Before Shop-Eat-Surf, there were two sites I paid for premium content on. One is Surfline, the other is the Wall Street Journal. One is about all things surf, the other, the best business content site in the world. Shop-eat-surf is the intersection of those two worlds. Shop-Eat-Surf provides everything from coverage of events, people, brands and trends. However, beyond the Executive Edition "wall" is more meaty analysis and interpretation of financial statements, business models and brand philosophies; why certain brands and companies are succeeding, where others aren't. The Executive Edition is a must have read if the business of surf and action sports are on your radar screen.- By Jeff Berg, Co-owner, Surfline
I find Shop-Eat-Surf to be a very useful and informative site that I enjoy browsing daily. Shop-Eat-Surf is the first thing I look at every morning to keep up-to-date on the latest talk, events, and happenings in the industry. I must say I am a fan of Shop-Eat-Surf.- By Bobby Abdel, Partner, Jack's Surfboards

Details on Industry Insight.
Tim Garrett, the president of Lost Clothing, has left the La Jolla Group and has formed a marketing agency, The Action Sports Collective.
Tim said with conservative financial plans for 2010 due to the economy, it became clear it would be in the best interest of the company to leave, especially since Lost Clothing has strong department heads in sales, merchandising and design and marketing, and an experienced group executive in Bill Bussiere, the CFO and president of the La Jolla Group.
Toby Bost, CEO of The La Jolla Group, said "The LJG model has evolved significantly over the last year, with a focus on leveraging executive management across the brands. This enables Lost Clothing to operate more efficiently moving forward.
"As President and CFO of LJG, Bill Bussiere will assume the executive duties of Lost Clothing. Ryan Divel has been promoted to VP of sales and marketing and Chad Crites has assumed the role of general manager. The changes are effective immediately."
Tim, who's previous work experiences includes as a partner of Thom McElroy in McElroy Communications, said this new type of marketing agency was something that he worked through with Toby and Bill and he will be working on some projects with La Jolla.
"It's critical that ...Lost Clothing stay lean-and-mean right now, which is the premise of the collective -- everyone has to keep their overhead low due to the economy, but today it's more important than ever to have A+ talent at the fingertips.
"Under The Action Sports Collective, I will partner with great talent to handle bigger initiatives to help strengthen brands, grow sales as well as promote the industry on the whole," he said.
"There is a lot of amazing talent out there in specific disciplines such as strategic planning, creative campaign development, media planning and buying, events, digital content development, production, research, athlete management, etc."

City Council reaffirms that vacation rentals are not allowed in residential areasTue, 06/30/2015 - 1:48pm
At the June 10 Grand Marais City Council meeting, Councilor Tim Kennedy said the Grand Marais Planning Commission had revisited the issue of permitting vacation rentals in residential zones, a use which is now prohibited, and decided to take no action, meaning they re-affirmed the zoning standards. Kennedy cited three factors that went into the decision: that vacation rental is incompatible with residential neighborhoods; zones already exist in the city that allow vacation rentals; and there has been no formal request from the public requesting the change.
Due to the planning commission's decision, City Administrator Mike Roth said he would notify those people who are known to be unlawfully operating vacation rentals.

Cook County Vikings preparing for nine-man footballTue, 06/30/2015 - 1:46pm
It seems early in the year, but Cook County High School football players are already thinking of fall. With fewer students in school, and fewer student-athletes to draw from, the Cook County High School football team hasn't had a lot of success the last couple of years.
But a change from 11-man to 9-man football should help, although there is bound to be a fairly steep learning curve in a game tends to have quite a bit more high-octane offense than 11-man football.
To help offset that change, the Vikings sent 17 players to the University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD) annual football team camp during the week of June 15.
Head Coach Mitch Dorr said, "We used the time to learn and practice new offensive and defensive schemes that they will be running as a 9-man football team."
The majority of the time was spent scrimmaging against other 9-man teams said Dorr.
At the end of the camp the Viking coaching staff left feeling very optimistic about the team and the transition to 9-man, said Dorr.

County approves improvements for Hovland Town HallTue, 06/30/2015 - 1:45pm
Commissioner Frank Moe presented his colleagues with a list of renovations his constituents would like to see at the Hovland Town Hall, along with estimates for the work totaling $55,077.80. Moe noted that that figure included some items that had already been approved, such as the purchase and installation of playground equipment and the painting of the building.
Moe said in particular there are concerns about the town hall foundation, which is deteriorating because of water damage. He said the building needs rain gutters and landscaping to drain the water away from the foundation.
Other items requested included painting, scraping and general maintenance of building, a picnic pavilion, picnic tables, benches and garbage cans.
Commissioner Ginny Storlie said the town hall and the Trinity Lutheran Church make a nice little community center. She said preserving the town hall building is important.
Commissioner Heidi Doo-Kirk noted that the county owns a lot of buildings and expressed concern that this would be adding to the county's budget for building maintenance.
Moe agreed that there is a backlog of capital improvements. He said, "It's hard not to be parochial, but there are other places in the county that have meeting places. There is nothing like that in the east end."
Doo-Kirk spoke passionately about needs at the Cook County Airport, noting that the airport board worked hard to find funding for its needs.
Commissioner Jan Sivertson said she felt the Hovland community did get "left out" of the 1 percent recreation and infrastructure discussion. "I do think this is a fairness issue," she said.
Noting that some money had already been earmarked for improvements at the Hovland Town Hall, the board voted to approve spending an additional $42,000 from its building fund. Commissioner Doo-Kirk cast a nay vote.

There is still time to enter Alibi's Eighth Annual Valentine's Day Card Contest. A few entries have trickled in and there's some really good stuff.
As I said before, anything creepy is good. Also, sending stuff laden with precious metals, jewels, cash is always a plus. Journalism is my passion, but it ain't paying the bills. Any cards with valuables I can resell will help ease my transition into organized crime.
Remember: One entry per person. They shouldn't be bigger than an eight and a half by 11 inch piece of paper and should weigh no more than a five kilogram gold brick. Hint.
Mail them to 2118 Central Ave. SE, P.O. Box 151. Entries must be received by Feb. 1. No animal parts, bodily fluids or anything else that will bother my OCD.
Thank you. Have fun.
The winners will be displayed in the Feb. 10 issue of the Alibi.

Happy Birthday, Cristiano Ronaldo!
Feb 5, 2013, 8:31 AM EDT
We are talking about Cristiano Ronaldo because the man turns 28 today.
It's a poignant day, in some ways, because one of the very best of an entire generation is now into career mid-life. Most observers of the game would call him the second best player in the universe; Real Madrid's scoring ace is truly that special.
So why poignant? Because barring an injury to Barcelona rival Leo Messi, this Portuguese force, this top man in a generation, will never be the considered the world's best. At present, there's a fairly sizeable gap between Nos. 1 and 2. In a nutshell, Ronaldo approaches and breaks records; Messi obliterates them.
Considering Ronaldo pretty much is what he is at 28, and considering the 25-year-old Messi may not have quite reached the tip-top of his performance arc, there's little chance of a place swap here.
Still, Ronaldo is a wonder, and his team is fabulously talented. And they begin an enormous home-and-away series next week as Champions League reaches Round-of -16 knockout play.
The highlight of the round sees Ronaldo's former team, mighty Manchester United, facing his current team, Real Madrid.
Next week's first leg (Feb. 13) will take place at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid. What Ronaldo – Again, Happy Birthday, dude! – told UEFA's Champions League magazine about the matchup:
I believe things will go well. In my opinion Real Madrid have a better team, but we have to show that on the pitch because United are a very united team and always have been in recent years. They're a team that always do well, every year they're at the top and therefore a team we respect a lot. It will be an extremely difficult match, especially in Manchester."

Ten-year gilt yields dip below two percent before Greek referendum
LONDON (Reuters) – Ten-year British government bond prices GB10YT=RR rose to a two-week high on Friday as investors piled into safer assets before a referendum which threatens to put Greece on a collision path with its creditors.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said on Friday that the vote would not determine whether Greece stayed in the euro zone, but other European Union politicians said a vote against austerity would leave few options.
EU rules force Britain to curb protection for savers: lawmaker
LONDON, July 3 (Reuters) – British savers will have less of
their money protected if a bank fails next year, the government
said on Friday, blaming European Union rules which one senior
lawmaker called "absurd".
Relations between Britain and the EU are already tense.
Prime Minister David Cameron, who is trying to reshape relations
with the 27-member bloc before calling a referendum by the end
of 2017 on whether to stay in, wants to ensure that Britain is
not disadvantaged by not using the euro.
Conservatives see best chance in 18 years to cut welfare bill
LONDON (Reuters) – Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservatives have their best chance in almost two decades to remould Britain's economy next week, in their first budget statement after an unexpectedly decisive election victory.
Freed from needing the support of their former coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, Conservatives want to reduce borrowing faster this year and set out plans to cut the annual welfare bill by 12 billion pounds ($18.7 billion).
Bank of England delves deeper into market illiquidity conundrum
LONDON, July 1 (Reuters) – The Bank of England's risk
watchdog will extend its focus beyond making banks more stable
to look at the lack of liquidity in fixed-income markets, which
are now braced for more volatility as bonds price in eventual
interest rate rises.
The Bank's Financial Policy Committee (FPC) said in its
twice-yearly report on Wednesday that some markets had become
less liquid to cope with heavy sell-offs, but the reasons for
this were "not yet well understood".
Bank of England says primed for action over Greek crisis
LONDON, July 1 (Reuters) – The Bank of England said on
Wednesday it stood ready to take any action required in response
to Greece's worsening debt crisis, which could trigger wider
problems on financial markets.
Greece on Tuesday became the first advanced economy to
default on an International Monetary Fund loan after the
government in Athens broke off talks with its creditors and shut
down banks.
UK economic growth revised up, buoyed by consumer spending
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain's economy enjoyed a stronger start to the year than previously thought, buoyed by big-spending consumers and an upturn in business investment, but weak exports continued to act as a drag on growth.
New official data on Tuesday showed that over the past year, British households have seen a bigger boost to disposable income than at any time since 2001, as wages started to pick up and inflation fell toward its lowest in more than 50 years.
Deepening Greek crisis gives UK bonds biggest boost in months
LONDON (Reuters) – British government bonds enjoyed their biggest one-day gains in months on Monday, bouncing off the previous week's lows after investors were caught out by an unexpected deepening in Greece's debt crisis over the weekend.
Two-year gilt prices recorded their biggest rise in eight months, while benchmark 10-year British government bonds rebounded from a seven-month low, pushing yields 12 basis points lower on the day to 2.07 percent.
Bank of England chief economist urges against 'early lift off' for rates
LONDON (Reuters) – The Bank of England should steer clear of an early interest rate hike, and is as likely to cut rates as to raise them in future, its chief economist has said.
Andy Haldane said recent strong wage data had not changed his view from earlier in the year about the dangers of tightening policy too soon, adding that a drag on growth from sterling strength could outweigh the gains from higher wages.
EU treaty change would be slow, German minister warns UK's Cameron
LONDON (Reuters) – Prime Minister David Cameron's plan to change the European Union's treaties would take a long time but he could achieve "substantial" reforms to Britain's relationship without it, Germany's Europe minister said on Thursday.
Cameron has promised to renegotiate Britain's relationship with the bloc ahead of a membership referendum by the end of 2017 and has said he believes treaty change will be needed to achieve some of his planned reforms.
UK debt agency head sees higher chance of failed bond auction
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain is at increased risk of failing to find enough buyers at a government bond auction due to big day-to-day swings in market prices, the man responsible for selling the country's debt said on Wednesday.
Robert Stheeman, chief executive of the UK Debt Management Office, told Reuters' online Global Markets Forum that underlying demand for gilts remained strong. But the chances of a significant mismatch between buyers and sellers on a given day had risen as low liquidity was now a genuine problem.

Death Toll in Varna Climbs to 10, More Victims Feared
Ten people, including a child, are confirmed dead in Bulgaria's Black Sea city of Varna, the head of the regional police Nikolai Kalchev told bTV national channel.
Another three have been declared missing.
As previously reported, on Thursday afternoon the city was hit by severe rains and thunderstorms, which caused floods, death and damages. The district of Asparuhovo was hit by a flash flood from the ridge above the area.
According to witnesses, a two-meter wave of water and mud suddenly descended from the ravine and flooded the low lying parts of Asparuhovo. Nova TV national channel reports that cars, camping trailers and home furniture were freely floating in the streets.
Entire sections of Asparuhovo are swamped in mud and water and cannot be reached by rescue teams, who fear the death toll may rise. Electricity in the area has been cut off due to risk of power failure.
Traffic, public transport and mobile phones in the entire city are disrupted.
Authorities advise the residents in the lower parts of Varna to climb to higher ground or to the upper storey of their homes, as meteorologists expect more heavy rains and severe thunderstorms throughout the night.

EA: No
Star Wars
Games Before April 2014
Posted by
May 7, 2013
at 06:32 PM CST |
Yesterday, Disney and EA announced a long-term exclusive partnership for
Star Wars
games. Today, on an earnings call for Electronic Arts shareholders, EA executive chairman Larry Probst told investors that the company will not release a
Star Wars
game during the current fiscal year. Instead,
according to Polygon
, EA "will factor in expenses related to developing new Star Wars games in its fiscal year 2014, which started April 1."
Fiscal Year 2014 ends on March 31, 2014, which means we won't be seeing an EA-made
Star Wars
game until April 2014 at the earliest.

Tennis: Moya's forlorn defence
Saturday 24 April 1999
Another impressive statistic was the confirmation of a pounds 750m 10-year agreement granting television, marketing and licensing rights for the ATP Tour to International Sporting Leisure Worldwide, who have provided a similar service for the Olympic Games and the Fifa World Cup.
Moya, who spent two weeks as the world No 1 in March, has lost each of his three matches against Golmard, a left-hander from Dijon, ranked No 25 in the world, who lived up to Tim Henman's description of him as "unorthodox, but effective".
Even so, Henman, who has suffered three times at the Frenchman's hands, would have been surprised how ineffective Moya was in the final set, particularly since Golmard took an injury time-out for treatment to his right thigh. The Spaniard cut a forlorn figure, receiving a code violation for hitting the ball into the stands after losing the first three games.
"I did that in frustration," Moya said. "Golmard was cramping, but the winners kept coming. I've not seen a player hit the lines as much as he did."
An all-Spanish quarter-final duel was won by Felix Mantilla, who repeated his victory against Albert Costa in last year's Bournemouth final, although in tighter circumstances. Mantilla had his first match point in the second set, but was taken to a tie-break. Costa, who led 3-0 in the third set, went on to create four match points at 5-3. This time he was the one taken to a tie-break, which Mantilla secured 7-4 with his second match point, winning 6-4, 6-7, 7-6 after two hours and 46 minutes.
In today's semi-finals, Mantilla will play the Brazilian Gustavo Kuerten, the 1997 French Open champion, who ended the American Vince Spadea's encouraging first visit to Monte Carlo, 6-3, 6-3.
Tim Henman and Greg Rusedski are least effective during the clay-court season, both losing in the second round here this week after byes in the opening round. Henman, who gave a creditable performance while losing in three sets to Fernando Meligeni in the singles, at least advanced to his first clay-court doubles semi-final yesterday, partnering the Frenchman Olivier Delaitre. They defeated the Italian Davis Cup pair, Andrea Gaudenzi and Diego Nargiso 7-6, 6-3, winning the first-set tie-break 8-6, and now play Don Johnson, of the United States, and Cyril Suuk, of the Czech Republic.
ISL Worldwide will focus on increasing the exposure of the ATP Tour's Super 9 tournaments, at Indian Wells, Key Biscayne, Monte Carlo, Hamburg, Rome, Montreal, Cincinnati, Stuttgart and Paris, and the year-end ATP Tour Championship, which is due to move from Hanover after this season. These are the most important men's tournaments outside the four Grand Slams: Wimbledon, plus the French, United States and Australian Opens
ISL Worldwide's managing director, Daniel Beauvois, spoke about creating a specific look for the Super 9s and linking them with "blue chip global companies".
The Buchholz brothers, Butch and Cliff, are in the process of selling their Super 9 event at Key Biscayne, Florida, to Mark McCormack's International Management Group for a reported pounds 18.75m. The tournament, formerly sponsored by Lipton, becomes the Ericsson Open from next year. It is intended that the Buchholzs, who built the tournament over 15 years, will continue to organise the event for the next five years at least.

University of Texas Arlington
UT Arlington to offer a minor in environmental and sustainability studies
Tuesday, May 11, 2010
Media Contact: Sue Stevens
ARLINGTON - The University of Texas at Arlington School of Urban and Public Affairs will offer a minor in environmental and sustainability studies beginning in fall 2010. It will provide credentials in the field of sustainability to students in a variety of majors.
Biology Professor James P. Grover, who serves as chairman of the University Sustainability Committee's work group focused on curriculum, said the minor will be beneficial to students like the science major who wants to work in environmental science or oversight with a regulatory agency and the liberal arts major who wants to work in broad areas of public policy.
The environmental and sustainability studies minor will require 18 credit hours. A new three-hour core course will be offered for the first time in spring 2011. Jeff Howard, assistant professor in the School of Urban and Public Affairs and founding co-chairman of the University Sustainability Committee, will teach the core course. He said it will have three focuses: offering the students a broad overview of issues and perspectives from the field of environmental studies, giving them a framework to integrate their other coursework into the minor and directly involving them in North Texas environmental projects like prairie restoration.
In addition to the core course, the minor requires 15 hours of approved courses taken in each of three areas, liberal arts; natural sciences and engineering; and urban and public affairs and architecture.
In geology, for example, sustainability related courses deal with climate change and global warming. In English there are special topics classes that address environmental literature.
Meghna Tare, director of sustainability for UT Arlington, said the new minor will build a solid foundation for sustainability major in future, give students an opportunity to learn the principles of sustainability and the expertise to possibly pursue a career in the area of sustainability.
"Our economy and society are dependent on a healthy environment. Sustainability requires balancing economic success with environmental conservation and social equity, also known as the triple bottom line," Tare said. "The University of Texas at Arlington is committed to this triple bottom line and is striving to become a leader in campus sustainability."
Please visit http://www.uta.edu/supa/undergraduate/ESSTminor.php or contact Rod Hissong, associate professor in the School of Urban and Public Affairs at email@example.com or 817-272-3350 for more information about the program.

As Grandparents traveling with our Daughter, her husband their 9, 7, and 5 month old children from Arizona to Disney World, we were really uncertain and needed some things that we could never have packed and traveled with. This service was perfect. We didn't pack diapers, wipes, snacks, water (save a bundle with their water vs the Parks' water), sunscreen etc etc. We literally did nothing but order it and It was delivered to our room. Highly recommend this service!
I highly recommend using Garden Grocers. The selection of products is competitive and the service is excellent. They actually take the time to follow up! This is our second time using the service and we will continue to use this service. They text you to let you know your order is with Bell Services (while you are on route to the resort). Just one less thing you have to worry about when planning the trip. Again, excellent service.
Easy to order. Used for Disney trip. Followup and delivery was great. Would definitely recommend.

5 Revolting Facets Of American Culture
My latest PJ Media columns is called, 5 Revolting Facets Of American Culture. Here's an excerpt from the column,
1) An elevation of victimhood
In a weird reversal of how the world has worked since man was raised up out of the dust, it has become good to be a victim in America. In fact, many of the people held up as "victims" in our country are loving every second of their "victimhood."
The best recent example of that phenomenon is Sandra Fluke. Here's an unaccomplished 30 year old student who went to Congress and demanded that other people be forced to pay thousands of dollars a year to subsidize her birth control. It's like the set-up of a stand-up comedian's joke, except that when people responded with the natural punch lines which featured lots of "She's a slut" jokes, Sandra Fluke was treated like a victim. Next thing you know, she's on TV, she's treated like a heroine, she gets a speaking slot at the Democratic Convention. For a 5th rate mediocrity like Sandra Fluke, her supposed "victimhood" was the best thing that ever happened to her.
Then there's bus monitor Karen Klein. People felt sorry for the nice old lady who was bullied by kids on a bus – so much so that they chipped in more than a half million dollars to help her out. However, this was an adult whose job was to keep kids from being bullied. How many kids on that bus must have been abused because she was so completely unsuited to the job she willingly chose to take on? At the end of the day, she wasn't a "victim" in any meaningful sense; she was just a failure at her job.
Does treating people like this as heroes strike anyone as healthy or good for the country? At best, victims should be pitied, not celebrated or rewarded.
Once again, you can read it all here.

Researcher Says "Haters" Are Better At Focusing On Things They Really Like
By Lynne Adkins
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — If you're one of those people who just doesn't love everything, that might not be a bad thing.
You're a liker, or a hater. Haters just don't enjoy everything they encounter, and while you might think that's not a good thing it might not be according to Justin Hepler, assistant professor of psychology at The University of Reno-Nevada.
He says his research with the University of Pennsylvania shows haters focus on just a few things, because they just don't like that much.
"You spend a lot of time doing a specific behavior, you get really good at it instead of darting form activity to activity. It might help with expertise."
He says likers do everything, so they have less time for each thing they do.

This band needs your help to smash "fake geek girl" persecution
Oregon band The Doubleclicks are adding their voices to the fight against "fake geek girl" claims and misogyny in geek culture with a new track called "Nothing to Prove."
The song, from the duo's forthcoming album "Lasers and Feelings," highlights the questioning geek girls often face about their authenticity and sends a message of geek pride in spite of the haters.
Now the band is backing up that message with a music video for the song, created with the help of geek girls online.
The band is asking female geeks to submit 5- to 8-second videos of themselves holding up a sign that answers one or two of these four questions: What got you into geekdom? What kind of geek are you now? How can being a geek girl be weird and frustrating? What message would you like to give to the bullies who try to shame women out of the geek community?
If you submit a sign by July 8, your message could be part of the video—especially if you answer question 3 or 4, the two questions the band needs the most help with.
Lasers and Feelings is due out July 9.

Fears grow as study shows genetically modified crops "can cause liver and kidney damage"
2010-04-14 0:00
Fresh fears were raised over GM crops yesterday after a study showed they can cause liver and kidney damage.
According to the research, animals fed on three strains of genetically modified maize created by the U.S. biotech firm Monsanto suffered signs of organ damage after just three months.
The findings only came to light after Monsanto was forced to publish its raw data on safety tests by anti-GM campaigners.
They add to the evidence that GM crops may damage health as well as be harmful to the environment.
The figures released by Monsanto were examined by French researcher Dr Gilles-Eric Seralini, from the University of Caen.
Yesterday he called for more studies to check for long-term organ damage.
´What we´ve shown is clearly not proof of toxicity, but signs of toxicity,´ he told New Scientist magazine. ´I´m sure there´s no acute toxicity but who´s to say there are no chronic effects?´
The experiments were carried out by Monsanto researchers on three strains of GM maize. Two of the varieties contained genes for the Bt protein which protects the plant against the corn borer pest, while a third was genetically modified to be resistant to the weedkiller glyphosate. All three strains are widely grown in America, while one is the only GM crop grown in Europe, mostly in Spain.
Monsanto only released the raw data after a legal challenge from Greenpeace, the Swedish Board of Agriculture and French anti- GM campaigners.
Dr Seralini concluded that rats which ate the GM maize had ´ statistically significant´ signs of liver and kidney damage. Each strain was linked to unusual concentrations of hormones in the blood and urine of rats fed the maize for three months, compared to rats given a non-GM diet.
The higher hormone levels suggest that animals´ livers and kidneys are not working properly.
Female rats fed one of the strains also had higher blood sugar levels and raised levels of fatty substances caused triglycerides, Dr Seralini reported in the International Journal of Microbiology.
The analysis concluded: ´These substances have never before been an integral part of the human or animal diet and therefore their health consequences for those who consume them, especially over long time periods are currently unknown.´
Monsanto claimed the analysis of its data was ´based on faulty analytical methods and reasoning, and does not call into question the safety findings for these products´.

Ripples from ESPN's decision to launch a new 3-D sports network are being felt in the U.S. production community.
The most recent evidence is last week's announcement by NEP Broadcasting that it was rolling out two new 3-D production trucks this month. They will make their debut providing production services for ESPN 3D's coverage of the State Farm Home Run Derby July 12 from Angel Stadium in Anaheim, CA.
NEP's SS31 is a revamp of the mobile production truck the production services company cut its 3-D teeth on. SS32 is a new 3-D vehicle. Both are built for 3-D production and will give NEP a strong presence in this emerging slice of the mobile production market.
According to George Hoover, chief technology officer of NEP, 2010 will prove to be the "year of the great 3-D test" a period when everyone from viewers to CE vendors, TV programmers to broadcast service providers learn if 3-D TV enjoys success similar to what 3-D films have found in the theater.
In this podcast interview, Hoover discusses the new vehicles, the thinking behind the trucks, the challenge of finding engineering and production talent for 3-D work and where live 3-D television production may be headed.
