Age of Easy Money (full documentary) | FRONTLINE

Did Frontline tell the truth here? 👆 The dollar will collapse and all money will be worthless globally, not just in America, all countries. It has already happened in several countries Venezuela comes to mind and I believe India has also had major issues.

I hope you are prepared with a supply of food, water and other necessities? 🤔

The Hackett-Lowther all-female Ambulance Unit, which was established in 1917 by Norah Desmond Hackett and May 'Toupie' Lowther. They acquired vehicles and recruited women before departing for the frontline in France. The British army would not use the women's unit, and instead they joined the French Third Army for nearly three years of wartime service.

Smiffina Episodes: Frontline 1: Shockwave.

Emma is playing fast and loose with Callum's feelings since she realised he liked her (it's all very last minute and unclear tbf, they'd have been better off making it Nate after he and Emma had been flirting up a storm for multiple episodes around the time of the Witness, though I guess Nate is too flighty and not brooding enough unlike Callum.) It's all very weird and stilted and Callum is behaving strangely to say the least. After he warns Emma 'to be careful out there', Sally tries to find out what's going on. Mid explanation there's two explosions which the girls run towards. One is a nightclub that was largely empty due to it being the daytime and the other a photocopy shop. Emma and Sally are the only officers on the scene at first and are faced with people screaming for help, people in shock, blood pouring from wounds, unconscious people and a huge amount of debris and smoke all over. In the area car, Callum and Will are next on the scene as Gina tries to manage it from the control room via CCTV and reports from her officers. In the middle of the initial response, a man pretends to be a doctor and sexually assaults one of the victims who is trapped in her car. He then assaults Emma, pushing her away, causing Callum to rush in as a knight on white steed and act like her hand was cut off in her fall rather than a cut.

Gina looks shell shocked as she tries to co-ordinate the police response and organise fire brigade and ambulance attendance. She wants to be out in the thick of it to help but Heaton insists she stay at the station and run their response from there.

The police officers are getting frustrated with the press and public at the scene of the explosions and hospital. They're more interested in getting pictures/information than letting help get through. "Idiots!" Ben growls, as they don't move for the ambulance literally blaring its sirens behind them! At the hospital Smithy is forcing the press and rubberneckers out of the hospital grounds as much as possible, "If I find out someone's asking what it's like to be blown up...!!!"

SO15 are taking control of the blast sights, behaving as though it's a terrorist incident for the time being. They want to lock down the two blast areas but as Gina points out, the amount of casualties waiting for transport to hospital and the walking wounded and emergency personnel on site mean that that is impossible.

"Phase two of the public response has started..." Gina sighs, having a very angry warehouseman repeatedly ringing in because he's unhappy with the response time of officers after he called in a potential burglary of his premises. Smithy takes Emma off the cordon as she's behaving as though she's in shock and sets her and Sally onto the mini-crimewave that has sparked up in the hope that all police would be dealing with the explosion.

Sally and Emma concentrate on tracking down the fake doctor as he's moved on from sexual assaulting to telling the injured that they're ok and to go home and rest when they should be in the hospital, causing one man to be rushed in after collapsing at home.

Richard Frost, the fake doctor, is found to be living with his overprotective mother who doesn't believe that he's capable of sexual assault, claiming he's being harassed by the police and another accuser 'just because he loves his mother!' It becomes very obvious that Frost cannot take being told no. Emma calls Callum 'a bent cop' after he holds Frost by the throat. "You're not the officer I thought you were." he scoffs. "You're not the man I thought you were either." She returns, walking off, leaving him holding Frost and shouting her name

SO15 suspect 100% now that the bombings were planned and that police - at Barton St - were alerted to them via an email the day before and that there's another one planned but no clue to where, when or why. Suicide bombers are ruled out and traces of nitroglycerin are found at both scenes so it appears it's either timer or remote controlled detonation.

Emma finds smoke pouring from a warehouse and is tasked to evacuate it. Emma goes back in to try find the 4 unaccounted for. Gina tells her to take a quick sweep of the building and to get out. Emma finds three and keeps searching for another as Sally, Callum, Will, Nate and others head towards the warehouse. Finally she finds the man she's been looking for and they leave but before Emma can get out she hears a door and runs towards two men inside - just as there is an explosion. Emma's radio only plays static now when Gina tries to contact her to the horror of Gina and the other officers in the control room.

Callum is first onscene with Sally second and Ben, Nate and Will bringing up the rear. Will calls for am ambulance as Callum and Sally try and revive her.

According to Ramakrishna, the Hakki Pikkis were originally a nomadic tribe that travelled to forests all over the country and hunted birds. Thus, in Karnataka, they were named “Hakki Pikki” as the Kannada word for bird is “Hakki”. “’Pikki’ does not have any meaning and just came to be used along with ‘Hakki’,” said Ramakrishna. “Our brethren in other States are known by different names such as Nari Kuravar (in Tamil Nadu), Vaghari (in Gujarat) and Pardhi (in Maharashtra),” said Ramakrishna. The Hakki Pikkis are an endogamous community and speak a language called Vaagri Booli, which, according to linguistic scholars, is an Indo-Aryan language.

I attended the Notting Hill Carnival (27 Aug 2023 – 28 Aug 2023) for the second time and high expectations were met. It was a great time, but I must admit, my interaction with the carnival isn't quite like most people's. I go there to photograph and document the event, but I do it as part of my “artistic expression” (sorry for the fake highbrow). While others revel with friends to party, I'm more of a memory hoarder and archivist for the carnival. A girl with a hump and cap looking through a camera.

Don't get me wrong; I dance, admire the stunning costumes, and have fun, but not quite in the typical way it's intended. It's my way of enjoying the carnival, and I can't imagine going and not photographing it. That's my main desire at the carnival—to be a mirror for it, a tiny grain looking outward into that vast sea of energy.

For the past two years, I've focused on a photojournalism style because the event itself and the people within it are fascinating to me. I want to reflect the carnival as it is, but even in this approach, it's still very subjective photography. I choose who to photograph, under what circumstances, how to frame the image, and later, I select and edit the pictures. So, it's not reality, but it's the carnival through my experience.

Btw I welcome any notes or comments on this series :)

I observed numerous photographers and videographers on-site and had the pleasure of discovering their work on social media. It's a joy to see their personal reflections of the carnival. Capturing this incredible party filled with culture and people who open their hearts and identities for the camera is like a gift for a photographer. They reveal themselves in all their euphoria, and it's an unforgettable experience to be a part of.

One of the reasons I feel very fortunate to be living in London (or more like surviving London) is the opportunity to attend this J'ouvert. It's one of the few parties where I have an absolute blast.

This year, it took me a while to process my own work and edit it. Part of the reason is that I took more pictures and spent more hours at the carnival than last year. However, this doesn't necessarily mean the pictures are better; there were just more to go through, and I needed to take my time. To be honest, I'm a little disappointed with this year's photos compared to last. I'm not sure if it's because the novelty has worn off a bit or if I wasn't at the top of my game those two days. I'm quite rusty since I hardly take my camera out anymore and I really should do it more since even the camera's batteries die on me from lack of use!

My success depends on finding stories and interesting individuals at the carnival and being able to react quickly to capture the moment. Many times, I've seen something worth photographing and fumbled the opportunity. I hate when that happens, but it's bound to occur.

Additionally, while editing the pictures, I quickly realized that I had used the wrong camera settings (What a delight!). The pictures were noisy and looked of low quality. They seemed fine on the tiny camera screen, but on the computer, they resembled images taken with a 2000s Nokia. Lesson learned, or maybe not so much, as it seems I did worse than last year. But I'll certainly be more cautious in the future, ensuring I set the right parameters on the camera and invest in a better lens for fast-paced events. There should be no excuses, but as I mentioned last year, I often have mere seconds to capture a shot, dealing with whatever light conditions the sun or tree shadows throw at me and the speed at which my subjects move. So, it's not easy.

The AI noise reduction tool in Photoshop has helped salvage some of these photos that might otherwise have been discarded due to cases of "this person looks amazing, but the picture is shit". So, if you notice unreal smooth skin or odd lines in shadows, it's probably the AI at work.

As I write this text, I'm using an AI to assist me (hi chat), and it will be processed and grammatically corrected by it. Thus, both the images and text in this series bear the touch of artificial intelligence. Part of it is due to my mistakes, lack of time and skill, but it's also because AI is a valuable collaborator. I appreciate the style it adds to the photographs (and the grammar haha), making it a great creative partner for now. Let's see how it evolves in the future…

Another noteworthy aspect is that I've been sharing a lot about my experiences at the Notting Hill Carnival with a close friend, Carmen (too humble/shy to share last name). She always provides interesting interpretations and insightful comments on everything I tell her. She seemed amused by my stories and photos of the carnival, so I asked her if she'd be interested in creating some text based on the photographs.

Carmen has done some great work to accompany one of these series, the LOVE series (the text is in Spanish btw). She has never attended the Notting Hill carnival, so she based the experience on these pics. I really like how she writes, so I was very happy to have her included here.

I hope you enjoy the photographs and the information I tried to dig up on the culture behind the costumes and the traditions I saw. Of course, if you want to know more do your research and don't stop here, as there's lots to discover. Also, I want to make a disclaimer that the specific meaning of these scenes at the Notting Hill Carnival can vary widely among participants. Carnival costumes and symbols are highly individualistic and can be influenced by a person's cultural background, personal beliefs, or creative inspirations.

Thank you for reading!

Cris
