Wikinews interviews Jeremy Hanke, editor of MicroFilmmaker Magazine

Wikinews held an exclusive interview with Jeremy Hanke, editor of MicroFilmmaker Magazine. The magazine, which is free to read online, was started as a resource for the low budget moviemaker and features book, independent film, equipment and software reviews as well as articles on film distribution, special effects and lighting.

He says that one of the goals of the magazine is to “connect low-budget filmmakers via a feeling of community, as many…..often compete so viciously against one another in film festivals for coveted “shots” with Hollywood, that they can quickly forget their similarities.”

When asked if films made on a shoestring budget can really compete with those made for millions of dollars, he replied, “no…yes…and absolutely. Allow me to explain.” And so he does in the interview below.

Toothpaste fills cavities without drilling

Toothpaste fills cavities without drilling

Posted: July 12th, 2021 by Admin

Thursday, February 24, 2005

A paste containing synthetic tooth enamel can seal small cavities without drilling. Kazue Yamagishi and colleagues at the FAP Dental Institute in Tokyo say that the paste can repair small cavities in 15 minutes.

Currently, fillers don’t stick to such small cavities so dentists must drill bigger holes. Hydroxyapatite crystals, of which natural enamel is made, bond with teeth to repair tiny areas of damage.

Yamagishi and colleagues have tested their paste on a lower premolar tooth that showed early signs of decay. They found that the synthetic enamel merged with the natural enamel. The synthetic enamel also appears to make teeth stronger which will improve resistance to future decay. As with drilling, however, there is still the potential for pain: The paste is strongly acidic to encourage crystal growth and causes inflammation if it touches the gums.

The paste is reported in the journal Nature.

Colleges offering admission to displaced New Orleans students/LA-ND

Posted: July 6th, 2021 by Admin

See the discussion page for instructions on adding schools to this list and for an alphabetically arranged listing of schools.

Due to the damage by Hurricane Katrina and subsequent flooding, a number of colleges and universities in the New Orleans metropolitan area will not be able to hold classes for the fall 2005 semester. It is estimated that 75,000 to 100,000 students have been displaced. [1]. In response, institutions across the United States and Canada are offering late registration for displaced students so that their academic progress is not unduly delayed. Some are offering free or reduced admission to displaced students. At some universities, especially state universities, this offer is limited to residents of the area.

Anchors Landing, Lake Hickory, North Carolina Affordable Lakefront Living In Granite Falls

Posted: July 6th, 2021 by Admin

By Matt Lahtela

Lake Hickory Living

Affordable, Beautiful, Great Location, Discover Paradise at Anchors Landing

Do you want to pay lower prices for waterfront property? Do you want a prime location that isn’t far to drive, but still has gorgeous deep water with great boating, fishing and breathtaking views? Does being in a gated, secure waterfront community appeal to you?

Of course, all of the above appeal to you. And, whether you live in the Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton area, Charlotte, Huntersville or Asheville, Anchors Landing on Lake Hickory is just your kind of neighborhood.

“Anchors Landing is no further from Charlotte than the north shore of Lake Norman,” says Matt Lahtela, Director of Sales and Marketing for NClakefront.com Realty. “And, of course, at Lake Norman you have to contend with 1-77. If there’s an accident on Interstate 77, then it could take three hours or more to get home every night. That gets old.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_2wH1PFtFA[/youtube]

“At Anchor’s Landing, traffic is the LEAST of our worries,” Lahtela says with a smile.

Lahtela points out that most local folks around Hickory have no further drive to Anchors Landing than a trip to the grocery store. For those in Charlotte and Asheville, it’s just a relaxing hour (or less!) away.

Yes, and there are other substantial advantages to Lake Hickory over most other recreational lakes. “Most of them, like Lake Norman, are so congested with boat traffic,” said Lahtela. “But Lake Hickory is a breath of fresh air … beautiful, tranquil, relaxing by comparison. And, the prices, well, someone was telling me about some lots in gated communities on Lake Norman going for about three-quarters-of-a-million dollars!”

In addition the beauty of bountiful wildlife and hardwoods, Anchors Landing has an exquisite lakefront clubhouse, swimming pool, community boat slips and dry boat storage and nature trails. Most of the homesites are heavily wooded and an acre or more. The topography of the land is rolling with many homesites sitting up high with spectacular views for miles. Nature lots start at an unbelievable $49,900!

“What an excellent value for your money these days,” Lahtela says of Anchors Landing. “Certificates of deposit are earning such a low rate and the stock market has been on a scary downward spiral. Im reading all of these top financial magazines and newspapers … The Washington Post, USA Today, and they’re saying waterfront real estate is such a safe place for your money. And they’re not making any more waterfront property, you know!”

Lahtela says his buyers come from all over the United States even China and Korea. “The fact that it’s a gated neighborhood is especially attractive to women, for the security. And the nature trails are a huge draw; I’ve seen studies that say walking/nature trails are the top amenity requested in upscale communities today. I’ve seen so many people walking their dogs at sunset. It seems so peaceful and relaxing.”

Anchors Landing has over 25 acres of stocked interior lakes that also have spectacular views and are equipped with sparkling fountains. ”You get the water, the great views, trees, the peacefulness, everything without taking a chance that a motor boat or jet ski will wake you up at 6 a.m. in the morning,” says Lahtela.

Pristine Lake Hickory has 105 miles of shoreline. Lahtela says it’s the third lake in a chain of lakes created by the Catawba River. “That means it’s two lakes nearer the ‘source’ than Lake Norman, and it’s naturally cleaner. And, it fluctuates the least of any of the lakes in the chain. That’s a huge plus because some recreational lakes fluctuate as much as 20 or 30 feet.”

The swimming pool at Anchors Landing includes a Jacuzzi spa and the clubhouse has a full-service kitchen, fireplace and hardwood floors. “Purchase a homesite here and you get the whole community,” says Lahtela. “And the location of this place is just perfect-l0 minutes to a 350-bed hospital, a regional airport and only about an hour and a half to the Greensboro area. And, listen to this, in about 35 or 40 minutes, you can be at the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Blowing Rock and Boone!”

Lahtela says great loan packages are being offered right now, including those that have long-term, low-interest financing. Another great advantage to becoming a part of Anchors Landing is that you can purchase your homesite now and build later, when you’re ready. And, you can choose your own custom builder. Whether for retirement, permanent or vacation home, building when you’re ready gives you great flexibility. You can buy at today’s prices, yet build when you’re ready.

Transit strike affects 100,000 in Helsinki

Transit strike affects 100,000 in Helsinki

Posted: July 2nd, 2021 by Admin

Monday, March 6, 2006

In Helsinki, the Finnish trade union for bus and truck drivers has gone on strike on Sunday evening, mainly over the use of part-time labor. The strike is estimated to affect 100,000 people in the capital area, crowding the remaining transit system on Monday morning. The strike is halting almost half of all bus traffic in and around Helsinki, especially hurting travellers commuting from outlying cities Espoo and Vantaa, where over 60% of bus traffic will be stopped.

The strike also affects 4,000 of Finland’s 55,000 delivery trucks, as well as waste management in many areas. The strike is not affecting trains, trams or the underground, but heavy crowding is to be expected. Authorities are also warning of traffic jams during rush-hours as people use personal cars instead of public transportation.
