That isn't the sound of roller coasters on the Orlando theme park landscape: It's the rumble of advancing cannon fire. The first shots of war that will last at least until 2014 are now being lobbed between Disney and Universal in Central Florida.
The battle began two years ago with the blockbuster opening of Universal's Harry Potter extension. Toppled from its unchallenged throne, Disney scrambled to come up with weapons to re-establish dominance on the family vacation scene.
Its first volley came in March, when Disney's Magic Kingdom made an early pitch to very young children by opening the first phase of its estimated $425 million Fantasyland makeover. There's a bright new Dumbo ride, now outfitted with the moat that Disney's other worldwide elephant carousels have. It will be joined in July by a twin that rotates in the opposite direction, plus an interactive Storybook Circus queue area that takes the misery out of waiting in the sun for the classic toddler photo op.
Besides Double Dumbo, as fans are calling it, other newly opened additions are also fixes of existing stuff: a re-themed Barnstormer kiddie coaster and the re-dressing of an existing Walt Disney World Railroad station.
None of that would necessarily coax a family to buy plane tickets to Florida. But just wait. As with its nightly fireworks show, Disney is working up to a grand finale, stretching its Fantasyland additions over two years. By December, Fantasyland gets an elaborate new indoor ride, Under The Sea — Journey of the Little Mermaid.
True, a duplicate has been up and running at California's Disneyland Resort for nearly a year, but it's not the only major new Fantasyland ride under construction. The other is the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train roller coaster, which will have carriages that rock like miners' carts as they travel. That arrives in early 2014.
To prepare for that, a tragedy for Disney history: On May 31, Disney will close and demolish Snow White's Scary Adventures, an indoor ride that has been terrifying toddlers since Day One of the Magic Kingdom in 1971.
But also on May 31, Disney finally responds to recession demand with it's summer-long expansion of its least expensive "Value" hotel offerings.
Construction on the 87-acre Art of Animation Resort started more than a decade ago as the second phase of the existing Pop Century, but the tourism climate put completion in limbo until now. Now it's finished. Outside, the recipe is all Disney Value: Sprawling three-story, motel-style buildings gussied up with eye-popping decorations themed to Disney movies. It's huge, adding nearly 2,000 rooms and a 310,000-gallon pool to the Disney lodging portfolio.
Inside, there are 1,120 "family suites" for six people (plus a baby) of the style already popular at the All-Star resorts, filling a need for groups that are too big for Disney's usual four-person per-room limit. Rates start at $94 for regular rooms and $258 for suites in low season. Multi-bedroom vacation homes off Disney property often cost less, but here, you pay more to get closer to the action.
Disney is doing another favor for budget travelers. All of its resorts now offer free wireless Internet, saving visitors $10 per day.
While Disney applies new coats of paint on old stuff, Universal wheels more big guns into place for the next salvo. The demolition of Universal Studios' beloved Jaws boat ride in January spawned rumors, with some government filings to back them up, that a massive second phase of its Wizarding World of Harry Potter is underway.
ThemeParkInsider.com recently published plans it claimed were leaked, and they portend a Diagon Alley expansion to be anchored by a lavish ride-through of Gringotts Wizarding Bank. That would put one Harry Potter land in both of Universal Orlando's theme parks, probably with a Hogwarts Express train to link them.
So far, Universal is mum, perhaps preferring to confirm the bombshell at a moment when it will most devastate its competition, which has no such earthshaking developments in the rumor mill. In the meantime, Universal is doing the theme park equivalent of housekeeping.
The sometimes-blurry 3-D animation on its Spider-Man ride was recently replaced with a crisp digital update. On May 8, the Universal Studios park gets Cinematic Spectacular, a nighttime show featuring fireworks and movie clips projected on water screens that's a scaled-down imitator of Disney's superlative World of Color at California Adventure. And this summer, it refits its old Jimmy Neutron simulated motion theater as Despicable Me Minion Mayhem.
Nearby, SeaWorld Orlando keeps up with its dueling neighbors with the April 27 debut of TurtleTrek, which is 300,000 gallons of habitats for turtles and manatees paired with a 360-degree, 3-D domed movie, requiring 34 projectors, that animates the life of a sea turtle. Across the street, SeaWorld's luxury-priced Discovery Cove adds Freshwater Oasis, in which guests wade near otters and marmosets.
Not to be left out, newcomer Legoland Florida, which opened in October, adds a new water park on May 26. Like everything Legoland does, it's specifically scaled to kids under 10.
All in all, it's a busy summer in Orlando, but these developments are only potshots. The artillery is on its way, and by the end of next year, hopefully as recession-torn families are ready to travel more, it'll be guns blazing in Florida again.

I think this MEP would be a lot of fun for all of us. It'll also be an interesting way to let everyone know when we got started in life and as an editor.
Please post all your questions here.
For Clarifications: The two links above are just something to get you started. I noticed there are a lot of songs missing from the song list that came out. Additionally, for anime source, it's the year you made your first video according to the org. Not year you joined the org. Also for anime released I decided you can go with both US or Japan release dates to help broaden your choice of titles to use.
EDIT: you know I got to thinking, why should we be limited to one video? If you can think of a couple or even a dozen I'll take em for this.
Okay it's been plenty of time and I don't think anyone else is going to submit anything. So here it goes, time to get started on your videos. Also going to allow you guys to go longer than a minute with your videos to a full song if you wish, since there are so few of us participating. The deadline to get this all done is July 31st since I would like to do a showing at AWA and will need ample time to submit the request to them and have time to get information into the program guide.
Anyway, here's the list of videos we've gotten thus far. If you wanna change something up or do another song just let me know and I'll update it here.

Uh huh, Uh huh, Uh huh, Uh huh
Eh, eh, eh, eh
Fort killers, Broke breads with brick dealers
Four-fives turn animals to chinchillas
From the South Bronx came right up
Took the wrong pill last night, f'd my night up
Uh, underrated is an understatement
I got old money prolly in your mother basement
Stash box, Hk's, Sk's, Ak's, Mac's, no laptops
From the street to the rap, ain't nothing different
Bagging up, watch the lock-down, San Quentin
Mind racing, money be my destination driver
Selling snort, heli-port, hella-choppers
You hear the beep, then you see the light
Got some homies in the pen might never see the life
Pitbull, no lice, mask on, long nose, homie with the clip full
I been making power-moves
Back when Amber Rose was shaking her ass in Sue's!
Back when Ma$e brung Randy to the block
Just couple days I had Maya on the block
Nothing changed but the players in the game
Rules and the suckers,The nerds and the cuffers
Kyle Watson: Born Undercover
Tom Sheppard, I'm all in your mother
Talking New York fool, serving the dog food, on CD's, Nah I don't talk to PD
I'm posted on the block still
Shout my homie Diddy for the Ciroc deal
I ain't signed yet, made it to the billboard
Man this the kinda shit niggas kill for
Uh, Five stacks to my favorite dancer
Stunt my ass off, shorty like "Lift your pants up"
Money longer than a flight to Taiwain!
Got your bitch going down like my timeline
?, 50 Thou Rolley-ing, 50 Cal ?
Bleached chair, be clear
We the mob took the chips need a few rings
Car 500 horses, it grow wings
I be balling like the Meadowlands
100 round drum sound like a metal band
Coldplay, U2, you now rocking with the leaders of the new school
Hundred racks, homie getting paper-cuts
Coke Boy leave you leaking like a paper-cup
Is the cup leaking yet!>?
French Montana leaves a memorable freestyle on Funkmaster Flex's radio show. The Coke Boy (cough Ciroc Boy) shows us he's not just a hook machine, but he can lay down some funny and deep-rooted slang punchlines.

Program Overview: Introduction
Geography is more important than ever to make sense of our changing world. This workshop lays the foundation for the geography content and pedagogical skills to assist you in teaching challenging lessons in your classroom.
We begin with an overview of the geographical perspective, highlighting the eighteen National Geography Standards and associated geographic skills that inform the Teaching Geography series, as well as introducing concepts of human and regional geography. These issues are illustrated through two video case studies. The first is in the borderland region of El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juárez, Mexico; the second follows NASA astronauts on a space shuttle mission. This foundation in solid geographic content and teaching methodology is seen in practice in a classroom segment where students answer the question, "Why is Russia's Aral Sea shrinking?"
This video is currently not available.
1. El Paso and Ciudad Juárez: Life on the Borderlands
This program introduces the eighteen National Geography Standards, showing how they can explain the complexity of our geographic world. We also introduce regional geographer Dr. Gil Latz and human geographer Dr. Susan Hardwick. A case study on the neighboring cities of El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juárez in Mexico highlights the importance of understanding spatial relationships and geography's effect on human lives.
That case study follows the compelling story of Concha, a single mother of five, who had been living in a tar-paper shack in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, just south of the U.S. border. Now working in a maquiladora, she previously spent her nights sneaking through the rattlesnake-infested desert smuggling cigarettes to sell in Hispanic bars in El Paso, Texas. Her illegal journey, and now her factory work, not only brings her across the border of two countries but across two geographical regions. We thus dramatically illustrate the concepts of regions; relative location, size, and scale; spatial variation; and human-environmental interaction.
how the eighteen National Geography Standards can help further understanding
of geographic concepts.
how a geographic perspective provides insight into a variety
of issues.
concepts central to regional and human geography.
- Understand how border regions shape people's lives.
Part 2. NASA: A Lofty
This half-hour provides a framework for inquiry-based teaching, introducing the five geographic skills of the inquiry process and associated teaching methodology through a case study of a NASA space shuttle mission. The commanding view of Earth from space points out the benefits of shuttle- and satellite-gathered imagery that is employed in the accompanying classroom segment. In that segment, our teacher uses a new NASA-developed Mission Geography Inquiry lesson to help his students understand how geographic factors play a role in the shrinking of Russia's Aral Sea.
- Identify the five geographic skills and recognize how they are used in geographic inquiry.
how satellite imagery can illuminate geographic events.
- Examine how the geographic skills can serve as the framework for an inquiry lesson.

The recent elections underlined a growing tension in political money circles: Business people are increasingly fed up with the activist wing of the Republican Party. It's a trend that will have broad implications for next year's midterm elections and the presidential race in 2016, political experts say.
In Alabama on Nov. 5, Republican Bradley Byrne beat tea party favorite Dean Young for a U.S. House seat in part because the business community rallied around him. In Virginia, Democrat Terry McAuliffe bested tea party-backed Republican Ken Cuccinelli partially because some conservative business donors wouldn't give to the GOP campaign—or even switched sides. And in New Jersey, moderate Republican Chris Christie crushed tea party candidate Seth Grossman in the primary and then Democrat Barbara Buono in the general election because of strong business support.
And there's more to come. Business interests appear to be rallying behind moderate Republicans Brian Ellis, David Trott and Mike Simpson against tea party-approved challengers Justin Amash, Kerry Bentivolio and Bryan Smith for House seats in 2014 (Ellis and Trott are running in Michigan and Simpson is in Idaho).
(Read more: Christie wins big, tea party loses in Va. race)
"We're seeing a fraying of the longtime alliance between the business community and activist, fiscally conservative Republicans," said Christopher C. Hull, an adjunct professor of politics at Georgetown University and head of political advocacy technology firm BlastRoots.

This is the interior of one of the four Doomsday Planes operated by the Air Force. These planes would keep the Secretary of Defense and the top brass of the US military alive in case of massive terrorist attacks, nuclear strikes, asteroids hitting Earth, super volcano eruptions, and zombie invasions.
Based at Offutt Air Force Base, in Nebraska, its actual name is Boeing E-4B Advanced Airborne Command Post. It was developed in 1974 under the project name Nightwatch to keep the head of the US military forces safe in the event of nuclear world war.
The plane uses a 747-200B airframe modified to keep it flying under extreme circumstances. For example, the plane is EMP shielded: If it gets hit by the electromagnetic pulse from a nuclear explosion, the computer systems inside wouldn't be affected.

The Muppets Sequel Won't Have Jason Segel, But Walter Will Return
The creation of Walter was an inspired way to re-introduce the Muppets, establishing their past through an admiring fan that ultimately makes his own Rainbow Connection. However, Walter as a character isn't nearly as engaging or memorable as the classic Muppets, so it's a smart move to shuffle him into the supporting players and put Kermit back in his place as the Muppet movies' emotional center.

Then Segel quashed our hopes of seeing him reprise his role as that Muppet of a man, Gary. And now, the lumbering leading man makes it clear he will not even pop up as a cameo in Muppets 2.

Courtney Love Claims That The Muppets Raped Kurt Cobain's Memory
The Muppets was filled to the brim with many wacky and absurd moments - such as the Kill Bill-style kidnapping of Jack Black and The Moopets rendition of "Rainbow Connection - but the one that may very well top the list is the barbershop quartet performance of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." Given the mentions of guns and libidos as well as the overall tone of the song, it was a strange choice for a children's movie, but still made for a hilarious moment

Segel was part of the charm of Bobin's not-so-surprising hit, though he'd be the first person to admit that the majority of the audience members turned up to see Kermit, Miss Piggy and the rest of Jim Henson's puppets, and not necessarily the human characters with which the Muppets interacted. This probably means Amy Adams is breaking free from the sequel, as well, freeing the franchise to go in a completely new direction.

New Muppets Movie On The Way Without Jason Segel As Screenwriter
The Muppets, and the resulting film proved to be a fun family comedy that thrilled audiences and critics alike, and even won an Oscar for its pivotal anthem "Man or Muppet." So a sequel of sorts seemed guaranteed. Sadly, Vulture reports that while Disney has made a deal with Muppets director James Bobin and co-writer Nicholas Stoller to create a sequel to the winsome adventure, it looks like The Muppets' spearheader Segel may be left out.

Muppets Will Present at Oscars, Cirque Du Soleil Will Perform
Now, I'm sure that if you're actually in the Kodak Theater during the Cirque Du Soleil performance it will be dynamic and exciting. However, for the rest of us, who Oscar desperately hopes will tune in to watch, this will be a strange and likely overlong segment that'll probably urge us to take bathroom breaks or channel surf.

Oscars May Leave Out Best Original Song Performances At This Year's Ceremony
Due to the Academy's voting system for Oscar nominees, there are just two original songs nominated for Oscars this year. If seeing "Real in Rio" or "Man or Muppet" performed at the Oscars later this month was one of the things you were most anticipating, you may be in for a disappointment. Rumor has it, neither song will be performed at this year's ceremony.

Like everyone else, Jerry Gulke of The Gulke Group can't quite believe this year's near picture-perfect corn growing season. "We thought there'd be a bad day or a bad week when we would have a crop scare, but it appears that throughout the country we haven't had a bad growing day," Gulke told Farm Journal Radio Friday. Corn may be hitting the black layer stage in northern Illinois in a few weeks, and soybean yields are plumping up, thanks to timely rain.
"All things being equal, it looks good from here," Gulke said.
But he cautioned farmers and ranchers to be smart in the weeks and months ahead, given the downward price pressure on corn and soybeans in the face of such big crops. (While Gulke thinks that corn acreage may be down, he thinks the average yield could reach 175 bu. per acre; soybeans are also promising, with some crop watchers forecasting yields of 47.5 bu. per acre for beans.)
Listen to Jerry Gulke's full analysis here:
For livestock producers, that means shifting away from a grass diet to an increasingly affordable corn-heavy one. "It makes economic sense for everyone who raises calves to become a feedlot," Gulke said, noting the recent price rallies in the market even for 2015 futures. "… We're getting a livestock position where you can go quite way out and still be making money feeding cattle."
For grain farmers, though, Gulke is worried about the potential carryover on such a large crop and how long it could depress prices in the short and long term. He stressed the importance of grain storage, which gives farmers more control about when and what price to sell their crop in the months to come. "If you've got grain storage, you can make 35 cents. And if you're creative, you can make more," Gulke said. "…The easy money on the downside is gone, so now we've got to make 10 cents here, 15 cents there on storage and creative marketing in order to make this a pretty decent year."

Fire crackled and sizzled nearby as police officers lifted Havelock firefighter Charlie Winter head first through a side window of a burning home Tuesday in search of a missing child.
HAVELOCK � Fire crackled and sizzled nearby as police officers lifted Havelock firefighter Charlie Winter head first through a side window of a burning home Tuesday in search of a missing child.
�They said they could hear the baby in that window, so I went in that window,� Winter said.
Black smoke filled the small bedroom.
�It was just a black wall in front of my eyes� Winter said. �After doing the search, I could not find him. The officers outside said they could hear him in another room.�
As other firefighters tackled the flames, Winter negotiated his way into the adjacent room in his search for 2-year-old Dylan Burkett.
�I couldn�t see him. It was pitch black with smoke,� he said. �After going in the second bedroom I kept hearing a small cry, and every time I heard a cry, I went in that direction and found him.
�He was in a corner on a bed just sitting there. Once I could tell he was still crying, it was a good feeling, and once I got him outside, it felt pretty good.�
Winter handed the child to fellow fire fighter/paramedic Megan Lashway, who rushed the child to a waiting ambulance.
Winter said the little boy was too young to say anything.
�All he could do was cry, but I�ll take a cry. Crying�s good,� Winter said.
The fire erupted around noon at a home at 100 Pineview St., in Havelock, and quickly engulfed the single-story wood-frame house, thought to be about 70 years old.
The child�s father, William Burkett, had already pulled another son, Little Will, age 3, out of the house and had made several attempts to locate and save the younger sibling.
Neighbor Billy Smith heard the father screaming.
�I heard somebody holler and saw that guy holler, and I went out and saw fire at that there window,� Smith said. �I seen him laying on the ground kicking and screaming. He fell down by that old washer. I don�t know if he tried to get into the back door and it was locked or what.�
The whole front of the home was ablaze when the first fire crews arrived. Winter said he was directed to the side of the house where passersby had heard the child inside.
�We could hear the baby moving around in there,� said Virginia Harper, who saw the fire. �The father was trying to get the baby. There were two heavy-set men pulling toys and stuff out of the window trying to call him.�
Fire crews directed Winter to the side window.
�The police officers helped me jump into the window,� Winter said. �I couldn�t have gotten in there without the police officers� help.�
After finding the child, Winter realized that two of his own fingers had been slightly burned in the rescue. He had run up to the house with just one protective fire glove.
�They told me to hurry up and find the kid and I don�t care about the glove,� Winter said.
Winter has been with the department for a decade and said he had never had a live rescue.
�That was the first time. Ten years. That was my first time like that,� he said.
Winter had a brief phone conversation with the rescued boy�s mother, Destiny Matson, at the scene of the fire.
�She was very, very happy, very thankful,� he said. �I told her she didn�t need to be, but she was very, very happy.�
Richard Matson Sr., grandfather of the children and Destiny�s father, said the family has been together for about seven years and has four children. He said he told his daughter that the house is gone but not to worry.
�Material things. Forget it. You�re all alive,� he said. �That�s what you should be thankful for.�
By Tuesday afternoon, the Red Cross was coming in to help the family with any immediate needs.
Dylan Burkett was transported initially to CarolinaEast Medical Center in New Bern and then sent to Vidant Medical Center in Greenville to receive treatment for smoke inhalation. A Vidant spokesman said Burkett was in fair condition Tuesday night.
Havelock, Cherry Point and Newport firefighters needed about 30 minutes to put out the fire, the cause of which is still under investigation.
�These guys did a great job,� Rick Zaccardelli, chief of the Havelock Fire and Rescue Department, said of the firefighters at the scene. �Everybody did a great job.�
As for Winter, Zaccardelli said he was proud.
�He didn�t hesitate. It just shows the commitment that he has to the community,� Zaccardelli said.
Grandfather Matson had another word.
�He�s a hero,� he said. �They�re all heroes.�

2- 24-27″ Flour sack dish towels, hemmed
2- strips from a Jelly Roll: Simple Abundance by Bonnie and Camille
3 +1/8th yards rick-rack
This is how darling they are when they are finished!
First, press your towels, then cut the Jelly roll strips the width of the towel PLUS 1″
Turn both ends of the Jelly roll strip under 1/2″
Sew down the long edges on the rick-rack.
Sew the sides of the Jelly roll strip as you sew around the towel.
Fold the towel into thirds, leaving 3-4″ at the top.
Fold the towel into thirds the opposite way so it is a nice square.
Now, what to do with that little left over piece of Jelly roll that you cut off? If you have a rotary cutter with a pinking blade, cut the left over strip in half length wise.
Tie one around a jar or Jelly…or jam.
Or, sew the two together like this to make one long strip.
Fold the towels again in half and tie the strip around them to make a bow.
Keep them for yourself, or give away to your favorite friend or neighbor! I thought seven different colors would be wonderful, one for each day of the week! You could even make an apron from the same line of fabric…then the lady of the kitchen would be so " in Vogue!"
2 very pretty dish towels.

Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
ESU students now have the opportunity to earn a B.S. degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB) . The BMB is an interdisciplinary major, co-administered by the departments of Physical Sciences and Biological Sciences . The interdisciplinary character of the major reflects the nature of the discipline. The interface between chemistry and biology is a frontier in which its practitioners aim to describe the chemical principles underlying life processes. The BMB major will allow students to study in detail the molecules of life, culminating in a detailed understanding of biomolecular structure and function in the context of how they ultimately contribute to the life of the cell and the organism. Students will also learn modern methods of biochemical analysis, including bioinformatics.
The curriculum is rigorous. The 30+ hours of chemistry include organic and physical chemistry. Biology requirements include cell biology, as well as classical and molecular genetics. The curriculum also involves two semesters of physics and a semester of calculus. BMB majors will also carry out original research under the tutelage of a chemistry or biology faculty member, and will present the results of that research at a departmental seminar.
With the rigor, however, comes the reward! This interface between chemistry and biology - the understanding of life processes at the chemical (molecular) level - is one of the most exciting and rapidly-developing areas of science! Imagine yourself
• elucidating the secrets of the human genome
• developing new therapeutic strategies for disease treatment
• determining how environmental factors affect human health
• exploring new ways to effectively fight bioterrorism
• improving crop production and agricultural disease resistance
• investigating the biological implications of long-term human space exploration
• solving mysteries utilizing forensic analysis
Students who graduate with this degree will have developed the skills necessary for graduate study in biochemistry, molecular biology, or biotechnology, or for employment in the private or public sector in biotechnology-related fields. The American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology has published a pamphlet that nicely describes many of the various options available to students who have mastered this discipline. The major also provides exceptional preparation for health-related professional programs such as medical school.

Filmmakers vs. Aggregators: Distribber speaks of Win, Win!/
Today's guest post is from Distribber founder Adam Chapnick responding to the question of just what IS Distribber and how can it make the world safer for filmmakers.
Distribber was recently acquired by IndieGoGo, and in the wake of the publicity surrounding the announcement, we received a tremendous outpouring of enthusiasm and interest in Distribber's service. As is inevitable, there's been some confusion around what Distribber does and doesn't do.
Distribber was created to help rights holders maximize the payback from their work and investment.
More specifically, Distribber was conceived as a solution to several persistent complaints from filmmakers and other creative rights holders about distributors in general and aggregators in particular. ("Aggregator" is the term used for a company that acts as a gatekeeper between a rights holder and a retail platform, such as iTunes, Netflix, Hulu or Cable VOD operators like Comcast, Time Warner, etc.)
The complaints surrounded 3 specific pain points:
Complaint #1. Eternal revenue-share for finite service
Aggregators (other than Distribber) work on a revenue-share basis, meaning that they make money by keeping between 15% and 50% of your revenue that they collect from the retail platforms on your behalf. They take this portion of revenue for the entire term of your deal with them. The complaint from filmmakers was that while aggregators take this money "forever," they didn't seem to be working forever. To many, it seemed that aggregators placed their film on the platforms and then moved on.
This situation was even more frustrating for larger rights holders -- production companies, sales reps, etc. -- who controlled the rights to several (often dozens) of titles, and who engaged in significant marketing and grassroots outreach but lacked access to iTunes, except through revenue share entities. The shared-revenue structure has continued to frustrate these larger companies as they have been the core demand-drivers.
Now, in defense of aggregators, encoding a film, ushering it through Quality Control "QC" and having the access to place it on iTunes or Netflix or Hulu or Cable VOD or anywhere else is indeed a valuable service -- and often a time-consuming one.
However, it seemed that one could put a fair price on that service that accounted for the work and value of relationships, and offer it to filmmakers cleanly, without the burden of a revenue-share. This would enable a filmmaker, production company or other rights holder to know their cash outflow in advance, and enjoy 100% of the benefit of their film's success. So, Distribber adopted a flat-fee-for-service model.
Complaint #2. Large deducted expenses, often including fees for marketing services that seemed unhelpful or nonexistent
Filmmakers complained that distributors and aggregators deducted expenses that seemed unreasonable, like $1500 for encoding, or an array of costs for marketing services that the filmmaker wasn't sure had actually been done.
Here, the opportunity was again to charge a fair price, once. So, Distribber adopted a fair price. The $1295 one-time fee for iTunes placement was less than some rev-share companies charged for the encoding alone, and after only 185 sales at $9.99 on iTunes, rights holders have been entirely in profit.
Without putting too fine a point on it, it bears emphasizing: after 185 iTunes sales at $9.99, a rights holder is in profit for the rest of the film's life on iTunes. Going forward, Distribber charges $79 per year for account access, collection and sales stats.
The best evidence that we were on the right track came when the Age of Stupid production team chose to use Distribber -- they have been incredibly successful trailblazers in the hybrid distribution movement, and their endorsement told us that our service is providing its intended benefits for its ideal users.
To compare Distribber's model with revenue-share models, consider the illustration below. At 1000 iTunes sales (retail price $9.99), rights holders give up 174% more money under a 15% rev-share than they pay to Distribber ($3,550 compared to $1295). Under a 25% rev-share, rights holders pay 228% more ($4,250). At 10,000 sales, Distribber's one-time fee doesn't change, but a 15% rev-share deal now costs ten times the Distribber fee ($13,000), while a 25% rev-share deal costs over fifteen times more ($20,000). Obviously, at 20,000 sales, the disparity only increases.
Looking at revenue, with Distribber's flat fee, at 1000 iTunes sales, rights holders are paid 65% more than they would be with a 15% rev-share deal ($5,705 vs. $3,450), and they're paid more than twice what they'd get from a 25% deal ($5,626 vs. $2,750). At 10,000 sales, Distribber clients keep $11,705 more than they would under a 15% rev-share, and $18,705 more than they would under a 25% rev-share. And again, at 20,000 sales, a rights holder does even better.
What A Filmmaker Is Charged, With: What A Filmmaker Keeps, With:
|15% Rev-Share
|25% Rev-Share
|15% Rev-Share
|25% Rev-Share
|At 1000 iTunes sales
|At 10000 iTunes sales
|At 20000 iTunes sales
(The chart assumes Rev-share companies deduct from filmmaker's revenue $2500 for encoding and/or marketing.)
And now, with Distribber's addition of Amazon VOD and Netflix's streaming service, we decided that as a limited-time promotion, for the same $1295, Distribber clients could have our Amazon and Netflix service for free. This of course only makes the above comparison even more lopsided in Distribber clients' favor, since it adds revenue without adding any expense.
Complaint #3. Late payments, and sometimes no payment
Filmmakers complained that even after resigning themselves to a rev-share deal, and agreeing to the small payout left after expenses and revenue share deductions, they had to chase distributors and aggregators for reports and checks, and sometimes with none being sent at all.
So, Distribber has decided to do away with reports and checks, and instead employ a user account system, whereby clients login with a username and password. Here they gain access to collection stats by platform, and see their collected funds balance. Clients withdraw their own money on demand, with the click of a button. Having all sales stats and collection in one account removed a major, time-consuming headache from our clients lives for $79 a year.
Next: More Pain, More Answers
Even a casual follower of the distribution business knows that there are plenty of areas it can be improved, and in plenty of ways. Distribber is continuing to actively developing new methods and models to serve rights holders across a variety of platforms, from internet to cable to mobile.
With the proliferation of tools like Wordpress, Facebook, Twitter and all the plugins and apps that support those services, it's more possible than ever for innovative companies, teams -- or even individuals -- to disrupt old marketing models and connect with audiences. Filmmaker/marketers like Gary Hustwit, Lance Weiler, Tiffany Shlain and others have shown the way to create demand via their own efforts and investment. Peter Broderick is shepherding rights holders through a hybrid strategy that teaches careful allocation of specific rights to companies that are highly specialized, with the goal of maximizing the revenue a filmmaker keeps.
The key thing to understand about Distribber is that it's a powerful tool to help enterprising rights holders keep the most of their own money. The more skilled you are at connecting with audience, the more buzz that you've built, the better Distribber's deal works for you.

The push for government support for newspaper continues and this week publishers and their supporters—including the Newspaper Association of America—went before the House Joint Economic Committee detailing how the current economic climate has harmed their finances and arguing for preferential changes to tax and pension laws. They asked to be allowed to extend application of the net operating loss provisions from 2 years to 5 years and for changes in laws to allow them to underfund pension funds for a greater period of time. Both would improve their operating performance and balance sheets.
This is a case of the newspaper industry seeking long-term business benefits to solve a short-term crisis caused by poor management decisions and the recession. The leading newspaper firms and their representatives are making concerted efforts to dupe legislators and the public into believing their troubles are part of the general trends in the industry, rather than the result of management decisions and the financial crisis that is diminishing. If the provisions are passed, the public treasury will be diminished for years to come and risks for employee pensions will be increased.
Newspaper executives and other witnesses were sympathetically treated at the hearing this week, but it is unclear whether they will be able to achieve the policies they advocated.
Another proposal that the commercial firms are uninterested in themselves, but expressed sympathy for, would broadening laws regarding charities to include not-for-profit newspapers. Their support was astute because the House Joint Economic Committee's chair, Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), has introduced her own bill (H.R. 3602) to allow newspapers to become tax exempt under section 501(C)(3) of the tax code. Her bill somewhat mirror Senate bill 673 by Sen. Benjamin Cardin, D-Md., that was discussed earlier in this blog (Analysis of the Newspaper Revitalization Act, http://themediabusiness.blogspot.com/2009/03/analysis-of-newspaper-revitalization.html). There are some differences in Maloney's bill that need to be highlighted.
Under Section (b) of H.R. 3602, companies would qualify for tax exempt status through a 3-part test.
First, companies would have to be "publishing on a regular basis a newspaper of general circulation" to qualify. This provision stipulates no periodicity so it does not limit qualification to dailies, which are experiencing the greatest economic and financial difficulties. This language provides the exemption only to established papers and would thus exclude startups until after they were regularly publishing, requiring startups to initially obtain financing through other than tax-deductible donations.
The language in this first test requires that publications be "a newspaper of general circulation" and this will lead to questions whether it applies to newspapers focused on specific audiences in a community—such as African Americans or senior citizens—or papers providing more focused content—such as news and information for a specific neighborhood or devoted solely to politics or crime. This ambiguity could be used by IRS examiners against some papers and could be used by some publishers to take advantage of a policy not intended for them.
The second provision requires that qualifying papers publish "local, national or international stories of interest to the general public and the distribution of such newspaper is necessary or valuable in achieving an educational purpose." The provision regarding type of coverage is better than the Senate bill because it does not require publication of all 3 types of news—something not done in many local papers.
The third provision requires that content preparation "follows methods generally accepted as educational in character." This provision is exceedingly vague and its application is unclear because it does not deal with the content of the paper, but with the preparation of the paper. How "the preparation of the material" follows accepted educational methods would seem to require that the papers be part of an educational activity, such as being linked to training in schools or universities. This would highly limit the applicability of the bill to existing newspaper operations.
Like the Senate bill, Section (c) permits papers to carry advertising "to the extent that such newspaper does not exceed the space allotted to fulfilling the educational purposes of such qualified newspaper corporation." This would require papers to publish no more than an equal amount of editorial and advertising content. This is lower than the limit of postal service limit (75%) and would force most existing papers to drop about 1/3 of their existing advertising or incur damaging costs by printing more news pages than they do now. This would cripple the finances of any daily paper.
Finally, Section (d) of the legislation permits qualified companies to accept tax deductable charitable donations to support their operations.
This bill, like its Senate predecessor, is likely to have limited affects on the newspaper industry because it will not interest newspaper owners because most of their papers are producing profits and it will preclude their abilities to benefit from greater profits when the advertising recovery occurs.
There is a place for not-for-profit media and journalism, but H.R. 3602 S. 673 will not do much to improve coverage or the overall condition newspaper industry. It is likely to continue to gain support from the commercial newspaper industry, however, because it can be used to provide cover for government policies that they really want.

By: Bol Garang de Bol
Your Excellency, the President of the Republic of South Sudan, General Salva Kiir
Mayardit, as you may be aware, although our requests, advice, opinions seem to be ignored
by you and your Ministers, we, will not abandon our responsibilities as citizens of South
Sudan to let our voices be heard. I write to you or about you not to attack your policies
or interventions either in the present or in the past. However, on this occasion, I am writing
to you to let you know that many South Sudanese including myself still believe that there
was still South Sudan, our country, which we had once fought for, our freedom, democracy
But where is it now? The aim of this article is to ask you to use your powers and position to
tackle the issue of ethnic cleansing through parliament and in your cabinet.
There are two distinct issues in connection with political turmoil in South Sudan that has
claimed at least estimated 120,000 lives since 2005 and displaced more than 250,000 people.
The failure of government to address corruption and violence that has transmuted into
ethnic cleansing across the country is the biggest issues facing South Sudan. The second
issue has alarmed the entire international community because the world views it as the way
Rwanda genocide began.
Your Excellency, President Salva, over the last seven years, I have always dreamt that one
day, a single God or a group of gods will come and solve South Sudan's problems. In the
process of waiting for these gods, I have realized and even learnt that the New Nation's
biggest problem is the dangerous mind-set of our people, yours and mine inclusive, which
needs no superman to solve because I/we and you can do it.
Ending the political violence and ethnic cleansing must be accorded the top priority for two
reasons or more. First, a stolen verdict can be fixed in a year or two but it will take decades
or a generation to fix a country destroyed by ethnic violence. If, I may recall that the
collapse of South Sudan began in 2005 immediately after the death of Dr. John Garang de
Mabior. The country used to be part of old Sudan has not recovered socially, economically
and politically and it needs estimated number of years to be rebuilt. It is so easy to destroy
but formidable task to rebuild. Second, ignoring ethnic violence is the major threat to nation
security in our country and contributed to the failures of our country. The failure of
government to deliver badly needed services to the people proved that the Republic of South Sudan is not the country we fought for.
Mr. President, General Salva Kiir, during the 22 years of SPLA struggle, you, late Dr. John
Garang, William Nyuon Bany, Dr. Riek Machar, Dr. Lam Akol, Commander, Arok Thon
Arok, James Wani Igga, Kuol Manyang Juuk and many more always talked about an
important country deserves to be liberated. Shall we wait for that country? Or you mean, the
current South Sudan under your leadership is the country we fought for?
If this independent South Sudan is the country we fought for, the past years
since our country signed the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) are characterized by a
pile of disappointing experiences such as; failures, let downs, state/rebel sponsored murders,
torture, rape, forced-sodomy, social neglect and other awful experiences which many South
Sudanese have had to endure, have caused a great deal of anger, hate, revenge-motives and
the dangerous social divisions which exist in our societies. These negative experiences have
and continue to re-affirm old suspicions, doubts in the future, deepen mistrust, shatter hope
and have now started producing even greater despair and this is not the country we
fought for or proud to be citizens.
You and many politicians point at social capitalization as the only way to redeem this
country out of the dark abyss in which it is. And I agree that social factors, most especially
those which are negatively associated with health, cause disorganization and disruption,
perceived helplessness and lack of support, low educational attainment, and poverty. In the
same reasoning, I also posit that you cannot achieve these development goals when the
majority of the people in our communities are angry, revengeful, hateful, and are waiting to
carry-out their unfinished business.
In my opinion, I would argue that whilst there is a need for massive development projects
which we all think that will develop our country, there is a need for all sections of the
society to develop a new relationship which can take account of our importance to each
other and which will also inculcate a reciprocal nature of our connection that will help to
avoid a repeat of the painful past experiences which our people have endured.
Since June 12 1947, at the time of Juba Conference, South Sudan has not had the
opportunity to address their past, neither have they ever addressed the pains it caused them.
Our people have never healed because they have never been given the opportunity to heal.
All they get is the threats of revenge, genocide, and hate by different aggrieved parties.
How can a society with hidden dirty feelings forge a united future without any remorseful
spirit being coached between and amongst them?
President Jaafar Nimeiri used a wrong approach since he took over in a military coup in
1969 by only focusing on security and development and forgetting to help the nation to heal.
President Nimeiri never gave the Sudanese the opportunity to bury the hatchet and to start a
new emotional chapter since the signing of Addis Ababa Agreement in 1972. The same
mistake done by President Nimeiri is facing President Kiir Mayardit. By so doing, the
current development in South Sudan may turn into dust.
Mr. President Salva, the purpose of this letter is to inform you that South Sudan needs an
amnesty law which will help those who have perpetrated injustice to fellow South Sudanese
to apologies and be forgiven unconditionally. This will help South Sudan to draw the line
with their past, open a new chapter in their history and start re-building the nation all over
again. I am fully aware of the expired amnesty law but this law only catered for recent
events yet the grievances of our people pre-date this period.
President Mayardit, to me and other advocates of social justice, it is very challenging ,
to sort out and work through the barriers which exist between the perpetrators of injustice,
their victims, and the social political environment that inhibit progress. This has
increasingly made it difficult for us to turn the painful experiences of our people into
opportunities for growth and change. However, I do have hope that this can happen because
it occurred in South Africa and Kenya during Mau Mau War.
The positive experiences which this amnesty law shall bring will engender hope and trust,
to the people of South Sudan. It will also convey a comforting sense of being understood
and accepted to the changed-perpetrators of injustice. Mr. President, this desire is also true
for people of South Sudan who keep asking questions about their experiences and getting
no answers from the perpetrators of injustice. At the same time, the perpetrators of injustice
are very insecure and in one way of the other, their insecurity even drives them to carry out
more injustice out of fear that people are out there waiting to kill them.
I do have a strong belief that healing will be brought about by the kind of forgiveness
which will be protected by the amnesty law. By making such a huge political intervention,
we will be able to address other issues such as health and social inequalities. At the same
time, we have to be mindful that if we do not support healing through forgiveness, we shall
be fuelling the continuous cycle of political and military abuse of our people's human rights.
It will be of paramount importance for our country and for all men and women of good will if
my request meets your consideration. As such, the outright denial of bail for certain
offences would constitute a fundamental breach of human rights which accord equal
protection of the law to all.
Lastly your Excellency, to add rioting to the list of the category of offences that should not
be granted bail, assuming that all persons who may choose to peacefully demonstrate and
voice opinion on matters affecting them are criminals. This will have the net effect of
deterring South Sudan from exercising their fundamental human right to freedom to
assemble and to demonstrate together with others peacefully.
The Executive arm of government, in simple term, your Ministers must respect and
uphold the rule of law and that all organs of the Government are independent and free from
interference. The Government has to ensure that all criminal cases are dully investigated,
prosecuted and that individual criminal responsibility is apportioned impartially without
undue regard to an accused person's political inclination. This will go a long way in
eliminating impunity and will deter the wanton abuse of human rights by state and non-state

There's no shortage of ski lodges in this country, but choosing one usually means foregoing something, whether it's a variety of ski options or worse - all the comforts of home.
But this year, a new partnership between Canadian Rocky Mountain Resorts and Purcell Mountain Lodge means you get to experience three different ski lodges from lakeshore to mountain peaks in one amazing week. Moreover, staying at these lodges doesn't involve any hardship.
Emerald Lake Lodge
The magic begins at this historic property nestled in the Rocky Mountains in Yoho National Park. Originally built by Canadian Pacific Railway as a summer destination for people who loved to hike and paddle, it was purchased by Canadian Rocky Mountain Resorts and extensively renovated before reopening in 1986. The family-owned company replaced the old bungalows with chalet-style cabins and restored the main lodge to its previous rustic appeal. Stone fireplaces, wingback chairs, a bar from the Yukon's Gold Rush days, and a billiards table of similar vintage are some of its charms.
Winter visitors don't get to admire Emerald Lake's namesake colour, it's true, but they get something else: the deep, muffled silence of a snow-covered landscape. And when we visited in mid-January we had the lodge and outdoor hot tub under the stars almost to ourselves. Many visitors seemed to be day-trippers, coming to ski on the groomed cross-country trails that circle the lake and wind through the forest to the town of Field, 12 kilometres away.
An afternoon on skis left us famished and eagerly anticipating dinner in the Mt. Burgess dining room, recently ranked one of the '101 Best Hotel Restaurants Around the World' by The Daily Meal.
Canadian Rocky Mountain Resorts pioneered Rocky Mountain cuisine, an approach that combines the lavish menus of the old railway days with local foods used by aboriginal people, including wild game, mushrooms and berries.
The result? Seriously satisfying dishes such as braised buffalo short ribs with sautéed chanterelles in a red wine reduction or - for starters - a charcuterie platter including smoked buffalo, prosciutto, duck breast, game pate, elk salami, cheese and homemade relish.
Canadian Rocky Mountain Resorts sources caribou from northern Quebec. Elk and bison come from the company's own ranch south of Calgary, where the animals are raised on pasture yearround and without hormones or antibiotics.
Purcell Mountain Lodge
I've toyed with the idea of backcountry skiing for years, but the thought of being caught in an avalanche has been a powerful deterrent. Plus, many backcountry lodges are a little too rustic - I'm past hauling water to cook, for instance.
Then I discovered Purcell Mountain Lodge. "This is a hotel in the middle of nowhere," said lodge manager and professional ski guide Doug
Latimer, showing us around after a spectacular 15-minute helicopter flight from Golden.
The compact main lodge boasts 10 bedrooms and four bathrooms upstairs (with fluffy white towels and bathrobes, no less), while downstairs there's a dining room, living room with fireplace, drying room and a modern kitchen where the chef turns out hearty meals.
A separate chalet dubbed the Honeymoon Suite offers extra privacy.
Best of all, this comfort doesn't come at a cost to the pristine environment.
Even though the lodge is 25 years old, its self-contained sewage treatment plant and small hydroelectrical system are "still the gold standard," says Latimer.
We certainly have no complaints about the lodging, but what about those pesky avalanches?"My standard of care is 'would I take my son out there?' " Latimer tells us our first morning.
He also shares that the Canadian Avalanche Centre has just issued a special avalanche alert due to the unstable snow conditions.
"So we're staying inside and playing monopoly?" I ask hopefully.
Wrong. A good backcountry lodge can put together a safe ski program for guests regardless of the conditions, Latimer assures me.
Over the next three days he does just that. Five of us ski across windswept plateaus with magnificent views of the Selkirk Mountains. We hear the thunder of falling ice in nearby Glacier National Park. We whoop joyfully down a forested glade in thigh-high powder. We breathe in the resinous scent of fir trees, ski beside a babbling brook trimmed with sparkling snow, sip hot tea in the shelter of a snowdrift and wonder whether we might just be in Hawaii, the sun on our faces is that warm. And we do it all safely.
Buffalo Mountain Lodge
We spend our last night at another Canadian Rocky Mountain Resort - this one in Banff atop Tunnel Mountain.
Like the restaurants in its sister lodges, Sleeping Buffalo offers a distinctive menu of Rocky Mountain cuisine and a wine list that has repeatedly won The Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence.
But it's the post and beam architecture I'll remember most about Buffalo Mountain Lodge, which carries through to our room. It's so cosy with its feather duvet, wood-burning fireplace, old-fashioned claw-footed bathtub and heated slate bathroom floor that we don't want to leave, not even to ski. So we don't. The next day we arrange for a late checkout and lounge in our pyjamas until it's finally time to go. Downhill and cross-country skiing at nearby Mt. Norquay, Sunshine Village and Lake Louise will just have to wait for another time.
Alpine escape packages
Canadian Rocky Mountain Resorts and Purcell Mountain Lodge offer two more Lake to Peaks Alpine Escape packages this year: April 2-8 and April 9-15 with more to come next year. Rates start at $2,100 per person, plus tax and include minimum six nights accommodation, most meals, helicopter flights and guided skiing at Purcell Mountain Lodge.
For more information: Visit crmr.com/lake-to-peaks-alpineescape or phone: 1-403-410-7417 Toll-free: 1 866-929-3636 Email info: email@example.com
The three lodges can also be booked separately: crmr.com/emerald/purcellmountainlodge.com and crmr.com/buffalo/Rentals:
Wilson Mountain Sports in Lake Louise offers top quality ski rentals. For backcountry, ask for their Scarpa boots and Dynafit TLT Radical FT Bindings, considered by experienced skiers to be the best on the market today. wmsll.com
