Synergy Contracts (Leeds) Limited began life as Managing Director's, Gurnam Singh Bharaj's first enterprise, G.S. Builders and Joiners, where he initially operated as a sole trader. With a degree in Architecture and time served apprenticeship in general building and joinery, Gurnam had the ideal compliment of skills to develop his vision of a fully fledged design and build practice from this platform, taking G.S. Builders to a multi-skilled team of more than 6 employees and establishing a healthy stream of work with a reputation for quality in design and workmanship.
The business gained vast experience within the domestic, lettings and small commercial sectors, providing a complete service encompassing all elements of the design and construction process; from the initial on-site brief, presentation and tender stages through to cost control, project management and finally construction. Projects include home extensions, student accommodation, office and retail.
In early 2007, with an already established expertise and work base, a decision was taken to shift focus and grow in the larger scale commercial market and local authority sector. During this period of development the business worked with the council and West Yorkshire business link gaining valuable skills and training and business practice as well as marketing, advertising and contractual matters.
Health & Safety was fundamental to the agenda and a commitment was made to dedicate time and funding in order to up-rate the business to the required level both in terms of H&S management competency and staff training. CHAS and Construction line were identified as partners of choice as well as being those best placed to enable the future goals of the company.
In October 2007, Synergy Contracts (Leeds) Limited were made aware of Training Education Services Limited (TES Limited) via Construction Skills.
After an initial meeting, we engaged the services of TES Limited and began their Business Building Blocks programme. The programme was tailored to our needs and priorities in the business and was delivered in house via an approach of 'learning through doing'. TES Limited Facilitated us through various business improvement areas: -
- Strategic Planning
- Business Planning
- Training and Development
- Communication
- Management Development
TES Limited also signposted us to other support, grants, funding and networking, including:
- Construction skills
- Federation of Master Builders (FMB)
- Investors in People (IIP UK)
- Considerate Constructors
- Train to Gain
TES Limited worked with Synergy Contracts to maximise and release the benefits available from above.
By working with TES Limited through the planned, tailor-made approach; Synergy contracts have achieved the following business benefits:
- Training for apprentices
- CSCS Certification for all employees
- Business Plan aided focus approach
- IIP Status
- CHAS accreditation
- On Construction Line
- Approved contractor status on numerous lists
Through the above Synergy Contracts have gained entry to the commercial arena and are on tender lists for our target working partners. We have successfully tendered and won work for Leeds City Council including Manston Primary School.
Continuing our relation ship with TES we have set up a new plan for the coming year including ongoing further staff training and implementation of ISO9001, which we hope to achieve by September 2009.

West Kennet Avenue, Avebury, Wiltshire
Avebury is a Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles, and is one of the best known prehistoric sites in Britain.
The West Kennet Avenue, an avenue of paired stones, leads from the southeastern entrance of the Avebury henge. Originally the avenue consisted of about 100 pairs of stones. But some of the stones are believed to have been torn down and broken into fragments for building material.
As well as marking the route to Avebury, the stones may have been used as grave markers for some members of the Avebury community. Human bones have been found on the site.

OK, let's not be naïve here. Of COURSE most well-dressed successful WASP professionals in East Memphis are NOT militant subversive White Supremacists. HOWEVER, do not doubt that the KKK counts among its members those with professional degrees. A few white people in professional positions, you will observe if you pay attention, in spite of their accomplishments and exposure to the world, are COMPLETELY adverse to diversity and you can tell that they very begrudgingly deal with people of color in their everyday work life and are just DYING to tell racist jokes.
Similarly, not every fiscal conservative genuine tea partier is a racist, but DO NOT doubt that the tea party movement has harbored within its ranks members of the KKK. In the current mainstream political landscape the KKK will NOT gravitate towards the Occupy Wall Street movement. They will take refuge within the Tea Party and, in their own mind and against their own interest, marginalize minorities by opposing entitlements and public education, and drive the organization to policies that are outside of its fiscal conservative mission, such as anti-immigration policies.
Not every White Republican is racist and bigoted, let alone sympathetic to the KKK, but do NOT doubt that there are active, albeit clandestine, KKK members and sympathizers in the Republican Party and that they are energized and radicalized by demographic change and by the fact that we have a black liberal President who happens to be a Democrat.
To sum it all up, they are among us, hiding behind the absence of their white sheets!

There are two excellent videos on the IMA's main page that will help introduce to writing in Wikipedia.
"When I was born in 1922, barely a hundred years after Indiana became the nineteenth state in the union, the Middle West already boasted a constellation of cities with symphony orchestras and museums and libraries, and institutions of higher learning, and schools of music and art, reminiscent of the Austro-Hungarian Empire before the First World War. One could almost say that Chicago was our Vienna, Indianapolis our Prague, Cincinnati our Budapest, and Cleveland our Bucharest."—To Be a Native Middle-Westerner by Kurt Vonnegut, an essay in "Home Again: Essays and Memoirs from Indiana".

What a project: Digitising Contemporary Art
Check out this EU project that was recently launched in cooperation with Europeana.
About the project:
DCA will create a digital body of high-quality reproductions of 26,921 artworks - paintings, photographs, sculptures, installations, videos and 1,857 contextual documents, which will become accessible and retrievable through Europeana; not only through the use of metadata and thumbnails, but also direct links to large-sized reproductions of each item. DCA will ensure that the rights to all available digital content will be cleared. The content provided, including masterpieces from key artists of most European countries, will fill a gap inEuropeana's content supply.
Images are always cool, but I'm super interested in what these "contextual documents" might be.
This is just one of many EU-funded projects around contemporary art and its care. Check out, POPART, another EU-funded project based on the conservation of plastics in museums. Their big conference is going on right now in Paris.

Categorizing conservation-restoration in Wikipedia
There's a growing number of articles in Wikipedia about conservation-restoration, many of which are not well researched or even close to being finished, but there's promise in them.
I spent some time this weekend cleaning up the way that they are categorized so that they can be better organized, and therefore we can understand what has been started in the English language. So, here's the newly-organized category for conservation-restoration. Note, also, the sub categories and how they work.
Lot's and lots to do in there … who knows, maybe you'll pitch in and give it a go, as it's the encyclopedia that anyone can edit.

Enterprise, Kinder Morgan executives discuss plans with investors
- Deon Daugherty
- Senior reporter- Houston Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Investors were treated to a chat on Thursday morning with leaders of two of the town's largest master limited partnerships — Enterprise Products Partners and Kinder Morgan Inc.
Michael Creel, president and CEO of Enterprise (NYSE: EPD), and Park Shaper, president of Kinder Morgan (NYSE: KMI), each spent time laying out the foundation of their respective success during a conference put together by Salient Capital Advisors LLC at the Houston Country Club.
Creel noted the recent steps that Enterprise is taking to alleviate the glut of crude in Cushing, Okla., particularly the announced intent to reverse the Seaway pipeline. He took a gentle shot at the Keystone XL pipeline, noting that while Seaway doesn't get quite the same amount of press as the Keystone proposal, "This is a real pipeline."
Creel said reversal of the Seaway pipeline will increase its current flow to 150,000 barrels per day by June 1; from there, it will increase its capacity up to 400,000 barrels per day by the first quarter of 2013. The crude will be delivered to refineries in the Port Arthur and Beaumont areas.
Shaper wasn't able to comment on Kinder Morgan's biggest recent news, the acquisition of El Paso Corp., as the deal is still in the regulatory approval stages. However, he also took a moment to note the "fiasco" of the Keystone XL, whose fate has been caught in political debate.
The Keystone XL pipeline, proposed initially three years ago, has been held up by the presidential permitting process because it would cross an international border. Various special interests have slowed the approval process to a crawl, and builder TransCanada recently proposed moving forward with the southern part of the route, which would alleviate the glut of crude in Cushing by delivering it to Gulf Coast refineries. That proposal has been met with mixed reviews.
Shaper discussed news released on Thursday about obtaining commercial support for expanding the Trans Mountain pipeline in Canada, which provides the only access to Canadian crude to the West Coast.

Dream team!
me me me me! that'd be awesum to teh max!
'the great unknown' by koxbox is one of my all time favourite albums..
Yes that would be great but I'd rather see him colaborate with Logic Bomb.. :D
'My god it's full of stars'
yes ! I love the old Logic Bomb stuff… Shadow Of The Beast, Marauder, Normalised, Datalinks, Drop By Anytime, and The Third Revelation ( from The Mystery Of The Thirteen Crystal Skulls )
there is nothing quite like it nowadays ( in the trance scene ), these wondreful warm fat sticky synths and groovy basslines :D love it ! I listened to these tracks quite a lot back then…
Sorry to go off topic, but I must say that I think a collaboration between Simon Posford and Underworld can be very interesting….
cheers !
Yes, that would definately be awsome. Unfortunately the original Koxbox formation isn't alive anymore, it's just Frankie now. The golden Days of Koxbox (Forever After, Dragon Tales (!!!), The Great Unknown) have passed.
But I'd still be very interested in a collaboration of Simon and Frankie
I am prety sure that on Koxbox's last album there is a small taste of simon, maybe it's cuase it was under Twisted and maybe not..
'Remember your name and adress. And telephone number too. Then if some day you lose your way, you'll know just what to do. Walk up to that kind policeman. The very first one you meet. And simply say I've lost my way, I cannot find my street.'

A Season on the Brink
Add A Season on the Brink to Queue
Add A Season on the Brink to top of Queue
One of the most unabashedly profane (albeit honest) TV movies ever produced for "basic" cable, A Season on the Brink is based on John Feinstein's book about the 1985-1986 Indiana Hoosiers' basketball season. Brian Dennehy heads the cast as the controversial, combative, chair-tossing Hoosiers coach Bobby Knight, whose motto is "The only two words you need to know to play basketball at Indiana: Yes, Sir!" Driving his players mercilessly, and making verbal mincemeat of fans and reporters alike, Knight isn't interested in winning any popularity contests -- he is only interested in winning games, which he does with intimidating frequency. Along the way, Knight's abrasive style has profound effects on two of his best players, Daryl Thomas (Michael James Johnson) and Steve Alford (James Lafferty) -- not to mention Bobby's assistant coaches and family members. Videotaped footage of actual games is incorporated into the dramatized re-enactments, with mixed but generally effective results. A Season on the Brink was simulcast over ESPN and ESPN2 on March 10, 2002, with the original TVMAL-rated version airing on the former service, and a "laundered" TV14LV-rated version running on the latter channel. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This TNT miniseries stars Alec Baldwin as Robert Jackson, the Supreme Court justice who served as the head prosecutor for the war crimes tribunal that took place in Nuremberg after the horrors of WWII and the Holocaust. The film follows Jackson from his preparations for the trial to the outcome of the trial itself, paying particular attention to the interplay between Jackson and the Nazi thugs he is trying to prosecute. Brian Cox co-stars a Hermann Goering, Hitler's right-hand man, while Christopher Plummer plays British prosecutor Sir David Maxwell-Fyfe, and Jill Hennessey portrays Elise Douglas, Jackson's invaluable secretary and sometime lover. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

The Member of the Wedding
This made-for-TV adaptation of Carson McCullers story features Anna Paquin as Frankie Addams, a 12-year-old tomboy growing up in the deep South in the mid-1940s. Frankie doesn't get along well with most children her age, and she prefers to spend her time with Berenice Brown (Alfre Woodard), the family's housekeeper, and her younger cousin John Henry. However, when Frankie learns that her older sister is getting married -- and that her family may be pulling up stakes and moving away -- she's forced to leave her immaturity behind and, with Berenice's help, begin making her first steps into adulthood. This version of The Member of the Wedding also stars Joanne Pankow and Pat Hingle. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Made for the TNT cable channel, this lengthy docudrama records the harrowing conditions at the Confederacy's most notorious prisoner-of-war camp. The drama unfolds through the eyes of a company of Union soldiers captured at the Battle of Cold Harbor, VA, in June 1864, and shipped to the camp in southern Georgia. A private, Josiah Day (Jarrod Emick), and his sergeant (Frederic Forrest) try to hold their company together in the face of squalid living conditions, inhumane punishments, and a gang of predatory fellow prisoners called the Raiders. After an unsuccessful escape attempt, the Massachusetts men help to put an end to the Raiders' activities. With the permission of the camp's commandant, Captain Wirz (Jan Triska), the Raiders are tried by their peers (with newly arrived prisoners as the impartial jury) and punishment is meted out. The men eagerly greet each new batch of arrivals to the overcrowded camp, hoping to hear some news of prisoner exchange, but as the months drag on and more of the men succumb to disease, that hope begins to flicker. ~ Tom Wiener, Rovi

In this docudrama based on true events, a mid-'80s Michigan housewife finds her life turned upside down when a vacation to Tehran with her Iranian husband turns into virtual imprisonment for her and her young daughter. Betty Mahmoody (Sally Field) is reluctant to visit the wartorn homeland of her doctor husband, Moody (Alfred Molina). But, depressed about the racism of the American medical establishment and pining for contact with his family, Moody convinces her to join him for a two-week jaunt. The Islamic fundamentalism and strange customs of Iran bewilder and frighten Betty and her daughter, Mahtob (Sheila Rosenthal). But nothing prepares her for Moody's announcement that the family will be remaining in Tehran indefinitely. Despite beatings and more pervasive psychological control from her husband and his relatives, Betty makes it to the Swiss embassy (there is no American ambassador at the time). There, she learns that as the wife of an Iranian, she is now automatically considered a citizen and that she has absolutely no parental rights over Mahtob in this country. Betty then endures several years as a virtual prisoner, escaping only with the help of Westernized Iranian friends. Based on the book by the real-life Mahmoody and William Hoffer, Not Without My Daughter was coincidentally released during the long build-up to 1991's Gulf War. ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

The made-for-TV Sakharov stars Jason Robards as famed Soviet nuclear physicist D. Andrei Sakharov. Lauded by his government for his scientific achievements, Sakharov nonetheless becomes an outspoken critic of Russia's human rights violations. He is reclassified as a "non-person" and exiled to the cloistered city of Gorky. He is also awarded the 1975 Nobel Peace Prize. Originally slated for a September 1984 premiere, Sakharov debuted over the HBO cable service on June 20. This coincided with Sakharov's internationally publicized hunger strike, designed to secure much-needed medical attention outside the Soviet Union for his second wife, Dr. Yelena Bonner (played in the film by Glenda Jackson). Sakharov was filmed in England and Austria with two separate crews. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Choices of the Heart
Choices of the Heart (aka In December the Roses Will Bloom Again) recounts the life and death of Irish lay missionary Jean Donovan. Together with three American nuns, the 27-year-old Donovan (here played by Melissa Gilbert) was murdered in El Salvador in 1980. Constructed in a complex flashback-flashforward style, the film shows how Donovan went from a selfish, materialistic girl to a champion of human rights. Martin Sheen plays the priest who is instrumental in Donovan's turnaround. The increasing demand for the US to withdraw its support of El Salvador's military-oriented government is a secondary but vital ingredient to the full dramatic impact of this made-for-TV movie. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

In the tradition of his earlier work in Grapes of Wrath and Twelve Angry Men, Henry Fonda played another social-protest role in the Hallmark Hall of Fame TV presentation Gideon's Trumpet. Clarence Earl Gideon (Fonda) is a poor, ill-tempered Florida handyman who is arrested for petty larceny in 1961. Unable to afford a lawyer, Gideon is sentenced to five years in prison. His treatment by the Florida judicial system, a clear violation of the Fourteenth Amendment, is brought to the attention of the Supreme Court. As a result, a landmark decision is reached, assuring free legal representation for anyone accused of a crime in the United States. Also appearing are Jose Ferrer as Gideon's attorney Abe Fortas, John Houseman (who also produced) as the Chief Justice, and Fay Wray as the owner of the lodging establishment where Gideon lived. Gideon's Trumpet premiered on April 30, 1980. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Fear on Trial
William Devane stars as John Henry Faulk, a popular radio and TV entertainer of the 1950s. In 1956, Faulk is blacklisted on the basis of an attack from the self-appointed anticommunist group AWARE. Fired by CBS, Faulk decides to sue AWARE for libel. His attorney Louis Nizer (George C. Scott) warns him that such a case will take several years to get to court, thus Faulk reluctantly takes a series of low-paying jobs to sustain himself during his "down period". In 1962, the case is finally brought before a judge, with several witnesses pointing out the idiotic iniquities of the Blacklist mentality (one child actor was prohibited from working because he had a name that sounded like that of an adult blacklistee). Appearing as themselves during the courtroom scenes are actress Kim Hunter, herself a blacklist victim, and producers David Susskind and Mark Goodson. Faulk wins his case, though his original award of $3.5 million in damages is later reduced to $550,000, and he is never able to completely return to his pre-blacklist prominence. Like several other filmic recreations of the "witch-hunt" era, Fear on Trial was first presented in the mid-1970s (October 2, 1975, to be exact), long after the most zealous of the 1950s anti-Red groups had fallen by the wayside. The film earned an Emmy award for screenwriter David Rintels. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This spy thriller from future Death Wish (1974) director Michael Winner stars Burt Lancaster as the enigmatic Cross, a CIA agent who has hired a government assassin, Jean Laurier (Alain Delon), to kill an Arab terrorist. Once they return home, Laurier is arrested by his superior, McLeod (John Colicos), who wants to know why Cross is still alive, as Laurier was ordered to kill him as well. Laurier doesn't think that Cross is guilty of the crime, but he relents and agrees to carry out the contract for a higher price. Cross, suspected of selling secrets to the Soviets, learns that his life is in danger and flees to Vienna, where he is aided by a former comrade-in-arms from WWII, the sympathetic KGB agent Sergei Zharkov (Paul Scofield). When Cross learns that his wife (Joanne Linville) has been murdered by McLeod, he returns to the U.S. and kills him, leading to a bloody final confrontation with a reluctant Laurier, who is shocked to discover that his lover (Gayle Hunnicutt) is in league with Cross. Scorpio (1973) was the writing debut of David W. Rintels, who went on to author several critically respected made-for-TV films. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

The F.B.I.: The Phone Call
The FBI launches a search for Curtis Stone (Roy Poole), a sleazy extortionist who preys upon the families of servicemen. There is someone else anxious to catch up with Stone: Sgt. Paul Devlin (John Ericson), whose wife committed suicide while he was in Vietnam. Holding Stone responsible for his wife's death, Devlin is determined to mete out his own brand of retribution--and Inspector Erskine (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) is equally determined to prevent the embittered Devlin from becoming a murderer. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The F.B.I.: The Satellite
Trouble comes in pairs for the family of a young kidnap victim. Not only has the family received a ransom note from the kidnappers, but they are also being shaken down for money from an extortionist who hopes to cash in on their travails. It is up to Erskine (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) to round up all the various and sundry villains and return the abductee safely. Featured as one of the kidnappers is a young Karen Black, several years removed from her stardom vis-à-vis such films as The Great Gatsby and Nashville. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The F.B.I.: The Price of Death
Season Two of The F.B.I gets under way as Inspector Erskine (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) receives an anonymous tip that teenager Paul Wallace (David Macklin) has been kidnapped and returned unharmed once the ransom was paid. But when Erskine interviews Wallace's father (John Larch), the man steadfastly denies that any kidnapping took place. It turns out that the abductors, Casey (Scott Marlowe) and Junior (Robert Blake), have threatened horrific consequences to the Wallace family if they talk to the authorities. Unfortunately, Mr. Wallace's silence may prove fatal for the kidnappers' latest victim(Dennis Joel Olivieri)--a diabetic in desperate need of insulin. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The F.B.I.: The Exiles
A group of South American exiles living in Miami assembles a plan to invade and liberate their homeland (the country is not identified, but viewers can draw their own conclusions). Unfortunately, there is a traitor in the would-be liberators' midst. Disguising himself a soldier of fortune, Erskine (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) infiltrates the group in hopes of exposing the mole--and convincing the freedom fighters not to embark upon a futile mission that will cost all of them their lives. This episode marks the last appearance of Lynn Loring as Erskine's daughter Barbara. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

How to make all future albums viewable to Registered users and let Everyone view current Albums?
Joined: 2007-04-15
Posts: 3 |
Posted: Sun, 2007-04-15 01:26 |
Go to www.mcalhany.net/gallery2 What I have it set to right now is that Registered users can view all albums. Every new album I create is by default treated the same as the main gallery (viewable by registered users only). I do have 1 album that is viewable by "Everyone" but b/c the main gallery is viewable to registered users only, non-registered people (i.e., everyone) can't see that album. I like having my main gallery set to "registered users" only, because I can create new sub-albums w/o having to worry about assigning permissions. However, I want the one album (Everyone) viewable w/o requiring someone to register. Is there a way to do this? Robert |

There's been much talk about the upcoming release of an Isabella Blow biopic, and it looks like filmmakers are really going ahead. Blow's former assistant Laura Goldstein Crowe has been appointed as a consultant, and her biography of her former boss, 'Isabella Blow: A Life In Fashion', will form the basis of the film's storyline, according to WWD.
This week, it was confirmed that the screenplay has been written by Nicola Brighton and Max Newson, so all that is left to be revealed is the cast. As we recently reported, John Galliano will allegedly have a cameo role and Phillip Treacy, who Andre Leon Talley said is having an instrumental role in the casting, is trying to secure Brad Pitt to play him. But the biggest question is: Who will play Blow?

JPMorgan Trade Blunder Sees First Management Casualty (Update 1)
Updated with report of further management shakeups.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) --JPMorgan Chase (JPM) has made further leadership changes at the bank's Chief Investment Office on Monday as it moves to clean up the house following its disclosure of a $2 billion trading fiasco.
Achilles Macris, the executive who led the London-based group that made the trades, will step down as chief investment officer of the European arm, according to an internal employee memo cited by the New York Times.
Earlier Monday, the bank accepted the resignation of Chief Investment Officer Ina Drew and named Matt Zames, earlier co-head of global fixed income in the investment bank and head of capital markets within the mortgage bank, as her replacement.
Drew had served at the bank for more than 30 years, sticking with the firm through a series of mergers and acquisitions. "Ina Drew has been a great partner over her many years with our firm. Despite our recent losses in the CIO, Ina's vast contributions to our company should not be overshadowed by these events," CEO Jamie Dimon said in a statement. Zames has an interesting resume,having worked at infamous hedge fund Long Term Capital Management which blew up in the late 90's. ""I've never forgotten the lessons of 1998," Zames told NYT in an interview Monday. "This is not all that similar to Long-Term, frankly." "I am proud of the firm's efforts over the past several days to address our mistakes and pleased to join the dedicated employees in our Chief Investment Office today," Zames said in the memo to employees, posted on the Times' website."Together, we will have a sharp, renewed focus on our hedging strategies, risk management and execution. JPMorgan Chase will come out of this experience as a stronger firm." Mike Cavanagh, CEO of JPMorgan's treasury & securities services group will help steer the firm's response to the recent losses at the Chief Investment Office, the bank said. -- Written by Shanthi Bharatwaj from New YorkSelect the service that is right for you!

Over the past two decades, an influx of immigrants and refugees has changed the face of American classrooms. In search of a better life for their children, immigrants and refugees have high aspirations and care greatly for their children's education. Yet this is not what you hear from American educators. Faculty and administrators raise concerns that these students don't pay attention in class, act out, lack basic social skills, and that their families don't support the school.
Caring Across Communities
is improving the disconnect. With support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, 15 sites across the United States are developing model mental health programs that engage schools, families, students, mental health agencies and other community organizations to build effective, easily-accessed services for children and youth.This paper outlines model programs that engage communities and community organizations to build effective and easily-accessible mental health services for children and youth. Some of the issues addressed in this paper include: The impact of the immigrant and refugee experience; partnering with immigrant families to support mental health; offering school-based mental health services; and the changing face of American classrooms.

You told t2 at IIFA that Maximum is the most special film of your career. Why?
I always wanted to play a character who had a lot to say but didn't have the words for it. My character (Pratap Pandit) is a man of few words so much like what I am. His actions speak louder than his words. The way Kabeer (Kaushik, the director) has written the character, and the film as a whole, is so special. I have played tough characters in many films before, but Pratap Pandit is one-of-a-kind strong and no-nonsense, but with his heart in the right place. From the way it was narrated to me to the way it has been executed, I can very proudly say that Maximum is not a regular film.
How did you prepare for the role of an encounter specialist?
I met a lot of cops in Bombay and in Punjab. I wanted to see the kind of lives they lead, both personally and professionally. I wanted to know more about their psyche how do they kill and then go back home to their families and lead normal lives? I read up a lot about Mumbai between 2003 and 2008 . The time when these encounter cops were brought in to cleanse our system and our streets.
Is Pratap Pandit based on any particular cop?
It's not based on one particular cop there are shades of Pradeep Sharma of Daya Nayak.
How differently has Kabeer Kaushik treated the cops vs criminals theme?
Though it's a film about encounter specialists, the action isn't so much in your face. There are undercurrents of it throughout the film, but
Maximum also has a lot of emotion and drama. It's a human story, above anything else. As Seher (starring Arshad Warsi) had shown, Kabeer has a very strong grasp on cop dramas. This is a genre he is very familiar with.
How was it sharing screen space with Naseeruddin Shah?
Naseer is one of the finest actors we have in the country. If you are a student of cinema, you just have to sit and watch him and you will learn so much. The fact that he give so much to his role motivates others to put in so much more. He always gives so much space to the other actors to better themselves.
Thirteen years into the business, how are you choosing your roles?
I take a long time to lock a film primarily because I consciously try and keep away from something I have already done in another film. I do a lot of films down south. I have two Telugu films lined up for release. Whenever I get time, I pick up a Bollywood film. That's the path I want to follow in future too be seen in less films, but meaningful ones that make a difference to my career.
Is it difficult straddling Bollywood and the south?
Dates were a problem in the initial years, but now with the success of Dabangg and a few of my other films, people in Bombay as well as in the south are ready to wait for me if they feel that I suit a particular role. People are now realising that here is an actor who wants to do good work and they know that I am committed to the projects I take up. Thankfully, I haven't lost out on any major roles.
And yet, you opted out of Dabangg 2, the first part of which was such a game-changer for you...
Chhedi Singh (Sonu's character in Dabangg, picture left) will always be an important part of my filmography. But somehow in the sequel, I wasn't happy with the way the role was shaping up. So I thought it would be best to opt out as people have certain expectations from the character and I don't want to disappoint them. I spoke to Arbaaz (Khan, the director of Dabangg 2) and both Salmanbhai and Arbaaz have assured me we will work together in future.
You have apparently been researching night and day to play Dawood Ibrahim in Sanjay Gupta's Shootout at Wadala
The Dawood that I play is someone who isn't really the dreaded underworld don we all know of. This is in the phase when Dawood is just becoming Dawood the early '70s. So I have been reading up a lot on the Dawood of that time where he lived, the people he grew up with, his initiation into the underworld. The film explores how a fun-loving and circumspect young man changed within a couple of years to become the terror that he now is. Shootout at Wadala is going to be a very important film for me.

"I love all beginnings, despite their anxiousness and their uncertainty, which belong to every commencement. If I have earned a pleasure or a reward, or if I wish that something had not happened; if I doubt the worth of an experience and remain in my past – then I choose to begin at this very second.
Begin what? I begin. I have already thus begun a thousand lives. "

No no no, it truly wont be Hell until its been Francofied.
"Welcome to L'Hotel de Hecate Monsiuer Hussein, your suite is this way. You will, how they say it in American ah oui, be in the smoking section. Enjoy your stay."
I'm sure his lovely sons were there to greet him, M*A! They are all, no doubt, in a very awful place as they should be.
Either it's not working for me, Word, or someone was offended and they pulled the game! Beth at Blue Star Chronicles has another Saddam animation here.
I like Michael Ramirez's cartoons. He consistantly nails it! And please, Benning, pass it along!
I wonder if he'll run into any of the ones he so mercilessly killed. Wouldn't wanna be a fly on the wall there though.
Well, if he killed them, they must not be that bad because they must have disagreed with him or hated him. Then again, if you believe in purgatory, they're probably having a field day there!
Well, Gawfer, I could do without that height gain, but he certainly deserved it!
Anna Puna, very funny rendition of the Fwench.
I don't believe in a Hell or Heaven, which simply makes my sense of justice all the harsher for it, for I believe that punishment and rewards must be taken care of in the temporal world, whenever possible. When it is not possible, when Saddam's crimes and his future possibility of causing more harm to humanity, outweighs any possible use to keeping him alive, then he shall be gotten rid of, of that I approve without condition or self-doubt.
I believe in the efficiency of executions. I am not above a little creative punishments and executions (historically they are many executions more painful and more psychologically terrifying than hanging or the firing squad), but it all depends. If you take the time to do to a man or woman what they deserve in life, then think about all the other enemies of humanity that aren't getting your attention. I cannot abide by such wasted time and work. Carrying out executions for thousands of dictators and terrorists, is hard enough as it is, perfecting the perfect creative punishment for each, I shall let fate do with such as she pleases.
This is one of the things I percieved about Iraq and the Iraqis, Anna. I knew that they had the barbarity, the chaos, and the ability to deal death that we here in the US lacked. Our military does not lack, our politicians and our population does, however, at least now they do. We need them, to balance our lawful ACLU degeneration and GitMo human rights stagnation. They need us to stabilize their chaotic politics, tribes, and violent criminals.
I have never forgotten the big picture, Anna. I know that President Bush is too compassionate to execute the terrorists we have in GitMo and international prisons (terrorist released from Germany that killed an American navy diver). But the Iraqis and Afghanistanis? They have no such self-limiting compassion, of which I find very useful to us.
Make use of it, I say. If America wants to wait around to get slapped until America unleashes the full power of absolute annihilation in this war, then I suppose our contingency plan is to rely upon our shock troops to do our dirty work for us.
Bush won't be around forever, but the Iraqis will. I have always known that America (Hollywood) was too decadent and weak to do what was necessary, while the American (Jacksonians) had the will but not the political clout to force policy changes on the President.
If anyone thought that war was simply grabbing the biggest hammer and crushing the enemy with invulnerable strength and numbers, will have been smashed in this war of ours right at the beginning. Because with the firepower of the US against the raggedy terrorists living hand to mouth on kidnapping ransoms, war has never been about who had the biggest hammer, but about who can use their hammer with the best skill.
The ability to adapt, the ability to kill your enemies using whatever means are available, and seeing the right path to take. Endure, in enduring grow strong.
DQ sparked a post in which I did some background research on MacArthur. Those interested in more Total War flavors might find it interesting here.
Limited wars always have problems. Total wars have theirs as well, but it isn't as… well quagmirish really. If you win, you win. If you lose, you lose. Simple, if not easy. But limited wars, such as MacArthur's problems with Truman in Korea and vice a versa? An apple of a different color indeed.
There are many issues with the war and we can only hope that at some point, someone in charge will have the nerve to take a stand and end the wishy-washy, weak-kneed position the "powers that be" are taking now.
In the end, Saddam got what he deserved, though I would have liked to see him suffer a little bit more as he was still way too cocky at the end…still thinking he was the one in control.
Press is eating up my post that I wrote just after I did the last one. So I waited awhile, now it is still happening. So I posted the second part here at my blog.
It elaborates on some of the points I skipped over, concerning Iraqi desert power.
When a person dies, Anna, his power ends. As I see it, this means I no longer have to worry about what they deserve or do not deserve, because they are no longer a factor or obstacle. And if they are not an obstacle, then I would rather devote my energies to existing problems, and existing threats.
Those who worry about making "martyrs" out of people, are more concerned with the power of an Idea and a Philosophy, such a Power can control people and raise them up in opposition against you. But there is a limit to all things, even for fascism and the worship of the occult or suicide pack, they need agents on this earth. Agents in which infernal power is channeled. Destroy their agents, and the corruption of hearts and souls cease, for a time, a generation at least.
Did you know that one reason why Al Sadr wasn't killed was because the military advisers told Bush and those in charge that it would cause the Shia to "uprise" because it would "martyr" Al Sadr?
Such advice from such advisers know nothing about the power of belief and the ability to channel raw human potential and power.
Such power exists, but all power may be manipulated, if not through the laws of physics, then through Quantum Mechanics.
The Art of War is not known to Bush's advisers and it is not known to Bush himself. Like all decent sorts, same with Gerald Ford, they simply care too much for humanity to do what is necessary. Their economic policies are competent and good for a peace time economy, but their ability to wage Total or even Limited wars, are of limited function. Ford proved that quite well when he didn't veto Congress's bills to cut funding, when he vetoed 50 other bills. Ford believed the government needed to cut back, regardless of the affect on military morale and military consequences for America and her allies. It was an economic decision, not a security one. Bush himself has done a good job protecting America, but only because he has unleashed the might of the United States military. Now the same military is being strangled by ROE so tight the soldiers are more scared of being court martialed than killed by terrorists. Bush's lack of Johnson micromanaging intentions, play a large part here.
Let us not forget the Democrats and their allies on the Left. If they hadn't been so busy attacking Bush for purely partisan gain and for personal power, I would have spent the years after 9/11 coming up with improvements to Bush's plans instead of trying to defend Bush. Instead of focusing the energy on how to best win Iraq and correct problems, the people of America wasted the first 3 years arguing over things the Democrats simply made up.
None of that saved Saddam, of course. But the duty of evil is to cause destruction and die. The duty of the good is to live and harness power to build and protect, regardless of how many terroists it kills in the process.

Enron, Part II: Republicans Cash In on Ken Lay (And Vice Versa) January 20, 2002 I don't usually publish letters that I receive, but this one typifies the Republican defense of the Enron scandal: I'm always impressed with the conservative battle cry of "Your guys are just as slimy as our guys!" After all, as long as Enron pays off both sides, it's okay, right? Well, let's take a peek at Enron's contributions to see just which politicians that fine upstanding company supports, shall we? All of this information was obtained from the Federal Election Commission website, so if you don't believe my numbers, you can play along at home. This column will focus on Ken Lay's personal campaign contributions during Election 2000. From 11/3/99 to 11/6/2000, Ken Lay contributed $300,700 to various campaigns and PACs around the country. Amount of money given to Republicans: $297,700. Amount given to Democrats: $3,000. Well, as long as both sides benefit. . . Lay's Democratic choices for contributions are as follows: Let's assume that Lay likes Republicans (an astounding claim judging from his bipartisan contributions, right?). Why would he contribute to the three aforementioned Democrats? Well, let's see. Two, Bentsen and Edwards, were Texas incumbents who won their races handily (with 60% and 55% of the vote, respectively). I'm sure that Lay knows both of these guys and decided that since their races were locked up, there was no reason to insult them by contributing to their Republican opponents. The third, Corzine, had a double-digit lead in his race in March, 2000, the date of the contribution. Lay probably also liked the fact that Corzine was a zillionaire investment broker, and was willing to spend what ever it took of his own fortune to win. The long and short of this data is as follows: Ken Lay is a Republican. Around 99% of his contributions went to Republicans in 2000. The remaining 1% went to three Democrats: Two were incumbent Texans with locked up races and the third was, as far as business went, a kindred spirit with a locked-up race - at least that's the way it appeared at the time. So the next time your straight-laced Republican friend (you know the one, the well-dressed guy whose trousers occasionally reveal the outline of a garter and stockings) proudly announces that Enron contributed to both sides, you can tell him with confidence that Ken Lay didn't. Lay expects a return on his investment, and judging by the laws Republicans passed that benefited Enron (The "stimulus" bill passed by the Republican house would have handed Enron $254 million), he's gotten a ridiculously generous return, indeed. Republican politicians should really be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Invest in one today and watch that investment grow! (In part III, I'll look at the Enron Corporation's campaign contributions. Anybody wanna guess how that will turn out?) (Special thanks to my tireless research assistant, email@example.com.)
