Nov 6, 2011 at 1:22 am #1281601
Inspired by the "What do you do for a living?" thread, I wonder if anyone would be up for a discussion on careers related to the great outdoors?
I am an IT Project manager, and I spend most, if not all, of my 8-hour day sitting at a desk in front of a computer. I try to surf as many outdoor/nature-related websites that I can to fuel my mental escapes. But still there's no substitute for the real thing, am I right?
So, recently I have been doing some research, trying to figure out what my career options are. I am not looking for a career in the outdoor industry per se, I just want to work outdoors (and get away from a desk/computer at least 50% of the time). Also, I am looking into "viable" career options, "viable" meaning I can support a family, pay mortgage on a modest home, etc.
So, for those of you already working in the outdoors:
1. What do you do? How did you end up in your current role?
2. What sort of skills, experience, or education (qualifications) is required for obtaining a job in your field? What sort of personal qualities are necessary for suceeding in your job?
3. What is your ratio of desk/office work to work in the field?
4. What are the most satisfying/least satisifying aspects of your job?
5. What are the current and projected employment trends in your field? Are jobs being added or elimnated, etc.? How stable is employment?
Thanks in advance…Nov 6, 2011 at 6:16 am #1799052

Here are a few thoughts:
My husband works in Tech for a large company. It is a hard job doing what he does but it pays well. 8 hours a day? Wow, you have it easy. He works on average 60-70 hours a week!!
But let us look into his brain – when he goes into the outdoors it is pure pleasure for him, it is his vacation, his down time. And truthfully his work keeps his brain engaged. He does live for his nerdy work, he is a fixer of issues and problems – where no one else sees the solution.
My brother on the other hand has worked in the outdoors for many years and recently took as he puts it…a cushy indoors job. He realized at 40 he was getting too old to be freezing or sweating his rear off all day. Any job that requires outdoor time is going to physically demanding. Even the people who do surveying are outside all day, standing on their feet. Consider why so many guys doing construction attempt to become the boss by 40! They hurt!
Does that nirvana exist of 50/50%? Maybe. It could be there. But what you can well trade is a good paying tech career for a job that has its own boredom's and physical toil for a lot less $$. Sure you could get a job in wildlife management or forestry where you do go outside but you might find yourself being a paper pusher as well.
My husband's theory is put in the time, pay our mortgage down as quickly as we can, live below our means and because of that we can afford to enjoy our pleasure time.
Try to remember that if you make your hobbies your job you can end up hating your hobbies. But that is just my 2 cents.Nov 6, 2011 at 6:23 am #1799053

@simplespiritLocale: .
I did what you do (more or less), and spent the last 12 years or my life working a desk job in the IT field. My role varied. I got paid extremely well and wouldn't be where I'm at now were it not for doing that and living lean. With that said, the last 5 or so years I spent depressed and burnt out. In April, I retired from that life. Prior to quitting though, I took on my role with BPL managing the School. My wife just finished her Doctorate and is a licensed Physical Therapist, so now she brings home the big bucks and I play for extra income. We basically traded roles for a little while and I plan to play until I feel like I need a real income again (which may never happen).Nov 6, 2011 at 4:02 pm #1799182
Hi Sarah,
I understand what you're trying to say, but…
I don't think I can stay in an IT job much longer, even if I wanted to. Doing project management, IT support work, etc., as I do is a losing proposition. Despite being knowledgeable, hardworking, diligent, a proven record of successes, getting on well with colleages, etc., I have been fired more times than I care to tabulate (usually for reasons beyond my influence or control–e.g., company merger, redundancy, etc.). Thanks to the inherent instability of the industry, companies now won't give my resume a second glance because "I've had too many jobs in the past." Great.
I should also mention that there is the trend to hire younger workers (and fire the older ones) as a method of controlling cost. But what about quality? you might ask. Quality has gone out the window. It's the bottom line that counts (it always did, but companies have become more ruthless about this–at the expense of quality, worker morale, etc.). That plus the trend to get cheap foreign workers via offshoring/outsourcing doesn't bode well for a stable future for the industry.
So, I gave 15 years of my life trying to build something that just wasn't meant to be, a career in IT. I'm too "old" to continue in my current capacity, yet I am still young enough to make a career change (and do the education, training, etc. that may be required), and perhaps embark in a career direction that is more stable, rewarding, personally fulfilling*, enjoyable, etc.
*sigh* I miss the good 'ole days when people were thought of as "people" and not "resources", when a person didn't have to pursue a career they weren't suited for in order to make a decent living…
*I currently work for a hedge fund, helping rich people get richer–how fulfilling is that?Nov 6, 2011 at 7:42 pm #1799242

My field is archaeology, and I was able to get plenty of field time, as well as make a decent living. I spent forty years in the National Park Service, most of which were really fine. In my final posting, working in a fairly large park, I spent about 40% of my time in the field, both on land and on the water.
You must realize that in any job like this, a fair amount of your time will be spent behind a desk, even in the best of circumstances. In the worst situations, you may find yourself shuffling papers (probably now you would actually be shuffling electrons) for dubious results. That was my lot for a few years and fortunately I was able to bust out and improve my situation.
Obviously, whatever area you may to enter, some retraining will be necessary. Your IT background will undoubtedly benefit you.
Whatever field you choose, be sure it has appeal to you above and beyond its requirement for outdoor time. Good luck.Nov 6, 2011 at 8:23 pm #1799250

Good for you on looking for a change. One thing to keep in mind that turning "hobbies" or things you enjoy into work sometimes takes the luster away from it.
I second what Sarah said. I spent many years working as an automotive technician, in the days when we did not have climate controlled-shops. Blazing hot in the summer and bone chilling cold in the winter. Standing on my feet for 8-12 hours per day. Hard on the body after many years. I would think a lot of other outdoor jobs are the same. And if you are good, you will get pushed up to management and doing something similar to what you are now doing.
It is my opinion that most people want to be productive. The problem is finding a job you love. I "tele-commute." My corporate office is almost 3,000 miles away. How did I get this job? Well, I expanded the breadth of my skills, and really created my own job in the company. I work at home anywhere from 50% – 90% of the time. Depends upon the the year, what our account executives sell, the economy, and a lot of other factors. The rest of the time I travel all over the country. And I work a lot of hours. 60 hours is normal and it can go over 100 hours in a week. But I don't waste time commuting, and the important point is that I like to work, and those long hours are by choice most of the time. I could work less, even just 40 hours per week. But I rarely work on a weekend… I usually go hiking.Nov 7, 2011 at 11:58 am #1799413

I am currently on the job hunt finishing up my M.S in geoscience and water resource management this December (job prospects are somewhat better than average). I've interned and will discuss that as it is related to most jobs I'm applying for in the tri-state area. Environmental geologists in the northeast tend to work mostly with EPA superfund sites and other construction/clean-up locations through outside engineering contractors. As entry level, we tend to mostly do soil, sediment, and groundwater sampling as well as oversee drilling and remediation. You are in the field quite a bit on average. I am trained in hydrogeological modelling and tend to incorporate more computer based work utilizing arc gis for spatial analysis & modflow for 3d modelling of groundwater flow.
A Bachelors in env. science, geology, hydrogeology, or engineering is usually the prereq. Masters is preferred; analytical thinking and a reasonable level of physical fitness helps. Geologists tend to be a jack of all trades on many levels.
As an intern it was around >60% field to deskwork. Mind you, these are often pretty nasty spots… a polluted former transit station, a old factory dumping ddts into a river, etc. With greater education and experience you often end up with more office time.
I will certainly be able to provide a better answer to this question when I am employed full-time (knocks on wood), though I think this is a pretty excellent career for getting outside.Nov 8, 2011 at 5:21 pm #1799886

@whiskyjackLocale: The Canadian Shield
Still in school working on a B.Sc Geology & Geophysics double honors degree. I'm focused on the resource exploration aspects. I spent last summer doing gold exploration up in northern Canada, I was out in the bush pretty much every day, boating and hiking around mapping outcrops and collecting soil & rock samples. It didn't really satisfy my lust for the outdoors though, I still had to go on my own hikes on my days off to get my fix. Next summer I'm aiming for an oil job, which would have a lot less field work, but a lot more money.
Previously I was a forest firefighter, which obviously has you working in the bush daily and pays very well considering you don't need any qualifications.
Whats important to me is a job that fascinates me, pays well and offers enough time off to actually enjoy what you earn. A lot of geology jobs offer 2 weeks on/2 weeks off type rotations and good salaries. I'm looking forward to going on vacation every month.Nov 8, 2011 at 6:05 pm #1799896

Yes, I've been working as a Geologist for 22 years. Unfortunately as you get more experience and move up in salary, you do less field work and more office work. I try to get out to the field as often as I can… I would say about 30-40% my time is spent in the field. I have worked for the U.S. Geological Survey, Boeing, other public geotechnical and environmental firms, and now I work for a private environmental firm. I've been happy with my career choice… I certainly can't imagine sitting in a cubicle staring at a computer screen everyday.Nov 8, 2011 at 7:19 pm #1799913

@mtwardenLocale: Montana
game warden
most states require a BS degree in wildlife or related field, additional experience in law enforcement is a big plus
if selected for testing you'll go through several written tests, a pretty demanding physical fitness test, series of interviews, session with a psychologist and a thorough background before getting hired- in your first year you'll go through a 12 week law enforcement academy and 8-10 weeks w/ a FTO (Field Training Officer)
they are looking for independent folks (you work almost exclusively alone) along with a good heaping of common sense :)
field wardens spend 85-90% time in the field, 10-15% behind a desk, if you advance up through the supervisory ranks that ratio starts shifting unfortunately :(
working outdoors in all seasons is pretty darn satisfying, sometimes things will become very political- those are generally less than satisfying
forecasts for landing a job in this field are probably the best they've been in 20+ years, while it's still competitive there are a lot more openings than there have been in the past
once hired the work is very stable, we rely solely on sportsman dollars there are no tax dollars involved so very low risk of getting laid off
pay is decent (but not great), benefits are very good
I can't think of many (any?) jobs that I'd trade forNov 9, 2011 at 8:25 am #1800031

@sarbarLocale: In the shadow of Mt. Rainier
Well yes, anyone who has worked in IT since the 90's knows what a ride it has been. My husband has seen the highs and lows. He has worked for companies that imploded, got merged and more. He has been working in Tech since the 90's.
The worst was watching WaMu circle the toilet in 2008 wondering how long his job would be there (he spent 5 years there). He got head hunted a month or so before WaMu went under, went to work for another company in GA and then that company failed in the spring of 2009 due to the recession. The company failed overnight and we had no idea what we'd do – Seattle was full of laid off Tech workers from…yep…WaMu. But my husband has been good at one thing his career – networking. In Tech out here you have to do it, all the time. If you get an invite to an event, you go. You never know where networking will take you! It landed my husband a job a month after being laid off (we were planning for at minimum a year out of work and trying to keep me insured). It was because he knew someone, who knew someone and so on. That job was a contract position and it led to full time within the group, of which my husband holds now. He was able to help a couple of his coworkers from the bank days (who were in his group) get new positions as well. Resumes are a kind of dead writing at this point – getting your foot in the door you have to know someone in the know. You have to have people who will vouch for your experience and work ethics. At least out here it is like that.
I am not bragging – the point is he didn't stay stagnant. He takes classes when offered, gets certifications when they come up. He goes to boring (to him) parties and events (he isn't very social). He knows he has to have his face out there to stay relevant! He knows the realistic thing is that his job will change yet again, nothing is permanent. Head hunters can be your friend.
Ironically my husband has had many trips to other countries with this job – to check up on the labor used there.So we are still relevant even when we use foreign labor. They do things we don't necessarily want to (although in the case of WaMu that wasn't so – they were bringing in so many cheap foeriegners to work…but that is a whole 'nother story)
But here is the rub – even jobs involving the outdoors are changing rapidly. The funding isn't there for state or federal ones, private industry has its own ethics and issues – especially with being funded and not failing. I don't think there is ANY industry that doesn't have issues or the fear of there not being jobs. Again, age is also a fixture – the young guy who is hungry will be more likely to work for $10-20K less a year (or more) or worse be willing to start at entry level in an outdoor related job! This makes him more likely to be hired.
And as for outdoor related jobs are you willing to actually make that much less?
In Tech jobs it is easy to make $60 to 125K a year (and $125 is just a a random number – I know many guys out here that pull in 150 or more, who work as DBA's). But in work related to the outdoors you could be looking at $30 to 60K at most. Are you willing to actually make that little?
I totally am open that my husband working in Tech is why I am a SAHM and can afford to not work outside the home – being paid good money can make a less than fun job worthwhile. The fantasy of another life can be less than fulfilling if suddenly you are living on a lot less!Nov 9, 2011 at 9:31 am #1800052

Check out BLM job postings, there are many positions (most) that get employees outdoors for a majority of the work week. My father is an office manager for the local office here and he's outside weekly for the most random job tasks. On Monday he was paid to hike out to the Little Hatchet mtns in the bootheel of NM to check on a remote wildlife camera and check conditions on a water tank. Some weeks he is gone on wilderness fire fighting duties, other weeks they're tagging big horn sheep along the border, or riding ATVs out in the desert aiding in nonnative plant species eradication….the list goes on.
I've been looking for entry level job opportunities with them. The pay probably isn't as substantial as IT, but its not too difficult to make due with "very little".Nov 9, 2011 at 11:21 am #1800101

Would you consider something like education? I know that teaching isn't outside, but then there are those two months of recovery you get in the summer.
While the pay isn't great, if you have a spouse to supplement your income, it can work with careful planning and budgeting. That, and it's really, really hard to do a good job teaching unwilling minds.
If you're interested at all, I'll gladly tell you more.Nov 11, 2011 at 5:52 am #1800712
Hi Clayton,
I would consider education. As a matter of fact, I am considering returning to school to get a Master's, PhD in biology or a closely related field to pursue college teaching as an option.
On that note, I am also considering getting a second bachelor's in environmental engineering, however I am concerned that I would face age discrimination in competing with relatively younger individuals for jobs. Actually, I'm already starting to experience age discrimination.Nov 23, 2011 at 3:52 pm #1804940

I went back to school a couple of years ago and now, at almost 36 years old, I will be graduating late next summer. My AA will be in sociology. I had originally intended to go into the Peace Corps or other non-profit, but I am seeing how difficult it will be to get in there, even if I had a Bachelor's. Also, I am strongly reconsidering my field as a few isolated factors recently have made me shift to the outdoors again as my main interest – in fact, it feels like this is where I've belonged all this time, looking back on my life. An epiphany, maybe, but a late one.
I'm not sure what to do. I'm looking into FWC jobs and am more than willing to relocate (not a fan of South Florida, though I was born here). I was speaking to an officer last weekend, and he said that my best bet would be work as a seasonal employee, but that I had to live simply as the pay is usually around $35K for 6 months. Ha! I make $30K now for the whole year at a dead-end job working on marine hydraulics.
My real dream, of course, would be to find steady work as a freelance wildlife photographer. Steve Bloom is highly successful and he did it at around the same age or older, switching from another career. I'd have to be out there a lot more than I am now, shooting and shooting and hoping someone picks up on my work. But that's not a definite, and at this stage I think I need something more concrete. Combining my AA background with nature – humans in relation to the wilderness – may have possibilities, but I have just started thinking along these lines so have a lot more research to do.
Please excuse the rambling… This thread caught my eye for obvious reasons.Nov 29, 2011 at 10:35 am #1806729

Chris, I'm sorry that it's taken me over two weeks to respond. My wife's family was in town, then we were out of town for the holidays, and then I picked up a bug in the airport and have been recovering for the past few days. Hopefully, though, this will help you some, especially after the long wait!
When I mentioned education, I had public school in mind, not necessarily higher-ed. So if this isn't what you are interested in, feel free to ignore most of the rest of this post. If it can't help you, then maybe it can help someone else.
Right now, a lot of states offer some kind of alternative certification, for those who have Bachelor's Degrees or higher, but no education degree. I went through one of those in my home state (Texas), and found it to be mostly a mixed bag. Your biggest hurdle will be getting a principal to take your application seriously. A lot of alternative certification candidates are less than serious about what they're doing or are only using it as some kind of back up if their career goes down. But, there are several people who are excellent teachers-in-waiting too. You just have to separate the wheat from the chaff.
My program, run through the state of Texas, took me 15 months to complete, 9 of those while working in a school district and having the program deduct a portion of my salary each month to pay for it. All in all, you can expect to pay around $5,000-6,000. It's a lot of money, but you pay the majority of it when you get a job.
One thing to keep in mind is to look for university-based certification programs. They count your work in the program towards a Master's Degree. Depending on your location, they may or may not have the best connection to actual districts; that's something you'll have to research for yourself.
Most states have some kind of reciprocity with each other, meaning that once you're certified, it's mostly a paperwork process to get it transferred to another state. You may have to take a different test to prove that you know your stuff, but otherwise it's much less of a hassle than getting started fresh.
This is where my story takes a dark turn. I didn't do the university-based route because I have a Master's in a different field, I just didn't see the point in earning more college hours. I also didn't tak that route because the key benefit of the program I was in was its close connections to local districts, thus providing networking to find a good job. I did everything, got certified, and had a great year teaching. Then my wife got offered a job in Montana (yes to backpacking!), but when I got here I found out that Montana is different than just about every other state. They ONLY want university-based certification (traditional or alternative) and since they won't recognize my program, they won't certify me. I found that out last week, so now I'm starting over too, and I'm not sure what to do short of re-doing all the stuff that I've done. So, we'll see.
I hope this helps. At least I can get outside while I'm unemployed right now!Nov 29, 2011 at 11:52 am #1806758

Why not a "hoods in the woods" program, working with 'at risk' populations? Degree are great but even people with nerdy degrees sometimes work in human relations. One guy I knew had a mathematics degree but ending up working as a counselor at a youth prison since the Clinton era (when he could have been working in computers), and was last pursuing a Master's in Psychology.
You may also want to look into a B.A. in a techie field so you don't lose the hours you have. Just some options.Dec 1, 2011 at 7:54 pm #1807794

You know, that's a very interesting concept. Being from the 'hood myself (by original location, not really in spirit), a lot of these kids and I can relate.

The No. 1 Predictor Of Career Success According To Network Science - Forbes
Michael Simmons stashed this in How To Be A Super Connector
Stashed in: Networking, Awesome, Jobs, Networking, @michaeldsimmons, Networking, Networking, Ne
This is perhaps the most well-received article that I've ever written. It's on the power of open networks.
Yes! I think it hits on part of people's identity that they can relate to and haven't voiced.More specifically, we live in a world with a lot of siloes and mentalities that are siloed. There is a large group who don't fit into one group and have lots of interests and lots of different circles. They often feel like outsiders and haven't learned how to turn this difference into a strength. Others are parts of different groups and have learned how to connect them and almost use it as their competitive advantage for their career. But this approach to career isn't talked about as much compared to the approach of being razor focused. One observation about writing overall is that people react much more strongly when the article goes beyond simply knowledge transfer to hitting on celebrating an identity that is often unappreciated by others. This is one of my guesses on why Adam Grant's book did so well. It did this for the community of Givers.
Adam Grant does sometimes talk about how we must sometimes look outside our own networks.
I think you're right that the people who can go between networks and make connections do a great service to the people they are connecting.
Often the most interesting ideas come when two people of different domains connect.
Adam - Out of curiosity, have you noticed differences in impact when you connect people in different domains vs. the same domain?
Yes, when they actually connect, which is actually rare.
Most people don't like to leave the comfort zone of others who share their domain.
The bottom line:
According to multiple, peer-reviewed studies, simply being in an open network instead of a closed one is the best predictor of career success.
In the chart, the further to the right you go toward a closed network, the more you repeatedly hear the same ideas, which reaffirm what you already believe. The further left you go toward an open network, the more you're exposed to new ideas. People to the left are significantly more successful than those to the right.
In fact, the study shows that half of the predicted difference in career success (i.e., promotion, compensation, industry recognition) is due to this one variable.
You can apply these economic success principles to societies as well as individuals... most open, large societies achieve financially better results than small, closed ones.
Hey Michael, I can dig the:
"That makes me a half-black, half-white, 6'5" guy born into a half-Christian half-Jewish family. Growing up in the almost entirely white, middle-class suburb of Hopewell, NJ, made me feel like an outsider on some level."
I'm a first-generation Merikan semite with an English-Hungarian mother and a Lebanese-Jamaican father... so it's easy for me to posit we are all outsiders. I've also found even within the so-called whitebread communities there are always smaller and smaller levels of increasing insularity and exclusiveness – there appears to be a natural gravitational force of social relations towards small, closed network existence.
One great question your article presents for us individually (and perhaps collectively) is whether or not we are curious enough, at every stage of life, to actually stand up, go look around with open eyes and ears and ask questions about what's going on... reminds me why the ancient Levantine, Greek and Roman cultures did so well.
I hadn't looked at any studies of personal curiosity dispositions as correlate to ongoing success, but I think your insight into Jobs is excellent and on point. And is symptomatic of a more commonly overlooked skill set – a learning disposition.
Whenever I select people for innovation projects I always bias the grouping to those with learning dispositions and the simplest behavioral heuristic for determining that skill is observing their ratio of declarative statements made to questions asked...
So your point makes total sense: curiosity and quality listening is a very powerful skill set, but either alone it is not enough... "smile (if you understand) and ask" wins the day, everyday. Add those skills to the uncompromising focus on quality that Jobs had and you've got Yahtzee!
And that quality focus reminds me of another great titan of creative industry: Walt Disney.
Love it Rob! I've never thought about curiosity at a cultural and historical level. You mentioning Levantine, Greek, and Roman cultures piqued my curiosity. Any books you know of that talk about curiosity at a cultural level?Also, when people say they like the article, I often ask why. To your point, one of the responses is that they feel pressure to grow up and have less curiosity as they get older and they felt like the article presented the perspective that they didn't have to 'grow up' in that sense of the words.
I haven't really found any books explicitly treating the insight of curiosity at the level of a societal driver or cultural artifact... I was just making a casual observation from being a wide-ranging reader of history and being curious about what makes things happen.
Perhaps understanding curiosity is too simplistic and common sense a heuristic for serious academic research or commercial finan

A Fly
What do you call a fly that cannot fly?
A flightless fly in need?
Or a sunny seed that cannot seed?
A sorry seed indeed?
If you strip away our meaning,
Our freedom and our grace…
Do we sit and wait for something…
Just stare death in the face?
But a flightless fly does not die,
Nor sit around and wait.
For a flightless fly carries on,
Unaware of fate.
If you strip away the feeling,
The mortality and time…
We won't wait forever thinking…
But live life at its prime.
So the sorry seed is silent,
Not ignorant in life…
But waiting for its meaning…
Searching soundly in strife.

MICHAEL Clarke made light of his continuing run drought, joking he could be forced out of the side if Shane Watson returns for the third and deciding Test in Cape Town.
"If it goes on form, it might be me," Clarke said with a laugh.
The Australian captain is well aware that he has failed to a manage score of over 24 in his last 11 innings after beginning the Ashes series in Australia with centuries in the first two Tests.
He made just one as the South African pace attack destroyed Australia with brilliant reverse swing, bowling their team to a 231-run victory in the second Test to level the series at 1-1.
While Clarke's place is not in doubt he knows his run of low scores will increasingly become a talking point, particularly if the team bats as badly as it did in this Test.
"Obviously I'd like to score a hundred every time I bat," Clarke said.
"I'm not looking forward to the next however many press conferences until I make a score over 25 or 50 or a hundred.
"I have been there before. The one thing I will say is that in this game of cricket you have some great times and I remember those fondly.
"There are some tough times and it makes you enjoy the good times. Right now you're right, it is 11 innings since I've scored 25. I'm due."
Clarke seemed to take some comfort from the fact that former captain Mark Taylor went 21 innings with a top score of 43 during 1996 and 1997.
"I've got room to play. Hopefully we're not having this discussion in the next press conference," Clarke said.
He will have mixed memories of returning to Cape Town. During his last Test there two and a half years ago Clarke played his best Test innings, making 151, more than half the team's score, against the might of Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander and Morne Morkel on a lively pitch.
Australia was then bowled out for 47 in its second innings to lose by eight wickets.
Australia's batting hero was Chris Rogers, who made a defiant, career-saving 107 which almost took the match into a fifth day, with rain forecast.
He was run out in bizarre circumstances during the second last over and then Nathan Lyon was leg before wicket with just four balls remaining even though replays showed he had hit the ball. Australia had no reviews left.
Clarke was surprised that the umpires decided to give South Africa the optional half an hour extra to push for a result with Australia seven wickets down but agreed that it was correct.
Originally published as Clarke: on form, I might miss out

Nine months later, Eaton and Winterbottom are standing in the murky dawn light on Edinburgh's Royal Mile - closed to traffic for the first time, it seems, since a visit by the queen a decade ago - shepherding a crowd of some 500 extras togged up in 19th-century costumes, from plush academic gowns to muddy rags and toe-gaping hobnailed boots. They are filming a climactic scene for Jude, a theatrical feature based on Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure, budgeted at just over pounds 4.5 million.
The social composition of this crowd of extras is interestingly mixed, from one Dr Klein, a courteous young marine biologist from Israel (who took the gig because "I'm very interested in movies, and wanted to see how it was done"), to a number of, shall we say, less academically established natural philosophers and regional poets, who are mainly there for the money (about 30 quid a day), but are no less happy to while away the hours with erudite disquisitions on the hallucinogenic properties of a common Scottish hedgerow plant (after treatment in a vacuum flask), the significance of magic mushrooms in the evolution of human consciousness and the cosmological wisdoms encoded in the dimensions of the Great Pyramid.
There is also one unpaid fake in the company: your reporter, originally typecast in the dialogue-free role of "village idiot", but recast at the last minute in the possibly less apt part of "eccentric academic", for which he sports a stiff collar, tweed jacket, natty moleskin weskit and his own, fortunately rather retro-looking brogues (the wardrobe department has no size 12 boots). At first, being an extra had seemed like the best way of covering the shoot, but as any fool knows, the job of an extra is largely made up of that unrewarding activity known as Hanging Around, and as the early winter winds are cruel up here in Auld Reekie, grave second thoughts do not take more than half an hour to set in. Only the miracle of thermal underwear stands between us and chilblains.
The earliest glimmerings of this production began a couple of years ago, when the producer-director team of Winterbottom and Eaton were editing Family, the Roddy Doyle drama for the BBC about brutality and mercy in Dublin: "We had a production assistant called Judy," Eaton recalls, "and we asked her if she was ever called `Jude' for short, and the conversation rambled on to the book, which Michael said was his favourite novel. I have to confess that I hadn't read it at the time, though I like Hardy a lot and had been trying to sell the BBC the idea of redoing some of the Wessex stories. So then Michael and I started to talk more seriously about doing it, and when Mark Shivas (head of theatric films at the BBC) took us out to dinner after a festival screening of Family and asked us what we wanted to do next, we both said that we wanted to do Jude the Obscure as a feature."
Shivas agreed to put up money for script development, but the project was simply too pricey for the BBC to fund alone, so the newly independent Eaton set out on the usual producer's run, armed with a script that had been commissioned from Hossein Amini (who wrote the Bafta-nominated drama The Dying of the Light). By start of the Cannes Festival in May, he had set up meetings with three possible backers. "Michael and I went to see Fox Searchlight in the morning, UGC at lunchtime, and Polygram in the afternoon. Fox told us they loved the script but couldn't do it because it's far too depressing (they particularly objected to the hanging of Jude's children), and you can't have dead kids in America, particularly after the Oklahoma bombings. UGC liked it, but they wanted big stars attached and didn't have the kind of money available that would make that possible. And then we went to see Polygram and they said, `OK, fine, let's do it.' "
Two weeks later, Jude was in pre-production. Shooting started at the beginning of October, with a cast including Christopher Eccleston (Shallow Grave) as Jude Fawley, Kate Winslet (Heavenly Creatures and Emma Thompson's forthcoming Sense and Sensibility) as his cousin and inamorata Sue Bridehead, and June Whitfield as his Aunt Drusilla. On the production side, Jude boasts the distinguished Portuguese cinematographer Eduardo Serra, who shot Vincent Ward's Map of the Human Heart and, more recently, Peter Chelsom's Funny Bones.
All well and good, the Hardy enthusiast might reply, but what on earth are the crew and cast doing in Edinburgh? Haven't they noticed that the book is set in "Wessex", and that the "Christminster" to which Jude hopelessly aspires is plainly meant to be Oxford? Eaton has at least some of the answers. "It was clear from the outset that we weren't going to shoot it in `Wessex', because we wanted it to be wide screen - Eduardo is filming it in a sort of CinemaScope, anamorphic process - with a big story feel, and you can't get that kind of landscape in Dorset any more because of the powerlines, the motorway and the television aerials. So we came further north, first to Yorkshire, and then on to Durham and Edinburgh, which is standing in for `Christminster'. We did have a look at the possibility of filming in Oxford, or of combining Oxford with Bristol, but it just would have been much too expensive - closing down Broad Street, dressing all the shop fronts..."
Edinburgh, moreover, fitted in well with Winterbottom's idea of making the stone buildings seen in each new location of the story appear darker and darker, culminating in the near-black buildings which flank the Remembrance Day parade. Which is why we, the huddled masses, are shivering and shuffling around in front of the Edinburgh Law Courts, discussing Pyramidology and turning fetching shades of bright pink and blue beneath our goose pimples.
From time to time we are spurred by the assistant director into a fair replica of holiday jollity as the dons and undergraduates file past us for their parade, while Jude watches hungrily and thinks of what might have been. Between shots, as no one is allowed to leave his or her position even for a call of nature, there is absolutely nothing to do except jiggle uncomfortably from foot to foot, chat to one's immediate neighbours or daydream.
Dimly recalling Stanislavsky's Method, I try to pass the time by thinking of a suitable real-life eccentric academic on whom to model my performance, and come up with William Buckland, Oxford's first Professor of Geology, who was noted for his willingness to consume anything from moles to bluebottles in the interests of science. Once, when he was visiting a foreign cathedral, the priests showed Buckland a miraculously self-renewing puddle of martyrs blood. Buckland promptly leant over, stuck his finger in the puddle, tasted it and declared, with unimpeachable authority, "Bat's urine." This anecdote goes down gratifyingly well with the regional poets.
After about seven hours of this near-zero malarkey, it is early afternoon and we are finally allowed to break for lunch. Deciding that the novelty of being an extra has worn gossamer-thin, I break ranks like an abject coward and go to hang out with the crew for the rest of the day's shooting. This is a decided improvement: not only do you get to ease and warm your cramped limbs by walking up and down, you also have the chance to talk to professionals like Mr Serra.
The final sequence of the day is for a process known as crowd replication, whereby the 500 extras are going to be made to look like a throng of thousands through digital technology. Eaton explains: "We take 200 actors, put them in one corner of the square, shoot the procession coming through, move the actors to another section, shoot the procession coming through... we do the whole thing four or five times, and then you use a computer to match the different takes into a single shot."
It is a technique that requires fairly constant light, and as daylight fades away rapidly around four o'clock in these latitudes, this is quite a tense process. But Serra gets his shots, and we can all head off, shed our tweeds and rags and thermals and defrost in a hot bath. Before catching the last train back south, I manage a final quick word with Eaton. "You know," he says, "we walked along La Croisette in May, Michael and I, and we were saying, `Ha ha ha, wouldn't it be funny if we were back here next May with Jude?' And now it's looking quite likely that we will be. It's really a bit of a fairytale." Don't speak too soon, Eaton. If I don't see that "academic eccentric" credit up on screen, your career is toast.

Brandon: this hasnt happened before....
She's hugging that thing i thought.
i stood up and was going to launch myself at Meita when violet came and stood between us saying id be unconcious and stuff... yeahh whatever.
i looked over and Kayden was shaking her head .
Those guys took Drake, my brother Drake and it could have stopped them! how can i not? i pleaded in my head. she shook her head then gestured for me to follow her.
i shoved my way through everyone at the door and sat down beside her on the staircase, my eyes itching.
"ARGHH!!" i screamed hitting my head on the step deliberatly.
She took my head in her hands to stop me from doing it again and looked me in my burning eyes. "You-" she began "are being an idiot"
i looked up at her then pulled myself away, standing up.
i began pacing, the heat traveling its way up my body. "its his fault!" i mumbled repeatedly to myself. fire burned in my hand and Kayden looked slightly scared. i kept chanting to myself even though something was wrong. my body... it felt... well, different. it started with a warm feeling which slowly started to prickle hotly on my skin. creeping its way up my legs, the fire grew, unbelievably not burning my jeans, it slithered across my bare chest and over my face. my eyes now itching like mad!
i hadnt noticed and just generally tried to calm myself down. pinching the bridge of my nose, i lent forward and put my hand out to hold onto the bannister but i stumbled. the bannister had melted away at the touch of my hand! i looked over at Kayden who had shoved herself up against the wall scared.
i looked over my hands and arms, burning, the rest of my body... i was like a human fire ball.
"Kayden?" i asked shakily "kayden? pleasee? help me?... it hasnt dont this before!" i was scared. she didnt have to read my mind to know that i was.

& a comparison or 2
A poem about childish things.
You are like a child
who grows younger
& younger
every day,
smoothing over lines
with the sharp -cracks- of a smile,
& swaying
back & forth,
back & forth
like the swing
in an overgrown backyard,
like the child who sits
on that swing
& grows backwards,
you regress further
with every moment.
You are like the hair that grows
from the head of the child,
& unruly
& never the same.
Like their small, chubby fingers,
you are clumsy,
s t u m b l i n g around a dark world
that offers you
no rest
from your actions,
(& yet)
unlike a small child
who is more clever,
& observing
each moment in life,
by leaps & b o u n d s , showing
that there is hope yet for them
in our adult world,)
you cannot seem to learn
from the mistakes you make.
Each error leads to another;
like a child,
you are running in a circle,
forever chasing a butterfly
that has lost its wings.
Your toys lie
scattered around you,
& broken.
Like a child,
you grow tired
of the same old routine,
the people you see
& the games they make you play,
(day after day.)
Moment after moment
after unplanned moment
you grow younger
until one day
you will be an infant,
& then
you will be
wailing & wishing
you could grow older
& make it all up to me.

8. The Deep
[This is my exam revision, so rate at your freedom, all help is welcome!] Carter Burton and his father Issac have headed out to fish, but they never thought that they would land anything truly epic. But today, Carter gets a lucky break...
The deep chill of Walker Lake in Artic Alaska froze my bones as we got out the Hummer and collected our fishing gear from inside the boot. I knew it was cold enough to potentially freeze my boots to the floor, but my dad Isaac was insistant. We were going to go onto Walker Lake and catch the sea monster that lay beneath the two-foot deep ice. Personally, it sounded like complete balderdash, a plot devised by the Inupiat inhabitants of the land to ward off outsiders. Either my father was completely mad, or he honestly believed the myths. But he seemed confident that he would have a truly enormous fish by the time he left here. He strode off in the direction of the lake, head high, supremely confident, while I followed, head low, nearly embarrassed at my father's brash approach to fishing. The snow crunched and crackled under my feet, like I was standing on lit fireworks. It certainly felt like that inside me.
My father stood out like a sore thumb in the calming white of the surroundings. His massive puffy North Face jacket made him look like the Bibendium, but viewed through a kaleidoscope. His hair was neat and evenly shaved, like it had always been since he was a Marine, and he had the lightest hint of a beard growing through. He was entirely normal, but he was a huge fishing fan. This was his only time away from duty in Afghanistan, and he was going fishing almost every weekend. However, I wasn't an outdoor sort of person. Most of the time, I would sit and play Grand Theft Auto IV and my dad would normally leave me alone and take Keira, my older sister, with him instead, seeing that she was minorally more interested in fishing that I was, and there was several reasons for that. For one, she wouldn't encounter the problem of her glasses steaming up, because she didn't have any. However, I did, so every so often, I would have to stop and clean my lenses out.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity trudging through a fridge-freezer, we arrived at the site and, lo and behold, it was completely the same as everywhere else; an endless expanse of white. I was getting tired of the monochromatic nature of Alaska, but my father Isaac kept reassuring me we were going to recieve our place in the history books today. Somehow, I doubted that, but regardless he began to scope out a suitable spot to cast a line. He settled on an unassuming spot near the edge and, suddenly, stomped the ice. He raised his foot and kept stamping away at the ice like a blunt jackhammer, attempting to create a hole. Eventually, he lost his patience and recruited the aid of a passing local who was better prepared than us, with a drill that looked like it could drill a hole into solid iron. He managed to carve straight into the ice, much to my father's anger, and we cast our lines and took a seat by the snowy bank.
My line bobbed on the water in an almost mocking matter, like it was telling me I was going to get nowt today. Meanwhile, my father was on prodigial form, reeling in fish after fish after fish. He had a beatific grin on his face as he reeled in pike like it was his God-given right to do so. It almost depressed me as my bob floated on the water, forever still. My father had already filled his somewhat large bucket to the brim with squirming fish, and he patted me on the shoulder, as if it was some sort of consolidation for sucking so badly at fishing in comparison to him. He ambled off back to the Hummer to put his fish in the boot, while I sat by the bank, utterly dejected by my failure.
In the distance, I could see a silhouette of a fish-like being in the distance. It was monolithic, easily dwarfing anything my father had caught, and was unbelievably fast, whizzing back and forth beneath the surface. I gazed at it, fixated by its elegant movements. Then, in an instant, it charged in my general direction. The creature, which I had by now dubbed "The Leviathan", munched at my line and pulled it hard, almost sending me rocketing into the lake. I struggled for traction on the icy lake surface, but it seemed to run out of stamina almost instantly, and I shot backwards onto the bank, the fish landing square in front of me. Gasping for breath, and sweat rolling down my cheeks, I screamed out in victory. I had caught the legend. The Leviathan was mine.
My dad dawdled back to collect me, and when he saw what I had caught, he was in for one massive shock. His eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw his son, a scrawny little nineteen year old nerd, holding a fish so large, it dwarfed him. He was lost for words, other than a mumbled "Carter... holy heck...", and I stood, full of pride, as he whipped out his camera and took a photo of a momentous moment in his son's life. He relinquished the Leviathan from me, and we carried it back to the Hummer, my father almost bursting into tears of joy. His son had caught the lake monster of Walker Lake. The Inupiat said it couldn't be done. They had just been proven wrong.

The United Nations has pronounced in a latest news that adult to 70 Daesh fighters have come into Afghanistan from Iraq and Syria to benefit a foothold in a war-weary country.
The newly-emerged nonconformist organisation is recruiting members in 25 of Afghanistan's sum 34 provinces, a news pronounced Friday.
Daesh – that has seized vast cities in Iraq and Syria – is gaining a flourishing series of supporters in Afghanistan to quarrel a Taliban and take control from them, according to a report.
The news by UN's al-Qaeda monitoring organisation settled that according to Afghan confidence forces, about 10 percent of a Taliban rebellion is Daesh sympathizers.
"The series of groups and people who are plainly dogmatic possibly faithfulness to or magnetism with ISIL [Daesh] continues to grow in a series of provinces in Afghanistan," pronounced a report.
Taliban's ex-supreme personality Mullah Omar's confidant Abdul Raouf Khadem, who visited Iraq in 2014, has shaped his possess organisation in Helmand and Farah provinces, according to a report.
He is allegedly recruiting supporters by profitable out a vast volume of money.
Militants from Pakistan and Uzbekistan, who have fled their country, have come underneath Daesh ensign and have rebranded themselves in new months, a news added.
Furthermore, a news pronounced a Afghan confidence authorities do not cruise a fast presentation of Daesh as an "immediate increasing threat."
However it combined a Afghan officials are gripping an eye on a flourishing presentation of Daesh as a "potential new threat."
The Afghan analysts, meanwhile, reject a participation of Daesh in Afghanistan, desiring that they are Taliban and other unfamiliar militants who are rebranding themselves to emanate some-more panic in a society.
"I consider there is not such a thing by a name of Daesh in Afghanistan. This is partial of Pakistan's substitute war. And this information has also been given to a universe by this country," pronounced Nasrullah Stanekzai, a University professor.
Daesh participation has been extremely sighted in Afghanistan, quite in eastern Nangarhar range – where a group's personality for a segment Hafiz Saeed and his several commanders were killed a few months ago in atmosphere strikes.

Elders has announced a round of restructuring of its rural division after striking a deal with financiers to allow it to reposition itself as a purely agricultural concern.
Now the company has started the process of closing branches and letting staff go.
Two branches in western NSW have been confirmed as due for closure within weeks, and Elders group general manager David Goodfellow has confirmed that eight other branches are slated for closure across Australia as part of the restructure.
Mr Goodfellow says the action is being taken to ensure that Elders remains strong and can continue to service its rural clients.
He expects clients of Elders from Bourke and Brewarrina will take their business to Elders in Dubbo, some 370 kilometres away.
Deputy mayor of the Brewarrina Shire Robert Wason is a grazier and an Elders client. He says Elders is naive if it thinks it will keep those accounts.
"It's just like when the National Bank closed here; they thought they'd keep our business as well, but people voted with their feet.
"I cannot understand why they are closing Brewarrina.
"It may not be their biggest branch, but it doesn't lose money and they've made good money out here over the years."
Mr Wason says the announcement has come at the worst possible time, as Brewarrina struggles with continuing drought conditions, resulting in economic hardship in the community.
"We don't need to lose another business at this time."
Elders has also announced that it expects to lay off up to 150 staff in this process, and chief executive Malcolm Jackman has not ruled out the possibility of a hostile takeover in coming months.

Unformatted text preview: 1 Spring, 2013 Name: (Please do not write your id number!) COP 4020 Programming Languages I Test on Haskell and Functional Programming Special Directions for this Test This test has 7 questions and pages numbered 1 through 8. This test is open book and notes, but no electronics. If you need more space, use the back of a page. Note when you do that on the front. Before you begin, please take a moment to look over the entire test so that you can budget your time. Clarity is important; if your programs are sloppy and hard to read, you may lose some points. Correct syntax also makes a difference for programming questions. Take special care with indentation and capitalization in Haskell. When you write Haskell code on this test, you may use anything we have mentioned in class that is built-in to Haskell. But unless specifically directed, you should not use imperative features (such as the IO type). You are encouraged to define functions not specifically asked for if they are useful to your programming; however, if they are not in the standard Haskell Prelude, then you must write them into your test. (That is, your code may not import modules other than the Prelude.) Hints If you use functions like filter , map , and foldr whenever possible, then you will have to write less code on the test, which will mean fewer chances for making mistakes and will leave you more time to be careful. The problem will note explicitly if you are prohibited from using such functions, but by default you can. In the follow the grammar problems the examples may be very extensive and take a long time to read if you read every detail. But the basic idea of the recursion is usually clear from the description, simple examples, and the follow the grammar idea of recursing everywhere possible. So look to the examples to confirm your understanding and dont spend too much time reading examples after you understand the problem.

(10 points) [UseModels] In Haskell, write the function: squareEvens :: [ Integer ] -> [ Integer ] that takes a list of Integers, lst , and returns a list of Integers that is just like lst , except that each even element of lst is replaced by the square of that element.

Dirk, Cleo, Shilpa, Ian and Jo face the public vote and two of them will be evicted during the live Channel Four shows on Friday, at 8.30pm and 10.30pm.
But it is former housemate Jade Goody, evicted last Friday, who continues to dominate the headlines.
The 25 year old - who was accused of racist bullying aimed at Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty during her stay in the house - announced yesterday she was to tour India.
Talking on Five's The Wright Stuff Goody said she did not realise calling Shetty "Shilpa Poppadom" would be deemed racist.
She said: "I'm thinking about going over there because I've been invited over there. I don't know who by but they are high-up people.
"To some people I know, saying 'coloured' is OK. So I didn't think 'poppadom' was a racist thing to say."
The public reaction to her had been positive, Goody claimed. But she admitted her home had been vandalised as a result of the Celebrity Big Brother race row.
The shamed star said windows at her house in Ongar, Essex, were smashed. Neither she nor her two children were home at the time.
Yesterday former housemate and film director Ken Russell called Jade and her allies on the show Danielle Lloyd and Jo O'Meara "guttersnipes".
Russell, 79, was in Wales addressing a meeting of Asian film directors at the Welsh Assembly. The meeting was to promote Wales as a location for Bollywood movies.
Asked if he thought the way Shetty, 31, was bullied in the house was racially motivated, he told BBC Wales: "Yes, I've studied the programme and there's no doubt about it, Jade led the other two girls - who were just rather pretty, mindless ladies and, until she came in, doing no harm - into absolute bullies, like herself.
"And their language is just absolutely, well, they are just guttersnipes. I don't think Shilpa was expecting such treatment. I must say she stood up well to it. I hope she wins."Reuse content

Cherry's October 2014 Update
First of all I would like to apologise for the lack of communication through this website over the last 10 months. On 8th December 2013, I lost my husband, Perry Harris, to a massive heart attack and it has taken me some time to reach a point where I can continue with the Trust and think about what happens next. Perry was my rock and always there to lend an ear, a shoulder or a hand and I miss him dearly.
All these terrible events in my life have not only taken their toll on me and the family, but have also made me think long and hard about how to move the trust forward and stay true to her memory. The death of my husband Perry made me think long and hard about what we can, practically achieve.
It really does not look like we have a realistic chance of raising enough funds to create an entire woodland ourselves. For this reason, I have been thinking how to move forward with the trust without betraying our original plans and thoughts.
I have discovered that Milton Keynes has at least two community orchards, one of which has already agreed to allow us to plant one or two fruit trees and even possibly add a bench. If I can find more community orchards in the area (or within a few miles of Milton Keynes), I propose to use the funds that have been raised here to add to these orchards and thus enhance the idea of local people gathering local fruit, just as Suki did. It seems to me that this is even more of a tribute to Suki than just planting a woodland would be as it is about food for free, home crafts and nature all in one.
I also intend to contact the Parks Trust and ask if they have any intentions of planting any fruit trees on new estates in the near future. If so, some of the money we have raised could go towards this.
Although this is not exactly what the trust first set out to do, I am sure that all the people who donated to it will understand the reason for this slight change of direction. If you read this and have any further thoughts please get in touch.
Suki loved the diversity of fruit that was available and made jams and chutneys from what she was able to glean for free from hedgerows. She would, I am sure, appreciate this change of direction plus she can be remembered all over Milton Keynes and not just in one place.
Cherry Harris 19-10-2014
About Suki & the Trust
Suki was an inspiration to others as, through her web presence she offered help and support to many, many e-friends.
As her parents we were stunned at how many people's lives she touched and how many friends she had made in the world through her generosity.
We asked those friends if they could think of a fitting tribute to celebrate her life and what she wanted for herself, others and the world itself... and from those conversations we came up with this idea... to create woodland in her memory.
The woodland not only has to put the needs of the natural world first, but also ensure that it maximises recycling and good use of resources.
Moreover, it must be accessible to everyone, particularly those with mobility problems that she understood all too well from personal experience.
As well as being accessible Suki would have loved it to have plenty of fruiting trees that ANYONE will be welcome to pick from. So we intend to combine the natural world with free food and plant plenty of native fruit and nut trees and ensure there are areas where bramble will grow and make sure there are suitable areas for native edible fungi.
We hope this tribute will inspire others and we hope readers of this website will feel able to contribute to our modest fund so we can buy a small piece of land and create that woodland for her and you...

Fight Club
By The Trade
For the last two years, The Trade has been gradually building up their fan base with a series of tours all over the UK. Their first single 'Fight Club' is the perfect example of how The Trade are diamonds in the rough just waiting to dazzle the UK. It is a brilliant choice for a first single; edgy, fresh and performed with almost swaggering confidence.
Ross Milne's wonderful gravelly style of vocals launch the song to a gentle start before slamming into a speedy and anthemic melody that would definitely get the crowds going at a live show. The chorus has an absolutely killer bass line, catchy hook and fists will be punched into the air throughout.
One thing that strikes me is it is very hard to pigeon-hole this group. If we took Flea from R.H.C.P, Dave Grohl from The Foo Fighters and Alex Turner from Arctic Monkeys and asked them to create a song together, then 'Fight Club' is a fair approximation of what the result would be. The entire track is a combination of different styles all cleverly incorporated into four minutes of gutsy and mould-breaking indie rock with a twist.
The Trade have already sold over two thousand copies of their demo album, and with their new album 'Lie In The Dark' due for release this June, this interesting quad could be the new kids on the block who set summer 2010 on fire!

My name says it all and as the saying goes "Bad boys ain't no good and good boys ain't no fun!" so if you're a bad boy then I'd definately love to hear from you! I've been taking anything goes phonesex calls here on NF since 2010 and I don't plan on slowing down anytime soon. Not like most operators I won't flood you with tons of ppv images and payment request, with me it's strictly phonesex. Phonesex has always and forever will be my passion and you'll find out why too once you give me a call! So grab your favorite lube, maybe put on some porn and give me a call....let's cum together baby!!!
