The newest addition to my neighborhood... a stupid stupid tag in ten foot letters. I swear, I'm going to go all vigilante and start beating the people that do this. I want all the crack dealers and graffiti kids out of my neighborhood and back in Minneapolis, where they belong.

Banyak koran seperti ini yang tidak disimpan sebagaimana mestinya. Seharusnya pengelola perpustakaan bisa memberi akses yang lebih mudah kepada pengunjungnya dalam membaca koran-koran lama, dan sebagai penggemar barang-barang lama, hal ini memudahkan saya membuka hal-hal (berita, iklan dan lain sebagainya) yang selama ini luput dari dunia maya - atau pemegang hak cipta aslinya ga tahu menahu dengan koleksi yang mereka terbitkan di sana (buat Kompas, jual lah foto-fotomu seperti Gettyimages, jangan kayak Tempo yang jual fotonya, harganya selangit).

 

Pemda Bali harus diperhatikan pengembangan sarana di Perpusda berusia 24 tahun ini.

 

(Sorry, I don't give English description as this is my rant on Indonesian library).

I contacted the webmaster of FavorIdeas (dot) com about my problem with them using my copyritten photos/content on their site with out permission and they refused to take them down, and even called me ridiculous for suggestion such.

 

I wouldn't even care if they just asked permission, and/or gave credit, are the main things, but they still refuse to or just take them down.

 

Also, Anthony Sava's stuff is on here as well. (FYI, Tony!)

Empty places turned inside out:

 

At Katendrecht whole rows of houses are awaiting renovation and have been boarded up thoroughly. But posters, with pictures of their insides, have been attached to the windows. Slowly the posters are deteriorating and the whole setup has a very conceptual look-and-feel.

 

From Chuck Palahniuk's book "Rant".

(version française ici)

 

"Ugh... I look ugly !"

It happens almost every time

And the response is almost invariably

"What ??? Not at all ! You're wrong ! You look beautiful"

Then it comes back, as invariably

"No... I'm not. I'm ugly."

  

I don't know how many variations of this dialogue I have heard

For more than 25 years now

 

It's wearing me out

  

Two people look at pictures of themselves

One of them makes a very negative comment

not about the picture

they always insist it's not about the picture itself

it's about themselves

It's about that thing in themselves that they don't like

the shape of their nose

their smile that looks stupid

that their hair looks too curly

or too straight

that their arm is too fat

that their legs look too short

this darker spot in their eyes

their teeth which are too dark

that ... whatever

you name it

anything goes for this purpose

 

"The picture is fine ...

it's just me..."

 

They know exactly what they don't like in themselves

they know it without having to look at the picture

the picture is just an additional proof they can point at

an additional element they can add to the scale, to make it tilt a little more toward the side they have long chosen

They point at that thing in them that

they know it

other people will not like

that makes them deviate from some ideal

that they have to be

they know it

to be liked by others

 

They know it

for sure

it's obvious

they can see the thoughts in the mind of others

focusing on that oh-so-imperfect part of themselves

and turning away

rejecting them

 

Except of course

no one

but themselves

finds this supposedly imperfect thing to be a motive for rejection

Especially not the person sitting aside

and who came to be photographed along

"What ??? no... you're just beautiful here... "

Like clockwork.

 

You might want to believe that they were looking for reassurance,

that even though they are imperfect, they will still be liked

appreciated, loved...

But in more than twenty five years of witnessing this happening

I've seen every single reassurance attempt crash and burn.

No one accepts them. Ever.

"No... I'm ugly"

Such a nicely tuned clockwork.

 

"I'm telling you, you're beautiful !"

"No, I'm not"

...

...

A freakishly precise clockwork.

  

And most of what others say as a response

is not even a reassurance attempt, really

They do find them beautiful

you can hear it in their voice

in their intonation

they are sincere

  

And each time that "no, I'm not beautiful" comes back

... I can feel it

it's a rejection of what we have in our heart

when we say that you're beautiful

and we feel it

it's a little more distance added between us

it's an occation to get closer

that is pushed back

 

of course this is not how you see it when you say that

you really believe that you're not beautiful

you really believe that we think that what you perceive as an imperfection will push us away

you're as sincere

 

but it's a sincerity

that is based on having your eyes closed

except on this supposed defect of yours

a sincerity that thrives on ignoring everything that we see when we look at you and we see you whole

 

still, it feels like honest sincerity to you

doesn't it ?

 

So I could try to reassure you

and the person sitting next to you could try to reassure you

and it will not work

and you will cling on that defect of yours

and maintain that you're ugly.

 

It's as if this defect had become your own definition or yourself

something you spent so much time and energy absorbing

until you believed that it is the reason that you could not be liked

loved

that you can't let it go

 

and just listen

to what we say

"you're beautiful"

 

And each time that

"No, I'm not"

comes back

 

I can feel it

I can feel it in the person sitting next to you

I can feel it in myself

 

it's like a piece of the world that's been chipped away

it's like a place where we can't go anymore

it's like a shrinking of the world

a reduction of freedom

 

That "you're beautiful" was an offer to expand the world

and that "no I'm not" shrunk it instead

 

I can feel the pain

in the person sitting next to me

hitting that wall

I can feel that tought

"... but it would be so much better if you could accept how beautiful you are ..."

going though their mind

  

And then we display the next picture

and it's a picture of that other person

And then it goes

"Ugh ... and you thought you were ugly ??? Ha ... look how ugly I am !"

 

"But no ... not at all ... you are beautiful on this ... not like me before"

 

More precise than clockwork.

  

----

  

Time after time

I heard it

and time after time

I felt the space around me disappearing

piece by piece

one "I'm ugly" at a time

 

Counless times

   

It's wearing me out

more and more

to accept reduced views of the world

and of humans

shrunked spaces

  

I don't know what to do

I don't know if there's even anything to do

 

I'll never stop sensing that beauty looking at you

The person sitting next to you will always feel it either

 

Until maybe there's too much distance created

Until maybe there's no space left to move at all

Until I can't breathe anymore at all

  

What can I do ?

Really ?

Telling you will not change that ...

 

Slapping you in the face until you stop saying you're ugly may get you to stop saying it. From sheer fear.

And you would still believe it.

 

Stopping listening to you would only create more distance.

 

Telling you

"oh you're absolutely right, you really are ugly"

would just be trying to validate a lie with a bigger one

 

Telling you

"you're just stupid to believe this about yourself"

would just be a verbal equivalent to a slapping

and it would validate that other lie you want cling so much to about yourself ...

 

Getting you to look at more of you than what makes you specifically different from a supposedly perfect standard ?

Expanding the universe around you ?

Sure ... that might work

 

But how could I get you to even consider looking at it, at who you fully are ?

Seeing the pictures will not do it ...

Hearing that you're beautiful will not do it ...

 

And we can't force anyone to look, can we ?

We can't force anyone to let go

 

What kind of catastrophe will be required ?

Do I want to be such a catastrophe ?

  

So

in the end

all I can do it keep telling you how beautiful you look

all I can do is keep making pictures of you

all I can do is keep hearing you telling me how not beautiful you are

and

all I can do is to keep creating a little more space

faster and with more energy than what is taken away

 

all I can do is to keep breathing while

there is space left

and enjoy it

Rant: I *hate* these type of rubons and tapes. I *always* manage to ruin them. Whenever I watch scrapbooking tutorials, everyone is always making nice strokes of glue/ rubons. With me, the whole tape just goes berserk and I have to throw it away! Anyone else had similar experience?

This man had got permission to walk around hotel's beach and offer camel rides for visitors (for a fee of course).

Lt. Col. Kevin J. Rants, center, receives the colors of the 407th Army Field Support Battalion from Col. Danny F. Tilzey, left, commander, 407th Army Field Support Brigade, Fort Hood, Texas, during a July 20 change of command at Manhart Field. Rants assumed command of the 407th AFSB during the ceremony, replacing Lt. Col. Andrew D. Centineo, right. Rants’ most recent assignment was with the U.S. Southern Command in Miami. Centineo’s next assignment is in the logistics section of the Office of the Army Surgeon General in Falls Church, Va.

 

Ah yes, I have always wanted a place where I can Rest an' Rant while doing something with curry. Or Maybe the curry rests an' I rant...Or is it...nevermind. Also note that the blue letters seem to spell "Artmafat"...which has no meaning as far as I can tell but sounds darn funny when you say Rest and Rant Artmafat. lol...simple minds...

the picture above was from ocean up and the question was about "Niley" and the most % was they will NEVER GET BACK TOGETHER, now i don't know if that is TRUE, but...

  

IF the rumors of the Nelena break up are TRUE then stop bomb barding Nick will tweets saying he should be with Miley, IF he broke up with Selena i HARDLY DOUBT he would get a girl. and MILEY's GOT LIAM UNDERSTAND and i don't care if you think their PR, she looks and seems happy with him so i won't go into it.

 

IF any couple was PR it would be "Miam" they're doing a movie together to sell it, it MAKES SENSE but i am NOT saying that.

 

all of you whether you're Niley, Nelena or Nemi (Nourthey too i guess?) who EVER Nick ends up with you should be HAPPY for him and i am not talking about RIGHT NOW, i mean when he finds the "ONE" i am not saying he hasn't but i HARDLY doubt he would go back to some one he was with at 14 and 16? right? Goes for Joe aswell. i mean Kevin is only the "Happy" one right now. -.-

 

JUST think about that.

 

GOODBYE. :)

Gamification is the education topic du jour. With new game-based learning environments being touted as a solution to all the problems of the modern classroom, we urge the G4C community to question trends before investing in them. Provocative voices from diverse sides of the gaming-for-learning industry rant against the idea that any of the models already in use are particularly effective applications of video games in the classroom. Attendees may get puzzled or confused, or simply take away a new lens for looking at gamifying schools (or schoolifying games).

a rant... just a little one.

 

part of me likes all those social websites, part of me hates them. i'm stuck in a vortex of random useless information heading towards the overkill. everything and everybody, including myself, craves and wants attention nowadays, it's hard to find the useful and meaningful in between all the info which is being shotgunned at me.

 

and then if you want to advertise today you just resort to using everything: there's the twitter account, the facebook account, the friendfeed, the flickr, your own online portfolio, a blog, maybe some traditional print media (newpaper ad, flyer, yellow pages, brochures...), some youtube-making of clips and tutorials... (did i forget anything?) ugh, sometimes it's just too much for me and at the moment i don't feel like doing any photography at all. maybe i'm just in a need for a break. on hols tomorrow, time to recharge those poor batteries...

 

facebook lite seems to be at least an improvement on that behalf...

 

UPDATE: Don't get me wrong, I just love all this shit!
