Nih kesah hari tuh where Qeeb ada jamuan raya at school. Smangat dia bangun pagi tuh pakai baju melayu, sampin and mintak songkok summore. Luckily the teacher updated about jamuan raya in whatsapp group one day earlier. So sempat laa mommy nak get ready beli pape tok di bawa ke school. Because takot terhilang surat cam hari tuh where Qeeb tertinggal surat dalam bas skolah so i wasn't informed that there'll be a teacher's day at school.
Comel jer dorang duduk berderet makan ramai2. The school also organised a birthday celebration, so ada banyak food and cakes...if tgk gambar i think ada 3 bijik cakes at least.
Nih gambar Qeeb's classmates and schoolmates :) Meriah and colorful with all the kids wearing their baju raya. He had a wonderful time celebrating it with his friends. Thanks to the teachers and parents yang contributed macam2.

The Niue tourism authority says it would be very damaging to the nation if its only flagship resort, the Matavai, would not serve tourism purposes in future.
There are claims that some followers of the so-called Vastu Shastra are intending to buy the resort and allow only its members to stay.
Vastu Shastra seeks to harmonise the flow of energy in architecture, and the alleged followers have been staying in the resort for the past five months and pre-booked five rooms until next year.
The tourism authority director, Ida Talagi-Hekesi, says the Matavai provides half of Niue's tourist accommodation.
"If it is sold, that would be a great loss if it doesn't remain in the tourism accommodation room stocktake. It means that the 24 rooms, it will reduce the accomodation right down, and we really really do need our resort."
Ms Talagi-Hekesi also says Niue needs the rooms to keep Air New Zealand flying in.
Meanwhile, the acting premier, Fisa Pihigia, says he will consider revoking the visas of the followers if they do not provide information about who they are and what their agenda is.

In this series we are taking a look at different game algorithms using the simple game Color Walk as a sandbox for exploration and discovery. The last post was an introduction that described what Color Walk is, explained how to get it running on your own setup, and presented some brainstorming of possible algorithms to explore. This post will start digging into the simplest of those algorithms: round-robin, but first, we need to build up some tooling around the Color Walk JavaScript code to make it easier to test out our algorithms and benchmark their performance. We'll use the round-robin algorithm as a vehicle to help develop this tooling, so we have something to play with while getting the benchmark tooling up and running.

Explore Simple Game Algorithms with Color Walk: Part 1
A few years ago, Jennifer Dewalt did a project where she created 180 websites in 180 days, one every day for half a year, to learn how to program. These "websites" were actually web pages within one website, but the plan and the execution were still quite amazing. I watched on and off as she created page after page, learning all about web development in the process. One page in particular caught my interest: the simple game called Color Walk.
In this game there's a 20x30 grid of colored blocks in five different colors. The top left block is blank, and there are five colored buttons to choose from. Click a button, and the blank space will expand by removing the adjacent colored blocks corresponding to the button clicked. The goal is to clear the board in as few clicks as possible.

What Can One Do in a Year?
One year. Three hundred sixty-five days. Eight thousand seven hundred sixty hours. Seems like a lot of time, right? Where does it go, and what do we do with it all? If you're like me, you might spend the majority of that time sleeping, working, spending time with family and friends, doing chores, and eating, in roughly that order of time consumption. When all is said and done, I have about two hours a day of leisure time that I can do with as I please, although not every day. Maybe 300 days out of the year, let's say, I can do self-driven activities.
A Barely Adequate Guide to the Google Blogger API using Ruby
For some time now, I've been wanting to do some things with this blog that are just too tedious to do by hand. For instance, I'd like to download all posts with pictures to have a local copy, you know, just in case. Google leaves a bit to be desired in this regard with its backup feature. I would also like to get a word count of all of the posts I've written, just because I'm curious. These things would be done best with an API, so that's what this post is going to explore.
Chess Book Face Off: Best Lessons of a Chess Coach Vs. Pandolfini's Endgame Course
In my recent efforts to continue to improve at chess, I've read through a couple more books on the subject. As always, I read books in pairs so that I can get multiple perspectives on a topic and learn it more thoroughly. Sometimes the books cover nearly the same material, and other times—like in this case—the books are only loosely related. The first book is Best Lessons of a Chess Coach by Sunil Weeramantry, a FIDE Master and highly successful chess coach. This book is the kind of book that explains a handful of games in intimate detail. The second book is Pandolfini's Endgame Course by Bruce Pandolfini, a USCF National Master and a more famous highly successful chess coach. Being a book about endgames, it does not go through full games, but contains an extensive collection of endgame positions to study. So both books were written by accomplished chess masters and coaches, meaning they have at least that in common.
Chess Book Face Off: The Development of Chess Style Vs. Chess Endings
I've been getting back into chess lately, after taking a break for a couple years, and to get back up to speed, I've been reading quite a few chess books. I thought it would be fun to review and compare some of them, which is why I explored how to add JavaScript chess boards to the blog in my last article. Now I'll put that new feature to use while discussing a couple of chess books I've read recently: The Development of Chess Style by Max Euwe and John Nunn and Chess Endings: Essential Knowledge by Yuri Averbakh. Both of these books are somewhat older, being written in 1997 and 1993, respectively. That doesn't mean they're obsolete, because plenty of good chess books are also classics. Chess as a game is still progressing and theory changes, but the fundamentals are solid. Besides, one of these books is more about the history of chess, so it's only downside to being older is that it doesn't include more current developments.
A Barely Adequate Guide to Displaying Chess Games with JavaScript
I've done a few of these Barely Adequate Guides in the past, the idea being that I want to explore how to do something with code that I've never done before, and I'll figure it out while writing the post so that we can all see my thought process as I go about solving the problem of getting something new up and running. This time I want to bring together two things I love doing in my free time: programming and chess. I wouldn't say I'm an especially good chess player—I'm quite mediocre actually—but I love the game, and I love learning it and reading books about it.

X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE Director Gavin Hood Talks
As you know there has been a lot of internet talk regarding the production problems that have plagued the new Wolverine movie set. As you know I have been extremely vocal about these problems. I have heard of arguments between Gavin Hood and Fox studio chief Tom Rothman. I've heard about Rothman sabotaging the set while Hood was shooting in a different location. Then there is the whole Deadpool fiasco. So I am not the least surprised to here Gavin Hood tell a different version of these rumors. Why am I not surprised? Because Gavin Hood still wants to work in Hollywood, and he does not want to burn his britches with the boys in charge. So in my opinion here is Gavin Hood on damage control, and showing the big boys he can play nice. Which I totally understand, since he want's to continue to make movies in Hollywood.
"I am very fond of Tom. We didn't always agree, [but] we certainly never yelled at each other."
"Some of these fan sites have really been upsetting in that way, I have never had a stand-up fight with Tom Rothman. Never, ever in all his time with me — never. And that is a fact. It's quite upsetting to see how these things spiral."
Well, first of all I have yet to read an article that talks about Rothman and Hood in a stand-up fight. Hood goes on to explain what happens when he and Rothman are put in a room together.
"When he and I are in a room together debating, he's a very forceful personality — Tom Rothman — and I'm a fairly forceful personality. Did we discuss and debate what stylistically I was going to bring to the movie, and his expectations and mine? Of course. Of course you do that. And I hope it makes the movie better."
Debate is a classy word for argument. Hood goes on to say that Rothman is not out to ruin the X-Men' Franchise.
"This [movie] is a huge thing for the studio. Of course he doesn't want to ruin the franchise. What, he's gonna put a gun to his head? He has a huge amount riding on this movie, as do I."
He may have already put a gun to his head when he decided to change Deadpool, but that's my opinion. If this movie turns out to be good awesome! I want it to be good! But, if it's not good then we all know what happened... the rumors were true.

Hardcover(Large Print)
High school all-American Neely Crenshaw was probably the best quarterback ever to play for the legendary Messina Spartans. Fifteen years have gone by since those glory days, and Neely has come home to Messina to bury Coach Eddie Rake, the man who molded the Spartans into an unbeatable football dynasty.
Now, as Coach Rake's "boys" sit in the bleachers waiting for the dimming field lights to signal his passing, they replay the old games, relive the old glories, and try to decide once and for all whether they love Eddie Rake - or hate him. For Neely Crenshaw, a man who must finally forgive his coach - and himself - before he can get on with his life, the stakes are especially high.
JOHN GRISHAM played (at times) quarterback for the Chargers of Southaven High School, Southaven, Mississippi. He was not an All-American.

Cannot wait to get my hands on Bleachers. Grisham is the best author of all time. my family reads everything he writes.
This book was a waste of time and money.I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.it sucked
It took me about a week and a weekend to finish Bleachers, a 176 page book. Normally reading 176 pages would take me about 2 days maximum. I don't know why but I just couldn't get into Bleachers. I like football but the story didn't really seem to have a plot it was just the story of a guy who used to play football and is now coming back to town because his coach is in the process of dying. I guess it shows how strong, but hidden are the friendships of the team. How they all went their separate ways after high school but when are called back to the town they can just sit and reminisce about the "good ole' days" when they were on the best team in Spartan history.
What i realy like about this book is not just that it's about football, but becuase it shows things about people that they do but do not see. Howthey get so careless all they want to do is hurt someone, or how we dwell on things. I realy liked how the coach pushed and pushed, until he was fired. It truely shows how he feels about his passion for football. He loved football so much if someone died becuase of him he would go on. Anyone who says this it's not worth picking up, needs to check themselfs. I highly recommend this book to read.
This book will get your attention form the beginning. The book¿s name is Bleachers by John Grisham. The genre of this book is sports fiction. Bleachers is about old football players that come back to their home town and share the latest scuttlebutts and memories I liked this book because it kept my attention thought the whole book by using cool stories and good vocabulary. John Grisham played football for a Southern Mississippi high school football team. I would give this book a five out of five ratting. What will you give this book?
Short, can be read in one day or less. It spans the nature of those we knew in our grown yup years. Reminds me a lot of my own athletic career. The last 30-40 pages had be in tears to the extent that my shirt was soaked when i finished the book. Got me to read more of Grisham which i had not done before.
John Grisham, I have loved your books. But this is the first I hated. Thankfully it was only 134 pages. It lacked any plot, intrigue and substance. Not worth the time.
The book that I read was called Bleacher. The author of this book is John Grisham. John Grisham was played quarterback for the Chargers of his High School in Southaven, Mississippi. That's why he wrote this book. This book is about a guy named Neely Crenshaw who is divorced and was an all American quarterback in high school. Neely Crenshaw has been gone from Messina for fifteen years. He and his fellow teammates returned to Messina to bury his old football coach, Coach Eddie Rake who molded the Messina Spartans into an unbeatable football dynasty. Now his son is the new football coach, and the whole community is there to replay games and relive old memories. The point of this book was to entertain the reader about somebodies football life. The author is trying to us his life story about what happen in his life. This book is about his life story and what happen during it when he was in high school. The book was really out of order. The author could have explained the characters a little more. The author could have wrote it in chapters rather than write the chapters as days. The author could also do is write the story better in third person. The people I would recommend this book to people who like sports books. The audience would need to know a little bit of football and some rules of going to college. The audience would also need to know about what happens during life stories.
I really enjoyed reading this book. The storyline was very different, but a good one. If you do not like high school football in a small town, this book may not be to your liking. It does have a few sad moments, but very well written.
The book "The Bleachers" is about an all American high school football team. Their coach Rake is dying. If you would steep one foot on his field you would get yelled at so much you would wish u didn't do it. At the beginning of the practice season he would make the players run the track and they had to run at least 21 laps. If they couldn't run at least 21 laps they would be taken off the track and they could go back the next day and try again. He was a coach that didn't like his linemen big and fat. Neely Crenshaw was a quarter back and everyone loved him. When he left for college everyone in the town missed him. He swierd he would never go back to that town as long as his couch was alive. He finally comes back to the field and sits on the bleachers with some of his buddy's. Their names were Paul, silo, and him. Lots of people were at the field siting on the bleachers talking about their times playing for coach rake. Rabbit turned on the lights and kept them on until couch rake was dead. There was another quarter back there that took Neels number 19 when Neely graduated. He ran 81 laps and set a new school record. It thought the book was really interesting because I like sports and they are just waiting for coach rake to die. I also thought the book was thrilling because you can picture how he ran the players and how he yelled at them to make them a better team. It is taken place in a fictional town called macina. To learn about the last part of the book you can check it out at your school library or you can buy the book.
I always related John Grisham with lawyer thrillers (The Client, The Pelican Brief ect.) but this one surprised me. I read it when someone I worked with had it & loaned it to me. I was enthralled from the get-go, especially when at the time I read it my 10 year high school reunion was right around the corner. While it was in paperback at the time I read it, I purchased it on E-book for my Nook. It's as good now as it was when I read it 9-10 years ago. All the characters were very easy to relate to. It's a good story about fallen glory & regrets, and most importantly, forgiveness. All in all this book is right up there with Friday Night Lights when it comes to football, especially high school football.

Panic button device and app launched
A real-time SOS response app and device called the Panther Mobile security solution, is now available.
It was developed by local company Digistar Corporation Bhd with US company React Mobile Ltd.
The Panther Mobile is a 2-in-1 solution that comes in the form of a mobile app and a small oval-like device with an easily accessible panic button.
In order for the device to work, it has to be paired with a smartphone via Bluetooth.
Users also have to install the companion app which is available for Android and iOS.
If the phone is not within reach in the pocket or handbag, the companion Sidekick device offers an easily accessible panic button to send a SOS signal.
At the same time, the Sidekick device can be tracked via GPS, providing accurate information of the user's current location.
According to Digistar Corporation Bhd group CEO Datuk Wira Lee Wah Chong, what makes Panther Mobile Sidekick unique is the integration with the company's existing Panther911 CMS (central monitoring system) which operates round the clock.
Once the panic button is triggered, the system will immediately send a distress call to family members, local authorities and the police.
An e-mail and SMS will also be send to the family members with the location of the distress signal.
Lee said that Digistar has six CMS command centres nationwide, one each in Kuala Lumpur, Melaka, Johor, Penang, Sabah and Sarawak, serving around 6,000 existing residential and business customers.
The Panther Mobile Sidekick is available only on a subscription basis with two options available.
The first package comes in the form of a twelve month contract at RM35 per month. Meanwhile the two year contract costs RM30 per month.

It looks easy to shop for homes: you go online and search for dream houses on realtor.com, Zillow.com, and all the other real estate websites.

Before you hit the "contact realtor" button on the web page, consider these factors:
What can I afford?
How much do I need for a down payment?
What is the initial deposit/earnest money?
What are the property taxes?
What will it cost to insure this home?
What do I look for in a real estate agent?
How do I estimate my purchase closing costs?
What should I watch for during the closing process?
Why do I need a real estate lawyer?
What do I need to know about moving?
What do I need to buy for my home?
What should I know about my town's ordinances?
If you buy a home, contact the Homer Law Firm as soon as you have a contract in hand. Our experienced real estate attorneys will guide you through the process of the purchase until the sale closes. We look forward to assisting you.

A garden make over would make a big difference to myself & husbands life. My husband is unable to work now due to an illness. We had work done on our house last year and would have had money left over to do our garden but we were defrauded by a cowboy builder which ended up costing us £9000 more and used up all of our savings. We have a wonderful view from our garden so it would just be lovely to be able to sit out in the garden and enjoy the view and give my husband somewhere to relax with our dogs.

THOROFARE, NJ--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 12, 2000--Checkpoint Systems, Inc. (NYSE: CKP), the leading provider of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to libraries, today announced that it has been awarded a contract to install its Intelligent Library System(tm) (ILS) at the Santa Clara City Library in California. As the leading company in RFID library sales, Checkpoint has RFID systems installed in 17 sites and has tagged over one million books to date.
The Santa Clara City Library, situated in the heart of the Silicon Valley, joins Farmington Community Libraries in Michigan, Rockefeller University Library in New York, the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, and others, who have reported dramatic results in reducing materials handling time by as much as 75%.
Checkpoint's ILS, built upon leading-edge RFID technology, is based on the Company's vast experience in library loss prevention and RF technology. The ILS provides libraries with patron self-check-out and check-in, inventory control, circulation management, and loss-prevention, all integrated into a single system. The ILS can eliminate the labor of manual material checkout and return processes, while controlling losses through electronic article surveillance.
"We're currently building an 80-thousand-square-foot library and wanted to be sure that the library system we selected takes full advantage of the most sophisticated technology available, that's why we opted to work with Checkpoint," said Karen Rollins Duffy, City Librarian, Santa Clara. "By automating our check-in/check-out process, Checkpoint's ILS will free up our staff to interact with patrons and provide a hands-on level of service that would otherwise not be possible."
Checkpoint's ILS is a single technology pioneered by the leader in wireless tracking systems for libraries of the future. It functions via a unique circulation circuit(tm) embedded inside the collections. This circuit operates its own local area network (LAN) and functions as a security alert, triggering an alarm when books are removed from the library without permission.
"Helping the Santa Clara City Library make its transition to a library of the future is an honor for us," said Emmett Erwin, Director of the Library Division at Checkpoint Systems. "We've spent the last 30 years developing library technology; the culmination is the Intelligent Library System(tm) which is in direct response to the automation and theft protection needs of libraries around the world."
Checkpoint Systems, Inc., a $750 million multinational company, is a pioneer in the development of RFID technology for libraries and other industries, and is the world's leading provider of digital radio frequency electronic article surveillance (RF EAS) systems. The company also markets laser and thermal printers and CCTV systems designed to improve efficiency, reduce costs and provide value-added solutions for customers across many markets and industries. Checkpoint Systems, Inc.'s web site is located at www.checkpointsystems.com.

Inspire Me Today - Today's Brilliance from Dylan Mahalingam
Expand Messages
Inspired Quote of the Day™We are all unique, have our own strengths and skills, but what good is it if all we can do is accept our diversity? What we really need to do is not only accept and appreciate our differences but leverage our diversity. ~ Dylan Mahalingam
Today's Brilliance™
Dylan MahalingamDylan is the young cofounder of Lil' MDGs, a unique international development and youth empowerment organization.If I could share 500 words of wisdom to summarize what I've learned so far in life, these are the important things I'd want to pass along to others...In 2006, something that I had been wanting for what felt like forever finally happened. It was the year my family got a dog. We named her Nestlé. I had known that there would be changes when Nestlé joined our family, but there was one change that I never anticipated.Before we brought Nestlé home, I remember reading tons of books and watching TV shows like the Dog Whisperer.... My family wanted to know how to take care of our new (and first!) puppy.These books told us that we should assert our role as master right from the start. It made perfect sense, until Nestlé actually came home with us. I found myself attending to Nestlé's every little need. I was filling and cleaning her food bowl, making sure she had clean water and taking her out on walks.Master? It didn't seem to fit. There she was getting every need taken care of without ever having to lift a paw. I realized that no one can ever call themselves the master of any dog, or any pet for that matter.I started thinking about other relationships in my life, and realized that I never was and never will be anyone's master. I will always be serving someone at every moment in my life. I also realized that is true of us all.Parents serve children and children serve parents, siblings, and friends. Heads of big corporations serve employees, teachers serve students and principals serve teachers and students. Presidents serve the entire country!Bringing Nestlé home ended up being a transforming experience for me. My interactions with Nestlé helped me understand that it does not matter what our title is, what qualifications we possess, which country we are from, or how we view ourselves in comparison to others.Our position, no matter who we are or where we live, is and will always be one of service. In fact, as we get older and gather more experience and respect our capacity to serve and help others grows. So if we can all realize and accept that our role will always be one of service, we can all have what we are hankering for - peace.

Claude LeClerc's Austin sculpture To Mother with love, depicts a common affection between a mother and her children. This beautiful molded piece is mounted on a wooden base and its simplicity yet unique form makes it a subtle décor for any home. The effort placed on this piece by the artist, makes it an outstanding piece that somehow tells a story of motherly love.
This unique Austin sculpture, to mother with love stands at 15 inches tall, 9 inches wide and 4 inches deep. Seen from the photos, it stands on a brown wooden base and finishing effect is of light terracotta. When this sculpture was out of the box, it had a golden plaque attached in front of the wooden base. You'll find the sculpture's information inscribed on it (name and year). Unfortunately, due to wear and tear, this piece doesn't have the plaque anymore. It is dated 1978.
Even though this Austin sculpture to mother with love is about 36 – 37 years old, yet it carries a timeless ambiance and it's a star Deco in some homes today. Love and affection between a mother and her children is one thing that never goes out of fashion, which is exactly what this sculpture depicts. One thing to note is the children. Most people assume that its two girls, but the figure clinging to the mother's skirt is actually a boy. The artists Claude LeClerc sometimes apply his ceramic techniques on his sculptures and this piece was not an exception. You can see the emphasized made on the sleeves and skirt of the mother's gown.
In terms of availability, most of us already know that these sculptures are no longer made. They can be found on Ebay, Etsy and other sites that trades in collectible and vintage home decor or sculptures.

by Arthur Anderson & Daniela Raggetti,
MorganAnderson Consulting
On behalf of marketer clients, MorganAnderson periodically draws upon its own and reliable third-party intelligence to trend global advertising spending and agency economics. In this white paper, we provide trends from 2009 through 2014.
We intend this to help client-side marketing, procurement, finance, and legal with budgeting and to aid their negotiations with marketing services agencies. In the paper, we deal with advertising spending trends, agency economic trends, and the substantial link between GDP trends and advertising spending. We may update 2009 trend data as agency holding companies report their actual 2009 results and indicate what 2010 may look like.
Macro Trends: Advertising Spending
- Global advertising spending by clients in 2009 suffered the sharpest decline in any single year since the Great Depression
- The outlook for advertising going forward is one of subdued recovery across spending/media disciplines
- Media spending in the US declined by 12.9% in 2009 as estimated by Zenith
- 2010 will see a decrease in total spending although we anticipate healthy growth for digital/interactive, events, and PR
- Global growth for digital/interactive in 2010 is estimated at 9.2% by Zenith
At Table 1 below, comparative U.S. and Global advertising media spending growth is set forth for 2008 through 2011, and we work with estimates by three major global media agencies.
The most likely economic scenario for the U.S. is a slow-paced recovery with high unemployment. This will keep growth in check by hampering consumption in the mid-term, especially in the U.S. where 70% of GDP is, directly or indirectly, generated by private consumption. Weak consumption means lower revenue for marketers, and this is a concern of many major global advertisers. Many industry analysts expect "frugality to stay, among consumers, for a long time" in the U.S. Sir Martin Sorrell of WPP, when he announced a drop in profit of 47% for 2nd Q. 2009 at WPP, noted that it would be some time before marketers begin to spend as they did several years prior. It will be interesting to see what the chairmen of the holding companies predict for 2010 when they report upcoming 2009 final data.
Globally, projections for 2009 of steep revenue decline in the advertising industry have been industry specific (e.g., finance, automotive, and business travel), but not for others (e.g., retail, consumer goods, and value products). Of the 79 countries covered by Zenith, 25 were still growing, in 2009, with many of these small, young markets, but it also included some large markets such as China and India. China will likely soon overtake the UK to become the world's 4th largest advertising market, while India will overtake Norway, Mexico, and The Netherlands to become the 14th largest. Predictability of timing, however, is poor.
Digital/internet advertising was holding up better than expected in 2009, and its characteristics have proved more attractive in a recession than traditional disciplines. Internet ad expenditure is forecast to grow 10.1% globally in 2009, and Zenith by 2011 expects it to account for 15.1% of all ad expenditure, up from 10.5% in 2008. Most of this growth is expected to come from paid search. In the U.S., search advertising is expected to grow 20.0% in 2009, with traditional display expected to grow 3.0% and classified 1.8%.
There is said to be an 81% relationship between advertising spending and GDP and other macroeconomics, and we provide data to 2014 at Table 5 below.
Micro Trends: Agency Economics
Although some agencies are reluctant to provide granular data on their economics even to clients, confident agencies provide such information in the spirit of transparency if they are given reasonable assurances that non-disclosure will be honored. It is fortunate, however, that useful agency economic information is obtainable from publicly available reports and modeling, notwithstanding whether an agency provides data to its clients or not.
In this white paper, we focus on comparative agency profit margins as the metric to use in this paper for trending. Other metrics we can use are comparative staffing equivalents (FTE), agency salaries, agency overheads, and cost per defined deliverable.
At Tables 2, 3, and 4 below, we trend pre-tax profit margin comparables for a) global holding companies, b) regional operating agencies, and c) large operating agencies in two major markets, U.S. and UK. Although profit margin is but one element of agency compensation and the tip of the iceberg at that, it is one both agencies and clients give undue focus to these days. Information for these tables was obtained by publicly available sources.
In summary:
- For the public global holding companies, Publicis and Omnicom exceed WPP pre-tax profit margins and these three exceed IPG margins (Table 2)
- For large operating agencies by region, North America profit margins exceed Europe and AsiaPacific/Other margins (Table 3)
- For large agencies in two major markets, U.S. profit margins exceed UK margins (Table 4)
Tables 2, 3, and 4 were compiled by MorganAnderson using its modeling, publicly-filed SEC reports, UK government company reports, Morningstar, trade publications, and other sources deemed reliable by MorganAnderson.
It is likely that several years will pass before agency profit margins return to levels of the mid 2000s. Perhaps this will not happen for a number of years. However, if non-traditional disciplines such as digital/interactive, events, and PR experience strong growth, as seems likely to happen, and if innovative agency business models are adopted, agency profit margins could be the beneficiary.
Macro Trends: GDP & Related Metrics
Given there is an 80% correlation between GDP and advertising spending, it is highly useful to look at trends in GDP and related macroeconomics (Chart 5).
Most macro indicators for major (OECD) countries point to the end of the most severe recession in decades as growth has resumed in recent months, albeit at a moderate pace and with sharp differences between countries. The recovery was driven by the broadest, biggest and fastest demand-supporting government response known. Failing banks were supported by trillions of public cash and guarantees while central banks drastically reduced interest rates. These extraordinary interventions, carried out consistently by the major world economies, helped control panic, support the financial system, and ebb the fall in private demand. Area-wide unemployment is expected to continue to rise well into 2010 and to fall only modestly in 2011 from its peak. Some see a double dip recession as well although there is certainly no consensus on this.
The expectation is for moderate recovery going forward. 2014 Global GDP is expected to underperform 2007 for both advanced and developing/emerging markets (Chart 5). Given the substantive relationship between advertising spending and GDP, as new GDP numbers are reported, we intend to update these trends and correct to market.

just gonna put this here...
i'd almost buy it blind at this point
really curious
i have this fantastical dream of performing with only monome gear...so let that be your rationale if you need a catalyst
I think i'd probably buy a monome mixer too! Im in love with the minimalist aesthetic
These look pretty special too;
Am I the only one here who love faders? Feel lost amongst all these rotary mixers ^^
i love faders
hopefully tehn's mixer proto has encoders and faders for different functions
i love faders, too. it's one of my favorite aspects of the buchla music easel design.
Count me in the fader love camp. Especially for a performance mixer, it's difficult to adjust more than two knobs at the same time, but ten fingers/ten faders is a pretty useful proposition.
let me link one of the most outstanding performances on the easel
i shot that video -- that's my wife!
oh I see! the world is smaller than what one thinks
MixerRemixRem XiRe MixEx RimEx I Mr
Curious if anyone has any video examples (or even artist recommendations) where part of their performance is using multiple faders simultaneously. This could be just mixing levels, or something more like midi faders controlling a max patch.
I've definitely done this (and seen this) in the mixing context, but never in a performance context. I've also learnt, mostly out of necessity, how to turn multiple (2 and sometimes 3) knobs with one hand due to the nature of my performances. This is not to talk down on faders - I really like them in some contexts (mixing, and modulation matrixing like on the easel) but I've just never really considered them a 'performance' tool.
I think a lot of this comes from the DJ experience, where the ability to cut&fade quickly with a fader is much more performable than a knob, while more nuanced than a simple switch. I rarely see DJs use faders for level setting in a club context though, preferring to use the Gain control to level match, then just fade in/out on the fader. All this being said I did just recently see Virgo Four DJ and exclusively use the crossfader to blend between tracks, though I can't say I was impressed by the sonic outcome - it felt like he didn't have enough control over the ends of the fader - a situation where a knob would likely have been a better tool.
I know four tet used to (and probably still) have a fader mixer at the center of his performance rigg, fed with signals from ableton, a monome 64 playing mlrv or synchronized beats, 2 loopers (that are themselves fed with parts of the whole tracks or seperate leads and transformed into loop FX send or other weird stuff), and a small old computer just running a basic programm to mangle manually with samples. Most of the performance consist in juggling with all that through a little mixer which allows him to improvise from a prewritten canvas.
Now that's something I remember but there must be other examples, a mixer is a wonderfully musical thing, even if (or because) it's very basic, I used it a lot live with my previous bands/projects.
you're thinking of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KIvnLBF7vU
I happened to see this one earlier this week:
The mixer performance starts at around 5:10. And this one is only 4 sliders since it's with a four track, but maybe it's in the ballpark:
I've done it live, but I haven't played out in several years and there's no video of me that I know of. I could never muster much accuracy turning more than one knob per hand simultaneously, particularly if I wanted one to go up while the other went down. And I generally found faders helped with visualizing what was going on mid-set. Downside can be it's easier to slip and bang a fader out of place. And knobs can make for a much more compact mixer, which is a compelling compromise for less control.
I was going to grab a few videos but in each one i found my memory was faulty and the artists were using the pots not faders for performance
I couldn't find any good videos (quickly) but there's a huge performance practice in live diffusion of acousmatic music. Basically using (typically) 8 channels on a board (or a custom controller of some kind) to dynamically spatialize the (typically 2 or 4 track) audio across a huge (typically 40+) speaker system.
I suppose it's part of the nature of that performance practice to not document the diffuser, as it's a purposefully disembodied (no stage/lighting) performance practice.
Having seen much of this kind of (acousmatic) music "performed" live I can say that it's a very flowing/intricate/virtuosic approach to fader controls, full of subtle and dynamic movements.
A talk from Dennis Smalley about space in music :
Actually here's a more modern example in a composed context by Dan Tramte. You can see the notation he's used for the fader/mixer movements:
A full performance with score following:
And more about the piece/notation:
i end up tweaking pots/encoders simultaneously all the time but rarely need multiple faders on the few songs when I've used that technique, i admit, the results were unique and enjoyable but there's no video evidence
after surveying my room:the two mixers i currently use on every song only have rotary controls (mackie 402 and aleph)
the two mixers i use occasionally as vca's are split...but i rarely use the knobs after setting them once (vestax 06 and cold mac)
my largest mixer (mackie 1402) has both types of control and when i move past utility mixing to perform a song, i usually route the aux and feedback into channels so that I can play the faders instead of the knobs
In the past i've also treated certain fx like mixers to perform and, again, it has been split: the way i use the hexacomp is all about the faders, but both the peq and ptd have very playable oversized pots
based on all that, i feel like like I could live with less faders than knobs (or no faders) especially if that would keep production costs lower or reduce the footprint of the enclosure
It really all depends on what you're doing with your gear in the end, most of my music / musical performances are based on several atmospheres that I merge together or isolate, and most of my FX rootings tend to take into account the volume of the other tracks because they're inter-dependant and for that, the immediate visualisation of faders allow me to know right away where I am in my general balance and it feels better to me than knobs even with light visualisations or finished course. Then again, I'm pretty sure you could do all that just as well with knobs, but yeah, I'm a Fader person (see I didn't even know I was before this thread!).
PS: I still couldn't live without knobs either though.

I just bought a Lumia 640 LTE online, but unfortunately it is a MTN network phone, but that's not a problem as the phone works with my Vodacom prepaid SIM LTE (power plus) inserted. The only problem is that when I ask for the phone settings via *111# (on Vodacom SA profile)(*111# does not offer settings on Vodacom LTE profile), my previous old phone (nokia 5310) still shows up - plus when I go to *Settings - Phone - My phone number* it states it as Unknown. My question is how do I get this sorted out. Must I go to a Vodacom shop and ask for help there?

Harold P. Ford, who joined the Central Intelligence Agency shortly after its creation and became one of its most influential analysts, died Nov. 3 in Gaithersburg, Md. He was 89.
The cause was complications of pneumonia, his son, John, said.
Mr. Ford was seen inside the agency as a master of the delicate art of interpreting ambiguous and contradictory intelligence reports and a dogged defender of the C.I.A.'s work from political pressure. He served in the 1980s as vice chairman and acting chairman of the National Intelligence Council, which writes the intelligence agencies' formal assessments of critical issues.
Mr. Ford was best known outside the C.I.A. for his public criticism of Robert M. Gates, the former C.I.A. director and current defense secretary, who he believed had deliberately slanted intelligence reports on the Soviet Union while working as a senior agency analyst. Mr. Gates has strongly denied the accusation, which Mr. Ford made in testimony in 1991 at Mr. Gates's confirmation hearing as C.I.A. chief and in comments to the news media in 2006 when Mr. Gates was named to head the Defense Department.
"It was tough for me because he'd been my boss and our personal relations were fine," Mr. Ford told The New York Times in 2006, recalling his 1991 Congressional testimony. "But the problem was the skewing of intelligence by him to suit what the consumer wanted to hear. I think there was no question about it."Continue reading the main story
Mr. Ford joined the C.I.A. in 1950 and worked in Asia, backing a covert operation to arm anti-Communist forces on the Chinese mainland during the Korean War, according to an account of his career that he wrote. He also served as a station chief in East Asia.
Later in his career, he was one of the first analysts to write about growing hostility between the two great Communist powers, the Soviet Union and China. He drafted many National Intelligence Estimates on Vietnam during the war there and later said he took pride in having resisted pressure to exaggerate the prospects for an American victory.
He left the C.I.A. in the early 1970s, going on to serve as program director of the Institute for the Study of Ethics and International Affairs at Georgetown University, as a consultant to the Senate Intelligence Committee and as an assistant on foreign and military affairs to Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware, now the vice president.
He returned to the C.I.A. in 1980 to join the National Intelligence Council and officially retired in 1986 because of ill health. But he continued to work as a contract historian for the agency for another decade.
His 1998 book, "C.I.A. and the Vietnam Policymakers: Three Episodes 1962-1968," argued that the pessimistic views of rank-and-file C.I.A. analysts on the war had proved accurate. The book received the George Pendleton Prize from the Society for History in the Federal Government.
Born in Los Angeles on March 23, 1921, Mr. Ford majored in history at the University of Redlands in California. He was commissioned as an ensign in the Naval Reserve in 1943, the year he married Barbara Josephine Day. He served as signal officer aboard the U.S.S. Alabama in the Pacific, and after World War II earned a doctorate in political science at the University of Chicago.
His wife died in 2008. Besides his son, of Honolulu, he is survived by two granddaughters.
In addition to his intelligence work, Mr. Ford took an interest in religious history and the relation of religion to public life. He worked on a novel recounting the Jewish rebellion against Roman rule and its influence on the Gospels. At the Woodstock Theological Center at Georgetown, he served as research director and co-edited a 1977 volume of essays titled "Ethics and Nuclear Strategy."Continue reading the main story

Meet my guest blogger, the Business Solutions Expert my friend and trusted colleague, Carol Frink.
Carol is the founder of Real Business Solutions, LLC a company she started to serve business owners struggling to stay in business who are ready to get the help and support you need to build the business and life you really love.
In our quarterly check-ins with each other this past month I asked her to address her passion in helping small business owners in their day to day struggles.
Thank you, Carol for sharing this important information with my community!
It is my pleasure Scott. My passion is helping business owners remove the struggle they are facing today and stay in business and get the results they want. It's a really big deal. Healthy business owners build healthy businesses and healthy families and healthy communities.
I hear from business owners all the time that they:
can't market their business,
can't pay themselves,
can't hire an employee,
can't attend a business conference
because they can't AFFORD to.
What that means is your checkbook balance is deciding all the things you can and cannot do because you don't understand the money piece of your business. You probably don't have a Stay in Business Money Plan.
The money piece of your business impacts YOU, your time, your goals, your products, and your marketing… virtually every piece of your business because if the money piece is not in order it's impossible for the rest of your business to be in order.
For each area of your business from business structure, to company goals, to products and services, to marketing to money, when there is not a clear plan or a lack of understanding, a money leak begins….the exact reason you think you can't "afford" to do something.
The truth is you need to understand the money piece of your business FIRST so you can see what is really going on in your business. The financial piece of your business tells a true story about what is happening in your business.
Most business owners are clear on their products and/or services but the business side of business… the money piece is what holds 99% of business owners back.
To stay in business and get what you want you must have both. This is a question all business owners must answer What's Your Stay IN Business Money Plan?
In business there are two pieces of business that must work very closely together… you and the money piece of your business.
When you get this right it is impossible to fail. However, until you get this right it is impossible to succeed.
Here are three tips to get you started with your Stay IN Business Money Plan.
- Reclaim your time. It is impossible to know what is happening in your business if you are running around like a chicken with your head cut off. Look at how you are really spending your time. Write it down! What is consuming the majority of your time?
- Make a list of all your monthly business expenses. Write them down. Then make a list of your monthly sales (aka revenue or income). What are your monthly sales and what are your monthly expenses?
- Get outside help. There are a lot of journeys in life you want to take alone and this is not one of them. It is really important that as you move forward in your business you get help and you get training and accountability and you get support. You've got to have somebody who's been down the road ahead of you and knows what they are doing and knows where the pitfalls are, who knows how to help you get where you're trying to go.
What is your Stay IN Business Money Plan?
Here are some symptoms that show up when your Stay IN Business Money Plan is missing or isn't working.
- You are working harder and harder in your business and still not getting the results you want.
- You are not paying yourself and know this MUST change.
- You want to be sure you're doing everything right in your business but you're not sure where to go for help.
- You don't understand the money part of your business and wish you knew what all the numbers mean.
- You are starting to get burned out by the never-ending workload and are thinking of giving up.
If your answer is YES these things are happening in my business! And I'm ready to get help now, click here to schedule a 30-minute Complimentary Stay IN Business Money Plan assessment with Carol (a $250 value).

I received the Power Tek Fire Talon, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. The Fire Talon comes with scissors; two flashlights; screwdriver; pocket knife; batteries; pliers; 2 bottle/can openers; wire cutters; wire strippers; and a flat head screwdriver. You also get a carrying case.
The pliers was a little hard to open at times. It also takes a little elbow grease to open the battery compartment. I don't have long nails, so it took a minute.
The knife is also spring loaded. Make sure to press the spring to set the knife back down.
The power talon is great for military use, camping, or a survival tool.
You can purchase the Fire Talon on Amazon. The Fire Talon is prime-eligible. You have to click on other offers. Power Tek is the only seller right now.

BullySongs: Behind Today's Top Hits
Andrew Bullimore, more commonly known as BullySongs, is the singer and songwriter behind many of today's top dance music hits. He's worked with everyone from The Chainsmokers to Armin van Buuren, and was recently featured as the vocalist on Benny Benassi's track "Universe." He also co-wrote "No Money" with Galantis, the vocals of which actually features his ten-year-old son as the lead vocalist. We proudly present his insight into his songwriting, performing, and making big tracks!
How did you and Benny Benassi get connected to work together on "Universe"? What was your favorite thing about working with Benny?
I already had the song idea for "Universe," and thought Benny would be the perfect fit for the song, so we sent our idea over and the rest, as they say, is history. Benny is tenacious, he won't rest until he has the best out of every song, and I think we achieved that with "Universe."
What was the inspiration for the track? Where did the vocal fit into the production process of the track?
The vocals came first on this song. We had some chords already, but when we sent the vocals over to Benny he really changed up the chord pattern and I think the result is really interesting. That's why I love collaborations on records like this because I would never have thought of those chords Benny did.
What do the lyrics mean to you?
These lyrics mean a lot to me. The title "Universe" literally came from me and my kids saying how much we love each other. It would start with "I love you the size of this room," then "the size of a football pitch," etc. And we would always end up at the "I love you as big as the universe!" So really the song is my message to them that no matter where they go, what they do in life, I will love them forever.
What's it been like performing with Armin van Buuren across the world? Do you have a favorite show performing with him or a favorite moment where he played your music?
Performing with Armin has been insane. It's the biggest show of its kind in the world, still pinching myself I'm involved. One of my favourite moments this year was actually when Armin played the Galantis "No Money" remix (featuring my son's vocal) and then my song "Freefall" in his Tomorrowland set this year. To have a father and son both appear in a DJ set of this magnitude is a first for sure and a proud moment.
How'd you come to work with Galantis on "No Money"?
Me and one of my favourite collaborators, Digital Farm Animals, cooked up a hook together one afternoon and got my son Reece to lay vocals on it. We sent it over to Galantis who heard the hook and freaked, they worked their magic on the production and voila, "No Money" was born! Still crazy to think how well it's done!
What was the inspiration and creative process like for that track and how did you guys decide to feature your son's vocal?
It actually happened really quickly, the best ones always do. It's hard to explain where the inspiration came from as when it comes it feels like it's writing itself. What came was a hook about standing up to a bully. We wanted to root for the underdog who finally overcomes fears and stands up for themselves. My son Reece had already recorded vocals for Pierce Fulton's "Lost Time," so we knew he would be the best voice to deliver the hook. It's amazing being in the studio with your ten-year-old who smashes a vocal like that, so proud!
What was it like working with Don Diablo, Steve Aoki, and Lush & Simon on "What We Started"? How does having so many artists involved change your workflow?
It definitely didn't affect the workflow. Me and a great writer called Josh Record wrote the song over some chords the guys sent over, and then each of the guys added their magic to create the end result. There's a lot of people involved in the record which can sometimes be an issue, but this one came out incredible.
Throughout the summer those guys would often sing that song themselves on the mic while standing in front of the DJ booth, including at some of the biggest festival stages of the year like Tomorrowland. It was clear that the song meant a lot to all of them. Do you take extra pride knowing that you helped to create a song with that meaning to the artists?
I'm super proud that it means so much to them. It means a lot to me too - the song was created as an anthem for those that dream big and started with nothing. Music can seem a very hard road to choose, but to be able to create something positive for the world every day is a blessing. Everyone has a journey, a story to tell, and this song is for those that took that road and achieved something that means a lot to them.
What does the fall hold for you? Are there any artists in the dance world that you hope to work with in the future?
I'm in the studio every day writing, and when I'm not, I'm travelling with Armin around the world. I have a lot in the pipeline, so keep your ear to the ground for new music. I would love to do something with Martin Garrix - really digging what he's doing right now.

Info concerning Kirkwood Community College medical programs, and registering for elective lectures. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? You can enter nursing with either an associates degree or BSN. As a licensed vocational nurse (LVN), you may provide patient care under the supervision of a registered nurse (RN). Concentrating on Kirkwood Community College medical programs, for example, you may gain an advantage in job recruiting on-campus. Check with the medical assisting department for course registration deadlines, and training program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Kirkwood Community College.
Healthcare jobs such as Registered Nurses, LPN's, LVN's and related Vocational Technicians provide over 15 million jobs in the United States alone. Most healthcare workers have jobs that require less than 4 years of college education, such as health technologists and technicians, electronic medical records specialists, medical insurance billing, health information technicians, diagnostic medical sonographers, and medical insurance billing. Founded in 1898, the American Hospital Association provides education for health care leaders and is a source of information on health care issues and trends.
The outlook for technical medical careers is especially bright. Opportunities for employment for medical laboratory technicians are expected to increase by 10% to 20% in the next eight years. The increasing number of elderly people is seen as a factor in this growth. As people age they have more medical problems, and hospitals will require more laboratory technicians to perform lab work for them. Aside from a good salary, most medical personnel receive comprehensive medical and dental benefits, as well as retirement plans. Beyond major requirements within the medical assisting department, you may consider CSU San Bernardino immunology as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

Pet Products
Whether you've just acquired a new pet or you have an entire menagerie full of animals, you're going to need different pet products. Pet products can be divided into absolute necessities, into health, and into recreation. For example, a leather or rawhide chew toy is not an absolute necessity, but it would help maintain your dog's health, because the rawhide chew toy helps the dog keep his teeth sharp and clean. If his teeth are clean, they won't rot, and eventually require a visit to the vet. Yes, an animal's teeth can rot if not properly maintained, which can be very painful for the dog, and could make it difficult for them to eat, which could lead to even later health problems. Recreation toys can also be considered healthy toys. A lot of the way cats and dogs play also count as serious exercise for them, as well as keeping their innate skills sharp. For example, a golden retriever loves to play fetch because they are bred to retrieve.
Pet products will range in price and quality. But the thing about animals is that they don't really need expensive items to be happy. You should buy quality where it counts—food that promotes good health, and a collar and leash that will not break easily, especially if the dog strains against the leash, or is in the habit of biting or clawing at the collar. You can find afford pet products in big box stores, in pet stores, and online through various vendors that cater to pets and their needs.

There's this new TV show, Jamestown, about women who were shipped to America to marry the new colonists in 1619. Guardian critic Mark Lawson complained it was somehow ~unrealistic to depict 17th century women having "modern" thoughts like… objecting to rape? And making jokes?
This is so stupid, sexist, and shortsighted, FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS:

Today 4/3/17 per usual I led jury nullification outreach in Brentwood.
Jury nullification is where a jury decides not to convict in order to prevent a defendant from suffering because of a victimless crime. Victimless crimes are actions which could result in a criminal conviction, yet harm no one. Applying that law, either in that particular case or for that law generally, would yield an unjust result, and jurors therefore have a right (and moral obligation) to acquit the defendant. Jury rights activists such as myself inform jurors of this right by distributing pamphlets and additional information outside of courthouses.
I was joined by Right's Brigade activist Ellie Andersen for this weeks operation. But we were informed by a couple potential jurors that were turned away that they had sent a email last Friday to let them know that jury selection this week would be canceled. Even though canceled we still got a few new potential jurors who didn't get that memo handing out 1 flyer. 7 selected jurors accepted our pocket constitutions thanking us for our efforts! Over all a very successful day for "being there for nothing" as one of them put. Liberty never takes a day off nor do we.

World-renowned artist Sacha Jafri painted a new Magical Realism canvas live at the Global Skills and Education Forum (GESF) from 18-19 March 2017. The fifth annual GESF – widely known as the 'Davos of Education' – was held at The Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai. The focus of this year's forum was how education can make 'real' global citizens, and Sacha Jafri painted two 6 ft by 6 ft canvases that visually represented global citizenship.
The canvases were stretched and framed to create a 4 metre by 2 metre diptych to form the centre piece of the GESF gala on Sunday evening. Distinguished guests at the gala hand-printed and signed the diptych which will then be sent to Jafri's London studio, where he will work on the painting to its completion. Jafri will then aim to collect prominent hand prints and signatures from Royalty and Heads of State as well as eminent leaders in the fields of music, film, the arts, sport, literature, education and politics. He will then further work these hand-prints back into the canvas. It will be auctioned in London later in the year with proceeds raised going to the Varkey Foundation, an education charity that supports global teaching capacity around the globe.
One of the world's leading contemporary artists and the pre-eminent pioneer of Magical Realism in art, in 2008 Jafri became the youngest artist in history to be offered a museum-based 10 year Retrospective World Tour. At the end of 2017 he will become the youngest artist to launch an 18 year Retrospective Global exhibition, which will travel to 28 countries and 36 cities.
Vikas Pota, CEO, Varkey Foundation said, "We are delighted that such a renowned and talented artist such as Sacha Jafri will be joining us at GESF 2017. The arts play a key role in education – not only have studies shown that exposure to the arts gives students a creative outlet, but integrating arts education with other subjects can help raise achievement levels across the curriculum."
"Arts education also helps children connect with the wider world, improving a sense of belonging and community cohesion, and with the theme of this year's GESF being how education can help foster global citizenship, it's fitting that Sacha will be painting a canvas that visually represents this."
Sacha Jafri said, "It is an honour and a privilege to be asked to create this painting for the GESF. We are all global citizens; part of a universal consciousness, but to be a good global citizen one must live one's life in a state of grace, of humility and truth; respect and kindness. From that state of grace something magical arises within the individual that nurtures the world. I hope my painting will bring joy, and inspiration and encourage others to live their lives in a state of grace."
About Sacha Jafri
Sacha Jafri graduated from Eton College in 1995, The Kent Institute of Art and Design in 1996, and gained a first class honours Master of Arts Degree from Oxford University in 1999. Since then he has had sell-out shows throughout Europe, America, Russia, The Middle East, Asia and The Far East.
Jafri's high profile commissions include the painting of the official 1000 day countdown to the 2012 London Olympic Games unveiled by HRH Princess Anne at the Natural History Museum; a life-size painted baby elephant sculpture for the 2010 Elephant Parade in London; the official painting to celebrate Sir Alex Ferguson's 25 years of excellence at Manchester United; a hand-painted TT for Audi; the official F1 Monaco Grand Prix painting commissioned by Prince Albert of Monaco which sold for $850,000; the much celebrated David Beckham painting, sold in 2009 for $500,000 subsequently valued at $1.4 million; the commission from Barbara Broccoli for the painting to launch the Casino Royale Bond film; a live painting created at the Royal Albert Hall in front of a 5,000 strong audience; and a commission to paint the 22 most influential living Muslims including such luminaries as Mohammed Ali, Zinedine Zidane, HRH Sheikh Mohammed al Maktoum of Dubai, HRH Sheikh Khalifa Al Nahyan ruler of the UAE, HH Prince Alwaleed AlSaud, and Omar Sharif.
He is the first artist to be featured on the front cover of both the New York Times and The Financial Times magazines. His works are some of the most collectable and sought after of the world's contemporary artists. Collectors include Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, Sir Bob Geldof, Sir Paul Smith, George Clooney, and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Jafri was awarded Young Artist of the year in New York two years running and received the UN's Art and Humanity Award in Belgrade for his artistic and humanitarian work having raised over US $40 million from the sale of his work for various charities around the globe.

A different perspective of the beautiful Barrier Canyon Style pictographs in the Ochre Alcove, also known as the Transformation Panel. This is certainly one of my favorite pictograph panels around. Many of the figures painted here are all pretty small compared to other Barrier Canyon Style panels, but the details are just amazing! I could just sit here all day and stare at this panel.
Archaeology: The study of human history and prehistory through the excavation of sites and the analysis of artifacts.
Photography: The art or practice of taking and processing photographs.
