Massachusetts General Hospital provides the best patient care and patient experience because of people like Elaine Kwiecien. She's not a physician, a researcher or a hospital leader. But by devoting her time, knowledge and philanthropy to the hospital, Ms. Kwiecien has made an impact today that will endure into the future.
Built over a long career with the federal government, Ms. Kwiecien's management skills come in handy at Mass General.
Since first encountering the warm and helpful community in the hospital's halls, Ms. Kwiecien has sought out ways to contribute. These days, she's busy teaching staff members English language skills or helping visitors access resources at The Maxwell and Eleanor Blum Patient & Family Learning Center.
In 2014, Ms. Kwiecien became a patient representative for the Internal Medicine Associates Innovation Team – part of an academic collaborative initiative with Harvard Medical School to examine patient-centered care. As a member of the Ladies Visiting Committee (LVC), she also offers input on funding requests for patient care programs not covered elsewhere in the hospital budget. Serving on the LVC finance and Gift Shops committees, she helps reconcile and verify office reports and even assists with bookkeeping tasks.
Beyond Time and Experience
Built over a long career with the federal government, Ms. Kwiecien's management skills come in handy at Mass General. "My volunteer positions allow me to offer input that's valued and welcome, and in turn, I learn and grow," she says. "There are few better ways for me to spend some of my retirement time."
But Ms. Kwiecien gives more than her time and expertise. She is a perennial member of the 1811 Society, which recognizes MGH Fund donors who help advance the hospital's mission by making an annual leadership gift. In 2003, she also joined the Phillips Society, which recognizes hospital donors of legacy gifts. She did so by choosing to establish a charitable remainder trust as her estate commitment to the hospital.
A charitable remainder trust is an individually managed vehicle that allows the donor to make a substantial gift while receiving an income. Charitable remainder trusts can be funded with a combination of cash, securities and, in some cases, real estate.
Contributions Supporting Dreams
Ms. Kwiecien opted to use her Cape Cod vacation home as her funding asset and she's never looked back. "It helps Mass General and provides a steady source of income to me," she says. "It's a win-win." Along with quarterly payments, the trust administrators provide regular statements and an annual accounting summary for taxes, she adds.
"Sometimes we think our small contribution will not make a difference, but every contribution supports someone's dream of achieving groundbreaking research, a better outcome or a cure."
Her own experience caring for a family member with Parkinson's disease inspired Ms. Kwiecien to make the Department of Neurology one beneficiary of her lifetime gifts and future commitments. Engaging with the department, meanwhile, has deepened her understanding of the medical field's landscape and shown her what charitable contributions enable. "Every family is touched by some neurological condition," Ms. Kwiecien explains. "It is important to participate in and support those trying to solve the puzzle."
"Sometimes we think our small contribution will not make a difference, but every contribution supports someone's dream of achieving groundbreaking research, a better outcome or a cure," she adds.
An advocate for Mass General's patients and staff, Ms. Kwiecien is proud of her hospital. "MGH," she says, "has employed among the very best and has shown it stays focused on the prize – better patient care and a better patient experience."

Six psychological fashion weapons you need in your business wardrobe
A good business wardrobe consists of solid suits and pencil skirts, sure. But sometimes a woman needs more: some looks that help her to impress. Or to deflect. Never underestimate the power of your fashion choices!
What does a good business wardrobe consist of? For sure experts have explained this to you a thousand times: a few very high-quality shift dresses, suits and blazers in navy, black and beige. Sure, these are no-brainers - but the reality is different. In fact, no work day resembles the next: new allies, new enemies, new challenges! Can some very exquisite but boring business looks be the answer to it all? Of course not.
Remember Hillary Clinton the moment she stepped in front of the cameras to admit her defeat to Donald Trump? She wore a grey and vibrant purple Ralph Lauren suit. Most of us interpreted her choice as a feminist symbol. But in her memoir "What Happened", she explained her decision as a nod to bipartisanship: blue plus red equals purple (she also revealed that had she won, she would have declared victory in a white suit, as a nod to suffragettes). What she wanted to say with her look was actually not what was heard - but that is beyond the point. Perfectly fitting clothes are armour for a woman because they make her feel comfortable and confident. The more exquisite they are cut, the easier it is to forget them. This creates space in a woman´s mind for more important thoughts, right? But clothes can be even more powerful. Wittily chosen symbols deliver a message. Sometimes they confuse your opponents, sometimes they gather your followers behind you, but most importantly do they help yourself to be the woman you want to be, in that particular day. So, even if most of us probably do not participate in the battles on the international stages of power politics, none of us should underestimate the psychological power of clothes - just keep these chic weapons in your fashion quiver. And don´t worry, they are definitely non-violent.
1. The Happy-Go-Lucky
Every working woman needs a floaty, nonchalant silk dress with a bold print - flowers, stripes, everything that lifts your spirits is allowed. Worn in the right situation, this becomes a witty weapon of deception: nothing is more confusing for old white men than a smart woman in a very feminine dress! Always to be worn when people who are not taking you seriously are involved. Let´s play!
2. The Badass
Remember Clare Underwood in House of Cards the moment she becomes President? To underline that she is taking over power, she wears a sharply tailored dress, buttoned-up to her chin, rigid military style. Sometimes a woman needs to play the general - on her first day as CEO, in crisis meetings - in short, for taking the lead. In these situations, everything with military-inspired details like bold buttons or shoulder lapels works. A more classic men´s style power suit with well-defined shoulders will do the trick as well. Tip: the higher the heels, the more empowering the look.
3. The Bomb
No businesswoman on earth wants the image of the woman who climbed up the ladder because of her looks. And of course, showing a little bit less skin and curves is much sexier anyway. So the Bomb, aka your most body-con dress, Alaia style, should never be used with male colleagues. It should be reserved for dates - and fierce battles with female opponents. If somebody is working hard on getting your job or sabotaging your project, you need to unsettle her. By simply looking fabulous, every day! It is all about occupying her brain capacities to distract her. But don´t lean back in your (midi-length) bombshell outfit and watch her struggle with her own fashion choices for too long - better to use the time with developing a better strategy.
4. The Disco Queen
Bad publicity is better than no publicity. And sometimes you need a little career push. So why not give them a reason for gossiping while you think about your next successful move? Nothing turns heads more than some really crazy shoes. They can be glittery, they can be scandalously high over-the-knee boots - the most important thing is that they are conversation pieces. Means: not only are they a statement, they are worthy of being talked about. This usually also works when you have to wake up a dull overworked crowd in a meeting room, by the way.
5. The Working Girl
Sometimes you get in touch with people in the field; therefore you need a crisp, perfectly tailored shirt made to wear solo. No matter if you go to see the stylists in a photo studio or workers on a construction site, there is nothing worse than appealing detached from reality. If you do not want to end up in an image disaster like Melania Trump with her high heels worn in a catastrophe zone, you better go low-profile. Note: it is better to tune it down too much rather than putting too much effort into it. Good role models are: Lady Diana visiting a mine-field (button down-shirt, chino pants, Tods), and Michelle Obama in her vegetable garden (angler´s vest, tight jeans, Converse). Wear your most excellent ballet flats if you can´t stand sneakers. But don´t even think about a heel. Rolled-up sleeves are a must too, even if only as a symbol: you should at least look like you are ready to get hands-on.
6. The Penitent
You lashed out at a colleague in a meeting or messed up a project, in short: you screwed up. Nevermind, nobody is perfect. We suppose you admitted your fault at the same moment and moved on. But maybe the others have not. So just to be sure, keep your head down the next day, fashion-wise, and emphasise your contrition with what you wear. So black it is - accentuated with a crisp, white collar - doesn´t matter if it a round Peter Pan version or something more classic. It shows your integrity but also lends you the innocent flair of a maid - a perfect attitude combination for winning in court, too!

Here is a promo video for Sadoschocccck. It was first available only for the court since it is relevant for my case.
This is a promo video for February 2017 and it has a 8bit and popart filter. Sadoschocck is set in the 1970´s and has a Bollywood filter. It has the morals and ethics of Bollywood movies of that era.
Jess Franco directed 200 movies. My mission is to direct at least 200 trailers and promos. Sadoschoccck is complete and The Oasis of Dr Orlovsky needs more footage.
Hon kan annars ge 9 miljoner till mig. Ok?
This is and idea for a sequel to the movie double impact.
Ok. Just add images of Van Damme 2017 as it is made now. On the above image we see the TWO male brothers and the third SISTER.
YES. Van Damme LOOKS LIKE A GIRL in "Hard target". So there were not TWO brothers. There were TWO brothers and ONE sister! WOW
So how can that be? You only see boys in the movies.
The family had TRIPLETS. The Yakuza (since Japan or Hong Kong, whatever) KIDNAPS the girl from the hospital. The parents agree NOT to tell ANYONE about this since well the Yakuza and all.
The parents agree to tell the two guys when they are like 15 or 10 or whatever. But the parents (SPOILER WARNING) die in the first movie when the boys are babies so they just dont know.
BUT like 20 years after the events in double impact "TRIPLE IMPACT" takes place. The two males are taking it easy, having good life but a bit boring. The Yakuza then decides to try and take other the dojo in the US or whatever. And since the sister grew up in Yakuza she is EVIL. And the MEN are good. Get it? HUH?
So then general slapstick happen and this is a comedy. And Van Damme plays a girl. Since that is funny.
All is fun and games with puns like the Van Damme sister saying "Well they just got a double impact" when the final showdown happens and she beats bot male van damme in the faces at once with to fists. Since fun.
She can also in the beginning just kill a hole group of male CIS guys and say: "They CIS:ed to exist"
And like say: "Take this pussy" while she beats the crap out of random douchebag.
The Van Damme guys can say: "Well of course we can take out one little girl since we are so heterosexual" while dressing up as women (to infiltrate the yakuza).
The movie ends with a TWIST.
The female KILLS both the brothers!
After the credits it says….
Get ready for…
"Single Van Damme"
"Single Impact"
A gritty sequel when the female Van Damme wipes out the entire yakuza and runs it by herself with a team of all female sidekicks

[Editor's note: When Pence did his voter threatening antics, he thought the election was hopeless.
He was stupid, careless and had no idea that he would be all that stood between Trump and impeachment with a huge target on his forehead.
Where Dick Cheney was a strong leader, though reviled throughout Washington, Pence is a small time player, inexperienced, out of his depth, a laughing stock. G]
By Thomas J. Mattingly
Like the process in which Vice President Spiro T. Agnew was investigated for and charged with multiple crimes, pled guilty and resigned as Vice President, Trump's Vice President Mike Pence is facing a similar fate.
Trump's former National Security Adviser Mike Flynn now seeks immunity from prosecution in exchange for his testimony against President Donald J. Trump and Trump's associates.
"Mike Pence is seeking an immunity arrangement like what Mike Flynn is seeking. Nixon-Agnew/Watergate déjà vu all over again?
The FBI nailed Chicago mobster Al Capone for unpaid taxes rather than any of the countless murders for which he was responsible. Republican efforts to remove Trump are first targeting the low hanging fruit: Flynn & Pence. Democrats will surely join.
Few if any now in the mainstream media can do the type of investigative reporting required to report on the Watergate-level crimes of the Trump White House. A long time ago, the 6 corporations that control 95% of mainstream media jettisoned their investigative reporters. Regardless, with global intelligence gathering capabilities, VT is ready, willing and able to do this work.
Trump's long association with Russian, Israeli and U.S. criminal oligarchs enabled the Trump-Pence election in 2016 (along with their connections inside U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies). Today's MSM will not touch these issues, because the Kosher Nostra is more powerful and influential than the Italian Cosa Nostra (mafia) ever was.
Nixon VP Agnew pled guilty to a single crime in 1973. Nixon nominated a consensus candidate to be his new vice president, Congressman Gerald Ford. Although Republicans control both houses of Congress, if Pence resigns before Trump, then Republicans and Democrats would first need to agree on a new vice president.
As per U.S. Constitution, Section 2 of 25th Amendment: "Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress."
Facing virtually certain impeachment and removal by Congress, Richard M. Nixon resigned as President in 1974. President Donald J. Trump may be facing a similar fate.
"Richard Nixon's former White House Counsel John Dean says that the Trump White House is now in "Cover-Up Mode" – like Nixon/Agnew and Watergate in 1973.
Some of the crimes for which Trump Vice President Mike Pence is still being investigated are violations of the Voting Rights Act and the Civil Rights Act. As Indiana Governor, Mike Pence brazenly used the Indiana State Police and others to suppress and disenfranchise more than 45,000 African-American voters.
As per investigative reporter Greg Palast and others, Republicans suppressed and disenfranchised minority voters across America. If spread across the states that provided Trump and Pence with their victory in the Electoral College (despite losing the popular vote), Mike Pence's single-handed suppression and disenfranchisement of 45,000 minority voters would be almost enough to shift the results of the 2016 elections.
West Side Gazette
Indiana State Police used force to harass African American voter registration
What did Mike Pence know and when?
Indiana State Police used force to harass African American voter registration
Pence allies seek to Rig 2016 Elections in Hoosier State
INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – Today is the last day to register to vote in Indiana. It is also seven days since Indiana Governor Mike Pence's State Police raided the largest voter-registration program in the state. The registrations targeted for suppression by Pence's state police are over-whelmingly African Americans.
In its raid, the Indiana State Police shut down a voter-registration program that was helping to register 10-of-thousands of law-abiding African Americans in Indiana. Registration of African Americans is opposed by many Indiana Republican leaders because they believe that these Hoosiers will not support GOP candidates. The State Police, in addition to crippling this program in the final week of Indiana's registration period, violated numerous legal standards and Constitutional protections, including (but not limited to) the rights of registration workers to legal representation when they were detained by police.
All five of the individuals leading this voter-suppression campaign are either Pence appointees, Pence allies or active Republicans. The use of police force and intimidation to rig the 2016 elections and prevent minority voters from taking part in this November's elections are currently unprecedented in the United States.
- Republican Secretary of State Connie Lawson, the author of Indiana's notorious voter-ID law and longtime leader of the partisan effort to deny tens-of-thousands of law-abiding Hoosiers their right to vote. Lawson was the state's chief elections officer in 2014, when Indiana had the lowest voter turnout in the nation and its own worst turnout in 60 years. Lawson has also refused to release public records relating to political role in targeting registration of African Americans in her state.
- State Police Superintendent, Douglas G. Carter, who was sworn in on Monday, Jan. 14, 2013, after being "chosen for the position by new Indiana Gov. Mike Pence," according to an ISP news release (http://whatsnewlaporte.com/2013/01/14/laporte-native-douglas-carter-takes-helmas-indiana-state-police-superintendent/). Carter is a registered Republican who votes in Republican primaries.
- "Investigator" William Stoney Vann, a state police sergeant and Republican candidate for local sheriff, who has actively harassed African American canvassers engaged in the group's nonpartisan voter drive. Vann is also a Facebook friend of Republican Connie Lawson, one of the party leaders behind the police suppression of African American voters. Vann votes in Republican primaries.
- "Investigator" Jeffrey C. Hearon, a registered Republican who lives in Danville, Hendricks County, Indiana, the same small town where Republican Lawson lives. Danville has a population of only 9,000. Hearon votes in Republican primaries.
- State Police spokes-person David R. Bursten, a registered Republican and Pence supporter, who has been the public face of this week's partisan and unlawful raid designed to make it harder for African Americans to vote. Bursten is a repeat donor to Mike Pence's political campaigns.
Attorneys for the Indiana Voter Registration Project (the "Project"), a non-partisan program run by Patriot Majority USA, have formally requested that the Voting Section of the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division initiate an investigation into efforts by public officials of the State of Indiana to suppress tens of thousands of African American votes.
His studies in history and background in the media industry have given him a keen insight into the use of mass media as a creator of conflict in the modern world.

A Pandora's box of plutonium
TEXAS is famous for being big. Everything in the state is on an enormous scale, and the panhandle around Amarillo is no exception. Vast farms surround the windswept prairie city, producing huge quantities of cattle and grain. Just outside the city limits, the giant slaughterhouse processes thousands of carcasses every day. On Interstate 40, the Big Texan restaurant promises patrons a free 24-ounce steak – so long as they eat it within an hour.
Amarillo is also home to one of the world's largest stockpiles of plutonium. In bunkers a few kilometres from the city limits, plutonium from more than 140 warheads a month is piling up at the US government's Pantex nuclear weapons factory. There is a big question here too: what to do with this growing stockpile? In June, the Department of Energy in Washington DC began holding public hearings and started a "stockpile stewardship and management" study to find an answer.
Many scientists and environmentalists warn that the government's present strategy of simply storing the plutonium could do more harm than good because it does nothing to reduce the risk of environmental disaster, and, rather than discourage other countries from developing nuclear weapons, it could provoke them to increase their efforts.
Pantex is a high-security factory where energy department workers assembled most of America's nuclear arsenal. The weapons are now being brought back to be dismantled. Under arms treaties agreed with the former Soviet Union, the US is obliged to decommission more than 15 000 nuclear weapons by 2003, leaving it with a relatively paltry 3500 weapons.
Even during the Cold War, Pantex workers dismantled nuclear weapons: mostly those that had passed their use-by date. In those days, the spherical explosive cores or plutonium "pits" – did not stay at Pantex. They were shipped 600 kilometres north to just outside Denver, Colorado, where they were recycled for use in new weapons in the Rocky Flats processing factory.
But today the US is producing no new nuclear weapons, and Rocky Flats closed down in the early 1990s leaving behind an environmental legacy of contamination with plutonium and other toxic chemicals. Now whenever workers at Pantex dismantle a nuclear warhead, the pit is sealed in a steel container and stacked in earthcovered bunkers on-site. These warehouses were built in the 1940s to store conventional bombs.
About 7000 pits are stored in Pantex, and plant officials expect to add about 1500 a year for the next few years. At present, the pits will remain where they are until the government decides what to do with them, and that will depend on recommendations made by the energy department's study.
Bill Weinreich, general manager of Pantex, says the plant is a natural choice for long-term storage because it already has the necessary guards and strict security to protect the plutonium. He wants to build a $125 million, ultramodern underground bunker to store the pits. This strategy would ensure the future of jobs at Pantex even after the American nuclear arsenal has been dismantled.
Many people have a sneaking suspicion that the government wants to keep the pits in a reusable form. And the way that Pantex handles them certainly gives this impression. Starting next January, as workers dismantle warheads, they will start putting the pits in a new type of storage container. The 6-millimetre-thick stainless steel cylinders will be filled with the inert gas argon, which will not react chemically with the plutonium, and welded shut. The container is designed to last for at least 25 years and will probably last 50, Pantex officials say. Even pits that have already been stored will be repackaged in the new containers.
But leading scientists argue against storing the pits for long periods. In July, a committee of the National Academy of Sciences told the government to convert the pits into a form that would be useless for bomb making.
The problem with storing plutonium in a reusable form stems from how the policy could be perceived abroad, says John Holdren, chairman of the committee that wrote the report. The pits could, for example, be fitted into new nuclear weapons at a later time. So other nations might interpret long-term storage of the pits as a sign that the US is keeping open the option of restarting the arms race. Simply storing the pits could foster further nuclear proliferation, says Holdren.
"Indefinite storage of plutonium is not a good idea," agrees Paul Leventhal of the Nuclear Control Institute, a pressure group based in Washington DC that opposes nuclear proliferation. "It's not going to instil a lot of world confidence in the progress of disarmament."
According to Thomas Cochran of the Natural Resources Defense Council in Washington DC and a frequent critic of American nuclear policy, the energy department is apparently planning to leave most of its retired plutonium in a ready-to-use state. Arms control experts estimate that dismantling the warheads will release about 100 tonnes of plutonium.
So far, the US has declared only about 35 tonnes as surplus to requirements, and most of this is from military reactors and other weapons factories. Cochran says that only 6 tonnes of the surplus comes from plutonium pits.
"What's being offered up for disposal is not the 'sweet stuff'," he complains. "People are being misled with regard to the pace and significance of the dismantlement process." When the US finishes dismantling its weapons, it will probably still have a huge cache of plutonium pits ready for use. One alternative to long-term storage, according to Holdren's committee, is to mix plutonium with uranium to produce a mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel for civil nuclear reactors. Another option is to mix the plutonium with radioactive waste and vitrify the cocktail. The government may want to use both techniques and should prepare the ground for both, says Holdren.
There are, however, obstacles to these solutions. Plutonium has a bad public image in the US, and many power companies are likely to face enormous pressure not to burn MOX fuel in their reactors. This problem might be eased if Congress were to state openly that using plutonium in nuclear fuel would be "in the public interest", says John Ahearne, a former commissioner of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and a member of Holdren's committee.
The US government would also have to subsidise the manufacture of MOX fuel so that it would cost no more than conventional uranium fuel, says Holdren. Even that might not be enough to convince power companies to take the plutonium plunge, and the US government might have to resort to buying one or two reactors to ensure that plutonium is fissioned, Holdren says. Two reactors could consume only 50 tonnes of plutonium in 25 years, he says.
The option of vitrifying plutonium and other nuclear waste together also presents problems. Researchers would have to develop a glass that would remain stable for thousands of years, and a mixture that would not support a chain reaction. And then there is the question of where to put the glass "logs". The government has planned to bury spent fuel from civilian reactors beneath Yucca Mountain in Nevada and the logs could go there, said the committee. But in June, the House of Representatives voted to cut off funds to the Yucca Mountain project.
Even if the repository is finally approved, and tests show that storing the surplus plutonium is safe, large-scale vitrification could not start until about 2005 – about four years after reactors could conceivably start consuming MOX fuel. But once started, vitrification would be faster, processing 50 tonnes of plutonium in eight years. None of the Holdren committee's alternatives is cheap – each one could cost as much as $2 billion.
If the energy department rules out these options, and sticks with long-term storage, there is still another issue that it cannot overlook – local opposition. "We've done our patriotic duty over the years. Is it our responsibility to be the area that has to safeguard all the plutonium the US has produced?" complains Doris Smith, who lives near the Pantex plant and is a spokeswoman for a local opposition group, the Panhandle Area Neighbors and Landowners.
Heavy metals
She says that mishandling the plutonium could lead to an environmental disaster, such as polluting the Ogalalla Aquifer – the largest in the US – which runs directly beneath Pantex. The site is already contaminated with heavy metals, chemical solvents and explosives, and the aquifer is protected only by a layer of clay under the site.
Local campaigners have already shown that are a force to be reckoned with. In 1993, when the energy department desperately needed a place to store the pits after Rocky Flats closed, it prepared an environmental study which concluded that it was not a "credible" accident scenario that an plane could crash into the bunker at Pantex.
However, activists pointed out that military and civilian planes often fly over Pantex, and that a 1983 study of the environmental impact had listed a plane crash as an unlikely, but real, risk. Faced with vocal public opposition, the energy department eventually agreed to cap the number of pits at 12 000 until a new environmental impact statement is completed, probably next year.
The energy department's stewardship study is supposed to settle on the best option, taking the environmental assessment into account. But Beverly Gattis, spokeswoman for Serious Texans Against Nuclear Dumping, another local pressure group, fears that the energy department's study will try to keep the pits at Pantex. "It's science with a point of view," she says. "I wouldn't even call it science."
Gerald Johnson, who oversees Pantex at the energy department, says that with all the political and technological hurdles the choice of what to do with the pits is going to be a "very difficult decision". Until that decision is made, Pantex officials such as Weinreich have no doubt about the best home for the pits. "We obviously think that location is here." (see Diagram)

International Monetary Fund (IMF) Deputy Managing Director Min Zhu says there is a need for structural reform in order for middle income countries to upgrade from that class to the high income countries. Zhu, who was in the country this week, said in addition there is a need to create more job opportunities and also enhance public finance management and cut other unnecessary subsidies. He said there is also a need to put funding support in the region to unlock potential in the middle income countries.
Zhu said challenges facing the middle income countries that the regional conference agreed to address include weak external growth and adopting new technologies. The regional conference on Small and Middle –Income countries (SMICs) hosted in Gaborone on Friday addressed challenges that SMICs in Sub-Saharan Africa are facing and policies required confronting the challenges in order to facilitate transition to high income status. The conference was attended by the central bank officials and other government official from other countries. From Botswana, Zhu headed to Ghana to deliver a keynote address at a conference on the value of Enhanced Data for Better Macro-Policies in Africa.

Maiden Homes takes home swag of awards
MAIDEN Homes has taken home three awards from last week's Wide Bay Burnett Master Builder's Housing and Construction Awards.
The Agnes Water and Seventeen Seventy-based builders built the hat-trick dream home "Swell Factor" amid the hills of Seventeen Seventy, though never expected to win awards for it.
Swell Factor netted Maiden Homes the House of the Year, Individual Home $1.26-$2 Million, and Best Residential Kitchen awards.
"It was extremely unexpected," Maiden Homes' Angela Clarke said.
She said being award winners was "pretty amazing", as Maiden Homes didn't go to the awards looking for a win.
Mrs Clarke said the house was quite a large one, larger than Maiden Homes would normally build, but the unique location and block made the build memorable.
"(It was) a really special opportunity for us," Mrs Clarke said.
Mrs Clarke said a lot of effort went into the logistics of the build.
"It was basically on the side of a cliff," she said.
"Most things basically just had to get carried up (by hand) if we couldn't get a crane to carry it up."
Mrs Clarke said the streets around the house were often too narrow for cranes to access however, and the sloped block provided another challenge to the logistics of the build.
Operating in the Agnes Water and Seventeen Seventy area for six years under the Maiden Homes name, Mrs Clarke said the company wasn't exclusive to the high-end market and catered to any price range.
However, the budget on the higher-end homes allowed for much greater creative freedom, leading to Swell Factor including a custom-made Italian lift.
Mrs Clarke said one of the challenges to building in Seventeen Seventy came from having to import supplies from surrounding towns, and speciality items from as far down as Brisbane. But she said the uniqueness to the builds in Seventeen Seventy made new homes stand out from the rest.

Summer barbecues can be a lot of fun. You're outdoors with friends and enjoying sunny days and good eats fresh off the grill. Whether you're hosting the shindig yourself or bringing a dish to share with the group, your top priority when cooking food for others (and yourself) is that no one gets sick. Food safety might not be the sexiest topic, but it's essential.
It's especially important for young kids, older adults and anyone with a weakened immune system. But everyone benefits from food that's safe to eat. With summer barbecue season upon us, it's time to brush up on the basics and learn a few lesser known tricks of the trade, too.
1. Partially Cooking Meat Ahead of Time
Pre-cooking meat seems like a smart way to save time when grill day comes, but it can also introduce health risks. "The problem is that when you partially cook meat, you're not getting it to the right temperature," says Wesley Delbridge, RD, spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
"Even if you put it right back in the refrigerator, it is spending some time in the danger zone," says Delbridge, referring to the temperature range between 40 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit that promotes the growth of harmful bacteria that can make you sick. When in "the zone," bacteria can double in as little as 20 minutes.
If you absolutely have to pre-cook your meat, Delbridge recommends regular temperature checks and limiting total time in the danger zone to under two hours.

2. Defrosting Frozen Food Outside
Have you ever been tempted to defrost frozen foods outdoors? It's already frozen, so it'll transport like an ice pack and warm up naturally over time, right? Except that means food is sitting out in the temperature danger zone. The absolute max time for food to be in the danger zone is four hours total, Delbridge says, but as mentioned above, he recommends two hours to be on the safe side.
"Always defrost food in the refrigerator or in the microwave, not on the counter or outdoors," says Vandana Sheth, RDN, and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. She recommends the Is My Food Safe? app from Eatright.org for any questions regarding food safety. It's free but only available for iOS.
3. Leaving Potato Salad Out For Too Long
Potato salad's reputation as a high-risk picnic food comes from a time when people made mayonnaise from scratch (which involves raw eggs). Fresh mayo or not, though, leaving any food out in the sun for more than two hours is not a good idea. "As temperature rises, the harmful bacteria multiplies," says Sheth, which means "potato salad is best enjoyed within two hours, or one hour if it's more than 90 degrees out."
Bacteria love warmth and thrive especially well between 70 and 135 degrees Fahrenheit, so if you're blessed with a warm, sunny day, keep your cold foods cold (bring along a cooler!) so they stay safer to eat for longer. And consider the total time food has been in the danger zone: prep time, travel time, cooling time and time that food's been out on a table waiting for people to dig in, Delbridge says. It adds up quickly.

4. Not Fully Cooking Meat
"Some major food-borne illnesses can happen with raw meat, including Salmonella, E.coli and parasites," says Delbridge, "so we always want to make sure we're fully cooking it." Salmonellosis from undercooked poultry and beef can lead to stomach cramps, diarrhea and fever within 12 to 72 hours. And some people develop reactive arthritis that can last months or even years.
Symptoms of E.coli appear one to 10 days after exposure and include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea and vomiting. And parasites such as worms in undercooked pork can cause stomach upset, fatigue and fever within days of infection, followed by a second wave of symptoms two to eight weeks later involving flu-like symptoms, face swelling and even heart and breathing problems.
5. Not Using a Food Thermometer
Each kind of meat has a different temperature at which it's safe to eat (ranging from 145 to 165 degrees Fahrenheit), and ground meat requires a higher temperature because greater surface area means more bacterial exposure.
Only a food thermometer can truly tell you when it's done. Check meat temperatures correctly by inserting the thermometer midway through the thickest part of the meat (the edges will be hotter, which won't tell you if the meat is safe to the core), Delbridge says.
Metal thermometers are an affordable option, but they need to be calibrated daily in boiling water or the freezer. Delbridge prefers a digital thermometer, which guarantees temperatures without constant calibration. One last thing: "Clean your thermometer after every check to avoid cross-contamination," says Delbridge.
6. Packing Raw Meat With Raw Fruits and Vegetables
Is it possible to pack raw meat and produce together without cross-contamination? "Absolutely," says Delbridge, "but is it worth the risk? My advice is don't risk it. I don't think you should ever do it. It's not a good idea."
Even if everything is in separate, sealed containers with produce on top, he says it's nearly impossible to guarantee that cross-contamination didn't occur somewhere in all of the packing, traveling and moving about.
And packing different meats in the same container is also a bad idea. "Chicken has to be cooked to a higher temperature than beef; so if they touch, you won't be cooking beef to a high enough temperature." If you're already in the park reading this, his advice is to cook all meat to 165 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 15 seconds.

7. Not Washing Fruits and Vegetables
Remember the last E.coli outbreak? The frequency of these alerts is a good reminder that sometimes, a little bit of dirt can do a lot of harm, says registered dietitian Kelly Plowe. Washing fresh produce can minimize the bacteria from soil, but if there's a recall, throw it out.
Plowe recommends washing produce under running water and rubbing to remove any stubborn dirt, even if you're going to peel it, since slicing the skin pushes bacteria into the edible part of the fruit or vegetable.
"If you're making a salad, make sure to rinse the individual leaves, as dirt is often trapped in between, and be mindful of lemons and limes as a beverage garnish or orange slices in a sangria — the intact skin carries bacteria if not washed," she says.
8. Reusing Marinade for Sauce
Marinades are full of flavor, and it seems wasteful to toss the leftovers. Unfortunately, it's as much of a bacterial risk as whatever was marinating in it, and the same food safety rules apply. That's why Sheth says you should marinade food in the refrigerator in order to minimize time in the danger zone.
"Harmful bacteria can spread from raw to cooked food if the same marinade is used as is," she says. That pretty much rules out using marinade as a sauce at a barbecue. But at home — or if you have a full-service outdoor kitchen at your disposal — Sheth says, if you're really set on reusing the marinade, boil it before using.
9. Reusing Platters or Utensils That Have Touched Raw Meat
When you're having a good time socializing with friends, it can be easy to lose track of what's touched raw meat, especially since you can't see bacteria. Re-using cooking utensils is one of the most common mistakes. The grill may be hot, but that doesn't mean it cleaned your cooking tongs.
"Reusing platters or utensils that have been used to handle raw meat can cross-contaminate cooked food with bacteria," says Sheth. Her tip: "To minimize accidental cross-contamination, consider using different colored plates or utensils for cooking versus serving."
And remember that hands count as "cooking utensils," too. "Always wash your hands before doing any meal prep," Plowe says. "Even after your initial wash, it's important to continue while preparing different dishes for a summer barbecue, especially if you're handling raw meats or seafood or fruits and vegetables."
10. Letting Hot Food Cool
When it comes to summer barbecues, it's easy to think about food getting too warm and festering with bacteria. However, it's just as dangerous to let hot food cool down into the danger zone where bacteria love to multiply. In fact, it may be even more dangerous, since bacteria prefer the upper end of the temperature danger zone.
At home, you'd have the option to stash uneaten food in the refrigerator to be reheated whenever you wanted. But outdoors, that's not an option. Ideally, there's no lag time between when food is fully cooked and when someone is eating it. But if people aren't ready when the food is, the best option is to keep hot food on the grill, set to the side away from the coals or flame where it could overcook.

Hey everyone,
One of my Radiator Fan Motors went to that big radiator in the sky and I need a replacement. Factory part $420.
So I'm wondering if they were the same in any other model so I can find a number of them in the junkyard and test them to see if they still have life.
Thanks for helping me (hopefully) save some $$$.!

We are delighted to share with you the short case study the organisers of Wabel trade show have put together to showcase HTC Health as an example of a company, which demonstrated exceptional results and benefited from attending the show. We are proud to confirm 2018 was one of the most successful years in the HTC history and there has been a number of different factors that have contributed to this outstanding result – many of which are described in detail in the linked article.
To access the full version of the Case Study, please click here.
HTC had great aspirations for 2018/2019. Over the year, we set out to significantly increase our overall sales and broaden our international presence, all while maintaining our high level of customer service and widening our range of quality products. We have implemented two main strategies to accomplish these goals: one to reach out to our ideal customers in other markets and the other to increase customer retention.
As a part of this strategy, representatives of our Sales & Marketing teams attended Wabel Beauty, Personal & Home Care Summit in October 2018 and found the event to be a great networking platform between the top suppliers and the biggest European retail groups.
"The personal meetings arranged by Wabel organisers during the event were great, as they knew exactly which people/companies could benefit most from having a conversation with us. The Wabel Summit opened up a wide sphere of possibilities and projects for HTC." said HTC Health Marketing Manager, Marta Kolodziejska.
Also, HTC Head of Sales, Cressida Cable, spoke highly of the event: "The Wabel Summit in 2018 was one of my favourite trade shows of the year; both as an attendee and an exhibitor. It was extremely well organised and gave us great opportunity to connect with multiple companies across the continent. We really recommend those in the Health & Wellness industry attend and I'm already looking forward to Wabel Summit 2019 next month! We're really proud to have delivered the incredible result of 33% growth for FY18. We couldn't have achieved this without prioritising and working closely with our fantastic customers, having collaborative spirit and networking wisely."
Wabel allows suppliers to identify qualified buyers, connect with them through the Wabel platform, and meet them in private at the Wabel Summits. The Wabel Home, Beauty & Personal Care Summit is coming up in Paris on October 16-17, 2019.

Hockey tournaments have started for our house which means full weekends at the rink and hungry boys! Today I made chocolate zucchini cake and bearclaw cookies to have in addition to our energy balls for snacks during these hectic times. Here are a few guidelines for making sure your little athletes are nourished properly.
- Hydration: This includes drinking before, during and after an activity. Water is the appropriate drink for activities that are an hour or less.
- 2-3 hours before an activity, have your child drink 400-600 mL water
- During the event, your child should drink 150-300 mL every 15-20 minutes
- After the activity, your child needs to rehydrate. They can do this by drinking approximately 4 mL/kg body weight.
- Food: Never try a new food right before an activity!
- Before an activity, have your child eat a meal at least 3 hours before so they can properly digest it. This meal should include carbohydrate, protein and fat.
- They can have a snack 1 hour before that is high in carbohydrate and moderate protein. Try to avoid items that are high in fat or fibre 1 hour before the game to avoid stomach upset.
- If it is an early morning practice (like our 6:00 am today!), provide a snack before and have a meal after.
- During an activity they do not need food if it's less than 1 hour.
- After an activity, if there is less than 24 hours before the next activity, provide something with carbohydrate and protein within 30 minutes for proper muscle repair. If there is more than 24 hours until the next activity your child can wait until their next meal or snack to refuel. This meal should include a balanced meal with carbohydrate and protein.
- Examples of post meal snacks:
- Yogurt and berries
- Bearclaw cookie with peanut butter
- Chocolate Zucchini Cake with a glass of milk
I will post the recipes for the above bearclaw cookies and zucchini cake in my next posts. They are a great addition to the snack bag that I carry around!
Happy hockey tournament season…maybe I'll see you at the rink 🙂

It's been 7 years since I've promoted an album. Things have really changed.
There are now a bunch of sites that you have to PAY to get a review from...and some artists are actually using them. Wow.
How do you even have the pretense of objectivity with such an arrangement? And how, once the source of such a review becomes known, does anyone in the industry take such a review seriously?
What used to be called payola is pretty rampant too: paying for spins on online stations...yet all the while the opportunities for revenue for independent artists are vanishing. There are even sites where you can register your songs as Creative Commons with no limits on licensing so, in theory, PepsiCo could use one of your tunes in an ad and never pay you any royalties. And those services, too, have a ton of artists on them giving it all away.
So sad that the arts have become so undervalued, so cheap...so disposable.
I suppose against the larger backdrop of a planet whose biosphere is spiraling out of control, it's a minor little concern, but it still saddens me to see artists willing to pay large sums of money to give their work away for free, essentially.
I really feel sorry for younger acts who are trying to make any sort of living at this...for a time, it was different. Me, I'm old and my material is out of step with the times...so I know that I have to make my income via non-musical means...and I mostly always have...but what a massive set of disincentives for anyone getting into this field. Frankly, if my muse was not screaming at me and had I not had the desire to leave a more expanded musical legacy than what I would have left otherwise, I would not have recorded the two new albums...but I have and it means I have to have at least a minor go at promoting them to do them justice...but what a weird little world for indie artists it's become.

Welcome to Hacking 101: Vulnerability Assessments! This will be our first entry in a new "Hacking 101" series, giving you the knowledge needed to better protect yourself in today's cyberthreat landscape.
In our last article, we covered the basics of penetration testing. To illustrate how part of the process works, I wrote a very simple, high-level guide on how to conduct your very own vulnerability assessment. We'll make this short and easy, so you can make educated decisions on how to tackle IT security or when to engage with specialized security professionals (like us!). Have fun, and don't try this on your competitors' websites!
Some disclaimers: We won't make this a full penetration test how-to. Like the previous article hinted, penetration tests require a lot of time and effort, and this can't be a substitute to one. Basically, vulnerability assessments only point you in the right direction in terms of where weaknesses lie. They don't tell you if the reported vulnerabilities actually exist, how to exploit them, or how to fix them. Penetration tests – and only penetration tests – give you all the information you need to fully address security weaknesses. As a matter of personal and professional ethics, I also have to inform you that this guide won't help you with HIPAA or NIST compliance; you'll need to do a lot more to get to that level.
The Tools You'll Need
Although myriad security tools exist, we'll keep things simple by only using two tools, Nmap and the free version of Nessus.
Nmap is a free and open source networking tool. While IT administrators use Nmap for myriad reasons, such as IT asset inventory or system uptime monitoring, we as security professionals care about one specific feature of Nmap. Namely, we use the tool to check what ports and applications exist on each target system. If we find open ports, Nmap can tell us what services run on each port, what OS and application versions the system uses, and even what security tools protect the system! I've heard Nmap called the "Swiss army knife of security tools", and I love using it. Software security is critical in the digital world. Securing your applications is fundamental, because if your application goes down, leaks data, or behaves maliciously, the consequences can be devastating. Check out this guide to application security testing from Parasoft to learn more.
Protip: Nmap works through the command line only. If you'd prefer, download Zenmap, which wraps Nmap in a (comparatively) easy-to-use graphical user interface.
Nessus is an automated vulnerability scanner. When pointed to a target, it scans the target, lists any weaknesses it finds, and lists those weaknesses in several easy-to-read report formats. Nessus costs a lot of money – almost $2,200 annually! Thankfully, the makers of Nessus offer a seven-day free trial. I don't know about you, but I'd rather not pay thousands of dollars to use this. Let's sign up for the trial, input the trial key, and be on our way.
Protip: Use a "throwaway" email to register. Otherwise, Tenable will bombard you with trial reminders and marketing emails.
Note: I use both these tools on Linux. You don't have to; just know that what you see may differ from my screenshots.
Step 1: Scanning your Target with Nmap
If you want, you can start learning more about Nmap by typing "nmap –help" in a terminal. That will show you all the ways we can configure Nmap. We only care about a few specific options right now:
- -p [ports]: This flag specifies the ports that Nmap will scan. We specify 1-65535 to scan all possible ports.
- -sV: This flag means Nmap will try to find the application and version number associated with each port. We call this "fingerprinting".
- -O: This flag will ask Nmap to find what version of operating system our target uses.
In practice, we use a lot more of these flags. Pick a few and play around with them, see what happens!
In our example, I pointed Nmap to a lab environment I use for pentesting, called "dvwa". You can also use an IP address or URL if needed. I used the listed flags, and here's what we see:
We find that Nmap can connect to five ports (21, 22, 80, 443, and 3306). Right below the port details, we see that our target runs Linux ("Running" and "OS details") in a VMWare virtual machine ("MAC Address").
From here, we can narrow our attack surface significantly. We have fingerprinted each service on each port, so we can now run Nessus and see if any of thoseservices have exploitable weaknesses!
Step 2: Configuring and Running Nessus
When you've downloaded, installed, and activated Nessus, you'll see a screen similar to the below:
Click on "Create a New Scan".
Click on "Basic Network Scan". Under "Settings" > "Basic" > "General", name this scan under "Name" and input your target information under "Targets" (remember, mine is "dvwa").
Go to "Settings" > "Discovery", and change "Scan Type" to "Custom".
Go to "Settings" > "Discovery" > "Port Scanning". Check the box entitled "Consider unscanned ports as closed". Specify the port numbers found in our Nmap scan in "Port scan range" (mine were 21, 22, 80, 443, and 3306).
Click the "Save" button at the bottom of the page. You'll get redirected to the "My Scans" page.
Check the box next to your newly-created scan. Click the "More" menu option, then click "Launch".
Confirm on the second prompt (if you get one). You'll know you're running the scan successfully by the appearance of a green refresh icon next to the "Last Modified" date.
When the green icon turns into a grey checkbox, like above, Nessus has finished scanning. Click on your scan. On the next screen, check the checkbox next to it, then move to the "Export" menu and click "PDF".
Click "Export" again if needed. Download and open your PDF. You successfully completed your vulnerabiliity assessment!
In this blog post, I walked you through a very simple vulnerability assessment. Using Nmap, we scanned all ports of a single target machine and fingerprinted each active service. We passed those results to Nessus, which then executed a simple vulnerability scan. We finally downloaded and reviewed Nessus's findings report, which we can then use in further testing and remediation activities.
Although we left a lot out, we still received an actionable listing of potential weaknesses in our system. If you, your IT staff, or your preferred IT security partner conduct comprehensive vulnerability assessments at regular intervals, you'll make great progress in securing your practice's IT assets against ransomware and cybercriminals.

The future is here with connected vehicles. A connected vehicle (automobile) is equipped with internet access and its own local network. This enables the vehicle to share internet access with other devices both inside as well as outside the vehicle.
The most common discussions about the connected vehicle are around what they do for the consumer. However, manufacturers and their transportation service providers (truckers, railroads, etc) will also be able to 'connect' electronically to the vehicle to access data that will improve management of the vehicle supply chain. This data, like their location, battery life, longitude/latitude, etc. can be transmitted between partners as the vehicle moves through the supply chain to the dealer.
AIAG created the FVL Visibility Connected Vehicle Work Group to determine how the connected vehicle(s) will support logistics management - to improve processes and reduce management costs.
Comprised of OEM Management, the FVL Visibility Connected Vehicle Work Group is focused on creating standards that facilitate open source visibility and will benefit both the OEM and their transportation supply base. This group is leading the way in determining the hand-offs required from transportation providers and how the OEMs will interface with the connected vehicle.
*Please check back in the future as this work group will be opening up to service providers!
These companies are participating in this work group:
Program Management: Supply Chain Team - (248) 358-3570
Looking for more information about the FVL Visibility Connected Vehicle work group? E‑mail us!
The work group is currently in the process of developing standards for the automotive industry. Once developed, these standards will be available for the public. Please contact us for more information.

The first effort of its kind in Ohio and across the Midwest, right to counsel legislation guarantees legal representation in eviction cases for Cleveland families with children living at or below the federal poverty line
Cleveland is the fourth U.S. city to enact Right to Counsel, a proven model which saves millions of dollars in U.S. cities
CLEVELAND: United Way of Greater Cleveland applauds the passage of key legislation today by Cleveland City Council, a city-wide effort that guarantees legal representation for families with children living at or below the poverty line and facing eviction with United Way serving as Lead Partner Organization.
The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland's Housing Justice Alliance effort, initially funded by the Sisters of Charity Foundation's Innovation Mission and now led by United Way, marks the first of its kind in the state of Ohio and across the Midwest. Cleveland is only the fourth city in the U.S. to pass this legislation which will stabilize the person in need to prevent eviction and break the cycle of poverty.
"Right to counsel is not about tenant versus landlord -- it's about stabilizing the person in need to prevent eviction and United Way is proud to work alongside City Council, Legal Aid and the Housing Justice Alliance on this public-private partnership," said Augie Napoli, president and CEO of United Way of Greater Cleveland. "This city-wide effort is exactly what fuels the kind of change we need to permanently break the cycle of poverty in Cleveland. We applaud Cleveland City Council on the passage of this essential legislation and Council President Kelley for his leadership and courage in making right to counsel a reality."
Approximately 9,000 evictions are filed in the City of Cleveland each year -- 60 percent include households with children. Eviction can cause costly and traumatic instability issues and is a root cause of poverty leading to homelessness, job loss and decreased academic performance and school attendance.
"This legislation was not only the right thing to do, but the moral thing to do and I thank City Council for passing Right to Counsel on behalf of the citizens in our city," said Cleveland City Council President Kevin Kelley, lead sponsor of the legislation. "We are committed to restoring basic human rights to families in our city and to stabilizing our neighborhoods through our city-wide partnership with United Way and other organizations who have played a vital role in advancing this legislation."
As the Lead Partner Organization for the Right to Counsel program, United Way brings not only fundraising capacity but also experience in program development and administration, as well as data collection, analysis and outcome measurement. United Way will lead the tracking and reporting of progress made as a result of the passage of this legislation.
For decades, United Way has invested heavily in housing stability and emergency housing. With United Way serving as Lead Partner Organization of the right to counsel legislation, individuals will receive access to legal counsel, as well as access to United Way's provider network of health and human services nonprofits to connect with wrap-around care, including food, childcare, education, employment opportunities and more. The program will provide legal representation to eligible tenants beginning in June 30, 2020.
The Right to Counsel program is the latest initiative within United Way's Impact Institute, a think tank with an action plan that gathers the brightest minds throughout private and public sectors to create solutions addressing the root causes of poverty.
By the numbers
In Cuyahoga County, 80 percent of landlords cited non-payment of rent as the primary cause for their eviction filing, and 40 percent of homeless families cited eviction as their primary reason for living in a shelter.
An average of $1,200* in rental support would have prevented eviction, according to preliminary research from Case Western Reserve University — a fraction of the cost of a stay at an emergency shelter for a family, which can cost more than $16,000** on average, according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Across the country last year, more than half a million people experienced homelessness on a single night.
Right to Counsel is a proven model that has saved millions of dollars in U.S. cities, including New York City, which experienced an 84 percent decrease in evictions for tenants with legal representation and an estimated cost savings of $320 million per year by preventing issues like family homelessness. Newark and San Francisco also have Right to Counsel.
Tenants can seek more information by contacting United Way's 2-1-1 HelpLink, a free and confidential 24-hour lifeline with referral specialists or the Legal Aid's tenant hotline at 216-861-5955.
Founded in 1913, United Way of Greater Cleveland is a local, independent nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting poverty across the Greater Cleveland area. The largest private-sector investor of health and human services, United Way invests in efforts that address poverty using a two-pronged approach. The first prong focuses on the daily issues affecting those living in poverty, the Community Hub for Basic Needs. The second drives research and innovation through the Impact Institute, a think tank with an action plan, focused on identifying long-term solutions to break the cycle of poverty.

*approximately two months' rent
** the approximate cost to stay in an emergency shelter for 68 nights, the average number of nights per stay

The Hollywood Reporter says Rodrigo Santoro, star of Redbelt, 300, and the upcoming 300: Rise Of An Empire, has signed on to play the villain (they call him the "foil," but he sure sounds like the villain) in the Will Smith movie Focus. According to THR's Borys Kit, Santoro will play "the magnetic and powerful owner of an international auto racing team" who hires Smith's con man "to gain a competitive edge for his racing team" and competes with him for the love of con woman, played by Margot Robbie. Oh, those international auto racing team owners: magnetic and powerful. They've got it all going for them.
The most intriguing part of the news isn't so much Santoro's participation (although he's a fine actor) but Focus' curious subject matter (magnetic and powerful racing magnates versus con men) and its surprising creators: Glen Ficarra and John Requa, the writers of Bad Santa and the writer/directors of Crazy Stupid Love. Ficarra and Requa are underrated talents, and their overlooked gem I Love You Phillip Morris was also about a con man of sorts. But this film, with the potential for big racing sequences and smoldering love triangles, sounds decidedly out of their wheelhouse of dark romantic comedies. That friction could be problematic, or it could be really interesting. Here's hoping for the latter.
