He's (Been) Here! Why These High School Sweethearts Took 'Newborn' Photos with Their 21-Year-Old Son
That’s one big baby!
Rebecca Jensvold Hayes and David Ward recently partook in a unique photo shoot to belatedly announce the “birth” of their 21-year-old son, Clayton Jensvold. The pictures quickly vent viral, with confused commenters calling the images “creepy” or “weird.”
But for Hayes, Ward and Jensvold, the goofy pictures have a much deeper meaning.
The California couple dated in high school, but broke up before Hayes gave birth to Jensvold in December 1995.
The high school sweethearts went on to marry different people and lead separate lives — in fact, the only thing that kept them in touch over the years was their son.

Documentaries such as David Byars’ fascinating No Man’s Land have an important function going beyond the headlines, memes, and talking points that prove to be difficult to make sense of in the moment. The film gets to the heart of the 41-day occupation of Harney County, Oregon’s Malheur Wildlife Refuge by militants led by Ammon Bundy. The son of right-wing hero Cliven Bundy, he makes a compelling argument at times and one that should be heard in front of Congress. The tactics, however, are a form of domestic terrorism. The protest is against the politics of the Bureau of Land Management (which unfortunately, and confusingly, shares an acronym with Black Lives Matter) which prohibit grazing on public lands, starving independent ranches and making American ranchers less competitive than their international competitors. They argue in favor of liberating federally protected lands in the west, giving back control to states and regional governments.

A 62-year-old Oregon protestor, who has previously been accused of "occupying" federal land, was arrested Friday after officials said they found him driving a stolen federal vehicle, police confirm to People. It's the first arrest in connection with the armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, which began in early January. (The protestors, who have also been described as a militia, gathered in protest of the increased prison sentences for two ranchers convicted of arson. The convicted men have in turn distanced themselves from some of the protestors involved in the occupation.) Kenneth Medenbach was arrested in the parking lot of a Safeway,...

Videogame tie-in Frankie Goes To Hollywood was one of the most bizarre games of the 1980s. Ryan takes a look back...
Imagine this scenario: it’s the mid 1980s, and your massive, chunky BT telephone suddenly rings. It’s the boss of Ocean Software, and he has a project for you: design a game based on the pop band Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
What sort of game would you come up with? A platform game, perhaps? A Space Invaders shooter with a bleepy, 8-bit rendition of Relax playing in the background? Most game designers, I reckon, would have knocked out something quick and unimaginative - after all, it’s only being sold on the licence, isn’t it?
Instead, Denton Designs made one of the most unusual and innovative games of the 8-bit era.
Forming in the early 80s, Liverpool’s Frankie Goes To Hollywood played the northern club circuit...

The theme for this year’s Melbourne Underground Film Festival is “Evolve Or Die,” so thank God that after 15 years, the fest has decided to evolve rather than kick the proverbial bucket.
What does “evolution” look like for Muff? For starters, this year is a much more stripped down festival. It runs Sept. 12 – 19 at a single location — The Backlot Studios.
Muff usually features a healthy retrospective section, but they decided to spin that off into a separate event that will run in a month or two. Instead, Muff 15 is all about new cinema, with an even stronger focus on Down Under cinema.
Opening Night: Start Options Exit was originally conceived by local co-directors Chris Mitchell and Yoav Lester as a web series, but was subsequently edited together as this outrageous comedy about a pair of degenerates stumbling through the seedy underbelly of Melbourne.
Closing Night: Acclaimed Melbourne cult filmmaker Stuart Simpson...
