The invasion of Judea. (1-8) The justice of God's proceedings. (9-17) All methods used to amend them had been without success. (18-30)
Verses 1-8 Whatever methods are used, it is vain to contend with God's judgments. The more we indulge in the pleasures of this life, the more we unfit ourselves for the troubles of this life. The Chaldean army shall break in upon the land of Judah, and in a little time devour all. The day is coming, when those careless and secure in sinful ways will be visited. It is folly to trifle when we have eternal salvation to work out, and the enemies of that salvation to fight against. But they were thus eager, not that they might fulfil God's counsels, but that they might fill their own treasures; yet God thereby served his own purposes. The corrupt heart of man, in its natural state, casts out evil thoughts, just as a fountain casts out her waters. It is always flowing, yet always full. The God of mercy is loth to depart even from a provoking people, and is earnest with them, that by repentance and reformation, they may prevent things from coming to extremity.
Verses 9-17 When the Lord arises to take vengeance, no sinners of any age or rank, or of either sex escape. They were set upon the world, and wholly carried away by the love of it. If we judge of this sin by God's word, we find multitudes in every station and rank given up to it. Those are to be reckoned our worst and most dangerous enemies, who flatter us in a sinful way. Oh that men would be wise for their souls! Ask for the old paths; the way of godliness and righteousness has always been the way God has owned and blessed. Ask for the old paths set forth by the written word of God. When you have found the good way, go on in it, you will find abundant recompence at your journey's end. But if men will not obey the voice of God and flee to his appointed Refuge, it will plainly appear at the day of judgment, that they are ruined because they reject God's word.
Verses 18-30 God rejects their outward services, as worthless to atone for their sins. Sacrifice and incense were to direct them to a Mediator; but when offered to purchase a license to go on in sin, they provoke God. The sins of God's professing people make them an easy prey to their enemies. They dare not show themselves. Saints may rejoice in hope of God's mercies, though they see them only in the promise: sinners must mourn for fear of God's judgments, though they see them only in the threatenings. They are the worst of revolters, and are all corrupters. Sinners soon become tempters. They are compared to ore supposed to have good metal in it, but which proves all dross. Nothing will prevail to part between them and their sins. Reprobate silver shall they be called, useless and worthless. When warnings, corrections, rebukes, and all means of grace, leave men unrenewed, they will be left, as rejected of God, to everlasting misery. Let us pray, then, that we may be refined by the Lord, as silver is refined.
Jeremiah 6:1-30 . ZION'S FOES PREPARE WAR AGAINST HER: HER SINS ARE THE CAUSE.
1. Benjamin--Jerusalem was situated in the tribe of Benjamin, which was here separated from that of Judah by the valley of Hinnom. Though it was inhabited partly by Benjamites, partly by men of Judah, he addresses the former as being his own countrymen.
blow . . . trumpet . . . Tekoa--Tikehu, Tekoa form a play on sounds. The birthplace of Amos.
Beth-haccerem--meaning in Hebrew, "vineyard-house." It and Tekoa were a few miles south of Jerusalem. As the enemy came from the north, the inhabitants of the surrounding country would naturally flee southwards. The fire-signal on the hills gave warning of danger approaching.
2. likened--rather, "I lay waste." Literally, "O comely and delicate one, I lay waste the daughter of Zion," that is, "thee." So Zechariah 3:9 , "before Joshua," that is, "before thee" [MAURER].
3. shepherds--hostile leaders with their armies ( Jeremiah 1:15 , 4:17 , 49:20 , 50:45 ).
feed--They shall consume each one all that is near him; literally, "his hand," that is, the place which he occupies ( Numbers 2:17 ;
4, 5. The invading soldiers encourage one another to the attack on Jerusalem.
Prepare--literally, "Sanctify" war, that is, Proclaim it formally with solemn rites; the invasion was solemnly ordered by God (compare Isaiah 13:3 ).
at noon--the hottest part of the day when attacks were rarely made ( Jeremiah 15:8 , 20:16 ). Even at this time they wished to attack, such is their eagerness.
Woe unto us--The words of the invaders, mourning the approach of night which would suspend their hostile operations; still, even in spite of the darkness, at night they renew the attack ( Jeremiah 6:5 ).
6. cast--Hebrew, "pour out"; referring to the emptying of the baskets of earth to make the mound, formed of "trees" and earthwork, to overtop the city walls. The "trees" were also used to make warlike engines.
this--pointing the invaders to Jerusalem.
visited--that is, punished.
wholly oppression--or join "wholly" with "visited," that is, she is altogether (in her whole extent) to be punished [MAURER].
7. fountain--rather, a well dug, from which water springs; distinct from a natural spring or fountain.
casteth out--causeth to flow; literally, "causeth to dig," the cause being put for the effect ( 2 Kings 21:16 2 Kings 21:24 , Isaiah 57:20 ).
8. Tender appeal in the midst of threats.
depart--Hebrew, "be torn away"; Jehovah's affection making Him unwilling to depart; His attachment to Jerusalem was such that an effort was needed to tear Himself from it ( Ezekiel 23:18;,Hos 9:12 Ezekiel 23:18;,Hos 9:12 , 11:8 ).
9. The Jews are the grapes, their enemies the unsparing gleaners.
turn back . . . hand--again and again bring freshly gathered handfuls to the baskets; referring to the repeated carrying away of captives to Babylon ( Jeremiah 52:28-30 , 2 Kings 24:14 , 25:11 ).
10. ear is uncircumcised--closed against the precepts of God by the foreskin of carnality ( Leviticus 26:41 , Ezekiel 44:7 , Acts 7:51 ).
word . . . reproach--( Jeremiah 20:8 ).
11. fury of . . . Lord--His denunciations against Judah communicated to the prophet.
weary with holding in--( Jeremiah 20:9 ).
I will pour--or else imperative: the command of God (see Jeremiah 6:12 ), "Pour it out" [MAURER].
aged . . . full of days--The former means one becoming old; the latter a decrepit old man [MAURER] ( Job 5:26 , Isaiah 65:20 ).
12. The very punishments threatened by Moses in the event of disobedience to God ( Deuteronomy 28:30 ).
13. ( Jeremiah 8:10 , Isaiah 56:11 , Micah 3:11 ).
14. hurt--the spiritual wound.
slightly--as if it were but a slight wound; or, in a slight manner, pronouncing all sound where there is no soundness.
saying--namely, the prophets and priests ( Jeremiah 6:13 ). Whereas they ought to warn the people of impending judgments and the need of repentance, they say there is nothing to fear.
peace--including soundness. All is sound in the nation's moral state, so all will be peace as to its political state ( Jeremiah 4:10 , 8:11 , 14:13 , 23:17 , Ezekiel 13:5 Ezekiel 13:10 , 22:28 ).
15. ROSENMULLER translates, "They ought to have been ashamed, because . . . but," &c.; the Hebrew verb often expressing, not the action, but the duty to perform it ( Genesis 20:9 , Malachi 2:7 ). MAURER translates, "They shall be put to shame, for they commit abomination; nay (the prophet correcting himself), there is no shame in them" ( Jeremiah 3:3 , 8:12 , Ezekiel 3:7 , Zephaniah 3:5 ).
them that fall--They shall fall with the rest of their people who are doomed to fall, that is, I will now cease from words; I will execute vengeance [CALVIN].
16. Image from travellers who have lost their road, stopping and inquiring which is the right way on which they once had been, but from which they have wandered.
old paths--Idolatry and apostasy are the modern way; the worship of God the old way. Evil is not coeval with good, but a modern degeneracy from good. The forsaking of God is not, in a true sense, a "way cast up" at all ( Jeremiah 18:15 , Psalms 139:24 , Malachi 4:4 ).
rest--( Isaiah 28:12 , Matthew 11:29 ).
17. watchmen--prophets, whose duty it was to announce impending calamities, so as to lead the people to repentance ( Isaiah 21:11 , 58:1 , Ezekiel 3:17 , Habakkuk 2:1 ).
18. congregation--parallel to "nations"; it therefore means the gathered peoples who are invited to be witnesses as to how great is the perversity of the Israelites ( Jeremiah 6:16 Jeremiah 6:17 ), and that they deserve the severe punishment about to be inflicted on them ( Jeremiah 6:19 ).
what is among them--what deeds are committed by the Israelites ( Jeremiah 6:16 Jeremiah 6:17 ) [MAURER]. Or, "what punishments are about to be inflicted on them" [CALVIN].
19. ( Isaiah 1:2 ).
fruit of . . . thoughts--( Proverbs 1:31 ).
nor to my law, but rejected it--literally, "and (as to) My law they have rejected it." The same construction occurs in Genesis 22:24 . Literally, "To what purpose is this to Me, that incense cometh to Me?"
incense . . . cane--( Isaiah 43:24 , 60:6 ). No external services are accepted by God without obedience of the heart and life ( Jeremiah 7:21 , Psalms 50:7-9 , Isaiah 1:11 , Micah 6:6 , &c.).
sweet . . . sweet--antithesis. Your sweet cane is not sweet to Me. The calamus.
21. stumbling-blocks--instruments of the Jews' ruin (compare Matthew 21:44 , Isaiah 8:14 , 1 Peter 2:8 ). God Himself ("I") lays them before the reprobate ( Psalms 69:22 , Romans 1:28 , 11:9 ).
fathers . . . sons . . . neighbour . . . friend--indiscriminate ruin.
22. north . . . sides of the earth--The ancients were little acquainted with the north; therefore it is called the remotest regions (as the Hebrew for "sides" ought to be translated, of the earth. The Chaldees are meant ( Jeremiah 1:15 , 5:15 ). It is striking that the very same calamities which the Chaldeans had inflicted on Zion are threatened as the retribution to be dealt in turn to themselves by Jehovah ( Jeremiah 50:41-43 ).
23. like the sea--( Isaiah 5:30 ).
as men for war--not that they were like warriors, for they were warriors; but "arrayed most perfectly as warriors" [MAURER].
24. fame thereof--the report of them.
25. He addresses "the daughter of Zion" ( Jeremiah 6:23 ); caution to the citizens of Jerusalem not to expose themselves to the enemy by going outside of the city walls,
sword of the enemy--literally "there is a sword to the enemy"; the enemy hath a sword.
26. wallow . . . in ashes--( Jeremiah 25:34 , Micah 1:10 ). As they usually in mourning only "cast ashes on the head," wallowing in them means something more, namely, so entirely to cover one's self with ashes as to be like one who had rolled in them ( Ezekiel 27:30 ).
as for an only son--( Amos 8:10 , Zechariah 12:10 ).
lamentation--literally, "lamentation expressed by beating the breast."
27. tower . . . fortress--( Jeremiah 1:18 ), rather, "an assayer (and) explorer." By a metaphor from metallurgy in Jeremiah 6:27-30 , Jehovah, in conclusion, confirms the prophet in his office, and the latter sums up the description of the reprobate people on whom he had to work. The Hebrew for "assayer" (English Version, "tower") is from a root "to try" metals. "Explorer" (English Version, "fortress") is from an Arabic root, "keen-sighted"; or a Hebrew root, "cutting," that is, separating the metal from the dross [EWALD]. GESENIUS translates as English Version, "fortress," which does not accord with the previous "assayer."
28. grievous revolters--literally "contumacious of the contumacious," that is, most contumacious, the Hebrew mode of expressing a superlative. So "the strong among the mighty," that is, the strongest ( Ezekiel 32:21 ). See Jeremiah 5:23 , Hosea 4:16 .
walking with slanders--( Jeremiah 9:4 ). "Going about for the purpose of slandering" [MAURER].
brass, &c.--that is, copper. It and "iron" being the baser and harder metals express the debased and obdurate character of the Jews ( Isaiah 48:4 , 60:17 ).
29. bellows . . . burned--So intense a heat is made that the very bellows are almost set on fire. ROSENMULLER translates not so well from a Hebrew root, "pant" or "snort," referring to the sound of the bellows blown hard.
lead--employed to separate the baser metal from the silver, as quicksilver is now used. In other words, the utmost pains have been used to purify Israel in the furnace of affliction, but in vain ( Jeremiah 5:3 , 1 Peter 1:7 ).
consumed of the fire--In the Chetib, or Hebrew text, the "consumed" is supplied out of the previous "burned." Translating as ROSENMULLER, "pant," this will be inadmissible; and the Keri (Hebrew Margin) division of the Hebrew words will have to be read, to get "is consumed of the fire." This is an argument for the translation, "are burned."
founder--the refiner.
wicked . . . not plucked away--answering to the dross which has no good metal to be separated, the mass being all dross.
30. Reprobate--silver so full of alloy as to be utterly worthless ( Isaiah 1:22 ). The Jews were fit only for rejection.

I've received a number of calls and emails from people indicating they're looking for a new therapist because they're disappointed in the work with their current therapist. My first question is usually, "What were you hoping would happen when you began your work with them?" To which many reply, "That I would get better. I thought they would understand me." Therein lies the beginning of disspointment.
Let's begin with a hard truth you may not be ready to hear: You have issues. It may help ease the blow to know that we ALL have issues. In fact, I believe there is probably one truly neurotic person in the city of Chicago whereas the rest of us struggle with our emotions and childhood to some significant degree. When it comes to feeling disappointment, the desire to feel understood is at the top of the 'emotional struggle' list.
How does this relate to having a disappointing therapist? Well, no one can make us feel anything that is not already there. They can only stir up what has already been experienced: sadness, joy, excitement, anger, fear, disappointment, betrayal, shame, powerlessness, et cetera. The only thing people, including therapists, can often unknowingly do, is stir them up … again. The behavior, responses, comments or facial expressions of others often trigger certain experiences that in turn flood us with certain emotions.
Now before you click off this page, hear me out. Some therapists are absolutely disappointing – even the good ones. The disappointment can be the result of lack of experience, training, interest or burn out. This is why you have to be selective in how you choose a therapist. (I'll write another blog on that later). The point I want to make is that disappointments with your therapist are actually part of the work and present an opportunity for you to work through unresolved issues.
The key to transforming your disappointment in your therapist into growth and healing is for you to tell them how you feel about your work and why. It may seem like a no brainer but it really is that simple. How your therapist responds to your disclosure can either deepen your disappointment or instill hope and relief. If you feel the disappointment continue over time then it may be time to talk with your therapist about whether or not they feel they are able to help you get through this impasse. Sometimes it has less to do with whether a therapist is good or not but whether the work has run its course, your needs have evolved, or the fit is no longer there.
As always, best wishes to those who are brave enough to begin their journey to emotional health and wellness!

Kelly steamrolls in 2nd District; vows to 'take on NRA'
BY NATASHA KORECKI AND MITCH DUDEK Sun-Times Media April 9, 2013 11:29PM
Robin Kelly checks her speech Tuesday night in her hotel room before her victory celebration in the 2nd Congressional District contest. | Scott Stewart~Sun-Times

Updated: May 11, 2013 6:49AM
Democrat Robin Kelly breezed to victory Tuesday night, officially setting the stage for a new chapter in the scandal-ridden 2nd Congressional District that was represented for nearly two decades by the disgraced Jesse Jackson Jr.
Kelly, 56, of Matteson, easily won over a weak Republican opponent and four other candidates in the heavily Democratic district that stretches from Chicago's South Side through Will County to Kankakee County.
She immediately vowed to continue the fight for gun control — an issue that helped catapult her to victory in the Feb. 26 special primary election that was the key election.
The outcome Tuesday quickly became apparent. Early returns showed precincts from the Chicago portion of the district, where the great majority of its population is, giving her 90 percent of the vote against Republican Paul McKinley, a felon.
With 248 of 263 precincts reporting, Kelly was leading McKinley with 79 percent of the vote to 14 percent.
Kelly gave her victory speech with the parents of the Hadiya Pendleton behind her. Hadiya, a 15-year-old Chicago student slain earlier this year, has become a national symbol of the toll of gun violence.
As Kelly spoke, a montage of news clips and campaign videos play on a jumbo screen behind the podium.
Tuesday's election was required after Jackson resigned from office in November. He had been away from Congress since mid-June, while being treated for depression related to bipolar disorder, but won re-election Nov. 6 despite not campaigning.
He resigned two weeks later, was indicted and pleaded guilty in February to federal conspiracy and fraud charges for using about $750,000 in campaign money for personal expenses over several years.
Kelly surfaced as the strongest candidate, emphasizing gun control as a major issue in the district and attracting the interest of New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. His superPAC, Independence USA, poured $2.2 million into assisting her campaign, attacking other candidates in TV commercials.
Kelly didn't forget that history on Election Night.
"To those who say that we won't be able to make Congress do anything on gun control, who think this Tea Party Congress can't be beaten, I've got two words: Watch us," she told her supporters. "Watch us beat the odds again. Watch us take on the NRA, the Tea Party and anyone else standing in the way of our safety."
Minutes before the polls closed Tuesday, McKinley, 54, insisted he was likely to win the race. He dismissed the notion that Kelly was heavily favored.
"I have a 51 percent chance to win this election," he said, attributing that figure to "my studies and talking to different people."
McKinley squeaked through the GOP primary, winning over several opponents. He ran on a platform of redemption, having served time in prison for robbery and assault.

The Great Wall is a symbol of Chinese civilization, and one of the wonders that the Chinese people have created. It stretches 6,700 km (4,160 miles) across deserts, grasslands, mountains and plateaus. The Badaling section of the Great Wall, the most representative part, was promoted as a key national cultural relic, protected under the approval of the State Council in 1961. In 1988, it was enlisted in the World Cultural Heritage Directory by UNESCO. July 7, 2007 has once again witnessed the worldwide reputation that the Great Wall gained: it was listed among the New Seven Wonders of the World.
After uniting China in 221 BC, the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, ordered the building of the wall to connect the existing fortifications along China's northern border to protect the country against intrusions by the nomadic tribes from the north.
Badaling Great Wall is situated in Yanqing County, over 70 kilometers (43 miles) north of Beijing. It is the most well-preserved section of the Great Wall, built during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). This section with an average altitude of over 1,000 meters (3,282 feet) is the outpost of the Juyongguan Pass. The mountain slope is very steep and the roads are tortuous. These features made it a military stronghold. Badaling Great Wall is like a strong dragon winding its way along the mountain ranges.Helicopter service at The Great Wall Badaling Section is now available! This will be an unforgettable travel experience. The tour begins at the Badaling Heliport which is 10 to 15 minutes drive from The Badaling Great Wall Entrance. The service is provided by Capital Helicopter Company and the whole ride will be around 15 minutes. After take off, guests will find Badaling Great Wall right beneath them and the flight across the mountain range gives a bird's-eye view of the best preserved section of this 8,000 kilometers long structure. The price of the helicopter service listed as below (insurance included) Person 1 2 3 4 Price RMB 2,200 RMB 3,400 RMB 4,800 RMB 6,000 Please note: 1) Reservation for 1 or 2 travelers will share a helicopter with other travelers, for 3 or 4 traveler will have the privilege of a private helicopter flight.

People say that the real culture of Beijing is "the culture of hutong" and "the culture of courtyard". How true that is. Often, it is Beijing's winding hutongs that attract tourists from home and abroad rather than the high-rise buildings and large mansions.
Hutong is a typical lane or small street in Beijing that originated during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). "Hutong" is a Mongolian word, meaning "water well". During that time, water well is the settlement around which people lived. There are tens of thousands of hutongs surrounding the Forbidden City. In the past, Beijing was composed of countless courtyards. Hutongs were formed when people left a passageway between two courtyards to make entering them more convenient.
As the symbol of Beijing City, a hutong has its own layout and structure, which makes it a wonder in the world. When taking a bird's eye view of Beijing, you will find the combination of hutongs and courtyards just like an orderly chessboard with delicate gardens, fine rockeries, and ancient ruins. Hutongs have witnessed the development of Beijing. Where there is a hutong, there is a story.
On Friday 8 August 2008 the opening ceremony of the 29th Olympiad was held at The Beijing National Stadium, also known as the 'Bird's Nest'. It has a capacity of 80,000 seats for the games. The unique architecture and design of the building has made it an iconic focal point for Beijing. The circular shape of the stadium's bowl was defined using computer software developed by Arup to allow spectators to have the optimum view.
The blue-colored National Aquatics Center (NAC), nicknamed the "Water Cube" was inaugurated and delivered for use on the morning of January 28, 2008. It took over four years to construct the Olympic venue, which is a new landmark in Beijing. The "Water Cube" was designed with water-saving and environmental effort; the venue can save 140,000 tons of recycled water a year
The Temple of Heaven is a worthwhile visiting place in Beijing. It is much bigger than the Forbidden City and smaller than the Summer Palace with an area of about 2,700,000 square meters. The Temple was built in 1420 A.D. during the Ming Dynasty to offer sacrifice to Heaven. As Chinese emperors called themselves 'The Son of Heaven, they dared not to build their own dwelling, 'Forbidden City' bigger than a dwelling for Heaven.
The Temple of Heaven is enclosed with a long wall. The northern part within the wall is semicircular symbolizing the heavens and the southern part is square symbolizing the earth. The northern part is higher than the southern part. This design shows that the heaven is high and the earth is low and the design reflected an ancient Chinese thought of 'The heaven is round and the earth is square'.
Situated in the western outskirts of Haidian District, the Summer Palace is 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) from central Beijing. Having the largest royal park and being well preserved, it was designated, in 1960 by the State Council, as a Key Cultural Relics Protection Site of China. Containing examples of the ancient arts, it also has graceful landscapes and magnificent constructions. The Summer Palace is the archetypal Chinese garden, and is ranked amongst the most noted and classical gardens of the world. In 1998, it was listed as one of the World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.
Constructed in the Jin Dynasty (1115-1234), during the succeeding reign of feudal emperors; it was extended continuously. By the time of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), it had become a luxurious royal garden providing royal families with rest and entertainment. Originally called 'Qingyi Garden' (Garden of Clear Ripples), it was know as one of the famous 'three hills and five gardens' (Longevity Hill, Jade Spring Mountain, and Fragrant Hill; Garden of Clear Ripples, Garden of Everlasting Spring, Garden of Perfection and Brightness, Garden of Tranquility and Brightness, and Garden of Tranquility and Pleasure). Like most of the gardens of Beijing, it could not elude the rampages of the Anglo-French allied force and was destroyed by fire. In 1888, Empress Dowager Cixi embezzled navy funds to reconstruct it for her own benefit, changing its name to Summer Palace (Yiheyuan). She spent most of her later years there, dealing with state affairs and entertaining. In 1900, it suffered again, being ransacked by the Eight-Power Allied Force. After the success of the 1911 Revolution, it was opened to the public.
On 19 March 2005, Beijing Silk Street High-rise, which draws lots of attentions, is open for business officially. After more than 20 years development, the two characters "Xiu Shui" have become a famous brand among the sphere of commodity circulation in Beijing. The Silk Street High-rise is tightly near CBD, the total floorage amount to 28,000 square meters, and there are 1,500 stalls in the market. Commodities mainly sold in Silk Street are shoes, bags and cases, leather, famous brand, casual wear, fashion clothing, cowboy series, sports leisure attire, knitted dress, kid's clothing, tie, silk handkerchief, silk wax printing, craft table cloth, handicraft, jewelry, antique, calligraphy and painting, Beijing roast duck and characteristic snack, etc.

Usually a place to see mainstream blockbusters, the AMC River East 21 will have more subtitles than fireballs for the next two weeks.
As the site of the Chicago International Film Festival, the multiplex will screen the sort of fare usually seen at the Gene Siskel Film Center, Facets Cinematheque, Landmark Century and the Music Box.
New directors distinguish this year's lineup of 135 features and 55 shorts. Auspicious first-time filmmakers outnumber known auteurs such as Jiri Menzel, Nanni Moretti, Jafar Panahi, Tsai Ming-Liang and Andrzej Wajda.
The opening night gala on Thursday at the Chicago Theatre is dedicated to Roger Ebert, the late Chicago Sun-Times film critic. VIP tickets for $150 include a red-carpet screening of James Gray's "The Immigrant," followed by a reception at the Chicago Cultural Center.
Viewers will get early looks at studio titles including "12 Years a Slave," "August: Osage County," "The Fifth Estate," "The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete," "Nebraska," and "Inside Llewyn Davis." These Oscar-oriented dramas with star casts open in the months to come.
Documentaries are represented by noted directors including Claude Lanzmann ("The Last of the Unjust"), Frederick Wiseman ("At Berkeley") and Errol Morris ("The Unknown Known"). Morris' portrait of former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld is dedicated to Ebert.
Funny films old and new are part of a new Comedy Focus section. "That came from surveys from the audience: 'Couldn't you get some comedies besides all your deadly serious downer films?' " said Michael Kutza, founder and artistic director of the festival. "They've been saying it for years. We're finally listening."
Representing women is a recurring issue in films about African-American novelist Alice Walker, Roma poet Papusza in Poland, Miss World of 1998 from Israel, advocates for Muslim women's rights, a Canadian woman painting women killed by a serial killer, and show gal Elaine Stritch celebrating her 87th birthday. Also on screen are Zoe Bell, Judi Dench, Jennifer Hudson, Isabelle Huppert, Amy Morton, Samantha Morton and Meryl Streep.
Based on viewings of dozens of this year's festival offerings, here are 10 worth watching:
"WALESA: MAN OF HOPE" (Poland): Andrzej Wajda reprises his "Man of Marble" and "Man of Iron" to portray a true Polish hero of the people. This valorizing biopic's frame is an interview by Italian journalist Oriana Fallaci that cues flashbacks for the Solidarity leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner. 5:30 p.m. Friday, 2:15 p.m. Sunday, 3:20 p.m. Oct. 16.
"A THOUSAND TIMES GOOD NIGHT" (Norway): Juliette Binoche plays an impassioned photojournalist shooting a female suicide bomber in Kabul. Too close, she is injured and goes home to Ireland. Her daughters and husband endure her near-death calling. Erik Poppe explores the wrenching contradictions of a career woman in peril. 3 p.m. Saturday, 8:15 p.m. Monday, 12:40 p.m. Oct. 16.
"THE MAJOR" (Russia): A cop speeding to the hospital for his wife's risky delivery kills a boy on a highway and there's only one witness. Yury Bykov directs a Dostoyevskian procedural on corruption and conscience. 6:15 p.m. Saturday, 8 p.m. Oct. 15, 11:15 a.m. Oct. 19.
"BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR" (France): This intimate three-hour love story from Abdellatif Kechiche ("Games of Love and Chance") tracks a high school student and an art school student over several years. It's based on Julie Maroh's 2010 graphic novel. She calls the explicitly lit erotics "a brutal and surgical display." This Palme d'Or winner at the Cannes Film Festival got an NC-17 rating. 6:30 p.m. Saturday.
"INFILTRATORS" (Palestine/UAE/Lebanon): West Bank native Khaled Jarrar extends his 2008 photography exhibit about a 26-foot-tall concrete security wall for a lyrical video ethnography on risky routes into Jerusalem. Night and day, Palestinians circumvent this Israeli barrier to find work, sell bread, visit family and get medical treatment. 8:35 p.m. Saturday, 8:20 p.m. Monday.
"LIKE FATHER LIKE SON" (Japan): Kore-eda Hirokazu ("Still Walking" and "After Life") offers an exquisitely sensitive drama about two dads finding out their 6-year-old sons were switched at the hospital. A perfect piano score syncopates the poignant insights on offspring. The wise ending apparently varies from how Japanese families resolve actual cases of switched-at-birth children. 6 p.m. Oct. 16, 7 p.m. Oct. 19.
"THE VERDICT" (Belgium): Opening with a Camus quote about justice, this juridical thriller by Jan Verheyen tests principles of legal equality in a constitutional state. After a procedural error frees the killer of his wife and, indirectly, their young daughter, a white-collar worker exacts a brand justice derided as wild Western. 8:30 p.m. Oct. 16, 8:15 p.m. Oct. 17, 3 p.m. Oct 22.
"LE WEEK-END" (UK): Roger Michell directs Hanif Kureishi's script delving into the marvelously nuanced romance of a British couple played by Lindsay Duncan and Jim Broadbent. On a 30th anniversary jaunt to Paris, they run into a best-selling author from their radical past played by Jeff Goldblum. For a beautiful finale, this trio re-creates a singular dance number by Jean-Luc Godard. 8:30 p.m. Oct. 17, 5:30 p.m. Oct. 19.
"TRAPPED" (Iran): Parviz Shahbazi directs a rich tale of a young Iranian woman scamming her new med school roommate. An out-of-sorts generation in Tehran negotiates prospects for education, entertainment and emigration. 6 p.m. Oct. 19, 8:15 p.m. Oct. 21, 3:30 p.m. Oct 22.
"SOUL" (Taiwan): With entrancing cinematography, Chung Mong-Hong offers a disquieting fable of a young chef who appears to die on the job, but revives with "a wandering soul" in residence with fatal detours. His orchid-raising father attempts a home cure in fog-wreathed mountains. 5:30 p.m. Oct. 21, 8:45 p.m. Oct 22, 1 p.m. Oct. 23.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Norwood, MA (12/14/2011) - NORWOOD, Mass. — Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), a global leader in high-performance semiconductors for signal-processing applications, has expanded its industry-leading isolated interface product portfolio with the first signal-only isolated CAN (controller area network) transceiver to provide an isolation rating to 5 kV rms with 125˚C operation. The fully certified ADM3054 offers isolated power-detect functionality in a highly integrated single surface mount package capable of operating in harsh industrial applications. By reducing PCB component count by as much as 70 percent compared to traditional discrete, optocoupler based component circuits, the new CAN transceiver greatly simplifies design while reducing board space by up to 61 percent.
For more information, visit ADM3054 to download the data sheet or order samples.

The ADM3054 is a 5 kV rms signal-isolated CAN physical layer transceiver that fully complies with the ISO 11898 CAN standard. The new CAN transceiver leverages Analog Devices' highly regarded iCoupler® digital isolator technology and combines a 3-channel digital isolator with a CAN transceiver in a 10 mm x 10 mm single-surface-mount, 16-lead, wide-body SOIC (small-outline IC) package.
The ADM3054 complements ADI's previously released isolated CAN products, the ADM3052 and ADM3053, which provide power isolation in addition to signal isolation. The ADM3054 is targeted at applications where an isolated power rail already exists or an additional overwind from an existing isolation transformer can be used. The device's logic is powered with a single 3.3-V or 5-V supply on VDD1 while the bus side uses a single 5-V supply on VDD2 only. Loss of power on the bus side (VDD2) can be detected by the mico-controller using the integrated VDD2SENSE signal. The transceiver has integrated +/-36V fault protection on the bus pins, CANH and CANL, to guard against shorts to power/ground in 12- V and 24-V systems. The device also has current-limiting and thermal-shutdown features that protect against output short circuits and situations where the bus might be shorted to ground or power terminals.
The ADM3054 creates an isolated interface between the CAN protocol controller and the physical layer bus. It is capable of running at data rates of up to 1 Mbps and is fully specified over the industrial temperature range of −40˚C to +125˚C.

We've all seen celebrities with the famous milk mustaches for the Got Milk? ads, but now Got Milk? is getting serious about doing some good.
And LeAnn Rimes is helping out.
The Got Milk? campaign recently tweeted the above picture along with:
You're a glass away from making a difference. Join @leannrimes support CA afterschool programs. http://bit.ly/NwtAVM pic.twitter.com/pQIrumrK
Those that want to help raise money for some great causes can buy special milk glasses for $15 from the Got Milk? campaign. Here's the full details from the website:
Sale to Raise $50K for State Non-Profits Promoting Health & Nutrition
The California Milk Processor Board (CMPB), the creator of GOT MILK?, announced today the creation of a four-week sale of limited edition milk glasses from Jul. 9 through Aug. 5, 2012 to benefit community-based organizations in the Golden State. THINK Together, the Bay Area Community Resources and the Central Valley Afterschool Foundation, which support afterschool and summer programs for children and their parents to make wholesome, "real" and "simple" food choices for a healthy lifestyle, will work with GOT MILK? to raise $50,000 during the sale.
The glass sale is the extension of GOT MILK?'s latest campaign, 'Science of Imitation Milk', which educates California consumers of the long list of hard-to-pronounce ingredients in imitation milk, contrasting that of the pure, simple nature of dairy milk. The limited edition glasses, which hopes to bring this message home to families while helping a good cause, come two in a set: the real milk glass shows the very short list of ingredients that can be found in dairy milk (milk and vitamin D3) in contrast to the "imitation milk" glass which has a multitude of ingredients that include soy beans, water, zinc gluconate and carrageenan, among others. During the four-week sale, the pair can be purchased on www.gotmilk.com/glasses for $15, which includes shipping and handling, with 100 percent of the purchase going directly to the community organizations to support nutrition education programs in Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco/San Jose and Fresno. The goal of the sale is to raise $10,000 for each area for a total of $50,000.

Oops, I forgot, I watched Dirk Gently, too.
I gave it a try because I'm a Douglas Adams fan.
I really enjoyed it. So fun.
The last episode was great and I generally really liked "The Promise". Made me want to see more of Peter Kosminsky's work. And of Christian Cooke's of course ;-)
I accidentally found out that "Misfits" was premiered here yesterday and I was really excited since I've heard you guys mention it. I'm already hooked and I've only seen the pilot so far. Can't wait for the next episode.
I've developed quite a crush on the "weird" guy Simon - those eyes, wow! On the other hand I just can't stand Nathan - he gets on my every nerve!
Oh, and I've recorded the movie "Magicians" on my DVR and I was wondering if any of you guys have seen "Peep Show" and could recommend it?
Subsonic, I'm really pleased you liked The Promise Sorry, haven't seen Peep Show.
Thatgirl, that's great! So glad you enjoyed them, even the ones I'm not a fan of! I agree about Spooks being addictive. Even though some people over here thought that it flagged in later years I absolutely loved it
I think that's sort of inevitable with shows that have many seasons. lol
Sometimes the quality does decline, other times a show over stays it's welcome and fans get bored even if it's still just as good as ever.
LMAO. I think Nathan is great but I agree he's highly annoying.
Misfits is awesome though.
I think a few people already recommended it.
It's REALLY REALLY funny. But mostly in that second-hand embarassment kind of way.
If you like AWKWARD comedy, then you'll probably enjoy it. It does that brilliantly.
Trollied is a really great show, if you get a chance to watch it.
Jane Horrocks is fantastic!!
For all sad words of tongue and pen,
The saddest are these, 'It might have been.'
^ Thanks! Watched the first 3 episodes. It's not incredibly funny or anything but it's an interesting concept and I find the characters really endearing. Perhaps it's not meant to be a straight-forward comedy and I'm reading it wrong. lol I think I'll keep watching it for now. ^_^
The only other British comedy I'm watching at the moment is Bottom. I hadn't heard of it before (it's kind of old and obscure ? or maybe it's just me) but I'm enjoying it. It's so ridiculous.
Haven't had time to watch a lot of shows the last few months. From what I've seen...
I really loved Spy. Seriously, it's so charming and hilarious. I'm happy that there will be a second, longer series of it. Amazing.
Sinbad is a lot of fun if you like family-friendly adventure/fantasy shows like Merlin and Doctor. I'm loving it so far. And the lead is gorgeous.
Line of Duty was pretty badass, too. Reminds me of Shadow Line. The cast is fabulous in this, tbh. There will be a second series of it, apparently it did very well in the ratings.
I saw a trailer for Hunted yesterday which is about a British, female spy (Melissa George) from the creator of Spooks. Looks pretty good!
Thatgirl, welcome back, it's really good to see you. You've been missed
I didn't enjoy Line of Duty as much as I did The Shadow Line, but I think that the Beeb set the bar so high with that wonderful show that all programmes since then have a tough act to follow. That's just my personal opinion though.
We're coming into a new season of dramas here, so there should hopefully be a few more good recommendations before too long. One that has just started last week is called Accused. This is actually the second series (I can't recall if this show has been mentioned previously?) Each episode is a stand-alone story and begins with someone on trial. Thereafter we see their story and the outcome of the trial. The first episode has Sean Bean in it and you can see glimpses of him in this trailer
It does look good. Also, it totally reminds me of Nikkita which is pretty cool.
Hey, redfox! You're sweet.
I totally agree. I felt like TSL was much more complex and nuanced. Line of Duty was still very interesting to watch though mainly because I enjoyed the actors. I think Line of Duty was made to appeal more to a wider audience so it wasn't as heavy/dark/complex.
I've been meaning to check out Accused S2. It's Sean Bean in drag and Robert Sheehan. Yay. If I like it, I'll go back to watch S1. The lead actors are all top-notch in this series, it seems.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to many of the new shows. I saw the trailers from BBC One & BBC Two.
Good Cop and Ripper Street have piqued my interest, in particular. Also I'm interested in The Fall and Top of the Lake.
Can't wait to check out the new shows.
Just telling it like it is
Very well articulated, as usual
It's also created and mostly written by one of Britain's best - and one of my favourite - screen writers, the wonderful Jimmy McGovern. His work is often very powerful and rarely disappoints.
I'll be watching Good Cop with great interest when that is shown as it was filmed and set in Liverpool. I hope the storyline is good enough to stop me from place-spotting!
I'm from England and have hardly seen/heard of these newer shows. I think it's because I can't be bothered to sift through the crap to find the good stuff!
I will give another vote for the first clip posted in the original post - Black Mirror. I didn't see the first episode but the last two were very good, especially 15 million merits. But then, anything with Charlie Brooker involved is bound to be genius.
I watch Misfits, used to watch Shamless, Downton Abbey and Big Brother UK sometimes. I'm watching Celebrity Big Brother UK right now. The British version is much more fun to watch than the US verson because on the US version, all they talk about is strategy and playing the game.
I used to watch Sinchronicity, As If, and Mile High.
Now the only UK show I watch is Coronation Street...
Regrets are for people who stop on the ground.
I'm heading for the stars.
Him & Her (TV Series 2010) - IMDb
this is a good one as well HIM&HER
There was a great British show on last night about midwives during WWII. It had Miranda Hart in it (or at least the second episode will).
Great show!
Wow, so many shows I've never seen or even heard of! I love British television but I only get to watch what's on BBC America and unfortunately that includes mostly rehashed episodes of Top Gear, Gordon Ramsay's shows and American shows like Star Trek. I did see a show called Copper last night that was really good, it was about a New York detective in the 1860's.
What I am looking for though is information on a show that used to be on a year or so ago about a group of 7 people who were the survivors of some type of end of world scenario. There was a guy who was a murderer, a lady who was looking for her son (who had survived and was in a group of kids who attacked the survivors), a young woman in love with the murderer, and a black man who was like the moral center of the group. Anybody remember the name of this series and is it still on?
^ The programme you describe is called Survivors. Unfortunately it was cancelled after the second series
I know the one you mean, Call the Midwife, and it is a great programme I didn't like the sound of it before I started watching it, but it turned out to be a lot better than I had anticipated
BBC AMERICAs most watched......DOCTOR WHO!!!
^ And don't forget the rest of the outfit!
But of course the original occupant of those boots was Honor Blackman:
I'm really enjoying Me & Mrs Jones.
I'm mainly watching it for Sarah Alexander and Robert Sheehan.
Any good shows coming soon? Nothings really popping up on my radar but I'm out of the country so I might not be hearing about anything interesting.
I live in the USA and have no cable so it's hard to find your shows. Once in a wile I am able to find one on ares and download it. It maybe un-American to say this but our shows suck. I think Hollywood knows this and that is why we watch and try to bring your shows to the US. But it's not the same. They change it to suite the USA and that kills the show. When I was younger I saw Are You Being Served? and The Avengers and I was hooked. I have loved the Brits ever since. I'm so glad I found this site. I do so love to hear of all the shows that are out there. Thank you so much. Gary
There's a new 3-part serial starting tonight called The Secret of Crickley Hall, which is described as a supernatural drama. The trailers look pretty good but they always do make a show look good, don't they? Anyway, I'm hoping this is going to be a good watch.
Another one is Secret State. It's a 4-part political drama and I've seen the first episode, which was intriguing, but missed the 2nd one. I'll have to try and see it on online.
I don't really know of anything else coming up, apart from what might have been mentioned earlier in this thread. As for what's been on recently, has anyone seen Good Cop? Or been watching Hunted? I thought the former was very good but I've been disappointed by the latter.
^ I still haven't gotten around to watching Good Cop, I want to marathon it one day.
I guess the only interesting looking new show I can think of right now is ITV2's Switch. It's a show about a group of friends who are witches. It might appeal to some people.
I don't think you'll be disappointed by Good Cop, or at least I hope you won't be. I haven't seen Switch, I thought about watching it but I think it just didn't appeal. I know I could probably give it a go and catch it and other shows online, but I prefer to watch on tv, either when a show is broadcast or by recording.
Just marathoned S1 of BBC3's Some Girls the other day. Glad there will be another season. I understand the comparisons to Inbetweeners. Its not as funny but it's pretty enjoyable. I had fun watching it.
Can someone PM me about where to stream these from ?? Por Favor ?

^ Tbh, it wasn't that funniest show ever. I can see why it didn't get the ratings it needed to be renewed.
BUT, I really really loved Billy and Gemma's romance. That was what kept me watching. I'll just pretend that they ended up together. lol
So cute.
speaking of British shows...does anyone know how to get tickets to the Graham Norton show?
When I Googled it, it just comes up with this site and an application form:
I'm not sure, really. Hopefully someone British can be of some help to you.
I wasn't really sure if it was trying to be a Modern Family type show or a romantic comedy.
It seemed like a little bit of both. I thought that the supporting cast had loads of potential and were very funny. Sheehan and Alexander were great. Plus it was nice to see Sheehan play a sexy, straight-man for a change.
We got that in Love/Hate, however that character is put in such extreme circumstances its hard to focus on much else.

Just finished watching S2 OF Threesome. It was even more fun than S1 (which isn't as funny in the beginning). It just keeps getting more quirky and absurd. So good.
Also, saw the new BBCOne trailer for 2013. New episodes of Luther and Miranda...Nice.
Yeah, that one. Too bad they didn't tease S3 of Luther that much but it did get me excited it for it and other upcoming stuff. For example, it reminded me to watch Ripper, saw episode 1 and it was pretty solid. It has potential. Didn't realize it had premiered. ^_^
Yes, there is a Voice UK. I don't watch the Voice UK or any talent shows (American, British or otherwise) but I mostly only hear about X Factor as far as UK ones are concerned. There's also a Britian's Got Talent. lol
So many great shows are coming. That 'the White Queen' looks amazing and of course Luther and Doc Who
Just signed up for Hulu and have been watching this show called Spy. It's about a guy fighting for custody of his high iq smart mouthed kid and accidentally winds up working for the CIA after quitting his job to impress his kid. Pretty funny after they focus more on the father as oppose to the manipulating child.
He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone - Jill Scott - So Gone
I've just read this thread in it's entirety and have really enjoyed it
I live in the UK, but I haven't watched all the shows mentioned, just because I don't have much time for TV these days. That said, if my Facebook NewsFeed is anything to go by, it looks like you're in with the majority of the UK when it comes to most of these shows lol
Of the shows mentioned in this thread that I did watch, I've loved them all (especially IT Crowd, Green Wing, Books, Misfits, Shameless and Peep Show).
Anyway, I don't think I saw Inbetweeners mentioned. Easily one of the best shows to come out of the UK in recent years. It's finished now, but they ended it with a movie (also well worth a watch). I've seen a few episodes of the US version and, tbqh, they were awful. Completely murdered it. Watch the UK version, I insist
Also, I don't think anyone has mentioned Mount Pleasant. It's not AMAZING, but it's watchable. It's easy viewing. Somewhere between a drama and a comedy. You might like it
If anyone has mentioned either of those, oops, my bad. I can't remember every show that's been recommended :/
You have such good taste. But I am biased cos I love all of those shows, too.
LMAO. Yes, the US version is atrocious. I loved the UK one and the film as well.
I still get my Joe Thomas fix from Fresh Meat. He was always my favorite of the bunch.
I love Spy. The kid is pretty annoying, I agree. Which means that the child actor is doing an amazing job, tbh. You are right, though, the show is really funny.
What is up with the Midsomer Murders' producer saying that the reason why the show isn't more racially diverse is the fact that it represents the "Bastion of Englishness". I was trying to get into the show, but now I think that I will pass.
From the comments, all the fans seem to be okay with this ? I dont know how race politics are in the UK, but if someone said that here in the US it would have been a completely different story.
Can any English POC explain your color line in the UK? Are you considered English or immigrants, even if you have lived there your entire life? Is there a large enough POC audience that can influence your indigenous programs
This made me think of when Idris Elba won a Golden Globe for Luther. All the cameras panned to English actors getting strange reactions. All except for Kenneth Branagh were giving him the stink eye or perhaps didn't even know who he was. It was a little uncomfortable to watch.

Nevermind. They fired him and did damage control.
Jo Wright, the producer of the ITV programme, said the next series would "continue to develop and evolve as a drama".
Her comments come after her predecessor lost his job after saying non-white characters had no place in the show.
The producer, who has also worked on the BBC drama 55 Degrees North, said: "I strongly believe Midsomer Murders should represent its audience and, alongside some of the core characters, we have the opportunity to introduce a range of characters from different backgrounds within the films in the next series."

Build Your Own Backyard Smoker
Real barbecue involves cooking tougher, fattier cuts of meat like pork butt and beef brisket over a duration of 4 to 6 hours or longer at temperatures near the boiling point of water. The payoff: tough meat becomes flavorful and succulent, fat is rendered out and the low, smoky fire leaves the aroma of smoke permeating the meat.

Equestrianism: French leads test of Greenwich venue
Piggy French ensured that Britain reigned supreme after day one of London 2012's opening Olympic test event. French delivered an outstanding dressage display on DHI Topper W and will head into the cross-country phase in Greenwich Park with a commanding lead.
French's British team-mate Pippa Funnell lay fourth with Billy Shannon on 44.1, while the third Team GB member, the world No 2 William Fox-Pitt, was also well-placed on Gaucho, a further 2.6 penalties adrift. Fox-Pitt gave Greenwich Park a clear endorsement: "It has an Olympic feel, and this is just the test event."
