One place each left for Chicago and Venice workshops…
New workshop video: How To See, Ep.3: Penang now available!
It's been a little while in the making, but we're pleased to announce that How To See, Episode 3: Penang is now available!
The Havana Masterclass report
I'm going to break from tradition a bit – rather than me show you a whole bunch of photographs of my students photographing, I think it would be better to let the results speak for themselves: instead, most of my students have graciously agreed to share a few of their images and thoughts from the recent Havana Masterclass. It should give you a fairly good idea of exactly what we do during a Masterclass…
One place open for Making Outstanding Images London, 16-18 July
Due to scheduling conflicts of one of the participants, I've just had a place open up for the Making Outstanding Images Workshop in London, from 16-18 July. If you're interested, please send me an email. More details are below the jump, and selected testimonials from previous workshops are at the bottom of this post. Thanks! MT
Announcing H2 2014 Workshops and masterclasses – now open for booking!
It's time to announce the results from the workshop poll a few weeks ago. I won't be precisely following the city rankings because of some other considerations – logistics mainly – but I will be offering workshops and masterclasses in three locations for the second half of 2014: San Francisco, Chicago, USA and Venice, Italy. The dates were chosen based on a couple of criteria: firstly, interesting weather – fall in the USA, and atmospheric winter in Venice – and participant preferences.
Read on for more details, and to reserve a place.
Poll: H2 2014 workshop locations: where would you like me to go?
Following on from the previous report from the Melbourne Making Outstanding Images workshop and in the interests of determining which locations I should go to in the second half of 2014 – planning begins now – here's a poll to get your input. Also feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments.
Please note:
- Please only answer if you intend to attend
- Making Outstanding Images workshops are three days long, and follow this syllabus (Melbourne and London). They are aimed at all photographers of all levels and cover the core toolkit you need to make the images you want.
- Masterclass are five days long, and follow this syllabus. They are aimed at intermediate/ advanced photographers who want to take their photography further, develop style and want an intensive feedback cycle to hone their vision. The aim is beyond just making pictures: it's to turn you into a serious photographer.
Thanks in advance! MT
Workshop report – Making Outstanding Images, Melbourne
Melbourne threw one enormous challenge at us: the weather. Those who live there weren't surprised, but personally not having lived there for the better part of 20 years, I forgot just how indecisive and rapidly changeable it could be. If the days start off clear and bright, they landed up stormy. If they started off with rain, by the time 4pm rolled around, you wished you were wearing shorts and a t-shirt because it might be 30 degrees in the sun. Though it provided considerable sartorial confusion, it did also allow a wide variety of shooting conditions to be experienced – everything from what to do when there's no light, to how to handle extremes of contrast when your camera can't hold everything.
Coming soon: Making Outstanding Images Episodes 4&5: Exploring Style. Last call for HTS2/ Street 1 bundle
I'm pleased to announce the final two videos in the Making Outstanding Images workshop series are very nearly complete.
Style is a very complex subject that extends from the point of capture through post processing and eventually, output. We examine what style is; break it down into constituent quantitative components; look at four styles in detail, shoot live examples on location in Penang, Malaysia and then bring the whole thing back to the studio to complete the post processing. It's more than six hours of video in total, spread over two episodes (you can buy the style portion and the post processing portions separately) and four parts. It is easily the most comprehensive, time consuming and extensive production we've done, so advance warning is necessary: it will cost a little bit more than the previous videos, but you get what you pay for :)
Both videos – Episodes 4 and 5 – will be available very soon from the online store.
This will also be the last few days to buy the Making Outstanding Images Ep. 2&3 bundle, and the How To See Ep2.: Tokyo & Street Photography 1 bundle at the special launch prices. Those are also available from the online store right now :)
Finally, some of you may have noticed we've also taken this opportunity to give the store UI a little refresh – the whole thing should be much easier to navigate now, and you can also see which videos we have in the works.
Thanks again for your support! MT
Two places now available for the Email School…
Gratuitous advertising image: learn how to compose like this, consistently.
A couple of my students have just graduated from my Email School of Photography, which means there are two slots that have just opened up. Details continue after the jump. The current student and alumni pool is 150+ strong; additional testimonials on my teaching can be found at the bottom of this page. First come first served, so if please send me an email if you're interested. Thanks! MT
One place left each for Melbourne workshop and Havana masterclass
From Making Outstanding Images Amsterdam 2013
Just a gentle reminder – I have one place left each for the Melbourne (27-29 March) Making Outstanding Images workshop, and the Havana, Cuba Masterclass (28 April-3 May). London Making Outstanding Images (16-18 July) is full, but I am taking standbys as there are almost always reshufflings due to people's work schedules…thanks! Please click on the links to the individual announcements for more info, or please send me an email to book. MT

Kikkerland Moire Coaster in Black/White
About the Designer
David Jost United States
A graduate of Pratt Institute, Brooklyn NY in 1979, David moved to California in 1980 where he continued to build kinetic sculptures that combined artistic sensitivity, mechanical aptitude, and technical know-how. Working for a variety of toy companies in the 1990s, David began to extend his sculptural notions to inventive toys and games creating a series of Glow in the Dark products: 'Glow String', 'Charger Chamber' and 'Glow Stickables,' as well as a series of science activity kits: 'Floating Motor,' 'Fizz Factory' and 'MagnoScope'. David's product and sculptural designs incorporate playful combinations of nature and physics. 'Solar Wheel' and 'Solar Spinner' combine elements of sunlight and color, with solar cell technology and the simple physics of motion and refraction to create a dazzling, animated visual display. An unrepentant inventor, David collects mechanical parts, sketches concepts and builds prototypes at his home in Berkeley, California.

The Danger of Jesus as a Wise Guy
by J Warner Wallace
I've met my share of "wise guys". If you're also a detective or police officer, I bet you've met a few as well. From a law enforcement perspective, nobody wants to be called a "wise guy"; it's a title we typically think of in a negative way (especially when considered in the context of organized crime). "Wise guys" are usually up to no good, and police officers often have to put these kinds of folks in jail for one reason or another. But it's one thing to be a "wise guy" and another to be a wise guy. As an atheist, I was a fan of wisdom, and I often read the writings of wise teachers to gain their insight and knowledge. I was also happy to learn from ancient wise teachers. Few of us would deny the wisdom of Buddha, Confucius or Aristotle for example. At the age of thirty-five, I attended a church with my wife. I attended as an atheist, and was more than happy to do this once in a while, even though I had no interest in Christians or Christianity.
CLICK HERE for Amazon Kindle deals in Christian Apologetics: Over 100 titles from 99 cents to $5.99!
The pastor was a gifted speaker who described Jesus as a wise, ancient sage who taught revolutionary principles with application to anyone living in history. In fact, this pastor described Jesus as the wisest man who ever lived. While I was not interested in Jesus as God, I was willing to engage his teaching as an ancient sage. After all, our culture is built largely on the principles espoused by Jesus, and I was a detective who regularly enforced the laws and moral standards of our culture. I decided to read Jesus and consider His words alone. I rejected the miraculous elements in the Gospels, and focused instead on Jesus' moral teaching. There's a danger, however, in approaching Jesus in this way. Jesus taught many important moral principles, but He also taught a dangerous claim: He said He was God.
Jesus began many of his "lectures", sermons and "teachings" in a peculiar way, revealing Jesus' beliefs about Himself. Jesus often prefaced His teaching in a way separating Him from other prophets or important religious leaders. When Old Testament prophets made a proclamation, they would typically begin by saying, "Thus saith the Lord" or "the word of the Lord came to me" (from the King James Version) or, "This is what the Lord says" (in modern translations). They did this because they were speaking for God, not as God. But this is never how Jesus spoke when making similar proclamations. Jesus never started His teaching with this kind of divine qualification. Jesus typically began his proclamations with expressions such as, "verily, verily, I say to you…" (from the King James Bible), or, "I tell you the truth…" (in modern translations). This repeated preface, as it is used by Jesus, is very different than the prefaces used by the Old Testament prophets. The prophets spoke for God, But Jesus clearly spoke as God…

Learning from mental illness
Edd Houck grew up playing baseball and football on the lawn of Southwestern Virginia Mental Health Institute.
At night, he saw people peeking out from barred windows in the hospital in the town of Marion.
Treatment of mental illness has come a long way since the 1960s, the former state senator said Thursday night at an event launching a new mental health service.
Recovery In Motion hosts support groups, classes and more in a spacious office at the Rappahannock Goodwill Industries' Community Resource Center in Spotsylvania County.
The effort grew out of a program called the Wellness Recovery Action Program. In that initiative, patients learn how to handle their mental illnesses in sessions led by people who have experienced their own emotional challenges. Program participants said it helped to learn from people who truly understand the struggles of mental illness.
A local group finished WRAP seven years ago and continued their own support group after the program ended, said Christy Escher, executive director of Recovery In Motion.
They decided to create an ongoing program that would address mental illness. Recovery In Motion offers programs for dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder, trauma, substance abuse and mental illnesses.
Recovery In Motion has held activities on Tuesday and Saturday evenings, but starting this week, the agency will be open Tuesday through Saturday.
The agency will offer support groups in English and Spanish, writing workshops, dance classes, book groups, meditation and more.
Houck praised the organization and its efforts to help people struggling with mental illness. He said that programs such as Recovery In Motion prove that in many ways, treatment for mental illness improved dramatically since his childhood, when the mental hospital in his hometown offered regimens that would be considered barbaric today.
Still, Houck said, there is a long way to go.
He noted that the Virginia General Assembly has been wrestling with providing enough beds in mental health facilities. Much of the current discussion in the state legislature was spurred by the suicide of state Sen. R. Creigh Deeds' son last fall.
Austin C. "Gus" Deeds, 24, attacked his father in their Bath County home and then killed himself, just 13 hours after being released from an emergency custody order mandating mental evaluation. Gus Deeds was released after a clinician was unable to find an available psychiatric bed.
Houck noted that many people with mental illness end up in jail instead of in a treatment facility.
He spoke of going to Chicago to receive an award from the National Alliance on Mental Illness while a family member with a mental illness was in the Rappahannock Regional Jail.
"Even though we enjoy the best of times with more community-based care, with more outreach services … it's also the worst of times because we haven't come up with a substantive answer," Houck said. "That's why this organization and others like it are so important."

And lots of bad news for the Fourth Estate.
We open with a fascinating report certain to make a reader more secure, from the Los Angeles Times:
Banking industry culture primes for cheating, study suggests
Is your banker honest? Not if you remind him of where he works, a new study suggests.
Employees of an international bank were more inclined to lie for financial gain if they were thinking about their jobs than if they were thinking about their home life, according to a study published online Wednesday in the journal Nature.
The conclusions imply that cheating propensity is embedded in the business culture of the banking industry, and not in the type of person who goes into banking.
"These are not generally dishonest people," said University of Chicago behavioral economist Alain Cohn, lead author of the study. "What our results suggest is that current norms in the banking industry tend to favor dishonesty and that the banks should initiate a change in norms."
Domestic insecurity from Al Jazeera America:
FBI sends in reinforcements ahead of Ferguson grand jury announcement
- FBI sends 100 agents to Missouri town that became flashpoint for racial tensions after policemen shot unarmed black teen
Police and protest organizers painstakingly laid the groundwork this weekend to avert street violence in Ferguson, Missouri, and the FBI sent in nearly 100 extra agents as a St. Louis-area grand jury was expected to soon announce its decision on whether to indict the white police officer who fatally shot unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in August.
In a possible sign that an announcement on the grand jury's decision is imminent, prosecutors told media organizations that they were making plans for a news conference to announce the outcome — but the date, time and location remained undetermined.
Protests on Friday night led to the arrest of three demonstrators as hundreds blocked traffic along South Florissant Road, the main thoroughfare through Ferguson where marchers and police have tangled regularly since the late-summer unrest over the Brown shooting.
Ancillary reinforcements, via Fusion:
Across the tracks from Ferguson, Clayton enlists private army to brace for trouble
The predominantly white residents of Clayton seem convinced that the protesters will take out their anger there, and are hurrying to insulate themselves from the threat with private security firms.
Asymmetric Solutions, a St. Louis-based security and intelligence company that is staffed by U.S. special-operations veterans, has been working with companies around the metropolitan area whose assets are valuable enough to justify the firm's steep rates. A project manager for the company, who asked not to be named, predicts that outside of Ferguson "most of the difficulty will occur in the Clayton area…the bastions of white wealth and privilege."
When the grand-jury decision comes down, the firm will deploy its operatives to probable flashpoints. "You'll never notice any of our people," he said. "We're not putting fighters out there—we're putting thinkers and managers out. Their ability to wage war effectively is simply one more tool in the toolbox."
From United Press International, war prolonged:
Obama signs secret order expanding U.S. role in Afghanistan
President Obama reportedly signed a classified order authorizing an expanded military mission in Afghanistan in 2015, allowing U.S. forces to carry out missions against the Taliban
President Obama quietly signed a classified executive order authorizing a more expansive role for U.S. troops in Afghanistan in 2015, ensuring American troops will be fighting in the country for at least one more year, The New York Times reported.
The order allows American troops to take a direct role in missions against militant groups that include the Taliban.
It's a broader mission than the president described in a May announcement, when he said the U.S. military would have no combat role in Afghanistan next year and the remaining 9,800 troops would be focusing on training Afghan forces and handling al-Qaida threats.
And a possible stimulus, via the New York Times:
Hour's Drive Outside Kabul, Taliban Reign
The explosion ripped through the floor of the Humvee, tearing a hole in the armored vehicle and injuring the district governor. The crack of Taliban gunfire followed.
Seeking cover, the Afghan police convoy sped behind a mud compound and unleashed a hail of bullets. Undeterred, the Taliban fighters edged closer. As bullets smacked around his head, an Afghan soldier in a white head scarf crouched behind a waist-high wall trading shots with the insurgents, a cigarette tucked in his lips.
"This is our daily life," said the police chief of Tagab district, a mostly Taliban-controlled patch of Kapisa Province about an hour from Kabul, as rounds struck the compound's edges, showering his men with dirt. "Everything is like this — you can see it with your own eyes."
In areas like this, it is the government that operates in the shadows, following the dictates of the Taliban in order to stay alive. Afghan soldiers in Tagab district will not leave their base except for one hour each day starting at 9 a.m., when the Taliban allow them to visit the bazaar as long as the soldiers remain unarmed.
From Deutsche Welle, terror talk:
Inside IS – The Structure of Terror | Quadriga
Program notes:
After beheading yet another western hostage, the Islamic State terrorist organization is now threatening direct attacks on the US and Britain. Documents that have recently come to light allow some insights into the group's structure, and reveal an extensive finance network and sophisticated logistics systems for weapons and supplies. Is IS more powerful than experts previously believed?

From the New York Times, hardly surprising:
Among Pakistan Militants, Signs of Affinity With ISIS
Across Pakistan, the black standard of the Islamic State has become seemingly ubiquitous.
From urban slums to Taliban strongholds, the militant group's logo and name have appeared in graffiti, posters and pamphlets. Last month, a cluster of militant commanders declared their allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-proclaimed caliph of the Islamic State.
Such is the influence of the Islamic State's steamroller success in Iraq and Syria that, even thousands of miles away, security officials and militant networks are having to reckon with the group, also known as ISIS or ISIL.
More Pakistani news from the New York Times:
Eavesdropping on Pakistani Official Led to Inquiry Into Former U.S. Diplomat
American investigators intercepted a conversation this year in which a Pakistani official suggested that his government was receiving American secrets from a prominent former State Department diplomat, officials said, setting off an espionage investigation that has stunned diplomatic circles here.
That conversation led to months of secret surveillance on the former diplomat, Robin L. Raphel, and an F.B.I. raid last month at her home, where agents discovered classified information, the officials said.
The investigation is an unexpected turn in a distinguished career that has spanned four decades. Ms. Raphel (pronounced RAY-full) rose to become one of the highest-ranking female diplomats and a fixture in foreign policy circles, serving as ambassador to Tunisia and as assistant secretary of state for South Asian affairs in the Clinton administration.
And from the New York Times once more, tortuous deliberations:
Senate Democrats Clash With White House on C.I.A. Torture Report
In a tense confrontation with President Obama's closest adviser on Thursday, a group of Senate Democrats accused the White House of trying to censor significant details in a voluminous report on the use of torture by the Central Intelligence Agency.
During a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill with Denis R. McDonough, the White House chief of staff, the senators said that the White House was siding with the C.I.A. and trying to thwart negotiations over the report's release. The negotiations have dragged on for months because of a dispute over the C.I.A.'s demand that pseudonyms of agency officers be deleted from the report.
The C.I.A., supported by the White House, has argued that even without using the real names of the officers, their identities could still be revealed.
According to several people in attendance, the meeting was civil, but neither side gave ground, and it ended without resolution. The Senate Intelligence Committee spent five years working on the 6,000-page report, which is said to provide grim details about the torture of detainees in C.I.A. prisons during the Bush administration, and describe a persistent effort by C.I.A. officials to mislead the White House and Congress about the efficacy of its interrogation techniques. The committee voted this year to declassify the report's executive summary, numbering several hundred pages, but the fight over redactions has delayed the release.
From IDG News Service, spooky business as usual:
NSA director: No changes in telephone record collection coming
The U.S. National Security Agency is planning no major changes in its domestic telephone records collection program after a bill to rein in those efforts failed in the Senate this week, the agency's director said.
The NSA will continue to collect U.S. telephone records in bulk, while operating under some restrictions President Barack Obama put on the program back in January, Admiral Michael Rogers, the NSA's director, said during a House of Representatives hearing on cybersecurity Thursday. The NSA would rather wait to see what specific changes to the program Congress will require before making major changes, he told the House Intelligence Committee.
The NSA had hoped to get direction from Congress in the short term, but the agency may have to re-evaluate the telephone records program "if we're unable to gain consensus in the window that we thought," Rogers said. "I don't have an answer to that in my own mind."
The Los Angeles Times covers Fourth Estate outrage in Old Blighty:
British journalists slam police surveillance in lawsuit
British freelance video journalist Jason Parkinson had set his camera on a tripod outside London's upscale Dorchester Hotel to film a protest against a group of delegates from an arms and defense trade show who were dining inside. He wore a red bandanna on his right wrist, a winter vest, a red-and-white striped shirt and a pair of blue jeans with a tear in the right knee.
The details of his attire are recorded in a 12-page police file Parkinson, 44, obtained through a freedom of information request which makes clear the extent to which British authorities have monitored him and other journalists as they carried out their work.
Britain's National Union of Journalists, along with Parkinson and five others who obtained their own police intelligence records, filed a lawsuit this week against London's Metropolitan Police and the British government. The action challenges police surveillance of journalists, including the retention of the information collected on a national database, as a violation of British law and the European Convention of Human Rights.
More Fourth Estate suppression from the Observer:
Media 'gagged over bid to report MP child sex cases'
- Security services accused of aiding Westminster paedophilia cover-up
The security services are facing questions over the cover-up of a Westminster paedophile ring as it emerged that files relating to official requests for media blackouts in the early 1980s were destroyed.
Two newspaper executives have told the Observer that their publications were issued with D-notices – warnings not to publish intelligence that might damage national security – when they sought to report on allegations of a powerful group of men engaging in child sex abuse in 1984. One executive said he had been accosted in his office by 15 uniformed and two non-uniformed police over a dossier on Westminster paedophiles passed to him by the former Labour cabinet minister Barbara Castle.
The other said that his newspaper had received a D-notice when a reporter sought to write about a police investigation into Elm Guest House, in southwest London, where a group of high-profile paedophiles was said to have operated and may have killed a child. Now it has emerged that these claims are impossible to verify or discount because the D-notice archives for that period "are not complete".
From PCWorld, Windows™ into a corporate soul, eliminating yet more jobs:
Microsoft turns to robotic security guards to watch for trouble
OK, so the robot apocalypse probably won't happen any time soon, but the new robot sentries guarding Microsoft's Silicon Valley campus seem like something straight out of a futuristic sci-fi movie.
According to ExtremeTech, each of the K5 security guard robots from robotics company Knightscope stands 5 feet tall and weighs 300 pounds, so you probably don't want to mess with one.
The K5 robots don't come with any weapons onboard—thankfully—but they use a suite of alarms, sirens, and cameras to monitor and patrol the grounds of Microsoft's campus. If one spots trouble, it'll either sound an alarm or dispatch a human security guard to its location.
From the Guardian, another European separatist movement:
European parliament set to call for break-up of Google in antitrust case
- Draft motion seeks to serve as solution to Google's dominance of search markets in Europe and is seen as drastic escalation of running antitrust case
The European parliament is reportedly poised to call for a break-up of Google in a drastic escalation of Europe's long-running antitrust case against the tech giant.
A draft motion seen by the Financial Times, and expected to be agreed next week, calls for the "unbundling [of] search engines from other commercial services" as a potential solution to Google's dominance of the search market in Europe.
The European Commission has been investigating concerns that Google has abused its dominant position in search since 2010 and the dispute has become increasingly bitter. In September the EU's incoming digital commissioner Günther Oettinger warned that any settlement with Google could "cement its strength in the market rather than diluting it".
After the jump, hackers busted, crime and the power of privilege, dronal decadence, a kidnapped Colombian general's release promised, Fourth Estate woes in Libya, terrorism leads to call for Nigerian school closures, a split in the Hong Occupy movement, a Fourth Estate prosecution, Chinese journalism woes in the Philippines, a major development in China Seas Game of Zones, China denigrates criticism of its military expansion, Washington calls for settlement of a Seoul/Tokyo insular spat, and yet another delay in settlement of that controversial Okinawa U.S. base relocation. . .

PITTSBURGH Alpha Natural Resources Inc. has closed a metallurgical coal surface mine in Raleigh County, W.Va., and has no plans to reopen it.
The Bee Tree Mine produced a high-volatile type-B coal and there is no market for it, a spokesman for the Abingdon, Va.-headquartered company said.
The closure is in addition to plans Alpha announced earlier to idle or reduce operations at 10 mines in Kentucky and West Virginia due to soft conditions in the metallurgical coal market (AMM, Feb. 7).

No, bactrim will only make it worse. Antibiotics are one of the reasons for yeast infections. Yeast likes to grow where its warm and moist. Taking antibiotics kills off the bacteria that keeps yeast controlled. Keeping areas dry helps preventing growth. Using anti fungals gets rid of it. There are many available over the counter and just ask your pharmacist for assistance.

Since 2007, Social Security has gone from running an $81 billion annual cash surplus to an estimated $58 billion deficit.
Yet despite that $139 billion swing toward red ink, Democrats insist that Social Security hasn't added a penny to the deficit and, therefore, should be off the table in fiscal cliff negotiations.
In reality, Social Security's deteriorating finances explain 15% of the $900 billion-plus increase in the overall budget deficit over the past five years.
Even more striking, Social Security's cash deficit will balloon to $155 billion by 2022, the Congressional Budget Office projects. That rise amounts to more than one-third of the overall deficit increase over the coming decade if current tax and spending policies stay in place.
IOU Accounting
So how can liberals argue that Social Security doesn't cause deficits? The $2.7 trillion Social Security trust fund doesn't hold any resources to help the government afford benefits. Instead, it represents a Treasury promise to cover any cash shortfall until the trust fund's special bonds, really government IOUs, are all spent.
That makes the retirement program's cash shortfall a problem for Treasury, but not Social Security itself, liberals can argue.
Yet either way, the impact on the government's bottom line is the same.
On its current path, Social Security's cash shortfall would raise public debt by 18% of GDP through 2032 — just before the trust fund is exhausted — an IBD analysis based on the 2012 Social Security Trustees report finds.
In 20 years, if Social Security is left unreformed, its cash deficit will hit 1.4% of GDP. On top of that, the extra interest due on the debt incurred by redeeming all of Social Security's trust fund bonds would amount to another 1% of GDP.
Bottom line: Social Security alone would increase the deficit by 2.4% of GDP, making it too big to ignore.
Because health care is by far the biggest driver of long-term budget deficits, there's no reason to think that the non-Social Security part of the budget will have money to spare to cover such a big Social Security deficit.
There also are important reasons to reform Social Security beyond fiscal prudence. When President Clinton put Social Security at the top of his agenda in 1998, he told Congress that reform wasn't just about saving money but also providing more support to lift low lifetime earners and elderly widows out of poverty. Such efforts have been stymied by political stalemate.
