Not a "token gesture": Nova Scotia Court of Appeal confirms deductibility of future CPP disability benefits from tort damages
In an important decision for the auto insurance industry, the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal has confirmed that future CPP disability benefits are indeed deductible from damages awarded in Nova Scotia cases for future loss of earning capacity or future loss of income. The case is Sparks v Holland. It is a sequel, of sorts, to the Court of Appeal's 2017 decision in Tibbetts v Murphy.
Section 113A of the Nova Scotia Insurance Act was at issue in both cases:
Effect of income-continuation benefit plan
113A In an action for loss or damage from bodily injury or death arising directly or indirectly from the use or operation of an automobile, the damages to which a plaintiff is entitled for income loss and loss of earning capacity shall be reduced by all payments in respect of the incident that the plaintiff has received or that were available before the trial of the action for income loss or loss of earning capacity under the laws of any jurisdiction or under an income-continuation benefit plan if, under the law or the plan, the provider of the benefit retains no right of subrogation.
In Sparks, the judge below had concluded that only past CPP disability benefits (received before trial) could be deducted from damages for income loss or loss of earning capacity. A five-member panel of the Court of Appeal overturned this decision. Writing for the unanimous Court, Justice Farrar accepted the Appellant's argument that the motion judge made two main errors: one related to stare decisis, and the other related to statutory interpretation.
On the first issue, the Court held that the motion judge in Sparks was bound to follow Tibbetts. The trial judge in Tibbetts had found that section 113A required the deduction of future CPP disability benefits, and the Court of Appeal in Tibbetts endorsed that finding "by necessary implication" when it upheld the trial judge's interpretation as correct. The motion judge was wrong to conclude he was not bound by Tibbetts.
Moving on to statutory interpretation, the Court applied the well-known "modern principle" of statutory interpretation and made the following five key points about section 113A.
First, section 113A was part of the Automobile Insurance Reform Act (Bill 1), which was enacted in 2003 in order to "help reduce the sky-rocketing automobile insurance premiums being charged in Nova Scotia." The Court of Appeal had already discussed this legislative intent in two previous decisions (Tibbetts, as well as Hartling v Nova Scotia (Attorney General)).
Second, section 113A in particular was intended to change the collateral benefits rule. Where this common law rule applies, a plaintiff is allowed to keep certain collateral benefits with no deduction from their tort damages, resulting in a form of double recovery. But the Court of Appeal in both Tibbetts and Sparks stated that section 113A was intended to eliminate this potential for double recovery.
Third, the Legislature's purpose of eliminating double recovery would be "frustrated" if only pre-trial benefits were deductible.
Fourth, the phrase "loss of earning capacity" in section 113A needs to be interpreted in the context of Nova Scotia damages law. As Justice Farrar explained at paragraph 51: "'Loss of earning capacity' in Nova Scotia is generally understood to be a future-focused head of damages, awarded where the plaintiff will be capable of working post-trial, but not at her or his pre-injury level." The motion judge did not interpret "loss of earning capacity" in its proper context.
Finally, the motion judge applied an "overly technical approach" to interpreting the phrase "payments…available before the trial of the action" and finding that it only refers to payments that were or could have been received before trial. As Justice Farrar explained, "the word 'available' has a broad meaning, and refers to payments that a person is entitled to, but has not yet received."
Justice Farrar stated further:
[63] The words "available before the trial of the action" simply require that the Court be able to determine entitlement to any proposed source of deductions at the time of trial.
[64] This interpretation of "available" is consistent with the meaning of the word 'available' in relation to the deduction of "Section B" no-fault benefits under the Act as found by this Court.
In the end, the Court of Appeal adopted the interpretation that would best achieve the Legislature's objective, commenting that: "It would be little more than a token gesture for the Legislature to eliminate double recovery to the date of trial, and to permit double recovery thereafter."
Sparks has now provided a spark of necessary clarity in a complicated area of insurance law. Where the evidence shows that the plaintiff is entitled to receive CPP disability benefits post-trial, there will be a corresponding deduction from their tort damages for future loss of earnings. That is what section 113A requires, and what the Nova Scotia Legislature intended.
Stewart McKelvey lawyers Christopher Madill and Tipper McEwan represented the Appellant in this matter.

Washington Warned That Russia Would Pay A High Price If It Offered A Reward For Killing American Soldiers
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Photo: Reuters
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he warned his Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, that Russia would pay a heavy price if it offered to kill US or Western soldiers in Afghanistan.
US Secretary of State Pompeo, in an interview during his official visit to the Czech Republic on August 12, said:
"If the Russians offer bounties to kill American or Western soldiers, they will have to pay a huge price. That's what I said to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. "
The statement came after the New York Times last June quoted information from unnamed US intelligence officials saying that Russian spies had offered bonuses to Taliban militants, to encourage rebels to attack coalition troops led by the US in Afghanistan. The Pentagon later said it would investigate to verify the information and commit to action if it is true.
The Kremlin said the New York Times information was completely false, while the Russian embassy in Washington called it "unfounded and anonymous charges".
Pompeo declined to say whether he believed the New York Times intelligence to be credible. He also declined to comment whether he thought President Donald Trump should be reported, but said Washington would not tolerate such behavior.
"I know our troops have also communicated with their senior leaders. We will not allow that, will not tolerate it."
Pompeo added.

This fit-out of existing shell space creates an expanded BSL-2 laboratory for the Biopharma Services group, which provides sample analysis, assay, and cell-based assay services.
By starting with Millipore's draft program, HERA was able to flush out requirements and issues they had not considered such as keep certain functions of the lab (Luminex Stations) in their original location to allow more capacity for future expansion of other lab functions (Assay Stations).
The project includes lab support space, office space, and a relocated, expanded break room, and is designed to accommodate future expansion of the labs and office space, additional building support services, and conversion of the break room into a full-service cafeteria to support the rapid growth of these services.
This LEED Silver-certified project was planned with movable casework to maximize future flexibility and to take advantage of views and light from the large perimeter windows.

Ancient trees are considered one of the most important habitats for biodiversity in Europe and North America. They support exceptional numbers of specialized species, including a range of rare and endangered wood-living insects. In this study, we use a dataset of 105 sites spanning a climatic gradient along the oak range of Norway and Sweden to investigate the importance of temperature and precipitation on beetle species richness in ancient, hollow oak trees. We expected that increased summer temperature would positively influence all wood-living beetle species whereas precipitation would be less important with a negligible or negative impact. Surprisingly, only oak-specialist beetles with a northern distribu- tion increased in species richness with temperature. Few specialist beetles and no generalist beetles responded to the rise of 4°C in summer as covered by our cli- matic gradient. The negative effect of precipitation affected more specialist species than did temperature, whereas the generalists remained unaffected. In summary, we suggest that increased summer temperature is likely to benefit a few specialist beetles within this dead wood community, but a larger number of specialists are likely to decline due to increased precipitation. In addition, generalist species will remain unaffected. To minimize adverse impacts of climate change on this impor- tant community, long-term management plans for ancient trees are important.

Q: Modifiable Array of strings in PostgreSQL I am looking to store an Array of strings in a table which I can then append more data to.
My table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE users (id SERIAL, username varchar(32), password char(40), name varchar(64), age integer, successful_logins varchar(32)[10], failed_logins varchar(32)[10], roles text[3]);

I have tried this but it doesnt do anything:
UPDATE users SET successful_logins = array_append(successful_logins, :timestamp) WHERE username = :username;

The :varname comes from a JDBI Driver I am using, but I am passing in a String. Why doesnt this work? Is there a better way to get the same result?
EDIT:
Here is the driver I am using:
<dependency>
    <groupId>postgresql</groupId>
    <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
    <version>9.1-901.jdbc4</version>
</dependency>

I get no error and it seems to be releted to my DAO or driver.
Here is the DAO code:
import org.skife.jdbi.v2.sqlobject.Bind;
import org.skife.jdbi.v2.sqlobject.SqlUpdate;

@SqlUpdate("UPDATE users SET successful_logins=ARRAY_APPEND((SELECT successful_logins FROM users WHERE username=:username),:timestamp)WHERE username=:username")
void addSuccessfulLogin(@Bind("timestamp") String timestamp, @Bind("username") String username);

When I try this in psql with the vars replaces with values it works. I am wondering if this this a casting issue? Do I need to cast my String to something?

A: I am not familiar with your JDBI library, but I tried this in the Postgres console and it worked:
UPDATE mytable SET successful_logins =
ARRAY_APPEND(
    (
     SELECT successful_logins FROM mytable WHERE id=1),
    'Some additional value'
     )
WHERE id=1

Perhaps the problem is that you need to select the existing successful_logins value before you pass it to the array_append.
EDIT: Well, it looks like you're missing a space between ARRAY_APPEND() and WHERE...

A: When I was making the call to addSuccessfulLogin I was doing:
addSuccessfulLogin(username, timestamp);

instead of
addSuccessfulLogin(timestamp, username)

So it was trying to find a username based on a timestamp, which doesnt exist. This is why there were no errors. SO make sure you call your own API correctly!

Breen, Delgado Locked In Tight Race For Leading Trainer With 13 Live Racing Days left
With Jose H. Delgado entering three horses and Kelly Breen two for Monmouth Park's final Friday twilight card of the meet this weekend, there's a chance an already-close trainers' race could tighten up even more.
Breen, who was Monmouth Park's leading trainer in 2005 and 2006, currently leads the standings with 16 winners from 61 starters. But Delgado, with five winners from his past eight starters, highlighted by a three-win day last Saturday, has closed the gap considerably. He has 14 winners from 56 starters at the meet.
Ben Perkins, Jr. is the only other trainer with double-digit wins at 10, and that has come from just 22 starters.
"Everything is going the right way," said Delgado, who launched his training career in 2017. "I have horses that fit the conditions at Monmouth and they're running very well. So it's going very well for me right now."
Delgado, a former jockey, is aware of the tightened trainers' race but insists he has not allowed it to dominate his thinking with 13 racing days left in the meet. A training title would be the first of his career.
"I'm really not focused on that," he said. "I'm just happy the way the horses are running right now. Everybody in the barn is happy with the way things are going. So I'm not getting too excited about anything else yet.
"Kelly is a very good trainer. He has many more horses on the grounds than I do. So it's going to be a little tough (to pass him). Right now I'm just happy with the way things are going. I'm elated."
Delgado, coming off his best year (37 overall winners in 2019), came into the shortened meet with momentum from a year ago, when he won 25 races from 81 starters at Monmouth Park.
But he says this year "is already better than last year was."
"I started with eight horses last year, then throughout the meet I started claiming and then people started sending me horses and I started winning more," he said. "This year I came with 25 horses right away. That helps a lot. That makes a difference."
One of Delgado's starters on Friday will be a 2-year-old filly named Game On Girl that owner Dave Gruskos claimed for $25,000 following a disappointing debut on July 31 when she faded to seventh as the even-money favorite. Delgado is adding blinkers for her second lifetime start.
His starter in the third race, Currency Chrome, comes off a second-place finish after flashing speed.
In the final race on Friday's six-race card he will saddle Jersey Joe B, a 6-year-old gelding who was recently claimed for $12,500.
A sweep of all three would give him his 100th career winner. He had 316 winners during his riding career, which ended in 2014.
"I don't know what will happen the rest of the meet but I'm pretty sure I will get a few more winners because the horses are running well and I am putting them in the right spots," Delgado said. "I think I have a lot of horsepower left. The important thing is we're having success and everyone is happy the way things are going."

Untrafine mill product fineness can reach 200-2500, output per hour in about 12 tons, and the high-pressure Raymond Mill fine can only reach 350, but the yield can reach 20 tons per hour, compared to see the individual needs. So the difference between ultrafine mill and vertical roller mill performance, then how to choose processing fly ash? In general, fly ash processing 325 purposes more, but high yield requirements, you can choose high-pressure Raymond mill.
Anyway, Fly ash is a fine dust captured from the flue gas after coal combustion. Fly ash is the main solid waste discharged from coal-fired power plants. A large number of fly ash will produce dust and pollute the atmosphere without treatment. if the customer pays attention to yield, can choose the Raymond Mill of Shanghai SBM, processing of gypsum, talc, calcite, limestone, marble, feldspar, dolomite, barite, granite, kaolin, stone, bauxite, iron ore, iron oxide red with hardness below seven grade, in 6% kinds of humidity the following non flammable and explosive ore. The fineness of the finished product is between 613 microns and 440 microns (0.613 millimeters to 0.44 millimeters). By analyzing the common function of the blower and fan, it can meet the use requirements of different users, and has become a large number of ultra-fine powder processing equipment.


Impact Services Inc. "shut its doors" after filing for Chapter 7 liquidation May 24 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware, said Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation spokeswoman Meg Lockhart.
Impact Services is a radioactive waste processing facility that provided decontamination services to low-level radioactive component parts and scrap from commercial nuclear reactors, according to its website.
Lockhart said members of the department's Division of Radiological Health went to the site on May 21 and the company had a radiation safety officer there. Lockhart said the scrap radioactive material was secure and the company was trying to decide its options.
Filings in the bankruptcy case say the company does not believe the current storage and processing of the low-level radioactive waste currently poses a threat of "imminent and identifiable harm to the public health or safety." The document went on to say the material could pose a threat if not handled properly.
The company said about 60 to 70 percent of material can go back to the generators, Lockhart said.
"If that is the case, it would leave about 400,000 pounds that would need to be addressed," she said.
Lockhart said it is too early to speculate on future plans for the facility. The state and a bankruptcy trustee have planned a conference call to discuss the next steps.
The state holds a $1.2 million surety bond to cover the liabilities when a facility abandons their responsibility to maintain the site in a safe condition, Lockhart said.
The Tennessee Valley Authority does not use Impact Services as a contractor for its low-level radioactive waste, such as plant parts and disposable suits and cleaning materials, said TVA spokesman Ray Golden.


Kanta is currently upgrading the 10-story Bronx Family Criminal Court's electrical infrastructure, including a new standby emergency system. The project, slated to take place over three years, is scheduled to be completed on or before its initially projected date of completion.
Currently under construction, Kanta Electric plays a key role in the development of the CUNY Advanced Science Research Center. As a cornerstone of CUNY's "Decade of Science," Kanta's emphasis on safety, dependability professionalism earned it this elusive contract.
Kanta Electric partnered with Turner Construction to provide comprehensive electrical solutions in the design of Brooklyn Bridge Park. The public space, which utilizes such energy-saving measures as dimmable lighting and control capacity, turned to Kanta for its expertise in the growing field of green design. Kanta completed the job on time and under budget.
Slated for completion in August 2015, Kanta Electric is currently in partnership with DASNY (The Dormitory Authority of New York) in the redevelopment of the Bronx Psychiatric Center. With DASNY, Kanta is focused on providing the power needed to run the project's state of the art facilities with a particular emphasis on efficiency and sustainability.
This year, Kanta successfully completed comprehensive underground electrical power work for the Goethals Bridge. The contract was completed on time and continues to help power this 84 year-old cornerstone of New York transportation and infrastructure.
Kanta recently completed a building-wide fire alarm system upgrade for Brooklyn College's prestigious and historic Butler library on the Brooklyn College campus in Brooklyn, New York.
Kanta Electric played a vital role in the construction of 2 Gotham Center – a flagship property in New York City's fourth largest business district. The building, currently under construction in Long Island City, replaces the unused Queens Plaza Municipal Parking Garage with a state of the art, mixed use office facility powered by Kanta's cutting-edge electrical solutions.
For this project for American Airlines, Kanta installed a state-of-the-art emergency generator system throughout American Airline's entire terminal. Kanta's superior work contributes to JFK Airport's reputation as an iconic destination for travelers across the world.
Based on my previous experience working with numerous contractors, I have found Kanta Electric's work to be of high quality. We worked closely together with Mr. Prakash Kapadia.

They found that, without changes to farm policy and improvements to agricultural technology, the nation's productivity in 2050 could look like it did in 1980. That's because at the present rates of innovation, new technologies won't be able to keep up with the damage caused by the changes in climate in our major growing regions.
Lead author Xin-Zhong Liang, a professor at the University of Maryland, says both policymakers and those who work directly in agriculture should consider changes that might prevent this drop. On the policy side, Liang said, changes to water management could help. On the technology side, the development of seeds that can withstand more extremes of heat and rain would likely help mitigate the climate's impact on overall productivity.
But, he adds, such advances will need to come at a faster pace than they have in the past.
The new research identifies the Corn Belt as the region where the changes could have the biggest impact on overall productivity, with California and the Southwest region second in line. The transition area from the Corn Belt into the southern cotton and pasture region is also vulnerable. Losses in U.S. production could impact the global food supply.
This research, Liang says, enhances existing studies to offer a more robust picture of how total agricultural output of the country could change under different climate change scenarios.

The luscious historical drama is set in the post-Civil War era. During this period, huge fortunes were created by the natural industrial giants and self-made giants. (It doesn't say anything like "we're in money" like a glittering chandelier. It happens to appear in both opening credits. Downton When Gold plate.. The new series focuses on several families of different wealth and pedigree, such as the renowned Brooke Van Lines and the absolutely dough-wrapping Russell.
It's time to accept Change.
"We only accept old people, not new people," said the unfriendly widow Agnes Van Rhein.Christine Baranski).Think about it: Qualified (untitled) diagram Maggie SmithAs Agnes says, Countess Dwager is fighting "to curb the flow of vulgar people who may swallow us."
The danger would be her new Fifth Avenue neighbor, who built a house as luxurious as a French chateau. George Russell (Morgan Spector) may not have a gorgeous pedigree, but ruthless railroad tycoons can ruin his courageous competitors in the way. Meanwhile, his wife, Bertha (Carrie Coon), "Her abilities can only be applied to social efforts, philanthropy, and having a good marriage for her children," says Kuhn. Much of society ridicules attempts to gain Bertha's access, but the actress defends her. "Today she may have been a politician or entrepreneur in her own right."
Fellowes agrees. "Agnes hates change because it's an old system that supports her pretending. A new kid, Bertha, will see the door open and go through it."
The younger generation tests the status quo.

NASA looking for paid volunteers for simulated Mars mission, here are the conditions:
Mars Dune Alpha Conceptual Render: Visualization on Mars. (Photo Credit: ICON via Nasa.gov)
NASA is currently recruiting applicants for participation as a crew member for a simulated Mars mission set to begin next year.
Successful applicants will join a one-year analog mission in a habitat to simulate life on a distant world to prepare NASA for real-life challenges of future missions to Mars, with the simulated mission set to begin in the Fall of 2022.
"NASA will study how highly motivated individuals respond under the rigor of a long-duration, ground-based simulation. The series of missions – known as Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog – includes three one-year Mars surface simulations based at NASA's Johnson Space Center. The analogs will support research to develop methods and technologies to prevent and resolve potential problems on future human spaceflight missions to the Moon and Mars," NASA said in a press release.
"The analog is critical for testing solutions to meet the complex needs of living on the Martian surface" said Grace Douglas, lead scientist for NASA's Advanced Food Technology research effort at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. "Simulations on Earth will help us understand and counter the physical and mental challenges astronauts will face before they go."
According to NASA, each mission will consist of four crew members living and working in a 1,700-square-foot module 3D-printed by ICON, called Mars Dune Alpha. The habitat will simulate the challenges of a mission on Mars, including resource limitations, equipment failure, communication delays, and other environmental stressors. Crew tasks may include simulated spacewalks, scientific research, use of virtual reality and robotic controls, and exchanging communications. The results will provide important scientific data to validate systems and develop solutions.
"NASA is looking for healthy, motivated US citizens or permanent residents who are non-smokers, age 30 to 55 years old, and proficient in English for effective communication between crew and mission control. Crew selection will follow standard NASA criteria for astronaut candidate applicants," the space exploration organization said.
"A master's degree in a STEM field such as engineering, mathematics, or biological, physical or computer science from an accredited institution with at least two years of professional STEM experience or a minimum of one thousand hours piloting an aircraft is required. Candidates who have completed two years of work toward a doctoral program in STEM, or completed a medical degree, or a test pilot program will also be considered. Additionally, with four years of professional experience, applicants who have completed military officer training or a Bachelor of Science in a STEM field may be considered," NASA added.

Q: mex file run out of memory I wrote a mexfunction on c++ code, then compiled it to get mexa64 file. After I used mexa64 file for many times, my PC memory run out.
Here is my mexfunction:
void mexFunction(int nlhs, mxArray *plhs[], int nrhs, const mxArray *prhs[])
{
//  double *res ;// the final result index
    int status1,status2,status3;
    double *res ;
    double *out_mat;
    double *x_idx,*y_idx,*width_idx,*height_idx;
    char* sequence_path;// the tracking image sequences
    char* sequence_name;// the tracking image sequences

    char* output_path;// save the output
    int start_frame=(int)mxGetScalar(prhs[0]);
    int end_frame=(int)mxGetScalar(prhs[1]);
    int Max_track_number=(int)mxGetScalar(prhs[2]);

     /* Extract the inputs */
    int buflen1=(mxGetM(prhs[3])*mxGetN(prhs[3]))+1;

    status1=mxGetString(prhs[3],sequence_path,buflen1);

    int buflen2=(mxGetM(prhs[4])*mxGetN(prhs[4]))+1;
    sequence_name= (char *)mxCalloc(buflen2,sizeof(char));
    status2=mxGetString(prhs[4],sequence_name,buflen2);

    int buflen3=(mxGetM(prhs[5])*mxGetN(prhs[5]))+1;
     output_path= (char *)mxCalloc(buflen3,sizeof(char));

    mexErrMsgTxt("the dimension of the initial bounding box parameter is wrong");
    int NN=N1;

     plhs[0] = mxCreateDoubleMatrix(Max_track_number*5*NN,1,mxREAL);
     out_mat = mxGetPr(plhs[0]);

     plhs[1] = mxCreateDoubleMatrix(1,1,mxREAL);
     res = mxGetPr(plhs[1]);

 *res=struck_track(start_frame,end_frame,Max_track_number,sequence_path,sequence_name,output_path,out_mat,x_idx,y_idx,width_idx,height_idx,NN);

}

Is there some problems that may cause the exhaustion of memory?

A: you should use mxFree whenever using the following:
mxCalloc
mxMalloc
mxRealloc
mxArrayToString
I can see from your code that you are using mxCalloc but there is no corresponding mxFree for the same.

A: Besides using mxFree you can also increase the Java Heap Size. You can find it under settings, general, java heap memory.

Q: Good Example .Net Open Source Solution Using a Composite UI I'm learning about composite UIs at the moment and I wondered if anyone could recommend a good open source project that utilises a composite UI that I could take a look at?
I've got the Prism framework and have gone through the samples. I'm looking for an actual project that has used them in a non-sample application.
Thanks in advance :-)

A: Tasks.Show is a to-do app written by PixelLab with an amazing UI. It uses Prism v4. It is technically a "reference" app to show off WPF features, but it isn't a trivial sample.

Much more than a guidebook, this natural and cultural feast takes you down the wildest, longest stretch of the Trans Canada Trail, from Alberta's far north to the Arctic Ocean. It provides all the nuts and bolts you'll need for your journey- whether on land or in an armchair- including detailed route maps, major landmarks, access points, community facilities, campsites, points of natural and historical interest, recommended side trips, and precautions. It also includes a diverse range of local contributors whose stories capture the unique spirit of each community and culture encountered along the way.
Covering 2300 km of water route and 600 km over land, this book offers many exciting options for you to customize your own trip, whether paddling the mighty Mackenzie River or biking the hinterlands of Yellowknife. Much of the route follows traditional travel corridors used by native people for thousands of years, followed later by European explorers, traders and missionaries. Some portions offer opportunities to see peregrine falcons, grizzly bears or beluga whales. Rockhounds can choose from a wide array of geological treats along the route. Want to catch an arctic grayling? Stroll on the tundra? Swim in the Beaufort Sea? Visit a native culture camp? Follow in the wake of the voyageurs? Paddle across the Arctic Circle? Bike through a herd of wild bison? May your dreams come true on the NWT Trans Canada Trail!

Interview with Sanctuary's Robin Dunne
Robin Dunne is the star of the SyFy hit series "Sanctuary". The show recently completed it's fourth season. Media Mikes had a chance to chat with Robin about the season, his first effort directing and what we can expect.
Mike Gencarelli: You star in "Sanctuary" but what made you turn to directing this season?
Robin Dunne: I have always had this approach to the business, which is to diversify. Some actors just want to be actors and I am a little jealous of them sometimes. I have always wanted to act and write and I have done both now. So I thought the next natural step for me was to direct. Working on "Sanctuary" was the best possible place to get my feet wet, everyone knew each out and works so well together. I have never been more prepared for something in my life. My only fear on directing was to not let my whole team down. I am really happy with the way the episode came out. The whole crew and team really wanted me to succeed.
MG: Who is the better director you are Amanda (Tapping)?
RD: [laughs] I think Amanda is more experienced at it. It is interesting because every director has style and approach. I didn't even know what my style was going to be until I got out on the floor and started directing. Amanda tends to be more of a technical director then me. She is very specific and uses cranes for different shots. I am not quite there yet. But let me tell you that directing is a blast.
MG: Any future plans to direct more episodes?
RD: I would love to direct more. Should we get a season five, I would love to take on a few more episodes.
MG: On a production side of the show, it doesn't seem like there is as much CGI as there used to be; can you reflect?
RD: It on scale actually. There are some episodes that are very heavy in CGI and others are very little. The reason for that is because there is such a time crunch that we are under to deliver the show to the network. The visual effects company gets so bogged down. There is a delicate balance of keeping all the visual effects in the show as possible without but also not hurting ourselves that the episodes won't be ready in time. In terms of directing, the visual effects was also another great educational process. I learned that during certain shots, if I put the camera in one spot then this (pointing) whole section by the window is going to need visual effects. You might want that though, but if it is not entirely necessary you can move the camera over slightly away from the window and not need all that effects done. When we started the show, it was only a two hour pilot, so we could spend a much time as we needed on the effects.
MG: Have you ever considered crossing over into other Syfy shows?
RD: I have thought about directing an episode of "Warehouse 13" just to give them the hardest time ever [laughs]. I would love to bust Eddie (McClintock)'s chops. It is one thing to walk on a set that you have been working on for years but it is another thing walking on a set that is brand new to you. It would be a whole different challenge.
MG: What is your favorite episode from season four?
RD: You know, I really like the episode that I directed, episode six titled "Homecoming". I think my favorite episode of the season, actually of the whole series to date, is episode eight titled "Fugue", which is our musical episode. It was such an amazing thing to do. It took all of us out of our comfort zones. Being in the recording sessions were great. Being on stage with the little ear piece playing that music that only you can hear, while trying to sing and act at the same time. It was such a challenge but such a fun episode. There is something about singing that brings out a certain emotional level in people. It works so well into the story that the audience is barely going to notice the music. They are not going to be able to notice when we are breaking into song. It definitely has to be one of my favorites.

Never Pull a Frozen Crocodile Out of Ice
In january 2018 a massive blizzard hit the east coast of the united states despite the work of meteorologists no one expected the consequences to be that bad hundreds of canceled flights car accidents multi-million dollar losses and 300 000 people were left without power only alligators knew of the impending disaster they froze themselves so the cold wouldn't kill them. George Howard- the manager of the Swamp Park, which features an alligator preserve in Ocean Isle Beach, N.C. the first time he saw them,he thought the odd-shaped humps protruding from his iced-over swamp were tree stumps.
But somehow that didn't seem right. He strained his eyes. They were tree stumps with teeth? He hopped the fence and clambered onto the pond, running toward the exposed alligator snouts. But, what could he do? The alligators were locked in the ice and immobile.
"I was like, holy crap, should I try to get them out of there?" Howard told The Washington Post.
But before he launched into an impromptu ice excavation, he decided some scientific research was in order, or at least some hurried googling. Relief washed over him as the search results loaded: His alligators were alive. They were surviving in the freezing water by sticking their snouts through the ice. Howard's worry was replaced with another emotion: astonishment. When it starts getting cold, the alligators submerge most of their bodies in the shallow water, then stick their noses up in the air in anticipation of the freeze ahead, creating a little hole to breathe through. Once the water freezes, the ice sticks to their snouts, locking the gator-cicles in place while their bodies dangle below the surface.
Trying to save the alligators would have killed them it's like trying to move a person who suffered a serious back injury before the ambulance arrives by the way don't do that and even though there's nothing wrong with the alligator spine they escape the cold by immersing themselves in the water because it's much warmer if the animal ends up outside the water at the wrong moment the combination of frost wet skin and cold bloodedness will instantly kill it.
Now, People know what's going on in the ice: When the alligators go under, they enter what's called "brumation" — like hibernation but for the coldblooded — and their bodies almost entirely shut down. All they need to do is breathe. It basically shut down their metabolism. They doen't need to eat because they're not burning a lot of energy. They slow down their heart rate, their digestive system, and they just sit there and wait out the cold weather. It's a pretty amazing adaptation."
