*** Causing a stir:
Here’s the latest from Tom Clementson in Afghanistan.
Ned,
Brits just went out the day before the attack in Kabul to do a school supply drop. I just posted seven new photos from that event. On this particular mission they provided school supplies and had some benches delivered, purchased through funds raised here on base. Very good day though they had to cut the visit short for obvious security reasons.
At the moment we are in a pause mode while we sort out establishing a more efficient program as our Brits prepare to depart. Hopefully we'll be able to restart full tilt in the coming days and weeks.
Many thanks for your continued support and thanks very much for the package of notebooks. They were among the supplies we provided to the kids.

*** From Phillip Raskin:
Hi Ned — hope you've been well. We're overdue a catch-up, but in the meantime, thought I'd forward some jobs for the sports optimist (no, not fans of the Dan Snyders or even my beloved-but-eternally-average Dolphins) — no, I mean for people who think the NBA season will start on time. Seems the Milwaukee Bucks are hiring a new PR department, so might be fun to bring a few friends. And just a suggestion — give Kareem (Lew) a statue there too, okay?
Anyway, will keep fingers crossed that the NBA has realized that now that the
NFL has gotten underway, they need to likewise get their act together. Take
care and talk soon.

*** From Bridget Serchak, who got it from Greg Presto:
Parsonage Productions is seeking a paid intern for 10 weeks in the fall/winter. We work on video and digital media projects for major magazine brands such as Men's Health, Shape, and Prevention, as well as small businesses and startups. We're based in DC and Denver, but the candidate can be based pretty much anywhere (though we'd prefer a location where we can meet in person at some point during the internship–anywhere on the East Coast works).
The internship will be a great opportunity to learn as well as work–on video skills, web production, online storytelling and other visual media. A full description of the job is below. Please forward this along to any candidates you think would be interested.
Thanks!
Greg Presto
57.) Internship description, Parsonage Productions, company based in Washington, DC and Colorado but location flexible
Parsonage Productions– a boutique video and web production house serving major magazine brands such as Men's Health & Shape, as well as small businesses and start-ups– is hiring a Fall 2011 intern. The ideal candidate will have a strong editorial pedigree and writing skills, with basic video editing competency and general web-savvy (programming skills are a non-essential bonus).
We’re a “farm to table” shop: we get dirty producing and editing video, reporting and writing articles, but we also handle big picture tasks such as consulting on video/web/editorial strategy and business planning. This means the right candidate will be comfortable switching between a variety of tasks day-to-day, week-to-week.
Your duties could include (but are not limited to) research for articles/videos/business plans, video editing, reporting/writing, and videography/photography. This is a virtual position so you can be located wherever you’d like. We are based in Washington, DC and Colorado and while we travel frequently, would plan to meet our intern in person if possible. There is potential for on-location video work if you can travel on the East Coast.
What You Get: The position is flexible and can be attuned to the strengths and interests of the right person. We hope you bring some interesting skills to the table, but this is an internship and we hope that you'll learn from us: Adobe Creative Suite, Final Cut Pro, editorial planning, business planning, video journalism, assorted Web skills, networking. This is a paid position offering a weekly stipend determined by individual candidate’s experience. Workload will be 15-20 hours per week. Internship runs 10 weeks, ideally Sept. 20-Dec. 6.
Essential skills/attributes: Curiosity, creativity, hustle and an assertive nature
Skills that'd be nice, but we can teach: Avid/Adobe Premiere/Final Cut Pro. HTML/CSS. Photoshop. WordPress
Please send a note describing your interest and qualifications, questions about the position, plus resume and references, to justinpark@parsonageprod.com
