Originally from Massachusetts, Nicolas Falacci is a true “Gunky” who became a television writer, producer and is the co-creator and executive producer of the CBS show “Numb3rs.” Nick got started climbing over 20 years ago after finishing college at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. With no career or girlfriend at the time, he thought it would be a great idea to become a high-altitude mountaineer. But, since he lived in New York City he had to start on the boulders of Central Park and cliffs of the Shawangunks. Nick is also an accomplished photographer and writer; in 2003, he wrote "A Climber's Guide to Popular Manhattan Boulder Problems."
What was the most significant moment in your life? How?The most significant moment in my life came when I was climbing Iguana, a 5.11c/d at Stony Point in Los Angeles. That’s where I happened to meet my future wife and writing partner, Cheryl Heuton. That one day of climbing led to a family and a career in television.
Who's a climber you have respect for? Why?I really respect Lynn Hill, not just for her groundbreaking climbing accomplishments, but also for the kind of person she is. I met her once on a cold autumn day in the Gunks and she was determined to have fun despite the temperature. She shared runs on top-ropes and was gracious, friendly and entirely unpretentious. It didn’t matter she was hanging out with climbers who climbed several grades below her. She just wanted to climb and hang out.

Why do you climb?I climb for a number of reasons. The first and most obvious reason is for the simple physical pleasure of strenuous movement in high places. Another, more emotional, reason is the instant gratification of facing a challenge and succeeding. And lastly, the philosophical reason I climb is that climbing feels like a direct, tactile connection with the universe. When I climb the features on a rock face, it feels like I am discovering and interpreting the organization and structure that arises out of the randomness of the universe.
What's your favorite: bouldering, sport climbing, traditional climbing, ice climbing, gym climbing, or alpine climbing? Why?	I love all aspects of climbing, but my favorite type of climbing is hard, steep face-climbing. My main focus is enjoying the movement over rock, but ultimately, the most rewarding type of climbing for me is when I’m placing my own gear. On a very basic level, climbing is about adventure and self-reliance.
What must we pass on to the next generation of climbers?I think it’s important that the next generation of climbers have a sense of responsibility and community. Responsibility to the natural environment and understanding the impact we climbers have on it. And a sense of community so that we, as climbers, can present ourselves to the non-climbing world in a manner that allows climbers to be taken seriously when it comes to issues such as access.
What does the climbing community need to fix?I think the climbing community has been heading in the right direction once it finally emerged from the disastrous “bolt wars” of the 1980s. With the creation and success of the Access Fund and the emergence of so many local climbing coalitions around the country, I’m not sure there’s anything to be “fixed.” We just need to continue to build on the great work being done.
Who embodies climbing, as a person?Dave Graham is so intense and gets so much satisfaction out of climbing  he embodies that zeal and passion I remember having when I first started climbing. His joy for finding cool and challenging moves is infectious.
If you could go climbing anywhere, where would you go? Why?If I could go climbing anywhere, first stop would probably be the Gunks. People always talk about the incredibly exposed easy-to-moderate routes there, but the real gems of the Gunks are the 5.10s that blast through huge roofs and multi-tiered overhangs. The number of mega-exposed, mega-classic well-protected 5.10 lines there is just mind-blowing.

After the Gunks, my next stop would be Australia. I’ve wanted to climb at Mt. Arapiles ever since I first saw photos of the place. The rock is just exquisite. The textures, the colorations, the lines and positions just make it look incredibly enticing.
How can we improve our sport?I think climbing can be improved by continuing the development of local climbing advocacy groups and coalitions and by the continued support of the Access Fund. It’s also long overdue that climbing became an Olympic sport.

Tell me about the CBS drama "Numb3rs."Numb3rs is a crime drama about that follows Don Eppes, an FBI agent working in Los Angeles, and his younger brother, Charlie, a genius-level math professor. Numb3rs demonstrates the extraordinary power and capabilities of applying mathematical concepts and techniques to crime-solving problems. By focusing on the interaction of two brothers from such vastly different backgrounds, the show is also, to a large degree, about family and relationships.
Tell me about this season's premiere episode "High Exposure."This season’s premiere episode of Numb3rs is called “High Exposure” and anyone who’s climbed in the Gunks will instantly recognize where the title comes from. This season, Numb3rs picks up where it left off last year with Charlie Eppes losing his security clearance and is no longer able to help the FBI.
The episode starts off when a pair of climbers is brutally murdered while climbing in the mountains and a large uncut diamond is found in the chalk bag of one of the climbers. To unravel this mystery, the FBI must enter the world of climbers and climbing  from indoor gyms, to bouldering locales, to a secret crag deep in the Angeles National Forest.
All the climbing scenes and stunts were shot at local L.A. climbing areas with local climbers.
When is it?The season premiere of Numb3rs airs Friday, October 3rd, 2008, 10:00 EST on CBS.

The EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM is so fast that... How fast is it? Shooting outdoors on a sunny day at ISO 100 with a Canon EOS 30D and the lens wide-open, the required exposure exceeded the camera's maximum shutter speed of 1/8000 sec. I had to stop down to f/1.6 to get proper exposure with the least possible depth of field. On a cloudy (really cloudy, not a "cloudy bright") day I was able to shoot wide-open at ISO 100 and get good exposures at 1/1600 sec, which produced tack-sharp images with a delightfully shallow depth of field.
Even at f/1.6, the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM delivers good bokeh. This characteristic is generally considered to be a product of the aperture's shape (note the almost perfectly circular out-of-focus highlight) and spherical aberration that's inherently produced by a lens.
Bokeh is an optical buzzword derived from the Japanese word for "fool" (as in it's not nice to fool Mother Nature) and is used to describe the pleasing quality of an image's out-of-focus areas. A little more subjective than the Richter scale, most photographers know good bokeh when they see it, even if they don't know the term. At f/1.2, the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM produces a pleasant bokeh.
For a while I stopped being a fan of Skylight, UV, or even protection filters, but putting a scuff mark on the front of my (expensive) EF 10-22mm zoom convinced me otherwise. Similarly, you'll want to invest in a high-quality 72mm Skylight (or whatever) filter to protect the front element of a $2000 lens like this one. While filter shopping you might also want to pick up a Neutral Density filter to let you use the lens at its widest aperture on sunny days. A lens hood is also a good idea, but while there's a nice pouch included in the box, the (ES-79II) lens hood is a $50 option.
To create this faux cyanotype I photographed Lorie using only the window light coming through my back door. (The cyanotype was invented by Sir John Herschel in 1842 and was the first successful non-silver photographic printing process. It's blue, hence the name.) Image was captured directly in monochrome using the Canon EOS 30D's blue toning capabilities. Exposure was 1/125 sec at f/2.8 at ISO 320. Camera was in Shutter Priority mode and deliberately underexposed by 1/3 stop to increase shadows and blue saturation.
To paraphrase Speed TV's Tom Hnatiw (www.dreamcargarage.com): Do you need a lens like this? If you are a professional photographer the stunning image quality Canon's EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM delivers is what you want and your clients expect. If you shoot weddings and portraits, the ability to capture luminous low-light portraits gives you an edge in capturing that decisive moment, and can make the different between a good shot and a great one. Do you want a lens like this? Oh yeah, but it's still heavy.

Twice, the Flemish Tax Administration has recently expanded its position on split purchases to include the split registration of securities and investments. When securities or investments are purchased by the parents, who buy the usufruct and by the children, who buy the bare property, the funds needed to complete the purchase of bare ownership cannot have been previously donated for that purpose. If they have, gift tax must be paid in order to avoid inheritance tax on the value of the full ownership of those securities or investments.
A gift of funds is made.
The beneficiaries make a split purchase together with the donors. The donors buy the usufruct; the beneficiaries, the bare ownership.
The Flemish Tax Administration holds that, in such a case, the assets purchased in this way are deemed to be part of the donor’s estate in full ownership. Inheritance tax will thus be due on the value of the full ownership of the assets thus purchased.
The donation was subject to gift tax before the purchase.
This position has recently been amplified twice by the issuance of two statements to the effect that the above stipulations also apply to a split registration of securities and investments, and to a split registration of shares of a Belgian limited partnership (known as “maatschap” or “société de droit commun”) that holds securities and investments. The above-mentioned evidence may also be presented to avoid the liability of inheritance tax.
The first statement, that the above stipulations apply to a split registration of securities and investments, is applied on gifts involving the reservation of usufruct and made as from 1 June 2016. The second statement, that the above stipulations also apply to a split registration of shares of Belgian limited partnerships that hold securities and investments, is to be taken into account for gifts involving the reservation of usufruct that are made as from 1 June 2017.
These rules are applicable if on the day they died the donor was a resident for tax purposes of the Flemish Region but not if they were a resident of the Brussels or the Walloon Region.
One noteworthy response to these enlarged standpoints was a statement in the press that all donations of movable property involving the reservation of usufruct will henceforth be subject to inheritance tax on the donor’s estate if no gift tax has been paid.
In our view these comments in the press are irreconcilable with the Flemish Tax Administration’s positions on split purchases, and thus have no legal basis. Both positions are also without legal basis !
If you have questions on how this new position could affect you and yours, please feel free to get in touch with one of our tax lawyers or your regular contact person at Loyens & Loeff. We’re always happy to hear from you.

BELGRADE (Serbia), April 15 (SeeNews) - Serbia's government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) for the construction of the Pozega-Boljare motorway section, part of pan-European Corridor XI, infrastructure minister Zorana Mihajlovic said.
"The memorandum we signed in Dubrovnik refers to the section which is the most demanding from a financial and civil engineering point of view on the whole Corridor XI through Serbia, the Pozega-Boljare section to the Montenegrin border," Mihajlovic said in a statement on Friday.
The MoU was signed by Mihajlovic and the vice chairman of CRBC, Lu Shan, during the 9th Summit of Central and Eastern European Countries and China in Croatia's Dubrovnik.
The total investment in the construction of the 107 km-long section is estimated at about 2 billion euro ($2.3 billion), Mihajlovic said in June.
The section is part of pan-European Corridor XI - a motorway linking Italy's Bari to Romania's Bucharest via Montenegro's Bar port and Serbia's Belgrade, of which 103 km are planned to be completed this year.

Growing up in an environment of poverty can cause delays in the development of children’s brains, leading to ongoing challenges in school, according to new research by psychology professor Seth Pollak and economist Barbara Wolfe at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Such research, Becker writes, is prompting legislators to explore what can be done to help these children succeed.
Naja Tunney’s home is filled with books. Sometimes she will pull them from a bookshelf to read during meals. At bedtime, Naja, 5, reads to her 2-year-old sister, Hannah. “We have books anywhere you sit in the living room,” said their mother, Cheryl Tunney, who curls up with her girls on an oversized green chair to read stories.

Sometimes all you need is a little kayak that allows you to enjoy the water. Most kayaks on the market that fit into the category of short recreational sit-on-tops are literally just little barges that are no fun to paddle. When I started working on the Tsomo design, I wanted to fit as much speed and comfort into the short length as possible, while still allowing it to carry a decent weight.
The Tsomo hull is based on the same concept as the Kasai hull, but I have tweaked it substantially to make it efficient at such a short length. The hull is very wide in the middle for stability and weight-carrying capacity, while the ends are narrow for speed and tracking. Don’t let this kayak’s width fool you, though. The Paddle Cutaways on the deck work like a charm to make paddling comfortable without bashing your paddle against the deck. In fact, I’ve made sure that this boat is easy-to-paddle for children and shorter people, which makes it a great option for families who want one boat that can be shared.
I added a huge Tankwell in the stern, as I can imagine people wanting to use this boat for picnicking. The large tankwell also works great for crates, for which I added square indents to hold crates in position. The tankwell is a winner with the canine members of the family too.
The deck comes complete with the Paddle Rest and Bottle Holder that features on all our rec sit-on-tops, as well as the sturdy and adjustable Footrests that are used in most of our boats. Two Handles on each side plus handles on each end makes it very easy to handle this boat off the water too.
If you are the type of person for whom paddling is more about having fun on the water right here, right now, rather than using your kayak as a means to get to a destination, then all you need is the Tsomo.

Euler shows that any discrete system obeys the Maupertuis principle; from this result, he derives the general equation for the balance of moments in a plane elastica, which includes the general catenary as a special case. He also proves that Daniel Bernoulli's principle for the elastica that is free of distributed loads is also a special case of this general equation.

The 26590 motor seems to have been used on HMV/Columbia pairings of machines from around c 1937. My HMV 97C has one so I would assume the Columbia vesion, the 204, would have been similarly fitted. Also the Columbia 211 and HMV 88. Both my motors are stamped 26589 for some reason I am still to discover. None of my reference books make mention of this.
NB. Should you ever strip one of these motors down work on the bearings one at a time as there are no location grooves etc on the bearings for the governor arm. If you remove both bearings life will be tricky when it comes to setting the speed later. Leaving one bearing in position while working on the other allows the correct governor arm position to be maintained. Remove the bearing that protrudes the most through the pillar. This will allow the governor to be removed. After cleaning replace the armature and bearing and if necessary remove the bearing from the other end for cleaning. Note however that some minor adjustment of the bearings will be required to create a little play in the shaft but make sure the bearing that is adjusted is the one at the opposite end to the bearing nearest the turntable spindle..

You are able to get financing and construct the brewery the size you desire. They don’t have any plans to expand beyond their present size. It will take some effort to discover the beer, but should you visit the perfect places you will discover it. Blind Enthusiasm is not only a brewpub. I’ve got a great deal of energy. We just love fantastic food and drinks.
The beer are offered in howlers and growlers at a nearby liquor shop in Didsbury. It is called Vertical. Their beers are frequently available in Alberta. They are much harder to find outside Edmonton. However, for now, to obtain their beer, you must search hard. Proceed to Regina if you would like to try their beer. A gastropub which makes its own beer.
A start-up in 2011, Village Brewery is composed of lots of ex-Big Rock folks attempting to contact their micro roots. It isn’t only a brewery. The small brewery that could.
It is a community event, it is a way to think away from the box and fantastic exposure for us,” he explained. 17,000 beer cans in one spot, now that’s well worth seeing. This is where to come to try out something new or to find your treasured rare microbrew, and have an incredible time in the approach. Should you not reminisce, you are going to learn. Or you could self-finance and start small. In any event you can’t fail. Simple to locate province-wide.
A three is an excellent restaurant and a two is reasonable to good. A great deal of people in here think about this their property. As opposed to spend thousands and thousands of dollars to construct a brewery, they’ve partnered with Cold Garden to put out their very first beer. Sometimes, sheds are used as property offices for teleworkers, and other people who want to work at home, but have a different office outside their house. The Beer Shed could find by on location and authenticity, but it isn’t a poor place to have a beer within this neck of the woods.
Lethbridge was without a neighborhood brewery for a lengthy time. It could surprise many that Winnipeg doesn’t have a brewpub. And, also enjoy the Boat Club, you must know where you’re likely to locate this place. They’ve been expanding their line-up because of encouraging demand. Everyone receives a personal tour. They opened in the summertime of 2016. We opted to sit outside to relish the lovely weather and to benefit from the pure lighting for photographic purposes.
Lake Chalet is where to select the view. There’s even memorabila in the vehicle park. Lamoreaux stated the shift is a chance to start fresh. Outcast provides an entirely new means to open a brewery. Ben said it’s the personal touches that draw the customers’ tastes and provide them a feeling of ownership. Yelp reviews aren’t the most complimentary thus far. But should you have sodium problems, you have to order something different.

Most of us will never achieve the financial success and notoriety that Donald Trump has, but every small business owner can learn some valuable lessons from Mr. Trump. Whether you like him or not, you have to admire his talent for self-promotion. He may specialize in building skyscrapers and amassing real estate, but his methods would probably work for any business. He has the knack for speaking candidly while still promoting his brand. And his brand, of course, is Trump, which is well known all over the world. Maybe not as familiar as Coca-Cola or McDonald’s, but it’s up there.
We don’t see much of his personal life behind closed doors, but when he’s in public, Trump is always “on.” No matter what subject he’s questioned about, he always gets that plug in about his TV show or one of his casinos or golf courses. I think it just comes naturally to him, and it has paid off handsomely along the way. Everyone who has a new idea wants to partner with him and capitalize on the Trump name.
I recently saw him on a talk show, and he promoted everything he’s currently into, including Trump University. But Trump didn’t make it sound like a series of commercials; he appeared to just be making conversation. But he managed to spread the word about new ventures that many of us hadn’t previously heard about.
Donald Trump didn’t become a huge success overnight. It took years of hard work and promotion to get him where he is today. That is what a small business person needs to realize: what you do today and tomorrow will pay off in the future. You can’t get to the Emerald City unless you start now at the beginning of the yellow brick road. Then keep walking. The rewards won’t come to you; you must go to them. A little progress every day will get you there. And once you build your own brand and market awareness, it will help you in good times and bad. Just ask Donald Trump.

There’s nothing like family. Especially the family that finds you, fully grown and ready to help you build your dreams.
Robin McBride and Andréa McBride John grew up on opposite sides of the Pacific Ocean, Robin in Marlborough, New Zealand and Andréa in Monterey, Calif. They each thought they were only children. But in 1999, they discovered they had something in common: a father.
Their father was dying from cancer in Alabama when he made a last request of his family. He asked them to find Robin, whom they had never met, and bring the girls together. After much digging through public records the sisters were united. They’ve been inseparable ever since.
Today, they own McBride Sisters Wine, the largest black-owned wine company. Both sisters were raised in wine country and had long been passionate about wine. McBride Sisters Wine produces and distributes super premium wine grown in California and New Zealand. The company opened for business in 2010 in Oakland, Calif.
The dynamic duo was revved up and ready to go. But there were considerable challenges, including startup capital and access to key gatekeepers in the wine industry.
Truth is, there’s a misperception that black folks aren’t wine drinkers. However, last year, Essence surveyed its database of 500,000 women on their wine consumption. The results? Essence readers alone consume 4.3 million cases of wine a year.
There are around 50 black-owned wineries globally. Events like the Blacks in Wine Symposium this past February bring together winemakers, brand owners, retailers, and restaurants to address problems in the wine industry and create a plan for overcoming them. The Association of African American Vintners is another resource for entrepreneurs.
That’s not to say they didn’t get frustrated, of course. They just found ways to work around that.
The sisters have immense gratitude for their investors, without whom, they say, they would have not been able to fund their growth.
Today, McBride Sisters Wine’s core collection includes New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand Sparkling Brut Rosé, Central Coast California Chardonnay, and a Central Coast California Red Blend. All the grapes are sustainably farmed.
As a private company, the McBrides don’t talk revenues or sales, but it was recently announced that they were one of the recipients of the New Voices Fund, a $100 million investment in businesses owned or managed by women of color.
“New Voices Fund is game-changing!” Robin says, though she’s mum on plans for how they will use the money. Upcoming developments for the company include a new wine tasting room, opening in early 2019.
It’s not easy getting into the wine business, period. If you’re a person of color, those challenges multiply.
“It’s hard to be taken seriously in an industry that doesn’t look like us at all,” Chrishon Lampley, the founder of Love Cork Screw wines, a negociant, says. “In such a male-dominant industry, I am always mistaken as the ambassador for the brand, and not the owner.” Founded in 2013, Love Cork Screw wines are now available in more than 50 locations including Target, Whole Foods, and many more.
Without question, the biggest hurdle for all new business owners is raising capital. The wine industry is notoriously expensive. Planting a vineyard in the United States reportedly ranges from $30,000 to $100,000 per acre. Sommelier certification through the Court of Master Sommeliers costs from $595 to $1,195 per course or exam.
There are myriad reasons why more African-Americans aren’t in the wine industry, Robin says. “Capital. Historical context. The last time African-Americans were involved in American agriculture in a major way, it involved 300 years of slavery,” she says.
Since African-Americans represent a small percentage of the wine industry, aspiring black winemakers don’t always have the same routes to funding as those whose families have been making wine in Napa, Sonoma, France, or Spain for generations.
It’s a lot of work. Lampley recommends all who are interested in working in wine to ready themselves for an uphill climb.

People have really mastered the art of making excuses for themselves. It’s more common than you think to trick your mind and body into premeditated defeat by letting excuses rule over your mind.
Maybe it’s the comfort of being in a routine (or lack thereof ) or the fear of change.
There can be excuses of all sorts, and when your excuses set the pace and take control of your life, you are setting yourself up to fail.
You alone have the power to decide and create what you want out of life. You make time for what you prioritize and make excuses for what you don’t.
What is important to you? Why are you pursuing a healthier lifestyle? Considering you are reading this blog post, health and fitness is a part of your life, or you have goals to work toward a healthier version of YOU. Everyone has their reasons of what motivates them. It could be to manage stress, to get toned or to feel better all around. Either way, you need to focus on what motivates you and make this a priority. Light the fire, and don’t let your excuses blow it out!
Would you ever think about just not showing up to a meeting at work? You are expected to be there and have made it a priority. When you change your thinking to make health just as important as a work meeting, you will find the time to fit it into your life. Make a commitment and make sure you have it penciled in. By taking a look at what you have planned for the week, both for work and your personal life, you can make sure you don’t skip a beat. Stay proactive. If you know you will be in meetings late followed by a work dinner, make sure you get your workout in before you head into work for the day.
If you are finding yourself rambling excuses all the time, maybe its time to reflect on your daily habits in order for YOU to begin to rule over your excuses, instead of the other way around. I hear this one all the time: “I worked all day and came home and was too exhausted to workout.” Well, it sounds like you need to make a lifestyle change. It really is THAT simple. Making small lifestyle changes can end up having a large impact on your life. Maybe it’s waking up one hour earlier in order to fit in a morning workout or turning off all electronics by 8:30 so you can start to unwind and try to be in bed earlier. Maybe instead of hitting the snooze button ten times you can get up on the first alarm. Don’t let your work, daily activites or exhaustion get in the way of a good workout. Look at the reasons of why you are failing now, and tweak your habits to make sure you set yourself up for success!
Don’t think about it— just do it! Make it a goal to work on these small changes for 21 days straight. Get up on that first snooze alarm. Wake up an hour earlier. Reflect on your daily habits and what you can do in order to see the changes and results you want. Commit to 21 days and see how it makes you feel, both physically and emotionally.

Hi - so im in SL math and was hoping to get a 7 in the course, however, due to unfortunate circumstances i got a 11/20 on my first IA.
We have another one but as a worst case senario - say i got another 11/20 or less again & aced the exam (with a 7) would i still get the 7?
Yes, do not worry too much about the IA's. IA's are worth 20% of your mark whereas the exam is worth 80%. So, you should be fine and do not be too discourgaed by the mark on your first IA. I am sure by learning from your mistakes you can do better on the next one and get that level 7 you want!
but IF i did get another 11 -> would it still be possible to get a 7?

Is there a request for enhancement of search & filter strings to accept regular expressions ?
Thomas Stephens (173●1●8●17) | asked Aug 17 '15, 10:04 a.m.
I cannot find the limits on field data size in JAZZ.
Specifically the Description and name attributes in RRC/RDNG.
Looking for the limits in JAZZ/RM 4.0.5, but also for 6.x for comparison.
Limits for other attributes/fields im CM and QM are needed too.
Arun K Sriramaiah (3.1k●18●36) | answered Aug 17 '15, 10:36 a.m.
Please have a check the below link.
I think the DNG Getting started, might help in understanding attribute usage.
Thomas Stephens commented Aug 17 '15, 11:55 a.m. | edited Aug 17 '15, 3:37 p.m.
We have ~140 projects in use.
I need the size limits for description text, String attribute type, etc.
Geoffrey Clemm commented Aug 17 '15, 3:41 p.m.
If you mean the size limit per work item, then see the references that Arun provides above (for example, the Description field of a work item is a large-HTML, and the max size of a large-HTML string is 32768 bytes. If you mean the total size across all work item records, that that is just limited by the storage capacity of the database system you are using to store RTC data.
Thomas Stephens commented Aug 17 '15, 4:25 p.m.
Ok, so RTC is not JAZZ.
Max size of string data in RDNG attributes?
Limits on text in RQM Test Script steps?
Thomas Stephens commented Nov 05 '15, 6:11 p.m.
OK, so still no definite answer.
If I paste 8 G of text into the Description attribute, how much of that gets stored?
If I paste 8G of text into a string attribute, how much gets stored?
If I set a list item text to "This is a long selection text to test handling long strings as attribute list item selection." How will the system handle the list item?
Geoffrey Clemm (29.0k●2●30●35) | answered Aug 17 '15, 5:06 p.m.
This is from 2013, so some things may have changed, but this should give you a general idea of how things are restricted.
If you have a specific question about a particular artifact field type, it would probably be best to post it as a separate question.

As you may read in the page about nonlinear science, the concern of nonlinear physics is often the unexpected appearance of chaos or order. Within this framework the soliton plays the role of order.
To explain the nature of solitons, we will consider the behaviour of water waves on shallow water. The scenario could be set e.g. in one of the canals, which was the 19'th century's analogue to nowaday's highways. Indeed, it was in such a location that a soliton was first noticed in 1849 by the Scottish engineer John Scott Russell. Imagine that a wave is somehow initiated in such a canal. One would expect that the wave then rolls along the canal while it spreads out and soon ends it's life as small wiggles on the surface. However, if certain conditions are fulfilled, the unexpected may happen; a soliton can be excited, and the wave will continue to roll along the canal without changing shape.
Bothered by non-monotonicity? Here’s ONE QUICK TRICK to make you happy.
"Here’s another approach: an additive model, of the form g(x) = g1(x) + g2(x), where g1 is strictly increasing and g2 is strictly decreasing. This sort of model gets us away from the restrictions of the quadratic family—it’s trivial for g1 and g2 to have different curvatures—but also it is a conceptual step forward in that it implies two different models, one for the process that causes the increase and one for the process that causes the decrease. This makes senses, in that typically the increasing and decreasing processes are completely different. This is an example of the Pinocchio principle."

The Babinski Reflex is a normal response in infants up to the age of 2, in which the big toe extends upwards and backwards, while the other toes fan outwardly; however, in adults a positive Babinski Sign is pathological and often indicative of severe damage to the central nervous system.
Extension of the big toe, in which the big toe extends upwards, while the other toes curl outwards. In infants up to the age of 2 this is a normal primitive response and is associated with the under-developed or immature central nervous system. With an Adult however, this is a pathological response, indicating severe damage to the Central Nervous System.
No Response: Indicates damage to the peripheral nervous system, muscles, or tendons within the region.
Flexion: the toes all curve inwards. This is the normal response produced in healthy adults with a fully developed and functional central nervous system.
In adults the Babinski Sign can indicate upper motor neuron diseases, such as lesions, which affect the corticospinal tract. The cause of this damage can be varied, however, a Positive Babinski Sign will often be the only indication of upper motor neuron disease, and will cause a Neurologist to consider other neurological investigations, such as Lumbar Punctures, MRIs and CT scans to determine cause and treatment. In infants, an extension response, or Positive Babinski response is common because the corticospinal pathway is not fully myelinated, which means that messages are not conducted through the neurological pathway as rapidly, and consequently, the primitive reflex is not inhibited by the cerebral cortex. The extensor response changes to a flexion response during the first 1-2 years of life, depending on natural development of the central nervous system.
What is the significance of a positive Babinski’s sign for paramedics assessing a patient?
An adult patient who is exhibiting a positive Babinski’s sign is likely to have severe damage to the central nervous system. However, as a paramedic, this is just one means of highlighting this fact, but should not change a paramedic’s treatment of the patient. However, it is important to document its presense so that it can be reviewed by a neurosurgeon in hospital. A neurogsurgeon may also take a positive Babinski’s sign into account, in conjunction with many other factors and tests, when determining possible end of life decisions in intensive care.

A manatee spotted this week in Calvert County, Maryland is the same one that first made waves 17 years ago when he appeared in Chesapeake Bay just before the onset of winter and later had to be rescued.
The most recent USGS Earth as Art exhibit, the third in the series of award-winning Landsat satellite images, will be on display at the Library of Congress beginning May 31.
USGS mapping, and in particular, the history, richness and diversity of topographic mapping, was recently recognized and honored at the 2010 International Map and Trade Association Conference at Washington D.C.
USGS will brief Congress, the media and the public on nutrient concentrations in the Nation's water resources, key sources of nutrients, potential effects on humans and aquatic life, and changes in concentrations since the early 1990’s.
Reducing the delivery of nutrients to the Chesapeake Bay is one of the most important components of restoration efforts to achieve a healthy Bay ecosystem. The USGS has developed a new method for tracking the progress toward reducing nitrogen and phosphorus delivery from the watershed to the Bay.
Decision makers need a toolbox full of ideas to understand the large-scale impacts of their choices—to secure water for cities and wildlife, to adapt to climate change, to meet the nation's energy needs and to better conserve biodiversity.
More than one-third of the nation’s population uses drinking water from public water systems that rely on groundwater pumped from public wells. The U.S. Geological Survey has collected data nationwide on water-quality in public wells.
The rain last week did little to alleviate the dry conditions affecting parts of Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. Hydrologic conditions in the Mid-Atlantic region remain abnormally dry, and streamflows continue to decline, according to scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) (see national map figure below).

The University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine has established a new Center for Cellular and Molecular Engineering in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and appointed as its founding director, Rocky S. Tuan, a world-renowned expert in stem cell biology and tissue engineering.
For more than 30 years, Tuan has studied the workings of the musculoskeletal system and its diseases, including cartilage development and repair, cell signaling and matrix biochemistry, stem cell biology, nanotechnology, and many other orthopaedically relevant topics.
The purpose of the new Center for Cellular and Molecular Engineering is to develop the knowledge base and the technical know-how toward the restoration of organ functions by applying principles of cellular and molecular biology as well as the physical sciences and engineering, Fu said. Novel approaches—such as stem cells, biomaterials, nanotechnology, and bioreactors—will be utilized to advance skeletal tissue engineering and regeneration.
Since 2001, Tuan has been chief of the Cartilage Biology and Orthopaedics Branch at the National Institute of Arthritis, and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He received his undergraduate education at Swarthmore College and Berea College and his doctorate from Rockefeller University, New York. Prior to his appointment at NIH, he held professorships in orthopaedic surgery at the University of Pennsylvania and at Thomas Jefferson University, where he also was vice chair and director of research in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery. He currently has adjunct appointments at George Washington University School of Medicine and Georgetown University School of Medicine.
Tuan’s wife, Cecilia Lo, has been appointed founding chair of a new department of Developmental Biology in Pitt’s School of Medicine [see accompanying article]. Both Lo and Tuan have served on many professional committees and boards, published significant research papers in top-tier scientific journals, and delivered invited talks at highly regarded academic centers.
They will begin their positions this summer. They have been married for 33 years and have one child.

Journalists, media groups and users of social media in Afghanistan have accused the government of censorship after it moved to block the WhatsApp and Telegram Messaging services.
The editor of one of the country's biggest newspapers said the move was a retrograde step and would be resisted.
The move may have been initiated to stop the Taliban and other insurgent groups from using encrypted messaging.
But as yet there is little evidence of the temporary ban being enforced.
Earlier this week, officials at the body which regulates telecommunications confirmed that they'd written to service providers to ask for a temporary, 20-day ban, citing security reasons.
Acting Telecommunications Minister Shahzad Aryobee also posted a message on Facebook saying that the regulator had been ordered to put a gradual block on messaging services to solve technical problems, after numerous complaints had been received.
"The government is committed to freedom of speech and knows that it is a basic civil right for our people," he wrote.

You’ve got just two days to create and carry out your dream travel itinerary in Florence. Here are 10 things that you simply must do and the places that you have to see in the city.
13 Of the Best Instagram photos in Rome & who to follow!
Florence is great for lots of things, from history, to food to sightseeing, but it’s also a nice place to go shopping. Its out-of-town fashion outlets are popular with tourists and locals, and The Mall, which can be accessed via Europa 8, Leccio Reggello, is one of the best.
The Uffizi gallery is perhaps the most famous gallery in Florence, and it’s absolutely bursting with Renaissance art. There are audio tours available in six languages. Since the collection is so big, you’ll need to set aside three hours or more to really appreciate everything in the building.
Locally known as the ‘Duomo’, this massive gothic cathedral dominates the Piazza del Duomo in the heart of Florence. Once you get there, climb to the top of the dome for spectacular views of the city, or join a guided tour to appreciate the intricate designs that cover the interior of the building.
If you love ice cream, then Florence city breaks will be heaven, because it has awesome gelato. Head straight to Grom (via del Campanile), which is often credited as being Florence’s best gelateria and order one of the monthly specials, which change according to the season and are as delicious as the city itself.
Also found on the Piazza del Duomo is Giotto’s bell tower, which stands at 84.7 metres tall and is considered to be the most beautiful campanile in Italy. Visitors must climb the 414 steps to the top of the tower, but the views are worth the work.
If you want to see the tombs of famous dead people, go to Santa Croce church. This is the final resting place of a number of famous Italians, including Galileo, Rossini and Michelangelo.
There are lots of places to admire the view in Florence, but for the first time visitor, the Pizzale Michelangelo offers stunning views and a replica of Michelangelo’s David. .
This is the oldest building in the city, with historians dating parts of it back to the 5thcentury. Tourists flock here to see the Gates of Paradise and other religious symbols by designer Lorenzo Ghiberti.
Florence is also famous for its leather markets, head to the one next to San Lorenzo Church, which is home to lots of leather stalls and leads to the indoor market, Mercato Centrale.
Cross the Ponte Vecchio and get lost in the maze of shops of sculptors, carvers, goldsmiths and everything in between.

You probably know by now how much I love brands like Shein (previously Sheinside), ROMWE and Choies so when Spred Fashion got in touch offering a variety of those brands on their website I jumped at the opportunity to collaborate. I love being able to find affordable dupes online, and although shipping takes a little longer than I would like, I've never received a piece I didn't like. Whilst they don't offer as much variety as the latter do, Spred Fashion have picked a few of the best bits. I chose this gorgeous white, coffee, black dress (obsessed with the description haha) and tried to keep it simple with my F&F mules and Marc b. bag. I also used a belt - this one is from Forever 21 - to cinch in my waist and create a bit more of a shape; adding a belt is a great way to accentuate your waist, particularly if you're wearing something oversized.
Handbag (c/o) - Marc b.
What are your favourite worldwide online brands?
As always my favourite mules have featured! I really do need to go get myself some, every time I see a pair I always mention it to Mr C that I love them. Gorgeous!
Love this look! The dress is so cute and I love the bag as well!

Longer focal lengths are often thought to produce images with shallower depth of field than wider ones, although this isn’t quite the case.
It seems to be so, as you’d naturally opt for a long telephoto lens when isolating a subject from its background rather than a wideangle optic, but to make the comparison fair you would need to move so the main subject occupies the same proportion of the frame in each image you capture.
If you did this, you would see that depth of field hardly changes between the two. Yet, images appear to have more pronounced blur in shots captured with telephoto lenses. So what’s happening here?
With a narrower angle of view, less of the background is being captured with the telephoto lens than it is with the wideangle lens. As a result, what is being captured is essentially being stretched to a greater extent in order to fill the frame, which appears as stronger blur.
Of course, whether this technically creates more shallow depth of field or not isn't really the issue; it appears to be the case and that's good enough.
If you're using a compact camera, zoom in as far as possible and capture your subject from the minimum subject distance at which your camera will allow you to focus. To check where this is move very close to the subject and try to take the image, before gradually stepping back and repeating the process until the camera confirms focus.
Strictly speaking, this method doesn't create shallower depth of field although it works by using additional points of reference to highlight how shallow the depth of field actually is.
Let’s suppose you’re capturing a series of railings, with your camera's sensor parallel to the railings, and you're focusing right in the centre of the frame. As the entire railings are more or less all at the same distance away from you, they will all be recorded with roughly the same focus.
Now consider what would happen if you carried on focusing exactly where you were before but you moved to one side or another so that you were at a 45degree angle to the railings. Some would be further away and some would now be closer to you – and with a sufficiently wide aperture you would be able to blur both to leave the middle of the frame focused. Move to a more acute angle and this would increase even further.
By filling the frame with subjects that you know will be out of focus, more attention is placed on the shallowness of the area that is in focus. Obviously this won’t be appropriate for every scene, but it’s useful to know if you only want a very small part of the scene to be in focus.

Le matérieu vocale est superbe, riche et séduisant, d'une impeccable projection.
Mit seiner voluminösen Stimme erobert es die Bühne im Nu. Dazu ist er stimmlich äusserst flink und feurig, sein "Largo al factotum" zieht er wie ein Spinnennetz durch die Halle der Villa.
Le baryton Leon Kosavic est très à l'aise dans le rôle de Figaro, comme chanteur et acteur.
Après son formidable Figaro mozartien à Liège au printemps dernier, Leon Kosavic effectue ses debuts en France avec brio et se montre l'un des meilleurs acteurs chantants qui soit. Son timbre superbe au grain serré et rare fait le reste.
Véritable révélation dans Les Noces de Figaro (rôle-titre) en avril dernier à Liège, le baryton croate Leon Kosavic renouvelle notre enthousiasme dans le rôle de Figaro, et séduit par son engagement physique, son incarnation vive et délurée de bad boy balafré, et, bien sûr, par la qualité de son chant.

A place to share learning material: written tutorials, videos, etc.
Hi, this tutorial shows how to draw the steel structure of a building.
Though the "flamingo" workbench will have soon a quite drastic re-arrangement, this workflow seems very quick and flexible and I'll keep that also in future development.
If you have any improvement or integration with other features of FreeCAD, which I may not be aware of, please write suggestions in the thread of the workbench.
The tutorial's highest resolution is at 480. Is it possible for you to create a higher resolution and upload it ?
actually I use Kazam to make screencasts and OpenShot to assemble them with some slides.
With that I get a quite acceptable quality but also a quite fat file of 130 MB or more for 9 minutes tutorial. Too much for my internet connection and my patience during uploading. So I convert with VLC the file to a lower bitrate (typically 300 kbps= video-conferencing) and a lower fps (10 fps).
At the end I get the result that you see: still readable but with some flare.
Do you have any advice to get better results keeping the file around 40 MB?
Great control in with minimal steps while maintaining parametricsms.
Great stuffs. I love it.
Hmm try OBS Studio. You can record offline since you don't have good internet connection, and also you can have fairly decent video quality for less megabites, unlike the OpenShot, Kazam and the others that blow up file size and taxes your Ram and Graphics card.
Great tutorial to learn Flamingo !
Used keyboard shortcut "C" after selecting points. That's because it's time consuming to aim exactly at the point every time.
Not aware of availability of shortcuts right in sketcher itself! Now read thw wIki amd found they are very productive indeed!

Pramipexole belongs to the class of medications called dopamine agonists. It is used to treat signs and symptoms of Parkinson's disease. It is also used to treat symptoms of moderate to severe restless leg syndrome. It helps to improve muscle control and movement by affecting the balance of a chemical in the brain called dopamine.
Each white-to-off-white, round, flat-faced, bevelled-edged tablet, debossed with "P1" over, and "P1" under the horizontal scoreline on the scored side, and "TV" on the other side, contains 0.25 mg of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate. Nonmedicinal ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, sodium starch glycolate, and sodium stearyl fumarate.
Each white-to-off-white, oval, biconvex tablet, debossed with "P" vertical scoreline "P" on the scored side, and "TV" on the other side, contains 0.5 mg of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate. Nonmedicinal ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, sodium starch glycolate, and sodium stearyl fumarate.
Each white-to-off-white, round, flat-faced, bevelled-edged tablet, debossed with "P3" over and under the horizontal scoreline on the scored side, and "TV" on the other side, contains 1 mg of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate. Nonmedicinal ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, sodium starch glycolate, and sodium stearyl fumarate.
Each white-to-off-white, round, flat faced, bevelled-edged tablet, debossed with "P4" over and under the horizontal scoreline on the scored side, and "TV" on the other side, contains 1.5 mg of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate. Nonmedicinal ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, sodium starch glycolate, and sodium stearyl fumarate.
For Parkinson's disease, the recommended adult dose starts at 0.375 mg daily, taken in 3 divided doses. Depending on the response to the medication as well as side effects, the dose may be increased every 5 to 7 days to obtain the desired effects. The maximum recommended dose should not exceed 4.5 mg daily, taken in 3 divided doses.
For restless leg syndrome, the recommended adult dose starts at 0.125 mg once daily, taken 2 to 3 hours before bedtime. The dose may be increased every 4 to 7 days to a maximum of 0.5 mg 2 to 3 hours before bedtime. Pramipexole may be taken with or without food. You should take it with food if you find that you feel sick to your stomach after taking the tablets.
Pramipexole should not be taken by anyone who is allergic to pramipexole or to any of the ingredients of the medication.
Behaviour changes: People taking pramipexole have experienced abnormal behaviour such as compulsive gambling, compulsive shopping, hypersexuality, and binge eating. If you experience these symptoms or any other behaviour change while taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately.
Blood pressure: Pramipexole can lower blood pressure for some people. People taking this medication may feel dizzy or lightheaded when rising from a sitting or lying position. Make sure to tell your doctor if you experience this effect. If you have severe heart disease, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Drowsiness/sudden onset of sleep: Pramipexole and similar mediations can cause drowsiness and sudden onset of sleep or sleep attacks. Sudden onset of sleep can occur without warning or drowsiness. People taking this medication should avoid driving or operating heavy machinery. If you experience any daytime drowsiness or sudden onset of sleep while taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately.
Hallucinations: People taking this medication should be aware that hallucinations (mainly seeing things that are not really there) can occur and may affect their ability to drive and perform other daily activities. Make sure to tell your doctor if you experience this effect.
Kidney function: Decreased kidney function or kidney disease can cause this medication to build up in the body, causing side effects. People with reduced kidney function should discuss with their doctor how this medication may affect their medical condition, how their medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. Pramipexole is not recommended for people with end-stage renal disease.
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS): As with other medications that have an effect on movement disorders, pramipexole can trigger a potentially fatal set of symptoms known as neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS). If you experience symptoms of NMS, such as high fever; muscle stiffness; confusion or loss of consciousness; sweating; or rapid or irregular heartbeat, seek immediate medical attention.
This is more likely to occur if pramipexole is stopped suddenly or the dose is decreased rapidly. If you are considering stopping this medication, talk with your doctor about the appropriate way to reduce pramipexole.
Restless leg syndrome: When this medication is used to treat the symptoms of restless leg syndrome, it may cause a worsening of symptoms in the early morning hours. It may also cause earlier onset of symptoms in the evening or an increase in symptoms. If you experience this, let your doctor know.
Stopping treatment: Do not stop taking this medication without consulting with your doctor. Stopping this mediation suddenly can cause symptoms such as fever, rigid muscles, and blood pressure changes. If you and your doctor decide that stopping this medication is best for you, your doctor will gradually reduce your dose over a week.
Suicidal or agitated behaviour: People with Parkinson's disease are at risk of experiencing thoughts and intent of self-harm or suicide. These feelings may not pass when the symptoms of PD are relieved. If you have depression or bipolar disorder, you may be at an increased risk of feeling agitated (restless, anxious, aggressive, emotional, and feeling not like themselves), or wanting to hurt themselves or others. If you experience these side effects or notice them in a family member who is taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately.
Breast-feeding: It is not known if pramipexole passes into breast milk. Since the medication reduces the amount of breast milk produced, women who are breast-feeding should not take this medication.
Children: The safety and effectiveness of using pramipexole has not been established for children.
Seniors: Seniors may be more likely to experience hallucinations (hearing, seeing or feeling things that are not there) while taking pramipexole.

Alternatively, if you have merged to MyBB from another forum software, redownload the MyBB Merge System, extract the loginconvert.php file, and upload it over the current version in your ./inc/plugins/ folder.
I created manually in the table mybb_users column REMEMBER by PHPADMIN and resolved.
Or you could just fix the actual problem and update the files like you're supposed to. Adding the column to get rid of the error is an extremely bad thing to do, as it means you have 1.4 code running on your forum, I do not recommend anybody manually adds the column, please never suggest this to anybody.

Scientists and researchers have been reaching out to Jamaica Bay-area residents, urging them to complete an online survey that is part of a joint flood-protection project between Princeton University and the Science and Resilience Institute @ Jamaica Bay.
The study’s purpose, according to the SRI@JB, Its purpose is to better understand how residents are affected by flooding and how they value different flood protection options. Its goal is to also understand how public programs can best support the needs and values of the Jamaica Bay community.
The survey takes about 10 to 15 minutes to complete, according to researchers. Responses are anonymous and confidential. For your participation, you will be entered into a raffle for a $500 Amazon gift card. Also, you may nominate a local organization to receive $1,000.
The survey can be found at https://princetonsurvey.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2uuPHmDLQ4oJKQd.
According to the institute, as a vision of the future, a more resilient Jamaica Bay would be able to withstand shocks and stresses to the social, physical, and ecological systems that support the well-being of living populations. To put resilience into practice and meet this vision we need to better understand how systems respond to disturbance but also make decisions about what constitutes well-being and what system interventions might get us there. This is not a straightforward effort. Resilience in practice is interpreted in various ways by different thinkers. Ecologists, for example, extend resiliency practice to the restoration of coastal wetland habitats that can help strengthen the capacity of the ecosystem to absorb stresses or shocks. Resilient local ecosystems can support well-being by protecting the biodiversity of a region and helping meet a range of human needs such as protecting environmental quality, reducing natural disaster risk, adapting to climate change, and enjoying recreation and natural amenities. Distinct from ecologists, engineers often emphasize a different aspect of resilience. They may envision resiliency practice as a structurally defensive notion—for example, building seawalls or abatements to defend against storm surge pushing into the bay. Furthering the complexity, communities of residents may have a still different concept of resiliency practice that focuses priority on strengthening the capacity of the human community to cope with stressors and shocks.

Strict Liability and Human Rights Due Diligence - too little too early?
It was a pleasure to speak in Geneva earlier this month at a consultation hosted by the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (“OHCHR“) on the scope for making businesses strictly liable for human rights abuses, and the role, if any, for human rights due diligence in that context.
The consultations were requested by the UN Human Rights Council following the publication of the important first report of the OHCHR’s Accountability and Remedy Project (“ARP“).
The ARP was launched by the OHCHR in 2014 to enhance the third pillar of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (the “UNGPs“), access to remedy. Its first report – ARP I – was presented to the Human Rights Council in June 2016. Like the UNGPs, ARP I concluded that effective judicial mechanisms are at the heart of access to remedy. The project’s second phase – ARP II – is currently in progress and focuses on non-judicial mechanisms.

TL;DR – Wolf Warriors 2 brings Chinese propaganda films into the 21st century, however, it fails in presenting a solid story and in the production of many of its effects.
Well wasn’t this an interesting film, Wolf Warriors 2 is a film creating buzz across the world, and has broken box office records in its home China, so today we’re going to have a look to see if Wolf Warriors II holds up. Now before we start, I do have to make it clear that I have not seen the first film in the series, so I may have missed some of the nuances, however, the film does a good job of giving you all of the basic reminders of what happened, elite soldiers, one sacrificed themselves for the team, and there was a love interest. Which brings us to the start of the film, so let’s dive into the world of Wolf Warriors II. Now to do this we will be breaking down the production elements of the film, and then we will be looking at the story, and finally examining themes at play.

Re: [ORAS] Anyone ever noticed this?
Acrobatics, maybe? I dunno at this point, ambipom doesn't have a lot of good moves.
If your opponent is unhittable for any reason, hone your claws.
Since I asked and have been told that taunt is not a status move, I will go ahead with my commands. If you are somehow taunted, use shadow ball instead.
Does taunt count as a status move?
Let's use some shadow balls. If you are unable to hit your target, just use calm mind.
I'd say the end of the round. I dont think it matters that much though.
Nah, I like this way of reffing.
To be honest, Goatye, it's best if you b for now. I will send out Foxy.
Ah, I forgot to take 1 off, due to the defence I think. I'll go fix it.
Status: Very focused in her dream.
Miniumum and maximum durations? I go by 3-5 actions normally, as that's how it works in the games. Maybe that's a little small in hindsight?

I have always wanted to travel to New Zealand for as long as I can remember, and so when I decided to move out of my home of 10 years and start pursuing film making around the world, I knew the time had come. It was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made to leave my beloved home, but I was more ready than ever to embrace the unknown and explore the world. I spent 3 months in New Zealand traveling in a Camper Van having one of the most incredible times of my life. I enjoyed countless nights under the stars, towering mountains, magical rainforest, stunning ocean, and meeting people from all over the world. It changed my life forever, and I know I’ll never be the same.
Magical New Zealand is comprised of 8640 individual images from over 150,000 that were taken as I traveled around New Zealand for 3 months last spring. The inspirational music of Shaun Diaz is the perfect complement to this magical landscape. If you enjoy, please share!
