Here is a great music video for the track “Contact” by Jay Stansfield taken from the album Lovism released by White Label Music on 17th October 2011. I have to admit, that Jay got my attention when he told me that his music video was funded by his grandmother. I get over 50 emails a day, and it is impossible to keep up, but I think there is something rad about having your gradma help finance your work. Check it out.

Welsh filmmaker Karl Francis has pleaded not guilty to eight charges of making an indecent image of a child.

The Rebecca's Daughter director, 66, was arrested and charged after he was allegedly linked to a U.S. website investigated by authorities in Virginia and the South Wales Police.

Francis also denied one count of arranging or facilitating sex causing a child sex offence, when he appeared at a hearing in Wales' Cardiff Crown Court on Monday.

Judge William Gaskell adjourned the case until 27 July to allow the defence team to ready their statement and seek expert evidence.

Francis was released on bail under the condition he attends his next court date.
