CommitteeLA Director David Cornell Nominated for Emmy
Ask anyone who is familiar with David Cornell's expansive body of work and they will tell you it is vivid down to its most minute details. Cornell has won countless prestigious awards, including Commercial Director of the year, the DGA's highest honor for commercial directors. He is a visionary whose accomplishments precede him, and whose depth of experience and admiration for the fine art of storytelling continues to evolve. It is a testament to the timelessness of his art that Cornell was most recently nominated for an Emmy.
"For me, those are the the kinds of commercials I love doing," says the CommitteeLA director in reference to his Emmy-nominated work for the Royal Bank of Canada. "And that kind of commercial is the kind I like: storytelling, cinematic, it's very rare these days."
A commercial director for over 30 years after moving to the U.S. from South Africa, Cornell has witnessed the stylistic and cinematic shift in commercials as society has evolved. He points to the storytelling opportunities born as a result of the Internet and YouTube as the kind of work he is excited to pursue with CommitteeLA.
"I think that the opportunity of doing longer-form pieces, and then extracting a 60-second or 30-second piece from it, gives commercial makers fantastic opportunities to tell more feature-like stories. That aspect really interests me," says Cornell.
Given his expansive and impressive career in directing, it may come as a surprise that Cornell never set out to be a director.
"I was working as an art director for an agency in South Africa. I got my first job by going to London for a week and came back as a producer. Then I worked with many South African directors, but very soon I realized I wanted to be them. I just wanted to be the guy looking through the camera. To this day I like to operate my own camera," says Cornell.
Trained as an architect before stepping into a role as creative director, once Cornell fell in love with directing he was hooked. Self-taught in the craft after producing his first spot, Cornell swiftly moved into the director's chair himself, moving to the U.S. and launching a successful career.
Splitting his time between his home on the Venice beach canals and his farm in Puglia, Italy, art fills Cornell's daily life year-round: he counts golf, sculpting, harvesting crops, and making wine and olive oil on his farm among his hobbies when not directing. Cornell is also actively involved in the DGA community, moderating its Commercial Director Symposium for the third year in a row in 2016. "It's inspirational looking at their work," says Cornell of the DGA's directors. "The audience generally enjoys that I'm asking questions as a director, and the work is normally so beautiful. It's always been very interesting for me to do, and also sort of effortless because I am interested in their work and I'm particularly interested in hearing how other directors get the job done."

Question about Canon Rebel XT / EOS 350D Digital Camera
Can anyone help, with a solution. The external flash works quite well, but I did not spend 800 on a set up to have it mal-function...the internal flash does nothing, i can manually open the flash, however, it still will not fire
Posted by lora71730 on
i have the same problem,flash does not pop out
Same problem w/ xti 1 yr old. Solution #1 had no effect
Same problem, This seems to be an issue with the xti. Flash works fine other than i have to manually get it to pop up by pulling it slightly then pressing the flash button. It appears to be a manufacturing issue as the flash seems like it may not be seated properly in its closed position pushing or angled slightly to the left when taking picture. Will eventually send the camera back to canon for repair. Spent to much money to have a broken product.
the internal flash pops up but will not fire
same thing. 1 year old.
I found the answer and fixed my flash. Look on http://photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00ODWf
This will describe how, if you have been using a speedlite alot, than the little tab under the shutter release side of the hot shoe can get bent down thus constantly pressing down (toward the bottom of the camera) the small button which deactivates the pop-up flash even when the speedlite is not attached. Just bend the tab up a little with a jewler's screwdriver, turn the camera off and on and voila!! Fixed!!! Dan describes pushing the tab down, but on the xti, the tab needs to be bent up to release the flash deactivation switch and fix the problem. Thanks to Dan D on photonet for saving me a service call.

I removed my flash plate and flash shoe by following these instructions: http://www.conraderb.com/flashrepair/
They're for a 20D, but they work for the XTi as well. There's a little black button that sticks up on the right-hand side; mine must have been stuck down, which is the indicator that you have an external flash on. I cleaned it up, put the flash shoe and plate back on, and my built-in flash works again!
Posted on Jun 18, 2008
Just grab the top with your thumb and finger on the other side and pull it up. you may have to turn off the camera before shooting to celar any erro message.
dip a Q-tip in alcohol and clean the sliding parts of the flash. this might clearn away from gunk that made it stick.
if flash is out but doesn't fire, try it in all modes....

Open Thread: Talk About Food & Booze Right Here, Whenever You So Feel Like It
Here's your place to come talk about food & booze whenever you feel like it.
Hangovers are the worst part of drinking, and people who enjoy alcohol are always looking for ways to combat them. Everyone seems to have a "remedy" that doesn't quite work. (I usually just try to sleep through mine.)
Oddly, my hangovers aren't as bad as they used to be. I get them, but they're mild, they're usually gone by around 1 p.m., and, while I'm not sure why they have started to decline in severity, I suspect it has something to do with my body deciding to just give up and adjust to the lifestyle it is subjected to.
While my hangovers have lessened in severity, I'd still like to eradicate them completely, or at least lessen them even further. So, when the nice people at Never Too Hungover ($23.99 for a pack of six on Amazon) offered me a free sample of their product, I was like "Yes, OK, sure."
The shot is a "healthy vitamin blend" with no sugar or caffeine. For optimum results, you should take Never Too Hungover before or during drinking. One vial is supposed to take care of the effects of seven drinks, and it is recommended that you do not exceed three vials in a 24 hour period.
I planned to test the product on a Friday evening that I knew would feature a good bit of alcohol. I had dinner plans at the Nodoguro, and planned to do the drink pairing, because one should always do the drink pairing.
I grabbed a little bottle of Never Too Hungover and opened it. It fizzed slightly, and I immediately noticed the smell of B vitamins, which made sense, because B vitamins are supposed to be good for this kind of thing. The liquid inside the little bottle was green and super sweet, thanks to a bit of food coloring and sucralose. I did not enjoy drinking it, but it was by no means the worst shot I've ever done. (I'm very weird about any liquid that tastes even slightly medicinal. I seriously cannot take liquid medicine without gagging and have to have everything in pill form.)
Maybe my childlike naïveté is to blame, but I was cautiously excited about this product. The reviews on Amazon are very good, so I was pumped to put the stuff through a Typical Friday Night with Claire. Here is how it went down:
The press release had said that one bottle could tackle up to seven drinks, so I had seven. (Actually, this was not intentional; it just worked out that way.) I also had my usual amount of water, a.k.a. "some, but probably not enough."
When I awoke on Saturday morning, I was hungover the usual amount, maybe slightly less than I deserved, but definitely hungover. I stayed in bed for a long time, disappointed that I had not found a magical antidote that would allow me to never feel the ill-effects of my stupid lifestyle. I was also starving.
I went and got a bowl of ramen with a soft-cooked egg and a couple of Diet Cokes. After that, I didn't really feel hungover anymore. Though I am used to fairly short hangovers, this one seemed even shorter, though I definitely cannot claim that I was "never too hungover" because I honestly felt terrible when I woke up that morning. Oh well.
I will say this: Though it's boring, it would seem that the best way to not get hungover is still "don't drink so much, asshole."

Yeah! My Raspberry Pi in "the cloud" is online. It is in fact a Colocated Pi running in the Datacenter of PCextreme in the Netherlands.
Where else can you get a 100 Mbit uplink, 500 GB bandwidth, power and the ability to boast about it to your friends for free?
This is a very generous offer by these guys and I accepted it in a heartbeat. Due to popularity I had to wait a bit longer, but it is finally online. What am I going to do with it?
First of all it is going to be an OpenVPN server, to be able to make safe connections from public WiFi to the Net. Second, probably a web-service, but that is not decided yet. For me it always good to have a shell somewhere on the web. This is always handy for troubleshooting purposes.

EcoBird® 4.0 is safely applied with mechanical fogging equipment that deploys a light fog or haze.
Irvine, CA (PRWEB) April 16, 2015
Bird B Gone, the leader in bird control products for commercial, industrial and residential applications is now the exclusive distributor for EcoBird® 4.0, a non-hazardous indoor/outdoor bird repellent.
EcoBird® 4.0 effectively removes birds from a wide variety of indoor and outdoor environments. It is recommended for dispersing pest birds in airport hangers, warehouses, semi-enclosed docks, grain storage, parking and manufacturing facilities, power plants and factories, golf courses, parks, lawns, crops, trees, shrubs and landfills.
Formulated from food-grade materials, EcoBird® 4.0's active ingredient irritates a bird's mucous membranes. Birds find the sensation unpleasant and will avoid the treated area. EPA approved and safe for both indoor and outdoor applications, EcoBird® 4.0's temporary effect will not harm birds, pets or people. The solution is ideal for removing a broad spectrum of birds—including geese, pigeons, grackles, starlings, doves, blackbirds, gulls, swallows and water fowl.
EcoBird® 4.0 is safely applied with mechanical fogging equipment that deploys a light fog or haze. The chemical should be directed toward birds and used at a reasonable distance from structures or objects to allow for complete dissipation of the product. For indoor fogging, the chemical can be applied undiluted at no more than one fluid ounce per 10,000 cubic ft. For outdoor fogging, the chemical can be applied undiluted at 6 to 8 fluid ounce per acre. For outdoor non-fogging (such as landfills, and non-fish bearing bodies of water), EcoBird® 4.0 can be applied undiluted at 2.5 gallons per acre (8 lbs. per acre).
Bird B Gone is the world's largest manufacturer and distributor of bird control products, providing effective and humane solutions to a bird-free environment. The company provides advice, training and installation services for those who need help with these and other bird control measures. For help in choosing the right bird netting hardware for any job, call the experts at (800) 392-6915.

Market data provider Nanex of Winnetka, Ill., says Waddell & Reed was not the driving force behind the May 6 Flash Crash.
It was high-frequency traders who filled the role of "a few 8th graders" crashing a first-grade game of dodgeball, Nanex said in an Oct. 8 press release.
In September, Nanex said the sale of $125 million worth of Chicago Mercantile Exchange S&P 500 stock index e-mini futures contracts at 2:42 p.m. was followed 25 microseconds later by the sale of more than $100 million worth of exchange-traded funds. The combination, which Nanex indicated was coordinated, appears to have triggered the sell-off.
In addition, Nanex said that about 400 microseconds before the S&P 500 stock index futures contracts were sold, quote traffic for all New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Arca, and Nasdaq stocks surged to saturation levels within 75 microseconds, said Nanex, a firm that Reuters credited with coining the phrase "quote stuffing."
But Joe Mecane, executive vice president of NYSE Euronext, said Tuesday after a meeting of the Capital Markets Consortium in New York, that "quote stuffing" is not really possible. Even if a firm sends hundreds or thousands of orders against a quote, there is only one quote. No stuffing can occur, he said.
"Nanex has zero credibility with Nasadaq,'' said Brian Hyndman, senior vice president of Transaction Services at Nasdaq OMX Group. "There is zero evidence of quote stuffing.'' Instead, he said, there was plenty of "quote withdrawal" going on on May 6, as prices fell.
The exchange executives said the difference of 25 milliseconds between the sale of the e-minis and the sale of the exchange-traded funds was logical, could be expected and can easily be explained by the speed at which transactions, analysis and new orders take place on all-electronic markets.
For instance, Spread Networks on Thursday is expected to announce that it is turning live a path between New York and Chicago that achieves round-trip times for electronic messages of 16 milliseconds. That leaves plenty of time for a millisecond or two of analysis of a result and several milliseconds for placement of new, responding actions, panelists in a discussion of "Did Algos Go Wild?" on May 6 said.
For its part, Nanex said, "when the 8th graders got the ball, everyone cleared the deck out of panic/fear.
It wasn't Waddell trades, in fact, that occurred at the time of the stock pricing crash, the company said: "[Waddell's trades did] not occur near the ignition point [and were] practically absent during the torrential sell-off [and were, in fact, programmed] for "a well-behaved sell program."
Dave Cummings, head of high-frequency trader Tradebot Systems, also challenged the Nanex report, saying that his company actually curbed its trading on May 6 to avoid the selloff.

SALE Hockey Club will have four teams competing in East Gippsland grand finals on Saturday at Swan Reach.
Joining its open, under 18s and under 13s teams on grand final day, the Sale women's team defeated reigning premier Swan Reach 4-2 in the preliminary final.
In its fifth consecutive women's grand final, Sale will face Maffra for the premiership. The teams were only separated by a goal difference of one after the home-and-away season.
In the preliminary final at Maffra last Saturday, a strong performance across the field ensured Sale maintained possession for extended periods of the match and opened the scoring through a Julieanne Nicholls goal midway through the first half.
Olivia Hooper levelled the scores late in the half through after converting a short corner rebound.
Sale put its nose in front after the half-time whistle before the goal was over-turned.
With scores locked at 1-1 at the break, a determined Swan Reach put Sale under pressure for the opening five minutes of the half.
Sale worked its way back into the match and created multiple chances upfront.
A short corner conversion by Sarah Boag, followed by her converting a field goal when Swan Reach had a lapse in concentration put it out to a 3-1 lead.
Sarah Grixti put Swan Reach back in the match late in the match, followed by goal to Sale by Andie Christie to seal the victory.
Sale's three other grand finalists qualified after winning major semi- finals a fortnight ago.
With 15 wins from as many matches this season, Sale will play Swan Reach in the open grand final.
Sale will take on Nagle in the under 18s and 13s.
Sale entered the finals in top spot on both ladders.
Maffra will enter the under 15s grand final against Nagle as favourite. However, the only blemish for Maffra's season was a 3-3 draw with Nagle.
EGHA grand final
Saturday at Swan Reach:
Open: Sale v Swan Reach, 2.30pm.
Women's: Maffra v Sale, 1pm.
Under 18s: Sale v Nagle, 11.40am.
Under 15s: Maffra v Nagle, 10.20am.

The Nobel Prize-winning liberal icon who also happened to invent the internet, inspired the novel "Love Story" and was the last sore-loser Democratic candidate for president, popularized the term "inconvenient truth."
Here's one of those truths for the Herald-Leader: A simple look at the election results map you published ought to be revealing. The blue dot that represents Fayette County is an aberration in a sea of red neighboring counties. Yet you cling to a policy that leads to editions filled with gloom and hate.
I was no cheerleader for Donald Trump and I readily admit his faults, but the other "inconvenient truth" for those in the streets chanting "he's not my president" — well, he is.
One of the strengths of our political system is that we respect the outcome of elections and change leadership peacefully. This newspaper could do everyone a favor by making an effort to understand the broader population you serve. Continuing to pander to the liberal elite in Lexington will only exacerbate societal problems and likely cost you readership.
Like it or not, we face four years of President Trump. We should judge him on his performance in office, not on his boorish past or campaign rhetoric.

The Alliance Party continues to try to maximise the opportunity provided by their appointed role in the latest manufactured "crisis". From the BBC report
First and deputy first ministers Peter Robinson and Martin McGuinness had asked MLAs to put forward potential candidates for the post by next Friday. But in a leaked letter, Alliance says there must first be agreement on a policy programme for the justice post. It also wants real progress on a community relations strategy.

Being regularly exposed to high levels of any dust, including paper and tissue dust, in a workplace can affect the respiratory system and cause your workers to become ill. Employers need to ensure they protect their workers who may be affected.
Intervening with machinery is still one of the biggest causes of injury in paper industries. To prevent people being injured companies need to ensure they have procedures in place BEFORE intervention is needed to make sure employees are not injured. This will include providing adequate lock-off equipment and procedures, training and supervision to make sure it is being carried out correctly. Any procedures should be identified as part of a risk assessment process.
PABIAC stands for the Paper and Board Industry Advisory Committee. In 2012 PABIAC launched their new 3 year strategy to try and improve standards in the paper industry. The pledge is a way in which individual companies can demonstrate their commitment to the PABIAC strategy. Companies who choose to sign the pledge identify through an action plan how they will contribute to the strategy through improving and raising standards in their own businesses.

In 1992, the end of the Decade of Persons with Disabilities ( 1983-1992), the General Assembly proclaimed the December 3 the International Day of Disabled Persons (International Day of Persons with Disabilities).
Said decade has been a period of raising awareness and taking action to improve the situation of persons with disabilities and to provide them equal opportunities.
Later, the UN General Assembly urged member states to highlight the observance of the Day, with a view to further integration into society of persons with disabilities.
Conducting December 3 International Day of Disabled Persons aims to draw attention to the problems of persons with disabilities and protection of their dignity, rights and well-being, to draw public attention to the benefits it receives from the participation of people with disabilities in the political, social, economic and cultural life.
The purposes for which this day was proclaimed — the full and equal respect for human rights and the participation of disabled people in society. These goals were set in the World Programme of Action concerning Disabled Persons, adopted by the General Assembly in 1982.
Recall that The International Day for the rights of the disabled celebrated annually May 5.

1) Is it possible to buy Adderall online for cheap?
Adderall is typically expensive as it is the brand. Online pharmacies are a good way to buy Adderall for cheap as there are different discounts available. Order from the same place and you may even get loyalty discounts. Compare the online drugstores so that you can get the best offers on Adderall. The prices listed are significantly lesser than what you would pay at a brick-and-mortar drugstore as online pharmacies do not have any store maintenance or other overhead expenses.
2) Is online pharmacy Adderall authentic?
A trusted Adderall online pharmacy sources the medication directly from the manufacturer, which is one of the reasons why you can get Adderall online cheaply. Since there is direct supply, the quality
of the Adderall pills received will be genuine. Choosing the verified online pharmacy will ensure that you get only authentic Adderall.
3) Can I buy Adderall without a prescription?
A prescription is recommended when buying Adderall online as that is safer to use the drug with the correct dosage information. You can choose to get Adderall without prescription by instead getting the online prescription for Adderall. Some of the best internet pharmacies offer consultation with an online doctor who is licensed to provide the prescription, using which you can place the order online. This service is usually free and you would not incur any charges for using it.
4) Will it be safe to buy Adderall online?
It is safe to buy Adderall online as long as you use a genuine online pharmacy. Take a few basic precautions and do a thorough research on the internet drugstore that you have chosen. Read up on other users' reviews and feedback. Go to a place that asks for the prescription before filling the order, provides detailed drug information, etc. There are some online pharmacies that operate in a spurious manner and it is important that you weed them out.
5) How soon will I receive my order?
This depends on the type of shipping service chosen. Standard airmail service typically takes seven to fifteen business days. The Adderall express delivery options help you to receive the drug quickly within three to four business days, but this service usually comes at an extra fee. The delivery speed also depends on your location and the fastest access that the online pharmacy has to that area.
6) How much Adderall can I buy online?
You can buy as much Adderall as required from the online pharmacy. There is usually no limit. In fact, if you buy the drug in bulk you can get bigger discounts and it will help to save a lot of money.
7) How quickly can I reorder Adderall?
Anytime you are about to run out of Adderall you can place the order through the same online pharmacy in a very fast manner. The prescription information would be already stored and you just have to repeat the order. Refilling the Adderall prescription is easy indeed and you may even get additional discounts. If you need the medication immediately, check with the online pharmacy if they can accommodate your request for overnight delivery and they might oblige.

My name is Alan Wagner. I was born in Puerto Rico and have lived here my entire life. I have been interested in physics since I was a small child. I have always wanted to know how the universe works and why it works the way that it does. I have tried to answer these questions by taking the most advanced physics courses offered at my school and by reading physics books whenever I have the chance. I am looking forward to continuing my education at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where I plan to double major in Physics and Aeronautical Engineering. My other interests include sports and nature. I am a tennis player, but also enjoy running, swimming, and kickboxing. I spend a lot of time exploring the natural beauty of Puerto Rico. This island has a wide variety of ecosystems, ranging from beaches to deserts to rainforests.

It's the first day of Fall! I cannot contain my excitement. Basically, like everyone else, it's my favorite time of year. Except I have missed out on it for the last four years because we've been in Florida. I'm stoked for a proper visit to the pumpkin patch and wearing warm cozy clothes. It really is the best.
Another favorite of mine is Fall crafts. Last year, Addie and I made a few that I shared here. This year is no different. Today, I'm sharing how we make our own fun puzzles. This is something I've been doing for a long time. Puzzles are one of Addie's favorite things and Piper is getting into them now too. So in a pinch, with a little time and patience, these are great to have around.
Today's puzzle is Fall appropriate, as it is a cute little pumpkin! I'm also working on a candy corn and witches hat puzzle that are a little more intricate than this one.
What you'll need:
- Card stock
- Glue
- Scissors
- Decorative paper (or draw your own picture. Addie loves to do it this way)
- Printer
First, You need to decide on what kind of puzzle this is going to be. For this post, we will just focus on the pumpkin. Go online and find a pumpkin template that you like (or freehand a pumpkin). Save that and also search for a puzzle template. Print those off. Cut out the shape of the pumpkin. Set the puzzle template to the side.
Next, glue the decorative paper to the cardstock. (I know this seems excessive, but you really need the card stock to make the puzzle sturdy) Then, glue these to the puzzle template.
*Pro Tip: make sure you are gluing these to the back of the puzzle template. You need the printed side so you can see where to cut!
Once these layers of paper have dried, trace your pumpkin shape onto the puzzle side. You can toss the pumpkin template now, or you can save it for a coloring page.
Pro Tip #2: Before you start cutting, it would be wise to make a photo copy of the puzzle. This way the kids have something to look at while they piece it together.
Now get to cutting. Cut out the pumpkin shape first. Then cut following the lines of the puzzle template. Voila!
I did one extra step for this particular puzzle because I thought it would be too difficult for addie without a border. So before I cut the actual puzzle, I put it on a piece of green card stock and cut my puzzle from there. You can do it either way.
Tell me below, what is your favorite thing about the Fall season?

He clasps his hands together and bows, low. When he lifts his head again, his arms now at his sides, his eyes glisten, moist perhaps, but not teary. He lifts his gaze to the balcony, scans it, then looks to those seated closest to him. As he glances across the front rows, there is the very slightest hint of a warm smile, perhaps conspiratorial. Then he joins hands with the rest of the company.
"Look, he's so moved," I'll overhear a nearby lady remark. "Oh, but now he's smiling," says another, relived and happy, bonding with him in the very final moments of several hours in the theater. They feel more connected because he's shown them all that he feels so deeply, sad, elated, a bit tired, by all that's come before.
I have seen this particular bow more than once, and it never fails to move audiences to comment, no matter what has come before. Because it is the bow of a friend who typically plays leading roles, I have seen it at the end of classics and new plays, of comedies and dramas. It is a performance unto itself, but no less genuine for being one. And while the play that preceded it may be flawed, this particular, brief display of emotion and thanks always delivers.
We say so much about the theater we see that we often don't take into account the curtain call itself, the bows, the epilogue to the performance that allows us to join with the company one last time. Indeed it is not uncommon at the end of a curtain call for the actors, before they depart the stage, to reach out their hands, stretching towards us, to applaud us, in mutual admiration, cementing a bond. Nowadays, when the curtain call is discussed at all, it is to decry the falseness of Broadway's seemingly de rigueur standing ovations, an honor once reserved for performances of extraordinary merit, now the inexplicable and meaningless standard.
Let's not engage in yet another debate about the devalued ovation, but consider instead the act of the bows. Even at their simplest, different stages dictate different patterns; while a proscenium allows for a straightforward, straight-across line of actors entering and bowing successively, in the order of the size of their role or, in some cases, their personal fame, looking out, looking up (if there is one or more balcony) joining hands and bowing en masse. If the stage is a thrust, or perhaps in the round, the company is usually arrayed separately, and they turn together to each side of the audience as they bow, keying off of some unseen signal in a final bit of subtle choreography.
Subtlety is not always required; the curtain call can be an extension of the performance that enhances it. As if we had not had enough fun at Matthew Warchus's Boeing-Boeing, he enlisted Kathleen Marshall to choreograph a final burst of motion and mirth, insuring that even the bows failed to begin to distance us from the show we had enjoyed; it sent us bouncing out of the theater, not merely collecting our things after dutiful or enthusiastic clapping. A number of English musicals offer the mega-mix finale which, after we've already begun clapping and perhaps taken to our feet, recaps what's come before with a medley of the show's best tunes; it is designed to get us on our feet, often against our better judgment, lest we be seen as spoilsports. In the case of Mamma Mia!, the curtain calls are topped with the song "Waterloo," a big Abba hit that couldn't be shoehorned into the plot, and its last minute deployment takes the entire show the one final joyous, rhapsodic plane.
Productions of the vintage Arsenic and Old Lace are known to have a series of hitherto unseen men emerge from the set's supposed basement; they are nightly-rotated strangers who are recognized as some of the heretofore unseen corpses sent off by the sweet old ladies' wine. At Bring It On, the curtain calls are accompanied by videos of the cast in rehearsals, as well as the creative team; while it mirrors the videos that pervade our internet lives, or the bloopers that run alongside credits in some movies, it shows that the cast is "just like us." It also allows brief glimpses of the creative team as we applaud and while they may not be known to all, I could smile as I applauded, at Amanda, at Lin-Manuel, at Tom and so on; I have always been of the belief that authors, directors and designers should be brought to the stage for bows whenever they are in the house, not only on opening nights, and this is a compromise solution.
These examples among the most creative I've seen, and perhaps far too rare. They don't belong in serious drama, of course; they'd be ridiculous at Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? or The Normal Heart, but something special is certainly appropriate for vintage musicals and for comedies, even classic ones. Sadly, bows are too often an afterthought, roughly staged if at all at the first previews, given order as the production comes closer to an opening night. That is why I always marvel at my friend's self-contained bow; no matter what the circumstance of a given production, he is complete unto himself at the denouement, with unwavering results.
Of course even the most perfunctory bow is better than none at all. Some directors, typically on dark works with many deaths, will argue that to bring the actors back to the stage is to deny what has come before; to brings back corpses (apparently having never seen Arsenic and Old Lace) makes no sense. In two productions that I have seen -- the most recent Broadway revival of Journey's End and, years earlier, Mark Lamos' Julius Caesar at Hartford Stage -- the bodies strewn about the stage rose before our eyes, not under cover of darkness, and we applauded as were slightly chilled, never knowing whether we'd just applauded performance, staging or resurrection, not that it matters.
I take issue with directors who eschew curtain calls on artistic grounds, because, along with everyone else in the audience, I am denied the opportunity to express my appreciation to the cast, and we leave the theater dissatisfied and puzzled by the absence of convention, surely not what any director really seeks. Applauding is a theatrical social contract of many, many years' practice, and appreciation denied is appreciation diminished.
I'm not suggesting that every production should contrive a unique curtain call; to do so would then make them as boring as standing ovations have largely become. But as we parse every aspect of theater making and theater marketing to insure that we are attracting and sustaining audiences, we mustn't forget the impact of that last minute -- after the show itself has ended but before the audience is released back into the real world -- and its ability to enhance what has come before and to make audiences truly a part of it, achieving community not just within the audience but throughout the theater.

Scout Boats recently presented Richard Devito and Johnny Thomerson with a plaque recognizing Lenco Marine as their Supplier of the Year for 2012.
To simply say that Scout Boats is an innovative fishing boat company would be a gross understatement. Under the guiding vision of company President Steve Potts, Scout has earned a reputation for being on the cutting edge of design and quality. Consider just a few of the unique design features that make a Scout a Scout. It all starts with the in-house design team headed by Steve Potts.
Steve Potts from Scout Boats says "I feel as though this is a fitting recognition of Lenco and each of you. Your Company exemplifies all that is good in a supplier/partner with our company. There is not enough "thank yous" for all the extra work that you've invested in helping Scout be in the top of its class of boats."
It's no wonder a company that puts such a priority on innovation, quality craftsmanship and dedication to manufacturing a great product would pick Lenco Marine as there 2012 supplier of the year.

Jehovah's Witnesses watchman › Forums › Watchman Forum › Reconciling violence in the scripture › Reply To: Reconciling violence in the scripture
Hello Dustman, my reasoning in asking the question was really based on the conflict of principle…ergo, love, forgiveness and as you say, love your enemies. Well, the thought had a modern day application too. You could not love the nazis you had to fight them. Thus all England went to war. In considering these things in the past, I came to the conclusion that Jehovah does not take life, so as to destroy what is holy, he simply withdraws that force from the body and returns it to himself. Thus Robert is most likely correct in that they will get a resurrection. But that is not the point exactly; that being addressing the moral issue which I suppose this is about. Murder. If Jehovah was simply taking back what was his, then this is not murder, the life is his, literally. We can murder because we take what is not ours…..the persons consciousness…and life is not ours to give or take, as the issue of blood explains. But if Jehovah is an all encompassing life form, then with holding consciousness and the right to experience it for a given length of time, puts a different perspective on how Jehovah reveals his purpose.
