McMaster University Standardized Patient Program Booked: Shoots Dec 7th

This is arather unique opportunity to help the medical community.

Short training films will feature me in a variety of roles. I will be performing as a troubled parent in one, to abusive in another, and grieving in another and several others as well. There may be as many as 10-12 vignettes.

Physicians will be quizzed on what they view and assess the pros and cons of the atending professionals and how they may handle the situatiuon differently.

These training videos will have the healthcare professionals commenting in their respective classrooms on what they've seen. As these graduates and enter the workforce, the value from these role playing scenarios hopefully will prove to be invaluable.

Glad I am able to help through this project.

Heading to the Red Hot Poker Tour's TOC Dec 1st!!!

Tournament Of Champions (TOC) update:

After securing my 7th win of the season tonight, (my third online this season & this one for $197), I've climbed back into the top 10 in the national leaderboard standings.

My previous high has been 4 wins in each of the last 3 seasons, giving me 19 in my career. I am very close to the prestigoius 50,000 careers point plateau that only a handful of players have achieved to date. I'm well behind many of the regulars who play 90-100+ games per season, as I only get out about 50-60 times. I am happy with that. Each season lasts 4 months. This is my 4th one. It's the Red Hot Poker Tour's 9th.

For the curious check out: www.redhotpokertour.com

On Saturday Dec 1st in Montana's restaurant downtown Toronto, I'll be among 150 players vying foer the coveted Winner Take All, prize of a $10,000 seat into a Professional World Poker Tour event in Los Angeles in February. Love to get back there for several reasons. I am pummped, I am psyched. My game is in good shape. My mind and body are well and functioning in sync. My radar and observation skills are alert and I am good to go for this. I am motivated.

My prediction and expectaion is clearly, Victory.

Stay tuned for a followup.

OK so when you buy your next large screen TV, you will receive a DVD included that informs buyers of the process and information related to owning an HDTV, which essentially is just another big screen UNLESS you buy the Digital Box....yeah you guessed it....from Rogers!

The talking person on the DVD is yours truly.

FOX Searchlight--short film competition Entry

Hey all,

Just wrapped shooting a short for an independent film producer, (currently untitled) however it is about to be entered in to the Fox Searchlight Short Film competition.

3 specific elements are required including;

1/ the passing of a photograph,
2/ use of the phrase, "I demand an explanation for these shenanigans! What do you have to say?"
3/ a character facing a situation above his or her maturity level.

for more info check into this link: http://youtube.com/projectdirect

The figure head for this promotion via YouTube features Jason Reitman, Director of JUNO. If you haven't seen that film yet, you MUST. It's brilliant.

COLD BLOOD -- Update---Wrapped...phew!

An intense 4 days of long hours with tons of footage. Great crew, great cast, awesome Craft, wondeful wardrobe and marvellous makeup, all around a great experience (were it not for the fact I became violently ill and laid pretty low for 3 of the 4 days). Truly professional operation.

A one hour program, this #2 in a series of 10 episodes, was the story of Donnah Winger, murdered by her husband Mark, who framed and murdered a limo driver (Roger Harrington).

I played Detective Cox, who after 4 years finally was able to bring the truth to light with much persistent and diligent effort by his partner, Det Williamson. Justice was served, and Winger is now in prison serving life, and still in denial.

It is my understanding this series is airing in the UK in the new year. IF I get more info I will post it here and hopefully we can view the program on History, Bravo, Discovery or some such network.

Keep well.

HDTV Digital Box--Booked, shooting Nov 16th!!!

While on set, I rec'd a call confirming the details and we're good to go!

Nice.
