Does not Star

For My 🫂 🥼

That was almost the Finalé of the "Fishhook From My I"

I started with that Fraudster Vance Men's Group Psychologist in Oakland

Trying to save my Parent's Marriage became that One. Duh is also th last yuck and then it just does away, like the Stomach Flue you don't remember having had every summer again.

They really want them CoCo Caxxed before this Rape, was the other Intel th Enemy gave me.

The place you make your Avatar in The Military, is almost where you go to watch you and the patient or class.

I just Finished using that to write our Good Story.

Anyway, "Dr. House Was Fine"

Back to my wargames that's the Hour

I hope it was worth a decent Rollings Steins ticket at least. The Drugs I Suggested, Email Me Back If You think it's a good strategy. The Book and Film list isn't an insult to British intelligence.

Oh My Wargames? Well this one is me meanly writing about The Clone Matrix Saga, which Consider Canon

Again to the Detriment of the Enemy's not getting The Matrix as a basic concept yet.

Eventually I say As Real Neo Possessing this Coppertop being made to think it's even Original Clone Neo, who doesn't say that, thinks it's reductive and Mean. "The Waiting Free" or "The Sleeping" gives it a non Anti-Buddhist flair

Sorry I'll get to the IT.

Eventually like in that Agent Smith as his Daddy IRL he learned, the Actor, And Morpheus Rescue Scene

That's The MAPS one that is occurring further Litigation for mean people and my ExWife.

They All Eventually become the Squally lines on the Left

Despite like their Bursting into Flames Things covered by the literal Girl Form Hereditary, Parks and Rec and Hey don't eat my Cornuts B Word.

That's a lot of Money and Drugs onto even the most unfit basic Bagel

Your Leader feeding you won't some day child.

They have Magic tricks that harm you that Taylor means when she sings "Crisis"

Their Prisons and Psychiatric Facilities are the Product, not the People working in them.

They can only shove food in mouths and be violent as they knew as children

The London Stock Exchange raise billions of pounds for the apartheid state of Israel and actively boast about their support for Israeli businesses.

The exchange also trades shares in weapons manufacturers who arm Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people. 🧵

Whilst Palestinians are being massacred and remain brutally colonised by a regime which Britain backs, it is crucial that we disrupt every mechanism that enables their oppression.

Palestine Action has consistently taken direct action against the Israeli weapons trade.

We are unafraid of putting our liberty on the line in order to bring down Israeli weapons manufacturers and those who facilitate them.

If you want to join the fight, join us at http://bit.ly/JoinResist

BREAKING: Several actionists were arrested for allegedly conspiring to shut down the London Stock Exchange, who raise billions of pounds for apartheid Israel.

They were infiltrated by an undercover journalist, but the campaign to end Israel's weapons trade remains undeterred!

Daily Express journalist @MaxParry4 accepted a 2024 mentorship from the @JSchofieldTrust

then turned police informer on people trying to stop a genocide. 6 human rights activists arrested. https://express.co.uk/news/uk/1855620/Palestine-protest-arrest-London-Stock-Exchange 1/

@JSchofieldTrust mentors young journalists to honour the memory of John Schofield, killed aged 29, while reporting on the civil war in Yugoslavia for BBC Radio 4’s The World Tonight. 2/

'Six people who were believed to be plotting to cause economic chaos on Monday have been arrested thanks to information passed on by@MaxParry4 for @Daily_Express ' 3/

Meanwhile, in Gaza, Israel has murdered another journalist. So in 100 days, that's 119 journos & crew murdered, often in targeted killings, some with their entire families. 4/

Five of the six activists arrested for allegedly conspiring to disrupt the London Stock Exchange have been released.

One was charged and will appear at court to apply for bail shortly.

Modern Shakespeare - Why Change Has Much Ado About Everything

Modern Shakespeare – Why Change Has Much Ado About Everything

About The HRIS World® Transformational Leadership Series™ Shakespeare and Much Ado About Nothing is more like Much Ado About Everything… Our lives, if we stand back long enough, are comedies that, like Shakespeare’s play, combines elements of mistaken identities, love, robust hilarity with more serious meditations found on honour, shame, and court politics. Yet nothing seems no longer irrelevant…

Just want to add that yesterday a fan claimed that SH went to #1 in the US because of Niall’s constant promo. Nothing could be further from the truth. He had 3 TV performances in the 3 weeks after it dropped in May and then nothing until September except some local radio things. That song went to #1 because Capitol radio team did all the work. We wanted real promo so badly to go top 10, and there had been nothing for months. For the 3 months of the summer of 2017, SH only moved because of radio.

sorry, but that is absolutely, demonstrably not true??? here’s a summary of how promo for that song went:

- the song dropped on thurs may 4. he spent release day and the friday after doing phone ins, twitter q&a's, and other bits of promo

- over the next week, a slow trickle of interviews from around the world were released

- fri may 12 was his first radio show where he played OTL for the first time

- sat may 13 was wango tango, which was broadcast live online

- mon may 15, the slow hands lyric video was released and he officially started the promo push at stations in and around LA, which continued over the next few days

- wed may 17, he filmed ellen, which aired the following day

- thurs may 18, he started 2 weeks of traveling across the country doing radio shows, appearances at stations, live performances, and q&a's for local fans (a few of which were also broadcast online). that included stops in chicago, minneapolis, las vegas, nashville, baltimore, DC, NYC, and boston

- in the midst of that, thurs may 25, his billboard feature was released and he filmed an appearance the tonight show to air that night, and then mon may 29, he performed on the today show

- after finishing the US push on may 31, he immediately went back to the UK to begin the international push

- thurs june 1, niall's tmrw magazine cover was announced

- sun june 4, he performed at ari's one love manchester concert, which was live-streamed around the world

- mon june 5, he appeared and performed on BBC's the one show

- wed june 7, he had a press junket day for outlets in the UK & ireland, which were released over the following days and weeks

- thurs june 8, his first ever solo live lounge

- sat june 10, performed at capital's summertime ball

- sun june 11, his notion magazine cover was announced

- over the next week, he did promo and appearances around europe, particularly in germany and sweden

- fri june 16, he was back in london to perform at the 500 words final, which was broadcast live on bbcr2

- from there, he went straight to canada for his MMVAs performance on sun june 18, then spent a day or two doing promo and appearances around toronto

- he had a few days off before going back to the US for a few more radio shows over the next weekend (june 23-25) in indianapolis, chicago, and detroit

- it was almost a full week before he showed back up in australia on thurs june 29 and spent two days doing tons of radio appearances, tv appearances, performances, all leading up to his performance on the voice au on sun july 2

- tues july 4, he went over to japan, then did a junket the next day

- then he went to singapore and did more promo, including a junket for southeast asian countries and a performance / q&a for fans on fri july 7

- after that he went back to the UK for some time off, but the flicker sessions tour was announced on mon july 10 and there was a fairly constant stream of backlogged promo still being released

- sun july 16, he performed on the voice kids uk (i'm pretty sure it was the finale, but don't quote me on that)

- again he disappeared for a while, took some time off, and—at least as far as i remember—didn't resurface again (at least on the music side) until just before the flicker sessions tour was about to start

and then again with that, if you'll remember, for the first half of the tour leading up to the album release date, they had a system where he'd do the show that night, then the next day was a press junket in that city, then they'd travel to the next place. so during that time, he was able to do even MORE promo in ireland, the UK, europe, australia, japan, etc, and eventually making his way back to the US for more promo and to the iheart radio festival in vegas on sun sept 23, which is where he was when he was officially announced as #1 on the top 40 charts, which was followed by peaking on the hot 100 at #11 that week.

when you look at that, how the fuck can you say that he didn’t do anything??? even if you take away the international promo, which i think would be a huge disservice to him and the amount of work he put in to push that single, there was still a good month there where he was busting his ass traveling across the US and building goodwill with different radio stations and outlets???? and i don’t think it mATTERS if radio was the primary driving force behind the song in the charts, that’s in no way a knock to it or the success it achieved in my eyes, cause at the end of the day, it still got to where it was off the back of the work that HE put into it. maybe there’s more that could have been done to push it into the hot 100 top 10, but maybe there wasn’t, who really knows at this point. for me, the most important thing is just recognizing the amount of work that he DID put into it and the fact that he wasn’t just sitting on his ass waiting for it to happen or going MIA for days or weeks at a time. that alone makes the success it DID achieve something worth being proud of, even if it wasn’t quite to the level that he or we may have wanted it to get yk??

Diego Maradona: Obituary - Argentina's flawed football icon

Dazzling, infamous, extraordinary, genius, outrageous. Diego Maradona. A flawed football icon.

One of the game's most gifted players, the Argentine boasted a rare combination of flair, flamboyance, vision and speed which mesmerised fans.

He also outraged supporters with his controversial 'Hand of God' goal and plunged into a mire of drug abuse and personal crises off the pitch.

Short and sweet - The football genius Born 60 years ago in a Buenos Aires shanty town, Diego Armando Maradona escaped the poverty of his youth to become a football superstar considered by some to be even greater than Brazil's Pele.

The Argentine, who scored 259 goals in 491 matches, pipped his South American rival in a poll to determine the greatest player of the 20th Century, before Fifa changed the voting rules so both players were honoured.

Site: https://rwandaartsinitiative.com/community/profile/full-watch-tenet-2020-movie/

Maradona showed prodigious ability from a young age, leading Los Cebollitas youth team to a 136-game unbeaten streak and going on to make his international debut aged just 16 years and 120 days.

Short and stocky, at just 5ft 5in, he was not your typical athlete.

But his silky skills, agility, vision, ball control, dribbling and passing more than compensated for lack of pace and occasional weight problems.

He may have been a whizz at running rings round hostile defenders but he found it harder to dodge trouble.

Hand of God & Goal of the Century

Maradona's 34 goals in 91 appearances for Argentina tell only part of the story of his rollercoaster international career.

He led his country to victory at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico and a place in the final four years later.

In the quarter-final of the earlier tournament, there was a foretaste of the controversy that would later engulf his life.

Site: https://rwandaartsinitiative.com/community/profile/full-watch-after-we-collided-2/

The match against England already had an extra friction, with the Falklands War between the two countries having taken place only four years beforehand. That on-field edge was to become even more intense.

With 51 minutes gone and the game goalless, Maradona jumped with opposing goalkeeper Peter Shilton and scored by punching the ball into the net.

He later said the goal came thanks to "a little with the head of Maradona and a little with the hand of God".

Site: https://rwandaartsinitiative.com/community/profile/full-watch-come-play-2020/

Four minutes later, he scored what has been described as the 'goal of the century' - collecting the ball in his own half before embarking on a bewitching, mazy run that left several players trailing before he rounded Shilton to score.

The first goal was dubious; the second was a bloody miracle Former England manager Sir Bobby Robson "You have to say that is magnificent. There is no doubt about that goal. That was just pure football genius," said BBC commentator Barry Davies.

England pulled one back but Argentina went through, with Maradona saying it was "much more than winning a match, it was about knocking out the English".

A hero for Napoli - but drugs take hold Maradona broke the world transfer record twice - leaving Boca Juniors in his home country for Spanish side Barcelona for £3m in 1982 and joining Italian club Napoli two years later for £5m.

There were more than 80,000 fans in the Stadio San Paolo when he arrived by helicopter. A new hero.

He played the best club football of his career in Italy, feted by supporters as he inspired the side to their first league titles in 1987 and 1990 and the Uefa Cup in 1989.

A party to celebrate the first triumph lasted five days with hundreds of thousands on the streets, but Maradona was suffocated by the attention and expectation.

"This is a great city but I can hardly breathe. I want to be free to walk around. I'm a lad like any other," he said.

He became inextricably linked to the Camorra crime syndicate, dragged down by a cocaine addiction and embroiled in a paternity suit.

After losing 1-0 to Germany in the final of Italia 90, a positive dope test the following year triggered a 15-month ban.

He returned and arrested his slide, appearing to get his act together to play in the 1994 World Cup in the USA.

But he alarmed viewers with a maniacal full-face goal celebration into a camera and was withdrawn midway through the tournament after he was found to have taken the banned substance ephedrine.

Maradona timeline 1977: Debut for Argentina v Hungary 1984: Joins Napoli after two-year spell with Barcelona 1986: Wins World Cup with Argentina 1990: World Cup runner-up with Argentina. 1991: 15-month ban after positive drugs test Second league title at Napoli 1994: Plays in fourth World Cup but is ejected after positive test 1997: Retires from playing after third positive test 2010: Ends two-year spell as Argentina manager after World Cup quarter-final exit

Life after retirement After his third positive test three years later, he retired from football on his 37th birthday, but continued to be plagued by problems.

Maradona was given a suspended jail sentence of two years and 10 months for an earlier incident where he shot at journalists with an air rifle.

His cocaine habit and alcoholism led to several health issues. He put on weight, rising to 128kg (20 stone) at one point, and suffered a major heart attack in 2004, which left him in intensive care.

He had gastric-bypass surgery to help stem his obesity, and sought sanctuary in Cuba while battling to overcome his drug addiction.

Despite all this, Maradona was named manager of the Argentina national team in 2008 and took the side to the World Cup quarter-finals two years later before his reign ended with a 4-0 defeat by Germany in the quarter-finals.

Various managerial roles followed for a figure who continued to divide opinion, and continued to make headlines.

He needed reconstructive surgery on his lip after one of his pet shar pei dogs bit him, and publicly recognised his son Diego Armando Junior who was born from an extra-marital affair.

A snapshot of his chaotic lifestyle came when he attended Argentina's match against Nigeria at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

He unveiled a banner of himself, danced with a Nigeria fan, prayed to the heavens before the game, wildly celebrated Lionel Messi's opener, fell asleep and gave a double middle finger salute after Argentina's second goal.

Some reports suggested he needed medical treatment afterwards.

Disgraceful, inspired, entertaining, great, over the top. Diego Maradona. A life less ordinary.

Tonight's scheduled match between Sport Club Internacional and Boca Juniors has been postponed following the death of Diego Maradona.

The match will now take place in Porto Alegre on 2 December at 21:30 local time, with the second leg to follow on 9 December.

A funeral worker who took a photo next to the open coffin of Argentine football icon Diego Maradona has asked fans for forgiveness.

Claudio Fernández was pictured standing next to Maradona's body, alongside his son, who made a thumbs-up gesture. A third man appeared in his own photo.

Maradona died at his home in Tigre, near Buenos Aires, on Wednesday.

The images surfaced online as Maradona's body lay in repose at the presidential palace, provoking outrage.

The footballer's lawyer, Matías Morla, has vowed to take action against "the scoundrel" responsible for the photos.

Mr Fernandez told Radio 10 on Friday that the decision to take the photo was "something instantaneous".

The Sepelios Pinier funeral parlour said the three men were "outsourced employees" who had helped carry the coffin.

Manager of the parlour, Matías Picón, told the TN news channel that the company was "devastated" by the images.

He said his company had organised funeral services for other members of the Maradona family. "The family has total confidence in us, that's why we are so affected," he said.

"My father is 75 years old and he is crying, I am crying, my brother too, we are destroyed," Mr Picón added.

Swords, Sarcasm & Starlight, pt 4

Part 3 here

The burgers were insane, Darcy thought again as she and Geralt found a bench and sat down, digging in. He’d ordered a steak burger with everything on it, in her hands she held a classic burger with a bacon and maple syrup glaze that should have been illegal.

The noise of the fayre swirled and clamoured around them as they ate side by side. When Darcy had finished, she balled her wrapper in her palm. “Always the sign of a good food stand. When no one talks during the eating.”

“Hmm,” Geralt said, which Darcy took as agreement.

Plenty of women - and men - eyed Geralt in passing, and Darcy mulled over his previous words. No way there hadn’t been a queue of ready people of both genders just lining up to play She-Ra to his He Man. No fucking way.

Unless he was hiding a load of skeletons in his closet. It would just be her luck.

“So… how’d you get into the sword making business?” she asked, rolling the curled-up wrapper between her palms. 

Geralt finished his own burger and smoothed out the wrapper meticulously. Darcy had once read in Cosmo that men who did that were very attentive in bed. Her toes curled and she made herself look away from his hands. Get a grip, Darce.

“I’ve always had a knack for metalwork, stuff with my hands. I went to Blacksmith summer school as a teenager - seemed more fun than getting a summer job, and I loved it, loved the fire, the clang of metal, the sheer magic of creating something so solid.” He blinked, then shook his head slightly as if he’d gone to another world, and maybe he had. “And what about you, your art?”

Darcy stared out at the expanse of field around them. In the distance, a few guys on horseback held standards bearing family crests, real or fictional, it didn’t matter one bit somewhere like this. At a ren fayre it was impossible to tell real aristocrats from cosplayers, and that was just the way she liked it. “My parents used to listen to The Sky at Night on the BBC World Service when I was little,” she began, smiling at the memory of it. “Patrick Moore’s voice as he waxed lyrical about the stars was like a lullaby to me. I started drawing stars almost before I could properly write my own name.”

Geralt smiled, his lips curving at the left corner of his mouth first, and Darcy wondered how he’d taste, coffee and the sweetness of the relish in his burger… and what else? Warm, broad man? 

She shook the thought off. Just because his insanely gorgeous friend wanted to set him up, did not mean he wanted to be set up. Maybe, like Darcy, he had really had no motivation other than being really, really hungry.

“Hey, um…” Darcy stopped abruptly, suddenly uncharacteristically shy. “Are you going to that concert tonight? Jaskier and the Dandelions?”

“Maybe.” He met her gaze, his warm, his amber eyes dancing with mischief, and for a frozen moment Darcy was totally poleaxed by how gorgeous he was, pale hair fluttering in the sunshine, his broad shoulders filling out his tunic perfectly. “Are you asking me on a date?”

Nerves warred with pleasure in Darcy’s stomach. “If I was, would you say yes? If not, then, no, I am definitely only asking out of sheer curiosity about whether you can dance a medieval jig.”

Geralt laughed, the sound throaty and definitely more than a little bit sexy. “If you were asking me on a date, then theoretically, I would say yes.”

Darcy aimed at a nearby trash can - garbed ridiculously in papery medieval flag material (an actual bin was more attractive and handy than a cesspit after all) - and then tossed her balled up burger wrapper, scoring a perfect hit. “Then it’s a date.”

****

A few hours later, the stalls were starting to wrap up, and Darcy decided to drive to her (budget) hotel to freshen up before the concert later. The clock struck six p.m as she packed up her stuff, leaving only the faire-provided lockbox with the bare minimum inside it. She pulled the huge bag over her shoulder, thankful as she usually was at these gigs that canvas and paintbrushes weighed so little.

Yennefer stood on duty next door. Geralt had gone about a half hour ago, to settle Roach in the nearby stable, and, she assumed, to freshen up at his own hotel or tent. She couldn’t imagine him as a 300-threadcount sheet kind of guy, but you never knew.

He’d sent her a loaded smile as he’d prepared to leave, and a little frisson of excitement had skated down her spine. Maybe barbarians are my type after all.

“Have fun tonight,” Yennefer grinned as Darcy went to bid her goodbye. “I hear Jaskier’s brilliant. Very romantic.”

“As romantic as possible, I guess, given the amount of meat and, by that time, the amount of costumes and wigs that are askew.”

Yennefer laughed, startled, and then smiled warmly. “I do like you, Darcy. Try and loosen Geralt up a little, would you?”

My pleasure,  Darcy thought privately as she saluted the other woman and made her way to her little car, unharmed thanks to Geralt’s intervention earlier. A lot of the other cars had cleared out already, and she easily packed her things, winding the windows down and setting the radio on loud. She sang along with the Chainsmokers as she sped down the road, the sun beginning its slow descent into the horizon.

Darcy parked up, smiling absently at the other cars in the hotel lot with ren fayre stickers on the trunk and bumpers, along with roleplayer slogan stickers like I BRAKE FOR KOBOLDS and KEEP CALM AND LARP ON.

A group of ren fayre goers sat on the benches by the hotel entrance, smoking, one of them playing what looked like an actual lute, a feathered cap perched on his head and a parrot on his shoulder. Darcy grinned as she passed them. There was nothing quite like a ren fayre to bring out everything America had to offer.

At the desk, she dropped her bag on the floor and gave the clerk her details. It took a while. After five minutes, Darcy tried to lean over the high counter. “Is there a problem?”

The clerk bit her lip, tapping away at the keyboard nervously. “I’m sure it’s just some administrative error. I’ll get it sorted.”

Another five minutes passed. Quite the queue had formed behind her, and Darcy’s stomach growled. She leaned over again. “I’m sorry to put the pressure on, but, can you just tell me what’s up?”

The clerk met her gaze miserably. “I’m sorry ma’am, it seems like your room has been overbooked and it’s already occupied.”

“What? By who?” Darcy asked incredulously.

Modern Shakespeare - Why Change Has Much Ado About Everything

About The HRIS World Transformational Leadership Series™ #thwTLS

Leadership needs to change with change -- and yet still discern what and which principles should not be forsaken.

The HRIS World Transformational Leadership Series™ takes both a high-level as well as up-close look at what it takes to inspire commitment so to achieve the vision of a preferred future, the very definition of Transformational Leadership.

Hashtag for The HRIS World Transformational Leadership Series™ is #thwTLS

For more information about this series, eel free to reach out to us by clicking here for more information.

Shakespeare and Much Ado About Nothing is more like Much Ado About Everything…

Our lives, if we stand back long enough, are comedies that, like Shakespeare’s play, combines elements of mistaken identities, love, robust hilarity with more serious meditations found on honour, shame, and court politics.

Yet nothing seems no longer irrelevant and everything seems to be relevant to everyone…

We are busier, hopefully more productive, better organized, more knowledgeable, than any society before us thanks to technology.

Yet at the same time, we are less regulated in our personal behavior and in the use of our tongue.

We need to return to ground zero and see what needs to be rebuilt…

6 Pillars

Trustworthiness…

Respect…

Responsibility…

Fairness…

Caring…

Citizenship…

Character

Raising the bar of expectations has never resulted in lower quality of anything – yet for many leaders, that bar keeps slipping.

Not going to raise quality or even maintain it without raising the bar of expectations, are you?

Without establishing sound character, change is going to be more of a challenge without than with sound character…

Whose Voice Do You Listen To?

Whose voices you choose to listen to will decide – What you believe… – What doors will close on you… – What doors will open for you…

Facts and truth are irrelevant to any of the above.

Unavailable or Available to Learn?

You decide to when make yourself unavailable or available to learn – the facts and truth will sort themselves out as you keep yourself available to learn.

And not available at the levels you choose, but available at all levels.

Many times, if not most of the time, you will rely on information that makes you feel comfortable and not on information that challenges you – to assess your beliefs – to rethink your beliefs – to change your beliefs

That can cause you more problems, more missed opportunities, more closed doors than you really know.

The Only Thing That Doesn’t Change is Change

In 2010, Eric Schmidt announced that every 2 days we now create as much information as we did from the dawn of civilization up until 2003 [1]…

In 2013, knowledge was doubling every 12 months – with the build out of the IoT (Internet of Things), IBM has assessed that will change to every 12 hours [2]…

Yet…

Are you more productive since 2010? 2013? Or are you merely busier?

Busy? Or Productive?

Where have you really focused with all the latest gadgets you have at our disposal? Developing economic gain? Gaining more knowledge? Learning to think differently?

Or are you creating whirlpools of busy-ness that only sucks the life out of you while you abandon character? wisdom? learning? discernment?

Are you truly getting ahead with technology? Or is your technology getting ahead of you?

Most everyone knows Albert Einstein [3] – many of his thoughts and theories are still being proven, some nearly a CENTURY after came up with them, other thoughts of his are still in progress of being proven.

And he did all his thinking about the universe, physics, life… without a computer – as it hadn’t been invented yet… without a smartphone – as it hadn’t been invented yet…

Yes, he was gifted — which is exactly my point when combining technology, knowledge, discernment, even character…

We have the technology that can help us the way it couldn’t him…

The Ways and Means of Change

David D’Souza hits upon many of these points in his interview on BBC’s Radio 4 The World Tonight [4 – time marks 35:17-36:34, the entire topic stars at 31:31and is well worth a listen].

Ths topic on Radio 4 focuses on the effect smartphones have had on our lives in the last 10 years — and unfortunately working more efficiently has not been one of the realizations…

“With 10 years of the modern smartphone, we haven’t seen the productivity gains that you might expect that has been transformed in someways in the ways we work and transformed the way we live but has not transformed our economic fortunes…

“What proliferations of email allows you to do is to circulate information more effectively, and more rapidly, and to more people.

“That doesn’t necessarily, in and of itself, create economic value.

“What we are doing is making ourselves busier but we are not necessarily making ourselves more productive.

“Smartphones allow us to do things that we couldn’t do before, what they don’t do particularly well is regulate our behavior.

“Being able to communicate all the time just increases the amount of noise in an organization, it doesn’t increase the output.”

The ways David focuses upon isn’t productivity and being busy, as both are the ends.

The ways he focuses upon is the actions you choose, the actions we choose: ‘making ourselves‘

What you choose in doing with your technology is resulting in making yourself busier, or making yourself productive…

These choices are seeds for what you create, what you produce or just plainly not and remain a busy body…

Whether you are being busy or being productive, the rate of change of technology around you could not care less — the rate of change of technology is growing logarithmically no matter which you choose to do, so you are left with having to do what you can to change with change… or get left behind.

And the only way to change with change is by being productive, being selective in what you want to be productive about so to leverage your direction and future accordingly.

No society, no culture ever got ahead by being busy.

Forget the What, Learn the How

Albert Einstein once shared that we cannot expect to solve our problems using the same thinking we used to create them, lest we bury ourselves in more problems.

You have been trained by our present education system, which has been enforcing the same thing for more than a century now, to teach everyone to learn what to think…

With the rate of change of technology, this type of teaching and the rate of education can’t keep pace with the rate of change in technology – and truthfully, education is already getting left behind.

Think about that — education is already getting left behind.

That means you need to abandon being told what to think, you need to abandon learning what to think — and you need to learn how to think, with everything.

This is not something new — before the education system we have had for the last century or so, we had to learn many dry things like principles… laws…. morals… ethics… trustworthiness… respect… responsibility… fairness… caring… citizenship… all of them seeds that lead to learning how to think, learning how to build character.

And they were learned them in a mixed-level school room — as well as at home.

You will be hard pressed to find busy-ness and learning how to think in the same room…

Body Guard (Part 1) - Bucky Barnes

Pairing: Bucky Barnes x reader

Warnings: death, swearing, eventually smut in later parts

Summary: Tony Stark is a very rich man and with that came a lot of enemies. After a tragic event Tony decides himself and the people most important to him, especially his daughter, are in danger. He hires personal body guards. Bucky Barnes is assigned to Y/n Stark, the most troublesome, reckless Stark that there is. 

A/N: so an anon gave me this idea of a body guard au with Bucky and I really wanted to make it into a series as there’s a new series on BBC called Bodyguard so yeah, this is the first part out of around 10 I have planned out, if you think I should carry on and think you’d follow it let me know! :) xx

Masterlist

Part 1  Part 2  Part 3  Part 4

 Part 5  Part 6  Part 7  Part 8

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Mr Stark” Happy spoke in greeting. “My deepest condolences” Tony nodded briefly in thanks. Today was not a good day for him. Nor for any of the Stark family as limited as it now were.

“We have a new team of expertly trained security covering the area until the funeral is finished.” He spoke professional with care. Today was a sensitive day.

“Tonight you will meet with your assigned Body guard.” Happy informed.

“Thank you” Tony acknowledged, he stopped walking before turning back towards a happy. “Can you not tell Y/n just yet” he asked. Happy nodded in response.

Tony knew Y/n would not be happy about this idea, knowing she would argue that she was an adult and should be allowed to have freedom to do and go where she wanted. But he wasn’t going to let her argue against. This was for her own good. Tony couldn’t lose another child.

Tony walked over to where Pepper stood, a comforting hand placed on one of Y/n’s shoulders.

“How you holding up kiddo?” Tony asked. He always worried about her. Out of both of his children she was the one almost always getting herself into trouble. She acted recklessly and without thinking of consequences and that’s what scared him the most.

Yet here he was, about to stand and watch his son that he loved so dearly be lowered into the ground. A heart wrenching sob echoed in Tony’s ears as Y/n started to cry for her brother.

Life was so unfair and had taken him too soon. Some son of a bitch had murdered her brother in the cold, broad daytime. Worse part was that he was shot from afar, 2 meters away from herself.

She would never forget the image. As hard as she tried it was always there. Waking her in the night, screaming and scratching at her skin. As if she could feel the blood splattered all over the side of her face. Just like how it happened.

No one knew whether the shot was meant for him. As both Y/n and Tony were in front and behind him. It could have been for any one of them.

Tony Stark had a lot of enemies. But no one had ever tried to assassinate him and his family. Not until now. And in some way they were succeeding.

—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After they had said their goodbyes to him, Y/n scanned the surrounding areas looking at the people who turned up. Her brother was surrounded by some truly great people touching their hearts and their souls.

Her eyes landed on the armed security guards who had formed somewhat of a square around them, communicating through small radios.

She knew her father would up security around them and this irked her. She just wanted to live her life with no restrictions but she knew Tony would not allow that. She felt somewhat bitter towards her father, even though she knew none of this was his fault.

“Y/n love, I know this has been a hard day and we’re all tired and emotionally exhausted, but there’s some people we have to meet tonight and it’s very important.” Tony spoke.

She nodded not really caring or having the energy to look up. Tony shot a worried look to Pepper who gave him a reassuring smile.

Upon entering the stark tower Y/n noticed how there were two more guards than normal on the door. Rolling her eyes she followed Tony to the elevators that took them up to the top floor.

Awaiting them in their open space living room were four figures. One being happy and the other three unfamiliar.

Y/n could only see their backs as Happy spoke to them. They were tall, large framed people, wearing black suits. She could see small black ear pieces with wires leading down to their pockets and it was suddenly obvious as to who they were.

“Ah Mr Stark” Happy called, Tony moving into the room to stand in front of the thre strangers, scanning each of them, both Pepper and y/n followed.

Y/n did the same, scanning each one of them uneasily wondering why and who they were. She had some idea.

“Mr Stark, this is Steve Rogers, an ex military officer. He has been your assigned guard.” Happy spoke, gesturing to the taller of them men. 

Steve said hello holding his hand out to shake Tony’s. Y/n tired to look as disinterested as possible.

“Miss Potts, meet Natasha Romanoff.” he said gesturing to a tall red headed woman.

“Nice to meet you” Pepper smiled shaking the red heads hand.

That only left the tall dark haired, man, who stood up scarily straight, his shoulders back and his hands together at his front. Standing like a true soldier. He had a blank expression on his face as he stared forwards.

“Miss Stark” Happy spoke his eyes hesitantly falling to Y/n who didn’t look happy. “This is James Barnes, ex FBI agent, used to be the body guard for the president and now for you”

Y/n nodded to James sharply, holding back her tongue. She was furious.

“Nice to meet you m’aam” James spoke, his face still emotionless and hard.

She smiled fakely “likewise” before storming off to her room.

“Y/n” Tony called after her. But it was too late, he sighed turning to Pepper who gave him a sympathetic look. Telling him to give her some time and space.

James immediately followed her as it was now his duty to make sure she was safe and he took his duty seriously. He would never let himself fail. As much as he didn’t really care for the Stark’s always thinking of them as rich, snobbish people with bratty children. A job was a job and he would always work to the best of his ability.

James had seen Y/n on countless covers of newspapers and magazines. She was known as one of New Yorks greatest party goers. Known for her wild nights out, always making headlines with her destructive behaviour. James remembers always rolling his eyes at them, yes he didn’t know her, but he couldn’t help but judge her based off of them. He regarded her as a young adult who had too much money and made silly choices.

He managed to stop the elevator doors from closing with his hand, sliding in to stand beside her. She glared at nothing as she punched her floor number in.

It was awkwardly silent as she waited, the humming sound of the elevator the only thing calming her from screaming. Once she reached her floor James arm stopped her from stepping out first.

“What are you doing?” She spoke watching him move silently. He didn’t reply, instead just walking around checking everywhere on her floor.

He went from room to room searching behind doors, in wardrobes, couches and bookcases.

“Is this really necessary?” She asked annoyed watching him invade her room. His eyes landing of every little thing, it felt intrusive to have a stranger looking through her personal belongings.

James stared at her nodding sharply before carrying on.

Once he was finished he waited for her to meet his gaze before speaking.

“Everything is clear. I will be living one floor below you if you need me. Good night ma’am” he nodded, dismissing himself. With that he disappeared to the elevator.

She stared at his back glaring darkly as he walked away.

What a weird man she thought before retreating to her own bedroom and locking the door.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

James retreated back to his new room in the Stark tower. It was lavish and big, he had never had a room with this much space. But he didn’t really care for it. 

He stripped himself of his suit jacket, sitting on the sofa in silence. He poured himself a glass of whiskey, downing it before pouring himself another. 

It was the same thing every night. The whiskey numbed him from the world and allowed him to get a half decent nights sleep.

He hoped the walls were sound proof here. He didn’t want anybody to hear his screams in the night if he were to have one of his nightmares.

Terrance Dicks 1935-2019

Latest from the news site: One of Doctor Who's most influential writers Terrance Dicks has died at the age of 84. Terrance Dicks's contribution to Doctor Who was immense. He wrote forty-five episodes of the series between 1969 and 1983 and was script editor from 1969 until 1975, steering the programme through one of its most successful periods, helping to cast both the third and fourth Doctors. For a whole generation of fans, he was the man who brought the series to life through his Target novelisations. In the days before DVD's and Videos, the only way of reliving old episodes was through the Target books. Over 60 were written by Dicks and they enabled fans to experience stories shown years before many were born. Terrance Dicks was born in East London shortly before the second world war. He studied English at the University of Cambridge before serving for two years in the British Army. On his discharge, he won his first writing job working as an advertising copywriter before writing radio play scripts for the BBC. It was his friend and mentor Malcolm Hulke who got him his first job in television, helping with the scripting on the first series if the ITV adventure series The Avengers. He would later return the favour by commissioning scripts from Hulke for Doctor Who. His work on Doctor Who began in 1968 as assistant script editor, rewriting much of the Brian Hayes story The Seeds of Death. Promotion followed and he was charged with writing out the second Doctor with the epic 10 part series The War Games. In 1970 a new producer Barry Letts was appointed and thus began one of the highest regarded partnerships in the whole series run. Together they guided the series for five years, one of its most successful periods. Both men left the series at the same time as Jon Pertwee but not before casting the unknown Tom Baker as Doctor number 4. His commitment to the series didn't end with the third Doctor. He wrote several more stories including The Brain of Morbius, Horror of Fang Rock and State of Decay. In 1983 he penned the 20th-anniversary story The Five Doctor's, the last script he completed for the television series. He wrote two Doctor Who plays, Doctor Who and the Daleks in the Seven Keys to Doomsday in 1974 and Doctor Who - The Ultimate Adventure in 1989. Away from Doctor Who he co-created the short-lived BBC science-fiction TV series Moonbase 3 and wrote for the ATV science-fiction series Space: 1999. He served once more as script editor to producer Barry Letts on the BBC's Sunday Classics strand, before succeeding Letts as the producer overseeing productions such as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield and Vanity Fair. Tributes to Dicks have been paid from many associated with Doctor Who including current showrunner Chris ChibnallThe lights of Doctor Who are dimmer tonight, with the passing of Terrance Dicks. He was one of the greatest contributors to Doctor Who’s history, on screen and off. As writer and script editor, he was responsible for some of the show’s greatest moments and iconic creations. As the most prolific and brilliant adaptor of Doctor Who stories into Target novels, he was responsible for a range of books that taught a generation of children, myself included, how pleasurable and accessible and thrilling reading could be. Doctor Who was lucky to have his talents. He will always be a legend of the show. Everyone working on Doctor Who sends his family and friends our love and condolences at this difficult time.

Mostly Mezzo Mondays: Murrihy, Genaux, DiDonato, Cargill, and Lindsey; plus early, baroque, and galant goodies

Mostly Mezzo Mondays: a recurring (though not weekly) feature where, on Monday nights, I blog a list of the upcoming broadcasts that have caught my eye on World Concert Hall. My interests: baroque vocal music, art song recitals, and a list of favorite singers.

It’s a real mezzo-fest this week:

Paula Murrihy jumped in to sing the recital at Zeist that Sarah Connolly had to withdraw from due to illness late last month; with accompanist Sholto Kynoch, she performed works by Brahms, Mendelssohn, Debussy, Clara Schumann, and Robert Schumann, as well as a selection of Irish folk tunes. You can hear the recital in deferred broadcast Tuesday, June 4 on NPO Radio 4.*

This past Saturday, Vivica Genaux and Laurence Zazzo sang a concert of Handel arias (on the theme of “gender stories,” apparently) with the Lautten Compagney Berlin conducted by Wolfgang Katschner. It comes up for deferred broadcast Tuesday, June 4 on MDR Kultur.

I know one lucky Tumblr friend who has gone to Rome to hear her idol Joyce DiDonato in concert with the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. If you’re not quite that lucky, you can hear a live broadcast Wednesday, June 5 on Rai Radio 3.

I don’t often put instrumental stuff in my Mostly Mezzo Mondays list but I happened to listen earlier today to a previously-broadcast concert with Jordi Savall and Xavier Díaz-Latorre, and it was exquisite. Thus, their concert with Andrew Lawrence-King and Hesperion XXI has caught my eye on World Concert Hall tonight. Deferred broadcast Wednesday, June 5 on BBC Radio 3.*

Karen Cargill is scheduled to sing Das Lied von der Erde in Berlin on Wednesday this week, with Simon O’Neill and the DSO (Ticciati conducting). The concert will be broadcast a day later, Thursday, June 6, on Deutschlandfunk Kultur.

Anyone who would like to hear Kate Lindsey in Les contes d’Hoffmann can tune in for deferred broadcast of a performance recorded in Los Angeles in 2017. Vittorio Grigolo, Nicolas Testé, and Diana Damrau are among her co-stars. Saturday, June 8 on KUSC.

Here’s a post-baroque rarity that might be of interest: Galuppi’s opera buffa Il mondo alla roversa. The plot, I gather, involves a fictional island where women rule over men (spoiler alert: the moral of the story is not that this is a sensible idea). This performance by the French orchestra Akadêmia features singers I’m not familiar with. Deferred broadcast Sunday, June 9 on France Musique.*

Broadcasts marked with an asterisk (*) are on stations known to me to have a history of making concerts available for listening on demand for at least a week after the initial broadcast. (Stations that are not so marked might do so also; I just mark the ones I’m familiar with.)

Dan Horrigan's Riot to Heaven Sky or the Bird 8.30pm 16-20 August at Aces and Eights High octane stories from men who would steal the eyes of ya and you wouldn't know until you went to read the paper. Laugh, weep and laugh again as we break into heaven. Raconteuring, storytelling, and theatre of the highest calibre. Second chances are rarer than rocking horse manure so get your ticket before we're off to rob another town. Cheers. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2549

Fatiha El-Ghorri & Katherine Atkinson: Mocking Birds Fat Kat Comedy 4.15pm 18 August at The Bill Murray Join Fatiha El-Ghorri and Katherine Atkinson (both 2017 Funny Women Awards Regional Finalists) for an hour of stand up as Fatiha smashes Muslim stereotypes and challenges you to re-think what you think you know about Islam and Muslims, and Katherine offers up an acerbic, sideways view of motherhood, if she can be bothered. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2728

It wasn't. This is an hour of stand up about the human condition in crisis. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2390

Leave this World Alive 9.30pm 21 August at Water Rats 'I hope the exit is joyful' - wrote Frida Kahlo, only days before she died. When was the last time YOU thought about your end? And how does it make you feel? Powerless? Awake? Does it help you appreciate the moment you live in? We will reach out for a topic which brings all these questions on the table: assisted dying - determining our own end. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2731

But you will discover this was only the surface. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2729

The Golden Child William Desmond 5pm 24-25 August The Chapel Playhouse William Desmond has always considered himself the Golden Child. Today, people need to standout in a crowd of hundreds of faces. Will is a twin, and during this 60 minute show he explores what it is like to be in constant competition with his brother. With musical parody and silliness, Will explains being good at everything isn't always the answer. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2718

Ross Drummond & Harry Monaghan: The Orb 5.30pm 25 August The Bill Murray Have you touched The Orb? Want to meet two that have? A mainstay of science, wonder and amazement since its inception in the late 80s, The Orb is science’s greatest invention. What’s its purpose? We’re not sure. Perhaps it merely exists to inspire us. Anything is possible with The Orb. https://camdenfringe.com/show.php?acts_id=2709
