This group is designed to help actors gain valuable experience in front of a camera working closely with filmmakers. The idea behind this group is that Romantic Child Studios (An independent Canadian film production company), is always looking for acting talent for short and feature films. This meetup takes that idea one step further providing a practice space for both filmmakers and actors. For example, a writer or director may have a small scene that they want acted out to see how it looks on …

William Alan Shatner is 79 years old as of March 22, 2010, and has had a long wonderful career as an actor. But how many of his movies can you name outside of Star Trek and the cameo appearances?

Owning a restaurant today is tough. With all the challenges facing restaurants, you can have winning strategy and still close down the next month. Do restaurants only have to just scrape by? Or can they discover new ways to increase profitability -perhaps by reducing costs and marketing themselves better- to create record profits (even in this current economy)? We believe that any restaurant concept can survive the rough ride, provided the restaurateur gets the right process oriented informatio …

Bashar is a male member of a 5th dimensional civilization called the Essassani, a civilization based on unconditional love, ecstasy, fun, following your excitement, being totally non-judgemental, and giving validity and equality to the uniqueness of each individual in the society. I like Bashar to be so genuine! so true! so enthusiastic! - almost to the point of seeming cartoon-like! And yet he has an incredibly fast mind, an amazing wit, a loving heart, and of course a profound understanding of …
