Watch the 1964 Martin Scorsese Student Film That's Like a Template for 'The Wolf of Wall Street'

This is another edition of Short Starts, where we present a weekly short film(s) from the start of a filmmaker or actor's career. Like most filmmakers of his generation, Martin Scorsese went to film school (NYU in his case), and there he made a number of shorts during the course...

Common wisdom says that money can't buy happiness, but common wisdom never spooned cocaine into a flexible young woman's anus. Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio) knows better than that, and he also knows that power, expensive things, drugs, women, and drugs inserted in women are all for the taking when you...

Every year, there seem to be unintended themes emerging from movie releases.

Sometimes this effect is unintentional, like when an emerging movie star manages to...
25 Things We Learned From Martin Scorsese's 'Gangs of New York' Commentary
- By Jack Giroux
- @JackGi
- December 19, 2013
Gangs of New York was nominated for 11 Academy Awards, and yet, I still can't shake the feeling that Martin Scorsese's revenge epic has been overlooked. With a filmograpyy as refined as Scorsese's, a few gems are bound to go unnoticed, but even at the time of its release many were split...

This week's list of movies to watch is not inspired by a single new release, because there isn't anything big enough out this weekend to warrant such a focus. Instead, I've got a year-end feature for you inspired by the entirety of 2013 in film. I can't sum up every...

After years of anticipation, the wait is nearly over. Worry no longer: 47 Ronin is finally coming to theaters.

It's pretty obvious that The Wolf of Wall Street going to become a Christmas classic. Leonardo DiCaprio is continuing his streak as a wealthy asshole, Martin Scorsese is no doubt imbuing the story of a corrupt stock broker with all kinds of life lessons and I'm pretty sure Jonah Hill...

New Images From 'The Wolf of Wall Street' Paint a Much Tamer Picture of the Film

- August 29, 2013
While the trailer for Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street painted a wild world of excess and debauchery, the new stills from the film are only showing a tame little piece of the bigger puzzle. Granted, you've still got Leonardo DiCaprio living it up, white guy stockbroker style, but the...
'Wolf of Wall Street' Trailer Delivers the 'Goodfellas' Sequel We Always Wanted

- June 17, 2013
"As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a stockbroker." Leonardo DiCaprio might as well be laying out that line in Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street, where he plays real-life multi-millionaire stockbroker/swindler Jordan Belfort. In the new trailer, gleeful immorality, fat stacks of cash and a self-aware...

Okay, so maybe screen legend is pushing it, but it's kind of hard not to get excited about the career resurgence that Matthew McConaughey has experienced in the past year.

While my interest in The Walking Dead dropped off about halfway into the AMC's television series' first season, I've remained abreast of many of the machinations of the Frank Darabont-concieved zombie drama, including the fate of one of its most asshole-y and ultimately most interesting characters – Jon Bernthal's Shane...

May 5, 2016
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - A woman and three men have each been
sentenced to prison for the killing of a man during a home invasion
Twenty-three-year-old Terri Rehm of Oklahoma City, 21-year-old Jesse Sattarella of Warr Acres and 26-year-old Bradley Sanders of Edmond were each sentenced to 35 years. Twenty-five-year-old James
McCandless Jr. of Oklahoma City was sentenced to 30 years.
The four pleaded guilty Monday to second-degree murder in the June 2009 death of 38-year-old Bradley Tucker. Each had been charged with first-degree murder before reaching a plea agreement with prosecutors.
Police say Rehm lured the victim into his bedroom and the three men then broke into the home to rob Tucker of about $1,500 he had won at a casino.

kisssssss~ by Kiddo-WWatch
©2013-2016 Kiddo-W
CraigXStan I just love craig is shorter than Stan ,but still dominant XD
Craig being short in general is amazing and I love you for drawing him as such.
i always thought this pairing was sweet but your art adds so much more depth to it absolutely beautiful work (sorry for the hug favorite and comment spree holy crap XD)
don't make me ship this D: Although, it is a super hot pairing, come to think of it.
also, a sidenote, I've been admiring your art for few days, basically since i noticed you started submitting to style-fans group and I've been in awe ever since. your art is absolutely kickass! Everything about it is perfect.
Hope you'll keep producing these beautiful images for our viewing pleasure~ : >
Guilty pleasure this pairing. <3
This is perfect. The colors are so fitting. I totally love your style
Crannn~ <333
Staaaaaiiiggg~~ x3 <333
Omfg yes. I love the ship whoever tops. |'D <333
Your username...
I love you.
Yes~ I love all Craig ships x3 but Staig is definitely up there with Creek~ <33
Omg~ xD thanks. It's kinda an inside joke, it used to be CreekAddict. I'm changing it back in about two months when it lets me, because CreekAddict doesn't seem as offensive or whatever xDD
You like Creek? My OTP, I love it so much~ <333
My linking icons are only Crenny beacause it's my best friends otp and I'm awesome. XD
CreekAddict is an awesome username man! Either one of them is amazing.
I want to change mine to CRAlG, but I think that is kinda stupid because I'm not that good at drawing him. (Or any human lol)
I have to wait a month to change my name anyway. X3
Creek and Kyman are battling for my OTP right now xD Kyman was winning for a while, but I absolutely LOVE Craig and Tweek's... Tweek xD so, Yesh. Creek is definitely one if my OTPs <333
I'm not good at drawing at all xD I can sometimes do faces, but they aren't very good whatsoever. XD I'm a photographer, so my username has NOTHING to do with my work which confuses people sometimes. I'm just such a big SP fan I'm like, "SCREW IT!!!" CRAIG would be awesome ^-^
Really? They are mine too! Kyman was the first pairing in Sp that was my OTP but got pushed down because of Creek. I guess we even like the same shippings too! ;U;
I think I may want to be a photographer, since my art my not be good enough to illustrate like I want too.
Yesss I think I may change it. ;U;
Style was my first, then Stan turned ten and I was like, "He's a dick. Kyle, you get to love Eric now." XD I ship almost everyone, so yes. We most likely do. Except! I HATE K2
I don't do it as much as I would like, but I'm pretty... Okay at it. XD I'm more of a musician than anything, except I can't sing worth shit.

Any suggestions?
My son is 2.5
I have been wondering about this too..
Of course Size Matters!!
No one wants a small Glass of WINE!!
When my DS was born we got my daughter a big sister shirt and a sticker book. It was one of those big Dora ones that had activities to do with the stickers. This ended up being an awesome gift because we only used this book when I was breastfeeding. She would sit on the couch by me while I breastfed and play with her sticker book and she loved it.

Think about something your son REALLY loves. For example, one of mine loves Disney Cars, especially Mater. Another loves Monster Trucks. DD loves anything artistic! Stick with something you know he loves and will keep him busy or entertained for awhile.
A white board is great because he can draw and erase as much as he wants and they make tons of markers in different colors. Some are even magnetic. We use a white board a lot for waiting in dr's offices. Mine are old enough to play hangman. But you can also do a drawing guessing game, see how long it takes the a person to guess what the other is drawing.
If he loves coloring, either coloring books from a store or printables. I love doing printables because in the long run it is a lot cheaper for us. You can make your own book by having a bunch of them and using construction paper or cardstock as a cover. And you can personalize the cover with his name too.
A (DSD) - 10/6/97 (not at home), T (DS) - 9/14/01, V (DD) - 3/8/03, N (DS) - 12/6/04, Z (DS) - 10/4/06, F (DS) 3/25/13
Oh and DEFINITELY a big brother shirt! I will be making my own with fabric paints so I can add our kids' names.
A (DSD) - 10/6/97 (not at home), T (DS) - 9/14/01, V (DD) - 3/8/03, N (DS) - 12/6/04, Z (DS) - 10/4/06, F (DS) 3/25/13
Me + Mr. = 6 DD 03 DS 07 DS 09
4th {and final} EDD 3/14/12 It's a BOY!!!
My older kids are 8 and 10 (yes I am starting all over and thrilled)!!! Anyway, baby Hannah is giving her 8 year old big sister art supplies and some other craft kit (maybe easy sewing) with a note that says something like, "I love you big sister and can't wait for you to teach me how to draw". Baby Hannah is giving her big brother a pocket knife or some camping/fire kit gear with a note that says "I love you big brother, can I go camping with you when I get a little bigger?" I am going to ask if they will stamp her finger or some part of her hand or foot on the bottom of the notes :)

A 13-year-old Ethiopian boy who would have died without heart surgery is now racing around his town with renewed energy, thanks to a crew of Denver caregivers.
"We visited him, and he looked just fabulous," said Tammy Cunningham, a Denver philanthropist and restaurant owner who returned this week from a trip to Ethiopia with a group of high school and college students.
"His dad said he'd had a son who sat around and didn't do anything because he was so sick, but he got back a new kid who's playing soccer and going to school," Cunningham said. "He's being a real kid and having fun."
Last summer at Children's Hospital, Akewak Behailu Wondimu had two surgeries: one for his heart, another for his spine.
The major medical procedures, free to the boy, were arranged by Dr. Stephen Berman, chairman of general pediatrics at Children's Hospital. He had received a call from his friend Rick Hodes, an American doctor living in Africa whose mission to heal the poor is fast gaining global recognition.
"We wanted to support Rick's work, because there are not many Rick Hodeses in the world," said Berman, who next month will become director of the Center for Global Health at the University of Colorado.
"He's a humble human being who gave up his life to help others," Cunningham's wife, Tammy, said of Hodes. "He's the Mother Teresa of today, and of Ethiopia."
Earlier this year, an HBO documentary and a book, "This Is a Soul: The Mission of Rick Hodes," spread the news about his humanitarian work.
Hodes first went to Ethiopia in the mid-1980s to help famine victims, and he has been there for more than 20 years, working as the medical director of Ethiopia for the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, trying to save the world one kid at a time.
His clinic is in the library of Mother Teresa's home for the destitute in Addis Ababa.
"If I need to examine the patients, I lie them on one of the tables or put a few chairs together," he said during a visit to Denver in October. "People come from halfway around the country. There are not a lot of doctors in Ethiopia — about 2,000 for 82 million people."
Ethiopia is one of the world's poorest countries, one where 119 out of every 1,000 children die before age 5 and where many suffer from diseases such as spinal tuberculosis and severe scoliosis, leaving the spine so twisted that walking is nearly impossible.
Currently, Hodes has about 420 patients, including Akewak.
"He is able to give them a future because he is able to see beyond what their deformity or condition is and understand what that person might become," Berman said.
In the U.S., few children suffer from spinal tuberculosis because of advanced medical care, but "because they were born in Africa and have a disability and, oftentimes, a deformity, they become social outcasts," Berman said.
Akewak, whose name in the Oromo language means "gift of God," now plans to become a doctor, even a heart surgeon.
"He understands not only the work Rick Hodes does but the soul that he carries with his work," said Kim Schneider- Malek, whose family hosted Akewak while he recovered here for weeks.
"He is just in awe of Rick's ability to help the world and sees him as a role model and mentor," she said.
Hodes has about 20 foster children living with him in a modest three-room home, where electricity, running water and a working toilet are never certain.
Also, he has adopted five Ethiopian orphans in order to get them on his health insurance for surgery in the United States.
Adoption wasn't an easy decision for a man who has been single all his life and works nonstop.
"We all know people who want to get married for a while to get a passport or something, then go their separate ways," he said. "With abandoned orphans, you can't do that. It's like, I could save their life, but the price I would pay is that I become their dad, and we have to spend the rest of our lives together."
And now, they've been a family for years.
"We both love each other and like each other," he said. "We just like hanging out with each other."
One of his sons, Addisu, is a student at Kenyon College in Ohio. When he first arrived at Hodes' home, "he'd never been out of his village, he'd never worn shoes or seen a car or an electric light bulb. He'd never seen a white person.
"There are probably 2 million kids like him. If you give them education, they can do something marvelous with their lives."
Hodes' mission aligns with that of Cunningham, who has done much fundraising work in Ethiopia and who 23 years ago started Taste of the Nation in the United States. Taste of the Nation has raised more than $78 million for 450 groups working to end hunger and poverty.
Cunningham wants to model his inaugural "A Dinner of Unconditional Love" on the success of Taste of the Nation — eventually having many fundraising meals in cities across the country. In five years, he hopes to raise $10 million so that Hodes can build his own hospital.
"In my 24 years of doing different things, I believe this is the most meaningful, significant thing I've ever done," Cunningham said. "Rick's selflessness is truly inspiring."

Obama widens lead to 9 points over Romney, new Ohio poll shows
Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio
A new poll shows President Barack Obama with a nine-point lead over Mitt Romney in swing state Ohio.
The mail poll published today by The (Columbus) Dispatch shows Democrat Obama leading Republican Romney 51 percent to 42 percent.
The poll shows the president ahead among independent voters by three points and attracting slightly more GOP support than Romney is getting from Democrats.
The first Dispatch poll had the two even at 45 percent just before the Republican National Convention in late August.
Experts say as many as 40 percent of Ohio's voters will cast ballots before Nov. 6. Early voting begins at county boards of elections Tuesday.
Obama will win the presidency by I land slide! could be the biggest victory in history of the United States!
taxme Let's see what happens during the up coming debates. Before makings any predictions Okay!!! Because I presonally think its closer then we think..
hunter you are right must have been the new ad with the ignorant woman from Cleveland advertising the free Obamafone! LOL!
Look at the raw data from the poll. 52 percent of the respondents voted for Obama while 40 percent voted for McCain in the 08 election. In essence, they did a terrible job oversampling Democrats. So Romney has cut into that margin by 3%. Ohio is a much closer race than these polls indicate, as shown by Republicans requesting absentee ballots at a higher rate than 08, while Dems are down 40%.
Yep, I'm posting this on my free ObamaPhone while enjoying a BLT.
Ohh.. you guys mean the free phone program started under Reagan?
Gets confusing you calling it an "obama phone" when he didn't start the program.
Like Fast & Furious, a free gun program with complete disregard as to who ends up with them. Now if that isn't neo-con, chest beating, republican right-wing NRA loving policy, then I don't know what is. I guess that is why it was started under Bush.

How can I shop if my toddler won't stay in the shopping cart?
Lately my 20-month-old daughter refuses to sit in the shopping cart, and it's become a nightmare to do any kind of shopping. I need suggestions!

I allow my 18 month old to bring her blankie to the store with her. When she starts to get upset, I just hand it to her and she calms down.posted 09/24/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
LISTS AND PLANNING The only way for me to go grocery shopping or run errands with my 18 month old is to know exactly where I'm going and about how long it will take, keeping my son's patience-level in mind. At the grocery store I always take a list, and when I have time I have it divided by department (dairy, cereal aisle, etc.) Shopping this way is much faster and I can usually get out of the store with a full cart of groceries and no toddler tantrum. I always take a snack as well, or give him a new treat from the store while we are shopping. When driving around town on errands I try to alternate must-do adult errands with fun things (like a 45-minute stop at the park) that my toddler will like and will help break up the day. If possible I do the park first so he will be tired out and in the mood for down time.posted 07/17/2005 by OhMamaMia
My almost 18 month old girl now screams when we do shopping to get attention, or when she wants to grab something and cannot have it, or when she just wants to listen to her own voice. I have an MA in Education but I now have found out managing your own child is not easy at all. I do not scream back at her, but use a very soft tone of voice to tell her it is not acceptable to scream at all, that she can "talk" to me and I will understand. This yet has to be repeated time and time again, I guess, before she understands the whole set-up. I appreciate the suggestion here of talking with your child on the way to the store and explain to her in simple terms what appropriate behavior is expected of her. I will start doing that next time. Also, food and toys do not hold her attention the whole time for me to finish shopping. She would throw away her food and sippy cups and start screaming. She does not cry, just screams. I feel awful with all the stares I get from other people around. I plan to start to reward her for good behavior as suggested by another parent here, and see if this will work. I hope it does and that though I know that what she is in now is just a passing phase, sometimes I am on my wit's end. Good luck to us all!posted 05/17/2005 by ging_smith
My husband is normally with me when we shop and when she is tired of the cart, he lets her down to walk and holds her hand. If my husband is not with me but my 5 year old is with us then my 18 month old holds the 5 year olds hand and the 5 year old holds the side of the cart and I keep a close eye on them. If it is just me and the toddler then if she is wanting down I let her walk and am in the process of teaching her to hold the side of the cart like her big sissy. If she doesn't hold the side of the cart, she still walks with me and if she stops to look at something I stop and tell her what it is and then ask her to walk again so we can look at more stuff. My toddler loves to walk is why she wants down normally, so I let her. I just keep a really good eye on her, she walks beside me and I am getting good at pushing a cart with one hand and holding her one hand, too.posted 04/05/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
I shop at a "super store" that has a toy section as well as a grocery section. After I put my 19 month old son in the cart we cruise over to the toy section and pick out two or three toys that have buttons and gadgets. He plays with those while I'm shopping and then we put them back before we leave. He understands that they are not going with him. In fact, he's usually sick of playing with them by that time, so he's more than happy to put them away. It works like a dream!posted 04/04/2005 by arawlins
I usually let my son (18mos)explore, which i know not every parent agree to me, First I let him take "one" thing he likes and try to put him back to the cart, but if it doesn't work, I ask him to help me to pick up our grocery. I know these lil people like to work like adults, I do however get tired, but it's much better than fighting with him and get all frustrated. I also spare more time to shop since i sometimes has to put back things in place.posted 03/10/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
My baby has generally been pretty good when shopping. If we go right after work then I will get him a crossaint from the bakery and he eats it as we go around. This satisfies his appetite and it's a special treat that's not sugary for him to have once in a while. At other stores (like costco) I don't give him anything but make sure the trips are shorter (including checkout time) than my grocery trip so I don't expect him to sit so long.posted 03/08/2005 by cushiebutterfield
I have two girls, a 5 year old and an 18 month old. Every time I go shopping I head straight for the toy aisle. I pick up one item for each of them to play with through the store or just let my 5 year old push the cart (she's pretty tall). They have both learned that if they act up the toy gets taken away and I finish my shopping with upset children, but I have done it so many times now it works like a charm!posted 03/01/2005 by DSchuchman
My kids are 3 and 18-months and love to go anywhere, even the grocery store. This doesn't mean they love to behave well, however. We do what Texas2mom does and talk about what's happening, what to expect and what's expected in the car on the way, too. Then, we find the "car" cart--the one with the little car on the shopping cart that has little seat belts. My kids always have to wear the seat belts or we just go back home, so they choose seat belts each time. Then,I give my son (3) things to look for from my list. My daughter (18 mo.) loves to do anything he does, so she looks too (even if she doesn't know always know what she's looking for). The grocery store I shop at also has broken up donuts at the bakery for samples. My kids knows that if they behave well, we'll stop at the bakery at the end of the shopping trip for a "treat". This works great because the treat is small and free. I shopped around and found this grocery store for the "car" carts and free treats. Another bonus is their family friendly check-out that has no candy or toys or any other stuff displayed. They also have drive-up pick-up for your groceries so you don't have to lug kids and groceries to the car. They also won't let parents take the "car" carts out to the parking lot, so they are always clean and dry. Another thing that makes our trips a success (usually) is my kids know that if I threated something, I will carry through. If I say "if you do that, we're leaving" and they do it, we do leave and they don't get to ride the car or get a treat, etc. This has been really important and effective with my kids in all areas of discipline. It's a bummer for me not to get my errands done, but it's more important that my kids know limits and respect me. Happy shopping!posted 03/01/2005 by MTmamaof2
I go to the same grocery store almost every time I shop. I know the store so well that I can make my list with things in isle order, and I don't have to fuss over price comparasons with most items I get (as pathetic as it sounds, I know the non-sale prices for the canned goods I get most often). I can usually get a large shopping trip (a cart full of stuff) done in under an hour, which is about the span of time my 18 month old will stay content. Also, I include him on making some of the selections. He loves tomatoes, apples, and bananas and he thinks it's really fun to pick out the foods and put them in the bags. I also let him pick out some of his canned and frozen foods like spaghetti O's and frozen dinners (I only hold up two choices, so he usually picks pretty easily and quickly). I also let him get out of the cart to pick things like chips and cereal. Sometimes, he picks out the more expensive things, but it is a good way to keep him interested enough to survive a shopping trip. We also breeze by the floral department, which is located at the end of the last isle we go down, to oogle at the balloons. And he loves attention, and since we're regular faces alot of the employees know him and they occupy his attention from time to time.posted 12/05/2004 by kim0904

Wells Fargo Corp. said Monday it is going to bump up its lending commitment to women-owned businesses to about $2.43 billion a year from $2.24 billion a year. Lucia Gibbons, the bank's regional president for northern New Jersey, said the company has committed to lending about $17 billion over the next seven years to U.S. businesses where women are the majority owners.
The San Francisco-based institution that became New Jersey's second largest deposit holder when it acquired Wachovia Corp. several years ago, has loaned more than $38 billion to women business owners since 1995 and the goal is to increase that total to $55 billion by 2020.
As The Record's Hugh Morley recently reported, New Jersey is outpacing the nation in growth in the number of women-owned businesses. They've risen to an estimated 225,200 in number from 213,398 in 2007, which is a 5.5 percent increase as compared to 1.5 percent for the whole country.

This week's feature story, "Meet Mr. Buzzard," focuses on one man's remarkable efforts to prevent young Latinos from joining street gangs and convince active members to cut ties with their crew. Of course, there is also a much larger anti-gang initiative underway across King County. As mentioned in our story, after a high-profile shootout this summer in Kent between rival Latino gangs, King County executive Dow Constantine promised $1.4 million to combat the growing gang crisis, devoting additional resources for local law enforcement and for a variety of prevention and outreach initiatives specifically geared toward Latinos. Here's how that money is being spent.
The King County prosecutor's office will receive the lion's share of the cash, but approximately $400,000 will also go toward outreach and prevention initiatives. That is money well-spent. The recipients include:
The Nurse Family Partnership is truly impressive. Lois Schipper, program manager for parent-child health service at the King County Health Department, calls it, "a multi-generation crime-reduction strategy."
The Avanza Project (price tag: $137,000), which combats truancy among 14-16-year-old Latino youth in part by offering school credits for employment.
A "Back to School and Employment Training" program ($230,000), which connects juvenile offenders with paid after-school and summer jobs.
The Nurse Family Partnership ($312,000), a program which provides two years of in-home nurse visits for first-time, low-income mothers.
First-time mothers are paired with a nurse who makes biweekly in-home visits to check up on the health of the woman and her child, Schipper explains. The specially trained nurses also help with "life course development" -- i.e., education and work opportunities -- and try to improve the new family's overall quality of life.
"It's really intensive support to a very vulnerable group of women who are young and having their first baby," Schipper says. "It's a population that's very open for change at the time of their first pregnancy. They're very open to support."
The program is not unique to Seattle. It started 30 years ago and is now in place in dozens of cities across the country. Tracking the participants over 15 years, researchers found that there was a 48 percent reduction in cases of child abuse and neglect, a 59 percent decline arrest of children by age 15, and 72 percent fewer convictions of the mothers.
King County currently has 17 nurses participating in the program, and they worked with 481 families in the first half of 2011. Schipper says the reserve fund money will pay for two additional nurses, which she hopes will be Spanish speakers specifically dedicated to working with Hispanics.
The Avanza Project, meanwhile, was scheduled to end at the beginning of September. With the new money, they will be able to continue offering work training to roughly 110 young Latinos who have previously had problems with truancy.
photo by Keegan Hamilton Kids involved in the Seattle Youth Violence Prevention Initiative work an internship at a café in the Rainier Vista Boys and Girls Club.
Jennifer Hill, manager of the three-year-old project, says Avanza (Spanish for "advances") targets 14-16-year-old Latinos who are "moderate to high-risk" gang offenders. Using grant money, the kids get paid minimum wage to work a summer job for which they also receive school credit. Last year, Hill says, the kids built a trail at Salmon Creek Park in Burien.
"We call it 'earn and learn,'" Hill says. "People can earn high school credit during the summer, earn wages, and learn work skills."
The money for those projects offsets $456,000 of additional funding for the Prosecutor's anti-gang unit, plus $180,000 to restore the King County's Sheriff's Office "storefront" in White Center, $30,000 in tactical equipment for the Sheriff's office, and $15,000 for the Sheriff's "Latino education outreach program," which will broadcast Spanish-language radio and TV ads with a message about "keeping young children safe from gang recruitment and activity."
In this week's feature story, Thomas Ward, a professor at USC who studies Latino gang violence, summed up the current thinking on how to best reduce gang activity in a community. By his standards, the county has taken a large stride in the right direction.
"You've got to have a carrot-and-stick approach, and any program that ignores one or the other will not be effective," the professor says. "The stick has always been much larger than the carrot. We offer this tiny piece of carrot and we've got this huge bat we're clubbing them over the head with. If we ever change that or balance it out we'd have much more success."

Axel Heimken"This picture was taken with a Canon EOS-1D Mark III and a Lensbaby 2.0 during a competition of athletes in Portugal. The athletes like the style of the Lensbaby because it shows them in a way they see themselves, a little bit rough and edgy. I use the Lensbaby in sports photography because it creates a more live atmosphere. It 'paints' the typical scenes at a start or before a race; that's the reason I used it in this picture. The imperfect technical aspect of a Lensbaby—a picture wide away from glossy high-tech pics—characterizes athletes and sports perfectly, in my opinion."
The GearThe Lensbaby system is essentially two components—the lens itself and the swappable optics. Three different lens models are available to accommodate different shooting styles.
For even more precision, the Control Freak lets you lock the lens tilt, then fine-tune it by adjusting three screw posts, making this lens a great option if you plan to do a lot of macro setups.
If you'd rather shoot fast and flexible, the Muse, an evolution of the popular Lensbaby 2.0, doesn't lock down, allowing you to quickly change your sweet spot for sports and action subjects fast (though you have to manually hold the lens to keep its angle).
Once you've selected the right lens design for you, you can start thinking about which optics you'll want to use. The Lensbaby Optic Swap System currently includes three optics for selective focus and three additional optics for other cool effects. There are also accessories for macro and wide-angle photography.
The Lensbaby website has a cool optical comparison tool that previews the effects of the different optics at a variety of apertures. Go to www.lensbaby.com/optic-comparison.php.
2. Single Glass Optic Lensbaby describes this optic as similar to what you'd find in an antique camera, with a soft effect.
3. Plastic Optic Holga and toy camera aficionados will love this optic, the softest in the system, for really dreamy images.
4. Pinhole/Zone Plate Optic This switchable optic lets you experiment with pinhole and zone plate effects.
5. Soft Focus Optic Unlike the other optics in this system, which have a "sweet spot" of relative sharpness, Soft Focus produces even softness throughout the image.
6. Fisheye Optic Get an expansive 160-degree field of view. Designed for the Composer lens, it can be used with the Muse and the Control Freak with an optional adapter.
7. Macro Kit This kit includes two filters for +4 or +10 magnification. Focus from 2 to 13 inches.
8. Wide Angle/Telephoto Kit Two converter lenses—a 0.6x Wide Angle and a 1.6x Telephoto—expand the creative possibilities of the Lensbaby's standard 50mm focal length to 30mm (wide) or 80mm (tele).
Super Wide Angle (not shown) Want to go even wider? This 0.42x converter lens gives you a 21mm equivalent.

Actually, you might believe it.
But who doesn't enjoy a little clickbait, right?
A year ago, in the intro to a 5Q+1 interview here at GetReligion, I wrote:
Jaweed Kaleem, the Religion Newswriters Association's 2013 Supple Religion Feature Writer of the Year, produces exceptional journalism on a regular basis. Don't be surprised if his latest story — in which he goes inside Pakistan to report on religious minorities — turns out to be one of the best religion news stories all year.
It's a must read.
Am I a prophet or what?
Kaleem's Pakistan story just won a Wilbur Award from the Religion Communicators Association.
Here's how the Religion Communicators Council — at whose convention I was honored to offer a keynote presentation in 2006 — describes the awards announced this week:

Problems of Expanding International Trade
THE major problem of the postwar period in the field of international trade has been to remove the imbalance between the United States and the rest of the world at a high enough level to permit economic progress. This problem in turn is importantly related to the level of trade among the nondollar countries since this determines alternative sources. The imbalance with the dollar area has been most conspicuous in western Europe, which at the end of the war found itself both short of the resources for reconstruction and lagging behind the United States in the export of manufactures. No other area had been so dependent upon exporting manufactures to procure food and raw materials. The imports of the United Kingdom, for example, rose from 11 per cent of its national income in 1820 to 38 per cent in 1880; and the proportion, after falling to 22 per cent in 1937 largely because of a favorable movement in the terms of trade, rose again to 34 per cent in 1951.
During the nineteenth century, Europe did a very large proportion of world trade in manufactures. The United Kingdom, France, and Germany were still responsible for 60-65 per cent in 1913. The British share was steadily decreasing, being about 38 per cent in 1876-80 and 29 per cent in 1906-10, but it was a declining share of a more rapidly growing trade. World trade in manufactares increased threefold between 1880 and 1913.

We started this site to lay out our plan to go sailboat cruising in 2016. Currently, we live in a great house on an island in Beaufort, SC with our two daughters and our two dogs. My wife Laura and I both work in the public school system here and enjoy our work. We have a motorboat and a sailboat and have the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, our community, and time with our friends while we live here. We are, overall, very happy people living at the coast in a humid subtropical climate with our summers off from work. Living the dream right!?
In January of 2013, however, our mindset about life and purpose and needs and wants started to change. We wanted to consume less, live more, and to have a new adventure with our little family. We felt very much stuck in the "rat race" with no guarantee of tomorrow. So, over the course of a few months and many conversations, we decided to buy a boat, sell most of our stuff, and sail away with our two little girls three years from now. None of our plans are very detailed yet, we just have a vision of sailing away, making memories and overcoming challenges with our family while we're still (relatively) young. That vision, however, is the result of a confluence of too many signs to ignore (the subject of a later post for sure).
Our plan for this site is to have a place where my wife and I can both contribute our thoughts, our plans, stories, resources, and updates. The name of the site (Releasing the Bowlines) is a play on the Mark Twain quote about living now so that you don't regret it later. However, we're looking for a deeper meaning to evolve from it so stay tuned! Starting this site actually makes the process feel underway, like taking a first step, as small as it may be. We've all heard this quote before:
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." – Lao-tzu
The way this journey looks now, a thousand miles feels generous.

Yes, I agree with you. There has to be a bug on iTunes.
I wonder if you have tried my solution: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17202885#17202885
I wonder if my solution would work for anybody.
Another thing I found out about this problem is the "time setting" between your PC and Apple TV. They have to be the same time zone, or exactly same time. In my Apple TV 2, I switched off Automatically setting the time, and I assigned the time zone zone manually. My Home Sharing has been working past 6 days with my solution (refer to the above link). Then last night, I was just playing with the Apple TV 2 setting, and accidentally switched on time to Automatic. Guess what? My Home Sharing immediately dropped! I have to switched off Home Sharing from my PC's iTunes, re-shared it. (I also had to quit iTunes and reopened for Apple TV to discover the Home Sharing.)
My understanding is if you set time zone to manual on your Apple TV, Apple TV would grab the time from your PC's clock instead of a time (NTP) server from Apple.
So, guys, while you have been beating the network settings on your routers, try to see if the time zone on both your PC and Apple TV settings are the same. Try to see if manually setting time zone would work. And try Auto too. Remember, sometimes you need to re-share your Home Sharing from PC. Sometimes, you have to re-launch iTunes after you initiate Home Sharing for Apple TV to 'discover' the Home Sharing. (But once Apple TV locks into Home Sharing from your PC, the media library on Apple TV should always be there!)
Good luck!

I have just used some free software called nmap and got it to do a full TCP/UDP scan on my apple TV and it shows the following ports open (This is without any router port forwarding or triggering in place):
Discovered open port 3689/tcp on 192.168.7.33
Discovered open port 62078/tcp on 192.168.7.33
Discovered open port 7000/tcp on 192.168.7.33
Discovered open port 7100/tcp on 192.168.7.33
Discovered open port 49152/tcp on 192.168.7.33
Discovered open port 5353/udp
Despite the above ports being open/available and the fact I have a 'tested' WIRED network the apple TV still drops home-sharing every now and then - so I am starting to suspect it is either iTunes software (v10.5.2.11) or the latest firmware within apple TV.
Hi KGriff,
Using nmap is a good start. But I would like to clarify the proper way to use this tool. Instead of scanning your Apple TV for open ports, you should use a 3rd device (PC or Mac) to scan your original PC/Mac (with iTunes) to see if those Home Sharing essential ports (3689/5353/123/etc) are opened for Apple TV to communicate your PC's iTunes properly. Using nmap tool to scan Apple TV is rather misleading for yourself, because you assumed the ports on Apple TV are now open, therefore Home Sharing should work. As the matter of fact, these ports on your Apple TV are "always" open. They are never closed. The application/program/utilities/libraries on Apple TV always keep these ports open so that Home Sharing would work flawlessly.
What's in question is whether these ports are open on your PC or Mac. I think there are a lot of free 3rd party tool to check open ports on your PC. Or I think you can use "netstat -an" if you have Windows. If not open, then you need to work on the Firewall rules to open the ports on your PC.
Hope this helps!

rogsf, I disabled my port forwarding and... everything still works!
I too read about the time zones having to be the same and wrongly believed my port forwarding had solved the issue, but remembered I also changed the time zone setting to manual on the same day, it looks like this is the cure!

I have several PC's on my home network and Home Sharing between them has been fine but the Home Sharing on Apple TV (now and then) wont show any of my PC's... I switch it off at the power and back on again and the PC's return in the computer list... after a while of using Apple TV, I put it in 'suspend' then switch off the Sony TV and sometime later when I return and wake up apple TV by pressing the menu button the PC's in Home sharing 'sometimes' disappear ... but not always. Anyhow switching off the ATV and powering it back up again and the PC's re-appear.
I have just done netstat -an on my main PC here are the results with ATV turned on (IP address 192.168.7.33) and streaming - note this is a short 'extract' from my netstat results NOT the full output:
Not sure if this takes me any further but when I get a little more time I will run nmap from one of my other computers and point it at my main PC.
Whilst doing this I was wondering if windows PC power management/screensaver etc may have something to do with the dropped connection after the ATV has become 'idle' or suspended... anyhow that is something else I will try aswell in the coming days.
rogsf - thanks for taking the time to reply to my earlier posting - it is appreciated :-)

Hi KGriff,
I had the similar problem too before I fixed it. My Apple TV would loose my PC all of the sudden, even I am not playing any songs from my iTunes library. I don't think it's your PC's pwr mgmt or screensaver. The way I fixed my problem was actually 2 steps:
1. Make sure the time zone matches that on your PC. Try set your time zone to manual in ATV.
2. Uninstall the latest versino of iTunes, and install version 10.3.1 (released in July 2011)

Makes me laugh seeing as how all of us are doing everything we can with no feedback or help from Apple. Clearly this is not a network problem. This is a huge BUG between iTunes, ATV2 and Home Sharing Software. It's a bug that Apple cannot fix or doesn't care about. There is no rational reason to have people playing around their ports, routers, firewalls, base stations... If this is the case then Apple is not doing their job with creating products that "just works" and doesn't require "IT" support. In this case, Apple is failing!

I have the same problem with home sharing and airplay working with my music on iTunes for mac for about 20 minutes on my apple tv 2. Every once in awhile, airplay works, and I can see the airplay icon in iTunes occasionally. And I am able to stream my iTunes library to apple tv occasionally, but both drop out at about 20 minutes. Home sharing is on both in iTunes and ATV2, pw for iTunes and ATV2 match. My internet is through password secured wifi in my building, so I don't have access to an ethernet port or a router. I don't know why it would work for a little bit, then stop, but if anybody has any ideas, let me know. Thanks!

Wish I had a dollar for every time someone on this forum said "it's clearly not a network issue". Of course many of the fixes involve network settings.
I don't know who told you that Apple products "just work" but they lied to you. I've been using Apple products for about 20 years now and while I believe they are more reliable, they certainly don't all just work out of the box. Otherwise this forum would have tumbleweeds rolling through it.
The rational reason that people have to adjust their network settings is that the network is how the devices communicate... if they can't communicate, then they won't work.
I joined this thread 'round about page 23, and I have seen the results of all the fixes that Apple has made; it used to be all kinds of different problems, with different configurations, but now it seems to be just Windows 7 and closed ports. So obviously Apple has made progress with this issue, but is not done yet.
In the interest of helping to get these last bugs worked out, I strongly suggest going over to http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html and ranting there. Be sure to give as much detail as you can about your system, what you've tried, and the results so the engineers can have a better idea of what is causing the problems. Or call them, or go to an Apple store.
Or sell the thing and buy something else. Personally I'll keep mine, but I'm not recommending that my parents get one yet.

It should be obvious by now that there is not a reliable, simple, fix. Quit wasting time here, and take it to your nearest Apple Store.

So everyone on this board should do that? Return ATV. I've done that once already. It didn't work. Same problem.

Three ways Luke Walton can bring the Warriors' magic to L.A.
When he accepted the Los Angeles Lakers' head coaching job Friday, Golden State Warriors assistant coach Luke Walton moved 56 games down the standings.
Lakers looking for fresh start with Walton
Luke Walton to take over Lakers after Warriors' season ends
Luke Walton has agreed to be the Los Angeles Lakers' new head coach, with the sides agreeing to a multiyear deal Friday, the team said.
Walton spent nine seasons with the Lakers, winning two championship rings as a smart, steady contributor. Three years after his retirement, the 36-year-old Southern California native is back to become the 26th head coach in franchise history.
"I loved everything about my time at Golden State and learning from Steve (Kerr)," Walton told ESPN. "I'll forever be grateful to him, the organization and the team. But I have always dreamed of being a head coach and the chance to do that for an organization like the Lakers doesn't come around very often."
Walton has been serving as an assistant for the Golden State Warriors, who granted him permission to interview with the Lakers after their first-round Western Conference playoff series against the Houston Rockets concluded Wednesday.
A source told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne that Walton was the Lakers' first choice and the only candidate they interviewed. They had other meetings lined up but canceled them after Thursday's interview with Walton in Oakland, California.
"We're excited to bring Luke back to Los Angeles, where we feel he's going to start an outstanding coaching career," Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said in a release. "He's one of the brightest young coaching minds in the game, and we feel fortunate that he'll be leading the on-court future of our team."
The 36-year-old had become a hot coaching commodity after posting a 39-4 record -- including a record 24-0 start -- as the Warriors' interim coach this season while Kerr was recovering from complications stemming from two offseason back surgeries.
"I'm incredibly happy for Luke," Kerr said in a release. "As we witnessed earlier this season, he has all of the intangibles necessary to be an outstanding head coach in this league, including a terrific understanding of the game the ability to communicate with a wide range of people."
Walton finished eighth in coach of the year balloting Tuesday. Sources said he had drawn serious interest from the Sacramento Kings
Between Boom Dizzle and The Drew: Baron Davis' winding journey
In the midst of telling a basketball story, Baron Davis became a basketball story.
A knee injury brought Davis' 13-year NBA career to a halt during a Knicks playoff game in 2012. He had already started shooting footage of the summertime Drew League, a project that intensified as Davis entered retirement. The finished documentary, "The Drew", will premiere on Showtime on Friday night at 8 p.m. in the Eastern and Pacific time zones.
For a while Davis' basketball exploits were limited to some weekend pickup runs. He'd dabble in a few games of H-O-R-S-E. He found the competitive juices were most likely to flow when he played games of Connect Four -- or sometimes when he picked up the controller and played Mario Kart.
But all of that time spent around the Drew League stirred something.
"Being in that environment and not playing?" Davis said.
That didn't sit right.
Something else didn't sit right: the way his career ended. He'd come down from the highs of the "We Believe" Golden State Warriors playoff run in 2007, to shifting among three teams (the Los Angeles Clippers, Cleveland Cavaliers and New York Knicks) in the final four years of his career. He was heckled by then-Clippers owner Donald Sterling when he played in L.A. His beloved grandmother died in 2011 while he was playing for the Cavaliers. The finish wasn't clean. It felt as if there were more to be done.
Davis hired a personal trainer and worked his way back into shape. He showed up regularly to the Sunday runs. He put out the word that he wanted back in.

Warriors grant Lakers permission to interview Luke Walton
OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Golden State Warriors have granted permission to the Los Angeles Lakers to interview Warriors assistant coach Luke Walton for their coaching vacancy.
Steve Kerr, who was named the NBA Coach of the Year on Tuesday, revealed before Wednesday night's series-clinching Game 5 win over the Houston Rockets that the Lakers can meet with Walton as soon as a break in the Warriors' schedule arises.
"We told Mitch that he's perfectly welcome to talk to Luke as soon as the series is over and we have a little break," Kerr said of Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak.
NBA coaching sources say Walton, after spending eight-plus seasons as a player with the Lakers, is a prime target for Los Angeles in its search to replace Byron Scott, who was fired Sunday night after posting a 38-126 record over the past two seasons.
Yet sources stressed to ESPN.com that San Antonio Spurs assistant coach Ettore Messina is also getting strong consideration. Messina had a decorated coaching career in Europe before serving as a Lakers consultant in 2011-12. Not only is he a known entity to Lakers officials, but he also has spent the past two seasons alongside Hall of Fame-bound San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.
The Lakers, sources say, are seeking a coach who can change their on-court fortunes, connect with their many young players and help their free-agent recruiting efforts. Team officials, however, have made it clear that they are not prepared to grant full personnel control to whomever they hire. That policy applied in Los Angeles even when Phil Jackson was on the bench.
Sources say the Lakers also plan to interview former Cleveland Cavaliers

Timex Sinclair 2048 en
The "Timex Sinclair 2048" although never produced, was to be an improved version of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum computer. It was not released by Timex Corporation because of TS1500 failure. According to an early Timex Sinclair 2000 computer flyer, it would be a cut-down TS2068 with 48 KB of RAM and advertised as a 48 KB memory machine. It seems that Timex Computer Corporation used the 2048 model number before. It was the intended model number for what finally got named TS2068. In an interview with Lou Galie, Senior Vice President of Technology at Timex, he tells what he claims to be the real story. Danny Ross, Timex Computer Corporation president was giving a speech. Lou points: "When Danny announced what was supposed to be the 2048, he mis-spoke and called it the 2068. When I called him on it, he laughed and said 'Rename it. 2068 is better than 2048'". [ - ]

Power sector coal demand has fallen in nearly every state since 2007 ›
Consumption of steam coal used for electricity generation in the U.S. electric power sector fell 29% from its peak of 1,045 million short tons (MMst) in 2007 to an estimated 739 MMst in 2015. Consumption fell in nearly every state, rising only in Nebraska and Alaska over that period. States with the largest declines were concentrated in the Midwest and Southeast, with six states in these regions accounting for nearly half of the national decline. Smaller declines in power sector coal consumption occurred in Wyoming, North Dakota, and Montana, all in the Rocky Mountain region. More›

A man suspected of robbing 14 banks in six states, including one here in Eastern Carolina, told a federal judge he wants to get back to Tennessee to face charges of robbing two banks.
Chad Schaffner, 37, appeared in federal court Monday, two days after he was arrested at a motel about 30 miles northeast of the Missouri Capitol. A former Missouri Highway Patrol trooper recognized Schaffner at a restaurant in Kingdom City after seeing his picture on a news report about a bank robbery in Illinois.
Schaffner is a suspect in July 15th's robbery at the Southern Bank on Queen Street in Edenton.
In a 10-minute hearing, Schaffner said he has no attorney and cannot afford one. He waived the right to a hearing to verify his identity. Asked by reporters how he felt about being caught, Schaffner only shrugged his shoulders.
Schaffner is also suspected of robbing banks in Indiana, Kentucky and North and South Carolina.
