Mrs. (Loree) Murray, who died March 27 (2009) at 88 of pancreatic cancer, founded the Near Northeast Citizens Against Crime and Drugs to lead street patrols that helped police document evidence of drug dealing. She was joined by a handful of other men and women, including a 105-year-old who had once worked for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
"She was one of the first people who decided to take back her community, and to do that, she had to break up some of the most notorious drug rings operating at Second and K streets Northeast," said developer Ronald J. Cohen, who worked with Mrs. Murray to win community support for a building project on land that had once been a haven for vice.
He said Mrs. Murray no longer wanted her neighborhood to be seen as "the other side of the tracks."
Cohen said he plans to name a building in her honor. The "Loree Grand" will be part of the Union Place residential-retail complex, scheduled to open next spring at 200 K St. NE.

Guilty as charged!
Right in front of my nose, huge buildings, occupied by hundreds of families.
Downtown San Paulo, Brazil.
Few blocks from the City Hall, the Stock Exchange, the Central Bank among so many other fundamental, worthy and basic institutions.
In just one of the buildings, 475 families occupies 27 unfinished floors.
Kids play and run.
Clotheslines on the outside of the building, without any protection from falling down and in front of the entire city.
Windows, with breathtaking views, of one of the biggest and most populated cities on the Planet, made of compensated wood or sticks, even at the 27th floor.
People that use strength and organization to impose their reality, to a society that doesn’t care to listen.
Guilty as charged!

This is an outtake from a shoot Scott & I did at a client's office in Foster City yesterday. I can't show you many others due to copyright concerns & because the project is not done yet--hopefully someday though!
Super Panavision (2.39:1) crop of a shot I took from the ferry, heading back into Yangon after a long day of shooting. Shot back in March. I was there for two weeks shooting on a Japanese movie.
A collection of behind-the-scenes shots from the movie, here:

We were enjoying my friend's dad's sky box tickets for the Wizards vs. Celtics game this weekend. Neither team seemed to want to win, and nobody in the stadium seemed to care much about the contest. Everybody was glued to the TV to see the result of the Redskins game.
And then, the door opened. Where there is usually a silhoutte and a backlight, there was total darkness. A shadow crouched and emerged from the door frame, it was something much larger than the door. A smile illuminated the room like a new gibbous. It was a familiar face from the Transylvanian region of Romania.
Gheorghe Muresan!!!
I jumped out of my chair. Whenever Gheorghe used to appear on TV during the mid-90's, I was transfixed. A man like this makes reality into a fantasy world. He makes mortals experience the life of Lilliputians. And he has always had a sense of humor about it all (think: ESPN commercials, Snickers, agreeing to appear with Billy Crystal in a bad movie).
I told him I've been scouring ebay for the past 6 years for one of his jerseys. I asked him to tell the Wizards management to start selling Muresan retro Bullets jerseys. He smiled and laughed and gave me high-five.
Spudd Webb, if you're reading this, let's hang out sometime soon.
"They have deserved a better life, but I constantly have the feeling that, no matter how much I do, I let them down. It's a tragedy." Antonia is providing psychosocial support for refugees in Eleonas camp, Athens, with her NGO "The Smile of the child". Due to constant shortage of funding and change of official plans concerning the treatment if refugees, a lot of NGO-employees in Greece are on the verge of a burn-out.
