First Post-KickStarter Episode of

After an extremely successful KickStarter campaign ( we raised enough money to meet our goal. It's too bad we didn't meet our stretch goal because I would've loved to have seen our President, Jean-Francois be taught how to dance dubstep. I am truly excited for our first episode (which you can find here: and hope this great concept for a show will last for many seasons to come.

For our first episode our special guest is Katherine Bryant (Twitter: @EvoNeuro). Katherine is neuroscience PhD student at Emory University studying primate cortical evolution, the main topic of conversation during our episode. Specifically we talk about the visual system across different primate species and how this system may have evolved. We also have a short chat about freedom of speech and activism within academia. I hope everyone enjoys this first episode and I am very excited for the rest of the season 1. I won't give away all of the guests but one of the our other guests is the famous neuroscientist, Dale Purves who is not only an expert in vision but has written one of the canonical introductory neuroscience textbooks used by many undergraduate and graduate neuroscience programs.

Baldwyn's last Theater

The famous old Ritz theater where we spent a lot of our time as youngsters. All day westerns on Saturday were great! More practical movies were shown during the weekdays and always a cartoon. One fellow, Darrell Mathis, loved the "roadrunner" cartoons - you could hear him laughing loudly outside the theater sometimes as he thought the bird was about to be captured by Wiley Coyote.

This particular time "Carrie" is being shown. Sorta dates the photo.

Summer Eats

This summer we had such a successful garden, minus our squash. I am not sure what really happened with those. They just seemed to always start in the middle of so much rain we were having. Now peppers we did really well with.
We had so many pounds we were giving them away, then we got smart and found time to can some of it. We made jalapeno peppers that were candied, pickled and even dehydrated some too.
We made a version of our own with some banana and jalapenos because it will be great with meat and beans. The jalapenos were very hot this year, while the banana peppers were mild. It will be a perfect combination.
This is my favorite recipe  for candied jalapenos. We pour it over cream cheese and eat with fritos or wheat thins. I love to add it to my cornbread too.

Strengthen Your Pelvic Floor

pelvic floorBy Nicole Pelletiere

Roughly a quarter of all women have pelvic floor disorder, and your risk for developing one only increases after giving birth. Here’s what you need to know about your pelvic floor, plus how to keep it strong during pregnancy and beyond.

What is your pelvic floor?

Your pelvic floor consists of muscles, ligaments, and connective tissue in the lowest part of your pelvis. A strong pelvic floor provides support for your bladder, uterus, vagina and rectum. But as your baby grows during pregnancy, his increasing weight can weaken your pelvic floor.

That can result in embarrassing leaking, or pain during activities like sex or running, says Karen Noblett, MD, Director of the Division of Urogynecology and Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of California, Irvine and a member of The American Urogynecologic Society. But having a strong pelvic floor can make childbirth easier, prevent leaking, and improve sex during pregnancy by making it easier to have an orgasm.

Strengthening your pelvic floor

Women who’ve given birth vaginally have a higher risk for developing pelvic floor disorder compared to women who’ve had C-sections or who haven’t given birth. But research shows that doing exercises to strengthen your pelvic floor during pregnancy and after childbirth could reduce your risk. Pelvic floor exercises to try:

Do your Kegels It might be the easiest workout you ever do: Several times a day, do 10-20 reps of contracting your pelvic floor muscles, holding for five seconds, and relaxing for five seconds, says Noblett. (They’re the same muscles you’d use to hold urine in while you’re peeing.)

Try Pilates Research shows that an hour of Pilates twice a week can strengthen your pelvic floor (along with other core muscles in your abs, hips, and back). The exercises will also encourage proper breathing techniques that can also help your pelvic floor get stronger.

Talk to your OB/GYN If strengthening exercises don’t work, talk to your OB/GYN. She can recommend pelvic floor physical therapy, plus other treatment options like electrical nerve stimulation or prescription medications.

Is Fully Defining a New Product at Odds with a “Minimum Viable Product”?

A recent article focused on the number one problem in new product development: too many projects for the available development resources (1). In that article, one of the prescriptions proposed was to resist the temptation for the scope of a project to expand. Scope creep not only impacts that specific project but the entire project portfolio because of resource dependencies. Continue reading

Moon's Silver Hints at Lunar Water Origins

It's not just poetic to call it a silvery moon: In addition to water, a NASA probe that crashed into a lunar crater last year churned up unexpected concentrations of silver and mercury, aka quicksilver, a new study says.

The metals had been found before in moon rocks brought back by Apollo astronauts, but the elements had appeared in only trace amounts. (Also see "Water Found in Apollo Moon Rocks.")

The new data, derived from the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) mission, show much higher amounts of silver and mercury in debris from the crash, which happened inside the south-pole crater known as Cabeus.

The surprising find hints at out how water may have arrived on the moon and why it become concentrated at the poles, astronomers say.

When impactors strike the lunar surface, the moon's easily vaporized metals, such as mercury and silver, tend to migrate—atom by atom—toward the cooler poles, much as water vapor in Earth's atmosphere condenses on cold surfaces.

Water and other volatile compounds brought in by asteroids and comets would similarly experience this "cold sink" effect. (See "Water Discovered on an Asteroid—A First.")

"The silver is like a tracer," said study leader Peter Schultz of Brown University in Rhode Island. "It tells us where [moon water] probably came from, and I think it's telling us that it came from comets and asteroids colliding with the moon."

Mobile phone cancer link unclear, study

The largest study to date on the safety of mobile phones has found no clear link to brain cancer, but researchers say further research is needed given the increasingly intensive use of the technology.

The study, by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), appears this week in International Journal of Epidemiology.

"The results really don't allow us to conclude that there is any risk associated with mobile phone use, but... it is also premature to say that there is no risk associated with it," says IARC's director Dr Christopher Wild.

The study looked at almost 13,000 mobile phone users, including 2,708 people with glioma tumours and 2,409 people with meningioma tumours in 13 countries.

It found no increased risk of glioma or meningioma tumours after 10 years of using a mobile phone, although it found "suggestions of higher risk" for the heaviest users.

The heaviest users who reported using their phones on the same side of their heads had a 40% higher risk for gliomas and 15% for meningiomas, but the researchers said "biases and errors" prevent making a causal link.

Given that the heaviest users in the study talked an average of half an hour per day on their mobile phones, a figure which is not heavy by today's standards, the researchers recommend further research.

The research, involved 21 scientists from the Interphone International Study Group, which received 19.2 million euros (A$27 million) in funding, around 5.5 million euros (A$7.7) of which came from industry sources.

Water Discovered on an Asteroid—A First

Water has been spotted on an orbiting asteroid for the first time, according to a new study of a space rock that appears to be coated with frost.

What's more, the frost seems to be mixed with carbon-bearing material, according to results from two independent teams studying the asteroid, which is known as 24 Themis.

"We report the first detection of water ice and of organic molecules on an asteroid, and they are both on the same asteroid," said Humberto Campins of the University of Central Florida, leader of one of the teams.

Both teams used NASA's Infrared Telescope Facility in Hawaii to watch how sunlight reflected off the asteroid at different wavelengths, revealing the watery signature.

A closer look at similar asteroids, perhaps during a proposed NASA mission, could help reveal whether the water we drink—and maybe even the building blocks of life—were delivered to Earth by impacting space rocks. (See "Comet Swarm Delivered Earth's Oceans?")

Asteroid Water Ice Exposed by "Impact Gardening"?

Asteroids are believed to be the leftovers of planet formation, with compositions that have remained almost pristine for 4.6 billion years.

The asteroid 24 Themis orbits about x million miles (480 million kilometers) from the sun. It's one of the largest asteroids in the main asteroid belt, which lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. (Explore an interactive solar system).

Unlike comets, which originate from beyond the orbit of Neptune, asteroids are thought to be relatively dry, since they orbit much closer to the sun.

But previous theories have suggested that ice could still exist in the main asteroid belt if it's buried below the surfaces of the space rocks. (See asteroid and comet pictures.)

In fact, two nearby "relatives" of 24 Themis are members of a strange group called main-belt comets, which are known to leave dust tails that may be fueled by water ice sublimating, or turning directly from a solid into a gas. (Related: "Strange 'Comet' May Be Asteroid Collision Debris.")

The discovery of frost on 24 Themis means that the asteroid "represents a 'living' window into the early solar system in the form of ice that, according to conventional wisdom, should have been long gone," astrophysicist Henry Hsieh, of Queen's University Belfast, wrote in a commentary on the new study.

On 24 Themis, the frost might be coming from subsurface ice that sublimates when sunlight warms up the asteroid, sending vapor to the surface. The gas then recondenses on the surface when darkness falls and temperatures dip, study author Campins said.

Or micrometeorites may practice "impact gardening," churning the surface enough to gradually uncover a layer of preserved subsurface ice.

Or the answer may be something else entirely, Campins admits: "One of the fun things about having so little information is how much one can speculate," he said.

Hubble Telescope Catches Superfast Runaway Star

A stellar speed demon racing away from its home may be a never before seen type of runaway star, astronomers have announced.

Dubbed 30 Dor 016, the massive star is whipping through space at a record-breaking 250,000 miles (400,000 kilometers) an hour. The fugitive already appears to have traveled 375 light-years from its birthplace: a star cluster called R136 deep in the Tarantula Nebula.

(Related: "Mystery Space Object May Be Ejected Black Hole.")

Astronomers caught the stellar runaway in Hubble Space Telescope data taken shortly after the last space shuttle servicing mission in May 2009. (See pictures taken by the upgraded Hubble.)

The team chose the star as a target to help calibrate the newly installed Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS), an instrument designed to look at the light signatures—or spectra—of very distant, faint objects.

After looking at the light coming from 30 Dor 016, the scientists "knew immediately that it was a massive star that had stellar winds blowing at breakneck speeds," said study co-author Danny Lennon, an astronomer at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Maryland.

"Given that the mass of the star is proportional to the velocity of the material being expelled, we knew right away that its wind was the fastest ever seen."

Such powerful wind means that the star is incredibly massive: Lennon and colleagues calculate that the runaway is roughly 90 times the mass of our sun.

Mystery Space Object May Be Ejected Black Hole

Then again, the strange body could be a rare type of supernova or an oddball "midsize" black hole—more massive than black holes born when single stars explode but "lighter" than the supermassive ones at the centers of galaxies.

"All three of those [options] are exotic and have something peculiar to them," said study co-author Peter Jonker, an astronomer with the Netherlands Institute for Space Research in Utrecht.

Off-center Black Holes Wanted

Jonker and his colleagues found the mystery object while on the hunt for off-center supermassive black holes that are thought to form when two galaxies merge. (Related: "Colossal Four-Galaxy Collision Discovered.")

Most, if not all, galaxies are thought to have supermassive black holes at their cores. Recent computer simulations suggest that when two galaxies merge, so do their central black holes.

But the newly formed black hole combo "actually receives a kick" from gravitational forces generated by the galactic merger, Jonker said. The kick, according to the models, "launches this newly formed black hole out of the center of the galaxy." (See "Hundreds of 'Rogue' Black Holes May Roam Milky Way.")

Sorting through archived data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory, the team found an interesting candidate in a galaxy half a billion light years away from Earth. The extremely bright x-ray object is about ten thousand light-years from its galactic center.

Based on the Chandra data, however, the astronomers couldn't rule out the possibility that the newfound object actually lies behind the galaxy in question.

So the team compared their x-ray information with archived optical data from the Hubble Space Telescope. They found that the mystery object emits a bright blue light in visible wavelengths. (See NASA astronomer's picks for the top Hubble pictures of the past 20 years.)

Hole in Space Found by Orbiting Telescope

The hole lies in a nebula called NGC 1999, a bright cloud of dust and gas in the constellation Orion. The nebula glows with light from a nearby star.

The Hubble Space Telescope first snapped a picture of the nebula in December 1999. Astronomers assumed that an inky spot in the cloud was a blob of cooler gas and dust that's so dense it blocks visible light from passing through. (See a Hubble picture that shows dark globs in another nebula.)

But new pictures from the European Space Agency's Herschel Space Observatory show that the blob really is an empty void. That's because Herschel sees in infrared, which should allow the telescope to peer through dense dust and see any objects inside.

Even to Herschel, however, the blob looked black.

Astronomers think that the 0.2-light-year-wide hole was made by the fitful birthing process of a nearby stellar embryo called V380 Ori. (Related: "Big Bang Ripples Formed Universe's First Stars.")

The protostar is already 3.5 times the mass of our sun. The team thinks the newborn is signaling its near maturity by shooting out superfast columns of gas from its poles that are blasting away any leftover material from the star's formation.

"We think the star is launching a bipolar jet at hundreds of kilometers per second that is punching a gigantic hole in the surrounding cloud," said team leader Tom Megeath of the University of Toledo in Ohio. "Essentially these bolts of gas are being shot forward and are sweeping away all the gas and dust."

Herschel, the Astronomer, Also Saw Space Holes

Megeath added that the telescope that found the hole is named after 19th-century astronomer William Herschel. In his calalogs of the night sky, Herschel recorded several black patches that he thought were holes but which turned out to be dark clouds.

Ball Lightning May Be All in Your Head

For hundreds of years eyewitnesses have reported brief encounters with the golf ball- to tennis ball-size orbs of electricity. But scientists have been unable to agree on how and why ball lightning forms, since the phenomenon is rare and very short-lived. (See "Ball Lightning: A Shocking Scientific Mystery.")

Ball lightning is often reported during thunderstorms, and it's known that multiple consecutive lightning strikes can create strong magnetic fields. So Joseph Peer and Alexander Kendl at the University of Innsbruck in Austria wondered whether ball lightning is really a hallucination induced by magnetic stimulation of the brain's visual cortex or the eye's retina.

In previous experiments, other scientists had exposed humans to strong, rapidly changing magnetic fields using a medical machine called a transcranial magnetic stimulator, or TMS. The machine's magnetic fields are powerful enough to induce electric currents in human brain cells without being harmful.

Focusing magnetic fields on the visual cortex of the brain caused the subjects to see luminous discs and lines. When the focus was moved around within the visual cortex, the subjects reported seeing the lights move.

In their paper, which appeared online May 7 on the physics research website, Peer and Kendl argue that magnetic fields made by lightning could have the same effect as TMS machines on nearby humans.

In fact, the pair thinks about half of all ball lightning reports are actually tricks of the mind induced by magnetism.

Jupiter Loses Big Belt

Two wide stripes—known as the equatorial belts—normally circle the huge planet, products of the fast-moving jet streams that roar through Jupiter's atmosphere.

But pictures of Jupiter taken by an amateur astronomer show that sometime during the past couple weeks, the south equatorial belt completely faded from view.

"The basic view of Jupiter is of two dark belts. Now there is only one," said Alan MacRobert, senior editor of Sky & Telescope magazine.

"This is the most obvious change on Jupiter that I can recall," he said, adding that anyone with a backyard telescope should be able to see the difference. "Any instrument powerful enough to show any of Jupiter's surface features will easily reveal the change."

However, the planet's "belt buckle" remains: The lost stripe "means that Jupiter's Great Red Spot is now floating all alone in whiteness, whereas usually it is in an indentation in the south equatorial belt," MacRobert said.

The spot—actually a raging storm three times bigger than Earth—is rarely brick red, he added, and often becomes quite pale. MacRobert characterizes its current color as "somewhat orangy." (Find out why the Great Red Spot has been shrinking.)

Jupiter's Dark Belt Lost to Light Cloud Cover?

Despite the dramatic change on Jupiter, the lost belt doesn't concern experts. The planet has lost this stripe before, most recently in the 1970s and the early '90s. So far, the stripe has always reappeared.

Astronomers are, however, somewhat stumped for a complete explanation.

A dozen or so jet streams move alternately east-west and west-east on Jupiter, said planetary scientist Andrew Ingersoll of the California Institute of Technology. The clouds in between these jet streams create the planet's multicolored stripes and swirls.

Bradley Cooper recently told BBC that he would “love” to play Lance Armstrong in a movie about the cycling champion’s life. Cooper told BBC, “I think he’s fascinating. What a fascinating character.”

Paramount Pictures is already in the works of planning a movie with JJ Abrams’ production company Bad Robot about Armstrong, who has been under much scrutiny as of late due to his recent admission to doping during his seven Tour de France title victories.

Other big names have been thrown around for the role including, Matt Damon, Jake Gyllenhaal and Christian Bale.

“I remember Matt Damon was going to do his autobiography at one point years ago,” Cooper told BBC. “I remember thinking, that would be a great character, I’d love to play that character. I would love to do something, I think he’s pretty fascinating.”

The film will be based on New York Times reporter Juliet Macur’s forthcoming book ‘Cycle of Lies: The Fall of Lance Armstrong.’

No word yet on when the picture will be released.

Is Jonathan Quick now the best goalie in the NHL?

Some of you might not know who Jonathan Quick is just yet. We know how it goes with East Coast bias and how the Los Angeles Kings don’t usually get prime time action on TV, but if you’ve been keeping up, you know for sure who Jonathan Quick is and right now he’s the best goalie in the league.

It might sound like a wild claim to make with guys like Roberto Luongo, Carey Price, Henrik Lundqvist, Pekka Rinne, and Tim Thomas out there but what Quick is doing this so far this season shows that he’s forced his way into the conversation as one of the game’s elite goalies.

Tonight, Quick shutout the Dallas Stars 1-0, his third shutout in a row. He’s the first goalie since Columbus’ Steve Mason did that back in 2008. Quick also set a Kings shutout streak record as he’s kept opponents off the board for the last 188:10 breaking Rogie Vachon’s old team record of 185:55. Quick has played in six games this year and allowed five goals. He won his 100th career game on Thursday night.

Impressive. Most impressive.

Those kinds of skills and those kinds of numbers are stellar and rare and right now, there’s not another goalie playing on his level and he’s doing it seeing plenty of rubber as well. It’s too early to start handing out awards, but should Quick keep this kind of dominating play up, the Kings are going to go very far this season.

If you’re not watching the Kings yet, you might want to start because you could see a lot of them in the postseason.

The Buzzer: Pacioretty continues hot streak

Players of the Night:

Max Pacioretty, Montreal Canadiens: Here’s a name you haven’t seen often in these parts this season. But Pacioretty had two goals tonight, the opener for the Canadiens and the game-winner with 1:18 left in the third period to give the Canadiens a 3-2 win over the Washington Capitals. He also added an assist on Montreal’s other goal. Truth be told, Pacioretty has been sizzling lately with six goals and an assist in his past six games.

John Gibson, Anaheim Ducks: Gibson had a quiet night for the most part until the third period, but he was stellar when called upon and made 23 saves, including a second-period beauty (which you will see below) to help his team to a 2-1 win against the Los Angeles Kings.

Highlights of the Night:

James Neal had all the moves to help the Vegas Golden Knights secure a point on the road in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Florida Panthers.

John Gibson got just enough on this puck to redirect it off the post and out for quite the save:

Factoid of the Night:

Panthers 4, Golden Knights 3 (OT)

Canadiens 3, Capitals 2

Ducks 2, Kings 1

Henrique, Kesler too much for Quick, Kings in 2-1 Ducks win

1 Comment

Jonathan Quick did all he could.

The posts behind him helped on a couple occasions, but Quick was everything the Los Angeles Kings needed to break out of their five-game losing streak, which they entered Friday wearing like a ball and chain.

But while Quick was solid in the crease, making 29 saves, the men in front of him couldn’t replicate their goalie’s performance in a 2-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks.

The Kings have now lost six straight and just two of their past 10 and are tied with four teams, including the Ducks, who sit on 53 points and just outside the final wildcard spot in the Western Conference.

The Ducks-Kings rivalry has become quite the grind ’em out slugfest over time, and despite their recent downward spiral, the Kings weren’t going to roll over and die when the puck dropped, even if they played 24 hours earlier.

This rivalry doesn’t allow for one team to not show up, despite whatever mitigating circumstances may be available.

And neither team was giving the other any allowances, evidenced by a 0-0 scoreline after 40 minutes.

The Ducks struck first in the third frame as Adam Henrique finally willed a puck behind Quick, who had puzzled Anaheim’s offense for 42 minutes and change.

Henrique’s individual effort on the goal began a few seconds earlier as he won a foot race to the puck to get it into the Ducks’ zone, dove to make sure it stayed there and they got up and went to the net, where he picked up a loose puck that and put it in the back of the net for a 1-0 lead at the 17:55 mark.

That lead was shortlived, however.

The Kings struck back two-and-a-half minutes later as some extended offensive zone time by the Kings resulted in Alex Iafallo flicking a puck up and over John Gibson off a rebound to ruin his shutout bid at 4:48.

The Ducks would get the final say.

Jakob Silfverberg‘s excellent forecheck kept the Kings from clearing the puck out of their zone.

The puck found its way to the point, where Francois Beauchemin unleashed a high point shot that was redirected down and under Quick by Ryan Kesler for the eventual game-winner.

Gibson’s night may have been a little quieter than his counterpart 200-feet away, but he was on point when he needed to be, making 23 of 24 saves, including getting just enough on Iafallo’s second-period shot to steer it off the post and out to keep the game 0-0 at that point.

Red Fisher is a mythical name in sports journalism.

Fisher’s death on Friday at 91 sent shockwaves through the National Hockey League community, and stories upon stories — snippets of Fisher and his life — began circulation around the Internet, many on Twitter by those who worked alongside him and those who had the pleasure to speak with the man.

Fisher’s life will be immortalized in print in the coming days. Michael Farber wrote this beautifully done piece for the Montreal Gazette already today. A must-read.

Here’s what his contemporary’s are saying, those that revere him and the people who Fisher made an impact on in so many ways:

Made to Love Magic

Though a few tracks may be known from other recordings this album (published in 2004) is a very collectible compilation. 'Magic (I Was Made To Love Magic)' is one of Nick's first songs written around 1968. It didn't make it onto his first album 'Five Leaves Left' as that was already "too full" but was later included on the album 'Time Of No Reply' with an orchestral arrangement by Richard Hewson.

Two songs included here were updated for the album. Both were newly recorded in 2003 using the original orchestrations by Robert Kirby. On 'Magic' Nick's vocals were isolated from the original 1968/69 recording whilst the track 'Time Of No Reply' only existed before as a version with Nick on vocal and guitar. In 2003 the previously unheard song 'Tow The Line' was accidentally discovered at the end of a tape during the research for this album and features as the last track.
'Hanging On A Star' has always been a very moving song, here it can be heard in an alternate, stunning version. The guitar sounds more intricate and the vocal, whilst faltering and strained, is beautiful in its own way.

All tracks have been digitally re-mastered and re-mixed in 2003 for this CD. The audio quality is excellent and sound engineer John Wood did a great job, as usual.

The booklet provided contains beautiful artwork, three nice photos of Nick plus interesting liner notes by Cally, Robert Kirby and John Wood. In my opinion this album is a must-have for a true fan of Nick's music.

1. Rider On The Wheel
2. Magic
3. River Man
4. Joey
5. Thoughts Of Mary Jane
6. Mayfair
7. Hanging On A Star
8. Three Hours
9. Clothes Of Sand
10. Voices
11. Time Of No Reply
12. Black Eyed Dog
13. Tow The Line

Nick - Vocal and acoustic guitar on all tracks except Magic

Rider On The Wheel stereo re-mixed version
Magic (I Was Made To Love Magic) Nick - Vocal new version orchestrated by Robert Kirby *
River Man early version recorded as a demo in 1968 by Robert Kirby

Day 4

Day 04 - A picture of your day.

So, I really couldn't think of a picture that I could post to show my day yesterday (because I forgot to post.) But let me just describe it for you.

I woke up, went to class. Came home, got online to do some of my online class homework, only to find out that I had missed not only 1, but 2 essays. :( I get so caught up in my other classes, that completely forget about my other classes. So, without the time to do the essays, I decided that I would put them off until today. I then went to work. I spent time with four babies, for 6 hours. When I got home from work, Jerry and I went to the movies. We saw, "Just go with it," it was a very funny movie and I loved it. Then, we went to go see Ice Cube, because he was in Ogden, but apparently everyone...EVERYONE wanted to see Ice Cube. So we went to dinner instead, at Texas Roadhouse. After dinner we decided to go to the Outlaw for a margarita. We had one drink and left, came home and went to bed.

If you could put that into a picture, what would the picture be of? Because I tried taking a picture, but how do you take a picture of one aspect, and expect it to show the whole day?

Get to Know a Character – Mace

All right, let’s just be honest, people.  If you live in Dallas, you’ve seen them.  The $30,000 Millionaires.  The Dallas Douchebags.  Slightly akin to the LA Douchebags or the Jersey Guidos, it’s the fake-tan, muscled, over-primped, Ed Hardy-wearing, mouth-breathing segment of the population that you either love, hate, or secretly envy.

Mace is a Dallas Douchebag.  He’s bona-fide.  He was even on

Just before Charlie and Heather reconnected and began their whirlwind romance (way too many years in the making), Mace was Heather’s diversion.  They had a casual fling, just a fun thing, neither of them wanting anything serious, and when Charlie showed up, Heather broke it off immediately.  No hard feelings, no ill will, just friends.

At least, that’s what Heather thought.

Turns out, Mace really did have a thing for her, but knowing she didn’t want to get serious, he didn’t pursue things further when she broke it off.  But he did keep hanging around, partly because he just liked being around her, and partly because, hey, you never know.

See, Mace wasn’t always a douchebag.  He used to be a regular guy with all the regular guy relationship troubles, until one day he realized that if he put on this character of a douchebag, the women just seemed to respond to him.  So he kept doing it.  He did it so long that he eventually didn’t know when he was in character and when he wasn’t.  And nobody ever saw through it.  Until Heather.  She was the only girl he felt comfortable being himself around.  And now he’s lost her.

So when the evening starts off with Charlie and Heather having a huge fight – over him – he has a choice to make.  Take advantage of the situation to try to wedge them further apart, or step aside, accepting that all he ever was to Heather was a fling, and that she loves Charlie and would be happy with him.

What he decides will make him realize exactly what kind of guy he really is.

Online Opportunities

I read an article recently in The Hollywood Reporter about the rise of online streaming competitors to Netflix, and it sparked several thoughts.

First, just how much the “video rental” business has changed in the last 5 years. Think about it, 5 years ago, the standard way of renting a movie was to get in your car and drive to the video store and wander around until you found what you wanted. Then Netflix came along and started delivering right to your door – in the unbelievably fast time frame of a few days. Then they started streaming, and I don’t know about you, but I’ve got a Netflix account and have almost gotten to where I’m not even interested in seeing a movie unless I can stream it, right then, in a matter of seconds.

It’s really kind-of amazing.

The second thought I had was how because of this technological shift, it’s opened up so many more opportunities to get your film seen. The number of online streaming options has exploded, from Hulu‘s Plus platform to to CinemaNow – run by Best Buy. Fandor is a great resource for indie and hard-to-find films, Zune is Microsoft’s platform, Vudu, Mubi, and of course, iTunes. Even Facebook has started getting into the action.

Now there are even filmmakers releasing their films as an app for the iPhone, iPad, and other mobile devices. Download the app for $5 or $7, and stream the movie anytime you want, with access to special features, as well.

The downside from a filmmaking perspective at this point is it’s all brand new – there’s no track record to speak of to show investors, which means there’s absolutely no way to project what a film could make on these new platforms. But there’s a gigantic upside – dozens of new ways of reaching an audience in the simplest, cheapest, and most popular format we’ve seen in decades. Also, while we can’t predict how successful the new venues will be, we can point to some major businesses who are betting millions of dollars on its success. Microsoft, Amazon, Best Buy, and Apple don’t go into things like this on a whim. They smell something in the air and are banking on it.

And we will, too.

No news is good news

Been quiet around here, I know, but that’s only because things have been busy. Which is good!

A lot of work is being done behind the scenes, as always laying the groundwork for the next step in the process. I was telling someone the other day, films take a long time to happen even if you have a team of people working full time on it – and right now there’s only one person doing it in his spare time.

This will eventually change.

The biggest news right now is we’re hard at work on a teaser trailer for the movie, one that will introduce the characters, tell you a little about the story, and give a feel for what to expect. And to maybe give a little sizzle to this steak.

A little more updating on the business plan and then we’re ready to take in some investors. That’s when the real work begins (which is followed by when the really real work begins, and then by when the hard work begins, which precedes the really hard work).

So sorry it’s so quiet around here, we haven’t gone anywhere, just moving things forward off in the background somewhere.

Just hang tight, all. Minds will be blown in good time.

Best Birthday Ever

So, one of the things I wanted to do on this blog from time to time was tell stories from my past filmmaking adventures, and this is one of my favorites.

It was on my 30th birthday, and I was doing the festival run with my feature film, Ocean Front Property.  We were playing in the Tiburon FIlm Festival across the Bay from San Francisco and…

Ah, hell, I told this story a long time ago.  I’ll just point you to the video:

Deep Ellum Radio

“There aren’t any radio stations that play local music!”

It’s a familiar cry, though not 100% true.  We have to give credit where it’s due for The Local Edge with Mark and the great coverage and exposure for local music that he provides.  Sure, it’s only one hour a week and sure, it’s at 11:00 on Sunday, but the show itself is spectacular and worth finding.

We should also be fair to KXT and the local muic they play.  The response to their coverage has been, to put it charitably, mixed.  But I think still everybody appreciates what they do.

But still, local music isn’t their only gig.  Wouldn’t it be great to have a local radio station that played only local music, featuring shows by noted people in the local music scene?

Those dreams may be coming true – in a sense.  Enter Deep Ellum Radio.  it’s not actually on the radio, it’s on the internet, but let’s face it, how much time do you spend on the internet compared to the time you’re on the radio?  It’s pretty awesome.

I was doubly happy to hear that a couple friends of The Debut and HUGE local music supporters Chelsea Callahan and Chris from the Ghost of Blind Lemon have been given their own weekly shows.  This is extraordinarily cool.  If there were two people in this town that I would want most to have a local radio show, it would be these two.

So check ‘em out!  the Ghost of Blind Lemon show airs Wednesday at 6:00 for two hours followed by Chelsea Callahan (who  may be going by DJ Dirty Cha Cha?) at 8:00.  And spread the word.  Supporting these kinds of programs is what’s going to make the difference.

Complaining is easy.  Supporting is just as easy – but more effective.

Get to Know a Character – Charlie

In my ongoing quest to fill this site with more information about the actual movie, I introduce you to the main character, Charlie.

Charlie is a clean-cut, semi-corporate guy who once upon a time was very into music and even played in a band or two in college.  But ultimately, music wasn’t his passion and he grew out of it – a little earlier than the rest of his friends.

Charlie’s real passion is his girlfriend, Heather.  He met Heather back in college, but for one reason after another, they never managed to be together.  If she was single, he was dating someone.  If he was single, she was dating someone.   And she tended to date guys that were nothing at all like him.

Finally, he gave up on her, and took a job out of state.   A huge promotion.  But once away, all he could think of was her.  Until, after a chance encounter, he throws all caution to the wind and quit his job, gave up everything to move back to Dallas and be with her.  And it worked.  They’ve been together ever since.

The night of our movie, he plans to seal the deal, in a dramatic proposal on stage at his best friend Tom’s debut show.  He works it out with him and has Tom hold on to the ring as part of the plot.  That’s when things begin to go inexorably wrong.

That’s when the Ex shows up.  Mace.  Mace is Heather’s ex who she was dating just before Charlie.  He’s smug, douchy, and just like all the other men Heather had picked over him in the past, is nothing at all like Charlie.  He’s an ever-present reminder of the years he spent pining for Heather, and it just feeds his fear that maybe she’s still looking for something else in a man.  Even worse, she has insisted on staying friends with him.

Then Tom goes missing, and he’s still got the engagement ring.  So Charlie sets off to find Tom with his manager, Jackie, but before he does, he sees Mace talking to Heather a little too closely.

She’s laughing just a little too loudly.

So he asks Mace to join him, separating him from Heather, and sets off on a night of hunting through the bars and clubs to find his best friend, save his long-planned proposal, all the while with his greatest nemesis right by his side.

It’s going to be quite a night.

For a look at some of the actors we have in mind to play Charlie, check out the Characters page.

Post-Oscars wrap-up

I’d love to say that I don’t care about awards shows and that I’m above watching the Oscars – but truth be told, I’m not.  I watch them semi-religiously.  Sometimes in a big group, sometimes by myself.

My first thought: James Franco was half asleep through the whole thing.  Anne Hathaway (and her 7 costume changes) did the best she could.  Of course, it wouldn’t be the Oscars without everybody the next day railing on how bad the hosts were – even Billy Crystal was tarred and feathered every year and now people are begging for him to come back – and maybe this year they deserved a little of it, but whatever.

I, for one, was glad to see The King’s Speech win.  It was pretty expected, though.  The film was Oscar bait.  Period piece, World War II, a famous main character, one with a handicap no less… Combine it with remarkable performances from the two leading men, and it was made to win Oscars.

I was also glad to see the screenwriter accept his award, his first one, at such an advanced age.  He joked that he was always a “late bloomer”.  The message:  Don’t anybody dare give up.  Ever.

On the flipside, you have Aaron Sorkin, a veteran TV writer/producer on the edge of legendary status, winning his first Oscar, which is also pretty cool.

Would like to have seen Christopher Nolan win for Inception – truly one of the most original and brilliantly structured plots I’ve ever seen.  But clearly the guy has plenty of Oscar-worthy work ahead of him.

My favorite Oscar moments ever?  When Once won for Best Original Song.  it’s the only award that’s ever brought a tear to my eye – I’ve never wanted to see anybody win so bad.  And the year that a sound designer won that had seen my first film and offered to rework the soundtrack for me.  I watched someone make an Oscar speech that had seen – and was impressed by – my movie.

That was really cool.

DPP: Day 1

A friend of mine participates in the December Photo Project. Basically, you post an interesting photo to your blog every day for the first 25 days of December. We'll see if I actually keep up with it.

Here's today's picture.

I'm slightly cheating since this is from our drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway a few weeks ago.

Hospitals Project hosts carpentry students

The new Comox Valley Hospital construction site is providing “priceless” outside-the-classroom educational opportunities to North Island College Carpentry students, says NIC Carpentry Instructor Tom Klatt following a recent tour of the site.

“It’s a unique opportunity to have this right in our backyard, where you just walk out the door and 100 yards away are guys building a huge job. It couldn’t be better, really. It’s priceless in a lot of ways.”

Group 1

Students from the North Island College’s Foundation Carpentry Program toured the Comox Valley Hospital construction site recently with Graham Construction representatives.

Klatt teaches the college’s Foundation Carpentry Program, which offers first-year students technical training in what the trade is all about. He couldn’t have been happier to see the 153-bed Comox Valley Hospital construction project growing out of the ground right next door to the college.

“Because they’re right beside where we do our schooling, it was a good opportunity for us to once in a while take a walk around the fence line just to see what was going on at any particular time,” Klatt says. “There was tons of stuff about concrete work. In this area, we don’t see a lot of that kind of work, the heavy industrial type of construction, so it was nice to see that going up.”

Walking the fence line was very informative for the students, but that couldn’t compare to actually touring the site inside the fence. Klatt jumped at the offer when it came from Graham Design Builders.

“I was told by one of the workers there that if I was interested in taking a tour, to get ahold of (Graham’s Health, Safety & Environment Supervisor) Mike Brown and he would try and set something up. As it turns out, one of my students in the class is a volunteer firefighter with Mike in Port Alberni. He got ahold of me and said ‘we’d love to have you on site. We’ll just work out a date and a time that’s good for everybody. It turned out that we got to take the tour about two weeks before the end of the course. It was an excellent fit.”

Brown said the timing of the tour worked well, an opportunity to connect the classroom with the worksite.

“The tour timed out very well with the students learning about formwork at school, followed by a tour of our site as an opportunity to observe the tasks first hand and ask questions from those performing the work,” he said. “We were very excited to be able to provide added benefit and value to those in the program as they further their education and skills.”

Among the many educational opportunities the site tour offered, Klatt wanted the students to see aspects of how versatile the carpentry trade can be, from building houses to building hospitals. For example, the concrete forming work involved on the new hospitals is very different from the work done on the foundation for a single-family residence. Klatt described the tour as an eye-opening learning experience.

“The students loved it. They were okay with going around the outside of the fence but to get on site, they really liked it. They though it was well worth taking the time from the course and going out there. It was a very good tour. The people from Graham were very forthcoming and let us walk around and ask questions of some of the workers. It was excellent.”

Construction-based training is a two-way street. There have been advantages for Graham to be working so closely with the college. Klatt says several students have made their way from the classroom to the North Island Hospitals Project.

“There’s all sorts of guys that have been coming to school here to continue with their apprenticeship training and then go back to work over there,” he says. “It’s been awesome.”

The most recent figures show a total of 487 workers were on the project in July. Ninety-three apprentices were working on the hospital construction sites in Campbell River and the Comox Valley in a variety of fields including carpentry, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, roofing and others. That number was up from 82 in June and 75 in May.

Velvet Manicure: Stylish Nail Design

Velvet Manicure: Stylish Nail Design

Manicure is a cosmetic procedure of hand and nail care and design of the nails. Every woman must do it. Nowadays there’re many techniques and ways of the nail design. Now one of the most popular and stylish designs is velvet manicure which is also called plush, velour, wool, suede and cashmere.

Velvet Manicure Stylish Nail Design

What is velvet manicure?

Velvet manicure is the coating of the nails with a plush 3D-effect on them. It’s created by laying a special decorative material, flock-powder.

What do you need for coating?

This type of nail design is laid with a special device, flockayder, but you can do this yourself at home too. For this you need buy flock-powder that is a material made of wool, acryl, cotton or viscous rayon which can be of different colours, length and width. You also need lacquer of the same colour as the flock and a nail-brush to remove extra powder.

How to do velvet manicure?

First degrease the nails by removing the old lacquer, then apply the first layer of chosen lacquer makeup and let it dry completely. Pour the certain amount of flock out of a jar to more convenient container with a wide mouth and brake the lumps slightly. It’s recommended to use a face mask because the grains of decorative mixture are too small and you should prevent them from getting inside your organism.

After applying one more layer of lacquer the nails must be flock-powdered evenly and quickly, then you should distribute the material on the nail plate by tamping slightly. Remove extra filaments with a nail-brush. Don’t cover the flock nails with special latter gel not to ruin the effect. It’s enough to wait for complete dryout and velvet manicure is ready.

Advantages and disadvantages of velvet manicure

The main advantage of velvet manicure is that it can be easily done on your own and you even don’t need any special knowledge and skills. Flock-powder is a cheap and available material that can be bought in any specialized store. The coating itself doesn’t require some special care and if you need you can easily remove it with varnish remover.

This type of manicure is modern, stylish and unordinary. It looks perfectly with dresses of the same colour of velvet, velour, cashmere and suede. For creating a more interesting effect you can cover only one nail or all the nails but partially with flock and use the different colours. If you are high-experienced and high-skilled, you can do velvet manicure with some patterns or in ombre style. It all depends on your taste and imagination.

The only one disadvantage is that this coating satisfies the eye just for several days or little longer if it’s done with a special device.

Velvet manicure suits modern stylish women who are not afraid of attention and love showing their style and personality.

Cynically fishing for pageviews

Behold the cover of this week's Young Champion! Yes, those are indeed aprons with a heart-shaped hole in the front, worn over a black dress with a heart-shaped hole in the front, severely undercutting the efficacy of both apron and dress in favor of heart-shaped decorative function.

I hereby declare maidophilia's Baroque period open!

Also, I snicker because I remember when NATSUKAWA Jun was trying to position herself as more of a "sexy" idol than a "cute" one.

Meanwhile, in the music industry, tomorrow will see the official release of OOTSUKA Ai's latest single フレンジャー, "Furenjaa". That title evoked mixed emotions in me when I first saw it, because I parsed it as "flenjer", which sounds like "flenser", and flensing is gruesome stuff. On the other hand, I learnt the word "flenser" from Judy Blume's Blubber, so it took me back a little.

Actually, though, the preferred English spelling is "Frienger". This makes the meaning much clearer: "friend" + "ranger". "Ranger" in Japanese kind of corresponds to "Super-" or "-Man/-Woman" in English: a morpheme that can be used to form superhero names and/or titles. (This is thanks to a series of old television shows which we in the western world were also exposed to, albeit through a glass darkly, in the form of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.)

So, to summarize, the song positions her as a superhero whose powers are eating, drinking, and being a good friend. I don't mean to be dramatic, but I think this is going to break J-pop in half.

Popularity factor: 3

A song that begins with ミルクパン must clearly be a winner.

My first thought was that she was combining "friend" and "stranger", for which there is in fact a precedent -- Mew, a Scandinavian band based in London, had an album out called "Frengers" a couple of years ago. The "ranger" aspect eluded me.

Now that you mention it, who was it who released "Frienemies"? Dilated Peoples?

While the overall growth was certainly interesting, perhaps the bigger news from thereport isthe shareofUS GDP derived from healthcare spending increased, a phenomenontypically not seen outside of a recession. Usually during expansions, GDP and healthcare spending growth tend to move more or less in line with each other, keeping the percentage roughly constant from year to year. According to the NHSR, nominal GDP growth over the past two yearswas 4.0% annually on average while healthcare spending grew 5.5% annually. Thus, healthcare spending as a percentage of GDP increased by 0.6 percentage points over those two years, with 0.4 percentage points of that coming in 2015 alone.

The NHRS noted, however, that the US is decidedly not in a recession.

Smaller organizations may find it difficult to survive in recession due to lack of financial funds or availability of loans. The food chain in nature includes both plants and animals who are a part of it and even the tiniest ecosystem has a food chain for itself. Like for any other thing, you could choose to voluntour on a small budget or be willing to spend huge bucks. This kind of organizational structure classifies people according to the function they perform in their professional life or according to the functions performed by them in the organization.

People who belong to cultures that promote individualism tend to look at only the main aspects of a situation, while those of a culture that promotes collectivism tend to consider even the minor details.

The interviewee should anticipate what questions will be asked of them, and answer them correctly when asked without trying to bluff their way through the interview. Applicants who are serious about getting the job should never go to an interview unprepared and arrogant, just assuming that they are going to get the job on their good looks and fabulous charm. Practice interview questions aid in preparation so that when the time comes there is no self doubt. The interview is preparation meeting opportunity, and it is usually the only chance that applicants have to demonstrate why they are the perfect one for the job. Professional interviewers can spot a bull****** a mile away! If the interview is not taken seriously, then it is assumed that the job won’t be either. This will not win points and could end the interview immediately. To answer job interview questions effectively, the interviewee must be confident and ask questions in return showing the interviewer genuine interest in the position. The best way to answer job interview questions is honestly and directly.

The result will be the ability to answer job interview questions with confidence and professionalism (and with no jitters!).
