No invites please, I just want you to smile like I did when I saw this and reminded my childhood when we did the same to an opposing team when we play football (soccer)
In his element, this is Banquo. He is the primary reason for my understanding of Scott's grief.
Banquo was, well, put simply: impressive. Look at that gaze! He's scanning the hill, both form and function built into that mighty physique. A gentle giant, he could stand on this back legs, forepaws on my shoulders, and look me in the eye. One night as I came out of the dark, unannounced, his challenge curdled my blood — deeper, more resolute, more final than any I'd heard before, or since. It was nothing manic, it wasn't a threat. It was a promise.
He took that presence into the show ring where he was awarded again and again for his perfection. His career was short. He was a two speed dog! His fearless approach to life meant inevitably he was injured in ways that left him without his true gait. The show ring rewards conformational perfection; tested in trotting manoeuvres. And so, with his Champion Award banked early, he retired, still head of the pack, still at home on the hill, at home in driven sleet, fully engaged in his favourite fantasy of stags and hounds, keen as always — forever.

This is Prima Dolly Marigold, one of my older Blythe dolls. I usually reach for a new girl when it's photo time, so she is one of many who don't get as much exposure as I wish they did. Her sunny coloring is perfect for this "sea shore" theme in the Blythe a Day group.
Snapped this one on my way out the door, going to work in the morning. New suit and new purse.........I felt absolutely wonderful even though it's a Monday morning. :-)

Lode clay deposit was discovered in 1953 by the geologist J.Slienis. Ten years later industrial extraction of clay for brick-making was started. The clay-pit became world famous when the geologist V.Kuršs in 1970 first time in the history of the world discovered well preserved fossils of Upper Devonian armoured fish and Strunius kurshi fish. Still nowhere else fish fossils in such good condition have been discovered; part of the fossils can be viewed in the expositions and funds of Latvian Museum of Natural History. Nowadays clay is extracted by the company „Lode“ which produces finishing, oven-chimney, and construction bricks, as well as other clay items. The Lode armoured fish deposit is a protected nature monument.

Over 50 years ago as a young farm teenager, baling hay, milking cows and cleaning out hog sheds by hand guided my career decisions more than almost anything. In this photo, the past and the present of farming lie side by side. Round bales replaced the back breaking work of loading and unloading bales on a hay trailer. Few windmills in Minnesota still pump water and the old graineries have been largely replaced by newer methods of drying crops.

Alexander P Type bodied Leyland Tiger, new to Northern Scottish where it lasted 15 years before going to Lloyds of Bagillt. Sold on in 2003 it passed to Ennis, Matlock, where it acquired this bright yellow livery for school services and then ended up at Belle Vue auctions as seen here in August 2007. That was to be the end of operating career as it was bought by Martin Perry and went on a one way trip to to his Herefordshire graveyard although I think it 'rested' there for some years before finally meeting its end.

Gene Kelly (1912-1996) was an American actor, dancer, singer, filmmaker, and choreographer. He was known for his energetic and athletic dancing style, his good looks, and the likable characters that he played on screen. He starred in, choreographed, or co-directed some of the most well-regarded musical films of the 1940s and 1950s until they fell out of fashion in the late 1950s. Kelly is best known today for his performances in films such as Anchors Aweigh (1945), On the Town (1949), which was his directorial debut, An American in Paris (1951), Singin' in the Rain (1952), Brigadoon (1954), and It's Always Fair Weather (1955).
Eugene Curran Kelly was born in 1912 in the East Liberty neighborhood of Pittsburgh. He was the third son of James Patrick Joseph Kelly, a phonograph salesman, and his wife, Harriet Catherine Curran. By the time he decided to dance, he was an accomplished sportsman and able to defend himself. He attended St. Raphael Elementary School in the Morningside neighborhood of Pittsburgh and graduated from Peabody High School at age 16. He entered Pennsylvania State College as a journalism major, but after the 1929 crash, he left school and found work in order to help his family financially. He created dance routines with his younger brother Fred to earn prize money in local talent contests. They also performed in local nightclubs. In 1931, Kelly enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh to study economics. His family opened a dance studio in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh. In 1932, they renamed it the Gene Kelly Studio of the Dance and opened a second location in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, in 1933. Kelly served as a teacher at the studio during his undergraduate and law-student years at Pitt. Kelly eventually decided to pursue a career as a dance teacher and full-time entertainer, so he dropped out of law school after two months. In 1937, having successfully managed and developed the family's dance-school business, he finally did move to New York City in search of work as a choreographer. His first Broadway assignment, in 1938, was as a dancer in Cole Porter's 'Leave It to Me!' Kelly's first big breakthrough was in the Pulitzer Prize-winning 'The Time of Your Life' (1939), in which, for the first time on Broadway, he danced to his own choreography. In 1940, he got the lead role in Rodgers and Hart's 'Pal Joey', choreographed by Robert Alton. This role propelled him to stardom. Offers from Hollywood began to arrive.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was the largest and most powerful studio in Hollywood when Gene Kelly arrived in town in 1941. There he made his film debut with Judy Garland in For Me and My Gal (Busby Berkeley, 1942). The film was a production of the Arthur Freed unit at MGM and it was one of the big hits of the year. The talent pool at MGM was especially large during World War II, when Hollywood was a refuge for many musicians and others in the performing arts of Europe who were forced to flee the Nazis. Kelly's film debut was followed by Cole Porter's Du Barry Was a Lady (Roy Del Ruth, 1943) with Lucille Ball, the morale booster Thousands Cheer (George Sidney, 1943), Cover Girl (Charles Vidor, 1944) opposite Rita Harworth, and Anchors Aweigh (George Sidney, 1945) with Frank Sinatra. MGM gave him a free hand to devise a range of dance routines for the latter, including his duets with Sinatra and the celebrated animated dance with Jerry Mouse—the animation for which was supervised by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Anchors Aweigh became one of the most successful films of 1945 and Kelly was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor. In Ziegfeld Follies (1946), Kelly collaborated with Fred Astaire, for whom he had the greatest admiration, in 'The Babbitt and the Bromide' challenge dance routine. He co-starred with Judy Garland in The Pirate (1948) which gave full rein to Kelly's athleticism. It features Kelly's work with the Nicholas Brothers—the leading black dancers of their day—in a virtuoso dance routine. Now regarded as a classic, the film was ahead of its time but flopped at the box office. Kelly made his debut as a director with On the Town (1949), for Arthur Freed. Stanley Donen, brought to Hollywood by Kelly to be his assistant choreographer, received co-director credit for On the Town. A breakthrough in the musical film genre, it has been described as "the most inventive and effervescent musical thus far produced in Hollywood."
Two musicals secured Gene Kelly's reputation as a major figure in the American musical film. First, he directed and starred in An American in Paris (1951) with Leslie Caron. The highlight of the film is the seventeen-minute ballet sequence set to the title song written by George Gershwin and choreographed by Kelly. The sequence cost a half-million dollars (U.S.) to make in 1951 dollars. Kelly's many innovations transformed the Hollywood musical, and he is credited with almost single-handedly making the ballet form commercially acceptable to film audiences. In 1952, he received an Academy Honorary Award for his career achievements, the same year An American in Paris won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Probably the most admired of all film musicals is his next film, Singin' in the Rain (1952). As co-director, lead star, and choreographer, Kelly was the central driving force and unforgettable is Kelly's celebrated and much-imitated solo dance routine to the title song. Kelly continued his string of classic Hollywood musicals with Brigadoon (1954) with Cyd Charisse, and It's Always Fair Weather (1955), co-directed with Donen. The latter was a musical satire on television and advertising and includes his roller-skate dance routine to I Like Myself, and a dance trio with Michael Kidd and Dan Dailey that Kelly used to experiment with the widescreen possibilities of Cinemascope. Next followed Kelly's last musical film for MGM, Les Girls (1957), in which he partnered a trio of leading ladies, Mitzi Gaynor, Kay Kendall, and Taina Elg. It, too, sold few movie tickets. Dale O'Connor at IMDb: "Kelly was in the same league as Fred Astaire, but instead of a top hat and tails Kelly wore work clothes that went with his masculine, athletic dance style." He finally made for MGM The Happy Road (1957), set in his beloved France, his first foray in a new role as producer-director-actor. After leaving MGM, Kelly returned to stage work.
After musicals got out of fashion, Gene Kelly starred in two films outside the musical genre: Inherit the Wind (Stanley Kramer, 1960) with Spencer Tracey and Fredric March, and What a Way to Go! (1964). In 1967, he appeared in French musical comedy Les Demoiselles de Rochefort/The Young Girls of Rochefort (Jacques Demy, 1967) opposite Catherine Deneuve. It was a box-office success in France and nominated for Academy Awards for Best Music and Score of a Musical Picture. Kelly directed films without a collaborator, including the bedroom-farce comedy A Guide for the Married Man (1967) starring Walter Matthau, and the musical Hello, Dolly! (1969) starring Barbra Streisand and Matthau. The latter was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. He appeared as one of many special narrators in the surprise hit That's Entertainment! (Jack Haley Jr., 1974). The compilation film was released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer to celebrate the studio's 50th anniversary. The film turned the spotlight on MGM's legacy of musical films from the 1920s through the 1950s. Kelly subsequently directed and co-starred with his friend Fred Astaire in the sequel That's Entertainment, Part II (Gene Kelly, 1976). It was a measure of his powers of persuasion that he managed to coax the 77-year-old Astaire—who had insisted that his contract rule out any dancing, having long since retired—into performing a series of song-and-dance duets, evoking a powerful nostalgia for the glory days of the American musical film. It was later followed by That's Dancing! (Jack Haley Jr., 1985), and That's Entertainment, Part III (Bud Friedgen, Michael J. Sheridan, 1994). Kelly received lifetime achievement awards in the Kennedy Center Honors (1982) and from the Screen Actors Guild and American Film Institute. In 1999, the American Film Institute also ranked him as the 15th greatest male screen legend of Classic Hollywood Cinema. Gene Kelly passed away in 1996 at the age of 83 in Beverly Hills, California, U.S. His final film project was the animated film Cats Don't Dance, not released until 1997, on which Kelly acted as an uncredited choreographic consultant. It was dedicated to his memory. Gene Kelly was married three times: yo actress Betsy Blair (1941-1957), Jeanne Coyne (1960- her death in 1973) , and Patricia Ward (1990- his death in 1996).

My Career Path
When I graduated from high school in 2003 I was a very confused young man. I did not know much about life but I knew few things about Jesus Christ. I did not have street smarts—I matured very late!--but I knew few Biblical principles. One of the things I knew was that God has a plan for my life and being a new high school graduate I wanted to know His will for my career. So I decided after high school I would work wherever until I discern my God-given talents, and once I know His will for my career then I would pursue getting an education that prepares me for that career path. My high school teachers did not understand why would a student whose overall average never dropped below 90% would want to be a general labourer.
Anyway, after graduating I went to few temporary work agencies to find work. I had to buy steel toed safety shoes because most general labour jobs require them. Pretty soon I found myself working in the warehouse of a clothing company. My boss was a Chinese man who had spent 30 years working there, and my supervisor was an older Chinese man who been working there for many years too. They soon liked me and hired me after 6 months, while temporary workers who have been working there for years were still working for the agency. Two months after being hired the company had their annual wages raise and I did not qualify for it because I had to be working as a full-timer for a full year to qualify for it. But my boss called me into his office and told me that he liked the work I did and wanted to help me and so he gave me a 6% raise which I really appreciated. When I left the office the senior full time workers asked me how much I had gotten for a raise so I told them 6% and suddenly they disliked me! I did not know why their attitude changed toward me until the next day when I found out that the reason was becausethat all full-time workers had gotten only a 3% raise. Like I said, I was very naive and I did not know better as not to disclose this information. Anyway, in the next 3 years my boss had given me about 45% raise, while they had gotten anywhere between 1-3% annual raise.
The reason my boss liked me is that I did every and anything without complaining—I simply did whatever they asked me no matter how menial it was. The Bible says in Colossians 3:23, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.” And my mottos were, “I get paid by hour so I work by hour”, and, “There is a reason why it is called ‘general labour’”—so I never complained about the type of work I had to do or the pay because when I accepted a general labour position I understood two things: I will get paid little, and I will have to do a physical and dirty work.
Anyway, my boss realized I loved to fix mechanical things: paper shredder, lift truck, a table, a cart. So over 3 years he kept asking me to fix broken things around the warehouse, and I realized how much I loved working with gears and mechanical things in general. These experiences brought back memories of how in my teenage years in Iraq I spent all my summer breaks building remote controlled cars, airplanes, and making toy guns and foosball tables, and so on! So I knew I wanted to become a mechanical engineer and therefore 4 years after working in the warehouse I started studying mechanical engineer at UofT.
What I really want to draw attention to is God’s goodness. See, I did not choose the warehouse I worked at but our heavenly Father put me in the right place working for the right boss. People told me that I was working in the wrong place because of their limited wisdom, but God in His infinite wisdom knew what He was doing. God knew what I needed, and so He put me where I needed to be. Being a stubborn person I knew better than listening to people—no matter how well intended their intentions were—because I knew few things:
1) God is real—He exists! (Hebrews 11:6)
2) He is the God of the Bible and I know Him because He revealed Himself in the person of Jesus Christ. Whenever I wondered, “Who is this God I am waiting for?” I realized I knew who He is because I knew who Jesus Christ is. (John 14:9)
3) He is a good, loving, faithful, wise and powerful God, and He is my heavenly Father.
4) He has His own timing and ways of doing things.
So working at the warehouse was His way of helping me find my God-given talent. When I applied to UofT I was told that it was a good thing I had applied then because any high school diplomas older than 4 years old would not be accepted; I did not know that but God did and that was His timing.
***
I worked at the warehouse for 2 summer breaks while I was a student at university. In the third summer, in 2010, the clothing company was going through bankruptcy and so they did not have work for me. I needed work because I needed money for the next school year so I applied to some summer engineering internship. I got an interview so I went to it. The interview lasted 2.5 hours and it was by far the worst interview I had ever heard of! It was so bad that it did not matter what I answered to the questions of the engineer who was interviewing me, the answers were wrong! I mean, he even criticized the font size I used in my resume—which was 11 points instead of 12! I wanted to be out of there so bad, and I hoped he would not hire me because I was too embarrassed to see him again! At the end of the interview he told me that his career was delayed 4 years also because when he graduated, some 30 years earlier, Canada was going through a recession and he could not find a job for 4 years.
After the interview my sister asked, “How did the interview go?” And I told her, “Don’t even ask. If he hired me it would truly be a miracle!” And she said, “That’s right. We have a God who works on our behave.” Two weeks later he called me offering the job alongside one of my classmates. He initially just wanted to hire one student—which was my classmate--but decided to hire me anyway. My boss (the interviewer) turned out to be a very cool and nice man who I learned a lot from. I think I did a good job there and I was offered a full-year internship but I really wanted to go back to school and finish it as soon as possible. Of course this 4 months long engineering experience helped me a lot to include an actual engineering experience on my resume.
For some reason I never felt qualified to do that job, even though I believe I did a good job. I think it is because the engineer who hired me did so more because he felt sorry for me than needed my services. (I think he also hired me because he was able to associate with the experience of having your career delayed 4 years.) I want you to keep this in mind because I will touch back on this point later.
After graduating in 2011 I was desperate for a job, any job, and after few months I found myself working at a government company. I worked there for 6 months and I did not like the job even though the people were nice and the pay was good. My task in the last 2 weeks was so boring that on the last day I was afraid my boss would extend my contract! I so wanted to be out of there even though I knew that would mean I would be unemployed and without money!
After a couple of weeks and getting bored of staying at home I prayed a short and simple prayer asking for two things:
1) I told God that the point of studying mechanical engineering was not to become any engineer or to make money, but to put the talents He had given me into practice. That means I want a design position, and engineering is such a broad field that you can do so many things that are not related to your God-given talents.
2) I told God that I wanted to work at a company that wants to hire. A company that believes I am valuable to it. A company where I feel appreciated.
Few weeks ago I saw this job advertisement on the internet seeking a mechanical designer at an office furniture company. The job required the candidate to have 2-3 years experience and knowledge of sheet metal and a design software called AutoCAD. I did not have any of the requirements so I did not apply to that position, and I can still remember thinking, “This sounds like the job I want, but too bad I don’t qualify otherwise I would’ve applied to it!” Next day a staffing agency called me and told me to come see them about that same position. I was very surprised and so I went to the agency. I was so surprised by the whole ordeal that at the end of the interview with the agency personnel I asked him, “How did you get my resume?” He looked surprise and said, “What do you mean? You sent it to me!” I am sure I sent him my resume and I don’t remember it because I applied to quite few jobs, but the strange thing is that I only remember not sending the resume!
I told the agency that I have no experience in design and I have no knowledge with sheet metal or AutoCAD, but they told me it is ok because the company wants to interview me. So I went to the interview and half way through the interview the senior engineer and hiring manager asked me, “When can you start?” And I was taken aback by his question because they usually ask that question after the interview is over and they usually ask it very casually like, “If you are the successful candidate, what date are you available to start?” So I asked, “Me?” And he laughed and said, “Yes!” And his expression was like, “Who else?!” And I felt like the senior engineer really wanted to hire me, not because he felt sorry for me, but because he believed I can be a valuable member of his team.
The week after I was interview by a human resources lady and half way through the interview she said, “That’s impressive.” And again I felt like I was being valued at this company. That is when I remembered the request in my prayer.
***
Christians we often say, “Trust and obey.” In my life I noticed that is not the complete picture because it is more like, “Trust, obey and trust.” See our obedience is not the end of the story because our obedience is not what gets things done. Our obedience is only an expression of our faith; you say you trust God? Ok then act on this trust by obeying Him. But it is God who gets things done—God’s work is the end of the story. That is why after obedience we still need to trust again to see Him complete His work. For example Gideon trusted God will bring victory though him so he obeyed by downsizing his army to mere 300 men, and then he trusted again as he saw God defeating the enemy—trust, obey, and trust again.
There are few things I want to draw your attention to:
1) We must pray according to God’s will. Supposed that I had prayed for God to make me a successful singer, do you think He will honour my request? The answer is no, because singing is not my talent. When you pray according to God’s will then you do not have to beg and you can pray with confidence. You cannot disobey God and expect Him to fix your deliberate mistakes by simply praying about it.
See, I like classical music but that does not mean I have to become a musician—I can simply enjoy the music of others. I like tennis but that does not mean I have to become a tennis player—I can simply enjoy the game of others. I like cars but that does not mean I have to build my own car—I can simply enjoy the cars made by others. It is wonderful and freeing to know and accept God’s will for our lives. If we do then we can accept ourselves and others, appreciate our talents and the talents of others, and be confident of the path we are to take.
2) Focus on God’s goodness. When I was a new Christian I thought that I was saved by grace but I am to live by works, but we are both saved and are to live the Christian life by God’s grace. If I told you how imperfect and sinless I am then you would say, “Fadi, there is no way God was involved in answering your prayers or your career path!” But this is not about me but about God’s goodness. I have come to the point if life when I do not worry much because I trust in the goodness of God. I am not saying this to encourage you to sin but to free you from worry and the false teaching of living by works.
See, our God is a good God. We are His children not because of our works but because of the Cross of Jesus Christ. For example, suppose that you are Christian and you are an alcoholic and you are struggling with quitting drinking and suppose that your marriage is in trouble and your family needs a healing. Do you think God is going to say, “Gee! Look at this Christian! He can’t stop getting drunk and now He needs my help to heal his marriage! There is no way I am doing that for him! Let him fix himself first then come asking for My help! I am so going to destroy his marriage in the meantime!” No, of course not! At least that is not how the God of the Bible operate and He is the only real God.
Suppose if I am holding the hand of my nephew and we are walking on the side walk but he really wants to run into the busy street to play, do you think I will let him do so just because he wants to? Of course not! I won’t act based on his attitude or actions, but based on my goodness and the fact that I am his uncle and he is my nephew and that I love him! For you this may not be big news but to me it is because I grew up in a Middle Eastern culture where there is no Biblical understanding of who God is. That is why I want to stress the goodness and love of God to you.
3) We are not ruled by the ways this world rule. We are God’s children born by the power of the Holy Spirit, and therefore we do not belong to this world. The principles of this world do not apply to us because we are governed by spiritual principles such as God’s goodness, obedience, and glorifying our heavenly Father. The way God works in our lives is not the same way the world strive to achieve their dreams. Recently I offered to help a Christian facebook friend with her resume because she did not have one and she was about to give up applying to better jobs because she had no resume. The first thing she told me is that people have told her that she needs a really good resume to get a job as a hospital pharmacist. And that made me reflect on my career path and I answered her saying that if God wants her to work somewhere He can do it even if she had no resume at all! That is what He did to me: I got a job I am so unqualified for! He made me find favour in the eyes of the engineers who interviewed me; they knew I was not qualified for the original job posting so maybe they created a junior job position for me.
4) Do not worry. My mom says it is not good that I am worry free (I do worry, of course, but much less than the average person) because she wants me to hurry and get married, and have kids, and buy a house, etc. But why should I worry? If, motivated by love, God sent His only and beloved Son to die for my sins before I was even born, then what can separate me from the love of my heavenly Father? See, my attitude toward life does not come from self-confident (if you had read my older writings you will realize I grew up with no self-confidence), nor my careless attitude toward life as some people think I am, but from my trust “that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his.” (Romans 8:28) It is good to read the Bible and understand it, but a time must come when we start living it.
I talked about God’s goodness toward me and my career path, but His goodness extends to all areas of our lives: spiritually, physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, relationships, and so on. He wants to take care of you whether it is in regard to your career, marriage, big decisions such as buying expensive things like a house or a car, or planning a career move or even finding the right mechanic for your car!
Few years ago I asked, “How can I get to know God as my heavenly Father since I do not have an idea what a good father is?” I asked that question because I rarely saw my earthly father while growing up because he had to spend most of his time in the army. I learned about what is it like to have a good father from God Himself; God did not need someone to go ahead of Him to show the way—He showed the way! He set the pattern of love, goodness, generosity, and serving and He set the pattern of how to be a good Father.

My write up on photographing the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas here
On the weekend of November 20-21, 2010, I was invited to photograph the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas prior to their opening December 15, 2010 in Las Vegas NV.
This set of images represents my efforts that weekend to showcase this newest resort property opening up on the Las Vegas Strip. Thanks to David Scherer from The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas for showing me around, to Miiko Mentz at Katalyst Films for helping to arrange the shoot, and to my wife for modeling for me.
