Catch the musical that is beloved by generations in Colombo this week
By Uditha Jayasinghe
For many Sri Lankans, the strains of Do-Re-Mi are as familiar as nursery rhymes. Many came across it even before they knew the tune belongs to the iconic musical 'Sound of Music' and would be enticed at the prospect of watching it live in Colombo at the Nelum Pokuna Theatre this week.
Many people in Colombo are avid theatre-goers and would likely be enthusiastic about adding a renowned musical of international standard to their viewing experience. For them, having grown up with the touching scene of seven lonely children hearing the notes of Do-Re-Mi for the first time and being introduced to music by the kind Maria, is a chance to go back in time and sing along to some of the best loved tunes of all time.
The musical is presented by Cinnamon Life and performed in Colombo by the Broadway Asia Group with 26 cast members including locals, nine musicians, twenty touring crew members and about 60 stage hands. On Wednesday, it was all hands on deck with the entire troupe readying for their first performance that evening. Rehearsals and technical fine tuning was in full swing when the media entered for a small preview of the show at Nelum Pokuna.
Impressive preview
The expressive hands of conductor Kevin Kraak was just visible from the orchestra pit as a medley of 'The Hills are Alive,' 'Sixteen going on Seventeen,' 'My Favourite Things,' 'Climb Every Mountain' and 'So Long, Farewell' resounded before the curtains parted to a scene set in the Von Trapps' imposing home.
The iconic staircase that everyone will remember from the first meeting with the children and later in dance numbers is the backdrop to the performance of Do-Re-Mi with Maria. The next song was "Climb Every Mountain" by the Mother Abbess, which was performed by Janelle Visagie, proved that she has a stunning voice. This top calibre performance is why the Sound of Music is worth watching and will be an indelible memory. Six out of the seven children, with the exception of the eldest are played by talented Sri Lankan actors. After an enthusiastic performance, they lined up to give their views.
For them, it is the chance of a lifetime and the first time any of them had been part of an international production. Working alongside the experienced international artists had given them fresh confidence and a literal bounce in their step, which they showed as they danced and sang along with Maria.
"I play the role of Luisa in this production. I have been on the stage since I was six years old but I have never ever done anything as exciting as or as big as this. Because this is a major international production and we are very honoured to have this production in Sri Lanka. It's so nice to have met so many new people onstage and what makes this experience sweeter for me is that my little brother is in the other team," said Amaya Perera who is part of the Purple Team. As is the norm in Broadway and other theatre productions the seven shows to be performed till 18 February will see some actors changing, including the children.
Local performers
"We had a huge response for auditions and my team was able to filter that down to twelve performers. Talking to the team that has worked with these children over the last two weeks, they certainly found the children coming out of their shells and speaking more, sharing more. They were very respectful, very polite but quiet. However, I think we have seen today that they have benefited from this process and I think that is joyful and these children are going to enchant the audience," said Producer Max Finbow.
"This is emblematic of the power of the arts. Be it performing, be it art, be it theatre or poetry; the involvement of these children has given them greater confidence and a chance to express their talent. Hopefully, the show will portray the unique involvement of these children with international performers and encourage similar shows to be brought to Sri Lanka and do shows of your own here on a big scale."
Veteran performance artist Soundarie David Rodrigo was also full of praise with regards to the opportunities given to children by the production. "In Sri Lanka there is a lot of talent but unfortunately there is not much support. Of course we do have local groups that will develop opportunities but sadly even in terms of mentality of parents I feel there is a lot of focus on academics and not necessarily the arts. It is those that actually have a rounded approach including arts that are able to manage their time accordingly and excel in their studies," she said.
"One may not necessarily have a knack for acting but there are other aspects of production that they can get involved in and I think it is important that students see that it's not just books but there is a lot more to life than academics. That does not mean you have to ignore your studies but it is acceptable to venture into the arts. There is a whole world out there and I can see that our local actors have also improved through this process. They are more confident and they seem to have become veterans." The preview of the show was also attended by school children from several nearby institutions. Colombo is a cosmopolitan city with a deep and varied theatre history and the Sound of Music will be another one of its 'favourite things.'

new style for educational work?
but i was told by the studio that assigned it that it looks like a colored sketch, not a finish. bummer!
what do you think?
3 comments:
oh that is a bummer.. I like it too Maggie. Maybe you can do a compromise and do this technique with not so many white empty spaces.. which I do LOVE but I think maybe that is the reason why the client feels it "sketchy"ReplyDelete
I like this too: no reason why work shouldn't feel handmade just because it's digital. Any way to increase the range of colors in the color layers while still keeping the sense of texture? The line work and shapes are nice and strong; you could probably up the ante colorwise without any loss of clarity or impact...ReplyDelete
I agree with Tim, the handmade quality is great no matter where it originates... I really like the sketchy, "searching" quality of the linework, but somehow the gray color seems out of place with the color values of the rest of the piece. I wonder if darkening the line, and also strengthening the values of some of the colors? Hopefully Photoshop will let you do all that with just a few keystrokes!ReplyDelete

We might think from a western view that Indigenous peoples in fourth world circumstances need to be empowered, but in reality, we already know what real power is and how it works. Reality is, we are waiting for western cultures to grow up, and to exercise a more spiritual and ethical power-with that is respectful of self and all relations.
Power from my Mi'kmaq view is about knowing and experiencing the power of creation flowing through and around me. This kind of natural power is not something we take lightly. Being aware of this power demands responsibility and justice-making on a daily basis. My whole life depends on living in this kind of realistic balance and beauty. This is the only way to live a sustainable life.
Even western people now use rhetoric of "sustainable development" but reality is, no form of western development is sustainable. Development as a principle and a practice is itself deeply flawed. We Indigenous people do not need development. We need respect. We need to be heard. We need to hear. We need to practice these dimensions of our spiritual and cultural role as Custodians of Creation. This is the only path to health and well being for us and for all people of this planet.
I am constantly gob smacked at how deeply connected mental health is to ecological balance and harmony. Once we are out of sync, our bodies register sickness and dis-ease. Our bodies like Mother Earth carries memory over long periods of time. To cleanse our body we need to de-tox. We need to smudge and do ceremony of cleansing. We need to eat really healthy and cleansing foods and herbs. We need to take baths in fresh and flowing water. We need to sit in the wilderness and allow the first beauty to penetrate our mind and heart.
Getting back to the first beauty is the key. Only then do we know who we are created to be.
Power in the west is a very twisted thing. Power of this kind controls knowledge. But creation is not like this at all, in creation what is known is felt, shared, open, and flowing. Water is the carrier of knowledge in creation. Only human beings build dams and collect water to hold it still without allowing water to move. Just think about this spiritually. We presume so much. We would stop the very flow of water and be proud of destroying vast ecosystems because we can build massive concrete structures. This is what we have come to, and to me, it is very sad indeed.
What gives me hope is sitting in the red dirt of Mother Earth. Let go of the sadness, I say. Let go. And get back to country. She will tell you how to live. She will bring you back to health.
The library is dedicated to the memory of Secwepemc Chief George Manuel (1921-1989), to the nations of the Fourth World and to the elders and generations to come.access here

This section is from the book "Modern Cookery In All Its Branches", by Eliza Acton. See also: Larousse Gastronomique.
Make into a very firm, smooth paste, one pound of flour, six ounces of beef-suet, finely minced, half a teaspoonful of salt, and half a pint of cold water. Line with this a basin which holds a pint and a half Season a pound of tender steak, free from bone and skin, with half an ounce of salt and half a teaspoonful of pepper well mixed together; lay it in the crust, pour in a quarter-pint of water, roll out the cover, close the pudding carefully, tie a floured cloth over, and boil it three hours and a half. We give this receipt as an exact guide for the proportions of meat-puddings in general.
Flour, 1 lb.; suet, 6 ozs.; salt, 1/2 teaspoonful; water, 1/2 pint; rump-steak, 1 lb.; salt, 1/2 oz.; pepper, 1/2 teaspoonful; water, 1/4 pint: 3 1/2 hours
To make Ruth Pinch's celebrated pudding (known also as beef-steak pudding a la Dickens), substitute six ounces of butter for the suet in this receipt, and moisten the paste with the well-beaten yolks of four eggs, or with three whole ones, mixed with a little water; butter the basin very thickly before the crust is laid in, as the pudding is to be turned out of it for table. In all else, proceed exactly as above.
Take a fine woodcock (or half a dozen rice-birds) that is ready for the spit, and put it into the middle of a large beef-pudding, laying the meat under, over, and round it; finish it as usual, and boil it four hours or more: the fine flavour of the bird will pervade the whole contents of the pudding.

|Dearth and Prophets
|26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.
|27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.
|28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.
|29 Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help, and who is the sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
|14 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.
|2 Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof languish; they are black unto the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
|3 And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters: they came to the pits, and found no water; they returned with their vessels empty; they were ashamed and confounded, and covered their heads.
|4 Because the ground is chapt, for there was no rain in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.
|5 Yea, the hind also calved in the field, and forsook it, because there was no grass.
|6 And the wild asses did stand in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like dragons; their eyes did fail, because there was no grass.
|7 O Lord, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou it for thy name's sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.
|8 O the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?
|9 Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.
|10 Thus saith the Lord unto this people, Thus have they loved to wander, they have not refrained their feet, therefore the Lord doth not accept them; he will now remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.
|11 Then said the Lord unto me, Pray not for this people for their good.
|12 When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.
|13 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
|14 Then the Lord said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
|15 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
|16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.
|17 Therefore thou shalt say this word unto them; Let mine eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.
|18 If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! yea, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.
|19 Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul lothed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!
|20 We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against thee.
|21 Do not abhor us, for thy name's sake, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us.
|22 Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? art not thou he, O Lord our God? therefore we will wait upon thee: for thou hast made all these things.

I am going to throw this out there I love beer, all different kinds of beer. In the past few weeks Governor Nikki Haley signed a new bill in effort to get new breweries to move to South Carolina. It originally began as a way to get Stone Brewing Company to move to South Carolina.
The bill allows breweries to sell food and retail at their business and brew pubs to distribute their beer. Although the down side is brew pubs have to turn in their liquor licenses, which I believe is a somewhat fair trade off.
What this means to the everyday beer drinker
The "Stone bill" will allow more breweries to come in with fewer restrictions on selling their own beer. I am looking forward to seeing how many different beers come to South Carolina. I am hoping for more local breweries to open in the Upstate – I am sick of the overdone IPA.
So for the inner hipster in all of us, this has been a monumental step forward to better beer .

"The older we get, the more certain we get about who we are and what our purpose is. For me, a lot of it is still unknown, but as I make my way down my own path, I have begun to realize that there are indeed some inevitable truths that I know for sure. On your own blog, write a post that talks about "the one thing you know for sure.""
I wasn't really sure where to start with this till it hit me last night after my 2nd crappy day at work in a row. I was almost ready to head home, curl up on the sofa & watch mind-numbing tv *ahem* jersey shore *ahem* & not bother with heading to Jive but there was a little bit of me that knew if I went I'd forget everything & leave with a smile on my face. Do you know what? It worked! So my answer to the one thing I know for sure is:
"No Matter How Bad Your Day Was, a Good Old Dance Will Perk You Up."
~ the people – everyone's your friend whether you know them or not, (ok there are a few dance snobs but not many), they're all really friendly, up for a dance & a good time so their positive vibes end up rubbing off onto you. I have my close friends at Jive & also people that I say hi to, have great chats & dances with, but only ever see when I go to class. It's so nice to have this mix cos you can talk to someone if you're really down or just get on with the dancing side & just say your day was fine if you don't want to go into detail.
~ the atmosphere – two of our venues are in bars, the other one is a leisure centre. I prefer the bar venues because you get time to socialize with a drink as well as dancing & it's more of an upbeat night out. It's a combination of the disco lights, the pumping music & the buzz of the other people around you.
There are times when dancing doesn't work & I've turned up to a venue, tried to have a couple of dances, realized I'm getting nowhere & I'm frustrating myself & just left, but these nights are few & far between.
The downside to these nights out is when I get home at about 12:30 / 1am & I'm on such a high I can't sleep. I end up watching tv trying to calm down & usually stagger to bed about 2am, then have to get up for work at 6am & start the day grumpy due to lack of sleep! Yoink!

Public Policy and Private Cupidity: Berle and Means Re-VisionedComparative Research in Law & Political Economy
Research Paper Number3/2007
Document TypeArticle
Publication Date2007
- accountability,
- corporation,
- democracy,
- governance
AbstractAdolph A. Berle and Gardiner C. Means' The Modern Corporation and Private Property is one of law's undisputed canonical texts. Its 75th anniversary is an occasion both to reassess its legacy and perhaps to rework its insights. Although Berle and Means' work was intended to redirect the governance of corporate affairs away from furthering private cupidity and towards advancing public policy, their enslaving insights have done more harm than good, they have tended to reinforce the primacy of private cupidity or, perhaps more accurately, allowed subsequent theorists to prefer the pursuit of private cupidity by equating it with the development of public policy. This is not only unfortunate, but also unnecessary. Although Berle and Means' The Modern Corporation forms the bedrock of the prevailing paradigm in corporate law and governance, it also contains some very suggestive materials from which to construct an alternative and more democratic way of proceeding which actually subverts and transforms the established model. In this essay, therefore, I want both to celebrate The Modern Corporation, but also to lament the enduring influence of its received understanding on corporate law scholarship and practice.

I'm a proud pretender, I faked it and sometimes I even got to the point where I made it. I wasn't born with the ability to learn a topic, or perform an action, I had a head start in nothing. What I did have was opportunity, from the start I was born into a stable family and stable country, these facts enabled me to be educated in a proper school, followed by a college (or 2) but no university.
I didn't really make the most of school and I think this was a little to do with a lack of maturity and some part was to do with the reading list required in formal education institutions. It wasn't that the resources were not valuable, I have read many of them since without needing to. It was more the ability to choose to read a book or study a topic, since leaving college I have read more per year than I did in my formative years.
Some of my friends and family consider me a voracious reader, but I don't feel like I read as much as people think I do – or maybe relative to my friends and family I do read a lot more. I love reading, I used to try to speed read and I had some success but frankly I didn't absorb the information nearly as well as normal reading. So I reverted to just reading normally, for the pleasure of consuming information at my own pace and taking the time to digest what I have learned and not worry about my looming mortality.
I am not a self made learner however, I have not done all of this by myself and it is only through standing on the shoulders of giants that I have known where to look and what to do and where to go next. This may be coming across as grandiose but it goes without saying that I am not exceptional. My point is that nothing is out of reach and you will have times where you feel like you are trailing well behind your peers and never going to cross the threshold that signifies your arrival. Nobody can say they have always been good at this or that, they were once a pretender learning their craft and the best of them were humble enough to admit to themselves when they needed to work on something and even more humble when they spoke with a peer and confided their want to improve, and the superiority of that peer as a key interest to help one improve.
Being humble is the key to being a great pretender, being good at something starts with being a great pretender.

SOME parents get tattoos of their children's names, birthdates or faces to show how much they love their offspring, but this father's tattoo is particularly sweet.
Alistair Campbell, from Taupo, New Zealand, got a cochlear implant tattooed onto his shaved head in support of his hearing-impaired daughter.
Charlotte, who wears two cochlear implants, laughed when she saw her dad's new ink and said it was "cool", reports the New Zealand Herald.
The six-year-old was fitted with her first implant two years ago, after doctors discovered she was deaf in her left ear. She has just had the second one put in.
"It has changed her life being given the gift of sound," Mr Campbell told Buzzfeed.
The implants have already dramatically affected her confidence levels. "She wouldn't talk to anybody [but now she's] pretty much a social butterfly," Mrs Campbell explained to the New Zealand Herald.
The diagnosis wasn't completely unexpected as Charlotte's mother, Anita Campbell, also had a cochlear implant, while her older brother Lewis, 8, has hearing aids.
The "cochlear implant" is Mr Campbell's first tattoo, and he wanted to get it so he could show his love and support for his daughter.
He shaved his head to get the artwork done, but said he would let it grow out again — unless Charlotte wanted to see it. "Hey, my hair can grow back," he said.
Mrs Campbell posted a photo of Alistair with his tattoo and Charlotte with her implant on Facebook, and it quickly went viral.
"The reactions have been overwhelming, mostly positive. Some negative comments have surfaced, they don't bother me, we're doing what is best for our daughter and our family," Mr Campbell told Buzzfeed.

The girls and I are pretty random sometimes. They were playing outside last week and we decided to have a picnic. It was really hot and short lived but we enjoyed it while it lasted. Poor Daisy was beside herself while she was chained up and the girls were eating.
Meanwhile, everyone is growing up like crazy. Just take a look at Livi and Daze.
The kiddos took a trip to Newhope with their daddy a couple of weeks ago. They ended up at the McBay Pond with some squirmy stinky fish. They talked about the trip for days. Makayla was a little freaked out by her slimy fish. I think they had a blast!
We are still busy with life in general (Luke everyone else in the world). I'm hoping some more posts make it in here soon.

We Are Not Vanishing details the accomplishments of Dr. Dorothy Height through interviews with Maya Angelou and Dick Gregory, among other other celebrities.
The first screening was fantastic, producer Joe O'Flynn said. It was really great to be in the audience, because when the credits came up and it said "Narrated by Bill Cosby,' there was a gasp.
The project was a labor of love for Mr. Wesson, a former commercial director for Procter & Gamble who recently founded his own production company. To send it off where it's going to be judged by people from HBO and so forth, it shows it wasn't just an internal love affair with the piece. Other people see the merit in it, too, he said.
Mr. Wesson credited P&G for backing the film financially, and praised the contributions of Mr. O'Flynn and writer-editor Lance Moody.
Mr. Wesson flew to the festival, which opened Wednesday and closes today, from Chicago where he has been shooting film for MTV's next season of The Real World.
The Urbanworld festival has grown into a leading showcase for films by and about African-Americans. Participants in panels and workshops this year include Ruby Dee, Phylicia Rashad,and Rosie Perez, and filmmakers John Singleton (Boyz N The Hood),Karyn Kusama (Girlfight), Diana Williams (Our Song) and Malcolm Lee (The Best Man).
Also showing at the festival as a work in progress is Jacked, from Ohio State University graduate Timothy Wayne Folsome and producers William and Kevin Hightower of Columbus, the same team behind the 1998 thriller An Invited Guest.
How big?: Giant-screen film fans may have been confused by a recent Enquirer story that referred to Imax screens as 10 times the size of those in conventional theaters.
Not so. The Imax Corp. calculates the image-capturing area of its 70mm film frame as roughly 10 times that of regular 35mm film. The theater screen at, for instance, the soon-to-open Firstar Imax Theater at Newport on the Levee, is about twice as wide and three times as high as a 40-foot-by-20-foot conventional screen.
First-time features: On the heels of Saturday's public debut of Matthew J. Freudenberg's locally made feature, A Generation Lost, at Anderson High School, another homegrown movie has reached the finish line.
Avenging Disco Vampires, a campy zero-budget thriller created on a non-existent budget by Daniel Frazier and several Northern Kentucky University classmates, has been completed. After a private screening for cast and crew this month, the movie will be pitched to distributors. A public screening is planned for the fall.
For a peek behind the scenes, visit www.discovampires.com.
Web alert: Dedicated movie buffs have long relied on the Internet Movie Database us.imdb.com for comprehensive online information about new, old and yet-to-be-made films, from production credits to box-office returns.
Now, a group of California film school graduates have launched an even more microscopic site, one that breaks movies down into key scenes at the Movie Scene, www.themoviescene.com.
The site organizes movies by basic categories cast, director, writer, genre, year, etc. then adds descriptions of important moments. Users are invited to write their own reviews, rate and discuss the best scenes, as in a current discussion about Planet of the Apes. (The apes' mass attack on the escaping humans is the top vote-getter right now.)
The site also classifies movies according to its elements, so users can, for instance, search for all movies involving falsely accused heroes or mistaken identities, for example.

text: americancrew 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2011 Hi Everyone, Are there anyone experiencing this annoying bug, which my phone and my wife's nexus s have been experiencing quite often. When there is an incoming call, I can slide the slider at the lock screen to the left or to the right to end a call or accept a call, respectively. But after doing either of these two actions, our nexus s doesn't like to end the call or pick up the call at all. It just keeps on ringing. The slider does not appear again until I press the power off to turn of the screen. I can then slide the slider at the lock screen to the left or to the right to end a call or accept a call, respectively, again. However, the call will keep on ringing again until the other party hangs up. We are both at version 2.3.2 We both have wifi turned on Mine has bt on, but she has her bt off Both are rooted, mine started experiencing the bug before I upgraded it to the r10 (I stayed at r3) two days ago. My wife's phone is rooted but is still using the native rom. Frequency of bug: very often Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More Thoughts On The Generation Gap
In my July 1 entry, I mentioned a news article that tells us that the generation gap is wider than at any point in American history…including 1969, when that gap was exposed by the rapid-fire cultural changes during those days. While I think about pop culture a lot, I'm really more concerned with how that generation gap affects my job as a pastor at a church. I mentioned that because I'm in youth ministry I spend a lot of time with members of the (let's say, 3. Maybe 4.) generations represented in our church.
So, one random thought about the effects of the gap as it relates to my church:
I don't think we'll see any sort of increase in protests or mass gatherings to highlight issues or be the spark for change. From my vantage point, the young people in the '60's believed–really, truly believed–they were in a position to right the wrongs of the big picture of society. Race relations. Wars. Government policy. There were organized protests and marches and the like to create public awareness and highlight the issues and attempt to spur change in the various areas of society. Well, a couple of differences in this group of teenagers as I work with them every day lead me to believe you won't see cultural upheaval from this bunch. First of all, they don't think in terms of changing the world but rather in terms of doing whatever I can–big or small, but mostly small–to make my little corner of the world better. Their parents duly noted that all those protests really didn't revolutionize society much so now the kids we raised think more in terms of making one family's life a little better, or our group's ability to make 15 families Christmas a little better or that homeless organization's day a little better. They don't view societal change as much of a possibility.
The second reason they don't protest much is because their institutions (think public schools) are regimented and structured in such a way that any type of deviation or protest will result in discipline that in some way harshly punishes the individuals involved–including expulsion.
Finally, they've been trained by their parents to be good-busy so you can achieve achieve achieve. It's hard to organize a protest when you know you'll be kicked out of school or off the team which will crush your resume thereby killing your chance to get into a good college. It's also hard to truly serve an organization passionately when most of their opportunities to make their corner of the world a better place are mandated by school leadership in the form of required service hours. Lastly, when you're in school from 8:45am to 4:10pm, followed by 3 hours of band practice, Bible study and homework that can last a couple of hours, throwing in that grass-roots Tea Party Rally Against Taxes is the throwaway of all your options.
If this is true, what's the response by youth pastors/pastors? What I'm learning is that we need to cut back on the methods of youth ministry that are programmatic and/or entertainment based to bring in kids. I've discovered that most Christian kids are pretty much church-hopping with each other anyway on that stuff (in other words, if your youth group is going to the Big Area Water Park this week, I'll go, too, with my friends from that youth group. Next week, when my youth group has a movie night with pizza, all my friends will come with me to that.–The same things happens with parents enrolling their children in 6 different Vacation Bible Schools in the area. We're really not reaching out to the community all that much, simply providing a quality program for Christian parents. This ain't all bad, but let's see if for what it is. I mean, families that left our church years ago enrolled their kids in VBS and it was nice to visit and get caught up, but they're happy at their current church.)
What we need to be doing is finding service projects and mission trips that allow students to serve because they love Christ and the people that He loves. Usually, this doesn't have many, if any, tangible benefits to the individuals going. This is why I really liked our church's recent mission trip to Mississippi. We partnered with a government agency, and every now and then we'd serve truly needy folks. But some days, you'd wind up working for a system manipulator getting their deck washed and stained with your tax dollars. They learned from that, got frustrated by that, served through that, etc. Sure, the kids had fun relaxing together each night and certainly had a lot of laughs and bonding time, etc. But most of the trip was very hard work in extreme conditions, which isn't what you really hear about. Kind of like stories from when we were in college. The fraternity stories get a lot of play and are entertaining and nobody wants to hear about the 30 hours of work you put into writing that paper.
How does this affect the older generation? Programming is dead. What "worked" for us that came through the Golden Age of Youth Ministry has come of age in the church at-large as we move into leadership positions in churches. We grew up in a world where you could put the Super Bowl on a big screen (well, what passed for big back then, anyway) and give out pizza and tell everybody, "Invite your friends to our Super Bowl watching party here at the church!" And we would. We'd have teaching times with cool lighting and maybe even a smoke machine and use video clips from movies on the big screen to highlight the lesson…and now many church services look just like old youth group meetings from the mid-1980's. Coffee shops in church buildings popped up. Having concerts to "bring your friends" under the guise of "outreach" is dead. Officially. You didn't hear it first here, but you heard it reiterated here. Giving away an Xbox 360 to whoever brings the most friends on "pack the pew" Sunday is long-gone. Nobody brings friends to church because there is a coffee cafe available.
In other words, the church needs to get back to loving the people that Christ loves in a genuine manner. Not viewing them as evangelistic "targets" to seek and "save," but love people anyway expecting nothing in return. Simply be salt and light in areas where we're already place (on teams, in jobs, with families, etc.) and love people. If you love people, you'll see needs. If you see needs of people you love, you'll find creative and innovative and meaningful ways to serve.
And, if you're asking me, that works in concentric circles of influence. We need to serve and love those in our community. Sure, you can haul off to Africa or Haiti or Mississippi, too…and we should. But this generation thinks in smaller terms with more limited time-frames. With a more limited schedule to serve people and families, we should be using those times not to get together and entertain ourselves, but rather be finding ways to serve and love and make various little corners of the world a little bit more reflective of Christ's love.
So, patrons, your thoughts?
Next entry on this topic: The role of Scripture/classes/worship services in developing that love & service attitude…as it plays out in how the previous generation gleans information and this one does.

Chicago trip update #2
My baby girl is really starting to grow up. The girl can drive me crazy with her smart mouth but at the same time I am enjoying watching her slowly develop into her own and realizing that she's growing up.
She told me this Saturday that this trip was going to change her life because it'll be her first time on an airplane, something she is really scared to do, and that she knows that is a big hurdle for her to get over her fear of flying. She knows that it is a step toward being ready for any future airplane trips we might take. That sounded so "grown up" to me and it was all I could do not to break down crying. I think this trip is going to change my life too.

A life-changing trip sounds wonderful for both of you.
I know what you mean about your girl growing up before your eyes. I am experiencing that with my 10-year-old daughter as well. It's bittersweet, isn't it?

I'm still here! Really! I've been working double shifts this week and my schedule is not normal so I haven't had as much time to blog lately. I have been filling in for Susan on The Morning Show from 5am-9am and then back again in my regular slot on the afternoon show from 4pm-7pm. It's fun filling in for Susan, but it's also pretty tiring.
In the meantime I've been going home in between the two shoes and napping, hanging out with my mom, and I even did a little more shopping. It's been nice, the work schedule has actually given me more time to spend with my mom who is still visiting from Illinois. She's taught me how to make homemade bread (no breadmaker involved), she has organized every single closet and drawer in my house, and we bought our first piece of furniture in the nursery!
We have 6 months to go for the baby, but are getting everything in my house organized and in "ship-shape" so we'll be ready for baby!
More later!
Love ya!

I kinda want to quit now.
I'm too old for Fantage. I'm almost a teen. Maybe Princess MooMoo or Casey can keep doing it, but I have competitive (VERY) skating and it's getting too hard and complicated. Just like bliss's blog, I'll just be admin, but I will have workers to keep the blog alive.
What do you think? I REALLY am too old for Fantage.
Just like Foreverball11, I can't stand it anymore. Blogging about a virtual world that is for… not "babies," but yeah…
I'll stay on http://therandomstar.wordpress.com/ though with Foreverball though! You can see me post over there.
I might quit when Foreverball is quitting, or a BIT later. Maybe Halloween or Thanksgiving? I don't know.
I'd really rather be blogging about Minecraft rather than Fantage. I'll post more later, bye!

Elizabeth Gilbert: Success, failure and the drive to keep creating
September 10, 2014
TED video
Elizabeth Gilbert was once an "unpublished diner waitress," devastated by rejection letters. And yet, in the wake of the success of 'Eat, Pray, Love,' she found herself identifying strongly with her former self. With beautiful insight, Gilbert reflects on why success can be as disorienting as failure and offers a simple — though hard — way to carry on, regardless of outcomes.
The author of 'Eat, Pray, Love,' Elizabeth Gilbert has thought long and hard about some big topics. Her fascinations: genius, creativity and how we get in our own way when it comes to both.

Moscow expects Washington to participate as an observer in the meeting on Syria scheduled to be held in Kazakhstan's capital of Astana on July 4-5, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov said on Tuesday.
"The United States has been participating as an observer, so we hope they will come this time too," the Russian diplomat said.
All participants in the previous Astana meetings on Syria have been invited to take part in the next round of talks, he said. According to him, in particular, the armed Syrian opposition has been invited but it is up to its leaders to make the final decision.
"Kazakhstan has been sending out invitations," the Russian diplomat said when asked about the armed opposition's participation. "The parties invited to the meeting are the same that participated in the previous rounds. Whether they will come or not depends on their willingness to take part in the process of resolving the Syrian crisis," Gatilov added.
The Russian deputy foreign minister confirmed that the next Astana meeting on Syria was scheduled to be held on July 4-5. "The intra-Syrian talks in Geneva will start after the Astana meeting," he added.
The Kazakh Foreign Ministry said earlier that a high-level meeting on settling the situation in Syria would be held in Astana on July 4-5. The guarantor countries – Russia, Iran and Turkey – are expected to consider documents concerning various aspects of the Syrian de-escalation zones, as well as discuss steps which need to be taken to ensure unhindered humanitarian access and restore infrastructure facilities.
According to Kazakhstan's First Deputy Foreign Minister Mukhtar Tleuberdi, Jordan, the United States and the United Nations, who participated in the previous meeting as observers, have been sent invitations.

trans-2-Aminocyclohexanol-based lipids as pH-sensitive conformational switches in liposomes for drug delivery244th National Meeting and Exposition of American Chemical Society (ACS)
Document TypeConference Presentation
OrganizationAmerican Chemical Society (ACS)
LocationPhiladelphia, PA
Conference DatesAugust 19-23, 2012
Date of Presentation8-21-2012
AbstractWe developed a novel strategy to render liposomes pH-sensitive: a protonation-induced conformational switch of lipid tails, using trans-2-aminocyclohexanol moiety (TACH) as a molecular trigger. Amino and hydroxy groups of a TACH-lipid are in axial positions at pH 7.4 while both lipidic groups COOCnH(2n+1) adopt equatorial positions (A ). At lower pH relevant to many physiological/pathological scenarios, the amine nitrogen is protonated to form a strong hydrogen bond with the hydroxy group, forcing both groups into equatorial position. Such switch is mechanically transmitted via the conformational flip of the ring to turn both ester groups into axial position (B H+), thereby drastically increasing the spatial separation of the lipid tails. In lipid membranes, TACH-lipids of this type produce liposomes with extraordinary characteristics: an instant release of their cargo in response to a weakly acidic medium combined with high stability in storage and in serum.

I love this girl. I've know her for a few years casually and then we shared an epic concert experience this past Halloween and I can't get over her. Besides her charm, undeniably good looks and sweet and upbeat disposition, I've noticed one thing about her above all else...the girl is OBSESSED with animal print.
The first time I really hung out with her was in Asheville for Moogfest and she rocked a cheetah costume for Halloween. I thought it was a costume but apparently it's a way of life. I ran into her quite often after the concert around Wilmington and every time I spotted spots. A fabulous faux fur leopard jacket, a tight cheetah print mini dress, a chic shirt spotted with jaguar print... I started to get the picture. And Minela cleared it all up for me when I sat down with her last night at the CORPUS: A Fashion Show dress rehearsal. She is, after all, undeniably obsessed with animal print. Right on! I'm all for it just so it's faux fur, which she says all her designs from Minela Exotics are 100% cruelty free and celebrate the beauty and luxury that comes from wearing animal print while recognizing and respecting animal rights.
Minela got into designing because she is TINY; she was fed up with not finding fashions in her size. They were either non-existent or sold out at places like Forever 21. So, she took charge and made her own clothes... inventive. She has been designing for about 7 months and hopes to some day see her clothes hanging in a store but for now she is focusing on PA school and designing for a hobby.. and so she has something to wear. Actually, she was wearing a skirt she had designed while I was interviewing her. She says she makes the majority of her wardrobe. It's like second nature by now, a piece of cake, she says. Minela even offered to whip me something up for the show THIS FRIDAY AT SPUTNIK 8PM, there is her sweet disposition showing!
Her line is focused on celebrating and embracing the beauty of a womans body. Curves, lines, bumps and all. "Have fun with it!" she says. Don't conform. She took the initiative to just make her own wardrobe when she wasn't happy with what the stores were coming out with and came out with a fresh line that is sexy, fun and wearable on the runway and off. I'll take that skirt please, hell, I bet I look fierce in cheetah.

I am reposting this because?
It is Christmas.
And you may run out of innovative holiday decorating ideas?
Sandra Lee to the rescue!
Semi Homemade and all that.
And The Food Network lush.
I happened to catch her on the stair stepper this week.
She was making a fabulous Christmas meal…
And of course the accompanying tablescape.
That girl loves herself a tablescape.
And she is so matchy matchy
You know what I mean?
Like the table matches the cocktail
matches the food color
matches her clothes
matches the cocktail.
And then the tree.
Sandy made a special Christmas tree.
The cocktail tree.
I am serious.
Totally serious.
The tree was decorated with cocktail glasses – ALL over it.
From top to bottom.
Even the nutcracker had his own special cocktail.
What happened?
I mean what prompted this?
Was she just sitting around drinking?
Too intoxicated to get up and put her drink away.
So she threw it in the Christmas tree.
And Wham!
Sandy thinks well that is just a damn fine idea for a Christmas tree.
Because nothing says Happy Birthday Jesus…
like a cocktail Christmas tree.
Maybe next year we will take it back to the trailer park with a beer can tree.
I't's a must see.
It just is.
And if you have 500 wine glasses…
you can whip this tree up in nothing flat.

CHICAGO, IL - OCTOBER 13: A sign hangs above the entrance of a GAP store on October 13, 2011 in Chicago, Illinois. Gap Inc. plans to reduce the number of Gap brand stores to 700 in North America, closing roughly one-third of their existing stores by the end of 2013. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images)A sign hangs above the entrance of a GAP store in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images)
CHICAGO (CBS) – An Evanston store is taking on a clothing giant, accusing the Gap of swiping one of its designs.
In a lawsuit filed in federal court in Chicago Friday, Fooey, Inc claims that the Gap started selling a shirt two years ago featuring a design similar to one on a polo shirt Fooey sold in its store in 2005.
LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio's Nick Young Reports
The suit says the shirt's design, with a paper airplane on the front and instructions on how to make a paper airplane on the back was copyrighted this year.
The suit seeks an unspecified amount of money along with attorney's fees.
So far, no comment from the Gap.

The latest on a potential trade by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis comes from Peter King.
He reports that the Jets now might be willing to take draft picks for 2014, instead of this year, as compensation. In the scenario King describes, the Bucs would ship their first- and second-round picks in 2014 to New York. Earlier reports had indicated the compensation the Jets wanted included Tampa Bay's first-round pick (No. 13 overall) this year and perhaps a third-round pick next year.
But the Bucs are hesitant to give up this year's first-round draft pick and I don't blame them. Tampa Bay has the upper hand in this process because it doesn't seem like any other team is willing to trade for Revis and give him a long-term contract.
The Bucs have the cap room to work a deal with Revis. They also have a need at cornerback and, even though he's coming off a knee injury, Revis might be the best in the game.
But would it be prudent for the Bucs, who like to talk about how they build through the draft, to give up their top two picks in 2014?
In days of old, like five years ago, that kind of move would have been viewed as mortgaging the future. But the NFL changes quickly and this might not be a bad deal for the Bucs.
In the modern climate of the NFL, it's fair to say that general manager Mark Dominik needs to win this year. Heck, it might even be fair to say that coach Greg Schiano needs to win in his second year because this team hasn't won a postseason game in over a decade.
If everything clicks for Tampa Bay, the Jets might be inheriting a 2014 first-round pick that's in the 20s, maybe even the 30s. If everything doesn't click, some new general manager (and maybe even a new head coach) would have to deal with the problem of not having first- or second-round picks in 2014.

I sat down to reinforce the corners of my accordion case last night, but the best material I had to work with was cheap silver duct tape. It really needed help — if I didn't do anything, the case probably wouldn't survive the week. Silver duct tape around all the corners looked pretty tacky, but I think I made it work.
What do you think?

It was surprising to see GLD in such a state. Somewhat of an unpleasant surprise, if Fiyori was honest with herself, but a welcomed situation regardless. Funny how these things worked.
[[Fiyori Senay, continued from Zum Glueck In Die Zukunft II]]
Fiyori leaned against the wall, one foot standing firmly on the ground while she had lifted the other to scratch her ankles. She heard the other girl right next to her mouth Fiyori's name, but she didn't react to that. Fiyori stared into the unclear and dark distance of the room, before finally mustering GLD's leg. It was then that she made noise. Fiyori chuckled softly.
Then, silence for even more seconds.
Georgia Lee continued to struggle, not particularly with standing up, or holding into the wall or something, but with keeping herself alive. Tough situation to start a conversation, but Fiyori had to talk about some shit one way or the other.
"Who? ...I mean, who wounded you?"
Version 7
Version 6
Version 5
My Credentials
|Apr 27 2017, 12:32 AM Post #2
Blair? Alright then. Fiyori was positively flabbergasted, but she could accept the answer for the moment. To see GLD being injured like this wasn't easy, not because Fiyori cared about the girl, but because it was such a crass contradiction of Fiyori's world view. Still, once they start making Thank-you cards for killing people you didn't like, Blair ought to get one. A nice case of chocolate and maybe wine too.
Fiyori chuckled again. Georgia Lee's misery was enjoyable regardless of anything else, and that was what mattered.
Aside from that, Fiyori was still curious. It had already confounded her to see Georgia Lee leave the cafeteria, but Fiyori felt asking her about this would be futile. Georgia Lee wasn't exactly the person you'd trust to have a coherent grasp on her own memory.
"Well, I am glad I got to see you anyway. There's something I meant to tell you."
She scratched the corners of her mouth. Dirt, dried blood and saliva had been collected over the days. It didn't annoy her, but she wanted to make sure her lips could move as free as possible.
"Actually, try to guess first, if you still can:
Why, Georgia Lee, do I hate you so?"
|Apr 27 2017, 11:03 AM Post #3
She shook her head. It was the only thing that she could do. For a brief moment a vision of a different future appeared before Fiyori. A world in which Fiyori pulled out the gun she had, pressed Georgia Lee against the wall and execute her with one shot. It would end her suffering before it was due to end, and worse yet, such an action would not express the 'truth' of her feelings.
It got a further chuckle out of her anyway. She leaned in.
"Close but no cigar. You cannot act not, you know?"
Fiyori waited for a few moments more. An opportunity for Georgia Lee to take in what she said. What would come next, Fiyori knew, would be a mouthful.
"As you might have guessed, my plans after graduation were more or less to just kill myself. And yet, despite having ample opportunity to get rid of my own life I am still here.
...because of you."
Fiyori cracked her knuckles. Thought a bit about what came next.
|Apr 27 2017, 11:27 AM Post #4
"Why? Good question, to be honest."
Fiyori met her former partner's eyes, or at least she tried the best she could do in the dark.
"My life is futile. I can change no thing, and I derive no pleasure. At least, that was my thinking. Being stuck with you in the library... and I guess, hearing the names on the announcements and the screams in the distance changed something.
All of a sudden, I felt a desire. I wanted to go out. I wanted to protect my friends and kill my enemies. I wanted to do something to change the world to my liking, but when I finally felt like taking action... Some cuntface held my goddamm glasses."
Fiyori stepped closer, felt her forehead colliding softly against GLD's scalp.
"So that's more or less why I stormed out of the library back then. I was pissed at you for robbing me of my agency. I started to craft an image of you. The image of a mighty demon I'd have to slay. And an image of me, a hero to save her friends.
I was proven foolish on both points."
|Apr 27 2017, 12:51 PM Post #5
Oh, the cafeteria? That was worrying, in it's own kind, but a kind to be pondered later one way or the other. More pressing issues existed, and they did so quite literally. GLD fell, or she would have fallen, and slumped against Fiyori.
Fiyori grasped her foe's hair, wrapped the other around the smaller girl's back.
"Good reasons, huh? Yea, you had your reasons. I guess that's a way of seeing it."
"The point I am trying to make here is, that I have none. All that hostility, back in Kingman and what we have here, none of that is grounded in logic.
I have no reason to hate you.
And yet I do."
Fiyori started combing through Georgia Lee's hair. She smelled terrible. Or so Fiyori would have guessed. She didn't know. But she did knew one thing, and that was that she was - for once and one time only - truly content. To speak out the truth was liberating. She would not have thought it.
"Huh... hahaha, pretty nice to talk about your feelings for once. Don't you agree?"
|Apr 27 2017, 01:20 PM Post #6
It took Fiyori a few moments to realize.
"I cannot believe this. Here I am, pouring out my heart all over you and you just fucking die on me."
She loosened her grip on GLD and instead shoved her away. The body made a flat pounding sound as it hit the ground.
