Fonds voor Buitenlandsche Nooden (Dutch Relief Fund for Foreign Needs)
(Redirected from Commissie voor Buitenlandsche Nooden)
The Fonds voor Buitenlandsche Nooden was a substantial relief undertaking of the Dutch Mennonites for the aid of persecuted and suffering foreign brethren. The history of this important fund has not yet been written. The [[Amsterdam Mennonite Library (Bibliotheek en Archief van de Vereenigde Doopsgezinde Gemeente te Amsterdam)|archives of the Mennonite Church in Amsterdam]] contains several hundred documents, the description of which occupies about 300 printed pages. A few of these were described by A. van Gulik (Doopsgezinde Bijdragen 1905, 1906, and 1908), and de Hoop Scheffer wrote an account (Doopsgezinde Bijdragen 1869) of the relations between the Fund and Pennsylvania.
The sufferings of the Mennonites in the 17th century in Switzerland, the Palatinate, Poland, and Prussia, usually caused by persecution by the state, induced the Dutch Mennonites to raise collections, e.g., in 1660 for Danzig, 1662 for Poland, 1665 for Moravia, 1672 for Switzerland, 1674 and 1678 for the Palatinate. A persecution of the Palatine brethren in 1690, which was repeated in 1694, was the occasion for taking up two collections by the entire Amsterdam Mennonite Church, in which 52,279 florins was raised.
In 1709, when the severe persecution in Bern began, the Amsterdam Mennonites invited delegates to meet in a conference in Amsterdam on 24 February 1710. There were delegates from Rotterdam, Leiden, Haarlem, Gouda, Alkmaar, Hoorn, Enkhuizen, Monnikendam, Zaandam, Koog-Zaandijk, Wormerveer, Krommenie, Wormer, Jisp, de Rijp, Graft, and Harlingen. Resolutions were passed: (1) that the Amsterdam representatives (Willem van Maurik, Jan Willink, Abraham Fries, Frans van Aken, Herman Schijn, Jacob Vorsterman, Cornelis Beets), with the support of the Rotterdam delegation (Hendrik Toren and Jan Suderman), Haarlem, Gouda, Hoorn, Alkmaar, Dordrecht, and Monnikendam present a petition to the States-General requesting aid to the Swiss Brethren through diplomatic channels; (2) that the Amsterdam congregation should bear the chief responsibility for the negotiations. But Amsterdam's ensuing attitude gave rise to some dissension, since the delegates of Rotterdam, Leiden, and Haarlem thought the conference had decided that these three congregations were to work together with the Amsterdam representatives. At a second meeting held on 5 November 1710, this disunity was eliminated by the conciliatory talks by Steven Cremer of Deventer. Amsterdam was given the authority to act. If anything unusual should arise, two representatives of the Haarlem, Leiden, Rotterdam, and Zaandam congregations were to be called. In the following year two Frisians were called (Hans Douwens, Sieuwerd Edens) together with Steven Cremer.
Fifty thousand florins was at once collected, letters were sent to Switzerland with intervention made by the mayors of the cities, and correspondence carried on with Runckel, the Dutch ambassador in Switzerland. To ensure good management of the funds, the congregations were divided into seven classes:
Amsterdam (Lamist), Beverwijk, Emmerich, Middelburg, Vlissingen, Enschede, Cadzand, Zierikzee, Brouwershaven, Rees, Zutphen, Deventer (Flemish), Almelo, and Ameland.
Amsterdam (Zon), Hamburg, Zwolle, Uithoorn, Dordrecht, Goes, Brielle, Aardenburg, Kampen, Aalsmeer, Harlingen (Flemish), Blokzijl, Hazerswoude, Zoetermeer, Emden.
Alkmaar, Hoorn, Enkhuizen, Medemblik, Monnikendam, Edam, Purmerend, de Rijp, Graft, Westzaan, Koog-Zaandijk, Zaandam-Oost, Zaandam-West, Wormerveer, Uitgeest, Krommeniedijk, Knollendam, Durgerdam, Ilp, Graftdijk, Barsingerhorn, Niedorp, den Hoorn, Burg, Vlieland, Terschelling.
All the Frisians in North and South Holland.
Haarlem, Leiden, Rotterdam, Schiedam.
Harlingen, Leeuwarden, Hindelopen, and Groningen Old Flemish.
Deventer, Old Groningen (Danzig Old Flemish), and Jan-Jacobsvolk.
On 2 August 1711 four boats with 400 refugees from Basel arrived at Utrecht. From Amsterdam as headquarters they were sent out to Deventer, Groningen, Hoogezand, Kampen, and Sappemeer. In 1713 another troop of refugees arrived.
In 1714, 10,000 florins were raised for Polish Prussia, and in 1715 and 1717 about 12,000 florins were raised. But since this money was soon spent, it was decided in 1726 to take a general collection for the purpose of establishing a permanent fund. The occasion for this decision was the oppression of 1714 in Polish Prussia, causing many to emigrate to Lithuania, who by 1724 had been compelled to flee again in order to avoid military service. Some fled to Elbing and Thorn in Polish Prussia. In addition there were new complaints from the Palatinate. The general collection of 1727 amounted to over 30,000 florins, that of 1733, 64,000 florins, and 1736, 51,000 florins. In 1734 the Dutch congregations which had not yet contributed raised over 1,000 florins. In a half century more than 270,000 florins were contributed by the Dutch congregations for relief of foreign distress.
The Fund supported many brethren in other lands and saved them from starvation. Numerous Swiss and Palatine brethren were helped to come to the Netherlands through this fund. It also enabled three dozen Mennonites out of 156 from the Palatinate who left Rotterdam in May 1731 to survive their trip to Pennsylvania. (See John L. Ruth The Earth is the Lord's 2001, 228). A twofold colonization of Prussians on Walcheren, an island in Zeeland in 1732, and at Wageningen failed through the inadaptability of the settlers, depleting the Fund by about 50,000 florins. It was therefore decided in 1744 not to assist persons who of their own free choice wished to settle elsewhere, but to give aid only to those who were banished from a country for the sake of their faith, or were impoverished through war, flood, fire, etc.
When the persecution in foreign countries ceased, the Fund ceased to operate. The last meeting was held in 1758. Eleven representatives from Amsterdam were appointed as managers of the Fund. Since for nearly a half century there had been no use for the money, Amsterdam decided to liquidate the Fund. In its name a circular letter was sent to the congregations by P. Lugt and B. de Bosche in March 1803. After voluminous correspondence, about 27 1/2 per cent of the contributions made in earlier years was returned to the congregations in 1803. The sum amounted to about 40,000 florins. (ML I, 659-61.) -- Karel Vos
After World War I the situation of the Mennonites in Russia had become very critical; much suffering was caused by the Revolution and civil war. In 1919 the American Mennonites organized shipments of food and clothing and other relief. In Germany the Mennonitische Hilfskasse had begun to function. Soon the Dutch Mennonites too became aware of the situation of their Russian brethren through publications in the Mennonite press of America and through letters written by Benjamin H. Unruh. The congregations in Holland were informed by the booklet by T. O. Hylkema, De Geschiedenis van de Doopsgezinde gemeenten in Rusland in de oorlogs- en revolutiejaren 1914-20 (Steenwijk, 1920), and by reports in the Dutch Mennonite weekly, De Zondagsbode. On 7 November 1920, a Dutch relief committee was founded, which was named the Algemeene Commissie voor Buitenlandsche Nooden on 8 December 1920. The first executive board consisted of Pastor A. Binnertsz Sz of Haarlem, Pres.; D. Woelinga of Vlissingen, Sec. Treas.; and Pastor T. O. Hylkema of Giethoorn; in March 1921 J. W. van der Vlugt of Haarlem became the treasurer, and in October 1921, Pastor F. C. Fleischer secretary. Contacts were made with the Mennonite Central Committee, the German Mennonitische Flüchtlingsfürsorge, the Quakers in England, and soon also with the Dutch Red Cross. Jacob Koekebakker, then pastor of Middelburg, Zeeland, succeeded in penetrating into Russia and reaching Moscow on 13 September 1921.
In the meantime money had been collected in the Netherlands. Between October and December 1920, the sum of 5,383 Dutch guilders was collected, and in 1921 nearly 22,000 guilders. When relief work ended in February 1924, a total of 239,991 guilders had been collected, besides clothing sent to Russia. In October 1922 a total of 1,576,180 kilograms of food and clothing was shipped from the Netherlands to Sevastopol and distributed among the Mennonites. With the Mennonite committee a number of other organizations co-operated: the Dutch Red Cross contributed 10,000 guilders. F. C. Fleischer visited Ukraine in the spring of 1922 and organized the relief. R. J. C. Willink of Haarlem had charge of the work in Russia, staying there in 1922-1923. In the summer of 1922 a children's home was founded at Ohrloff, under the special care of the youth group of Amsterdam. Relief ended in the summer of 1923, when it was no longer possible to get into Russia.
Then another activity was laid upon the Dutch Mennonites. Many Russian Mennonites escaping from Russia came to Holland, hoping to go to America. Many of them stayed for some months in Dutch Mennonite homes. Then in June 1924 the Hollandsch Doopsgezind Emigranten Bureau (Dutch Mennonite Board of Emigration) was founded to aid the Russian refugees in obtaining transportation to the New World. The Board of Emigration was founded by the Mennonite Church of Rotterdam in cooperation with the Algemeene Commissie voor Buitenlandsche Nooden. After World War II the Algemeene Commissie was replaced (1947) by the Stichting voor Bijzondere Noden in de Doopsgezinde Broederschap, which raised funds for relief in Germany and Austria. -- Nanne van der Zijpp

Eclectic means broad-ranging and style blending. To know what is out there, go for it regardless of trends, and dare to mix and match your favourites, even if the combinations are unconventional. It's a fun and fearless way of decorating, and for those who dare to master the task can gain a truly genuine and captivating room setting. This applies to both commercial and residential spaces – hotel lobbies and assembly rooms are in just as much need of creativity as a living room. "Eclectic" was first used to describe the late 19th-century style mix of baroque, gothic, renaissance and art nouveau. All of these can be seen in Eclectic Dash in the shape of charming cherubs, winding crown moldings, bold stucco detailing and French panels. The present comes marching in, challenging and accentuating the classical aesthetics, with colourful abstract splashes, decayed fragmental surfaces, and Renaissance artistry, at a stage when time not only passes by but also leaves traces. Eclectic Dash is a doubtless wallpaper collection that salutes the grand view of life.

Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
The Book That Sparked the Divine Mercy Movement The Diary... Read more
30 Years of Being Friends
By Melanie Williams (Jan 12, 2019)
1989 — 11 years after the lifting of the temporary ban on promulgation of the Divine Mercy message and devotion — the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception, through the Association of Marian Helpers, and Marian Press, were busy spreading Divine Mercy to all the corners of the world. To help spread the word about this important work, and to gather devotees of Divine Mercy together, the Friends of Mercy club was born. Since then, Friends of Mercy have witnessed the beatification and canonization of St. Faustina; the proclamation of Divine Mercy Sunday as a feast day in the Church; Divine Mercy taken up by Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis; and the message and devotion of Divine Mercy becoming the greatest grassroots movement of the Church.
In the very first newsletters, Fr. Joseph, MIC, director of the Association of Marian Helpers, gave updates on the Divine Mercy evangelization efforts. By that time, Marian Press published in Polish, English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Hungarian, Korean, Greek, and Russian! The Marians were eager to spread Divine Mercy even to parts of the world still under the reign of Communism. Saint John Paul II was visiting these countries as well, and the iron curtain was falling in countries one by one.
It's hard to believe that was only 30 years ago. So much has happened, and the world has come so far in many respects. In other matters, however, our world today faces its own challenges and difficulties — relativism, atheism, the culture of death. The world needs Divine Mercy just as much now, if not more, than it needed it 30 years ago.
This is why we stand in gratitude for all of you, our Friends of Mercy. By your support, the Marian Fathers continue to print Divine Mercy materials, including St. Faustina's Diary, and more than one million pieces of Divine Mercy art and literature every year. Many Marian priests and brothers are in active ministry. We have zealous and vibrant lay apostolates such as the Mother of Mercy Messengers, the Eucharistic Apostles of The Divine Mercy, the John Paul II Institute of Divine Mercy, and the Healthcare Professionals for Divine Mercy. We have almost 30 men in formation for the priesthood and religious life to continue this important ministry.
As we celebrate this 30th anniversary of the Friends of Mercy, we thank you for continuing to support us in this important mission and remind you of Jesus' words to St. Faustina:
Souls who spread the honor of My mercy I shield through their entire lives as a tender mother her infant, and at the hour of death I will not be a Judge for them, but the Merciful Savior. At that last hour, a soul has nothing with which to defend itself except My mercy. Happy is the soul that during its lifetime immersed itself in the Fountain of Mercy, because justice will have no hold on it (Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, 1075).
Most important of all, Friends of Mercy, is your participation in the spreading of God's mercy. By your hands and feet, and by your words and works of mercy, God's mercy is able to reach farther than we could ever imagine. Together we are partners in this mission of mercy, and I can't wait for that day when we will stand before our Merciful Lord and see the full impact this mission of mercy has had on the world.
Join Friends of Mercy.


Five Steps Towards Destiny | Encounter. Encourage. Engage.
The process starts within us and it is meant to be applied beyond us. It's not about us, but we're invited. The destiny of significance that was in our original design requires transformation of our soul. The transformation of our soul develops us into our place as agents of transformation.
Everybody would prefer a lottery ticket but children with money tend to waste more than they multiply. When we are serious about the fulfillment of our destiny as driven by the passion of our purpose, we'll willingly submit to the development of our character. When we know who we are, we are willing to sacrifice the distractions that deter us for the sake of a greater goal than our comfort.
Buy the ticket and take the ride even when the road is bumpy. Getting there quick and easy leaves us insecure in our relative incompetence. From that insecurity, we'll never enjoy the benefits of destiny as we'll be so afraid of being found out for our faults that we won't fully deploy the gifts of our strengths.
Start with the end in mind – embrace the fact that there is a design towards a destiny in your DNA and it was put there by the Designer. You were created to do great and glorious things.
Hear and obey – it would be overwhelming to attempt to pull off a supernatural destiny with natural tools. Develop a relationship with Jesus that affords the kind of intimacy which puts you in position to co-labor with Him by direction of the Counselor. Sons of God are led by the Spirit of God.
Persevere – discomfort and even suffering is part of the deal; don't freak out or give up. Stay in community where iron sharpens iron and encouragement flows. Encouragement gives courage and the Comforter brings comfort; we'll need both if we're stepping into the call.
Accept the benefits of maturity – allow for the wisdom that He is producing through your persistent obedience to manifest as you begin to agree with Him in how you think. Teenagers don't stay in driver's education forever; eventually they get their license and keys to the car. Drive.
Do what you want – the process isn't for the sake of the process but for the advancement of the Kingdom. The development of our character equips us in that we increasingly reflect His character. Trust that He trusts you because He's in you and allow for your aligned passions to be released. Have some fun.

Dancers sued over stealing trade secrets, marketing plans
On behalf of Cannon & Thompson, Attorneys at Law, PLLC posted in business & civil litigation on Thursday, April 26, 2018.
A North Carolina court has determined that a case may continue against dance instructors who left one studio to work at another. According to the studio that hired them, they brought the foreign dance instructors into the country under temporary work visas because of having extraordinary ability in the arts and athletics. The lawsuit states that the owners of Happy Dance spent time and money securing the work visas for two of their instructors on the understanding that the two would work for the Fred Astaire dance study the owners run.
Within just months, the partners moved to work at a competitor's studio, taking trade secrets and marketing plans with them. Initially, the courts did not believe there was enough information to hold the two foreign dancers accountable for leaving to work for another company. The North Carolina Supreme Court disagreed and has stated that the case against them may move forward.
The positive thing about this case is that the court recognizes the danger of taking trade secrets and marketing plans from one business to another along with the impact that it has when foreign workers arrive to the U.S. for one company and leave shortly after for another.
It's not always easy to know who to hire or who to trust. However, it's typical to be able to file a claim if someone leaves your company with your secrets and heads to work for a competitor. You should make sure your contracts are in place to prevent people from doing the above, so you can protect the marketing ideas and assets that belong to you.

It's a family affair at Bishop Auckland 2*
Paul Stimpson
Publish date: February 9, 2015
Junior Boys' winner Jack Cope
Honours were kept in the family at the Bishop Auckland Bribar 2*, with several pairs of siblings going to the latter stages of the competitions.
A record entry saw players having to be turned away due to demand, with players attending from as far afield as Scotland and Grantham.
The Cadets saw both the 1st and 2nd seeds, Nick Keast and Josh Wetherby, taken out at the semi-finals by the 3rd and 4th seeds Joe Cope and Tong Wah Chan respectively. In the final Cope came out on top in a pulsating five-set match.
Joe continued his form to also reach the final of the Under-13s, where once again he met Josh Wetherby. Josh made up for the morning semi-final defeat to Chan, came out on top with a 3-1 victory.
Not to be outdone, Josh's sister Charlotte took home the Cadet Girls' title without dropping an end. In the final she beat Alex Robinson from Cliffedale Chandlers in Grantham.
Both the Cadet Boys' and Junior Boys' plate finals saw all-Bishop Auckland club clashes. In the cadets, Max Duffin overcame Sam Hume in five sets and in the Juniors Joe Hume beat Jack Jacomb in four.
The Cadet Girls' plate title was taken home by Cleveland player Lilly Williams from Swerve, beating Abbie Maddison in the final, with Abbie also runner-up in the Junior Girls' plate, losing to another swerve player Madeline Dunn.
Keeping the family theme going was Ruby Chan, going one further than her older brother and winning two titles – the Under-11 Girls, with Cumbria's Rebecca Rigg in second and Bishop's Anya Milne third, and the under 13's title, beating Charlotte Weatherby over five ends. Erin Greensmith took the plate final, beating Lilly Williams in her second final of the day.
Luke Nimmo from Grimsby took home the Under-11 Boys' title, beating Thomas Rayner in the final with Bishop's Leo Pontone and Cleveland's Adam Lambert the losing semi-finalists. The plate final saw best friends and club-mates Luke Mitchell and Joe Sparke play off with Luke winning 3-0.
Another brother who refused to let the younger sibling take the headlines was Jack Cope, who made his way to the final only dropping one set on route to Tom Whittaker in the quarters.
Nick Keast justified his top seeded position by also reaching the final without dropping a set until the final. The final was a classic attack versus defence, with the match swinging one way then the other, with Jack Cope coming out on top in the fifth.
Junior Girls' winner Erin Harrison
The Junior Girls' title was taken home by Erin Harrison from Bishop Auckland TTC. The group went to a three-way countback, with Erin losing to Georgina Peart and Georgina losing to Madeline Dunn. Erin had the better sets ratio and took the title
The next Bishop Auckland Bribar 2star is on March 24. Entry forms can be found on the club website, along with high-quality photos from the latest event, which are free to download – click here to visit the website

TV Networks Transitioning To Programmatic: LiveRail CEO
The last year has seen an evolution in how publishers and broadcasters view the so-called "programmatic" sale of online ad inventory.

"The transition we've seen is a view towards […]
Google's VanDerzee: Big Focus On "Buy Side" of Programmatic in 2014
Google will invent more resources in 2014 on improving its advertising technologies for buy-side customers, says a Google ad exec.

'Addressability Won't Grow TV Pie': Nielsen's Hohman
Several technology developments are promising to revolutionize TV advertising with the same degree of individual targeting now being seen on the web.

Alex Ovechkin: Fighting to keep up with Sidney Crosby
By NBC SportsMar 14, 2010, 9:00 AM EDT
Chicago Blackhawks vs. Washington Capitals
12:30 p.m. EST – Sunday, March 14, 2010
Live on NBC
It seems that it is rare to find a hockey fan that likes both Sidney
Crosby and Alex Ovechkin. It's Team Sid vs. Team Ovi and the battle can
get a bit bloody at times, as fans spew forth hate and discontent
towards the other camp.
It's all part of the natural rivalry that has developed between the
two, as they jockey for position in the race to the be the NHL's best
player and it's still debatable who is in the lead. Is it Ovechkin, he
of multiple scoring titles and highlight-reel goals, who leads the most
exciting team in the NHL in front of the best home crowd the league has
to offer? Or is it Crosby, who has now won a Stanley Cup and an Olympic
gold medal and who currently leads the NHL in scoring?
It always seemed that Ovechkin was in the lead in this race over the years, but he's fallen behind. The world has embraced
Sid the Kid and now Ovechkin must catch up. With the Capitals facing a potential Stanley Cup finals opponent this afternoon we have to ask: is this year his best shot at doing so?
The 2010 Capitals are the best chance Ovechkin might have.
It's been a slow build for the Capitals to get to where they are now,
and there's no doubt they are they best they've been since Ovechkin
joined the team. But great teams like this don't come along every year,
and they'll need to take advantage of the shots they have. Last year the
Capitals had a great team, yet were stunned by the Pittsburgh Penguins
in the semifinals. I'm sure that did nothing but add more fuel to the
fire that rages inside Ovechkin, and watching Crosby hoist the cup a few
weeks later – if he even watched it – had to be painful.
I picture Ovechkin alone in a dark room, watching Game 7 in front of a
flickering television, vowing revenge on his nemesis while crushing something metallic between his hands.
"I vill destroy zat Crozzbee. I vill vin zee Stanley Cup!"
How much does the rivalry drive Ovechkin?
One thing you have to love about Ovechkin is his intense approach to
every game. Some people call it reckless, while I call it a will to win.
He never takes a game off and every shift you know he's on the ice.
Sure, he may not be the most responsible player in his own end but he
certainly makes up for it on the scoreboard.
But how much does he think about Crosby each game? Does he watch the
scoreboard each night to see what the Penguins have done and does he
check to see how many goals Crosby scored? This is the first season that
he and Crosby have been in a race down the stretch for the league lead
in goals, and it has to frustrate the two-time "Rocket" Richard Trophy
winner. He's been beat out for the Art Ross before by Crosby but the
Richard is his. Losing that race to Crosby in a "Year of Losing to
Crosby" would be the icing on the cake of frustration.
The good news: The Capitals aren't just Alex Ovechkin
In the past, Alex Ovechkin has been all the Capitals had. Not so any
longer, as the team has been built around him and compliments his skill
and production in nearly every way. The Capitals aren't a freakishly
offensive team based on Ovechkin's goal-scoring alone; there are players
all over the roster that can put the puck in the net.
Ovechkin recently suffered through a near-catastrophic six-game
scoreless streak, yet somehow the Capitals found a way to win without
him. What's ironic is that in the game he finally scored in – two goals –
the Capitals lost.
So perhaps the pressure is off Ovechkin a bit, so that
he can go out
and be himself on the ice knowing that the team around him is just as
capable as he is.
If Ovechkin has any hope of keeping up with Sidney
Crosby – and you
know he thinks about it – then winning the Stanley Cup this season is
all that matters. The scoring title might be a consolation prize, but
if Crosby hoists that Cup again this season the then Ovechkin would have
fallen a few horse-lengths behind in this quarter mile race.

The Photographers Tracing Algeria's Modern History
No better date than today to show how the country shoots its shots.
As most European nations struggled to keep the upper-hand over their colonised subjects post World Wars, African nations managed to flee their embrace and start navigating the world as completely independent political, economic and cultural entities. Today, we're celebrating Algeria.
Usually considered as one of the bloodiest and darkest events of the entire decolonisation period, the Algerian war for independence sought to liberate the country from France's long 132 years of illegal control and be able to govern itself. On July 5, 1962, they made it happen.
Spanning through almost 8 years, Independence Day in Algeria is celebrated on every 5th of July and the national holiday is widely regarded as one of the country's most important events in which remembering the past almost becomes synonymous with looking towards a brighter future. And there's probably no better way to do so than in photo.
North Africa has witnessed a recent boom in gifted photographers and Algeria does not fail this trend. As we know, an image is worth a thousand words but only a handful can paint their nation's true pictures properly.
For this special occasion, we've gathered some of Algeria's finest talents that always manage to get the perfect shot of the country's spirit.
Une publication partagée par Fethi Sahraoui (@fethi.sahraoui)
The 28-year-old documentary photographer is best known for his work surrounding social matters and issues. Mainly making use of his camera in black & white, his series capture the country's youth, landscapes and streets through compelling shots.
Houari Bouchenak
Une publication partagée par Houari BOUCHENAK (@houari.bouchenak)
Revolving around the human and its environment, Houari Bouchenak's exhibitions and photos aim to serve as a testimony for present and future generations through sensitive and somehow personal pieces.
Farida Hamak
Drawing her inspiration by looking into Algeria's less visible scars left behind by the war of independence, Farida Hamak fills her pictures with emotion and reason to brilliantly trigger the viewer's memories and yearning.
Hocine Zaourar
Hocine Zaourar is credited with one of the most heartbreaking pictures in Algerian history. Active during the country's infamous Décennie noir (Black decade), the photojournalist's coverage of the massacre of Bentalha granted him with some of the world's highest distinctions in photography. Labelled "Bentalha Madonna", the scene depicts a lady grieving in front of a hospital in the outskirts of the capital Algiers following a confrontation with various Islamic armed militias.
Nadja Makhlouf
Une publication partagée par Nadja Makhlouf (@nadjamakhlouf)
Nadja Makhlouf is a photographer and filmmaker that centers most of her projects around the question of women and makes visible those who are not. She is often acknowledged for her work titled "Algérie, algériennes" (Algeria, Algerians) that explored the status of women in her home country between mundane women, their peers and the residues of war in society.

'SHAUN OF DEAD' A BLOODY HOOT
Jay Boyar, Sentinel Movie CriticTHE ORLANDO SENTINEL
No whining, please, about how much you hate zombie movies.
Even if you're usually bored or repulsed by them, you should still keep an open mind about Shaun of the Dead.
Yes, it is technically a zombie movie. It does, after all, feature flesh-eating creatures and the rest of the living-dead apparatus.
And, true, the title is a humorous twist on George Romero's cult classic, Dawn of the Dead.
But "humorous" is the key word. Shaun of the Dead isn't so much a zombie movie as a comedy set in the world of zombies.
That's a fine distinction but a crucial one. The humor is so sharp and hip that even a zombie-movie hater can have a great time.
The Shaun of the title is our hero, a 29-year-old slacker who spends far too much time with his do-nothing roommate in their north London neighborhood pub. Shaun's girlfriend, Liz, can't stand his idle ways, and when he forgets their anniversary, that's the last straw.
You might say that Shaun is turning into a zombie of sorts and doesn't know it. So it's ironic, then, that a sudden emergence of actual zombies in his neighborhood forces him to reassess his life.
Shaun of the Dead (which opens today) grew out of a single, zombie-oriented episode of a British sitcom called Spaced, which was produced by Nira Park, directed by Edgar Wright and co-written by its star, Simon Pegg. They all thought that the zombie thing would make a good movie, and they turned out to be right.
Produced by Park, directed by Wright and written by Wright and Pegg, Shaun of the Dead stars Pegg in the title role.
He's wonderfully sympathetic in that kid-in-a-grown-man's-body sort of way. Even as you find Shaun's immaturity endearing, you wish that, for his own sake, he'd figure out a way to become an adult.
Not that he's likely to do so with Ed, his obese Peter Pan of a roommate, hanging out with him and suggesting they check out the pub every night. As Ed, Nick Frost is the essence of untroubled sloth and even more of a zombie than Shaun.
Filling out the cast are Kate Ashfield as the long-suffering Liz, Bill Nighy (Love Actually) as Shaun's starchy stepfather and Penelope Wilton (Calendar Girls) as Shaun's sweet-but-blissfully-out-of-it mother. Dylan Moran is David, Liz's twit of a not-so-secret admirer, and Lucy Davis (the hilarious British series, The Office) is David's girlfriend.
It's important to pay close attention to the early scenes in Shaun of the Dead. Like some of the best comedies, it's written so that information you receive at the beginning will pay off later. And there's a witty juxtaposition between the mundane details of Shaun's existence, which are set in place at the start, and the larger-than-life frights of the zombie invasion that comes later.
Early on, for example, a red pen in Shaun's top pocket springs a leak and people tell him, "You've got red on you."
The repetition of the phrase is funny in itself. Then, when the zombies attack, and blood spatters become more common than ink spills, the phrase assumes a more chilling dimension.
Shaun of the Dead has some of the sharp, verbal humor of the Monty Python gang, but it's clearly the work of a new generation. The references are up-to-date, and the spirit is breezy and unpretentious.
Unlike the Pythons, who signaled their high intentions by making comedies on lofty subjects -- a search for the holy grail, the elements of religious faith, the meaning of life, etc. -- Pegg, Park, Wright and company have chosen a grungy subgenre as their starting point.
That's why you have to look past the whole zombie thing.
Shaun of the Dead just goes to show that you never know where the next major comedy is coming from.
Zombies or no zombies, this is the funniest film of the year.

Reading Assignments: Reading assignments are provided each week. These assignments flow into the Forum discussions and homework problems. Reading assignments are not graded directly; however, required homework problems must be submitted via the Messages by Sunday at midnight. Optional homework problems are for your benefit and are not required for submission. Your conceptual understanding, ability to solve problems, and ability to synthesize material will be evaluated using quizzes, projects, and a final exam.
Forum Assignments: Mathematics is not a spectator sport. In order to learn the language of Mathematics, you must be engaged with the material. It is critical that you spend time thinking, considering examples, working problems, and discussing ideas with others. The Forums are evaluated in three areas: quantity of posts, quality of posts, and value of interactions.
Quantity – The initial post for each Forum includes at least 250 words, and a minimum of two interaction posts are required per Forum using at least 100 words each.
Quality – High quality posts are critical to the development of everyone in the course. The overall quality of your posts is evaluated.
Value – Banal posts such as "Good work" and "Nice conclusion" provide no value to the Forum conversations. The key to the Forums is quality interaction. Superior posts promote a valuable conversation and meaningful interaction.
Forum Note: you cannot score points for the quality and value of a post if you fail to meet the minimum quantity.
Writing Assignments: Written communication is a key piece of modern mathematics. The Forums as well as many of the homework problems ask you to develop an argument and write it clearly. In addition to the Forums and homework, you are required to write two formal proofs as writing assignments. These assignments are evaluated according to their validity, readability, and fluency. The definitions for those concepts are given here.
Validity – Validity corresponds to the validity of your arguments. It addresses the extent to which your method is appropriate, your calculations are correct, and your deductions follow the rules of logic.
Readability – If your written work is not readable it cannot be assessed. Since the ability to communicate Mathematics is a focal point for this class, special attention will be paid to the readability of your work.
Fluency – Mathematics is a concise and precise language, and I wish to enhance your fluency. Therefore, part of every assessment will focus on your ability to incorporate correct, established notation and terminology into your written work.
Quizzes: These are the core assessment tools for the assigned readings and homework. Your work will be graded for correctness, completeness, and clarity.
Multimedia Presentation: As with the writing assignments, the multimedia presentation provides you with an opportunity to improve your Mathematical communication. For the presentation you will need to effectively communicate your ideas in a slideshow presentation that includes an audio track. Using audio files you will explain your work with clarity and precision. This assignment will be evaluated in a manner similar to the writing assignments. However, an additional criteria will be evaluated.
Multimedia – A completely integrated presentation incorporating written work with emphases and accompanying audio. The total effect of the presentation is evaluated.
Final Exam: As with the quizzes, the final exam is a core assessment tools for the assigned readings and homework. The final exam is comprehensive, and your work will be graded for correctness, completeness, and clarity.
In addition to the required course texts, many public domain web sites are useful. Here are a few sites to consider if you want to view topology and modern mathematics from a different perspective. Please abide by the university's academic honesty policy when using Internet sources. Note web site addresses are subject to change.

The Kale Is Dead, Long Live the Kale!
Kale, kale, surely you've heard of kale. Anyone who's anyone is eating it. Any restaurant worth its pink Himalayan salt is selling it. When we speak of trendy foods, kale is it!
Kale, kale, surely you've heard of kale. Anyone who's anyone is eating it. Any restaurant worth its pink Himalayan salt is selling it. When we speak of trendy foods, kale is it! In a New York Times piece by Kristin Tice Studeman, she writes, "Along with midriff-baring tops and all things Gatsby, another trend has swept the spring social circuit: kale salads."
What? You might protest: "I've been eating kale salads and noticing them on menus for months, if not years." But a D.J. has spoken, therefore the trend is real: "'For some reason when you go to a restaurant and they have a kale salad on the menu, you automatically accept that it's a cool spot,' said Chelsea Leyland, a D.J. and downtown fixture. 'It's like playing the right music of the moment. It gives it that stamp of coolness.'" Huh.
It's a nod to Brooklyn, a nod to vegetables, a nod to food. Later in the piece there's this: "Kale salads, of course, aren't new. But they began popping up on New York menus about five years ago." Ah, yes. No wonder it seemed familiar. After all, NPR declared kale "in the limelight" in 2011, the same year that Portlandia's Carrie Brownstein recommended buying "organic kale" in an interview with Bon Appetit.
There is a food of the moment for any time. A brief, not entirely comprehensive look at a few highlights (read that Food Timeline link above, it's fascinating!): In the 1920s, consomme and jellies were in. In the '30s, Kraft Miracle Whip and Fritos were introduced onto the scene before the '40s became about wartime rationing and a rediscovery of "Grandma's food." What fancy person did not eat Lobster Newberg in the '50s? For a large cocktail party in the '60s, the New York Times Menu Cook Book suggested "Buttered nuts, chicken-liver pate, toast rounds and crackers, mushroom-stuffed eggs, tuna-stuffed eggs, cheese straws and twists, wild-rice pancakes, cream-cheese pastry turnovers, meat filling, cherry tomatoes, green and ripe olives." In less refined circles, Tang was hitting it big. In the '70s, fondue. The 1980s had their wine coolers and welcomed a surge in sushi; for dessert, you could have a pudding pop. In the '90s we ate Boca Burgers, Baked Lays, stuffed crust pizzas from Pizza Hut.
And now in the food-weary 21st century, we've done it all, we've seen it all, and it's time to make it new again. So we veer somewhere between modern-world convenience and old-school farm-to-table. Hence, kale. It's from the farm, or at least the ground, it's not too hard to cook, it makes us feel healthy and maybe even "artisanal." It's, as Tice Studeman explains it, "humble," and yet fashion-y, because, well, salad. It can also be used to create chips, or juice. You can put it in your whole-wheat pasta. You can massage it. It can be supped raw, too, if you've got choppers. It's got everything we need. Some people only eat kale. Or try to.
Of course, there's that age-old dilemma. Once something is dubbed trendy, can it remain trendy? Well, The New York Times did speak to the dominance of kale almost a year ago, in a piece in which Melissa Clark wrote, "Five years ago, before kale salads became staples on practically every restaurant menu in New York, I knew kale as a wholesome vegetable that you only ate cooked." Kale's longevity, it would seem, is as impressive as the Kate Moss quote used to conclude Tice Studeman's piece. But, hot tip: the best season for kale is fall and winter. What I want now is really good tomatoes, with artisanal mayo, obviously, and some home-baked sourdough. Trend-setters, take note.

Françoise Vergès
Françoise Vergès is the Chair of Global South(s) at the « Collège d'études mondiales, Fondation des sciences de l'homme » in Paris, a position she has held since its creation 2014. "South" in this context is not necessarily a geographical term but rather a process that spreads using different "regimes": colonial power; forms of colonization, racialization, and predation; self-segregation of identity-related communities; and counter-hegemony strategies. The methodological approach is that of decolonized thought, of the denationalization of stories and periodizations, of a revision of the elaborate cartography based on and in relation to the West – a vision which has marginalized other routes of exchanges and encounters and undervalued the dynamic creation of other centers and peripheries. Racism is analyzed as a problem constituting certain social relationships, as a social construct and not as a question of morality.
Françoise Vergès grew up on La Réunion in a family of feminist anti-colonialists, before leaving for Algiers where she obtained her « baccalauréat ». After settling in Paris in the mid-1970s, she abandoned her studies to dedicate herself to the feminist and anti-racist militarism of the era, while training under various women to become a journalist and editor. Later, for her publishing company, she traveled to countries suffering under military dictatorships (Chile) or totalitarian regimes (Soviet Union) to record stories of women in their struggles. In 1983, she moved to the United States, where she resumed her studies in 1987 at San Diego State University. She graduated summa cum laude with a degree in Political Science and Women's Studies. She then received her Ph.D. in political theory from the University of California, Berkeley. Her thesis, "Monsters and Revolutionaries: Colonial Family Romance and Métissage," was published in 1999 by Duke University Press. Returning to Europe, she began to teach at Sussex University, then at Goldsmiths College in London.
Françoise Vergès has published works in French and English on Frantz Fanon, Aimé Césaire, memories of slavery, postcolonialism, the postcolonial museum, the process of creolization in the Indian Ocean region, and de-colonial feminism. She has done significant research on women in the Commune of Paris, colonial and postcolonial psychiatry, the colonialism of the French republic, racism, slavery, and museums. She collaborates with artists, such as Isaac Julien on his film "Frantz Fanon: Black Skin, White Masks" (1996), and contributes to exhibition catalogs, such as that of Yinka Shonibare at the « Musée du quai Branly ». She was also a commissioner of the platform "Creolization" for Documenta 11, and created the guided tour « L'esclave au Louvre : une humanité invisible » for the Paris « Triennale » in 2012. She has screen written two films:
« Maryse Condé une voix singulière » (2011) and « Aimé Césaire face aux révoltes du
monde » (2013). From 2009 to 2012, she was president of the « Comité pour la mémoire et l'histoire de l'esclavage » in France.
Since 2004, she has been working on the creation of a museum of 21st-century postcoloniality on La Réunion. She and her team have considered the visualization of a history, of lives, and of cultures which have left behind few traces – namely of slaves, the colonized people of La Réunion – and have proposed a temporality and spatiality differing from those of the French colonial history, by replacing the island in its historical and culture context, in the Indian Ocean, and in its long-standing relations with Africa and Asia. She has suggested the construction of a « musée sans objets », and "museum without objects," which would signify a commitment to purpose. The project was vetoed by conservatives, who were victorious in the 2010 elections. On her return to France, she continued to publish.
In her latest work, « Le ventre des femmes: Capitalisme, racialisation, féminisme » (Albin Michel, March 2017), she turns to the thousands of non-consensual abortions and sterilizations which occurred on La Réunion in the 1960s and 1970s to analyze more generally the controlling of the bodies of women in the South and the blindness and ignorance of French feminism.

Q: SQL group-by largest I have a table that has cooccurrence counts by objects that looks like the following:
col1    col2    count
item1   item2    3
item3   item2    1
item1   item4    1
item2   item3    2

I would like to do a group-by largest top n counts on col1, however if I do that on the above table since all object pairs are not available the result would be the following: (which is not correct)
col1    col2    count
item1   item2    3
item3   item2    1
item2   item3    2

If I swap the columns and then add them back to the same table this would be the result:
col1    col2    count
item1   item2    3
item3   item2    1
item1   item4    1
item2   item3    2
item2   item1    3
item2   item3    1
item4   item1    1
item3   item2    2

And the group by would yield: (the correct result)
col1    col2    count
item1   item2    3
item2   item1    3
item4   item1    1
item3   item2    2

What would the proper query be for producing this kind of group-by? Am I correct that the column would need to be swapped and concatenated or is there a better way to go about this? (I'm using Postgres)
In the above I am showing a group by top 1, for the sake of keeping the example simple, in reality this is a group by top 10

A: This answers the original version of the question.
I think you want:

Ready to buy a new home in Old Woking? Failing to check that a lawyer is on your lender's list of approved solicitors can put your Old Woking transaction at risk of delay or failure.
Only LenderPanel.com provides a subset of authorised Old Woking conveyancers for over 130 lenders.
My wife and I are refinancing our apartment in Old Woking with HSBC. We have a son approaching twenty who lives at home. Our solicitor has asked us to disclose anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who reside at the property. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, waiving any legal rights in the event that the flat is repossessed. I have two questions (1) Is this form unique to the HSBC conveyancing panel as he did not need to sign this form when we remortgaged 4 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?
First, rest assured that your HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor is doing the right thing as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to HSBC. This is solely used to protect HSBC if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son's right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of HSBC had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.
My grandmother passed away 10 months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Old Woking. The house had a small mortgage remaining of approximately £8000. I want to have the title changed into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Coventry BS, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?
Given you intend to refinance then Coventry BS will require that you use a conveyancer on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Coventry BS conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Coventry BS mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I am selling our home in Old Woking and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Old Woking conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers instructed a factory type conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Old Woking. Having lived in Old Woking for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.
I am purchasing a new build house in Old Woking benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The property agent suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about this deal as it will jeopardize my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Old Woking I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Old Woking in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

Barrhaven Optometric Centre relies on highly advanced technology and well-trained staff to provide outstandingly thorough and comprehensive eye exams. We are now accepting new patients of all ages.
Your eyes don't stop changing once you reach adulthood; they continue to undergo structural and functional changes, which can impact your eye health and vision. The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommends adults aged 20 through 64 have their eyes examined every two years or so.
When you think of an eye exam, you most likely picture the wall chart with rows of letters in various sizes. That's called a Snellen eye chart, and while it is part of an eye exam, our examinations go much deeper than that.
In addition to testing your near vision and distance vision, we use advanced diagnostic equipment to evaluate your eye health. Through wide-field fundus imagery, optical coherence tomography, and other state-of-the-art technology, we can assess your eyes' internal structures, monitoring for any subtle indicators of changes or diseases.


MrOS, a research study funded by the National Institutes of Health, began in 2000. Six clinical centers in the United States, located in Birmingham, AL; Minneapolis, MN; Palo Alto, CA; the Monogohela Valley near Pittsburgh, PA; Portland, OR; and San Diego, CA recruited 5,994 men at the baseline visit (2000 -2002). The baseline examination included the assessment of risk factors for fractures and other conditions, including neuromuscular, visual and cognitive function tests; bone mineral density (BMD); x-rays of the spine; QCT scans of the hip and spine and the collection of biospecimens. Three subsequent exams have added a variety of additional measurements, including serial measures of DXA, specimens, neuromuscular, cognitive function, mobility, objective assessment of physical activity levels and HRpQCT scans of the radius and tibia. Ancillary visits have also included two dental visits that included oral health assessments (in Birmingham and Portland) and two sleep visits which assessed sleep using subjective and objective tests. Participants have been contacted 3 times a year since the baseline visit via mailed questionnaire for ascertainment of falls, fractures, death and cardiovascular events (in the MrOS Sleep Study only). An extensive bank of data, images (x-rays, DXA scans, QCT scans, HRpQCT scans) and specimens have been archived as part of the MrOS study.
Please see the MrOS Measurements document for more details about what measures were collected in MrOS and when: MrOS Measurements.

The Alabama Soccer Stadium was built in 2004. The complex features covered bench areas for both teams and a press box with seating for 1,500 spectators and standing room for many more. The University of Alabama soccer field was the first home of Alabama soccer and it saw its first action on Oct. 2, 1994, as Alabama played Furman University. The Tide has compiled a 109-56-11 overall record on campus and a 36-29-4 ledger since playing at the Alabama Soccer Complex.

Upon the renovation of Bryant–Denny Stadium the soccer field received a new high definition scoreboard, which was previously housed in Bryant-Denny. The scoreboard is the biggest in the nation for a college soccer field.

Week 18 – The Beat Goes On!
Greetings! your awesomeness(s)! That is the PLURAL of "your awesomeness", because I want to make sure I acknowledge every single one of you!
As I sit here sipping my freshly brewed coffee and snacking on ginger snaps and crunchy peanut butter, I'd like to say it's been an awesome week. No particular reason; I've had frustrations, technical/equipment problems, unscheduled interruptions, difficulties, work not done, stuff not handled… AND… I didn't even come CLOSE to winning that Work Week challenge with my Fitbit group. The winner was at LEAST 25,000 steps ahead of me for the week. They must have walked to the moon and back! Yet, I had a spectacular week!!
I enjoyed the Master Key lesson, though I had some issues with scroll 5. I didn't have as many issues with scroll 5 as many people had, but for my issues with scroll 5 I simply overlooked them and embraced the parts I did not have issues with. I did go back to review those things I didn't agree with and worked on putting them in context and perspective. For instance, in context, I understood that "greet each day as if it were my last…" was a determination to stay focused on the day, rather than the past or present. In today's vernacular, that's "being present." Then, I opened my email and had note referencing this quote from Dr. Wayne Dyer: "Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed." And that was good!
But, if I took that scroll literally, I'd work like a dog, unceasingly, every day, until bed, never taking a bit of leisure, and going to bed LATE from working; then provided I didn't die overnight, I'd gett up the next morning happy to be alive and do it all again. I know the point was don't waste the days away doing nothing, which was laid out by the previous 4 scrolls.
And lastly, I did get a momentary "ich" feeling when he spoke about fondling his children, but "fondling" didn't have the negative connotation back then that it's been transmuted to today. So that was just a minor readjustment to "intent." And in my communication, I always try to speak intent!
I haven't manifested this week as I'd instructed Subby — at least, not in the way I instructed Subby. But it's been a week of wins, and I've been happier this week, than in a long time — perhaps because of the "energies"I let go of a couple of weeks ago they were no longer serving me. There were lots of potential issues this week, but the Law of Substitution and the Law of Dual Thought have been busy in my life; and perhaps the Law of Growth, because I have definitely been more focused on future success, than any apparent lack or limitation, and I'm even coaching two people on achieving their goals, with some definite influence from #MKMMA, for sure.
Curiously, everything I've been studying lately has served to reinforce #MKMMA teachings (and Mark J's voice). I was on a webinar this evening on creating products to offer on the web, and the host wanted to discuss the top 12 reasons why people fail on the internet. See if any of these ring a bell: 1) Mindset, 2) Quitting-never quit, 3) Fear of Failure, 4) Wanting to Earn Money for doing Nothing — as in no work, 8) only thinking about the money instead of how can I be of service to help other people, 11) not being prepared to help others… and he recommended the book "The Go Giver." All Emerson, give more to get more, being in the dynamic flow, persistence! So whether I've been reading MKMMA, it's being quoted back to me from numerous sources anyhow!
I've also had numerous positive experiences this week. A Do It Now moment, when I scheduled the appraiser for my house for 2:00p that afternoon the first day I spoke with him, rather than the two to three days later I'd already made up my mind to do (and had rehearsed in my head!) Then there was a kindness moment from me, when a headshot client from LAST SUMMER decided they really didn't like the last photo I did of them LAST SUMMER — and I said, come to my studio and we'll redo it, no charge — which I'm sure surprised her. She was much happier with the new ones, however, even just on the back of the camera.
I was invited to hear a 20 piece jazz band perform on Wednesday night — I LOVE JAZZ! — and I gave myself permission to NOT be BUSY, and to go enjoy that. World-class musicians, right here in Syracuse. I met new friends, hung with existing friends, and got to hear one incredible drum solo, then went home on an incredible high after 3 hours of flawless music. Then, on Friday I was invited for a little socialization with another friend and this morning (Sunday) an impromptu call from another friend and colleague who bought me breakfast! PLUS… I fixed my tech problems with my computer — and even MORE! Lots of energizing positive stuff to put on cards from this week.
SO… energy is high, confidence is high, production is up, and everytime I go past the guy in the glass, he winks at me and gives me a thumbs up. He actually knows what's not getting done, but he knows what *is* getting done, and he's okay with that — at least this week.
So that's about it, except for one last thing I did (after fine-tuning my DMP once again). They asked what unique ways we keep our DMP's in front of us. Years ago, I bought a digital photo frame, and I re-discovered it in a box, still functional. So, I took all the photos and screen shots that are on my dream board, images of what I want my life to be, places I want to speak, accomplishments I intend to manifest, my shapes, logos, affirmations (via screen shots or photos from your phone camera) … and I loaded them into this digital frame, and put it on my desk so I can see it. Now, I'm continuosly running a slide show — in view, or just out of view — so when I turn and look, my dream board is flashing at me, moment by moment, dream by dream, with a hand-written note across the top that says, "Window Inside my Life" — with RED sharpie. And if I (or you) happen to be playing my/your favorite energized music, then all the better. I keep this running constantly; sometimes even after I go to bed, so if I wake up in the middle of the night, it's flashing at me then too.
So if you have one of these laying around, there's a great use for it. If not, you can probably find similar models fairly cheaply these days and do your own. Click that photo and it will take you to Amazon (yes, there are affiliate links on this page) but there are cheaper ones on the page.
I've been running this for about a week now, starting the day of our last webby, I think. Maybe that's why I've been so happy all week. Time will tell.
WOW! What a great blog Kelvin!
Even after last nights master mind I am impressed. And the photo frame! I will diffenately dig mine out. Don't know how I forgot it, ok yes I do. Out of sight out of mind.
Thanks, Dan! Heck, I'm thinking about going to buy a bigger one. Actually, I'm going to do a video and put it on YouTube — I'm just slow 🙂 When I think of some other photo, some other goal or something I just add another picture. Lovin' in 🙂 Glad I could help. Thanks for commenting.
What an impressive blog Kelvin. Loved the path you took me down while reading it. Much appreciated!
Fantabulous post Kelvin!!! Soo love the picture frame idea 🙂 Must go purchase one. Thanks for an enjoyable and insightful read.
Okay. Go giggle some more. I'm stil cracking up here.
Whew! Your a busy man! Great post on your Blog, and I love the idea of using the digital photo frame to view your DMP etc…!

Sam Feldt - What About The Love (Official Music Video).
Sam Feldt delivers his hot new house tune What About The Love? And for sure, he's using the right ingredients for this musical delight, displaying all the sounds he's famous for. Lovely vocals, catchy melodies and an infectious drop that flirts with the ears. Ready to fall in love with this tune?


What made us fall in love with The O.C. in the first place — and what ultimately led to its demise — was how quickly it burned through plot points. (Marissa's mom slept with Marissa's high-school boyfriend by episode twenty!) It burned through its creator, too, and Josh Schwartz suffered a highly publicized flameout when he attempted to run two shows at once (the second being Athens, about a college English professor, which never made it to air). Now he's back with two new shows, tonight's Gossip Girl and NBC's Chuck. While Daily Intel will be your home for all things Gossip Girl once the series starts, we caught up with Schwartz and asked him what he learned from his experience on The O.C. — and which plot points he'd change if he had the chance.
Your last attempt to run two shows at once didn't go too well, would you agree?
Yeah, that was crazy. That was just a bad idea. That will go down in history — not actual history, but my history. It was a very weird position I got put in at 27. I'd just come off 27 episodes of a first year show, having never really worked on anything before. And I was writing the majority of The O.C. myself. So [for Fox] to come to me and say 'We want you to do a second show simultaneously,' was not a good idea on many levels.
Probably wasn't a good idea on your part, either.
And the learning experience was?
Don't do two shows at once. Oops! But that show was never going to be a concept the network would like.
How do you avoid a second flameout?
First of all, I don't know that you can. It moved really, really fast, and, look, there were a few things that were complicated. One was, yeah, we were blowing through story as fast as can be, which also is what I think made that first season so much fun. The show also had this self-aware, postmodern sensibility that's hard to sustain sometimes because it's hard to commit to being one of those kind of shows but also commenting on it. Also, I personally burned out, just trying to do that much work over the first two years and trying to do the second show. By the time the third season rolled around, I definitely was not as focused or as inspired as one needs to be.
The self-awareness thing, I can't avoid. I'm just a snarky guy. But with the voice of Gossip Girl, there's a sort of self-aware machine built into the show. If you were to tell me right now that Gossip Girl was going to have the exact same run that The O.C. had, I would shake your hand and say, "That sounds fantastic." I have very few regrets on how it all went, and it was a tremendous learning experience.
Are there any plot lines you wish you could do over on The O.C.?
Oh, sure, lots of them.
Thank you. I love how you're the only one who will follow up with the next question. I would say the whole first half of the third season was a total mess.
I thought Marissa's lesbianism was a bit annoying.
No, that I do not regret. The only thing I'm bummed about that is that they made us write Olivia Wilde off the show much, much sooner than we had planned. I wanted her to stick around. I love Olivia Wilde. I think she's terrific. I wanted to keep that character on. But they told us, "People are worried about this episode and this storyline and blah blah blah." So we had to write her out way sooner than we expected, so it just became much more rushed. But I liked the whole idea. I thought it was intriguing, beyond the obvious factor. The other interesting thing is that the first time they kissed, it was actually very romantic and surprising and kind of touching kiss, and they made us cut like three-quarters of it out, so what you got was like this peck, basically. And then you saw the commercials for it, like, "Don't miss the last five seconds for the hottest kiss ever!" And you're like, "We're dead." Not only did we lose all credibility with the way we were selling it, but what we were told to do was not what we were selling.
What made the third season stink?
We were told to add this Jerri Ryan character to the show that we had no idea what to do with. We were just told we had to add an adult female character. It went nowhere, and we had no plan for it, and it just didn't fit the show. And then we went down the wrong road with this kid playing Johnny [the alcoholic surfer kid who fell for Marissa]. It was just flat. All of a sudden, everything the show mocked, it kind of became. And then killing Mischa [Barton] off. I think it led to a real creative resurgence in the fourth season, but that was hard decision. I'll never know if it was the right decision. I'm not sure ultimately. It was the right decision creatively because it led to the best season we had since the first season, just because all of a sudden there were a lot of new possibilities and it just opened up the show in a lot of ways. Marissa Cooper just became mired in the story. The character was just this Velcro strip of melodrama. And the Ryan-Marissa drama just became a stranglehold around the show, and we couldn't figure out any other way to break out of it.
