I just watched the new documentary titled, ‘INTRODUCING, SELMA BLAIR’. I cannot recommend this film enough. It’s so moving. The film is a beautiful testimonial on one person’s (actress Selma Blair) struggle with Multiple Sclerosis.

WASHINGTON - U.S. consumer spending surged in August, but outlays adjusted for inflation were weaker than initially thought in the prior month, reinforcing expectations that economic growth slowed in the third quarter as COVID-19 infections flared up.
The report from the Commerce Department, which showed inflation remaining hot in August, raised the risk of consumer spending stalling in the third quarter, even if spending accelerates further in September. Inflation-adjusted, or the so-called real consumer spending is what goes into the calculation of gross domestic product.
Goods spending fell 2.1% in July. Spending on services rose 0.6% in August, supported by housing, utilities and health care. Services, which account for the bulk of consumer spending, increased 1.1% in July. Spending is shifting back to services from goods, but the resurgence in coronavirus cases, driven by the Delta variant, crimped demand for air travel, hotel accommodation and sales at restaurants and bars. A survey from the Institute for Supply Management on Friday showed manufacturers experienced longer delays getting raw materials delivered to factories and paid higher prices for inputs in September.
Stocks on Wall Street were higher. The dollar fell against a basket of currencies. U.S. Treasury prices were mixed.

Legendary artist Ken Jacobs was born on May 25, 1933 in Brooklyn, New York and is an American experimental filmmaker. He is the director of Tom, Tom, the Piper's Son (1969, USA), which was admitted to the National Film Registry in 2007. His Star Spangled to Death (2004, USA) is a nearly seven-hour film consisting largely of found footage. Jacobs taught at the Cinema Department at Harpur College at Binghamton University from 1969 to 2002. His son Azazel Jacobs is also a filmmaker. The style of Jacobs is largely concentrated around the technique of "found footage" - the author works with a stranger in a kinomaterial, sometimes occasional, conceptualizing it on the mounting table. So not only "Star Spangled to Death" appeared, but also another cult film Jacobs "Tom Tom Son Dudocar." "Tom Tom" consists of a multifaceted and detailed analysis of the 1905 film, in which the timing tape increases with eight minutes to almost two hours. Committed in 1969 "Tom, Tom, The Piper's Son" is one of the first examples of deconstruction in the cinema.
In addition to assembly works, Jacobs was engaged in the production. The most famous game film Jacobs became the "Cobra Blonde", shot in the sign of 1963 with the participation of Jack Smith. In the same year, Jack Smith himself removed "Flaming Creatures", and Ron Rice - "Meet the Queen Shebia with an atomic man."
In the 90s, began working with John Zorn and experiment using a stroboscopic effect, digital video and 3D.
