If I could sum up the life lessons my mother taught me into three things it would be these:
1, be kind to everyone, even the annoyingly awkward girl in your grade that you don’t really want to be at your birthday party. Put yourself in her shoes, how would it feel being the only person in your grade not invited to the party?
2, never leave the song ‘brown eyed girl’ or ‘man I feel like a woman’ un-danced.
3, always follow the rule of thirds in a photograph.
Well, sorry Mum, the first two stuck but I just love to blatantly ignore the last rule.
What is something you wish you were better at?
I wish I were better at making the right decisions. Going to Wilsons Prom today wasn’t the right decision but it was soooo pretty and fun!

INDIA' Where else?
One year after the success of our first video in Shanghai ( vimeo.com/33024534 ) Pierre Lelievre and myself "Anthony Finocchiaro" decided to find adventure around in a much more exotic place.. INDIA !
We landed in Delhi but with the clear intention to visit the country as much as we could.
For ten days in India, we had the intention to find a way of transport to escape from the big city and mix with the local population, the real one !!! We planned to take a great life lesson and also share our love of the inline skating, roll on virgin spots and learn skating to the young generation.
Two days in Delhi was almost enough for us to skate most of the city ... Cosmopolitan population shortly shared the info that two crazy Frenchies were inline skating through the streets jumping all the obstacles and catch the tuktuks. It was fun to hear people saying to use "Nice shoes " speaking about our skates, but every time was a challenge for us to explain what is " inline " and what we do here, as we had many questions from curious people.
After some research we decided to rent a motorcycle and go to Agra to visit the Taj Mahal, it was a 200 km road trip between the two cities, which is not really not much in Europe ... But here 200km bike that can quickly turn into a 6/7 hours drive, which was ideal for us to make a few more stops through different cities. So we took the time to stop in beautiful spots where we shared moments with Elephants , snake charmers or cricket players.
We arrived late in Agra but we we still headed straight to the Taj Mahal where our first meeting has been with a tribe of stealing monkeys who tried to ride our bike and wear our helmets… After fighting this crazy monkeys we fully enjoyed a beautiful sunset under the walls of Taj in the company of military guards who were amused to see two tourists a bit like no other, and laughed to hear us saying that we came straight from Delhi with our destroyed motorcycle ... haha.
We spent a total of two days in this beautiful city, made incredible encounters and especially memorable sessions but also left a few pieces of our famous motorcycle after a spectacular crash. We managed to land safely but the bike lost its first and second gear ... so you can imagine what it may look like to start from Zero with the third gear…
Back to Delhi we lost our third gear so it was really hard to continue to tour with this lethal weapon in the middle of the jungle road, so we decided to give back this broken shit and continue to end this journey by skitching cars, tuktuk or even camels, but always making extraordinary meetings with inlines on our feet!
For this trip we used both the SEBA FR1 Orange & Blue customized way FR-A by adding the soulplate, and the new SEBA Street Invaders wheels which really passed the test on this very difficult grounds.
For amateur or Pro skater, this skate skate was more than ideal for this safari trip. THANKS SEBA Skates and thanks everyone who made this trip so special, I hope to feed back and show these pictures to as much people as possible!
Also thank you Pierre for being always on top, this is just the beginning of our adventure ..
THANK YOU

Let us tell you the reason people spy on relationships Every profession gives you some life lessons, my profession is probably the most. Often people ask me why do people spy in relationships and my answer is the same every time - because people lie in relationships, hide their truth. We are living in a time where everything is covered. What is visible is not true. What is true is on the screen. People are lying in personal relationships, lying to friends,They are lying in the family, they are lying in the company, they are lying about themselves on social media. After living in this profession for so many years, I came to understand that people are not telling them who they are all the time, everywhere. The lie has become so big that it has become their truth.
We at Spy Detective Agency in Delhi have all kinds of clients. Women hurt in relationships, who suspect that their husband is having an affair elsewhere. Sanki husband, who has trouble with the fact that his wife is always busy on mobile or talking to someone on Whats App. Troubled father for the marriage of his children, who want to find out whether he is the right boy by spying on his potential son-in-law.Corporate companies also spy on their employees whether they are working for another company. Girlfriends are spying on their boyfriends, boyfriends are spying on their girlfriends. All these people are our clients due to shake-shabaha.

"It is not enough to live; you have to have something to live for."
- Commander Adama, Battlestar Galactica (television program) (2003)
Life is not reflected well in science fiction television programs. Yet they often show excellent examples of human aspirations, foibles and life lessons.
In this case, the life lesson is about having something worth living for. But, what?
Many people fail to find what they want out of life. They die still wondering what they could have done to find it.
The problem is that they had been looking for something that would come to them, something that would enhance their lives, something they could acquire that would make their life complete. That never satisfies the desire to find what life is worth lviing for because we humans can never find enough to satiate our desires. We are, by nature, greedy.
By deduction, what makes life worth living must be outside of us. What makes life worth living is not what we can get, but what we can give.
Being greedy, many people never learn that lesson. The laws of economics say that you can't get more by giving away what you have.
But the laws of economics suck. They have destroyed more lives than wars have. According to economics, the only things worth having are what comes in to us, what we can acquire. Because of our greedy natures, if we style our lives around what comes in to us, we will never be satisfied and feel that our lives have been worth living.
Those people who give the most of themselves to help others know what fulfillment is.That's not just feeding the hungry, healing the sick, giving money to the poor or sending blankets to Kosovo. It's helping anyone who needs help with anything.
People are often free about telling others their problems, whether the others want to hear them or not. Sometimes we can offer to help them. Anyone standing by a vehicle at the side of the road needs help, or at least some company, maybe a sandwich or coffee.
Sometimes helping someone else means nothing more than helping them to cry, to grieve, to let out the emotion that is eating them from the inside. Sometimes all we have to do is to listen.
If you want to know what makes life worth living, help someone. Do it more than once because the first time you may not recognize within you the feeling of having done something good and right. The more often you do it, the more it will seem the natural thing to do.
The laws of economics may be natural, but so are tsunamis and earthquakes. If it really matters to you to understand what makes life wonderful, give of yourself to help others.
Until and unless you have tried it, you won't understand. I don't understand economics, tsunamis or earthquakes. You can teach me once you have learned the lesson I have to teach.

I wake up at 7. I slept pretty well, save for the noisy neighbors who woke me up a time or two and the very crazy dreams I was having. One involved renting a beach house in Maine for the summer but all I could afford was a house on a sheer cliff that I had to scramble down in the morning to get to the ocean. Upon arriving at the ocean I realized the entire thing had turned pink. End of the day and scramble straight up, back to the house to take a shower in what can only be described as an adult sized dishwasher. Soap dispenser in the floor, jets spraying you from all angles. I get out of bed, make myself an iced coffee, then plop back into bed, propped up on many pillows with my book. Now I'm into ways to pitch people. Lots of good ideas here. Perhaps I might turn into a salesman after all. At nearly 9, I wander into the kitchen and start making. Ciabatta dough mixed up. Two sets of buttermilk biscuits, one straight into the freezer and the other topped with raw sugar and baked off for shortcakes. A giant batch of lentils and a tray of roasted broccoli get made too. I'm about to start in on the ironing of all the quilt top seams when I get a phone call. A much better offer! Plans made for lunch and a movie. I have an hour to get myself presentable. Yes, on Sunday mornings I prefer to not get dressed until I absolutely have to. Seeing other people means I absolutely have to. He picks me up a little after noon and we head to Acapulco's. It's been too long since I've been here. We have a great lunch, chattering back and forth, family, religion, life. There is time to kill until the movie so he takes me to walk a nearby rail trail. It's gorgeous. I had no idea. I should come here more often to walk rather than risking my life running across my heavily trafficked street. We waste 90 minutes of time in the most lovely way, sharing more good conversation and fresh air. Over to the movie. Star Trek. I warn him it will never be as good as Iron Man 3 but I'm willing to give it a try. I have to say it is surprisingly good considering I actually know nothing about the whole series, TV or movie. There are some good life lessons in there. Back to my house, after a brief detour where he nearly drives me to his work. A game of Scrabble is played. I win. Then strawberry shortcakes are consumed while watching John v Jimmy lip sync off, then history of rap part 1. It is then another round of Scrabble. I think I win again. Good nights are said. I hope he doesn't sob in his car after losing two Scrabble games. Oh no. Tomorrow is Monday.
this was really an adorable moment at the grossology exhibit...a dad teaching his son the joys of faux flatulence. i wanted a shot of his face at blast-off but it would have felt too intrusive.

Olive,
There are so many things to teach you. Sometimes I feel like every day and every moment is a chance for a life lesson. Lately, the pressure to turn you into a perfect little person has been suffocating and we haven’t had much fun.
After feeling, once again, locked in a power struggle with you, I took some time to really reflect on what I’ve been doing and why I’ve been doing it. It was hard to shine a harsh light on the truth but it was needed. Mommies make mistakes, too.
My most important job, Olive, is to help you stay confident, assertive, creative and independent. Now is not the time to make you sit still, always say please and thank you or force you to fit the mold of what society thinks makes a good little girl.
When I approached one of your teachers for advice, she asked me whether I was making a decision based on what was better for you or what would make me look better as a parent. I am so grateful for the coaching your school provides because being told that was like being doused in cold water.
Her saying those words, words that I have said and reminded myself of many times in the last two year, was the touchstone response that I needed.
I let a few comments said behind my back sway the parental path I was on. And I’m sorry that I doubted the child you’re becoming. We’ve haven’t had the easiest month and I felt especially vulnerable to criticism. It’s been cold and snowy and we’ve had to miss a lot of school. Your molars are coming in and you are in a lot of obvious pain.
With each major leap you make, I find myself doubting how I parent. Some of this is because of the way you make leaps. Your leaps are huge and fast. You leave me behind in the dust and scrambling to catch up. And even though I’ve been anticipating them, I still find myself caught off guard by the changes. You learning to talk was not different. It’s not that you couldn’t talk before, it’s just that now you can express your opinion so precisely and synthesize information so much better.
Every interaction became a teachable moment. I felt this enormous pressure to get it right. To explain it perfectly.
We’ve always done things a little differently and you’ve thrived in that environment. I promise that we’re back on track and that I’ll give you the empathy that you need to get through the tough times.
…
I wrote this a few weeks ago and the changes in you and to our relationship are tangible. I let go of what other people thought of us and returned to how I normally parent you and the results were instantaneous. It helps, also, that your molar has broken through and you are much more of the laid back, compliant child I’m used to.
I’ve started apologizing to you for the minor transgressions that make up our week. I’ll tell you that I should have let you explore longer and not rushed us to lunch. Or that I should have been more patient with you when you were having a hard time. I hope that hearing me apologize makes you quicker to assume responsibility in the future and more sympathetic to what other people are going through.
I still feel like there are too many things in a day to teach you but I realize that not every one of those lessons will be delivered through my actions or my lectures. So, Olive, I’m giving you permission to run about, ask me to pick you up and touch disgusting things on the ground. Go ahead and make mistakes, test your boundaries a bit and see how mommy reacts. Sometimes I’ll surprise you by giving you the nod and smile that tells you it’s okay to keep exploring and sometimes we’ll take a moment to talk something through and define a boundary. Either way I want you to feel safe and loved and for you to know I’m always proud that you’re my daughter.

This is his first Kiwi Crate project, a Polar Bear catching game! He made his own polar bear paws and ears and covered a small ball with velcro so it sticks to the paws when he catches it! He did most of it by himself and he's so proud.
This shot was only possible due to a number of people:
Olivier Bareau, who Skyped an impromptu tutorial on the function of the Match Colour function on Photoshop.
Tony3 who helped me realise how to open more than one photo in Photoshop and work with them as layers
Balakov who came up with the Lego Son of Man concept.
It's life Jim.... who helped to inspire this shot with his appreciation of the quote in the first place :)

Peter has lived throughout New England, but for decades, he has called Cambridge, just north of Boston, his home. His house, on a corner and surrounded by an ornately and completely painted fence, is covered with words of wisdom, warning, and truth, as is the fence. After speaking with Peter for several minutes, he produced a handful of pamphlets filled with interesting, unconventional life lessons and personal dogmas. I will admit that understanding some of the deeper meanings of his writings was difficult for me, but I was grateful nonetheless for having met and talked to such an intriguing and thought-invoking person.

Life lesson chapter 2: #33
This is about my favorite picture of the whole trip. The whaling captain had brought his nephew. He wanted him to learn about modern technology, he wanted him to know and understand the people who were regulating whaling. He wanted him to carry on the tradition of Inuit whaling because he believed it was necessary to preserve his culture. A lot of weight on this serious young man's shoulders.
By this time my preconcieved environmentalist notions were in a jumble. When I came, fishermen and whalers were the "enemy" and the NOAA scientists knights in shining armor.
I had gained enormous respect for what the fishermen knew, for their love of the sea that kept bringing them out here. And even the crew had to acknowledge how much more the Inuit saw and understood about this environment (they had started out pretty racist). The scientist were open and curious as a group, but arrogance kept creeping in and interfereing with their ability to understand.
I wish I had composed this picture better... got more of the seagull and less of the deck. But I felt I was intruding on a very private and intense moment for this young man... snapped the picture and snuck back into the cabin.

Keira Knightley 真的好美好美
那種氣質令人目不轉睛
四位男女主角幾乎沒有同台的片段
影片讓男女主角各自有疑似出軌的情境，彼此所遭遇的對象與情境也大不同
對於出軌或是外遇
這樣人性的考驗，其實建構在愛的本質和信任
我們都被傷過，也傷過深愛過的人...
清楚地知道，那樣的一道裂痕，很難復原
影片採用對比手法呈現男性與女性在面臨有可能出軌的時候處理方式
肉體與心靈的出軌
很難斷定
Life lessons learned:
* 一邊說著謊，一邊說著我愛你，那個愛有幾分真？
*男人跟女人都意識到了彼此對精神或身體出軌認知的不同，也認為這是值得討論的，而如果沒有從多面向去了解，或者不是處在當事人的立場下，誰都沒有資格去定義背叛或是指責誰
*「空間並非填充物體的容器，而是人類意識的居所。」-Gaston Bachelard:La Poétique de l'espace
Happy Birthday to Me! These are my entry for IC:E Herbs and one of the cupcake varieties I will be feasting on at my 40th birthday bash today. They are lemon verbena cupcakes studded with poppy seeds and garnished with a lavender vanilla bean cream cheese frosting.
Recipe on my blog, and some life lessons as I enter a new decade. Gulp!
It may not seem the right thing to do but using a child’s birthday as a lesson about giving back, not receiving is actually a great idea. This is just what Leah did when her daughter turned two. Since she was her second child, Leah decided time was enough for looking for baby birthday party places and toys. More at: wannabees.com.au/valuable-life-lessons-childrens-party/
We are celebrating Dr. Seuss' Bday at the school I work for. At first I, took this photo to prove to my son that I actually was able to draw the Sneetches from the cover of the book. But this is one of Dr. Seuss' many profound stories. I've been reading it to my kindergarten class because for the entire year there has been talk of who's white, who is brown and even some comments about religion. I am certain that these children are hearing comments at home and repeating them in school. It's sad because one of my students is from India and he keeps telling his parents that he wants to have white parents instead of brown. He wants to be white. I have children telling him we're white and you're brown. My heart breaks.
I picked out the Sneetches for my class, hoping that they would understand the lesson the book has to offer. The children love this book. They don't think it's fair that the Sneetches with stars treat the Sneetches without stars upon thars in an awful, mean way. They love that the all the Sneetches became friends in the end because they couldn't tell each other apart any more. I'm hoping this book has helped. Thank you Dr. Seuss for all of your wonderful life lessons!
