“Smile an everlasting smile, a smile can bring you near to me….” BeeGees🎶🎼🎶 Hope you are all smiling today……💋💕😍
Firstly, please let me apologise for "disappearing into the sunset". Thank you for your emails to check up on me - you guys are so amazing. We're in the last days before the Final Draw for the 2010 FIFA World Cup that will be hosted in Cape Town, South Africa on 4 December 2009. I hope you will ALL be watching the show.
This is a shot from a few weeks ago. I didn't know at the time but this is a shot of my friend's son, Nicky. Nico (Nicky's Dad) chose the song to go with this shot. It's one of Nico's favourite BeeGees songs - how fitting.
This is a "post and run" - my apologies. I will catch up with you all after the Final Draw again. Have a great week, Everyone!

The Bee Gees were a musical group founded in 1958. The group's line-up consisted of brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio were successful for most of their decades of recording music, but they had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a rock act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and as prominent performers of the disco music era in the late 1970s.

The best live concert we've been to in years... Certainly got our money's worth. This guy has a fantastic vocal range.
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall,
We used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Some one else moved in from far away.
Now we are tall, and christmas trees are small,
And you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
But guess we'll cry come first of May.
The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall,
Do do do do do do do do do...
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Some one else moved in from far away.

The Graham Bonnet Band were playing at the O2 Academy, Liverpool on 11th February 2016.
Here are a few images of the band on stage...
Graham famously sang Since You've Been Gone and All Night Long with rock band Rainbow but his career spans nearly 50 years and he has worked with numerous top musicians including Ritchie Blackmore, Michael Schenker, Steve Vai, The BeeGees, etc.
As a kitten, Bee Gee wanted to know how everything worked in his new world. He's checking out the DVD player.....now that he is a man, he thinks he knows it all :-)
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
Oh you and me girl
Got a lot of love in store
And it flows through you
And it flows through me
And I love you so much more
Then my life..I can see beyond forever
Ev'rything we are will never die
Loving's such a beautiful thing
Oh you make my world.. a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away
Chorus..
You and me girl got a highway to the sky
We can turn away from the night and day
And the tears you had to cry
You're my life..
I can see a new tomorrow
Ev'rything we are will never die
Loving's such a beautiful thing
When you are to me, the light above
Made for all to see our presious love
Chorus..
Love is such a beautiful thing
You make my world a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away
Chorus..
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as wide as a river and harder to cross
Chorus..(repeat and fade)
Lyrics By Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven
After four days of hissing, scratching, crying, and incessant sniffing at each other under the door....they finally love each other!

This part of Red Hill was surveyed and subdivided into suburban portions in the 1860s. The site on which the
Skate Arena is situated was part of portion 737, on the southern side of Enoggera Terrace at the junction with
Musgrave Road, alienated by George Mannion in 1870. Mannion Street, at the rear of the Skate Arena, is likely
to have been named after him. By the late 1880s, portion 737 had been subdivided into smaller residential
allotments. From 1889 until 1920, subdivisions 14 to 28 remained on one title, passing through several owners,
until title to subdivisions 22-27, near the intersection with Musgrave Road, was transferred to Red Hill Picture
Pops Ltd. A number of rental houses had been erected along Enoggera Terrace between Musgrave Road and
Jay Street, but it is not clear whether there were any extant buildings on the site acquired by Red Hill Picture
Pops Ltd in 1920. During this period, Enoggera Terrace continued to be a social hub of Red Hill with the Ithaca
Town Chambers, numerous shops, and other services such as halls and the police station situated along the
street.
In 1920 an open-air ‘picture palace’ was already established on Enoggera Terrace, on the opposite [northern]
side of the road, at the corner of Waterworks Road. This picture show functioned from c1912 until replaced by
Red Hill Picture Pops Ltd.’s new theatre on the other side of the road, c1920-21. In December 1920, the titles
office recorded a bill of mortgage on subdivisions 22-27, portion 737 for £1,500, taken out by Red Hill Picture
Pops Limited from The Public Curator of Queensland. It is possible this helped to finance construction of the new
theatre, which is first listed in the Post Office street directories in 1921.
A c1924 photograph shows the Red Hill Picture Pops theatre as a large, gable-roofed structure with full length
ridge ventilator and a modest façade, on a prominent location on Enoggera Terrace. By March 1925, at least part
of the theatre was of brick construction, the western brick wall of the theatre suffering damage from water
running off the adjacent Red Hill Police Station site at the corner of Musgrave Road and Enoggera Terrace. In
late 1927, the front of the theatre was remodelled at a cost of £380, with the addition of shops. Plans were
prepared by Brisbane architect RT Erskine, and the contractor was W Tinnerman.
A c1932 sewerage detail plan indicates that the structure occupied the whole of subdivisions 24-27, with the
walls erected to the perimeter. This plan also indicates the buttresses located on subdivisions 22 and 23, along
the western side of the theatre, where the land falls steeply.
Through the 1920s and into the early 1930s, Alfred [Bertie] E Moore was secretary of Red Hill Picture Pops Ltd.
and manager of the theatre. The Moore family lived on Waterworks Road, initially just past Church Street from
c1907-c1911, moving to the corner of Waterworks Road and Enoggera Terrace c1911/12 - about the same time
the open-air picture theatre was established next door on Enoggera Terrace. It is likely Bertie Moore was
associated with this first picture theatre as well as the c1920 hardtop. Long-time residents of Red Hill have
recalled that in the late 1920s and early 1930s, Mrs Moore sold the theatre tickets from an island ticket box in the
front foyer. For the evening shows, Bertie Moore always wore a dinner suit and his wife an evening gown with a
fresh rose pinned on the shoulder. Apparently they kept a tight rein on their often unruly audiences, and a slogan
in the foyer read: If you like the program tell your friends, if you do not like it, tell us.
By June 1930, ‘talkie apparatus’ had been installed at the Pops Picture Theatre on Enoggera Terrace. Following
the release of Warner Brother’s first talking picture, The Jazz Singer, in 1927, cinemas world-wide either
converted to sound or closed down. Sound projection leasing or purchasing arrangements were often
exorbitantly high, and many Queensland suburban and rural exhibitors who committed themselves to very
expensive sound projection plant at this period, over capitalised, were burdened with running costs, and did not
survive the economic depression of the early 1930s.
There were approximately 200 picture theatres in Queensland in the 1930s, of which 54, or about 25%, were
located in Brisbane. This was the period when most Brisbane suburbs had at least one picture theatre, if not
more, and competition for audiences was strong. The Red Hill Picture Pops’ closest competitors were the Plaza
Theatre on Latrobe Terrace [opened c1930] and Stephens’ New Paddington Theatre, erected on Given Terrace
c1924.
In 1931 Red Hill Picture Pops Ltd, possibly struggling to survive the depression and the costs of sound
installation, or perhaps renovating the building, took out a second mortgage on the theatre from Richard Francis
Stephens, who was associated with the Stephens-Munro chain of suburban theatres on Brisbane’s north side.
Stephens- Munro ultimately acquired six theatres - the Astor at New Farm, the Imperial at Lutwyche, the Savoy
at Clayfield, the Paddington on Given Terrace, the Arcadia at Ascot, and the Jubilee at Toowong - and
subsidised other small suburban exhibitors like the Red Hill Picture Pops. It is possible the connection with RF
Stephens gave Red Hill Picture Pops Ltd greater bargaining status at the major film distributors’ Brisbane film
exchanges.
In November 1934, the Red Hill Picture Pops theatre was leased to William Edward Kirby, who eventually gained
title to the property early in 1944. Kirby had changed the name of the place to The State Theatre by 1937, and by
1938 the theatre had a seating capacity of 640. In 1948 title passed to State Theatres Pty Ltd, with Kirby still the
exhibitor, and renovations were undertaken in 1950. In 1951, State Theatres Pty Ltd sold subdivisions 22 and
23, the two vacant blocks along the western side of the theatre, with a 1952 easement in their favour over a strip
of this land adjoining the theatre.
In 1954 title to the property passed briefly to Christopher James Sourris and his wife Effie - [the Sourris family
has been connected with other suburban theatres in Brisbane] - but they sold within months to George Londy
and his wife Velio. In 1955, Velio Londy transferred her interest in the property to John Sklavos. With the
introduction of television to Brisbane in the late 1950s, cinema audiences declined rapidly. Many cinemas
installed wide cinemascope screens in an attempt to attract audiences back to the picture theatres, but suburban
cinemas struggled to continue screening films and in the 1960s and 1970s many closed, the buildings converted into alternative uses or the sites redeveloped. By the 1980s, only a handful of single-screen interwar suburban cinemas survived in Brisbane.In an attempt to retain audiences, Londy and Sklavos renovated The State Theatre in 1958, installing a cinemascope screen, a new ceiling, and decorative sound boards along the sides. By 1960, the seating capacity at The State Theatre had increased to 1000.Films continued to be screened at the State into the early 1960s, but in January 1964 the theatre was acquired by David and Shirley Venables, who converted it into a ‘sound lounge’ known as Teen City. Many of Australia’s most popular rock and roll stars played at Teen City, including Little Pattie, Col Joy, and the BeeGees, but the venture ceased within a couple of years. In 1965 the place was converted into the Red Hill Skate Arena. The floor to the rink was constructed of timber and Masonite initially - later a concrete floor was laid. As with the picture theatres which struggled to survive the impact of television in the 1960s, new recreational activities - especially skateboarding and rollerblading made popular in the late 20th century - are eroding the popularity of indoor skating. While still operating as a skating rink, the future of the Red Hill Skate Arena remains uncertain.

This male pays the ultimate price for trying to mate with
the wrong type of female.... only to be eaten alive :)
I think he seriously lacked the skills to handle a lady especially a hot one like this one. if I were him, I would buy her a nice meal of chilly crab and then whispered sweet nothing into her ears if I could find them. Pour her a glass of 1945 French vintage red wine. By now she would be madly in love already. Totally irresistible at this stage and she soon lost control and make great love with me. so much better than being eaten alive. As what the bee gees once said .....staying alive......staying alive !

Maven's Note: Sadly, this is the last post from mavenimagery...for a long time, if ever. Well, I hate to say never. Mavenimagery group will remain active. I had fun. Made great friends. Gained invaluable experiences. Got really, really pissed off, sometimes. The The Fishing Boots Incident image was both rewarding and disappointing. Damn image overshadowed all my works on Flikr. Grrr! Kiding! But, hate to be remembered by that image only. Wouldn't you? Well, that's Flickr. Sharing family and friends photos. And that's what I just did. I flickred with you!
Location: Salinas, California. This is the home where John Steinbeck grew up. That's me standing there. I'm not related to John but I felt as if I was, though, I have no idea what kind of relationship I had with him.
John Steinbeck Web Site:John Steinbeck was born in 1902. My class went to John Steinbeck's home. The first room we went in was the room that John Steinbeck was born in. That room was his mom and dad's room. It had two couches and two chairs. The lady that talked to us was Mrs. Hogan.
Jack-FM, “And now what, Maven? Do you really think they care?”
“I don’t think, Jack. I know.”
Jack FM, “So, you think…sorry, you know that it was worth it to drive a four hundred miles to, um, Salinas, right?”
I just stare.
“…where John Steinbeck’s house is. Stand there with those Peter Pan boots and take selfie and drive back just to post a ‘Farewell to Flickr’ image. Is that it?”
“That’s it.”
“And what’s the story with those fairy-Peter Pan boots?”
“That’s cute. Really funny, Jack.”
“No, seriously…”
“I’m setting a kick-ass trend you lame-o-ass!”
“Impressive.”
“I know,” I say. “Jack?”
“Yes.”
“Why don’t you go and take that stinky, disintegrating shirt off? It’s as old as the Statue of Liberty’s gown, for fuck’s sake. And while on it, get out of this little dumpy building and, like, visit the mall or something. You know. Explore. See what’s out there. Get a life…get a new shirt, Jack!
You’re out of the frame. You’re boring. You’re not funny. You’re not charismatic. You dress like shit. Retire. Eat your trans-saturated fat-rich dinner at 4.00 in the afternoon, play golf, drink Yukon Jack shots and scream "Valhalla!!". Boring middle-age climacteric shit. Okay?
A perplexed look on Jack’s face.
“Thought this interview was about you.”
“I lied.”
“You’re kidding…”
“Nope.”
“Oh. What can I do to look charismatic?”
“ Look at me. I got a very unique name people wonder what it means. My name is Maven Huffman (not real name). A maven is a trusted expert a particular field, who seeks to pass knowledge on to others. I deal and produce ‘maven art’. I’m popular in the Jewish community who knows the meaning of my name. Check out my kick-ass portfolio.
“I did.”
“Mind blowing, creative and out of this world images. Hall & Oats personal photographer said, verbatim ‘You’re images blew my mind’. Let me blow your mind. I got Armani. Boss. Another Armani. This is what you need to have respect today. People evaluate you by your material achievement. Image is everything. You drive a Ferrari even the Heaven's door will open. Not hard, laborious work. No one can see your 160 IQ. Not dressing like the BeeGees. The Grateful Dead. Whatever… No one will be grateful to see your raggedy-ass, awright? You need charisma. You look like the Bum of Beverly Hills.”
“You truly think I’m not charismatic? Or you're just trying to drown Jack-FM?”
I take a deep sigh. “I guess you can’t force a leper to change his spot. I give up, Jack…”
Maven has left the building. Literally!
“You never really leave a place or person you love, part of them you take with you ,leaving a part of yourself behind.”
Maven
“There are souls in this world which have the gift of finding joy everywhere and of leaving it behind them when they go.”

Gazing in awe, I stood in front of an old, impressive Victorian house. I see a man, in his late fifties, perhaps taking a walk, approaching toward me on the sidewalk. “You know where the John Steinbeck’s House is?” I ask casually.
He stops and looks at the Victorian house, his face wears a clueless expression. “I’m not sure. Isn’t it this one?”
“The sign says Sargent House.” I say, pointing at the huge wooden sign. “Not Steinbeck’s House.”
“Right,” says Mr Clueless. “It looks like this one, though.” Then he turns toward the direction he just came by.
“It could be somewhere back there. I think…”
“Yes. That’s what Tom said.”
His face turns blank.
“The GPS.” I say, rescuing the uncomprehending look.
“Oh.”
“Thanks. Appreciate it, sir.”
I watched Mr Clueless as he walked away and wondered how many times he had walked this sidewalk, oblivious to his surroundings. No one would expect him to salute the House every time he passed by, but just to be aware of where he treads and where he puts his head on the pillow at night. If I were John Steinbeck, I would commit suicide in my grave...die again and again.
We live in a time where even the monks are busy. Check this out: Two Tibetan monks set themselves on fire Monday in a protest over China's tight rein over Buddhist practices, a rights group said as the Chinese government reiterated it will choose the next Dalai Lama. Hello? Can we, like, meditate here?
We fail to see what is in front of our nose. We take the ‘close by’ for a granted. The farther a person, place, historical place, legend, landmark is the more fascinating. Locals don’t give a rat’s ass about what’s around them. Today, I strolled along Hollywood Boulevard. I realized how much I missed to notice. Who the hell is ‘Sid’?
I stood in front of this Queen Anne style Victorian which was the birthplace and boyhood home of author John Steinbeck.
The by-passers this time were young: a little girl, probably twelve years old and an elder sister. They stopped, showing courtesy for not interrupting the shot.
Click.
I motioned at them to pass by.
“You know what this house is?” I asked.
“Um, it’s a gift shop,” said the elder sister.
“Really?” I feign surprise. “What kind of gift shop?”
“They sell old books, I guess. And postcards of an old man…”
“Interesting. Ever been inside?”
“Nah, I don’t like old books.”
“John Steinbeck,” interrupts the little girl. “He is an author. They sell his books and portraits. Ms Eleanor told us in school.”
Hats off to the new generation. Those kids know more shit than the rest of us…\

Thanks for the Explore =)
Okay, this post has nothing to do with a disco planet -- this is a home-made little bitty disco ball my wife made some eons ago.
The point of this post is to announce a little something new --
Jet Pack.
[ www.jet-pack.net ]
What is Jet Pack? Well, I encourage you to bop on over to the site to check it out, but in brief: fiction, and fiction-related deliciousness, all done under a self-publishing model (aka "The Dirty Model").
The site is home to some of my work (and will be home to more of it), as well as home to the work of two other writers, Will Hindmarch and Wood Ingham.
So, go. Check it out. Breathe in the heady fumes of the Jet Pack's roaring engines. Suck in the vapors. Learn to love the Jet Pack.

If only I had a balcony like my downstairs-neighbour....
Today's weather made me long for 'old' music. So I listened to The Beatles, The Beach Boys and The Beegees. It's a lovely sunny B-day!!

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
The Beatles ~ Here Comes The Sun
I appreciate all critiques, comments and faves. I'm here to learn!
How deep is your love?
I really need to learn
cause were living in a world of fools
breaking us down
when they all should let us be
we belong to you and me.
¿Como es de profundo tu amor ?
Realmente necesito aprender
porque vivimos en un mundo de locos
dañándonos
cuando deberían dejarnos ser
pertenecernos el uno al otro.
