I found this following a link to an article about freedom from the Wikipedia page for "The Shawshank Redemption". The original comment: Angus C. Larcombe suggests that the film provides a great illustration of how characters can be free, even in prison, or unfree, even in freedom, based on one's outlook in life.

How to set the Flickr cover photo

ZimmermansWay:

I've been using this as a workaround:

1. Create a 2048 x 768 (72 dpi) image. Fill with black.

2. Crop your cover photo to 2048 x 402.

3. Paste and center the cover photo onto the black background created in step 1.

4. Save as JPEG and upload to Flickr.

Here are some examples:

www.flickr.com/groups/782343@N22/

www.flickr.com/groups/22563825@N00/

Once you have added the image as the Group cover photo, you can delete it from your Photostream.

Do you know why most self confidence building advice fail?
Because they are not based on correct psychological concepts.

I know how hard it feels when someone finds that he lacks confidence, because i have been there, and when i managed to get over my insecurities i wanted to transfer my knowledge to others so that they can become more confident.

-- M.Farouk Radwan

I was drawn to the link between lack of self-confidence and insecurities.

I've studied the ugly history of race in this country to teach others. I've unflinchingly stood against bigotry and bias and racism in all their forms. And, still, I've struggled with this self-knowledge. That's why I know it isn't something you can pray away or think away or effectively corral without deliberative, purposeful action that must become second nature.

-- Isaac Bailey

I resonated with the comment indicating that "action that must become second nature" is vital to change

En fait, il ne s'agit pas de faire de l'angelisme, donc d'éradiquer les pensées négatives parce qu'elles sont négatives mais parce qu'elles sont fausses.

I'm confident in my body. I hope to prove that it doesn't matter who you are, what size you are, how tall you are, what color you are, it just really boils down to confidence. I hope people get that message.

-- Serena Williams

No one can tell you who you are except for you. No one can tell you how beautiful you are, except for you. No one is that judge, you have to judge yourself, because at the end of the day, you always end up with yourself and not with these people. You have to really look at yourself and love yourself.

-- Serena Williams

I don't think we would have a woman president if we didn't have a black president first. He [Barack Obama] really said anybody can be president -- you don't have to be a white man to be president.

-- Nancy Pelosi

Reminds me of Caroline McHugh's assertion that Obama seemed to be a verb ("Yes we can"), that that is who he is

Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of the fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be continually aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.

-- Marianne Williamson

You will only ever have two choices: love or fear. Choose love and don't ever let fear turn you against your playful heart. All that will be left of you is what was in your heart.

-- Jim Carrey

Fear may be clouding your judgment. It’s hard to know before you’ve tried something whether fear or real dislike is turning you away from it. Facing fears is worth the trouble: we often fear most what would make us most happy.

To demonstrate how seriously I take networking, I’m issuing myself an ultimatum: I will not return to a job before I’ve demonstrated significant progress in this area.

Colin Kaepernick refused to stand for the national anthem of 'a country that oppresses black people and people of color'

This is not something that I am going to run by anybody. I am not looking for approval. I have to stand up for people that are oppressed. ... If they take football away, my endorsements from me, I know that I stood up for what is right.

-- Colin Kaepernick

Excerpt from the article below:

Colin Kaepernick refused to stand for the national anthem of 'a country that oppresses black people and people of color'

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people and people of color," Colin Kaepernick told NFL.com "To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."
