Description

As the presenting sponsor of the 27th Annual Santa Barbara International Film Festival, lynda.com is once again pleased to open the door to four entertainment industry panels that feature some of Hollywood’s top talent from the world of producers, directors, and screenwriters. Panelists are carefully chosen during the awards season and include many you’ll see on the Golden Globes® and the Oscars®.

Moderated by Patrick Goldstein (Los Angeles Times columnist for “The Big Picture”), the festival lit up the marquee with a panel of Oscar®-nominated producers you’ll certainly see on the red carpet on February 26, 2012. These professionals cover a wide range of films, from huge-budget effects movies to smaller, ensemble-casted dramas. Graham King (Hugo), who marks his fourth film
with director Martin Scorsese, tells how they worked together to shoot their first 3D film—and their first with kids and animals.

Mike De Luca (Moneyball) needed to develop a working relationship with Major League Baseball, who had final cut on his film.

Bill Pohlad (The Tree of Life) talks about the 10 years it took to green light his film and the obstacles along the way. Jim Burke(The Descendants) worked with director Alexander Payne to put every dollar on the screen while shooting in Hawaii, known to be an expensive location. Letty Aronson (Midnight in Paris) shares the unique working relationship she has with director (and brother) Woody Allen.

Despite the impressive resumes of all of these producers, getting every one of these feature films to the screen presented new challenges.

Forex Trading – Foreign Exchange Course

You want to learn about Forex?

Foreign exchange, or forex, is the conversion of one country’s currency into another.
In a free economy, a country’s currency is valued according to the laws of supply and demand.
In other words, a currency’s value can be pegged to another country’s currency, such as the U.S. dollar, or even to a basket of currencies.
A country’s currency value may also be set by the country’s government.
However, most countries float their currencies freely against those of other countries, which keeps them in constant fluctuation.

It’s about how 2 of my friends (Xan and Jenn Spenser) currently make Over $422.82 a day, $2,959.75 a WEEK
and $13,107.46 a MONTH while “working” for just 20 minutes a day!

I have an unusual money making story to share with you today.
It’s about how 2 of my friends (Xan and Jenn Spenser) currently make Over $422.82 a day, $2,959.75 a WEEK
and $13,107.46 a MONTH while “working” for just 20 minutes a day!
Now, before you jump to conclusions, let me tell you that Xan and Jenn make this kind of money with one
simple website that has nothing to do with “making money”, they have no copy writing skills, no formal
“internet marketing” education, no start-up capital, and because of their jobs had VERY little time… (about 20
minutes per day).
See, I met Xan and Jenn about 18 months ago. They were newly weds, and it was about Christmas time. While
they should have been enjoying their rst Christmas together, they were stressed out because while they had
thought they were being smart investing in real estate, they were now stuck with 4 mortgages and no renters.
They were approaching the holidays with only $38 in their bank accounts – not even enough to buy each other
Christmas gifts.
So there they were, and probably like you, they went online looking for solutions.
Now, I had no idea that was their situation when I met them.
In fact, I met them because at the time I was running a contest called “the $100,000,000 challenge” where we
were teaching our students a very unique way to make money online, and the winner of the contest was going

to win a brand new corvette!
Now, what makes me laugh is later Jenn told me that when Xan told her that he was going to start an online
business and that he was competing to win a corvette, she laughed because he had tried other things in the
past and failed.
She also said she was condent that they would never make any money doing this – BUT… she wanted to
support her husband, so she decided to try with him.
So in January they started watching the training for the contest, and then simply applying everything they
learned. By the end of February they had completed all of the training and by March they launched their
website!
You see, if you setup your business right from the beginning, following the 20 minute payday system, then you
don’t NEED to spend hundreds of hours on your business. You can literally do it in just 20 minutes a day as Xan
and Jenn just proved.
So, now that you’ve seen what they did during their FIRST year online, with just one simple website – would you
like to see what they’ve done so far this year…?
Well, instead of shifting their focus, and putting all of their free time back into the business, they decided they
like their “20 minute a day” lifestyle and didn’t want to waste their new found free time working.
So Xan decided to follow one of his dreams of becoming an actor, and start acting again. He has already been in
a bunch of commercials and just landed the lead role in a new movie!

  • Combine MI with other treatment modalities

Participate in this intensive conference and get the latest Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques by MI founders Drs. Bill Miller and Stephen Rollnick. Join experienced MI trainer, William Matulich, Ph.D., member of the International Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) and learn how to integrate MI skills into your practice.

MI is proven to be effective for common clinical problems such as addiction, anxiety, depression, dual diagnosis (substance abuse), externalizing problems in adults, disruptive behavior disorders in youth, unhealthy lifestyle choices and other self-defeating behaviors.

MI provides a structure that gives responsibility back to the client for change, relieving you of that assumed “burden.” Once your clients make a commitment for change, you will be more successful in providing support and improving treatment outcomes.

During this conference, you will learn the critical skills and processes that make MI more accessible and useful in your everyday clinical practice.

Dr. Matulich will use demonstrations, case examples, role-plays and more to teach you the essential MI skills that your clinical practice is missing to help your clients change.

Description:

The latest findings from neuroscience have given us incredible insights into the workings of the brain and its connection to our psychological and physical well-being. Yet in-depth studies on the brain can be difficult for mental health clinicians to interpret -names like “Subgenual anterior cingulate cortex” mean very little to most of us.

And you face a bigger obstacle than terminology. How do you overcome the challenge of applying complicated scientific and biological information to your clinical practice? How does neuroscience help you when you’re face-to-face with clients working on stress, depression, addiction and the other problems they face each day?

This recording will connect critical concepts from science and biology to your clinical work with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, substance abuse and trauma.

Better still, you’ll go beyond the biological mechanisms that underlie various disorders with detailed instruction on actual treatment strategies you can use with your clients. Through case studies, experiential exercises, and brief lectures you’ll learn to individualize interventions based in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Attachment, and Somatic Psychologies and apply them to the treatment of mood disorders, trauma, addictions, and more.

Better still, you’ll have the opportunity to practice the application of what you’ve learned under the skilled supervision of our instructor, and take home detailed handouts allowing their immediate incorporation into your clinical work.

Cut through the baffling research and inaccessible jargon, and discover how understanding neuroscience can change the way you view and work with your clients!

More information about Medical:

Medicine is the science and practice of establishing the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Medicine encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.
Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics, and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease,
typically through pharmaceuticals or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, medical devices, biologics, and ionizing radiation, amongst others.

Medicine has been around for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art (an area of skill and knowledge) frequently having connections to the religious and
philosophical beliefs of local culture. For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of modern science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (both basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science).
While stitching technique for sutures is an art learned through practice, the knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched arises through science.
