Karen Mintz has just finished shooting her documentary
She is about to move into the post-production phase
I had the opportunity to meet with her and her producer Simon Egleton and talk about her film
Filmmaker: Can you start by telling me a little about how you became a filmmaker and what your background is
Mintz: I started working in production 15 years ago
I just kind of fell into it as a lot of people do
I worked for the Dept of Agriculture in New Jersey doing PR work and one day they had a big budget surplus
They were like “how can we spend this money
We’ve got to spend $70,000 before the end of the year.” I came up with this idea to do this cooking show with farm fresh vegetables
I didn’t know anything about production; I just kind of flubbed my way into it
So I ended up doing a series of little documentaries about farmers and agriculture and they did really well
Then with a partner I started a little production company in the city
we did a lot of commercial stuff – all the documentaries that we did at that point would air as small local pieces
I’m working on two feature-length documentaries now and they are my first foray into feature length work
Mintz:  I met Frank at a party a few years ago
I came away from the party and I was like “I think that might be one of the most interesting people I have ever met.” The whole night he and a bunch of other people were hanging out just partying and talking
telling great stories: I didn’t know what he did
At the end of the night he hands me his card
You couldn’t meet a more upbeat gregarious
I don’t know what one would expect from someone who does the kind of work that he does
Would they be a little more morose or more serious
I thought it would be great have him solve a case every month; it takes him about a month to do a case
so I was going back and forth to Brighton where he lived
and there is a really great production community there
So I met some people there and we were trying to pitch the idea of a series to Channel 4 and the BBC
It&#8217;s great because they just have more venues for a five-part series
In the midst of that he called me one day and said
I’ve got terminal cancer.” He said it as though: Aah
I can’t meet you on Tuesday.” But actually it was “I’ve got some bad news — I was just diagnosed with terminal cancer and they’re giving me six months.” And at that time
his wife was ill with stage 4 non-smokers lung cancer
He was actively being a caregiver for her and then he gets cancer
At that time I was so invested in this story because he was so interesting
It was one of those things where you’re like
you’re either going to do it or you’re not going to do it
This guy’s going to be here for six months.” I felt like if I don’t do this
I probably will never come across someone like this again
At the time he was commissioned to do a bust
I asked him if he would mind if I started filming
I just filmed it on like a little Canon Vixia
“Set the camera this way and then don’t touch it.”
Egleton: We did a bunch of tests and we found the ultimate settings
Mintz: He was practically like “Scotch tape it – don’t touch it.”
Egleton: I was such a snob about high def and I was complaining and Karen said
“Look it’s this or nothing.” It was a bit like the Born Into Brothels situation
It was one of those things where – “this is the camera I’ve got
Egleton: The thing is that Karen is a superb handheld operator
so it almost just comes out of gear loathing that I end up handholding
Simon helped me through the whole process of how we’re going to make this film
Egleton:The sound actually initially started with a rode mic on the camera
and it was hissy and the shock mount rattled
It was absurdly badly designed for what it was
So we had this gorgeous shotgun mic left over from another film so we went to B &amp; H and got a mount for it
we stuck it on top of the HV30 camera and it looked ridiculous
But the sound drastically improved since we did that
it ended up working out well because Frank’s situation was so intimate
he went through a period where he couldn’t stop hiccupping
So it was better to have something that was less intrusive than to have more people there
because it’s just very easy and I’m comfortable with it
So we just started and he would call me as he was working on the bust
I think making the film gave him something to do – another thing to focus on
Filmmaker: How much time were you spending with him
A lot of it was just going to his studio; it can be very private
it’s not really that comfortable to have somebody in your face
and I am really grateful that he was willing to let me be there
He starts with a skull and so for a while you are sitting there and you are looking at this skull
And then he goes with the facial tissue thickness markers and starts to add the clay and it kind of builds into the bust
He’d put them in a pot on the stove to de-flesh them
He talked about all that stuff – but this head
had come to him already clean and we were looking at this bust and I would just come in and not say anything for the whole hour of tape
He would play music and I would just watch him sculpt and then through the process you would see
there is a very distinct point when he was working where you are staring at a person
There’s like a moment or a transition in his work where that happened
You are staring at this person and they are looking out at you and you are like “Who are you?’ “What happened to you?” That story really begs to be told
Suddenly you think about this person’s whole family and life
and parents who have no idea what happened to her
She walked out one day and never came back
You are so gripped by the mystery of what happened to her and you understand more how he
being able to bring that person back to life was so dedicated to what he did
Filmmaker: It’s interesting and poetic that he is bringing this person to life as he is dying
Egleton: I remember seeing a quote where Frank said in an ironic tone: “I dedicate a lot of my life to removing cancers from society and I’m being killed by cancer.”
Mintz: It is a nice poetic theme and we hope that someone will identify this woman
There have had so many successes where people have come to him and said
“I would have never known …” This one woman I interviewed said
Every time the phone rings… or I see people that look like her on the street
until there is an end.” Even though they never caught the person that did this she felt like “He gave me back my life.” And he became friends with all those people
They would have barbecues together and go to the pool and hang out
He went to the trial of people he put in jail
He was so involved in the aftermath but he was also not attached to the outcome and I think that was a kind of interesting part of him
He would do a bust and sometimes they would be ID’d and he wouldn’t find out until years later
I think a lot of true artists are about the doing of the thing
In his case of course he was happy by the outcomes when they were successful but for him it was the intensity of doing it and then he could let go at some point
One interview that Simon and I worked hard to get was the interview with a prisoner
There were many ways that Frank touched people’s lives
Obviously he was able to help the families who had lost a loved one
There was another unusual thing attached to one of those cases; the case that was identified at the Mutter Museum
There was a guy who turned himself in after seeing Frank&#8217;s bust of him
We arranged a phone call for Frank to talk to him in prison
This guy saw the newspaper and ripped that picture out and carried it around in his wallet for ten years
He was a drug addict at the time that the murder happened and he couldn’t live with himself
“Had I not seen that image … it just haunted me to the point where I couldn’t take it any more.” And then Frank was asking “What day do you decide ok
today I’ll spend the rest of my life in jail?” And he said
“One day I woke up and the room was filled with light – it was 2 o’clock in the morning and I took that as a sign
“What did they say?” The cops were like “Get out of here.” They thought he was crazy – he had to like really rigorously turn himself in because they didn’t believe him
talking to him and recognizing that his work also provided closure to this person who had committed this crime was something that gave him a lot of pleasure: to see the different ways in which his work tied people’s lives together and brought people closure from completely different perspectives
Egleton: Where we’re at right now – Karen has been funding the film
out of her own pocket and when we first started talking about this two years ago
I was still living off savings from working on the HBO series The Wire
We are good friends and we work very well together and it’s very collaborative and easy and so the more I got steeped in the world of Frank – I mean he’s a wonderful guy – everything about him is sort of – wow
he lived in an old butcher shop filled with hundreds of busts of dead people and didn’t have a problem with it
There’s something almost magical about the way he approaches the work
because Karen has been so close to Frank is to look and say “Well
What brought him to this?” Maybe there was something early on that triggers his desire
He is so unusual and Karen has more footage than anybody
The next step is to really start sorting the footage
Filmmaker:I wanted to follow up on something you said
about asking Frank if there was something in his childhood that brought him to that work
Mintz: He said that what brought him to that work was that he was studying at the Academy of Fine Art
He had just gotten out of the Army and they were offering courses in sculpture
He had a friend who worked at the morgue who said
“Those bodies were like cut in half by trains
people had their heads blown off they were suicides
they weren’t kind of the neat orderly bodies I was hoping for.&#8221; But in the course of being there
“What happened to this woman?” And they said they had no idea
“I know what she looks like.” This guy was a medical examiner and he was like
“How the hell would you know what she looks like?” Franks said
But I know what she looks like.” And that was his first sculpture
and it ended up putting away this guy named John Martini who was a hit man for the mob
I don’t know whether it’s a true psychic phenomenon
something’s going on beyond the norm with him
I mean the fact that he can reconstruct an entire face that’s decomposed and he can produce a bust that is awfully close to the person
Mintz: One of the skulls was just a hole; there was nothing in the facial area
I think what I want to start the film with
because that was the most unbelievable case that he ever solved
And it did put somebody in jail but there was nothing there
There were no facial orbits – there was a hole
Mintz: He risked his life in a lot of situations
But he just lived at his house; He wasn’t living under police protection
He went to Juarez Mexico; he did stuff that was really dangerous
He was a very do-the-right-thing-brave-guy

sustainably designed plant nursery in the heart of France
Residual heat from a nearby power plant and Van Dijk Heating’s Active Ventilation System (AVS) play a key role in its climate control
“AVS supplies efficient moisture removal and a stable climate with low disease pressure,” grower Geoffrey Goutoule says
“It’s all about sustainable tomatoes and a small footprint.”
The sustainable tomato grower Tomates d’Auitou covers 5 hectares of substrate cultivation
which was built in two stages in 2020-2021 by the Dutch greenhouse builder HortiNed
This nursery is currently putting the finishing touches on the third phase
“It will remain at that for the time being,” says co-owner and CEO Geoffrey Goutoule
Residual heatTomates d’Auitou is located in the municipalities of Moustier Ventadour and Rosiers d’Egletons
The location surfaced during a search for a sustainable heat source
so the company wouldn’t need to use fossil fuels
“The power plant in Rosiers d’Egletons already had facilities to supply third parties with the residual heat released during electricity production
but nothing had been done with that in 2019,” the entrepreneur explains
“The energy utility and the authorities were keen to work with us on our plans
which also provided for compensation for the environmental resources that would be lost during construction
Cascade principleThe hot water supplied by the power plant arrives at a temperature of 50°C
Growth pipes and pipe rail heating (Ø 51 mm) transfer the heat according to the cascade principle to the cultivation areas
which are equipped with two screen systems
there are AVS air handling units for active ventilation
which are also connected to the heat network
which essentially only runs to make it easier to melt snow on the greenhouse roof
“We are 600 meters above sea level here on the edge of the Central Massif
so it can snow quite a bit here,” the grower explains
Moisture removal and homogeneous climateThe AVS units are used to circulate greenhouse air internally and to mix greenhouse air with relatively dry outside air that is drawn in and preheated in the AVS
in order to remove moisture from the greenhouse
Goutoule: “Moisture drainage and a homogeneous greenhouse climate with minimal loss of heat and CO2 were the main reasons for choosing AVS
the French owners opted for an AVS-5000 configuration
which boiled down to one unit for every eight rows of plants
Higher capacityThe grower: "Van Dijk Heating recommended one unit for every five plant rows
and a larger ventilation capacity does indeed seem better
The heat available at our company is almost exclusively low-grade
This means you have to create sufficient air circulation to keep the crop active
in consultation with Van Dijk and HortiNed
we have chosen a slightly larger AVS-7000 unit
but we are still sticking to one unit per eight plant rows for a while
The plan is to double the number of units in a few years to one per four planting rows."
The control range becomes substantially larger
while the fans can run at lower speeds at lower energy costs
our greenhouse will have quite similar characteristics as a semi-closed greenhouse
in which you can grow tomatoes very efficiently
An additional advantage is that Botrytis will then cause even fewer problems."

Williams: Finest traditions of the legal profession
Lawyers acting pro bono in a complex family law case countered the stereotyped image of ‘fat cats’, a High Court judge has said in praising their “commitment to the delivery of justice”.
The father was represented by Nasstassia Hylton of 1 Garden Court and the mother by Richard Egleton of Pallant Chambers, both of whom acted pro bono on a direct access basis.
The judge said: “That counsel for the father and for the mother should appear pro bono in such a complex case as this is in the finest traditions of the legal profession.
“Up and down the country, counsel, solicitors and legal executives fill the gaping holes in the fabric of legal aid in private law cases because of their commitment to the delivery of justice.
&#8220;Without such public-spirited lawyers how would those such as the father and mother in this case navigate the process and present their cases?
“How judges manage to deliver justice to the parties and an appropriate judgment for the child without such assistance in cases like this begs the question. It is a blight on the current legal aid system that cases such as this do not attract public funding.
“So far removed from the stereotyped ‘fat cat’, the legal profession in cases such as this are more akin to Boxer in George Orwell&#8217;s Animal Farm, always telling themselves ‘I will work harder’.”
It’s understandable that fully integrating GenAI within any business can feel daunting. This is why the focus should be on having a vision and starting the journey now.
If there’s one thing the legal profession could do today, it would be to make domestic abuse and safeguarding training mandatory for all family lawyers and mediators.
The traditional lawyer in me – and one who increasingly finds technology more confusing with each passing day – is resistant but it doesn’t take a lot to surmise that AI will likely become a very important tool.
The fossilised remains of Britain’s largest &#x27;sea dragon&#x27; have been discovered at the <a class="qNUzV q7LZa" data-testid="next-link-anchor" href="/news/central/topic/rutland">Rutland</a> Water Nature Reserve
The huge Ichthyosaur skeleton was found during some routine maintenance on the nature reserve, near Egleton, in <a class="qNUzV q7LZa" data-testid="next-link-anchor" href="/news/central/topic/rutland">Rutland</a>
Scientists are hailing it as one of the “greatest finds” in British palaeontological history
Ichthyosaurs were marine reptiles that roamed the seas while dinosaurs walked on land
It is thought to be the biggest and most complete skeleton of its kind found to date in the UK
Watch how the Rutland &#x27;sea dragon&#x27; was discovered:
It is also thought to be the first Ichthyosaur of its species (Temnodontosaurus trigonodon) found in the country
The fossil is approximately 180-million years old
with a skeleton measuring around 10 metres in length and a skull weighing approximately one tonne
Ichthyosaurs first appeared around 250 million years ago and went extinct 90 million years ago
They were an extraordinary group of marine reptiles that varied in size from 1 to more than 25 metres in length
and resembled dolphins in general body shape
The huge fossil was discovered by Joe Davis of Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust during a routine draining of a lagoon island at Rutland Water in February last year
The discovery is not the first at Rutland Water
with two incomplete and much smaller Ichthyosaurs&#x27; found when they initially constructed the reservoir in the 1970s
Dr Mark Evans of the British Antarctic Survey said of the latest find: “I’ve been studying the Jurassic fossil reptiles of Rutland and Leicestershire for over 20 years
“When I first saw the initial exposure of the specimen with Joe Davis I could tell that it was the largest ichthyosaur known from either county
it was only after our exploratory dig that we realised that it was practically complete to the tip of the tail.”
He added: “It’s a highly significant discovery both nationally and internationally
but also of huge importance to the people of Rutland and the surrounding area.”
said: “It’s not often you are responsible for safely lifting a very important but very fragile fossil weighing that much
It was a very complex operation to uncover
and collect this important specimen safely.”
The marine reptiles are called sea dragons because they tend to have very large teeth and eyes
The first ichthyosaurs were discovered by fossil hunter and palaeontologist Mary Anning in the early 19th century

Production Manager Matt Towell is no stranger to working with Unusual Rigging
having worked together on numerous West End shows
So when he was brought on board to manage illusionist Dynamo&#8217;s first tour
he naturally decided to sprinkle a little Unusual magic into the mix
Towell elaborated: “The initial plan was to have Unusual Rigging supply us with 125 motors for our production rehearsals in LH2 but
as I&#8217;ve found from working with these guys in the past
it&#8217;s hard to imagine doing any of the tour without them
“So we enlisted the team to do the entire show
They also provided all the rigging services
the pre-production rigging plots for all the venues as well as all the liaising with the venues and structural engineers.&#8221;
The brief given to Towell by Ric Lipson on behalf of Stufish
who designed the show was to create a performance with flying pieces
one of Unusual&#8217;s design engineers was amazing
The Dynamo tour is heavy &#8211; weighing 28 tonnes &#8211; 20 of those are above the stage while eight are at FOH
But she came up with a very cunning design which took into consideration how to rig exactly the same show in all the venues that Dynamo will play at over the coming months.”
Egleton said: &#8220;The first four dates of the tour are performed in theatres where
to some extent rigging the show is easier since there are more rigging points
you have to create a proscenium and the level of engineering required to make the show less difficult to tour is extremely complex
“The trusses are heavy and the number of motors required is large
This of course varies from venue to venue with the greatest number in use in the arenas since there is much more equipment to rig but no flying system
“We adjust the show for each and every venue
not really knowing exactly what&#8217;s required until we carry out a recce just before we move in.&#8221;
Load ins were tight as the crew are required to load in 11 trailers of kit and rig the entire show in just two days
Egleton continued: &#8220;For our crew this is no mean feat
they are able to drive right into the venue and unload but the theatres pose more of a challenge &#8211; you&#8217;re frequently parked two trailers at a time on a cobbled street
Towell concluded: &#8220;While Dynamo is the star of the show
Unusual could really give him a run for his money
have the skill set to cover all the drawings and last minute engineering
The riggers&#8217; approach is nothing other than 100% professional
their health and safety documentation is fantastic

The TimesMinoan Group is in advanced talks with developers about building holiday resorts on the Greek coastline
The equivalent of planning permission for the long-running project was signed last month and yesterday the company confirmed that the cost of ­developing the area would run into ­hundreds of millions of dollars
The AIM-listed company owns about 6,000 acres
including several kilometres of coastline around the Cavo Sidero peninsula in the northeast of Crete
said: “We would not be thinking about doing that [development] on our own
We are engaged in detailed conversations with international developers about how we might do this.”
The value of Minoan’s Greek land was put at about €100 million in 2012
It will be the area’s first big foreign leisure development for about 30 years
The group revealed an annual pre-tax loss of £1.6 million for the 12 months to October 31
compared with a £1 million loss the previous year
which trades under Stewart Travel on Scottish high streets
 Net revenue increased from £5.9 million to more than £6.8 million
but larger operating expenses and finance costs meant that the overall loss came in higher than a year earlier
Mr Wilson said that the travel division had been hampered by a dispute with a back-office provider
which led to higher costs and restricted the roll-out of an expansion into foreign exchange services
Divisional profit was down from £454,000 to £233,000 as a result
which has been resolved and is subject to a non-disclosure agreement
Mr Wilson said that the financial year was going well with gross revenue running about 16 per cent ahead
helped by the strongest March in company history
Bookings to Egypt and Tunisia have slumped while Turkey has also fallen because of concerns over safety
He thought that revenue from the travel and leisure division would be more than £70 million in this financial year
whose headquarters are in London but has its operational base in Glasgow
continues to consider acquisitions and Mr Wilson is keen to reach £100 million of bookings
said that the company may spin off its travel division or detach it in part from the Greek project
 Minoan has bought independent Scottish operators

A dispute over an East Dulwich home’s loft extension led to a costly legal fight between the two sets of neighbours

A millionaire couple who lost a bid to force their <a href="/topic/neighbour">neighbour</a> to tear down her <a href="/topic/loft-extension">loft extension</a> for being too close to their home have been left with a £130,000 legal bill
Liz Peck, who runs a gender-neutral children’s organic clothing business, and her singer-songwriter husband Adam accused neighbour Debbie Ranford of “trespassing” on their East Dulwich property when she built a roof <a href="/topic/extension">extension</a> to her flat
Mrs Ranford’s <a href="/topic/builder">builder</a> used “infill” material on the Pecks’ side of the boundary
prompting the couple to sue to try to force her to dismantle the entire extension
Judge Simon Monty QC concluded there had been a “very minor” trespass across the property boundary
but agreed the Pecks had attempted to use a “sledgehammer to crack a nut” by bringing the case to court
but has now ordered the couple to pick up lawyers’ bills totalling around £130,000
“I do not believe that any court would direct the mandatory removal of a soundly constructed dormer which had caused and was causing no damage purely because of what was at best a minor trespass,” he told Central London county court
“I entirely reject Mr and Mrs Peck’s case that the trespass was cynical and calculated
had been a friend of the Pecks prior to the legal battle
which stemmed from her construction of a loft room in 2014 — done with the Pecks’ consent
A Party Wall Notice was signed by the couple
said she was shocked to later discover the extension had encroached on to their property
believing there would be a gap between the two homes
argued Mrs Ranford had opted not to leave a gap in order to secure a larger loft room and called the infringement a “clear trespass”

Mountaineer Bonita Norris reveals how to overcome everyday obstacles
arguing the work to join the properties was “unavoidable” and only infill material to guard against weather damage was over the line
The court heard Mrs Ranford had sought to avoid the “enormous costs” of a trial and offered her neighbours £13,000 to settle the case earlier
Calling Mrs Ranford the “successful party”
the judge added her settlement offer had been “very generous”
The Pecks must pay £70,000 of their own costs plus 80 per cent of their neighbour’s bill

The Telstra’s Connected Communities Grant Program invites local not-for-profit organisations (NFPs) to apply for their share in $200,000 for projects that empower their community to improve digital literacy and enhance digital capabilities
The program aims to foster the liveability
sustainability and resilience of rural Australia by funding projects that enhance social connection
enable sustainable environmental practices or support disaster preparedness
the program has supported almost 60 projects aimed at building digital capability in remote
rural and regional communities across Australia
“The program has supported a range of projects
from digital literacy workshops that help people to understand their device so that they can feel safe to use the technology
to improving not-for-profit operations and service delivery so that they can better support the most vulnerable
“We have also been inspired by the innovations in information sharing and the positive impact that these new systems have had on the environmental
social and economic outcomes of communities
the program will continue to support projects that embrace new technology and build digital capability to support liveable
regional communities across Australia,” said Ms Willaton
said the Foundation is dedicated to narrowing the digital divide
“Rural communities are great places to live
the reality is that there is generally limited access to technology
meaning people find they have no choice but to move to the city
“For older people it supports connection and opportunities to keep learning and be confident with digital devices
“For younger people it supports them to live
learn and work outside of the metro regions and make these vibrant smaller towns their home.”
Applications close at 5pm AEDT on Thursday
Successful grants will be announced in June 2025 and applicants will have 12 months to complete the funded projects

The safety of wildlife at a nature reserve is under threat following an oil leak
Residents in Egleton near Oakham raised an alarm two weeks agp after seeing oil in the village brook which flows directly into Rutland Water Nature Reserve
Anglian Water immediately dispatched an emergency response crew
which identified the source as a leakage from a residential heating tank which had released hundreds of litres of oil into the brook
Teams from Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust and the Environment Agency are working alongside Anglian Water on the clean-up operation
senior species and recording officer from Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust said: “Thanks to swift action from Anglian Water much of the spill was contained before reaching the nature reserve
a significant quantity of oil has made its way into the protected nature reserve and site of special scientific interest
“We are yet to see the full consequences of this terrible accident on the wildlife and will be closely monitoring the situation with both Anglian Water and the Environment Agency.”
More than 50 fish have been found dead following the oil spill as well as a moorhen and water shrew
With more than 20,000 birds at the nature reserve throughout the winter
Tim wants this incident to serve as a warning to other owners of domestic heating oil tanks to ensure they are well-maintained to prevent similar environmental incidents
Authorities continue to monitor the area to assess any long-term impact on the ecosystem
Farmer Will Griffin in the field where the incident is alleged to have taken place
A female jogger witnessed the shocking incident
between 7am and 8am in a field off Hambleton Hill at Rutland Water
has now spoken out after the distressing incident
who runs JH Griffin and Sons’ Home Farm in Main Street
He said: “These three guys chased the sheep round and round the field until they ran it over and shut it in the car
When a lady jogger ran past she saw the sheep covered in blood and asked what they were doing
They said: ‘we are going to take it home’ - they were actually gloating.”
“I have heard this sort of thing happen before from other farmers
it isn’t an isolated thing you are going to stop if they are commercially motivated there is nothing you can do.”
He called on people to report anything suspicious to police
adding: “I hope the public are aware and are extra vigilant
If they see anything they should contact the Anglian Water [company responsible for Rutland Water] wardens or the police immediately.”
The jogger saw the men leave the scene in a white car with the animal in the boot
The car was later found abandoned and the lamb had to be put down after suffering broken ribs
ruptured intestines and having its back hooves sheared off
Police said they responded to a call made by a member of the public on Sunday
who said they saw men trying to harm livestock on the Hambleton footpath in Rutland
Officers were deployed and the police helicopter assisted in a search for the vehicle
which was located at 9.30am just off Florence Wragg Way in Oadby
Police confirmed the injured sheep was found in the boot of the car
were arrested in connection with the incident
while a third man was arrested for obstructing a police officer
All three have been released pending further inquiries
If you have any information about the incident call police on 101
