Showstopper! The Improvised Musical
6-29 August, 15.00 & 22.50
Showstopper! – The Improvised Musical is fast becoming a Fringe institution, both in Edinburgh (where it debuted last year, with the help of the late, great Ken Campbell) and in London (where it's had regular stints at the King's Head and Leicester Square theatre since).
By the time the festival ends this bank holiday weekend, the Showstopper! team will have presented 24 new musicals. As the full title suggests, these mini world premieres are improvised anew at each performance.
Musical director Dylan Emery is notionally in charge, marshalling the various components, though doubtless not even he can predict where things are going most of the time. Emery begins by inviting suggestions from the audience on a story, title and different musical styles to be incorporated, and then, while also leading the four-piece onstage band, starting and stopping the performers to redirect them, instruct them on setting, choreography and other production enhancements, and send them off on new plot tangents until they eventually reach some sort of sensible climax.
The performers respond with aplomb. To witness them launching into a big production number and somehow coordinate on-the-fly lyrics and refrains is a awe-inspiring – and often very very funny. This is ensemble work in the most daring sense of the word.
By its sheer nature, Showstopper! is a difficult thing to pin down and review – it is truly different every single night with, during the Fringe, additional performances based on a critics' fictional reviews (See Michael Coveney's blog to read how they brought his "dream" musical to life) and other special guest 'book writers' – but I can happily declare it to be ever fresh and inventive, even more so on repeat viewing.
NOTE: The above review dates from August 2009 and this production's run at the Edinburgh Fringe 2009. At the 2010 Edinburgh Fringe, Showstopper! The Improvised Musical runs from 6-29 August 2010 at Gilded Balloon Teviot.

A hungry kingfisher emerges from the water with its fish lunch in tow. LIKE A BULLET this peckish kingfisher stealthily dived into the water to catch its lunch. The pictures show the brightly coloured bird glide gracefully out of the water after catching an unsuspecting fish. In another shot, the kingfisher appears to be taking a well-earned break on a nearby branch after the energetic display. Italian amateur photographer Marco Merli (28) could not believe his eyes when he captured the kingfisher in action. The pictures were taken in Ferrara, northern Italy.

Wise Words "FACTS & OPINIONS"
Go to Comments
_(Comments may be made on this subject and will be posted upon approval Thank You)
Any fact is better established by two or three good testimonies than by a thousand arguments -- Emmons
Facts are to the mind, what food is to the body -- On the due digestion of the former depend the strength and wisdom of the one, just as vigor and health depend on the other -- The wisest in council, the ablest in debate, and the most agreeable companion in the commerce of human life, is that man who has assimilated to his understanding the greatest number of facts -- Burke
Every day of my life makes me feel more and more how seldom a fact is accurately stated; how almost invariably when a story has passed through the mind of the third person it becomes, so far as regards the impression it makes in further repetitions, little better than a falsehood; and this, too, though the narrator be the most truth-seeking person in existence -- Hawthorne
There should always be some foundation of fact for the most airy fabric; pure invention is but the talent of a deceiver -- Byron
_Opinions are stronger than armies -- If they are founded in truth and justice, they will, in the end, prevail against the bayonets of infantry, the fire of artillery, and the charges of cavalry -- Lord Palmerston
He than never changes his opinions, never corrects his mistakes, and will never be wiser on the morrow than he is today -- Tryon Edwards
Change of opinion is often only the progress of sound thought and growing knowledge; and though sometimes regarded as an inconsistency, it is but the noble inconsistency natural to a mind ever ready for growth and expansion of thought, and that never fears to follow where truth and duty may lead the way -- Tryon Edwarads
We should always keep a corner of our heads open and free, that we may make room for the opinions of our friends. Let us have heart and head hospitality -- Joubert

_It is more true to say that our opinions depend upon our lives and habits, than to say that our lives and habits depend on our opinions -- F W Robertson
Opinion is the main thing which does good or harm in the world. It is our false opinions of things which ruin us -- Marcus Antonimus
The feeble tremble before opinion, the foolish defy it, the wise judge it, the skillful direct it -- Mad. Roland
It is common to men to err; but it is only a fool that perseveres in his error; a wise man alters his opinion, a fool never -- Arnold
Nothing so obstinately stands in the way of all sorts of progress, as pride of opinion; while nothing is so foolish and baseless -- J G Holland
Do not think of knocking out another person's brains because he differs in opinion from you -- It would be as rational to knock yourself on the head because you differ from yourself ten years ago -- Horace Mann
He who has no opinion of his own, but depends upon the opinion and taste of others, is a slave -- Klopstock
Social opinion is like a sharp knife. There are foolish people who regard it only with terror, and dare not touch or meddle with it; there are more foolish people, who, in a rashness or defiance, seize it by the blade, and get cut and mangled for their pains; and there are wi9se people, who grasp it discreetly and boldly by the handle, and use it to carve out their own purpose -- Mrs. Jameson
Public opinion is a weak tyrant, compared with our private opinion -- What a man thinks of himself, that it is which determines or rather indicates his fate -- Thoreau
If a man should register all his opinions upon love, politics, religion, learning, etc. beginning from his y outh, and so go on to old age, what a bundle of inconsistencies and contradictions would appear at last -- Swift
Fly no opinion because it is new, but strictly search, and after careful view, reject it if false, embrace it if 'tis true -- Lucretius
A man cannot utter two or three sentences without disclosing to intelligent ears precisely where he stands in life and thought, whether in the kingdom of the senses and the understanding, or in that of ideas and imagination, or in the realm of intuitions and duty -- Emerson
Error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it -- Jefferson
An obstinate man does not hold opinions -- they hold him -- Bp. Butler

At Corning
Well I am off on my own for two weeks for another glass class...but this time - its at Corning! I have to say - I have taken classes at the following glass schools, Haystack - in Deer Isle- Maine, Pilchuck (2x on scholarship), Urban Glass in Brooklyn, NY, Bullseye in Portland Oregon, and none of these are physically as close to me in location as Corning is and it is now over ten years into my love affair with glass that I get know the Corning Glass Museum. It is the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory of the glass world!
I am on my third day and I have so much to show everyone...I have already made 5 sand-blasted pieces but unfortunately my camera will not work with my laptop and I will have to wait to show you all my pictures. The class I am taking vitreous painting and sand-blasting class taught by Denise Stillwagon Leone...a wonderful teacher and amazing artist! Some of the work we are doing is similar to work I have done in the past, but the vitreous painting is the same process as one of my favorite artists who I have blogged about in the past... Judith Schaechter Definitely click on that if you did not get a chance to see it before...there is also one of my stained glass pieces there.
I know this wasn't the most exciting blog but stick with me until I can get my new glass work up here for you all to see. Hopefully, this weekend when my husband comes we can get some new pics,...until then I am back to the glass classroom!

phpMyAdmin in Cloud Hosting
phpMyAdmin is part of every Linux cloud hosting package we provide and it's accessible via our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel. A tiny phpMyAdmin icon shall be shown on the right side of any database that you set up inside the MySQL Databases section of the Control Panel and by clicking on the icon for the database that you want to access, you shall be logged into the app immediately in a new tab of your web browser. Then you can do everything you would like - export the entire or a part of the content, import a database, run SQL queries, search and modify terms. If you don't want to employ the Control Panel, you will also be able to log in via a direct phpMyAdmin login page, but you must know the database username and password. The last feature is beneficial if you have to provide access to a database to a third-party.
phpMyAdmin in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you have a semi-dedicated server package through our company, you'll be able to access phpMyAdmin to handle any MySQL database that you set up in your account via the Hepsia hosting CP. A new tab will open inside your browser whenever you click on the phpMyAdmin icon for a particular database and you will be logged into the state-of-the-art tool automatically, so you'll not have to enter the database username or password. If you want to grant access to another person such as a web designer, for example, you could give them the database login info and they will be able to log in through a direct link to phpMyAdmin, so they will never need access to your whole web hosting account. This option will allow you to keep your files and emails safe at all times.

You know what it's like, that awkward moment when you step into a room to feel the tension so high everyone is tiptoing so as not to step on the eggshells. It's no fun. Eighteen years ago, I had my TMJ disorder flair up. This wasn't a simple case of the jaw not functioning correctly; it was a full-blown lockdown of the jaw. I couldn't eat rice and lost weight using Slimfast with ice cream! The solution was to visit a dentist who specialized in TMJ disorder. From the moment I walked into his office, I knew I was in trouble. The room held tension like a hot air balloon. No one joked around or made anyone feel at home. I don't know how many times I came away in tears from the atmosphere and the pain of those shots.
This past weekend, I took twelve students to the Oregon Asociation of Student Councils' fall leadership conference. The keynote speaker, Phil Boyte, shared with us how to connect with our student body and staff. As I condensed the information, I realized it was good for everyone and could be used in the workplace, home, school, and even church. So, here is my take on Phil's information on how to have a place where people aren't afraid to walk through the doors.
1. Start Simple
During the session with Phil, he had us rearrange our seats and sit with someone we had never met before. After a quick ice breaker, he had us turn knee to knee and share one thing about ourselves. We took turns sharing until the time was up. Then we shared "Most people don't know that…" What amazed me was how many of the students reported back a connection with that one person. It took a total of five maybe ten minutes. That time though gave one student the courage to follow another on Instagram. Another student when lost later that evening found her partner and asked where to go. A third student commented the next day how amazed he was that he could still list things about his partner from the day before.
It doesn't take much to begin building bridges. It takes a foundation of friendship. Just like in our time in the conference, if you reach out to one person and find out about him or her, you can make the difference in your class, job, or family. To start with find just one person. Then build another block to your bridge by reaching out to another person. Find out their favorite things. Then surprise them with one on a special day. Everyone enjoys a gift just because. Sometimes just a smile on a bad day is enough to lighten the mood and give you hope to carry on.
2. Be Intentional
Find ways every day to be kind and learn about the people around you. Be genuine in your interest. It doesn't take much to ask how a person's day was, and mean it. Then when you hear about them being afraid or concerned about something, check back with them to see how it went.
The last two years, I had a student who was in Spanish 1 and then Spanish 2. Every day, she'd skip down the hall in the morning and stick her head into my room to say, "Hola, Senora Wyatt!" Her cheerful smile made my day.
Choose to be that one who brings a smile to someone's face every day. You'll be surprised at how that can change the atmosphere around you.
3. Be Persistent
People are creatures of habit. When someone isn't accustomed to another caring for them, it may take a while to break down the walls that have built up. In Anne of Green Gables, Marilla Cuthbert doesn't want a boy, but Matthew comes back with a girl. Anne Shirley eventually won Marilla over. It took a lot of persistence and several mess ups on Anne's part. The same is true of your situation. You will have obsticles. Be prepared to bounce back and keep being friendly.
4. Be Creative
One school shared how they had given a survey to the new teachers who had been hired that year. Then on the first day of school, they had a student deliver the teacher's favorite breakfast beverage. Later in the day, they had a different student deliver the teacher's favorite candy bar, and at the end of the day, the new teachers found a note in their mailboxes thanking them for their hard work that day! Now, that's creative.
Think of fun ways to show someone that they are important. Remember that different people hear kindness (love) in different ways. Some use words, others meaningful touch, while others want to serve and be served.

Indian agriculture largely depends on monsoon rain and farmers face challenges of erratic weather but majority of them follows tradition ways of agricultural practices. In this backdrop, an agro-ecological methodology is gaining ground in various pockets which is popularly known as SRI. System of Rice Intensification is a set of innovative agricultural practices and many farmers from states like Bihar and Chhattisgarh are adopting it. But its contribution is inadequately documented.
In this backdrop, Solution Innovation Review interviewedProfessor Norman Uphoff, Cornell Institute of Public Affairs, Cornell University, USA – who worked extensively on this innovative agricultural practice. Professor Uphoff shade light on this agro-ecological methodology. Edited Excerpts:
Now, several experts are advising about change in cropping. What your view on it?
The whole world is likely to face greater challenges of more erratic weather and climate stress. There will need to be some changes in cropping, but more important, changes in practices — how crops are managed.
And how rice intensification can work in such scenario?
The methods of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) enable plants to become more resistant and resilient to climate stresses — especially drought and water stress, but also the damages from storms (lodging of plants due to wind and rain), and also flooding, and extreme temperatures. This is because with SRI methods, the plants grow larger, healthier root systems that can take up more nutrients and anchor plants better.
There is also good evidence that the healthier plants grown with SRI methods are more resistant to pests and diseases, which are made a more serious threat by climate changes.
What are challenges ahead, you see?
Mostly making changes in mindset. SRI shows that reductions, rather than increases, in inputs like seed, water and fertilizer can give more production. The green revolution had many successes, but these are diminishing now. We need to be benefiting from genetic potentials for greater productivity and plant protection that can be evoked with SRI methods that promote greater root growth and also greater abundance and diversity of beneficial soil organisms that help nourish plants and protect them from predators and pathogens. There are strong interests still favoring input-dependent improvement. Inputs can be beneficial, but better when part of a larger management strategy to support the life in the soil and to promote symbiotic relationships between plants and their biotic environment.
In countries like India, we witness emergence of grass-root innovations. Such innovators express their concern over lack of funding in developing countries. What's your take?
Innovations almost by definition do not have the same support base that established practices have. India is fortunate to have a very vibrant NGO sector (civil society), but there are some very good partners in universities, government agencies and the private sector. Such like-minded persons need to work together to mobilize resources within their respective organizations, and by working closely with farming communities to mobilize self-help resources there. If there are successful efforts being made to reduce hunger and poverty, it should be possible to attract some external support. But that support will not come as a precondition for effective local efforts. And those efforts should be prepared to make as much progress as possible with their own resources. A big part of development is overcoming the psychology of dependence that pervades colonial and post-colonial situations. Too many people are still waiting for others to come to their rescue or provide their salvation. If such resources can be attracted and mobilized, fine, if there is a self-standing and self-directed base to work from.

"The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands." Psalm 138:8
Discernment is defined as the quality of being able to understand clearly. I once heard it described as those places in our lives where the line between "right" and "wrong" gets fuzzy.
From time to time I get super frustrated with myself because I don't feel like I am hearing from God (especially as quickly as I want to). I am learning that the best way to have discernment is to get somewhere and get still and quiet and pray for God to come in and give me a word. I notice when I am at my most confused is when I haven't been in prayer, haven't been studying the word, and spending time with God in the way that I know I should be. Our discernment comes in when we give God a space to work in. If we are all confused, emotional, stressed, and worried, then the Holy Spirit won't dwell there.
What tends to happen when we are within ourselves is we start relying on how we feel and what we think, which is okay to a certain extent, but when we remove God out of it, it becomes dangerous. Hebrews 5:14 says, "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil." This scripture makes me think of maturity. Discernment comes with maturity, which comes from experience, wisdom, knowledge, etc.
There are certain areas in my life that I am so much more mature in than what I use to be. I would make foolish decisions, decisions off of emotions, and decisions about what I want not what's best. Now that I am older, it is becoming as clear as a bell. Even when I mess up, I quickly see where I messed up and am able to fix it.
Even if we discern and our discernment is wrong, I don't feel that God will punish us because our heart was in the right place. We just have to make sure we don't continue to make the same mistakes over and again.
I will leave you with this,
Philippians 1:9-11
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.
Love to you all!

The Magic 8 Spectacle
[Part 1/8]
A lot of unseen effort goes into Formula One. Multi-million dollar deals, driver contracts and immense scrutinizing to keep the protagonists on the grid in check. F1 is a peculiar business. Drivers are employees and their sole objective is to win, whilst their employers are tasked with developing competitive cars and maintain solid sponsorships to fund their endeavours. All at the same time, hundreds of personnel are "back at the factory" working day and night through the year, be it in the sweltering heat of summer or the cold recesses of winter. Here are eight spectacles that run through the heart and veins of Formula One.
Formula One is a scene of an organised chaos. Filled with roughly 2000 people, during a season teams travel across the globe from corner to corner. Once only 8 races filled the F1 calendar, but now there are around twenty each year, beginning in March and ending in November, spanning a massive distance of 160 000km across the rondures of the Earth. But even after the rush of a year traveling around the world chasing a trophy, it is only the racing that stops. Then it is a battle against time for engineers, mechanics and aerodynamicists just to name a few, fill the factory to continue developing a car that has already been conceptualised around July/August of that same year.
Top 12 Most Dominant Formula One Cars
Every once in a while, an F1 team produces something different. A car that is so great, it cannot even be termed competitive.They were simply to good. Some dominated for just a season, whilst others remained and were developed for years.
Formula One is sports automated gift to mankind. Heroes from all populated continents have competed in some spectacular machinery over the years. Remarkable designers and architects of cars have bred some creative and awe-inspiring initiatives. The challenge for engineers to work their way around the rules and regulations has been a constantly fascinating journey. Some innovations were so ingenious that scrutineers failed to nullify any unwanted loopholes found by teams. Some names that have emerged over the decades have helped create Formula One into the household name it is today. Here are the top twelve most dominant cars in Formula One.

China executes pirates
China has executed 13 people in the southern city of Shanwei after one of its biggest piracy trials on record.
The pirates - 12 Chinese and an Indonesian - were convicted of intercepting a cargo ship in November 1998.
They are said to have boarded the Cheung Son masquerading as Chinese police before killing 23 sailors.
They threw the bodies overboard and made off with the ship, selling its furnace slag contents for $300,000.
Another 25 people received long prison sentences.
Skippers warned
The Cheung Son has never been found, says the International Maritime Bureau, which reported earlier this week that the number of raids and attempted raids on yachts and ships worldwide increased by 40%, from 202 to 258, in 1998.
The report said pirates carried guns on 53 occasions and knives were used twice as often as in 1998. Indonesia accounted for 113 of the attacks - almost double its total for 1998.
Armed factions in Somalia, who have held crews from yachts and ships to ransom, have led the IMB to warn skippers to keep at least 50 miles from its coast.
A total of 203 attacks, or more than two-thirds of the incidents, took place in seven countries. After Indonesia, the worst-hit nations were Bangladesh (23), Malaysia (18), India (14), Singapore Straits (13), Somalia (11) and Nigeria (11).

Rohini: Empowered to dance
Some days back I was at my friend Mala's house, watching my friend's 4 year old daughter Chinni jumping in joy. The reason for her excitement: Chinni was going to participate in a group dance, to be presented at the school's annual day. Mala was excited too, for it was the first time her child would perform on stage and she was trying to borrow a camera from a neighbor, so she wouldn't have to miss the precious moment.
This, I am sure is the story of every parent, every child at every home. We celebrate the dancing and the singing moments of our children. Many of us send the children to formally train in dance. The reality dance shows on TV are getting more and more popular and are attracting boys and girls of all ages.
But as they grow up, things change. We see a great divide of morality slowly created by families. While boys, now men, are allowed to dance on, girls are barred from doing so. The same parents who once filmed/photographed their children – boys and girls alike – dancing, now reprimand the girls for doing the same because now it's an immoral act, a taboo for women from 'decent' family background.
Rohini Powar comes from Purandar taluka of Pune district, once famous for its lavani - the famous folk dance form of Maharashtra. For generations, dancers have performed Lavani in courts, impressing kings and their ministers alike with their delicate movements and lilting singing. With time, the courts have vanished, but Lavani is very much a part of Maharashtrian culture and every school student performs Lavani in annual day event.
Born in 1985, Rohini was first forced to leave school by her poverty-stuck family at 17 and married off 2 years later. Post marriage, with increasing burden of financial difficulties, Rohini had to try different ways to contribute a little more to the family's income. She learnt to stitch dresses, taught women in her villages the same and also worked as a farm labourer to help her family.
Of the many things that she wanted to do but wasn't allowed, was dance. And so, while working hard eased her financial burden, Rohini still felt like a prisoner who had no way to express herself. She yearned for a way to self expression, to tell her thoughts, her stories. Joining Video Volunteers' India Unheard program as a Community Correspondent was a result of this yearning.
From 15th of March'2010 to 28th, during the training of all the Community Correspondents in Sanand, Gujarat which she attended with 31 other people,
Rohini was one of the most active and vocal participants. Every evening after dinner Stalin and Mehul, two of our Directors would bring in a drum and start creating a musical wave to infuse some life into the group of trainees, tired from the day's classes and lessons. As the beats grew louder, a group of watchers would surround the duo, before slowly joining in. And they would be followed by another group with legs ready to start a-shaking!
Evening after evening, the second group would have one steady face – Rohini. She would be the first one to swirl with the drumbeat and the last one to stop! Her energy was infectious, just as was her wide smile.
On 28th of Morning, there was a small event where we said goodbye to each other and what these training meant to each one.
Most of the trainees said the expected thing; that they learnt of videos, news, shooting, issues and new responsibilities. When Rohini's turn came, she said 'After 7 years, I danced. I came here, accompanied by 3 people. But I'm going back alone'.
She didn't elaborate further. She didn't have to. The message was clear for all of us: Rohini had found her way to self expression. She had found her courage, suppressed so far. She had found herself. And she was going back, with the new self, to do something that meant the world to her: Get stories of the voices who lived within the margins, just like her.
Gujaratnama 2: What is 'Cinema'? It's 'Cine plus Maa'
It was at the screening of a film that I first met Eid. Samvad, the Community Video Unit had organized a get together of all their community members in Berhampora. I had accompanied Stalin, the founder of Video Volunteers, invited to speak on the occasion, which also had a special screening of several of Samvad's films. As Stalin and other guests speakers finished addressing the audience, a frail old man walked on the stage. As everyone wondered what he would say, Eid Mohammed took the mike and started – ;Cinema' is, for me, Cine plus Maa (mother). Just as a 'Maa' would never teach her child wrong things in life, Cinema also teaches nothing but the right thing. These cinemas that Samvad showed today also shows us truth.'
At this point, I knew I had to know more about this person. So post event I met Eid and asked what made him think of 'Maa' while describing cinema. 'Because of these film makers of Samvad', he said. My area – Narayandas –ki-chali, always had so many problems. We had no drainage, lanes were full of garbage and almost all the men were addicted to arrack or drugs. But I never knew these issues could also be the subject of a film until one day these young men and women of Samvad came and started shooting. When I asked who they made these films for, who would see them, who would do something about it, they said 'you'. This reminded me of my mother especially when she would notice something bad that I did. She would say 'Yes, beta, something bad has happened. But you are still special. And you can do so much better for yourself.
Eid was a regular at every screening. His eyesight was getting weaker, but his passion for films and change was the same. In fact his enthusiasm was fast spreading among other community members, earning him quite a few fans, I was told. What I didn't tell him is that he had just earned another one – in me.
Gujaratnama 1: On road, but not at the end of the it
That Bhagwanpura village is just 100 km away from Ahmedabad - capital of the largest and supposedly the richest Indian state is hard to believe. For reason one, there is no running water, no toilets and no tar road. The only mode of transport for common people is Chakda – a strange combination of a cycle rickshaw and a push cart. There are so seats and no shed to save yourself from the blazing April sun, or pouring rain, if that ever comes.
Bhagwanpura has a population of about 10, 000, of which nearly half are landless. They are also Dalit or lower caste. April is the beginning of a tough time for these people. Because, this is when the village wells run completely dry. The fields, half baked in the sun, are not fit to be cultivated until the rain comes and with no work at the farms, the landless villagers have to face the eventuality: Leave their homes in search of work.
This year also several families are already on the move. Some are moving to Ahmedabad to work on the special road construction projects, while some will go to Surat, the city of textile factories. They will return after 3 months when the Summer is over and the farming is to restart. Apparently, there isn't much to take except a few clothes and a few pieces of utensils. The doors will be locked, yes, but nobody fears looting or damage to their homes. No loss, save that of one academic year for their children.
The children follow their parents to wherever they go. This forces them out of school for 3-4 months. On return, either the school authorities decline to let them back in, or the students themselves refuse to go to school because they can't grasp the lessons because of the long interval. Either way it's an end of the road for them.
But this year will be different for people of Bhagwanpura, I am told. None of the children will have to drop out, they say. And why so? 'Because now we have our migration cards', they say. Explains Sejalben, a villager who will be leaving her village with 4 school-going children soon, 'Apna Malak Ma people showed us a film where we learnt that government will provide special cards to migrant workers like us. If we showed these cards, the school in our new work place would admit our children in the same class. After seeing the film, we approached the sarpanch. The sarpanch formed a special committee and wrote our names to get us those cards, she said.
There was a smile on her face as she talked, and a sense of pride in her voice. I wonder if it was the pride of being able to protect her child's future, or, empowering herself with information she never had before.
Apna Malak Ma is a Community Video Unit in Limdee, Surendranagar district, launched in partnership between Video Volunteers and Navsarjan NGO and the film that helped empower Bhagwanpura is called 'Haal Beru Bhano'.

For today's Wicked Weapons post I was inspired by watching American Psycho! If you don't know what I am talking about, let me show you:
Oooh yeah! Are you ready to listen to me ramble about the deadly, brutal weapon that is the AXE? Good! Because here it comes...
When I see killers use an axe as their weapon of choice I cannot help but think of barbarian warriors, screaming in a battle fury as they smash a throwing axe into someone's skull. The force of the blow sends the victim reeling as their bodies slam viciously to the ground. Blood splatters the killer like blue woad covers a Celt. Both grin in satisfaction and pull their axe out of the meat of their victim with a grisly squelching sound, tearing more flesh just by taking out their tool. This is the power of the axe. This is why it's a deadly weapon.
The axe is a tool that is most commonly seen used to chop wood. Perhaps you are up visiting your cabin in the woods. You're likely to find an axe somewhere, because you're going to need wood to keep yourself warm. But there is more to this tool then what it initially projects. Like the machete, it is a pretty useful tool. It splits, chops, and cuts wood, making things easier when you need to break down timber. It has a smooth handle for easy gripping, and it's head can come in two blades or one solid blade. It can be made of different metals, like iron, copper or bronze. And it can come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
The axe even has it's own spiritual side. It has been used as a Heraldic symbol and was wielded by priestesses and priests. Also like the machete, the axe has a very long and rich history. Axes were even used as far back as the Neolithic period! Back then they were made from stone but still had the function of chopping and dicing. Battle axes on the other hand, were used in wars and killed with brutal efficiency. You really didn't want to face someone with an axe. They were usually willing to get right up into your personal space, and the strength that it would take to wield the thing, let alone clock you with it would be pretty substantial. Do not fuck with a crazy warrior holding an axe!
Unlike some of the weapons that have been featured, the axe is not shown very often in horror. And while it only makes selective appearances to work as a murderer's trusty helper, the appearances it does have are highly memorable and famous. When it shows up, you know it's serious business time! A few of the most famous appearances are The Shining, Evil Dead and American Psycho. Each of these films has imagery with the axe that is chilling, barbaric, and iconic.
In The Shining, one of the most famous scenes of all is when Jack busts through the door with the axe, then sticks his head through the hole. He looks completely off his rocker! It's awesome and kinda hilarious! (At least I think so. I laugh every time I see it.)

Greenbeard Release Debut Album Stoned at the Throne
And now, a play:
Officer McWhitey: Uh, do you know why I pulled you over?
Me: Nope.
Officer McWhitey: You were driving erratically. Swerving all over the place. What's that you've got there?
Me: Oh, it's a CD by this band from Austin called Greenbeard.
(Officer McWhitey, as portrayed by the douchiest buzzcut-looking motherfucker you can find, takes the CD, examines it.)
Officer McWhitey: Stoned at the Throne, huh?
Me (Looking at Officer McWhitey and realizing he's at least eight years my junior): Yup.
Officer McWhitey: Step out of the car, sir.
I hope you enjoyed this original play. I bet you didn't know I wrote plays. I don't. Greenbeard, however, write riffs, and that's even better. The Austin, Texas, four-piece list July 10 as the release date for their full-length debut, Stoned at the Throne, but you can stream the thing now and since you can, you probably should.
Background follows, culled from the internets:
We present to you, "Stoned at the Throne"! Our first full length album. This collection of music represents everything we stand for. 8 tracks of blistering riffs, heavy grooves, hard hitting beats, and tastefully meticulated song writing. We urge you to sit back, clear your mind, turn up the volume, ready the rig, and get stoned at the throne with us. Enjoy!
Greenbeard assembled to honor and celebrate all things heavy, riff driven, stoner, desert, and above all else, rock and roll. "Greenbeard" was recorded in the spring of 2014. Chance Parker, Alex Smith, and Buddy Hachar collided visions to manifest a sonic liquification of heavy riffs, dark grooves, and hypnotic beats.
"Greenbeard" dove deep into the blueprints of heavy rock. Tracks like "Sludgito" will melt your mind with their never ending slow roasting bass groove. "Eris" shuffles through the Texas desert soil with driving riffs and hard hitting drums.
Desert rock from the sun stricken soil of Austin, TX. Greenbeard brings prolific vibrations to the universe via drums, bass, and guitar.
Stoned at the Throne comes in a CD jacket with custom artwork by Headbang Design of France. Stoned at the Throne was mixed by Adam Hamilton (Brian Jonestown Massacre/Counting Crows/LA Guns), and mastered by Paul Tavenner (Cleopatra Records). Recorded at Ohm Recording Facility and engineered by Chico Jones. Produced by Alfonso Gonzalez.

I did this for my sister as part of her wedding shower invitation. I really enjoyed this.
I wanted the focus to be her nickname (her is Carolina), so the illustration revolves around that.
This is the final sketch. I used the tombow for the lettering and promarkers for the illustration. I also tried having a variant baseline for each letter.
But then I decided to change the colors of the background and the typography to make it sweeter.
And one last version with just her name
Hope you guys like it.
