The Harlem Shake is an Internet meme in the form of a video of people performing a skit to the song Harlem Shake. Being a meme, the video was replicated using the same concept by many people, which eventually led to it becoming viral in early February 2013, with thousands of “Harlem Shake” videos being made and uploaded to YouTube every day.

The form of the meme was established in a video uploaded on February 2 by five teenagers from Queensland, Australia known as The Sunny Coast Skate. The video started a viral trend of people uploading their own “Harlem Shake” videos. The teenagers’ video, in its turn, was a follow-up to a video by a YouTube comedy vlogger named Filthy Frank featuring a part where several costumed people danced to the song Harlem Shake by Baauer.

Bradford City FC – League Cup Final preps @wembleystadium

February 23, 2013 Published by

Feb 23, 2013. Bradford City’s players visit Wembley ahead of their League Cup final match against Swansea City. 

The squad looked around the pitch and took photos of the stadium.

Bradford have beaten several Premier League teams to reach Sunday’s final, including Arsenal in the quarter-finals and Aston Villa over two legs in the semi-final.

They are the first fourth-tier team to reach the League Cup final since the 1960s.

Bermuda’s own Nahki Wells, with his appearance in the 2013 Football League Cup Final,  will become the first player from Bermuda to appear in an English major cup final.

League Cup final 2013: Bradford striker Nahki Wells targeting path to Premier League and ‘greatness’

There is a refreshing charm to Nahki Wells. Bradford City’s Bermudan forward speaks wistfully of being “destined for greatness” and wanting to play alongside Wayne Rooney before admitting a more prosaic dream: matching the achievements of Shaun Goater. read full article

Bermuda Docs Weekend Film Series (17.02.13) Chasing Ice & Barbara [Trailers]

February 18, 2013 Published by

Bermuda Docs Weekend Film Series

chasingice.com In the spring of 2005, National Geographic photographer James Balog headed to the Arctic on a tricky assignment: to capture images to help tell the story of the Earth’s changing climate. Even with a scientific upbringing, Balog had been a skeptic about climate change and a cynic about the nature of academic research. But that first trip north opened his eyes to the biggest story in human history and sparked a challenge within him that would put his career and his very well-being at risk.

Chasing Ice is the story of one man’s mission to change the tide of history by gathering undeniable evidence of our changing planet. Within months of that first trip to Iceland, the photographer conceived the boldest expedition of his life: The Extreme Ice Survey. With a band of young adventurers in tow, Balog began deploying revolutionary time-lapse cameras across the brutal Arctic to capture a multi-year record of the world’s changing glaciers.

As the debate polarizes America and the intensity of natural disasters ramps up globally, Balog finds himself at the end of his tether. Battling untested technology in subzero conditions, he comes face to face with his own mortality. It takes years for Balog to see the fruits of his labor. His hauntingly beautiful videos compress years into seconds and capture ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breathtaking rate. Chasing Ice depicts a photographer trying to deliver evidence and hope to our carbon-powered planet.

 

“Barbara” Official US Trailer, directed by Christian Petzold

East Germany, 1980. Barbara Wolff is a talented young doctor who has applied for an exit visa from the GDR and, as punishment, has been transferred from her prestigious post in Berlin to a small pediatric hospital in the country. Even though she is constantly aware of the shadowy presence of, and overwhelming numbers of Stasi officers chronicling her every move, every waking hour, she arrives at her new post having already planned a series of dangerous assignations with her lover, with whom she plans to escape to the West, to Poland.

To Barbara, everyone is suspect as a potential betrayer at her new hospital — everyone except the patients, who receive every ounce of her compassion and loyalty, without hesitation. One such potential enemy is a young doctor named Andre. Initially rejecting his overtures of friendship, she is perplexed by his talent, his determination, and his sincerity. It doesn’t jive with the enemies she sees, and those she doesn’t see, all around her. His side interests in art and music, which mirror her own, cause her to let down her guard a bit, and an attraction grows, an attraction she knows she can’t afford to nurture.

In a rare moment of dual repose Andre confides to Barbara that he wound up at this particular post, in self-exile, after an intern whose work he was overseeing made a tragic, unintentional mistake that caused the blindness of two young children. As poignant as the story is Barbara can’t help herself from asking, “Is the story true?”

A young female patient, Stella, arrives at the hospital suffering from meningitis. She immediately latches onto Barbara as the only doctor from whom she will allow treatment and visitation. Barbara takes on a maternal role in addition to her role as a healer as soon as she learns Stella is pregnant.

Life-changing decisions must be made: Will she permit Stella to be returned to a work camp once the meningitis is treated, a fate that will almost certainly imperil the life of Stella’s unborn child? Will she continue to fall in love with a doctor in whom she sees a kindred spirit, a relationship, should it flourish, that might doom her to remain in the East? Will an escape plan hatched by her lover be carried out or thwarted when her prodigious medical skills are suddenly required to possibly save the life of a new patient?

BARBARA is a story of self-sacrifice and freedom and quiet heroism at a time and place when such values are at a premium. It is also about a healer whose morality and set of personal ethics are being called into questions by circumstances specific to that same time and place in history. An Adopt Films release.

His cartoons for the Royal Gazette have been collected in the annual “Woppened” for two decades. He has also illustrated children’s books, including  Andrew Stevenson’s “The Turtle Who Ate a Balloon“(2007) and “The Adventures of Bermuda’s Toad with One Eye” (2008).
