I saw an early cut of Prodigal Sons about 6 months ago and, while it needed more work, it's an utterly fascinating (very!) personal story. I hear Kim's put narration in so can't wait to see it again.
Yes, it's an incredible story with many twists and turns, and it will benefit from the input of DocuClub's smart and dedicated audience.

Hello again. As i said on my "introduce yourself" post, I'm available for composing original music for interesting documentaries.
Some of my work can be heard on my website at http://www.marioberlinguer.com.
I have a myspace page with some more music, and then another page on NextCat with a couple different things.
Best way to contact me is at "info" and then the @ and then "marioberlinguer.com" (without the " of course).
Thanks and keep up with the good work!
By the way, for those who don't know yet, The D-Word has a MySpace page as well.
And a group on Facebook ...
Help spread The D-Word!
Hmmm, the D-Word is a 34 year old male residing in New York New York. Who knew?
Your city, my age, and John's good karma.
We had to set these things, there was no way to hide them.
I am interested in advice on how to find right person (film maker) and fund a small documentary style effort and what might be interesting goals / benefits that makes it a win/win for company and film producer. Budget would likely be shoestring, but could be an interesting experience.
Example situation:
Say you have a big event every year like MacWorld (AppleWorld) or an auto show (but put on by only one company, not a tradeshow)... you show off your latest products, you launch 2 or 3 new things, and you show a vision of where your company is going (concept cars, or other physical immersive manifestations). You have to entice the media and your top customers to attend and you want to broadcast and create discussion around all 3 parts of this event experience...
I am exploring how a highly experiential event with similar attributes could leverage film/documentary storytelling in interesting, meaningful ways – meaningful to the company, its stakeholders, and the film maker...
Some nice to have goals for company might be:
+ capture people's reactions around new product innovation at large/major event in Eastern Europe (new product concepts around several themes, dramatic event experience in major city, new products being launched, other interesting products being demonstrated/show for sales in both business to business and business to consumer arena)
+ capture value design is adding to business
+ possible interviews with CEO/CMOs from top companies
+ many other areas that could be mutually interesting if discussed... but trying to understand if this might be interesting to a qualified independent film maker or high potential starting out
There could be two cuts... both would likely be very people-focused. But, one could capture essence of business value and the other could be all around creative/design side of things.

FREE Screening: Cynthia Wade's FREEHELD, The New School, April 11
The New School presents
The Sixth Annual Dorothy H. Hirshon Film Festival – Vision and Risk: The Films of Cynthia Wade
Date: April 11, 2008
7:00 p.m., with panel discussion and reception to follow
Tishman Auditorium
66 W. 12th Street, New York City
Free and Open to the Public
Screening and Discussion: FREEHELD, winner of the 2008 Academy Award for Documentary Short Subject
FREEHELD chronicles Detective Lieutenant Laurel Hester's struggle to transfer her pension to her domestic partner, Stacie Andree. With less than six months to live, Laurel refuses to back down when the elected officials of Ocean County, New Jersey, deny her request to leave her pension to her partner, an option granted only to heterosexual married couples. FREEHELD captures the media frenzy and passionate advocacy campaign spurred by Laurel's plight; it also tells the quieter, personal story of the deep love between Laurel and Stacie as they face the reality of losing each other, creating a powerful, nuanced study of a grassroots fight for justice.
Just received an opportunity for a talking-head intvw with a movie star that's very pertinent to my doc. It's in Miami Beach, this week, probably during business hours. Only about one hour of actual intvw, but then set-up and breakdown on top of the one hour.
If anyone fits this bill, is a DP with professional credits and his/her own camera (Sony DVCam preferred) and light kit, drop me a line at:
cultmovies [at] hotmail [dot] com
This is for an in-production feature-length doc that already has some interest from cable and has other movie-star intvws in the can.
Can anyone recommend a production fixer in Peshawar Pakistan.
Contact D-Word Members Cameron Hickey and Lauren Feeney. They shot close to the Afghan border in Pakistan. Maybe they can help?
The Utopia Film Festival, a community festival for which I have been serving as Program Director, is now accepting submissions. Would love to see any D-Worder submissions. No premiere requirements and we do accept films made within the past two years. Here's our blurb...
The Utopia Film Festival showcases short and feature-length works which entertain and enlighten audiences of all ages. Fiction, Documentaries, Animations, Music Videos, and Experimental Films are all welcome. This year's festival will take place from October 24-26, 2008 in Greenbelt, Maryland.
The Utopia Film Festival is an annual cinematic event, now in its fourth year. It reflects the utopian ideals of Greenbelt, Maryland – one of America's first planned communities. Located between the urban centers of Washington DC and Baltimore, Maryland, Greenbelt was designed and built under the Roosevelt Administration's New Deal Federal Works Program in the 1930s. It remains a vibrant community and its historic city center (where many of the festival events take place) has been designated a national historic district.
While we encourage all submissions, these are special strands which we have planned for 2008:
UTOPIAN VISIONS: Films which address themes of community building, promoting diversity, bettering social and economic conditions, or preserving the environment.
KID VIDS: Family-friendly animated or live-action works. Films produced by children and teenagers are especially encouraged.
HALLOWEEN SCREEN: Since our festival coincides with the week of Halloween, we welcome submissions of serious or spoofy horror films appropriate for the season.
Submit now to take advantage of the early bird discount rate on submission fees.
Early-Bird Deadline: April 25, 2008
Regular Deadline: June 13, 2008
Late Deadline: July 1, 2008

Hello! Does anyone know of any New York-based documentary film makers with internship opportunities? I am looking for some hands-on experience before i attend the Maine Media Workshop's four-week documentary film making course this summer (August). Thank you for any advice or suggestions you can share with me: firstname.lastname@example.com. Best regards, Cynthia
I just sent you an email, Cynthia. Your timing is good.
Subtitling job for a German speaker:
Someone wants to have his late father's video Holocaust testimony subtitled from German to English. The interview has already been transcribed and translated. Length is 1:43.
Having just worked with subtitles myself, I know that it works better when the subtitler speaks the native language. That's why I'm passing up this opportunity.
It would be easiest if the editor lives in the States, since the tapes are in NY, but an accomodation could probably be reached if this is not the case.
Please contact me if interested.
I am looking for a group to view my film. I am just finishing editing it. (I think, LOL) I did a private viewing a couple of weeks ago and made some adjustments and now I would like to screen it again. If anyone is in the Providence/Boston/Conn area and would provide a place to screen it and up to 10 or 15 people to critique it I would be greatly in your debt. (Basically I can go anyplace driving distance,any day, as long as I can make it back to work the next morning)
I am not offering money, just an opportunity to watch a film and network. Just a little background, This is my first film and I did not get any grants.
For more background on the film please go to my website at

We will need an HD camera package, sound, gaffer, etc..
Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you are interested.
Thank you!
Leah, go into search and perhaps track down member Shashwati. She could be back in Taiwan and may have contacts; she's been off for a while.
Actually, to find Shashwati you don't want to "go into search", Leah. You want to search the database. Click on the People link at the top of the page to get there.
I have a Sony ECM-44B Omni-Directional Lavalier Condenser Microphone for sale for $150. It was purchased from B & H last year and only used for a few weeks. It's in perfect condition, except for a small scuff on the cable which does not affect performance. I have the receipt and it's in its original packaging. Great mic and great deal! Includes mic/capsule, tie clip, windscreen and case. Pickup in LA or ship to rest of US (add shipping cost).
From B & H's website: The ECM-44B makes the exceptional quality of Sony's electret condenser microphones available for budget conscious productions, and a variety of sound reinforcement requirements, such as lectures and demonstrations. Measuring only 8.5 x 14.5mm, the ECM-44B reduces the visual distraction to the audience. The ECM-44B can be depended upon for clean, bright, yet natural reproduction. To maintain its low cost, this microphone operates on a single AA (does not accept phantom power) battery for over 5000 hours of service.
sorry leah, doug's right. I did check to see you're a member though, because you can access the database only if so (right DB?).
We lost our intern to illness and her backed up college work. So we're looking for another. Come in a couple of days a week on a regular and reliable basis. Help on current projects. Email email@example.com

We are looking for an executive producer for the documentary project The Navajo Riders.
The Navajo Riders covers the Navajo Nation Council Horseback Ride in which council delegates ride to different parts of the Navajo Nation to learn about the needs of the Navajo people at townhall meetings, recreating an old tradition. The seven day ride begins at the base of Navajo Mountain, goes through the Monument Valley, and ends in Window Rock, the capital of the Navajo Nation. We follow the NaaTsis Aan Riders throughout this exciting 510-mile journey through three states passing the Navajo volcanic fields, a meteor crash site, and a glacial lake. Along the way suffering temperatures above a hundred degrees, we encounter wild mustangs and ancient Anazasi structures built thousands of years ago. During this week-long event we explore the unique traditions of the Navajo culture.
The Navajo Riders will be submitted to the Native American category for the Sundance Film Festival. Navajo producer, director, and writers are attached to the documentary project.
We have been doing the Navajo Council ride for the past eight years. For the past three years, I have been filming the ride. With these images, I created a trailer, The Navajo Riders 2005, to present the idea for this documentary. To see the trailer please go to www.joshuedeltoro.com

UnionDocs is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit documentary arts collaborative and presentation space. Currently, our primary program is The Documentary Bodega Series, featuring new and challenging documentary film and audio works every Sunday evening in our Brooklyn screening room. The series is produced by the Resident Curators of UDR, the UnionDocs Residency Program for Documentary & Media Studies. We also produce a podcast and blog, featuring short media pieces inspired by discussions at the Documentary Bodega and beyond.
UnionDocs is looking for a new resident starting in June. The UnionDocs Residency (UDR) combines an excellent and cooperative living situation with an opportunity for immersion in independent cultural production. Six carefully selected people live together in a historic building at a great location and collaborate to produce a festival-quality documentary series in the first floor screening room.
322 Union is a great place to live. It has a lot of shared resources and a lot of opportunity for fun while also having adequate privacy and a comfort (not always found in NYC communal living). There are three floors, a basement, a grassy backyard with a grill and deck, a big second story porch, and skyline views from the roof. The location is close to excellent transportation making most cool spots in Manhattan and Brooklyn within a short subway ride.
The first floor is a commercial space run by the program director. It includes the screening room, 2 studios for working media artists, the UnionDocs director's office, and access to the basement which has been sound-proofed for music rehearsal and audio recording. Resources on the first floor are readily available to UD Residents outside of the schedule for the Documentary Bodega Series.
On the floors above, there are two nicely-sized three bedroom apartments with a living room, kitchen and bath. Both have wood floors, get lots of light, and were recently renovated. Bedrooms can be locked, but common spaces are shared by the six residents. One is better for cooking large meals and socializing and the other more appropriate for reading, working, and watching films. The common spaces are furnished, so residents need only bring the contents of their bedroom. The building has high-speed internet, a VOIP phone, and washer and dryer.
About $875/month plus deposit.
Please check out our website for more information about UnionDocs and UDR and fill out an application if you are interested:

OPERATION FILMMAKER premiering at IFC Center in New York!
Starts June 4th and runs until June 17th.
In the wake of Operation Iraqi Freedom, American actor Liev Schreiber had an idealistic thought: rescue an Iraqi film student from the rubble of his country and bring him to Prague to work on his new film, Everything is Illuminated. What promises to be a heartwarming tale quickly becomes a mirror of the complex intercultural realities that have plagued the United States' war in Iraq. Director Nina Davenport sets out to document Schreiber's well-intentioned effort but soon finds herself embroiled in an escalating power struggle between herself as filmmaker and her young Iraqi subject.

Comstock Films seeks an editor's assistant/intern.
Technical Requirements: Basic working knowledge of FinalCutPro
Duties: Digitization of footage; synchronization of audio and video, basic logging and organization of footage.
Our approach to filmmaking is, both techincally and creatively, idiosyncratic, so adaptablity is as important as technical expertise and experience. A great opportunity to see a critically and financially successful independent production shop from the inside out; a great foot-in-the-door opportunity for a creative and energetic person.
Our films are sexual/erotic in nature. You will not be working with explicit footage, but must be comfortable with sexual themes.
Additionally, this job may not be a resume builder for all candidates. You will learn a lot and be treated well, but that may not immediately translate into future opportunities with other production companies. Please be ready to explain what you see yourself getting out of working with us.
This is not a paying position at this time.
Please contact peggy at comstockfilms dot com
joiningthedots.tv is a completely new documentary channel. It uses the power of broadband to bring the best documentaries on-demand, direct to your home. We specialise in intelligent, thought provoking films that challenge preconceptions and provide a more coherent picture of the way we live today.
Whatever you are interested in – politics, love, war, culture or religion – joiningthedots.tv brings together a unique collection of films to present a stimulating alternative to the formulaic programming of modern day broadcasters.
We are looking for quality documentaries for the site. We do not aggregate content for the sake of it and therefore we are very choosy about the films we acquire. We are a pay-per-view / subscription site and work with content holders on a revenue share basis.
We have launched with 60 fantastic titles and will be adding 5 – 10 per month.
We are partnered with The Independent newspaper in the UK, who will be running a version of jtd via their website. We will be marrying their editorial excellence with our filmic storytelling by embedding links and trailers in their editorials, which have similar subjects to the films.
All films are piracy protected and territories that may have already gone can be geo-filtered. For the strongest of films we acquire, we will offer the option of selling DVDs via the site. We also have a partnership with Picturehouse cinemas in the UK. They will screen one of our flagship films on a joiningthedots.tv / Independent branded night in a UK wide release every six weeks.

Looking for a videographer/filmmaker to help me film a documentary at the pyramids of Teotihuacan, Mexico in mid-July. I will be documenting my experience in a workshop done at the pyramids on Finding Your Authentic Voice. I have no budget other than covering expenses, so would like to find someone who is interested in an adventure and partnering with me to create something magical! Here's a link to information on the trip.
I've been producing a local access cable show, but have limited experience in filming. So I would be very grateful for any advice, suggestions, contacts.
Check out these articles about location filming, one in Latin America, the other in Africa.
Thanks, John! These articles are an excellent resource.
Hi guys,
If anyone is in need of transcripts, please contact me at email@example.com
What we do for you:
We offer accurate and bilingual transcripts with time codes. Although we do digitize your tapes for you if needed, we also provide you with a way of uploading your footage online so that you do not have to pay for couriering costs. We guarantee our clients' transcripts within a 24-48 hour period and are flexible to your needs.
What we provide for you:
We, at Multi-Media, know that creating a "paper cut" of your footage is time consuming and inconvenient. We also know that paying an editor to work with you in an edit suite for several hours, just to do the initial organizing of your footage, becomes quite expensive. We decided to help our clients by providing them with a free tool to do preliminary work from your home, office, or anywhere you have an Internet connection. We provide a free online tool that allows non-fiction filmmakers to upload their footage online, view their footage alongside their transcripts, avoid the hassle of tapes, work when and where they want, create a complete editing script and machine readable EDL online, create, organize, and reorganize clips, and work with colleagues globally. Our clients benefit from their ability to prepare and organize their editing scripts free of cost before entering an editing suite, reducing both time and expenses. We also invite our clients to store their footage, transcripts, and EDLs online as portable portfolios to share with colleagues and collaborators.
Our Invitation:
To show you how useful our service really is, we are offering you a free thirty-minute transcript on us and 10% off your entire first project. To reserve this offer, register on www.RoughCutOnline.com today and this offer will be available to you until August 31, 2008. Once your transcript is complete, you will be able to begin using our rough cutting tool for no additional costs.
If you have any further questions, feel free to email or phone me at 416-977-3489 and I will be more than happy to discuss your requirements.
Jamie Cochrane
Project Manager
Multi-Media Transcripts, Inc.
Wow, that gives "online" editing a whole new meaning.
But hey, having all my interviews transcribed in 24 to 48 hours? I'd love that. Last time, my interns needed many weeks to get it all done...
Your poor interns ;)
We really try to be as accommodating as possible to the needs of our clients. If you are in a really big hurry and need something done in 24-48 hours, we will rush to have it at the most convenient time for you.
Yes, the online tool sure puts a spin on things. I would love for you guys to check it out and tell me what you think of it because it is a relatively new tool that we have designed and we are still working to improve it in anyway we can, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
You can actually play around with it a bit without registering by going to www.RoughCutOnline.com and click on "Learn more" and then click on "try it now".

Hello D-Word People!
My name is Neil Benezra and I am a Sound Designer/Mixer/Editor with many award winning films under my belt. I hope my work might be of interest to some of you in your current or future endeavors. I have a small audio post studio in downtown Brooklyn, with a Foley/VO/ADR booth as well as an FTP for long distance projects. Please feel free to call me no matter how big or small your project is.
Neil Benezra
Welcome aboard, Neil (no need to double post at the D-Word)
hey neil,
i'm looking to record some VO of one of my main characters – it would probably take about 1-2 hours. what is your standard (documentary) charge for such work? what kind of equipment do you use in the VO booth?
you can reply to me off-list if you like: cccwong AT gmail DOT com
The American News Project (http://newsproject.org) is dedicated to defending and promoting the public interest through high-quality, investigative video journalism. Our staff includes video professionals who have worked at CNN, National Geographic, PBS Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal and other respectable media outlets. Our reports (some call them mini-documentaries) regularly end up on prominent media outlets like the Huffington Post.
We are building out our network of freelance filmmakers and video journalists. ANP is run very much like a traditional magazine. Video reports are produced staff reporters and qualified freelancers. Our stories are distributed to hundreds of blogs and major media sites.
We are assembling a community of video journalists and documentary filmmakers who believe in quality, accuracy and in the transformative potential of good multimedia storytelling. Some of the most incisive reporting is produced by those who know the personalities and communities directly affected by issues and events.
If you are a documentary filmmaker or professional video journalist who would like to work with us on stories please click on the link below and fill out your info.
We believe that these are seminal times, both in the evolution of media and the project of America. By grinding away at pernicious problems; by holding the powerful accountable; by seeking out universal stories of struggle and transcendence; by highlighting voices overlooked by mainstream outlets; by making a commitment to quality; by partnering with our peers in the independent press; and by assembling an online community of media junkies who hunger to participate, we hope to help pioneer a form of online public-interest broadcasting that is both entertaining and transformative.
So, welcome. We hope you enjoy, and we hope you participate.
below, sound recordest needed in Germany. I noticed it in Craig's Berlin list this morning and by chance the person posting is someone I just worked with. Nice guy.
I don't think we have German sound recordists on The D-Word, so that's a bit pointless. But www.crew-united.com lists 259 of them. If your colleagues find someone locally, they could save the money for airfare and accommodation and instead actually pay the guy... However, for that, they would need to get the location right. "Neuhosen" doesn't exist in Germany.
In reply to Suzy Spivey's post on Wed 28 May 2008 :
Hi Suzy!
I just sent you an email regarding your upcoming documentary about the "Authentic Voice" workshop.
Thought I'd write here as well in case you check this first!
Daniel V.
Can we please ban posts saying "I sent you an email" for good?
Thanks for the link, Ben. And people know people – and some independents can also do good sound recording in that context. The airfare is Euro-local, not from NAmerica, of course. And I didn't write it, so if Neuhosen is a phonetic spelling for wherever he (a French mother-tongue cameraman) is – someplace near the south at amusic fest....
Why are you picking on posts I make, Ben? I think more laterally than some people, and try not to be frivolous, but we have been around the block on this. If you think I am not contributing here, then cool, I leave.
And by the way, it's a paid gig, not posh but paid nonetheless. On top of meals, accomodation and transport.
According to the original post the gig does clearly seem to be "expenses only", so Ben's point is reasonable. Maybe you should forward his suggestion?
Earth Films is looking for an experienced feature-length doc editor for our film on the Earth Liberation Front. This is a very exciting project about a timely, important topic that touches on key issues facing the U.S. and the world at large: ecological destruction, social change, terrorism and civil liberties. It is a character-driven story with a solid, well-defined narrative structure supported by extensive, intimate and exclusive (or near-exclusive) access to several of the main people in the story.
Principal photography on the project is complete and all tapes (approx. 40 hours) have been digitized in FCP. Transcription is nearly done and we have a music producer/composer in place. Shooting was done on a PD 170 in DVCam with a small light kit for indoor scenes. Sound was recorded on Sennheiser wired and wireless lav mics with occasional use of a Sennheiser shotgun mic.
Shooting style is a mixture of sit-down interview and interactive-cinema-verite, where the filmmakers' influence is clearly present in the story development and in the relationships with the characters. There is also a significant amount of archival footage to work with. We're very much aligned with the Documentary New Wave camp, being open to whatever storytelling methods best suit the material.
Ideally, whoever comes on board will have edited at least one feature-length doc and have name recognition and experience that will help us to sell the show and find funding for her/his salary. If you don't have that and you think you'd be a good fit for the project, please get in touch anyway! While our budget is minimal so far, we're now actively starting fundraising. We are not asking anyone to work of a deferred basis (though we wouldn't turn down the offer).
We're putting a WIP together now for the Sundance Doc Fund submission deadline in early July. The right person could start immediately by helping finish that. This would be a good way to assess "fit" for the larger project. We have sufficient budget for this phase.
We're located in Northern California, but can travel. We also have easy access to the S.F. Bay Area. If an editor is mobile, we have a nice studio space with a digital projector and PA system and basic accommodations in Garberville, California. We also have the same in Southern Arizona for winter-time work.
Contact me at email@example.com
Any references or suggestions appreciated!
Hey Hosts, I know, I know, double-posting and all...but this has been modified from the original version in Members Classifieds. If ya gotta delete one, X that old one, okay?
In reply to John Burgan's post on Sat 14 Jun 2008 :
I had spoken to the fellow coincidentally on another matter, the same day, after sharing the post. They were offering up to 100 euros a day for 5 days. Not exactly union rates but it's a music fest doc, not SOP...

UnionDocs is looking for a new resident starting this summer. The UnionDocs Residency (UDR) combines an excellent and cooperative living situation with an opportunity for immersion in independent cultural production. Six carefully selected people live together in a historic building at a great location and collaborate to produce a festival-quality documentary series in the first floor screening room.
322 Union is a great place to live. It has a lot of shared resources and a lot of opportunity for fun while also having adequate privacy and a comfort (not always found in NYC communal living). There are three floors, a basement, a grassy backyard with a grill and deck, a big second story porch, and skyline views from the roof. The location is close to excellent transportation making most cool spots in Manhattan and Brooklyn within a short subway ride.
The first floor is a commercial space run by the program director. It includes the screening room, 2 studios for working media artists, the UnionDocs director's office, and access to the basement which has been sound-proofed for music rehearsal and audio recording. Resources on the first floor are readily available to UD Residents outside of the schedule for the Documentary Bodega Series.
On the floors above, there are two nicely-sized three bedroom apartments with a living room, kitchen and bath. Both have wood floors, get lots of light, and were recently renovated. Bedrooms can be locked, but common spaces are shared by the six residents. One is better for cooking large meals and socializing and the other more appropriate for reading, working, and watching films. The common spaces are furnished, so residents need only bring the contents of their bedroom. The building has high-speed internet, a VOIP phone, and washer and dryer.
About $975/month plus deposit. Anticipated grants will help subsidize this.
Please check out our website for more information about UnionDocs and UDR and fill out an application if you are interested:
In reply to Stephen H. Frye M.D.'s post on Mon 16 Jun 2008 :
I am not an award winning film-maker but a documentary film-maker who would be interested in reading this book/lecture. It sounds very interesting. How can I get a copy.

Film Review: A Return to Salem's Lot (1987)
SYNOPSIS: A man and his son vacation to the quiet vampire populated town of Salem's Lot. REVIEW: Hollywood has been doing a far better job with its sequels in recent years by maintaining production levels, story continuity and recasting actors. Audiences are given a better movie experience and Hollywood is rewarded with higher grosses, but this wasn't always the case. Many poorly conducted sequels that feel like a different movie entirely, and are often worse … Continue reading

Women Of Distinction
Last Saturday, I had the honor of attending the Women of Distinction Ceremony hosted by Assemblyman Edward Ra. I would like to offer congratulations to Donnalyn Darling, Regina McGowan, Purnima Popli, M.D. and Willa Ward, distinguished women from the Village of Garden City who were recognized because these women have contributed so much to our local communities whether it be in business, education, healthcare or civic involvement.
Please Continue To Shop And Dine Outdoors In Garden City
The residents of Garden City are very fortunate to have viable retail businesses on Seventh Street, Franklin Avenue and New Hyde Park Road where there is a good variety of quality merchandise and family dining experiences available to be enjoyed. Please support these businesses and enjoy the products, variety and outstanding customer service. Keep in mind that these merchants save you from traveling outside the Village for your needs. Consider the harsh reality if we did not have these businesses here to service our needs. I look forward to seeing everyone in town.
In Garden City, football and lacrosse usually get all the ink and glory given how all facets of these sports seem to consistently come up on the winning end locally. But it's the baseball program that's contributed players to the major league ranks. Last year, former Garden City High School student Rob Finneran was signed to a contract by the Tampa Bay Rays, upon which time he promptly reported to the team's minor league affiliate. But for as exciting as that was, it took Matt Daley, an older alum who not only broke into the bigs, but did it on one of the world's largest stages--Yankee Stadium. In donning pinstripes, Daley took a circuitous route to get to the Bronx by way of the Colorado Rockies, who drafted him, and a significant amount of rehab caused by shoulder surgery. His callup not only found him coming into his second game with the team and being thrown into the fire at Fenway Park, but taking the mound against big names like David Ortiz and Dustin Pedroia. Remarkably enough, Daley got them out as well. It's the kind of storybook situation that's more likely to come out of Hollywood than real life. It'll also undoubtedly serve as inspiration for more than a few Garden City Little Leaguers.

The Garden City Special Police are comprised of residents who choose to give of their free time and energy by volunteering to help maintain the quality of life in Garden City. Their commitment to excellence and dedication to the community helps to give our village a higher level of safety and security to its residents.
The presence of the special police in uniform, on patrol, in marked police units has proven to reduce vandalism and other crimes in the village. The special police are responsible for crowd control at parades, traffic control at fairs and assisting pedestrians at crossings.
Legendary UCLA basketball Coach John Wooden once said, "Winning takes talent, to repeat takes character." If that's the case, I wouldn't bet against the Garden City High School football team, particularly given the fact that Coach Tom Flatley continues to oversee this gridiron squad. While last year's state championship was the latest notch on Flatley's belt, he is no stranger to winning. Recently inducted into the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Hall of Fame, (say that five times fast), the 73-year-old coach has won five Long Island championships, four Rutgers Cups and 18 conference titles during his 28 years at Garden City High School. And thanks to a 246-40-7 lifetime record, this stern taskmaster's .852 winning percentage is the highest in Long Island football history. So while the Trojans are dealing with significant turnover from the loss of some key seniors, would it really surprise anyone to see Coach Flatley and his team capture another state championship?

Thank You Garden City Fire Department
Writing on behalf of the Garden City Community, I wish to thank Fire Chief William Castoro and the members of the Garden City Fire Department for conducting the beautiful 12th year anniversary ceremony of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. It was a very moving experience and assisted many of us to get through that difficult day.Police Enforcement Of Speeding In The Village
With the commencement of the new school year, the police department has extended its aggressive driving campaign to include serious traffic violations on roadways in the vicinity of village schools as well as bus stops and walking routes to schools. From Sept. 3 through Sept. 10, the department issued 54 tickets for speeding in a school zone, 12 tickets were issued for other speeding violations, and 148 tickets issued for miscellaneous moving violations, including cell phone violations, stop sign violations, red light violations, suspended license violations, and suspended registration violations.
The financial condition of the County continues to improve by all fundamental measures, primarily due to the improving economy and cost controls instituted by the Mangano administration. From residents' point of view, the County's improved financial state is reflected in the county portion of their property tax bill, which has not increased in the last four years.
The mid-year financial projections for 2013 indicate that the County will end the year with a $5.6 million budgetary surplus. This follows on the heels of 2012's surplus of $41.5 million, now confirmed by independent auditors. These budget surpluses are due to increased sales tax revenues from the improving economy (up 10.4 percent year to date) and reduced Social Service costs due to lower unemployment (down to 6 percent, one of the lowest rates in New York State and lower than that of Suffolk County and New York City.)
George Maragos continues to mislead the public by falsely claiming that the county's financial condition has improved on his watch. During Mr. Maragos's tenure as Nassau County's fiscal watchdog, the county has undergone three bond downgrades by the credit rating agencies, the county's fiscal outlook has been lowered from "stable" to "negative," and the county's debt has reached a new all-time high. No amount of "cooking the books" and issuing misleading financial statements and press releases can hide this truth, a truth which can be easily verified by outside sources.
As a Certified Public Accountant and former Nassau County Comptroller, I can see through the blatant attempts by Maragos to cook the books to produce the result he wants instead of the result that is truthful. The problem is that voters are disillusioned by the back-and-fourth of political campaigns where one side makes one claim and the other side counters with the opposite take. If voters don't know who to believe, they should look at what independent, outside sources have to say about the county's finances.
Lacrosse has seemingly always been an intrinsic part of Garden City. Events like the Annual Jay Gallagher Tournament, which attracts teams from around the country, has brought a nationwide vibe to the village on an annual basis. In the Garden City Public School District, the Trojans' excellence between the lines wound up having the boys team win the state championship and get named the nation's top-ranked team in 2011 while the girls team was also crowned state champions that same year. So it's reassuring to know that since 2006, Bob Jahelka and Michael Winkoff have taken a vested interest in getting younger kids involved in lacrosse via the duo's For the Love of the Game (FLG) organization.
The residents of Garden City are very fortunate to have viable retail businesses on Seventh Street, Franklin Avenue and New Hyde Park Road where there is a good variety of quality merchandise and family dining experiences available to be enjoyed. Please support these businesses and enjoy the products, variety and outstanding customer service. I look forward to seeing everyone in town.
Renaissance English poet Francis Quarles once wrote, "Flatter not thyself in thy faith in God if thou hast not charity for thy neighbor." If a recent Mission Trip to Long Beach is any indication, this is apparently a tenet that the Garden City Community Church has taken to heart. After holding a number of fundraising events to pay for building materials and supplies, 37 students and eight adult leaders from the congregation made a short trek to the South Shore to help out a number of people still trying to recover from the devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy. Plenty of sweat equity and considerable man hours and finances were invested in restoring a number of homes and helping to lay the foundation of the church the volunteers stayed at. It's reaffirming to know that there are people living within the borders of Garden City for whom the proverb "Love thy neighbor" goes beyond just hearing it preached in a sermon.

Geologists track small earthquakes near Mount St. Helens
Geologists have been tracking an unusual sequence of earthquakes in recent weeks near Mount St. Helens.
The Columbian
It's not anything to panic about, but geologists have tracked an interesting cluster of small earthquakes near Mount St. Helens through the month of August.
The cluster, which included 3.7, 3.4 and 3.1 magnitude quakes on Aug. 23, started on Aug. 2 with a 3.1 magnitude quake, said Seth Moran, a seismologist with the Cascades Volcano Observatory.
"These earthquakes are occurring at about 12 miles northwest of Mount St. Helens at a depth of about 10 miles," Moran said. "We had (quakes lower than magnitude 3) occurring as often as a couple a day for a few weeks."
The observatory reported about 120 earthquakes in total since the swarm began on Aug. 2.
People in Battle Ground, Clark County, reported feeling the 3.7 on Aug. 23, but since then things have tapered off. The last measurable quake was a 0.6 magnitude on Tuesday, Moran said.
The quakes are related to faults in the Earth's crust and not to the volcano. There are many small fractures in the crust related to plate tectonics and the Cascadia subduction zone, where the Juan de Fuca plate is sliding beneath the North America plate.
"The context for this is that earthquakes have occurred in that area for centuries," Moran said. "But the thing about these that's a little unusual is the sequence of earthquakes. Usually the largest one is first, but this time the largest one came a few weeks after the first one."
That phenomenon is unusual but not unprecedented.
"It's just the Earth around us is moving and patches of rock are bumping and grinding against each other," Moran said.
Magma movement in Mount St. Helens appears to cause seismic activity only up to about 5 miles away from the mountain, and usually it's only within a mile or so, he added.
Similar activity has been recorded on the south side of Mount Hood this past week, with 16 small earthquakes in the Government Camp and Barlow Pass areas. The largest was a magnitude 2.0 quake on Monday, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The August cluster of earthquakes near Mount St. Helens appear to be mostly finished, Moran said.
"For the time being it's looking like its tapering off," Moran said. "With these sequences, once they're done usually they don't start up again for a long time. That could be what we're seeing in this micro-zone."

I was a gay Boy Scout. I didn't know it at the time but I definitely was what the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) fears most.
All the good men are NOT taken! I can prove it.
When I was single, I remember those days of wondering when the heck was I gonna find my man? I was so SICK and TIRED of being alone. I hated the feeling of those lonely Saturday nights by myself (and Friday nights, and Sunday nights… and…) I had so many doubts that I'd ever even find a good man at all and fears of being alone forever. That maybe, by some weird freak of nature, I was "meant" to be alone. Can you relate?

Sex, Love, Magic & Football
As exciting as it was watching the Baltimore Ravens play the San Francisco 49ers for the Super Bowl title, one of the better parts of the game was watching the commercials.
