    Documentary/Ethnographic Film Resources

    Long shot alert. Anyone know of anywhere I can get documentary/ethnographic films or footage about Algeria apart from Amazon? Ideally somewhere that won't involve dealing with French bureaucrats *eye-stab emoticon*.

    Earning shedloads of cash

    To what extent is this a factor in your proposed or current career path? Does the spectre of a life spent worrying about the price of lattes ever make you consider doing a law conversion course and being done with it t'fuck?

    Last.fm

    is behaving very oddly. I know I haven't been listening to Damien Dempsey, U2 or The Dandy Warhols and was, in fact, on a plane at the time it claims I was doing so. What's going on? Ghost?

    Goddammit.

    As though it isn't bad enough that I have to spend this and every other sunny day for the foreseeable future lurking in the dark with my books, a stupid hot-air balloon just drifted merrily by my window. I can still hear the faint sounds of human delight right now. Bastards.

    Ireland: "So, so beautiful."

    I'm sitting between two Americans who are currently gushing about the beauty of Ireland, the friendliness of her people, the surpassing loveliness of her hostels. I'm tempted to ruin it by barfing in one of their laps.

    Cheap hotels in Paris

    Every time I've been to Paris I've either stayed somewhere nice but expensive, (which is kinda unjustifiable since I'm going on my own for research) or cheap and horrific (8th floor, no lift, accordionist playing outside the window until 4am). Anyone know of anywhere cheap and cheerful?

    Point, Counterpoint: Hooray for babies! vs. Hooray for sterility!

    I'm going to go with Hooray for sterility! after spending an hour trapped beside a thing that yelled all the way from London to Dublin before loudly crapping itself. I do love babies though and would be all for hearing life-affirming stories that involve neither bellowing nor poo.

    India's Missing Women

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/g2/story/0,,2022818,00.html It's estimated that, in India alone, a combination of feticide and infanticide is kiling 930,000 female babies every year. That's more than the total number of deaths in the three years of the Famine. Every year.

    If you could change/improve any aspect of Irish society what would it be?

    I'm gonna go with implementing universal, state-subsidised (and regulated) childcare. Cos it's long overdue.

    Dogme 95

    I was just wondering if anyone cares about the Dogme movement anymore apart from film students and avant-garde-ophiles. Has anyone seen any of the movies apart from Festen and Julien Donkey-Boy? Would any film-types on Thumped be interested in making a collaborative movie that complies with...

    So, the fire brigade is at my house

    Goddamn fire alarm has been blaring for 20 minutes and now there's a fire engine outside. All because the French burd has some weird way of cooking Dolmio.
