 “I was asked to be in the last two ‘Harry Potter’ films and I couldn’t do it because I was busy filming ‘Grey’s Anatomy,’ ” McKidd said. “There was this mean, alpha-male werewolf character, who’s like the big villain in the final film.” Our guess is the role McKidd was offered was that of Death Eater Fenrir Greyback (character image to the left) read full article and watch video here Patrick Kevin Day – LATimes, explained what it took to transform Dave Legeno into Death Eater Fenrir Greyback
The look of Death Eater Fenrir Greyback in ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince’ took 10 makeup artists painstakingly applying goat hair to silicone. Special makeup designer Nick Dudman had to scramble to complete the look of the werewolf Death Eater Fenrir Greyback in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.” “They didn’t select [actor Dave Legeno] until quite late, and we didn’t have a lot of time,” Dudman explained. Luckily, this wasn’t some two-bit indie production; this was a big-budget Warner Bros. blockbuster, with the resources to go with it. “We had about 10 people on just that one character,” Dudman said. “We can take the time to pay attention to detail.” For Greyback, Dudman’s team spent seven months stockpiling a supply of multi-piece silicone makeup to be applied to the actor’s head and chest, with each bit of goat hair individually punched into the makeup. “You can’t use wig lace, because it will show,” Dudman said. “It has to be done by hand.” It took about 5 1/2 days to apply the hairs for one set of makeup that would be used for only one day of shooting. Dudman had no way around it. “The makeup removal process would always result in the silicone pieces being destroyed.” read more here Stars helped campaign shine By Kaye Nicolson
Published: 19/07/2011 Council convener George McIntyre takes the fight to London The news that RAF Lossiemouth had been spared the axe marked the end of a triumphant campaign which united film stars, political foes, business leaders and tens of thousands of men, women and children. The nine-month battle to save the base was organised with military precision and marked by a dogged and dignified determination which attracted widespread support far beyond the boundaries of Moray. Hollywood actors Ewan McGregor and Kevin McKidd, Scottish comedian Fred Macaulay and the leaders of all Scotland’s political parties threw their weight behind it.

RAF Leuchars will become an army base, with its Typhoons leaving for Lossiemouth in 2013 and the army starting to move in later. Campaigners had been battling to keep both bases open. Troops will also be stationed at Kinloss in Moray, which closed as an air base as part of MoD cuts.

Their goal is to make a global network of relationships so that there can be an exchange of training support and clinical experience for those participating. In 2008, the Facultad de Medicina Universidade Eduardo Mondlane (EUM), at the Central Hospital of Maputo in Mozambique became the first partnership. Mozambique has high numbers of individuals under the age of 18 that suffer from fatal neonatal conditions and high mortality rates, thus creating an urgent need for a program like Partners for Pediatric Progress. With less than 20 pediatricians in the country itself, there are no specialty trained pediatric surgeons and specialists to choose from. Partners for Pediatric Progress conducted various surveys of the level of need for the area. The organization is committed to sending the required number of medical specialists ranging from pediatricians to surgeons to Maputo to assist in training and working with other medical staff who are established there.
