Archaeologists Discover Perfectly Preserved 2000-Year-Old Roman Ship, 20 Other Shipwrecks in Black Sea Off Bulgaria’s Coast
Preliminary photogrammetric model of Black Sea MAP’s final discovery of 2017. A Roman ship lying in over 2000m of water. Its mast still stands, both quarter rudders with their tillers are still attached and the yards lie on deck where they fell.

Reading From Home
Hi all! So as you probably remember at the start of this year I pledged to take part in the #readingfromhome challenge organised by @theaspenreader and @schoolenthusiast. I made a list of 24 books on my physical TBR list and promised not to buy any more books. It’s now time for a check-in!
Winter by Ali Smith
Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi
The Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb
The Watchmaker of Filigree Street by Natasha Pulley
The Pearl Thief by Elizabeth Wein
On Beauty by Zadie Smith
No Filter by Orlagh Collins
Rubicon by Tom Holland
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara
Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry by Mildred D Taylor
The Sport of Kings by CE Morgan
The Silk Roads by Peter Frankopan
Harry Potter: A History of Magic by The British Library
The Children’s Book by AS Byatt
Atonement by Ian McEwan
Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden
Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami
Room by Emma Donoghue
Perfume by Patrick Suskind
Inheritance by Christopher Paolini
Gilead by Marilynne Robinson
Do Not Say We Have Nothing by Madeleine Thien
Artemis by Andy Weir
Burnt Shadows by Kamila Shamsie
I’ve been doing quite well with my book buying ban in that I have only broken it twice in six months (both books were for my podcast) but I did buy a book in Oxford last weekend but I would like to point out that I was ON HOLIDAY and HOLIDAY BOOK BUYING DOESN’T COUNT!
This has been such a good challenge and I’m hoping by the end of the year to have read all of these 24 books! It has also been a blessing for my local library as when I’m not ‘in the mood’ so any of these books I have been reading library books!
If you’re on a book-buying ban tell me how it’s going!

I would like to thank @leaalda for making these amazing banners.
This is an effort to spread the word about all fan fiction writers in our little fandom. If you would like to be featured or nominate a writer, please contact me. Please reblog this post if you can and check out some of @stillscape work!
1. First things first, if someone wanted to read your stories where can they find them.
All my Riverdale fics are here, on Ao3.
2. Tell us a little about yourself.
I’m on the far side of 30 and I’ve had the same tumblr avatar since 2011. I gave up trying to pretend to be cool in my junior year of college, when I got drunk at a party and spent the rest of the evening yelling at people in iambic pentameter.
3. What do you never leave home without?
Just the usual boring stuff--wallet, keys, phone.
4. Are you an early bird or a night owl?
Kind of both, actually? Which is a problem, because I don’t do well on minimal sleep.
5. If you could live in any fictional world which one would you choose and why?
I suppose Harry Potter, but only because I can’t think of a better answer.
6. Who is the most famous person you’ve ever met?
Anthony Hopkins?
7. What are some of your favorite movies/TV?
Oh my god, so many. TV: Parks and Rec, obviously. Recently: GLOW, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, GoT, Better Call Saul, Fargo, BoJack Horseman...I watch a lot of TV.
8. What are some of your favorite bands/musicians?
I don’t keep up, honestly. My iPod is perpetually full of late ‘60s/early ‘70s rock.
9. Favorite Books?
AS Byatt, Persuasion; Michael Chabon, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay; Margaret Atwood, Atlas Grace; Hanya Yanagahira, The People in the Trees; this list could go on for pages and pages so I’ll wind it down with my favorites from the Classics Shelf, Pride and Prejudice and Anna Karenina
10. Favorite Food?
The one thing I’ll almost never turn down is sharp white Cheddar cheese, so we’ll go with that.
11. Biggest pet peeve?
Noisy eaters.
12. What did you want to be when you were little? What do you want to be now?
I wanted to be either Pablo Picasso or an astronaut. Neither of those quite worked out.
13. What are your biggest fears? Do you have any strange fears?
I don’t think I have any strange fears. I’m averse to very large spiders and creepy deep sea creatures, but I’m not exactly afraid of either. I would just prefer to not look at them or be near them.
14. When you are on your deathbed what would be the one thing you’d regret not doing?
I do hope I’ve published a book by the time I die.
Okay… let’s talk about your writing!
15. Which is your favorite of the fics you've written for the Bughead fandom?
I haven’t written all that many, but I’ll say all the roads we have to walk.
16. Which was the hardest to write, in terms of plot?
Same answer. It’s really the only one that has a (long) plot, though.
17. How do you come up with the ideas for your fic(s)? Do you people watch? Listen to music? Get inspired by TV/movies?
They usually just arrive in my brain. all the roads came from my desire to read a fic of Jughead also being at Betty’s internship, and I couldn’t find one, so I started writing it--but before I got to the starting point of that one, I wanted a detailed prequel that I couldn’t find, so I wrote that too.
18. Idea that you always wanted to write but could never make work?
I’ve been able to make most of my ideas work eventually. It just takes time and effort.
19. Least favorite plot point/chapter/moment you’ve written?
Hmm. There are a few moments I wish I’d written a little differently, but more in the sense that I didn’t choose the right words. I’m sticking by all the plot points I’ve written.
20. Favorite plot point/chapter/moment you’ve written?
For Riverdale, I think it’s the New Year’s Eve video call at the end of chapter 3 of for the life of me.
21.Favorite character to write?
All-time, it’s probably Ben Wyatt. But for this fandom, I enjoy Betty and Jughead equally. I feel like my favorite other character to write is Veronica, but I’ve barely written any Veronica--so Cheryl, maybe? Jughead’s mom has been a fun exercise, but since we haven’t actually seen her on the show, she feels almost like an OC to me.
22. Favorite line or lines of dialogue that you've written?
This is my favorite passage, I think, which is from Chapter 4 of for the life of me:
One day towards the end of January, as they stand up to leave the cafeteria after lunch, Betty Cooper fixes her eyes on him, squints, and tilts her head.
“Mustard?” he asks. He resists swiping at his face only because he’s holding a plastic tray of flabbergasting detritus.
(He hasn’t eaten anything with mustard on it.)
“No.”
“Then what?”
(Ketchup, crumbs, giant hole in his shirt, he’s bleeding profusely from an unknown orifice, he’s developed a second head?)
“I think you got taller,” she says, thoughtfully.
Huh.
“What, like since we sat down?”
Betty makes the noise he’s noticed her making a lot lately. It’s a little laugh that’s somewhere between a snort and a chuckle but is definitely neither one of those things, and he cannot figure out a single word to describe it.
“See you in English, Jug.”
She’s right, he realizes later. He’s only about two inches shorter than Archie now, instead of four.
And that’s all it is in the end. He’s not a black hole collapsing in on himself while consuming every object within his gravitational pull. He’s just having one cosmic-joke-level inconveniently timed growth spurt.
(Which Betty Cooper noticed before he did.)
But my favorite single line is this, from Kevin trying to convince Betty to buy a more adventurous wardrobe: “Fine.” He throws up his hands. “Be that way. Keep dressing like a permanent tribute to the 2012 J. Crew Easter collection.”
23. Best comment/review you’ve ever received?
I always appreciate when people say something I’ve written has personally resonated with them, or given them all the feels, that kind of thing. I also love when someone points out a subtle detail that I wasn’t sure anyone was going to notice, since I generally try to live by the show-don’t-tell rule of storytelling. Or “I just found this and stayed up all night to binge the whole thing.”
24. How do you handle bad reviews or comments?
I don’t know that I’ve ever really gotten any. Sometimes I’ll get a comment and I can’t tell whether the author actually liked what I wrote, to which I usually just thank them for reading.
25. If you could change anything in any of your stories, what would it be?
Listen, literally every time I read anything over, I find at least three sentences I could have written better.
26. What is your favorite story you’ve ever written? Any fandom?
Well, this is going to make me sound like a crazy person, but I once wrote a fairly epic one-shot RPF of the Parks and Rec fandom pulling off a jewel heist. It had about 30 people/characters (because Andy Dwyer and a few characters from VEEP also showed up), and it was completely insane, and I don’t think I’ll ever hit that level of magic again.
27. What are you reading right now? Both fan fiction and general fiction?
General fiction: I just started Octavia Butler’s Seed novels. Fan fiction: I’m living for @lessoleilscouchants’ (my youth ain’t) tangled up in bad decisions, @onceuponamirror’s Heart Rise Above, @christah88’s Don’t Drink the (Maple) Water, and @cooperjones2020 Second City (as of this writing, I’m behind on reviewing those last three! I promise I will once I finish my chapter draft!)
28. Do you have an advice for writers that want to get into this fandom but might be scared?
Just do it! But before you do it, do your very very best to have your spelling, grammar, and formatting tip-top, because getting those things wrong are often turnoffs for readers.
If you’re nervous about posting or getting constructive criticism, ask someone to beta for you. Most writers, me included, are honored to be asked to beta and will do it when we have the time.
Be involved in the fandom. Leave comments on other people’s stories. Leave friendly messages in other people’s tumblr inboxes! Write meta commentary for scenes or characters and post that.

Documentary for Social Change
Documentaries are designed to present the 'truth', however in the filmmaking process, there are many people all with their own opinions and feelings towards the material in the film. It's very difficult to be unbiased and objective when creating a documentary, they should be rely on fact or have a basis from fact. Otherwise can it be exhibited to the audience as 'true'?
Some theorists believe documentaries can only be effective if there is no bias and it is created with an objective mindset. Others believe that subjectivity is useful and required for an effective documentary.
Cinema Verité is the method of filming that takes what is being seen and it is filmed without plan or script. What is being seen should be seen by the audience. However some disagree and say that its difficult to say whether the audience is not being shown some information. Dziga Vertov's ‘Man with a Movie Camera' (1929) is a fine example of Cinema Verité as we watch Vertov in the midst of production, filming whatever happens to be around. Giving a beautifully indepth and poetic view of Russia at that time.
John Grierson was the first to use 'documentary' as a term. He was affected and influenced very much by Sergei Eisenstein's 'Battleship Potemkin' (1925). His notion of documentary was rather dated and followed the traditional expository mode quite a bit, he understood that documentary had great persuasive power. He directed the film 'Drifters' (1929) which although presents an intense view of fishing, it is still rather boring to watch.
Bill Nichols wrote of six modes of documentary:
Expository - gives facts and shows images with commentary presented by a 'voice of God' to develop those images. Usually includes talking heads. Oftentimes, social propaganda uses found footage.
'Deep Blue' (2003) - Alistair Fothergill and Andy Byatt.
‘An Inconvenient Truth’ (2006) - Davis Guggenheim
Performative - recreates an event or possible future event. Other, the filmmaker incorporates themselves into the situation. Using empathy to gain an audience reaction.
'Touching the Void' (2003) - Kevin MacDonald.
‘127 Hours’ (2010) - Danny Boyle
Poetic - explores the use of editing images and shots together that link through their tone, style and evoked emotion. More abstract a notion of documentary to present an idea. Presents feelings instead of truth.
'Night and Fog / Nuit et Broulliard' (1946) - Alain Resnais
‘Koyaanisqatsi’ (1982) - Godfrey Reggio
Reflexive - meta-documentary that focuses on the subject alongside the filmmaker and the process of documentary-making, includes a view from the eyes of the director.
‘Juvenile Liaison’ (1976) - Nick Broomfield
'Stories we Tell' (2012) - Sarah Polley
Observational - ‘fly on the wall’ style of documentary, leaves the viewer to make their own conclusions of the events and things they see.
'Lift' (2001) - Marc Issacs
‘Hospital’ (1970) - Frederick Wiseman
Participatory - subject of the documentary interacts with the filmmaker, the filmmaker orchestrates this.
‘My Scientology Movie’ (2015) - Louis Theroux
‘Super Size Me’ (2004) - Morgan Spurlock
'Waltz with Bashir' (2008) by Ari Folman is an example of a documentary that is relevance from multiple modes. (Expository, Poetic, Participatory, Performative) although it is animated for the most part. It uses this to portray elements of the film that are more dreamlike and surreal, it plays out like a cinematic film, yet its message it quite clearly to find and place blame on the Christian Phalangists in the Sabra and Shatila Massacre of 1982.
Chelsea Lupkin states that documentary is more effective than written documents. Film can dictate human emotion and details suffering more so than words can manage.
Here are some characteristics of documentary and some of the conventions and techniques utilised in many documentary films:
- Using stock / found / archival footage
- ‘Talking Heads’ interviews shot from the mid-section up
- ‘Voice of God’ a narrator who explains certain elements of what is being seen or how to analyse what is on screen.
- Timelapses
- Dramatizations of certain events, can be ones that have happened or theorised to happen in future.
- Exposition
- Montage sequences
- Graphics or ‘wallpaper technique’ are visuals that are included alongside narration when filming cannot be done to portray an abstract concept, idea or theory.

Cryin’
Did I get your attention with my Aerosmith-based title? I hope so. Yesterday, I finished Octavia Butler’s novel ‘The Parable of the Talents’ and it was so affecting and powerful that I cried and cried over its joys and sorrows.

As many of you already know, @theaspenreader and @schoolenthusiast have created a wonderful reading challenge for 2018 called A Year of #readingfromhome, the objective of which is to read books you already own in order to get your unmanageable physical TBR pile in control and to reduce the amount of money spent on books.
So I’d just quickly like to thank @inhalingwords for making such a great summary. And now I’m gonna make a brief list of the books I’m going to be tackling:
