FBC – 242 – One of your 6 biggest fears… and how it's being used against you
Today, I want to tell you about a very powerful and effective method that's being used against you without your knowledge.
This is so powerful that it gets you to do things you wouldn't normally do if you knew which trigger is being used against you.
It's time to find out and all the answers are in today's episode.
There are six basic fears, like the worst fears ever. And there is one that marketing strategists are actually using. And this is the one that's actually driving a lot of your decisions. And it's based on the fear of criticism. We already talked about this before.
So you are way too worried about what other people will think and what you will look like if Bob has an iPhone 10 and you have an iPhone eight. All right. Because in essence, the iPhone eight does everything you need it to do. You don't need iPhone ten. The only reason why you need iPhone 10 is because everybody is going to go and buy the iPhone ten, just because it's out.
And then you might be in the situation where people are like, oh, man, look at him, he has the iPhone eight and stuff. And you don't want that. You don't want people to criticize you and you don't want to look like an old dinosaur or something. In this day and age, everybody has smartphones and stuff like that.
But here in Indonesia, you go to places and people still have these really old phones. You know no Internet, no nothing on it. You just text people you call and some people are making fun of them. They're like, oh, look at this phone and stuff. And I'm like, Dude, well, is this old person, because it's usually like grandads and stuff.
Do you think they need to go on Facebook and Instagram and whatever? No, they don't. So this phone works for whatever they need to do, right? They don't need more. So you don't actually need to compare yourself with other people. Right. Just you need to figure out what do you need the phone for?
And you just get the phone that gets the job done. You don't need to have the latest one and spend twelve hundred dollars for a phone.
So you have to understand this, that marketing that gets you to buy the latest stuff and gets you to buy the, you know, the trends and the latest fashion and stuff, is based on the fear of criticism, which is one of our six biggest fears. We're social creatures as people say. And you want to blend in. Right. And for some people, it's actually a big problem, you know.
Here are some of the things that you might actually get exposed to and what will happen to you. So the first thing, as I said, is you will become part of the masses. Because you're just doing what everybody does.
There is no logical reason, no good reason for you to go and buy the latest iPhone when you don't actually need it. The only thing you do is connect to WhatsApp and Facebook. You don't need that. You can you can have a phone that's six years old that will do it.
The mass is always wrong. The mass is the average. It's the average by definition. People who have exceptional results are not the masses. It's a minority. Right. So you don't want to be part of the masses. The masses is just doing average stuff. And you just look like everybody and you don't want to look like everybody.
One of your 6 biggest fears… and how it's being used against you
Just because everybody is getting their phone is popular. You want it. OK. So I'm not saying don't go and get the latest phone. Go and get the latest phone. If it actually makes sense for you, if this phone has something that's actually helping you, you know, achieve whatever goal it is that you're that you're doing.
And it just drives me insane to see people who follow trends and fashion and stuff. You're just doing what everybody else is doing. You're not thinking for yourself saying, well, you know what? This is what I like. I don't really care what other people doing. Let me do what I want to do. No, you just you just doing what everybody else is doing, you know?
This is how people go broke because they don't want to be criticized. They want people to idolize them. And they spend way beyond their limits. OK, so that's one thing you don't want. If you're smart, that's the thing. If you're really smart and if you know who you are, you just do the things you like and you'll see that, well, you're going to spend far less money.

Jakobshavn glacier grows for third straight year
National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
TwitterFacebookLinkedInYoutubeWeb
New NASA data shows that Jakobshavn Glacier — Greenland's fastest-moving and fastest-thinning glacier for most of the 2000s — grew from 2018 into 2019, marking three consecutive years of growth.
These images, produced using GLISTIN-A radar data as part of NASA's Oceans Melting Greenland (OMG) mission, show how much mass the glacier gained from 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19. Areas with the most growth — about 33 yards (30 meters) — are shown in dark blue. Red areas represent thinning. The glacier grew 22 to 33 yards (20 to 30 meters) each year between 2016 and 2019. OMG, led by Principal Investigator Josh Willis, is one of several NASA missions dedicated to furthering our understanding of global sea level rise.
Jakobshavn's growth did not come as a surprise to scientists. A recent study team from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, determined that water transported to the area around the glacier by a key ocean current has been colder than it was prior to 2016, when the growth began. The colder water is not melting the ice from the front and underneath the glacier as quickly as the warmer water did.
The temperature change of the current's water is part of a known climate pattern, one that is expected to flip again, and cause more of the melting and ice thinning for which Jakobshavn is known. Although the melting rate has slowed, the glacier continues to contribute to sea level rise, ultimately losing more ice to the ocean than it gains from snow accumulation overall.

The discussion leader or programming coordinators will have to carefully select clips based on the discussion themes, time limits of the presentation, and audience. The time code guides provide information to identify and locate specific content and to allocate sufficient time when presenting the four films.
Below are annotated guides of each film with time codes.
The guide presents each segment individually. Users will note that the right-hand panel contains a brief explanation of the content for a particular time frame. An attempt has been made to identify the specific individual or individuals who are featured in a time slot. For those programming coordinators who choose to focus on an individual, the panel explanations and the boldface print allow easy reference.
The guide suggests a division of the presentation into two segments. This approach allows a natural "break" for a presentation to an audience. The segments selected provide viewers with an opportunity to examine the historical background leading up to the convict and peonage labor systems as well as the abuses inherent in the chain-gang system. Specific civil rights issues and the effort to provide justice for abused and enslaved laborers are examined.
The guide provides suggestions for programming coordinators to examine the historical background, specific civil rights issues in question, and the trajectory of the appeal by the Lovings for justice through the legal system.
The guide suggests a division of the presentation into three segments. Part 1 provides background of public discrimination and follows the launch of the Freedom Rides through the violence in Anniston and Birmingham. Part 2 begins with graphic depictions of the lunch counter protests and examines the initial reluctance of the Kennedy administration and federal government to intervene to protect the Freedom Riders. Part 3 focuses on federal / state conflicts, SNCC criticism of Dr. King, and attempts to complete the Freedom Ride as well as an assessment of the project.


Light installation AnTUenna consists of ample 10,000 LED lights attached to the chimney at the 'groene loper' of the Eindhoven University of Technology campus. These LED lights generate red, green and blue light and are individually controlled in colour and intensity by a central controlling system. These light points are grouped around the chimney in rings of 60 LEDs each. It starts with a 15 centimetres' distance between the upper two rings to be increased up to a distance of several metres between the two lowest rings. Horizontally, the distance varies between 14 and 32 centimetres. And owing to this specific division, a conic, low resolution screen appears which depicts images, videos and animations to be seen at great distance. During GLOW, several moving image projects are shown representing scientific and technical processes. These images are supplied by several faculties of the University of Technology, exemplary for the many fascinating studies that take place on campus. After GLOW, AnTUenna will remain on site permanently.

From Chron.com - Houston Chronicle a woman has been has been charged with child endangering after another motorist reported she was both breast-feeding a youngster and talking on a phone while driving.
Police say the woman faces up to 180 days in jail and a $1,800 fine if convicted of the misdemeanour.
I won't make a joke about airbags.
Ipods are bad for your home-News Bizarre A Connecticut man was so engrossed with the tunes on his iPod that he didn't realize his house was on fire — until his alarm company called.
Pomfret Assistant Fire Chief Edward Bates says Andrew Riley told him he was listening to music Thursday afternoon when the blaze broke out on the upper floor of his 2½-story house.
Bates says Riley didn't smell smoke or hear the smoke alarm going off.
After receiving the call, Riley dashed upstairs and shut a door to the burning room.
Wonder what he was listening to?
From Ananova - Ultimate navel-gazing exercise yes the mystery is solved!
Georg Steinhauser, an Austrian "scientist" claims to have solved the riddle of belly button fluff. Dr Steinhauser made his discovery after studying 503 pieces of fluff from his own belly button in a three year study.
His observations showed that 'small pieces of fluff first form in the hair and then end up in the navel at the end of the day'.
Dr Steinhauser established that shaving one's belly will result in a fluff-free navel - but only until the hairs grow back.
Other suggestions for keeping the navel fluff-free include wearing old clothes, as they tend to shed less lint than newer garments.
A body piercing can also help, with belly button rings particularly effective at sweeping away fibres before they lodge.
Oh good, that's been bothering me for years!
Also from Ananova - School bus driver takes kids to cops A school bus driver took his unruly passengers to a police station in Australia after he was hit on the back of the head by a lollipop.
"They were refusing to put seatbelts on," Mr King explained. "They were told to sit down and behave but within a couple of kilometres they were running around the bus and they started pegging things.
"Something hit me in the back of the head, which I didn't know at the time what it was, so I pulled over and stopped."
Ipswich police district inspector Kevin Keillor described Mr King's decision to involve them as "fantastic".
I know what I would have done with the little buggers, make them walk.
Religion is bad for your bum-Ananova US police are hunting a man who stabbed his son in the bum for refusing to take his hat off in church.
The father, 58, and his 19-year-old son had been attending a church service in Baltimore, Maryland.
After the pair argued about the hat, the father went back to his car for his knife before stabbing his son in the left buttock.
Police have since issued a warrant for the arrest of the father who fled afterwards, reports the Baltimore Sun.
The son was taken to University of Maryland Medical Centre for treatment.
That's not very Christian is it?

What attracts Capricorn men? You're wondering because one of these men has stirred up your attention. It's understandable given all their undeniably attractive qualities. These men are fiercely loyal when they do fall in love and they ensure their partner knows the depth of their devotion by being extra affectionate and attentive. It's natural for you to want to grab a hold of his heart and keep it always, but first you have to get him to want you just as much as you want him. You can do it with the right approach and knowing what that is comes from the right combination of insight and natural instinct.
Being strong and focused is what attracts Capricorn men. Some women have trouble making even the simplest decisions. These women will find it very challenging to gain and keep the attraction of a man born under this sign. He'll tire easily from her indecisiveness and he'll move on to someone else. Even something as seemingly innocent as not being able to decide where to go for dinner, can turn him off. Know what you want and work towards that always. He'll see that quality in you and he'll find it utterly alluring.
Patience is incredibly important when you are working towards grabbing the attention of a man like this. It can take a Capricorn some time to warm up to someone new and while he does he may appear standoffish or unsure. You can't push him into wanting you before he's ready and any attempt you may make to do so will likely cause him to run in the other direction. Slow and steady definitely wins the race when you want to get a Capricorn man interested. Let him set the pace for your relationship and just follow along. Before you even realize it he'll be telling you just how crazy he is about you.
Always be attentive when you're with your Capricorn. If you allow your phone to monopolize your time of if you two are with a group of friends and you don't pay your man much attention, he will be hurt. These men like to know that they're the center of attention for the woman they're with. That's why it's so important that you listen intently when he talks to you and you stay engaged in the conversation. If you want him to be the center of your universe you need to make him the center of yours.
Every woman has the power to make a Capricorn man fall in love with her. You can have a deep, undying emotional connection with him.

Homemade Panang Curry Paste is the spicy backbone of this velvety vegetarian curry from southern Thailand. Serve it with bowls of jasmine rice for a hearty lunch or dinner.
Ingredient info: Unsweetened coconut milk, chiles de árbol, and fish sauce are sold at better supermarkets. Kaffir lime leaves and tamarind concentrate can be found at Southeast Asian markets.
Heat oil in a large heavy wide pot over medium heat. Add shallots, Panang Curry Paste , and ginger; stir until shallots begin to soften, 2-3 minutes. Add 1/3 cup coconut milk; stir until browned, about 4 minutes.
Add remaining 2 cups coconut milk, 1 1/2 cups vegetable stock, lime leaves, and chiles; stir to blend, scraping up browned bits. Add kabocha squash to pot, set on sides so all pieces fit in a single layer. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until squash is almost tender, 15-20 minutes. Remove squash from pot; stir in cauliflower, carrots, and peppers. Return squash to pot, placing on top of vegetables; cook until all vegetables are tender, 10-15 minutes. Transfer squash to a plate.
Stir tamarind concentrate, half of basil, fish sauce, and lime juice into pot; add tofu. Cover and simmer until heated through, about 2 minutes, adding more stock if too thick. Season to taste with salt.
Divide curry among bowls; top each with 1 wedge of squash; sprinkle remaining basil and peanuts over. Serve curry with steamed jasmine rice.
I'd take a bite and think, " This is kinda boring." Then I'd take another and think, "OMG amazing!" I agree that the sauce was thin. I omitted the tamarind because I don't like it, and added extra lime juice instead.
Delicious though the sauce was a little thinner than expected. Otherwise very pleased.
Good, but very time consuming. Like previous reviewers, I found I needed to increase the cooking time quite a bit. I agree: you need a huge pot. The squash did not fit in one layer and some of my pieces were falling apart when others were still hard. It would be better to cut it in smaller chunks and do as EricaMmm suggested. Since I have plenty of the curry paste left I might make it again (with less fuss) in the future.
Delicious, but an inefficient recipe as written, despite having taken the lazy route and used Mae Ploy panang curry paste (if you¿re ever on the fence about trying this brand, don¿t hesitate: it¿s awesome). Based on reviews, I skipped the tamarind. Probably a good call; it was delicious without. Cooking times were much longer than the recipe indicated. And I¿d advise using a YUGE pot! I thought I was good to go with a 5 quart dutch oven¿ yeah, no. 3/4 of the kabocha had to wait in the wings while DH & I made a dent in the curry. I was able to put the rest back into the pot only after we¿d both eaten¿ more than we should have¿ yeah. *burp* The squash wedges didn¿t really add enough to the aesthetic to warrant that annoying in the pot, out of the pot, back in the pot business. A better plan would have been to cut it into medium-sized chunks and toss them in a few minutes after the rest of the veggies. Or cook til completely done initially, remove, then put back in with the tofu to reheat. In a MUCH bigger pot ¿ did I mention that? ;D I needed a lot more coconut milk & broth than the recipe called for to cover the veggies, though they did release liquid as they cooked. If you can get it, definitely go for the holy basil rather than Italian basil. Yum!
I had previously reviewed this recipe in November and I didn't really like the bitter/sour taste, although my husband really enjoyed it. I spoke to a friend who has had thai cooking classes and she said the sour taste comes from the tamarind paste. So, I made it again in January,and cut back on the tamarind and it was much more to my liking. The complexity of the rest of the flavors is outstanding. I made it again this weekend to use up some kabocha that I bought at the farmer's market and it is really, really flavorful. I still cut back just a tad on the tamarind paste, although next time I may use it all since I'm developing a taste for it.
Excellent! Made with lime juice/zest to substitute the kaffir lime leaves.
I wasn't crazy about this dish and I agree with the prior reviewer that it was sour; almost bitter. I think it was the tamarind paste that did it. I have never cooked with tamarind before (found it at Whole Foods), and a little dab on my fingertip was very sour. Before I put the tamarind in, the curry tasted like a regular coconut curry sauce. I thought adding the tamarind would add some depth, but the sour taste overwhelmed the dish. I agree that Kabocha is hard to cut, but I love the flavor, so I decided it was worth the effort for this dish since it looked so beautiful on the cover. I take a cleaver and cut into the side and then whack the cleaver with a hammer. The squash pops open (usually with a bit of jagged edge). I had a large squash so I cut it into eighths and placed in pot as recommended, but then I took it out after the first 15 minutes of cooking and easily cut the rind off because I don't like eating it. The Thai curry paste that accompanied this dish is wonderful and I will be making that again, but I'll stick with my usual coconut curry sauce next time.
I used jarred kaffir lime leaves - I think that's what made it too sour for me. It wasn't the creamy Thai curry I'm familiar with. I'll try again with fresh kaffir lime leaves if and when I get my hands on some.
I must admit that I haven't made this recipe yet but I want to make sure that it is understood that the inclusion of fish sauce makes this dish NON VEGETARIAN. When I make this dish I will omit this ingredient but to advertise the dish as vegetarian is misleading. Sure one could argue that to omit fish sauce isn't authentic but including it isn't vegetarian.
Followed the recipe exactly for an autumn dinner party and it was phenomenal. Some slight problems, however: kaffir leaves are extremely hard to find. I had to order them online but it was completely worth it (I used import food.com -- 2 day delivery and the total cost was $20 with more than enough leaves to freeze). The curry paste is equally wonderful, but both dishes are pretty labor intensive. Also, kabocha squash is hard to cut and its skin is somewhat thick. Acorn squash works just as well and is easier to handle with thinner skin. An absolutely scrumptious, bold dish for anyone who loves thai curries. It was a complete hit at the dinner party and I would absolutely make this again.
The flavor of this dish is lovely. That said, I would make some changes next time. I simmered the squash for 15 min., which was too long - it dissolved in the stock. Perhaps my wedges were too small, but hard to know. The direction, "remove squash, return squash, transfer squash", is too fussy for me. Next time I'll simply remove the squash when it's done, replacing it after the tamarind concentrate etc., and just before serving.

When Sports and Adult Cerebral Palsy Mix, Every Day Is Game Night for One Loyal Fan Battling CP
Written by Jeff Meyer on 20 Jan 2016
For one cerebral palsy patient found hanging around City College in California, the tendency to catch attention doesn't necessarily stem from his mobility issues, but rather, the boisterous and bold support Anthony Federer is known to exude for his team- City College. While hardly feeling relegated to the role of a sideline fan, Anthony's cerebral palsy condition hardly diminishes Federer's well-known allegiance and attendance at City College Sports events, where the anomaly would be not finding Anthony astride his lime green wheelchair proudly wearing his City College t-shirts and hoodies. While Anthony declines to understand the visible peculiarity of his passion for City College sports, mentioning that the excitement gets the best of him at many to most games, the local community has come to appreciate and rely upon Antony's vociferous support n any number of CCC athletic matches.
Other fans, including his own mother Susan Federer, note the extraordinary passion exuded by Anthony in the depths of a highly dramatic match or game, while also noting Anthony's nearly athletic discipline and consistency to CCC sports events with Anthony becoming a regular at a robust variety of sporting events in and around Hughes Stadium on the City College Campus. How serious is Anthony's dedication to a near fanatic support of ICC athletics? In the dark days between the off-seasons of fall and spring collegiate, athletic seasons, Anthony and his mother can reliably be found watching co-rec basket in the North Gym on campus. Many athletic teams at CCC, including those followed by Federer at times in what can only be described as a die-hard fashion, on the other hand, frequently forgo winter break training.
However, as Anthony notes, winter sets the stage for Spring, and in turn, the return of his favorite sport, which is softball. Moreover, while Anthony gains the most visibility from his regulatory and the vociferousness of his spectating style, he also plays several sports locally himself as well.
While confined to a wheelchair the majority of his life due to cerebral palsy complications, Anthony rarely feared venturing towards, if not on the sports field eagerly at City College. Moreover, the knowledge brought to the multiplicity of the City College teams followed by Federer stands as fairly impressive, with Anthony retaining significant statistical, analytical, and predictive color commentary on a whim regarding the individual standings of his City College teams. The favorite of Federer, of course, includes the "…well rounded and defensively deep" City College girls' softball team for this upcoming Spring season.
Obviously a biased spectator at best by most, his mother Susan also concedes that the softball women's teams hold a special place in the heart of Antony, who enjoys preparing and delivering well-honed pickup lines to the flattered and just as engaging ladies of the City College softball team. But once the action commences, the flirting usually stops, with Anthony's unique ability to combine numerical knowledge into his sports viewing experience as being highly unusual, and according to his mother, perhaps this numeric-strategic thinking in the heat of the action provides Anthony the edge that brings rating of his hometown fandom from loyal to legendary. Moreover, when the majority of cerebral palsy patients face chronic lifelong disabilities and worsening complications, a frequent comorbid condition likely in CP patients even with significant intervention by family members and practitioners to encourage wide-ranging and engaging interests that are commensurate with the unique cognitive and physical disabilities of each patient. In Anthony's case near consummate interest in predominantly City College sports, as well participating in his own athletic pursuits, leaves both Anthony and his mother's lives appreciably interesting, active, and worth embracing each day despite the nature of her son's cerebral palsy. Moreover, to many other regular fans, and, of course, coaches and athletes, a missed match by Federer and his mother are legitimate causes for concern, but also, Anthony is expected to help support City College athletics in their home matches.

37 Inspirational Tom Hardy Quotes On Hard Work
Tom Hardy, born on September 15, 1977, in London, UK. He is known for his good looks, personality, and performances in both offbeat films and mainstream hits. Hardy's childhood and early maturity gave the little signal that he would one day become a movie star. He was expelled from school, then arrested for ownership of a gun, and then he became a drug addict and an alcoholic as a teenager. His profession was unsuccessful to truly take off, but after he entered a drug rehabilitation program in 2003 on a London street. Tom Hardy quotes are inspirational, his saying are motivational as it will teach us the meaning of hard work and how to achieve success.
He has performed in a number of films including, Locke in 2013, a film that takes place almost entirely in a car, with Hardy as the only character who appears on-screen for the entire movie. In 2015 he performed in George Miller's Mad Max, Fury Road. Hardy put his own impression on the character and helped make the film renewal a massive critical and commercial hit. For his act, Hardy received his first Academy Award nomination, for best-supporting actor. In his next film, Dunkirk in 2017, he represented a British fighter pilot. He then returned to funny movies in 2018, in which he supposed the main role of Eddie Brock and his so-called alter ego. In 2020 he featured as the title character in Capone.

"Being an only child, I didn't have any other family but my mom and dad really, since the rest of my family lived quite far away from London." Tom Hardy
"Fame and stuff like that is all very cool, but at the end of the day, we're all human beings. Although what I do is incredibly surreal and fun and amazing and I'm really grateful for it, I don't believe my own press release, do you know what I mean?" Tom Hardy
"The lack of carbohydrates can make you a little crazy." Tom Hardy
"I don't fight really. I try not to fight, actually. I try not to react. I'm a Buddha floating on a lily pad." Tom Hardy
"People who are scary, they terrify me, but I can imitate them. I'm not a fighter. I'm a petite little bourgeois boy from London. I don't fight, I mimic." Tom Hardy
"I had no immediate knowledge of the world of Batman at all. I'm quite incubated. I just keep myself to myself and my dog." Tom Hardy
"I hate publicists and publicity. But I love people." Tom Hardy

"I think it's important that you always transform if you can. That's what I was trained to do. You try and hide yourself as much as you can that's the key to longevity." Tom Hardy
"I think I had only been working nine months when I got 'Star Trek,' and it was huge. It was very overwhelming. So that opened my eyes a bit at an early age, kind of how not be frightened when walking into a responsibility of something like that." Tom Hardy
"And I like people. I like to know what you're really up to. I'm a bit of a nosey busybody. Why do they do the things they do? Why are they prepared to do the things they do to get what they want? When? Where? Who?" Tom Hardy
"I was raised to treat the janitor with the same respect as the CEO." Tom Hardy
"Spirituality seems to me to be for those who've been through hell." Tom Hardy
"I'd learned how to lie and manipulate from an early age so a combination of that, desperation, having to have my own fridge and my umbilical cord back…I had to go out into the world. Then some angel somewhere said: "Have you considered going to drama school?" And this sounded like the solution to all of my problems." Tom Hardy
"We are survivors. We control the fear. And without the fear, we are all as good as dead." Tom Hardy
"I'm from a nice, suburban, middle-class family, but my tattoos remind me where I've been." Tom Hardy
"I'm into parlor dramas. I'm into theatre. I'm trained for the stage. I trained to do Chekhov and Shakespeare, I was trained for the stage." Tom Hardy
"There's two types of acting: convincing and not convincing. People describe me as intense. It's because I care. I am a pain in the ass because I care. Do I know what I'm doing? No. Do I have the best of intentions? Yes. Does that lead to hell? Sometimes." Tom Hardy
"I'm just getting settled as a responsible man but if you split the elephant into little mouthfuls it will be fine." Tom Hardy
"You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling." Tom Hardy
"It doesn't matter who you are. What matters is your plan." Tom Hardy
"Love is doing something you don't want to do for someone you don't particularly like at that moment." Tom Hardy
"It's funny in that because it is acting, and playing pretend, but I didn't see myself being synonymous with these tough-guy roles. That's not really me. I love acting. There was Bane, Warrior, Bronson, and now the Krays. I'm just surprised to be working, mate. Whatever gets me through the door." Tom Hardy
"Ju jitsu is very Buddhist. All that we fear we hold close to ourselves to survive. So if you're drowning and you see a corpse floating by, hang on to it because it will rescue you." Tom Hardy
"I didn't understand how you could do something which is so much fun and be so miserable doing it." Tom Hardy
"My job is to show and tell. If I get better at showing and telling then presumably I get hired more." Tom Hardy
"I'm not a big guy anyway. I'm only, what, 150 pounds? I was 190 for 'Batman,' 179 for 'Warrior.' Films make you look big." Tom Hardy
"Responsibility has a cost, and there is no such thing as a perfection." Tom Hardy
"We're all flawed human beings and we all have a cauldron of psychosis which we have to unravel as we grow older and find the way we fit in to live our lives as best as possible." Tom Hardy
"You don't step on stage to eat; you go there to be eaten." Tom Hardy
"Stop thinking that just because you have a college degree, it makes you smart. I know a lot of people who own a driver's license yet they can't drive for shit." Tom Hardy

A cool, green waterhole in the dripping depths of Carnarvon Gorge.
The second of our top ten Australian day walks, Carnarvon Gorge is a Queensland trek highlight.
A gorge like Carnarvon is custom made for bushwalking. Gouged up to 200m into the earth, it's shaded, has ample water and is chock full of features, from rock art sites to swim holes to cool nooks stuffed with pockets of rainforest.
Carnarvon Gorge – Queensland's answer to the Kimberley?
The walk begins at the gorge's eastern end, following Carnarvon Creek as it zigs and zags beneath towering yellow cliffs to Big Bend, where a large pool makes for a good half-time dip before you retrace your steps back through the gorge. Along the way, there are extensive rock stencils at Cathedral Cave and the succinctly named Art Gallery, and detours into the dripping rainforest gullies of Moss Garden and Ward's Canyon.
Around 500km inland from Rockhampton, and 700km from Brisbane.
This one's got the lot: jaw-dropping scenery and a couple of the finest Aboriginal rock-art galleries in the country.
Ward's Canyon, which shelters a number of king ferns. The largest fern in the world, its fronds are up to five metres in length.
Not difficult, though it can be a long day, so a fair level of endurance will make it a more comfortable outing.

Rolex, Breitling and more watch brands are supporting World Oceans Day
By Bill Prince 29 May 2019
Ahead of World Oceans Day on 8 June, we bring you the dial names doing their bit for our maritime ecology. Whether it's research into repopulating coral reefs or saving the sea turtle, remember, every watch sold (or, in one instance, vote cast) is doing its bit...
Obeying the stipulations of ISO 6425, which describe the required attributes of a diver's watch (including water resistance to no less than 100 metres, all-conditions luminosity and a running seconds hand or other means of confirming accurate timekeeping) is just the start: these days, more eco-conscious brands have stepped beyond the simple merits of the original tool watch to embrace the contemporary concerns of the consumer, in particular the parlous state of the oceans.
And just ahead of World Oceans Day (which falls on 8 June), at the more modestly priced end of the dive-watch spectrum, Certina has chosen to celebrate the 60th anniversary of its own entry into the dive watch market with the original DS Concept by releasing a golden jubilee edition that once again partners withe The Sea Turtle Consevancy, which as serendipity would have it, was also launched back in 1959.
A genuine diver's watch, down to its 300m water resistance, stainless steel 43mm case and unidirectional rotating bezel in black anodized aluminium with protected Super-Luminova markings, it features the Swatch Group's impressive ETA Powermatic 80 self winding movement featuring a power reserve of up to 80 hours. The sealed csebck features the Conservancy's turtle logo and the timepiece is delivered as a special anniversary package saluting the double birth year. Certina.com £730.
Closer to home, last month Breitling launched its 'Waves of Sustainability' mission in support of ex-Team GB athletes Tommy Brady and David Bain in their bid to circumnavigate the Western Isles by canoe in order to highlight ocean pollution.
In addition to the expedition, a beach clean-up took place in the Outer Hebrides - a rather more hostile environment in which to do so than the venue chosen for the announcement of Breitling's global partnership with Ocean Conservancy. Joining its 'Surfers Squad' members Kelly Slater, Sally Fitzgibbons and Stephanie Gilmore for a beach clean-up in Bali, was a special Breitling Super Ocean Conservancy Limited Edition, distinguished by a caseback engraved with the Ocean Conservancy logo and a NATO strap made of Econyl yarn, repurposed fro nylon waste, much of it sourced from fishing nets found in oceans worldwide.
Launched in 1957, the Superocean has long been at the heart of the Breitling collection, recognised for its bold style as much as for its functionality. Now it's found new purpose in supporting Ocean Conservancy, which aims to solve problems requiring multi-actor engagement, based on strong science and smart policy.
The packaging for the watch is also made from 100 per cent recycled material and further benefits from blue-tinged Super-Luminova on minute and hour hands as well as the blue central second hand. Breitling.com £4,880.
In the same spirit of sustainable values, Carl F. Bucherer has partnered with the Manta Trust, a UK-based charity with the mission of conserving the oceans and the habitat of the rare manta ray. The Patravi ScubaTec Black Manta Special Edition is the second timepiece dedicated to the cause, and features a 44.6mm titanium case featuring a helium escape valve and rated to a none-too-shabby 500 metres. Fitted with a rubber strap with a recycled PET textile layer, the COSC certified chronometer has a running time of 38 hours.
Not to be outdone by the competition, the Patravi ScubaTec Black Manta Special Edition features an engraving of the endangered species on its DLC coated case back. carl-f-bucherer.com £5,500.
One brand that arguably has done more than any other for our greater understanding of the oceans is Rolex, responsible for the original waterproof case (the 'Oyster') and, since 1953, the emblematic Submariner, go-to dive watch of choice for generations of subaquatic adventurers and itself responsible for a number of ever-more robust sibling Subs. A few years ago, it equipped Hollywood director James Cameron with the ultimate in Deep Seas to accompany him on his voyage to the deepest part of the world's oceans, but the 'Rolex effect' travels much farther than product placement: on 14 June, it will announce the five recipients of its CHF200,000 Awards For Enterprise prize, in Washington DC.
Launched over 40 years ago in tribute to Rolex founder Hans Wilsdorf, the awards are a pillar of its Perpetual Planet campaign, and recognises those helping to find solutions to environmental challenges. This year the lone UK finalist (of 14) is Emma Camp, a marine scientist seeking to reverse the calamitous decline in the world's reefs by identifying naturally resilient corals and transplanting these 'super surivors' to the Great Barrier Reef, itself a victim of widespread 'bleaching'.
In a break with tradition, Rolex has inaugurated a public vote ahead of the nominated jury's adjudications in DC on 12 June. You can register your support for Emma at rolex.org/rolexawards

Q: How to define which input fields the form has by pressing different buttons? I have a form and a few buttons as below:
<form method="GET" novalidate id="my_form">
  First name: <input type="text" name="fname">

  Last name: <input type="text" name="lname">

</form>
<input name="page" type="hidden" form="my_form" value="1" id="submit">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success" form="my_form">Submit</button>

<input name="page" type="hidden" form="my_form" value="1" id="1">
<button form="my_form" role="button" class="btn btn-link">1</button>

<input name="page" type="hidden" form="my_form" value="2" id="2">
<button form="my_form" role="button" class="btn btn-link">2</button>

<input name="page" type="hidden" form="my_form" value="3" id="3">
<button form="my_form" role="button" class="btn btn-link">3</button>

As you see, I have four submit buttons. What I need is that if I pressed the submit button, the form that contains the first name and last name and the input field that adds page=1 to the GET be submitted. If I pressed, as an example, the button 3 (the last one), the form and only the input that has page=3 be submitted not the other inputs with page=1, page=2, page=3 . I am using this to solve a pagination problem. How can I do this? I prefer not using JavaScript, or if I have to, only a very simple script be used in the solution.
Please note that the number of buttons might be a lot. Actually, they are being inserted by a django template tag like:
    {% for i in page_obj.paginator.page_range %}
    <input name="page" type="hidden" form="my_form" value="{{i}}" id="{{i}}">

A: There is a pure HTML solution to this, make the inputs into the buttons directly. Therefore only the input which corresponds to the button gets passed. Bootstrap classes can then be applied to the inputs for the same look and feel.
Combine
<input name="page" type="hidden" form="my_form" value="1" id="submit">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success" form="my_form">Submit</button>

Into something like
<input name="page"  class="btn btn-success" form="my_form" value="1" id="submit" type="submit">

As you can just make the hidden inputs into buttons directly, which means that page will only be passed from the button which is clicked.
Full code:
<form method="GET" novalidate id="my_form">
  First name: <input type="text" name="fname">

  Last name: <input type="text" name="lname">

<input name="page"  class="btn btn-success" form="my_form" value="1" id="submit" type="submit">

<input name="page" class="btn btn-success" form="my_form" value="1" id="1" type="submit">

<input name="page"  class="btn btn-success" form="my_form" value="2" id="2" type="submit">

<input name="page" class="btn btn-success" form="my_form" value="3" id="3" type="submit">
</form>

Recruiting young adults to child maltreatment research through Facebook : a feasibility study.
Parkinson S and Bromfield L
Child Abuse and Neglect v. 37 no. 9 Sep 2013: 716-720
This article looks at the viability of using social media websites such as Facebook to recruit young adults for sensitive research. It presents learnings from a small-scale exploratory study from South Australia that investigated whether Facebook could deliver a representative sample for a research study on child abuse.
Keep Them Safe evaluation framework: final report
Adamson E, Bromfield L, Edwards B, Gray M, Hilferty F, Katz I, McDonald M, McHugh M and Valentine K
Sydney, N.S.W. : Dept. of Premier & Cabinet, 2010.
'Keep Them Safe: A shared approach to child wellbeing' is the New South Wales Government's five-year plan to change the way children and families are supported and protected. This evaluation framework was commissioned to provide an approach to evaluating the overall impact and implementation of the Plan. The framework has been designed to establish consistent reporting requirements from key components of the action plan to assess the extent to which the plan has met its objectives of improving the safety, welfare and wellbeing of children in NSW, as well as evaluating why aspects of the reform have been successful or not, and processes for using the evaluation outcomes to adjust future approaches based on progressive evaluation findings. This document presents the framework, and features sections on meta-evaluation, results logic, outcomes evaluation, indicators framework, cross-cutting studies, process evaluation, economic evaluation, resource requirements, and key dates and timelines.
Fostering accountability : using evidence to guide and improve child welfare policy
Testa M and Poertner J
"'Fostering Accountability' presents a model of child welfare decision making that holds public officials answerable for the integrity and validity of the actions they take on behalf of the children and families in their care. It operationalizes the concept of results-oriented accountability, which demands that administrators and practitioners show valid evidence of their success in improving child and family outcomes, not merely demonstrate mechanical procedural compliance. Drawing on the experiences of directors, staff, and evaluators, this timely and practical book describes the emergence of results-oriented accountability in child welfare with a special focus on the editors' role in establishing a university-agency research partnership under a federal consent decree. Chapters elaborate on the five successive stages of the results-oriented accountability framework-outcomes monitoring, data analysis, research review, evaluation, and quality improvement-and provide examples of applications of each stage for agency managers. By refocusing the emphasis on developing policies based on agency data, instead of purely reactive approaches that grasp at solutions and often fall short, Fostering Accountability guides administrators in monitoring outcomes, using evidence to select interventions to enhance results, and applying management strategies to evaluate and improve these efforts. The result is a pragmatic implementation guide for administrators seeking to bring safety, stability, continuity, permanence, and well-being to the lives of abused and neglected children in the United States.

Evaluating child abuse and neglect intervention programs
Lamont A
Melbourne, Vic. : Australian Institute of Family Studies, 2009.
Program evaluation is a key component to all child welfare and child protection intervention programs. A rigorous evaluation assists in improving service delivery and enables policy-makers and service providers to determine the effectiveness of an intervention program. This resource sheet provides an overview of the key aspects of program evaluation. It outlines different evaluation types, identifies the key elements to developing a rigorous evaluation and highlights possible limitations in evaluating interventions in the child welfare sector. This resource sheet updates and replaces an earlier version first published in December 2004.
Family support as reflective practice
Dolan P, Canavan J and Pinkerton J
London : Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 2006.
Evidence-based policy : a realist perspective
Pawson R
London : SAGE Publications, 2006.
"Few major public policy interventions are mounted these days without a sustained attempt to 'evaluate' them. Programmes are tried and researched again and again. Yet it is often difficult to know which interventions, and which inquiries, will stand the test of time. [The author] argues that the solution, going by the name of 'evidence-based policy', is to take the longer view. Rather than relying on one-off studies, it is wiser to look to the 'weight of evidence' through the process of 'systematic review.' [The author criticises] the standard model of systematic review and in its place develops a 'realist synthesis' approach. He argues that the real purpose of systematic review is to test and refine programme theory. If we know why, and for whom and in what circumstances interventions work, they may be targeted and developed to counter an ever-changing landscape of social problems."
The effectiveness of parent education and home visiting child maltreatment prevention programs
Holzer P, Higgins J, Bromfield L, Richardson N and Higgins D
Melbourne : Australian Institute of Family Studies, 2006.
This paper investigates the effectiveness of child maltreatment prevention programs. The paper begins with an overview of the different types of prevention programs (for example, primary / universal, secondary and tertiary interventions) and the way in which programs can be evaluated. Different modes of evaluation are described (that is, process, impact and outcome evaluations) and the benefits and limitations of adopting certain methodological approaches are outlined. Particular attention is given to two widely used prevention programs: parent education and home visiting programs. Parent education and home visiting program evaluations are critiqued in order to determine whether these programs are effective in preventing child maltreatment and the degree of evidence that exists to support these claims. The paper concludes by discussing the implications of the present findings and their applicability to practice.
Evaluating human service delivery through client outcomes.
O'Brien T
Evaluating human service delivery through client outcomes : 2005 AES International Conference. Lyneham, A.C.T. : Australasian Evaluation Society, 2005: 9p
This paper describes how evaluating client outcomes can be used in evaluating services. It discusses measuring outcomes, evaluation rationale of prevention and early intervention programs within the Queensland Department of Communities, and evaluation methodologies, and describes two of the pilot programs, Project Circuit Breaker, a crisis family support and child protection service in northern Brisbane, and the Mununjali Jymbi Centre, a family and community program for Aboriginal people in the Beaudesert region.
Benefit assessments in child welfare.
Izmir G and Robinson N
Ashfield, NSW : NSW Department of Community Services, Economics, Research and Information Directorate, 2004
A literature review on benefit assessments in child welfare and related fields is presented in this report, which then examines methods for undertaking benefit assessments of the services funded by the New South Wales Department of Community Services. The report analyses three market based valuation techniques, the surrogate market technique, and three survey based valuation techniques. These valuation techniques may be used individually or in combination to carry out program evaluation and make program funding decisions.
Are intensive family preservation services effective? Sorting the wheat from the chaff.
Kirk R
Intensive Family Services 5th National Practice Symposium : In partnership with families - stepping off the roundabout. Rose Bay, NSW : Matrix On Board, 2004: 27p
In this keynote presentation the author examines the effectiveness of intensive family preservation services (IFPS) and ways in which effectiveness is assessed. He covers past and present research attitudes towards IFPS, problems with measuring success through the rate of placement preventions, and the strengths and weaknesses of various methodological approaches used in IFPS studies.
The Columbus Pilot Project: developing a model for cost-outcome analysis on violence and child abuse cases in the Family Court of Western Australia.
Murphy P and Pike L
Journal of Family Studies v. 9 no. 2 Oct 2003 235-247
This article begins by summarising the Columbus Pilot Project, designed to evaluate a managed interdisciplinary approach to cases of domestic violence and child abuse in the Family Court of Western Australia. A working hypothesis informing the project is that, compared with traditional litigation processes, a managed interdisciplinary approach to these cases will yield outcomes more consistent with children's best interests at lower long-term cost to families, the community, and the Court. The main focus of the article is a progress report on evaluation design issues associated with mapping the costs in these cases.
Using action research to facilitate change in child protection services.
Seymour F
One child's reality - everyone's responsibility : 8th Australasian Conference on Child Abuse and Neglect, 19-22 November 2001 : conference proceedings. Melbourne : Dept. of Human Services, 2001: 6p
The authors have been involved over several years in the planning and development of services for child abuse investigation and therapy, including the development of multi agency (child advocacy) centres and education for court programs. They explain how the action research approach allows for the collaboration of researchers, service providers and clients in the analysis of a social problem and/or related social services. It also allows for the multiple roles demanded of the researcher in facilitation of change. The more common approaches of scientific inquiry and program evaluation assume a one way influence of science on practice, which may partially account for the low rates of utilisation of research knowledge and low participation in research by practitioners. Advantages and problems in action research are illustrated by reference to the child protection projects the authors are currently involved in.
Unlocking the essence of professional home visiting: a strengths approach to improved parenting.
Bryce H
In: Family Strengths: Everybody's Business, Everybody's Gain - The Second Australian Conference on Building Family Strengths, University of Newcastle, December 2001, 18p, Online only (61K)
What happens when a professional home visitor visits a family? What do those involved with professional home visiting value most? If one were to duplicate the essential components of this type of service, what would they need to know and do? Based on the professional home visiting model implemented by Northern Lakes Home Visiting, the authors of this paper address these questions. They begin by describing Northern Lakes Home Visiting, a service of UnitingCare Burnside. Its pilot phase extended from 1997 to 2000, and it continues to operate in the Northern Wyong Shire of NSW. The authors describe the development of the model, its context, theoretical framework and the type of service offered. They also question the usefulness of relying on negative-type indicators to assess services, which are philosophically strengths based.
Evaluating child abuse prevention programs
Tomison A
Melbourne : Australian Institute of Family Studies, c2000.
This paper provides an overview of the current state of program evaluation as it is applied to the field of child abuse prevention, the extent to which empirical evaluation has been used, and the degree to which programs have been shown to be effective. Some of the problems that hamper the rigorous evaluation of real world (in situ) applied social programs are discussed. A 'developmental' framework for the comprehensive evaluation of prevention programs is described, as are some alternative approaches that are capable of providing a more flexible response to the demands of evaluation.
Evaluation and stakeholders' perception.
Gravestock F
In Tucci, J. et al, eds. Agenda for change: solutions to problems in Australian child protection systems: selected conference papers. Clayton, Vic: Australians Against Child Abuse, and Child Abuse and Family Violence Research Unit, Monash University, 1999, p334-344, tables
Because they are reliant on government funding, donations and sponsorships, the authors believe, community based agencies now have to justify their program effectiveness to continue to receive this funding. A reliable evaluation model is an important tool in this process. The authors firstly define evaluation and the stakeholders concerns before giving an example of an effective evaluation. They observe that the reason welfare agencies may not have previously developed evaluation skills is that there has been little money available to do so and that a viable evaluation methodology had not been established. They describe a model used to evaluate the services provided by the Abused Child Trust.

Q: I'm trying to get multiple long run probabilities I'm trying to get the long run probabilities that Theme Parks, Cruise, Hiking, and  City Visits happen but for some reason it wont print out a probability that each will happen. Only a probability for 1. All 4 are suppose to add up to 1.
Any help?
here is my code.

A: The reason is the break statement in your code - it will abort the for loop after one iteration. Remove that and see how it goes.

08:32 pm: Planet Earth Disk 5
This last disk is a miniseries titled Planet Earth: The Future. It's made up of Saving Species, Into the Wilderness, and Living Together. I was a bit taken aback by all the talking heads, particularly as it became obvious that many of them had been interviewed in the same place and that the bits for each of the three episodes were taken from the same interviews. It may not have been as annoying when they were originally shown one hour a week.
We were shown small bits of video, many already seen, between the talking heads. The talking heads all pretty much agreed except for three guys. One, who had trouble keeping a smirk off his face and actually laughed when he said "armchair environmentalist," was Peyton Knight, the executive director for the American Policy Center. Another was a trophy hunter who said if he had to pay $50K to kill a lion, it benefited conservation. The third man was the only one who illustrated actual change and he agreed on the trophy hunting. I would have been more impressed with serious credentialed opposition included in the episodes.
I kept hoping to see or hear about something that really made a difference and there was one: The wild dogs of the Serengetti were dying from diseases caught from pet dogs of the folks who live around the desert. This scientist got money to vaccinate the pet dogs, creating a safe ring around the desert. The owners were happy to have their dogs vaccinated for free, particularly from rabies, and were also happy to help the wild dogs.
While there were interesting bits -- particularly a section with Sandra Postal on water -- a lot of it was different ways of saying the same thing: If we don't change, the animals and plants around us will die and that will change us in ways we don't like.


I have dedicated many posts on this blog to living a stylish and affordable college lifestyle. Ultimately, however, the key to living stylishly and affordably stems from creating a space that is cozy and personal to you.
While I don't live in a dorm room, I know many people who do. The biggest challenge for them is creating a cozy atmosphere that they feel comfortable in.
It's very important to work with what you have, but I would like to pose some important questions to draw your eyes away from that terrible fluorescent lighting and into a designer dream world, full of cozy and affordable ideas.
Ditch the fluorescent lighting. In fact, pretend it never existed. Instead, you should invest in some lamps for your room. The great thing about lighting is that it comes in so many forms.
Do you want something traditional? Stick to a floor or desk lamp.
How about something a little more decorative, but a lot less functional? Stock up on white Christmas lights as soon as they go on sale. String them all over for an ethereal glow, but be sure your college or university allows these in their dormitories first.
Are you tight on space? Let's face, if you're in a dorm room you're definitely tight on space. Buy some pendant lights. You can buy ones that plug directly into the wall and hang it from your ceiling. This will help maximize the space in your dorm.
Another easy way to create an inviting dorm room is to decorate with your personality. Don't be afraid to hang up tapestries, artwork and photographs. Also, placing little mementos around you room makes the space instantly yours. Who knows? You may even prefer studying in your dorm over the crowded library anyways.
My final piece of advice to you dear dorm dweller is this: Plants are your friends. Liven up your dorm a bit with some greenery. I know it makes me happy to see a fresh vase of flowers or a windowsill dotted with tiny potted plants. If you have a black thumb like me, don't fret, because you too can incorporate plants without killing them.
If you invest in some cacti or succulents, you won't have to constantly worry about watering them. If you invest in some lovely, fake plants you'll never have to worry about watering them. Food for thought.
Transitioning out of your parent's home and into a dormitory or apartment of your own is rough. But fear not, because among the pros of moving out is finally getting the opportunity to decorate however your heart desires.
At this point you may be wondering how a college student or young professional can even afford to decorate on such a tight budget. Here's where my roommates and I can help you out.
Oftentimes in college, you're sharing a living space with other students or friends. A great way to live stylishly and affordably is to split the design costs.
The first thing you will want to do is establish a budget. For example, when decoration my apartment, my roommates and I each contributed less than $300 for furniture, accessories and paint.
When combined, we were able to create a $1200 living room space that was both economical when the cost was split up and didn't lack on style.
The next key step is to decide on a style or theme. From there you can select affordable pieces as a group and decide which items each person will buy.
In keeping with our personalities, my roommates and I decided on a punchy, chartreuse color on the walls matched it with modern black and white furniture pieces.
When designing shared spaces, the most important thing to remember is that everyone should have a say in the decision making process.
In the end, I think my roommates and I did a great job. We were able to seamlessly blend our personalities and our budgets to create an atypical, trendy college living room.
Bonus Tip: A great resource for inexpensive and contemporary furniture is Ikea. You can view their inventory online at www.ikea.com.
Want to know what my roommates think about the space? Read on because I asked them the hard-hitting questions about our living room.
What's your favorite part of our living room? I love the television! I also love the personal touches of our pictures on the bookcase shelves.
What were you responsible for buying?I was responsible for buying the bookshelf, picture frames and drapes in the living room and the dining room table, chairs and storage cabinet.
Do you think you'll reuse the stuff you bought in your own apartment or home in the future? I think I'll reuse the dining room furniture in the future because they are pretty typical and necessary household items.
How would you describe the style of our living room? I'm not really sure what the style of our living room is. I definitely think the bright colors and animal print keeps it youthful and modern.
What's your favorite part of our living room? Our walls!
What were you responsible for buying? In the living room, I was responsible for the futon, the side tables and the coffee table.
Do you think you'll reuse the stuff you bought in your own apartment or home in the future? Hopefully not - hopefully I'll have the money to be able to upgrade and donate my old furniture to my sister who'll be starting college.
How would you describe the style of our living room? Contemporary, stylish, chic and fabulous.
As the crisp air began to infiltrate Gainesville last week, I retreated home to DeLand to soak in the last bit of summer. I basked in the warmth of the lights and the smells of fried everything at my local county fair.
As I darted between rides that night, I noticed just how classically beautiful the lit up sky was.
It was inspiring, really. In that moment, my creativity soared. My mind was racing back and forth, bouncing a million little ideas off each other inside my head.
If there's one thing I have learned about creativity in my life, it's that inspiration is simultaneously all around us and also fleeting. You have to take it and run with it when you can.
That's precisely what I did that night. I snapped hundreds of photos, most of them from atop the Ferris wheel I'll admit, but also many from the ground.
I didn't know what I wanted to accomplish taking these photos, but in the moment I was overwhelmed with inspiration and my hands took control of the camera.
The photos could have ended up collecting dust, figuratively of course, on my hard drive, but the day came when my creativity enlivened itself again.
Those photos sparked this discussion about creativity. I say discussion because creativity is never a one-way sort of thing. It's a back-and-forth dance of sort between the creator and the inspiration.
Looking back on that night, I am grateful for taking those photos. Without them, would this post have even been written? I guess I'll never know.
Here is where I proclaim who I am and what on earth I am doing with this blog. For starters, my name is Josh Ferrari. I am a second year public relations major at the University of Florida. I have a passion for interior design, and creative people captivate me.
With that said, I introduce my blog Desks + Design. The purpose of my blog is to document great design, and particularly to document the design of creative spaces. I love walking into someone else's creative domain. Getting a feel for how someone else channels his or her creativity helps me channel my own.
On my journey through great design and inspiring people, I hope that my blog helps your creativity just as much as I hope it will help mine.
