Visit The Municipal Building/Tourism...
While strolling at the Plaza, I saw the Municipal Building. I wanted to go to the Tourism Office to explore if they have a map or brochure regarding Miagao, but they were having their Flag Ceremony and usual Monday rites. Their program was still going on when hubby and I had to move to the next town so I wasn't able to visit their office. If you...more
Stroll or Rest In The Plaza
While waiting for hubby who was busy with his photography, I explored the compound of the church and discovered the side gate that led to the town Plaza. The Plaza had a statue of Dr. Jose Rizal, our National hero. There are flowering plants around the Plaza, giving it a lively character. I saw some locals strolling, perhaps to have a dose of the...more

Aside from the magnificent church, Miagao has a cemetery with a century-old chapel or capilla. Why so special? Its the only one in the Visayas with a brick dome and it is still intact.

Miagao Restaurants
Don't Miss The Fresh Seafood
-Located 10 minutes before reaching the town proper of Miag-ao from Guimbal-From Guimbal, original plan was to go straight to Miag-ao Church but saw Doming's on the way-Doming's Talabahan is similar to Allan's Talabahan in Oton Town in terms of what to offer-Only difference is Doming's stands very near the sea shore-If you are planning to go...more
Do taste their Kinilaw- Ilonggo style
Doming's Talabahan is a rustic place by the shores of Miagao. It serves a variety of home-cooked native food, food that Ilonggos are so used to but never get tired of.

Miagao Transportation
Going To Miagao
Miagao Town about 35 kilometers west of Iloilo City is one of the major highlights in going to Iloilo City and Province due to the famous Miagao Church. The Church is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Unique Baroque Churches of the Philippines" in 1993. There are basically three modes of transport in going to miagao from Iloilo...more
The FANCY JEEPNEYS to MIAGAO-SAN JOAQUIN
Only in da Pilipins...that's what we say. The jeepneys--we Filipinos invented them after World War 2 converting the the military jeeps into colorful transpo. In Iloilo, we have come up with newer models for the 21st century. They're sleek and streamlined with hoods that are carbon copies of branded cars and vans (take note, these are done by hand,...more
Public Utility Jeep (PUJ)
Miagao is only 40 kms. southwest of Iloilo City so it can easily be reached. We took a jeepney from the market terminal in the City; our travel time was about 55 minutes. It is confusing because we were charged P50 from Iloiolo City the first time we went to Miagao. But the second time we went there, we were charged only P45. Maybe the price...more
Miagao Shopping
Stores Infront of Miagao Church (Didn't Get Names): Need Drinks or Snacks?
I was looking for a canteen/carinderia near the vicinity of Miagao Church, but I couldn't find any. Across the street from Miagao Church, I saw a small pharmacy, a small bakery and a hardware/general merchandise store. I asked if they sold mineral water and Coke Zero. Fortunately, the pharmacy sold purified (not mineral) water so I bought 2 bottles from them. The general merchandise store sold Coke Zero. I bought one and was surprised to see that Coke Zero did not come in cans but in small bottles. I asked for 1, and the boy quickly poured the content of the bottle into a small plastic bag and put a straw....Anyhow, whichever way they served the drinks in Miagao stores, they surely quenched our thirst ;))
Oh, I also saw a sidewalk vendor selling bottles of mineral water!
What to pay: Sorry, I forgot how much was the Coke Zero, but the small bottle of purified water was P15 each.Add to your Trip Planner

Miagao Off The Beaten Path
Be engulfed by the variety of smells, sights and sounds in the Miagao market. Time your visit on a Saturday morning (the main market day of Miagao) and weave in and out of the bulanteros (vendors) and local consumers buying their food and other basic needs. To give you a sense of direction, focus on four things: 1) the fish section - the freshest of fish, learn the various names of fish 2) pottery from Cagbang - cooking vessels, water jugs and flowerpots from local clay 3) native rice cakes - check out especially the kalamay hati and baye-baye wrapped in banana leaf rectangles and 4) Patadyong - multi-colored handwoven fabric in plaid designs, an industry since pre-spanish times
When you're tired of shopping around, have home cooking Miagao-style at the Karan-an. If you're adventurous, look for that stall which offers goat stew (caldereta) and pig's blood stew (dinuguan). You'd be surprised and want for more.Related to:

In case you will eat @ Doming's first
Favorite thing: -If you will eat @ Doming's before going straight to Miag-ao to see the church, just hail a tricycle on the main road
-No need to take another jeepney ride since it will just take approx 8-10 minutes to reach the church from Doming's

There could be big changes to the Isle of Palms City Council in November when five members' terms expire. Mayor Dick Cronin and councilmembers Marty Bettelli, Doug Thomas, Barbara Bergwerf and Sandy Stone can choose to let their terms end or campaign for re-election.
Cronin and Bettelli both told the Moultrie News this past week they were both seeking re-election. Thomas said he is currently undecided on a potential run. Bergwerf also said she is undecided, adding, "I will make that decision the middle of August."
Stone did not respond to a request for comment. There are nine total Isle of Palms city council seats, including mayor.
All the people up for re-election have served since 2010. These are not official announcements, though, because candidates must return their petitions to run by Aug. 22. Petitions first become available for pick up on Aug. 9, according to Isle of Palms city clerk Marie Copeland.

Letters to the Editor
Just don't leave him alone with his cronies!
Re: "Thaksin should not overlook the PAD lesson,' The Nation, yesterday.
Thaksin didn't overlook the PAD message, Avudh Panananda, he tried to crush it, as simple as that. Because the PAD message was speaking directly to the minority who saw through Thaksin's populism, whether they were conservative or not.
Winning elections never gives a majority the right to trample on a minority in a democracy, what is more permission to rewrite the laws, wedge-open the loopholes, and appoint ones own family to all the high places - it happens, of course it does, but in a mature democracy there are checks and balances that make it extremely difficult. Under Thaksin those checks and balances were systematically dismantled, and there's a whole lot more still to come if he gets his way. Which is why he hires expensive foreign lawyers to lobby corporations and influence the media, and of course why he sends his beautiful sister out to read those carefully prepared speeches at polite gatherings all over the world.
A demagogue like Thaksin understands very well that there is always a self-justifying, steamroller element in a majority, and particularly a big one, and one way he exploits it is by trying to make it look and feel good. Alternative thinking is always a minority activity, because it means you've been able to get away, think about things, and come back a new person. Thaksin knows that only a handful of Thais have the opportunity to do that, and while he's got the chance he's attempting to make all his opponents look old-fashioned and selfish, an out-of-touch "elite". Of course some of his opponents are from the older generation, but in my experience very few young people with any education admire him at all, or share his values.
The present crisis in Thailand is about what the country wants to be. The majority think they are supporting a push for justice and equal opportunity when they support Thaksin Shinawatra, which is his official message, of course, and that of his lobbyist and his sister, but so did the Germans in the 1920s and 30s when they supported Hitler. The German people were rebelling against the crushing burden of debt and reparations that had crippled them after World War I, and they sincerely believed that Adolf Hitler would bring them a better life.
That's why the minority matters in Thailand today, and why protests must be allowed to happen. Furthermore, the situation is hotting up so fast because time is running out for Thaksin Shinawatra - he knows that the balance of power is shifting against him because an alternative minority is growing up and beginning to think for itself. Thaksin is on the edge of being left alone up at the top with his cronies - which he doesn't mind at all, needless to say, but he's got to have all the reins of power in his hands first if he's to stay there!
And that is the worry.

Priyanka, Ranbir to Co-Host 59th Filmfare Awards
By IANS - MUMBAI
Published: 07th January 2014 02:13 PM
Last Updated: 07th January 2014 02:13 PM
Actors Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra will co-host the 59th Filmfare awards, and the 'desi' girl says she is nervous.
"Filmfare awards is an experience in itself. This is the first time that I will be co-hosting the awards, I am very nervous," the 31-year-old said here Monday at a press conference for the forthcoming event.
As part of their anchoring, the two actors will present the future of Indian cinema in a fun way at the awards ceremony.
"I have not done it much, but Ranbir and I have been working very hard to make sure it will be lot of fun to show you the future of what we think cinema should be, which will obviously be a little mad and lots of fun. So, it's going to be a really exciting time," Priyanka said.
This is Priyanka's first stint at hosting the prestigious awards and she is feeling the pressure considering the standard set by other actors in previous editions.
"Very few girls have hosted the awards. But yes, there is a huge pressure because Filmfare as an event has always been entertaining, funny and there has been a standard set by a lot of people, including Ranbir himself," Priyanka said.
"Whether it is Shah Rukh (Khan), Saif (Ali Khan), Ranbir, Imran (Khan)... so many people who have hosted the show, they have always set the standard. So, it is scary and exciting," she added.
The 59th edition of the Filmfare awards will be held Jan 24 at Yash Raj Films studio.

I went in for a clutch repair, had a few quotes and halfords came in very reasonably, and came with a warranty which others didn't. I also asked for my brakes to be checked after VW advised they needed doing. Halfords were very honest and said they had months left.
Very easy to book and pay for. Only negative being that i should have also receoved a "free" safety check as part of the service, however they said they didn't have time for it.
Tony Hemmings
Took my 04 Corsa in for an MOT, having been generally unimpressed with both independent and dealership garages in the past. The level of customer service/contact exceeded my expectations and the manager (Emma) kept me updated through both a problem with some of their equipment and ongoing about how the car was doing (it passed!). Will definitely be going back!
Mr Field
Quick, friendly and professional. Great job
Mr Holt
Made me feel comfortable and that I was being given honest advice. I never felt as if I'd been ripped off and I have recommended them to my friends and family and will definitely be using them again
Ms Dawson
Arrived early and was dealt with promptly by a Receptionist called Emma who was very good, friendly and chatty, apologised for the heating being on because she had the flu,waited in reception for half an hour then had a walk and returned, car finished, told it had failed the MOT (not surprised) but I think some of the recommendations are a bit "questionable"- what's a "pan-rod"? and I`ve never owned a car which has an oil leak, the workshop was untidy and could do with a decent clean up and a lick of paint, also mechanics in filthy overalls should be stopped from entering the reception, and turn the radio down. Get well soon Emma.
Mr Potts
An excellent experience, staff were polite, helpful and made me feel welcome. We talked through matters with my car together and came to a mutual agreement.
Mr Roy
I booked MOT on line as half price offer. Took car to halfords garage. Good service. They phoned me when car was ready. Would recommend this garage.
Mrs Foster
Very impressed as I wasn't booked in and they replaced my clutch the same day.
Mrs Bentley
From booking my MOT to collecting my car afterwards, the experience was pleasant and the staff could not have been more polite or helpful.
Mr Cresswell
Excellent service thank you...would recommend to friends and work colleagues.
Mr Tompkins
Halfords reminded me by phone of MOT renewal and booked me in for very competitive price. Staff are polite and helpful,offering advice and product information.
Mrs Carter
very polite and and hassle free booking but took quite a while longer than informed to repair suspension rod was supposed to be ready friday before 5pm and wasn't repaired until 12 on the saturday ,seemed expensive but work is satisfactory and car feels better
Mr Pike
In the two years I have been using Halfords I have never once not been completely satisfied with the work they carry out. The are always welcoming and complete any works in the shortest time possible. Would always recommend them.
Ms Dawson
I've been to halford Kettering for and MOT, appointment was accurate as the finishing time, the little fault failed my MOT, has been reported to me, and fixed by the team and MOT passed, the price including the repair was cheaper than a MOT itself in most a the place in Kettering, I was so happy I brought a second car same day just for a suspension check, and it was free, can't ask for better, thankyou to all ?
I have usually used my car model dealerships when servicing my vehicles. When purchasing my Lexus I had a problem on the first day and the dealership in London directed me to my local Halfords. The mechanics were extremely helpful and explained very clearly. I have used their service a few times in the last 8 months. The service for my MOT was very painless and without anxiety due to reassurance that my car was with knowledgeable experts. Would definitely recommended this garage.
Ms Moon
Feel confident with the service I get
Ms Arden
Decent service for winter prep with benefits of windscreen treatment for cheap price.
Simon Wheel
I put my car in the garage in kettering to get mot and safety checks, the mot failed and they notified me of the problem and reassured me this would be looked at and fixed and a couple of hours later they did what they said the price was cheap which was brilliant and was about to drive it away within a few hours.i would recommend them to anyone good team of people working there.
Tom w
Happy to be able to book online at great price and I will have to be able to be in good hand's
Mr Brassington
Second year of using Halfords I think in my opinion was a good move to try and be satisfied x
Mr Broughton
Booked online evening before and got MOT done first thing in the morning. Good service.
Good Service and Value for Money
Ms Baranovich
Paul the Manager was really helpful and assisted me really well. Being female and only viewing car maintenance as an unnecessary chore, he instilled confidence and I shall certainly return to Halfords.
Mrs O'Donoghue
Great service, pleasant helpful staff thanks.
Miss Bertram
I missed my initial slot for MOT but John was only to happy to re-book my test for te following day. Perfect experience
Natalie Abraham
A quick and easy way to get an MOT done. The staff are friendly and called me at various stages to keep me informed for something ad simple as an MOT. I have used my local Halfords AutoCentre a few times now and Not a bad word to say about it. Thanks!
Mr Smith
Great customer service, great price, very happy with the whole service.
Mr Ibbertson
I found Halfords very helpful nothing was any trouble, they were true to there word . The service I received was first class, I would not hesitate to recommend Halfords to my friends very friendly bunch.
Mr Crawford
A friendly and knowledgeable experience with the engineers and manager willing to go the extra mile to help. Well informed throughout the process .
Mr Love
I call my car suzyQ...a Suzuki of course....getting on in years, 14 now. It was great not to be ripped off, as I would have been if I had taken her to the main dealer. She has been well looked after by Luke and Paul and after her full service and "decoking" runs like a breath of fresh air. Also sorted out the cable to the fuel cap as it wouldn't release the flap and advised me that the rad cap had perished, so I bought one. Looking forward to continued 5* performance in 2015. Thank you.
Mrs Burks
Good front desk service, work always done on time, and very helpful if any problems, with ideas to solve them without spending too much. I'm a regular customer as a result.

As a female driver I found some garages can make you feel patronised, the manager in Halfords Kettering is brilliant, my car needed a tyre following the fantastic 'free check service' they never tell you need unnecessary work which is very reassuring as I have had horrendous bills in the past... Halfords is great value for money, you drive away with total confidence that the work has been carried out to a great standard.
Mrs Newman
very helpful in all aspects
Mrs Garratt
MOT delivered on time and with a smile!
Mr Woodford
What's not to like. Gave me some advisories - let me make my own decision on what to do. I take my car here every year. Just one little thing - this year a headlight needed adjusting to make it slightly higher. �12 seemed rather excessive for just tightening some screws.
Mr House
I have always been given polite, informed and helpful service from the Kettering centre.
Mrs Betts
No messing about dropped the clear off at the time stated the mot was completed in the time I was told .brilliant customer service .
Mr Parsons
It's always daunting using a garage for the first time but when I went to the Kettering Halfords I felt immediately at ease and like I would be in good hands. Paul the manager was very thorough and informative and I would have no qualms about recommending them.
Miss Hill
I had pre booked on-line for a MOT. When I arrived there was adequate parking available. I was greeted and welcomed by a friendly and informative employee who dealt with me effectively and quickly. The MOT started at the time booked and completed within the advertised time scale. There was adequate seating for me to wait. On completion of the MOT the customer service guy explained any issues and provided me with a quotation for the works. But I felt under no pressure to accept, indeed I went away to think about it as the work was needed to pass the MOT. Great Value for Money.
Mr Lovell
The online booking system works really well and staff very friendly. However, I have a nagging feeling if all the work (track rod end etc..) was really necessary (for the MOT). Did seriously consider taking the car to another garage just to see if they came to the same conclusion but did not in the end due to time pressure. Next year will definitely go to another garage.
Mr Chotai
�29.95 for the MOT. Cheapest i could find locally.
Mr Brunning
Recently had an MOT which failed, I was kept completely informed before any work was done, detailed information on the problems that were found, customer service was friendly. Only niggle was that the work took longer than I was initially told. Overall, very happy with the service.
Mrs Fellows
Mrs Cuddihy
Just had a major service at my local Halfords Autocentre in Kettering, Northamptonshire on my Jaguar XK8. I then drove up to the Lake District for a few days then across country to Darlington and finally retuned home after about 500 miles trip. No doubt the service improved overall performance since fuel consumption normally averaged around 24 mpg but since has achieved over 30 mpg.The service was carried out efficiently having taken the car in at 8:30 am and got it back just after 3:00 pm and this included replacing brake pads. All first class!
Robin Seymour
Excellent service, good advice on choices, let me know if a chosen option was not available, and provided alternative
Basil Sharpe
My husband was very pleased with the work done, but when I dropped the car off in the morning the man at the counter was very rude , he also said we need to pay another �20 for oil which I said had been paid for online but he said it wasn't, which was later confirmed it was once he actually looked at the booking form it was a easy online process and work done was great but will not use halfords again due to the rudeness of the staff member at booking
Mrs McKellican
The booking was simple, the price excellent, but I did not get a confirmation email, luckily I had made a note of date and time etc.
Mrs Collins
Booked my car in for retest at 2 pm today(27th of August ) after 2 hours of waiting for phone call and many cups of tea later in cafe's I decided to walk back to garage,what a shock I got when they had not even started on it! I had to sit for another 1 and a half hours for it to actually get done.I come to this garage every year and this is my first complaint ,the reason for the wait I was told they were very busy, I just wished I hadn't of had a 3 and a half hour wait to get brake pads and discs fitted.
Mrs Taylor
Service was very quick and efficient and staff were very friendly. would recomment to anyone.
Tamsyn Alishia Poole
Great service by helpful staff!
Mrs Coleman
I was disappointed I have to pay for half the price for a retest with in 10 days when others I take cars to don't charge! Wont recomend or use after this mot
Mr Halliwell
Took my car in for an mot via the really easy online booking. My car failed its mot but the reasons were clearly explained to me, full breakdown of repair costs was given and they were able to carry out the repairs the next day.
Ms McMahon
I have used Halfords for many years and always found their services good and honest, you know what it?s going to cost with no hidden ?this looks a bit dodgy mate going to cost you xxx?. My cars are not new and privately owned so I like to know up front the full cost before committing, timings are always as stated hence no hesitation in using Halfords in the future.
Mr Wan
They did exactly what they said and identified issues that should have been picked up on a recent MOT
Mr Linden
I know nothing about cars, but the advice and explanation by the counter staff was really good.
Mr Applebaum

There Is Obviously More to This Story About a Cat Mayor
Stubbs, a cat, has been the mayor of a small Alaskan town for 15 years. Apparently, he won the candidacy through write-in votes a decade and a half ago during an election year with particularly unpopular human candidates, and nobody has found either the heart or the brains to challenge his mayorship since. Now, stop the presses. Sun News, which broke this story, does not go into any details about how a Stubbs—an animal—has gone about performing his daily mayoral duties or why anyone thought electing a cat to be mayor seemed like a good idea. When reached for comment, Mayor Stubbs looked lazily at reporters, blinked slowly, and then laid down on top of their feet ...

One of the services we provide our customers is a continuous supply of the highest quality product produced in an economically and environmentally sustainable fashion. To do this, our potatoes need water, land and have optimal plant health. Potatoes take a little more intensive crop management than what most are used to.
June 14, 2016 - Gregg Halverson
What has been responsible for the tremendous productivity of production agriculture that has been documented over the past two centuries? Why has there been such superb continuous innovation that has incubated on the farm? Why has production agriculture grown as measured by nearly every metric during out lifetimes? Why has the ag supply chain continued to improve not only the science, but the art of production agriculture? I would argue that the answers to these questions just might be connected to the strength of the this concept we call the "Family Farm".

Flanked by politicos such as former Gov. Ed Rendell and former Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham, Kane denied the ads' contention that she was soft on rape during her time as a prosecutor.
She called on her Republican opponent, Cumberland County District Attorney David Freed, to denounce the spots.

Interview with Silvia B
Last week we wrote about Silvia B's exhibition Stringendo at Ron Mandos gallery in Amsterdam. The show is on till the 2nd of April, so if you haven't seen it yet, make sure not to miss it! Below is our interview with the artist about her latest series of sculptures and the inspiration and story behind them. Photos from the opening of Stringendo are here. - Interview with Silvia B ▼
Silvia, when we talked about your new works that are on display at Stringendo, you mentioned that you were "just the maker". Does that imply that there is something such as creativity outside you and you are the messenger?
No, I meant that I may have my reasons to make the works, but what people see might be something completely different. Depending on what people have in their luggage, like films, books, education, culture and so on, they see very different meanings in exactly the same work.
You are showing several large-scale installations, together with some smaller sculptures, that are all flawlessly executed till the tiniest detail. How difficult was this show to produce?
The sculptures do call for quite an amount of work that is in the end invisible. I start from existing second-hand dolls, of which I have the feeling they have potential. I generally saw off their arms, fingers, legs, sometimes even the entire torso, to create the position I have in mind for them. Then I make a timber construction over which I model the body parts back again in an epoxy paste. I usually alter the faces with that paste as well. After a lot of sanding, filling and spray painting, they look like nothing really happened :-) That is when the painting of the skin, the making of the hairdo and the dressing-up starts. For this show I produced twelve sculptures and to work on them all at the same time was quite pleasant as I could chose per day what I felt like doing.
Stringendo is a very personal, almost introspective show. As you mentioned, "the closer the work comes to yourself, the less there is to hide". Did you miss the theatre, the black, the stage-like aspect of your previous series?
The new sculptures did require more probing and searching for what kind of feeling I actually had an urge to express. My previous series, Le CIRQUE, was more familiar to the earlier works, such as the kids with the furry skins, in terms of content and aesthetics. Stringendo is more personal to me, that is why the figures are also more individualised than in previous series. And of course the blackness, the fur, and the melancholy of Le CIRQUE felt much safer to move around in, compared to the bareness of Stringendo. The colour of skin is much more touching, frail and delicate – and also tacky. To me that is where it becomes real interesting actually, because I like to explore that border between good and bad taste. So, no, I didn't miss the safety of the darkness, yet I did feel quite naked myself presenting all this nudity.
The various dolls all have different emotions and personalities. In the show, they are accompanied by sculptures of rats. Is there a link? Should they be viewed individually or is the whole greater than the sum of its parts?
One could say they are all about growth. They are youngsters becoming dancers or at least human beings; they miss body parts, or have wooden body parts, but they are on their way. They struggle with the ropes and strings they hang from, or they are tied to each other. Somehow they are all handicapped. Yet, they appear to be ballerinas – who, for me, symbolise the peak of culture and civilisation, with their dedication to beauty and their extraordinary discipline – which makes their pain and flaws completely irrelevant.
On the other hand, I see rats as complementary beings to civilised man. They live of human garbage, we regard them as the lowest of creatures, but they nevertheless also belong to civilisation. I believe underneath every city there is another city with streets, families and social codes. The rats are after all our favourite test animals, because they are actually more similar to us than we want to admit. By bringing together those two opposite personages and connecting them to each other, and to the walls and ceiling, I tried to reflect on what growing up as a human being means to me. And it was a search for how to allocate these different nuances amongst the sculptures and let them work together in a similar way verses of a poem dance around a subject matter.
Which work did you recently saw and felt that the artist shares your aesthetic, thoughts… ?
I studied fashion at the Academy, but I was never really interested in the clothes of the season, more in the sign of the times. I still think fashion is the first of all media to reflect how we feel towards the greater philosophical questions of, say, religion or nature or science. And I have always had a sixth sense for it. When forecaster Lidewij Edelkoort published her statement about the skin being the new canvas, I launched SKINOVER, my series of skin-coloured gloves with skin-related characteristics. I also recognise simultaneous expressions of reflection with other artists or designers. For example the Dutch designer Marcel Wanders came up with his golden clowns nose while I was making the series Le CIRQUE and Belgian artist Hans Op de Beeck has just released a film with puppets on a string in parallel with my Stringendo show. Timelessness is not a goal.
Strange and Familiar: Britain as Revealed by International Photographers @ Barbican
How foreign photographers saw and depicted Britain from the 1930s till the present day is the subject of a brilliant show curated by Martin Parr that started today at Barbican. Twenty three iconic names, from Robert Frank and Cartier-Bresson to Rineke Dijkstra and Hans Van Der Meer have photographed number of distinct topics: the British society and its notorious class system, Cambridge students, Welsh miners, City bankers, London in the swinging 60s, brutalist estate architecture, country football fields or small fragments of everyday life. From expressive and socially gripping to poetic and humorous perspectives, they all offer incredible insights into both Britain and the photographers' distinctive styles.
See a selection of photos on our Flickr and a short summary for each photographer below.
Strange and Familiar: Britain as Revealed by International Photographers will be in Barbican till June 19th. Must-see!!
Since her arrival in Britain in the 30s, Edith Tudor-Hart (Austrian, 1908-173) used camera as a witness and a political weapon against poverty and unemployment through photographs of the London slum housing, demonstrations, street markets and lives of children.
The father of the "decisive moment" and co-founder of Magnum Agency, Henri Cartier-Bresson (French, 1908-2004) came to Britain to photograph official events, such as the coronations of George VI (1937) and Elizabeth II (1953), Princess Anne's wedding ('73) or the Silver Jubilee ('77). His photos focus on ordinary people and crowds on the streets rather than the main ceremonies.
Robert Frank (Swiss-American, 1924) photographed two very separate worlds in his series London/Wales in the early 50s – one of the London City Bankers and the other of the Welsh coal miners.
A lifelong socialist, Paul Strand's (American, 1890-1976) uses photography as a tool for change. In 1954 he spent three months photographing the harshness of a life in Scotland, portrayed through the struggle of the islanders and its grim landscapes.
Photographer and architect Cas Oorthuys (Dutch, 1908-65) travelled through Europe between 1951-66 , photographing regions and cities for a successful series of travel guides. In Britain, he photographed on London and the university cities of Oxford and Cambridge, depicting landmarks as well as ordinary places and fragments of everyday life.
Sergio Larrain's (Chilean, 1933-2012) poetically expressive photographs of London from 1958-59 show the city from unusual angles and low-level viewpoints, using strong perspective, double exposures and movement.
Evelyn Hoffer (German, 1922-2009) photographed London and Dublin inhabitants in the 60s, using large format camera and detached aesthetic style resembling August Sander's People of the 20th Century series.
Bruce Davidson (American, 1933) / Gian Butturini (Italian, 1935-2006) / Frank Habicht (German, 1938) / Garry Winogrand (American, 1928-84) / Candida Höfer (German, 1944) / Gilles Peress (French, 1946) / Akihiko Okamura (Japanese, 1929-1985) / Hans Eijkelboom (Dutch, 1949) / Bruce Gilden (American, 1946) / Hans van der Meer (Dutch, 1955) / Raymond Depardon (French, 1942) / Rineke Dijkstra (Dutch, 1959) / Tina Barney (American, 1945) / Jim Dow (American, 1942) / Axel Hütte (German, 1951) / Shinro Ohtake (Japanese, 1955)
Stringendo – Silvia B @ Ron Mandos, Amsterdam
Two weeks ago we went to see the opening of our friend Silvia B's exhibition in Amsterdam. Stringendo, her latest series of sculptures, still reveal a fascination with beauty, morbidity, perfection, vulnerability and gender, but leave behind her usual language of dramatic contrasts and stagecraft for a highly personal, emancipated, interpretation. I don't hide anymore the fact that I make dolls, says the artist.‣
A short interview with Silvia B is coming up here, so stay tuned!
Stringendo, together with a young South African artist Mohau Modisakeng's show Endabeni at the adjoining space, will be at Ron Mandos till the 2nd of April. Both shows are amazing and they greatly complement each other – don't miss them!
The World Goes Pop @ Tate Modern
Opening today at Tate Modern: The World Goes Pop, an exhibition presenting less known – or, in many cases, virtually unknown – artworks linked to the Pop Art movement. While formally inspired by the pop aesthetics, the artists exhibited (most of them Eastern European, Asian, Latin American and/or Mid-Eastern) used the easily recognisable visual language in a more critical context. See our photos on Flickr.

Beirutsi - (also BeirutHye) - Lebanese Armenian.
I am Beirutsi. Yes Hyem Yes
by Garro March 08, 2005
Trending Now
Can you define these popular missing words?
Literally meaning "of Beirut" in Armenian. Used by Armenians to identify Lebanese Armenians (mostly displaced due to the Armenian Genocide of 1915). Armenians born elsewhere but whose parents were born in Lebanon consider themselves to also be Beirutsi. Lebanese Armenians typically speak the Western Armenian (Arevm'tahayeren) dialect which has undergone several phonetic mergers; these may be due to proximity to Arabic and Turkish-speaking communities. As a result the Western alphabet has serverl letters that produce the same sound (as opposed to Eastern Armenian which is closer to Classical Armenian or "grabar").
A Beirutsi would replace D's with T's (Door/Toor), B's with P's (Lebanon/Lepanon) and G's with K's (Grigor/Krikor). Arabs have similar difficulty pronouncing these letters, for instance pronouncing Pepsi as "Bebsi."

Amrenians who fled to the Bourj Hammoud refugee camp and Anjar in Beirut, Lebanon after the 1915 genocide. Today Bourj Hammoud has become a vital business hub in beirut, thanks to the perseverance and hard work. Beirutsi Armenian (Beirutahyes) still speak the original unaltered Armenian dialect created by Mesrob Masdotch. The majority of Beirutis do not approve of the Hayastan government or way of life today because it is considered more communist Russian than Armenian.

mkisofs, mount, md5sum
Before you burn a data CD in Linux, you need an ISO image – mkisofs
helps you create an Iso image. To save disks, you might like to check
the image before you burn it with md5sum.
CDs and disk partitions use different
filesystems. Whereas Linux
may use the Ext3 or ReiserFS format
for partitions, CDs use the ISO9660
filesystem. It doesn't make much sense
to burn a partition block by block onto a
CD. Instead, you will need to run the
mkisofs tool first to create an ISO9660
filesystem where you can store the
required files. Having done so, you can
burn the "ISO image" onto disk using
the cdrecord tool.
This issue of Command Line takes an
in-depth look at command line tools for
burning and verifying CD images.

WACO - In one split second between the floor and the backboard, Andy Ellis jumped and did something amazing.
After beating Baylor Saturday, 91-89, that's what his coach called it at least.
"It just amazed me," Texas Tech head coach Bob Knight said. "The play that Andy made today is the best play I've ever had a kid make at the end of the game."
His put-back dunk won the game for Tech with 0.9 seconds left, ending a storybook regular-season for the Red Raiders with a 21-8 record overall, including 10-6 in the Big 12 Conference.
Ellis, Tech's senior center, converted his team's last three buckets of the game - a post-up jumper, a 3-point shot and the follow-through dunk at the end to cap his team's second-half comeback at the Ferrell Center.
The win, Tech's fifth in the last six games, now puts the Raiders in position for prime seeding in this week's Big 12 Tournament in Kansas City, depending on the outcome of the other basketball games Saturday night in the Big 12.
Credit Ellis for the mini-miracle when all seemed lost at times for Tech. After running the length of the floor in the final six seconds, he slammed home a missed layup by Ronald Ross just before the final buzzer. The near-sellout crowd (9,878) watched in near disbelief.
"When (Ross) went in and didn't dunk the ball, I won't tell you what all I said, but it just amazed me that all of a sudden the ball's been dunked on the follow-through," Knight said. "I mean that was a great play."
Some might write it off as a fairy tale storyline for Ellis, who was playing the last stretch of his last regular-season game in a Red Raider uniform. He finished with a game-high 28 points and 10 rebounds, good for his fifth double-double of the season.
"I was thinking, `I hope (Ross) makes it, but I was going to chase it anyway, and it happened to come off right to me." Ellis said. "I was just running. I just took off running when I saw that Kasib (Powell) had it off the rebound, and he threw it to Ron. I was just going to run and hopefully be there to congratulate Ron when he laid it in. I guess he wanted me to finish it." For Ellis, the sequence began two possessions earlier, when his post-up move gave Tech its first lead of the second half at 86-85.
Baylor then came down the floor to get a put-back bucket from freshman forward Lawrence Roberts. His basket put the Bears up 87-86 with two minutes, 17 seconds remaining.
Ellis answered this time with more of his versatile skills. From the right wing, he canned a wide-open 3-pointer over the Baylor zone to give Tech the edge, 89-87.
What happened next was "crucial" and frustrating for Knight, but only for a minute or so.
After the game, he called them "two crucial errors." The first came courtesy of Bears center R.T. Guinn, who got the put-back field goal when Tech failed to block out on a missed 3-pointer from freshman guard John Lucas.

What numbers reveal and hide
By Michael O'Sullivan
Friday, October 1, 2010
Here's a stumper for authors Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, the geniuses behind the 2005 best-seller "Freakonomics," which mined strange correspondences and uncanny connections out of the damnedest, most seemingly unrelated things (more widely available abortion and the falling crime rate, for instance):
Even if you've never read the book, why does the new documentary based on it feel so . . . familiar?
Maybe it's because of all those cocktail-party conversations the book inspired. At this point, who in Washington doesn't feel like they've read it? Or maybe it was all those New York Times Sunday magazine articles the authors penned under the "Freakonomics" banner. They certainly helped make the term -- which describes a new way of looking at the world and the sometimes unexpected way things work -- a household word.
Maybe, just maybe, it's because the movie isn't freakin' freaky enough.
It certainly comes with a pedigree. The omnibus documentary is a compendium of four "chapters," each based on a section of the book and each directed by a different hotshot documentarian. In "A Roshanda by Any Other Name," Morgan Spurlock ("Super Size Me") looks at the economic impact of "black" vs. "white" names. In "Pure Corruption," Alex Gibney ("Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room") examines cheating in the world of Japanese sumo wrestling. In "It's Not Always a Wonderful Life," Eugene Jarecki ("Why We Fight") plumbs the aforementioned connection between abortion and crime. And finally, in "Can a Ninth Grader Be Bribed to Succeed?" Rachel Grady and Heidi Ewing ("Jesus Camp") ask whether -- well, the title of that last one is kind of self-explanatory.
That could be part of the problem.
There's a certain obviousness to the movie that blunts some points made by Levitt and Dubner, who appear between segments in lively interviews. Take, for example, the revelation, in Spurlock's generally bouncy installment, that the same résumé, sent out once under the name Tyrone -- and again under another stereotypically white-sounding name -- would generate fewer call-backs. The fact that such prejudice still exists, even in this supposedly post-racial age, is disturbing but hardly a bombshell. Nor is cheating among sumo athletes, at least to American ears, which have become inured to hearing about such sporting scandals. The most interesting thing about that segment, which plays like an episode of "60 Minutes" or "20/20," is the statistical analysis that led to the conclusion that cheating among Japanese wrestlers was rampant.
But perhaps the freakiest of the "Freakonomics" chapters is the one drawing a link between the legalization of abortion in America and the attendant drop in crime. It's controversial -- oh my, yes -- which makes it most deserving of the movie's title, whether you agree with the premise or not. Yet in the movie at least , the hypothesis that fewer unwanted children naturally equates to fewer criminals seems hardly as "unimpeached" as Jarecki's segment calls it.
As for the final installment, it asks a provocative question: Can the incentive of cold, hard cash induce high-schoolers to hit the books? The film follows two kids in a Chicago cash-for-grades program. One improves his report card, and the other, um, doesn't. In a movie, such anecdotal storytelling may make for better drama, but it doesn't really make the authors' point, let alone answer their own question.
In the end, we see Levitt -- he's an economist, Dubner a journalist -- wondering aloud whether the experiment might work better if they started the carrot-and-stick approach earlier, say, in elementary school. Yeah, maybe. Get back to us when you find out.
Contains obscenity and scenes in a strip club. In English and some Japanese with English subtitles.

The studies of Van Slyke and his associates1 have established on a firm foundation the relation between the concentration of urea in the blood and that in the urine of normal persons under a variety of conditions. As a result of these and of similar investigations, it is generally recognized that the urea clearance test is perhaps the most reliable method available for the quantitative estimation of renal functional efficiency. Certain factors have been shown to affect the rate of removal of urea from the blood of normal persons. As demonstrated by Addis and Drury,2 MacKay3 and Van Slyke, Alving and Rose,4 severe exercise may diminish urea clearance somewhat, presumably by diverting an unduly large proportion of blood to muscular tissues, with a resulting diminution in the renal circulation. Moderate exercise, however, as shown by Van Slyke, Alvin and Rose 4 and by Bruger and Mosenthal,
