Advertising Campaigns Will Focus on User Music Engagement Tied to Brand Awareness
LOS ANGELES – MySpace, the world’s premier social network, today announced that McDonald’s, Sony Pictures, State Farm, and Toyota will be the first four integrated sponsors of MySpace Music, the new music joint venture with the world’s largest music labels. These four platinum brands will be powering customers’ access to a host of new music services.
“MySpace Music is our biggest initiative since we launched MySpace itself,” said Jeff Berman, president of sales and marketing, MySpace. “With MySpace Music integration, premium brands are offering our users and their customers new ways to discover, experience, and share music online and offline.”
MySpace Music is the first industry-wide music solution that has secured partnerships with SONY BMG MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT, Universal Music Group, and Warner Music Group to create an e-commerce platform based off of the users’ ability to discover, share, and socialize through the medium of music. The upcoming launch of MySpace Music evolves the current music offering by empowering the site’s five million artists to provide fans with an unprecedented suite of social music services including free audio streaming and music e-commerce.
McDonald’s integration on MySpace Music also includes presence on MySpace Music’s personal music player, which gives users unique tools and applications they can’t find on any other music program. In addition, the company is sponsoring a variety of free song downloads on the site, enhancing users’ music experience and providing them with the opportunity to discover and listen to new artists.
“We’re excited to be a part of this innovative new music platform that allows us to connect with customers in a unique and relevant way,” said Anja Carroll, Marketing Director, McDonald’s USA. “This venture provides customized tools and applications to a large, passionate audience, helping them to discover, download and enjoy the music they love.”
Currently, MySpace users can only add one song to their profiles, but once MySpace Music launches, users will be able to create and post full playlists of songs. To promote the opening of Sony Pictures’ comedy “Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist,” the movie studio will be skinning all MySpace Music user’s profile playlists for an entire week with branding from the film. This is an unprecedented MySpace ad campaign whereby all users, upon login, will be automatically presented with a “Nick & Norah” appropriately-themed skinned playlist, creating an opportunity for users to engage with the movie’s MySpace profile page. Sony will also be taking out roadblocks on MySpace Music’s homepage. Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist will be in theaters nationwide on October 3, 2008.
The insurance company will have a much more overarching brand presence on MySpace Music. With no dominant real estate in one particular area of the site, State Farm will have a rotational presence among all pages including the Featured Playlist, the Personal Music Player, and MyMusic where members go to create and edit playlists.
“State Farm, through our NowWhat.com efforts, has created a strong connection with our younger, more music-savvy audience because of our ability to offer a variety of music programming that caters to diverse crowds,” said Ed Gold, advertising director of State Farm. “MySpace Music will offer an even deeper breadth of artist selections and music genres to create a more impactful relationship with our current and potential customers.”
Toyota’s partnership with MySpace Music will help the company engage with music fans across a wide variety of genres. With “Toyota Tuesdays,” the company will offer free music downloads and have a strong presence on MySpace Music’s Personal Music Player every Tuesday for a year. The Personal Music Player, also referred to as the “online jukebox,” is found by popping out any playlist. Toyota will also have a presence on the Featured Playlist page, which helps music fans discover new tunes recommended by their favorite celebrities and artists.
“This unprecedented opportunity lets us engage with a wide array of customers in an authentic way through their music interests and passions,” said Kim McCullough, corporate manager, marketing communications, Toyota.

The organic citrus season in North America is in a period of transition right now, with some regions finishing up and others just starting. Organic lemons are on the move, while California Navels have just commenced. Overall supplies have been sufficient, with good demand for most of the citrus categories.
"The Mexico organic lemon deal is winding down now," shared Stefan Misse, a citrus buyer at Discovery Organics, a certified organic wholesaler servicing Western Canada. "This area provided great quality and volume during the summer months when there was light supply in the United States. The main lemon growing areas in California will begin volume harvests in the coming weeks. The California Valencia crop finished up a month ago as the transition to Navels began, and at the end of November we see other types of specialty citrus starting such as Meyer lemons, clementines, pomelos, Cara Cara and blood oranges, all out of California."
Organic pixie tangerines grown in Ojai, California
Misse noted that there was heavy demand for organic California Navels during the Thanksgiving pull, and therefore promotions might be strong in the weeks ahead. "There was very good demand for Thanksgiving on organic Navels," he said. "This may provide a good opportunity for promotions if there is some carryover of stock in stores, and growers get backed up post-holiday."
At this early stage, organic California Navels are tending smaller, much like the conventional crop, Misse said, but that will hopefully change as the season progresses. "Sizing is all to do with weather, and overall it's been a dry and warm summer. When rain falls, a side effect is that it makes conditions difficult for harvesting and fruit tends to be left on the trees for a longer period. There is rain in the forecast in some regions so it's likely that sizing will steadily normalize."
New lemon orchards are maturing in Jalisco
New lemon orchards to alleviate summer shortage
During the summer months, there are fewer lemon growing regions, placing added pressure on those that are producing at that time. This year, that pressure materialized into a massive shortage that sent prices to unprecedented levels. This kind of scenario is a strong possibility every year and therefore Discovery Organics decided to do something about it by planting their own organic orchards. Located across various sites in Jalisco, the orchards were planted in 2017 and are set to start commercial production with the next two years.
"With our new organic lemon orchards in Jalisco, we are trying to bridge that supply gap that usually occurs in summer," Misse explained. "The orchards are expected to supply organic lemons between the months of March and the end of July, beginning of August. We might do our first picks next spring but this fruit will most likely remain in the domestic market because volume won't be enough for larger shipments. We will hopefully start greater production the following year."
Pixie tangerine groves in Ojai which were not able to be harvested last season
Specialty citrus varieties
Organic suppliers will be hoping that Pixie tangerines from the Ojai Valley in California will be available again this season. Last season's crop was lost when fires prevented growers from harvesting the fruit. "We're hoping to have Pixie tangerines this season and not have a repeat of last season when the fruit had to be left on the trees when growers were unable to pick them," Misse said. "First picks will be late February, early March."
Many of the smaller-scale specialty citrus varieties continue to enjoy good demand. Misse observed that one of the varieties that consumers are continually seeking out are the organic blood oranges. "Blood oranges are quite unique, with their vivid colors being very particular," he said. "Because of their nature, most stores are happy to regularly stock them."

Muslim community leaders and French nationals living in Merseyside have condemned the massacre of cartoonists carried out at the Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris.
Irfan Ahmad, president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association in Liverpool, said: “We condemn the attack on Charlie Hebdo and are deeply shocked by this atrocity that has taken 12 lives and injured scores more. We offer our condolences to the family of the victims and those left bereaved.
“It is hoped that the perpetrators of Wednesday’s attack are swiftly arrested and brought to justice with the full weight of the law. It is a great source of regret that such violent acts and terrorist activities continue to be associated with Islam - despite the fact they have nothing to do with Islam’s true teachings.”
Meanwhile a group of French people living in Liverpool are organising a march in support of the victims and their families on Sunday.
Organiser Vincent Moog, 26, said: “I think it’s very important because this attack against the freedom of speech in France. It’s important not only for France but for Europe and the world.
“Everyone in France has grown up with this magazine. People in France are organising marches to support those who died and their families and though we are not in France we think it’s very important to give them our support.”
The march will start in Derby Square at 2pm and continue around the city centre.
Meanwhile a two minutes silence was held by Liverpool city council cabinet earlier today.
Liverpool mayor Joe Anderson also told the cabinet meeting he had written to the mayor of Paris offering the city’s sympathy and support.
At the first Liverpool council cabinet meeting since the attack, Mayor Anderson said: “It was a really shocking and disgusting attack.
“I have written to the Mayor of Paris, and we will support them in any way we can.”
Twelve people were killed when masked gunmen stormed the offices of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo on Wednesday.
The magazine had previously published controversial cartoons featuring the Prophet Mohammed. Eyewitnesses said the attackers claimed to belong to Al-Qaeda and shouted “we have avenged the Prophet Mohammed” and “God is Great” in Arabic.
The attacks have been condemned by Muslim groups worldwide.
The violence in France has continued, and two sieges are currently ongoing, one north east of Paris where two terrorists are holding a hostage in a printing plant, and another in a kosher market in Paris involving five hostages.
The attacker in the market appears to be linked to the Charlie Hebdo massacre.
A police officer said the gunman opened fire in the market, saying: “You know who I am.”
The man named by police as being in the market, Amedy Coulibaly, is also suspected of killing a female police officer yesterday.
Earlier two suspects also hijacked a car in Dammartin-en-Goele, near Charles de Gaulle airport.

Hatoful Boyfriend - Review
Hatoful Boyfriend is more nuanced and compelling than it has any right to be. Its outrageous concept is so over the top that it’s hard to view the game as anything more than a joke; something amusing but mostly held together by the mere fact of its existence. But these preconceptions, strung along by even its own marketing and description, are hiding the shockingly well written and emotionally stirring narrative underneath.
To be entirely clear, it is in part exactly what it appears to be: an otome dating simulator/visual novel, set in a world where birds have evolved to be the most intelligent species and humans have been mostly driven to extinction. Playing as the lone human student at Pigeonation Academy, you are tasked with going about your day, trying to scrape by in your schoolwork while wooing the bird of your dreams.
HATOFUL BOYFRIEND NEVER DISSOLVES INTO BIRD LOVER PANDERING
It’s an intentionally laughable idea, and one which at first can seem so ridiculous as to turn those less drawn to Japan’s stranger exports away, but its one which never dissolves into idiotic bird lover pandering (assuming that’s a thing that exists) or outright stupidity with its writing. Hatoful Boyfriend is entirely aware of its own absurdity, and treats it almost as an afterthought, to the point that the fact these characters are nearly entirely birds became irrelevant at least as far as being a very odd novelty.
Hatoful Boyfriend’s writing is exceptional, both hilarious and comical, and heart wrenchingly sad and contemplative. Though it begins as little more than a silly teenage romance, it spends this time crafting characters that you come to care about, before hurling them into a plot darker and more precarious than I ever could have imagine. While there are certainly parts (and entire storylines) within the game which are nothing but comedy, allowing the humorous and charming side of the game to take the spotlight for a moment and provide more than a few laughs, it was when the subject matter moved away from this silliness that I began to finally see the hidden brilliance of the game’s writer.
It’s shocking to even consider at first, and even now as I’m writing this I’m rather stunned at what Hatoful Boyfriend manages to do with its narrative, but it handles it's incredibly dark material with incredible grace and consideration. Calculated genocide, mass murder and biological experimentation, interspecies racism, and the value of family are not only touched upon, but discussed at length and in such a way as to not only allow you to take them seriously within the game’s context, but actually emphasize and become emotionally invested in the avian characters that once seemed so innocent and comical.
Hatoful Boyfriend made me laugh; it made me smile and appreciate its subtlety; and it made me cry. The spectrum of emotions I experienced throughout my handful of playthroughs (which should be considered a requisite, as you will miss the vast majority of the game’s content if you only go through it once) was something I never imagined this game to be capable of. It kept me playing for hours on end, up late into the night, and I’m still attempting to process all that I witnessed. It could very well be the apotheosis of a game you shouldn’t judge by its cover, and something that everybirdie ought to at least give a chance before writing it off as something it by and large is anything but.

WASHINGTON (MNI) - President Barack Obama formally unveiled his fiscal year 2014 budget this week and his plan had the unusual effect of dividing congressional Democrats and Republicans while also injecting energy into the search for a modest-sized deficit reduction package this summer.
Most congressional Democrats praised the Obama budget, but some expressed unease with the president's support of implementing the chained CPI and means-testing some aspects of the Medicare program.
Republican leaders scorched the Obama budget as both tardy and timid, but several specifically praised the president for his proposals on the chained CPI and Medicare.
Budget experts say the fiscal debate appears to have been extracted from the rut it has been mired in for some time by Obama's new budget.
"I was pleasantly surprised by the president's budget," said Bob Bixby, executive director of the Concord Coalition.
"It's not a perfect budget by any means. But it put some things on the table that need to be on the table. I think it moved the debate forward and gives members of Congress a lot to think about and debate about. But it's unclear if Congress will be willing to act. Budgeting is hard. There are difficult choices," he added.
Bill Frenzel, a former Republican congressman and now a guest scholar at the Brookings Institution, also argued that Obama's budget has energized the fiscal debate.
"It seems to me that for the first time, the president is leading a potentially constructive discussion about fiscal policy," said Frenzel.
"I don't think the conditions are right for a Grand Bargain this year, but I think there is the chance for a medium-sized deal in connection with the debt ceiling vote this summer," Frenzel adds. He adds that a deficit reduction package of between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion over a decade is possible to imagine.
Obama introduced his FY'14 budget Wednesday, arguing it balances the imperatives of deficit reduction and economic growth.
Obama's new budget includes a renewal of the $1.8 trillion deficit reduction offer over a decade which he made to Republicans late last year during the fiscal cliff negotiations.
This offer calls for $580 billion in additional revenues, $400 billion in health care entitlement savings, $230 billion in savings by implementing the chained CPI, $200 billion in other entitlement savings, $200 billion in discretionary savings and $210 billion in reduced interest costs.
The Republican response to the Obama budget was mixed, with both House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell blasting the overall plan. McConnell said the Obama budget was "for the most part, just another left-wing wish list."
But McConnell also praised Obama for including the chained CPI. "The president seem prepared to finally concede this time that at least something needs to be done to save entitlements from their inevitable slide toward bankruptcy. I'm glad to see him begin to come to grips with the math here," he said.
House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan also blasted the Obama budget as a timid plan that does not confront the nation's key fiscal problems. But he signaled that it might provide the basis for reaching some kind of medium-sized deficit agreement later in the year.
"At least everybody put a plan on the table. We hope to have a healthy clarifying budget debate. My goal is to find, where we can, common ground," Ryan said.
He added this would best be accomplished through a congressional conference committee that reconciles the House GOP budget he wrote and the Senate Democratic budget drafted by Sen. Patty Murray, the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee.
"A conference report is a great vehicle, probably the best one, to do that," Ryan said.
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor also signaled there may be a chance for some fiscal progress. "We've got some things on the table that maybe we can start to discuss," Cantor said.
Treasury Secretary Jack Lew told the Senate Finance Committee Thursday that Obama budget was designed to appear to the "sensible center" in Congress and "increase the likelihood" of a bipartisan fiscal accord.
But Lew emphasized that the White House will only agree to adopting the chained CPI and various Medicare reforms in the context of "an overall balanced agreement" that includes additional revenues.

No one said that the Emmy nominations would be fair. Yes, Rhea Seehorn received an overdue nod for her Kim Wexler portrayal on Better Call Saul, and nods were fairly spread around for Pam & Tommy‘s leads and background players. Another Hulu show (Only Murders In The Building), though, saw a major player get the shaft.
That’d be Selena Gomez, who’s pitch-perfect as Bloody Mabel and apparently destined to be vastly underappreciated. Yes, she received a nomination as a producer for the show, but dang, she’s great onscreen, so why no acting nod, too? Instead, Martin Short and Steve Martin both nabbed nods for the Best Actor In A Comedy series category, and Selena went without. The SNL alums were quick to defend their leading lady, too, with Martin speaking with the New York Times to declare, “We’re dismayed that Selena was not nominated because she’s so crucial to our performances, really.”
Martin also spoke with Entertainment Tonight to emphasize how the show couldn’t happen without Selena. “Marty and I, and the whole team at Only Murders in the Building, are thrilled with our nominations,” he added. “We’re also loving that our crucial partner Selena Gomez is recognized as a producer in the Best Comedy Series category.”
Hmm, yeah. It’s not a great omission, and it’d be a pain if Selena (like Rhea) had to wait several seasons for a nomination, but Emmys are apparently gonna Emmy. In the meantime, consider watching Selena + Chef on HBO Max! It’s a joy of a show.

As outlined in the Estimates of National Expenditure, published by Treasury, over the next three years the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) would have to cultivate 120 000ha of underutilised land in communal areas every year, and increase irrigated agricultural land by 750 000ha.
The department was also expected to provide support to 145 000 smallholder and/or subsistence farmers per year, restore 30 500ha of degraded land through reforestation and land rehabilitation per year and create 70 000 jobs by 2018 through the Comprehensive Agricultural Support Programme (CASP) and Ilima/Letsema-funded projects such as Fetsa Tlala.
All of this and more needed to be achieved with less money since the total allocation for DAFF was cut from R6,69 billion in 2014/2015 to R6,38 billion for 2015/2016 and to R6,34 billion for the 2016/2017 financial year.
Agriculture minister Senzeni Zokwana told Farmer’s Weekly that Nene was not placing “undue pressure” on DAFF. But, he said, “we will have to pull up our socks to make sure that we do not disappoint the minister and the president.
“If we can succeed in finding new markets for our commodities we can create jobs and ensure food security – it is not an insurmountable task,” said Zokwana.

If you’re looking for the best grass to plant for deer, there are a few specific varieties to consider. Deer’s like long grass that they can hide in, as well as shorter grass to eat. Aim to plant native grasses that deer would find in the wild.
Deers feed on average five times a day and require two different types of grass. Shorter grass to eat and longer grass that provides the coverage they need to sleep. Switchgrass can be planted as it’s tall and provides protection. Some people also grow big blue, but this grass offers a better environment for birds such as pheasants. Let’s look at the best varieties to plant if you’re aiming to create a native habit for deer and other wildlife.
Which Types of Grass is Best For Deer?
Switchgrass is the best type of grass for deers as it’s long and provides enough cover. This variety of grass is relatively robust. The only problem with planting switchgrass to attract deer is that they won’t eat this variety of grass. While deers may visit your paddock to sleep, you may not see any deer during the day.
The solution to this problem is to plant pockets of edible grass in amongst the switchgrass. Choose a good quality grass seed, such as ryegrass, and create irregularly shaped pockets. Ryegrass is a good choice as it germinates quickly and is easy to grow. Ensure that the ryegrass is completely surrounded by taller switchgrass.
You can use a herbicide during the summer to get rid of broadleaf weeds from your patches of ryegrass. Also, remove briars and woody weeds, shrubs, and small trees. This will help create enough food for deer, which will mean they are more likely to be attracted to your field.
By creating pockets of different grasses, deer will have enough food as well as somewhere covered to dose. You may also like to plant trees near the pockets of shorter grass to mark where the deer are likely to be during the day and provide extra cover.
It will take about 18 months for switchgrass to reach the desired height of between 4 and 5 feet. In some regions, with the right climate, switchgrass may grow slightly faster, and your deer habitat will be established in a single season.
When creating a deer habitat, aim to provide the deer with food and protection. If you can do that, the deer are more likely to hang around in your field rather than going elsewhere to meet their needs. Switchgrass is the best type of long grass that provides cover for deer. Incorporate pockets of shorter fodder grass in amongst the switchgrass. Ryegrass is a good choice as it’s very fast growing and is hardy. It’s best to use a herbicide to kill weeds so that the deer have enough grass to feed on. You may also like to plant trees and provide a water source to make your habitat more appealing to deers.

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at an increased risk of both dementia and its precursor, mild cognitive impairment. Cognitive dysfunction impacts about 20–50% in elderly patients with moderate CKD and may reach as high as 70% in severe CKD/dialysis. Dementia is more common among the elderly, women, and non-white patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). It has been shown to be less common among patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD) and transplant patients. Cognitive dysfunction in patients with CKD likely results from uremic neurotoxins interacting with neural progenitor cells, the brain vasculature, the lymphatic system, and monoaminergic neurons .
Månsson et al. set out to examine if having a GFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2 impacted cognitive development. They specifically looked at the development of dementia or mild cognitive impairment during a 6-year period. They also examined specific cognitive domains: learning and memory, language, complex attention, executive function, perceptual-motor, global cognitive function, and meta-memory. They found that processing speed, a subdomain of complex attention, was affected by kidney disease. There was no statistical significance in dementia or mild cognitive impairment associated with mild renal impairment (mean GFR was 74 mL/min/1.73m2).
Knowing that patients with kidney disease are at risk of cognitive impairment, what can I do to better serve this population as their physician? We should provide this population with support and resources including support groups and patient education with the potential to improve outcomes though there is not strong data yet to support this. Providing additional resources like social workers, counseling with pharmacists, and other therapies might prevent adverse outcomes in this group. After reading Månsson et al. article, I know I will work towards recognizing and accommodating mild cognitive impairment in my CKD clinic. I intend to change my practice by giving patients additional time to complete forms during the visit such as intake forms. I frequently provide patient education during a visit, such as low sodium diet, dialysis modalities, etc. This may be better served through going at a slower pace or incorporating a separate visit focused on CKD education instead of speeding through it in a 20-minute follow-up visit. I don’t always write down all of my treatment changes for the patient such as stop this medication or increase this medication, but I will now. I hope to provide written information that they can return to later by typing out my patient instructions more thoroughly or giving handouts on topics we discuss during our education. And finally, repetition is key to allow them to process it in their own time.

Reese from Lakota East High School, and a junior at Butler Tech School of the Arts, is beginning her journey in the dance program with some very important advice to guide her steps.
Reese was a recent recipient of a Make-A-Wish experience where she met professional dancer, Derek Hough, at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas. At age ten, Reese was diagnosed with epilepsy, and nearly six years after being nominated for the wish, she and her family spent an entire weekend in Las Vegas where they were able to meet Hough and attend his show, “Derek Hough: No Limit.” Hough performed dance styles ranging from ballroom and tap to salsa, hip-hop, and everything in between but the highlight for Reese came during a private question and answer session where she was invited to the stage to dance with Hough!
“It was so exciting to meet my favorite dancer and I am so grateful that he agreed to the wish,” shared Reese. “My favorite part was that I got to dance with Derek Hough!”
In the end, the advice Hough gave Reese is one she will recall often as she completes her next two years at the School of the Arts.
“He said that you don’t practice to be perfect, you practice to make progress,” recalled Reese. “That was certainly my biggest takeaway.”

Antonio Brown embarrasses Mike Tomlin, gives Patriots serious bulletin-board material
This is why you lay low on social media, Antonio Brown.
The Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver broadcasted a Facebook Live video from inside the team's locker room following their 18-16 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, and in the video you can clearly hear coach Mike Tomlin bashing the Patriots in an expletive-filled speech.
Ironically, you can also hear a voice telling the team to take it easy on social media this week.
“Let’s say very little moving forward. Let’s start our preparations,” Tomlin can be heard saying. “We spotted those (expletive) a day and a half. They played yesterday. Our game got moved to tonight. We gonna touch down at 4 o’clock in the (expletive) morning. So be it. We’ll be ready for that (expletive). But you ain’t gotta tell them we coming ... Keep a low profile.”
The locker-room video, which has plenty of explicit language and players in various states of undress, is still up on Brown's Facebook page.
For Tomlin and the Steelers coaching staff, this is a minor headache, but one that's so avoidable it's got to rankle them. On a week where they'll want to be focusing every second on figuring out how to stop Tom Brady and the Patriots offense, this is something they'll have to talk about, figure out how to handle press questions. It's a meeting they don't want to have.
Will it seriously affect the outcome of the game? Probably not. It was always going to be difficult to beat the Patriots in Gillette Stadium, and that's true no matter what Tomlin is caught saying on social media. And no matter what the Steelers said, Bill Belichick and the Patriots coaching staff was going to figure out a way to motivate the team.
This just makes everything a tiny bit easier for them, and a tiny bit harder for the Steelers. And all so Brown could provide some content for his Facebook followers.

Welcome to week three of VOD Vault, where we take a look at another bunch of direct-to-market releases, many of which hit iTunes and the supermarket shelves without fanfare, walking you – our readers – down the fine line between spending your money wisely, or throwing it away on another slice of DTV dross. Up this week are two films on the opposite end of the cinematic spectrum: Get a Job, a long-delayed rom-com starring Anna Kendrick and Miles Teller; and claustrophobic horror Blood Rush.
GET A JOB
Stars: Anna Kendrick, Alison Brie, Miles Teller, Bryan Cranston, Cameron Richardson, Greg Germann, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Marcia Gay Harden, Nicholas Braun, John C. McGinley, Jorge Garcia, John Cho, Bruce Davidson | Directed by Dylan Kidd
Life after college graduation is not exactly going as planned for Will (Teller) and Jillian (Kendrick) who find themselves lost in a sea of increasingly strange jobs, perpetual unemployment and adulthood angst. But with help from their family, friends and coworkers they soon discover that the most important (and hilarious) adventures are the ones that we don’t see coming.
Get a Job is a film with a storied past. Directed by Dylan Kidd, who made the well-regarded Rodger Dodger back in 2002, finished production on this, his third film, some four years ago and only now – after even actress Anna Kendrick said it would probably never be released on Marc Maron’s podcast a while back – has finally snuck out into the market as, at least here in the UK, a VOD-only release. And that delay, whilst allowing the film to sail on the coat-tails of the more recent success of its stellar cast, has only damaged any relevance the film has with millenials (of whom this film is clearly aimed).
Get a Job is the kind of film that only serves to that remind me of the John Hughes era of US cinema; telling a story that – had it been released a few years earlier as planned – would have captured the zeitgeist perfectly. Now? Even with its issues, Get a Job is still a great rom-com come teen drama that, thanks to its cast (in particular Teller’s character and his band of weed-smoking cohorts) is still well worth a watch. Even if it never quite lives up to Teller’s opening monologue about how coddled kids are these days – receiving congratulations and physical rewards when they haven’t really accomplished anything.
Stars: Stella Maeve, Evan Taubenfeld, Ashley Carin, Michael Madsen | Directed by Harris Demel
Directed by Harris Demel, Blood Rush fixes on Nicole Diamond, an internationally-known model, who finds herself in an upside-down car in the middle of nowhere. In the passenger seat is her unconscious boyfriend, pop singer Scott Donnoly, a.k.a. Scotty Dee. Not a soul is around to help, and her legs are wedged under the dashboard. She’s trapped. Danger lurks everywhere, including a small fire under the car, wild animals in the vicinity, and the unknown, life-threatening physiological effects of hanging upside down indefinitely. With her damaged cell phone, she dials random numbers until she finally reaches someone willing to help – a mysterious man named Casey. However, she soon learns that roadside assistance is the last thing on Casey’s mind.
As if timed to coincide with the release of Iain Softley’s Curve, Blood Rush takes a very similar premise and does pretty much the opposite of what Softley did with the high-concept idea. i.e. actually makes a decent, understated thriller. It’s because first-time director Harris Demel doesn’t try to hide the genre trappings of this film – his is an out and out thriller, not a thriller in drama clothing, Blood Rush, aka Flipped, plays up the tension rather than drama and there’s a real sense of claustrophobia too. Demel’s movie also has a villain (voiced by Michael Madsen) that actually feels like an old-school horror villain – an evil voice on the end of the phone not a pretty boy psycho as seen in Softley’s film. In fact, this movie shares more in common with cat and mouse horror like 1979′s When a Stranger Calls than Curve. And that’s the best compliment I can give.
Blood Rush, aka Flipped, is out now on VOD.
Now this is more like it! Two solid, if totally different, films this week – offering something for everyone and showing just why direct to market/VOD titles are well worth keeping an eye on. Check out previous entries in the VOD Vault right here

This fall, Eastern students looking to pay a visit to the writing center will no longer have to trek to the Case Annex building. Instead, they’ll be heading to the Crabbe Library, where they’ll get instruction in the Noel Studio for Academic Creativity.And tutoring won’t be the only thing available to them.
The studio, which is slated to open sometime in September, is being billed as a new breed of writing centers-a 21st century model that embraces technology and offers students a wide array of computers and other new media to help them polish their papers and presentations.
“It is the most progressive center of its kind,” said Leslie Valley, the studio’s writing coordinator. “Writing centers have been trying to incorporate communication. The whole idea is to teach the student, rather than fix one assignment. I think the studio embodies that in a new way.”
The studio, which is housed in the back of the library near the Grand Reading Room, will feature its own entrance off University Drive. The center is currently under construction, although its director, Russell Carpenter, said the building could be open to students as soon as Sept. 7.
The Noel Studio for Academic Creativity, which absorbed the old writing center formerly in Case Annex, seeks to expand the definition of what a writing center can be. Although it will serve to help students on their writing skills, the studio will also offer technology to help students on everything from power-point presentations, speeches, interviews and even larger multimedia and group projects.
“[The Noel Studio] really brings together a lot of important resources the student body,” said Shawn Apostel, the studio’s communication coordinator. “Seriously, I just hope students realize, and I think they will very soon, what an asset this is.”
Students who enter the studio, after encountering a towering spiral staircase, will find everything from “breakout spaces” that feature digital recording stations for students to record presentations and get feedback on them from the studio’s consultants, to an invention space with wall-to-wall dry erase boards, Carpenter said.
The studio recently hired more than 20 consultants, both undergraduate and graduate students, who will be available to assist students, both with their writing and their other presentation needs.
“There’s definitely some energy around the studio,” Carpenter said.
The idea for the Noel Studio has been in the works for more than five years, Carpenter said. It originally started merely as a relocation of the writing center. But, as the relocation was discussed, one thing became clear – there was a demand for a center that bridged a larger array of what students are increasingly being asked to do, which includes writing, research, and presentation skills. To meet that end, the studio hired a coordinator for each of those subjects.
“It’s unique to Eastern and something other universities don’t have – an incredibly innovative space to inspire creativity and support the development of effective communication practices and products,” Carpenter said.
The studio also will host a variety of programs, workshops, and discussion groups throughout the year. Examples include a workshop entitled “Confronting Speech Anxiety” and another called “Exploring SecondLife,” which examines a virtual world community that has exploded in popularity on the Internet.
“This will be a model for the nation,” Apostel said. “It already is and it’s not even done yet.”
But students don’t have to wait until Sept. 7 to take advantage of Noel Studio. Consultations are available now in Room 208 of the Crabbe Library, the studio’s temporary location. Students can reach the Noel Studio at 622-7330.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WBEN) – The Buffalo woman who allegedly rammed through a group of police officers on Bailey Avenue on Monday night was arraigned Wednesday and charged with five felonies.
Deyanna Davis, 30, plead not guilty to Aggravated Assault on a Police Officer, two counts of second-degree assault, plus a weapons charge and possession of stolen property. Police said she was the driver of an SUV that struck two state troopers and one Buffalo Police officer during the riots on Monday night.
All of the officers struck survived, though New York State Trooper Ronald Ensminger was the most seriously injured. He suffered a broken leg and shattered pelvis. Ensminger underwent surgery on Tuesday.
Davis is paralyzed from the waist down, according to her mother, Ayanna Carr.
"I'd like to say my whole entire family wants to send our deepest apologies to the officer," Carr said after her daughter's arraignment on Wednesday. "We just really want him to know it's not intentional and our family really, really, really, really understands their anger and understands his hurt. We do want to apologize."
Carr described the entire incident as a misunderstanding, saying that further video will prove that Carr never had any intent to hurt officers.
"The media only saw the ending of what happened," she said. "Certainly the circumstances that led up to that they have never seen."
Carr denounced the riots that happened at the time of the incident.
There were two passengers in the car with Davis. Semaj T. Pigrim and Walter B. Stewart, were both charged on Tuesday with criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of stolen property.
Erie County District Attorney John Flynn said Tuesday police recovered a stolen 9mm handgun in the car. The handgun was reported stolen out of West Seneca.
Flynn said his office has other video that refutes the belief that Davis panicked around the time she hit officers. He would not divulge what the video shows but said that she traveled for multiple blocks and that her actions do not reflect someone who was panicked.
"I don't want to taint a jury," Flynn said. "Obviously she's innocent until proven guilty now. She deserves a fair trial."
She will return to court on June 24.

Monday’s here again and today I want to share my delicious corn muffin recipe with you! It took me a few tries to get the recipe right, but that’s okay! That’s how I learn from the previous mistakes, if you can call them mistakes at all, and how I get the recipe exactly the way I want it!
I have really become so addicted to these muffins now! Every night before going to bed, I put a delicious muffin next to my bed so that I can eat it right away in the morning! I sometimes suffer from low blood sugar and this muffin peps me up until I get out with the men in the house!
How did I actually get this idea? Good question! To be honest, I had never baked with cornmeal before, and I had a few kilos in my kitchen shelf anyway, so I thought why not do something with that now? So I came up with this recipe, but the first time the muffins were really too dry and crumbly, so I didn’t really get the right ratio yet.
Three days later I made a new batch that turned out really well, and that made me really happy! The only problem was that I ran out of jalapeño peppers in the house, so unfortunately I couldn’t add them as I intended! But that is not bad at all, that will come next time.
Breakfast in the morning is really, really important. The foods in your breakfast are the building blocks for the rest of the day. You just really have to work something in before you can even expect your body to go to work! And because I’m more of a hearty breakfast person, I keep trying new things because sometimes I just want to get something to eat quickly to get started!
These muffins are really good for this. You can take them with you everywhere and they also go well with an egg, a salad or just as a tasty snack for on the go! And they are so simple to make, it doesn’t get any better than this, right?
Let’s get to work! You can make the dough, then take a shower (or do something else) and then put the muffins in the oven. 15 minutes later you’ll have a delicious fresh and warm corn muffin!
You can make about 12 muffins with these ingredients.
- 150 gr corn flour
- 250 gr of flour
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda (if you use baking powder instead, use a whole teaspoon, and no vinegar)
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of pepper
- 1 teaspoon of chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon of oregano
- 50 gr of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice (any vinegar will work)
- 2 eggs
- 250 ml of milk
- 60 ml of oil
- 50 gr of grated cheese
- 40 gr of melted butter
- jalapeño pieces
- grated cheese
- chili flakes
Sieve the flour and mix it with the corn flour. Then mix in the rest of the dry ingredients. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, oil, melted butter and vinegar or lemon juice. Stir these wet ingredients together well and start this mixture little by little by mixing the flour mixture. Stir gently, not too hard or too much. If your batter is still a bit too dry after mixing the wet and dry mixes, add a little milk. Finally, add the cheese to the batter.
Once your batter is mixed, let it rest for at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Prepare a muffin tray or a baking tray with molds in it. After the batter has rested for 30 minutes, use an ice cream scoop to fill the ramekins or muffin cups with batter. The ramekins / trays should be filled to the brim and the batter should be slightly convex at the top, otherwise the muffins won’t pop. Add the toppings and gently press them into the batter. You can also choose to mix the jalapeño pepper into the batter.
Place your muffin tray in the oven for 15 to 17 minutes. Do not open the oven until the muffins are ready or they will collapse! Prick the muffins with a wooden skewer after 15 minutes. Does it come out clean and without crumbs or wet batter? Then the muffins can be taken out of the oven. You can serve them straight from the oven or let them cool down if you prefer.
Voilà, a quick and easy breakfast to enjoy with your family or to take on the go when you go to work!
This is a super delicious muffin recipe, and I’m not saying that because I made this one myself. These muffins really meet my taste expectations. And the sugar and salty ingredients combine to create a truly delicious taste. That’s also why I’m going to experiment with this recipe a few more times!
Luis does not like it. I don’t mind at all, because then there is more left for me! My dad really loves these muffins, which is a good thing, because he didn’t like the first batch and he was very direct and clear about that!
I would say, go and try the recipe and tell me what you would do differently about it! Because of course I don’t know what others like. Well, friends, I really wish you a very happy Monday and a good week!
Are you a sweet chew in the morning or a hearty breakfast right? Of course I always wonder. Will you share your delicious takeout recipe with me? Or a tip about something I should try?
