They're required by law to pick 24 tributes to battle it out on live TV, but unlike Survivor and other reality TV shows that are popular today, the only way to win, is to be the last teen alive when it's over. The Hunger Games have begun...does Katniss Everdeen have what it takes to survive?

Washington, DC contains the hunger, power and passion of the world. "Greetings From Lafayette Park" is the new release from Alan J. Lipman, otherwise known as X-Patriate, straight from the complex and flowing, hard and warm, beating concrete heart of Washington.
Embracing styles as diverse as the epic "Pennsylvania Avenue", the tabla- and sitar-fused "Future Remembers", the cool and knowing "Dirty Life", the depth and resonance of "The Cost" and "I'd Rather Close My Eyes" (receiving raves from Whipart), the haunting "Dirty Little Secret", and the uncanny delicacy and eerily encompassing understanding of "The Joke", "Motorcycle Interstitial" and "Unintended Consequences", "Greetings", like Springsteen did via Asbury Park, capture a world in lyrical inner and outer motion, a running narrative of the complex and powerful forms of emotional life--the dark and most human longings, as seen in a city that exemplifies those experiences in all of us.
Lipman writes the lyrics and music to every song on the album. He plays every instrument and sings every vocal.
Lipman creates lyrical passages of depth, complexity and multiple meanings that, at the same time, connect to fundamental human experiences. 'Future Remembers' moves time itself forward and back, portraying the vision of future in the present from the past, in a vision of life beyond how it is lived, as it is lived:
He saw a moment of his future
Bright lights while smelling shop fronds
A shot behind his head (shot)
He saw a light but
It did not dispel his problem
He saw a moment that
Would capture him beyond the light
A bolt to the left (rain)
It seemed important
The mud
That had caught his boot before
A sound to the right
A smiling child
Didn't care about a race
He didn't care about time
He didn't care about future
But there was his future!
Six years later on a Bangkok street
The smell of incense
Brings him back to another day
Was that his future? (laugh)
No, half of the future
Just enough
To remind him what he felt
(Sirens)...
'Dirty Life' speaks to the movement of human self-perception along the inner continua that can define us, in a style reminiscent both of the Beatles and of Dylan's 'Like A Rolling Stone', yet in a voice and music that is new:
First she was a paragon
Then she was a woman
Then she was an animal
Dirty Life
First he was an icon
Then he was kind of hiding out
Then he was holding on
Dirty Life
For long forgotten for all for one
For this for that for soon for done
Forever for now forsake foreseen
For heart for graft for done for been
For in for out forsake foreseen for time
Dirty Life...
And "Pennsylvania Avenue" captures the life and passions of a city, driven and riven by the multiple longings and desires of its residents and constituencies:
Silly little girl makes a video
Tilts her head so cute and tired
As the steam rises from the grates
And outside the Big House
The reporters scatter round
Like packs of nervous birds
Behind the steely gates
And let the steam rise up
And let the people wise up
As I drive down Pennsylvania Avenue
Let the steam rise up
And let the people wise up
As I drive down Pennsylvania Avenue
The young debark at Union Station
New suits and bright eyes
And a gleam to aspire
And/or to acquire
And the elders on the street
Watch the town cars in their fleet
Pass to use the last of them
Fore they expire
And let the steam rise up...
Chipped paint on historic slum
A drum beat
So short so sweet
The hunger for a dance that will feel new
But the trend that brings them here
Is to be a part of 'History'
Which means all will be the same
When they are through
And let the steam rise up...
In "Greetings", you will find 'Vivid lyrics' and 'magic songs'.
-Whipart: 'Beautiful'
-Nighttime: 'Sensation and Passion'
Lucky the llama was ready for a night full of close-ups.

It's been a good year and a half since I read a good book. I absolutely love to read. I have found myself with a little more free time recently so a friend let me take her Hunger Games series with me on vacation. Seej and I read the first one together. I am completely hooked. I'm on to number two, but I have a new food photography book that also just arrived and the two are competing for my time. I have both of them to get through not to mention number 3 in the Hunger Games series. It's comforting knowing I have good books waiting at my bedside.
Approximately 40,000 people are reliant on food aid in Wolayita. Distribution cards like this are used to make sure that every family get’s a fair share, according to their needs.

Today, over 49 million Americans live in food insecure households. There are believed to be three main causes of poverty in the United States: poverty in the world; the operation of the political and economic system in the United States which has tended to keep people from poor families poor, and actual physical mental and behavioral issues among some people who are poor. More than 16 million, or almost one in five, American children are at risk of hunger. Preschool and school-age children who experience severe hunger have higher levels of chronic illness, anxiety and depression, and behavior problems than children with no hunger. Children and adults often rely on food banks to relieve hunger. Although there is no end in sight, many companies like ConAgra Foods and the Food Network are taking great strides against the the fight on hunger in the United States.

I went through some of my older photos and found that one, which I had not previously posted because on first look I had not 100% liked it.... Going back, I think I was wrong :).

(this is one of the photos from the Delta films I thought I totally shot when processing, but which was saved by washing again and a new fix. Thanks again to all that helped me with their advice).
