Sidelights. Ken Catran is one of New Zealand's most prolific and acclaimed writers for children. His many science-fiction novels include the "Deepwater" trilogy and "Solar Colonies" series, which explore the impact of new technologies on human societies. Catran has also written several mysteries, and is particularly known for his historical novels. Voyage with Jason, a retelling of the story of Jason and the Argonauts, was named Book of the Year by the New Zealand Post. Many critics admired the novel's focus on character rather than plot. "Vivid descriptions of the characters and their interaction with each other bring them to life," wrote Lana Miles in the School Library Journal. According to Kallie George, writing in the Canadian Review of Materials, the book's "personal perspective … is wonderful and refreshing." Events from more recent history have also inspired Catran. Seal Boy, for example, recounts the story of a privileged New England boy who is kidnapped and taken aboard a whaling ship bound for New Zealand in the 1840s. A reviewer for the New Zealand Book Council's publication BRAT described the story as an "adventure of impressive proportions." Lin and the Red Stranger, which was nominated for the Young-Adult Fiction award given by the New Zealand Post, is set in the gold mines of Otago, New Zealand, during the late 1800s. The novel focuses on the brief relationship there between a young girl from China and an Irish miner who has come to New Zealand to escape a troubled past. A BRAT reviewer praised the book for its original plot and its sensitive recreation of this era. Among Catran's crime novels is Bloody Liggie, about a teenage girl who kills her parents and then escapes prison. School Library Journal contributor Vicki Reutter found elements of the plot contrived, but concluded that the book's thrilling plot would attract fans of writers such as R.L. Stine. Another mystery, Dawn Hawk, explores what happens when one of two original floatplanes built by the Wright brothers is found in New Zealand. The book's "fast-paced plot," wrote Michele Capozzella in the School Library Journal, "will keep readers engaged." Jacko Moran, Sniper, the first of a tetralogy about the Moran family, is set during World War I and tells the story of a teenager who escapes his abusive father to enlist as a soldier. The book won the Esther Glen Award for distinguished contribution to literature. The remaining books in the series follow the Moran family through World War II, the Vietnam War, and the war in Iraq in the early 2000s. Catran has also written extensively for television, including the children's science-fiction series Children of the Dogstar, which won the New Zealand Feltex best drama award in 1984. He has also written for the hospital-based series Shortland Street, New Zealand's longest-running drama series. Biographical and Critical Sources. PERIODICALS.

Literature / Deepwater Black. Deepwater Black (aka Mission Genesis ) was a trilogy of Young Adult science fiction books by New Zealand author Ken Catran. The first book in the series, Deepwater Black , was about Robbie Mikkelsen, an Ordinary High-School Student who starts his story as he's having some bizarre encounter with Yoona, a girl only he can see. Yoona speaks some gibberish about his life being a "long prex", and tells him that there's some ship called Deepwater where their lives are being threatened by some "jel" in the tubes. and she promptly punches him. It turns out that "Robbie" is really Reb, one of an all-child crew cloned from people from the "Solar Colonies" which include Mars and Ceres. And the "prexing" is a dreamlike state owing to the fact that the children are all clones (although Reb's prexes are unusual in this regard—the only other time we see a character prex, it's to Yoona's life on Mars). Together, Reb and Yoona seek to unravel the mystery of the Deepwater, and exactly why the hell their lives are being threatened by the "jel". It turns out that they're out to re-seed the Earth after it was annihilated by a virus (they need to accomplish this by going in the opposite direction, then circumnavigating the entire universe ), but to do that, they need the gene banks from another, earlier Deepwater. And the jel is being sent by a rogue computer. Meanwhile, the B-plot centres around the friendship between "Robbie" and local girl Denie Miles. The second book, Deepwater Landing , reveals that Denie also was prexing, and her real name is Cei. The plot of the book this time revolves around their need to get to the other Deepwater and get their gene banks. The final book, Deepwater Angels , revolves around school bully Connal "Meatgrinder" Burkitt, as it's revealed that he's the last one to awaken (his name is Conn). This time around, the crew are back on Earth, and Connal has to figure out exactly how to get life to re-start. The books make for remarkably quick reads, although the pacing leaves a lot to be desired (although this perhaps mirrors the overload Reb gets when he awakens—he's confronted with jel, "Trites", the weirdness of the thing and a large black mass). When it was adapted to a TV show, several plot points (including the entire characters of Cei and Conn) were jettisoned while others were expanded on. Prexes now never went any further than what was relevant to the episode, but each episode tended to be A Day in the Limelight. It was cancelled after 13 episodes. It was notable for changing the spelling for characters Yoona and Lis (now "Yuna" and "Lise"), and making the characters into twenty-somethings rather than the younger teens of the books.

    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

With an early lead in feature film production, California has historically been home to the greatest concentration of film industry talent in the U.S., as well as an extensive web of ancillary products, infrastructure and services. But these days, California has competition. Production centers across the globe offer U.S. production companies an enticing combination of film incentives, a skilled workforce and available infrastructure. As a result, U.S. feature films are made all over the world. Among the unique advantages that the film industry provides to local economies are: 1. It is a high-wage industry. A recent report commissioned by the County of Los Angeles revealed that the average wage in the Film and Digital Media Industry in Los Angeles County is $117,000, which is 95 percent higher compared to the county-wide average of $59,900.1 2.
