Efficient Data Paging with the ASP.NET 2.0 DataList Control and ObjectDataSource
Last weekend I posted about how to implement super efficient data-paging using the new ROW_NUMBER() within SQL 2005 (which is supported with the free SQL Express edition and up) and the new ASP.NET 2.0 GridView/ObjectDataSource controls.
The BIG win with this approach is that it enables a web-application to efficiently retrieve only the specific rows it needs from the database, and avoid having to pull back dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of results to the web-server – only to then end up trimming them down to the 10-15 you end up displaying on a web-page (which is what most data-paging solutions do today). This can lead to significant performance wins within your application (both in terms of latency and throughput), and reduce the load on your database.
A few people have asked me to also provide a similar sample that demonstrates how to also implement efficient data-paging using an ASP.NET DataList or Repeater control instead (since neither of these have built-in paging UI semantics – but they do have the big benefit of allowing developers to have tight control over the html generated).
You can download a sample app that demonstrates how to-do this here.
For the scenario in the sample I basically "borrowed" the UI used on several popular ecommerce web-sites (although I tried to be a good CSS citizen, and implemented it using CSS rules instead of a table-heavy format):
It provides a list of product-categories on the left-hand side of the product listing page (the value in parenthesis indicates the number of products in each category), and then a 2 column layout for the products on the right (the default page size is 10 per page – although you can change this with a 1 line code-change if you want a different size). You can page back and forward throughout the listing, and are provided UI that helps indicate where you are in the paging series (the Previous/More links also auto-hide if you are on the first or last page of the results).
What is cool about the sample is that all of the data on the right-hand side of the screen (everything but the product category listing on the left) is retrieved with a single database call on each page view (so no multiple database trips). This single database call also only returns the product rows of data we end up displaying on the given data page (so with the screen-shot above it returns 10 rows of data instead of all 97 rows in that product category). This makes it super fast and efficient.
The entire sample to implement this app is only about ~20 lines of total code (this includes all the code in both the UI and data code layers).
How To Run and Use the Sample
To setup the sample, follow the below steps:
1) Have VS 2005 or Visual Web Developer and SQL Express installed. Visual Web Developer and SQL Express are both free downloads and provide everything you need to build, debug and run the application. You can download them from here.
2) Download this .zip file containing the sample. Expand it into any directory you want.
3) Using Visual Web Developer or VS 2005, choose File->Open Web-site and point to the root directory of the sample sub-directory (the one with the files in it).
4) Select the "Products.aspx" file and hit run.
This will bring up a page like the screenshot above that lists products and allows you to page back and forth throughout a product category listing (note that the next/previous buttons will auto-hide if you are at the beginning or end of the listing). Click on the left-hand side of the page to switch category listings.
To add a new product category, run the "AddData.aspx" page:
When you add a new product category, you can specify the number of products to add to it. You can add dozens, hundreds, thousands or tens of thousands of products (the AddData.aspx page names the products sequentially for you automatically so you can simulate different sized loads).
Because the data paging implementation in the sample uses an intelligent paging algorithm that only pulls the needed page rows to the web-server (by default only 10 rows per web request), your server won't start to run into performance issues even if you have a category or result with tens of thousands of product results.
How this Sample is Built
Here is what the solution directory looks like in Visual Web Developer:
It contains three pages – "Products.aspx", "ProductDetails.aspx", and "AddData.aspx" – that are each based on the "Site.master" master-page.
The database is implemented in Products.mdf and contains 2 simple tables – "Products" and "Categories" (note: you can create new SQL Express databases by select File->Add New Item->Database File). Here is what they look like in the database designer built-into the free Visual Web Developer IDE:
The Categories table contains a list of product categories, and the Products table contains a list of products contained within them. The ProductID column in the Products table is the primary key (and is automatically indexed), and an index has also been created on the CategoryId column (to create an index in the designer, just right click on a column and select "Indexes/Keys" to bring up the Index manager dialog). These indexes are going to be important if we put 100,000s of products of entries into our Products table.
The database has one stored procedure called "GetProductsByCategoryId" that was created using the ROW_NUMBER() approach described in David's blog to enable us to retrieve only the specific product data rows we want from the Products database (this means that we retrieve just the 10 or so products we need for the current page instead of the 1000 products that might be in the product category:
Notice that I'm also returning the total number of products in a category as well as the friendly name of the category as output parameters of the SPROC. Originally I was fetching these with a separate database call, but to demonstrate how to implement a nice performance optimization I'm returning them along with our 10 rows of data as output parameters here. The benefit of doing this optimization (versus a separate call to the database – which would actually be logically cleaner) is that it means you can retrieve all of the data you need with a single database query (which is also in turn only returning 10 rows of data). For a high-volume page like this where performance matters, it is a performance optimization to seriously consider.
The data access layer was then implemented using a DataSet designer (choose File->Add New Item->DataSet to create one), which allows us to avoid having to write any manual ADO.NET data access code – and instead just use strongly-typed data classes that are generated and maintained in the project automatically by defining methods/relationships using the DataSet designer.
The generated DataSet definitions for this sample are stored within the "MyDataLayer.xsd" file in the App_Code directory and contain two table-adapters (note: if you want to be advanced you can open and edit this XML file defining the DAL structure by right-clicking on it, choosing "Open With", and selecting the XML source editor):
The GetProductsByCategoryId() method goes against the SPROC we defined earlier, but all other methods are normal SQL queries defined within the DAL layer. Once defined using the DataSet designer, it is possible to write procedural code like the code below to invoke and use a method defined with our new DAL components:
int categoryId = 0;
int pageIndex = 0;
int pageSize = 10;
int numTotalProducts = 0;
string categoryName = String.Empty;
ProductsTableAdapter products = new ProductsTableAdapter();
MyDalLayer.ProductsDataTable products = products.GetProductsByCategoryId( categoryId,
ref categoryName,
ref numTotalProducts);
foreach (MyDalLayer.ProductsRow product in products) {
int productId = product.ProductId;
string productDescription = product.Description;
string productImage = product.ProductImage;
The DAL components generated are strongly typed with both type and data relationship validation built-in. You can add custom validation and/or code to the generated DAL components very cleanly via either code inheritance (subclass the DAL and override/add your own logic), or by adding a partial type to the project which will be compiled with the DAL (allowing you to avoid having to worry about the designer stomping on your code). Here is an article that covers the DataSet designer in more detail.
In my previous blog sample on efficient data paging using the GridView control, I showed how to optionally build a custom business façade that then wraps our generated DAL layer (which was built using the DataSet designer like above), and in turn provides another layer of isolation and separation. For this sample, though, I'm just going to use the DAL directly.
In terms of building the UI for the sample, the "Site.Master" page defines the outer "chrome" of all pages within the site, as well as the product listing on the left:
Within the Site.Master master page, I'm using an <asp:repeater> control to dynamically build the list of products and associated links (note the use of the new ASP.NET 2.0 Eval() data-binding syntax that provides a much terser way to evaluate data-binding expressions against the container parent):

<asp:repeater ID="ProductNav" DataSourceID="CategoryDataSource" runat="server">
<a href="Products.aspx?categoryid=<%#Eval("CategoryId") %>"><%#Eval("Name")%>
(<%#Eval("ProductCount") %>)
<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="CategoryDataSource"
runat="server" />
I'm using declarative data-binding with the new ASP.NET 2.0 ObjectDataSource control to bind the <asp:repeater> against the "MyDalLayerTableAdapters.CategoriesTableAdapter" class and its GetCategories() data method – which is one of the data classes defined and built for us as part of our DataSet designer based DAL.
The products.aspx page is then based on the Site.Master master page, and contains a <asp:DataList> control as well as some standard hyperlink html elements that we'll use to programmatically control paging navigation:
And in source-view:
A few quick things to point out above: 1) the ItemTemplate within the DataList is using <divs> and CSS for styling and positioning, 2) Eval() supports an optional data-formatting syntax that I'm using to format the price of each product as currency, 3) I've disabled view-state for the page (since we don't need it), and 4) the "tag-navigator" (bottom of the screen-shot) and tag-highlighting features in the free Visual Web Developer html source editor are pretty convenient to identify where your cursor is within the document (they dynamically update as you move the cursor around the html source).
As you can see above, I'm using declarative data-binding with the ObjectDataSource control for this DataList control as well (alternatively I could have just written procedural code to invoke the ProductAdapter, set the datasource, and call databind on the control). There are a couple of benefits to doing this the ObjectDataSource way – one is that it handles when to grab the data in the page lifecycle automatically. Another is that the WYSIWYG page designer will offer to automatically generate default data templates for you within the DataList above when you wire one up to the ObjectDataSource (it will reflect on the data from the returned method and generate a default template based on it that you can then easily edit). The last is that you can declaratively bind parameter values from other controls, querystring/form values, and the new ASP.NET Profile object – all without having to write any code yourself. You can see this in action with this last point – where I'm declaratively specifying that the CategoryId and PageIndex values should be pulled from the QueryString (and a value of "0" should be used if it isn't present).
The above markup is actually all we need in our page to bind to our DAL, retrieve 10 rows of data, and generate pretty output containing the results. If you ran a page with just this, you'd be able to page back and forth through the product listing data by manually adding a "CategoryId" and "PageIndex" value to the querystring of the page (for example: Products.aspx?CategoryId=0&PageIndex=2).
Rather than force people to manually do this, though, obviously what we want to-do instead is provide some built-in navigation UI to enable this. To accomplish this, I added a
 section at the bottom of the page with some hyperlinks that we'll use to page back and forth, as well as a label that I can use to output where the user currently is (specifically text that says something like: "1-10 of 56 Products").

 << Previous Products

More Products >>

<asp:Label ID="PagerLocation" runat="server" />
Note the use of standard hyperlinks above. They have a runat="server" attribute on them so that I can program against them on the server. I chose to implement the paging semantics within this sample using standard HTTP GET requests for everything – instead of using post-backs. Doing the navigation via post-backs would have been easier, but I wanted to enable users to easily bookmark pages (which will automatically persist the querystring values for me), as well as to enable cross-linking from things like search engines.
To dynamically update the hyperlink values (as well as other elements of the page), I added an event-handler to the ObjectDataSource so that I'll be called after it has fetched the data from our DAL (specifically: I'm using the "selected" event – I would have used the "selecting" event if I wanted to inject code immediately before the DAL was called):
protected void ProductDataSource_Selected(object sender, ObjectDataSourceStatusEventArgs e) {
// Retrieve output parameter values returned from the "GetProductsByCategoryId"
// method invoked by the ObjectDataSource control on the ProductsTableAdapter class
int productCount = (int) e.OutputParameters["CategoryProductCount"];
string categoryName = (string)e.OutputParameters["CategoryName"];
// Retrieve pageIndex and categoryId from querystring, pageSize pulled from ObjectDataSource
int pageIndex = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["pageIndex"]);
int categoryId = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["categoryid"]);
int pageSize = Int32.Parse(ProductDataSource.SelectParameters["NumRows"].DefaultValue);
// Update various page elements with data values
UpdatePagerLocation(pageIndex, pageSize, productCount);
UpdateNextPrevLinks(categoryId, pageIndex, pageSize, productCount);
Notice above that I am using the event argument (specifically its OutputParameters collection) to retrieve the output parameter results from the DAL method (e.ReturnValue provides access to the return value of the method).
I'm retrieving other HTTP GET parameters from the Request.QueryString collection. I'm using Convert.ToInt32() to convert them to integers instead of Int32.Parse() because Convert.ToInt32() will return a 0 value instead of throwing if the querystring isn't specified (and so it saves me having to-do a null check).
At the end of the event, I then call three helper methods that I'm using the update the page contents with the various data results. The last two are used to customize the html navigation
 above. Specifically, the "UpdatePagerLocation" method emits the location text ("1-10 of 44 Products"):
void UpdatePagerLocation(int pageIndex, int pageSize, int productCount) {
int currentStartRow = (pageIndex * pageSize) + 1;
int currentEndRow = (pageIndex * pageSize) + pageSize;
if (currentEndRow > productCount)
currentEndRow = productCount;
PagerLocation.Text = currentStartRow + "-" + currentEndRow + " of " + productCount + " products";
And then the "UpdateNextPrevLinks" just updates and auto shows/hides the  elements depending on whether we are at the beginning or end of the product listing (note: we are using the CategoryProductCount that was returned as an output parameter to calculate the total number of products in the category):
void UpdateNextPrevLinks(int categoryId, int pageIndex, int pageSize, int productCount) {
string navigationFormat = "products.aspx?categoryId={0}&pageIndex={1}";
PreviousPageNav.HRef = String.Format(navigationFormat, categoryId, pageIndex - 1);
PreviousPageNav.Visible = (pageIndex > 0) ? true : false;
NextPageNav.HRef = String.Format(navigationFormat, categoryId, pageIndex + 1);
NextPageNav.Visible = (pageIndex + 1) * pageSize < productCount ? true : false;
Last but not least, I have a simple method that updates the Page's title element (using the new ASP.NET 2.0 Page.Title property), as well as a
 header at the top of the page:
void UpdateTitles(string title) {
ProductHeader.Text = title;
Page.Title = "Products: " + title;
And that is all the code there is to the sample….
One thing to play with on the ObjectDataSource is to adjust the "NumRows" parameter value.
For example, if you changed this to "4" instead of "10" (which is what the sample ships with), you'd get 4 rows of products per page:
No additional code changes are required to enable this – just change the value in one place and you are good to go (no DAL, code-behind or other changes needed).
You can also experiment with the number of columns rendered by the DataList – try changing the "RepeatColumns" property on it to 1 or 3 to see a different layout.
Because we only retrieve and return the rows needed for the current page of rendering from the database, and because we only use a single database
call to retrieve all of the data for the product-listing page, the execution of the page should be very, very fast and scalable (even when you have thousands
of results). As you can see above, the code to implement this is pretty small and clean.
Because we are using standard navigational HTTP GET requests everywhere in the sample, no client-script is needed or emitted on the page (do a view-source
I used FireFox for all the screen-shots above – but obviously it also works with IE.
Hope this helps,

On his return from the extraordinary West African visit of the Khilafat Centenary Year Huzur gave a discourse on this very special visit in the Friday Sermon today.
Huzur said everyone is aware that he has recently been on a visit to three West African countries. The main programmes of his visit, the Jalsa proceedings etc. would have been watched by many on MTA and they would have thus witnessed the profusion of Allah's grace – in accordance with His promise - on the Community of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace). Huzur said much of his visit is detailed in reports but as the majority of people do not read Al Fazl (Urdu newspaper, which is publishing the reports) and also because a lot of people have expressed the wish that Huzur would relate incidents of his visit he would recount those aspects which perhaps the camera does not capture and which are of the emotional nature.
Huzur said this was his first visit of the Khilafat Centenary and people had prepared for it with great excitement. The keenness and fervour of some was of astonishing level. Allah has granted the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) people with such love, sincerity and piety. People who give precedence to faith over worldly matters, whose nationality and race is different but who have such incredible love for the Khalifa of the time that it is overwhelming. Huzur said this was promised to the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) and was indeed destined to happen for Allah had promised the Messiah (on whom be peace) that He would give him honour and renown that would reach the ends of the earth and He would generate his love in hearts. Huzur said the world is witness to the fact that this promise was fulfilled with great glory during this African visit. There is nothing concealed, nothing exaggerated, the camera captured the images and the world saw that the people of Africa have great love for the Messiah and when they raise the slogan of 'Ghulam Ahmad ki Jai' (long live Ghulam Ahmad) in their specific manner the Divine promise of honour and renown is seen fulfilled with a unique glory. Huzur said certainly no human effort can inculcate so much love, nor can worldly greed bring about such delight on faces and such love in eyes. These people do not have any worldly wealth but they are laden with the wealth of Iman (belief) and no amount of worldly wealth can buy their love for the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace). The love that they have for the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him), the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) and subsequently for Khilafat is unique. It is our God Who has infused the love of Khilafat in Ahmadis because of the love they have for the Messiah (on whom be peace) and African Ahmadis are becoming a model of this.
Huzur explained that the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) said that those who are with the prophets of God are always weak people. High and mighty people have all sorts of other thoughts and it is beneath their 'dignity' to be where the weak and the poor gather. The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) said that he noticed that there were hundreds of very poor people in his Community but their boundless sincerity was astonishing. These people possessed firmness of faith, truth in belief and sincerity that if those who had wealth got to know of the satisfaction they had, they would be ready to give away all they had in exchange for it.
Huzur then related a few incidents of his recent visit. Huzur said everyone saw the welcome at Accra airport. It was night time and while people may have seen the general ambience of fervour [on MTA] the love exuding from the eyes of those people could only be seen by those present. The Jama'at headquarter is based in Accra but the Jalsa was held at a place about 30 kilometres away called 'Bagh e Ahmad'. It is a newly acquired location with area of in excess of 400 acres and is conveniently situated besides a highway. Allah has bestowed this site to the Ghana Jama'at who have worked hard, have cleared it and planned it well. It is an old disused poultry farm with sheds etc. which have been cleaned, new flooring put in and are now used as living quarters. Huzur said if there was lack of space at Jalsa no one complained. A huge number of people had come there, well-off business people, teachers and other professionals; however, if there was no space, they quietly slept outdoors. Their reasoning was that they had come to listen to the Jalsa in the presence of the Khalifa of the time and it was only a temporary inconvenience of two days. Huzur said the site was new and the number of people tremendous but there was not a single complaint to be heard! There were people in excess of a hundred thousand present. It was also their first experience to operate Langar Khana (The Promised Messiah's kitchen) on the level that they did. One day it transpired that some people from Burkina Faso were not fed. Three hundred of them [from Burkina Faso] had cycled the distance of 1,600 kilometres to reach the Jalsa site. When an apology was extended to their missionary about the food slip-up he said they had attained the objective for which they had come to the Jalsa and that the [spiritual] sustenance they received there was not available anywhere else. Huzur said the Burkina Faso Jama'at is advancing in their sincerity. There is so much poverty among them that some of them arrived in just one outfit but had saved pennies to come to the Khilafat Jalsa; who else but Allah can generate such love and devotion?
Huzur said the Khuddam [from Burkina Faso] who had arrived on bicycles had travelled for seven consecutive days, camping in between. The group had a few Ansars of 50-60 age group and two 13 year olds. Prior to travelling when the Ameer sahib of Burkina Faso told these boys that they were too young to make the trip, they were most disheartened and insisted to join and were delighted at being allowed. The Sadr Khuddam Burkina Faso, Abdur Rahman had said that they wished to emulate the tremendous sense of sacrifice of the early Muslims at the occasion of the Khilafat Centenary and planned the bicycle ride. Initially 1,400 people gave their name to join but due to some administrative matter only 300 were chosen. Huzur said it is not as if they had new, strong bicycles, rather these were old, rickety and dilapidated bikes but their sincerity for Khilafat which the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) had prophesised was such that they made the journey. Huzur said a TV correspondent asked one of the bikers from Burkina Faso how had he travelled on such a dilapidated bicycle. The reply was that no doubt the bicycle was dilapidated but the faith was strong. Huzur said this was broadcast on national television with striking headlines. Huzur said these are not born-Ahmadis, are not the family of any of the companions of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace). They live thousands of miles away in places without electricity, without running water and where there is intense poverty. Yet having joined the Community of the true and ardent devotee of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) they are resolute in their resolve. Huzur prayed that may Allah increase them in their sincerity.
A person called Isa Sayama who took his bai'at in 2005 said 'I realise today how fortunate I am.' [Upon meeting Huzur]. Huzur said some expressed their love for Khilafat with tears. Indeed those unfortunate people who raise objections against the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) should see these people and the revolution that God's Messiah has generated in them and the incredible love for the Khalifatul Masih that they have.
Huzur said a group of people arrived from The Gambia by bus, travelling some 7000 kilometres. Of course as those who have been to Africa know the buses there are not that great and the roads are poor. However when these people arrived at the Jalsa Gah, rather than look for somewhere to rest, they looked for the place where Salat was to be offered as it was Salat time. Huzur said the detailed reports will be printed in Al Fazl and those who can should read them.
A group came from Ivory Coast travelling a long distance. Allah had enabled many local people to bear the travelling costs of many who could not afford and who had been distressed at not having the capacity to travel. Huzur said various ways and means were utilised to attend the Khilafat Centenary Jalsa. The Ivory Coast Jama'at had decided that a group of a hundred people would travel to the Jalsa. These are extremely deprived people. They decided to cultivate a field in order to meet the travel expenses. Allah blessed them and 103 people came in their group.
In another group from Ivory Coast there were 23 women who have borrowed money in order to travel to the Jalsa and intend to pay back their loan from the proceeds of the crop that they have cultivated. Young girls from a region had started working on crops when they knew of Huzur's visit to Ghana and thus managed to travel. Huzur said a lady from Ivory Coast came to the Jalsa. She was very ill. Her husband and her brother related that when she had left her village she told people that she was travelling to the Khilafat Jalsa despite her illness. She said she felt she would not return so she asked people to forgive her [any wrong]. Huzur said she was extremely ill and the journey was long, she had a mulaqat with Huzur and later passed away. Huzur said he led her funeral prayer.
Huzur said he has but related a minuscule part of the whole experience. He said the people of Ghana must be wondering that they have not been mentioned whereas it was their Jalsa! Huzur said the ardent love of the Ghanaian Jama'at for the Messiah of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be on him) emerges as a model. He said he remembers when Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih III (may Allah have mercy on him) visited Ghana in 1980 Huzur was stationed there. Hadhrat Khalifatul Maish III (may Allah have mercy on him) had come to Ghana from Nigeria. Masood Dehlvi sahib was accompanying him and had earlier reported/written that the reception at Nigeria was the ultimate. However, when he witnessed the reception at Ghana he said that all that could be written about it was that it was 'like a surging ocean'. Huzur said indeed this is exactly how the Jama'at of Ghana is; the old and the new Ahmadis alike.
Huzur said it was their first Jalsa on such a huge scale. Indeed the world saw the grand spectacle on Friday. A friend from Ivory Coast said he had never seen such a gathering after Hajj. Huzur said during the Friday sermon as he looked on he wondered if the MTA team were showing it properly. However, Alhamdolillah, Huzur said the MTA young men who had travelled from UK displayed great expertise in this, may Allah reward them.
Huzur said one of the qualities he noticed of people at Jalsa at Ghana was the patience they exhibited listening to the proceedings despite the heat. Not just this Huzur said, at the time of Tahajjud and Fajr, the ground would be just as full. He said when he went for Fajr on Saturday morning he was astonished to find the crowd looked even bigger than at Friday Prayers. Huzur said his residence was at a distance of 6 kilo meters and the car would crawl on the way there due to people thronging around; women carrying little children, radiating love, urging the children to say salaam to Huzur. Such are the men and women of Ghana, Huzur said, who also safeguard their Salat and these indeed are the people to whom Allah has promised eternal Khilafat. Huzur said in Ghana the Langar was operated by women. He said when he went to have a look at the Langar the slogans raised were so passionately loud and fervent that Huzur deemed it best not to inspect the whole Langar lest in their passion and zeal the ladies overlooked that they had stoves and hot food around them. Huzur said the Khuddam too rendered their duty extremely well. Huzur said he watched them resolute on duty in pouring rain.
Huzur said in Benin the Ameer and Missionary-in-charge insisted that Huzur inaugurated the large mosque of Port Novo that he had laid the foundation stone of during his last visit. Their Jalsa also scheduled. Huzur said it is a new Jama'at in Benin and most of them are new converts. When Huzur crossed the border into Benin a governmental minister came to receive Huzur. Huzur said he was there mostly to meet with the Ahmadis who raised fervent, passionate slogans. Huzur said the next day was the last day of the Jalsa and was attended by 22,000 people who had travelled great distances. May Allah increase their love and sincerity. Huzur said such visits also provide opportunities for Tabligh. Huzur said an MNA took bai'at although Huzur told him to think it over but he said he was prepared, so the bai'at went ahead. A friend of an Ahmadi came to visit him and remarked that the visit of 'your Khalifa' is a visit of extraordinary blessings. Huzur said a special lady envoy of the President of the country came to see Huzur at the mission house. After Huzur had left she re-visited and asked if Huzur had been pleased with the visit. She also remarked that she had never attended such a Jummah in her life (earlier she had attended the Friday Prayers led by Huzur) and said that she had never heard anyone explain the Holy Qur'an (as Huzur had). Huzur said she is very close to accepting Ahmadiyyat and it is hoped that she will take her bai'at.
In Nigeria, although it was not planned Huzur was requested to unveil a plaque for a mosque near the border. Huzur agreed. Huzur said Nigeria is no less [in their zeal and sincerity]. Huzur said when they reached the site Huzur was relieved he had decided to come because the entire Jama'at stood waiting, certain that Huzur would come. They all wanted to have a handshake with Huzur which was not possible. Women wished to see Huzur from nearby. In the crowd, Huzur said, a member of his entourage said to a woman to step aside. Huzur recalled most amusingly that the woman was livid at this and retorted who did he think he was to come in between her and the Khalifa of the time! Huzur said it was entirely possible that she could have picked up the person and thrown him aside. Huzur said Nigerian women are very strong.
Once inside the mosque Huzur said when he asked for silence they all sat down. When Huzur told them that he did not have a plan to stop there but had come for them they raised such a passionate slogan that it felt the roof of the mosque would blow up. Huzur said the Jalsa site was at a distance of 1,200 kilo metres. En route Huzur said he witnessed the same sincerity, the same passion; women running alongside Huzur's car with little children in their arms, drawing the children's attention to Huzur, connecting them to Khilafat.
At the Jalsa people had also come from neighbouring Chad and Niger. Huzur said he met many governmental officials here and raised further awareness about the Jama'at. Relating about a local king Huzur said he has opened a girls school in the memory of his mother and requested Huzur to lay the foundation stone. Other traditional kings and government officials were present at the ceremony. The king openly expressed his affiliation with the Jama'at and with Huzur. Huzur prayed that may Allah open up his heart further and may he come into the fold of the Community of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) and may Allah gather all pious souls on the hand of the Messiah of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him).
Huzur said in 1940 following a situation that had developed in Nigeria Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih II (may Allah be pleased with him) had told a group within the Nigerian Jama'at to either be obedient or be excluded. During this visit of Huzur the media asked Huzur about this group and Huzur said they had made no difference to the Jama'at at all. Huzur said those people now seem to realise their mistake. An Imam and an elder from them came to see Huzur and Huzur told them that the situation is quite clear and evident now and that they should stop being obstinate and come and join. Huzur said apparently they seemed to pay heed. Let us hope Allah opens their hearts.
Huzur said he would say to the missionaries there, in fact the missionaries around the world to raise the standard in terms of their connection with Allah and to inculcate this in their families as well; to display more sincerity, especially those who are in Africa. The earlier missionaries had made tremendous sacrifices and had set great models; everyone should try and attain the high standards they set. Huzur said the world is watching all this on MTA and we need to turn to Allah more than before. A lot of prayers are needed although it is Allah's promise that He will make us triumphant but we should also increase in our sincerity and turn to Him more than before. May Allah so enable everyone and may He show us greater destinations of progress and advancement.
The Jumu'ah (Friday) prayer is one form of congregational worship in Islam. It takes place every Friday. Regular attendance at the Jumu'ah prayer is enjoined on the believer. According to a Saying of Muhammad(sa) this congregational prayer is twenty-five times more blessed than worship performed alone. (Bukhari)
"O ye who believe! When the call is made for Prayer on Friday, hasten to the remembrance of Allah, and leave off all business. That is best for you, if you only knew." more
"… (He who) offers the Prayers and listens quitely when the Imam stands up for sermon, will have his sins forgiven between that Friday and the next" (Bukhari)

Santa Fe Opera review: Pitying "Oscar," floating with "La Donna," and always appreciating an art form's highs and lows
If every opera was a success, success would be boring. We need the occasional bum buster, the one-off snoozer, the rare WTF, to remind us just how hard it is to coordinate singers, composers, stagehands, donors, ticket buyers, traffic and the weather into a great evening of the world's highest art form.
That's a romantic way of looking at a few nights at the Santa Fe Opera this week, which had at least one soaring success in "La Donna del Lago," as fine an opera as you might hear in your lifetime, and one duff disappointment in "Oscar," which was not so bad really, though as deflating as a long, slow burp because expectations for it were so high.
Those two productions formed a realistic context for the third, "The Grand Duchess of Gerolstein," which was terrific in every way, for a title that has the cred of being composed by Jacques Offenbach, but isn't so much in demand by opera goers.
These highs and lows are what make a trip to Santa Fe so grounding. Much like a yoga retreat, an opera fan can find his center there, but also push his limits, stretch his taste level under the assured guidance that such a fine company guarantees. Yes, you pay for it, but the experience is always rich.

An Indonesian official is facing calls for his resignation after it emerged he divorced a teenager by text message following four days of marriage.
Aceng Fikri, the elected head of Garut in West Java province, has publicly apologised amid the outcry. Hundreds protested against him on Tuesday.
Mr Fikri, 40, is married with three children and took the 17-year-old as his second wife in a Muslim ceremony.
He divorced her after reportedly discovering she was not a virgin.
"I would like to apologise to the public if women feel harassed, even though I didn't mean to harass anyone," Mr Fikri said.
He added that he was sorry "even though what I did was appropriately based on Shariah [law]".
Although not recognised in Indonesian law, unrecorded marriages, including religious ones, are common in the country. The marriage law says that women who are 16 can marry.
Fani Octora was 17 years old and still in high school when she married Mr Fikri in a Muslim ceremony in July that was not officially registered, correspondents say.
She reported him to local police on Monday, accusing him of domestic violence.
Mr Fikri told local media that Ms Octora was not a virgin and "doesn't meet the promised specifications so I sent her back".
He also says she signed an agreement to keep her silence on the matter and he paid her 40 million rupiah ($4,200, £2,600).
Protesters gathered at the Garut municipal building on Tuesday to demand Mr Fikri's removal from office, saying his actions were disrespectful of women.
Correspondents say there is no indication that the police will charge him.
Under local laws, the elected leader of a region can be sacked only under a complicated process that can take up to two months.
Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has asked the Ministry of Home Affairs to look into the case.

Oh baby! Coors staffer celebrates big year
Greg Michalek will always consider 2012 a watershed year.
He moved to Colorado to work on Joe Coors' congressional campaign, accepted a job with the state Senate GOP caucus to handle press for the 2013 session after Coors lost and then celebrated the birth of his first child on Saturday.
Michelak and his wife, Meredith, welcomed Gregory Michalek III, who weighed a whopping 10 pounds 7 ounces.
Joe and Gail Coors threw a surprise baby shower for their deputy campaign manager in August. The Michaleks didn't know the sex of their baby until he arrived.
Between the session, which opens Jan. 9 and ends 120 days later, and a new baby, Michalek can expect to have a sleep deprived 2013.

Kit lets you make, customize your own Sedia chair
Fueled by a robust DIY movement, designers and manufacturers are touting the satisfaction of personalizing a store-bought object or building something by hand.
An impressive exhibition of objects curated by Fuseproject founder Yves Behar at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Center for the Arts explains how the trend gathered steam. Savvy consumers began to personalize or "hack" manufactured goods such as furniture from Ikea to suit their own environments. Some designers, like Berlin's Jurgen Mayer and the Dutch design collective Droog, were inspired by the collages of DIY Dumpster divers to incorporate castoff furniture in their own designs.
One hundred such pieces created in 100 days by just one London designer, Martino Gamper, are showstoppers at the YBCA show, called "TechnoCRAFT, Hackers, Modders, Fabbers, Tweakers, and Design in the Age of Individuality."
Puma, the German sporting goods company, and Artek, the venerable furniture firm started by Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, are among those that saw the potential of selling such DIY satisfaction with modular, variable components.
For example, Puma's Mongolian Shoe BBQ allows consumers to customize sneakers with the click of a mouse: Browse their website, pick from a variety of component shoe parts in myriad colors and textures, and Puma will sew them together.
Artek, long known for virtually indestructible mass-produced bentwood furniture designed by Aalto, is promoting L-shaped wood-composite modular chair/stool/table components designed by Japanese architect Shigeru Ban. It has also licensed a 1974 DIY design concept called Autoprogettazione (self-design) by prescient Italian industrial designer Enzo Mari.
Mari devised simple designs (including one for a chair) that were to be sold as kits of wooden parts and a box of nails. He eventually distributed design templates without parts because, back then, no manufacturer would make the components. They didn't understand his concept.
Now Mari's Autoprogettazione idea has Artek's blessing, and the company's U.S. director, Simone Vingerhoets, explains how it ties in with Aalto's own philosophy:
"We are going back to our own roots. Alvar Aalto designed pieces which he then built himself," she says.
Natural Finnish pine is used for Mari's pre-cut Sedia 1 chair parts, and "the customer has the opportunity to customize the chair with paint or upholstery," Vingerhoets says.
Making one's own chair is not easy, even when it is so carefully laid out, because unlike most prefabricated furniture, Mari's parts have no drilled screw holes to align for assembly. Still, when the Sedia 1 chair is complete, you have "personal satisfaction and a different relationship to it," Vingerhoets says. "That is part of the product."
At a glance
Expert opinion: When you make Enzo Mari's Sedia 1 chair, you can slide the back up or down to suit your body before nailing. While the choices of paint or upholstery are endless, you "do have to follow the instructions for assembly. You can't do it blindly because the sequence is important," Vingerhoets cautions.
Pros: The simplicity of the design makes it timeless, and it leaves "room for endless creativity," Vingerhoets says.
Cons: When you nail a piece of furniture together, mistakes are nearly impossible to undo without damaging the soft wood.
Price: Enzo Mari's Autoprogettazione Sedia 1 chair: about $310

2. "Out of the Blue." A documentary about the Boise State team that wound up upsetting Oklahoma. Quite good.
3. Three plays that shocked the world. Always worth a repeat view.
4. Brian Cook wants to pull his eyes out. ESPN's Lester Munson gets all hysterical and apocalyptic about the Supreme Court's upcoming decision in the American Needle case. The question involves whether the NFL -- composed of 32 different franchises under one umbrella -- should be treated as a "single-entity" for purposes of some of the anti-trust laws. If the NFL the Court deems the NFL a "single-entity" rather than a joint venture (as the lower courts did), it will be immune from some of this anti-trust liability. Munson thinks the world is ending; Cook takes a slightly more reasoned and calm approach, noting that the Supreme Court's ultimate decision is far from knowable (likely at this point even by the Justices). I'm with Brian, and for more insight check out SCOTUSBlog's explanation of the legal issues involved.
5. "A Beautiful Mind." Profile piece by Rob Moseley about Oregon's Chip Kelly. A good, thoughtful piece. Kind of buys into the "coach as genius" meme -- football is pretty simple, and players can always make you look smart -- but a good read.
6. Dutch Meyer on the spread:
In an interview Sammy Baugh gave to the Washington Post, years after he'd gone on to a Hall of Fame NFL career with the Redskins, one can even see a little of Dutch Meyer's influence on today's West Coast Offense:
"Dutch Meyer taught us. All the coaches I had in the pros, I didn't learn a damn thing from any of `em compared with what Dutch Meyer taught me. He taught the short pass. The first day we go into a room and he has three S's up on a blackboard; nobody knew what that meant. Then he gives us a little talk and he says, `This is our passing game.' He goes up to the blackboard and he writes three words that complete the S's: `Short, Sure and Safe.' That was his philosophy — the short pass. "Everybody loved to throw the long pass. But the point Dutch Meyer made was, `Look at what the short pass can do for you.' You could throw it for seven yards on first down, then run a play or two for a first down, do it all over again and control the ball. That way you could beat a better team."
Courtesy of Richard, one of the blog readers, and I believe the write-up is by the inimical coach Hugh Wyatt.
7. Dan Shanoff on the inevitability of ESPN's taking over local sports coverage. Also check out the front-page NY Times article he addresses.
8. Why are we so fat? Elizabeth Kolbert weighs in (zing!) in the New Yorker, and Jonah Lehrer tells us that our brains are biologically wired to prefer more calories over fewer, even when the taste is the same. (P.S. That's not a good thing.)

The beautiful, iconic Brown Palace Hotel of Denver, a destination for international celebrities, is once again up for sale (a subsequent sale agreement was announced March 5, 2014). But the offer is a rare occurrence, as the hotel has only had four owners since Henry C. Brown opened the structure at 321 17th Street in 1892. It was designed by architect Frank E. Edbrooke, who also designed the Central Presbyterian Church, the downtown department store building which used to house The Denver and the dome of the state Capitol.
Long a destination for glamorous evenings out, the Brown Palace Hotel has hosted debutantes, rock stars, presidents, famous actors and the great and the good on many festive occasions. Each year, the National Western Stock Show's Grand Champion Steer is shown in the lobby.
The nine-story, triangular sandstone hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 1959, a 22-story addition was built across the street (Tremont Place) from the main hotel. The Brown Palace was queen of the city until the 1970s, when population growth and new business brought the development of more modern hotels in the downtown area.
Below is a program from a New Year's Eve event in 1937. The Casanova Room was burned in a fire in 1935, but restored.
If a room key such as this one, for Room 819, was ever forgotten and taken away, it could be dropped into any post box for return to the Brown Palace Hotel. Cost was apparently 3 cents at the time this large key was in use.
In 1909, the late Winfield Scott Stratton made good his vow to "own and run this hotel yet," when his estate took over the lease from Maxey Tabor after it expired on October 31. For years, Stratton held a $600,000 mortgage on 'The Brown,' but had acted as lease holder. After his death, the trustees decided to operate the hotel under their own management.
More from Aldo Svaldi on the offer, announced Monday, September 23, 2013:

First off, I'm on my 2nd set for the Jeep and I'm running 275/40r20's on the front and 315/35r20's on the rear. The tires are an enormous step up from the stock GY run flats, and better than a lot of other performance tires Ive used in the past. I liked them so much, especially for the price, that I bought a set for my Trailblazer SS.
Great dry and wet traction. There my be tires with better dry grip, but be prepared to fork over double the price. Highly recommended for a sporty truck/SUV.

All orders are verified for fitment guarantee
Verified by tire & wheel expert
We honor the fitment.
1010TIRES.COM goes through many steps to ensure that all orders we ship will fit your described vehicle.
To the best of our knowledge, the 1010TIRES.COM vehicle, wheel, tire and tire and wheel package selectors are accurate. Due to the possibility of typographical errors, modified vehicles, wear of vehicle, age of vehicle, or other factors, our proprietary selectors may not always be 100% accurate. Our vehicle database is sourced and verified by third party and to the best of our knowledge is accurate and up to date.
Please be aware that if you are installing aftermarket wheels, and/or changing tire size you are customizing your vehicle; therefore, the products you order from 1010TIRES.COM may not fit exactly the same as the factory settings.
If the order is approved for our 100% Fitment Guarantee and the product doesn't fit we will offer you a replacement or a full refund, including shipping charges (*some conditions apply).
You must provide your vehicle information. The selected vehicle information must be accurate and complete. It is the customers' responsibility to provide accurate and complete vehicle information.
The vehicle must be unmodified and has all original factory settings. Please note, older vehicles may no longer have factory parameters and therefore, may not qualify for our 100% Fitment Guarantee.
You are purchasing a full set of tires, wheels or tires and wheels package. Less than a set (3 or less) does not qualify for our 100% Fitment Guarantee
Rims: Rims will bolt on and will not interfere on OEM brakes, suspension, or body components. Rims that require hub centric rings or different wheel nuts/bolts are still considered a correct fitment.
Tires: Will fall within the approved overall tire diameter, load rating, and speed rating (winter tires are approved to have a lower speed rating).
Tire and Wheel Packages: The package will bolt on and will not interfere on OEM brakes, suspension, or body components. Rims that require hub centric rings or different wheel nuts/bolts are still considered a correct fitment
When you place an order, you must select your vehicle information from the drop-down menus presented to you in the search by car areas. Please note, the description of the vehicle may differ from your markings on the car. Always refer to your user manual for a full description of your vehicle. The failure to choose the correct vehicle may affect the selection of the product that fits your vehicle and your claim for fitment guarantee may be rejected. If you feel that your exact vehicle is not listed please use "Notes and Additional Instructions" box to add your vehicle information at the checkout. A 1010TIRES.COM expert will use that information provided for verification.
Driver's Side Door Sticker Example
When upsizing or downsizing tires/wheels always refer to your original equipment tire size. Correct tire and wheel information can usually be found on the inside of the driver's side door on a sticker. It is the responsibility of the customer to verify that this information is correct prior to placing the order in order to qualify for Fitment Guarantee.
If you choose not to provide your vehicle information, or chose to skip Fitment Check, when placing an order our Fitment Guarantee is not applicable.
Once we receive your order our first priority is to check fitment. This is done by our fitment team that employs various methods and manufactures databases to check fitment. We may come to the conclusion that the products you have ordered will not fit your described vehicle. In this case, you will be notified and will be provided with alternative options. If you still feel confident about your original purchase and want to proceed with the order as is, we will ship it to you with a disclaimer to that effect and such order is not covered by our Fitment Guarantee Policy. If you need to return the order we will issue an in-store credit only and it's subject to our Return/refund policy.
Since we don't have your vehicle present to physically qualify it for fitment we rely on our collective experience and expertise, and consult numerous fitment sources to make approve fitment. Due to mechanical wear and tear of a vehicle, tires and/or wheels may not fit as intended. It is impossible to take these factors into account when verifying fitment. Therefore, on rare occasions when a customer claims the product does not fit we reserve the right to refuse such a claim based on our previous experience with the same vehicle and/ or manufacturers fitment data available to the public. In such cases we will request pictures showing the issues with fitment and will assess the claim on a case by case basis. If the claim for a fitment guarantee is denied our Return/refund policy will apply.
The vehicle description chosen or described by the customer is not complete, inaccurate or wrong.
The vehicle is not listed when order is placed.
The vehicle is listed on the manufacturers website as an approved fitment but the customer or the installer claims the product does not fit.
The manufacturer representative has qualified the product as an approved fit for your described vehicle but the customer or the installer claims that the product doesn't fit.
The order was not approved for 100% Fitment Guarantee and the order was shipped with the disclaimer to that effect
The order was approved as a fitment based on the previously filled orders for exact same vehicle and product shipped (we keep such data) but the product didn't fit due to the mechanical wear and tear.
*Please note, you are responsible for a safe keeping and handling of the order that is under our Fitment Guarantee policy. If the order is returned and we determine that the product was damaged, this voids the Fitment Guarantee policy. The refund will then be issued as per our return/refund policy.

I am sharing this post from a facebook post. If you think you can help, let me know and I will forward your response to the original poster! Thanks!
Pit Bull people - I need help. There are two male Pits currently in Memphis.... One just thrown from a car today (Black Pit ) who is very well socialized, and good with people. He is on the way to the vet to be checked right now with another $$ sponsor. The 2nd baby was possibly used as bait or in a bad fight and will be undergoing surgery this week to amputate a rear leg. He is a little more frightened but VERY VERY sweet (Tan Pit - Named Ruger)... I am not a Pit Bull rescue, but have sponsored the surgery to help give this boy a chance. Can anyone help me network rescues in the Mephis or TN area that may be able to take these two and help find them suitable homes??????????? I have other pics if needed. There are folks willing to transport to the ATL area if a foster/rescue will step up.... Anyone?
2 pits in Memphis
Why buy from a breeder when there are plenty of homeless pups in shelters???

K Hair Stylist Near Me in Midrand?
Hair extensions might seem like a new invention but in reality hair additions have been around as far back as the Egyptian times when both men and women work wigs. Since then hair pieces have been in and out of fashion ever since.
In 1800 fake hair was frowned upon and women left their hair to be natural until the Romantic era was in full swing when women wore elaborate Apollo knots. Come the mid Victorian era and hair pieces were used a lot more extensively. Then strangely in the early 20th century Edwardian women wore false hair additions to create the pompadour hairstyle which looked like a woman was wearing a teapot on her head. How that became fashionable I don't really know!
Around the 1920's less hair was the big thing so hair pieces took a dive around that time and it wasn't until the 1940s when long hair came back into fashion and women starting indulging again. Then in the 1960's big hair was back with a vengeance. Coils were the in thing or the updo as better known to us were seen of many women, this was created by very extravagant human hair pieces. Wigs made from real or fake hair were commonly worn around this time too and carried on into the early 70's. Come the 80's and big hair was in but only natural hair. Famous singers wore wigs but that was about it.
The clip-on hair extensions come in a variety of different colours and lengths are the best option for non permanent hair pieces. They are very easy to use and as long as you get the right hair colour and texture of hair, no one will know your hair is fake. In fact I have sat next to a work colleague for months not realising that her long hair was in fact clip on hair pieces. It was only whilst getting ready for our Christmas works do that she pulled her hair off! I was shocked to say the least as her natural hair was just shoulder length and I had no idea.
African American Healthy Hair Care: The Basics
We've come a long way with curly perms for African-Americans. Just imagine yourself getting out of bed, getting ready for work, and all you have to do is spritz your hair with mist, work the moisturizing lotion through your hair, run your comb through your hair, you look fabulous and you're ready to go! Due to the many hats women have to wear these days as mother, mentor, and unfortunately even father to our children, nowadays women are looking for hair that looks great without the fuss. Low maintenance is the key. Let's face it, with the added responsibilities we face as women, we just don't have the time to spend long hours in salons or devote a large amount of time in front of the mirror fixing our hair.
With the Wave Nouveau dry curl system, maintenance is effortless. The hair looks great, and it is definitely a major improvement from the days when everyone was wearing the greasy unattractive Jheri Curl. The Wave Nouveau is the first of its kind to take the "dry curl" to new heights. It looks more natural than other curl systems and looks more like our natural hair. Another major benefit is that it's not fake; it's not a weave, and most importantly, it's YOUR own hair. If taken care of properly, your hair will thrive and grown to great lengths.
Hopefully you will not have trouble finding a beautician who still performs the Wave Nouveau. We are seeing an upward trend of women going back to this dry curl system because it is so easy to take care of and maintain.
The day of curly perms for African-Americans is a sign of the future as more women seek out styles that require little attention.

This place had it all: mud bogs, drag strips, acres and acres of real Florida swamp complete with 'gators, Palmettos, hanging Spanish moss, and mud holes that could swallow a truck whole. This is where helping each other out becomes a visible bond as rigs use their winches to connect and get in and out of obstacles that other trail users would be leery of. After crossing a calm, serene field that felt like it was in another world, the UA group encountered their final mud mission, "The Big Pit," an optional challenge that saw many struggle but only a few succeed.

Advanced training in European art history requires direct exposure to the object of study, prolonged access to key information resources such as libraries and photographic archives, the development of professional relationships with colleagues abroad, and sustained immersion in European cultures. These related needs are often best satisfied by extended engagement with a European art research center. The Kress History of Art: Institutional Fellowships are intended to provide promising young art historians with the opportunity to experience just this kind of immersion.
The Foundation strongly urges its grantees and fellowship administrators
to help diversify the next generation of art historians, art
conservators, and art museum professionals by adopting an inclusive
approach to all Kress-sponsored partnerships and educational and
training opportunities.
Individuals must apply for a Kress Institutional Fellowship using the Foundation's online grantmaking portal. Pre-doctoral candidates who have been nominated by their departments should register for portal access at https://kressfoundation.fluxx.io. The portal will accept Institutional Fellowship applications between November 1 and November 30, 2019. See the How to Apply page for more information.
Six pre-doctoral Kress Institutional Fellowships in the History of European Art will be awarded each year. Each fellowship provides for a two-year research appointment hosted by one of the following European art history research centers:
The fellowship award is $30,000 per annum.
Restricted to pre-doctoral candidates in the history of art and related disciplines (such as archaeology, architecture, or classics). Nominees must be U.S. citizens or individuals matriculated at an American university. Dissertation research must focus on European art from antiquity to the early 19th century. Candidates must be nominated by their academic department.
Please note: Each university is limited to two (2) nominees per academic department. The nominees must be applying for different research centers.
Applications must be submitted through the grantmaking portal on or before November 30 at 5:00pm EST.
In addition to these six Institutional Fellowships, the Kress Foundation supports art history fellowships at other institutions. For a complete list, see Fellowship Partners.
Individuals receiving a History of Art Institutional Fellowship will need to secure a student research visa with their chosen country of study. Please note that the visa application process varies by country and may require several weeks to complete, particularly given summer schedules at many of the European art research centers affiliated with this program. The Kress Foundation advises Fellowship recipients to take appropriate steps towards obtaining the proper documentation immediately upon acceptance of the award, and to apply for the relevant visa as soon as possible to ensure a successful start to the first year of research.

The Wis-Kino Spring Kabaret '09 has come and gone, but never fear! If you missed this one, or simply cannot get enough of great, short movie-making, come back and check out our 3 day long Summer Kabaret this July 16 – 19. It'll be an excellent opportunity to work with more than one crew of people on more than one film, or to spend a little extra time on just one project. We're also hoping to have an official Kino Lab set up for those people who want a central place to meet and edit, etc. (and if you don't have your own editing gear).
The Spring Kabaret was a smashing success, though, with a packed house greeting both the kick-off and final screenings of the event! Thanks to everyone who came out just to watch, and especially to those brave souls who made a film in just 48 hours! The following is the list of those shorts screened on Sunday:
- "Her Place" – by Shahin Izadi
- "Channel 28 News Update" – by Craig Knitt and Tony Mayer
- "Bailout Boogie" – by John Feith
- "Reality Bale-Out" – by Kawika Kakugawa
- "Ethology" – by Josh Klessig
- "Catastrophe" – by Mitey Witey
- "Don't Worry" – by Saul Mandel
- "Essential Planning" – by Roger Bindl
- "Bail Out 2009" – by Ralph Yaniz
- "Monsieur Maintenance" – by Dustin Weis/SOK
- "Bale Out" – by Sam Lawson
- "Extremed" – by Rob Matsushita
Thanks, too, go to the Decider (specifically Scott Gordon) for giving the Kabaret a nice write-up.
