In 1922 a bunch of tight-fisted Germans made an adaptation of 'Dracula' without forking out for the rights to Bram Stoker's novel. The result was FW Murnau's Nosferatu, which immediately found itself in trouble with the Stoker estate, who ordered all prints of the movie be destroyed. Some prints survived, with Murnau's film going on to influence a century of vampire cinema. Subsequent Dracula movies have pulled as much from Murnau's film as from Stoker's novel, so much so that what we now think of as Dracula lore is a mashup of elements from Stoker's novel and Murnau's film.

Loss, we've all suffered it. Some of us more than others,some less and still yet there are those of us who've not had loss of any significance to this point. Loss, like anything else, is directly related to perspective. What may seem like a huge loss to one, is insignificant to another. People pass away, bad days do the same, they fade into the night or disappear at the bottom of one's favorite drink until they are swept away by the morning's sunrise and things are new. Some loss stays a bit longer, adding scars to our bodies until they become topographical maps of memories; reminders of what not to do or what we didn't do or should've done.
The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Body Cast," the latest video from the North Jersey dynamic duo Tiny Cities.
