  • THE CLASS.Fdr
    Entre les Murs (The Class) Written by Laurent Cantet, Robin Campillo and François Bégaudeau Based on the novel "Entre les murs" by François Bégaudeau published by Verticales, 2006 Directed par Laurent Cantet Developed with the backing of the Centre National de la Cinématographie, the Procirep and the European Union's Media Programme INT. CAFÉ - DAY The first morning of the new school year. In a Paris café, leaning on the bar, FRANÇOIS, 35 or so, peacefully sips coffee. In the background, we can vaguely make out a conversation about the results of the presidential election. François looks at his watch and seems to take a deep breath as if stepping onto a stage. EXT. STREET - DAY François comes out of the café. Across the street, we discover a large building whose slightly outdated façade is not particularly welcoming. He walks over to the imposing entrance that bears the shield of the City of Paris in wrought iron and beneath which we read “JAURES MIDDLE SCHOOL”. On the opposite sidewalk, coming from the other end of the street, a small group of teachers hurries towards the entrance. François hears them joking. VINCENT He’s a really great guy, not the back- slapping type but… François greets them in passing. INT. CORRIDORS - SCHOOL - DAY We discover the school’s deserted corridors. Through the doorway of a classroom, François sees a few cleaners who, in a very calm atmosphere, clean the tables and line them up neatly, wash the windows… A short distance further on, a man in overalls applies one last coat of paint to an administrative notice board.

  • Own the Day, Own Your Life – Aubrey Marcus 1. Water, Light, Movement
    Own the Day, Own Your Life – Aubrey Marcus 1. water, light, movement How many choices in your daily life are centrally tall subs? ? Soda or sparkling water? Netflix were night out? Should I go to the gym or not? Every day, nearly all of these choices are a 50-50 call. You could just as easily wind in one place as the other. If you changed one thing you do within the first 20 minutes of waking up (I am going to give you three), however, where you just have a little bit more energy from a high fat, low sugar breakfast, maybe you choose differently. Maybe it would cease to be a question at all. of course you’re going to the gym. Then, because you went to the gym, you find yourself less stressed that night. Are You have sex. Then you sleep better. Then you wake up more vibrating with more energy. And you have set in motion a positive cascade of choices. The tipping point was just one small change in breakfast. You exchanged your Apple jacks for an avocado, and all of a sudden your day was different, your week was different, maybe your whole month was different. Hydrate Immediately… when you’re dehydrated and have nothing in your stomach, the caffeine enters into your blood stream incredibly fast, releasing a flood of stress hormones from the adrenal glands that your body reads as a fight or flight trigger… it’s a good rule of thumb to keep aggressive caffeine and feline doses to a minimum first thing in the morning.

  • What Should I Write on an Egift Card?
    What Should I Write on an eGift Card? By: Shelley Hunter Not sure what to write on an egift card to make it more personal? Here are over 100 things to write on an egift card to make it more thoughtful. From the super-simple egift card on an app to the more elaborate selection at GiftCards.com, the one element you can add to nearly every digital gift card is a personal message. Whether you’re allowed 256 characters or an entire paragraph, the heartfelt note is critical to making an egift feel personal. Got writer’s block? Read below. I’ve got over 100 sure-fire sentiments to help you say the right thing. But don’t overthink this. People want connection. They want to know you care. Taking the time to send a gift already conveys that. The words are the next-level. If you’re a boss wanting to say “job well done,” then say that. Say, “I appreciate you working extra hard to win this account.” If you’re a loved one missing a sweetheart, then say that. “I would really love to be with you today. I hope this gift puts me in your thoughts today as well.” If you’re a grandma wanting to congratulate your grandchild on graduation, then it’s easy. Just say, “Grandma is so proud of you!” I guess what I’m saying is that the process is similar to sending a note inside a greeting card. The only difference is that you are sending money as well. And who is going to be sad about that? Nobody.

  • Discovering the Vision in Beth Moore's "Breaking Free" Message
    Discovering the Vision in Beth Moore’s “Breaking Free” Message: Applying Bormann’s Fantasy Theme Analysis to Evaluate the Message. By April Nicole Pressley A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of Arts in Communication At Liberty University April 2010 ii Copyright 2010 by April Nicole Pressley All rights reserved iii Acknowledgements Writing a thesis is an interesting experience. When it takes a couple of years of your life to get it done, it seems difficult to distinguish those who offered guidance and help along the way. There are the professors in the beginning who thought the project was worthy of study. There are fellow classmates and peers who are there to bounce ideas off of. There are friends who encourage you not to give up and who work to convince you that you are smart enough to get this done. Overall, the experience is based on collaboration from beginning to end. A few people do stand out and they contributed to making this thesis a completed project. Though I risk being cliché, I must first acknowledge that without faith in God and believing that something beyond myself was encouraging me to get this project done, I likely would never have possessed the inner gumption to persevere through the rougher parts of this project. I feel that God used this project to teach me more about myself and my relationship with Him. I could not be more grateful for the way this project was used in my life to mature me into a stronger more confident version of myself who truly believes that with God all things are possible.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. “THIS IS AMAZING GRACE” This song begins with two questions: 1) “Who breaks the power of sin and darkness?” 2) “Whose love is mighty and so much stronger?”* Read 1 Corinthians 15:55-57 to find the answer. The second half of Verse 1 asks two more questions: 1) “Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder?” 2) “Who leaves us breathless, in awe and wonder?”* Read Psalm 29:1-4 to find the answer. Although the song lyrics answer these questions with “The King of glory, the King above all kings,”* the Scriptures give even more ways that God demonstrates His power. What are they? Now read Romans 5:8. What else does God demonstrate or prove? How does He do it?
