Q&A: District 9's Sharlto Copley
Get used to the name Sharlto Copley. (Don't worry, it took even him a while.) The Cape Town native never expected to be in pictures, but after his old friend Neill Blomkamp cast him in his gritty alien movie, District 9, on the advice of producer Peter Jackson, Copley plans to do a lot more acting—and his three new agents at William Morris Endeavor should be able to make it happen. Fresh off his triumph at Comic-Con the ebullient actor talked to me about filming guerilla-style in the slums of Johannesburg, acting opposite non-existent aliens, and getting used to Hollywood.
How have you enjoyed this crazy adventure?
I love it, I got to say it's very surreal, this part. Making the movie I actually felt so comfortable and natural doing that even though it was my first acting part and all of that, you know other people have…
You had to get a SAG card for this, right?
No, no, no, no. We shot in South Africa. I don't even know properly what a SAG card is. I know it's the Screen Actor's Guild but other than that, I'm still learning. So yeah, this [promotional] part has been crazy. Just seeing the response to the film really turns your reality upside down. And seeing the kind of support that a studio, Sony for example, is giving… When you're just in that studio system and that Hollywood machine gets behind something, it's quite awe-inspiring just to see the scale of everything and the scale of the United States and the scale of this whole North American tour, as such. It's just incredible how many interviews you have to do before you're even just a dent in the culture. [Laughs]
Well you'll get there. Is this your first time to the States?
No, no, no. I've been to Canada and the states several times.
And for what purpose?
Nine times out of 10 it was for work. We were involved in a television station that Warner Brothers was a partner with. We used to come for branding conventions.
What were you doing when you hired [District 9 director] Neill Blomkamp to work for you? Neill was telling me you guys were very entrepreneurial when you were young.
Yeah, yeah, I started a production company immediately out of school. I mean that really was a joke, hiring Neill, because he was still in high school. I didn't actually hire him, but I did get him to do some stuff for nothing, which I actually just paid him a little bit of money for the other day! [Laughs] He had this incredible talent in animation, just incredible, and just doing stuff that was inspiring me even at his young age. At that point, I was working towards starting a TV station, which then happened 4 years later. We were part of a team of about seven or eight key people that set a channel up in South Africa.
And what's happening with that now?
It's still going. It's called ETV. But a year into it, we had a dispute with one of the shareholders. Warner Brothers left, and we carried on with other things and other businesses.
Ok, so now that you're an actor, now that you're the Marlon Brando of Comic-con, what's going to happen? Are you going to do more acting?
I would love to do more acting, I really would love to do it, particularly character acting. I'm a character type of actor, I love situations where I've got a bit of room to improvise on the character. I improvised completely with District 9. But that's really unusual, so I'm just open right now to see what's out there.
Neill said it was a pretty grueling shoot in terms of the location, in the shanties. Can you tell me a little bit about that?
The process of acting in the film often felt like we were just making a documentary about something that was actually happening. The location [Johannesburg] has got such a history in the context of apartheid South Africa, so you could so easily jump into the emotional turmoil of the character. There was no green screen, no blue screen in the process and I really appreciated that. And I really appreciated the way that the physical environment as well as the prosthetics and things that were grafted on me later informed where this character was going to go.
In the shacks, when you're with the humanoid aliens referred to as prawns, who were you actually acting opposite?
Jason Cope. He's an amazing actor, friend of both Neill and I that had worked with us on the initial Alive in Joburg short. He's a great improviser as well, so him and I would be able to improvise our scenes together. He was in a gray suit—they would take him out afterwards and put the CG alien in his place. And then, on most of the action scenes, there was nothing there at all and I had again a lot of freedom to imagine the alien wherever I'd want to look. Neill would be watching the whole time and only step in if he felt like, 'Ok no, we didn't have enough space to put it in,' or, 'We need a different frame for the spaceship,' or whatever the case might be. But again, it was all just very, very loose.
How many days did it take to shoot it?
I think in the end it was like 75 days or something like that, with all of the pickup shots.
It looks like you were really in that world. It didn't look fake at all.
Yeah it really was. All the trash was real and those shacks that we ended up inheriting, people had lived in them. A couple of them were actually built on a landfill, on 25 years of trash, so when you dug into the ground as well—there's a scene where we go into the trap door inside the alien's shack—you go into that hole and it's just layers of trash from different eras. It's almost like trying to work out the age of a tree, you know you've got these layers of trash from different eras. So it was really filthy and I think what doesn't come across in the film is the smell of the place and what it was like to breathe the air, particularly at night. We were shooting in winter—it's very hot in the day and then it gets freezing at night and people are burning anything they can to stay warm, they're burning rubber tires, they're burning plastic bags, so the level of toxicity in the air is ridiculous.
What's the best pronunciation of your name that you've gotten so far in the states?
The strangest is probably 'Sharito.' I think they must have misread the 'l' as an 'i' or something. That's what I think.
And where does your name come from?
I don't know. I'm trying to find out, asking anybody that might have any information for me. I've come across a Sharlto-Douglas, which is a double-barreled Irish last name. I'm not Irish so it doesn't come from there. My mom heard it on a radio play once and named me that. I hated my name as a child because it was so difficult to pronounce and so unusual. I wanted to be called something normal like Mike, you know? But thank God I didn't change my name and ended up loving my name. It's pretty out there.
What's it like being on the Sony gravy train of…
Signing things to your room.
What did you say?
Signing things to the room. I'm still learning how that process goes. The third day after I got here I'm eating my per diem meal all nicely and I'm like, 'Ok I've just got enough for this meal, and then that's it.' and I get to San Diego [for Comic-Con] and I'm like, 'Ok I've got to pay my bill.' And they're like, 'No, you don't pay this. Sony pays this.' I was like, 'What?' They're like, 'No, Sony pays. When you sign it to your room, they pay.' I'm like, 'What do you mean? Like how? What's the budget?' They're like, 'No, whatever you want just sign it to your room.' It's really difficult, it's a very different world you know from the slum environment as well. And it's hard to forget that. I've obviously lived in South Africa around that sort of thing, but spending the amount of time we did there, and making friends with the local people, and they're watching you make the film, and then you're going back to a five-star hotel in South Africa and knowing that people live like that… It's like a million miles away.
You've lived in South Africa your whole life?
Yeah, yeah.
Neill talked about how apartheid really affected him as a child, how he didn't know that he was just absorbing it and only really felt its impact when he left, in the late 90s. When you see the movie, and its obvious political overtones, what kind of impression does it make on you?
Perhaps my own personal take on it is a bit more of a proud one, in the sense that I'm proud to be a white South African who was part of the transition. Just as I was getting out of school, I was able to vote for democratic system. And I'm proud of being able to play an Afrikaans white guy who actually has a redemptive quality in the movie and is not just the bad guy again. I think people sort of forgot very quickly that there was a minority group of white people, mostly Afrikaans, mostly very conservative, who had complete and utter control of the country and who, in the end—admittedly because of pressure, sanctions, and whatever, but…—a group that really had complete dominance of the place, voluntarily voted and said, 'We want a democratic system and we will be prepared to be ruled by a black majority.' And I think that is an evolutionary step. I'm proud of standing up for those values. I think the film deals mostly with the sort of negative side of the metaphor, if you will, but does, in my view, include that positive part and that's what I'm happy about with the film.
How do you think it will be received in South Africa?
I really don't know. Amongst the young people probably exactly the same as it'll be received everywhere else in the world, to be honest. But amongst the older people who sort of had exposure to apartheid they might, it might be more of an emotional thing and a little bit more difficult to handle emotionally. But I'll wait and see.
Do you think you and Neill will collaborate again? The movie begs for a sequel although I know it's too early to tell right now.
I would love to do it. I know Neill would as well. I think I've got a lot more to offer with that character. But I think it would be critical to me that Neill was driving it because I think with these franchise things they can easily just turn into a director-for-hire franchise: just swap the actor out and whatever. And I think there's a uniqueness to this film and I think we would only do another one if we really felt like, 'Hey, we can do something again that's going to live up to this.'

The mother of the groom speech is sought after by everyone in the occasion. The daughter-in-law and mother-in-law's relationship is known for its controversial nature. The speech has to be given in such a way that everyone should enjoy it and talk about. It has to avoid controversy and a good start is more than vital. So, when you are about to make the mother of groom speech there are certain points which you should be very careful about. Always take some extra effort to avoid these mistakes!
5 Tips for a Great Mother of the Groom Speech1. Stop hogging the limelight: - Weddings are big days and memorable moments for the bride and the groom. It's their special day and you shouldn't take anything away from them. Dress up appropriately. You should look pretty but there should be no sign of over dressing or going over the top.
2. Don't talk about yourself: - Talking about the past is good but if you go on and on about yourself, it will become monotonous. There is an entire generation of differences between your way of life and the newly married ones. Quoting an event or two from the past will give it a family bonding but then you need to find the perfect balance.

2 days to go, candidates make too tall promises
With campaigning entering its last lap, voters will seal the fate of 22 candidates fighting elections in this constituency on April 30. And the candidates are leaving nothing to chance, promising everything under the sky.
While the Congress candidate is largely banking on the legacy of his grandfather former chief minister Beant Singh, Independent candidate Simarjit Singh Bains is all out to woo SC/ST and OBC community. SAD candidate Manpreet Singh Ayali is busy asking for votes in the name of BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi and making promises for industry.
Newsline studies the details of manifestos released by the four main candidates:
'ACCOUNTABLE' and a 24×7 MP
Stressing the accountability factor, Simarjit Singh Bains is trying to project himself as a 24×7 MP. He has also mentioned timings for which he will be available to meet people, five hours each in the morning and in the evening. He promises to take up in the Lok Sabha the issue of heavy toll tax in Punjab and reduction in petrol prices. Reduction in prices of construction material (sand, bricks) and ban on property tax and regularisation charges are also mentioned.
Promises for SC/ST/OBC community include electricity bill exemption like farmers, 50% exemption on stamp duty and no fee for approval of maps. He also promises delivery of shagun scheme cheque by the councillor personally a day before the marriage of poor girls. Suvidha centres in every ward and village which will also facilitate making new passports is one tall promise. He also promises VAT exemption on marriage halls, hotels and dhabas.
'IN GOOD BOOKS of GANDHIS'
Congress candidate Ravneet Singh Bittu in his manifesto claims that he is "carrying forward family legacy of service to society" and is "proud of being in good books of Sonia and Rahul Gandhi". According to him, he should be next MP because he is a local and the youngest MP from Punjab. He promises to complete the pending projects of Manish Tewari and construction of flyovers to solve the traffic problem. He promises a new hospital on the lines of AIIMS and an engineering college (IIT) along with an increase in the budget of PAU and GADVASU. Special incentives for cycle, dyeing and hosiery industry are also promised. Proper cow sheds throughout Ludhiana and housing scheme for every slum dweller come as old wine in a new bottle.
AYALI PROMISES more 'POLICE SENSITIVITY'
SAD-BJP candidate Manpreet Singh Ayali claims that he will make optimum use of MPLAD funds and an MP office will be opened in the secretariat for people where staff will be available six days a week. A special panel to de-congest traffic and cleaning of Buddha Nullah is what he terms his "vision for Ludhiana". A 24×7 helpline to lodge complaints against corruption will be opened, as per his manifesto.
Uplifting continued…

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Mia, a Bedford Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Bedford, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Bedford.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Bedford already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Bedford breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Bedford paves the way for another one to be saved.

Julie Otsuka's long awaited follow-up to When the Emperor Was Divine ("To watch Emperor catching on with teachers and students in vast numbers is to grasp what must have happened at the outset for novels like Lord of the Flies and To Kill a Mockingbird" —The New York Times) is a tour de force of economy and precision, a novel that tells the story of a group of young women brought over from Japan to San Francisco as 'picture brides' nearly a century ago.
In eight incantatory sections, The Buddha in the Attic traces their extraordinary lives, from their arduous journey by boat, where they exchange photographs of their husbands, imagining uncertain futures in an unknown land; to their arrival in San Francisco and their tremulous first nights as new wives; to their backbreaking work picking fruit in the fields and scrubbing the floors of white women; to their struggles to master a new language and a new culture; to their experiences in childbirth, and then as mothers, raising children who will ultimately reject their heritage and their history; to the deracinating arrival of war.
In language that has the force and the fury of poetry, Julie Otsuka has written a singularly spellbinding novel about the American dream.
"A delicate, heartbreaking portrait . . . beautifully rendered . . . Otsuka's prose is precise and rich with imagery. Readers will be . . . hopelessly engaged and will finish this exceptional book profoundly moved." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Haunting and intimate . . . Otsuka tracts the grace and strength at the core of immigrant (and female) survival and, with exquisite care, makes us rethink the heartbreak of eternal hope." —Susanna Sonnenberg, More

Last week we received a call from a potential licensee. After setting out our standard terms, they commented that they'd rather get our solution from a (name withheld) digital signage company that was bundling LocaModa for free. Problem was the digital signage company in question did not have a license to resell or sub-license LocaModa. We had never even spoken to them!
We visited the rogue company's website and there was the LocaModa logo as part of their solution! We called them directly and asked them if they could supply a LocaModa-enabled solution. Of course they couldn't. Let's just say, a conversation ensued and they've now ceased and desisted and removed our logo and fictitious claims from their site.
Social + Mobile + Local is hot. That means there are a lot of gold diggers out there. The good news is there is gold in them there hills – the bad news is some of it is fool's gold.
Our industry is far too embryonic to turn a blind eye to shysters that damage our reputation and can harm the market. We must encourage best practices that foster trust with buyers (advertisers, networks and/or venues). To that end, regarding what happened to LocaModa, I suggest:
Don't only evaluate a DOOH solution technically and commercially – check it's legally sound.
It might not be your first question, but before agreeing to a solution that will inevitably cost you and your business time and money, you must confirm that your supplier has licenses and/or patents and will stand behind any potential infringement issues that could close your system down.
The reputational and operational impact of IP owners shutting down infringing systems could be huge. A license agreement should make it clear that the supplier has appropriate rights to all the technology they are licensing, in which case, you should expect them to stand behind any potential costs of defending the IP they claim is theirs.

One Response to "Legally DOOH"
Richard Lebovitz Says:
July 21st, 2011 at 5:53 am
I don't know if people realize how important your post is, but with so much product confusion already in the marketplace, the last thing digital signage newcomers need to deal with is the question of legality regarding the software and apps they purchase. DSE recently conducted an independent study of digital signage users in which a common theme was "The industry is intimidating. People…don't know where to begin." Thanks for bringing this issue to light.

Mother of five Dislandys Acosta keeps order in her house by laying down the law. Including ones that govern bedtime.
"It's time to wind down and get ready for bed. And this is already bath taken, stories read and everything is already done. Then by 9:00 it's light out," says Acosta.
Developing proper sleep habits does more than create a happy home - doctors now believe too little sleep affects kids health and weight.
"It's so interesting about sleep and weight. There's certainly been a statistical correlation. That overweight children are more likely to have less than what would be the optimal sleep time for their age," says Dr. Nancy Witham, who is a pediatrician for Lee Memorial Health System.
Most at risk are little kids between 1 and 3 years old, they should get between 12 and 14 hours of shuteye. Studies find that those who frequently deprived are more likely to be obese by the age of 7.
"So as the parent, if you think you're putting your child to bed for what should be a reasonable amount of time but that child is sleepier than what you would expect, that's really something you should talk to your doctor about," says Dr. Witham.
In school-aged children sleep apnea, often linked to obesity, can be a factor making it difficult for kids to rest. TV and other distractions are frequently to blame. The lack of Zs also impacts daytime behavior.
"There's been a correlation between behavior and poor night's sleep. We certainly do know that, that a long night's sleep does help cognitive function and behavior," says Dr. Witham.
Dislandys sees what one slip in slumber does to her kids.
"They just like drag around the house," says Acosta.
Keeping kids on schedule is the surest way to regulate sleep or spot a sleep disorder.

Faith under fire in Bethlehem: Mitri Raheb's FAITH IN THE FACE OF EMPIRE
At last year's launch of veteran travel writer Dervla Murphy's remarkable book, A Month by the Sea – Encounters in Gaza, she made a simple but telling point. "The Palestinians' predicament is that they are the victims' victims". Of course, in Faith in the Face of Empire, an equally remarkable book by a Palestinian Christian pastor, victimhood (despite its postmodern attractions) is a dangerous mantle. Read more
U2's Songs of Innocence (3): A Disquieting Lullaby (SLEEP LIKE A BABY)
U2 can be pretty shocking. If you've followed social media recently, you'll know they've caused global offence by giving away their Songs of Innocence album for free (oh, and a nice tidy cheque from Apple for $100 million). I do think that the sum is pretty obnoxious. There's no way that anyone needs that kind of cash, least of all the world's most successful band in history (more or less). I'd say it represents, at the very least, a rather grim error of judgment. I have enjoyed some of the memes that this has provoked, though (esp Who is U2 anyway?). But even though that all now seems rather an inadvertent PR disaster, the album contains some genuine shocks which are clearly more artfully deliberate.
U2's Songs of Innocence (2): Enigmatic Personal Variations and Iris
So I've been pondering a lot on the fact that Bono has called Songs of Innocence a personal album. Here he is in Rolling Stone last week:
"We wanted to make a very personal album," Bono told Rolling Stone's Gus Wenner the day before the press conference in an exclusive interview. "Let's try to figure out why we wanted to be in a band, the relationships around the band, our friendships, our lovers, our family. The whole album is first journeys — first journeys geographically, spiritually, sexually. And that's hard. But we went there."
U2's Songs of Innocence (1): Opaquely Specific: SONG FOR SOMEONE…
To be opaque is to be beguiling, provocative. You need to be hooked, of course. But once I'm hooked, I never want everything on a plate. I want to be made to work a little. It is one of the most compelling things about U2's songs. Read more
The Recovering Greenness of a Shrivelled Heart: Thoughts on Rachel Kelly's Black Rainbow
Rachel Kelly is spot on: "But in the end, depression doesn't follow rules: it is a devil that comes in many guises." (Black Rainbow, p231) So there is a sense in which her experiences of depression (two highly debilitating and bewildering attacks and the subsequent need to manage it) will inevitably be unique. But her new Black Rainbow is remarkable: for it is no misery memoir but an act of generosity. In making herself vulnerable through talking so openly about facing and working through deeply personal pains, she has offered nothing less than a gift of grace. For in the midst of the bleak, black, barrenness of depression, she has found a path through. For those of us perhaps further back along the road, this is a germ of hope.
Wartorn faith: a conversation from the Aleppo front line (1)
This is the first of what I hope will be a regular posting. Yesterday, I was able to chat on the phone with a pastor friend in Aleppo in Syria. He is the pastor of a community that has witnessed in the city for over 150 years. But Aleppo is on the front line of the appalling conflict in Syria (as this helpful, interactive map demonstrates).
It was remarkable to be able to chat with almost crystal clear clarity, even if for only a few minutes – despite the fact that he lives with his family right in the heart of a war zone. Read more

A model of devout resignation
I was in Cambridge for a few days speaking for some events that took place far too late at night for me (carol services at 10pm!!). So naturally, my mind wandered from time to time while the shepherds were watching. And my gaze settled on this memorial which was just above my head. It looks like any other, and is quite wordy. But those words definitely bear close reading. For this particular plaque testified to something far greater than the usual pieties of such things. Read more
God, Gethsemane and Grace: How can God allow Suffering?
Again as part of our Uncover apologetics series, I looked at the issue of God and suffering on Sunday (my previous in the series was on the historicity of the gospels). For many, this really is the big one today. Belief in the divine seems palpably absurd in a suffering, chaotic, apparently uncontrollable world of forces, reactions and atoms. Read more
Why I love L'Abri
Many are unaware of L'Abri. And that is both a shame and an inevitability. It is a work that thrives behind the scenes and out of the spotlight. It never advertises or fundraises. It just keeps its doors open to all who come and need it. I've only ever spent time at the English L'Abri, but it is part of a family of communities around the world which all sprang from the original work set up by Francis Schaeffer in Switzerland (all the details are on their website). Read more
Q Conversations 2: the living legend that is Frances Whitehead
You may not have heard of Frances Whitehead – but if you have read any of John Stott's books, you will have witnessed her extraordinary handiwork: transforming his handwritten scrawl into immaculate typescript ready for the publishers. For more than 50 years, she worked very closely with him and her perspective on his life and work is unique and valuable.
So it was a total joy for me to spend the best part of a day with her at home in Bourne End, on the Thames, to the west of London, during which our conversation ranged over all kinds of things. Read more
Forging a future out of a pandemic of tragedy: Rhidian Brook's The Aftermath
The months immediately after the close of the Second World War were confusing. One minute the Allies had been dropping bombs on Germany (as Col Lewis Morgan, the protagonist in Rhidian Brook's The Aftermath, points out, more bombs fell on Hamburg in one weekend than fell on the London in the entire war), the next they were dropping lifeline supplies in the Berlin Airlift of '48-'49. The disorientation this must have brought for ordinary Germans is articulated by some so-called ferals (kids living in the ruins of the city): Read more
10 bringers of deep joy in a crazy and sometimes dark world
I've no evidence to back up this claim, but I strongly suspect that those who have the news on 24/7 will go mad. Simply because 99.9% of news items (which usually consist in the urgent rather than the important) are bad – and when taken in such large doses, they can propel one into the deepest of pits. Or perhaps that's just me. Anyway, we need antidotes, things that bring joy, delight and perhaps even a little dose of optimism. In other words, things to be grateful for.
Notice how none of my list involves spending much (if any) money. Which says something in itself, does it not…? Read more
If only I'd thought of saying that: Chris Russell's TEN LETTERS
We've all had that frustration of suddenly realising the mot juste to clinch an argument … long after it has been lost and forgotten. 'If only I'd thought of saying …' or words to that effect. (And as Don Carson once pointed out, we never lose arguments during their mental rerun.) Well, this is essential what Chris Russell has done in his Ten Letters: to be delivered in the event of my death (DLT, 2012). Though I'm being harsh – to reduce this extraordinary book to argument-clinching zingers after the event is very unfair. These letters are more like deep pastoral meditations after encounters, events, conversations which subsequently required extended reflection and heart-searching
The inaugural Q Conversations podcast: Talking with Jaap van Heusden
It's been a germ of an idea for ages, but at last it's finally come about. Q now has a podcast. Hurrah. I can just sense the infectious excitement simply oozing throughout cyberspace. But there are loads of fascinating people out there: hearing how a few live out their lives and passions ought to be fun. Doncha think?
Well, whatever you feel about the prospect of Q podcasts in general, the inaugural episode in particular is definitely exciting because last week, I had the chance to record a conversation with the very talented and thought-provoking Dutch filmmaker, Jaap van Heusden. Here is the link on iTunes (or if you don't have that, direct through Jellycast) Read more
MAY CONTAIN NUTS: Food labelling = GOOD; People labelling = NOT SO
You've got to label food these days. It makes sense. In these days of pre-packaged, pre-cooked food, you naturally want to know what's in the package. So it's a bit of a shame when it tells you you're eating cow when all the time it's horse. The remedy is not to ditch the label; just make sure it's telling the truth. Labels are essential for consumer confidence and even, at times, to stay alive. For let's face it: nuts can kill.
The Gulag Shawshank: Lev & Sveta Mishchenko in 'Just Send Me Word'
The proverbial 'out of the frying pan into the fire' could have been minted especially for Lev Mishchenko, one half of the extraordinary couple at the heart of Orlando Figes' Just Send Me Word. Before completing his science studies in Moscow, he was whisked away to the Nazi front. Soon after, he was captured and spent considerable time as a German POW. As a German-speaker, he was able to make himself useful – though he resolutely refused to become a German spy. That wasn't enough to prevent him from being convicted as one on his release – for which his sentence was death, commuted to 10 years hard labour in Siberia. Read more
Some thoughts on Thoughts to Make Your Heart Sing
Having spent the last four posts talking about childhood reading in general, it seems appropriate to move onto this. Those familiar with the Jesus Storybook Bible will know (and no doubt love) the style. That is easily the best of its kind for young children. Sally Lloyd-Jones and artist Jago have followed up with Thoughts to Make Your Heart Sing. It's ostensibly for children – though it mustn't be reserved only for children. I found it thrilling – having expected just to dip and out, I found myself reading cover to cover.
Q's Christmas Competition 2012: RESULTS
At long last – after literally hours and hours of speculation, I can now at last announce the winners of the Q Christmas competition. Each of these lucky, lucky people will receive a free copy of e-Cross-Examined.

Very impressed with the quality and speed of receiving my item. Will use this site for future purchases!
I recieved part in timely manner with no issue installing.Thanks.
Works perfect!! Easy to install!!
Fit like the original
GMC 2500HD 2003 model Driver's side rear tail light assembly came within a few days in the US mail, and I noticed it was marked as manufactured in Taiwan; it was, however, actually better quality than the existing tail light assembly which I had gotten replaced a year before, admittedly at a discount body shop. The plastic was thicker, looked like original manufacturer's equipment to me. Maybe this will be the last time I need to get a tail light assembly!
Tail light looks like oem, it comes with the wiring harness, bulb sockets are not interchangeable. There are a few small molding tabs that must be trimmed just a tad to get the tail light to sit in the fender properly.
Another thing to note is your better off using the old screw clips as they are already tapped for securing screws, KEEP TRUCKING

|Hi, I'm brand new here and I haven't been able to find a posting with this problem, so I thought I'd ask. I live in an apartment building where there is a fire door at each end of the hallway. For roughly the past two weeks the neighbors across the hall have been propping open the fire door immediately outside my apartment (it's right next to their door too). There is big sign on each fire door stating that it is a fire door and must remain closed by order of the fire marshal. I have a kitten that likes to escape as soon as I come in the door so I've been closing the fire door everyday so she won't make it down 3 flights of stairs before I can catch her.
Two days ago I had closed the door and was unlocking my apartment when the lady across the hall came out of her apartment, looked at the now closed door then went back into her apartment, retrieved a piece of cardboard and propped the door open again. I stood there gaping at her but she wouldn't make eye contact or acknowledge me in any way. (I should have said something but I was so shocked at her audacity that I didn't.) Obviously she knew I had just closed the door. So, I immediately called the management company and reported it. The assistant manager told me thank you and that she'd send them a letter. (either a warning or a notice of a lease infraction, I'm not sure. But they're pretty quick to send out infractions without a warning first so I'm assuming it's the latter.)
Then, yesterday I came home and the door was propped open again. I closed it and immediately after I had entered my apartment I heard my neighbor come out and prop it open again. So I went back out and closed it. It just became a silent power struggle between us and I ended up closing that door 6 times last night and this morning it was open again.
So today I called the management company again and left a voicemail. I'm not sure whether the neighbors were sent the letter promised by management or not, so they either don't know that it's not okay or they don't care--despite the large signs on the doors.
The issue with my kitty running out is annoying, but I don't expect my neighbors to change anything because of it. And while I think my neighbors behavior is terribly rude, I can deal with that. (Just becase their neighbors doesn't mean I have to be friends with them.) My biggest issue now is the fact that the fire door is there for a reason. If there was a fire and that door could give us an extra few minutes to get out of the building it could save our lives. I also looked up the city ordinances and fire codes etc and read that it's against the law to prop open fire doors.
So, my question is what do I do at this point? Do I continue to call the management? I don't want to keep bothering them but this is a safety issue. Honestly, I'm not willing to knock on the neighbors door to talk to them--since it is a law I feel like the management should take the responsibility of notifying them. The fire department for my city has a phone number to call with questions about fire codes but that seems like I'd be "tattling" on the management company. Any suggestions? I'm frustrated because there have been a LOT of apartment fires in my county in the past few months and it would be devastating to lose all my possessions--but so much worse to be hurt or die because of a DOOR.
Oh--one more thing: I can't figure out any good reason that the neighbors insist on the door being open since the doors to our units are always closed. We don't even have peepholes. I'm perplexed as well as frustrated so any advice anyone can give me would be great! Sorry this is so long!

|You hit on the big one - Safety. Which in this case goes hand in hand with Liability. That door is there for a reason and meant to be kept shut for a reason. Heaven forbid a devastating fire break out and it's learned later that door was open and Mgmt knew it was being propped open. They could legally be up the proverbial creek.
I think you've expressed reasoning quite well here. I'd urge no more phone calls to Mgmt. Put it in writing, keep it straight to the point and avoid mention of the kitten at all. (I get that part, but it's not relevant to them and not what's going to get results for you.) Zero in on your fear for your personal safety and others. I was going to suggest Certified as proof they got it, but that would be your call. My thoughts would be standard delivery first time, Certified thereafter if it continues.
In your letter quote local fire code, mention just what you said above: that if that door is by law meant to stay closed and could give you and others an extra few minutes in a fire and/or help save lives, you are very uneasy that it's being kept open. Mention you've closed it at night and found it open in the morning and are deeply concerned at the possibility it's being left open all night while everyone is asleep. (Also, by doing that, does it give easy, unauthorized access to the building?)
I wouldn't call the fire marshall unless it becomes obvious that Mgmt is unwilling to enforce this. That will get results, but it's going to become a thorn in Mgmt's side in the form of possible citations, being on a 'watch' list so that random follow up inspections are done, etc. That won't be appreciated, so that's why I'm encouraging you to try the letter first, before pulling out the big guns. Also, I don't like verbal communication for a couple reasons. It's too easy to put on a back burner, or a receptionist could have taken the call or voicemail and simply blew it off. In writing in the proper hands should get results.
If Mgmt has any sense, once they get your letter mentioning fire code and the fear for personal safety they will monitor this closely and realize if they don't, it's a dangerous area they are treading into. If that doesn't get results, then by all means do what you need to in order to protect your safety.
|Could she possibly be opening it to get rid of the smell of.... something illegal going on? I personally would call the fire marshall's office and let them know what's going on. Don't worry about your super - either he does his job or he doesn't (and is quite able to take care of himself).
- Posted by quietrenter (My Page) on Fri, Mar 19, 10 at 18:23
|Thanks for the advice. When I've called the management office I haven't mentioned the cat specifically for that reason--why would they care about someones random anxiety? So I just mentioned the fire marshal sign and that it seems like a safety issue. I do hesitate to call the fire marshal even though I know there are regulations saying landlords can't penalize a tenant for calling. But we all know that there are ways of treating people poorly without being in violation of a rule/law.
Also, no it's not a security door so at least anyone coming into the hall have already gotten access to the building. (Though people do prop open the security door to outside a lot too.)
I had thought of the smell issue. I know people do prop open the doors periodically for awhile when they've cooked something potent which doesn't bother me since it for short times. But, this doesn't seem to be the case as I haven't smelled anything strong. The logic behind it is so confusing! It makes me think they're now doing it just because they know I'm closing it.
I think I'm going to give it a day or two to see of it continues and then try the letter if nothing gets better. At least today it stayed closed for several hours between when I closed it and when I drove by on my lunch break. And when I closed it after work they've yet to open it again--it's been 2 1/2 hours. So it's a step in the right direction. Maybe they finally got the letter and aren't being so vigilant about it...
Thanks again for the advice! I was afraid someone would immediately say I'm being unreasonable.
- Posted by moonshadow (My Page) on Fri, Mar 19, 10 at 20:24
|Oh, I don't think you're unreasonable at all. As a LL I cover myself as best I can from these kinds of situations (houses, tho). And the reason I suggested holding off on the FM is for just the reason you stated. Not knowing what type of LL you have, some could take it as a personal affront. But I still say if you get no results beyond a letter or two, FM is a viable alternative.
I'd be interested to know how it goes.

I'm interested in genealogy and history.
I've spent a good bit of time in cemeteries of late taking photos. It seems a good idea to share those with others by posting them to Find A Grave.
Hopefully, others will appreciate the opportunity to find photos of family markers when it is not practical for them to actually visit the cemetery.
You're welcome to use the photo;credit would be appreciated.
If I can help with a photo of a tombstone in Western Jefferson County, I'll be glad to try.

If you are here, we are certain you are looking for a training partner and we hope to be your preferred choice. Corporate growth begins with an honest look at your people and their desires. What we provide is customised coaching for dynamic team transformation!
This is brutal, but we will not be able to make progress unless we face up to our fears!
Yes, we can have fun, but we are also here to learn to be winners so, bring it!
Immersion Learning is at its best when the experience is extremely entertaining!
Enough with the theories and the books, and let's get to work!
"Brutally honest and extremely captivating. I was a skeptic for such courses, but Gabriel has made a believer out of me. His approach is simple, very personal and surprisingly humble."
"I attended his seminar here in India. Never before have I seen some of the things he did during our one-day program. I really want this more in India and for Indian sports as well."
"Gabe and I got along very well. I told him that for the past eight years, our training experience was bad and he laughed at us. And then he turned it on. It was the best leadership experience our group of regional directors ever had. It was amazing."
Yes, our coaching team has been around for a while and we have coached close to 45,000 people around the world in almost 70 different firms. We are proud of this but we know we can do better. Coaching teams is a magical feeling and getting results for your partners is more than just icing on the cake.
We have seen training reduced to pure fun and games these days and we will not represent that. We only want to work with serious leaders who have concrete goals to achieve and teams who believe that training helps. But not to worry; it will be fun too!
Head Coach a.k.a. Coach Gabe combines an amazing sense of humour with a serious touch on life. He has been through many ups and downs and constantly drives himself to be better every day. He loves sports and is a devoted father of two. His training is intense as he approaches his partners like he approaches his own team. He is a trained engineer who is also a certified motivational coach, NLP practitioner and peak performance specialist.
Irene has over a decade of experience in the highly intensive and demanding advertising industry. She has worked with clients in various industries in creating the best experiences for their customers and users. Precision and process are her focus in our training programmes. With her keen listening and analytical skills, she identifies subtle differences between needs and wants and coaches her clients to take the right action for the best results.
With over 15 years experience in sales, team leading and business consulting within the technology industry, Craig leads our business training segment. Highly motivated, he brings an immense level of experience in selling to the executive suite. Why do executives buy? He provides valuable insight into the mind of the high-flying decision maker and shows you how to build on your current sales framework to leverage this power play in your day-to-day sales engagements.
Depending on the size of the group and we try to keep it below 50 for the best outcomes, we engage the right personnel to assist us in our programs.
Putting a team together is a hard thing to do; leading them to greatness is a different challenge altogether. The world is getting tougher, but winners embrace the challenge and give it their all for their team to succeed. Leader or coach, we want our people to succeed and when they do, our team wins; the organisation wins.
This is the biggest challenge in any team, and is also the refection of a successful organization. It is the people who make a winning team, so how do you build one? What are the knowns and unknowns? What makes a winning team that can take the organization to the next level?
Success does not come from what you understand and define alone; it comes from WILLPOWER. What WILL you do to attain what most only read and dream about? How much do you have to sacrifice and how hard is it going to be? Why have you not done it yet? Find your answers today.
As a team we want to set the record straight before we proceed any further.
We specialise in Leadership and Team Building programs and have worked mostly with banks and other corporate teams that are marketing and sales driven. We know it is hard to build teams and that's why the entire third party perspective becomes so much more important.
There is a leader in everyone but not everyone can truly lead. It is a journey filled with pitfalls and barriers and as a leader, you cannot just find a way out for yourself but for another 40 people you are leading. What you see, they must see too!
As leaders, you know this is not easy, and we live in challenging enough times as it is, but always learn to view things from a different perspective.
Building a team that you can trust and commit to is a challenge known to many great leaders. You are on that path and the challenges are universal, albeit with some new ones evolving along the way. Rally your troops to see what you see and achieve what you want to achieve.
A well-conducted team building program can help the leader set the direction for the quarter or even the year. This is one of the best investments you can make as a good company.
Wow, do not get us started on this. People who come through our doors seem to know more about coaching than we do. Why? Because they have attended all the programs in the world, that's why. They know every performance psychology theory. So what is preventing them from moving forward? It all boils down to the the WILL.
There comes a point where you have to ask yourself, "What WILL you do?" The real learning happens when you begin this journey and that is when you need a coach. Let us try and explain this better: If you are under the perception that you can become the world's greatest golfer just by reading books, getting membership, buying clubs and watching other golfers, good luck to you. YOU HAVE GOT TO PLAY THE GAME. You need to engage a coach only when you are ready to play the game. Ok, that settles it.
We have a coaching series called "No Guts No Glory". Well, the title pretty much says it all. Bring your WILL when you come see us. You might ask, "If I have the WILL, why do I need you?" I have two answers for you.
Well, we hope you now know the importance of a coach. No Guts No Glory!

I Don't Know If I Can Fix It...
How did we get to this point? I don't know.. I try to look back to the very beginning of our problems & it's so hard to pin point one thing. We have been having problems for about three years.. Its been going on for so long & I am so tired.. Tired of the fighting & the accusations.. Tired of the drama & stress. I don't know if its fixable any more... Its affecting him & me.. & my kids.. That's the sad part. I don't think life should be this hard.. I just want to be happy.. I need to be happy.. I even think that I may be happier alone & so will he.. 14yrs is a long time.. I was 18 when I got married.. So I have never been alone & that's so scary.. We separated once for about 2 months & then ended up getting back together.. But this time it feels so very different. This is like the final drum roll.. My 10yr old daughter told me this morning that she would like her dad & I to get a divorce.. Such a stunning statement from my child. She said that she is tired of the fighting.... I think we all are....
I hope it all works out for you.
When the children ask you to get a divorce you realize how much it's affecting them, more than you usually know. Yes, you've been together a long time and because I've been married 5 times I'm something of an expert on divorce, if not on marriage. There is another way, separate permanently. Not a really good option either. Somewhere, there's the right person but you shouldn't try to find him until you're free and have been for awhile so you aren't just hooking up to fill a void. Believe me, I made that mistake.
Don't worry...I'll keep you in every prayer I pray. Love you :-)
I usually don't believe in divorce...but I want you to be happy too. I care too much about you to just let you keep fighting like this...and I care about your husband and kids too just because they're also members of the human race.

Maybe you should try praying about it...God will give you the right answer.
