Echocardiogram Update
Well we received the report back regarding the Echocardiogram. This report considers the ASD 'large' . However, an Echocardiogram was done at Children's when Caleb was there for three weeks and the head cardiologist thought the ASD was small and almost closed. Therefore, we are going to send the newer Echocardiogram to Children's to get that same doctor to look at it and compare the two studies. As it has been explained to us, most ASD's close. If not, a surgery can be done to close the ASD. The surgery is not considered open heart surgery as they go through a vein in the leg up to the heart to repair the hole. As soon as we know more I will give an update.

10/20/06 Update
Caleb went for his Echocardiogram on Wednesday. We will not get the results back for awhile. Caleb visited Children's yesterday to see his Orthopedic surgeon and the hips look good. He has to go back in three weeks to get his hips x-rayed and possibly get out of the harness!!!!
The picture shows how well Caleb's mouthpiece is working. Both sides of the palate are touching and his nostril is lifting up. He is such a cutie!!!! He loves bathtime, we wonder if it is becuase he gets out of that harness for a little bit.

Long needed updated
Here is the latest. Caleb was taken to the hospital about two months ago due to poor feeding. The last feeding he took before we took him to Children's ER was 1cc (about a syringe full). Brian and I thought he was having feeding issues due to his severe case of acid reflux however, they did some blood work and it came back with a very low calcium level and a very high phosphorus level. Due to that they admitted Caleb. The docs said we were lucky that we brought Caleb in when we did or he could have had a life-threatening seizure. After further testing they found out Caleb has a hypoparathyroid, which now is being controlled by a special formula (which is very expensive) and by daily doses of Calcium and Vitamin D. The Vitamin D helps his body absorb the calcium, but it can drive up the phosphorous levels. Therefore, they did daily blood draws while he was in the hospital and the first two weeks he was home. We know get blood draws every other week. The only concern is the phosphorous is still high and you have to watch for kidney stones. The low levels of Calcium can cause fussiness which may have contributed to his feeding issues along with his reflux.
While Caleb was in the hospital they decide to get as many of the docs that we were scheduled to see Caleb as an outpatient. We saw the cardiology, and they did an Echocardiogram on Caleb and good news, they think the hole is closing nicely and like many other babies he has a heart murmur. The cardiology at Children's though did not seem concerned. Our pediatrician has scheduled another Echo for tomorrow to make sure the murmur is okay. Another doctor that saw Caleb was the neurologist, they went ahead and did the MRI to check on the corpus callosum. The tried the first MRI without sedation, but Caleb was WIDE awake and that machine is very loud so they scheduled and MRI with anesthesia. They could not do a sedated MRI as Caleb does have the cleft lip and palate and he is considered a 'high risk' patient due to the airway. The MRI was completed and Brian and I were broadsided by what we found out. They are still debating on whether or not Caleb has a corpus callosum. Some think it isn't there and some think it is, but it is just thin due to water on the brain they found. He has a significant amount of water on the brain and enlarged ventricles. In addition, his cerebellum (the part of the brain that is responsible for your motor skills) is smaller than normal and is sitting low into the spine. Yes, that is a lot. But you would never know by looking at Caleb. He is our little fighter. They have scheduled another MRI for October 30th to check on the water. If the water has increased they will shunt him to help the spinal fluid drain. There are a lot of 'don't knows' when it comes to the brain issues. Is the cerebellum small due to the excessive amount of water? Is there extra water due to the small cerebellum? Is there a block where the spine meets the cerebellum. All of these will be checked as best as possible with future MRI's. In addition, there is some concern with the folds of the brain. One doc said 'they just don't look right'. The one neurologist made some comments to Brian and I that were so uncompassionate I do not even want to repeat them. Hopefully we will know more after the MRI on the 30th and I will let everyone know, as soon as I can, what we found out regarding that MRI. We have started working with in home therapist from Easter Seals to help Caleb developmentally. However, all the therapists have said that he is 'on target' right now with his milestones. Which is great news.
Genetics did do some further testing and all came back normal. They do believe that Caleb does have some sort of 'midline' (affects the middle of the body) syndrome. But that are not sure what it is. Brian and I do not think it is beneficial for Caleb to go through any further genetic testing at this time as it doesn't matter what he has, he is Caleb and that is all that matters.
Caleb did have a neck x-ray, CT scan, and a Cookie Swallow (modified Barium swallow) to make sure nothing else was contributing to his feeding issues. All came back okay. It was later deduced that his severe case of reflux was effecting his feeding. They are going to check his acid levels in his esophagous when he has his surgery on his lip in nose in January. They do believe his case of reflux is severe. He is on Prevacid, Zantac, and Reglin (helps his stomach empty into his bowel quicker so there is less to reflux.
Hips-GREAT NEWS He got a checkup three weeks ago and it looks like Caleb may get out of his harness, at least during the daytime, in three weeks. WE ARE VERY EXCITED. We hope this will help with the reflux also.
The surgery for his Cleft lip, nose, tubes in ears, and esophagial scope is scheduled for January 18th.
There was also some question as to if Caleb had a spleen an ultrasound was done last week and he does, phew!!!!
I will update this blog with more info tomorrow, as I am sure there is stuff I forgot and I will hopefully have the results of his Echocardiogram.
Thanks again to everyone for your thoughts and prayers.

8/17/06 Update
We went to Children's yesterday to get Caleb's mouthpiece and nosepiece adjusted, the palate and the nose seem to be molding nicely. The doctor's are really happy with the progress. In addition, while we were there they let us know that Caleb's chromosome test came back normal AND the test for the VCFS came back negative. This is all great news!!!! We are very excited. We will talk about the results in greater detail when we meet with the geneticist next month.
Tuesday, August 15, 2006
8/11/06 Update
- Orthopedics: The orthopedic surgeon did not feel Caleb's hips popping out of socket when he rotated them, very good sign. Therefore, Brian and I are allowed to remove the harness every couple days to give Caleb a bath. We go back in two weeks to check and see if the hips are still in socket. The doctor did tell us that they can just as easily slip out as they slip in. So we are keeping our fingers crossed.
- Craniofacial: More good news...the cleft of the palate continues to move and the cleft of the lips seems smaller. Caleb also got fitted for the nose piece that was added to the mouthpiece that will lift the nostril while at the same time press down on the higher side of the palate. In addition, Caleb is gaining weight nicely, the doctors don't seem as concerned anymore regarding his weight. He weighed 8lbs. 10ozs. at this last visit which means he gained 9 ounces in a week.
- Bloodwork/Genetics: Caleb's blood had to be taken again (inconclusive previous results) for chromosome testing and for VCFS. The chromosome testing is being done to see if something genetic caused all the issues (heart, cleft, brain, etc.). In addition VCFS, Velocardiofacial syndrome, also known as Sphrintzen syndrome, is the syndrome most commonly associated with cleft lip and palate. Aside from cleft palate, there are up to 184 other anomalies commonly associated with VCFS, including heart defects, unique facial characteristics (elongated face, almond-shaped eyes, small ears, wide nose), speech and feeding problems, middle ear infections, and learning difficulties. Not all anomalies are present in the child, nor is any one anomaly present in all cases. The features with which the child is born do not get progressively worse over time. The results of the bloodwork usually take 3-4 weeks. We will go over these results with genetics during our appointment with them.

8/7/06 Update
Caleb is responding well to story time. He is following voices and keeping his eyes open. Great signs in regards to his brain development.
8/7/06 Update
Picture - Caleb in his carseat ready to go to the Urologist and show them nothing is wrong.
Today we visited the Urologist at Children's. All seems good!!! Caleb will go through one more ultrasound to double check the ultrasound performed after birth at Allegheny Hospital.
8-1-06 Update
Pictures: Left - Caleb showing off his mouthpiece. Below - Caleb sleeping in the chair at the craniofacial office after getting his mouthpiece adjusted.
Well another update for the little one
We went to the Orthopedic Surgeon and one hip is in and one hip is in but popping out. The hip that is popping has the Orthopedic Surgeon somewhat concerned. Therefore, Caleb has to stay in his harness for another week 24/7. . . Needless to say those onesies get thrown out when he goes to his weekly checkup and gets a bath and a harness check. The hip will be checked again on 8/10 to see if it is any better. After the ultrasound we will see the orthopedic surgeon to get the results so I will submit a new post once we know anything.
Caleb also had his mouthpiece adjusted again (showing it off in the picture), the palate is moving nicely.
Caleb is already eating cereal to help his acid reflux. He is dealing with that well and not spitting up as much and gaining weight better.

First Update
Picture - Caleb with Dr. Thomas, the Dr. who delivered him.
The picture was taken when Caleb was about 3 weeks old as he
had to go through a bunch of 'checks' after he was born and
we couldn't take any pictures. Dr. Thomas is a wonderful doctor
and person.
Well all it's official Caleb is here. We welcomed him into the world on July
12, 2006, at 10:21 a.m. He weighed 7lbs 13oz and measured 19 inches long. What
a blessing he is!!!!
He has already proven to be a little fighter!!! We have a wonderful team of
doctors working with us at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh. He are some
1. They did another EKG on his heart once he was born and the hole in the
heart and the thickening of the septum has healed itself. He does however, have
another hole in his heart that was cannot be detected during the fetal
ultrasound, however the cardiologist is optimistic that it will close on it's
own, if not, it will not require surgery to be fixed. There are other methods
that can be done to heal this hole if needed. We will follow up on that in four
2. He did not require breathing assistance as it was discussed that it may be
a possibility. He has already been fitted with his mouthpiece to start molding
his hard palate into place. He has really picked up on his eating and has
gained back his birth weight. He should have a surgery somewhere around 3-6
months to fix his lip and nose and then his hard palate a couple months later
and finally his gum and jaw will be repaired later on in life.
3. We did find out after birth that he does have severe hip dysplasia that is
being treated at this time with a harness that he currently has to wear 24 hours
a day 7 days a week. However, we are optimistic that this Thursday the
orthopedic surgeon will show us how to take the harness off so we can bath Caleb
at least every other day. The hips have started to go back into socket which is
very good news based upon how severe the hip dysplasia is.
4. There was some concern at birth regarding Caleb's eyes however all is
okay. We will check up with the Opthomologist in a couple months.
5. Caleb did not pass his hearing test at birth, after further testing at
Children's they believe he has fluid in his ears and will require tubes, common
with babies with cleft lip and palate. The tubes will be put in his ears when
they do the surgery on his lip and nose.
6. They were somewhat concerned regarding his kidneys at birth, an ultrasound
was done and came back normal, we will meet with a Urologist for a followup at
7. As far as the Corpus Callosum, the part of the brain that is missing,
another MRI will be done on him to evaluate it again to see if it is a partial
agenisus or a complete agenisis. Nonetheless, Caleb has been responding well to
sights and sounds since birth, so we are very optimistic that the agenisus will
not effect Caleb.
There are some other visits we have with other specialists at Children's as
they want to fully check Caleb, but as you can tell he is doing great. Again, I
cannot thank everyone enough for your continued support, love, and prayers.
Thank you so much!! I will continue to keep everyone up to date on the
developments of his doctor's visits.

I like Arctic creatures, and this is certainly an interesting one. Odd for a carnivore to have the frame of a herbivore, I personally would have these as omnivores like brown bears. These could easily be used as creatures on an Alien planet.

A very odd creature - and I would have to say if the head gets hot enough to melt ice quickly, than it really is a magical creature - trying to obtain enough calories to do that would be prohibitive. This also helps do away the issue with all that heated air/steam in their tunnels.
That said, its an interesting critter - I do have a thing for arctic creatures in general.

The piece that stuck out for me was the description of metallurgy and mining as Dwarvethurgy. I like the idea that some basic technologies would have been perfected by other races before humans, and that as a result, their naming may be quite different. The word for Mining in common could be different.
Interesting to think about.

Anders als die Andern
Soundtrack for the silent film "Anders als die Andern" (Different from the Others) by Richard Oswald (1919). The soundtrack was presented live at Cacoyannis Foundation, at the 5th silent film festival on July 2014 in Athens. The music does not only strengthens the fragmented visual narrative of the original film but also ads a parallel musical narrative, which plays with the different levels of perception of aural informations.

My partner and I are thinking of booking a last minute honeymoon possibly on Bequia. We'd love any advice on whether or not this island would be good for a honeymoon. We're looking for nice beaches with clear water, not too crowded, decent places to eat, and a safe place to explore on our own. We've been looking at Bequia Beach Hotel and also Sweet Retreat Hotel - has anyone stayed at sweet retreat or heard anything about it? can't find any reviews.
Also, how bad are the mosquitos at the end of february and beginning of march?

Bequia for honeymoon?
My partner and I are thinking of booking a last minute honeymoon possibly on Bequia. We'd love any advice on whether or not this island would be good for a honeymoon. We're looking for nice beaches with clear water, not too crowded, decent places to eat, and a safe place to explore on our own. We've been looking at Bequia Beach Hotel and also Sweet Retreat Hotel - has anyone stayed at sweet retreat or heard anything about it? can't find any reviews.
Report Abuse
Bequia is a great island if you are seeking something small (only 7 Sq. miles in area) and somewhat off the beaten path. The main village is located around Admiralty Bay which is a popular spot for sailboaters. There's not a lot to do on the island so if you are a very active couple you may start to go "stir crazy" after a few days. On the other hand if you are looking to completely relax and "get away from it all" Bequia is the place to do it. The island is as safe as any in the Caribbean and there are several places where you can get decent meals.
The number of mosquitos you might encounter is not a function of time of year but rather recent/current weather conditions and/or local habitat. Mosquitos and their "cousins" no-see-ums are more prevalent after periods of prolonged rains and in dense rain forests or around salt ponds and standing water. They are more active at dusk especially along the beach where the vegetation meets the sand and during periods when there are little or no breezes.
You can lessen your chances of a "close encounter" with these little pests by avoiding the areas mentioned above and by refraining from the use of perfumes, colognes, after-shaves, scented body washes scented hairsprays and similar products as the sweet aromas act as an attractant.
Report Abuse
Thanks for the great mosquito advice. What are the beaches like? Do you have any experience with Bequia Beach Hotel or Sweet Retreat? We're really looking to just relax, swim in the ocean, and chill out so I'm sure we won't go too stir crazy!
Report Abuse
I only went to two beaches while I was there. Lower Bay had a few more people than Princess Margaret, both were very nice in my opinion. I went out by Bequia Beach Hotel but did not go to the beach just went to the restuarant. I was there during Easter Regatta and it was more crowded than usual. I enjoyed Bequia as it felt more like the Caribbean Islands I used to read about.
Report Abuse
My husband and I spent three days on Bequia 26-29 Dec and we stayed at the Sweet Retreat. This was our first time on Bequia and we loved it, both the island and the hotel. On the same trip we visited St Lucia, St Vincent and Puerto Rico and Bequia was by far our favorite.
Sweet Retreat was great, brand new, very small, only four rooms, and while we were there there was only one other guest, so it felt very relaxing and quiet. The view from the balcony and the main terrace makes you think you are living in a postcard. The beach is right in front of the hotel, about a 2 min walk, and is fantastic, white sand, clear warm water....Sweet Retreat is at the end of Lower Bay, there were rarely any people at 'our' end of the beach, felt very private.
Bequia is a great island, friendly people, great food and not overly expensive, compared to other islands, several excellent restaurants. We had no problems with the mosquitos but I did use the repellent however, just in case. If you are not looking for a lot of nightlife (although there is some), I'd say Bequia is the right choice, everything you'd want from a tropical island in the Caribbean.

The day after your Ideation session, your agency's Creative team will begin cataloging and sorting. You may have hundreds of ideas, however, there will be many duplicates. It's up to your Creative team to consolidate all the ideas before moving forward and, if you're a Rova customer, before inputting them into the software.
- The Creative team pulls the notecards off the wall and creates physical groupings of common themes (Thought Leadership, Sales Process, Brand, etc.).
- In an Excel document or Google Sheets, type in each tactic by theme. This is important because when you import the tactics into the Rova Software, it must be in an Excel file. The first tab should be the entire list of tactics. Try to keep the sentences as true as possible to the original card.
- The categories can be omitted from this step. They are no longer necessary.
- In the same Google Sheet or Excel document, create a second tab called "Refined Ideas". This is where you will start to refine the ideas into buckets and remove duplicates. You don't need all those tactics down the road.
- Combine duplicates into one tactic, with columns of the title and description. It's very important the columns are labeled this way as that is how it will be imported into our software. A screenshot from Rova is below.
- Refine the rest of the ideas into buckets or themes (i.e. how thought leadership comes to life within the organization or what the new website could do).
- At the same time, the Creative team is compiling and refining, the agency Support role will start to import the plan and measurements into Rova.
- Once the spreadsheet of refined tactics is ready, you'll import it into Rova and then the matching process begins.
- We recommend the Support role matches the tactics to measurements in Rova. This will let you know if every measurement has a tactic associated with it. If not, then the Creative team must ideate new tactics to address the missed measurements. The goal is to have at least one tactic to influence every measurement.
Now you're ready to prepare the recommended tactics to your clients and start selling!

Instituto Coreográfico 2014: Q&A with Dance Filmmaker Kendra BriscoPosted: June 13, 2014 Filed under: Behind-the-Scenes @ BH, Instituto Coreografico Leave a comment
Instituto Coreográfico, Ballet Hispanico's choreography lab for artists, is an innovative program for both burgeoning choreographers and emerging filmmakers. Our latest installment of the program welcomed filmmaker Kendra Brisco to BH. Kendra is a recent graduate of DeSales University, receiving a B.A. in both Dance and TV/Film. She has interned with the American Dance Festival and Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival where she worked closely with professional companies from all over the world documenting their work. We asked Kendra to reflect back on her two week residency with us and she shared some fascinating insight–read below!
You might be our first Instituto filmmaker who is also a dancer. When or how did you decide to pursue both dance and filmmaking, and what is it about the mix of the two that intrigues you?
At a young age I realized that I had two very strong passions. Once I realized this, doing something else never crossed my mind. Even though I was the first student at my school to pursue this double major, I was convinced that these two art forms were meant to be combined.
Being a dancer, I understand not only the body and how it moves, but I have a special sensitivity to movement and I am able to react to it. Because of my familiarity with the choreographic process, I can easily pull out the choreographer's main points and understand how they connect to the creation of the work.
When I film dancers, I feel myself dancing with them, and it is one of the best feelings in the world!
You've documented many dance rehearsals on film already–is there anything about this project with Miguel and Ballet Hispanico that stands out to you as being different?
What stood out to me the most was how open the dancers were to new exercises and new ways of thinking. I got to watch the gears turning in their heads and observe the external changes as well. They were constantly sharing insight into their internal experiences that added a whole new layer to the rehearsal process. Miguel's methods for drawing emotions out of the dancers had me captivated the entire time. I never wanted to leave the studio!
When I film dancers, I feel myself dancing with them, and it is one of the best feelings in the world!
What guides you when you edit these short videos?
When I edit, the most important thing to me is that the feeling you get from watching the video is the same feeling as actually being in the studio. I try to stay as true to reality as possible.
Can you share with us your favorite bit of insight you heard throughout the residency, whether it was from Miguel, the dancers, your mentor Gerrit, or anyone else?
What really stuck with me was Miguel's point about finding yourself and being yourself. So much of the time we are "acting" or "pretending," instead of just being. I found that to be true of life outside the studio as well, and I think anyone would benefit from searching for his or her true self. This was an inspiring process that has definitely made me think about the world a bit differently now.
Thanks for all you've done for us, Kendra! Watch Kendra's documentation of Instituto in the two videos below:

Instituto Coreográfico 2014: 10 Minutes with Miguel MancillasPosted: May 29, 2014 Filed under: Behind-the-Scenes @ BH, Education & Outreach, Instituto Coreografico Leave a comment
For the latest installment of Instituto Coreográfico, Ballet Hispanico's choreography lab for Latino artists, we welcome Mexico-based choreographer Miguel Mancillas to our studios to work with our dancers. We caught up with him recently for a quick chat on the experience, which will culminate tonight in a public showing. Here's what he had to say on this collaborative process:
How have you approached working with the Ballet Hispanico dancers?
I find it really interesting the way dancers believe in their skills and training and what they know or understand about their own body. For me it's really, really important to build communication with dancers so we can go farther together. It's hard to build on their movement or ask for their own movement without them having trust in you. I love to respect that because I believe that they are all artists, not just people who can move.
Is it a challenge that you're only spending 2 weeks with the dancers?
Not really, for me it's more like a laboratory work process and at the same time I'm just trying to know them as much as possible, and also to see what they think about my ideas. For example, what is an animalistic thing or an instinct? What does it mean to own your body, if you really think that you make decisions for your body, or is it your mind, or is it society? We were working in different approaches to that.
For them, it has been a real challenge in that way, but at the same time they know how to do a lot of things—they are really good dancers. Some of them enjoy much more to challenge themselves. But I think it's little things that I can say to them, like to be sure that they are are not lying to themselves, but not for me. To me, I would never know, but for them, they would know.
As a choreographer, what do you gain from a program like Instituto Coreográfico?
For me, I'm making them do things that I already do with my dancers, but I like to see where they feel more challenged and where they feel more fine, so they can take that movement and use it as their own. I make a lot of images in my mind and I work with that, but I also don't just like to have them try to do something that is already in mind, something that I've predicted–it's better to search together.
"I believe that they are all artists, not just people who can move."
How would you describe your style of your choreography?
It's really hard–I always say that each piece makes me be different. Sometimes I go really abstract, sometimes I go with storytelling. But, I have the same obsession: what makes us move? Sexuality, fears of being alone, and the vulnerabilities we have as a species. We are the weakest. We have a great brain but our body is really weak. And so, I feel like we build a lot of masks around that, and that is in all of my pieces.
Gracias, Miguel! We look forward to seeing your work!
Instituto Coreográfico 2014: Paula Lobo Visits the StudiosPosted: January 28, 2014 Filed under: Behind-the-Scenes @ BH, Instituto Coreografico | Tags: Paula Lobo, rosie herrera Leave a comment
If you're a follower of the BH Facebook page, then you've probably seen one if not several gorgeous stage and rehearsal photos taken by Paula Lobo. Though we use many photographers throughout the season to shoot our dancers, Paula keeps coming back for more and knows the dancers so well that she can capture perfectly even the most subtle emotive moments in a work. She feels like part of the BH family! Today, Paula dropped by our studios to watch a run of Rosie Herrera's work-in-progress as part of Instituto Coreográfico. We can't wait to see the rehearsal shots she took, but until then, here are some glimpses of the photographer in action.

MINNEAPOLIS — Full-year earnings per share for General Mills' fiscal 2009 exceeded the company's guidance of $3.87 to $3.89 due to good operating performance and a lower fourth-quarter tax rate. The company's fiscal year ended on May 31, and detailed results are scheduled to be reported on July 1.
The company said its U.S. Retail business segment had strong growth in fiscal 2009 with reported net sales growing 10% and volume increasing 4% during the first nine months.
Foreign currency exchange is expected to have a negative impact on the International segment in 2009 and 2010, the company said.
General Mills said it is focusing on its higher-margin, branded product lines and its most attractive food service customer channels in the Bakeries and Foodservice segment. The company also divested food service businesses generating annual net sales of about $150 million during the past year. The company said the divestitures, the weak operating environment and an expectation of lower bakery flour pricing due to lower commodity costs will result in 2010 reported net sales for the segment to be below 2009 levels.

Print has been a staple of advertising since the beginning, but with the widespread adoption of the Internet and social media, it's now the first to be cut from a marketing plan to save costs. One of the main benefits that online advertising currently provides over print is interactivity with an audience.
Many advertising professionals suggest that print is dead, but according to Forbes, print is a "powerful and necessary component of a modern ad campaign". Print's advantages include tangibility, credibility, branding, target marketing and, in some instances, engagement.
Check out this Forbes article for their rationale.
Forbes suggests using QR codes to help bridge the gap between print and web. Although a great tool, QR codes need to be used with caution, as they take the user away from your ad. Below are a few examples of how you can reap the benefits of print, while harnessing some of the valuable interactivity of the web.

Just eight months ago, the lovely Kristine Lee (Senior Account Manager) had her last day before taking her maternity term. This time, it is one of our beloved designers who is pregnant—Aldea Wood (or better known as @aldywood on Twitter).
Aldea describes herself as a designer whose interests range from "aardvarks to zócalos" and enjoys drawing upon outside experience to bring inspiration to her work. She has done some phenominal art and design work, and I encourage you to poke around her personal sites. (more…)

Juniper Park is based in Toronto. It has a number of major clients, like Quaker Foods, Virgin Mobile Canada, and Frito-Lay. It has won a bucket of accolades from the Effie Awards, Canadian Newspaper Association's Extra Awards, the Canadian Marketing Association Awards, Communication Arts and Applied Arts, and has talent lined up in the lobby scratching their heads trying to figure out what it takes to get an interview.
Derek and Laurent, two young Joes from Toronto, went on a mission to get a job at Juniper. They pondered the question, what does it take to get a job at an award-winning agency like Juniper Park?
One Saturday afternoon, these two legends set up camp in the lobby of Juniper Park and created a video in hopes to win a seat at the agency. Their video is unscripted, low-budget, and very clever. Made with only a black marker, white construction paper, and a video camera, this video is bound to leave you feeling warm, fuzzy and inspired. Their video is actually an intro to their site, which gives you a chance to warm up to them and see the awesome work they have done in the past.
They asked, "How do you impress an agency on a shoe-string budget?" Well, let them show you here: http://willderekandlaurentgetajobatjuniperpark.com/

NASA Predicted July 11: My Eclipse began July 12… The excitement and anticipation leading up to starting my new job and meeting the new team came without disappointment. I was not the first to arrive, as Jenny was there with a warm welcome, equally as excited as I was. She later informed me it is apparently quite normal for her to be first in the office, as she likes to come in at what others consider to be ungodly hours between 6-7AM , or what I like to think of as 'prime sleeping time' .
Soon after, the door opened and one by one the Eclipse team started to arrive. Immediately I could tell this is a great group of people. It is early Monday morning and they are all enthusiastic and upbeat; an infectious energy to say the least. Although, I will admit Facebook provided me with a brief yet intimate look into the dynamic of this vibrant team prior to my arrival… To my surprise not one of them had a mustache nor were any of them bobble-head characters like the photo albums had suggested. But what I have discovered by the end of day two is that candy stashes are widely encouraged (more…)
