Our singing is usually atrocious, but I thought it was a tad better this morning. Unitarian Universalist Church of Jackson (Mississippi).
“Overcome” was a media project where my class had to create short documentaries with emphasis on resilience as a theme. We used this brief to create a documentary that attempts to shine a light on undiagnosed depression in students, and how to overcome the feelings through resilience. These themes were explored through interviews with a group member, Theo, whose father had passed away earlier that year. Each of us were to create the film independently in two minute increments with me bearing the reins of the first two minutes. I used editing techniques to isolate the interviewees using shrinking frames whilst simultaneously making them seem overwhelmed by introducing other interviewees around them in their own frames. Furthermore the mise-en-scene is kept consistent in these interviews to highlight the scale of the issue. This highly edited piece was inspired by the works of Asif Kapadia who often uses heavy editing over ordinary footage. Given the chance to do the project again, I would focus more on balancing the footage ISO as the footage came out rather grainy. This project had an emphasis on pre-production and thus I have included my processes.

Cobb Classic Vs Valdosta
The #12 Winston-Salem State University Rams could not overcome costly penalties and a late fumble, as they fell to #23 Valdosta State 22-17 in Powder Springs, GA Saturday evening.
The loss drop Winston-Salem State to 1-1, while Valdosta State improves to 2-0.
The game was a rematch of the 2012 DII National Championship game, and it lived up to its billing in an exciting game.
After a scoreless first quarter, Valdosta State got on the board first on a Jake Medlock one yard run for score, and the ensuing two point conversion game the Blazers an early 8-0 lead.
After another Ram punt, the WSSU defense bowed up, with Terry Ross intercepting a Jake Medlock pass and returning it 52 yards for a touchdown to move the Rams to within one at 8-7.
But Valdosta State would answer right back with a 10 play, 70 yard drive finished off by a Cedric O'Neal three yard run to push the Blazers back out to a 15-7 lead heading into the locker room at the half.
WSSU would take the second half kick and march 60 yards in 12 plays, but could only manage a 21 yard field goal from Alejandro Suarez, as the drive stalled, cutting the Valdosta State lead to 15-10.
Once again however, the WSSU Rams could not get off the field on third down, as it led to another Blazer score. This time O'Neal reached the endzone from five yards out to push Valdosta State out to a 22-10 lead in heading into the fourth quarter.
WSSU's Phil Sims would lead the Rams on a long 14 play, 99 yard scoring drive, capped by Sims' first touchdown pass as a Ram, when he would hook up with Marcel Caver for a 15 yard scoring pass and reception to pull the Rams to within five, at 22-17.
Winston-Salem State's defense would continue to play well and forced VSU to punt on several occasions, and the Rams seemed to have the momentum as they would get the ball back with 6:52 left to play.
Rudy Johnson would lead the Rams on a 10 play drive, but on first and goal, Johnson would turn the corner and would score, but eh play would be called back for a holding penalty. On the next play, Johnson would be hit and fumbled and Valdosta would recover at the 12 yard line.
The WSSU defense would stand tall once more, to force a punt, but Valdosta's Medlock would pinned the Rams deep, as he would kick a 75 yard punt, pinning the Rams at the two yard line with 1:09 left.
Phil Sims would find Donovan Rasberry twice, and Jamal Haizlip once to get the ball to midfield with 10 seconds left to play.
But on the final play, Phil Sims' hail mary pass would be knocked down at the goal line, giving the Valdosta State Blazers the 22-17 upset win.
Winston-Salem State did out produce the Blazers in yardage (399 to 391), but the Valdosta State defense kept the pressure on Rudy Johnson and Phil Sims all afternoon, forcing the Rams into just 15 of 44 passing. WSSU was also flagged eight times for 71 yards.
Offensively for WSSU, Rudy Johnson led the rushing attack with 14 carries for 64 yards, while Maurice Lewis rushed 12 times for 42 yards. Tyree Massey rushed seven times for 34 yards.
Phil Sims finished the afternoon just nine of 29 passing for 146 yards and one touchdown, while Rudy Johnson went six of 14 for 116 yards.
Marcel Caver led the Rams in receiving with five catches for 57 yards and one touchdown, while Eric Williams finished with three catches for 80 yards. Bronson Green (40 yds), Jalen McDaniel (37 yds) and Donovan Rasberry (34 yds) had two catches each.
Terry Ross led the Rams defensively, with 11 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, one pass breakup and one interception returned 52 yards for a score. James Hickman finished with nine tackles and Duvontae Covington finished with seven, and Xavier Gregory six tackles on the afternoon.
Winston-Salem State will come back home to Bowman Gray Stadium next week for another tough out of conference matchup, this time hosting the Golden Tigers of Tuskegee University at 6:00 pm.

More than just a walk in The Park
Schwartz, Wittenberg overcome illness to dominate meet
BY STEPHEN LYNCH, Special to The Californian | Saturday, Sep 27 2008 11:11 PM
www.andynoise.com/wolfpack08.html
Shafter's Elizabeth Wittenberg and Foothill's Chris Schwartz had more than one thing in common during Saturday's third Wolf Pack Cross Country Invitational held at The Park at River Walk.
Shafter High cross country runner Elizabeth Wittenberg crosses the finish line in first place and exhausted, Saturday, during the Ridgeview cross country invitational in Bakersfield. (C
The two senior runners not only dominated their respective races, but both did it while feeling slightly ill.
Wittenberg finished the 5K grass course with a time of 20:10 to outdistance second-place finisher Tijerra Lynch of Ridgeview by 54 seconds..
"I honestly didn't feel good before the race," Wittenberg said. "My legs feel bad. "
Schwartz, who ate most of a Baby Ruth candy bar about 30 minutes prior to the boys race, suffered stomach cramps on the way to his winning time of 16:18. Despite the discomfort, the 2007 state champion led start-to-finish.
"I don't usually eat candy before a race," Schwartz said. "I had a banana but I was still hungry."
McFarland's Alfonso Cisneros crossed the finish line in second place, 11 seconds behind Schwartz. Robby Baker of Ridgeview placed third, 20 seconds off the pace.
"It was a really hard race," Cisneros said. "My strategy was to stay close to Chris Schwartz. I was about 12 seconds off so I guess everything went well."
Lynch's result coupled with a fourth-place finish by teammate Jessica Huizar propelled the Wolf Pack to the girls team title with a score of 45. Shafter finished second with 73 , followed by Palmdale with 94, and North with 95 .
With the win the Ridgeview girls are now four-for-four in invitational meets this season. On Wednesday the Wolf Pack handed Centennial its first dual meet loss in school history.
"The girls just worked their butts off over the summer and its paying off," Ridgeview coach Adam Setser said. "I'm just super proud of our girls because they've come such a long way in such a short time."
Cisneros was one of seven Cougars boys to finish in the top-10.
"Today being a little bit warmer we just went with a different approach," McFarland coach Amador Ayon said. "We wanted to go out kind of controlled. The kids wanted run within themselves. They didn't want to exert too much considering that we've been working real hard the last couple of weeks. We wanted to stay as close together as we could as a pack. Our goal was to be 10-15 seconds between (runners) one through seven."
McFarland, the top ranked Division IV school in the state, dominated the boys team competition with a score of 25. Palmdale, the only non Kern County entry in the field, finished second with 95, followed by Ridgeview with 118.
The girls race unfolded perfectly for Wittenberg who took over the lead right before the two mile mark.
"I had three or four girls leading it so I didn't even have to think the first half the race, Wittenberg said. "I got to the point where I felt I can do this, I can pick it up a little bit, so I went."
Lynch, a first-year cross country runner, used a strong kick to pass several runners near the end.
"At the beginning I thought I went out a little to fast," Lynch said. "The hills were a little hard but I just knew I could push through it at the end and I did. Its all a mental thing and so I knew I could get them and I did."
The boys race was largely uneventful with Schwartz turning in another Schwartz-like performance.
"In the beginning I took the lead and I was being challenged for at least a mile and a half," Schwartz said. "After that people started to slow down and I just kept my same pace."

"english weather-speak is a form of code, evolved to help us overcome our natural reserve and actually talk to each other. everyone knows, for example, that 'nice day, isn't it?', 'ooh, isn't it cold?', 'still raining, eh?' and other variations on the theme are not requests for meteorological data: they are ritual greetings, conversation-starters or default 'fillers'." (from 'watching the english: the hidden rules of english behaviour' by kate fox - an excellent, entertaining read, and essential for anyone of any nationality struggling to understand the bizarre behaviour of the english.)

I'm back from our annual conference! The final event of the three-day meeting is an ordination service.
Prior to the service, each year, a group of us gather for a vigil. We're part of an organization calle the Methodist Federation for Social Action.
Our vigil is in honor of those who are excluded, by our denomination's rules, from ordination. We will continue to hold these vigils until people across the entire gender spectrum are accepted, including gays, leabians, transexuals, and bisexuals. The multi-colored stoles that some of the clergy in the photo are wearing symbolize this inclusiveness.
This year, I believe the majority of the clergy participated in the vigil. That's remarkable!

The leader of American Civil Rights Movement, Martin Luther King Jr. was born on January 15, 1929. Each year, the third Monday of January is marked in the United States as Martin Luther King Jr. Day, to mark his birth.
In 2009, the first African American President Barack Obama is inaugurated as the 44th President of USA, a day after this year's Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Even though King was assassinated in 1968, his message of peace and nonviolence has inspired hundreds of people in the US and around the world in their quest for social equality and freedom from tyranny.

SPIN August 2011 iPad Soundcheck: SALEM
"I was nervous about shooting Salem-- they keep the stage pitch black and turn the smoke machines up to 11," explains photographer Charlotte Zoller about the witch house trio. "Every once in a while, I caught a strobe, which was how I snapped this photo." She wasn't the only one overcoming some obstacles that night. The show was marred by technical glitches, but, says Zoller, "[Vocalist] Jack [Donoghue] was dynamic, dominating the stage." That is, as far as anyone could tell.

What better way to overcome the superstitions of bad luck and gloom associated with Friday 13th than to spend the day with a dear old friend. At least, that is how Gumby and Pokey are facing down the darkness of the day. Join them.
an idea for a weekend sermon series on getting over the selfishness of our culture. this was the first draft of the final.
To overcome decreasing productivity due to salinity in south west Bangladesh, Provash and Suchitra, both lead farmers, use tall dikes above their aquaculture pond to grow snake gourd. Having learned about this low risk intervention through FFP's Nobo Jatra project, Provash and Suchitra are able to maximize production by cultivating vegetables and fish simultaneously, which they are able to sell through collection points, linking them to broader value chains. By optimizing limited space using a sustainable approach, Provash and Suchitra, are able to maximize productivity, financial return and improve overall household nutrition.
