Any time industry leaders and stakeholders are brought together great strides can be made toward accomplishing mutual goals. The Los Angeles Better Buildings Challenge (LABBC) provided a platform to do just that during its Third Annual Building Technology Showcase, where leading technology companies gave fast-pitch presentations on the best energy and water solutions available in the marketplace to the LABBC's network of property owners, property managers, and contractors.
The showcase, co-hosted by LACI, the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, the City of Los Angeles, and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, represented a breadth of technology experts with presentations ranging from water recycling and water metering to building controls to cooling tower solutions. Each expert presented their technology's features and applications as well as average energy and cost savings, ROIs, rebates, and successful case studies. Networking after the presentations led to a number of productive connections.

Rotary drive device consists of turntable, slewing ring and back to the color structure and other components, slewing bearing outer ring bolts and turntable coupling, with teeth of the inner ring and chassis with bolts, between the inner and outer race with rolling body. The vertical load, leveling load and overturning moment acting on the turntable of the excavator are passed through the slewing ring, the rolling element and the inner race are passed to the chassis. The housing of the back-to-back is stabilized on the turntable and meshed with the ring gear on the slewing ring bearing. The slewing bearing and the turntable structure of the lower rotary drive are described below.
One, slewing support
Excavator rotary support is adopted by rolling bearing slewing ring, Komatsu hydraulic excavator is adopted cylindrical rotary bearing, rotary local corner is usually equal to or less than 180. It is formed by welding the upper and lower support shafts on the rotary body and the upper and lower bearing seats. The bearings are bolted to the frame and rotated through the hydraulic motor mounted on the support shaft.
Second, the turntable structure
Hydraulic excavator occupation when the upper part of the turntable self-love and load the seat is constantly changing, and biased towards the load direction. For the balance load torque, the turntable of the various devices need to arrange, and in the tail to install the weight to improve the lower structure of the turntable force, reduce the loss of slewing ring to protect the stability of the machine.
The main bearing part of the turntable rotary drive is a box-shaped structure with a large torsion and bending rigidity welded by a steel plate. The main frame, boom and its hydraulic cylinder are supported on the lug of the main girder.

35 Weeks & 35 More Days
B would prefer anytime after Nov 5… he has a test that day!
Your little belly looks like mine, I LOVE it!! can't wait to hear what the doc says next week! have a great weekend, hopefully you get better rest 🙂
Feel better and rest up! 🙂 You and B sound just like Aric and hoping that Aidan would wait until after 2/26… we all know how that ended! Note to Little Miss, "Try not to be naughty like your boyfriend, wait until 11/6 at least! Can't wait to meet you!" :p
You look fabulous!! It won't be long now. 🙂
I just want to rub your belly!!
I can't wait to meet the little girl… I guess the contractions are getting you ready for the big day 🙂
I hope that your cold goes away and that you are feeling better! And have a GREAT weekend!!
Wow, all of a sudden you're 8 months along!! Crazy, right? I feel so redundant saying this, but you really look so amazingly cute 😀 Have a great weekend!!
Katie I soo feel like I'm in the same place as you right now! the last couple of weeks have been so HARD! I think that me packing and being on my feet so much doesn't help either. Sleep has been awful and I've been having contractions, pelvic and lower abd pain galore! Part of me would want her to come around 37 weeks because I feel so miserable and I know it will only get worse, but then part of me would just rather have her cook in there for a while because I still have about a billion things to do!
Anyway, you are looking so very cute! I think your belly just popped even more this week! And how cool is it that you only have 35 days left! Gosh, we're so close!
I hope you feel better! I can't wait to meet Little Miss!
I hope you feel better. Story hasn't been sick or anything, but hopefully you didn't get something from her. 🙁 Anyway, enjoy resting up!

I ordered two sets of these ugly Christmas sweater ornaments from the Animal Rescue Site in hopes that they will fit petite Barbie or other similar-size dolls. The price when ordered of $4.99 was reduced from $14.95 (the buy link is near the end of this post). They are described as:
- Set of 2
- Wool
- 3" L x 7.5" W (7.6 x 19.1 cm)
- Handmade in & fairly traded from Nepal
|Modeling Christmas sweater ornaments from various sources: (in back, L-R) Nikki's sweater is from Christopherandbanks.com. Dasia and Anika's sweaters are from a local Michaels store, and (seated) Goddess Emerald's sweater is from Jafgifts.com.
- The ones purchased from Michaels in 2015 measure 4" L x 9" W -- they run a little large on Barbie but fit nicely on Big Beautiful Doll Dasia.
- The ones purchased from Christopher and Banks in 2015 and 2016 measure 3-1/2" L x 7-1/2" W.
Based on this comparison, the most recently ordered ones from the Animal Rescue Site might run a little short on regular height and tall Barbie. Petite Barbie and even smaller dolls should be able to wear them. I will know after they arrive. Here is the buy link:
I will write a followup post after they arrive if any of my dolls can wear these (keeping my fingers crossed they can). If not, their intended purpose (as ornaments or gifts) is a suitable option.
Thank you for reading. Was this post helpful?

SPRINGFIELD, Mass.. – In the midst of playing three games in three days the Stevenson men's volleyball team found themselves on the losing end of a 3-0 decision to topped-ranked Springfield College on Friday night in the opening round of the International Volleyball Hall of Fame Morgan Classic at the Blake Arena hosted by Springfield College
Stevenson (4-5), had their two-match winning streak stopped dropping the match by set scores of 25-18, 25-16, and 25-19. The loss was the first suffered by the Mustangs since January 19 when the fell at the hands of then third-ranked SUNY New Paltz.
Junior Landon Shorts led the way for Stevenson with eight kills, team-high four digs, and three aces hitting .148. Freshman Logan Smiley chipped five kills, a solo block and added a dig. While junior Jason Gardner contributed six kills and a block on the night. Rookie Aleks Melbardis dished out a team-high 13 assists.
Springfield (10-1), was paced by Sergio Figueroa Velez with a game-high 12 kills, nine digs, and three blocks with a .450 attack percentage. Sean Zuvich added 11 kills, seven digs, and two blocks to the cause. Billy De La Espriella, Ricardo Padilla Ayala, and Kyle Jasuta each posted four kills. Mike Neary was in a sharing mood handing out 34 assists.
The two sides opened the match by sharing the first four points, as a kill from senior Alex Klunk tied the score 2-2. Springfield then went on a 4-1 push going up 6-3 with the only Mustang point in that run coming from a Gardner kill. With Stevenson down 10-6, a service error by Jasuta put Shorts on the service line and aided by two aces and a kill from Smiley the Mustangs grabbed their first lead of the set at 11-10. However, the streak of visiting team points lit a fire under the host Pride as they seven of the next eight points to take a 17-12 edge. The teams exchanged points the rest of the frame, but Stevenson could not get the lead under four. A kill from Joseth Irizarry took the first 25-18.
Set number two saw the Pride jump out to a 4-1 lead. The Mustangs settled things down quickly and took the following two points off a Shorts kill and a home attack error pulling the margin to 4-3. Once again Springfield would not let the guests get in front taking three of the next four going in front 7-4. Stevenson crawled back to within one, 7-6 after a pair of Pride attack errors. Three straight for the home side opened the edge back up to four 10-6. The Mustangs snagged five of the ensuing ten points on kills from Gardner and Smiley, an ace from Klunk, and two Pride errors to cut the lead by one to 14-11. Springfield bumped the advantage to 17-11 with kills from Velez and Zuvich. Splitting the next four points did little to bring Stevenson back into the set as the lead stayed at six 19-13. The home side outscored the visitors 6-3 down the stretch to take the second 25-16.
Springfield started the third set the way they opened the second taking an early 4-1 edge. A kill from Gardner and an ace from freshman Garrett Weigel capped a 3-1 push to get the Mustangs to down by one at 5-4. The Pride answered the Stevenson run with one of their own using a 9-2 stretch to take a 14-6 lead. In this set of runs, the visitors took five of the next seven points getting kills from Gardner, Melbardis, and Weigel to trim the deficit to 16-11. The streaks continued with Springfield going on a 6-2 run making it 22-13. The Mustangs were determined to grab a set against the top-ranked team in the nation with kills from Gardner, Shorts, and Weigel bringing the score to 24-19. However, it would not be enough as a service error from Shorts ended the set and the match 25-19.
The Mustangs as a team hit .081 on 25 kills, while Springfield hit an impressive .530 and totaled 41 kills. At the service line, Stevenson held the edge with seven aces with the Pride picking up three. The home side had a decisive advantage in the blocking game racking up 15 to the guests three.
The Mustangs will wrap up their three day-three match road trip tomorrow Saturday, February, 10 when they play in the consolation match of the International Volleyball Hall of Fame Morgan Classic against Division I Harvard University at Springfield College. First serve between the Mustangs and the Crimson is set for 6pm.

Freedom of Expression Committee
Be Heard at the April 5th Faculty Council Meeting Campaign
The Faculty Council (FC, 33 - member body) will meet at 10am on Thursday April 5th in room 080 (basement) of Gendron Hall.
FEC member Severin is an elected FC member and he has forced (via a long battle...) SCI 2101 onto the agenda.
The FC is an OPEN meeting, open to all. All supporters are encouraged to come and witness institutional resistance and
close-mindedness first hand. There is no reason that this course cannot be discussed and approved but the Faculty executives
are doing everything they can to block it.
300 have signed a petition to have this second-year activism course and the SFUO is considering an official endorsement.
Below is one of many communications that shows what the fight has been like so far...
Please come out to support Severin and Prof. Rancourt in presenting this new course.

Dear Dr. Lalonde,
In our meeting of today, I believe that you, Acting Dean Dr. André Lalonde, have unethically used undue pressure against
me, Severin Stojanovic, a graduate student representative and full voting member of the Science Faculty Council.
In accordance with the Faculty of Science by-laws, and in a timely fashion, I requested to you that the following 3 items
appear as separate points on the Agenda for the next Faculty Council meeting, to be held on April 05, 2007:
(1) Discussion on the possible improvements to the pedagogical training graduate students receive. Many graduate students
have been placed in teaching posts (directed towards undergraduate students) within the Faculty of Science with little to
no pedagogical training, and have been left on their own to learn how to teach, with minimal guidance.
(2) Discussion of the possibility of a second-year "Science, Activism, and Society" course, SCI 2101. Given
the success of SCI 1101, Fall 2006, we would discuss the possibility of offering a second-year course that students and members
of the community have requested. Professor Denis Rancourt will be given the opportunity to present this proposal (see supporting
document) and answer questions.
(3) Discussion on the mandate and procedures of operation of the Undergraduate Programs Committe, also known as the Faculty
Curriculum Committe (FCC).
I was given illegitimate reasons why my items (2) and (3) cannot appear on the Agenda, and told that they will not appear
on the agenda because of these reasons. My repeated objections to the response given me after my initial request is what led
up to our meeting of today.
The meeting was between myself and you, Dr. Lalonde, and took place in the Dean's office of the Faculty of Science, today,
Monday March 26, 2007. It commenced at approximately 12:00 noon, and concluded at approximately 12:20 pm. The meeting request
was initiated by you, and came via the e-mail appended below.
A summary of our meeting is appended below. I reject your false interpretations of the Faculty of Science by-laws. I reject
your position that recommendations of the Undergraduate Programs Committee can be used to veto discussion items at Faculty
I interpret your invitation for a second meeting with me as nothing more than a continuing attempt to subvert a full voting
member's legitimate instructions to have items added to the Faculty Council agenda.
Your actions can be interpreted as unethical. After receiving your enthusiastic response to and encouragement of my item
(1), I was unpleasantly surprised at your unfair treatment regarding items (2) and (3). I therefore cancel our follow-up meeting
that was scheduled for March 27, 2007, unless you assure me that my items will be included, as they must.
*** Summary of Meeting ***
I came to this meeting expecting one of two responses:
i. To be told that my requests were granted, or
ii. To be told that my requests were not to be granted, and be given
valid, legitimate reasons why not.
In this meeting, I clearly enunciated my position on this matter, and reiterated the by-laws to support such a position.
I was then told by you, that you did not interpret the by-laws in this manner; that my position was not "in the spirit
of the by-laws" and that "we are not lawyers." I then responded to you that "we indeed are not lawyers,
but we are not to engage in biblical-like exegesis of the by-laws, especially when the by-laws are clearly stated."
You then proceeded to affirm that you will follow the position of the Undergraduate Programs Committee, as if they were
an authoritative body within the University of Ottawa. You affirmed that there opinions on this matter were more binding and
resolute to that of a full voting member of the Faculty Council, a higher body than the Undergraduate Programs Committee.
I then proceeded to remind you that the by-laws clearly define an "academic unit" and that the mandate of the
Undergraduate Programs Committee is to deal with only "academic unit" proposals. You then proceeded to retrieve
a copy of the by-laws, which you merely placed at the table of our discussion and never proceeded to inquire within the by-laws
in order to address my point specifically.
While you were retrieving the by-laws, I said to you that at the Faculty Council meeting last year where there was a direct
vote on SCI 1984, then Dean Dr. Christian Detellier made very clear statements that SCI courses do not belong to any one academic
unit and that all future courses with an SCI course code are to be addressed directly by the Faculty Council. I then said
to you that it was a violation of the by-laws that SCI 1984, SCI 1101, and SCI 2101 were ever even considered by the Undergraduate
Programs Committee.
You agreed with me that courses with an SCI course code do not belong to any one academic unit, but reaffirmed your position
that it was in the Undergraduate Programs Committee mandate to address these courses.
You then suggested to me that if I want these items on the Agenda, that I request them at the beginning of the council
meeting, and that they would be voted upon at that time.
I refused. I added that not only will I not present my items only at the beginning of the council meeting, but that I
did not want them in the "other business" section of the Agenda. They are to appear as full-fledged items on the
Agenda, and my electronic attachments sent to you were to be printed and distributed to all Faculty Council members in advance
of the council meeting. I specifically said that I want council members to open their mailbox, look at the Agenda, and see
clearly that my items (2) and (3) appear as separate entries.
I then said to you that I felt intimidated having to defend myself unduly against my requests, at which I have gone to
great length in justifying my position.
You responded to me in an angry fashion, and with a louder tone said that "I feel intimidated by you." You stood
up, walked to your office door, and motioned to me to leave your office, at the same time saying "I would like you to
You paused for a moment, reconsidered what you had just said, and decided to continue our discussion in a more polite
After volleying these issues back-and-forth a number of times, in which you repeatedly stated that you do not agree with
my interpretation of the by-laws, I stated to you that the reasons given to me for not putting items (2) and (3) on the agenda
in the manner I instructed, were bogus, ludicrous, and that you failed to show me your position legally.
I then said to you that "in the spirit of the by-laws" and "I interpret this and you interpret that"
were not legitimate, legal reasons to justify your position. I then asked you directly and up-front for a legal justification
of why my items (2) and (3) could not appear on the Agenda.
You responded, and I quote, "can we meet tomorrow?" You indicated that you need to "sleep on it,"
"think it over," and "consult with other people."
I understood these statements and this attitude to mean that you are considering using executive power to veto what appears
on the Agenda, and to allow the wishes of the Undergraduate Programs Committee to supersede that of a full voting member of
the Faculty Council.
I once again brought to your attention that recommendations of the Undergraduate Programs Committee can never be used
to veto discussion items at Faculty Council. The by-laws clearly define the mandate of the Undergraduate Programs Committee
as "to study," "to propose," and "to recommend" their findings to the Faculty Council.
I reiterated my position once more. You responded that you would like to think this over, and have a meeting with me the
following day.
We shook hands, then I left.
*** End of Summary ***

Can I talk to you today or tomorrow about this?

Objet : Re: faculty council agenda items
Hello Dr. Lalonde,
Dealing specifically with my item (2):
"The Faculty of Science oversees the operations of five departments,
namely Biology, Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Mathematics and Statistics, and
Physics, as well as of the Biochemistry program. Further, it oversees the
functioning of interdisciplinary programs, including Biopharmaceutical
Sciences (BPS), Biomedical Sciences (BIM), and Environmental Sciences
(EVS). This list may change in time as new programs are added and others
Together, these departments and programs form the academic units of the
Faculty of Science."
Now, Art.III-3.1
(b) specifically states (my comments added in paranthesese):
"The mandate of this committe (the Undergraduate Programs Committee (aka
the Faculty Curriculum Committee, FCC)) is to study all changes,
deletions, and new offerings of courses submitted by the academic units, and to make recommendations concerning them to
the Faculty Council;"
Technically, SCI 1984, SCI 1101, and SCI 2101 do not fall under
the jurisdiction of the FCC. Art.I-1.1 clearly defines "academic unit".
The FCC is mandated to deal with ONLY academic unit proposals, as clearly
indicated in Art.III-3.1 (b). None of the courses SCI 1984, SCI 1101, and SCI 2101, belong to any academic unit, they
were not presented by any academic unit, and therefore MUST be presented directly to and addressed directly by the Faculty
Council. The proposal of SCI 2101 to the FCC was, technically, a violation of the by-laws.
There is absolutely no reason why my item (2) cannot appear on the agenda.
> Hello Dr. Giordano,
> Thank you for my request concerning item (1).

Ria Pratt Kim Noble
Ria Pratt Kim Noble
London, United Kingdom
About Ria Pratt Kim Noble
Ria has DID and is one of Kim Noble's personalities. From the age of 14 years old Ria has spent 20 years in and out of hospital until she made contact with Dr Valerie Sinason and Dr Rob Hale at the Tavistock and Portman Clinics. 10 years ago she began therapy and was diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder (formally multiple personality disorder). D.I.D is a creative way to cope with unbearable pain. The main personality splits into several parts each having an amnesic barrier between them. It is a conventional disorder but Ria has had extensive tests over 2 years by leading psychology professor at UCL, John Morton , who has established there is no memory between the personalities and that she represents the British gold standard over genuine Dissociation. With no formal art training, Ria and 12 of her personalities (alters) became interested in painting in 2004 after spending a short time with an art therapist. These 12 artists each have their own distinctive style, colour and themes, ranging from solitary desert scenes, to sea scenes to abstracts, collages and paintings with traumatic content. Many are unaware that they share a body with other artists. Ria's works takes you into the nightmare world of child abuse, depicted through the childs eyes, hence the bright colours. Many people can't face the truth of abuse and turn away, the use of very bright colours also makes the painting noticeable making the viewer look and see what happens, it is hard to miss. The patchy, ghost like figures floating above are depicting dissociation. When the pain gets too much the child looks down on themselves, believing that it isn't happening to them and watching from above. Trauma can cause out of body experience, dissociation. The works of other alters can be seen under Kim Noble, Bonny Noble, Golden Dawn, Judy Ash, Patricia King, and M.J. http://www.flickr.com/photos/62206346@N08/sets/72157626474399453/detail/ www.KimNoble.com

First Flowers
There are hints of Spring beginning to appear. Birdsong is increasing, there's a bit of warmth in the sun and plants are reappearing. A sunny bank by the side of a west coast sea-loch still has the bleached look of winter, but shoots of Woodrush and Yellow flag are everywhere, and there's the occasional splash of brave colour where a Primrose (Primula vulgaris) is in flower.
It's such a welcome sight!

It makes you happy to be alive.ReplyDelete
There's daffodils out and skylarks singing here on the Isle of Lewis and an unprecedented four days of sunshine.
It certainly does Tony! Although the snowdrops have been out a while, I always consider them to be winter flowers. The dafodils and Primroses are such a welcome sign of SpringReplyDelete
Kind regards
Thank you taio,ReplyDelete
Primroses really are one of the prettiest of flowers! :o)

Daily Update
Posted by Faye Bell on March 13, 2015 at 20:17:09:
This year was the 80th Anniversary for the Florida Strawberry Festival! Although the weather didn't cooperate for the first three days, it didn't stop many people from spending at least one day at the Florida Strawberry Festival. The entertainment was super and most fans were not going to let the weather keep them from enjoying their favorite entertainers.
Do to some weather constraints, the crowds poured in for the last weekend with over 230,000 thousand people in attendance during the weekend. It was our understanding that all the strawberry shortcake locations on the grounds sold out of shortcake on the last day, and I am sure many people were disappointed they waited until the last day to "join the party".
Once again it was great to see so many of our friends and customers this year, and even seeing old classmates from high school I haven't seen for _?__ years. It was also so nice to see get to visit with the nurse who took care of Margaret Mitchell the night she was brought to Grady Memorial Hospital that fatal evening of August 16, 1949. Although Wilma is already 86 years old, she is such a precious lady and we hope to have her around for many more years.
So ... all of the more than 2,500 volunteers and all of us vendors, etc., can say we "Joined the Party" at the 2015 Florida Strawberry Festival!

The District's pushy Alpine Recreational Strategic Plan going against any common sense solutions to extreme recreation staging. It is in reality the Mountain Bike Plan up front and foremost. Watch this one take fire. It is a hot topic nobody wishes to discuss. It comes down to the Final Report next Monday, presented to Council. It is an Election issue catering to one very pushy self-interest group and not the community at large.
Hot! Ouch! Hot! Just say, "District Alpine Recreational Strategic Plan". Let's see what happens.

Porsche Club of America
Hi, I'm in the process of potentially buying a 1985 Carrera Targa. It's a euro spec and I'm told it's completely stock. Seller is claiming 231 HP. Seller is also saying that it is current for emissions.
1. When I look up the specs for the car in the US the HP is listed at 200hp not 231, is this because the euro spec cars had more HP or am I getting a modified 911 (a bad thing).
2. do you have any advice on the items i need to be concerned about or can you refer me to a website or book.
Model: 993 c4s, Year:1997, Mileage:41,000, Type of use:Street use onlyI am thinking of buying a 993 C2s or a c4s. What are the pros and cons one vs the other.
Model: 911 C2 Tip, Year:1995, Mileage:165000, Type of use:Street use onlyLooking for Tech details comparing the 964 RS America and the European 964 RS. Planning a new street / track "project" Any referrals appreciated
Model: Carrera, Year:1989, Mileage:210000, Type of use:Street use onlyMy wife surprised me with a 1989 911 Targa 3.2 that was purchased from out of town. I want to get it to a good mechanic to go over it in the Raleigh NC area. I understand it should have been inspected before purachase but when you get a gift like this all you can do is say Thank You!!!!!
Model: 911, Year:1987, Mileage:16.7K, Type of use:Both Street & TrackLooking for a 911 specialist anywhere near Kill Devil Hills, NC, for a PPI...high mileage '87 3.2 Carrera. Any ideas?
Model: 911 Carrera/ 956, Year:2004, Mileage:64000, Type of use:Street use onlyI am looking at this 911 Carrera/ 956. It has 64000 miles on it. Should there have been some service done recently? What questions should I be asking? It is a six speed. I'm going to be buying my first Porsche very soon. Do you recommend any type for someone doing this?My name is Dick Nethercote, and I live in the Orlando area. Thanks for your help.
Model: 964, Year:1993, Mileage:75,000, Type of use:Street use only
Model: Carrera, Year:1987, Mileage:100000, Type of use:Street use onlyDo you have a pre-purchase inspection checklist for the car below?
Model: 911c2, Year:1992, Mileage:108000, Type of use:Street use onlyWhat are the major potential problems with the 1992 c2 mOdel?
Model: 911, Year:1989, Mileage:88000, Type of use:Street use onlyI am looking at a car owned by a friend's father that he is sure is a 1989 silver anniversary. Unfortunately the car is cross country so I cannot see before purchasing. VIN WPOABO914KS121065. From the pics he sent me dosen't seem to be the silver blue color I've seen before, and he says there is no signature embroidered on the headrests. I thought it was only made in '88 model year. What's the story? Can I find out anything else about equipment with the VIN?

Forecasting for the intermountain west should be challenging, and last week, our look at Ogden was indeed a bit rough around the edges. The high temperature forecast was spot on, and there was no rain, as we all expected, but those low temperatures. Sheesh. Those lows ended up at least 10 degrees under the forecast, and that was true for every one of our forecasting outlets, for both days of the forecast period. Sorry, Utah. Weatherbug had the top forecast, for whatever that's worth.

In an interview, Joseph Ernst, director of the short experimental LONDONERS, talks about making a vintage film in a modern day city, and his experience of being part of film festivals. Ernst's LONDONERS was screened in November 2013 at the Aesthetica Short Film Festival (ASFF) and will have its London première at the London Short Film Festival (LSFF) on 13 January at 6.30pm. Drawing upon his experience of collaborating with Channel 4 and 4Creative to produce films, Ernst also gives advice to aspiring filmmakers.
A: Firstly, your experimental short LONDONERS (2012) screened at ASFF and has its London première at this year's LSFF. Why do you think involvement in film festivals is important?
JE: I work as a programmer for Slamdance Film Festival in the States, so I get to watch a lot of shorts. But at a film festival, you have an audience of people who want to see a group of good quality short films. The experience of watching your short becomes a cinematic one: a shared experience with a captive audience. Online distribution is fine, and there is definitely a place for it, but it cannot substitute cinema. There is also something to be said about seeing a group of shorts, themed together by genre, and seeing how they play off each other. This is something that rarely works in online media.
A: What was your experience of ASFF 2013?
JE: I was only up for one day, but it was packed from beginning to end! I started with a networking session in the morning, and I also managed to go to one talk and three screenings. I would like to make a special mention to Sylvie Hohlbaum for her short documentary Beige (2012), which I found very funny.
A: Where do you find inspiration for short films?
JE: Most of the time I get inspired by things that are wrong, as it makes me think of better ways to do or say or show something. But with LONDONERS, I actually got the inspiration from the old Edwardian films of Mitchell and Kenyon. And I had the idea of doing a contemporary version of this. The thesis was that even today, people would still interact with the camera in the same positive, innocent way, to show that the community spirit of this city hasn't changed at all in the last 100 years.
A: You used a hand-cranked 35mm camera to shoot LONDONERS. Can you explain this process and how it impacted upon your work?
JE: A huge amount of preparation went into creating this film. The first problem was to find the right camera. Film gages were only standardised in 1909, so the camera would have to be post 1909 or we would be unable to find film stock that we could use. LONDONERS was filmed on a 100 year old Ertel Filmette, using an original uncoated 50mm lens, on black and white 35mm Kodak film stock. However, this too had its problems. Today, Kodak film stock only comes in 400ft cans. Normally you would take this 400ft of film, and transfer it into a camera magazine in a dark room. It would then be ready to stick on the camera and shoot, but our camera's magazines could only take approximately 150ft of film.
We had to take each 400ft canister into a dark room, and split it into 3 parts, on manually modified cores to fit the camera. To make shooting even more complex, each of our magazines had to be loaded and unloaded on the street in a changing tent. The process is old school and laborious. The one thing I learned was to really appreciate digital technology. We all take it for granted, but it really is a life saver, and I'm not sure I would shoot on film again.
A: What has it been like to co-produce a short film with Channel 4, and what tips can you give emerging filmmakers wishing to collaborate with leading film organisations?
JE: Channel 4 and 4creative were a great help and resource in producing this film. I worked with a brilliant producer Gwilym Gwillim. I think anyone wanting to collaborate with film organisations needs to have a very clear and simple idea of what they want to do, and what they don't want to do, of how they want to do it, and how they don't want to do it. But within those two ideals, to be open to other peoples' input. It also helps if your idea doesn't cost hundreds of thousands of pounds. If the idea is really that good, there should be several ways of making it.
A: Finally, do you have any future projects planned?
JE: Yes. I'm working on two longer format projects. One is a doc that we have started shooting already, and the other is a fiction script that hopefully will go into pre-production later this year. I use twitter @joseph_ernst and Facebook www.facebook.com/JosephErnst.Projects to keep people up to date with all my new projects, and LONDONERS has its own Facebook page www.facebook.com/LondonersDoc.
ASFF is now open for entries, inviting filmmakers pushing the boundaries of their medium to submit works in all genres with two new categories, fashion and advertising. For guidelines and information to submit your film to ASFF 2014 visit www.asff.co.uk/submit. Deadline for entries is 31 May 2014.

- Google's Nexus One phone considered a flop due to lagging sales.
Turns out that the Google has only moved about 135,000 of these units. This is staggering when you take into account that Apple had already sold a million iPhones by the same time in that product's life cycle.

- Windows 7 more popular than Harry Potter in regards to pre-order sales.
The OS immediately put Windows Vista to shame, selling more copies on Amazon in its first eight hours than Vista did in its entire pre-order period. In the last three months, the only currently available products to beat Windows 7 were Dan Brown novels.

AB Oxon(1677) AM(1683) MB(1685) MD(1687)
William Coward, MD, was born at Winchester, and educated at the collegiate school in that city. Going thence to Oxford, he was admitted a commoner of Hart hall in May, 1674, and a scholar of Wadham college in 1675. As a member of that house, he proceeded AB 27th June, 1677. In 1680 he was chosen a fellow of Merton college, and took his degrees as follows: AM 13th December, 1683; MB 23rd June, 1685; and MD 2nd July, 1687. He settled for a time at Northampton, but removed to London in 1694, and was admitted a Candidate of the College of Physicians 5th July, 1695.
Dr Coward was more devoted to literary and metaphysical pursuits than to medicine. Haller(1) dismisses him summarily as "non utilissimus scriptor." In 1682 he translated into Latin, Dryden's Absalom and Achitophel which, however, did not much contribute to his fame, as it was surpassed by the rival translation of Atterbury. On his arrival in town he attracted considerable notice by his work entitled Second Thoughts concerning the Human Soul in which, with great learning and metaphysical knowledge he united sentiments which were repugnant to the opinions of the best divines. This book, as well as another entitled The Grand Essay in defence of it, not only drew the attacks of several writers, but the animadversions of the House of Commons, which on the 17th March, 1704, ordered the book to be burnt by the common hangman, as containing doctrines contrary to the Articles of the Church of England, and opposed to the Christian religion.
Dr Coward remained a Candidate of the College to the last; and died in 1725, having, it is said, resided for some years at Ipswich.
His professional writings were -
De Fermento Volatili Nutritio Conjectura 8vo. Lond. 1695.
Alcali Vindicatum; or, an Enquiry into the fallacious Reasons of a late Essay touching Alcali and Acid 12mo. Lond, 1698.

South African Paralympic star Oscar Pistorius has been arrested by South African police for allegedly shooting dead his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp at his home in Pretoria, local media are reporting.
Pretoria police have confirmed that a 30-year-old woman has died after being shot this morning at the home of Paralympian Oscar Pistorius in the Silver Lakes area Of Pretoria.
South African journalist Kalay Maistry told Sky News: "It is alleged that he thought his girlfriend, who'd come in to try to surprise him for Valentines Day, was an intruder. It's alleged that he shot her at least twice in the arm and head.
"I think what this actually highlights is the level of fear ordinary South Africans have.
"This is a man who has gone to bed, it's an innocent surprise from a girlfriend … and the moment he thinks someone is trying to break in he grabs his gun.
"This has come as a complete surprise for a man who's considered a national hero," she added.
The Johannesburg-born athlete, known as the "Blade Runner", made history in 2012 when he became the first amputee to compete in the Olympics.
The athlete had both legs amputated below the knee when he was 11 months old, because of a congenital condition, and runs on carbon fibre blades.He won gold in the 4x400m relay at the Paralympic Games.Last year Time Magazine named him as one of the world's 100 most influential people.

Last year I went to Buenos Aires to visit my friend Gemma (unrepresentative photo below). Before my trip I'd seen an Arte documentary on the publishing house Eloisa Cartonera, and so a visit to their office-shop was high on my list.
Eloisa Cantonera was formed in reaction to the Argentine economic crisis in 2001, which included dramatic rises in consumer prices, unemployment and homelessness. The collective buys cardboard from cartoneros (people living off scrap collection), handpaints it and uses it as binding for the works of previously unpublihed writers and poets. Several of them, especially Washington Cucurto, have since become cult authors in Latin America, and last year Eloisa Cartonera was invited to the Frankfurt International Book Fair.
Astounding what one can achieve with some creativity and a bit of cardboard...
Who needs e-books.
If you're ever in B.A., go and pay them a visit. Excellent contemporary art museum Fundación Proa and best steak in town at El Obrero just next door.

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to the greengrocer this morning; after a long winter of muddy roots the fresh spring fruit and veg is brightening up the shelves. Fresh peas, plump strawberries and wiry asparagus were piled high and a big box of locally-grown baby plum tomatoes had pride of place by the door. I took my time browsing and left with my bag overflowing with goodies, including plenty of those shiny, red tomatoes.
As a devoted fan of the wonderful Nigel Slater I often turn to his books, articles and shows for inspiration. He is a keen gardener which is probably why he creates so many simple but stunning recipes for vegetables. I was sure he'd have something perfect for my haul and so he did. This fab and speedy recipe is not your usual tomato sauce; rather than roasting or sauteing the tomatoes, you char them under the grill making them smokey and sweet. I tweeked the original a little; I also happened to buy some gorgeous wood-smoked garlic that was begging me to join in the fun. If you can find some, pop it in, you'll be glad you did!
A handful of fresh herbs, some melty mozzarella and the first of the home-grown salad made my morning's shopping into a fantastic light dinner. But there's no need to stop there, this sauce would be lovely on bruschetta or made on the barbeque.
Smokey tomato sauce
Lightly tweeked from Nigel Slater's Simple Suppers
- 15-20 ripe tomatoes
- 2 cloves of garlic (smoked if available)
- fresh thyme
- olive oil
- salt and pepper
- a dash of wine vinegar or a teaspoon of sugar if necessary
- fresh basil
- a ball of mozzarella, torn into small bits
Pre-heat the grill to the highest setting. Meanwhile halve the tomatoes and arrange in a baking pan deep enough to catch the juices. Slice the garlic and tuck underneath the tomatoes.
Drizzle over some olive oil, scatter over thyme leaves, salt and pepper. Pop under the grill until charred*.
Roughly mash the tomatoes with a fork and taste. Add vinegar if too sweet or sugar if too sour. Stir in the basil and mozzarella and serve immediately.
*This took about 15 mins in my rather slow grill, start them before the pasta and check regularly.

001 Records is three labels in one. The Chilean label has its electronic label, an ambient-drone-noise-space-experimental label called Organic Acoustic, and a jazz compilation series.
Recórcholis, the first in the jazz series, knocked our socks off when it was released in 2010 and remains one of our all-time favorite free jazz albums. It is proof that jazz is alive and well and thriving in the República de Chile.
We have not spent as much time with Replicas, the second in the series, but it is high quality jazz, as well.
The label writes, "'Recórcholis (Perdimos A Uno)' by Claudio Rubio, one of Chile's 'new jazz' saxophonists, was commissioned in December of 2009 to headline a series of compilations of music created during the year. Thus the CD Recórcholis is snapshot of a very productive season in which composers and improvisors have recorded works that mark the route to higher levels in Chilean jazz."
In addition to the official website, 001 Records is also on the Internet Archive where you will also find easy downloads of the jazz comps

When Brad Pope returns to his boyhood hometown to settle a debt with his long-lost father, the 35-year-old psychologist becomes a prime murder suspect. Perched high on the east bank of the Suwannee River, the sleepy town of Whitecross, Florida is known for its natural crystal-clear springs and underwater caverns. Not murder. Until now.
The psychologist's hopes of proving his innocence and reconnecting with his cantankerous Grandma Gigi are hindered by the surprise and horror surrounding his father's whereabouts and sinister secrets of the Women's Preservation Club (WPC). The six quirky "sisterfriends" in the club founded by Grandma Gigi—whom Brad expects to jabber about preparing Sunday's church bulletin or the next bake sale—start to look more like cold-blooded killers than church ladies. As Brad learns of more dead bodies, his suspicions sour into the clabbered taste of fear. What had the WPC planted in their welcome garden on the outskirts of Whitecross—Camellias or corpses? And what about Brad's nemesis, Voodoo Sally, an old black woman living in a dilapidated shack on the banks of the Suwannee River? She doles out her version of wisdom, "limestone gumption." But what else does she know about the murders in Whitecross?
Reminiscent of The Help and Fried Green Tomatoes, this offbeat, fast-paced mystery blends humor and dark plot, keeping you on the edge of your seat or making you fall out of it laughing as it witnesses beauty and brutality in a small Southern town, twisting, turning, and teasing to the surface one suspicion, one misunderstanding and one murder at a time.
Bryan E. Robinson's Limestone Gumption won the 2015 Silver IPPY Award and the Foreword Reviews' Bronze Award for best mystery of the year. Robinson is Coordinator of International Thriller Writers' Debut Author Forum, member of Mystery Writers of America, and author of 35 nonfiction books. He is a psychotherapist in private practice in Asheville, North Carolina, where he is working on the second book in the Brad Pope and Sisterfriends series, She'll Be Killing Round the Mountain.

The Ultimate Wedding Day Checklist
Wedding Checklist:
Just got engaged???? Yey!!!!
Soon After your engagement........
February 28th, 2017
Some advice on your wedding photography:
If the idea of taking thousands of photos on your wedding day seems daunting to you, you're not alone. After all, unless you're a professional model, you're probably not accustomed to being in front of the camera for hours on end. So how do you pose for your wedding photographs to guarantee shots that you'll actually want to frame or put in your wedding album? We caught up with lifestyle and beauty expert Alexis Wolfer, who's also author of the newly released book Radiant Bride, a beauty, diet, fitness and fashion guide to looking and feeling your best in time for your wedding. Here she shares tips from her book on how to look completely natural in your wedding photos.
Find Your Best Side
"No one's face is perfectly symmetrical and while I'm sure both sides of your face are gorgeous, you probably have one you like a bit better (even if you don't yet know it!) Take some selfies (or ask your BFF to help you out) and practice posing with your face tilted in each direction. Once you know your 'best side,' always pose to put your best face forward."
Contour Your Face
"A great picture is all about the angles—and a picture taken with you looking directly into the camera flattens out your natural ones by eliminating the shadows that help to contour your face. While that's not to say you can't look stunning in a straight-on shot, if you don't have exceptionally pronounced bone structure, a slight tilt of your chin (either up or down) and turn of your cheek (to your best side, of course) will help to make your face look more chiseled."
Mind Your Chin
"To make a round or oval face look slimmer, angle your chin down ever so slightly (careful not to create a double chin in the process!). If you have a pronounced forehead, lift your chin up just a bit to create more balance. Regardless of your face shape and chin angle, push your entire face forward a little. What's closest to the camera will look the biggest, so pushing your face forward a bit will make your body appear slimmer. Alternatively, you can ask the photographer to shoot you from a slightly overhead angle to create the angles without you having to do anything."
Smile Naturally
"The key is to smile like you do in real life—and not as big as possible. When you smile largely, your cheeks puff out and your eyes squint, which isn't the most flattering of poses. Instead, practice relaxing your face, opening your mouth ever so slightly, and thinking of something that makes you happy—like spending the rest of your life with your significant other."
Use Your Tongue
"Try pushing your tongue against the roof of your mouth. This somewhat awkward feeling pose will help to elongate your neck and reduce the appearance of any double chin. Just practice ahead of time to make sure you don't look uncomfortable doing it."
"Tyra Banks popularized the term as shorthand for smiling with your eyes—and it works! You know when you smile how your eyes squint, the corners turn up, and you look slightly up? When you pose, try to replicate that look, even in non-smiling shots. The result will be a more approachable, happy look, even when you're not actually smiling."
Accentuate Your Arms"The key to posing your arms is to keep them away from your body so they're not smushed against your torso, causing them to photograph wider than they actually are. One of the most flattering poses is to put the arm closest to the camera on your hip to accentuate your waist and slim your arm. Just be sure to tuck your elbow so it's pointing behind you and not out to the side. Feeling too posed? Just make sure your arms are lifted ever so slightly off your body or hold the person's back next to you to conceal your arm altogether."
Love Your Legs"Even if you're wearing a gown that completely conceals your legs, don't forget to pay attention to them. Either bend one knee (even the littlest bit) so you don't look stiff or cross your ankles at your calves to elongate your legs and make your hips appear narrower."
Angle Your Body"Turn your body so it's at a 45-degree angle or so you're facing the person you're standing next to in order to put your body's depth (not width) on display, which, for most women, is more flattering."
Stand Up Straight"Great posture goes a long way in making you look happier, healthier, more fit and more confident. It also affects how you feel: giving you more energy, which you'll need!"
Relax"Have fun, laugh and be you. You want your pictures to capture the essence of the occasion, not to look posed. Feeling stuck and uptight with all eyes on you? Look away from the camera, or have a moment with your love, and then come back to it. Or when all else fails, dance around a bit!"

Advice for couples:
1. Choose to love each other, even in those moments when you struggle to like each other. Love is a commitment, not a feeling.
2. Always answer the phone when your husband/wife is calling. When possible, try to keep your phone off when you're together with your spouse.
3. Make time together a priority. Budget for a consistent date night. Time is the "currency of relationships," so consistently invest time into your marriage.
4. Surround yourself with friends who will strengthen your marriage. Remove yourself from people who may tempt you to compromise your character.
5. Make laughter the soundtrack of your marriage. Share moments of joy. And even in the hard times, find reasons to laugh.
6. In every argument, remember that there won't be a "winner" and a "loser." You're partners in everything so you'll either win together or lose together. Work together to find a solution.
7. Realize that a strong marriage rarely has two strong people at the same time. It's usually a husband and wife taking turns being strong for each other in the moments when the other feels weak.
8. Prioritize what happens in the bedroom. It takes more than sex to build a strong marriage, but it's nearly impossible to build a strong marriage without it.
9. Remember that marriage isn't 50/50— divorce is 50/50. Marriage has to be 100/100. It's not splitting everything in half, but both partners giving everything they've got.
10. Give your best to each other, not your leftovers after you've given your best to everyone else.
11. Learn from other people, but don't feel the need to compare your life or your marriage to anyone else's. God's plan for your life is masterfully unique.
12. Don't put your marriage on hold while you're raising your kids or else you'll end up with an empty nest and an empty marriage.
13. Never keep secrets from each other. Secrecy is the enemy of intimacy.
14. Never lie to each other. Lies break trust and trust is the foundation of a strong marriage.
15. When you've made a mistake, admit it and humbly seek forgiveness. You should be quick to say, "I was wrong. I'm sorry. Please forgive me."
16. When your husband/wife breaks your trust, give them your forgiveness instantly. This will promote healing and create the opportunity for trust to be rebuilt. You should be quick to say, "I love you. I forgive you. Let's move forward."
17. Be patient with each other. Your spouse is always more important than your schedule.
18. Model the kind of marriage that will make your sons want to grow up to be good husbands, and your daughters want to grow up to be good wives.
19. Be your spouse's biggest encourager, not his/her biggest critic. Be the one who wipes away their tears, not the one who causes them.
20. Never talk badly about your spouse to other people or vent about them online. Protect your spouse at all times and in all places.
21. Always wear your wedding ring. It will remind you that you're always connected to your spouse and will remind the rest of the world that you're off limits.
22. When you have to choose between saying nothing or saying something mean to your spouse, say nothing every time.
23. Never consider divorce as an option. Remember that a "perfect marriage" is just two imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other.
