There is a reason we called one Atlas
So, this product is an amazing switch unit with near limitless potential (I might be stretching that a bit.) We used these as core and edge switches in a major system at 3 of the 4 sites.
What are the pros?
With the Gen 7 Supervisor it has and 868 Gbps switching fabric, support for 10 Gbps Ethernet blades (12 connections a blade), 10/100/1000 blades (48 ports per blade), 48 port SFP blades, and some others I cant remember. 5 of the 7 slots are data blades and the other 2 support redundant supervisors and uplinks allowing for a very versatile and full featured Layer 2 or Layer 3 switch.
Also, dual power supplies...
What are the cons?
I mean... damn these things are heavy.

Global military growth is no defence for billons facing COVID-19: Labour leader
New figures on military expenditure from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) reveal an increase in military spending of 2.6% worldwide last year, to a total of US$ 1,981 billion.
“Governments have brought shame on themselves by wasting vast sums of money on the military and increasing spending while urgent requirements for public health and economic reconstruction and resilience from the COVID-19 pandemic have not been met,” said labour leader Sharan Burrow.
Sharon Burrow is General Secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), which represents 200 million members of 332 affiliated union in 163 countries and territories.
“This is a scandalous misuse of resources at a time when the whole of humanity is threatened by the virus, and when vital financing to tackle climate change is missing. The fact that governments have prioritised their ability to fight wars against each other rather than confronting existential human crises simply beggars belief.”
The SIPRI figures show increased military spending in every region except the Middle East, mainly due to a drop in Saudi Arabia that still spends tens of billions of dollars each year.
Just the 2.6% increase alone would more than meet the investment required for a social protection fund for the least wealthy countries, or cover two-thirds of the investment needed to provide social protection to every person on the planet.
“Much of the world remains defenceless against the SARS-CoV-2 virus due to nationalism and corporate capture of vaccines and other public health tools. This gross misallocation of funding deprives hundreds of millions of people of protection and starves investment in job creation, social protection, public health and care.
“Governments should reduce the size of their military and convert arms manufacturing into socially useful production. Weapons don’t provide security. It is social justice, engagement of civil society and negotiation that keep people secure,” said Sharan Burrow.

According to American news channel, Democracy Now.org, the US spends as much on armaments as the next 12 countries including Russia, China and yes, Great Britain. They plan to advance their nuclear bombing capability by spending $100 billion on one twenty times as powerful as the one dropped on Hiroshima mounted on a missile having a range of 9,600 kilometers. Of the 330 million people living in the US, 140,000 live in poverty. If the US military were a country, in terms of its usage of energy and resources, it would be the 44th largest country in the world. World military spending last year rose to $1981 billion. My first question is: which country is the military threat to the US that they deem it justified to spend that kind of money denying that many of their own people of their needs? The second question: how much would it cost over how many years to raise the standard of living and quality of life of the remainder of the nearly 8 billion population of our planet to the median of those living in the countries of the first world today?

Gilded hair and mocha lips, metallic eyes and cheeks contoured in a rich earthy hue. This beauty editorial from Treats! Magazine may be all about the change in season, reflecting the autumnal colours of falling leaves; but it does so with all the bronzed, shimmery warmth of summer.
That’s the beauty of investing in the ‘molten metallics and shimmery skin’ products Treats is referring to. They take you across seasons, morphing their mood as the temperature lowers. Makeup artist Jo Baker gets it just right in the Tony Duran photographed shoot from Treats’ fourth issue.

*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Diane and I saw this fabulous film yesterday and, as with most
Australian movies, it will linger for many weeks in a mind that has
trouble remembering what happened one hour ago. When I sit in a
darkened theater, knowing nothing about the film I am going to see
except that it is made in and takes place somewhere in Australia, I am
obviously a little trepidatious not knowing anything of where I will be
taken during the next hour. However, soon I get sucked into the action
on the screen and Lucky Miles accomplished this subtly and brilliantly.
The drama unfolds with great seriousness and no humour but eventually you, along with the other viewers, are laughing at the all-to-human situations with which these poor refugees find themselves confronted. It was of help knowing something about the geographical areas these characters found themselves in and it was of some help knowing of the people that they had to deal with before the movie ended but it is not necessary. To be alive and to have encountered these incidents is all this rich, insightful film requires of the viewer.
How can you not laugh at a guy driving a broken wreck of a ute, minus a front wheel but still moving with the front bumper holding the vehicle in a rough straight line? Or the driver driving the ute backwards, sitting on the bonnet with his legs dangling over the dashboard while steering through the broken wind screen; he claims to be a Bassra, Iraqi with a PhD in mechanical engineering. This is a wonderful, rich look at a terribly serious subject punctuated with these bizarre humorous scenarios.
A brilliant movie that should not be missed under any circumstances.
This movie tackles the sensitive political issue of boat-people with laconic Aussie humour against the grandeur of the Western Australian desert and wilderness. The staggeringly beautiful and savage landscape is filmed to maximise the desperation of people who overcome all odds and somehow the director has managed to make it very, very funny.The well-cast motley crew of lesser known actors create multi-faceted rolls with which you can engage. Its a movie full of wonderful faces and intelligent thought. A little word of advice for intrepid travellers - should a largish lizard come hurtling towards you in the outback - do not stand still - as it will think you are a tree and climb!!
The story and script are highly entertaining. The film examines the issue of asylum seekers in a non-confronting way, simply looking at it through the frame of immediate survival for the three "buddies". The acting throughout is also very convincing, and I will even give 3 out of 10 stars to South Australia for its portrayal of the Kimberley. There were some shots when the two stranded fishermen were walking along a beach under some red cliffs which could almost have passed for Cape Vilaret near Broome, but the "inland" shots mostly looked wrong in terms of vegetation and soil. It is sad that when the landscape is such a crucial character in a film, and when authenticity has been well-served in casting the humans, a similarly authentic approach could not also have been applied to that landscape.
This film is for thinkers. The contrast and interaction between the 2
main characters alone, is priceless! Kind of a cowboy story where
everyone is on their own selfish little trip, all a little lost in one
way or another.
Just when we think something terrible is going to happen, WHAM, a clever, witty remark or something unexpected happens. What a hilarious send-up of the Australian army.
As The Sydney Morning Herald puts it, it's a bit like The Wizard of Oz minus Dorothy and the dog.
The dessert, is so beautiful, and the music, well, I sure hope the soundtrack is available soon.
Yes, the 'birds aren't very musical in Australia'. ;-D Lisa McIntosh
This film depicts an Australia the Government doesn't want you to know
about and the tourism industry will not depict in its advertisements.
But the story incorporates truly comedic and heartfelt elements and Australians that we can all identify with.
I challenge anyone to see this film and not be moved by it.
Hrmm. My review needs to be 10 lines long.
This is an unmissable film!
If you see anything in 2007 it should be Lucky Miles.
Lock up your daughters and get to the cinema for Lucky Miles.
I must be up to ten lines now....
LOVED the film ..the story line the cinematography....there were so
many wonderful moments...loved how the Arun 'pan' like figure searched
for his Father in spite of the odds...loved how the ute and the old
shed scene ...felt the raw human emotion when Arun was in the
headlights of the car driven by Gerard K...it was fate and luck as to
whether the driver would be friend or foe...so well done!
Loved how S.A. was made to look like W.A....and how the mean pirate seemed to be sending the message that "He who is without sentiment or conscience will prevail"...but did his karma-drama get him?..watch the film and find out!
Loved Lillian Crombies brief appearance and how the army-tracker really captured the skill and simplicity of the Black-fellas perception of things...especially when they were all running left right and centre and he observed their histrionics.
Thought it was funny when the Sargeant was showing his tracker skills by reading the obvious.....
Really liked how the vulnerability of dispossession was portrayed and how Yousiff kept on going in spite of having lost his wife and brother and job and belongings...and how he looked after the others in spite of his anguish and frustration.
And its true..bars in Asia are full of funny smelling Ozzies and the kind of humour you captured in the film.
One of my favourite scenes was when someone said "He has a gun" and the camera panned right back to a synchronised retreat of all in the shot...well done!
An AFI for this one I reckon!
Well, blow me down... I loathe Australian movies... so I was taking my
chances here... and for once, the reviews on IMDb were spot on... this
fine little Aussie film is a masterpiece.
I don't know if it would work as well for people who aren't Australian because it is the master of some subtle nuance, however, just a brilliant little film, with some very surprisingly hilarious moments... I'm still amazed as I write. This is a movie I could watch again and still thoroughly appreciate.
Watch the beginning carefully... it links beautifully with the ending, but all the stuff in between, wonderful.
Every so often we get to see a little film on TV not too long after its hardtop screening. And this one was worth the second look. It's another way of looking at the Australian outback, not for its awesome beauty but for the challenges it sets for people not used to such a landscape. Here we have such a challenge, the protagonists being asylum seekers who are victims of amoral people-smugglers. This is currently a political hot potato in Australia, as it has been for many years. But this film has a quirky edge to it, and the seriousness of the images is relieved hugely by the humour. It really is fun, and the way the Australians in uniform handle the reality is the fun that has come to be known as gallows humour. Imagine you're a cop or a soldier faced with a nasty situation. You grin, and relieve the tension by making light of things. Resourcefulness and mateship are supposed to be part of the Australian psyche, and this great little film has it in spades. Think "Bush Mechanics". Think "Flight of the Phoenix". And listen out for the voice on the radio. That's the beautiful Deborah Mailman, whom the casting agent would surely have loved to at least do a walk-on. See it on wide screen.
Sometimes, ugly times produce beautiful art, and Lucky Miles is a
I've lost count of the times a smirking politician has described how shockingly, insufferably bad things are in some of them nasty foreign places. They should be thankful we're carpet-bombing them, to restore some civility. Or so we're constantly told.
At the same time it's argued that if some of the locals ever wanted to flee from the above-mentioned insufferably-bad places then there must be something suspicious about them.
Politicians depict refugees as a kind of blood-sucking mix of sacrilege and explosives and use this kind of message to win elections. In one infamous Australian election campaign, the incumbent Liberal government headed by John Howard explained to a horrified electorate that refugees showed their true colors by throwing healthy babies into the ocean to drown. And they had photos to prove it. The electorate was stunned and offered sufficient votes to return the government for another term. It was only after the election that the whole story came out: the kids in the photos (and adults too) were in the water because their boat was sinking.
Refugees are a fact of life, and with climate change set to inundate some of the most heavily populated coastal regions with salty water, the smart money says the issue is not going to fade away. There's no such thing as a country without borders and in a place like Australia, which is an island-continent the size of mainland USA, I think it's preferable being better informed about refugees rather than lied to.
And so it is with an approach of casting a gentle and honest light on a mixed batch of refugees, dumped on a remote stretch of Australian coastline, that Lucky Miles begins its story. The refugees are not saints, and they're not villains either. In fact they seem to be remarkably human. Excited, frightened, insecure, and totally unfamiliar with their new surroundings, but at all times, human. There's one memorable scene where a group encounters an 'unexploded' tin can. The film doesn't mock their response. It just deals with it and moves on. And I love that.
One aspect of the film which I've never seen used before, was the use of text translations positioned right alongside the speakers instead of always running on the bottom of the screen as subtitles. I hate thinking of all the foreign-language footage I've never seen over the years because I was tied up scanning only the bottom one-tenth of a screen reading the text. Placing the translations alongside the character not only allowed me to watch the film, but also made it crystal clear which character was talking - a feature which enhanced the long-distance scenes immeasurably. That subtle difference alone made me feel like spontaneously applauding.
And that's what it's like to watch this film. You can peel away the 'spin' filters, canned laughter and smoke machines, and make up your own mind about the issues as the story develops. And it is a good story too, with real human drama. It is told with refreshing simplicity. It feels believable. Director Michael James Rowland truly shines in his role.
I thoroughly recommend this film.
Lucky Miles is a movie which every Australian should see. It deals
delicately and stylishly with the topics of illegal immigration,
cross-cultural interconnectedness and isolation, while also presenting
a gripping and sometimes beautifully humorous narrative. By presenting
the stories of the two groups of boat people in a non-judgemental and
value neutral manner this film could go a long way towards repairing
Australia's generally xenophobic international reputation.
The different, and yet intimately connected stories draw the reader in and immerse them in the stark reality of the Australian outback. As one character points out, it is hard to see this landscape as human, let alone as being part of a developed country. As the viewer joins the immigrants, locals and indigenous trackers through their travails of surviving this atrocious climate they are also led (metaphorically) through the intricacies of our immigration policy.
See this movie with your eyes open people!

GLOVERSVILLE — The Fulton-Montgomery Chamber of Commerce will help to facilitate clean up efforts throughout the region by hosting a cleanup day from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, according to a news release.
The chamber is encouraging all businesses to clean up their sites and to come together with employees and volunteers to clean up roadways, parks and trails to ready the area for the thousands of visitors who will be coming to the region this summer, the news release stated.
If a group participates with the “adopt a highway” program or if there is a park that they take care of, the chamber would like them to join them on Saturday to clean these spaces, the news release stated.
If a group doesn’t have any particular site in mind but would like to get a group of volunteers together to help in the cleanup efforts, contact the Chamber and they will assign a workplace. This is an opportunity to encourage employees to step up their efforts in the clean-up of the business site or to encourage students to get involved in service to their community, the news release stated.
An individual or group can register with the chamber. The chamber will provide garbage bags, safety vests, garbage grabbers and a place to drop off the trash collected. Send a picture of one’s group and the chamber will promote it on their social media platforms and in their newsletter — and give one a shout out in the newsletter and Chamber Connections. Help the chamber clean up this region. The registrations or questions can be directed to the chamber, the news release stated.

The Lake Audy Bison Enclosure in Riding Mountain National Park in Manitoba, Canada is home to a herd of around 30 plains bison. This special area has a healthy prairie ecosystem and was once home to hundreds of Bison making it the ideal location for the reintroduction of the Bison.
For many years, the plains bison had disappeared from these lands after they once covered the landscape as stampedes thundered through. The bison were destroyed in a short period of time leaving the landscape scattered with carcasses and bones.
In 1931, a herd of 20 bison were brought here which failed as the entire population contacted tuberculosis. They were soon replaced with 10 plains bison from Elk Island National Park and today the generations continue on.... continue below the picture...
Visitors to the Bison Enclosure in Riding National Park in Manitoba, Canada can view these incredible mammals at close range.

What started out as a press announcement for a hearing aid provider that was expanding from the U.K and U.S. to Canada ended up in finding a device that offers a source of treatment for Tinnitus sufferers. I started out looking at the device called Serenade, curious if it was a device being sold under yet a different name from another vendor or something unique. A few minutes of reading told me that this was something unique.
Here are several things that caught my attention –
- FDA Approved
- Developed at the University of California by researchers looking for sounds to help Tinnitus sufferers
- Research was funded by the American Tinnitus Association
This is not just a buy and turn on device. It is programmed specifically to the needs of its user. One thing that got my attention was that it can be programmed remotely by a certified audiologist from the provider whose press announcement I read earlier in the day.
This is not a device that offers amplification, so it is not to be confused with a hearing aid. The sounds it makes are meant to be played softly, in the background, while the users engages in normal daily activity. I have reached out to the company and have requested more information. Once I have learned a little more, I hope to have the chance to be able to give the Serenade unit a test, if it is determined that I am a candidate that would benefit from using it.
For more information, you can use this link to learn more.

South Florida home pricing rises 10 percent in February
Confidence in the real estate sector is growing as home prices, including distressed sales, grew 10 percent in February in each of South Florida’s counties.
In Miami-Dade County, the growth was at half a percent compared to January, according to CoreLogic.
On a month-over-month basis, Broward County home prices, including distressed sales, increased by 0.4 percent in February 2013 compared to the prior month.
In Palm Beach County, home prices, including distressed sales, climbed 1.1 percent in February compared to the prior 30-day period, according to CoreLogic.
The home pricing data will likely continue to fuel development of more residential communities. McGraw-Hill Construction’s data for February contracts for future construction points to continued strength in the residential sector.
Residential contracts in February grew to $266 million, a 25 percent increase on a year-over-year basis. On the other hand, non-residential contracts shrank to $104 million, a drop of 32 percent on last year.
Together, the two categories combined generated $369 million in contracts for future work, a 1 percent increase on a year-over-year basis.

MicroRNA-223 is known as a myeloid-enriched anti-inflammatory microRNA that is dysregulated in numerous inflammatory conditions. Here, we report that neutrophilic inflammation (wound response) is augmented in miR-223-deficient zebrafish, due pri- marily to elevated activation of the canonical nuclear factor kB (NF-kB) pathway. NF-kB over-activation is restricted to the basal layer of the surface epithelium, although miR-223 is detected throughout the epithe- lium and in phagocytes. Not only phagocytes but also epithelial cells are involved in miR-223-medi- ated regulation of neutrophils’ wound response and NF-kB activation. Cul1a/b, Traf6, and Tab1 are iden- tified as direct targets of miR-223, and their levels rise in injured epithelium lacking miR-223. In addi- tion, miR-223 is expressed in cultured human bron- chial epithelial cells, where it also downregulates NF-kB signaling. Together, this direct connection between miR-223 and the canonical NF-kB pathway provides a mechanistic understanding of the multi- faceted role of miR-223 and highlights the relevance of epithelial cells in dampening neutrophil activation.

Transport solutions firm Mowasalat will have an automated car parking facility at its sprawling compound in Abu Hamour in a few months from now.
The facility, to be implemented on experimental basis, would provide parking space for a minimum of 50 of the company’s luxury vehicles.
Mowasalat executive director Ahmed Busherbak al-Mansouri said the project was part of its ambitious long term plans, which included among others construction of car parks, several workshops and maintenance centres.
The next step could be the preliminary use of the automated system with a view to evaluate its efficiency and success, al-Mansouri said.
“There is no denying the fact that there is an increasing demand for parking areas in the country given the rise in the number of vehicles and the expansion in infrastructure,” he said.
As part of Mowasalat’s plans to build the automatic car parking facility, the company has signed a contract with the Venture Gulf Group and construction will take place shortly, al-Mansouri said.
He claimed the facility would be the first of its kind in the Middle East region.
As per the terms of contract, apart from undertaking construction, the Venture Gulf group will also impart training to Mowasalat personnel and support the operations of the automatic car park.
“The project advantages include space management, environment conservation, rationalisation of power consumption, and protection of vehicles from extreme weather conditions,” al-Mansouri added.
The decision to install the automatic car parking facility was taken following a visit by Mowasalat officials to a similar facility provided by the manufacturers in US and South Korea, it was announced yesterday.
Mowasalat senior business development director Ahmed al-Ansari said the company officials, headed by deputy general manager Waleed Raslan al-Abdullah visited similar projects functioning for more than 10 years in different locations with temperatures and humidity levels similar to that in Qatar and other Arab and GCC states.
Al-Ansari said the new facility in Qatar, once implemented, could save considerable space and help accommodate at least three times more vehicles than in a conventional space in normal circumstances.
“Owing to superior technological applications, the company will be able to park more of its vehicles at the designated facility,” he said.
Initially, the new facility would be used only for parking the company’s luxury cars, usually used for transporting the state’s VIP guests, al-Ansari said.
US-based manufacturers Parkmatic will supply the automatic car parking equipment. Company chairman Magdi “Max” Wassif, said the firm was hopeful of implementing more such automatic car parking facilities in Qatar in coming years.
“Areas like government offices and Hamad hospital are frequented by a large number of people every day and most arrive in single occupancy vehicles,” he pointed out.
In such circumstances, there will be more demands for setting up automatic car parking facilities, Wassif said.
He claimed his company has the largest market share in constructing automated car parks with over 1,000 automated systems of smart parking spaces around the world. Altogether there are around 5,000 automatic car parking facilities globally, said Wassif.
Venture Gulf officials chairman and CEO Saeed bin Abdul Azeez al-Nasr and vice chairman and chief operating officer Abdullah bin Abdulazeez al-Nasr were also present at the briefing yesterday.

In the Interest of H. G. D. et al.
James and Gena Clark, grandparents of two children, H. G. D. and H. D., appeal following the juvenile court's entry of a permanency order and its denial of their motions to intervene and for custody. The Clarks argue ten separate enumerations of error by the juvenile court. In short, they argue that the juvenile court erred by: (1) changing the case number on the removal and protective hearing orders to make them part of the pending dependency action; (2) holding a permanency hearing and awarding the Thomas County Division of Family and Children Services custody; (3) splitting physical and legal custody of the children; and (4) denying their motion to intervene. We disagree and affirm for the following reasons.
The record reflects that the Department of Human Services filed dependency actions 1 following a finding that the home H. G. D. and H. D. shared with their mother was filthy, that the mother was abusing methamphetamine, and domestic violence had been reported between the mother and her boyfriend. The children were removed to live with their maternal grandparents, the Clarks. However, while living with the Clarks, H. G. D. and H. D. began suffering from behavioral outbursts that necessitated a protective hearing. In particular, H. D., who was nine years old at the time, admitted to trying to harm or kill herself. She was later admitted to a mental health hospital. Additionally, hospital staff observed Mrs. Clark hitting H. G. D., who was three years old, and allowing H. D. to be physically abusive to H. G. D.
Following these incidents, on July 8, 2016, the juvenile court removed H. G. D. and H. D. from the custody of the Clarks and gave the Thomas County Division of Family and Children Services (“DFCS”) temporary custody.2 After H. D.'s release from the hospital, H. D. and H. G. D. were placed separately in local foster homes and visitation was suspended with their mother and the Clarks. H. D. has continued to suffer from suicidal ideation and self-harming behaviors and has been recommended for intensive psychiatric therapy. H. G. D. has begun pre-kindergarten, and his foster parents and teachers report no academic or behavioral issues.
Following these placements, the Clarks filed a motion for custody with the juvenile court alleging that DFCS had failed to file a dependency action against them. They also filed a motion to intervene in the permanency action regarding the children. At the permanency hearing on August 12, 2016, which the Clarks attended, the juvenile court determined that the safest placement for the children would be in DFCS custody. The juvenile court denied the Clarks' motion to intervene based on lack of standing and denied them custody of the children based on the evidence presented at the hearing that necessitated their removal from the custody of the Clarks in the first instance. This appeal followed.
1. The Clarks first argue that the juvenile court erred by changing the case number on the removal and protective hearing orders to make them part of the pending dependency actions. The Clarks argue that the removal order and protective hearing order appearing under the revised case numbers are void and should not be considered by this Court because the petitions for dependency resulting in these orders were filed under different case numbers. They further argue that the juvenile court cannot “circumvent the docketing system,” that it lacks valid grounds for modifying the orders, and it did not comply with the notice and hearing requirement set forth in OCGA § 15-11-32 (f). We disagree.
OCGA § 15-11-32 (f) requires the court to hold a hearing when a petition seeking relief under Section 15-11-32 is filed. See OCGA § 15-11-32 (f). However, none of the parties filed a petition seeking relief under OCGA § 15-11-32, thus a hearing under OCGA § 15-11-32 (f) was not required. Rather, Thomas County DFCS filed a dependency complaint with juvenile court so as to notify it of the problematic circumstances the children were facing while in the temporary custody of their grandparents, the Clarks. The juvenile court removed the children from the custody of the Clarks and after a preliminary protective hearing (which the Clarks attended), awarded custody of the children to DFCS. The case numbers on both the dependency removal order and preliminary protective hearing order were changed, nunc pro tunc, so as to be made part of the existing case of dependency. The juvenile court's change to the temporary custody arrangement thus operated as a change to its earlier order finding the children dependent and awarding the Clarks temporary custody. The juvenile court has the inherent authority to change, vacate, or modify its earlier temporary custody order if it found that doing so would be in the best interests of H. G. D. and H. D. See OCGA § 15-11-32 (b); In re A. V. B., 222 Ga. App. 241, 244 (2) (474 SE2d 114) (1996); In re K. B., 188 Ga. App. 199, 200 (2) (372 SE2d 476) (1988). The evidence in the record supports the juvenile court's finding that it was no longer in the best interests of the children to remain in the custody of the Clarks, and the juvenile court was authorized to change its order regarding temporary custody. We find no error here.
2. (a) The Clarks next argue that the juvenile court erred by holding a permanency hearing and entering an order awarding DFCS custody of the children. The Clarks suggest that there was a gap of approximately eight days during which the children were technically no longer in the care of DFCS because the complaints (which were initially filed under different case numbers) regarding the condition of the children under the Clarks' care were dismissed before custody was given to DFCS at the permanency hearing. And because the children were not technically in DFCS custody, the Clarks argue the juvenile court could not have a permanency hearing. The Clarks misunderstand the facts of this case.
The order removing the children from the Clarks' custody was filed on July 8, 2016. A preliminary protective hearing was held on July 11, 2016, whereby the children were found to be dependent and were placed in DFCS custody. On August 4, 2016, the juvenile court amended the case numbers on these orders so as to make them part of the existing case of dependency. That same day, the juvenile court dismissed the dependency complaint that was filed under a separate case number. Thus, the children remained in DFCS custody continuously, and the juvenile court did not err when it held the permanency hearing on August 12, 2016. The Clarks' argument therefore lacks merit.
(b) The Clarks further argue that a juvenile court may only remove a child from temporary custody where the child's parent completes the case plan or where the child is found dependent under care of temporary custodian, neither of which occurred here. Even if we were to assume, arguendo, that the Clarks' assertion is correct, the children were found dependent in the temporary custody of the Clarks at the July 11, 2016 hearing. Thus, we find this assertion of error meritless, as well.
(c) The Clarks argue that the juvenile court failed to comply with the order and hearing requirements set forth in OCGA § 15-11-181, and that a separate dependency hearing and order should have been entered with respect to their care of the children. But the children had already been found dependent and had been placed in the temporary custody of the Clarks because of their dependency. The juvenile court was not required to find the children dependent once more before changing its order regarding temporary custody of the children. Rather, pursuant to OCGA § 15-11-32 (b), the juvenile court could do so where it found the change to be in the best interests of the children.
Temporary custody is just that—temporary. A temporary custody award differs “in its nature and purpose from an award of permanent custody. The temporary award is intended to create an interim arrangement that serves the best interests of the child pending adjudication of the rights of the mother and father.” See Pace v. Pace, 287 Ga. 899, 900 (700 SE2d 571) (2010) (punctuation and citations omitted). Once a child has been adjudicated dependent and until permanent placement is established, the children are the responsibility of the court, and the court places them temporarily until a permanent placement can be found. Therefore, we cannot say that the juvenile court erred here.
3. The Clarks argue next that the juvenile court erred by giving DFCS physical custody of the children when it had already awarded legal custody to the Clarks. The Clarks are mistaken. The Clarks were given temporary physical and legal custody of the children on March 16, 2016. However the Clarks' physical and legal custody was terminated when the children were removed from their care via court order on July 8, 2016. Physical and legal custody of the children was then transferred to DFCS the same day by the same order terminating the Clarks' custody of the children. This enumeration is without merit.
4. Finally, the Clarks argue that the juvenile court erred in denying their motion to intervene because their status as “legal custodians” made them parties to the case, or at least granted them a right to intervene under OCGA § 9-11-24 (a). The Clarks further assert that they have a claim or defense that raises a common question of law or fact because the children were removed from their home based on Mrs. Clark's conduct and that they should have been granted a permissive intervention under OCGA § 9-11-24 (b). We disagree.
OCGA § 9-11-24 (a) (1) provides that an individual shall be permitted to intervene upon a timely application “[w]hen a statute confers an unconditional right to intervene[.]” The Clarks claim that their statutory right to intervene arises from their status as parties to the case, as that term is defined in OCGA § 15-11-2 (52). But OCGA § 15-11-2 (52), which defines a party to include a legal custodian, does not confer an “unconditional right to intervene;” rather, it merely defines a term. Moreover, at the time the Clarks filed their motion to intervene, they were no longer temporary legal custodians of the children because their custody of the children had been terminated eight days prior. Because the Clarks fail to point to any statute conferring upon them an “unconditional right to intervene,” their argument that the juvenile court wrongly denied them their right to intervene in the dependency action is without merit.
OCGA § 9-11-24 (b) (2) provides that an individual may intervene “[w]hen an applicant's claim or defense and the main action have a question of law or fact in common.” The Clarks argue that their claim or defense shares a common question of law or fact with the underlying dependency action because Mrs. Clark's behavior toward the children was the basis for the children's removal from their temporary custody. However, the underlying dependency action is a determination of the children's status in their mother's care. The Clarks' intervention in the case will not affect whether the mother can demonstrate that she is capable of caring for her children. As such, the juvenile court did not err in denying the Clarks' motion to intervene.
1. The dependency actions were given case numbers 136-16J-017 and 018.
2. The removal order was initially given different case numbers from the existing cases of dependency, but it was amended to be made part of the existing cases.
Judgment affirmed. McFadden, P. J., and Branch, J., concur.

At a Jim and Jennie and the Pinetops show a few years ago, you'd be lucky if you heard any music at all. Everyone would pack into whatever dingy club they were playing to shout lyrics, hoot and stomp their feet. Glasses clinked and clapping marked each upbeat. When asked to turn it up, the often unamplifed group just shrugged and played on.
Two years ago, this all changed. Jim and Jennie, a five-piece bluegrass band from Philadelphia, had to get serious. Part of this was natural, said singer-mandolinist Jennie Bedford.
"When we first started we didn't really know how to play our instruments that well," she said. "We had more energy than we had chops." They play at the Hideout (1354 W. Wabansia Ave.) on Thursday and Friday.
The band, together since 1997 with its core members all under 35, is a child by bluegrass standards. Although Bedford grew up with the music, and banjo player Brad Hutchison had been in groups since college, they still had a lot of practicing to do.
Then there was the "O Brother" factor.
"A little while ago our fiddle player Emma went into a bar where they were playing our CD. Some guy came in and told the bartender `I saw this movie,'" said Bedford. "Hey, at least he knew it was bluegrass."
When the Cohen brothers released "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" in 2000, they had little idea that it would spark a national interest in roots music.
The movie soundtrack's resulting tour is now in its second year and is doing well. Some of the tour's stars have become household names. But the trickle-down to other bluegrass artists has been minimal, said Jim and Jennie's label owner Howard Greynolds: "For some people, it's this year's dinner music."
Bedford pointed out that bluegrass had a history of mainstream popularity. "It's always linked to a movie. In the '60s it was "Bonnie and Clyde," in the '70s it was "Deliverance" -- and those waves lasted long enough to make some people's careers."
Bluegrass is not a fad to many. Sharon Watts of Bluegrass Unlimited magazine said there are more than 1,300 bands recording and touring in the genre. Each summer, these bands play at nearly 500 mountain music festivals.
Bedford said these festivals are the true testing ground for any up-and-coming grass player. "Everyone stays up all night and plays the familiar repertoire. A lot of people wait to see how well you can play the songs that they know before they'll even clap. It gets really unnerving."
Unlike many of their peers, Jim and Jennie shun the slickness and technical virtuosity that Bedford sees as the genre's imitation of modern country. Instead they focus on a `haunted' sound which is part of the older bluegrass tradition.
Their most recent album, "One More In the Cabin" is a reflection of this. Reedy, two-octave harmonies and Hutchison's three-finger Earl Scruggs-style banjo-picking stand out over the train-whistle fiddle and trademark bouncing bass of Eric Levenson to give the band a unique yet timeless sound.
All 14 of the songs are originals. Penned half by Bedford and half by guitarist/singer Jim Krewson, the album reaches back to the era before Bill Monroe's bluegrass to incorporate traditional country and even a lonesome blend of old spirituals.
Now, at a Jim and Jennie concert, you're more likely to see fans sitting down quietly as the band flies through each song with confidence. Like old time bluegrass fans, they'll clap after solos, request favorites and remark later how much they enjoyed the particular version of some standard. Instead of remaining drunken amateurs, both the band and the audience have become pros.
Whether it was Jim and Jennie's music or "O Brother" that got those fans interested, they are part of a new generation changing the face of bluegrass.
Bedford doesn't hesitate to acknowledge that this enthusiasm might be part of a fad. "And it could backfire. It could be like swing," she said.
"Bluegrass addiction comes once you get below the surface of what you can buy. It does drive some people nuts but if you love it, you really get into it," she said. "It just takes over."

Ennio Morricone, the Italian composer best known for scoring the likes of Sergio Leone's The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and John Carpenter's The Thing, has died at the age of 91.
Morricone passed away in a clinic in Rome several days after breaking his femur, according to the Guardian, who confirmed the death via his lawyer.
It's difficult to overstate just how massive Morricone's contribution was to film and television. His IMDb page has 520 credits, running right the way through from the early 1960s to the present day.
Morricone scored some of the most famous movies of all time, including Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Western trilogy, Terrence Malick's Days of Heaven, and Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Original Score.
Since the news of his death broke, filmmakers, creatives, and celebrities have already taken to Twitter to pay tribute to the legend.
Where to even begin with iconic composer Ennio Morricone? He could make an average movie into a must see, a good movie into art, and a great movie into legend. He hasn't been off my stereo my entire life. What a legacy of work he leaves behind. RIP. https://t.co/qZX6qE10ke
— edgarwright (@edgarwright) July 6, 2020
Morricone's music extended beyond his prolific film and TV work. He also composed the 1978 FIFA World Cup theme, and has conducted live orchestras at a number of large venues across the globe.

Hawaii joins states that mandate lawyers’ competence in technology
Hawaii has become the latest state to adopt the duty of technology competence for lawyers.
Several amendments to Hawaii’s Rules of Professional Conduct went into effect Jan. 1, including revisions to Rule 1.1, which requires that a lawyer provide competent representation to clients.
According to the Hawaii Supreme Court, which adopted these amendments in August 2021, Comment 6 of this rule now reads: “To maintain the requisite knowledge and skill, a lawyer should engage in continuing study and education and keep abreast of changes in the law and its practice, including the benefits and risks associated with relevant technology.”
The court’s order also amended Rule 5.3, which pertains to responsibilities regarding nonlawyer assistants. Comment 2 of this rule now states that “reasonable efforts should include careful consideration of the use of technology and office resources connected to the internet, external data sources and external vendors providing services relating to client data and the use of client data.”
The ABA approved an amendment to the Model Rules of Professional Conduct in 2012, to reinforce that lawyers have a duty to be competent in technology. According to LawSites, which reported on the changes in Hawaii, 40 states have since adopted this duty in their rules.

We have a summerhouse for rent in the region Värmland (little Canada) in the countryside next to beautiful nature.
The city of Karlstad is only a half hour away by car, and to the village Kil it is only 15 minutes.
So you have everything you need, not far away.
There is a lot of nice day-trips to make around here. Such as Kilsravinerna, Ättestupan and Renstasnipan with nice view. The house is situated on the same ground as our own house, where we also have a Bed&Breakfast. There are a number of lakes in the area with nice bathing places and fishing waters. In one of the lakes 5km from the house, we have a boat.
So why not come and spend a day in the boat fishing or just relaxing and enjoying the beautiful surroundings.


West Ham manager Slaven Bilic has said that Reece Oxford needs to stay grounded after his nomination for the Golden Boy award.
Oxford was recently nominated for the Golden Boy accolade alongside the likes of Marcus Rashford, Gabriel Jesus and Kylian Mbappe.
The young midfielder/defender is currently on loan to Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga, but is yet to find a regular place in the team.
Speaking to The Mirror, Bilic said this:
If he goes one way and thinks he is Mbappe then that’s wrong. He needs to use this in the right way.
He has got it in him, get his place and start playing regularly. Hopefully he will get that in Germany and it’ll be great to play in the Bundesliga.
Many West Ham fans see him as the best young prospect at the club and are expecting big things from him in the future.
He made his debut against Arsenal as a 16-year-old and was heavily-praised for his impressive performance on the day.
Oxford has failed to push on as much as he would have liked since then and spent time on-loan to Reading in the Championship last season.
He often featured as a central defender, although he was not included in the starting XI of their play-off final loss to Huddersfield.

Someone gets it. Someone feels EXACTLY like me. Right down to the tiniest detail. I am not alone in this crazy place of discontented contentment.
I am going to share some excerpts with you from the introduction
" i had much to be happy about. I was married to Jamie.....we two delightful daughters....I was a writer...i lived in my favourite city/.....
but all too often I sniped at my husband, i lost my temper easily, i suffered bouts of melancholy, listlessness and free-floating guilt."
"i wasnt depressed and i wasnt having a midlife crisis, but i was suffering from a midlife malaise - a recurrent sense of discontent and almost a feeling of disbelief. Can this be me?'
'But though at times I felt dissatisfied, that something was missing, I also never forgot how fortunate I was.....'
'When i stepped back to reflect on my resolutions, i was struck their small scale.T ake January - Go to bed earlier. and Tackle a nagging task. These didnt sound dramatic or colourful or particularly ambitious.
'Other peoples radical happiness projects such as Thoreau's move to Walden Pond and Liz Gilberts move to Italy, India and Indonesia, exhilarated me. ...... But my project wasnt like that.....I didnt want to undertake that kind of extraordinary change./.....And more important I didnt want to reject my life. I wanted to change my life by finding more happiness in my own kitchen..../.'
'...my real worry about my project: Was it supremely self-centred to spend so much effort on my own happiness?'
(the author goes on to quote various philosophers and modern scientists and concludes)
"....shows that happy people are more altuistic, more productive, more helpful, more likable, more creative, more resilient, more interested in others, friendlier and healthier. Happy people make better friends, colleauges and citizens. I wanted to be one of those people."
I have only just finished chapter 1 but I can already see that this book will be a valuable read.
Change isnt in the big things. It is in the tiny details of our everyday lives that we either fail to see because we are too busy or we fail to acknowledge the weight of seemingly small decisions that have far-reaching effects.

The World Gold Council recently conducted a huge piece of consumer research surveying 18,000 people across India, China, USA, Canada, Germany and Russia.
Participants included retail investors, those who buy gold jewellery and people who don’t buy gold at all. The aim was to discover how people think and feel about gold and why, what motivates them to buy it, and what obstacles they may need to overcome to do so.
Here’s a snapshot of what they discovered
- 81% of people believe gold jewellery is valuable enough to pass down to the next generation as an heirloom
- 61% of retail investors trust gold more than they do fiat currencies
- 67% of people believe gold is a good safeguard against inflation/currency fluctuations
- 66% of potential new gold investors don’t know enough about gold, how to buy it or think it’s not affordable for them
“The statistic that really excites me is 38% of the people we surveyed have never bought gold in the past but are warm to the idea of buying gold in the future. This represents a huge opportunity for the gold industry,” says Alistair Hewitt, Head of Market Intelligence for WGC.
So what’s stopping people buying gold? The survey showed concerns for consumers lie in understanding and guaranteeing the purity of the gold they are buying and the mechanics of how to buy gold. 48% of those who haven’t bought gold say trust barriers are preventing them.
NZ Gold Merchants have been trading in precious metals since 1972 so we know a thing or two about gold. It’s a topic we love talking about and we are always happy to share our knowledge and experience with our customers. If you’re sitting on the fence, unsure of whether buying gold is right for you, or just want more information about how it’s done, give us a call, we’re always happy to talk.

By Kaitlyn Wilson
The McCreary County Water District held a public meeting on June 29, 2020 in order to discuss the human, environmental, and financial aspects of the upcoming MCWD Sanitary Sewer Collection System Expansion – Phase One project. Through this project, 305 customers in the Smithtown-Stearns area who are not currently connected to the McCreary County Water District’s sanitary sewer collection system will be connected, expanding the system from 1,140 users to 1,445. The $3.6 million project consists of approximately 66,500 feet of PVC sewer line extensions, 15 manholes, 275 grinder pump stations, and other related components, such as air release valves and flushing connections.
This endeavor will be funded through a low interest loan from the Kentucky Division of Water, called the Clean Water State Revolving Loan, which is funded in part by the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) through a grant. The $3.2 million loan is on a 30-year term, with 0.50% interest. However, this loan does offer $450,000 of loan forgiveness. Additional funding has been obtained through the USDA in the form of a $400,000 loan for rural development that also has 0.50% interest. Combined, this covers the total project cost of $3,644,500.
Though in the past customers have witnessed an increase in rates in order to cover the loan for projects such as this one, this is not currently the case. During the Monday meeting, Water District Supervisor Stephen Whitaker said that rates will not increase. “The amount of loan forgiveness that we’re getting on this, plus the number of additional customers we’re going to get offsets the additional loan,” Whitaker said. “We plan to not have any rate increase associated with this project.” The current user rates are $24.19, based upon a usage of 2,000 gallons a month. Customers should not expect to see a rise in their monthly rate. In addition to not having a rate increase, customers included in the expansion can expect to see no cost of participation. Whitaker said that the McCreary County Water District will be setting the tanks free of charge to the customers.
Many of the users in this area either have failing septic systems or discharge directly into the environment. “This is a crucial area for our community, especially where the watershed area is with some of those failing septic systems that we have in that area. We want to make sure we take care of our watershed area,” said Whitaker. So, through this project, the McCreary County Water District sewer expansion will better spread the cost of service across more customers while also protecting the environment from failing septic tanks and straight pipes. “The district has completed an environmental information document, which has not indicated any significant effects on historical properties or the environment,” said Judy Hachey, the Community Development Specialist for the Lake Cumberland Area Development District. For more information, relevant documents are currently available for review at the McCreary County Water District’s drive through window, located at the McCreary County Water District, 456 N. Hwy. 27, Whitley City, Ky, during regular business hours. Citizens may also review these documents online through the district’s website, www.mccrearywater.com.

It was warm, and really comfortable today in Okinawa♡
Today is the last day of my holidays. I got up late, so just had a cup of tea. And, I went to my favorite pie take-out place, “おしゃれ”. Freshly made is the best!!
HOW TO BUY
First, chose bags to put pies in. Boxes available when you buy 20 or more. After take bags, take the tongs and start to chose pies. Enjoy♡
There are a lot of flavor of pies. I recognized 16 flavors of the pies today, for example, Blueberry(the most popular), Chocolate, Beniimo(purple sweet potato), Taimo(also Okinawan potato :)), Custard, Apple and Cheese. The pies are baked one after another. Please set your minds when nothing is left. Just wait.
I bought 6 pies for my lunch and for breakfast of my husband and me(of tomorrow).
This shop is only for take-out, so I eat the pies at home. The dish is made by my favorite artist of Okinawan pottery.
I bought 6 pies, and the flavors are custard, chocolate, taimo, soybean flour, chocolate(triangle) and beniimo. In ordinary way, they sells 2 kinds of shape of pie; triangle and half-moon. Soybean flour pie is their new product, and its shape is rectangle.
I ate chocolate pie. YUMMY! It has rich chocolate cream inside.
I also ate soybean flour pie. It tastes tender♡ It really zesty…
That’s all. It begins raining! Today was pretty good for me.
Thank you for reading♡
please “helpful” on my review if it helps you…

This is actually a really nice guest house, well appointed and comfortable. What sets it apart from most others though is the massive scale of extras Elsie and Drew have created and provided for their guests.
The rooms are lavishly decorated with matching and themed ornaments and fittings, the en-suite is stacked with toiletries, there is coffee and tea in large quantities and varieties, with about a dozen choices of biscuits.
The piece de resistance though was the long breakfast tables - these were packed with every variety of fruit available, home made jam, marmalade etc etc. And not just toast but half a dozen types of bread.
The breakfast menu was just as extensive, with endless permutations and combinations available and listed. The breakfast was pretty good, and did not disappoint.
Clearly the overall intention is to satisfy any whim of the guests, but on a scale that takes your breath away. Elsie - it must be such a lot of work, and so much of it beyond actual requirements.
You could cut back a lot on the scale and variety, and it would still be a lovely guest house that people would be happy to have stayed in.
Would definitely recommend unless you are of a minimalist mindset.More

Showing results for: Agroecology
In this report, international non-profit Forum for the Future calls for “a just transition to a regenerative agriculture system” in the United States. The report, funded by the Walmart Foundation, identifies opportunities and barriers to scaling regenerative agriculture in the US.
On July 16, 2020, the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network and Foresight4Food co-hosted the first of a series of eDialogues on the future of small-scale farming. The first session gave an overview of the challenges smallholders face and opportunities for improvement in yields and standards of living. A video recording and written summary (PDF link) of the event are now available online.
This paper by FCRN member Roger Leakey proposes a three-stage process to improve smallholder incomes, yields, nutrition and environmental performance in tropical agriculture, focusing on Africa. Leakey argues that food policies developed in industrialised nations do not always recognise that farming systems are very different across the world.
FCRN member Hayo van der Werf has co-authored this perspective paper, which argues that current Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodologies tend to favour intensive farming systems and misrepresent organic and agroecological systems.
This book describes Lume, a method for analysing the economic and ecological impacts of agroecological farming systems. It includes a case study of family farms in a region of Brazil affected by droughts.
French non-profit Solagro has released an English version of this report, which presents the Afterres2050 scenario: a bottom-up assessment of the future of the French food system. The scenario was developed in consultation with farmers, foresters, nutritionists, community representatives, etc. as well as a multidisciplinary scientific council.
According to this meta-analysis of 60 studies, cover crops on agricultural land can increase soil microbial abundance, activity, and diversity relative to land left bare between crops, with the effect varying with climate and how the farm is managed (e.g. tilling). The paper does not discuss the extent to which this change in soil microbiome affects crop yields.
This book examines a variety of regenerative farming systems, including agroecology, indigenous food systems, small-scale fisheries, food sharing, coffee micro-mills, foraging and reuse of food waste.
This report from Canada’s National Farmers Union examines how climate change is likely to affect agriculture in Canada, and sets out a strategy for the food system to contribute to mitigating the climate crisis. It argues that low-input, low-emission styles of agriculture should be incentivised.
This book describes the experiences of a growing minority of Latino/a immigrant farm owners in the United States. According to the book, many of these people use farming practices from their home countries, such as growing several crops at the same time or using integrated pest management.
This report from the Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience (CAWR) at Coventry University examines how farming in China can move away from a dependence on “industrial agriculture” (defined here as excessive and inefficient use of fertilisers and pesticides) towards agroecological systems (including practices such as lower stocking densities, using manure instead of synthetic fertilisers, growing diverse crops and using soil-building techniques).
In this blog post, Samuel Smith of international sustainability non-profit Forum for the Future sets out research he intends to conduct on how regenerative agriculture is understood, the strategies that could be used to scale it up, and how the food system would be affected by widespread conversion to regenerative agriculture.
The final report of the UK’s Food, Farming and Countryside Commission sets out 15 recommendations to policymakers, business and communities across the areas of healthy food, a ‘fourth agricultural revolution’ based on agroecological principles, and rural communities.
The second edition of Nature’s Matrix sets out the recent state of debate around conservation and agriculture. It argues in favour of small-scale agroecology and food sovereignty.
This report from the FAO’s High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE) explores how agroecology and other innovative approaches to food systems (such as organic agriculture, agroforestry, permaculture, climate-smart agriculture, nutrition-sensitive agriculture and sustainable intensification) can support sustainable agriculture and food security.
This book, by Nicola Randall and Barbara Smith, provides a summary of agricultural ecosystems around the world and uses case studies to illustrate the biological issues and solutions associated with several types of farming system.
This book presents a complete introduction to the political and institutional aspects of agroecology, covering the whole food system. It sets out a new concept known as political agroecology.

Jason “Mayhem” Miller allegedly broke a guys ribs in a bar fight just days before his domestic violence arrest, TMZ Sports has learned.
Our law enforcement sources tell us they recently responded to a fight at a San Fernando Valley bar. When they arrived, the altercation was over, and we’re told no one wanted to press charges, so everyone was allowed to leave.
However, the next day, one of the people involved in the brawl went to the hospital … and was diagnosed with several cracked ribs.
We’re told at that point, cops took an incident report for felony battery. They’re expected to turn the case over to the L.A. district attorney sometime in the near future … and they’ll decide whether or not to charge Mayhem for the bar fight.
Of course, we broke the story last week, Miller — who has a long history of trouble — was arrested for felony domestic violence after a woman accused the fighter of roughing her up early Friday morning.
During the domestic violence arrest, Mayhem didn’t go easy, with cops using a taser in order to slap the cuffs on him.
Police said the alleged victim had injuries to her face and neck.
That case is still active … and depending on what the D.A. decides, Miller could be hit with more charges from a totally separate alleged incident.

According to the American Heart Association, half of the men who die suddenly of coronary heart disease do not exhibit symptoms. The AHA also says that between 70 and 89 percent of sudden cardiac events occur in men. Both of those factors only highlight the importance men must place on protecting themselves against heart disease. The AHA notes that the steps that can help men reduce their risk for heart disease vary depending on their ages. For example, men in their 20s can make sure they exercise regularly, avoid smoking and secondhand smoke, and schedule routine wellness visits with their physicians. Men in their 50s may need to be more diligent in their efforts to prevent heart disease, especially if they have already been diagnosed with conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol or diabetes. While young men and older men may need to employ different strategies in their fights against heart disease, men of all ages can benefit from routine exercise, nutritious diets and healthy lifestyles. More information about combatting heart disease can be found at www.heart.org.

As the director and co-writer of the Dark Knight trilogy of Batman films, as well as the prime creative power behind a slew of other modern classics, including Memento, The Prestige and the mega-blockbuster Inception, Christopher Nolan has been responsible for more than $3.5 billion in worldwide box office sales while earning top-notch reviews for his highly inventive and mind-bending projects.
And this year, he catapults even further into a position of Hollywood power, producing and consulting on Zack Snyder’s star-studded Man of Steel, the latest film adaptation of history’s most iconic superhero.
But Nolan wasn’t always lauded as the master of the modern blockbuster. His first feature film, Following, went unnoticed upon its initial release in 1998. It centers on a lonely London man who spends his days choosing random people to follow around the city for hours at a time. While it starts out as a creepy character study, Following quickly grows into something more thrilling: a twisty, Hitchcock-worthy suspense tale as the man eventually chooses the wrong person to shadow and finds his world coming apart at the seams.
The film tanked. It didn’t even break $50,000 in its tiny theatrical run. However, after Nolan’s explosion in popularity, Following has retroactively taken on surprising new life as a cult classic.
Here, one of this era’s most celebrated and trusted filmmakers sheds light on his early strides, his creative process and how even a young British storyteller playing with toys and a simple camera can go on to achieve worldwide acclaim.
Q: Tell us about Following. It’s gotten popular lately. What was the inspiration for the film?
A: It primarily came from living in Central London. I got interested in the idea that as you walk through the crowded streets—just masses of people—and you start picking one person to focus on and wonder about them, it shifts your perspective. Who are they, and where are they coming from?
I combined [that with] the notion of somebody breaking down those protocols, such as when you’re walking down a crowded street, you don’t keep pace with a stranger. Suddenly, this man [in the film] is keeping pace.
Around the same time, I got interested in the idea of seeing a door that was smashed open and was flimsy but was keeping people out. Why? Because of those protocols—like a door is a door and you can’t just go through it without permission. So breaking down those protocols was the key to everything.
Q: Do you remember the first project you ever worked on?
A: If it gives you any clue, my first kid film was Space Wars. I would take the blockbusters of the day, the Bond films of the time, and turn them around somewhat. Eventually, I did more experimental films, like [1970s eccentric filmmaker] Nicolas Roeg’s.
Q: You started out with no money. How did you make your first feature-length movie?
A: I worked out that I could afford to buy 15 minutes of raw film stock a week, and we shot one day a week. I thought it would take three months [to finish], but it wound up taking a year.
We were all working jobs during the week but would get together once a week to shoot and get five minutes or eight minutes done. The whole film was done in first and
Given what I now know about how much takes can improve performances, we stumbled into it being so good. We rehearsed up to six months ahead, as if we were performing on stage, where you can’t fumble and just stop but have to work through mistakes.
Q: As a director, how did you learn how to work with different actors?
A: I read Stanislavsky’s Method acting books to understand the process. I dabbled a tiny bit in acting. I knew people from the drama society in college and got them to fill all the roles in Following. I just try to tell people where to cross on screen, and let them do their thing. Stay out of the way and let them find a way to be real.
Q: Your first few films, Following and Memento, aren’t linear at all, but even your most straightforward movies can’t be called “chronological.” Why do you approach storytelling that way?
A: Graham Swift’s book Waterland effortlessly bounces through history to tell a synthesized story. So do the films of Nicolas Roeg or Alan Parker’s Pink Floyd—The Wall, with parallel strands of imagination and history.
When I look at how we receive stories in real life, they’re almost never chronological. You read a newspaper headline and get the vague idea, but as you read the article, it’s filling the information in from all the directions.
Two days later, you learn more through another article on the subject. We very rarely get the full story on anything in chronological fashion.
Q: Did you write Inception all the way through or in parts?
A: I’ve done all my scripts since Following in linear fashion. I tried to think how it would feel as an audience watching it so you get the rhythm of the film.
A big problem is that people don’t like to read a lot of stage directions, and the form of the screenplay invites you to focus on the dialogue. With my scripts, you don’t really get a sense of what the structure is going to be.
Interestingly, all the films that I’ve done, they’ve followed the same pattern as Following. You have to show the reader how the story is going to work.
Q: Your films get a lot of Hitchcock comparisons. Do you consider him an influence?
A: I became a big Hitchcock fan later in life. They’re more grown up films.
I did remember seeing the shower scene from Psycho in a TV special and being afraid to shower for years. Strangers on a Train was a big favorite of my life.
Q: You mentioned remaking James Bond films as a kid. Would you do a James Bond film at this point?
A: I’d love to at some point. But the truth is, I’ve been busy ripping them off.
Everybody around the world loves James Bond, but not like the English. You watch his movies with the family after opening presents on Christmas Day.
Q: What films do you have left to make?
A: The favorite script of mine I’ve written is about Howard Hughes, but I never had time to make it.
I always wanted to do a science fiction film, and so far I guess Inception is halfway there. It would be fun to explore at some point.
Q: Lastly, tell us about working with Michael Caine.
A: Personally, I think his contribution to acting is “never blink.”
He made very specific rules in a book and video several years back. He comes completely prepared and knows just what he wants to do—never asks for another take and swears he never has.
He’ll try things a different way for you, but he’s very focused and will never waste your time and money while filming.

SO HOW EXACTLY DOES Gambling Affect YOUR DAILY LIFE?
Gambling, in accordance with some experts, is only a game of chance wherein the participant, more often than not, stakes a certain sum of money to try his/her luck. Gambling is, however, more of a habit than anything else. So how does one get into the habit of gambling?
So that you can understand the nature of gambling, it is important to know about the other forms of addictions that exist. These include things like smoking, alcohol consumption, etc. Gambling because the addiction model refers to the fact that gambling, by its very nature, involves an element of chance.
To comprehend gambling addiction, you should understand why people take part in it. The prevailing concern that behind gambling addiction is the need for reward or a form of salience. Many people who take part in gambling are young and don’t yet have the self-discipline to regulate their own urges. Gambling is, thus, usually required as a form of self-medication for a number of negative emotions including anger, frustration, jealousy, anxiety, shame, and sadness.
The next type of addiction is named the gambling use disorder. This type of addiction is caused by the repeated searching for external signs of success, thus reinforcing the necessity for more gambling to fuel the positive feelings. Often, this can result in compulsive gambling and even alcoholism. As one becomes alert to the many negative impact these addictions can have on a person’s life, they may feel the need to get treatment for themselves.
Another form of addictions is characterized by higher risk tolerance. In cases like this, the person will gamble more even if the payoff will mean an increased risk. This higher risk can be associated with an elevated thrill once the risk outweighs the reward. That’s where probably the most common characteristics of gambling addiction commence to appear, such as: thrill seeking, the desire to take risks, a need for novelty, competition, pressure, power, and the capability to endure pain.
The final type of addiction is named the problem gambling disorder. This is actually a little different than higher risk gambling since it centers on the specific act of gambling. The issue gambler may spend countless levels of money on a game of chance so that you can overcome worries of failure. This sort of addiction has been called “the numb spot” because the problem gambler often feels numbness and cannot experience any type of pleasure. This is just about the most serious forms of addictions because it can destroy the lives of the people closest to the issue gambler.
Today, there are lots of rehab centers that offer treatment for problem gambling. Most of these centers are equipped with fully equipped and expert counselors and therapists. The problem gamblers are encouraged to seek out the help they need and to have the professional assistance that they need in order to get over a gambling addiction. Those that suffer from this addiction are often offered the chance at a standard life if they will only seek treatment. Unfortunately, lots of people view these programs as a waste of time because of the fears of failure.
When considering all of these various gambling addiction symptoms, it is easy to see how the problem can range between just fun to pathological. For most people, though, just having the compulsion to gamble occasionally does not necessarily mean they have an addiction problem. For others, however, gambling addiction is frequently characterized by a number of issues that lead to the individuals addiction.
For those who gamble infrequently and casually, it can be easy to see the impact that their gambling addiction has on their everyday lives. Many gamblers feel some guilt or shame about their actions. Because of the lack of skills and understanding of betting, they often do not make the right decisions with regards to betting. Because they’re emotionally attached to their winnings, they often feel a negative impact if they lose money on a game. They might be afraid to gamble again, and this may cause them to feel unworthy and struggling to move forward making use of their lives.
An issue gambler will most likely use their money and influence to convince themselves they are better than everyone else. In other words, a lottery addict will set themselves up as a winner above everyone else, even though they are likely losing lots of money. The gamblers’ mind is designed to separate real from imaginary, which is the reason why many gamblers will claim to possess won things that they have never won. This distorted reality causes them a lot 온카지노 of stress, that may be detrimental with their health.
While gambling games have many positive benefits, the negative impact could be very overwhelming for most people. In order to avoid the negative impact that betting is wearing their lives, lotteries and other gambling games should be limited to experienced players only, and only when they have mastered the strategy that will help them maximize their expected outcomes. Following these steps, and making sure that you know your outcomes before placing any bets, will assist you to limit the negative impact that betting generally has on your daily life.
