This weekend was hard.... it's clear that despite best efforts: fighting with your ex is just going to be inevitable.
And then there's Yoga Girl..... already my stomach hurts just thinking about her.
Then I got an email from a friend... a dear friend. Long story short, she and I actually became friends because (several years ago) she was posting on a mutual friends myspace page about a relative of theirs who had lost their newborn to SIDS - and I sent her an email.
At the time, I was an Area Coordinator for Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. In those days, NILMDTS was still in it's relative infancy and I was one of the three local photogs in Portland who were working to bring the program to our major hospitals in the Portland Metro area (I think there are like 40 photographers from Portland currenlty registered!). Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep is an AM.AZING non-profit organization which provides (free) infant bereavement photography services for families who are facing the demise of their baby - this can be in utero (and we photograph the stillborn baby once it's born), or sometimes it's in a nursery as they turn off the machines, it can be any number of situations - so long as the baby is 25 weeks gestation or more and sadly.... has demised or will demise shortly after birth.
I was the Area Coordinator for St. Vincents at the time (and later brought the program to Kaiser Sunnyside), as well as helping our OHSU coordinator field her calls (one night at OHSU I photographed three different babies for three different reasons!) In the twoish years that I was with NILMDTS, I photographed over 70 babies who sadly.... didn't get to go home with their parents.
That's over 70 Moms who left a hospital with empty arms. Sadly... there are millions more every year.
Calls for sessions came during the day, during birthday parties, holidays and in the middle of the night... because, frankly, death doesn't give a sh*t about anything - it just comes whenever it feels like it. Death... well - I'll be honest, death is ugly, painfully ugly. Babies however... are *always* beautiful. ALWAYS. Whether they live to breathe in your hands, may be never took a single breath at all.... or they take their last breath in your hands: they are always, always beautiful.
Because, those Moms: they lose everything.
They lose it all... and most of the time- for no damn good reason at all. Just .... because.
So I saw the post on myspace and I contacted the lady posting - I'm pretty sure she thought I was an effing freak offering to photograph her relatives now demised infant... but she passed on my info and after that.... she and I became friends.
Several years later..... I would read a post from that same lady (who was now a good friend) and I knew by the title of the post that nothing good was going to come her way.... They were pregnant and had been for their ultrasound that day.... that day, her life fell apart. That day, her hopes and dreams died a very slow, painful and public death. That day, they found out that their baby boy had anencephaly. This is a condition where the brain doesn't grow and, often, there is no skull past the eyebrows and the head is fully exposed. It is what doctors consider "incompatible with life".
I guess, sometimes, it's a perk having a friend who isn't afraid to talk about the impending death of your unborn child, the challenges about with it, how to try to deal with it. I think I was able to be there for her in ways most of her other friends couldn't be there... and sadly, even some who couldn't handle what she was facing - just stopped being friends with her.
She would call me angry and crying and pissed.... sooooo pissed. And rightfully so. She was young and healthy and ate organic... organic dammit! She exercised (no 40s of malt liquor and heavy smoking for her! lolol) - and yet... here she was with the sh*ttiest of news - each day bringing her both emotionally closer to her child and yet one day closer to his burial.
Now that... THAT is brutal.
I would tell her EVERY. SINGLE. TIME she called: that she had already gotten what she wanted: a son.
That her son was hers - and he was already perfectly who he was meant to be. That she needed to accept him and the very short like he would have and try to come to terms with the fact that there wouldn't be more days... or in her case, even a few more hours. She was blessed to have the time she would have and she should spend it loving him - because, as I promised her, she would have a lifetime to cry over him, but only a few short hours to hold him. We are all destined to live the lives we are meant to live from the moment we're conceived. Period. I would tell her over and over that every life is important and valuable and the amount of time of that life IS NOT important. No one ever say's.... "Crap, if Grandma had lived a more day - I would've loved her more...."
Love is love. It doesn't understand time. I think that's one of the few places love and death collide: neither of them gives a sh*t about time.
I have to learn to accept that my marriage is what it was meant to be. Perhaps it wasn't meant to see those Golden Years... perhaps it wasn't supposed to "stand the test of time". I can't celebrate its brutal, unfair and untimely ending.... but I *can* still try to celebrate the good times, the days that were happy - and certainly the years that brought me my own sweet, wonderful, amazing babies.
And I should just effing sack-up and (emotionally) move-on already!
No one died.... *I* was lucky - I shed 240lbs of cheating asswh*le...... period..... no infant casket was required for that. And, when you stop and think about that: infant casket. I don't think there is a more cruel, unfair collection of words in the entirety of the English language: infant casket. They just don't belong together.
I often think of my Moms, that look of love and pain and betrayal in their eyes is... well, it's just not something you ever forget. The loss of their babies... each and every one, is like a stain on my heart - a beautiful reminder that life is NEVER long enough and we shouldn't take a second of what we have for granted. I know this sounds strange.... but I never understood life until I held death in my hands.
PS...if you wanna' read about Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep click on the link. It is a wonderful non-profit org. and if you have anyone in your life facing infant demise, please pass that link on to them. Also.... if you're one of those ladies like me - who now owns a wedding dress you no longer need to enshrine as a "symbol" of your love and marriage - you can donate it to these AMAZING ladies at HAIN - who will cut it up and make the most gorgeous gowns for the babies that NILMDTS work with.
Thanks honey and I am glad I helped in some "small" way. :) PLEASE DO NOT TEAR APART YOUR HARD DRIVES. I am sure they are here somewhere. :) <3 you.
Reading your blog as I rock my sleeping two month old with tears streaming down my cheeks, you are such a caring and giving person Elle. NILMDTS is a beautiful charity and it takes a strong person to step forward and help with such a delicate situation. You are always helping those in need, and I will never forget how you helped us with Mikayla, she wasn't an infant but she was a child and the pictures you took of her were gorgeous, you were an angel to us it was as if that photo session was meant to be.
You seem like such a nice person. I wish you lots of luck, but with your attitude I think you'll make your own. Keep on smiling, it shows in your blog :) Oh, yeah, and to hell with the haters!
This quote, though was the bomb: "*I* was lucky - I shed 240lbs of cheating asswh*le...... period....." I'm divorced, too, and appreciated the chuckle!!


The DA meter is an instrument that, by means of absorbance properties enables measurement of the chlorophyll content in fruit. The chlorophyll content is a precise index of the fruits ripening state, is very accurate and is not affected by any environmental factors.
Technology 49 (2008) 319-329. Units are now commercially available in Australia for use on some fresh fruit cultivars. No work has been completed for canning peach varieties and to become effective a separate calibration and development of the specific DA index for that variety needs to be done. Absorbance properties vary for individual fruit varieties but once the initial calibration is completed the DA index can be applied for this variety in subsequent seasons without the need for re-calibration.
This project aims to develop a calibration curve for the five major canning peach varieties: Tatura 204, Tatura 215, Tatura Blaze, Golden Queen and Taylor Queen.


I knew this subject matter would stir a little controversy and was hesitant to write it. Divorce is never easy and is fraught with challenges. I wrote this to help parents stay in tune with their child's needs before, during and after divorce. Tough but important subject!

Tropical Storm Vicente made landfall and weakened quickly to a tropical depression on Oct. 23. NOAA's GOES-West satellite captured a visible image of the fading, and now post-tropical storm raining on southwestern Mexico.
On Oct. 23 at 2 p.m. EDT (1800 UTC), NOAA's GOES-West satellite provided a visible image of Vicente. The storm appeared almost shapeless, but there was a larger concentration of thunderstorms near its circulation center. Vicente degenerated into a remnant low while moving inland over the Mexican state of Michoacan.
Despite weakening, the NHC cautioned that Vicente's remnants are expected to produce 3 to 6 inches of rain with local amounts to 10 inches through today, Oct. 23, over portions of Guerrero, Michoacan, Colima, and Jalisco in Mexico. This rainfall could produce life-threatening flash flooding and landslides within mountainous terrain.


Available only at The Container Store, our Sand Melamine Shelves are specifically designed to work perfectly with our Elfa Easy Hang or freestanding Shelving Systems as well as our wall-mounted shelving components.

Or, choose a wall-mounted bracket that suits your personal style to create a shelving solution that's specific to you.
Sand Melamine Shelves is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 108.
which width shelf for 24" wide free standing?
I have a 24" wide elfa free standing shelf setup. It is 1 unit wide. Which size solid shelf should I get? The 24" wide shelf or the 25" wide shelf? I looked at the 24" shelf but I was not certain the shelf connectors or pins would sit in the shelf brackets properly. Thanks!
I think I am finding that answer to not be right. I have the 24" free standing stabilization kit. I tried a 24" solid shelf with the plastic connector pins. The pins definitely do not reach to the brackets properly with that configuration. It falls about 1/2" short at least and you have to bend in the brackets in to try to meet the pins - but it just won't fit. I'm thinking the 25" shelf is really the right size for this.
How sturdy are the 30" length shelves?
I plan to use the 8" and 12" melamine shelves for books. I am leaning toward getting the 30" length shelves. Will they be sturdy enough to hold the weight without sagging over time?
Yes, you shouldn't have a problem.
Why do you sell both 24" and 25" long shelves? Can the same hardware be used on either length?
New connecting system. The old system uses connectors under the board while the new system has them on the ends of the boards. Also, matters if you top rail is only 54" long.

Twellman ponders: What if I had a target partner in 2002?
Jonah Freedman
Follow@ jonahfreedman
Roy Lassiter isn't the only one with Wondo envy.
Former Golden Boot winner Taylor Twellman – who once made his own assault on Lassiter's single-season scoring record – thinks the San Jose Earthquakes star is going to get it done as well.
But the former New England Revolution man still thinks it's going to take a herculean effort from Wondo.
"I didn't even know what the record was in 2002, to be honest with you," he told MLSsoccer.com of his own haul a decade ago that ultimately came up four goals short of the record. "Twenty-seven is a ridiculous amount of goals. It really is ridiculous."
Twellman also finished one goal behind Carlos Ruiz for the scoring title that season. But he can't help but wonder what would have happened if the circumstances in New England were just a little bit different.
"I would've absolutely loved – and I always wondered what it would have been like – to play with a target man," he said. "Somebody like Brian McBride, where he's more the target and you can be the second striker."
That's the difference, he believes, this season for Wondo, who is benefitting from the hard work in the box of big men like Steven Lenhart and Alan Gordon.
Twellman never had that kind of partner during his eight-year MLS career, spending most of it alongside Pat Noonan – productively, it must be said. Twellman's 101 career regular-season goals has him ranked at No. 6 on the all-time list.
But just humor his fantasy here for a second: a front-line duo of Twellman and McBride in their prime? Who on earth could stop that one-two punch?

Thirty-five years ago, I worked in a mailroom at a company outside New York City. It was a busy job, but it afforded wonderfully long breaks twice a day where employees would drink coffee and chit-chat. On one particular morning, one of my co-workers was reading one of the tabloids and told us of an article that suggested mosquitoes could spread AIDS. The apocalypse was upon us, he exclaimed, and tossed the paper on the table. I read the story and, indeed, the people quoted were concerned about the possibility of the spread of AIDS by insect bites, but the scientists quoted were dubious. I mentioned that part of the story to my co-worker, and he erupted.
"You don't know!" he said. "Scientists don't know anything about this disease!"
He wasn't the only one to share that sentiment. A pair of White House lawyers, when tasked with writing a briefing memo on AIDS for then President Ronald Reagan, explicitly stated: "There is much to commend the view that we should assume AIDS can be transmitted through casual or routine contact, as is true with many viruses, until it is demonstrated that it cannot be, and no scientist has said AIDS definitely cannot be so transmitted."
As it turned out, they were wrong. AIDS is a blood-borne virus that can't be transmitted casually, but the truth didn't stop Americans in the mid-80s to succumbing to their worst fears and helping usher a dark period of discrimination and prejudice. These were smart, responsible Americans. My co-worker went on to be a police officer, and one of the authors of the AIDS memo went on to become the chief justice of the Supreme Court.
So, here we are again. The world is gripped in terror over something that has exceeded the comprehension of the smartest human beings, and the greater population has been given the green light to freak out.
Don't misunderstand me. COVID-19 is a deadly, incredibly contagious disease that has killed hundreds of thousands and crippled the world economy. All measures should be taken to prevent the spread of this modern plague.
What I don't understand is the polarizing fear and hostility expressed by so many during this crisis. Just take a stroll through some of the comments on social media. Try walking through a supermarket with a mask on. Or, try walking through a supermarket without one. Wearing a mask in one recent trip to the store, I was exposed to two kinds of people: A mask-wearing group furious when I broke six-foot social distancing boundary, and a group apparently disgusted with people wearing masks, stepping over the line with abandon. I had one unmasked guy talk to me a foot away from my face, absolutely delighting in breaking my personal space, and what bugged me the most was not the possibility of catching the coronavirus but the apparent passive-aggressive glee the act spawned.
People are tense and for good reason. But, do you think losing your senses and letting your worst instincts get the better of you is going to carry you through this crisis? What happened to "keep calm and carry on" or "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself?"
Even the smartest among us are not immune to their fears getting to them. I know this successful communications professional who is a master at compiling data to help companies strategically position for the future. His way of working through this crisis was to crunch the data to get a picture of what things are going to look like in the coming weeks. And, guess what? It isn't pretty.
Here's what I do know: No matter what the future holds, people rely on mutual aid to get through the worst times. It's why our primordial forefathers huddled by the fires and why communities were built and currently sustain us.
Several years ago, I wrote in The Observer about the Japanese ideal of community called keiyakuko and how that spirit helped towns and villages wiped off the map by the tsunami of 2011 pull together and survive until help arrived. I challenge Suffield to take measure of its keiyakuko in preparation of difficult times to come. Those times are now.
I'm not going to judge the people who taunt, mock or bully people online. I'm not going to condemn the ones that hoard basic necessities like toilet paper as a hedge against the apocalypse. I'm not going to reprimand those who use this crisis as fodder in pointless political discussions.
Instead, I'm going to ask you to help when and where you can help, even if it's only once, and try to remember, that you are not alone in these trials.
We are all in this together, even if we have to stay six feet apart in public.
Those lucky enough to be well and staying at home have turned…

I share the essential steps to drive traffic to your blog with Pinterest below!
First things first, you may have already heard this a thousand times but I want it to be clear. . . Pinterest is not social media. (gulp for some, others like me are saying "Thank God!") So, your strategy will be different. Pinterest is a search engine!!
Think about it, I know so many people say "I'll search for it on Pinterest!" before they even say the word google. Is your mind blow yet?! Probably not, you're smart!
With that little bit of information, changing your mindset when using Pinterest you can take these top ten tips I have for you and implement.
For real, Always remembering that Pinterest is a search engine!
From a Pinterest Manager, here are my Top 10 Tips for Getting Started on Pinterest!
Do you know who it is you are speaking to? Do you know your person? Who's problems you are solving or what problems of theirs you can solve?
What is your person hopping on Pinterest and searching? This is your content, your Pinterest worthy content! Pinterest will help you and show smart searches, start dropping down more specific topics + will show on your analytics what the top posts your audience is most intrested in.
If you are speaking to everyone, you are speaking to no one! It's true, trust me. . . Need help figuring it out? I got you girl! Use this easy 3 page workbook I give to my clients to figure this out.
2. Set up business account & Activate Rich Pins!
If you are going to get serious and utilize Pinterest to drive traffic, view your analytics, promote pins, etc a Business Account is a must for Pinterest. Don't fret girlfriend, you don't have to completely start from scratch. Most of us have a great history, search, loads of pins, a following and a profile already built. . . You can switch your exisiting one over to a Business Account. It's super easy!
Converting to a business profile will not affect your Pins, boards, and followers.
These steps are from Pinterest!
Activate Rich Pins! This is a MUST!
Pinterest describes it best (obviously) "Rich Pins provide more context about an idea because they show extra information directly on a Pin. There are four types of Rich Pins: app, product, recipe and article." As your site and post updates, so do your rich pins automatically. Recipes are shown broke down with ingredients, etc. Not the instructions though, they have to go to your site for this 🙂 User's can shop pins and install apps. The big one, Rich pins get more visability.
Get your Rich Pins activated on Pinterest at the Rich Pins Validator!
Again, this isn't social media. You don't want to be cute-sy. Your profile description is IMPORTANT. It is searchable. Optimize your keywords here.
Always going back to who your audience is on Pinterest and what problems you are solving for them on your account. Think what can they expect when they land on your page?
Mom of three wild boys. Runs on coffee, paleo and the occasional donut. Lover of chunky sweaters and good books, oh my hubby too!
Recipes for paleo real food grain-free breakfast, lunch, dinner & desserts! Try our easy paleo instant pot recipes for weeknight dinners & weekend appetizers.
You know exactly what to expect out of this Profile and what it is they have to offer.
My friend over at Don't Mess with Mama shows a great example of doing just this!
Or mine with a call to action! Think, what do you want them to do when they land on your profile?
BOOM! Your audience knows what to expect, what your brand is and they most likely landed on it because it's rich in keywords. Now YOU are their person!
I'd say this is one of the most important thing to do! I keep you reminding you Pinterest is a search engine and with search engines, you need keywords. These are the words your audience will be searching to find your pin.
Get in the mind of your audience/your person, how or what will they be searching? What will they type in Pinterest? How would you look for it?
Ask yourself: What problem is this pin trying to solve? Go to Pinterest and start typing that in the search bar, it will generate the most popular searches in the drop down. Once you choose one it will also have more specific searches/keywords just under the search bar. These girlfriend are gold and have helped you come up with your Pinterest Keywords / SEO! use these in your description to make sentences and/or a paragraph make it flow nicely.
If you didn't already know it Pinterest has its own standards for images. Every once in a while Pinterest may change the suggested sizing a little. However, something that's stayed tried and true, long Pins are good Pins!
Max Recommendation: min. 600px x max.1260px (this the max that will keep your pins from getting cut off of cropped in the feeds) and at a 2:3 ratio.
I personally just avoid the first sizing and go for somewhere inbetween the bottom two. Here is an example of one of my Pinterest images that preforms well. It's sizing is 735px x 1100 px.
It may seem overwhelming but you can use easy tools like Canva to get the job done even if you are a beginner! Keep it simple. Stick to two or three fonts at most. Stay on brand, use your Keywords and don't forget to watermark it!
Still feeling lost and just need a paint by numbers template? I get it! I've made a couple for you to use 🙂 One like the above and another with a top and bottom photo with a middle description box. You can just plug in pictures and your title or get creative and edit it more.
Grab your FREE Pinterest Image Templates to edit in Canva here!
P.S. I can even just create them for you! Yup, I'll do it all for you!
You can build a save button/widget to your website here! Once this is installed you can open your desired site and save your pins by clicking the widget.
On next page select "Upload from website" on the bottom left.
Add your URL you want to pin from.
Pick a board for your Pin and add a description with Pinterest Keywords.
**Pro Tip: Add all new pins to a board with your website name as the board. Then re-pin to niche boards and groups from there!
7. Schedule it, use and love it!
Tailwind this is the only Pinterest trusted scheduler! Your business is running even when you are sleeping, your profile is analyzed with optimum times to pin, suggested pins, sending to groups, your boards + analytics. Your pins catch traction, get in front of not just your people but the followers of followers. driving traffic, numbers, readers, people who needed that post and all while monetizing. It takes the hassle out and no more hours on your phone and computer. You can set it and forget it. Spend time with who you love and/or doing what you love.
If you talk to anyone who is doing well from Pinterest and ask when did things take off? after website, content and committing it was scheduling with Tailwind. It's worth it to sign up and get your stuff out there! You will see the ROI!
Apply for groups on Pinterest. It's a great hub to share your content with others within that posts niche, have it reshared, your share others and gain traffic. Don't know where to start looking for groups to join? Keep an eye on FB Blogging Groups or go to Pingroupie to find groups in the catagory you are after!
Tribes are on Tailwind. They are incredible! I'm finding as of now that they are an incredible resource and more beneficial than groups. They are well managed. Have a sharing ratio ex 1:1 aka I upload one of my pins to the tribe I must repin/schedule someone else's. Remeber sharing really is caring! There is a counter to help keep track too. Plus it's Easy to schedule/repin others as you are within Tailwind.
UTILIZE groups and tribes to get momentum. The best way to get your content in front of others and gain traction, trust and top pins!
Plan your content ahead of time and start pinning for the season, holiday and trends a month or two in advance. This gives your pins time to gain traction, get in front of people in time to plan and actually use your content. A great guide to help you with this can be found at Simple Pin. Their Ultimate Pinterest Planner is an incredible free planner! This is a great starting point!
Forecast your audience and go back to your avatar/person and what they will be needing in the months to come. Start creating for that, pinning based on what they will be searching and pinning.
Which leads us into the last tip!
10. Refresh your old stuff!
Kind of refreshing itself right! You don't have to always be a content machine. Freshen up your old content that will be of value in the coming months. Update old photos, SEO and make new Pinterest images. Give that baby life again and start scheduling her! I'll bet you have some amazing posts that could be dusted off. Think of all the people who need that post and have yet to see it. Whoa!
Remember it can be a slow burn and has its seasons! Depending on how you excute these tips it can be slow depending on how often you pin, share, schedule and your content. A hard pill to swallow sometimes is the Pinterest season that everyone experiences. Why are there seasons? Good for the human race to take media breaks, our season of life or the time of year take us away from our phones. The "slower" times are made up in the BIG months!

T20 World Cup Final: Marsh comes good; Finch is toss boss; Kane's one-handed effort
11/15/2021 Sport Comments Off on T20 World Cup Final: Marsh comes good; Finch is toss boss; Kane's one-handed effort
T20 World Cup Final, Emotional Rollercoaster: Australia are great again, beating New Zealand by eight wickets to emerge as T20 World Cup champions.
Mitch Perfect
Mitchell Marsh had both the pedigree and performance to be a match-winner. Being the son of Geoff Marsh and baby brother of Shaun had its pitfalls, but also perks. He got a longer rope. You thought twice before dropping Marsh. Having led Australia to the under-19 World Cup title in 2010, he had proved that the apple hadn't tumbled away too far from the tree. As expected he graduated to the senior team in 2011. That's when his growth stopped. Injuries did play a role but Mitchell couldn't cement his place in the side. The old joke about him being the "third best" batsman in his family was repeated so often that it lost its sting. For more than a decade, the Aussies waited for him to turn into at least Shaun, if not Geoff. Just last month he turned 30. How can a one-time prodigy be a late-bloomer? Time was running out. Mitchell saved his best for a game that Australia was desperate to win. The once mighty cricket nation showed they weren't slipping, they could excel at the game's most famous format too. And for that they needed to thank Marsh III. After his game-changing hand, the glee on his face and the genuine joy of those around him showed how important the inning was for him and for Australia. Always the team team, Mithchell till very recently was once more famous for being the team's vlogger. He would move around with his camera in the dressing room speaking to the star performers. At Dubai on Sunday, there was a queue to interview the man of the moment.
It was all yellow… again
Amidst the sea of fielders dressed in black a few 'pitch-invaders' in yellow made their way onto the turf before the ball could get to the ropes. If this was a Harry Potter flick, this would be when Albus Dumbledore waved his hand, or wand, and the scarlet decorations portraying West Indies' domination would be replaced by the yellow banners of the new T20 World Champions, Australia. Then again, at the venue in Dubai, the decorators need not search for the required colours. It'll already be there since just a short while ago the Chennai Super Kings – the yellow-wearing victors of the IPL – had stormed the ground to win the title.
Wobble, Wade and watch, wicket
Matthew Wade, the man who doesn't love wicketkeeping, dropped a catch from Daryl Mitchell, off Glenn Maxwell. But a over later, he had his redemption and lunged forward to remove Mitchell, off Josh Hazlewood this time. Mitchell had shaped for a cut, off Maxwell and got an inside edge and it did dip and not easy but we have seen better keepers take that. Wade had his eyes off the ball. Not sure how he has been off the field in the nights before the games in this tournament, but when he was keeping in Tests, by his own admission he would be a nervous wreck. "The night a game before I would be stressed about keeping – for 10 years I did that," Wade had once said. "I was like 'oh I have got to keep tomorrow, I hope I don't f*** it up'. You have so many things you are thinking about when you are down in your squat, hundreds of them. Your mind is ticking all the time. I was absolutely toast by the end of the Test. Luckily for him, Mitchell gave another chance which he grabbed. The nerves would have eased.
UnFinching success at toss 139 words
Aaron Finch's toss luck has to be his rivals' envy and Australia's pride. Winning six out of seven tosses in a tournament where batting second has offered a distinct advantage, cancels out luck factor and defies the probability theory. No wonder, the Australia white-ball captain looked happy after winning the toss in the final and his Kiwi counterpart Kane Williamson opted for indifference. Williamson had to take Finch's toss luck with a pinch of salt. The Aussie skipper reckoned that the pitch for the final was a "bit drier than the one from the other night (semifinal)"and hoped that it would "skid on" (later). Phlegmatically, Williamson admitted that he would have chosen to field as well. "Who knows about the dew, but important we focus on that task at hand," he said at the toss.
Hazlewood in a haze
Can't really blame Josh Hazlewood for dropping a catch of Kane Williamson. Perhaps he was stunned that the batsman had actually hit a ball with some power. Shocked that it reached near the boundary. Surprised that he had to wake up suddenly on the field. Until, then, it had seemed a slow stinker of a game, meandering along on a two-paced pitch. It was a slower full toss from Mitch Starc in the 11 hover and Williamson was done in by the change of pace but went through just with his front hand and the ball flew to deep backward square-leg where Hazlewood clanged it. That woke up Williamson, who hit two more successive fours – a straight drive and a pull to bring some drama into sombre proceedings.
Kane's or Cairns? Two men, one-handed 6
Was it Kane Williamson or Lance Cairns, circa 1983? Chris's father Lance and his one-handed six with his famous Excalibur bat off Dennis Lillee is part of folklore in New Zealand. Kane did it off far more gentler pace of Glenn Maxwell. It was floated on the leg stump line and Williamson went for the big heave-ho and took his top hand off the handle and flung the ball over midwicket boundary. Just like Lance did 38 years ago. Of late, Rishabh Pant has been popular with the one-handed six. Now Kane joins in. He had already a one-handed four – that drop catch by Josh Hazlewood – and now a stunning six.
3 metres… this way or that
Aaron Finch won't be complaining about the three-metre rule in DRS situations that saved him from a lbw decision. He didn't last long, holing out to the deep, but let's return to that lbw appeal. Already standing outside the crease, he skipped further down but missed the no-backer from Trent Boult and was struck on the pad. The umpire denied the appeal and New Zealand didn't go for the DRS as it was clear that the point of impact was over 3 metres.
In 2018, Finch was on the other side of the 3m rule and found it very strange and had wanted a rule change. "About the three metres … pitching in line, hitting in line, hitting the stumps – to me that's strange. Where 3m is down the wicket, if it's still hitting the stumps and hitting in line can we tinker the rule. I know it's sounding sour at the moment because we've been on the receiving end, but it's certainly not. We understand where the rule's at now. but maybe if it's hitting in line and if all three (pitching point, impact with pad, impact with stumps) are still red, maybe there's a chance to overturn it." This time, he was saved because of that same rule. But it didn't last long as Boult saw him advancing down the track and fired in a short one to take him out.
Like an 80's boomer calci
Remember the Casio calculator – MG880 was it? – from the 1980s. It used to have a silly little game on it. Looking back they had the graphics much better than the all-new latest fad from the broadcasters of the T20 world cup. The graphic of batsmen running between the wickets while the camera follows the fielder is occasionally shown on the left-hand side of the screen in a sidebar. It's so retro – not necessarily nice romantic retro but Boomer tech. It looks artificial and so low-tech.

IDPC recommendations for the "ZERO DRAFT" of the UNGASS outcome document
International Drug Policy Consortium (IDPC)
Preparations are gathering pace for the United Nations General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on drugs, to be held on the 19th to 21st April 2016 in New York. Following several months of discussion on procedural elements, attention is now focused on negotiating the content of the "short, substantive, concise and action-orientated outcome document comprising a set of operational recommendations" to be approved by the General Assembly next April. At the CND intersessional meeting on 12th June, countries and regional groups were invited to submit their first ideas for what could be included in this Outcome Document, by a deadline of 11th September.

The seven steps of drug policy reform in Ecuador
Jorge Vicente Paladines Rodríguez
Ecuador has entered a new era in drug policy and legislation. Twenty-five years after the last major legal reform, brought about by the famed Narcotic and Psychotropic Substances Law (Ley de Sustancias Estupefacientes y Psicotrópicas, Law 108), which took effect on September 17, 1990, the National Assembly is about to debate—for the second and final time—the draft Law on Prevention of Drugs and Use or Consumption of Substances Classified as Subject to Oversight (Ley de Prevención de Drogas y Uso y Consumo de Sustancias Catalogadas Sujetas a Fiscalización.)
Legalise cannabis in Luxembourg?
Luxembourg's Parliament is to debate the decriminalisation of consumption of cannabis, the health minister said while outlining a new drug prevention programme. The minister said she hoped to raise awareness among young people of the risks surrounding cannabis consumption as well as the use of other, legal drugs, such as alcohol and tobacco.
'You will not be arrested for using drugs'
Authorities in the Netherlands are warning Amsterdam tourists about heroin masquerading as cocaine, which has already killed several people and sent a number of others to the hospital.
Taking Control: Pathways to Drug Policies that Work
The upcoming United Nations General Assembly Special Session on Drugs (UNGASS) in 2016 is an unprecedented opportunity to review and re-direct national drug control policies and the future of the global drug control regime. As diplomats sit down to rethink international and domestic drug policy, they would do well to recall the mandate of the United Nations, not least to ensure security, human rights and development.
Former world leaders call for nations to decriminalize drug use and experiment with legalization
Drug use should be decriminalized and governments should experiment with drug legalization and regulation, a group of former world leaders argues in a new report. The recommendations from the Global Commission on Drug Policy reflect the views of the former leaders of some of the countries hardest hit by the illegal drug trade. They strongly argue that a costly global war on drugs has not only failed but threatens public health, fosters discrimination and fuels the very crime and violence it seeks to prevent. (See also: Coalition urges nations to decriminalize drugs and drug use)
Decriminalize drug use and public health
Canada's war on drugs has caused serious harm, particularly for the nation's most vulnerable, according to a Canadian Public Health Association (CPHA) policy paper. The report, A New Approach to Managing Psychoactive Substances, calls for the decriminalization of drugs such as marijuana, heroin and cocaine, as well as strategies to reduce harm and address the social conditions underlying problem substance use.
Coffee Shops and Compromise
Jean-Paul Grund, Joost Breeksema
Building on a long history and culture of tolerance, the Dutch responded to illicit drugs with decades of pragmatic measures free of judgment. A central element of modern Dutch drug policy was a crucial decision to establish a legal and practical separation of cannabis—judged to pose "acceptable" risks to consumers and society—from hard drugs associated with unacceptable risk. This policy effectively decriminalized possession and use of cannabis and opened the door for tolerated outlets for small-scale cannabis sales that eventually took the form of the well-known Dutch "coffee shops."
Coffee Shops and Compromise(pdf, 660.29 KB)
Report calls for decriminalizing both 'hard' and 'soft' drugs
The personal use of illegal drugs, including heroin and crack cocaine, should be decriminalized as part of a federal-provincial strategy to tackle drug abuse, the Canadian Drug Policy Coalition argues. Their report, Getting To Tomorrow, denounces the Harper government's aggressive war on drugs, which puts the emphasis on law enforcement while steering money away from harm-reduction initiatives like Vancouver's supervised injection site. (See also: Call to legalize 'hard' drugs meets opposition)
Portuguese drug policy shows that decriminalisation can work
The Home Affairs Select Committee in the United Kingdom report on drug policy draws on lessons from Portugal's decriminalisation of drug possession and puts forward a case for the UK reconsidering its own policies. Alex Stevens assesses the situation in Portugal, noting that while decriminalisation has coincided with a fall in the most problematic forms of drug use, it is not the only factor. (See also: Portugal: Ten Years After Decriminalization)
Bogotá's medical care centres for drug addicts (CAMAD)
Julián Quintero
In September 2012, the mayor of Bogotá, Gustavo Petro, launched the first centre for drug addicts in the Bronx, a marginalised city-centre neighbourhood. Called the Medical Care Centre for Dependent Drug Users (Centro de Atención Médica a Drogodependientes - CAMAD), it is staffed by psychiatrists, psychologists, doctors and nurses. The people given care in these centres are in an at-risk situation and socially excluded due to their high levels of drug dependency.

Drug use is an issue for society, not the criminal justice system
Richard Horton, editor-in-chief of The Lancet
There is no reliable evidence that tougher criminal sanctions deter drug use or offending. On the contrary, criminalisation worsens the health and wellbeing of drug users, increases risk behaviours, drives the spread of HIV, encourages other crime and discourages drug users from seeking treatment. A report by Australia21, Alternatives to Prohibition, subtitled Illicit drugs: how we can stop killing and criminalising young Australians, sets out the lessons learnt about the failed war on drugs from other countries, especially Sweden, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Portugal.
Once a model, crisis imperils Portugal's drug programme
Portugal's famously liberal drug policy has been held up as a model for other countries - Norway is considering adopting parts of it and countries as far afield as Argentina have expressed interest. But experts warn that budget cuts and the threat of more cuts to come - combined with an increase in hard drug abuse - risk turning it into a shadow of its former self. "We have a certain responsibility to maintain the essential despite the recession," said Joao Goulao, the national drugs agency chief. "Other countries do look at us and seek our expertise."
"In Portugal, We Fight the Illness, Not the People Who Suffer from It"
Portugal's anti-drug policies have been gaining international visibility since this country's 2001 decision to eliminate all criminal penalties for personal possession of drugs. Decriminalisation of drug consumption, still opposed by political sectors like the right, was made possible by "favourable public opinion…it arose from society," where virtually every family had a member or friend with a drug abuse problem, says João Goulão president of this country's Institute on Drugs and Drug Addiction.
Czech Republic exemplifies smart and humane drug policy
Joanne Csete (OSI Global Drug Policy Program)
There is nothing politically easier in most countries than scapegoating drugs and drug users as the source of all social problems. Politicians can expect a boost in their popularity when they support repressive measures against drugs and are dismissive of public services for people who use illicit drugs.
Saying No to Costly Drug Laws
Aleksander Kwasniewski
In the year 2000, as the president of Poland, I signed one of Europe's most conservative laws on drug possession. Any amount of illicit substances a person possessed meant they were eligible for up to three years in prison. Our hope was that this would help to liberate Poland, and especially its youths, from drugs that not only have a potential to ruin the lives of the people who abuse them but also have been propelling the spread of HIV among people who inject them. We were mistaken on both of our assumptions.
Towards a smarter drugs policy
Keith Humphreys, Jonathan Caulkins
The loudest voices in US drug policy debates call either for enforcing prohibition with ever-increasing ferocity or for giving up altogether by letting corporations legally sell the currently illicit drugs much as they do tobacco and alcohol. But as our colleagues and we detail this week in the Lancet, there is an alternative: adopting drug policies with scientific evidence of effectiveness. Regardless of what goals for drug policy emerge from the democratic process, everyone wants the policies implemented in the service of those goals to be effective.
Drug Policy in the Andes
Coletta Youngers, Socorro Ramírez
Fifty years after signing the United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs and 40 years after the U.S. government declared a "war on drugs," many obstacles remain despite the partial successes of efforts to counter the problem. The Andean-United States Dialogue Forum, noted with concern how drug policy has monopolized the diplomatic and economic agenda between the Andean countries, contributing to tensions among the governments and impeding cooperation on other crucial priorities, such as safeguarding democratic processes from criminal networks.

The Global Commission: breaking the Vienna Consensus
Martin Jelsma
TNI has been closely involved with the Global Commission on Drug Policy which presented its report in New York on June 2. Some years ago we published a report, entitled Cracks in the Vienna Consensus in which we argued that cracks were appearing in the supposedly universal model under the UN treaty system. In reality, the global system is based on a highly fragile consensus of Vienna, where the UN drug control system is headquartered, and the painstaking negotiations every year to keep up the appearance of unity have become the symbol of paralysis and frustration.
Global Commission on Drug Policy Report
The global war on drugs has failed, with devastating consequences for individuals and societies around the world. Fifty years after the initiation of the UN Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, and 40 years after President Nixon launched the US government's war on drugs, fundamental reforms in national and global drug control policies are urgently needed.

Specialization: Genjutsu in primary or secondary.
Elements: Fūton as Primary, Nothing as secondary.
Clan History: The Kazekan Clan is a clan of Fūton specialists with tribal roots. This clan during the time in which it was a nomadic tribe within the Land of Wind wished to wield and control the dry, harsh winds of the desert, bending it to their wills in order to use as both weapons and instruments. During their travels, the tribe came across the method of which to do exactly that. After a child is born specially made needles are inserted into the bodies and limbs, avoiding the vital organs, of course. As they grow older, the tribe replaces those needles with slightly bigger ones, creating holes within their bodies which would heal over time, the specially made needles allowing for those holes to create similar sounds to that of a wind instrument, which members of the clan use to create rather devastating sound-based Genjutsu.
When members of the clan reach the age of nine years of age, they are given the gift to creatively express themselves through their holes, choosing which ones to make bigger and bigger and which ones to allow to shrink slightly, allowing for their bodies to create different tunes accustomed to them. A side effect to this, however, is that in order for the holes to stay clean and not have them clogged or anything of the sort, members of the tribe would generally keep themselves covered up outside of battle or celebration, preferring to wear long-sleeved clothing or even wraps, if they feel like being cheap imitations of a mummy. The clan has adopted this tribe's tradition continuously, even after they mostly stopped being nomadic and instead joined Sunagakure as means to further strengthen the village, allowing their members to either join the village or set out as Ronin when they reach the age of fourteen, as per the agreement for their joining the village as a whole.
Due to being a relatively young clan, and due to some of their young not surviving the process of becoming living wind instruments, the clan isn't relatively large, but only slightly less than normal-sized.
Kekkei Genkai Description: Members of the clan have holes going through their bodies, which vary in size. These holes were designed so when wind blows through them, they create a musical sound. The bigger the hole, the lower the pitch, the small the hole, the louder the pitch. This allows them to utilize Fūton in order to create music with their own bodies, and as a result making them capable of creating creative techniques and jutsu with their own bodies, as well.
-Due to the holes in their bodies creating constant sound, sound-based Genjutsu used by them becomes harder to break, requiring the target to have a perception of two tiers higher than normal to break a sound-based technique, or to have one post in preparation time before using Kai to break the sound-based Genjutsu.
-Members of the clan receive free E-Rank body wrappings upon creation, which has no actual use outside of keeping their holes from getting foreign objects inserted into them.
-Because their holes utilize Fūton in order to create sound, members of the clan are allowed to create sound-based techniques of any kind in more than just Genjutsu without the need of an instrument.
[b]Description:[/b] This individual is incredibly physically frail. They bruise easily, and their bones are more brittle than most. Where most individuals would suffer a simple fracture, an individual with frail will suffer a broken bone. Wounds they receive also bleed for longer without medical attention.
-Because all members of the clan specialize in Fūton, they neglected the other elements overall, making it so they can only start with Fūton as their primary element, and must train in order to take a secondary.
-Due to their bodies tending to automatically have wind flow through them and due to their devotion to Fūton as a whole, Katon is seen as a rather dangerous element to practice in, requiring members of the clan to suffer a 10% increase in wc for training and learning Katon and Katon-based techniques, as they must spend extra time mastering it so the flames do not accidentally burn them as well when they use them.
-Because their bodies automatically create noise due to the wind, members of the clan cannot use any sort of stealth-based technique.
One full rank higher perception seems a bit much. Reduce to 2 tiers for balance purposes.
Edited, though I'd like to disagree with you. One doesn't need medical as a specialization in order to perform body modification. In fact, this clan was both based on real life situations where people have pierced parts of their bodies since birth so they can increase the size of the holes and on people that have done other such things, such as using rings to increase the lengths of their necks, and those people were generally tribal, with no sophisticated medical experience. The inspiration primarily came from a man in Hunter x Hunter whom of which didn't have any sort of medical specialization as well. In fact, he came from a tribe of warriors. The body modification came from a young age and the maintenance is more common sense than anything else, meaning that generally someone else had to do the piercing, which in turn means that it wouldn't make much sense for the user to have medical as their specialization unless they're the one doing then piercing for other tribe members. The modification of the holes can essentially be chocked up to a similar thing people do with gauges, where they increase and decrease the size of the gauge in order to adjust their ear-holes, and those same people generally don't have any real medical experience.
I also already stated there is nothing in the second element up above in the elements area, not to mention I already stated it in the drawbacks as well.
"-Because all members of the clan specialize in Fūton, they neglected the other elements overall, making it so they can only start with Fūton as their primary element, and must train in order to take a secondary."
Your body modification is A-OK; if you were trained medics, you wouldn't have Frail.
I need clarification on your drawback; you don't say you can have a secondary element, why do you need Hesitant (Element)? I'm only assuming here; if you can't have a secondary, how can you have a tertiary? It may be easier to say 'can only have a primary element and may not learn any others'.

It's another trip back in the Comics Misremembered time machine. Next stop, 1995 – Grunge rock is king, flannel is what you are wearing and you are super interested in the upcoming Marvel Event: Age of Apocalypse.
It's the summer time so that means Marvel is putting together another mutant crossover event that will run through the summer months and into fall. Marvel has been doing this for years up to this point and the events have been decent. This new one, Age of Apocalypse seems different though since it starts with the cancellation of all the current 1995 roster of mutant books. What??!
Join Jon and me as we fire up our neurotransmitters and misremember the Age of Apocalypse crossover event and what we really liked about it.
We highly recommend checking out all the books that are part of this series and see how it will compare with the upcoming summer Fox movie Age of Apocalypse.

Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun (Season 1)
Sold by his parents to a demon named Sullivan, Iruma Suzuki's future seems bleak, but Sullivan really wanted Iruma so he could indulge a desire to be a doting grandfather- AND Sullivan's rich. There's still a problem, though: Sullivan enrolls Iruma in a demon school (called Bablys), and Iruma must somehow pass AS a demon to survive there.
I'd note at the beginning that this show is not always terribly original; it borrows concepts from several other sources. Of course, the treatment of Iruma by his parents is reminiscent of Hayate's treatment by HIS (Hayate the Combat Butler), though maybe somewhat worse; Hayate's parents, as I recall, just used their son as collateral for a debt (and then skipped town), which is maybe marginally less evil than pro-actively selling a demon one's offspring- and apparently Iruma's parents had been exploiting Iruma for quite some time before finally selling him off.
Iruma has some other traits that will seem familiar from other shows. He can't say no to a request (see Komori-san Can't Decline), AND he has Hayate's ability to literally dodge everything thrown at him. (He's also aided in "passing" as a demon by a streak of pure luck a mile wide, and by being given a little demon magical ability through a ring that Sullivan gives him.) But it isn't just some of Iruma's traits that seem awfully familiar; the "Demon School Bablys" bears a startling resemblance to a certain famous School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. For example, it has courses on spellcasting (!), and botany (called "diabotany" here.) In fairness, I have to note that the botany (OK, "diabotany") instructor here hews much closer to certain anime tropes than to Hogwart's Professor Sprout. The show does, in fact, try to put its own little spin on the stuff it steals; for example, in appearance AND demeanor (especially toward the show's hero) Kalego Naberius might be Severus Snape's long-lost twin brother, but the show does give him a peculiar connection to Iruma (which Kalego is not a BIT happy about.)
I'll note here that despite the reputation of demons (and even the Bablys school song, with its line "humans are our food"), the demon world in Iruma-kun is nevertheless strangely insular. Interactions between demons and humans seem largely legally restricted (or prohibited), and some of the Bablys students even think the very existence of humans is a myth, school song or no.
Iruma gets two steadfast friends among his demon classmates. Alice Asmodeus (male, despite the name) develops a worshipful attitude toward Iruma, despite the fact that Iruma, in reality, is neither demon, nor magical, himself. (It's that weird luck of Iruma's, and as mentioned Sullivan's magic ring, that enable him to fool almost everyone.) Asmodeus, on the other hand, is quite a powerful demon, though usually quite a stickler for rules and decorum. This makes him the "straight man" in comical opposition (or at least it's intended to be comical) to Iruma's other close friend, Clara Valac.
Clara's supposed to be a teenager, but she ACTS like a rambunctious kindergarten child- a rambunctiousness augmented by demon magic. Her immaturity also means she's not one bit sexy- a point the show ITSELF explicitly makes. She's pure Id, and is usually used for physical comedy and general chaos-creation, some of which worked for me, and some didn't. She's got other business going on as well: she has pockets on her skirt that serve as cornucopias, and her family is musical, kind of like The Sound of Music's von Trapps - IF the von Trapps only knew one tune. (The Valacs get more mileage out of that one tune by changing the lyrics to suit the current situation.) I do have to admit that I found the plant Clara grew in Diabotany class to be a genuinely hilarious reflection of her nature.
Then there's Ameri Azazel. She's head of the Student Council, an amazon who's strict about enforcing rules; really, I thought she and Asmodeus should have gotten together, but she sets her sights on Iruma, at first for a very specific reason: she realizes Iruma's human (none of Iruma's other classmates, including Asmodeus and Clara, know this), but she doesn't turn him in because he can read human language, and so can read her collection of human "sacred texts" (shoujo manga) to her. Ameri, and Sullivan's non-gender-specific aide Opera, were my personal favorites in the show.
There are several other classmates of Iruma's who are given names and some particular characteristics: Keroli Crocell, an apparently timid glasses-girl who leads a double life; Sabro Sabnock, a hulking braggart who thinks his aggressiveness should make him a shoo-in to become the next Demon King; Kamui Caim, an owllike demon (not all the demons look human) who's always trying to score with the ladies (and always failing), among several others. Presumably the large cast is intended to provide fodder for more stories (and a Second Season of the show is indeed planned.)
I HATED the hip-hoppy opening song (and didn't particularly like the closing song, either.)
As is customary the show does have a villain to create some suspense in the later episodes. Of that person, we'll only say that they learned exactly the wrong lesson from a personal tragedy. The show's villain is intended to be pathetic rather than contemptible, and the resolution of this plotline I found kind of anticlimactic.
It's a pleasant show, and occasionally its comedy works well enough, but it didn't really engage my interest much of the time. Asmodeus and Clara after a while seemed one-note sorts of sidekicks, and Clara's random antics were a mixed bag humor-wise. It's a "cute" show, but I found it neither profound, nor moving, nor even screamingly funny- with the exception of Clara's plant, that is! — Allen Moody
Recommended Audience: Mild violence, mature situations. I don't recall any nudity (even in succubus class!) We'll say PG-13

Fine Cut is currently in it's 19th season. Be sure to watch this year's student films and vote for the viewer's choice award winner.
My name is Marco Williams. I am a filmmaker and a film educator. I have been making films for more than thirty years. I have been teaching filmmaking for twenty-five years. I have been associated with seven different film programs in my career. I learned filmmaking at Harvard. I received a MFA from UCLA in their Producer's Program. I have taught at The University of North Carolina School of the Arts, Duke University, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, New York University, and Northwestern University in Qatar.
This background does not make me an authority on the question of, "why consider film school," if one wants to make films. But, it has given me the opportunity to reflect on the merits of attending film school. And yes, students that I have taught have gone on to have fantastic careers, as well as having struggled after graduation to make a living making films.
What follows is a list of reasons for attending film school. It is general. I do not make distinction of undergraduate or graduate program, nor do I delineate a fiction versus a non-fiction program. My goal is to provide you with information, ideas, and perspectives to help you undertake the journey of why to consider film school if you want to make films.
What I elect not to do is to give the other side of the argument. For every point that I make, I or someone else could make a counter argument. I trust you can do this yourself.
Going to film school gives you an opportunity to develop your own creative voice. This is hard, though not impossible to do, when you're working production on someone else's film, You are only helping with someone else's vision. Film school carves out the time to develop yourself artistically. What a benefit. This is potentially even more critical for women and people of color, people with disabilities, and/or members of the LBGTQ community.
Film school creates community. You grow with a cohort of classmates. Upon graduation you might be inclined to create a film company with fellow graduates. Also, filmmaking is a network-driven field. People get jobs from the connections they make at film school.
At film school women, students of color, veterans, LBGTQ, and disabled students get access and resources, unlike in the industry, which is dominated by and geared toward straight, white males.
Film school education provides mentorship. Professors provide critique and support of your growth as an emerging filmmaker. This is not to be taken for granted. The professional ranks do not necessarily provide such support.
A film school education provides access to ideas, some of which will challenge you. You get forced to see and think things you wouldn't necessarily find easily outside of the academy. Where are you going to learn about "Black is... Black Ain't"? Where are you going to have an in-depth discussion about a Bruce Conner film, or feminist filmmaking, the French New Wave, or African Cinema?
Film school teaches you to perform each role on a film: direct, film (not "shoot" let's retire that triggering word), edit, produce, camera operation, write, grip, art direct, animate. You are taught documentary production, fiction production, experimental, etc.
If your desire is to make films, I would encourage you to apply to film school. If you're going to consider film school, there are many things to consider when deciding where to go. There is a proliferation in the last decade plus of film schools and film programs, which makes the choice of where to apply even more challenging.
In Southern California there is UCLA, USC, Chapman, Cal Arts, St. Mary's, UC Irvine, UC San Diego, Cal state Long Beach, Cal State Fullerton.
I'm sure I've forgotten a school or two or three.
As you think about film school, certainly, cost would be first and foremost. What is the tuition? Does the school provide financial and equipment resources for you to create films? Is there a capstone or thesis project expected? Who pays for this? Who owns the final project?
Other considerations: does the school offer the type of film education that you are interested in—documentary focused, experimental, fiction-oriented? Does it train you in writing—television or film, studio or independent?
Have an awareness of the diversity of its faculty, of its curriculum, of its student body. Are the students primarily from one particular region? Are they from only the United States? Does it have a large international student population?
Who is teaching at a particular school? Does the faculty consist of adjuncts, visiting professors, full-time professors? Are the professors filmmakers or film theorists? Have you heard of the professors, admire their work, heard or read an interview? What is the student to faculty ratio? A smaller school affords more contact hours with your professors. A larger school offers a broader cohort of classmates.
Where do you want to live for two to four years? Think about what the city or town that the school is located in has to offer in terms of your interests, and expanding your interests. Your education is not only on campus.
Can you make professional contacts outside of school? Does the institution have a good track record for helping make contacts? "In the middle of nowhere" schools might surprise you because they are looking for students and they will offer a generous financial aid package.
Figuring out whether you want to go to film school, and then where to go to school is a path that must be taken by any aspiring filmmaker. Consider what I have shared as a guide; a road map of sorts. But, it is up to you to determine the destination and how you will navigate your journey.
I can say, from my own experience to the experience of colleagues, and former students: if you really want to become a filmmaker, attend film school.


The paper presents four innovative business models that are being developed in three countries to support the commercialisation of electric vehicles (EV). Using an original business model framework and interviews with EV company founders and directors, we analyse the coexistence of competing business models (China) and partnership strategies along the EV value chain (US and France). Findings emphasise the importance of designing flexible business models and leveraging resources and inter-industry partnerships in the emerging EV ecosystem. The results provide practical recommendations for industrial players and insights for policy-makers.

What Darwin Never Knew
"What Darwin Never Knew" — a NOVA documentary on the burgeoning science of evolutionary developmental biology — will air on December 29, 2009, on public broadcasting stations around the country. According to NOVA:
Earth teems with a staggering variety of animals, including 9,000 kinds of birds, 28,000 types of fish, and more than 350,000 species of beetles. What explains this explosion of living creatures — 1.4 million different species discovered so far, with perhaps another 50 million to go? The source of life's endless forms was a profound mystery until Charles Darwin brought forth his revolutionary idea of natural selection. But Darwin's radical insights raised as many questions as they answered. What actually drives evolution and turns one species into another? To what degree do different animals rely on the same genetic toolkit? And how did we evolve?
"What Darwin Never Knew" offers answers to riddles that Darwin couldn't explain. Breakthroughs in a brand-new science — nicknamed "evo devo" — are linking the enigmas of evolution to another of nature's great mysteries, the development of the embryo. NOVA takes viewers on a journey from the Galapagos Islands to the Arctic, and from the explosion of animal forms half a billion years ago to the research labs of today. Scientists are finally beginning to crack nature's biggest secrets at the genetic level. The results are confirming the brilliance of Darwin's insights while revealing clues to life's breathtaking diversity in ways the great naturalist could scarcely have imagined.
Further information about the documentary, including a preview, interviews, and interactive features, is available at NOVA's website. Information on finding local public broadcasting stations is available via PBS's website.

Central London prices set for growth of 18% over five years
June 9, 2015 in Property News from iMove Spain Mallorca Real Estate Website
House prices in central London set to rise 18% in next five years and rents by 19.5% as market moves forward after the UK's general election, it is claimed.
The latest analysis says that unprecedented uncertainty surrounding last month's election saw a stifling of house price growth across London, with the rate of house price growth at less than 4%, compared to the 9.6% increase seen in 2014.
The emergence of the capital as a political scapegoat, with potential rent caps and a mansion tax being discussed, contributed to the sense that London households would bear the brunt of any tax changes, it points out.
However both issues have now subsided, following the surprise majority win by the Conservatives, according to international real estate consultants Cluttons.
Despite this, the damage done to domestic and international buyers' confidence was reflected in a sharp tailing off in demand during the first quarter of 2015, with both vendors withdrawing listings and buyers adopting a wait and see approach.
'There is no doubt that the results of the general election have helped to re-inject confidence into the market that had receded early on this year,' said Cluttons' international research and business development manager, Faisal Durrani.
'The outlook for the London housing market has stabilised, while buyers and vendors have returned to the market following a conspicuous absence of activity. Our outlook for the rest of the year is for increased stability in the market and a return to a more normal state of activity,' he added.
The report also says that despite the Mortgage Market Review (MMR) contributing to a 16% year on year dip in home purchase loans in greater London to March 2015, affordability appears to be improving slightly, with the average loan size dipping to 3.86 times annual income in the first quarter of 2015.
Risks still remain on the international front however. 'International risks such as the threat of another Scottish referendum, a disorderly Greek exit from the European Union and a potential Brexit mean that the market has moved from a situation of having several unknown unknowns to being left with a handful of known unknowns. A Brexit remains the biggest threat as the impact on the economy is the biggest unknown at this stage,' Durrani explained.
Cluttons forecasts modest central London house price growth in 2015 of between 2% and 3%, before accelerating to nearly 5% in 2016 and stabilising at around 4% per annum between 2017 and 2019. Cluttons expect this level of growth to deliver cumulative capital value appreciation of almost 18% over the next five years.
The prospects for the prime central London rental market are stable, with average growth of 4% per annum forecast for the next five years. Cluttons explains that affordability and the desire to purchase remain key challenges for the capital's rental market and while supply levels are rising, the strong rate of job creation in London will help in absorption rates.
'The more subdued growth forecast by a number of factors, but the propensity of tenants to show less geographic loyalty now means that households are not put off by the idea of moving out of the prime core in search of lower rents,' said Durrani.
'The key driver of course for this behaviour is the desire to purchase. The breach of affordability thresholds now means that the rippling out of buyer activity from the prime core markets has meant that Greater London boroughs such as Newham, Lewisham and Enfield have all emerged as the capital's three best performing markets over the last 12 months according to data from the Land Registry,' he concluded.

plaster of Paris: translation
calcined gypsum in white, powdery form, used as a base for gypsum plasters, as an additive of lime plasters, and as a material for making fine and ornamental casts: characterized by its ability to set rapidly when mixed with water.
Also, plaster of paris.
[1375-1425; late ME; so called because prepared from the gypsum of Paris, France]
Quick-setting gypsum plaster consisting of a fine white powder, calcium sulfate hemihydrate, which hardens when moistened and allowed to dry.
It is made by heating gypsum to 250–360°F (120–180°C). Used since ancient times, plaster of paris is so called because of its preparation from the abundant gypsum found in Paris. It is used to make molds and casts for ceramics and sculptures, to precast and hold ornamental plasterwork on ceilings and cornices, and for orthopedic bandages (casts). In medieval and Renaissance times, gesso (plaster of paris mixed with glue) was applied to wood panels, plaster, stone, or canvas to provide the ground for tempera and oil painting.
▪ building material
quick-setting gypsum plaster consisting of a fine, white powder, calcium sulfate hemihydrate (see calcium), which hardens when moistened and allowed to dry. Plaster of paris is prepared by heating calcium sulfate dihydrate, or gypsum, to 120°–180° C (248°–356° F). With an additive to retard the set, it is called wall, or hard-wall, plaster.
Used since ancient times, plaster of paris is so called because gypsum was early used near Paris to make plaster and cement. Plaster of paris is also used to precast and hold parts of ornamental plasterwork placed on ceilings and cornices and is used in medicine to make plaster casts to immobilize broken bones while they heal. Some modern sculptors work directly in plaster of paris. The speed at which the plaster sets gives the work a sense of immediacy and enables the sculptor to achieve the original idea quickly.
