture control type of miracle gro, and it doesn't turn to mud like the regular one does, so watering is much easier! They do go through a half- to a full-gallon of water every day.
Looking out at the ice here, 65 north of NYC.
Then I see your post. Then I smile.
Fantastic job. And, though you didn't know it, you gave everyone up north a little glimpse into what we look forward to and live for every year. Our tomato gardens!
In 8 weeks, I start my seeds. All from my beautiful heirloom plants. 34 or so varieties.
Thanks for the bump. I can't wait for summer and a few 2-3 pounders!!!!!
Fantastic job. And, though you didn't know it, you gave everyone up north a little glimpse into what we look forward to and live for every year. Our tomato gardens!
Aw, thanks. I really do feel like I did after reading everyone's messages. I am so psyched to start trying more varieties.
Happy Gardening!
I'm in Central FL (zone 9) and last year was my first year gardening here. Yours look great! I planted tomatoes in containers in past years and they did real well. This year I planted a cherry tomato and an heirloom Black Krim, and I'm doing a raised bed.
Tell me how the raised bed does Wipa. I had a problem with nematodes getting into a potted plant once!
ameera, I have mine in a tomato cage and now I've added some 8' bamboo sticks to support the plant and the cages. I pinch the very top of the growth now so they will branch out more instead of growing taller.

On Tallying Up The Cost of an All-Expenses Paid Trip
Now I need to google you to see which celebrities you've written about recently! Sounds amazing :)
On Marriage As A Strategic Life-Planning Decision
Does a satanic church count as a "similar social organization?"
On Your Friendship Is Above My Pay Grade
@eatmoredumplings I think there are tradeoffs here. If it's close to the wedding, friends may have to take more days off work. Weddings are usually weekend affairs, so to have to arrive in town for an event on, say, Thursday would involve more time off than doing a weekend jaunt at some point. Also depends what kind of bachelorette party your friends want to throw you. If it's something rowdier than dinner and dessert, you probably don't want to do it so close to the wedding.
On Your Friendship Is Above My Pay Grade
There is no rule of etiquette that says you must buy a gift equivalent to the cost of your meal. How would you even know that amount? I can't imagine any couple being rude enough to hint at that expectation, and if they do, they're not good friends. A gift is a gift. I know plenty of people who make their own gifts (pottery, for example). A good registry also has a wide range of price points. If you can't afford or make a gift, it's perfectly acceptable to decline an invitation. Unless it's your BFF, the couple probably won't be devastated by your absence. Buy them a drink the next time you hang out. In terms of low-key hangouts in general, why wait around for others to ask? People are wrapped up in their own lives, and dinner at a restaurant just seems like an easy thing to propose. If you want to save money and see your friends, take it upon yourself to invite them over, or ask them to meet you for something free or cheap. You'll only be disappointed if you expect people to read your mind.
On Open Thread: Parental Assistance
@andnowlights law degree, plus a master's. At a fancy university in an expensive city. Yea, it's a lot. Wouldn't do anything differently, though. It was the only path to the career I want, and with the legal job market I wanted the best school I could get. Mine is pretty damn good.
On Open Thread: Parental Assistance
It's impossible to tally up all the money my parents have spent on me since I turned 18, but here are the big things. It helps ALOT that I am an only child. I went to a 4-year private college with on-campus housing and meal plan every year. I got generous financial aid, so our contribution was about 20K/year. My parents are divorced--my dad paid for the first two years (so, about 40K), then my mom took out a 20K loan for my junior year. Senior year they basically told me that they'd run out of money and I needed to figure something out. I groveled at financial aid and got about 7K more out of them, then took out a 13K loan myself. I worked for a couple of years in college, but that was mostly fun/books money. Summers I got jobs/research grants. I did AmeriCorps for a year after college, but it never felt like a financial strain because my parents would regularly float me money. Things changed in a big way around this time because my mom married a very generous and pretty well-off man. My stepdad has given me $40K/year for 4 years of grad school, which I'm finishing this year. I've taken out loans for the rest, so I'm leaving with about 145K in debt, plus the 13K from undergrad. This could have been much worse. Throughout grad school, my dad has direct deposited $125/month into my savings account, plus cash gifts here and there. My mom sends me $200/month, even though I've repeatedly told her not to. She says it makes her feel good. I buy my own tickets to visit her, but she and my stepdad always buy me things I need. In the past couple of years, they've bought me a laptop and a lot of clothes (like, designer suits for job interviews that will last me a very long time). This is in addition to Christmas and birthday presents--usually around $500 each. As if that wasn't enough, my mom and stepdad have taken me and my fiance on two international trips in the last couple years, all expenses paid. Oh, and my mom pays my phone bill. I didn't need to type this out to recognize that I am incredibly privileged. It's interesting to reflect on just how much my mom's remarriage has affected me, even though I didn't grow up with my stepdad. My parents are professionals, but we were never rich when I was a child. There were some hard times, especially around the divorce when they fought bitterly about money. I'm glad I grew up with money awareness because it gave me good financial habits, but I'm also incredibly grateful for my stepdad (and his money). Mostly, it unburdens me from worrying too much about my mom, who doesn't have the best money management skills.
On How Living at Home at 31 Taught Me Nothing and Everything About Saving
@Aequorea Victoria My issue is not with her living with her parents in order to save. What bothered me was her defining success as being able to quit her job to work on her screenplay and take vacations. How nice for her! Not sure how anyone could call that success, though.
On How Living at Home at 31 Taught Me Nothing and Everything About Saving
Yea....I don't know about this. You absolutely don't need to define success in traditional terms like marriage or homeownership, but this is a pretty low bar you've set for yourself. The only reason you're able to enjoy the "success" of being able to do what you want, when you want is because someone else is footing most of your bills. I'm not saying you need to feel bad about where you are right now, but I don't think you're doing yourself any favors by pretending it's A-OK.
On Adjusting Your Life to Your Partner's Career
Yea, my man and I talk about this all the time. I'm finishing law school and have a job in a city that is the best place for my career, but is not ideal for the type of medical residency he wants. He is ranking his preferences based on this city choice because we want to be in the same place after many years of long distance, and because he is a true partner and feminist. I do hope we keep up our commitment to an egalitarian relationship. Mostly, I worry that I'll be brainwashed by motherhood and forget all the cool things I wanted to do in my career. I'm less worried about his career slowly phasing mine out. I feel like it's in my control, but maybe I'm being naive.
On On Engagement Ultimatums
@deathcabforcutes just because it's romantic, I guess. I'm a little bit traditional, but not so traditional that I want him to decide by himself when we're ready for marriage.

The U.S. job market is improving despite higher taxes and government spending cuts.
Employers added 165,000 jobs in the month of April, reducing the unemployment rate from 7.6 to 7.5 percent -- a four-year low.
The report from the Labor Department shows the only sectors that cut jobs last month were construction and government.
"This is a good report," Wells Fargo Chief Economist John Silvia said. "There's a lot of strength... It's good for the economy. It's good for people's income." Meanwhile, the Dow Jones industrial average hit an all-time high Friday on news of the latest unemployment numbers, breaking the 15,000 point mark for the first time.
Although Friday's jobs report puts a positive spin on the economy, none of the jobs created were in the manufacturing sector, something Scott Paul, president of the Alliance for American Manufacturing, says is a bad sign.
Paul shared more of his insights on the matter on Newswatch, May 3. Check your local listings or check CBNNews.com after 5 p.m. ET for that report.

My Heart Is an Idiot: Essays (Hardcover)
Not in stock. Usually ships in 1-5 days from the warehouse.
Davy Rothbart is looking for love in all the wrong places. Constantly. He falls helplessly in love with pretty much every girl he meets—and rarely is the feeling reciprocated. Time after time, he hops in a car and tears across half of America with his heart on his sleeve. He's continually coming up with outrageous schemes, which he always manages to pull off. Well, almost always. But even when things don't work out, Rothbart finds meaning and humor in every moment. Whether it's humiliating a scammer who takes money from aspiring writers or playing harmless (but side-splitting) goofs on his deaf mother, nothing and no one is off-limits.
But as much as Rothbart is a tragically lovable, irresistibly brokenhearted hero, it's his prose that's the star of the book. In the tradition of David Sedaris and Sloane Crosley but going places very much his own, his essays show how things that are seemingly so wrong can be so, so right.
About the Author
Davy Rothbart is a frequent contributor to This American Life and a variety of magazines, the founder of Found Magazine and the editor of its various bestselling anthologies, and the author of The Lone Surfer of Montana, Kansas. He was born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he still lives. My Heart Is an Idiot is his fourth book.
Praise for My Heart Is an Idiot: Essays…
THIS BOOK IS F---ING GREAT! Nobody writes quite like Davy Rothbart, because nobody lives quite like Davy Rothbart--a true and funny ragged-hearted seeker of ecstasy, mystery, and human connection. My Heart Is an Idiot contains some of the most perfect and heartbreaking writing that I have ever read.
Welcome to the newly remodeled Heartbreak Hotel, where Davy Rothbart is concierge. He'll also unpack your underwear, restock your minibar, and do stand-up comedy in the lounge.
In Davy Rothbart's essays on heartache, mad love, the low life, and the high life, everybody is fascinating; everybody has something to say. The sentences speed you along down one narrative highway after another, and your tour guide is smart and funny and a real democrat: he has a sweet-tempered openness to experience that wins you over. This book breathes new life back into the personal essay, and these essays are a trip. Take that trip.
Tender, cool, funny, and utterly engaging, Davy Rothbart writes with a kind of warmth and cockeyed energy that make you love him. This book is marvelous.
"An intriguing hybrid of timeless Midwestern warmth and newfangled jive talk."
Davy Rothbart has the humor and purity of heart you want and need in an observer of contemporary American life. Without guile and with a belief in small towns, underdogs, love at first sight, the pull of the road, and the soulfulness of strangers, Rothbart is a kind of new-styled Bill Moyers--genuine, wide-eyed, and hopeful.
I believe in Davy. He's a force to be reckoned with.
Davy's as real as it gets. This is a badass book.
Davy's my kind of storyteller--honest, hilarious, deeply feeling, and slightly cracked. This is the fresh voice we've been looking for.
Praise for The Lone Surfer of Montana, Kansas
Davy writes with his whole heart. These stories are crushing.
It's always exciting to discover a talented new writer. Davy writes with such energy, wit, and heart.
Like Kerouac's best novels, these stories are breezy and energetic dispatches from obscure corners of the country... Rothbart mines his material to heartbreaking effect.
It is storytelling at its simplest and finest�e�a blend of melancholy and bravado. It's the pleasure of Rothbart's writing that each yarn begins with a moment that feels so real and yet so out of the ordinary that you're hooked from the opening scene.
Funny, flashy... a great whirlwind.
Provocative, original, and potent--at one moment hilarious, at the next heartbreaking... robust with flavor... we're left yearning for more.
Beautiful�e� Rothbart finds poetry, dignity and oddity in the mundane and fleeting moments of everyday life.
Witty and heartfelt as well as salty and somber, it's a 162-page romp�--eight pieces of short fiction featuring folks who don't always make the best decisions, but somehow, as Bruce Springsteen once put it, come to the end of every hard-earned day with a reason to believe.
Stunning and intimate�e� Rothbart shines a light on America's underbelly.
Recalls Fitzgerald and Kerouac... Rothbart's characters dare to seek adventure.
A truly wonderful and daring first collection.
