Wow, what a day, such a day that i felt i had to share it as a day of days in this year of years (sorry i feel a 'rent' quote coming on, because "How do you measure, measure a year?" could it be "525,600 minutes"?)
But i digress! Today has been a big day in the history of SiMILE, we have had our first studio shoot. We provided (along with High Pitch Media) coverage of the results show for the Stafford FIlm Festivals 48 hour film competition. Well.....what an ordeal! First of all we were meant to have a full rehearsal on wednesday with the event oiraniser and all the footage we needed etc etc etc, well he never showed up...instead i ended up only a quick meeting with him on thursday at which point i got told that i wouldnt get the nessecary footage until saturday (yes...today....the day of the shoot!).
So we prepared as much as we could and got to today....we finally got the footage about an hour before we were due to 'air' the programme. So naturally with so little time to prepare there were a few problems, mostly in regard to aspect ratio, which unfortunately the presenter made clear to the audience were in no uncertain terms our fault, even though it really wasnt and all the issues that were brought to our attention were either non existant or completely not our fault! but anyway the university were impressed with us and we did the best we could with the situation! The next studio presentation will be on 25th October which is a conference hosted by Advantage West Midlands, this show will be streamed LIVE via the universities web servers and, of course, I will provide everyone with a link so they can watch SiMILE Media Solutions first LIVE broadcast!
Ok rant over. However i will leave you with 2 things, first is this....it is a HILARIOUS story that i have nicked of my friend from Houston, Lauren Uhyrek, so thankyou so much for this lauren it made me really laugh my head off and i needed that today....here it is:
HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT...this is clever
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term.
The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well:
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law gas (cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So, we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct..... leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."
THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"
And finally to leave you with a picture of the musical i have mentioned in todays blog, that musical, described as "The musical phenomen that defined a generation" (what GREAT reveiw line!) is Rent, so here is your picture!
See all you lovelies sooon!
