Life as Lab Rat
You never know what you are capable of until you have no choice but to face the truth, and your own bank account. I had no money to my name after two years into a master’s program at McGill University, and the summer, once again, promised very little except contract ESL (English as a Second Language) teaching and some private language students who often had classes with me more out of pity than for self-improvement. Usually, with the two roommates who paid their share of the rent of time when they remembered, this worked. But this particular summer ahead of me seemed to be closing tightly around even my very small income. I had to find more money, maybe even earn it in a productive way.

Sighted and Sounded Out
The list is out; the magazine will arrive here soon; the controversy grows. Every ten years, the British Film Institute puts out a special issue of their magazine called 'Sight and Sound: The 100 Greatest Films of All Time'. The list is compiled from the votes of academics, insiders, critics, and - as a novelty - even directors. There is one for critics and one specifically for directors and the twain often do not meet. But this year, it seems like they are screaming at each other over the holiday meal without letting the other side get in a single word.
