NYSEA‘s second annual Long Beach Skate Jam for Street & Bowl was a blast! With 80+ registered contestants, it was competitive and exciting. On a hot Sunday by the bay, the kids’ street contest kicked off with 9 heats. Everyone was impressively talented, and the winners were awarded trophies and prizes from several sponsors. Congrats to Tim Drake for first place, Oscar Johnson in close second and Jake Pellicane taking third.

After another warm-up session, the adult street contest started soon after with some heavy heats! Everyone was crushing it and getting hyped off each other. After a tough judges meeting the winners were announced- awarding Tyler Collins in first, Nico Ramos for second and TJ Higgins wrapping up the podium. Special shout out to NYC local Brandon Johnson winning Best Trick!

The contest was held at the new skatepark in Long Beach, completed in 2015 by Spohn Ranch Skateparks. Located only a few blocks from the LIRR station, the park was flooded with skaters and spectators. There were complimentary snacks and swag from Essential Water, Clif Bars, La Colombe Coffee, Honest Tea and YETI coolers. TETON Gravity Research rolled up with their epic party trailer and media patio, which included a dope rooftop for judges to see all the action from above!

During golden hour the anticipated bowl contest begun. With a race against the setting sun the heats were rapid and intense. The bowl is an amoeba shape, with pockets and walls ranging from 3-7 feet- Contestants were blasting huge airs and getting pretty tech. Judging the contest wasn’t easy, everyone was on fire! Tyler Collins took first place, Nick McDonough in second and Charlie Weiss in third. Special shoutout to Tom Mullens for crushing it all damn day.

2021 reading list

2021 是生命中艱難的一年，人生過半，苦澀日多。上半年基本上圖於奔命，一本書都沒讀，下半年也是跌跌撞撞，沒有什麼心思。

我今年讀書很功利，我想休息，想放鬆，想娛樂，想安慰在逆境中的自己，想不讓自己發瘋，我貪婪地想多點智慧，想看清楚面前的路和周圍的事，想知道到底什麼是該考慮的事，想知道如何做下一個選擇，想知道如何從容地面對下一個苦難。

2021年，我決定不再染髮。包袱一個一個地丟掉，丟掉。

一日不讀書便面目可憎，我已經可憎了快一年了。醒醒吧，自己給自己一巴掌。

Books re-read:

- Manage Your Day-to-Day: Build Your Routine, Find Your Focus, and Sharpen Your Creative Mind

by Jocelyn K. Glei (Editor), Scott Belsky (Forward)

每次重讀都可以起到提醒和激勵自己的作用。也許是因為裏面很多tips都是寫給作家的。

- Fractured Lands: How the Arab World Came Apart

by Scott Anderson

中東的歷史我向來模糊，看了幾本書以後還是會忘記。多了解一些是有必要的。很傷心的歷史。

- A Room with a View

by E.M. Forster

隔上幾年就想重新看看這小說，喜歡這部小說主要是因為它的語言，還有喜歡改編自它的電影。

- The Hero With a Thousand Faces

by Joseph Campbell

一本偉著。中文譯為《千面英雄》。裏面好的句子太多了。今年看主要是為了激勵自己。

Novel:

Possession: A Romance

by A.S. Byatt

一個很文藝的交錯時空的愛情故事。看過後印象最深的卻是作者的序，這書寫在她最低潮的人生階段，卻成就了她最好的一本書。這對我算是一個激勵吧。

Station Eleven

by Emily St. John Mandel

二流科幻小說。隨便看看。

The Beach House

(Beach House #1)

by Mary Alice Monroe

和加拿大的大名鼎鼎的Monroe名字只差一點的美國Monroe，不得不說這個愛情小說還是可以的，沒有局限在愛情，著墨更多的是南方傳統女性在家庭中承受的苦難，母女之間複雜的親情。算是通俗小說裡的佳作。

The Sirens of Titan

by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

Slaughterhouse-Five

by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

兩本Vonnegut的小說，一本寫於早期，一本是他的成熟代表作。第一部光怪陸離，第二部沉重，都自帶著作者特有的神經質和自嘲，兩本我都很喜歡。

Billy Summers

by Stephen King

每年我都會看一兩本King的新書。就像吃一下老朋友做的新菜，菜好不好吃無所謂，如果好吃當然更好，做得一般的話，也當是敘舊了。

A Gift of Time

by Jerry Merritt

穿越回去，又去到未來的科幻小說。為了改變自己妹妹被殺的悲慘命運，男主和機器人女主回到童年，重寫了自己的家族史。第一次失敗，第二次成功。接著又去到未來，做出了人性的選擇。算是一部及格的通俗小說。

The Original

by Brandon Sanderson

一部中篇科幻小說。女主角的複製品醒來，腦子裡只有被組織裝上的失去丈夫的記憶，為了報仇去殺兇手，結果發現兇手就是她本人。到底哪個算是原版，哪個又是代表正義呢？故事還行，節奏也還行吧，一天讀完，娛樂而已。

Feminism:

Betraying Big Brother: The Feminist Awakening in China

by Leta Hong Fincher

Fincher認為，女權運動有著顛覆這個暴政的潛力。想想女人佔一半的人口，要是都覺醒，而且權益涉及社會的每一個基本層面，滴水穿石啊。那這個觀點可以說是對的。

可惜女人不會都覺醒，尤其是中國。君不見這幾天網上還有相當一部分知識女性在迎合著酸臭老男人們維護王力宏呢！

Feminism is for Everybody: Passionate Politics

by bell hooks

多好的書啊。看完了怎麼能不同意呢？可惜對女權早已持有偏見的人不會看。

不過還是有希望的吧，像我自己，不也是慢慢地覺醒的嗎？沒人天生就討論權利和正義，否則啟蒙做什麼？慢慢來吧。

A Room of One's Own

by Virginia Woolf

看一次哭一次。

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings

(Maya Angelou's Autobiography #1)

by Maya Angelou

一個黑人傑出女性自傳的第一部，講她出生至十七八歲的故事。50年代的美國社會，黑人女性處在社會階層的最底端，太過心酸的童年和青少年。

Politics and History:

China Unbound: A New World Disorder

by Joanna Chiu

加拿大女記者在中國生活的幾年的所見所想。中西關係日益緊張，這類由了解中國的，懂中文的，在中國住過的英文記者寫的書終於越來越多了。西方世界雖然反應慢些，但總算睜開眼睛了，來吧，看看真正的中國。

How Propaganda Works

by Jason F. Stanley

很學術的分析政治宣傳如何運作的書，非常不錯。可惜太學術，大部分人不想看。

Espionage and Covert Operations: A Global History

by Vejas Gabriel Liulevicius

世界間諜歷史。你間諜我，我間諜你。人心太複雜，為了搞明白對方真正想什麼，花費了太多太多的資源和腦細胞。

The Origins of Totalitarianism

by Hannah Arendt

非常有名的一本書。大部分人對猶太人其實仍持有非常粗淺的認識和刻板的印象，尤其是中國人。要是看看這本書，會少放一點黃腔吧。

另，幾十年過去了，另一個極權主義正在崛起，對於這個時代的大眾，此書仍然具有相當的啟發和警示的作用。真想對網上一幫傻子說，少做點傻逼視頻，多看點書，睜大你的狗眼，少說些日後會後悔的話，少做點丟人的事兒吧！

The Reporter Who Knew Too Much: The Mysterious Death of What's My Line TV Star and Media Icon Dorothy Kilgallen

by Mark Shaw

非常有意思的一本書。有幸認識了一個傑出的女性。看完對肯尼迪遇刺有了新的認識，也再也不想聽Frank Sanatra唱歌了。

Others:

The Art of Being

by Erich Fromm

Fromm所有的書我都喜歡。

The Power of Vulnerability: Teachings of Authenticity, Connections and Courage

by Brené Brown

承認自己的軟弱，本應和承認自己餓了是一樣平常的事。是我們把自己看的太重了。

The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure

by Jonathan Haidt, Greg Lukianoff

Haidt的書看了好幾本了，他的立場是中間的，他感興趣的是什麼決定了人們選擇站邊，立場到底是怎麼來的，為什麼又那麼難改變。

Me & Other Writing

by Marguerite Duras

Duras是個非常有才華，有個性的智慧的女人。希望我老了也有這份從容。

雨

by Ng Kim Chew, 黃錦樹

今年看的唯一一本中文書。嚴格意義上說，是另一種中文，仿佛進了一個中文的試驗室。走進了濕噠噠的碎片一樣的熱帶雨林。

Tree: A Life Story

by David Suzuki, Wayne Grady, Peter Wohlleben (Foreword)

對於樹，這些年的研究越來越多，大家了解得越多，越驚訝大自然的能力。但我更喜歡之前讀的瑞典的那個森林管理員寫的那本。

Aspects of the Novel

by E.M. Forster

看了就能解碼寫小說的秘訣嗎？大錯特錯了。也許對評論家更有用。但是對於寫的人而言，技術固然非常重要，但也只是工具而已。我想最關鍵的還是見識和胸懷，這個沒人教得了你，自己的刀，還是得自己磨。

Significance

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) discoveries about educational attainment have raised questions about the meaning of the genetics of success. These discoveries could offer clues about biological mechanisms or, because children inherit genetics and social class from parents, education-linked genetics could be spurious correlates of socially transmitted advantages. To distinguish between these hypotheses, we studied social mobility in five cohorts from three countries. We found that people with more education-linked genetics were more successful compared with parents and siblings. We also found mothers’ education-linked genetics predicted their children’s attainment over and above the children’s own genetics, indicating an environmentally mediated genetic effect. Findings reject pure social-transmission explanations of education GWAS discoveries. Instead, genetics influences attainment directly through social mobility and indirectly through family environments.

Unisex releases new single 'Let the Tide Take You'

The songwriters and producers of indie rock music known as Unisex have released their latest official single, “Let the Tide Take You.” It is the debut single from their upcoming debut album, “Powerful Situations,” due for release 23 April 2021. It has been proudly published as an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music industry on the Campers' Rule Records label. Described variously as indie rock, jangle pop, indie pop, tropical and psychedelic or art rock, music on “Powerful Situations” such as “Let the Tide Take You” will appeal fans of independent rock everywhere.

Unisex cite as main artistic influences a colorful amalgam of rock across the last six decades. These include Talking Heads, CAN, Beach Boys, Richard Swift, Jason Molina, Eliot Smith, Camera Obscura, Nina Simone, the Sea and Cake, Yo La Tengo, Built to Spill, The Byrds, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Santigold, Thundercat, and Alice Coltrane. Informed by the qualities and stylistic nuances of all the above, “Let the Tide Take You” by Unisex has something for fans of many music categories.

A second single from their “Powerful Situations” LP, “Fake Banksy,” is scheduled to appear 6 April.

Unisex are Brian Russ (guitar, vocals), Brad Connolley (bass, drums, vocals), Billy Fidler (drums), and Connor Zarkowski (keys, bass). Also appearing on their record are Amos Rose (keys), Meredith Meyer (vocals), and Daniel Belski (guitar). A musical statement of our time, Unisex music was already being composed, performed and recorded online by 2018. By the time COVID-19 forced every US act into virtual space, Unisex had already compiled much of what would become their debut LP, “Powerful Situations.” The record is among the first to have been entirely incepted from four disparate American locales, namely Brooklyn, NY; Nashville, TN; Los Angeles, CA; and Missoula, MT.

Asked to describe the overall theme of “Let the Tide Take You,” Unisex writes that it suggests “simply giving up and giving in, knowing that consumerism and capitalism will one day consume us all.” Other tracks on the LP are even more sociopolitical, such as “Address to United Nations” about ex-President Donald Trump spreading nationalism and threatening nuclear war at the 2016 UN Summit. It also refers to the Parkland shooting, the spreading of diseases on NYC subways (prophetically penned before the pandemic), the culture of fake news, fake tans, and botox treatments.

“The paranoid feeling we now live with,” Unisex write, “of always needing to be ready to be attacked, the death of young artists before their prime, why some people hate their mothers, why so many useless plastic products get shipped around the globe on those menacing massive cargo boats, the gathering of white supremicist groups and the rise of hate crimes in the Trump era ... These are all themes on our debut record.”

Ultimately, Unisex's upcoming debut LP blatantly claims, “Everybody is full of sh-t.”

“Overall, it's a gas!” they write.

Unisex's own official website describes “Powerful Situations” as “written as an initial reaction to the Trump presidency” which “molded itself, magically, into a response to the pandemic. It was worked on both pre and post covid. But Brian Russ knew in his heart that it needed to be completed before the 2020 election. Now it lives as a stamp in time, reminding us of what we went through for four years, and begging us to learn and grow for all that we have survived through.”

“We're tiny little specks on this tiny little stone,” writes Russ, quoting the song dedicated to his four-year-old daughter, Bernadette. “People sometimes forget that we share this little home.”

The members of Unisex are all established musicians who have toured around the country with previous acts and played on stages ranging from Red Rocks Ampitheatre to the Bowery Ballroom and Brooklyn Steel.

“Let the Tide Take You” by Unisex is available from Campers' Rule Records at over 500 quality digital music stores online worldwide now. Get in early, indie music fans.

Do you remember "Truth in advertising"? This series is kicking that off its inside-joke throne with style. An updated look at the world of making commercials, warts and all.

Community Films’ directorial collective JEAN and director Pam Thomas have joined forces to create “Commercials”, a comedic web series about the humorous, ego crushing, overanalyzed silliness that plagues the world of commercial film making and everyone involved.

“As Commercial directors and former advertising creatives, we’ve experienced hundreds of completely ridiculous moments during productions where we looked at each other and said, ‘this needs to be a show,’” says Natalie Prisco of JEAN.

Seizing on the seemingly important, but altogether ridiculous scenarios that inherently go along with making commercials, “Commercials” peels back the curtain on an industry that everyone is familiar with, but very few know much about.

“The world of commercial making is such a unique industry that feels so ripe for satire,” says Eric Eckelman of JEAN

Told from the unique point of view of an eccentric group of egomaniacal, yet wildly insecure commercial directors and their production company, Bird Films, “Commercials” satirizes the world of production as The Office did the world of 9-5ers.

Each episode gives a glimpse into the various aspects of commercial making and stages of production, leaving nobody unskewered in the process.

“We’d love Commercials to give viewers a sneak peek into what we love so much about our business and hope they find it as hilarious and fun as we do,” says Pam Thomas.

“We’re thrilled we finally decided to make that show,” adds Armand Prisco of Jean.

Episode 101: ‘ETHNICALLY AMBIGUOUS’

Nate, Maggie and the agency team try to figure out how to navigate an unexpected client request. This one feels as real as it gets, this happens. A lot.

This video is currently being processed. Please wait.

Episode 102: ‘REALLY GREAT MEETING’

Nate and Jay may or may not have totally nailed their Snackyz presentation. Or maybe not. Maybe.

This video is currently being processed. Please wait.

Episode 103: ‘MANTRUM’

TRUE STORY - the last time I heard a story about a director locked in a car delaying the shoot, he was also eating bowls of cereal in there. Nate uses the oldest trick in the book to lure the out of his mind director Axel Roundhouse back to set.

This video is currently being processed. Please wait.

Episode 104: ‘FULL CLOCKS’

Directing team Tom and Dave learn the art of the full clock.

This video is currently being processed. Please wait.

Episode 105: ‘GUYS AND DOLLS’

A seemingly mundane Pre-Production meeting goes off the rails.

This video is currently being processed. Please wait.

About JEAN

JEAN, pronounced like the pants that are made of denim, is comprised of Eric Eckelman, Armand Prisco and Natalie Prisco. Known for their comedy chops, and pulling believably odd performances out of their actors, they have created comedy-driven work for Lifetime, Delta, Pizza Hut, AT&T, Honda, TBS and Visa. Armand & Nat got their start working as a creative team at McCann before they went over to write and direct for MTV. There, they met Eric who was also a writer and director for the acclaimed network.

About Pam Thomas

Pam Thomas began her career at MTV, back when it was cool, in the late 1980s, writing and directing promos in the On-Air Promotions Department. Pam has worked with dozens of brands and agencies to produce a huge body of work, including spots for Gatorade, Nike, Visa, AMEX, Payless, Lexus, Wal-Mart, Dove, Verizon, Cheerios, Pantene and Cotton featuring celebrities Zooey Deschanel, Kate Bosworth, Emmy Rossum, and Hayden Panetierre. Pam’s style of work portrays an essence of glamour, fashion and creativity. Her sense of humor and knack for getting great performances, is evident in her TV work on Sex and the City and Desperate Housewives and more recently on the Netflix series Atypical with Jennifer Jason Leigh and Michael Rappaport.
