Take 5 with "Twisted Ways of YOU"
We've asked the filmmakers for the 11th annual Oxford Film Festival the same five questions. Meet DAniel Guaqueta, director, editor, camera operator and songwriter of Twisted Ways of YOU. This film will be screening Friday, Feb. 7 at 2 p.m. and Sunday, Feb. 9 at 2 p.m..
#1: In 140 characters or less, describe your movie and why someone should see it.
It's a music video of a man who dances away his confusions in a twisted contorted manner with his jam box anywhere any time…why not…he has batteries! I believe that this dance will catch on. It's very unique.
#2: Biggest lesson learned in getting the film made? Best part in getting the film made?
I learned that showing up unannounced anywhere with a jam box and a dancer dressed in a solid color with a mask on is the best way to disturb the norm. I enjoyed working with the dancer and letting him show his artistry through the music and performance. I love making videos to include others and to make them feel like stars!
#3: Tell us about you. What is your movie making background?
I'm a musician at first, but I love video, I especially love music videos, so I strived to make my own. Some videos I make are high budget, some are low…it doesn't really matter to me as long as I can make a video to a song I wrote. That's what I live for. Sometimes music can be confusing to folks, so I have always strived to continue confusing folks because I don't believe in the norm. I like the obscure, the weird, the obtuse….the ugly. I like ugly. I'm ugly….we are all pretty ugly if we look at ourselves in the mirror long enough.
#4 What do you want the Oxford Film Festival audience to know about your film that isn't obvious from its title or description?
Whatever is behind the mask is not important. It's the mask that you're looking at that's important. Stop trying to read into everything in life. Life is just what it is, and if you accept the weird things that you can't understand, to impact you, you just may have a better life. Accept the mask, accept the weird….and you may actually unlock something inside of yourself. Don't be afraid to like something that you don't understand immediately. Familiarity is boring.
#5: What does the future hold in store for your film and for you?
I intend to continue making weird stuff. Because I'm normal.

I've got news for you vegans -- a new meat missionary is out to convert you all. Simon Fairlie, author of Meat, a Benign Extravagance, has already turned George Monbiot, a high-profile English vegan activist. George's vegan retraction "I was wrong about veganism" is a delicious read for carnivores.
I've had plenty of arguments with vegan activists who think soy burgers are more environmentally friendly than grass-fed beef, and frankly, I'm sick of this nonsense. Soy-based foods and other fake meat products are incredibly processed and come from environmentally unfriendly monoculture farms. They're a disaster.
But fine, you vegans have a point about most meat, milk, and egg production being cruel to animals and inefficient. So how did Fairlie turn George the Vegan?
It's all about which meat you eat and how it's raised. Fairlie says that small-scale, holistic-minded farms that raise animals on pastures can actually be very efficient and earth-friendly -- especially when those animals are eating foods humans don't eat. Let me count the ways.
1. Pasture-raised pigs can eat whey (a dairy byproduct), leftovers, and agriculture waste. They turn waste into food!
2. Cows eat grass and other "weeds" and they aerate the ground, which helps produce more grass, which puts more clean oxygen into the atmosphere.
3. Many vegetable oils have a larger carbon footprint than animal fats.
4. Farm animals on a well-managed farm can help fertilize crops.
5. Raising livestock the "slow" way helps us all value our food and farmers more, and encourages us to eat more carefully.
And by the way, that famous UN claim that livestock generates 18% of global carbon emissions is wrong; the report lumped in deforestation from logging and development (not farm-related) and included other errors.
Keep in mind, Fairlie isn't advocating a big, fat, carnivore meatfest every day. He only eats meat twice a week and thinks we could all stand to reduce our consumption. Eating meat less often is actually how I make eating more expensive pasture-raised meat affordable. Buying direct from farmers is another way -- yes, you can even do that in Brooklyn!
And so, I raise my bug-fed chicken leg in a toast to carnivores everywhere. Let us eat meat -- but thoughtfully and in moderation.

Very good to know
i'm vegan and i don't eat soy products and fake meats...i think they are horrible for the environment (and our bodies) and i do not want to support that, so i do want everyone here to know that not all vegans eat soy products...
i do agree that an ORGANIC farm with cows and pigs and chicken can be great for the earth and that there are benefits to that, but just the fact that only 2% of all the worlds farms are organic means that farming the way you describe in this article is just not something that is happening right now...it is dream that all farms would go organic, that the animals would be treated fairly and not fed corn (which messes up their insides) so that our world could be a better place...but there is no way that 98% of all the other animal farms will go organic...they can't make enough money that way...that's just how it is...that is why i do not support the eating of meat...if ALL meat was from organic farms and the animals were treated right then i probably would eat meat on occassion, but since they are not, i will not support the meat industry
Yes, these are five ways meat can save the eat (and #5 is tenuous at best), however being vegetarian saves the earth a thousand ways. I wish though that people would get away from the idea that all vegetarians advocate for "fake-meat" and tofu products. I've been a vegetarian for going on eight years now, and I don't use those products and quite frankly, none of the vegetarians that I know do. I think most people assume that that is what most vegetarians eat to get protein, but peas, beans, pulses and grains can provide all the protein a body needs. Without the by-products of meat.
Love my meat!!
I love my meat AND my veggies.
Good to know.

Despite the incessant drumbeat of poor economic data -- consumer confidence fell to a record low in December and the price of single-family homes plunged in October -- the majority of Americans are optimistic about what is in store in 2009.
The Marist College canvassed 1,003 Americans about their expectations for 2009 on December 9 and 10 -- days after the National Bureau of Economic Research confirmed the United States had been mired in a recession since December 2007.
Expectations for a brighter future were higher among younger generations with 64 percent of those under 45 having an optimistic view compared with 52 percent for those 45 or older.
Based on last year's results, those who aim to improve their lives in 2009 will have at least partial success. In 2008, 60 percent kept their self-made promises for at least part of the year.
Are you optimistic about 2009? What resolutions will you make to improve your life in 2009?

Put the Sizzle Back into Baby Making
What's another word for trying to conceive? Oh yeah, SEX!
Are you ovulating? Did you take your temperature? Are you doing it with him on top or you? Hurry! Do it now! Now, wait 20 minutes after climaxing. Repeat monthly until baby is in the belly ...
Most couples that want a baby get highly educated about ovulation, conception, and pregnancy. The problem is, too many couples are overeducated, and sex turns into a utility chore to administer every month with perfect timing.
"Making a baby is organic -- we're talking about spontaneous conception -- and you don't want to turn sex into work," says Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz, OB/GYN and advisor at momlogic. "People get really weirded out about timing and positions and ovulation, and the reality is, making a baby is not a job. If you need help, we'll figure out why and work with that. In the meantime, you should be enjoying the sex."
Sex experts like to suggest different positions to supposedly aid the sperm in their journey to the egg. But there's no research to support it. What sexperts are really saying is try a particular position because it's different and it'll make you feel sexy and frisky. When you're feeling frisky, you're relaxed and not in that super-earnest must-get-pregnant mind-set.
When you relax, in other words, you're that much closer to a baby.
"While the jury's still out on whether or not certain positions actually work, trying different things helps you enjoy lots of good, condom-free lovin'," says Dr. Sadie Allison, sex and relationship expert at ticklekitty.com, and author of "Ride 'Em Cowgirl! Sex Position Secrets for Better Bucking."
|Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz completed her undergraduate education at Wesleyan University and post-baccalaureate pre-med studies at Mills College. She earned her medical degree from the USC School of Medicine and has been in private practice for 9 years. She is the co-founder of Cedar Sinai Medical Center's Green Committee and lives in Los Angeles with her husband and two children.

No Arrival or Waiting for Moto
"There's man all over for you, blaming on his boots the faults of his feet."
Samuel Beckett, Waiting for Godot
I was sprawled out, wrinkled, rumpled, unbuckled, slouched out all over the carriage of a tuk-tuk. Informal pose, semi-formal wear. If a person can still qualify for "semi" just by wearing a tie, even as he's sweating like Chris Farley when he was looking sick and like to die, mid-sketch, full sketchy, right there under the Klieg lights. I was prone and pathetic in a gesture of obeisance to the heat, a lazy surrender, a dog rolling over and showing its belly to some unseen Alpha male.
I had become accustomed to the objectionable. An unreasonably endless drive into town, to get from the room I was renting at a house on the outskirts of the city, out past the airport, reasons various for my presence there, none of them compelling. If I wanted to engage with Phnom Penh proper it meant an unhappy superheated commute to and then through the busy streets that serve as the trash-strewn centers of the city for barang of all stripes and types and inclinations. When traffic was heavy my eyelids got heavier.
I passed most of the late morning insensible, laid out length-wise, like the corpse of a Roman Senator at the end of all his feasts. His body still bloated from feeding, just moments ago he felt nauseous from wine; but now he feels nothing, no pain, no desire, and that nothing is something divine.
Which is to say: I was out of it. Half-dozing, near-drooling, nodding off, dope dreaming in the innards of my own mobile opium den, blissfully asleep and mostly unaware of bodily encumbrances and physical realities. Hot? Cold? Unconscious. Pain? Pleasure? There is no weather. I'd taken nothing pharmaceutical nor chemical, medical or recreational, but the heat had me beat. Beat down and tired out and my clothes needed to be wrung out, and maybe I was hung over, but then who wasn't these days? I'd survived thousands of those and I'd kept it upright and could hold on steady come the rain, sleet, or snow. Please? Please come? Rain? Come on, Sleet? Mr. Snow?
My blissful somnolence was often encroached upon and cruelly broken by ruinous roads that kept my world shuddering and shaking and I'd be jolted into sudden waking, lurching upright in little fits with excited starts of small dismay when I see that it is day, the Sun still hung high in our sky. I closed my eyes and hid from the angry light, and before too long I'd find that I'd lost myself, curled up comfortably in the corner of my mind, slipping to sleeping again and no more nearer to any new destination as not. Adrift, abroad, and at the mercy of the city.
The driver must have been in a deep trance of his own pathology, because he never bothered me with any doubts if he had them, never stopped to ask any questions of his fellow drivers, never just creeped to a halt, never coughed politely as he proceeded to wait for me to waken. He just kept going.
Eventually, of course, some little pangs of my anxiety began to perk up. My notably weak instinct for self-preservation is never of much use, so then probably it was just my weary curiosity. My misgivings began doing a slow burn on my theretofore bountiful patience, and as I lost faith in the wisdom of the whole endeavor, I began plotting to return to my remote headquarters and start investigating opportunities for teaching further north, much further north, maybe even as far north as I could go without finding myself heading south again.
I had no idea that the tuk-tuk wasn't going anywhere in particular. I had no idea that the tuk-tuk had no idea that I had no idea where I was going either. It shouldn't have been remotely possible for him to assume that some pale faced fatso from beyond the limits of the ocean's horizon somehow knew how to get around town better than he did. Since this was WHAT he did. For a fucking living! And yet, within a few months he'd be right as rain in the monsoon months; I would know where to go, how to get there, no problem, and yet – still, he would not.

5 Messy Chic Bouquets
At this point in the summer we've haven't got any more energy for anything fussy or proper or...time consuming. So we love the idea of having some fresh picked messiness in our bouquets. They're easy, they're cheap and help us indulge in the last lazy days of summer.
1. Fresh Picked: This image comes from the LA flickr pool and wood and wool's photo stream. We love the vase which lends itself to creating an arrangement out of a hodge podge of flowers and greenery and making it look beautifully messy and romantic.
2. Saturday Morning Flowers: Reminiscent of walking through fields in the summer time and filling our fists with whatever we can find, a tight messy bouquet of greenery and flowers is perfect for summer.
3. Simple Summer Arrangement: We found this one earlier in the summer and loved the use of different sized vessels and just a couple of found plants, or perhaps what's left of a dying bouquet.
4. Frugal Flowers: Take a supermarket bouquet and deconstruct it into a messy bouquet in a simple glass canning jar.
5. Market Flowers: Choosing one type of flower (like ranunculus in the picture or tulips) that are a little unruly, a little messy and lighthearted and filling a simple vessel takes just a minute. Bonus: as tulips and ranunculus age they droop and flop in the most romantic ways (just make sure you clip the bottoms of the stems every couple of days to keep them alive longer).

The perfect antidote to flower *arrangements.*

awesome website, maudinphilly. thanks.
Laure, I love the first photo! thanks for posting :)

Just because you have a nice camera does not make you a good videographer. I'm tired of watching these boring, zero substance videos that have nothing going for them except the fact that it was filmed with an expensive camera. I would rather see a shit-quality video that has decent shots, framing, and substance.
I'm gonna buy me some film and Imma make a damn video on my great-grandfather's Revere 40. Y'all will see what's up. Sara's back in the game.
But I guess I should probably get a job first…

I like this video. First time I've seen someone who suspects the Black Manta has rudders/stabalizers. Cool. The ball of light cloaking mechanism is cool, too.

zerox August 24, 2009 9:30:38 PM CEST
This is a fake in my opinion. I have seen these triangular craft on more than a single occasion and they do not have rudders/stabilizers. If this is real, it is not extraterrestrial and would have to be man made. Another thing that makes me think it is fake is the way the center light came on. It flickered like a light bulb, which simply would not happen on these spacecraft. I also find suspicious that when ever the camera zooms in it immediately looses focus, but never regains focus. Most modern cameras are CCD and have an infinite focus, so objects a mile away will be just as focused as an object an inch in front of the camera lens.
Edpotk August 20, 2009 9:29:41 AM CEST
FAKE!! Why would a spaceship that can hover need vertical stabilizers??? The guys reactions are rather absent for what he is supposedly seeing!
Smuggler August 19, 2009 12:30:31 PM CEST
Not just fake but a poor fake.....

Great condition on arrival
great product
Pretty good camera system. There may be better ones, but this one does the job fine.
Beware of first time buyer with this camera. I bought just the rcx-2 10mp trail camera, not knowing that I needed a controller to set camera up and operate it. Thru SG I could not just buy a controller for the camera I had so I had to buy another camera rcx-2 10mp with controller (a kit). I could of returned the first camera and know SG would of refunded me for it. I now have two cam and controller. It takes a little while to get use to operating, good pics night and day fast shutter speed.
I think some thing is wrong with the camera, durring set up you view the camera set up thru the handheld device, half the screen is in black/white the other side is in color? My other leupold view is all color. I am calling leupold to see what is up,but I think it may need to be replaced,because of shipping read general comments

Comments about 5 Gallon Oil-Free Portable Tri-Stack Air Compressor:
This tool draws a lot of power, do not use a cord as you most likely will burn the motor. This device dows not have a trip if you don't have 15 amps.
Comments about 5 Gallon Oil-Free Portable Tri-Stack Air Compressor:
I bought 2 units one for my dad on father day and one to keep for myself. But they're arrived with the box 3 times bigger than a unit and there is nothing to protect it other than few paper wrapped around it. One were ok excepted few scratched here and there. The other one were broken the latch to lock top part and bottom part together. I did tried to fixed many times but unsuccessful and gave up. As far as use this for air tools. I did lost power and unit seem to run awhile before it stop eventhough there is no leaking air nowhere. Stay away.

Comments about 5 Gallon Oil-Free Portable Tri-Stack Air Compressor:
This product came broken upon arrival. It was horridly packed so i can see why it was broken. We ordered a new one and the 2nd one was even worse than the first one. There was NO packing material even in the box and the fan and fan cover was in pieces, the bracket was bent and it was dinged up like crazy. i think they need to reevaluate their shipping department

Comments about 5 Gallon Oil-Free Portable Tri-Stack Air Compressor:
I like the multi-functions of this air compressor. While it is heavy, it can be split up when you carry it making it easier. I have used it for a week and a half now and have been very impressed. It does it's job well.

Photo Tip: Keep an "I Look Great" Folder
Most people organize their photos based on dates, places and purposes. This is great for general storage, but I also keep one very important file in my photo storage: it's called the "I Look Great!" folder.
What's in this self-esteeming boosting file?
My favorite headshots, the best pictures of my boyfriend and I, and a few special pictures with family members.
The "I Look Great!" file has saved me a lot of time on more than one occasion. For example, I'm never at a loss for what to give conference organizers or colleagues when they ask for a headshot. I've already chosen a couple that I love.
When you create this file, I suggest you make copies of your images from their original location and paste them into the new folder. This will increase your photo storage needs, but since this folder should be relatively small, it shouldn't increase by an outrageous amount.
In addition, store only edited versions of the photos in this folder, because the RAW files will be an additional storage hog and in theory, this folder should be a time saver too.
Next time an aunt or cousin asks you for a photo for a family frame, you won't have to look through thousands and thousands of pictures only to get frustrated because you don't like anything. You will already have pre-selected photos, which you will be happy to share.
It may seem vain, but if you're obsessive about photo organization and speed, you could benefit from this tip.

In other words, Facebook profile photos.
Should be titled, "You look maaah-velous!" folder.
I refer to mine as my "Greatest Hits" folder.
@YULIA YUN, exactly. This is a list is called "photos I didn't have to un-tag myself from on Facebook".
love this :).
Well, that's clever. I never thought of that!
I have a folder like this -- I named it "vanity." It's very helpful when I need a new profile pic for social networking.
haha i totally do this too, i have jokingly named it my "glamour shots" folder. Whenever I upload photos to my computer i usually end up dropping one or two in there.
lol I have a folder like this too. I called my 'Im vain" lol It does come in hand though.
sounds like a good idea to me.. i wish more people who hire graphic designers had a folder such as this.. it would make my job much easier than going through all their pics to find that one that looks decent for their website
Um, why are y'all saving photos where you *don't* look great?
I had a similar idea last year and couldn't find a decent photo I liked of myself-I'm the one taking most of the photos in my family. So I started taking a self portrait each time I had my hair cut. Those are the days I think I look the most presentable and feel really good about it. Now I've got 5 photos that I can use and they are all from this century!
This post made me smile :)
Love the idea of taking a photo on haircut day. So clever!
I have a folder like that titled "me," it's where I got when I want to pick a new facebook profile picture! I also have a file of good pictures of me and my fiance, and me and my family.

New technologies emerge for credit card processing security and ease of use
By Joseph Trigliari
One new technology, expected to be released soon, is capable of reading the numbers on a credit card through a video, rather than a swipe, debtmerica.com reports. The website adds that this type of technology can tell if a card is fraudulent or not better than the typical swipe can.
The consumer will hold the card to a camera, where the image is then encrypted and streamed to the company's servers, while only having to punch in the security code after. This could be a breakthrough in PCI compliance, as the company releasing the program presents it as a more secure alternative to other credit card processing methods.
PCI compliance requires adherence to standard security measures by merchants and member service providers. Northwestern University cites MasterCard's Site Data Protection Program and Visa's Cardholder Information Security Program as two examples of this.

What PCI DSS Compliance Means and Why It's Important for Your Business
What does PCI DSS compliance mean and why is it important for your business? We should start by answering the first question: The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of requirements designed to ensure that companies that process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. These regulations are continually changing as newer and more secure technology is implemented to combat security threats.Full Article
The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) has released The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Version 3.0, which will be effective as of January 1st, 2014. The new version of PCI DSS recommends compliance as an ongoing practice to ensure that organizations who deal with payment card data remain compliant, even between annual assessments.Full Article

Super Vitamin Pak Providing A Complete Vitamin & Mineral Dietary Supplement!
For the human body to perform at its maximum potential, it must be fed a vast and complex array of vital nutrients. Becoming deficient in just one of these essential vitamins or minerals breaks down the metabolic pathway that produces optimum efficiency and performance declines. Not good! Daily consumption of a high-potency multivitamin/multimineral formula may help ensure the presence of essential cofactors necessary for thousands of metabolic reactions.
Many people underestimate the importance of them. They think that since you can not get 10 pounds of muscle, it is useless to take them. But here is something very important. If your body is deficient in just one of the essential vitamins and minerals over a thousand chemical and enzymatic processes in your body could be impaired. Each and every vitamin and mineral is responsible for thousands of biochemical reactions, including the formation of hormones. Bottom line? If you don't use a good multivitamin and mineral formula you will never reach your fullest potential.
Get your total vitamin and mineral profile every day, hassle-free for a full month. Super Vitamin Pak contains 30 individually packed pouches, each containing a full-day supply of vitamins and minerals for sustained good health.

What once served as a funeral home, is now the most in demand place for parents to stay when their kids are in need of special treatment at Toledo hospitals.
The Ronald McDonald House on Monroe Street has been serving the community for more than three decades, but it has outgrown its current space and needs to expand.
It's not uncommon for all 14 rooms to be occupied for the night. Often times, the charity has no choice but to put families in local hotels because they don't want to turn them away. As a result, for the last couple of years, they have been campaigning for a bigger facility.
Groundbreaking is set for May 13, moving the facility across the street, and expanding it to 28 bedrooms. The outside of the building will also be painted in bright colors.
"Part of the reason we chose to be as colorful as we have is the kids are gonna be able to see that from the hospital and know that's where mom and dad are staying. So we wanted it to be fun and vibrant and a place that really inspired people to get better," said Chad Bringman, president of Ronald McDonald House of Northwest Ohio.
Increasing the number of bedrooms meant increasing the kitchen size, which Bringman says will be more family friendly.
The Ronald McDonald House does not charge families to stay. The organization focuses more on providing a close place for them to stay while their child gets better.
"We have to remember that when people knock on our doors, today is probably the worst day of their life. And they've traveled far from home, sometimes very unexpectedly. So we have a very short window of time for people to feel comfortable, to feel safe and know that this is a place they can stay, whether it's one day or three months or 19 months - however long that might be - they have to feel that they have a place that's clean, comfortable, but also, affordable," explained Bringman.
This week, the Ronald McDonald House will be launching a public campaign to raise money for the expansion project. So far, $7.2 million of the $8 million has been raised.

A Trip Through My Eyes…
For Laura's project
This is a double trip, really… The train you see here was visiting Wales from Scotland and had to take took a torturous route on a rather large flat-back lorry along some very winding roads. It was appearing in the annual gala at the Llangollen Railway, which lasts for tens days after which all the visiting locomotives go home again, including this one.
The second part involves me… Although the railway is not a huge distance from my home this locomotive was working a very early train, like 7:30am! I set off at 5:30 because I had a particular spot in mind for my picture (the location featured here) and I didn't want to miss out on the best pitch.
I arrived in good time, set everything up and, while waiting for the train on a bitterly cold spring morning, eating breakfast and drinking hot coffee… and waited.
About 7:30 I could hear the train starting out from about a half mile away. The noise grew and eventually the train hove into view working very hard and throwing out lots of smoke. The noise bouncing back from the trees was tremendous.
Steadily, the train gathered momentum and I was rewarded for my early morning start with this image. Was it worth it? You bet it was!
I spent the rest of the day in various locations along the line photographing more trains (yesterday's image was another from this day) before wending my way home tired by satisfied with what was a quite magical trip. I finally arrived home at 9:30pm tired and a happy man; a good day and a good image.

"Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It's the unspoken truth of humanity, that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power, for identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end- you will always kneel." ♔
