A friend of mine just sent this to me and thought I'd like it... and I LOVE it! I didn't know anything about her. Love her voice! And the fact that she's singing her (and my) hometown - SF!! Maybe some of you already know about her, but if you don't, this is a treat.

And while I'm at it, might as well put on my hero and one of my favorite videos (if you haven't seen this before, make sure ...Read more
The US Democratic-controlled Congress did the unthinkable on Saturday night: They gave President Bush and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who is currently mired in scandal and probably committed perjury on this very issue, more unchecked power to wiretap Americans without a warrant. There is no trade-off between fundamental liberties and security. Preserving our Constitution is essential to our security—we can't lead on freedom around the world when we're actively undermining the rule of law at home.If this concerns you a ...Read more
I read this article in Le Monde that a downloadable video game called "Incorruptible Warriors" (清廉戰士), produced by a government agency, has become a hit in China. I couldn't find any English articles that is as good as Le Monde, but the one on Switched.com came the closest.
Sounds like a fun g...Read more
I went to see a Bergman film yesterday, The Seventh Seal, to remember this master and to celebrate the fact that I've finished my second rewrite (actually more like to take my mind off of my scrīpt...) I got to the cinema early and picked up one of their monthly issues to read about the coming-soon films and related articles. Then I saw this heading, "It's A Man's Man's Man's World"... sounded interesting, so i read on... and the first few paragraphs just grabbed my heart:
"In June, the ...Read more
Two great filmmakers bid us farewell within two days (and really three within a month)... it's just too much for me, really.
Italian film director Michelangelo Antonioni died today at the age of 94. Another huge loss for cinephiles around the world. "Blow Up" (1966, starring Vanessa Redgrave) was one of his international hits... man, that was a great film...
Like Derek said, I shouldn't feel too sad as both directors did live their lives to the fullest, and have created many great films throug...Read more
Yet another film-maker legend has left us...
Ingmar Bergman, the Swedish film director/master, has died today at the age of 89. An important figure in modern cinema, this master made over 50 films in his career, and many of his classics and masterpieces are well loved and admired by film students and film buffs: "Persona", "Cries and Whisper", "Seventh Seal", "Wild Strawberries"... the list just goes on...
I still remembered watching "Persona" for the firs...Read more
The US Congress is voting this week on H.R. 969, a bill that will dramatically boost solar and wind energy. If it passes, it'll be like taking 37 million cars off the road, it'll be the biggest step in two decades toward a clean planet and affordable energy. Big oil and coal are fighting the bill hard, because it would undercut their stranglehold on the economy. If you care about this issue, please join and sign the petition:

While most parts of England were being washed away... I had a busy week... Been twirling my hair to knots working on the rewrite of my screenplay (think I'll come out of this rewrite with dreadlocks...) i can't complain too much about the speed/slow process though, since I'm slow and not-so-bright, so I expect things to take longer for me to absorb and understand...
For a short while, I was stuck somewhere in my rewrite (dunno Act I, II or III, as I don't go by these structures...) But it ...Read more
Got this email from my friend, it's quite disturbing... so if you're filmmakers/photographers from the big apple, you should look into this. Read the original NY Times article, the link is at the bottom.

Friends,
Introduced quietly just before Memorial Day weekend, the regulations could severely impede the ability of even casual photographers and filmmakers to operate in New York City: A group of two or ...Read more
