A federal court judge dismissed the NCAA's motion to prevent football and men's basketball players from legally pursuing a cut of live broadcast revenues.
Judge Claudia Wilken issued a ruling on Tuesday to reject the NCAA's motion that players in an anti-trust suit led by former UCLA basketball star Ed O'Bannon should be thrown out on procedural grounds.
The NCAA objected to the players amending their lawsuit last year to claim a share of all television game revenues, not just those off of rebroadcasts.
"Now the (NCAA and its co-defendants) are facing potential liability in the billions of dollars instead of tens or hundreds of millions," said Michael Hausfeld, interim lead counsel for the plaintiffs, according to ESPN.com. "It's a more accurate context for what the players deserve."
The NCAA does not legally treat student-athletes as employees and the players have not organized to represent their interests collectively. That is what the O'Bannon suit is seeking to change for all Division I players in football and men's basketball. Former college stars such as Bill Russell and Oscar Robertson have also joined O'Bannon's suit.
A hearing for class certification in the O'Bannon suit has been set for June 20. The NCAA has been ordered to make its arguments against class certification on the merits and not the procedural objects that were just rejected.

White Slender Noodles
Last updated by chinatravel at 2015/11/13
White Slender Noodles is a special variety of Changzhou. It is made by adding egg white directly to the flour to make dough and then rolling it into noodles with a thin-tooth noodle knife. The noodle is as slender as silk and as white as silver. It is soft and smooth with great flexibility. It will not turn into paste while in pot. Hence, it acquired its name. White Slender Noodles has a history of more than 30 years. It is particular about supplementary ingredients and strict about operating procedures. It is one of the varieties collected and edited by "Chinese Snack Menu".

Building up my daughter's old/new 1972 Motobecane Nomade recently, i was looking for 27 inch tires in town and found what I thought were my only options without going online. They were $9 a tire, and the only option to get her on her new bike for the weekend, so I ventured into a bike shop I've never patronized and took a chance. Check out the bulge on the sidewall. I used my silca track floor pump to partially inflate and seat the tube by feel, then later pumped a bit more to reach about 60, maybe 70lbs and left it at that. The Kendas are rated as 90lbs max. Later that night as the wheel rested against a wall, I started hearing odd sounds...
I've since found one other local option for 27 inch tires and am installing them tonight. i plan to take the Kendas (both) back to that shop. We shall see if they will accept the return and refund the money. I'm posting this mainly for the funky bulge aspect. With the tire off I can now feel the variable thickness of the sidewall at that area and notice the incomplete stamping of the sizing numerals.

Robin Williams to be Immortalised in World of Warcraft - NewsDaniel Carreras, posted on 13 August 2014 / 7,124 Views
With Robin Williams' sudden passing this week, many of those who were saddened by the loss put their names to an online petition to get the comedian and actor put into World of Warcraft as a non-playable character.
The petition managed to get over 10,000 signatures in no time. When asked on twitter whether Blizzard had seen the petition, technical game designer Chadd Nervig replied: "Yes. We're taking care of it."
To make this informal confirmation official, the official Blizzard account then tweeted: "@robinwilliams Thank you. You gave us so much joy in our lives, and we hope you enjoyed your time in our world. We'll see you in-game".
It's not yet known how Williams will appear in the game, but he probably would have loved the gesture as he was such a big gamer that he named his own daughter Zelda.

04/17/2011, Atlantic Ocean WINDWARD MARK!
We were invited on our new friend's 'cat', Kuhala, along with 10 or so others to watch the race way out at the windward mark! This sure beats hiking up the mountain, in the heat, carrying tp, water, sunscreen, towels, lunch, chairs, bug spray...you get the idea and everybody who had already done this said it was HOT!
What a spectacular day! The photography that was going on today was over the top! I shot almost 500 photos, and Lauren said she shot 1,800 with her Nikon and zoom lens! I got a ton of amazing shots of these incredibly gorgeous machines with my Canon, too scared to bring my new Nikon out here on the water!
What a treat! Thank you so much Kuhala, that was awesome taking us all out to the windward mark for this magnificent display of incredibly beautiful boat designs. The classes were: Traditional: fishing or cargo vessels built or converted to sail; Vintage: yachts with a full keel in original condition designed and launched before WWII; Classic: yachts with a full keel designed and launched after WWII; Classic GRP: fibreglass boats with long keels and descendants of wood boat design; Spirit of Tradition: Yachts built recently using modern methods and design, but retaining the original grace and style of the old classics. Last but not least is the Tall Ship class: Sail training and passenger vessels.
Truly a gift to be able to see these majestic boats in action with so many crew that it had to take months to train for this event! Remarkable!
Thanks so very much Kuhala, Lin and Harry, you are a class act yourselves!
Now you try picking just one of these beauties or a bunch...hopefully I'll get a chance to set up a photo album on this site for you to see the Classic Regatta or a lot of it anyway!
04/16/2011, Mad Mongoose...Party Central!
I don't know who really organized this evening, but I'd wager it was Lorry! They are planning the strategy for obtaining Mount Gay Hats, and other momentos for the Classic Regatta!
What a great bunch of people! Only problem is we are all still kids! Immediately, the guys gathered at one end and the girls at the other! Are we back in high school! Or is this our second childhood?
Connie has a great chef, Basil and the food is consistently super! Thanks Lorry! Thanks Stephen...and most of all thanks honey for another night out!
We seriously are going to have to go somewhere and dry out! This is only day 5 and we are bushed! The Regatta just started too!
04/16/2011, Behind Kuhala...
I went to help organize the evening where a big gang was going to meet at Mad Mongoose tonight and I was tied up to my new best friend's CAT, Kuhala!
As I was leaving, unclipping the painter from the stern, my wonderful, waterproof camera, the Canon, took a dive! I tore off my hat, my camera bag (which should've been zipped), and dove right in! The weather was cloudy, overcast and the water was turbid! I free dove about three times, they were anchored in 20' of murky water, but I couldn't get to the bottom nor see anything long enough. I was determined not to get discouraged, but I needed help. Lin immediately gave me some fins and a mask...still not able to get to the bottom and see anything! I flew back to Altair, got my weight belt, my mask and fins and it helped, but now I had to figure the swinging path the boat was making on her anchor. When I got back to our boat, I asked Dudley if I could call the diver that cleaned our bottom yesterday! He had to come back for the $30 we accidentally shorted him, so I didn't feel bad asking him to him to come by Kuhala next to us.
Maurice has a good system, for just such a predicament...score the bottom slowly to mark where he'd been then move along accordingly! He sent his two young helpers to get another tank and now I'm wondering if I closed all the openings as if I was going on a dive, etc.
He was taking too long and I was now afraid that a current might have carried my wee whittle camera away and he was going to charge more than the camera was worth!
He came up trying to act like he was not successful, but in the end he had a great big smile and the good news! He didn't want to charge a thing, was glad we were honest about the $30, but we gave him $70EC, (only $26 US), but it was a glorious moment. I love that camera!
Thanks Maurice, thanks honey, thanks Lin (for all your support)!
04/15/2011, Falmouth Harbor Neighbors!
We thought we were going in to join the festivities and share the Dark and Stormy party at the Antigua Yacht Club! We were dressed, almost ready to go when we got an invite to come join our friends Lorry and Steve on Kuhala with Lin and Harry! They would not take no for an answer and when I found out that she turns into Patrisse after a couple of sundowners, I knew we'd hit it off! They have this huge party boat, a bit catamaran that was the plan to host parties and have friends and family join them when they sold their home and took off for the Caribbean. They have kept to their wishes and plans...we will attest to that!
We skipped the dark and stormy night with strangers and made new friends! Thanks Kuhala for including us!
04/14/2011, Falmouth Harbor, Antigua
We took off with Lorry and Stephen to check out the mega yachts here from all over the world for this elite regatta! The rich and famous are here lined up on the dock with their crew and monster sail bags lined up as far as the eye can see! The frenzied activity is breathtaking...with each and every boat doing the last minute touch ups on varnish or brass or stainless! We think they take the lifelines off for cleaner lines and some clearly never had them to begin with and you can see the hand grips are the only thing to brace a foot to to grab!
Our dear friends, Pam and Brian on the classic gaff schooner, Rebecca, gave me back my flip flops, in the middle of their personal frenzied last minute touches, and even suggested we might have a chance to be on board for one day of the races, depending on how their crew works together! Wow! Just to be considered is an honor! She's gorgeous and she knows it...but seriously, she's a newbie by these standards, and tiny in comparison to some of the mega yachts, reaching lengths well beyond 40 meters!
Here are just a few that can wet your whistle! OMG...what a treat! So was the free Mt. Gay Rum!
04/13/2011, Nelson's Dockyard...
We walked over to English Harbor, and had to take a peak at the classic yachts over there. We were early and needed to check in with Customs and Immigration in an historical building just across from the Copper and Lumber, another historical building, serving breakfast 'til 10:30. As is true to form with the British clearing in officials, it was past serving time when we left their offices, duly allowed, formally paid for all the park fees, service fees and now we're searching for food!
We just stopped in to ask what food was available since breakfast is officially over! We bumped into Cassandra...a good friend we've kept in touch with since we met her 2 years ago when we were here! She got the chef to cook us a top notch English breakfast and hugs were the star of the morning!
Ok, so these Classic Yachts are too...later!

Tricks of the trade
Middle East | How far does journalistic fraud extend in reporting from Lebanon?
"Tricks of the trade" Continued...
Early this month one press service, Reuters, fired one photographer, Adnan Hajj, for doctoring photos so as to turn a defensive flare fired by Israeli planes into multiple missile launches, and to make smoke over Beirut larger and darker. But as August wore on, bloggers found repeated instances of Hezbollah news manipulation and staging of scenes-and even some writers and photographers for mainstream media sounded the alarm.
Among the examples of staged photography by Reuters, the Associated Press, and Agence France Presse that journalism schools and traditional textbooks see as unethical:
- Photos of bombing sites with clean and undamaged toys and stuffed animals perfectly positioned in front of them for maximum poignant impact. It's possible that Mickey Mouse and others merely sprung up at those spots, but it's much more likely that their placement was the product of intelligent design.
- Photographers moving other objects to more readily jerk tears. For example, many media outlets displayed a photograph of a mannequin with a wedding dress standing near the site of an Israeli air raid-as if an explosion that knocked down a building a few yards away would leave a mannequin standing but unnoticed by hundreds of rescuers and media members running around earlier in the day.
- Photos of "rescue workers" that are actually shots of propagandists repositioning bodies for maximum effect, parading around with corpses, and instructing photographers what to shoot.
- Photos two weeks apart showing the same Lebanese woman bemoaning the destruction of her apartment by Israeli bombs. The photos show her in front of two different buildings, leading one blogger to write, "Either this woman is the unluckiest multiple home owner in Beirut, or something isn't quite right."
- Photo recycling with captions indicating that they show fresh destruction. Reuters recycled a photo of one Beirut building destroyed on July 18 so that it was supposedly destroyed again on July 26 and again on August 5.
Newspapers used many such photos and so did major magazines. The cover of the July 31 edition of U.S. News and World Report had a photo captioned, "A Hezbollah gunman aims his AK 47 at a fire caused by an explosion in Kfarshima, near Beirut, Lebanon, Monday, July 17, 2006." The magazine suggested that the explosion came from a shot-down Israeli aircraft hitting the ground. But bloggers showed that the photo was of tires burning in a garbage dump after a misfired Hezbollah missile hit them. An accurate caption would have read, "A Hezbollah PR man points a rifle for dramatic effect at a tire fire."
One photographer, Brian Denton, acknowledged the problem: "I have been working in Lebanon since all this started, and seeing the behavior of many of the Lebanese wire service photographers has been a bit unsettling. . . . I have been witness to the daily practice of directed shots, one case where a group of wire photogs were choreographing the unearthing of bodies, directing emergency workers here and there, asking them to position bodies just so, even remove bodies that have already been put in graves so that they can photograph them in people's arms. These photographers have come away with powerful shots that required no manipulation digitally, but instead, manipulation on a human level, and this itself is a bigger ethical problem."
Columnist Dave Kopel, writing in the Rocky Mountain News, presented other vignettes of Hezbollah propagandists at work: "While carrying the bodies on a short path where the photographers are clustered, they wail copiously and cry in anguish, holding up the corpses for display. Before and after the 'camera run,' they display little emotion and treat the children's bodies callously. They make sure one rescuer completes his camera run before the next rescuer leaves the building for his own camera run. . . . While an interview is taking place, a couple of men carrying a body on a stretcher come around a corner; they set the stretcher down and wait for photographers to get in position before they pick up the stretcher and resume walking forward."
Tim Rutten of the Los Angeles Times acknowledged the problem: Many photos "clearly are posed for maximum dramatic effect. There is an entire series of photos of children's stuffed toys poised atop mounds of rubble. All are miraculously pristinely clean and apparently untouched by the devastation they purportedly survived. (Reuters might want to check its freelancers' expenses for unexplained Toys R Us purchases.)"
Press organizations have commonly taken a hard line against photo manipulation. Last month The Charlotte Observer fired a photographer for changing the color of the sky in a picture of firefighters, and three years ago the Los Angeles Times also terminated an employee for photo manipulation in Iraq. But the response of press lords to the Lebanon revelations has been largely defensive so far, and some photographers have closed ranks. One photog, Damon Lee Perry, noted that many of his colleagues "don't wish to even entertain the thought that Hezbollah and their jihadi friends would dare commit fraud/media manipulation."
Others say that photographers have to keep Hezbollah happy to gain access to sites; if they don't have access they can't shoot and then sell their photographs; if they don't sell they don't eat. As CNN's Nic Robertson said last month, "Hezbollah has very, very sophisticated and slick media operations . . . [and] control over its areas in the south of Beirut. . . . You don't get in there without their permission."
Still others say that stringers are competing for sales by producing photos more dramatic than real life brings them. That defense, though, raises questions about the gullibility of editors who forget the need to be skeptical about stories or photos that are too good to be true.
None of the Lebanon manipulation is brand new. A WORLD interview with author Stephanie Guttman detailed anti-Israel bias from 2000 to 2004 (see "Photographic negative," March 4, 2006). WORLD also reported that after Saddam Hussein's fall some journalists confessed their playing along with him to maintain Baghdad access-twisting the news to get "the news." Most recently, reports circulated of a 5-year-old Palestinian girl killed by an Israeli military strike-but doctors said she died after sustaining head injuries during a fall from a swing.
The deeper question some ask is whether these questions about manipulation should be primary: After all, the corpses generally are real (although in one case bloggers discovered a propagandist posing himself as a dead man and springing back to life moments after the shutters twitched). People in civilian clothes are dying (note, though, that terrorists rarely wear uniforms). Some innocent people, including children, have died-that is true-and if it takes a Mickey Mouse or a wedding dress to draw our attention to the bombings, so be it.
Some photographers have thought through questions of responsibility for those deaths. Daniel Etter wrote on one blog, "The real staging happens before the rescue worker shows the dead children to photographers. It happens when the Hezbollah builds [a] kindergarten right next to their positions."
Etter went on, though, to note that propaganda is common: "PR agencies fly to Kuwait just before the American troops arrive to distribute small American flags." But is that action morally equivalent to launching missiles next to a school? Rutten of the Los Angeles Times criticized Hezbollah's media control and noted "no similar flow of propagandistic images coming from the Israeli side of the border. That's because one side-the democratically elected government of Israel-views death as a tragedy and the other-the Iranian-financed terrorist organization Hezbollah-sees it as an opportunity."
Rutten noted that Hezbollah terrorists "use their own people as human shields," but "every Israeli civilian killed or injured was the victim of a terrorist attack intended to harm civilians. That alone ought to wash away any blood-stained suggestion of moral equivalency."

The Encyclopedist of the Grind House: Tarantino on Film
"All right now, if you're a person like me you really enjoy seeing child actors get traumatized, all right, I mean stuff that they're never going to forget for the rest of their lives, 'cause that's what Silent Night Deadly Night is all about." Some of the most thrillingly unorthodox film criticism in America was recently improvised at two in the morning in an Austin, Texas, movie joint that serves Schlitz by the bucket along with eight-dollar Enter the Dragon Pizza (bell peppers, sausage, and five-alarm jalapeños). The Alamo Drafthouse is where Quentin Tarantino just concluded QT VI, a nine-day festival where cineastes gather for eight-hour-long theme nights (Sexploitation, Italian Seventies Crime, Secret Agent Movies), all punctuated by ecstatic riffs from the most consistently brilliant genre director since the Golden Age of Hollywood.
Once a hopped-up monomaniac, the 42-year-old Tarantino now takes the stage with the ease of a national treasure. Wearing a Richard Pryor Live in Concert T-shirt, QT does arias on the evening's features, making unexpected connections, drawing on histories you've never heard of, conjuring inside-baseball analogies that make the audience of dweeb diehards burst into applause--like, "The Venetian Affair is basically the Hickey and Boggs of Man from U.N.C.L.E. movies!" (He's also present in the lobby at 5:00 a.m. to patiently answer your questions about Crown International pom-pom movies.)
Among the highlights of the lowbrow maestro's Felix the Cat grab bag of goodies is Shame of the Jungle, an animated French porno with American voices dubbed by the likes of Bill Murray and John Belushi. Featuring a chimp pantomiming a series of sex acts as hectic as the one in The Aristocrats, the 1979 cartoon had a sleepy late-night crowd retching with laughter.Four Desperate Men (1959), an Australian noir set in bright sunshine, pits a quartet of homespun terrorists against the small-town fuzz, and shows why Aldo Ray's bulldog mug became the inspiration for Bruce Willis's Pulp Fiction boxer. But the abovementioned Silent Night Deadly Night (1984) was the belle of the ball--a sicko shocker in which a small child is terrorized by family, religion, and commerce into becoming a killer Santa.
QT has become a nonpareil encyclopedist, a Harold Bloom of the grind house. Does he just have a sweet tooth for blue-collar schlock? Far from it; his wide-ranging tastes are enabling him to create an alternative canon to the dogmatic AFI 100, and he's inventing a new way of talking about movies, throwing down essays on cinema like a rapper free-styling rhymes. His all-night pulp fests are becoming essential viewing for any self-respecting 21st-century film lover.

Soon after the teaser trailer for the fourth season of "American Horror Story: Freak Show" was uploaded to YouTube earlier this week, it went viral. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of hits on YouTube, the creepy 21-second clip was circulated by news outlets around the world. That's not, in itself, surprising given the crazy popularity of the FX anthology series created by Ryan Murphy, but here's the catch: the trailer was fan-made.
Not surprisingly, Fox had the video taken down from YouTube due to a copyright claim. But never fear, we've got the video for you (below), as well as the back story about how the video was made.
Indiewire e-mailed with the video's creator, Kellen Moore, who explained how he got the idea for the video and how it went crazy viral.
What prompted you to make the video?
I graduated Chapman University in 2012, and since graduating it's been a challenge trying to get my footing in this industry. I have a close group of friends that collaborate with frequently- my producer, Andrew Ducote, and Cinematographer, Jonathan Bruno. We've had the opportunity to shoot commercials for some major brands such as M&Ms and Burger King. I am a big "American Horror Story" fan. I have a lot of respect for that show, but more specific to the promo we did, I've been a tremendous fan of the show's marketing. I've followed Ryan Murphy's promo work for his shows dating back to "Nip/Tuck." His work was an inspirational guide through film school, so when my friends and I wanted to do something creative for ourselves, I suggested we go after a dream -- do a promo for season four of "American Horror Story." My professors always said, "if you want to create, create, and if you want to direct, direct"... even though the promo was unofficial, it was a total blast having the opportunity to put my stamp on a brand and television show I love and respect.
I started production on the spot as early as March. I knew I wanted the promo to really be something special, so my producer and I made it point to give it all the detail and attention any production company would. We had animatics made of the promo before we shot it to help recruit some of our teammates -- as it was a very low budget passion project we wanted to show the series intent behind the spot.
How did you get it out into the world?
Were you surprised that people thought it was the official teaser from FX?
What's your background? Are you a filmmaker or just a fan?
Love what you do and do solid work. All we wanted to do was pursue a personal dream and we had a blast while we did it. I think the internet noticed that and embraced it. I'm very grateful to have had such an audience with this- even though it's unofficial, reading the responses has made it feel very official. My team and I are incredibly grateful.

Baldwin BOE to hold special meeting Tuesday
The Baldwin Board of Education will hold a special meeting on Tuesday at 8 p.m. in the district office to discuss the potential impact of the recently passed state budget on the district's proposed 2014-15 budget.
When the State Legislature approved its own budget last week, included in it was a provision offering tax rebates to homeowners who live within school districts that propose budgets at or below the tax levy limit. The Baldwin Board of Education and administration have discussed putting forth a budget that exceeds its maximum allowable limit in recent months, but the state's new legislation has prompted a special meeting to be held.
There will be no opportunity for public comment at the special meeting, but the board will hold its monthly regular meeting on Wednesday at 8 p.m.

Definition of FBN1
FBN1: The fibrillin 1 gene. This gene is mutated in Marfan syndrome, the MASS syndrome, and related disorders of connective tissue. The FBN1 gene produces a protein called fibrillin-1 which is transported out of the cell and deposited in the extracellular matrix, the intricate lattice in which cells are embedded to build tissues. In this matrix, fibrillin becomes part of small threadlike filaments called microfibrils, which in turn help build elastic fibers. Elastic fibers are essential for the function of flexible structures such as blood vessels, the lungs, and skin.
FBN1 is a very large gene, and more than 300 mutations in it have been identified that can cause Marfan syndrome. A mutation in the FBN1 gene alters the production of the fibrillin-1 protein or changes its structure. Patients with Marfan syndrome show decreased production of fibrillin-1, delayed transport of the protein out of the cell, or reduced amounts of the protein in the extracellular matrix. Ultimately, a mutation can lead to weakened structural support in key structures such as blood vessels, heart valves, cartilage, and ligaments.
Fibrillinopathies (type 1) are caused by defects in the fibrillin-1 protein, which is produced by the FBN1 gene. While Marfan syndrome is the most common type of fibrillinopathy, not all mutations in the FBN1 gene cause this syndrome. FBN1 mutations cause a spectrum of connective tissue disorders, with a broad range in severity and age of onset. Some FBN1 mutations cause a severe disorder that is fatal to newborns, while other mutations cause adult onset fibrillinopathies with a single abnormality, such as a dislocated lens in the eye or an abnormal aorta.
The FBN1 gene is located on the long (q) arm of chromosome 15 in band 15q 21.1.

Eleven-year-olds from Maidu hold off Folsom American
By: Kurt Johnson, The Press Tribune
All-star opener ends on bases-loaded fly ball
A pair of back-to-back four run innings gave the Maidu Little League 11-year-old all-stars what they needed to hold off Folsom American 9-7 Saturday at Richards Field in Roseville. There was no scoring early, though not for lack of effort as these two teams battled in the opening pool play contest at the District 54 all-star tournament. Maidu's cause was helped greatly when its outfield arms went on full display early. Folsom American had a base runner gunned down at the dish in the first and another tossed out at third in the second. Both outs ended promising innings for the squad with no runs. The play at home came on a relay through second baseman Tyler Weaver and the second inning out came courtesy the hose of centerfielder Adam Alvarez. Having escaped early trouble for pitcher Paul Gershon unscathed, Maidu got its bats going in the top of the third. A pair of walks and an Alvarez single set the stage for back-to-back run-scoring knocks. The first was a two-run single by Jordan Chapin and the second a two-run double off the bat of Dylan Cole. Patrick Gaffney drew a bases-loaded walk in the Folsom American third to get his team on the board, but Gershon fanned the next two hitters to limit the damage to just a single run. Maidu then tacked on four more in the fourth, with doubles from Tyler Weaver and Gershon as the only two hits it needed. A lead-off Ryan McBride two-bagger and a run-scoring single by Devin Huff picked up one more for Folsom American and after Maidu added a single run in the fifth when Weaver singled and scored on a Cole double. Folsom American countered with two in the fifth and three more in the sixth, but Chapin game on to get a fly ball out to center field that left the bases loaded in the bottom of the sixth with Folsom trailing by just a pair of runs. Maidu had a dozen hits in the game, with Weaver (two doubles and a single) leading the way. Gershon also banged out three hits, while Alvarez, Cole and Chapin each had a pair of knocks. Will Penrose had a double and two singles to pace the Folsom American attack, as Michael Nelsen and McBride each had two hits. With Woodcreek sitting in this pool and just two teams advancing, both Maidu and Folsom American still have some work to do. Woodcreek was a 13-2 winner over Ponderosa Saturday. Maidu was back out at Richards Field at 1 p.m. Sunday to take on Woodcreek in the second of three pool play contests, while Folsom American played Sunday's 10 a.m. game against Ponderosa.

My Shopping List
These rainbow trout are raised in very cold, 53-degree water flowing from an underground spring at a rate of about 1,500 gallons per minute. That means the fish are constantly being given exactly what they need to thrive – cold water and lots of oxygen. And since the spring comes up at the hatchery and raceways, there is no run-off from neighboring fields. Initially, the fish are raised indoors before being sorted and graded, then moved outdoors. And raising trout in raceways instead of ponds results in a better tasting fish. Fed a high-protein diet, they grow to 1 lb. in approximately 12 months.

Here's wishing you all a Happy New Year! I hope 2010 will be a very good year for all of us.
To greet 2010, my brother, sister-in-law, and I decided to cook up a traditional Filipino meal for New Year's: pansit (noodles, for long life), lumpiang shanghai (meat spring roll), lumpiang gulay (vegetable spring roll), roast chicken, and fruit salad with buko (coconut meat). Served with bubblies.
We had our 12 round fruits for "good luck", too.
We had another roast poultry, chicken this time, cooked using Julia Child's method:
Here's what I started to do for 2010…well, those that I could share in public:
1. I committed to posting a photo a day for Project 365 for Food Bloggers. This is going to be a good exercise for daily photo upload and seeing what everybody else is eating, cooking, or taking photos of.
2. I'm participating in the Ten in 10 Healthy Challenge where I made a 10-week commitment to make these healthy changes in my life: eat more balance meals (including eating breakfast, which I almost always skip), get into a regular running routine, and finish my Couch to 5K program (well, I am on the 12-week plan, but I would like to finish the bulk of it, health permitting).

Trump Still Open to Independent Run for White House
If Republican Party leaders fear an independent presidential run by Donald Trump, the real-estate tycoon sees no reason to assuage their concerns.
The debate he hopes to moderate for the conservative website NewsMax is having a hard time getting off the ground. Republican front-runner Newt Gingrich has said he would join, as has former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum. Mr. Gingrich's main rival, Mitt Romney, has declined, as have former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr., Texas Gov. Rick Perry, Rep. Ron Paul and, as of Friday, Rep. Michele Bachmann.
Mr. Trump, appearing on Fox Business Network, conceded Friday he may have to scrap the whole thing.
Mr. Trump thinks he knows why so few are taking up his offer: Unless he promises not to mount an independent White House run, the Republican Party won't play in his sand box.
In a press release on Friday, Mr. Trump said he wouldn't bow to such concerns.
"It is very important to me that the right Republican candidate be chosen to defeat the failed and very destructive Obama administration,'' he wrote. "But if that Republican, in my opinion, is not the right candidate, I am unwilling to give up my right to run as an Independent candidate."
Mr. Trump continued: "I must leave all of my options open because, above all else, we must make America great again!" (exclamation point is the Donald's)
Mr. Trump tends to become more vocal when he's got a new book to sell, and true to form, he does.
"Be sure to stop by Trump Tower today–I'll be signing copies of my new book `Time To Get Tough' from 11 am to 2 pm," he announced on Twitter Friday morning.
Correction: Donald Trump appeared on Fox Business Network. An earlier version of this post incorrectly reported he appeared on Fox Business News.

Effective TB Interviewing for Contact Investigation: Self-Study Modules
Return to Module 1 Table of Contents
This module covered the components of the TB interview for contact investigation. It stated the objectives of the interview, the first and most important of which is contact identification. Additional points included
- Explanation of the interview as an individualized exchange of information;
- Importance of formulating a strategy prior to conducting an interview;
- Identifying who should be interviewed;
- Determining an infectious period as a framework for the index patient in identifying contacts;
- Determining circumstances under which to use respiratory protection with an infectious index patient;
- The elements of the interview process, including:
- Pre-interview activities
- Introduction
- Information and education exchange
- Contact identification
- Conclusion; and
- Utilizing the re-interview process to confirm information and obtain additional information.
The TB interview process can be challenging, even for the most experienced interviewer. The interviewer should be prepared to complete the objectives, but should anticipate a number of circumstances that can hinder this process. The patient should receive education, and an emphasis should be placed on confidentiality at the beginning of the interview, during the contact elicitation process, and as needed. Careful planning and ongoing assessment during the interview process can ease any challenges.

Maurice described the series of problems that the Unix and Internet mail gateways had experienced over the previous one-and-a-half weeks. Starting mid-week in the previous week, a runaway process on a machine in Materials Sciences produced a ping flood that overloaded the campus router, resulting in the inability of that hardware to handle Internet traffic to and from campus. That problem was resolved within four or five hours and traffic resumed to its normal flow. Late in that week, we received notification that Jove may have had its security compromised and after checking the system, we could not detect any problems although implemented extra security checking over the weekend. Early the next week, however, we found evidence that unauthorized person(s) had obtained root access to Jove and to prevent further compromises, brought Jove down to re-install the operating system and thus wipe out any possible Trojan horses, etc.
Upon completing that task and installing additional security traps, we attempted to restart Jove but discovered bad memory in the machine that prevented the successful reboot of the system. Sun service came to make repairs but brought the wrong type of memory and had to return late in the day. The memory replacement didn't solve the probem, however, since it was discovered that there was a bad controller board in the machine. Eventually, it took Sun two controller boards and a day-and-a-half to get the machine running.
When Sun replaced the controller boards, they reversed the order of the disk cabling to the two controllers so when the system disk was re-formatted in order to reinstall the OS, the wrong disk was affected. That error further resulted in delays in getting Jove back on line since it wasn't discovered until Marc St.-Gil was recalled from his vacation in Colorado.
Because of the security breach, other central Unix systems were brought down, including Sol (the research machine,) and Calliope (the central Web server.) While we originally suspected that Calliope had been compromised as well, further investigating could not find any evidence that it had been affected by the hackers, so it was brought back on line. At the time of the DCSMT meeting, the Jove disk array that had been mistakenly reformatted was being restored from tape.
Because of the large number of undeliverable mail messages destined to Jove while it was down, the SMTP gateway was either slowed down to a fraction of its normal speed or crashed completely and had to be periodically rebooted. That affected the delivery of Groupwise Internet mail, and thus that mail delivery system was prevented from communicating with the outside world. A temporary workound for the problems with the SMTP gateway had been installed and mail was flowing between it and the Groupwise gateway, although not as fast as normal.
Tim Christian volunteered his services, along with Duane Gustavas', to help in architecting a better mail delivery system that would help prevent future problems such as the one(s) just encountered. Mike Hatch reported that he had been able to get his Pegasus mail server to deliver mail by pointing to a Kansas State gateway and Mike suggested that we work on making arrangements with outside agencies to do similar things when problems occurred.
Maurice reported that the Desktop Applications Standardization subcommittee had met and had modified the original draft "standards" by changing the title to "guidelines", plus including an option for each distributed area to make its own decision about the implementation of WordPerfect products. Also, the recommendation of Microsoft Access as a preferred DBMS was changed to say that it may not be appropriate for individual desktop use because of its complexity.
Jim Curry reported that the Call Tracking subcommittee had decided that the Remedy Action Request System best met UNT's needs for call tracking after examining Clientele, Apriori, several Lotus Notes applications, SA Expert, Vendata Heat, Intel Landesk, and the option of developing a system in-house. The committee found Remedy to be the most flexible, could be obtained at a mid-range price (between $30K and $80K,) and could be tied into other campus systems such as the paging system.
Tim Christian enumerated the following benefits from adopting a campus-wide call tracking system:
The preliminary plans for implementing Remedy are to form an implementation team with Tim Christian as the project leader and Chris Strauss as the technical support person for the management of the product. Tim outlined a tentative time line for bringing the product up and after discussion the DCSMT members decided that January or February of 1998 would be a feasible target date to have a full rollout of the system. The Computing Center has agreed to fully fund the purchase of the hardware, software, and initial training necessary to bring the system up: that cost will be in the range of $100,000 over a three-year period.
Tim announced that his planning document for the rollout could be found at http://www.cascss.unt.edu/calltrax. After additional discussion, Maurice called for a vote on whether Remedy would be adopted by each distributed computing support area as a campus-wide system and the attendees voted unanimously to approve that adoption. In addition, the following persons signed a document that stated "Yes, I do buy into Remedy!:" Tom Newell (HSC,) Craig Berry, Tim Christian, MIke Wright, Chris Strauss, Dallas Newell, Mike Hatch, Allen Bradley, Ginger Boone, Kelly Wood, Ramu Muthiah, Robert Pierce, Curtis Hort, Paul Hons, Richard Harris, and Maurice Leatherbury.
Jim Curry reported that MicroMaintenance was now supporting internal-only Zip drives, both IDE and SCSI, and internal-only SCSI Jaz drives.
The meeting adjourned at 3:45.

Gold Coast 2018 chairman sacked in row over Athletes' Village
May 6 - Mark Stockwell has been sacked as the chairman of the Gold Coast 2018 Organising Committee despite being the driving force behind the city's successful bid for the Commonwealth Games.
The new Liberal National Party (LNP) State Government, who won the election six weeks ago, confirmed the new Board would not include Stockwell, a former swimmer who won three medals at the 1984 Los Angeles, two silver and a bronze.
The 48-year-old Stockwell is now a successful property developer but he has reportedly clashed with the new Government over where to build the Athletes' Village for the Games.
He wanted to locate it Parklands, an area of the city that includes pavilions, showgrounds and function areas.
But there was opposition to the plan from the Gold Coast Harness Racing Club, the Gold Coast Show Society and Big Day Out organisers, who wanted the Village relocated.
New Commonwealth Games Minister Jann Stuckey now appears to have backed their concerns.
Announcing that Stockwell will be replaced she said it was time to "transition to a Board that has the confidence of the Government, the [Australia] Commonwealth Games Association, and the public".
Stuckey added: "To ensure that these Games are delivered on time, and importantly on budget, the LNP Newman Government needs to put in place a Board that will quickly get on with the major infrastructure planning and delivery of this billion-dollar event.
"What is needed now for the Gold Coast Games are well-credentialed people who have qualifications in law, finance, development, and the commercial sector along with prominent sporting people who can make a significant contribution in the building and operations of the Games.
"The composition of Commonwealth Games Board is crucial and the Government is working hard to strike the right balance."

Well, at least this is early in the piece. Might have been a bit awkward to be shuffling deckchairs closer to the event.

I am still a beginner to java and I have a question on an efficient way to pass in parameters. When passing in objects in a method is it more efficient to pass in portions of an object or does it not matter at all? for example, lets say I have a Person object which has several attributes (name, height, gender, location, hairColor etc.) and I have a method which needs to work on two of these attributes. When I pass the info into the method, does it save me memory, process time etc to only pass in the needed info (like name and location) or is it the same as just passing in the whole person object?
public void getNamePlace(String name, String location){
\\\\work here
any different efficiency-wise than:
public void getNamePlace(Person person){
\\\\work here and get the name location in the method
Thanks a lot for the help. I'm sorry if it is a dumb question but I'm trying to figure out the best mentality to approach this. Thank you.
p.s. I am thinking more on the method call itself. How does it work. In isolation, is:
public void getNamePlace(String name, String Location) --> More bits passed around and memory used than --> public void getNamePlace(Person person)

Paradise. Early morning runs on cool, soft sand while the sunrise lights the beach in the most beautiful shades of lavender, peach, and orange. Breakfast – fresh fruits and juices – outside, listening to the sound of birds and wind blowing through palm leaves. Laughing like a kid while splashing in the ocean waves with friends and island dogs. Sand in your hair. Sunset surf sessions. Collapsing into a hammock with the glow of the sun still emanating from your cheeks, exhausted and happy from the day.
These behind the scenes images from our May catalog bring all of these thoughts of paradise to life… and next week, many of us will get to experience it ourselves with the Pura Vida getaway. I, on the other hand, will just have to live vicariously through these photos :).

Mathews and Ross heat
It appears that there might be some backstage heat between Josh Mathews, who is now the lead commentator for TNA, and Jim Ross. The two of them engaged in an awkward discussion through social media about UFC going up against the NFL on Sunday night. Mathews took a jab at Ross for being old and instructed him to walk away from the limelight. Ross even noted that he was not expecting such comments from Mathews.

ATLANTA - One of Atlanta's newest restaurant has now been named one of America's best.
The Optimist, on Atlanta's West Side, has been named the nation's best new restaurant of the year by Esquire Magazine, in their November issue.
The Optimist is the brainchild of Chef Ford Fry, who brought JCT Kitchen and No. 246 to locals inside the Perimeter, and has two new restaurants - one in Buckhead and one in the new Avalon development in Alpharetta-expected to open within the next year and a half.
Fresh seafood is brought in daily from both coasts to provide a unique seafood experience for patrons.
Esquire calls The Optimist a "soaring, convivial spot" with a "hopping oyster bar shaped like a surfboard, a first-rate cocktail program and seafood cooked with old-school expertise over a wood fire." The review also says the restaurant is a "resounding local success."
Big on the freshness of the seafood, it'll transport diners to the coast with its menu and atmosphere. You'll almost forget that you're in the middle of Atlanta.

Comments about Nike Zoom Victory Elite Track and Field Shoe:
The metal thread plate that hold the spikes broke/cracked on the back two spikes after 4 meets (1 indoor and 3 outdoor). Had to change shoes after 1st race (800 meters) of the 4th meet. One spike was bent over sideways. These shoes were a Christmas gift so I'm past the 90 day return policy after 4 meets. The carbon fibor plate on the bottom is what resulted in the break. Had they been the Victory 2s made out of a rubber compound it would have flexed back into shape. It's unknown why the spike was bent over as these shoes have never touched anything but the track. I take them off as soon as the race is over in order to try and protect them (because of cost). I want to give them another shot, but if I can't exchnage them, then I will have to go back to the Victory 2s. I've been running with the Victory shoes for 5 years now and this is the first time I've had a problem with them.

Delivery was prompt, according to my Father, who purchased them for me as a Christmas gift.

The Lausanne Global Conversation (LGC) is an opportunity for Christians around the globe to wrestle with important issues related to world evangelization, in connection with Cape Town 2010, the Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization. One of these issues is surely the prosperity gospel. Termed pejoratively as the gospel of health and wealth by its critics, it has surely been controversial for various reasons.
Of course, this gospel of prosperity is not a new phenomenon. One of its most direct antecedents especially in North America, and certainly its most influential genealogical stream, can be traced through the charismatic renewal and the Latter Rain revival movements of the mid-twentieth century back to the teachings of popular writers like Essek W. Kenyon, among others. Particularly in this broad tradition, prosperity was considered not just in financial terms but also in relationship to bodily health (hence the label "health and wealth"). Kenyon's teachings, as mediated through Latter Rain personalities like William Marion Branham and charismatic leaders like Oral Roberts, Kathryn Kuhlman, Kenneth Hagin, and Kenneth Copeland, among many others, have not only informed the scope of discursive practices that have fueled the spreading of the prosperity message across the global south in the last generation, but also been the source of many critical assessments of the theology of prosperity.
The pervasiveness of the prosperity theme around the world is also surely another reason for its contemporary notoriety. Yet because the notion of prosperity has been especially prevalent among churches associated with the global renewal movement, it is very difficult to make reliable generalizations. One the one hand, prosperity features prominently in fairly traditional Pentecostal churches like the Redeemed Christian Church of God which is based in Nigeria but has missionary congregation practically around the world; on the other hand, prosperity is also central to new and independent churches emergent from out of the charismatic renewal movement like the Brazilian based but also globally present Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus (Universal Church of the Reign of God). And if things weren't already complicated enough, there is also the phenomenon of prosperity among groups like El Shaddai Ministries, a major aspect of the burgeoning Roman Catholic charismatic renewal in the Philippines. As representative of the diversity of the global renewal movements, these churches and organizations also illuminate the pluralistic shades of prosperity embraced by Christians around the world. But cumulatively, they represent an irreducibly complex mix of sociological, economic, political, and historical factors, all interwoven with the ongoing task of meaning-making that is central to spiritual pursuit and the religious life.
Back in the North American context, the prosperity gospel continues to thrive, although simultaneously morphing according to the shape of its carriers. The emergence of mega-churches – most of which cut across racial and ethnic lines – that provide for middle and upper-middle class respectability means that prosperity preaching is now much more subtly communicated and received. To be sure, there remain televangelistic ministries which promulgate blatant forms of especially the wealth message as well to their followers. Inevitably exposés and scandals following well-known personalities inflame public opinion, and rightly so.
Over the next few months, I would like to invite readers into a theological conversation about these many faces of prosperity. To do so, I will present and develop a typology of theological responses. I will present these sequentially and allow the discussion to go where it may. Toward the end of the year, perhaps on the eve of the Cape Town meeting, we will step back to take theological stock of our options. Welcome to the conversation.
关键词: prosperity gospel, charismatic, theology, poverty, wealth, global, renewal movement
I appreciate your drawing attention to the subtlety of the megachurches as a form of the prosperity movement. People who drive luxury vehicles with GPS units find it difficult to hear they are poor and lost!
It is difficult to square the wealth and health of the prosperity gospel with the rampant poverty, injustice and persecution of many of God's people. In the end it marginalizes and oppresses millions of people who need to hear the Gospel.
It has always seemed clear to me that prosperity teachings are off center. In the movie Apollo 13, they needed to keep the earth in the little window. They had to keep it centered in the window to get home. Christ is in our window and if we keep Him the focus and center than we too will find ourselves home. Jesus said that we will have trials and tribulations. He said to align ourselves to His Kingdom and all other things will be added. I believe He decides the resources that we receive. I believe that He knows the seasons of plenty come and when they go. I believe our prosperity is described in John 17... our relationship with the Father and being found in Him. Our wealth and health is the humble submission to His love. And apart from His love anything that we say or do is quite empty and quite poor and quite ill. Our message is Hope, our gospel is Peace, our calling is Love.
I am reminded of a ministry trip I took to Haiti a few years ago. I was faced with abject poverty all around me and then in a local church, hearing the prosperity gospel being preached to some of the worlds most poor people. I was horrified to see the congregations response to this. I will never forget it.

There's a lot of noise out there regarding film school on where to go or whether it's worth it. Plenty of aspiring directors pay attention to where the modern giants of independent cinema went, whether they gained something from it (Darren Aronofsky at AFI), left it after finding it inadequate (Paul Thomas Anderson at NYU), or skipped it altogether (Quentin Tarantino). But sometimes it's more valuable to hear from new directors who are just starting to make names for themselves, given how recently some of them left or avoided film school.
With that in mind, here's what this year's Tribeca Film Festival directors had to say about the subject (gleaned from questionnaires we sent to the filmmakers in advance of the festival).
You'll note that while NYU and Columbia are well represented below, many of the filmmakers attended film school internationally (from Israel to France to Argentina) and a fair number of them took a handful of classes or didn't go to film school at all.
READ MORE: Get to Know the Tribeca Filmmakers
Justin Weinstein ("An Honest Liar")
"Went to NYU film school. Loved it but wanted to learn more about other things. I also love science and was on my way to becoming a scientist. I went on to get a PhD in Genetics (Columbia University), but decided I'd prefer to help communicate science rather than do the experiments. Much of my work has had a science component, but the type of scientific thinking I learned is actually extremely valuable for journalism and filmmaking."
Jeff Reichert and Farihah Zeiman ("This Time Next Year")
Talya Lavie ("Zero Motivation")
"After two years of studying in the Animation department of Bezalel Art Academy, I totally changed my direction and went to study filmmaking in the Sam Spiegel FIlm & Television School in Jerusalem. I graduated in 2006 and for the past three years I've been working there as a teacher."
Peter Strickland and Nick Fenton ("Bjork: Biophilia Live")
PS: "No. I tried to get into Reading University's Film & Drama department in 1992. I wrote an essay on Jack Smith and Stan Brakhage as part of my application, but I was rejected. That's probably the only rejection that I never got over."
NF: "Yes. I went to the National Film and Television School just outside London and studied editing."
Hans Petter Moland ("In Order of Disappearance")
"Yes, Emerson in Boston."
Courtney Cox ("Just Before I Go")
"No I didn't, but I took an online UCLA course on filmmaking."
Johanna Hamilton ("1971")
Lloyd Handwerker ("Famous Nathan")
"NYU Graduate Tisch School of the Arts. Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, N.Y."
Orlando von Einsiedel ("Virunga")
"Nope. I used to be a pro-snowboarder and learnt how to make films filming my friends snowboarding. Of course that doesn't prepare you for filming in conflict zones, which somehow I keep finding myself doing from Afghanistan to Ivory Coast."
Tristan Patterson ("Electric Slide")
"I graduated from Yale University, where I majored in American Studies and Film Studies. The film program was a lot of theory and a lot of Godard. I really loved it. I remember writing a very long paper on Paul Schrader's "Hardcore" about the complicity of subject and object in neo-noir cinema, or something like that. It focused on the scene where Peter Boyle takes George C. Scott into an adult-movie house in the red light district of Grand Rapids, Michigan and forces him to watch a porn film starring his missing daughter. I think I got a B+."
Juan Pablo Cadaveira ("Maravilla")
"I studied film production at the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. I was working as a camera man while going to film school. It helped me put into play what I was learning in books. One of the reasons this project was important to me was because Sergio wasn't recognized for his talent in Argentina. I wanted to document him and for people to know about his life, effort and greatness. I wanted Argentina to know they had a true champion."
Brin Hill ("In Your Eyes")
"Yessir. NYU graduate film school – which, when I was there, was a little like going to the film school of hard knocks what with the way Eastern European professors would tough love you. Had a great experience there --and at UCLA undergrad film-- but most importantly, learned to grow thick skin and stick to my vision -- two very valuable lessons in this crazy profession."
Alonso Ruizpalacios ("GUEROS")
"Nope. Tried to get into NYU, made it to the final interview but had a scary panic attack in mid-interview. The suits on the other side of the desk looked at me with puzzled faces and kindly showed me the door. Looking back on it now, I thank them. I don't think I would have enjoyed being in such a competitive place (drama school in London was more than enough of that for me). I went to a couple of lectures at NYU and Columbia and everyone seemed to me to be at each others' throats all the time, waiting for the others to trip up (at least that's how it seemed to me at the time -maybe I was just scared). Anyway, most of my favourite filmmakers didn't go to film school or were thrown out. So I guess in a way I'm proud to be among the "unschooled", film-wise."
Alan Hicks ("Keep on Keepin' On")
"No, I didn't go to film school. That's kind of why Ad and I had a bugger of a time trying to work things out at first. I feel like we blindly committed to making a film before we knew how to make a film. Our first year was like boot camp. We had to learn how to use the equipment and made some mistakes. Once the second year came around, we were really comfortable with following our gut and working out what was needed. It became more natural and we could focus on the story. Five years later, here we are."
Antonio Santini and Dan Sickles ("Mala Mala")
AS: "I didn't go to film school. I went to NYU Gallatin and studied the effects of technology on human communication and psyche. Also did some studies on the avant-garde and subcultures particularly in virtual spaces."
DS: "I went to NYU Tisch for Acting."
Lou Howe ("Gabriel")
"I went to AFI for directing."
Ivan Kavanagh ("The Canal")
"No, I'm self taught. I did consider it, but decided to use the money to shoot my first film instead."
Jesse Zwick ("About Alex")
"I did not, though I like to think of my recent experience as a sort-of unparalleled work-study opportunity."
Chris Messina ("Alex of Venice")
"I did not, but I have taken a great amount of acting classes. I've been lucky enough to study with some of the best teachers like Ron Van Lieu, Kim Gilllingham, Earle Gister, and Harold Guskin. By working with master teachers like these, I learned so much about script analysis and storytelling. I love the website Cinephilia and Beyond - each day there are incredible posts taking you through the process of your favorite films and filmmakers. This website was instrumental to me."
Ilmar Raag ("I Won't Come Back")
"Well, not really. Although I did theoretical film studies in Paris. But seems that it doesn't count?"
Bert Marcus ("Champs")
"I actually went to school for radio at the Thornton School of Music at the University of Southern California. When I was in high school, I got my first job working in radio with Clear Channel Communications. I began as an intern, but worked my way to producing radio shows, which I thought was incredibly fascinating. From meeting remarkable talent to hearing their stories on air, I began to cultivate relationships and think more broadly about storytelling, not just in a short interview, but also in a larger format. What would it be like to unearth the deeper thoughts and interviews of the talent? What if I was able to weave various stories? This was the start of my inspiration for documentary filmmaking."
Frederic Tcheng ("Dior and I")
"I went to Columbia University Film School. I had a great experience there. I met many filmmakers who are my friends now (like Jennifer Grausman who has a film in TIFF this year). Although we didn't study documentary filmmaking per se, we were taught the fundamentals of storytelling, which applies to non-fiction just as well as fiction."
Brent Hodge ("A Brony Tale")
"I didn't. I went to business school at University of Otago in New Zealand. I auditioned and got into the annual University Capping Show which was an entertainment variety show with live comedy and videos.. that's where my film director world began, and I've been waking up every day since and trying to earn that title. I really wanted to just own a business, and a film company seemed like a lot of fun, so I went for it."
Jimmy Goldblum and Adam Weber ("Tomorrow We Disappear")
"We were both English majors at the University of Pennsylvania. We're writers and neurotics, but on this film we teamed up with a lot of fantastic people from both the USC and NYU film programs."
Nicholas Mross ("The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin")
"Yes, I attended the Toronto Film School in Toronto, Canada. I really enjoyed the film program there and made great connections and friends with whom I continue to collaborate with on projects today."
Susanna Fogel ("Life Partners")
"I didn't! I studied English in college and approached filmmaking from a writing background, while trying to learn as much as I could about the technical side of things by making shorts and a webseries."
Kevin Gordon ("True Son")
"After working in film for a few years, I did decide to go to film school. I went to the Stanford Documentary Film Program which is one of the few MFAs exclusively dedicated to non-fiction film. They place a heavy emphasis on aesthetics and theory which is exactly what I was looking for. I ultimately met the producers of this film there which is how I became connected with this project."
Andrew Renzi ("Fishtail")
"I didn't go to film school, I went to Brown University for writing and Literary Arts."
Jessica Yu ("Misconception")
"No, learned on the job. Still learning on the job. Sometimes the same lesson repeatedly."
Victor Levin ("5 to 7")
"Just a summer of Sight & Sound at NYU, which was invaluable. Would have loved to go to film school, but I was a writer first and I needed to work. You learn on every set you step onto, as long as you're not afraid to ask questions and seem like an idiot. It's a terrifying way to educate yourself, though."
Alastair Orr ("Indigenous")
"I went to film school in South Africa. But I almost had to re-educate myself when I left. You don't want to be told what movies you should and shouldn't be making. I wanted to make horror films and apparently that was too close to home for my educators."
One9 ("Time Is Illmatic")
"No, I didn't go to film school. I created my own major called 'Visual Communications' and received a BA through the Individual Study's Program at the University of Maryland (College Park)."
"I went to NYU. I'm a Tischie. BFA in Film/TV Production. Class of '08."
Tyler Meason ("An Honest Liar")
"I did a couple of years of college, but not film school. I was something of an autodidact in the film world. I read every book I could get my hands on and religiously watched thousands of movies. At the age of 17 I talked my way onto a film set and started working in essentially all film departments for another ten years. This granted me the opportunity to learn the art of directing and producing by watching others. It also allowed me to steal as much equipment as I could fit under my shirt when it was time for me to make my own film."
Jordan Rubin ("Zombeavers")
"I did not go to film school, no. I went to NYU, though. And I smoked so much weed in my dorm room while watching Kubrick movies that I feel like I have an honorary film school degree. Come to think of it, I was so high during college that I may have gone to Tisch. The jury's still out."
Andrew Betzer ("Young Bodies Heal Quickly")
"Yes, I went to University of Maryland Baltimore County (aka UMBC, aka University of Maryland's Bastard Child)."
David Lascher ("Sister")"
No. My writing/producing partner Todd Camhe went to grad school at NYU/Tisch."
Jody Lipes ("Ballet 422")
Angus MacLachlan ("Goodbye To All That")
"No. I went to the University of North Carolina School of the Arts in the Visual Arts Dept. for high school, and graduated with a BFA from the Acting Program. In 2010 they gave me an Honorary Doctorate. So if there's an arts emergency, I'm prepared to answer the call."
Sabine Lubbe Bakker and Niels van Koevorden ("Ne Me Quitte Pas")"Sabine did not.
Niels went to the Film Academy in Amsterdam."
Garrett Bradley ("Below Dreams")
"UCLA school of Theater Film and Television. I made my first film when I was 16 and realized at that point that I'd found something I could really speak through. I studied philosophy as a undergrad and went to film school so I could get a grip on the tradition.
There's an ongoing debate about the importance of film school and I think if you aren't independently wealthy or you don't have seven friends willing to run around with you, or you don't have access to cameras…then film school serves a really important purpose. And in terms of process, in terms of finding yourself as a filmmaker, it helps to have something to define yourself by. I think that's why so many of us feel so frustrated at a certain point…I think that frustration indicates that the program is working. The rules are giving you something you define yourself against…or by. I think I've found a really nice balance between the impressionistic style I taught myself in high school, and the traditions I learned as an official student."
Onor Tukel ("Summer of Blood")
"I studied Radio, Television and Journalism at UNC-Chapel Hill."

Quantum Energetics as complementary therapy?
- Question from Ann: I am a stage IV patient with mets in bones and mediastinal area. I am doing research on Quantum Energetics as a complementary therapy. Have you heard of this?
- Answers - Dan Benor All of the bioenergy approaches in the spectrum of spiritual healing can be helpful with pain, depression, and anxiety, and, as I mentioned before, decreasing side effects of medication. They can help with sleep, and with opening into spiritual awareness, which is something we are all challenged with as we face the possibility of approaching the end of our lives.
On Wednesday, October 20, 2004, our Ask-the-Expert Online Conference was called Complementary and Holistic Techniques. Dan Benor, M.D.,Larry Lachman, Psy.D., and moderator Jennifer Griggs, M.D., M.P.H. answered your questions about the various complementary and holistic treatments that may benefit those with breast cancer.

Some favorite photos from Trey Ratcliff at http://www.StuckInCustoms.com
This photo is one of my favorites from my street-series in Tokyo. It's so delightfully strange, I think! I felt lucky to get the focus right at f/1.4 with the 50mm when I took it. I had a general idea of exactly how far people need to be when I take these sorts of photos. It's all manual focus — and I generally find that I get much better street photography photos when I am in the manual focus mode.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

The Bachelor
Bachelor's Jamie Otis Dating Ready For Love's Ben Patton: New Couple Alert!
The Bachelor 16's Jamie Otis has a new Ben in her life, Life & Style is reporting — Ready For Love star Ben Patton! And what's more, the two have a ton in common: They're both brunet cuties, both work in the healthcare industry, and both failed to find love on reality television. Practically a match made in heaven.
So just how did the NYC-based Jamie meet Texas hospital CEO Ben? Ummm on Facebook, the greatest matchmaker of the modern age. "He friended me on Facebook. So 21st century of him. From there, we started chatting and we've been actively talking," Jamie tells the magazine.
Although Ben proposed to his matchmaker-chosen lady, Angela Zapotek, on the RFL finale, things didn't work out, and the two broke up before it ever aired. Jamie vied for Ben Flajnik's love on The Bachelor before being eliminated in Episode 6.
"I was never really into him," Jamie says of the other Ben, who ended up choosing Courtney Robertson in the finale, before the two of them eventually broke up as well. "We're two different people. I like him as a person, but it was never there."
Next, Jamie appeared on Bachelor Pad 3, where she had a short showmance with Chris Bukowski before he, too, moved on to someone(s) else.
So, what makes these two reality TV alumni think things will work out? "He owns a hospital, so we joke about that," Jamie spills. "He tells me I'm so good with patients and with him, I'd always have a place to work!"
Uh, that's one way to find a job... We're happy for Jamie and Ben and hope that things pick up for them. Maybe producers of Ready For Love, which was canceled moments after it began, shouldn't have spent so much time trying to not be The Bachelor. Especially if the perfect girl for the RFL star was there in the ABC casting department archives all along...
