The least wonderful time of the year - Oosouji / 大掃除
It was smooth crooner Andy Williams who sang the iconic Christmas line, "It's the most wonderful time of the year." in his festive tune of the same name. While I agree with Andy for the most part, being from the U.K. Christmas still maintains its status as the most wonderful time of the year, even living in Japan as I reach the early afternoon of my days. Still, Japan does its best to put a dampener on festivities by declaring that December is the best time of the year to do a spring clean. In Japan - oosouji / 大掃除. Quite literally - "big clean."
Personally, I think December in the northern hemisphere is emphatically the worst time of the year to be doing a spring clean. To put it simply, it's too sodding cold and I've grown up with the custom of the festive season being exactly the time of year when you cast aside concerns of health, cleanliness, vigorous activity and purification. Christmas is the time to hibernate in front of the tele, stuff yourself to the point of immobility, drink and play board games.
It's surely only spiritual custom that can make opening all the windows to one's abode on a frigid cold day as you scrub floors with a damp and dirty old rag seem like a good idea. And it still doesn't seem like a good idea to me. I have a Japanese partner though, and if we know anything about the Japanese it's that they like to follow the roles assigned to each season.
OK so some of the reasoning behind oosouji / 大掃除 in Japan has a touch of romance about it; getting things clean to start a new year afresh, and having the place spic and span ready for a visit from Shinto deity Toshigami (年神). After about an hour of it though, oosouji feels about as romantic as a punch in the face.
We did our "spring clean" on Sunday. I was in charge of the windows which, given that we live close to Tokyo Bay, build up a steady coating of salty air over the course of the year. You could just about eat your dinner off them now though, although that status will change by about … tomorrow. The partner takes control of the kitchen and then the rest of the crib is shared. Thankfully we clean the bathroom pretty regularly and, overall, keep on top of the house cleaning as a whole. I still hate doing it though, and it remains the worst day of the year in Japan for me.
That being said, I think winter is better than summer for this sort of task and even if it was held (Yes, oosouji / 大掃除 in Japan is like an event) on a fine spring day, I'd probably moan the case that it would be better to do this in winter rather than waste a good day for going out. You can't win, can you?
Anyway, I can now feel smug about having gotten oosouji out of the way early doors and can look forward to putting up the Christmas tree and getting on with what Andy Williams calls, "The most wonderful time of the year."
Anyone out there doing oosouji? Maybe you'd like to listen to a bit of Andy as you do? Oh, and yes, we use マジッククリン (magiclean) for just about everything when it comes to this kind of work.

i have always wondered why they did it in winter! I knew the new year thing,but honestly new year is more in spring with school and the fiscal start in april. I do get a small desire to clean during winter only because the husband loves to use a gas stove and i HAVE to open everything to feel like i can breath
Maybe it's a good way to burn off some energy on a day that's too dreary to bother going out? I've been in the mood to clean and declutter for some reason, so I go with it. Using the good old vinegar and baking soda does the trick for me. Better to get it over with and leave more time for the eating and board games later in the month!
@edthethe - Those gas stoves! We used to have one of those but it made me feel slightly nauseous. Glad we got rid of it.
@helloalissa This is true. It certainly burned off some energy and I'm glad to have gotten it out of the way quite early.

Agencies: Bernalillo County Sheriff's Department New Mexico
Last updated: 7 months ago
A deputy-involved shooting in Sandia Park Sunday night ended with one man dead.
Bernalillo County Sheriff Dan Houston held a news conference from the East Area Command Center Sunday detailing the events leading up to the fatal shooting. Houston said John Chavez, 54, was shot at a home at 396 La Madera Road in Sandia Park shortly after 7 p.m.
Six to seven deputies were called to that home at 4:45 pm, after Chavez's ex-wife called 911 saying that her ex-husband was threatening suicide.
When deputies arrived, Houston said deputies starting negotiating with Chavez. During negotiations Chavez went inside his home and armed himself with a high-powered rifle.
Beasley was standing behind Chavez when he shot him, Williamson said. He did not know whether Beasley used his BCSO-issued pistol or his AR-15 assault-style rifle, and he did not know where the single shot entered Chavez's body.

Within a week of Multiyork's collapse another furniture retailer, Feather & Black, are facing closure, with 123 jobs at stake. Feather & Black have the same owners as Multiyork. Even though the administrators, Duff & Phelps, say they are confident a buyer will be found, they can give no guarantee. Once again the suppliers will be uncertain as to whether they will be paid.
Duff & Phelps
Mr Graham, one of the administrators for Duff & Phelps reported many retailers had been hit by the slowdown in consumer spending. The main rate of inflation is currently 3%, which is the highest level for five-and-a-half years.
"With inflation rising faster than wages, consumers are beginning to feel the pinch and have cut back on their household budgets," Mr Graham added.
He said the tough trading conditions meant that Feather and Black "could no longer meet its ongoing liabilities".
The liabilities are made up of:
- Trade creditors (Suppliers)
- Bank loans
- Overdrafts
- Mortgages
How vital is credit insurance?
No one likes uncertainty, especially business owners. When you run your business you control all aspects of the company. So why should your trade debtor be any different? Credit insurance is primarily a protection against the risk of non-payment from your customers. A non-payment or bad debt can be caused by insolvency, administration or cash flow problems. As you know, business won is only good when the cash is actually received!
Another benefit is the ability to access up-to-date credit information on your customers as the credit insurers often know something is amiss before the press, public and companies house. The knowledge gained then points you in the direction of secure companies to trade with and therefore supports actual growth.

Steve Davis "Lalune Blanche" 1970 RAC Records
This is one of the best record I have heard by a guy I've never heard of. Sonically this project is mature, fat, but never crowded. The songs are varied in style, dancing in the space between the major genres (rock, soul, country, jazz) without ever really landing on any one of them long enough to be branded.
The hip-hop duo Gangstarr sampled the cut "It's All Because You Are Gone" on Daily Operation. I am surpised that other groups have not taken riffs from this gem. Every song I heard had something good...either a breakdown, a fat bass line, or some cool horns. This LP was made to be sampled--with the drums and bass being isolated to the left stereo channel and the horns and vocals landing moreso on the right. It is easy to gram clean snipets.
The song in the video clip, "Lalune Blanche" has been featured on many rare groove compilations. As for the other great songs...I have only really heard them played on the LP I had bought at a yard sale years ago.
The Cover is simple, yet very artistic. There is lots of information on the back...just not enough for me to figure out who the hell Steve Davis was and what other projects he had during the same period. The search continues.....

Land of the Long Black
I've been home a week now, regaining my hemispheric equilibrium, contemplating the second draft of the Viking epic, and wondering about the shape of my life. The office feels more distant than ever, a miniature corporate diorama observed through the wrong end of a telescope. I don't remember the lights being so . . . fluorescent. My house is cluttered and leaden, full of things I don't use or need, things I can't carry with me. The local highways, eerily empty upon our early-morning return, confound me. How do I get from A to B?
I've always been a creature of structure and routine. Each day begins with The Coffee Ritual, a meticulous way of producing a simple cup of press-pot coffee, taken black. This is my preferred style, but in
Funny how something as simple as coffee can remain a constant across continents and time zones, a touchstone of familiarity and longing, something to hold onto when the world feels foreign. And now The Coffee Ritual points irrevocably back the other way to my brief sojourn in the Land of the Long White Cloud.

I am beginning to write my memoirs at the moment and I would like to source a few photos from the 1970s for illustrations in my book. I came home from Panguna with a shoebox full of picturess but two failed marriages later I'm left with just memories (no pictures). I think one of the darlings burnt the lot (as they do), so I will be asking you for permission to copy from your website a few relevant shots.
Thank you for keeping Bougainville alive in our hearts. I really was excited when I stumbled across your site.
Will send you a short story of my time on Buka very soon.

Went to nursery school for an entire week.
At the end of the second week of school my mother received a call asking if I would be returning after not going for a week.
The call surprised my mother.
That entire week she had put me out at the end of the driveway with my older sister - snack bag in hand.
Each morning that week I waited for my sister's bus to pick her up. Then, went and hid under the front porch until the nursery school bus rolled back down the street around noon.
My mother freaked. When she asked why I didn't go to school. I explained that we had the same games and toys at home. Plus, I didn't have to share a swing set at home.
She gave in on sending me to nursery school, and waited until the next year when my sister and I took the same bus.
Mom made her hold onto my hand until I was on the bus.

Yeah, it's still an amazing product. Easily one of the best efforts ever done for the AES community. It's about time somebody made a real converter, not a half-assed job.
Since I have MVS mobos and just one AES, I'd never have a need for this. Even if I did, I'd be fine with modding one of the cheaper converters. $400 can go towards a nice TV or something.

JuneauEmpire.com: Local: Rush is on as dividend deadline drops 03/31/05
Today is the last day to file for the 2005 Alaska Permanent Fund dividend.
The Permanent Fund Dividend Division is expecting 70,000 Alaskans to file today - 60,000 by paper and 10,000 online.
"Every year, we see a big spike in the last week, with the biggest one on March 31," said Paul Dick, chief of operations of the division. "The deadline is the motivator for some people."
The division projects about 631,000 people will have applied for the 2005 dividend. The state will announce the amount of the 2005 dividend Sept. 21.
Last year the division denied 1,300 dividend applications because of late filing.

As we had the Thursday to do what we wanted we took a trip out to Dulverton on the edge of Exmoor We'd been there before a few years ago in the autumn so we were interested to see it in the better weather. We approached it over the bridge, parking just passed it.
It's a very pretty little place with several walks starting there, but we'd not the time to walk apart from through the main street.
We immediately got caught up in the second-hand book shop,
and David was delighted to find a model railway of Dulverton station and surrounding area in the building next to it.
You can read more about the exhibition here.
Too soon our time ran out and we returned to the van for lunch before going in a different direction to Exeter in order to meet our friends.
With an early start the next morning, we were down on our usual pitch on Higher Harlyn looking out over Trevose Head by 11-30am.
At this point the site was very quiet. We got ourselves unpacked, awning up and were all sorted when Charlotte arrived with Nina and a friend's little boy who she was looking after. Looking out of the caravan window was a great game.
(We've pictures of Charlotte and our godson David doing exactly the same when they were little)
As the day went on the pitches began to fill, with more arriving on the Saturday morning. What was quite striking this year was that there were so many tents and my goodness they were so big!. By the end of Saturday the hook-up rows seemed really full due to the big tents. However that didn't bothered us, as if you have been reading my blog for a while you will know we meet up with very special friends and along with all our family have a 'French Sunday lunch on a Saturday'. That basically means lots of lovely food and the odd glass of wine (who am I trying to kid?)
This year I had decided to make the salads and some rather pretty little individual cheesecakes down there.
It's only now writing this that I realise I have no pictures of the finished food, however here we are eating it
Not a lot happens after that lunch and the afternoon drifts into the evening and G&T time!
We woke on Sunday to another lovely day so it was a packed lunch and down to the beach until we were caught by the incoming tide.
We joined forces for a BBQ down at the 'posh' van our friends were staying in
and it was just warm enough to sit out to eat
We woke to another lovely day on Monday and it was more of the same with the day finishing with a wonderful sunset.
And so the week went on. Jonathan arrived
We had taken our friend's girls to meet him and then we took them to the Kernow chocolate factory which is very near to Charlotte's house
and then it was down to Treyanon for more beach time.
It was Becky and Tom's turn to arrive the next morning (we got to know Newquay airport very well by the end of the holiday). Nina got a belated birthday present which went down very well.
The week was flying by and we had a photo shoot booked for the whole family on the Thursday and hurray! it was sunny again. We met on my favourite beach - Constantine
and the fun began. The pictures were amazing here are a couple or maybe more than a couple, but not the 177 that Rix took!
I just adore the last one!
Some more beach time and jumping off Cellar's rock followed
and to finish the day - tapas for 11, most made in the 2 caravans.
Friday was glorious again and rather than spend it sat on the beach we chose to take the ferry to Rock but not before lunch in the Basement.
We queued briefly for the ferry
and were taken quickly across the estuary.
We walked towards Daymer Bay until a suitable spot was found for kite flying
and a comfortable dip in the sand dunes for sitting
When we all got too hot we turned round to walk back to Rock and found a free table at the Mariners
Back over on the ferry and we met Charlotte, Angus and Nina at Bin2. It was beginning to feel like one long pub crawl!
We finished the day with one of the best beach bbq's we've had. The weather was perfect, the tide was out and the company excellent.
Some went home the next day but we had just 24 hours more which we made the most of.
The End

Lately there were many controversies about the effects of soy milk, especially regarding the common concern whether this milk can cause some serious consequences to everyday health. In today's market, soy is considered a wonder product. It is perfect for any diet program, and the nutritionists support the information that consuming soy can help you lose weight faster than usual. In a great number of cases, people that are in desperate need to change their eating habits, and their everyday nutrition, often exchange the high calorie food items for soy. Due to its low calorie characteristic, soy is the member of the group called 'fat burners', healthy food items that support your body and help your body burn fat easier.
The studies about soy milk and all the soy products are ambiguous, some give strong evidence supporting and highlighting its benefits, while recent studies are warning people on numerous dangers when using soy products. Ever since soy came to the market, experts are highlighting its importance; the truth is that soy is rich in vitamins B1, B2, B6 and E, even though it is highly low on calcium. Since soy milk is produced out of soybean, it is rich in fiber and proteins, though it does not quite taste as good as cow milk, many regard soy milk a better and a healthier solution.
The reason why so many began to doubt the benefits of soy milk is the consistency of some highly harmful substances. These components can be found in most of the seeds. The soy needs to be fermented to lose most of its harmful items, and even then no one can vouch that soy and soy products are completely safe. This fact was not made public, and for various reasons, mainly because of the market, no expert can safely claim which is healthier, soy or cow milk. If you believe that cow milk contains no harmful ingredients, think again. If you are the one in control of that particular cow, whose milk you will be drinking, and you are given some clear evidence that the food administrated to that exact cow is not filled with hormones and illegal substances, only then you are safe. Unless you own that cow, there is not even a slightest chance that you are in control. Unlike cow milk, soy milk can never have any trace of the similar highly dangerous components, but the truth is that soy contains some other substances not equally bad, however still bad. To avoid the danger, doctors strictly draw attention to a certain groups of people prohibited from taking any soy products, like the people allergic to soy, pregnant and nursing women, and persons who have been treated for cancer.
The truth is that people tend to exaggerate from time to time, so if we are going to be smart about it, we should take into consideration just the half out of the entire commotion, and simply discard the rest. Most definitely there are some harmful substances in soy and soy milk, however these are still not in the dosage of alarming. You should consume all the soy products, especially soy milk if you are lactose intolerant, however avoiding too much consumption is highly recommended. Not one single item is good if you indulge in it too much; just stick to your regular dosage and you will be more than just fine. If you are still having second thoughts, then you should only take the fermented soy products, the experts claim that these products have been cleared out of any harmful items.

I am a little late on the resolution front, but I have had one rolling around in my head since after Christmas and I have been taking time to formulate it.
I am now officially halfway through this insane experience called law school and it is a doozy. I can go from feeling like I! can! do! this! to wanting to crawl into a hole and die in the same day, hour, minute, what have you. And for the last year and a half this rollercoaster has been my life. With bits of fun and family and friends on the side.
My New Years resolution is to find balance. Balance between law school and the rest of my life. I tend to get bogged down in the nitty gritty of school and forget that at the end of all of this life will go on. I will either become a lawyer or I won't and I need to still have the rest of my life intact either way the chips fall.
I need to find balance to keep myself sane. Permitting myself to have tunnel vision when it comes to law school leads to far too many close calls when it comes to panicking about the future. I need to blink and see that there is more than studying and memorizing and climbing the never-ending ladder of internships.
Law school is a huge part of my life right now and necessarily my focus. But that doesn't mean that the rest of my life has ceased to exist. I need to focus my energies on law school without letting my life be law school.
What does this look like? It is letting myself enjoy what is happening in the moment. It is not fretting that whatever I am doing at the time should be studying. It is spending time with my family on the weekends. It is becoming more involved in my church. It is giving myself an hour once a week to actually be present in Bible Study.
Over the holidays I was reminded of all that I have – all that I love outside of law school.
With all this in my life – I can't afford to have let law school become my reason for being. So here's to 2012, a year of balance.

The ElastiCube Manager enables easy and quick access to tables contained within Google Analytics. The steps below describe how to connect to this type of data source.
Note: Google Analytics provides a quota on the free daily API requests. For this reason a developer key must be supplied. Read more details about Quota Limits.
- Click Add Data in the top menu of the ElastiCube Manager.
- Under the Web Services category, select Google Analytics.
- You will be prompted to enter the following information:
- Email: Enter email associated with your Google Analytics account.
- Auth Code: Google requires an authetication code to enable access from the ElastiCube to data associated with a Google Analytics account (site name and profile IDs). To attain the Auth code click on the link Get Auth Code. The browser will open and you will need to sign in to your Google Analytics account. After signing in, click on the 'Allow access' button. This will generate a temporary code that you must paste into the Auth Code text box in the connection window.
- Date Range: Select the date range of the analytics data you require.
- Click Connect to display a list of available websites the list box below.
- Select the relevant website that you want to work with, and click OK.
- All tables and views associated with the website appear in a new window.
- Select the checkbox next to each table you want to use.
Existing relationships between tables can be automatically replicated in the ElastiCube by selecting the Automatically create relationships from database checkbox. Likewise fields with similar names can be linked by selecting the Automatically create relationships for fields with the same name checkbox.
- Once all relevant tables are selected, click Add.
See Customizing Google Analytics and AdWords Tables for in-depth info on controlling your Google Analytics tables.
Avoiding Sampling in Google Analytics
Google Analytics applies sampling whenever more than 500,000 sessions are returned within a given query. For example, if we are asking for a 1-month time period that had 1,000,000 session in it, Google will apply sampling and we will only get 50% of the actual sessions. Whereas in some cases sampling might only slightly affect the results accuracy, it many cases it is crucial.
Sisense supports three configuration options to reduce the chances of sampling:
- Split Intervals – A Google Analytics table can be configured to be split into a number of given intervals. For example, if intervals=4, then a one month period will be split into 4 query requests equal in days.
- Day Intervals – A Google Analytics table can be configured to be split into multiple intervals where each is the size of the given number of days. For example, if day_intervals=10, then a 30 day time period will be split into 3 intervals.
- Segmenting Data – A segment is a subset of your data. You can use predefined segments to work around Google's sampling limitations. For more information, see Segment Google Analytics Data.
Since Google limitations are applied separately per request, this reduces the risk of overall sampling.
Configuring Google Analytics sampling intervals
Edit the following xml file (if it doesn't exist, create it):
The xml file needs to have a table node for each table, under a tables root:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<table name="MyGoogleAnalyticsTable" days_interval="2" split_by="10"/>
For Split Intervals as described above use the "split_by" attribute. For Day Intervals use the "days_interval" attribute.
Note that only one of these attributes should be used. "split_by" will be used in case both are available.
It is easy to estimate the amount of sessions your account generates from your Google Analytics account:

The Andosini, a tribe subdued by Hannibal in 218 BC, are the first recorded inhabitants of the Pyrenean state of Andorra. In the 9th century the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles II, reputedly made the bishop of Seo de Urgel overlord of Andorra. The Paréage of 1278 placed Andorra under the joint suzerainty of the bishop of Seo de Urgel and the Comte de Foix. The rights vested in the house of Foix passed by marriage to that of Bearn and, on the accession of Henri IV, to the French crown.

Emulating Shahid Khan...
For all the animus Indians have on Pakistanis (and vice versa), there are lessons to be learned everywhere in the sense that any rational Indian (or Pakistani) would want some curious incidents emulated. Shahid Khan has owned the Jacksonville Jaguars football team for more than a year now. An UI graduate, Shahid, has most likely inaugurated the Jags' worst season on record (I expect it to finish 2-14 as the Pats visit next, followed by a trip to Nashville). And given that Florida is known not only for its pregnant chads and hanging chads, but also two other floopy chads on the gridiron -- Pennington and Henne, that 2-14 mark was a foregone conclusion. Even though alluring, I hope the Jags dont waste their impending first pick at the draft with Geno Smith or worse, Matt Barkley and pick someone like Manti Te'o instead. That said, whatever be the Jags' pick, it is not hard to bet on the rise of the Jags in the coming few years.
All this background begs the question: why is the ownership of the Jags worthy of emulation by the Indian and/or Pakistani expat community?
1) While Shahid is a part of the visible revolution in ownership of mega-sports franchises in the US coming in the not-so-long-line of African-American and Latina/o celebrity owners of the recent past (Jay-Z, Usher, Jennifer Lopez, Will Smith, and so on), he is nevertheless a potent symbol that the symbols of what make Entertainment America, Inc., are available for sale to the highest bidder provided some "home"-ownership caveats* are not bruised in the process.
2) Owning franchises is a self-contradictory proposition. It is rare to see winning money-making franchises put up for sale. Packs, Yanks, Pats, Dodgers, no they are not about to be sold anytime soon. But, even losing franchises gain in capital value over time. This is because there are very few franchises around (even fewer marquee franchises) and a large number of suitors (glamorous and not-so-glamorous) fishing for them -- either for vanity or for business or for any of the gazillion reasons one can conjure up (tax benefits, possibly). The classical supply-demand mismatch means that the asset value bubbles up over time with more and more money chasing the elusive ownership tag. Thus, the owner makes the biggest profit when he/she gives up a part of the/the whole stake in the franchise and ergo, no longer commands the franchise.
3) Often time, franchise-buyers coax out sweetheart deals on stadia/merchandising from the City that looks up to the franchise for circulating the local economy. While some cities such as LA can see spikes in green-nik protesting in the process of bringing a football franchise "back home," almost every other City could care less about environmental regulations and other jazz as long as the local unemployment rate is held under a cap. Some of these stadia/merchandising sweetheart deals accrue tangible benefits as the real-estate market bubbles up, an eventuality that is a given in a mid- to big-City in the medium- to long-term.
4) Noone in the US loves a losing team. So all that said, when bought, it is difficult to steer a losing franchise to winning on the field and help it make money for the investments put in. It is also difficult to get the professional players to play for pride when millions of $ float around and every concussion is valued in terms of the $ lost rather than in terms of certain death at 40s. Its even more difficult to get the City going nuts over a franchise and building a Black-Hole, or a cheesehead club, or a Jerry World. Every entrepreneur worthy his/her salt loves such a challenge. Its a better challenge than being the CEO of a Fortune-500 company, because it is his/her own money at stake and not of the stockholders (not always).
5) Franchise owners form a club of exclusivity and he/she gets to hobnob with the fellow-travelers in this weird journey. While owning a franchise does not get a free-pass from the security drills the TSA puts in, it does get attention from the people who make the news and the views, even if they are of the TMZ variety. The constant gripe of the Indian community that they do not get adequate attention of the powers-that-be relative to the houbara-hunting-facilitators across the border can only be resolved by playing the power game in all its dirty glory.
*The caveats mentioned above are all-powerful and make America what it is (today). It would be implausible to imagine the town of Green Bay ever giving up on their team -- the entire population up north of the Rockford Line and part of the W in the Paul Bunyan's Axe is going to bubble up and un-winterize the Frozen Tundra. Nor are some rivalries going to go away -- Red Sox-Yanks, Packs-Bears, Colts-Pats, etc. So a Rams-type team is not going to run away from LA every other day. Nor will a virtual non-entity be allowed to bid, let alone win a bid. Even less so if that non-entity is from Third World country with no antecedents of the game, ever. Thus, it is not surprising that Wayne Weaver was so embarrassed by the Shahid Khan-bid for Jags that he offered Shahid to pass the bid on. Shahid did not, and therein lies the message that needs to be hit in 24-ct gold.

After many years of voting for and supporting Eric Cantor, enough is enough.
How many times over the last 14 years that we have sent him to Washington have we heard him promise to balance the budget, pay down the debt, stop Obamacare, bla, bla, bla.
In 14 years Eric Cantor has voted to increase the debt $14 Trillion. He is costing us a trillion dollars each year he has been in Congress.
And his supporters are deaf, dumb and blind. He has funded Obamacare every chance he has had.
So I wrote and produced this song and video dedicated to his supporters that act like a bunch of zombies and continue to write checks for a guy that is wrong more than the weatherman.
I hope you enjoy this and wake up a few Eric Cantor zombies.

Off Season is a character based crime thriller with strong political undercurrents and the theme of inter-generational disparity.
Let's change how films are made
Instead of Independent films being financed by big studios, spending ages going through the festival circuit before being released in barely any cinemas and then on overpriced DVD's and Blu Rays we think there's a better way. Off Season will be made entirely by people who love original filmmaking based around thematically rich character studies, that love independent cinema and that are fans of our previous film Recovery.
Pay what it's worth.
Recovery is our debut film. Funded entirely independently we have now made the film available completely free for everyone to view on this page. Once you've seen the film please contribute whatever you think the film is worth to this kickstarter.
Off Season
Off Season is the story of a young man named Jacob living in modern Blackpool. Unable to craft any kind of future for himself in a landscape of rapidly vanishing opportunities and failing institutions he has turned to a life of petty crime, addiction and cheap sex. Set in the immediate aftermath of Brexit we follow as Jacob falls under the sway of Archie, a demagogue who has fashioned himself a champion of the left behind working class, as he attempts a hostile takeover of the city's underworld.
We have the full cast and crew ready to go and have fully costed and planned out the film shoot. Recovery was made with a budget of £2,500.00. The experience of making this film means that we can make quality films cost effectively. With £300,000.00 we will make an outstanding film that can easily stand shoulder to shoulder with a film of any budget.
Included in this budget is all the equipment, the money for the locations, every member of the cast and crew's wages and every costume and prop. We will shoot throughout March and April and then take three months on post production. Once we have finished we will upload the film on YouTube.
Our Promise to you.
We will never try to profit from Off Season and the film will be on YouTube for free for anyone to enjoy, forever.
Risks and challenges
For the scale and ambition of Off Season £300,000.00 is a tight budget however having made Recovery at a hundredth of the budget we are confident that we could overcome any potential challenges in getting this film made.

Way to "Go"
Funeral home laid out fan in front of TV/ Associated Press
Posted: July 6, 2005PITTSBURGH (AP) - James Henry Smith was a zealous Pittsburgh Steelers fan in life, and even death could not keep him from his favorite spot: in a recliner, in front of a TV showing his beloved team in action.Smith, 55, of Pittsburgh, died of prostate cancer Thursday. Because his death wasn't unexpected, his family was able to plan for an unusual viewing Tuesday night.
The Samuel E. Coston Funeral Home erected a small stage in a viewing room, and arranged furniture on it much as it was in Smith's home on game day Sundays.
Smith's body was on the recliner, his feet crossed and a remote in his hand. He wore black and gold silk pajamas, slippers and a robe. A pack of cigarettes and a beer were at his side, while a high-definition TV played a continuous loop of Steelers highlights.
"I couldn't stop crying after looking at the Steeler blanket in his lap," said his sister, MaryAnn Nails, 58. "He loved football and nobody did (anything)* until the game went off. It was just like he was at home."
Longtime friend Mary Jones called the viewing "a celebration."
"I saw it and I couldn't even cry," she said. "People will see him the way he was."
Smith's burial plans were more traditional - he'll be laid to rest in a casket.
* Three guesses for what "(anything)" really was.

Instead, a city representative will be sent to the meeting of Washington County Health Systems - the hospital's parent company - to listen and take notes, just as system officials attended a meeting last week at which city consultants raised questions about the hospital's application with the state to relocate.
The city has asked the Maryland Health Care Commission to deny the hospital's request for a certificate of need for the move outside the city to hospital-owned property on Robinwood Drive next to the medical center.

Police arrested human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell when he unfurled a West Papuan flag as the Indonesian President's limousine departed Westminster Abbey this afternoon.
Tatchell was wrestled to the ground by the President's bodyguards and then arrested by Metropolitan Police officers. He had been planning to attempt a citizen's arrest of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono during his State Visit to the UK.
"The President stands accused of war crimes in East Timor and West Papua," said Mr Tatchell, who is Director of the human rights organisation, the Peter Tatchell Foundation.
"It is appalling that the Royal Family and the Prime Minister are hosting a man who is implicated in mass murder.
"I was arrested for a peaceful, lawful protest, which involved nothing more sinister than holding a flag. I was also threatened with further charges for "shouting loudly" the words "Free West Papua" and for what one police officer described as "pointing your finger at me in a way that I find intimidating."
"I am saddened that some police officers apparently have no respect for freedom of expression and the right to peaceful protest.
"I was detained unlawfully and deprived of my liberty for two hours. After being taken to Charring Cross police station, I was eventually released without charge. Clearly, the police knew they had over-stepped the mark and that the charges against me were baseless," he said.

The count down for the start of the New Year is beginning. It's only a few days away and I'm in a constant jittery state of anticipation. Eva was complaining about the hype that comes along with the New Year this morning. It's just another .Why wait for a New Year to do the things that you plan to do?
I guess for me at least another year has a sense of monumental hope. It's like a brand new notebook and you can gladly throw away last year's notebook. There's a sense of finality in saying good bye to the old year. As if you can burn it, along with the ashes of bitterness, depression, hurt, and heart break. I clutch my own list of New Year Resolution's to me possessively both mentally and physically. When I'm frustrated, I visualize that list with its vague almost abstract desires and run through them. I know what they mean. I know what I wish for. I know what I want to achieve. I just have to get there, so I take a deep breath, paste a smile, and exude the bubbly charm that I know I'm capable of. As if the person frustrating me were a pack of pins I could bowl over with a smile and carefully chosen words. There's a state of barely contained exuberance inside me, a Joie de Vivre, very much like a bubble that expands as I try to contain it within me. I'm struggling to keep my heart full of it and to hold on to that feeling for as long as I can.
Today while walking past the fridges at Union Coop that kept the Ornamin C and Red Bull, the gust of air conditioned wind brushed against me. I had a sudden memory of my grandfather sitting down next to me during lunch time and his gnarled tanned hands squeezing a mango on rice. I remembered how he dyed his beard on a little table and chair by the porch. I remembered the way his grizzly goatee scratched my cheek as he kissed me with a chuckle. I remembered how he always smelled of tobacco and how he sprayed Romance perfume. There was a sense of peace just sitting next to him early in the morning, feeling a slight chill in the air while a rooster crowed in the distance. The other day in Yoga class as the class was ending; there was this moment in the dark studio. The sunlight poured through the window. It warmed my arms. It dazzled my eyes so I closed them and in the distance I heard a rooster crow and it just took me back to that place of safety and peace.
There were no explosions, no New Year's Eve miracles, at least not yet. There was just me focusing on my breath and extremely aware of my body aching in protest at the Yoga poses I put it through after hibernating for so long. I was alive and grateful, simply to exist within my own skin. To hear my heart beat slowing down after pounding in my ears a few minutes ago. I felt a rush of love coursing through me for the world around me and the abundance within it.
I felt that rush again in belly dancing class. None of us knew the steps. All of us struggled to catch up with our beautiful willowy teacher and the easy way with which she moved her hips. All of us felt gawky and clumsy as we stumbled to the steps. I caught sight of myself in the mirror, scowling, because I kept missing the beats. I ended up grinning as I saw the girls behind me all with similar expressions of dismay and insecurity. There was that rush of love and forgiveness again for myself, for the girls, and most of all a sense of camaderie. What's wrong with looking foolish if we're having fun? What's wrong with looking foolish if there is joy to be had? If you feel your teacher is passionate and you can feel her joy in every little step, why shouldn't you smile in return? I ended up twirling, skipping, and just for a moment I almost felt like I knew what I was doing. But that's okay too, tomorrow is another day with another challenge.
As I count down the days left till the turn of a New Year, I also count my blessings. I'm grateful for so many things in my life. I'm grateful for my family and my talented eloquent hilariously funny siblings. I'm grateful for my cousins who rock my world with their sweetness. I'm grateful for my friends because at this point in time I can honestly say that the friends in my life are worth having and I am richer in heart and spirit because of them. I love the friends who see through my defenses with gentle and careful intuition. I love the friends who make me laugh harder than I can imagine myself capable of laughing. I love the friends who spend hours analyzing behaviors of people with me and coming with hilariously accurate conclusions. I love friends I have so much in common with wether it's a love of books, languages, or foreign movies.
I'm eternally grateful w el7emdellah Rab el 3alemeeen first and foremost that I have words to express myself with and enough self reflection to understand myself and my loved ones. I read this quote today "Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment." I sincerely believe that a person with no self reflection whatsoever ends up distorting whatever they apply themselves to and never make progress. People are not what they say, but what they do. I sincerely hope this New Year brings a change. I'm not going to say what kind of person I am. I'm going to be that person and let actions speak louder than words. I want to be better than I was yesterday and I want the person I am tomorrow to be better than the one she is today. We've all been given a brand new day, and a brand new year, old stories have no place in them. There is only place for new stories, new hopes, new dreams, new challenges, and a newer me.

A note on Black women "being too accepting of higher weights," most of the studies that even include Black women and media/self-esteem/weight issues, don't seem to understand that because Black women as a group are statistically much larger than White and Asian women, our self-hatred kicks in at higher clothes sizes but those small sizes (say a size 10 for a Black woman, where Black "plus size" models are typically size EIGHT to 12) are, for us as a group, just as unreachable and depressing as say a size 4 or 6 for most "fat" White women. That doesn't make the self-hatred and the hatred we experience from media-empowered, fat-hating folks who think HAES (Health At Every Size) is "haze," any easier/lighter. That doesn't mean that Black women have higher body/self esteem because our reference point is different. That doesn't mean there isn't vicious fat hatred in the Black community...because there is.
Also in the Black community, there are roles (those of service to others with no self-hood, sexiness, beauty, deference or support) for fat Black women such as a race woman, a church woman, a mama to all. But to only be able to get any accolades for being a person without personhood, where even the desire to be loved, pampered, considered beautiful or worthy to be helped or assisted is considered selfish and bad...where now the fact that those who have chosen those roles to have a place at all, are condemned for being "unhealthy" and thus threatening to end their source of service to others supposedly pre-maturely, is not an alternate Black universe where fat is accepted.
I also think that some (most?/nearly all?) Black women may not be entirely honest when we do report to researchers how much we love our fat bodies (or at least without saying how much we have to push back against the fat haters to do that, to breathe, to lift our heads up and live another day) because it seems additionally demoralizing or shaming to have to admit to such feelings or discrimination if the interviewee is a white woman of any size or a slim woman of any race.
Sometimes after heated exchanges with some White women about how a fat woman can be beautiful, a fat woman can be healthy, a fat woman can be physically active, etc., I feel the carpet pulled from under me again because the fat-hating woman will then say, "Oh well, it's easy for you -- you're Black." I usually don't have the energy to go anymore rounds at that point! Some thin or thinner-than-me Black women have been just as bad but they just conclude I'm crazy -- period. I don't know which is worse...Except that the Black women like that I've encountered so far had no power to affect me professionally, such as killing a magazine series they strongly solicited as did the RADIANCE editor I mentioned in a previous post..

A Misurata military council official said Moammar Gaddafi, his son Mutassim and a top aide were buried at dawn Tuesday in a secret location, with a few relatives and officials in attendance, The Associated Press reports.
The bodies of Gaddafi, his son Mutassim and former Defense Minister Abu Bakr Younis had been held in cold storage in the port city of Misurata since the dictator and members of his entourage were captured near his hometown of Sirte on Thursday. Gaddafi and Mutassim were captured alive, with some injuries, but died in unclear circumstances later that day.
The New York Times also ran two pieces on Libya this morning. The first discusses the Libyan government's failure to investigate the death of Qaddafi.
The interim leaders, who declared the country liberated on Sunday, may simply have their hands full with the responsibilities that come with running a state. But throughout the Libyan conflict, they have also shown themselves to be unwilling or incapable of looking into accusations of atrocities by their fighters, despite repeated pledges not to tolerate abuse.
The lack of control came into sharp focus last week, when former rebel fighters arrested Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi. In videos of the capture on Thursday morning, victorious fighters were shown manhandling Colonel Qaddafi, who appeared to be bleeding and distressed but conscious. This was moments after he was pulled from a large drainage pipe where he had hidden after a NATO air assault destroyed part of his convoy. Subsequent video shows his bruised corpse, with at least one bullet wound to the head.
I am more bothered by the information lost during Qaddafi's death and the fact that he won't be on trial than by how he died. Dictators often have inglorious ends.
The second article describes discussions held by both the Libyan and American governments about what to do if Qaddafi is captured (now obviously a moot point):
There were sharp divisions within Libya's Transitional National Council about what to do with Colonel Qaddafi, according to American officials. Some argued that he should be tried in the country; others said it would impose too big a burden on an interim administration dealing with so many other problems.
The ambivalence was mirrored on the American side, with some in the administration concerned that Libya did not have the resources to conduct a proper trial, while others worried that pressuring the Libyans to send him to an international tribunal in The Hague would be viewed as encroaching on their sovereignty.
"The delicate question was how to balance Libyan sovereignty with a frank assessment of their capability to hold a fair trial with international standards," said a senior administration official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly. "We were trying to walk a fine line."

Apple says it will start paying a regular quarterly dividend of $2.65 a share in July and will buy back up to $10 billion of its stock starting in the next fiscal year.
Apple expects the share buyback program to run over three years, with the primary objective to offset the impact of employee stock options and equity grants.
Apple's annual dividend yield will come in around 1.8 per cent. That is slightly lower than the average of 2 per cent for companies in the Standard & Poor's 500 index.
"We have used some of our cash to make great investments in our business through increased research and development, acquisitions, new retail store openings, strategic prepayments and capital expenditures in our supply chain, and building out our infrastructure," Apple Chief Executive Office Tim Cook said in a statement. "You'll see more of all of these in the future."
The company will still maintain a "war chest" for other strategic opportunities, Cook said. "These decisions will not close any doors for us."
He told analysts on a conference call that product innovation remained the company's priority.
The maker of the iPhone, iPad and iPod has $98 billion in cash and securities, equal to about $104 a share, according to ISI Group analyst Brian Marshall.
The company said it anticipated using about $45 billion of domestic cash in the first three years of its buyback and dividend programs.
When asked about Apple's substantial cash parked overseas, Chief Financial Official Peter Oppenheimer said the company had no plans to repatriate it at this time.
"We think that the current tax laws provide a considerable economic disincentive to US companies that might otherwise repatriate the substantial amount of foreign cash that they have," he said. "That's our view. And we've expressed it. "

McNerney/Phillips Win 2016 Men's Low Country Classic of Charleston
November 28, 2016
Charleston, WV
The 4th Lowcountry Paddle tournament had typical Charleston weather reaching a high of 72 but it cooled down at night for some entertaining and fast platform tennis under the lights and a fire pit. The finals included 3 players from Charlotte and Graham McNerney of Atlanta. Graham and Charleston's only 2x winner of this event Robert Phillips defeated former champion Randy Lofgren and 1st time participant Claes Perrson by a score of 6-7, 6-3, 6-3.
These 4 players are fairly new to the game and play at a fast, high level pace. Which was obvious with both teams winning straight set semis final matches over experienced players which included tournament director Jerry Albrikes, Jim Greenho and Charlotte's other team of Eric Miller and Michael Watson.
The tournament was a 1 day event which included 12 teams on 2 ground level platform courts which are the only 2 courts in the state of South Carolina.

Watching BBC Question Time this week, it was notable how completely isolated the government is on detention without trial.
David Miliband was the government stooge on this occasion. (By the way, I have now seem him many times on TV as well as in the House, and so far I remain mystified as to why anyone thinks he is leadership material.) (Update: Richard Ingrams is of a similar view.)
All four of the other panellists strongly opposed the "42 days" proposal: Shami Chakrabarti and Vince Cable obviously, but also Douglas (now Lord) Hurd, and even the loopy far-right Mail columnist Peter Hitchens.
I've also recently seen Michael (now Lord) Heseltine and, for heaven's sake, even Michael Howard speaking against the proposal with equal passion, all on "habeas corpus" civil-liberty grounds. The breadth of the consensus against the government is quite remarkable.
Then yesterday up pops Sir John Major, saying that the plan will actually achieve the opposite of what it claims. Hurd, Heseltine, Howard, Major -- it seems ludicrous to suggest that all these former top Tories are "soft on terrorism".
As has been endlessly pointed out, the DPP doesn't think 42 days are necessary, and nor do the former Attorney-General, or the former Lord Chancellor, or various former chief constables.
Now the Home Secretary has had to admit that MI5 haven't asked for it, either.
Why on earth has Gordon Brown been so determined to press ahead with this? The political calculation seems to be that it will show him to be "tough" and "doing what is right", based on the fact that the proposal is popular with the general public, according to opinion polls. Well, the same is true of capital punishment, but parliamentarians have consistently rejected that because they know it is wrong, and no conceivable government would dream of trying to bring it back, whatever the polls say.
Anyway, as Alan Watkins points out this morning, any political credit accruing to Brown if he does get this through is likely to be extremely short-lived.
And even if the clause scrapes through the Commons, it is likely to come to grief in the House of Lords, who can effectively delay it for a year or more. If Brown has any sense, he will quietly leave it to die in the Lords, and save face by "not getting around" to finding any more parliamentary time for it in the Commons.

Come summer holidays and a mother's responsibilities double up. She not only needs to keep her kids inside the house but also keep them away from the health complications of this hot season. And, so here are a few mommy's hot tips to keep your child cool and healthy during summer:
Treat nose bleeds: Although they are not alarming unless they occur frequently, but they can be quite scary for a child. My little brother would get frequent nosebleeds during summer. Here's a few tips from my mommy to make the nosebleed stop:
- Make your child sit on a chair and tilt his head slightly forward.
- Rub ice over his nose and cheeks.
- Fold a big napkin, keep it under the nose and apply pressure.
- Rub some Vaseline or castor oil inside the nose but only once the bleeding stops.
Keep kids hydrated: Kids lose a lot of fluids while playing out in the heat. And they are so busy playing that they don't even realise that they are thirsty. This becomes a big challenge for the mothers. Usually, when my little one goes down to play, I give her a water bottle so that she can drink whenever she feels thirsty.
Also, kids like to have interesting options. So give them nimbu pani, coconut water, butter milk, aam panna, khus khus water, kokum sherbet.
Keep their bodies cool: It's very important to keep the little bodies cool. I am not suggesting you keep them confined to an air-conditioned room. Try it, that won't work for much longer. The best thing is to give kids certain foods that keep their body temperature down.
While growing up in Ahmedabad, my mom used to give us raw mango panna and raw mango chutney to beat the warm winds 'loo'.
Recipe for raw mango chutney:
Grate 1 raw mango and 1 medium-sized onion (you may even finely chop them). Add jaggery, salt, red chilli powder to it and mix it well. It tastes awesome with chapatti.
Give your child gulkand or soak 5 black raisins in water overnight and give it to your child every morning.
Here are a few tips that the Headmistress of my school used to share with us before every summer holidays. They are quite handy. They were for me.
- A few times a day, pour cold (from earthen pot) water on your child's pulse points like on the wrists, inside of the elbows and behind the knees.
- Whenever your child comes back home from outside, ask him to splash cold water in his eyes and face. Some kids experience burning sensation in the eyes due to excessive heat. This will help.
- Cotton is the keyword. Make your child wear loose cotton clothes. It helps keep them cool and allows free circulation of air.
- Bathe your kid in neem water for prickly heat. Soak neem leaves in water overnight and boil them the next morning.
- Always soak mangoes in water for 20-30 minutes prior to cutting and serving.
- Keep your child indoors (I know it's difficult) from 12 to 5 in the afternoon as the sun is at its worst during those hours.
- Avoid making your child have sugarcane juice, ice lollies (golas) at dubious places.
- Make sure your child doesn't drink or eat chilled things immediately after coming from outside. It may lead to a sore throat.
These are mommy's hot tips to keep your child cool and healthy during summer. Do you have some more tips to keep your child cool in the terrible heat of the summer? Feel free to share them here.

Lions call to arms
14 Dec 2014
The director of the newly-launched Lions Club of Southbank, Graeme Lukey, has called on the community to get behind the initiative.
The group set up a stall at the Southbank Farmers Market on Saturday, December 6, as it began its push to recruit more members from the local community.
"The Lions Club is still in formation," Mr Lukey said. "We've been meeting now for maybe about 10 months and gradually establishing interest but we are still looking for members to get our formation."
The Lions Club movement is an international humanitarian organisation, which was established with the purpose to serve the local community.
Mr Lukey said the group was already formulating ideas on how to help the Southbank community grow.
"One thing that we're considering at the moment is, in fact, English training for those who are obviously migrants to the area, which we believe there is a lot and who need some help and assistance in establishing their communication skills," he said.
To make a membership enquiry contact Graeme: email@example.com

Sharon purchased a skein of dyed sock yarn from me, and she finished the socks last night!
I love seeing the raw materials I've provided being turned into finished products, especially when they're that lovely. I think it's her second pair of socks, no less.
I have a bit of dyeing to do, and a loom to warp, but it has turned into an incredibly gorgeous fall day and I need to spend some time outdoors first.

This little post is about further developments within our & Son feature coming very soon. We thought we should demonstrate the inclusion of 2D assets into 3D by making a little post showing the components in and out of the 3D Maya workspace. However, this is not to say that we do not have a slice of animation to show. Please check out the video below, comments appreciated!
These shots are primarily following the integration of 2D characters into our 3D playblasts. There have been a couple of camera adjustments to shots 58 and 59. Shots 60 & 61 are solely based on 2D planes within Maya, one camera moving one not.
The images above were drawn by our artist Chrissie Peters, it is now our job to place them on planes within Maya using alpha channels. Each plane will disappear and leave us with a flat character for use in static (and in some cases) non static. The animated 2D planes are quite huge in size but they add extra motion to our "flat" world.
The images above show the progression of adding the 2D characters to this scene. The first shot is with no characters at all to show the original with light and occlusion. The second is the planes with light influence and Occlusion on the ground plane... The problem with this is it made a horrible dark line at the base of the plane. The final shot shows the character plane with occlusion ignored with "miLabel" the only problem we found with this is characters don't appear to be rooted without shadowing.
Last but not least are 3 rendered shots of our 2D characters within our final lit interior church setting. Each shot is taken from a different scene (59, 60 & 61). Movement with the 2D characters is minimal for these particular shots but we wanted to show how they all look within the lit Maya environment. Whatever we decide over the next couple of weeks we are happy to be on good form with the interior environment which was originally quite flat... gotta love occlusion.
