PBS (Wed., June 7, 8 P.M. ET)
How people coexist with nature's fury—in the form of earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes and volcanoes—is the focus of this hour-long Infinite Voyage broadcast, which plays like a travelogue written in Stephen King horror style. Such experts as geologist Dr. Stephen Leather-man, a coastal erosion specialist, comment on some of the world's most precarious places to live. Included are Ocean City, Md., where high-rise condos have been built on a shifting sandbar in an area commonly hit by hurricanes; Colombia, where a volcano called Nevado del Ruiz triggered a tidal wave of mud that killed 22,000 people in 1985; and Parkfield, Calif., (pop. 34), where scientists are wondering why a strong earthquake hits the town every 22 years. The strangest trip of all is to the Japanese island of Sakurajima, where a volcano has erupted more than 5,000 times since 1955. The island's 9,000 residents seem unfazed by the continual cloud of soot that surrounds them. Anyone thinking of checking out these phenomena in person should pay attention to the segment on micro-bursts, those surprise downdrafts of air that can cause commercial airplanes to crash.

OK! The Nov slump is behind us. Much of the initial shock of mReits hitting the crapper in the event of no resolution over the FC has been priced in, and we have been inching forward out of the trenches after the fuselage of the lame press bombardment seizing every sensational opportunity to warn(read scare) us about the end of the world occurring as a result of the same...Lions and Tigers and "BEARS" ...Oh My!
But, as always , AGNC will march on and arrive at 34.00+ before its EX date at the end of THIS month, IMO. So how are we going to take advantage of this very likely outcome? We can hide under our beds and wait it out, which is safe, I agree, but it causes one to miss out on this most excellent and likely opportunity. How many times has AGNC been this far under book value, this close to EX?Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the answer is zero.
Here is an interesting lining up of events, with the caveat of the wolf lurking in the forest(FC). Really low PPS valuation of AGNC and the monthly run to EX, hmmmm.....
Again how do we take advantage?
The safest play I still believe is the spread. You can do this with Calls on the 31/32 Bull Call Spread for about 50 cents. That places your BE at 31.50 and gives you 50 cents profit if OPEX is B4 EX, and PPS is at 32.00 or better.
The better way to play this is to do a long modified butterfly with Puts( a combination) Watch:
Long the Dec 40Put @ 9.50. Short the Dec34Put for 3.50 and long the Dec30Put for .50 in a 1/2/1 ratio for a 3.00 debit. BE at 31.00 and 37.00. Max loss at 40.00 or higher(3.00). Lower end maximum loss 1.00 @ 30.00 or lower. Maximum profit @ 34.00 for 3.00. This works best if EX is post OPEX, but it also works reversed(EX pre OPEX) as the long 40 Put retains value.
Your thoughts? Good trading! Exciting times...let's make some money!!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Hi Doc and AGNC members-
I'm not a sophisticated investor just holding some Jan $31 and $32 Calls and hopefully that will be enough to make some money, even bigger money If the goons can eliminate the uncertainty. Oh yea Geitner will be on Meet the Press tonight, this may have an affect on Monday's opener. Hey does anyone have an opinion on WMC? I've been layering in this one for the last 4 weeks, ouch, the Calls are traded thinly with wide spreads but my gut says big run-up with divi increase potential or am I just smoking crack.
Sentiment: Buy
Hey Jim,
There is nothing but good news from the WMC camp, from TA to their fundamentals(among the lowest CPR of all mReits paying over 14%). I believe we will see spo offer price(22.50) by EX or better. I am with you and was down 40k on the swoon. Still down but only by about 8K(beats 40K). If I can make BE by EX I will be happy...lose some big, lose some small...,keep trading, with no more than 5% per trade, and trade another day....;-)
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Sentiment: Hold
Thanks ehpb1,
Of course, but I believe with two "L's". Jim used to be my editor but I haven't heard from him lately. Are you out there ddjim2 ?
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Or, you could just buy the 13Jan$30 or $31 Call options. If, as predicted, the price of AGNC rises to $33-$34 by XD date, one makes the greatest % gain safely for the least amount risked, by selling the Calls a day or 3 before XD date.
That doesn't take a lot of investing experience or knowledge to profit from this move. You just have to believe --- it's CHRISTMAS!
Sentiment: Buy
Just sold the 32/31 put spread for 0.75. Ridiculous these prices we are getting here.
I hope you are correct because I am getting tired of watching the agency mreits tread water after such a brutal decline. The non-agency mreits had a great week though and hopefully they keep it up in December.
At some point these things have to trade to book value plus. I can see the current price/book if they were not paying dividends and their book values were threatened but that is FAR from the current status. GLTA this month.
It is a no brainer, buying here for a $1.25 dividend and under book. Absolute no brainer. I am in with a boatload of Jan. 19, strike 30's and March strike 35's.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Let's make some money with Agnc...woohoo!!! I can't wait, I been waiting for this all my life. I wish everyone the best : )
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Hi Doc,
I think we still have some weakness ahead of us till ~ the 8th. I hope I am wrong as a decent chunk of my calls need 32.10 to BE and would like that comfort factor,
It appears you think that the doom and gloom artificially pushed PPS down and that will help springboard us back- again I hope so. last couple of Dec runs have been whimpers

Patty noted that her office was transitioning from Word 2003 to Word 2010. They have quite a few users who have smaller monitors, so she was wondering if there was any way to reduce the size of the icons on the ribbons.
The quick answer is that we haven't been able to discover any method of decreasing the size of the icons on the ribbons. You could, of course, increase the resolution used by your monitors (this is done through Windows, not through Word), which would make the icons appear to be smaller. But everything else on the screen (including the text in your documents) would appear smaller, as well.
If you decide to go the "higher resolution" route, you might consider getting newer, larger monitors for your users. Monitors are relatively inexpensive these days, compared to what they have historically been, so it might be a good time to upgrade this hardware element, too.

Post Content
Every year in Massachusetts hundreds of children leave foster care via adoption into loving homes. Deciding whether to adopt can be a difficult decision, but it is often a very rewarding one for both you and the child.
Becoming an adoptive parent is a big responsibility, one that requires patience, understanding, and support. For those that are interested, there are free informational meetings held across Massachusetts. These meetings help potential individuals or families decide if they feel ready to become an adoptive parent or foster care family. Support and guidance is offered for individuals or families through the Department of Children and Families (DCF) throughout the process, and there are also subsidies and grants available to help adoptive children and their families.
Children who are awaiting adoption range in age from birth to 18 years, and come from all ethnic, linguistic, and economic backgrounds. Children that are adopted or taken into foster care benefit greatly from the love and support of a family.
6 Steps in the Adoption Process
1. By working with DCF, potential adoptive parents will choose an agency. It is recommended that prospective parents talk to more than one agency and attend informational meetings at a number of agencies before making the final choice.
2. Once an agency is chosen, prospective adoptive parents will be invited to attend Massachusetts Approach to Partnerships in Parenting (MAPP) — a training and preparation course held one night per week for ten weeks. The course is designed to help families determine what child they can best parent, and also serves as a self-screening function.
3. After an agency is chosen, the home study begins. This is a process that involves background checks on every household member over the age of 14, a series of interviews with a social worker, and a physical standards check on your home to verify that it is suitable for the adoptive child.
4. Once the home study is completed and approved, a social worker will work with prospective adoptive parents to identify a child who is a good fit with your family.
5. When a potential match is identified, a family meets with their social worker and the child's social worker to discuss the child in more detail and become familiar with his or her history. Once everybody agrees that a good match has been made, an initial meeting between the family and the child is coordinated. If the initial meeting goes well, further visitation is arranged, including overnights, holidays, and weekends.
6. Following a successful visitation period, the child moves in with the family on a full-time basis. The visitation period varies from child to child, but typically lasts several weeks or months. There is a waiting period of six months before the adoption can be legalized in Massachusetts. During this time, home visits will be conducted by the social workers to provide support and monitor how the placement is going.
If you feel adoption is right for your family, talk to others who have adopted and educate yourself. Most of all, prepare to have your life enriched in ways you never thought possible.

Here is a behind-the-scenes video from my August 23rd show at the Dairy Center for the Performing Arts in Boulder Colorado.
The video was shot at my sound check by fellow performer and Electric Trombone player Darren Kramer using GoPro. The audio is from GoPro camera.
At this show I'm using Abeton Live to do for live sequenced playback. For live play, For this song called "Dark Signals" (from my second album I HEAR YOUR SIGNALS) I'm using a my Remote SL MKII Keyboard along with Maschine (custom template in made with Control Editor) to play instruments in Live racks. As you'll see in the video I'm using pressure from the pads to modulate this synths.
AudioCubes are receiving light commands via MIDI CCs from Ableton Live. I never use on-board sounds in Tenori-On and instead use it as a controller and pump MIDI into synths hosted in Ableton Live.
The visuals are based on live camera input processed in Resolume. The Resolume system receives controller and automation from the Ableton rig via MIDI. I'm using the house projector to display my visuals on a screen that's the width the of the stage!
It's a little hard to tell from this video because audio is from GoPro, but the sound at this show was amazing thanks to Gannon Kashiwa who owns and operates GK:SOUND at the TARDIS in Denver. I'm working on a 3 camera edit from footage from the actually show performance which will have audio from the board – so stay tuned.

I've been a fan of the track "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye since I first heard the track on the radio. I was surfing around tonight and noticed and article on the Novation website which mentions the band's use of Ableton Live and Launchpad. The article mentioned the viral video which I somehow missed – lol. It's pretty cool so I've embedded it below. I then found a live performance video which shows them performing the same song live. For me it's nice to see Ableton and Launchpad's in the wild with charting bands. Also, bringing a bunch of Launcpads along is certainly carry-on ready for touring.

Early last week I got a message from Denver Sound Designer James Kojac of Syndicate Synthetique.
"I happen to have a pre release DSI/Linn Tempest sitting in front of me… I figured you may want to swing by and check it out."
Duh! Of course I jumped at the chance to see one of the first Tempest Drum Machines in the wild - #0026 to be precise.
While I was there, James was kind enough to take me through the paces, show me some of the kits he had created so far, and let me play and do a little sound design with it. Before I talk about first impressions let me give you a brief rundown on the core features.
Top Feature Summary
The Tempest is an analog drum machine first introduced in at the Winter 2011 NAMM and is a collaboration between Dave Smith and fellow instrument designer Roger Linn.
First Impressions
I've played a lot of drum machines and synths in the past 20 years and found Tempest exceeded my expectations. It has great GUI design and is extremely expressive, and to me was instantly addictive. I planned on stopping by for a quick look and ended up spending like 3 hours jamming! The Tempest was so cool, I think I would have stayed longer if I didn't have to get up 6:00am the next day – lol.
The OLED display is vivid, the machine looks great in the dark and offers visual feedback from the pads. The pads feel great, are taught and not spongy, don't travel down much and respond well to pressure. Once you spend a little time with the GUI you'll find the dual-function "shift" concept to be quite brilliant and flexible and as it offers quick access to deeper parameters without interrupting performance workflow. I certainly didn't master it in 3 hours, but definitely started to "grok" the concept and it didn't take long at all to start making interesting music and sound. I got some immediate results with the analog synth architecture and created an interesting snare drum that James was kind enough to name after me in one his kits – woot!
The sound and performance possibilities are simply stunning! It can sound huge and punchy. It can also sound nasty without sounding brittle – and I mean nasty. It also can sound silky and warm. The modulation matrix combined with modulation sources including inputs from pad strikes and pad pressure, slide controllers and knob movement make the Tempest a live performance monster. And since your controlling parameters driving instances of analog synths, it's insanely expressive. In other words it has a massive sonic range and the potential for unique output based on an individual performer. It is truly a musical instrument and not some sort of cookie cutter sample-based drum machine ROMpler.
Besides live playing on pads, you can sequence and step sequence patterns. There is a performance mode that allows you to to assign patterns to slots and trigger them from the pads – plus play over the top. There are also modes that allow you use the pads to play pitch intervals and set scales.
After a three hours session (without cracking open a manual) I feel like I just dipped my toe in the water and there are lot of other features under the hood that I didn't experience.
Video of James Jaret Kojac Playing the Tempest
James (Syndicate Synthetique) has been working with the Tempest for a few weeks and was kind enough to let me film a quick jam which I think illustrates the potential and sonic range of Tempest. In this video James is jamming with some of his sounds with some sounds also initially designed by colleague Al Nesby of A23P and Acid Allstars. The video really shows off the range and performance aspects of the DSI Tempest analog Drum Machine.
Photo Slide Show
While I was there I shot a bunch of photos. View embedded Flickr slide show.
Availability and Price
From what I hear the unit should be available any day now. My friends at Sweetwater list the price at $1999.00 http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Tempest (note I don't benefit from sales of Tempest – just love Sweetwater and recommend you ask for Jeff Green).
Closing Thoughts
This is not a comprehensive review since I only had three hours with the unit. I will say I was blown away by Tempest. Before I played it I thought 2K was pretty damn expensive for a drum machine. After playing it I realized this was way more than a drum machine and is an outright performance instrument with a massive sonic range. Expensive? Yes. Worth it? If you are looking for a desktop analog drum machine that doubles as an instrument this seems like a good value and I think it's worth a look.
With the great analog synth elements from Dave Smith combined with the design of Roger Linn, Tempest is more than a luxury synth item – it's a tool that will allow you to uniquely express yourself as an electronic/experimental musician for both beat and synth oriented work. I also see Tempest being well suited as a companion throughout the entire process of making music from composition, to production through to performance.
I'm not immediately in the market for an analog instrument, but after playing Tempest, I'm quite intrigued and would put it on my wish list if I decided to add an analog performance instrument to my hardware rig.

Have you ever wanted to look over the shoulder of someone who's spent multiple years programming and refining a custom application with Max/MSP/Jitter? Well you are in luck as artist Robert Edgar kindly agreed a let me record a behind-the-scenes walk through of his "Simultaneous Opposites Engine" app when I was visiting Sunnyvale last April.
He describes the app as "a performance/navigation system for real-time traversal of existing video files, sorting through the audio and video a single frame at a time, in an arrhythmic spiraling motion". While this is not a commercial application, watching the interview will not only give you insights into Robert's innovative work, but will also give you a sense as to why people choose to program their own apps and how they use technologies like Cycling 74's to solve problems and express their art.
After the interview video I've embedded a few example videos to show some of Robert's recent work. I've included a link to his Vimeo channel at the bottom of the post which you should definitely checkout as it's the home of over 60 videos created by Robert over the last few years allowing you to see the progression of the technology and the art. I recommend you view all videos full screen and HD.

Tim Thompson is a software engineer, musician, and installation artist. He was recently mentioned in Roger Linn's post "Research Project: LinnStrument -- A New Musical Instrument Concept" where Roger credits Tim with writing a program that "translates the TouchCo's proprietary USB messages into TUIO messages sent over OSC."
I met Tim at my recent concert at the Art Institute of California/Sunnyvale and he was kind enough to invite me over to see his latest development project, the MultiMultiTouchTouch. This custom solution offers players any number of arbitrarily-shaped multitouch areas with three-dimensional spatial control. Interaction with this space allows users to control and play virtual synthesizers using nothing but a Microsoft Kinect as the controller.
Ironically, the concept shown in Moog Music's April Fools video "Introducing the Moog Polyphonic Theremin" is not only a reality, but Tim has one-upped this idea by providing polyphonic spatial control in multiple "frames", AND more granular control than a Theremin with finger blob detection. In short MultiMultiTouchTouch is like having a polyphonic/multitimbral Theremin that can not only detect hand movements, but finger movements as well - from multiple players!!!
Luckily I brought my video camera along and recorded Tim describing and demoing the technology. I also give the MultiMultiTouchTouch a try at the end of the video. So, without further ado, I present the video "An Exclusive First Look at Tim Thompson's Kinect-Based Instrument: MultiMultiTouchTouch"
In summary, Tim developed with the following components:
The raw output of this controller is OSC messages formatted using the TUIO (multitouch) standard format. Parameters of the software can be controlled with JSON-formatted messages.
If you're near Silicon Valley, you can play with this controller on April 10 at the Stanford DIY Musical Instrument Tailgate Party , or at the Kinect Hackathon at Hacker Dojo. Tim will also be using it in installations at Lightning In a Bottle and Burning Man this year.
Pass It On
I want to reiterate, this is real and NOT a late April Fool's joke. Incredible work Tim! Congrats. I can't wait to see where Tim takes this and look forward to the possibility of doing some MultiMultiTouchTouch compositions and performances myself. To help Tim promote his work share this video.

I put in some extra rehearsal time this weekend in preparation for the March 17th show at the Art Institute of California/Sunnyvale . I'll be performing songs from I HEAR YOUR SIGNALS, and some new songs which I'm considering for my next album. I'm also working on getting some songs from my previous album REBOOT to my live set and wanted to share some notes on implementing my song "Alone".
First off, here is the album version of the track:
Alone by MarkMosher
As you can hear, "Alone" is the emotional bottom of the story in REBOOT and is the only track on the album without a drum groove. This being the case I wanted to come up with some sort performance that would provide contrast to the other songs in the set. Back in September I came up with the idea of attempting to play all the lead melody and ambient noises solely from Percussa AudioCubes. I've decided to push-on with this idea and perform the song this way. Here are the behind-the-scenes notes and a rehearsal video.
I normally configure my AudioCubes so there is 1 "Sensor" cube for controlling effects, 2 "Receiver" cubes for sending MIDI notes to Ableton Live to trigger clips, scenes, parameter settings…, and 1 cube as a "Sender" to trigger to the Receiver cubes.
For "Alone" I wanted to use each cube face to play a different note according to a predefined user scale that matched the notes in the song. AudioCubes can detect objects in one of two ways –Wirelessly ("Sender"/"Receiver" pairs), or through infrared (cube set to Sensor mode). In sensor mode, an object's (hand, other cube, cat…) proximity to cube face is detected with infrared. Since I want to use my hand to trigger the note Sensor mode is the way to go.
Solution: Using Sensor Mode to Play Notes
While the Sensor mode is normally used to send MIDI Continuous Controller (CC) values from 0-127 to control parameters on synths and your DAW, there are also options to send MIDI Notes based on minimum sensor thresholds.
Implementation: Configuring AudioCube Function in MIDIBridge
Modes and settings for each cube are configured in the free app Percussa MIDIBridge. Click the image below to see a large version of the screenshot which illustrates how I configured individuals notes for Cube 1.
You can also see that even though I've set note triggering via the threshold, proximity to each cube face will case the LED intensity to respond according to the normal response curve and with a different color for each face. I continue this method with Cubes 2 & 3 to program the rest of the notes.
Like a Theremin, AudioCubes running in Sensor mode need to be calibrated. It's not because they are analog, but instead to take into account the amount of ambient and infrared signal in the "control zone". The screen shot above also shows how you can tweak gain to adjust for room – and of course you could experiment with "Threshold" as well. The darker the room the better fro the this particular method.
Virtual Ports, Ableton Live and Novaton Launchpad
In my rig, MIDIBridge talks through virtual MIDI ports (Midi Yoke) to Ableton Live. Live is playing some minimal original background tracks from the original album offering me a frame of reference for my performance. The signals from the AudioCubes are routed to various virtual instruments such as Camel Audio Alchemy, Absynth 5, and Sonic Charge Synplant. I assigned buttons on the Novation Launchpad to select and arm tracks (sometimes multiple tracks) so I can swap instruments out from under the cubes without having to load another MIDIBridge Patch.
The End Result: "Alone" Rehearsal Video
I shot this video back in September when I first figured all this out. I'm now actively rehearsing it and hope to add it to the show soon. The key to playing this song is to play just behind the pocket to give the notes more emotional tension. The AudioCubes are plenty sensitive enough to achieve this and the visual feedback not only helps the audience connect with the performance, but actually helps me with timing. As a musician, I really like the flow and feeling of the movement as well.
I shot this in 720p so if you have the bandwidth watch full screen at that resolution. I also captured audio right from my sound card so listen with good headphones or on a good sound system :^ ).

One Man, One Theremin, One AudioCube :^) In this video I perform the original instrumental electronic music song "Control Zone" off of my album I HEAR YOUR SIGNALS which you can download name your price (enter $0 for FREE) on

Listener/Viewer Notes
This video is in HD and I captured the audio full fidelity right from my sound card so listen with some good headphones or on a good system and select HD for full-screen viewing. The video and audio were captured in one continuous take with no content edits.
Composer Notes
To fit the back-story of my album, I set out to compose a song that sounded a bit alien in origin. To liberate myself from my typical compositional instrument of the keyboard, I decided to compose and perform the textures and melodies using only spatial controllers. I this case I used a Moog Etherwave Theremin, and a Percussa AudioCube. Once I got going with this notion I really got using 6 dimension of spatial control to go "Hendrix" with the Theremin. The title of the song has many meanings, one of which should be obvious to Theremin fans.
Producer Notes
I'm routing the Theremin analog signal into Ableton Live and then I convert the the signal from pitch-to-MIDI in real-time. This signal is routed to various virtual instruments hosted in Live. I then use a Percussa AudioCube in Sensor mode to add 4 additional dimensions of modulate in real-time. So 6 dimensions of spatial control. I'm changing the signal routing of the Theremin to route MIDI to different virtual instruments on the fly using the Novation Launchpad.

Watch Embedded Video (I recommend watching in HD!)
"Dark Signals" is a song from my album I Hear Your Signals. This is an original dark electronica song with driving big beats, bit-crushed high-hats, a dash of ambient texture, and distorted synth leads. It's one of my favorite songs off the album and is becoming a crowd favorite at live shows.
In the spirit of Free Music Friday you can get this song, or the entire album over at http://markmosher.bandcamp.com name your price (enter $0 for FREE).
The song and video are Copyright 2010 Mark J. Mosher and are under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 License.
This video is in HD and I captured the audio full fidelity right from my sound card. So I recommend you listen with some good headphones or on a good system. You can play full screen, and or stream to your home theater via Tivo, Apple TV.
The video and audio were captured in one continuous take with no content edits so you can here a few artifacts and – dare I say it – teeny mistakes here and there which I left in as it's part of the "character" of live performance. The only editing is on the video side where I added camera movement, camera mixing and visual effects.
Composer/Producer Notes
The song is original and was composed and produced entirely Ableton Live 8 with virtual instruments and lots of native Live effects. I either played all the notes, hand programmed the notes, or played them live.
The song is peformed in Session view. I have all the scenes laid out so I can control the arrangement on the fly in session view. I've mapped a foot controller plugged into my Novation Remote SL MIDI mapped to "Scene Launch" leaving my hands free to play and configure the Tenori-On function on the fly while advancing the arrangement. This also means I'm not locked in and can change the arrangement or extend scenes if I like.
It's a little hard to see, but when I'm playing keys, I'm riding the modulation wheel to add grit. I've also use after touch to add distortion like effects.
The Moog Etherwave Theremin signal is converted from pitch-to-MIDI using a VSTand is driving a textural pad from a virtual synth.
At the 1:42 mark I'm playing lead using Tenori-On matrix controller sending MIDI notes to a virtual synth running in Live. I also use a different "layer" in the Tenori-On to play the nasty metalic pad sound.
The blinking cubes are Percuss AudioCubes. Normally I use these as controllers, but in this song they are light sources which I programed and control using RGB MIDI clips from live.
I created a copy of this set for performance and then froze and flattened tracks with virtual instruments that were either not being played live or were not being modulated live. As a result, I got my set load time down to about 6 seconds and my CPU load down to around 10-20% peaking at around 25% even though I'm playing some VSTs live.

New Magazine launch --Independent Streak Magazine
Independent Magazine features content geared to the indie film world worldwide but with a focus on South Florida. It has interviews with filmmakers, screenwriters, actor spotlights, events and more.
For Publisher Rachel Galvin, the magazine, which will feature local Florida and international content, has become a labor of love.
In MAY, Independent Streak Magazine (I.S.) was launched to the world with Jason Priestly ("Beverly Hills 90210") on the cover and an inside story about his independent film "Cas & Dylan." It also featured articles on other films, directors and actors. Another highlight was an interview with Master Sang, a world reknowned martial artists who was in "Rush Hour 2" & "Rush Hour 3" as well as involved in the upcoming Brett Ratner film, "Hercules."
For the JUNE issue, I.S. stepped it up a notch with classy actress Joan Collins on the cover, best known for her role in "Dynasty." In addition, a two page article about her ups and downs in the world of acting graces the front of the magazine. Filmmakers can find content on how to make a documentary or read an interview with a director who has used special effects. They can learn about how making a film in their hometown might be a better approach than in Los Angeles or New York. Up and coming local actress Julie Kendall is spotlighted and Aussie actress Kelly Pantaleoni, whose film was just at Cannes, talks about the fest, how she got into character and her move to Los Angeles. Other pics from Cannes (including from "Foxcatcher"
What does July hold in store?
"Even more," says publisher Rachel Galvin, who adds that Independent Streak Magazine is a dream come true. She is working on July now.
Galvin has been in the film industry in many aspects, from an actor, producer and host to a talent manager and casting director. She has her own award-winning radio show (Best Web Radio Show 2013, Women in Film Miami), Indie Streak (www.blogtalkradio.com/
In addition, Galvin is a freelance journalist and editor. She began her career in the writing world in 1997 in Los Angeles and has worked for over 35 publications in South Florida.
"My goal is to support independent filmmakers by providing them with an outlet to get their vision to the world. I hope the content in the magazine will inspire, educate and entertain people," says Galvin.
Galvin is still working on building up her new website (www.independentstreakmagazine.com)

Little bit of waiting time in office when waiting to see doctor. However i feel doctor does a good exam of my child, good bedside manner, always ask if i have questions. Also always goes over milestones that my child should be reaching in the next growth spurt. Would recommend. Doctor is also receptive to alternative methods such as alternative vaccine schedule, etc
I think Dr. Hadeed is a great doctor. But what don't like is the wait time and his staff. His medical assistant is rude and personalable. My son doesn't like her as well. The last few visits we have an average wait time of 30 min. Yesterday we were told that we were his first patient. The appt was at 8:30am and didn't get seen until 9:15am. That is a problem for us. While we were out of state our son broke his finger. We called his office the next morning to make a recheck appt. They told my wife that they will have all the doctor notes and x-rays sent to them. We se an appt 5 days from that day and when we came in he didn't have a clue why we were there. The Dr notes and x-rays weren't even requested like the said they would. His MA said they were and liedto our face. I called the hospital where my son was at and they told me nobody has requested his medical records. I like Dr. Hadeed but I think he is over booked. I don't like his MA or other staff. My son doesn't like the MA as well.

In a case-control study of 92 Indian patients, 46 with active tuberculosis (cases) and 46 tuberculin reactors without the disease (control subjects), significantly more control subjects than patients had prior adequate isoniazid chemoprophylaxis. While the Indian Health Service recommends treating all tuberculin reactors with isoniazid prophylaxis, most (75%) of our tuberculosis (TB) cases could have been prevented if the guidelines of the American Thoracic Society had been followed. Diabetes, alcohol abuse, and chronic renal failure were risk factors for active TB. Despite marked reductions in TB morbidity and mortality rates among American Indians and Alaska Natives over the past 30 years, their TB rates are still two to three times higher than overall United States and white rates. Enhanced TB control programs with an emphasis on preventive therapy for patients at risk for developing active disease, especially those with diabetes and chronic renal failure, could decrease the incidence and eventually eliminate TB among American Indians and Alaska Natives.

Superpowers: The American Academic Elite

Indiana University, Center for the Study of Global Change

It finds that hiring is closely related to one's Ph.D. alma mater as a form on institutional affiliation. Descriptive statistics for this impact are given and include that the top five programs place 20% of all R1 academics and the top eleven place 50%.
