ABUK a favorite of Keith Wakelam

Abuk  Dinka Goddess of water & gardens. Abuk and husband
Garang were the first people in the mythology of the Dinka people of Sudan.
The Creator allowed them to each plant one seed of grain each day, and this
was enough to satisfy their needs. One day Abuk grew greedy, and
while she was planting more grain, she accidentally struck the Creator on
the toe. He was so angry that he withdrew from the earth. Since
that time, Abuk has had responsibility for all growing things & the water

they need.

The notion of microbudget projects recruiting cast and crew via social networks is an oft-discussed topic.

Open discussions

                    Filmaking is and art

                               Filmaking is a filmaking industry

                                          What the size of the budget is

                                                 The filmaking industry tegularly makes deals .

 

 Various social networks have different approaches to the notion that some of these microbudget projects may be exploitative but many are in fact genuine.  Do we understand that we are not going to get paid but that we may yet benefit in other ways (showreel material, general experience on a film set etc) ?. May I suggest that Talent Circle consider adopting the following strategy apropos unpaid work:

 That unpaid work for microbudget projects can only be included in this social network so long as the project is fully insured and that any and all cast members be allowed access to the footage that they were in for inclusion in their showreel if they wish.

 The first point, insurance, is an obvious one. Anyone making any sort of film needs to have an understanding of the law regarding health and safety and no one should be shooting anything without adequate insurance. You can blag kit, negotiate location fees to nil, borrow editing facilities, get up at 4am to make a massive pasta dish to feed everyone on set, hell you can even edit on a laptop but you should Never, Ever Shoot Without Insurance!

  As for access to rushes, well, so long as the destination of these rushes is purely for the participant's showreel, then there is no earthly reason as to why any project that isn't paying its collaborators will refuse this simple request. It is the measure of the professional nature of the microbudget project as to how they answer both of these above requests and if they fail to comply to them both, then this should tell the applicant something very simple - that although this microbudget project may not have enough money to pay you, be advised that they clearly don't know what they are doing, not only regarding the extreme risk of shooting uninsured but also the lack of common courtesy of allowing access to the rushes for showreel use of those volunteering their time, talent and energies in helping this microbudget achieve its aims.  If you do take part in a microbudget project, then use e a link to a form from Holden Log .

athame

The athame: (aa'-tha-may; uh-thaym'; or n. A magickal tool: Ceremonial double-edged knife or dagger, used in Wicca and other related neopagan rituals - often sporting a black handle inscribed with symbols dictated by the Tradition or hierophant, and often used to direct energy for the casting of a protective Circle and defining sacred space, among many other things. The athame is projective masculine (contrast the chalice's receptive feminine.)
[ orig. from Latin artavus "quill knife", attested to by the oldest manuscripts of the Key of Solomon. Later corrupted to: artavo, artavus, arthana, artanus, arthany or arthame. Possibly derived from arto, artas, etc. "to narrow".  Idries Shah, personal secretary and close friend of Gerald Gardner, provides an alternate etymology from an alleged Arabic al-dhammé "blood letter", which was said to be the ritual knife of a medieval magical cult of Morocco & Andalusia. Robert Graves  suggests an Arabic term from al thame (or adh-dhame), which he translates as "the arrow".

paten

paten (or, patin): (pat'-n) n. A plate of gold or silver (also other metal, wood or ceramic) and often containing a centered pentacle or other sacred symbol, and  placed upon or even part of the altar and is mostly used to place ritual tools on for consecration, blessings, etc. Additionally a focal point for concentration.
Middle English, from Old French patene, from Medieval Latin patina, & Latin pan, from Greek patanè, "platter".

SWEET AND SOUR WUXI RIBS

Serves 2 to share
Prep time: 5 minutes
cook in: 10 minutes (plus marinating)

 

The traditional way of preparing these ribs is to slow-braise them in stock, then add the sauce and thicken with blended cornflour. However, for a quicker dish and richer flavour I have shallow-fried the ribs.

 

INGREDIENTS:
600g/1lb 5oz pork ribs, chopped into 3 - 4cm/1¼ - 1½ inch lengths
groundnut oil for shallow-frying
sea salt and ground white pepper
1 spring onion, sliced, to garnish

 

For the marinade:
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons yellow bean sauce
1 tablespoon Shaohsing rice wine or dry sherry

 

For the sweet and sour sauce:
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons Chinkiang black rice vinegar or balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon runny honey

 

METHOD:

1. Put all the ingredients for the marinade into a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the pork ribs and turn to coat, then cover the bowl and leave to marinate for at least 20 minutes, or as long as possible, in the fridge.
2. Heat a wok over a high heat. Fill the wok to a quarter of its depth with groundnut oil and heat the oil to 180ºC/350ºF or until a cube of bread dropped in turns golden brown in 15 seconds. Using a spider, carefully add the ribs and shallow-fry until browned.

3. Meanwhile, put all the ingredients for the sweet and sour sauce into a small bowl and stir to combine.

4. Lift the ribs out of the wok with the spider and drain on absorbent kitchen paper. Drain the wok of oil and wipe it clean, then reheat over a high heat.

5. Add the ribs and sauce mixture to the wok and cook on a low-medium heat for 5-6 minutes until the sauce has reduced to a sticky and thicker consistency. Season further to taste with salt and white pepper, garnish with the spring onion and serve immediately.

 

 

STEAMED JASMINE RICE
Serves 4

 

INGREDIENTS:
350g jasmine rice, washed until the water runs clear
600ml water

 

METHOD:
Place the rice in a heavy-based saucepan and add the water. Bring to the boil and cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to a low heat. Cook for 15-20 min. Fluff up the rice grains with a fork and serve.

 

 

Augury
