  • International Film Festival April 24 – May 4, 2008 the Washington, Dc International Film Festival
    THE 22ND ANNUAL WASHINGTON, DC INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL APRIL 24 – MAY 4, 2008 THE WASHINGTON, DC INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL A world of films…a window into our world. Whether experienced in movie theaters, on DVDs or television in our homes, on our iPods or computers, films are the major communications media of our time. Hollywood films dominate commercial cinema. However, scores of talented filmmakers around the globe produce thou- sands of quality films that speak with a different voice, provide a different point of view, and tell different stories. Presenting these films in the nation’s capital is the purpose of Filmfest DC. Photo: Chad Evans Wyatt Film festivals are a journey of Tony Gittens, Festival Director and Shirin Ghareeb, Assistant Director discovery, a visual and thought provoking adventure into how people see and interpret our world. Every Filmfest DC is different and every film is unique from every other film in the festival. Together, they comprise an amazing representation of human imagination, commitment and talent. The festival has two special focuses this year — Politics & Film and New Latin Ameri- can Cinema. Obviously, politics are especially prominent during this election season and we wanted to explore the role affairs of state play in people’s every day lives. Latin American filmmakers are always a treasure trove of inventive storytelling. The di- verse selection of new work we have gathered from the Spanish-speaking world (in- cluding Spain) are moving, humorous, and insightful. None of this would be possible without the many dedicated people who have shared their time and talents with Filmfest DC.

  • Destination East Coast Australia It’S All About the Water
    © Lonely Planet Publications 21 Destination East Coast Australia It’s all about the water. The East Coast of Australia bangs into the Pacific Ocean for some 4000km (almost five times that if you measure every notched crag and every sinuous strand). Or maybe it’s the other way around: the Pacific bangs into the coast. Given the number of surfers riding those breaks, it’s probably the latter. Life here revolves around water and so will your trip, often in ways you might not imagine.

    A Comprehensive Review and a Meta-Analysis of the Effectiveness of Internet-Based Psychotherapeutic Interventions Azy Barak Liat Hen Meyran Boniel-Nissim Na’ama Shapira ABSTRACT. Internet-based psychotherapeutic interventions have been used for more than a decade, but no comprehensive review and no extensive meta-analysis of their effectiveness have been con- ducted. We have collected all of the empirical articles published up to March 2006 (n ¼ 64) that examine the effectiveness of online ther- apy of different forms and performed a meta-analysis of all the stu- dies reported in them (n ¼ 92). These studies involved a total of 9,764 clients who were treated through various Internet-based psychological interventions for a variety of problems, whose effec- tiveness was assessed by different types of measures. The overall mean weighted effect size was found to be 0.53 (medium effect), which is quite similar to the average effect size of traditional, face- to-face therapy. Next, we examined interacting effects of various Azy Barak, Liat Hen, Meyran Boniel-Nissim, and Na’ama Shapira, Faculty of Education, University of Haifa, Aba Hushi Rd., Mount Carmel, Haifa, Israel.

The films in this course offer critical perspectives on the history of colonisation in Australia; the legacies of the Stolen Generations; the controversies surrounding Australia’s role in World War One; as well as Australia’s relationships with its Pacific Asian neighbours. We will focus on films that have marked significant shifts in public consciousness about the past such as Gallipoli (1981), Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002) and Balibo (2009). We will also draw on films that have employed innovative narrative and aesthetic strategies for exploring the relationship between the past and the present such as Ten Canoes (2006) and The Tracker (2002). Throughout the course, students will develop their understanding of the methods and concepts of cinema studies. In particular, students will develop a critical vocabulary for analysing how filmmakers have approached the use of memory, testimony, re-enactment, researched detail, allegory and archives across a diverse range of examples.

Contently.com By Natalie Burg You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do. — Henry Ford THE STATE OF AUTOMOTIVE CONTENT MARKETING: MAPPING THE ROAD TO SUCCESS IN 2015 Editor’s Note As someone who has spent approximately 43 percent of his life watching televised sports, I’m no stranger to auto ads. But while the image of manly men hauling dusty boul- ders in shiny trucks will live with me forever, marketing in the auto industry has evolved far beyond that. In fact, it might now be more familiar to those who grew up on 90’s sitcoms. Acura has scored an incredible win by sponsoring Jerry Seinfeld’s “Comedians in Cars Getting Cof- fee,” while Lexus has been featuring Lisa Kudrow’s award-winning “Web Therapy” on its web-series channel, L Studio, for four years running. In an industry where the sales cycle has lengthened to six years, auto companies are embracing the power of content to build relationships over time. In this ebook, we look at the major trends moving the industry forward, as well as the speed bumps that are getting in auto content marketers’ way.

Rhea Perlman took over the role of Nora, after Rosie O’Donnell, became ill. Directed by Scott Elliott, this production will play a limited Off-Broadway engagement February 20 – April 1, with Opening Night on Thursday, March 8 at The Pershing Square Signature Center (The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre, 480 West 42nd Street). Through the microcosm of a rural Connecticut mental health center, Tony Award-winning playwright David Rabe conjures a whole American community on the edge. Like their patients and their families, Dr. Michaels (Ed Harris), his colleague Evangeline (Amy Madigan) and the clinic itself teeter between breakdown and survival, wielding dedication and humanity against the cunning, inventive adversary of mental illness, to hold onto the need to fight – and to live. Inspired by a real clinic, Rabe finds humor and compassion in a raft of richly drawn characters adrift in a society and a system stretched beyond capacity.
