Un stand-up comic este cineva care face comedie într-o manieră informală, vorbind cu publicul în absenţa celui de-al "patrulea perete" teatral. În mod normal aceasta se face de către un comic, cu un microfon. Se practică în cluburi, colegii, săli de teatru, locaţii alternative – aproape oriunde există un public doritor şi deschis la comedie. Comicul redă o serie de poveşti amuzante într-un ritm rapid, glume scurte (numite bit-uri) şi one-liners (glume care au şi pregătirea, şi poanta în interiorul aceleiaşi fraze). Toate acestea constituie monologul, rutina sau act-ul. Unii comici folosesc recuzită, muzică sau elemente de iluzionism în spectacolele lor.

Multe rutine de stand-up sunt similare cu one-man show-urile, diferenţa principală fiind aşteptările publicului, care, la stand-up aşteaptă un flux relativ constant de râsete. Aceasta afectează în schimb ţelurile comicului, care se afla sub presiunea obligaţiei de a livra aceste râsete.

Multe locaţii mici susţin evenimente “open mic” (microfon deschis) unde comicii amatori pot performa în faţa unui public, oferindu-li-se astfel posibilitatea de a-şi perfecţiona meşteşugul şi a pătrunde în branşă. Genul stand-up comedy este considerat dificil de stăpânit deoarece comicul se află în deplina putere a publicului, ceea ce este element integrant al spectacolului. Un comic experimentat trebuie să se raporteze cu rapiditate la dipoziţia şi gusturile oricărui tip de public şi să îşi adapteze numărul în concordanţă. Stand-up este o formă de artă comică devotată în mod deschis obţinerii şi primirii de râsete mai presus decât orice alta componentă a genului (spre deosebire de comedia teatrală, care creează comedia în structura unei piese folosindu-se de caractere şi situaţii). Aptitudinile atribuite comicului care practică stand-up sunt diverse; adesea este necesar ca el să-şi asume rolurile de scriitor, publicist, performer, promotor, producător şi maşinist. Una dintre caracteristicile unui comic experimentat este abilitatea ca nu numai să facă faţă unui heckler (comentator din public, de multe ori maliţios), ci să şi câştige sala de partea sa şi să o distreze cu o replică. Mulţi comici care practică stand-up lucrează ani de zile ca să obţină 45 de minute de material şi de obicei îşi interpretează numărul în mod repetitiv, perfecţionându-l încetul cu încetul. Actorul şi comicul Will Ferrel a afirmat că stand-up comedy este un gen dificil, singuratic şi răutăcios.

Sper ca sunteti lamuriti despre tot ceea ce implica "stand-up comedy"-ul! Enjoy!

La rueda de prensa ha comenzado con la proyección de un video en el que se ha visualizado un paseo virtual en 3d del stand realizado por la empresa OM ESPACIOS DE IDENTIDAD, con sede en Murcia desde primeros de este año, y la agencia de publicidad OI ESTUDIO CREATIVO.

I was speaking at a youth gathering a few month ago and asked them the question, "What are we against?"  The answers came flying out "homosexuality, abortion, gay marriage, porn, etc."  Then I asked them "What are we for?  I mean, what are we fighting for?"  All I got were blank looks.

I think it would be good for all of us who are followers of Jesus to check ourselves.  What is it we are fighting for?  What is it we are promoting in our world?  Where are the areas that we are looking to make a positive impact and not just throw up some picket sings and protest.

The world is well aware of all that we are against and it hasn't changed any of their minds. So, what are we supposed to stand up for, and not just against?  Look at the ministry life of Jesus.  Check out who he hung around, who he ate with, who he healed, what occupied most of his day.  It is there that you will see what we are to be fighting for.

So, what are you fighting for in on your journey?

To those on the Unpaved Journey

It works, and best of all, it's free!

The pieces of furniture of living room are composed of a sofa, of a coffee table, sometimes side lamps and tables. The pieces of furniture of room to be slept are composed of a bed, lamps and tables on side. The kitchen/movable dinning of part is composed of a large table, chairs, and sometimes of the stools. The units of entertainment are players of TV, DVD and speakers.

It is not easy to buy the pieces of furniture at the house because the member different from a household have usually different conditions and tastes. Consequently it is important that each member in the family must initially agree on the model and the use of the pieces of furniture before purchase.

Many only makes really errors by judging the pieces of furniture starting from their external aspects without thinking even of its practical functions and long-term use. So much then it is essential that each piece of furniture must be completely considered before it is bought. This process is called preparation.

All the pieces of furniture must also be examined several times and the color of fabric must match the potential owner exactly the 'wish of S. a practical thing to make is to again bring a pilot piece of fabric to the potential buyer to the 'house of S to see whether it matches the interior of the existing house and other pieces of furniture. You point out that the color of fabric can seem different in day and the night. Consequently, the potential buyer must be patience and observe the type and the color of fabric during at least 24 hours before the decision to order the pieces of furniture. To be unaware of this process can have like consequence the dissatisfaction with the purchaser and the salesman as movable does not have normally to be turned over or exchanges.

The balance of the pieces of furniture is also extremely important. The potential buyers must exactly measure space available for their new piece of furniture, at their houses before going to any store of pieces of furniture. It is recommended that the potential buyers carry with them a measurement of band to the stores of pieces of furniture and correctly measure the pieces of furniture which they are interested before accepting to buy it.

All these processes are also applied by choosing units of Entertainment Home. All the equipment must be examined and thought through before being bought. At the 21st century, technology develops at incredible intervals and the potential owners must really be sure that the models of the players of TV or DVD in question will be certainly a good investment and gained 't are out-of-date in a few years. For this reason it must reiterate that pieces of furniture should not be bought in a haste so much there will not be any dissatisfaction occurring after the purchase.

A São Luís é sinônimo de qualidade, o que mais uma vez ficou comprovado com a sua participação na MULTIFeiras 2008.

GARISSA, Kenya, September 29 (Compass Direct News) – A longstanding effort to replace a church with a mosque in Kenya’s northern town of Garissa culminated in an attack by 50 Muslim youths this month that left the worship building in ruins.

The gang stormed the building of Redeemed Gospel Church on Sept. 14 and pelted the congregation with stones, sending many Christians fleeing while others became embroiled in fistfights. Ten Christians received hospital treatment for minor injuries and were released.

Church leaders said the Muslim mob also destroyed pews, damaged the church building’s walls of corrugated iron, smashed the glass-mounted pulpit and burned the church banner with its stand.

“We had just started the Sunday service when, without warning, a rowdy group of about 50 Muslim youths invaded the church, pelting stones at us and destroying our structures,” said the church youth chairman, identified only as Suma.

Local media reported that the 10 church members were hospitalized, but a district nurse at the hospital told Compass that no one was admitted due to the violence. A church elder at East Africa Pentecostal Church in Garissa, about 400 kilometers (249 miles) from Nairobi, confirmed that the church members were treated at the hospital and allowed to go home.

Tensions between Christians and the Muslim-majority population in the semi-desert town of 20,000 people began simmering after Muslims built a mosque next to the church plot at No. 21 Windsor in June 2007. Purchasing its land on Nov. 1, 1999, the church had begun worshipping there by early 2001, eventually growing to 400 members.

Church leaders complained to the district commissioner in June 2007 that the new mosque was built too close to the church – only three meters separate the two structures – and that it was blocking the church entryway.

“Prior to that, the owner of that land had promised to use half of it and sell the other half to the church,” the church leaders reported to the district commissioner in June 2007. “But in 2007, she changed her mind and gave it to the sheikhs to build the mosque. We reported the matter to the DC’s office that it would not go well with the church.”

Officials had ruled that no further permanent structures were to be set up on the land by either party until a later date to be determined by the district commissioner.

“The church faithfully obeyed, but the Muslims defied the orders and began immediately to put up a permanent structure,” according to the letter church leaders wrote to the district commissioner. The building of the mosque was allegedly sponsored by M.K. Roble, a wealthy Muslim in Garissa, according to the letter.

“The problems between the church and the Muslims began and have escalated since then,” it states.

Government security intelligence had reported that Muslims planned to destroy the church if it continued to operate within the residential area, District Commissioner (DC) Alois Okango told Compass. The administration had proposed a new site for the church to worship, Jamhuri Club, but two days before the attack church leaders wrote two letters to Okango saying they would remain worshipping in their building.

“We would like to notify you that our church members have decided to have our Sunday service at our usual place on September 14 and not at the new site of Jamhuri Club,” they wrote in one of the letters, “because we have come to realize that the new site is only temporary, and we will only move out of our premise if we are guaranteed a permanent place of worship.”

Okango told Compass that to avert a crisis, the administration has decided that the church should relocate temporarily to a site near an agricultural showground. The government also advised the church to sell its property near the mosque and buy another piece of land, preferably outside Garissa town center.

This suggestion, Okango told Compass, did not augur well with church members, who felt they had already established the church at the site and that it was the mosque that should be moving.

“The Christians threatened to go and worship in the ruined premises if no action was taken,” Okango said. “They said they were ready to die for the sake of their faith.”

The government is striving to avert further incidents by preventing the Christians from returning to the ruined structure, according to a Provincial Police official identified only as Chelimo. With tensions expected to rise during the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, he said police were taking precautionary measures to ensure that the congregation never returned to their property.

“To allow this would be suicidal,” Chelimo told Compass. “We have deployed five security guards every day to make sure that the members of the church will not enter its structure.”

Elusive Justice

Wondering why those who attacked the church had not been arrested and charged in court, Redeemed Gospel Church pastor David Matolo said the government should punish the assailants.

“The church has the right to be protected by the government – allowing the minority Christians to suffer is quite wrong,” Pastor Matolo told Compass. “Why should the Muslims interfere with the church’s worship? I as their pastor cannot shy away when my members are ill-treated. We are ready to pay the price, but we want justice to be done.”

He said church leaders had agreed on an alternative site only to have the district commissioner suddenly revoke it.

“The DC had promised to locate us to the provincial residential area, and we had cleared the said site, only to be stopped without prior notice,” Pastor Matolo said. “Now we have no place to worship.”

A missionary from Tanzania who works in the area informed Compass that Muslims have distributed leaflets threatening to destroy all churches in Garissa. They have also threatened to burn Garissa’s open-air market operated by Christians from “down Kenya,” that is, non-Muslims, he said.

The missionary said the safety of the more than 2,000 Christians in Garissa is in jeopardy, and he appealed to the government to protect the right of worship of all people.

“It is quite unfair that the Redeemed Gospel Church has been displaced and is now praying under a tree in an open space with no amenities,” he said.

District Commissioner Okango said that the administration must protect Muslims from the noise of worship emanating from church at night that has disturbed residents, as well as prevent clashes. In both the mosque and church, loud speakers had been set up facing each other with confrontational messages blaring from each.

“The government is sensitive to the feelings of the people,” Okango said. “We cannot allow disorder to reign in North Eastern Province in the name of religious patriotism.”

Land issues alone have not been responsible for tensions in the area. The Rev. Ibrahim Kamwaro, chairman of the Pastors’ Fellowship in Garissa, said Pastor Matolo had offended Muslims when he preached to a lame Muslim man.

Muslims were said to be upset that the pastor persuaded the disabled man to stop going to the mosque and instead join his church. Pastor Matolo’s alleged promise to the disabled man of a better life offended area Muslims, Rev. Kamwaro said.

Muslims restrict churches in Garissa in various ways: Christians are not allowed conduct prayers, sing or use musical instruments in rented homes owned by Muslims. No teaching of Christian Religious Education in schools is allowed; only Islamic Religious Knowledge is taught.

Garissa has more than 15 Christian denominations, the main ones being the East Africa Pentecostal Church, the Redeemed Gospel Church, the Anglican Church, Deliverance Church, the Full Gospel Churches of Kenya, the Africa Inland Church and African Christian Churches and schools.

Report from Compass Direct News

You must think I’m dirty, cause you called me good ground

Filthy hands and filthy feet, you knew the rest of me was clean

Or not too far gone

You planted you a seed, cause what you reap is what you sow

I don’t know if it will grow now, just the way you planned

It’s too early to know

It makes no sense to plant peas in the desert

And don’t tend tomatoes in the snow

No matter how hard you work, your crop won’t grow

No, your crop won’t grow

It makes no sense to put melon on the moon

You can’t raise compliance in a mule

No matter how hard you work, that’s the general rule

Yes, that’s the general rule

But get some good, good seed

And find some good, good ground

Pick your time and your place

And sow them very sound

Be very gentle when they’re young

Before the sprouts start to show

Keep predators at bay

That’s your love that they’ll know

Let the sun shine down

Let your crop come ’round

And that good, good ground

Will never let you down

No it won’t let you down

Feed them, love them

But know you just can’t own them

Raise them, reap them

You don’t know what you’re getting’

But you know it’s gonna be good

Yes, you know it’s gonna be good

I was looking for you man, when I really wasn’t seeking

You were looking for me too, it seems like all too long

What’s the meaning?

You prayed my heart ope’ up, and let the love pour in

So many messages I hear, if this crop goes and fails

Will you stand by me?
