LONDON — Demand for U.K. rights to independent films from the U.S. and around the world is set for a significant boost with the start of digital terrestrial TV in Britain next year.
Channel 4 is planning to launch a pay movie service via digital terrestrial, which will concentrate exclusively on indie pics, many of which would not previously have found a British buyer.
Prices paid are likely to be modest, at least initially while digital terrestrial establishes itself. But the new C4 service will at least offer an entry point to the U.K. market, which is notoriously the most difficult of all the major foreign territories in which to sell an indie pic.
C4 will consider buying pay TV rights alone, pay and free-TV rights together, or in some cases all U.K. rights. The web has its own theatrical distribution arm, which mainly releases C4's own productions, but also makes occasional pickups.
The total launch cost of the C4 digital channel, provisionally titled the Channel 4 Film Club, is estimated at $25 million to $40 million a year. As well as indie movies from around the world, it will screen docus on filmmakers and discussions about the pics it shows.
English-language pics from America and Australia will be high on the C4 shopping list, although it will also screen some foreign-lingo fare. "There's a lot of output from Australia in recent years that hasn't been seen at all over here," said a C4 source.
C4's own movies will provide the backbone of the service, but the web is also seeking to expand its access to British films by striking a pay TV deal with British Screen Finance, the semi-public film investor.
At the moment, British Screen has a pay TV deal with BSkyB, which pays around $330,000 per British Screen pic. That pact is currently up for renegotiation, and C4 is emerging as a rival to the satcaster for the deal.
Ironically, British Screen originally struck the deal with BSkyB in order to prevent C4 from simply blocking out the pay TV window on pics they financed together. This caused a huge falling-out between British Screen and C4, and resulted in the two principal backers of British movies virtually ceasing to work together for the past couple of years.
Six blocks of frequencies, each with capacity for about five channels, have been carved out for digital terrestrial. Three of these "multiplexes" have been automatically assigned to the existing terrestrial webs, to be used partly for rebroadcasting their services with the added benefit of widescreen and digital sound, and partly for launching new services such as the C4 Film Club.
The BBC will use the spare capacity on its multiplex to launch a 24-hour news channel, among other new public-service programming initiatives.
The other three multiplexes were awarded June 24 to British Digital Broadcasting, a consortium backed by Carlton and Granada, which will carry channels from BSkyB and new commercial services from the BBC. BDB will be responsible for driving consumer sales of the set-top decoders needed to pick up the programming from all six multiplexes.

The Survival of Ultrashort Locking-Taper Implants
Rainier A. Urdaneta, DMD/Shadi Daher, DMD/Joseph Leary, DMD/Kimberly M. Emanuel, RDH/Sung-Kiang Chuang, DMD, MD
Purpose: To evaluate the performance of 5-mm-long implants. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted between January 2008 and December 2009. The sample was composed of patients who had received at least one 5-mm-wide, hydroxyapatite-coated Bicon implant. The outcome variable was implant failure. Descriptive statistics and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models, adjusted for multiple implants in the same patient, were utilized to identify predictors of dental implant failure. Results: Two hundred ninety-one subjects who received 410 locking-taper implants were followed for an average of 20 months. Of these, 211 were ultrashort implants (57 were 5 × 5.0 mm and 154 were 5 × 6.0 mm) and 199 were short implants (5 × 8.0 mm). Three hundred twenty-two implants (93.4%) were restored with single crowns. There was a higher proportion of ultrashort single-tooth implants (94.6%) as compared to short single-tooth implants (92.2%). Nine implants failed, for a cumulative survival rate of 97.5%. Of the failed implants, five were ultrashort (all 5 × 6.0 mm) and four were short. No failures were documented for 5- × 5.0-mm ultrashort implants. There was no statistically significant difference (P = .68) in the Kaplan-Meier survival rates of ultrashort implants (97.6%) and short implants (95.2%). After adjusting for other covariates in a multivariate model, implant length was not associated with implant failure (P = .49). Conclusions: The survival of ultrashort (5- and 6-mm) implants was comparable to that of short (8-mm) implants. INT J ORAL MAXILLOFAC IMPLANTS 2012;27:644654.
Key words: dental implants, implant length, retrospective cohort study, short implants, single-tooth implants

Rating: NNNNN
During public lectures, I am often asked the question, why a Black History Month? I answer by reminding my listeners that blacks have a 400-year-long history in Canada - one that predates any other outside group except the French.
Indeed, I could make the argument that this makes Africans one of the founding peoples. The least governments could do is erect a monument to show some respect.
The rise of the Western hemisphere was premised on two factors: the appropriation of aboriginal lands and the working of that land by enslaved Africans. The slave trade and slavery produced untold wealth for Europe and European-derived societies.
The flip side of Europe's modernity and progress was Africa's underdevelopment. A corollary of this was the continued oppression of African-descended peoples in Africa and the West. That is why the case for reparations is pertinent.
We mark the first black presence in the territory we now call Canada (again, way before the British) with Mathieu Da Costa. Described as a "Portuguese African," Da Costa was an adventurer and explorer who worked as a translator and linguist for the French colonizer Sieur de Monts, as the French sought to establish a foothold in Acadia (Nova Scotia).
The literary evidence also suggests Da Costa served as a cultural broker between the French, Mic Mac and other East Coast natives. In all likelihood, he would have been present in Canada before 1604 to have learned aboriginal languages.
By the end of the 17th century, Africans had become a visible presence, mainly as enslaved workers, in the households and on the farms of colonists. Some of the men also worked in the fur trade.
By 1734, when a black woman, Marie-Joseph Angélique (also Portuguese) was hanged for allegedly setting fire to Montreal, there was no doubt that people of African descent had made their mark on Canada.
When Britain took Canada from France in 1760, the conquerors recognized the French colonists' right to hold slaves and provided for that in one of the many articles of capitulation. Slavery expanded under British rule until it was challenged by Governor Simcoe in Upper Canada (Ontario) in 1793 and Chief Justice Monk in Lower Canada (Quebec), also toward the end of the 18th century. In 1833, the institution was fully abolished.
With regards to Toronto, Africans were part of its founding and helped to bring it from a frontier settlement to a settled community. Four black men constructed Castle Frank and Davenport roads. Peter Long and his family, black loyalists, homesteaded in the Don Mills area as early as 1793.
In Toronto proper, black people, whether as free persons or enslaved workers, built roads, chopped down trees, constructed homes, worked in the homes of white settlers, minded their children and cooked their meals.
It would be remiss of me not to mention Peggy Pompadour and her son Jupiter, both enslaved and owned by former colonial administrator and one of Ontario's founding fathers Peter Russell. Russell decided to sell Peggy and son and advertised his intention in the York Gazette in February 1806. However, times were changing, and as the 18th century closed and a new one opened, black Torontonians established businesses such as barbering salons, restaurants, clothing shops and grocery stores, and the wealthier ones even employed white nannies, housekeepers and butlers.
After Confederation, Canada pursued a "white only' immigration policy that saw hundreds of thousands of Britons and other Europeans spilling into this country. People of colour were let in only under special circumstances.
The indigenous blacks who had lived in the country for centuries had the status of third-class citizens. At the same time, many groups of black people, including the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, waged a struggle for human rights and dignity, not only for themselves but for all Canadians. It was only in 1962 when Diefenbaker reversed the white-only policy that blacks and other people of colour were allowed into Canada as immigrants and settlers.
So how is all this knowledge of history going to help us with the future? Four hundred years of black history must mean something. How about a monument for starters (Parliament Hill, Queen's Park)? It would be nice to know that someone recognized the many centuries of free labour black people gave to this country, and it would foreground the issue of reparations.
Toronto may be the only G8 city where people of colour form a majority (51 per cent), but this does not mean full equality for all its citizens. The city, like the rest of Canada, is marked by economic apartheid as described by social scientist Grace-Edward Galabuzi. Black people as a group are increasingly living within economic Bantustans.
The media and other public fora have been instrumental in portraying the community as a criminal one. Despite the much-touted diversity, we are witnessing not only disparity, but also xenophobia.
So the issue right now is not one of "celebrating our diversity," but of promoting equity. If blacks, particularly our youth, do not have access and equity, a majority will remain in low-paying jobs. If we truly want to celebrate our multicultural heritage, then the vast wealth the country produces must find its way into the hands of all its peoples, not just the very few.
Let us think on those things during this Black History Month.
Afua Cooper, a poet and cultural commentator, holds a Ph.D in history and is the author of The Hanging Of Angélique: The Untold Story Of Canadian Slavery, And The Burning Of Old Montréal (HarperCollins, 2006).

As many as 20 children with brain cancer may have been accidentally exposed to the viruses that cause AIDS and hepatitis C during a gene therapy experiment at hospitals in Houston and Memphis, a Clinton administration official said tonight.
The Food and Drug Administration was notified last Friday about the possible problem by researchers at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, which had been running the experiment for the past two and a half to three years with scientists at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. The F.D.A. is investigating, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The children were given a gene therapy ''vector'' -- a corrective gene, encased in a weakened cold virus -- that may have been tainted. But whether they were exposed to the AIDS or hepatitis viruses remains unclear.
''The F.D.A. has a sample of the material, is testing it, and it may be a few days before we have any preliminary findings,'' the official said.
Earlier tests suggesting that the vector may have been contaminated could turn out to be false, the official said. Nonetheless, he added, ''This is a serious concern.''Continue reading the main story
He said the F.D.A. had taken ''immediate action'' but declined to be specific. Typically, the agency suspends experiments when safety problems emerge.
It was also unclear whether patients and their families were immediately informed. A report in Friday's issue of The Washington Post quoted researchers involved in the experiment as saying that they had learned of the possible problem in December, but did not begin informing patients and their families until after federal regulators were notified. In an interview tonight, the administration official said the institutions involved ''had been working to inform the patients.''
The therapy was to test a treatment for children with neuroblastoma, a form of brain cancer, and involved the use of a corrective gene encased in a weakened cold virus, adenovirus. That same virus was used in a gene therapy experiment that killed an 18-year-old patient, Jesse Gelsinger, at the University of Pennsylvania last September.
The death has prompted increased scrutiny of the therapy, a 10-year-old field in which scientists are trying to prevent, or treat, diseases by giving patients healthy genes to make up for deficient ones. Last month the F.D.A. halted such research at the University of Pennsylvania.
Also since the death, federal officials have learned that gene therapy researchers were routinely failing to follow government rules requiring them to report side effects to the National Institutes of Health. When the institutes' officials surveyed scientists using the adenovirus, they found that only 39 ''adverse events'' had been reported in more than 600 that should have been.Continue reading the main story

Hanson JK Medium Basic Front Bumper
The width of this midsize bumper extends to about the middle of the fender. This gives the bumper a sporty look with ample protection and approach angles for off road use and allows for maximum wheel clearance and good fender protection. It's handcrafted from 3/16" cold-rolled steel. Multiple angles are used in the construction for optimum approach and departure angles. The 2" dropped winch deck accommodates most winches and allows for better airflow to radiator and a lower center of gravity. The multiple angles and the dropped winch deck combined give the bumper superior strength. The unique placement and design of the 1" wide clevis tabs gives them unmatched strength allowing them to be pulled from any angle without fear of damage to bumper or tab, and do not interfere with approach and departure angles. Tab is drilled for a 7/8" pin. Bumper provides accommodation for factory driving or after market lights. The well-known value and quality of a Hanson product is exemplified in this handcrafted bumper. It comes in a black semi-gloss powder coat. NOTE: Fairlead Mount Plate, Fairlead, Winch, Off-Road Lights, Recovery Shackles and straps are NOT included with the bumper.
Shipping is available via Truck Freight only due to the size...starting from $125, depending on how close you are to Phoenix, AZ. There is a $105 residential surcharge if you have us ship it to a anywhere other than a zoned-business address. To avoid that fee, you can also have it left at the local FedEx Freight Depot (click for map) for you to pick up there.
INTERNATIONAL FREIGHT SHIPMENTS: Please e-mail us for special instructions for International customers!! The following DOES NOT APPLY to International Shipments, only Domestic.
Heads-up: All bumpers from us (and everywhere else) are, on average, running a solid 3-4 weeks out until they ship. I have Mike and Greg working as fast they can on filling the orders. What this means is that the sooner you get your order in, the closer to the front of the line you'll be in by the time you need it. Anyway, we're looking at ways to refine the manufacturing process, but if you need a bumper in less than 2 weeks, ARB is the only bumper I can think of that would be on the shelf, and also not NEARLY as strong or durable. EVERYONE in the industry is running this far out, or longer: I know because I called around, asking. -Kevin

Basic Supply List to get a Successful Daycare CenterPar computerkidsdaycare2 dans Accueil le 8 Août 2016 à 05:20
Preschool Alief
Creating a daycare center is a brilliant way to show your love of working together with children into a thriving career. Some essential equipment and supplies is required to begin a successful daycare. While a daycare business can be built over time, there are several items which you need to have straight away. If you have children coming when you open your doors, there are some essentials you will need for when they arrive.
Daycare Alief
Smoke detectors
Carbon monoxide detectors
Fire extinguishers
Flashlights or lanterns
Portable radio
Outlet plugs
Cabinet locks
First aid kits
daycare 77083
The first priority, specially when working with kids, ought to always be safety. Toddler development stages are vastly not the same as a preschooler's. Be sure, when selecting your toys and equipment, that you keep this in mind. Here's a basic set of the apparatus you will need for a daycare having children up to toddler age.
Your supply list would not be complete without TOYS. Toys and other educational materials are probably the most important items when starting a daycare. Children always need something to do during the day. Be sure to look for toys which can be suitable for time that you plan on having in your facility. It's also advisable to purchase items such as books and learning toys to help develop children mentally. Start by looking for toys and educational materials in the following categories:
Dramatic play
Gross motor
A considerable investment needs to be put into the furniture you choose for a daycare program. Some rudimentary furniture items needed:
High chairs
Booster seats
Rocking chairs
Small chairs
Nap mats
Step stools
Training Toilets
Children toddler age or younger will need a nap sooner or later throughout the day. For these children, you need to purchase nap mats or cots. It could be to your advantage to purchase more than you will need straight away. Through the use of cots as opposed to actual beds, you've got extra space for climbing equipment along with other toys. Cots should have removable sheets that are washed weekly plus they needs to be labeled with children's names and employed by the identical child for your school year.
Outdoor Equipment:
Weather permitting, your kids should be able to play outside and like the sunshine. Based on the area, a fenced-in playground is required for safety. The playground equipment does not need to be the best available on the market, the slightest bit, but ought to be safe and age appropriate. You will also need to make sure your trampoline safety is put over a soft surface for example rubber mulch or grass.

Benefits (HR-300)
HR-306 Social Security
The University shall make payroll deductions for FICA (Social Security and Medicare), and make appropriate FICA contributions, for eligible employees, following governing regulations. FICA and Medicare are federally mandated taxes withheld from employees' paychecks and a tax paid by the employer. Programs include funds for old age, survivors', disability, and medical insurance.
Determining Eligibility
All University employees participate in the Federal Social Security Program except: Extension employees having Civil Service Retirement, students enrolled in and regularly attending classes at the University of Missouri whose primary purpose in working is to further educational objectives, and nonresident alien individuals who qualify for exemption from the social security tax under section 3121(b)(19).
The department is responsible for determining the status of each of its employees and for initiating the necessary staff forms to establish individual employee participation status. If a change in student participation status will occur between a regular semester and a summer session or between a summer session and a regular semester, the department must process the necessary staff forms prior to the effective date of the change.
FICA taxes are deducted from eligible employee salaries not to exceed the taxable wage base. Employees who join the University will have taxes withheld at federally mandated rates without regard to the amount withheld in the calendar year by previous employers. Medicare taxes do not have a maximum, taxable wage base. An employee may claim a refund of excess deductions on his/her income tax return for that year.
Additional Information
As required by law, the University furnishes each employee with a Form W-2, which shows the amount of Social Security tax withheld, and the amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax.
Information regarding Social Security benefits and other aspects of the Social Security Program is available through the employee's local Social Security Administration Office.

To overcome prejudice, we can boldly speak against it and teach our children total intolerance for it. We can get to know one another; when we do so, the stereotypes that impede relationships will fall away. Finally, we can express regret to others for past prejudicial sins and ask God to forgive us and change our thinking.

Tula gear
Great gear, wouldnt hesitate to buy again...
Definitely a favorite
This top fits and supports me really well and is also very sexy. The tula, the lola, and the mirabelle are my absolute favorites
Wish the bust was bigger
I wish it had more bust coverage. I had to get a size bigger than I normally do so that it would cover my breasts. Other than that I like it a lot!
Love it. Stays tied. Favorite
Love it. Stays tied. Favorite color
Love it but wish there was more coverage
This top is really cute but just be aware that there isn't a lot of chest coverage. I'm pretty small framed with small C's and initially bought this top in a Small which was not enough coverage, so I exchanged it out for a Medium which fits much better but it's still pretty low coverage. I'll probably only wear this when I practice at home, just in case anything falls out haha. I bet this top would fit smaller chests better!
My favorite top of all time!!!
This top is why I first fell in love with Mika!! It holds everything in place no matter how sweaty or which way you stretch!!

High frequency digital signals need to be interconnected through passive interconnects that have low loss at the 5th harmonic. This means that to properly conduct quality rise times in a digital signal that has a primary component of 10 GHz, the contactor must have low loss at 50 GHz. Few, well marketed, contactors can actually perform well at these frequencies. As a result, the test engineer finds that he has a system that fails to properly demonstrate the capability of the DUT. Paricon has addressed this need by the introduction of the F15 platform which allows an easy upgrade to the PariPoser contact system.
Paricon is dedicated to the success of its customers through partnership in the providing of advanced interconnection solutions. This will be accomplished by developing a close working relationship with its customers throughout the product development cycle, from concept definition to reduction-to-practice. Success in this goal will be achieved when customers view us as their supplier of choice.

The Inland Waterways Association (IWA) is a
registered charity, founded 1946 and campaigns for the conservation,
use, maintenance, restoration and development of the inland waterways.
It has about 17,000 members whose interests include boating, towpath
walking, industrial archaeology, nature conservation and many
other activities associated with canals and navigable rivers.
The Inland Waterways Association is also concerned to promote
the use of inland waterways for their original purpose, the carriage
of freight. This response is submitted on behalf of the Association's
Council and committee members and concentrates on issues that
were specified in the inquiry notice dated 14 December 2000.
All ports, not just the major ports are vital
to the UK economy. Those ports located on inland waterways have
an important role to play.
Whilst competition between ports is inevitable
and should be encouraged, better co-operation especially between
ports situated on the same waterway, or estuary leading to the
waterway, could have increased benefits for the environment. The
maximum inland penetration of cargoes should be encouraged. Working
together such ports can be invaluable to the Government's Integrated
Transport Strategy.
The safety of operations and the training of
employees within all areas of a port is a most important aspect
of safety. The industry should co-operate fully so as to provide
first class training at the most economical costs.
The rail and waterway system transport links
to ports should be maintained and their use encouraged. Consideration
should be given to expansion of such links where possible and
no existing rail or waterway links should be eroded.
The involvement of the Regional Development
Agencies in planning guidance should be to encourage the use of
waterways and to protect cargo-handling wharves together with
potential sites for modal interchange of cargo.
The historic heritage should be preserved wherever
possible and uses found for the most important buildings or structures
within a port, unless that area is of strategic importance to
the future operation of the port.
Recreation, whether sport or informal, should
be allowed in such areas as it can be accommodated without hindrance
to the port operation. Where appropriate, the passage of pleasure
craft should be catered for within the ports operation policy.
The extension of Freight Facility Grants to
Ports must be carefully drafted and administered in order that
coastal ports do not take cargoes which could otherwise travel
further inland by waterway. Otherwise this could increase the
lorry miles in that locality.
The classification of Trans European Network
ports that are situated upon a waterway with an inland classification
should give that waterway Trans European Network status as well.
The Inland Waterways Association welcomes the
Government's announcement that it well set up an inland waterways
freight study group and will be pleased to support and assist
this study group to the best of its ability, through the Association's
Inland Shipping Group.
A copy of the Association's "UK Freight
WaterwaysA Blueprint for the Future", published in
1996, is attached for the committee's reference.

Sourcing Quality Editorial Content for Email Newsletters
Learn how to create engaging content for your email newsletter, how to identify quality content, and get creative with content types and sourcing options (with bonus printout spreadsheet).
Learn how to create engaging content for your email newsletter, how to identify quality content, and get creative with content types and sourcing options (with bonus printout spreadsheet).
I am a big fan of well-done email newsletters. Why? Because they are one of the best ways to build relationships via email and boost your email return on investment (ROI).
As I've mentioned in past columns, editorial email messages (read: email newsletters) generate very high open and click-through rates compared to other types of email messages. Done properly, with a mix of no more than 40 percent marketing content and at least 60 percent editorial content, they can be a huge driver of conversions and revenue.
The biggest challenge that I see my clients face is sourcing quality editorial content for email newsletters. Here is an exercise I use with my clients (there's a spreadsheet for you to print below); it's simple and it will help you create engaging content for your email newsletter.
First, let's talk about how to identify quality content. You're looking for information that:
A great piece of quality content meets all four of these criteria; if it doesn't meet these four criteria, you should work with it until it does or not use it. A quick word on the last item, "supports your business goals." This doesn't mean that it should be promotional, just that it is in line with what your end goal is. A business goal could be showcasing your knowledge of the needs of the industry or other things that build relationships with your prospects and clients.
Next, you need to get creative with content types and sourcing options; I think of this as a mix-and-match proposition. Here's a short list of options:
|Types of Content
|Sources of Content
Notice the many different types of content, or content presentations, I've listed. Making your email newsletter more than just a bunch of articles helps with engagement. There is also some content that lends itself better to certain presentations than to others. Be sure you include both passive and interactive content in your newsletter.
Also, don't think that every item has to be 500 words or more. I like to mix in quick quotes and statistics to add interest. Only the quote or the stat actually appears in the newsletter, although I always include attribution with a link back to the original source for people that want to learn more. This is a great way to repurpose third-party content in a limited way.
Where to get the content is another conundrum many of my clients face. While it's always nice to create content from scratch, don't overlook the value of repurposing.
If you've got a presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, or another social network, or if you have one or more corporate blogs, there's a huge repurposing opportunity here. Pulling in interesting posts or, even better, comments, is an easy way to get content for your newsletter and drive people back there to contribute to the discussion. You can do the same with third-party blogs, but I love using social to drive email subscriptions and then using email to drive people to engage with you socially.
OK, here's where the exercise comes in.
You'll want to print the image below, or recreate it. You'll need to set aside some time (30 minutes to an hour) to focus on this exercise without any distractions.
The easiest way to begin is to think in terms of content you can repurpose. From there, let your imagination wander to what you could create from scratch. You should be familiar with what's available to be repurposed from your own company and the broader industry, but if you're not it's OK to be vague and go back to the Internet later to get more specific.
Your goal should be to have at least one item for each content type – even better, to fill the page with 24 content item ideas (they don't all have to appear in the same issue of your newsletter), which will give you a good starting point to develop your next editorial calendar.
Give the exercise a try and let me know how it goes!
Until next time,

Home Again, and AGWPJA contest placing!
We are back from all of our traveling, getting ready for Christmas and unpacking, and catching up with our kitten, families, and friends. I'll be back in the office for "real" on Wednesday afternoon, but for now I just wanted to say Merry Christmas... and to share that this photo of beautiful Meeghan getting ready for her wedding placed in the AGWPJA - that's the Artistic Guild of the Wedding PhotoJournalist Association. I had never entered images in the Artistic Guild contest before so my mouth dropped open in surprise when I saw this! I didn't even remember which photos I had entered!
There is so much great work in these contests that it's an honor to place at all. Here are some quotes from the AGWPJA's website which I think fit my work pretty well - more so than just straight photojournalism (which isn't necessarily "pretty" enough):
"The Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association is a distinct division within the Wedding Photojournalist Association (WPJA). The [AG]WPJA focuses strictly on the artistic and "fine art" aspects of wedding photojournalism... [AG]WPJA members are international wedding photojournalists, who excel both in creating outstanding images through a documentary approach, and in the art of post-production processing of wedding photographs. In a nutshell, [AG]WPJA photographers take great candid pictures, enhance them using the technology available, and deliver museum-quality images from your wedding day."
I love it!
Have a lovely holiday and a great week!

Off to NYC
Devon and I had a lovely work/ vacation stay at the Villagio in Yountville last weekend, and tomorrow we are up way early to go OAK-JFK, all the way to NYC to shoot Corinne and Geoff's wedding! We'll be gone until Christmas Eve, then will celebrate the holiday with our families, and I'll be back with lots more photos and stories after the 26th.
Meanwhile, since I don't want to just leave you with photos of us (though there are always more to follow as I photograph us on our travels), here are some shots of lovely Baker Beach, and the Golden Gate Bridge, from several months ago.
Happy Holidays, and have a lovely weekend! Wish us luck on our pre-holiday travel madness...
This little guy would NOT stop digging - he was totally obsessed:
This staircase with people jogging up and down is on my list for a stock shoot - anyone feeling athletic? Let me know if you'd like to model for me.
This was back in October when I went to SF to photograph Amber and Philip's honeymoon photos. It was an absolutely amazing sunny fall day, and I'm looking out at the clouds today... hoping spring comes early!

Happy Anniversary To Us!
Devon and I are heading out to the Napa Valley to photograph an awesome surprise party (more on that later) in a bit, and we'll have the wonderful luxury of staying there for the rest of the weekend to celebrate TWO years of marriage! You hear and hear and hear, "where did the time go?!" but now that I'm seeing how quickly it really does fly... I'm scared, and grateful. It seems like so recently that we were married at SF City Hall in a wonderful, romantic, private ceremony.

I love you, Devon!

Alicia's "Trash the Dress" Session
Last weekend I was thrilled to photograph Alicia trashing her wedding dress - except it's not her real dress, and she's not married yet. She contacted me to do some pre-wedding Trash the Dress bridals with a wedding dress she got on ebay! I love it!
We went out to Sugarloaf Ridge Park off Highway 12 near Kenwood and Sonoma. I had never been before, so it was a fun exploration together. We were lucky enough to have a gorgeous, sunny crisp winter day, and we hiked down a dark, leafy trail to a small creek and waterfall. Alicia was amazingly game for all kinds of odd poses, including laying in a bit of mud, traversing a fallen tree, letting her dress drag in the waterfall, and even doing a backbend!
This shot was taken with a Vintage, 1920s 4x5" camera that I have, on Type 55 Polaroid film - so cool! This was one of the first shots I tried and that's when I knew we were in for a wonderful portrait session.
I mean, seriously, look at this gorgeous woman!
Although we obviously want to trash the dress (hence the name), when I do one of these shoots, that's not so much the goal - it's just that we went to collaborate on getting gorgeous bridal portraits without worrying about making her uncomfortable, dirty, or tearing the gown. I am still really careful to make sure the subject is comfortable, warm enough, having fun... but it's just amazing when I have a bride who's willing to do things like balance sideways on a stone wall in the winter.
Another 4x5 Polaroid shot that I adore:
One of my favorite images:
My kooky idea - since I couldn't make her cartwheel down a steep, slippery hiking path, why not try a backbend?
Alicia has absolutely gorgeous skin:
And loved lying in the mud! Anything for the shot! :)
Some of these remind me of the Cure song "A Forest":
Some of the aftermath (it got even dirtier after our steep hike back up):
Alicia, you made a fabulously gorgeous model for this shoot, and was so much fun to get to know and work with. Thank you so much!
PS Alicia wrote me:
"Wow you are quick! I triple puffy heart these :-) These are so cool, exactly the style I was looking for! They look way better than I thought they ever could...you are amazing!!! Thank you so much! I can't wait to see the rest but these are so great!!!! Thank you, thank you!! The waterfall ones are my favorites :-) (although the back bend is pretty funny :-)"

the Velvet Teen, the Moggs, more concert
A few weeks ago we went to a show where 4 out of 5 bands playing contained friends of ours! Normally I'm bored for at least half of a concert (short attention span?), but this particular night I couldn't even find time to dash away for a drink!
Here are some shots of Moggs, a rad husband-wife duo out of Petaluma:
I also took some photos of the Velvet Teen with their new lineup!
It was a fun, wintry night!

the official launch of www.jessamynharrisphoto.com!
I'm so excited to completely and officially launch jessamynharrisphoto.com! I've been working on this site for a long time and it's finally done... which means I can get back to shooting new photos for it!
This site represents my editorial/ lifestyle commercial work - the shoots I do for magazines, newspaper, record labels, my stock agency, and so on. I'm planning a big marketing push for this in 2008. I'm going to keep doing weddings and portraits, but want to keep my eye fresh and sharp by working on more collaborative and assignment-based shoots as well.
Let me know what you think!

Thanksgiving 2007
We spent a lovely Thanksgiving with my husband's family in Santa Cruz. His parents both live down there, separately, and his sister, my good friend Alyssa, and her boyfriend recently moved to Orange County... so it's tough to get everyone together often, and they (we) are a close family. So it was great to be together!
I love my mother in law - I am truly lucky. She puts a magic touch in every detail - look at the beautiful Thanksgiving dinner table, and the beautiful gift box (it was Brian's birthday):
She also just got a new kitty, little Izzy - who is teeny tiny, shy, and so cute!
Brian never had pets growing up so it was rad to see them bond:
I love this photo! The way she's bending over just cracks me up.
We realized that Toni (Dev's mom) doesn't have any photos of Brian and Alyssa so I remedied that right quick with this fun, impromptu photo sesh:
I love the way Brian's peering over his glasses - very cute!
And I didn't want to be left out of the photos with my beautiful sister in law!
(Yes, we're looking "tuff" on purpose.)
Here's Devon with his sister and dad:
And Devon's mom with the rest of us!:
You may ask, "where is the photo of Jessamyn and Devon?". I asked that too, but Devon was helping cook while I just lazed around, so he had no more time to pose with me! Thanks honey!
One more shots of the birthday boy's awesome kicks (he had at least 4 pairs in the trunk of the car, and I think I saw him wear at least 3 of them in less than 24 hours!):
What an amazing family to be a part of.

text: Hi all, I bought the WRT54G v2.2 and installed DD-WRT primarily to control QOS better so that I can use voip/skype without having to stop/start other programs on my networked computers, but it's not working as well as I'd heard others report it. My system is as follows: Sipura spa2000 on port 1 Mac G4 on port 2, which is my server and generally used for backups, some torrents, music and movie library etc. Mac powerbook, normally wired to port 3, but occasionally wireless (802.11b) Mac powerbook, wireless (802.11g) My DSL connection is 512Mb I've set the QOS settings as below Uplink kbps 256 Dnlink kbps 440 Services Priority SIP and skype as Premium HTTP and POP3 as Express bittorrent and edonkey as Bulk Haven't set netmask or Mac priority Port 1 (sipura) premium Ports 2,3,4 standard. Questions: Should I set the sipura mac address in the mac priority as well as in the port priority and services priority? I find that with downloads running, I still get broken voip conversations. Should this setup give the sipura priority over everything else? Should web browsing take priority over the downloads in this setup? Any other suggestions on this gratefully received as I'm just starting to learn about QOS. Cheers, Justin.

'La Cumbia del Amor' ("The Cumbia of Love" – Cumbia) Song by: Fernando Vargas
Choreography: Carlos Osorio of Cumbia Spirit School of Dance.
This song & dance represents the core of the Cumbia, celebrating the love, patience & playfulness of courtship between the African male and the most proud native female. The candles represent the guiding light of the Spirit which guide us with hope and joy. Guepa/Guepaje/Wepa are shouts of joy in our culture.
'Alma Llanera' ("Soul of the Plains" – Joropo) Song by Juan Vicente Torrealba
Choreography: Carlos Osorio of Cumbia Spirit School of Dance.
Joropo means: fiesta (dance party) in the plains of the Eastern part of Colombia. Its origen is from Spanish descent that left us with the costumes and the music. Colorful skirts and fast music, females dance playfully. Moves initiated by males with the skill of horse riders and adventurous people of the plains. Joropo is from the Arabic language "Xorop" (jarabe).
The instruments are the harp, cuatro (the fourth -small size guitar) y maracas (shakers), plus the singing.
The dance includes the counter-plotting (contrapunteos) in its various forms which is an essential part of joropo. There are two contrapunteos: the one that takes place between the instruments and voice, or between two or more singers from improvisation of verses and songs. This is one of the special features of this genre.

My stay at Plaza Mar was just wonderful. No problemas. Everything was just great from check-in to check-out. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful in every way. The maid service was great and kept the room in tip-top shape. My unit was in great shape, clean and filled with everything I needed for the week. Plaza Mar's location is perfect, close to everything you need for a wonderful PV vacation. You are close to the beach and malecon. The area has just fantastic restaurants, galleries and shops. You are within easy walking distance of everything and if you cannot walk, taxis are just down at the end of the park.
I have stayed at Plaza Mar a number of years now and have had a wonderful stay each time. I will be back.
I want to thank Jeff Musto and the staff at Plaza Mar for another excellent week in PV.

If you are using a flight search engine to find an airfare, the following "rules of thumb" may help you identify the cheapest flights:
- Early morning/late night flights will often cost you less (don't exclude these from your search).
- Enter dates for cheap days of the week. Tuesdays and Wednesdays tend to be cheapest. I've also been advised that Saturdays can be cheap.
- Be flexible with your airports, it may be cheaper to fly from a neighbouring airport, rather than your first choice. Ideally, the site you use should at least have the option to include all airports for a major city, such as New York, in your search.
- Carrier pricing policy usually means that booking early is cheaper than booking late. It is now very difficult to get a late booking bargain on a scheduled flight.
- However, if you are flexible on where and when you travel, you can still bag a bargain booking late. More in my next post.

(See pics below)
Picture this: a 1970 Dodge Challenger crumbling into bits of rust, a '67 GTO clad in intertwined vines and weeds, thick tree trunks growing through a 1937 Chrysler's windshield. It's the kind of image that makes you want to shell out your retirement money so you can take the cars home and restore them to their former glory.
This is exactly what you'll find in Old Car City. But instead of three classic cars fighting for your attention in all their abandoned splendour, there are 4,000.
Over 80 years of letting cars wither
Located in a forest in north Georgia, 32 acres of land is home to Walter Dean Lewis' Old Car City. A venture that started in 1931, more than 4,000 vintage cars are currently in the junkyard museum.
Formerly a general store that Lewis' parents put up, their family decided to additionally sell auto parts and put in a scrapyard business. By the time his folks quit the junk business, Dean took over. At that point, several '40s cars were still lazing around in the forest. This collection expanded so much with Dean's subsequent car purchases from auctions and recycling yards.
A store-turned-exhibit like no other
Eventually, Dean realised that turning the selling business into a museum would be more profitable. The whole process of collecting vintage cars felt more like an art project than an operational salvage yard, anyway. And with that, Old Car City was born.
Charging $15 for regular visitors and $25 for visiting photographers, the automotive adventure land is surely hard to miss for car lovers and photographers. With a vast array of car brands and models pleasingly intermingled with the rich soil and lush greenery, one is sure to find a car or two that will strike his inner car buff chords.
Of course, you may feel disappointed and melancholic over all the wasted metal machinery. But for the most part, the scenery is rather peaceful and inspiring.
A vintage car heaven in White, Georgia
So if you find yourself in wandering in Georgia, don't miss the chance to see Old Car City for yourself. Just don't forget to come in comfy walking shoes and carry some bug spray. Have with you lots of storage space in your camera, too.

Notice of postponement of preliminary antidumping duty determination in antidumping duty investigation.
September 27, 2001.Start Further Info
Mark Ross or Minoo Hatten, AD/CVD Enforcement 3, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone; (202) 482-4794 or (202) 482-1690, respectively.End Further Info
The Department of Commerce is postponing the preliminary determination of the antidumping duty investigation on greenhouse tomatoes from Canada from September 24, 2001, until October 1, 2001. This postponement is made pursuant to section 733(c)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act.End Preamble Start Supplemental Information
The Applicable Statute and Regulations
Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute are references to the provisions effective January 1, 1995, the effective date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act. In addition, unless otherwise indicated, all citations to Department of Commerce's (the Department's) Start Printed Page 49345regulations are to 19 CFR Part 351 (2000).
On April 17, 2001, the Department initiated an antidumping duty investigation on greenhouse tomatoes from Canada covering producers and exporters of the subject merchandise to the United States during the period January 1, 2000, through December 31, 2000. See Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigation: Greenhouse Tomatoes From Canada, 66 FR 20630 (April 24, 2001). The notice stated that, unless postponed, the Department would issue its preliminary determination no later than 140 days after the date of the initiation. On August 21, 2001, the Department published a partial extension of the time limit for the preliminary results of this investigation based on a timely request by the petitioner. See Antidumping Duty Investigation Covering Greenhouse Tomatoes from Canada: Notice of Postponement of Preliminary Determination, 66 FR 43838 (August 21, 2001).
Postponement of Preliminary Determination
Currently, the preliminary determination is due no later than September 24, 2001. However, pursuant to section 733(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we have determined that this investigation is "extraordinarily complicated" and are therefore postponing the preliminary determination by seven days to October 1, 2001.
Under section 733(c)(1)(B) of the Act, the Department can extend the period for reaching a preliminary determination until not later than the 190th day after the date on which the administering authority initiates an investigation if:
(B) The administering authority concludes that the parties concerned are cooperating and determines that—
(i) the case is extraordinarily complicated by reason of—
(I) the number and complexity of the transactions to be investigated or adjustments to be considered,
(II) the novelty of the issues presented; or
(III) the number of firms whose activities must be investigated; and
(ii) additional time is necessary to make the preliminary determination.
The parties concerned are cooperating in this investigation. Additional time is necessary, however, to complete the preliminary determination due to the number of firms whose activities must be investigated. Specifically, there are over 100 Canadian producers/exporters that shipped fresh or chilled tomatoes to the United States during the period of investigation, and most of these producers/exporters ship greenhouse tomatoes. Since it was not practicable to examine all known producers/exporters of subject merchandise, in accordance with section 777A(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.204(c)(2), we chose to investigate producers and exporters accounting for the largest volume of the subject merchandise that can reasonably be examined. See the "Selection of Respondents" memorandum dated May 15, 2001, from Laurie Parkhill, Director, Office 3, to Richard W. Moreland, Deputy Assistant Secretary, Group I. Although this limited our examination to five producers/exporters of subject merchandise, several of these respondents had over a dozen suppliers that we needed to evaluate for cost reporting. After identifying the appropriate companies for cost reporting and issuing questionnaires to these companies, we discovered that two of them were resellers of greenhouse tomatoes, not growers. Therefore, we had to request cost-of-production data from the growers that supplied these resellers. After selecting five producers/exporters for reporting sales data and eight growers for reporting cost-of-production data, we discovered several affiliations among these companies that resulted in revisions to our requests for information. Investigating the activities of this large number of companies, and considering the complex sales, cost, and affiliation issues associated with them, has significantly delayed our issuance of requests for information. In addition, this has delayed our ability to review and analyze this information for purposes of calculating dumping margins. As such, we determine that additional time is necessary to complete the preliminary determination in this investigation.
Further, certain members of the Department's team in this investigation were unable to return to the United States from abroad as scheduled during the week of September 10, 2001, due to the closure of the U.S. air system. Because these individuals were knowledgeable about the issues and facts in this investigation and had the responsibility to prepare the preliminary calculations, their delayed return to the United States has affected the Department's ability further to prepare an accurate preliminary determination for this investigation by September 24, 2001.
Therefore, pursuant to section 733(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we are postponing the preliminary determination in this investigation until October 1, 2001. This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f).Start Signature
Dated: September 20, 2001.

Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.

After using her Best Actress win at the Oscars as a platform to call for more movies about women ("the world is round, people"), Cate Blanchett recently spoke out again on behalf of her fellow female thespians.
Often I find with female-lead films, that the budgets are smaller and the resulting box office is extraordinary," she said. "But it would be great if there were more films led by women that had that initial investment, because people want to see stories with women at the center.
Our ticket-sale analyses have shown that movies with a female protagonist earned 20% more on average than movies with a male protagonist. And, the number crunchers at 538 have also proven that films that pass the Bechdel test are more profitable.
Blanchett will be presented with Women in Film's Crystal Award for Excellence in Film on June 11.

Postdoctoral Research
University of California San Diego
Engineering methods provide systematic and quantitative assessments which can revolutionize current clinical protocols (which have mostly been developed empirically) towards patient care. Treatment design, efficacy prediction, and medical device setting could all be carefully derived using computational modeling or experimental testing, with zero risk to the patient. However, a fluid integration of clinical interpretation and engineering investigation is required to achieve this goal.
This talk will present several aspects of combined clinical, experimental, and computational approaches towards cardiovascular medicine. I will present the current state-of-the-art in integrating 3 types of engineering tools: 1) Systemic physiology models, 2) Multi-scale CFD modeling, and 3) Benchtop experimental techniques, for investigating cardiovascular systems and medical devices. First, I will present a sophisticated modeling protocol which captures exercise physiology in single-ventricle patients to provide a platform for investigating related pathophysiologies and forming hypotheses to address clinical questions. Second, the use of multi-scale modeling to investigate vascular surgical options demonstrates a potential protocol for the inclusion of simulation results in surgical decision-making. Third, physiologically realistic in-vitro experimentations provide validation support for computational models, as well as platforms for direct evaluation of medical devices. I will present a unique workflow to effectively integrate these engineering tools, the potentials of their clinical translations and utilities, and how they will likely impact the future of cardiovascular diagnostics and treatment planning, as well as medical device design and testing.
Ethan Kung is currently a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California San Diego in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering department, and funded by an American Heart Association postdoctoral fellowship award. He received his Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Queen's University (Ontario, Canada) in 2003, and MS and PhD in Bioengineering from Stanford University in 2006 and 2010, respectively. He has a breath of expertise ranging from cardiovascular physiology, CFD modeling, medical imaging, to in-vitro experimentations.
