Filmmakers Jeff and Jodi Andrysick will screen their new film All Fracked Up II: Water Isn't Water Anymore, Thursday, November 10, at 7:00 p.m. in Park Hall Auditorium.

The screening, which is hosted by Ithaca College student organization Frack Off, will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers.

The Andrysicks have built several energy-efficient, off-grid homes and buildings, including those on their own farmstead on beautiful Keuka Lake. They never intended to become filmmakers, but when industry threatened to turn their beloved lake and region, with its vineyards, tourism, and farming, into an industrial wasteland, they decided to devote their resources to fighting the threat, and filmmaking seemed to be a good way to do this.

As the semester pushes full-steam ahead, you may be feeling a bit overwhelmed. While we all have good and bad days, as stress increases from more assignments due, “crunch-time” can be intense and draining. Constant stress in your life can make everyday tasks difficult and really take a toll on your mental, physical, and emotional health. Anxiety may be good at times ("eustress") and increase productivity, but prolonged worries may make daily activities harder to accomplish- only making your problem worse!

Try to keep yourself healthy and take time to relax so you don't suffer "burn-out." Some stress-reducing activities you might enjoy:

• Writing in a journal
• Taking walks
• Exercising
• Talking with others
• Meditating or listening to music
• Being artistic and creative
