The Sundance International Film Festival kicks off today amid whispers that the world's premiere low-budget showcase is losing touch with its independent roots. This year's event boasts a line-up more suited to a mainstream festival - films showing include: The Big Kahuna starring Kevin Spacey, Ethan Hawke's Hamlet, Ben Affleck in The Boiler Room (pictured), the provocative American Psycho and the Robert Altman-produced Trixie, starring Nick Nolte and Emily Watson. All of these have already been snapped up for domestic distribution.
Sundance - which plays out near Robert Redford's ranch in Park City, Utah - was initially conceived as a showcase where small-scale, independently-produced pictures could find a buyer. Last year, the event scored a major coup with The Blair Witch Project, which was bought by Artisan Entertainment for $1m and went on to earn more than $140m at the American box-office.
Writing in the LA Times, Kenneth Turan criticised the current state of Redford's festival. "It's difficult to think of Sundance as a place where films are shown. It's become, partly by happenstance, partly by design, a kind of multicultural circus, a self-fulfilling prophecy more than a festival."
On a more encouraging note, 26% of the 112 films or so on offer are from women directors - a higher percentage than ever before.
Sundance opens today with the premiere of the Thanksgiving comedy What's Cooking? and finishes on January 29 with an awards presentation for the Best Feature and Best Documentary.
Beatty in line for lifetime-achievement Oscar
It has been confirmed that Warren Beatty is to receive a lifetime achievement award at this year's Oscar ceremony.
The President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science, Robert Rehme, explained that: "in discussing this award for Warren, our governors stressed his passion for film, for getting it just right, and his courage in producing pictures that many other producers might have considered too dangerous to try."
Previous recipients have included Walt Disney, Alfred Hitchcock, Ingmar Bergman and Clint Eastwood. Beatty, who missed out on a Best Screenplay award for his political satire Bulworth last year, is expected to attend the ceremony.
The prestigious Irving Thalberg Memorial Award will be presented to the 62-year-old actor and film-maker at the 72nd annual Academy Awards on March 26.
Bullock bitten by 'canine-style' Corman film
From Jack Nicholson to Francis Coppola, Martin Scorsese to John Sayles, many of Hollywood's biggest hitters owe their first break to fabled B-movie producer Roger Corman. For Sandra Bullock, however, the experience is not likely to be one she would wish to be reminded of.
The schlock auteur is currently negotiating with American censors to pass his 1992 picture Fire on the Amazon for cinema release. Bullock stars alongside Craig Sheffer, and one scene finds the actors indulging in what the production-notes decorously describe as "passionate, canine-style love-making in the jungle".
Fire on the Amazon was originally rated R back in 1994. But Corman has since added a further five seconds to the infamous "canine-style" extravaganza, and the MPAA has now decided that the new version merits a prohibitive NC17 rating. "The board says the movie is obscene, which is ridiculous," Corman told Variety. He is planning to screen the movie at this month's American Film Market convention, and worries that the new rating will scare off potential buyers. Corman is considering appealing the decision but refuses to tone down the offending scene. Bullock has yet to be drawn on the matter.
Ecstasy star Lamarr dead at 86
Once billed as the most beautiful woman in the world, the actress Hedy Lamarr was found dead at her home in Orlando, Florida. She was 86 years old.
Lamarr was born Hedwig Eva Maria Kieslar in Vienna, and rose to fame in a clutch of Austro-German films before making her Hollywood debut with Algiers. Her combination of raven hair, porcelain skin and almond eyes entranced 1930s film-goers, while her upfront sexuality stirred up controversy within middle America. She went down in film folklore for her famous nude bathing scene in the 1932 erotic classic Ecstasy - filmed just before the Hays Code imposed a rigid set of guidelines on screen sex.
Lamarr lost out to Ingrid Bergman in the race to star in Casablanca, and in the 40s and 50s her acting career faltered. "The problem is that I'm a hell of a nice dame," Lamarr mused to an interviewer in 1970. "The most horrible whores are famous. I did what I did for love. The others did it for money."
Mendes goes on the record
Acclaimed first-time film director, Sam Mendes' American Beauty opens in the UK next week. The former theatre director's movie arrives with a very impressive collection of award nominations, and is hotly tipped for Oscar success.
In keeping with the mythical status that is starting to attach itself to the British wunderkind, Mendes says Alan Ball's script was pushed across a restaurant table by Steven Spielberg himself. But in an interview in today's Independent, Mendes admits that on first impressions he wasn't particularly enamoured of the script, and it wasn't until he read on and saw the layering of textures that he came round.
Making the film was a learning process which was largely a case of discovering what he get rid of - cutting away superfluous scenes, freeing the sets from unnecessary clutter and moving the film towards a greater sense of ambiguity. Mendes relates how he was wary of indulging his new-found liberties too far, especially the lure of the close-up, and the (particularly non-theatrical) ability to control exactly what the audience should look at. "One of the things I did was to cut out a silhouette of the front row in a cinema audience and stick it on the monitor screenÄ just to remind me that this is a 40-foot screen."
Casting couch
Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder are to be reunited. Not in real-life (the two were engaged for three years before an acrimonious split) but in Just To Be Together, Michaelangelo Antonioni's new film which starts shooting soon.
Rhys Ifans is to star opposite Keanu Reeves and Gene Hackman in The Replacements, a comedy by Howard Deutch. The Welsh actor, not known for his athletic physique, will play an American football player.
Quentin Tarantino will star in Little Nicky, the forthcoming comedy/horror in which Adam Sandler plays Satan on the hunt for his younger brother (Rhys Ifans). Tarantino will play a blind preacher who senses evil in Sandler's presence.
Jennifer Aniston is going on-line with a website called Voxxy, aimed at teenage girls. The star of Friends, and girlfriend of Brad Pitt, will star in a 13-episode, half-hour series which will run on the site when it launches in the spring. Aniston calls the upcoming show "entertaining" and "empowering" and says it "will allow me to speak honestly with teens."
Brad Pitt is rumoured to be considering playing Jack the Ripper in a film by Albert and Allen 'Dead Presidents' Hughes. Shooting is scheduled to begin in the Czech Republic this spring.

|RE: Can someone tell me what is so great about Ant?
|Wed, 07 Feb 2001 01:59:14 GMT
> Let me get this straight. Complex ant files are ... complex ... as are > complex makefiles. Not such a great point. Simple makefiles > are ... simple. OK, so it's not rocket-science, but I thought it needed to be said. I'll explain below > Well .. yer ... but how many simple Makefiles are actually > useful. Mine are. It depends on what you consider to be a "makefile" I have a make-engine that is a makfile included within each project's makefile. It basically gives you a lot of what ant gives. (Not all, but a lot) In Ant the logic is in the tasks, written in java. In make the logic is in my "engine" makefile. It's rare for me to touch that file, and it only happens when I need to define, what to ant would be a custom "task". > Compare > the average makefile to compile and jar some classes vs > average build file. > Makefile is a tad larger/more complex. I'll take the time to write both later and see, but your conclusion doesn't seem obvious to me at the moment. > Arguements like - complex build > processes are complex hence your build tool is irrelevent if > you aim for simplicty is somewhat foolish, no? That's not what I said/meant. What I mean is: * Simple makefiles are not (IMO) hard to understand. * Complex makefiles are hard to understand. * Simple build files are not hard to understand. * Complex build files are hard to understand. I get the impression that people are comparing Simple-Ant to Complex-Make. That is partly a result of the tools - ant does encourage simple files, and make does encourage complex files, but I don't think "ant files are easier to read" is universally true. > Then you argue that you believe there > should be a build engineer/process manager ... Yes. 100%. But it's not (just) to maintain the build files. It's to guarantee the integrity of the final product. They need to have a good understanding of the build tools, but I don't think joe-coders does. > The main advantages with ant is that it only > executes most tools once and if the tool is java based it > usually executes > it in VM rather than creating a new VM (which is costly). That is true. What I was thinking of is the trivial case of recompiling only a small number of files. The overhead of make is in my experience smaller for that than ant, and you would have to be compiling quite a number of files to regain that time for ant. For a full rebuild of a medium to large project, I would expect Ant to win quite convincingly. Hmm, I wonder if I could hack make to run everything in one command... > >> 5. Lot of custom tasks for Java related tasks such as jar, > >> war, ear, javadoc, > >> and a lot more. See > >> http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/jakarta-ant/docs/ > >> for a list of all the Ant tasks. > > > >Which is just as easy in make. > > not really. I was thinking of writing shell scripts to handle the tasks. Anything that you can write a java task to do, you could write a shell script to do (even if that script ran java). While ant is extended with java classes, make is extended with shell commands. > >Writing makefiles that work is a complicated process, but I > don't find > > that writing ant files is much easier. > > I would actually say that writing complex several project ant > files is more > difficult in ant than it is in make.

For the record, I like Ant better than make, but I do find make more powerful, and I think it gets a bad rap, because there's so many bad makefiles out there.

Which baby carrier should I choose?
Good question! But the answer really depends on how you intend to use it! Babywearing is a great way to soothe and bond with your baby. Some parents want to use a baby carrier exclusively for convenience while others want to further develop a strong relationship with baby. Whichever your preference, we have a variety of wraps, baby slings, and soft structured carriers to suit your needs and lifestyle. All of our baby carriers are safe, comfortable and allow for convenient hands-free wear.
Baby carriers are like a pair of jeans; everyone has their favorite and they fit everyone just a little bit differently. We'll help guide you to the perfect carrier.
Baby Slings
Ring slings are a great option for a babywearer who is on the go. Ring slings are a long piece of fabric with 2 rings sewn on to one end. They're easy to put on and off. A ring sling is worn across one shoulder and adjusted by pulling fabric, or the tail, through rings. Ring slings make breastfeeding convenient and discreet while out and about. Find the material that's right for you. Some lighter fabrics are perfect for summer while a heavier material is better for winter.
Baby Wraps
Baby wraps allow for a customized fit. There are many options for how they can be worn, and many beautiful styles for you to choose from. Wraps work well for infants all the way through toddlerhood. Wraps do have a bit of a learning curve, but with a little practice, you can become a master wrapper. Choose from woven wraps or, for a newborn, try a stretchy wrap with a little more give.
Soft Structured Carriers
A soft structured carrier looks a bit like a backpack. They're just as easy to get on and off, too. Soft structured carriers can be worn on the front or back. Our selection includes carriers with padded shoulders and lumbar support that are easy on the wearer's back and provide an ergonomic position for the baby. By adding an infant insert, most soft structured carriers can be used with infants – toddlers. With adjustable waistbands and straps, SSCs fit wearers of many sizes.
Carrier Accessories
Make babywearing a little bit easier with our carrier accessories. From drool pads to infant inserts, we have everything you need to get started.

Hideous and Perfect - Angelspit's 3rd Album
12 tracks
September 9th, 2009
"From start to finish Hideous and Perfect is a smartly written powerhouse of an album, magnificently improving on Angelspit's previous work while maintaining the band's distinct sound and feel."
- Trubie Turner, ReGen magazine
"When you couple this with the themes thrust out by the twelve tracks of deviousness on offer...you can see that this is not only some kind of a concept album (perhaps, without intent) but also something that has the capability to hit home, hit hard, and hit with stealth. The band's audience will happily 'eat distortion'."
- Sphere Magazine
"...the more you walk through their sonic universe the more you are convinced that they perfectly know what they're doing. This album sounds like a big kick in your ass or Mike Tyson hitting you right in the face! It's hard and merciless, cold and powerful or yet wild and kinky! With songs like "Making Money", "Sleep Now", "Channel Hell" and "Princess Chaos (featuring Donna Lynch)" the new Angelspit hits really hard! This band is definitely an unique sonic experience while their artwork also deserves a special mention."
- Side-line.com
"For an album which basically extends its middle finger at the conventions of electro-industrial and EBM genres, Hideous and Perfect has amazingly strong production values and a clean style that balances out the raw, rough instrumentation and harsh lyrics. The result is a mix that will make your heart race and your fists clench, but won't exhaust your ears with an oppressive blanket of distortion. On a good system (decent headphones work too, but not as well), you can hear even the tiniest synth patterns creeping in the background, even as you're being bludgeoned with huge industrial riffs and sternum-stabbing bass."
- Fear.net
Hideous and Perfect promises to be Angelspit's darkest release to date with its sonic textures ranging from hard pounding beats, to organic atmospheric samples, topped off by a feverishly powerful male and female dual vocal assault.
Hideous and Perfect is a vicious concoction of industrial guitar riffs, clever hooks and pathologically disturbed synths. Consisting of 12 harsh, heavy and deliberate tracks set to self destruct, Hideous and Perfect is challenging as it is catchy.
Angelspit's aesthetic concept is equally as iconic as their musical statement, as they continue to develop their fierce design and fashion aesthetic. Visually arresting photography and bold typography characterises the album's striking artwork making Hideous and Perfect a defining album of the industrial genre.

Balancing personal finances and restructuring payments is also becoming harder for wealthy people as they are increasingly hit by the recession, according to a debt charity, the Consumer Credit Counselling Service.
It also found that people in the south of England have the highest levels of debt in the UK.
Malcolm Hurlston, chairman of the service, said: "External forces over which the credit industry has no control, including recession, unemployment, increases in the costs of everyday living and a falling housing market, are compounding the problem of debt. These trends seem likely to continue for the foreseeable future."Reuse content

The Bitmap from Red Panda is a fierce bit crusher pedal capable of thoroughly mangling an instruments signal. A bit crusher essentially degrades the bitrate of a signal, creating an incredibly strange robotic tone the more it gets mixed into the signal. It can also sound like a monster fuzz pedal with a little tweaking. The Bitmap also has the ability to modulate the bitrate, generating some very unique movement which can be set in three different modes.Anyone looking to destroy their tone, or ad some chaos into the mix, look no further.
- Fractional bit reduction
- Sample-rate modulation
- Expression pedal input for sample rate (CV-compatible)
- Blend control to maintain bass or add subtle crushing
- Input gain switch to accommodate single or dual coil pickups and line-level signals
- Output level control for consistent volume, can also provide extra boost
- 3 color screen printed enclosure
- Soft-touch knobs
- True bypass
- Made in USA, from PCB to final assembly (enclosure made in Canada)

Unfortunately, with the large demands on reading and math from Common Core, science is often pushed to the side. If your district is like mine, you often have very little time to dedicate to science, yet are still expected to fully cover the entire curriculum. This packet was created to help save time and to cover the all important science concepts – all while still meeting the nonfiction criteria of Common Core.
In this packet you will find a mini-book for students to assemble and explore the critical science concepts. It can be used to teach, reinforce, and/or challenge students, all while meeting their needs and learning styles. The reading page has been differentiated for your students with one being a higher level (HL) and the other being a lower level (LL).
The tabs in this booklet can be used as science stations. The first tab contains an important vocabulary activity related to the science concept of static electricity and corresponds with the reading piece provided. The second tab asks comprehension questions related to the reading piece and requires students to support their answers with textual evidence. The third tab focuses on an investigation to deepen the understanding of static electricity and how it works. The fourth tab asks students to draw while the fifth tab prompts students to respond to a thought-provoking journal question.

To impede something is to delay or block its progress or movement. Carrying six heavy bags will impede your progress if you're trying to walk across town.
Impede comes from the Latin impedire which literally means "to hold the feet," formed from the prefix in- "in" plus pes "foot." Think about walking with a cast on your foot––how slow and awkward that would be. If you have a hard time reading, that will impeded your progress in math. An impediment is something that impedes, such as a physical defect that affects speech––a speech impediment.

Are you tired of starting a new diet and then disappointing yourself every time? Do you feel that no matter how motivated you are, you will always fall back into the trap of out-of-control eating?
If you're overweight now, own it. You have fat, but you don't have to say you are fat. It's not your identity unless you want it to be. What you are is a complex human being who can make choices to improve your life at any time - even right now.
In this book, you won't find a list of top 10 metabolism boosters. You won't find any magic or any quick fixes to make your belly flat just in time for the weekend. And I won't encourage you to avoid one food group like the plague or buy a new set of tiny crockery or pray the fat away.
What you can expect from this challenge is a no-nonsense, common-sense approach to shaking off some of the dieting industry's BS and trying to remember what our bodies know. We'll look at common-sense ways to gradually and safely lose weight that honor our instincts, not go against them.
The 21-Day Weight Loss Challenge will help you to:
Realize that right now you have fat, as opposed to being fat. It's not your identity; it's a temporary state, a choice.
Explore and understand the excuses and reasons that keep you overweight. Why aren't you more active? Why aren't you eating healthier? Why do you eat when your body isn't hungry?
Estimate your caloric requirements, the sweet spot where you slowly but steadily lose weight without feeling hungry and miserable all the time
Let go of magic pills, shakes, and other stuff in the dieting industry that colleagues and that skinny YouTube chick want you to believe in.
Take responsibility for loving, respecting, and nourishing your body

Just what I needed
It's safe to say that the weight loss genre is packed with people claiming to have miracle cures capable of helping you lose loads of weight effortlessly. As a serial dieter I have been taken in by these claims numerous times but in the end I always wind up seeing little change which is extremely discouraging. I've never given up hope completely though and when I came across this book it instantly got my attention, as someone who implements the law of attraction in various other aspects of my life I found the concept of using it for weight loss fascinating. The mind is an extremely powerful tool but so few people actually utilize its full power, with nothing to lose and plenty to gain I decided to give this a try.
I'm ashamed to admit that in the past I have struggled to maintain certain diets, there are many temptations around and my sweet tooth has always been a weakness. However, following the advice and methods this book contains has really made a difference to my eating habits, I feel more motivated to stick to my goals and old cravings are a lot less intense.
For me this is what separates this guide from others, instead of just listing some healthy foods to eat it actually helps to give you the correct mind-set so that you can consciously curb your bad habits and eat healthily, best of all it doesn't feel like you're on a diet. Instead everything just feels natural like it's the right thing to do.
As a result of my improved attitude towards food and diet I've managed to lose just over half a stone in 3 weeks. This is a significant amount considering the previous results I've had from other diets, looking to the future I'm now both excited and optimistic. I would not hesitate to recommend this book to others, the information is presented in a clear and concise manner making it easy to understand and implement the recommendations, most importantly of all though is the fact that it works.

Currently there are 2 (technically 3) types of users.
1. Reporting Users
2. Admin
3. End user - the user that submits tickets
We are working on more security but as of now there is not a way to limit this information.
Aug 7, 2008 at 12:18 UTC
Yes, this is a problem I am also facing. I want some other helpdesk participants to be able to input tickets and view those assigned to them without giving them the only option to do so, which is allowing them ADMIN access to the entire spiceworks system. The spiceworks team should consider if having not already done so something like:
1. Admin
2. Helpdesk Operators
3. Reporters
4. etc...

Gone in 46 Seconds
June 29, 2016
There were 689,527 motor vehicles reported stolen in the United States in 2014—that's a vehicle stolen every 46 seconds. Nearly 45 percent of these vehicles are never recovered. The estimated total value of vehicles stolen nationwide is more than $4.5 billion, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Protect your vehicle
Mopar's Electronic Vehicle Tracking System (EVTS) gives owners the peace of mind of always knowing where their vehicle is located. It is a state-of-the-art GPS-enabled stolen vehicle recovery system that helps protect your vehicle, along with additional available security features. Unlike other vehicle tracking systems, the Mopar EVTS offers nationwide tracking without a subscription.
The Mopar EVTS is offered in three packages: Base, Silver and Gold.
The Base plan includes a GPS stolen-vehicle locator, real-time stolen-vehicle tracking and a $1,000 theft protection warranty. The system is also transferable and upgradeable, with no subscription fees.
For added protection and service, vehicle owners can upgrade to the Silver or Gold package. The Silver package allows owners to set a "security fence." If the set limits are exceeded, then the registered owner will receive a text alert from their Mopar EVTS. Other features with the Silver package include arrival and departure notification, mapping of a vehicle's previous locations, 24-hour emergency service dispatch, automatic theft detection, online tracking, and an on-board panic button.
The Gold plan includes everything in the Silver package along with unlimited online tracking and a full concierge service, allowing vehicle owners to receive directions, make reservations and receive other needed assistance at the touch of a button using the EVTS registered owner's cell phone.
Don't make your vehicle a target
Nearly half of vehicle theft is due to driver error, such as leaving your keys in the vehicle. If you're going to park your car in a public space and will be away from it for a long period of time, use common sense and follow best practices, such as:
- Parking in well-lit areas if it's dark.
- Rolling up all windows and making sure your doors are locked.
- Never leaving valuables inside your vehicle, especially where they can be seen.
Where's my ride?
If you happen to find yourself in the unfortunate situation where your vehicle has been stolen, follow these steps:
- Contact local police immediately to file a stolen vehicle report. You will need a police report and case number to provide to your insurance company. You may also need to provide a license plate number, the make, model and color of your vehicle, and any other identifying information such as a vehicle identification number (VIN).
- Contact your insurance company to file a claim within 24 hours of discovering your vehicle has been stolen.
- Contact your insurance company and the police immediately if you happen to find you vehicle before the authorities.
So the next time you're upgrading your ride or personalizing your vehicle, let Mopar assist in protecting your vehicle. The 24/7 Rapid Response Center Team tracks down vehicles in minutes before possible damage can be done. GPS and cell technology provide nationwide coverage. Exact locations of stolen vehicles are pinpointed precisely across the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Mopar EVTS is currently available as a Mopar accessory at Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep® and Ram dealers. To learn more about how to better protect your vehicle from theft, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's website safercar.gov.

A man has been arrested after a 10-hour armed siege at a snooker hall in Hucknall, Nottinghamshire.
Armed police surrounded the Spot On snooker club in the centre of Hucknall at 2.20pm on Thursday following reports that a man inside had a gun.
Specialist officers negotiated with him throughout the afternoon and evening, and at 12.40am on Friday armed officers entered the premises and made an arrest.
A 20-year-old was detained on suspicion of possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and was being questioned in custody, Nottinghamshire police said.
Two women hiding in the building during the stand-off were guided to safety by police at about 8.40pm. They were distressed by their ordeal but uninjured.
The siege began when police were called to reports that a man inside the snooker hall was acting suspiciously. As the situation developed dozens of officers, including police armed with sub-machine guns and backed by specialist dog teams, set up a cordon around the venue, in Vine Terrace just off High Street.
Nearby businesses were told to lock their doors and keep people inside, and children and staff were evacuated from nearby Beardall Street primary school.
As the situation developed through the afternoon paramedics wearing green body armour and helmets arrived at the scene while black-uniformed armed police watched the snooker hall.
A man answering the snooker club's telephone told the Press Association: "It don't have nothing to do with you, does it? There's nothing to say so you can stop ringing the phone."
After the incident Nottinghamshire police said Vine Terrace and High Street would be reopened and residents allowed to return home, while a cordon would remain at the snooker hall while officers examined the scene.

The Unknown Child.
A boy, well young adult but until he becomes a knight will be known as a boy, is found wondering aimlessly in the dark forest with no memory of how he got there. When he is taken back the castle and mistakenly put into knight training, he slowly gets his memory back and unravels something that may shock the whole land into action. Not to mention the sleep walking dragon with a secret of his own.
Covered in mud from the waist down and looking like he'd had his brain removed, the knight found the boy wandering the dark forest. He looked to be around seventeen years of age and wore loose pants which seemed to be made of wool that hung off him with a shirt that fitted only a little better. The shirt however was made of the smoothest leather and had an intricate pattern painstakingly sown into it.
'Why are you wandering
the dark with no foot wear at this late time?' The knight asked. The boy looked up at him with a curiosity as if he hadn't noticed the knight's approach.
'The dark?' He replied. The knight noticed that the boy spoke very clearly and had authority behind his voice beyond his years.
'The dark is the forest you currently occupy.' The knight said. 'It is said the dark possesses a great dragon that guards a sacred tomb. No one enters the dark without at least a ten strong garrison behind them.'
'I don't think garrison is the correct word to use. Army would have been sufficient. And where's your "garrison"?' The boy replied. His tone was very matter of fact and didn't wash well with the knight.
'Be that as it may, I'll take you to the castle and get you cleaned up,' He said trying to conceal his anger. He picked the boy up and carried him cradled in his arms out of the forest.
Once out of the forest the boy noticed the ground was covered with the clearest grass that looked as if nobody had ever walked on it. He noticed something eerie about the seemingly clear grass as it began to move on its own. There was no wind that night and the moon was extremely bright in the clear winter sky. Where the knight had walked the boy looked behind to notice that the ground rippled. The grass moved around and swirled until the footprints were gone.
'Self preserving grass?!' The boy exclaimed looking astonished.
'It's known as the "Scary Green" to most souls across this great land. The given name for it is "Gramineae's thoughts" because it's agreed that the grass is thinking all the time of how to better itself. The grass reinvents itself every year as to not bore the lands populous.'
'Hmm….' The boy replied.
'Hmm? That's all you can say? You've not seen this before?' The knight asked.
'No. Self preserving grass.' The boy said as he gave the grass a nod out of what the knight could only describe as respect. 'It's agreed by whom?' He asked very slowly as the knight noticed he was becoming slow with the continued affects of fatigue.
'You'll see.' The knight said as he adjusted the boy who promptly made himself comfortable in the knight's strong arms and closed his eyes.
The boy awoke with a start to the sound of a loud bang. He found himself in a huge four poster bed with what felt like silk for sheets and the cover also. The silk or whatever it was draped over the whole bed as if to hide him away. He jumped out of his bed on top of his covers to discover he was wearing a white t-shirt and pants that he'd never worn before.
'MY CLOTHES!' He shouted at the top of his voice and pulled the silk drape away and threw it to the floor. This, he found, relieved some tension and he calmed himself down to help solve the problem of his missing garments. He could hear somebody pacing outside his door. The room was only big enough for the bed and a table with a small amount of room to stretch and walk. He grabbed the door, which he found to be unlocked, and threw it open to find a worried looking women standing there. She was holding the boy's leather t-shirt and was dressed like a maid.
'My humble esquire.' She said as she bowed low. 'I am sorry I had to take your t-shirt esquire. I was getting you ready for bed and forgot to leave it on your table. It's a very nice shirt esquire.' He was now leaning against the frame of the door looking at the women with a slight grin on his face.
'Can I have it back then?' The boy asked. She looked at him for short second.
'Yes sir. Sorry. Sorry. Immediately.' The women said very quickly. She looked scarred of him and slightly shaken.
'Oh sorry. Sorry.' She gasped as she ran off down the long corridor and disappeared down what looked like stairs to the right.
The boy put his t-shirt on over the t-shirt he currently had on. He looked up to find several keen eyes looking at him from four rooms along the corridor.
'BOOM!' He replied which sent the onlookers back to their rooms. The boy decided to get fully dressed and wear only his t-shirt instead of two and follow the path taken by the women. At these stairs he found the women looking at the wall as she sat on the bottom step. The boy walked down the stairs quietly and tapped the women on the shoulder.
'Oh. Esquire. Sorry.' She quickly yelped as she started to run off.
'Please be my guide.' The boy said after her.
She stopped dead and turned around with a calmed expression and what looked like relief.
'I'd be happy to'. She said as she put out her hand.
'I don't like holding foreign people's hands.' Said the boy. 'I'm looking for a knight. About six foot tall and very well sculpted. He brought me here.'
'I know the one. Follow me.'
She started to walk at a leisurely pace which allowed him to take in the surroundings without losing sight of her. The only thing he knew about this women is that she had a tendency to run a lot and be scarred of him.
'I'm Agatha by the way. Agatha Trimly.' She said whilst giving a small bow and continuing down the corridor which was getting more deserted by the second.
'You've done that a lot haven't you?' He asked.
'Right. Here we are.' She said as she stood to the right of an eight foot high door which was just wide enough for somebody to walk through and nothing else. He noticed that he had not really taken any of the surroundings in because he was thinking about Agatha and what he knew about her. He concluded that she has worked in this building for a short time and was still shy around company. She also seems to think running may solve most problems. The door had a complicated carving upon its face. The boy studied this for some time until he was nudged by Agatha.
'Come along esquire. The people of the land await.' She said with giddiness
to her voice. The boy gave her a quizzical look before pushing the door open. He noted how easy it was for him to push a door open of this size.
He turned to his right to see a vast room in front of him and scanned across it this time not failing to take it all in. Six long tables, around sixty feet long and six feet wide, were lined up in the middle of the room from one end almost to the other. Each extremely hard looking table had beautifully arranged bouquets of flowers on
them with a single rose sticking out of the top. The actual arrangement resembled one big daffodil with the rose through the middle. Each table had scores of people on it all laughing, talking, arguing and eating from silver plates. Every so often as the boy moved through the room he spotted men and women dressed similar to Agatha picking up and dropping off food or drink. The drink always seemed to be water. The scores of people included men in suits of chain mail which were very shiny and caused the boy to shield his eyes every so often. The other people at the tables were women in long skirts and tight shirts with chain mail over them who chatted openly with the men.This is an army the boy thought.
At the far end of the room there was a huge table that spans the length of all the other six tables combined. The boy had walked absent minded into the middle of the six tables at this point and he saw knights in full armor which looked very stream lined but aggressive. The chain mail could not be seen but the armor over it seemed to cling to each knight very comfortably. There were equal numbers of women and men at this bigger table with a very regal yet sour faced looking women to the left of centre, a serene looking girl who looked around his age sat to the right and a man sat in the middle. The man was wearing armor like the rest of the knights but his glimmered gold and he bore a crown on his head which almost disappeared into his long brown hair. The crown had a jewel at its centre with smaller jewels going away from it. His face was strong with a square jaw and high cheeks bones with big blue eyes.
The boy then noticed the familiar face of the sculpted knight that found him the forest striding up to him.
'Knight' He said before looking up at the man. The boy felt oddly drawn to him.
'Hello Zarath.' Agatha said warmly.
'Boy. Awake I see' Zarath replied looking down at him.
At this the boy started to stride forwards towards the strong looking man at the centre of the table. Zarath and Agatha followed behind. Agatha attempted to call after the boy but Zarath stopped her. The boy soon reached the table.
'OI!' Shouted the boy. 'I'M ZACHARIAH AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON!!!'

The distinction that underlies the question.
An admonition against advice and help in favor of curiousity.
The question itself, stated precisely.
Name the possibility about which we are convening.
Specify what is required of each should they choose to attend.
Make the invitation as personal as possible.
Be clear that a refusal carries no cost.
A place of fear and fault to one of gifts, generosity, and abundance;
A bet on law and oversight to one on social fabric and chosen accountability;
The corporation and systems as central, to associational life as central;
A focus on leaders to a focus on citizens;
Problems to possiblity.
Shift the context within which people gather.
Name the debate through powerful questions.
Listen rather than advocate, defend, or provide answers.
The distinction is between possibility and problem solving. Possibility is a future beyond reach.
The possibility conversation works on us and evolves from a discussion of personal crossroads. It takes the form of a declaration, best made publicly.
The questions, What is the crossroads you are faced with at this point in time?, What declaration of possibility can you make that has the power to transform the community and inspire you?
It asks citizens to act as is if they are creating what exists in the world.
The distinction is between ownership and blame.
The questions, For an event or project, How valuable an experience (or project, or community) do you plan for this to be?, How much risk are you willing to take?, How participative do you plan to be?, To what extent are you invested in the well-being of the whole?, The all-purpose ownership question, What have I done to contibute to the very thing I complain about or want to change?, The questions that can complete our story and remove its limiting quality, What is the story about this community or organization that you hear yourself most often telling? The one you are wedded to and maybe even take your identity from?, What are the payoffs you receive from holding on to this story?, What is your attachment to this story costing you?
The dissent conversation creates an opening for commitment.
When dissent is expressed, just listen. Don't solve it, defend against it, or explain anything.
The primary distinction is between dissent and lip services.
A second distinction is between dissent and denial, rebellion, or resignation.
The questions, What doubts and reservations do you have?, What is the no or refusal that you keep postponing?, What have you said yes to that you no longer really mean?, What is a commitment or decision that you have changed your mind about?, What resentment do you hold that no one knows about?, What forgiveness are you withholding?
The commitment conversation is a promise with no expectations of return.
Commitment is distinguished from barter.
The enemy of commitment is lip service, not dissent or opposition.
The commitments that count the most are the ones made to peers, other citizens.
We have to explicitly provide support for citizens to declare that there is no promise they are willing to make at this time.
Refusal to promise does not cost us our membership or seat at the table. We only lose our seat when we do not honor our word.
Commitment embraces two kinds of promises, My behavior and actions with others., Results and outcomes that will occur in the world.
The questions, What promises am I willing to make?, What measures have meaning to me?, What price am I willing to pay?, What is the cost to others for me to keep my commitments, or to fail in my commitments?, What is the promise I'm willing to make that constitutes a risk or major shift for me?, What is the promise I am postponing?, What is the promise or commitment I am unwilling to make?
The leadership and citizen task is to bring the gifts of those on the margin into the center.
The distinction is between gifts and deficiencies or needs.
We are not defined by deficiencies or what is missing We are defined by our gifts and what is present.
We choose our destiny when we have the courage to acknowledge our own gifts and choose to bring them into the world.
A gift is not a gift until it is offered.
The questions, What is the gift you still hold in exile?, What is something about you that no one knows?, What gratitude do you hold that has gone unexpressed?, What have others done in this room done, in this gathering, that has touched you?
The important thing about these questions is that they name the agenda that creates space for an alternative future. The power is in the asking, not in the answers.
Reception areas that tell us we are in the right place and are welcome.
Hallway's wide enough for intimate seating and casual contact.
Eating spaces refresh us and encourage relatedness.
Meeting rooms designed with nature, art, conviviality, and citizen-to-citizen interaction in mind.
Large community spaces that have the qualities of communal intimacy.

Airbus' game-changing A320 Family jetliner final assembly line in Mobile, Alabama – officially called the Airbus U.S. Manufacturing Facility – is the company's first production site in America.
This facility commenced aircraft assembly in July 2015, and delivered its first completed aircraft – an A321 – in April 2016 to U.S. customer JetBlue. The Airbus U.S. Manufacturing Facility is expected to deliver four aircraft per month by the end of 2017. Initial deliveries will be for A319, A320 and A321 current engine option (CEO) versions from Airbus' best-selling single-aisle family of jetliners, with the site transitioning to NEO (new engine option) versions beginning in late 2017.
The $600-million, 53-acre facility at the Mobile Aeroplex at Brookley represents Airbus' significant commitment to the U.S. – which is the largest market in the world for single-aisle aircraft. The vast majority of A320 Family jetliners produce in Mobile, Alabama will be delivered to North American customers.
In addition, the Mobile A320 Family final assembly line builds on an already strong presence of Airbus and its Airbus Group parent company in this Gulf Coast city – which also includes an engineering centre at the Mobile Aeroplex at Brookley that employs more than 200 engineers and support staff, as well as the Airbus Group's North American military customer services operation near the Mobile Regional Airport.

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that´s real
He stares at the can on his desk. It´s brown, and even though he can´t see what´s in it, he knows that it contains 200 small, blue pills. Over and over again he keeps thinking the same thought. Is this the right thing to do?
The scars on his forearms will fade away. The bruises on his chest and back will disappear. But the empty feeling within will always be there. It won´t fade away. It will never disappear.
He reaches out his right arm, but instead of grabbing the can his hand closes around a knife. It´s sharp and short. He holds it against his forearm. Feels the cold steel on his skin. Apparently, he´s still able to feel. He´s not dead yet. With a sigh he puts the knife away. Gives the can a quick look, then stares out the window. A bird twitters and he closes his eyes.The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting I try to kill it all away But I remember everything
He remembers when he was six. His mother hade given him a teddy bear on Valentines day. She died the next morning. It was so long ago, but it still hurt so badly. A few months later his father hit him the first time. Then it just got worse. He didn´t let anyone see the bruises or how he felt, but he hated everyone for not seeing.
What have I become
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I knowGoes away in the end
In the beginning he cried. He cried every night until he fell asleep. He cried in the bathroom, he cried when he was alone. Then he realized that tears do no good. They don´t help you keep on living. They don´t make the pain go away. The tears only show that you´re weak. He stopped crying. Now he hadn´t cried for eight years. Not once. He could handle pain, physical and mental. He was used to it. Even though he sometimes screamed inside he didn´t let a word slip out his mouth.
His uncle Sam knew what was going on behind the walls of the apartment. He tried to stop it. It almost worked. He got to live at Sams house for a week. Then Sam slipped at the top of the stairs. He fell and broke his neck. The 10-year old boy who had been happy for the first time in 4 years was brought back to his prison. It hurt, almost as bad as when his mother had died, to be so close to freedom and love and then loose it in a few hours. One day he found a knife.
Once he had a friend, Daniel. Daniel didn´t understand how he felt, but he accepted him. Not everyone did. The evening of November 6th Daniel got shot on the streets where he lived. It was a dangerous neighbourhood.
When he was 14, the school he went to decided to have a dance for all the students in 8th and 9th grade. There he met Emma. He fell in love with her, and they started to go out. They went to movies, held each others hands and kissed. Then she dropped the bomb. She was in love with someone else. The only one he had really loved didn´t love him back. Oh, it hurt.
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
Nothing mattered anymore. He didn´t care for what he did, or what he didn´t do. He stopped going to school. He dated girl after girl and didn´t even bother to look in their faces when he dumped them as if they were yesterdays trash. He didn´t see the pain in their eyes, the pain he was so familiar with.
Every night he hurt himself. If not with the knife, he used needles, cigarettes, scissors, anything that could leave a burning mark on his arms. His father still hit him, but not everyday anymore. He was often to drunk to even fix his eyes upon his miserable son.
He stares at the can on his desk. Is this the right thing to do? Is it the only way out? He knows the answer to both of the questions. It´s not the right thing to do, it´s not the only way out. But it´s the easiest way. His entire life has been complicated. Never easy. Why not choose the easy way for once? A lonely tear is finding its way down his cheek . He reaches out his hand and grabs the can.
What have I become
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

And in some places you may find it difficult to understand who 'him' or 'he' is, but that´s because I don´t want to name this boy, and when you don´t do that and there are other people in the story, it can become difficult to read…

Had I looked, I might have seen the first punch coming. But I never had a clue about the knockout.The sun was just beginning to warm the house on that cool, clear Sunday morning in late spring as I sat in my kitchen reflecting on my good fortune.Gazing out through the broad glass doors, beyond the manicured lawn and glistening swimming pool to the beauty of San Diego's Mission Bay, I was one with the limitless ocean that stretched away to the pale horizon.

Sid the Psych – Psycho-Ceramics
"As I look at it, Sam, you and I are in similar businesses," he began. "Yes, the people who come to you are called clients, while those who come to me are called patients. But in both cases, they come looking to us to solve their problems, don't they."
"That they do, Dr. Sid."
"And many times those are problems they themselves have created, and continue to create, regardless of us or what we do. Right?"
"Oh, so right," I replied with a knowing laugh.
"Well, I call the business of solving these people's problems "psycho-ceramics."
"Psycho-ceramics? I don't get it. We're ceramicists?"
"Yeah. We both deal with crackpots."
I couldn't resist a laugh. "Okay. So psycho-ceramics is dealing with crackpots."
"You got it. An inside term of the trade. That's what we do, you and I." He steepled his fingers and made eye contact. "So, what's going on? Tell me."
I waited for him to say more, but he kept silent.
Finally, he smiled. "Well, Sam, you're lucky. I don't help crazy people. I help people like you. Your situation is normal. Yes, it's dysfunctional. But it's normal."
I cocked an eye at him, and he understood that I didn't really get what he was saying.
Normal- D&D (Dumb and Dangerous)
"First, there's normal and there's abnormal," he explained, "and then there's functional and dysfunctional."
He waved on hand in a gesture of dismissal. "Let's forget the abnormal; they have problems I don't want to go into. Of the normal people in our society, at least ninety-five percent and more are dysfunctional.
"I divide my normal but dysfunctional patients into two separate categories. Now, here's what you need to know: The first category of dysfunctional I call D&D, and the second I call A,D&D."
"So… what is D&D, and what is A, D&D?"
Dr. Sid's face betrayed just a suggestion of a grin, and I knew that meant he was enjoying this.
"Well, Sam," he said, "D&D is Dumb and Dangerous, but usually only to oneself. A,D&D, on the other hand, is Angry, Dumb, and Dangerous. A whole 'nother level of dysfunctional. Those folks are a menace to society."
Suddenly, it all burst out. "Well, I don't know which of those categories I fall into. I am angry, but I don't think I'm a menace to society," I said.
Dr. Sid leaned forward. "Okay, you've been through some major losses. Your wife dumps you. You lose your law firm. It's understandable that all that is sending you into stress. ….
"By the way, in case you're still wondering, you're definitely D&D. Your anger is situation-based, not the core of your reality. It sounds like you need some counseling, somebody to hold up a mirror for you so you can begin to see how you get yourself into situations that smack you upside the head."
"As part of all that, he controls the money market account. At the end of the day, I'm lucky if I have control of my bladder!
Suicide never, homicide …
Dr. Sid stood up. I followed, assuming the session was at an end. "Sam," he said, laying a hand on my shoulder, "You're a little depressed. It's normal after what you've been through."
He leaned dramatically in my direction. "I have to ask, have you had any ideations of suicide?"
"Suicide? Never. I would never give anybody the satisfaction. Homicide, yes. And I have a short list."
He frowned, and then his face melted into a wry smile. "I appreciate your comedic humor," he said. "You're a funny guy, just like your father."
Johnny Redman – Thief selling shit to idiots
Johnny had been perceptive, bright, and a fantastic golfer. The PGA tour was his dream. But he just couldn't help shilling, cutting corners, working a con. He had never lost his confidence skills—or his rat sense for survival.
I had asked him once what he did at his boiler room office supply sales job. "I'm a thief selling shit to idiots—you know, like politicians and other B.S. role models," he had said, straight-faced.
Arrogance … where it belongs
Seeing the word 'partnership' did give me a twinge, reminding me of the looming Meet and Confer with James and that smug, self-absorbed yuppie, arrogant, golf-playing attorney of his. "Both of them should keep their arrogance behind their zippers where it belongs."
