renaissance2010
Turning to photography as a creative outlet during a valiant fight with breast cancer at age 34, renaissance10 survived and set up a photo contest to help raise funds for the Lavender Trust, a nonprofit that provides information and support to younger women with breast cancer. In the first two years, the competition brought in over £65,000 (that's $107,260.73 U.S.!), with entries from 130 countries last year. Renaissance10 recently joined LiveJournal to meet other passionate photographers and find supportive friends.

Jetlag, so I'm peeking into stocking before even that mighty mouse called Mars is stirring! Merry festive happy humbugs to the lot of you! Early Christmas nosing around

Our turkey looks like it's been run over by truck. Apparently that's the magic of de-boned. Wings, legs and uninterrupted flesh! Feed me! Christmas munching

@dhewlett Hope you're enjoying your Christmas. Feel like saying 'Hi' to a poorly McKay fan today? Pathetic I know but it'd cheer me up :) Christmas wish from JodieJoBrown

You're asking me, the bastion of Scrooge/Grinch glum, to cheer you up?! Wallow in Christmas misery @JodieJoBrown, love the Scrinch! ;-) advises David

@dhewlett You've just made my year. Thanks :) JodieJoBrown responds

Baz passed out on my arm, still clutching his new iPod touch. Leftover turkey & 3rd time through Iron Giant too much for him. Lightweight! Dec 26 post Christmas status

Cold medication + family time = totally bizarre blog post http://loft-in-translation.blogspot.com/
Medicated Christmas musings

A hysterical Hewlett version of the Twelve Days of Christmas.

Off to see The Princess & the Handmaiden at LKTYP with dad, stepmom, sister and two nieces. I'm sitting by myself. Not cool enough, I guess. Dec 27 tweet

Kate, haven't you heard? Uncool is the new cool.

LKTYP is the Lorraine Kimsa Theatre for Young People in Toronto.

Birthday greetings from Bulgaria @Kellerdefender! You can thank your Mum @deblease for making me tweet you ;-) David responds

My "wiil notify" is now a 2pm call time... Maybe slip in a vast Bulgarian pizza in first? Carbs = not freezing to death on set ;-) Dec 16

Room service & a little "DollHouse" Another long shooting day done...they had to clean up my "acting" today with a mop! ;-) Dec 17

Wrapped the movie! While the rest of the cast wade through icy Bulgarian dam water, I'm celebrating by having dinner with Hamish Clark ;-) Dec 20

Struggling to stay awake long enough to have farewell drinks with the rest of the cast...may be farewell breakfasts at this rate! A long day

Hamish "Santa" Clark gave us christmas pressies at breakie! Flying home this afternoon, but missing my fellow Morlock survivors already :-( Dec 21

Half way home, got to heathrow...flight to Vancouver pushed until tomorrow...no luggage either, that'll be fun! Man do I miss the family! Delayed

Ah, my England, land of rain and cold that shuts down when it gets rainy and cold ;-) Got a ridiculously expensive hotel for the night! Layover

I'm the guy at Heathrow hotel bar missing his family and singing along with Frankie goes to Hollywood's Power of Love...gets me every time! Killing time

Waiting on attempt 2 at getting home to Jane and Baz...in Heathrow's rather fabulous business lounge I should add ;-) Dec 22

Gallons & gallons of fake blood & morlock guts just been fired from an air canon at Christina Cole's & my face. We're just so B-movie cool! Dec 11

Freezing studios, forgotten pyrotechnics & the script all conspired against us having fun today. Undefeated we giggled til we wet ourselves! Dec 12

My mum just adopted a pound dog called Woolsey... I'm thinking I'll tell Picardo she named it after him and his Stargate character ;-) New dog for David's Mum

shooting scenes with helicopters very difficult when you don't actually have a helicopter...slightly easier with half a helicopter though! Dec 13

Hoping everyone will rent "Food Inc" despite the icky factor and become educated about what we're eating and spending our $ on. Cuz, YIKES. from JewelStaite
