Chat Veteran actor Benjamin Gilani talks about his latest television show and his undying love for the stage
To those who grew up watching television in the early Nineties, the name Benjamin Gilani is sure to ring a bell. The actor is well known for his performances in Indian theatre with Motley, a theatre group he formed with Naseeruddin Shah and Tom Alter, television and films. He has played many a character, be it Estragon in Samuel Beckett's 'Waiting for Godot' or his role in Aamrapali , which aired on Doordarshan, but this time he is "not playing a character but just being himself", he says during a telephonic interview. He is referring to Disney's Channels new show, Disney Q – The Family Mastermind , a quiz show he is hosting.
The show follows the same format as the popular British television series Mastermind except with a twist – instead of individual participants, the show will test the abilities of the entire family. "There is a basic structure to the show but it is devoid of any theatrics. It is a content based show and, as you will see, the content will speak for itself," informs the actor who has worked with film directors like Shyam Benegal, Basu Bhattacharya, S. Ramanathan and Ketan Mehta. In between time spent on stage and on screen, Gilani has found time to teach English at St. Stephen's College, Delhi. "I'm also a visiting professor at the Whistling Woods Film Institute in Mumbai," he adds.
While he is comfortable doing television, Gilani's gets the greatest pleasure out of theatre, his first love. A postgraduate in English Honors from Delhi University, Benjamin went to the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) where he ran into Naseeruddin Shah. It was their shared passion for the stage that led to the founding of Motley in 1979; Gilani continues to be driven by the same passion. "Entertainment is a part of it but the aim is to try and make the audience think about something," he says. Motley is one of the few groups in the country that has found the sweet spot where undying love for theatre, captivating performances and evocative scripts meets commerce. Thirty years since it's founding, it continues to take its plays to various parts of the country.
"We do human interest stories and our choice of script is very personal, we try not to overly underline political interests but we do like to ensure that our plays are for education, to make people think and show them different perspectives. We also try to bring out the richness of the spoken word, never once exploiting the language but giving vast importance to the way it is delivered," he clarifies.
This time around he will be working with people who have never faced the camera or been on stage. Having lived through the many different stages of television in India, Gilani feels that the medium has a long way to go.
"Remember, private channels haven't been here that long," he points out. "but with the level of permeation they have in the country now, there is immense scope for television today."

Thanks Dave, Heidrun, Moussifer, & Doug! Such wonderful compliments! :) |
This is phenomenal! I'm in awe. You lucky duck. Best portrait of a butterfly I've ever seen. Congratulations. |
Great clarity of details. Photographing butterflies is a personal trial and tribulation for me too. Good on ya for the AC. |
Fantastic shot, Charlotte ! All your " suffering" was not in vain and with your persistance you created a masterpiece ! Double CONGRATULATIONS to you !!! |
Fabulous shot & comp, congrats on AC. |
Thanks so MUCH approvers, Gil, Jen, Kat, Gale, Elaine, Wanda, WeatherRose, Liz, Julia & WeatherWise |
Great shot! You captured all 4 wings in both shots and a fabulous capture of its body. |
What a great shot! Congratulations on your AC. |
Excellent macro, congrats on a beautiful AC! |
Nice series and capture! I have the same flowers in my back yard too. Hopefully they will attract some more swallowtails. Congratulations. |
Amazing shot! Congratulations Charlotte! |
Super capture - AC Congrats, Charlotte! |

Both of these shots are exceptional, Charlotte! I fell in love with this elegant, beautiful creature! Your photography is awesome! Congratulations on your new Blue! |
Wow, she looks so dainty and graceful. I love this head on shot, truly uniquely wonderful. Congratulations! |
Wow! This is very beautiful shot Charlotte. That took a lot of hot effort to get these shots. Congratulations on this beautiful AC! |
thanks Betsy. I was just so excited to finally get a shot at a butterfly outside that I would have stayed until I dropped! I wanted the light & if I would have waited until it got cooler I would have missed the light. Now I have to decide if I want to brave the mosquitoes tonight to get a meteor shower! |
Kudos for the effort, Charlotte. I would not have been outside, so I will say Double Kudos. Sorry about all that heat --- and humidity, I presume. Challenging! |
Thanks Eileen & Gary. I worked hard for this shot. They just arrived & are full of energy & very skiddish & of course the more you chase them the faster they get . If you are focused on one flower & they land on one 2 feet away, good luck in getting your camera moved & focused in time before they fly away. I think the heat index was 109-115 so drops were rolling down my back just standing there & my heart was pounding like I had run 1/2 a mile! |
I like it also, don't see many like this. Really good Charlotte. |
That is one cool head-on shot! A beauty! |
I have always loved taking pictures and WU makes it even more fun. It is a great site thanks to the approvers, all who manage the photos, and the wonderful WU photo friends. People at many levels of ability sharing their world and photography experience. In the process friendships are made and learning takes place as well as the chance to see the world!

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Such a beautiful invitation! I love the purple and white on black--it makes it so elegant. We went with the envelopements and love the way they turned out. One thing to remember is to put the tape on the back of the invitation itself, not on the envelopment, as this is the only way the invitation will stay in place."
"I was very pleased with the font and design on the back. I believe invitations should be easy to read and very informative. This invitation is perfect for our guests and fits perfectly with our black/ white/ floral theme!"
"We received our lovely invitations, and was så happy with both the design, layout and quality. Our guests has made so many positive remarks on our invitations. I love the fact that the design is powerful and light at the same time."
"I ordered the entire suite of this design. The paper was soft and had a great weight. I customized it so that it read on top " [My parents] invite you to the marriage of their daughter [My name] to [Grooms name]." Even though the template didn't allow me to change the plus sign between our names to "to", the design team followed my requests in the comment box to perfection. The colors were bright and beautiful, and in no way fuzzy or pixelated. They looked custom painted. All the texts that were "too big" the design team fixed so it looked perfect. Have recommended and will use again for a different occasion."
"Thank you Wedding Paper Divas for making our invitations perfect! Our photo had us in black and cream attire with a sunset background, and we chose the yogurt color overlay. The quality was perfect and the peal shimmer finish was the perfect elegant touch to complete the tone of our wedding we were going for. The communication was much appreciated by all of the representatives; they were clear and helpful. Thank you so much! I got the invites in perfect shipping time and packaging as well!"

Gallardo was acquired by the Rangers in a trade with the Brewers this offseason. The 28-year-old is in the last year of his contract. He won less than 10 games in 2014 for the first time in the last six seasons. He is 89-64 with a 3.69 ERA in eight MLB seasons.
"Growing up here in Texas, living in Fort Worth all my life, it's definitely a dream to have the opportunity to play for a team like the Rangers," Gallardo said, per MLB.com. "Now I have that opportunity, and I can't wait. I can't wait for it to get underway, and I'm looking forward to it.
"It was a dream [to play for the Rangers]. Having played baseball all my life, I always wanted to get to that goal that I had in mind. I didn't come to very many [Rangers] games as a kid, but I always watched on TV, that's for sure."
Gallardo joins a rotation that features Yu Darvish and Derek Holland. Gallardo has thrown at least 180 innings the last six seasons.
"It has been a focus point for us to add starting pitching, and Yovani was one of the guys we were hoping to land," Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said earlier this week. "Since the beginning of the offseason, the one thing we felt we were lacking was innings in our rotation. I think we are in a lot better position."
The 28-year-old Gallardo is in the last year of his contract. He won less than 10 games in 2014 for the first time in the last six seasons. He is 89-64 with a 3.69 ERA in eight MLB seasons.
The 21-year-old Sardinas made his MLB debut in 2014, batting .261 with six doubles, eight RBI and five stolen bases in 43 games. He had been considered a top-100 prospect by MLB.com in 2013 and 2014. He had a .289/.336/.355/.691 slash line in the minors.
The 23-year-old Knebel was traded for the second time in a year. He was traded from Detroit to Texas in July. He also made his MLB debut in 2014, posting a 6.23 ERA in eight relief outings for Detroit. He struck out 11 in 8 2/3 innings. He is 7-2 with a 1.65 ERA in two minor-league seasons.
The 18-year-old Diplan went 7-2 with a 1.54 ERA and 1.06 WHIP in 13 starts in the Dominican Summer League in 2014. The Rangers signed Diplan in July 2013 for $1.3 million, per MLB.com.
Rangers second baseman Jurickson Profar is not one of the players invloved in the trade, sources told MLB Network.
Gallardo, 28, will make $13 million in 2015. In 2014, he went 8-11 with a 3.51 ERA over 192 1/3 innings.
The move was expected, as CBSSports.com Baseball Insider Jon Heyman reported in late September. The 28-year-old is set to make $13 million next season. He posted a 3.51 ERA over 192 1/3 innings in 2014.

Still Life contains the major elements that make a good adventure game, a good story and intriguing puzzles. While the game might be a bit simple for some, veteran gamers will still enjoy the deep story contained within Still Life. The price is right, and the production values are excellent. Still Life is a great game for those who are looking for an adventure. Just be warned, the game is rated Mature, and it earns that rating with the language and the gruesome crime scenes.
PGNx Media
The Adventure Company and Microids are veterans in this genre, and their expertise comes though with the game. Still Life is generally enjoyable, with good quality puzzles and an excellent atmosphere. Still Life doesn't venture far from the typical adventure formula but for what it is, the game is commendable.
Adventure Corner
Mit 'Still Life' hat Microïds hier ein absolutes Top-Adventure abgeliefert, dass trotz seiner offensichtlichen Schwächen dennoch zu begeistern weiß. Story und Atmosphäre, unterstrichen durch traumhaft designte Locations können von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute begeistern und lassen über das stellenweise mangelhaftes Rätseldesign hinweg sehen. Trotz des linearen Ablaufs hat 'Still Life' übrigens einen erstaunlich hohen Wiederspielbarkeitswert, betrachtet man nämlich gewisse Hinweise mit dem Wissen um den Ausgang.
Schade und ziemlich ärgerlich ist allerdings das Ende, das nur allzu sehr auf eine Fortsetzung ausgelegt ist. Ob daraus allerdings etwas wird, bleibt angesichts der strukturellen Veränderungen bei Microïds mehr als fragwürdig und so bleiben viele Fragen wohl offen. Nichtsdestotrotz ist 'Still Life' bisher jedoch der absolute Top-Titel diesen Jahres.
Adventure Europe
Still Life is by far the best adventure game I've played in a long time. As a detective/horror game, it easily surpasses Post Mortem, Black Mirror and Jack the Ripper. The mystery is mesmerizing, the atmosphere truly dark and for the first two thirds, the storytelling is masterful. But due to the very traditional gameplay, and a somewhat less-than-satisfactory ending, it never comes near the true classics. That said, I do recommend Still Life, and I sincerely wish it enough success to warrant a sequel – and isn't that the biggest compliment you can give any story?
Game Chronicles
Excellent visuals and voice acting really draw you into this film-like adventure experience known as Still Life. The plot is well done and the dialogue and characters intriguing. Puzzles are hard enough to feel like you actually did something while not being so hard that you'll be tearing out your hair. The subject matter is definitely not for the kiddies, but non-squeamish adults who enjoy psychological horror films like The Ring, Se7en, or Silence of the Lambs should find a lot to like here.
Not everyone will enjoy Still Life. Unless you really enjoy good storytelling, Still Life is quite frankly boring. You walk from point A to point B, and you do some talking, solve a clever puzzle here and there, and badda-bing, badda-boom end credits. However, Still Life is excellent simply because there are very few players who won't be captivated by it. Where most games entice through blowing stuff up and hot action, Still Life entices based on a thrilling mystery that you as a player can help solve. And, at a budget price of 19.99, it's not hard appreciate the value of this title. Do you like excellent stories, great characters, solid voice acting, amazing graphics, and puzzles that truly challenge you? Still Life is a perfect choice for you. After all, you'd pay twenty bucks for a good movie. In this case, you're actually getting more bang for your buck.
Game Captain
Die Story ist der wichtigste Teil an einem Adventure, denn sie ist es, die den Spieler gefangen nehmen und festhalten muss. Die Story von Still Life schafft das ohne Probleme, die gekoppelte Geschichte der Gegenwart und der Vergangenheit ist spannend und voller Abwechselung. Abwechselungsreich sind auch die Rätsel, doch leider sind sie manchmal unverschämt schwer und sorgen so für Frustmomente, in denen die Motivation sehr schnell entschwindet. Aufgrund dieser schwerwiegenden Patzer bleibt Still Life eine eigentlich sichere Wertung über der 80%-Marke verwehrt. Alles in allem bietet Still Life ein spannendes Adventure mit einer düsteren und morbiden Atmosphäre, das Anfänger sowie fortgeschrittene Spieler einige Stunden Spannung und Rätselspaß bescheren sollte. Besser als die Konkurrenz von C.S.I. und Law & Order ist das Spiel allemal, schon allein Dank der tollen Story.
XBox Front
Adventure-Games und Konsolen: Diese Symbiose wollte bislang nicht so recht funktionieren. Einige wenige Ausnahmen wie Syberia konnten zwar durch schöne Grafiken begeistern, blieben allerdings weitestgehend ein Nischenprodukt. Umso erfreulicher, dass sich nun Microids an einen neuen Adventure-Titel mit dem klingenden Namen "Still Life" gewagt hat und das stiefmütterlich behandelte Genre mit neuem Wind beleben will.
Game Vortex
What I suggest is this: If you really like adventure games that have gory and intense storylines and puzzles with a high level of frustration, but also some very clever ones as well, this very well may be the game for you. Do yourself this favor though. Go to Still Life's website here and play the prequel of the game. From what I understand, there are three parts you can play online for free. If you dig the prequel, then you will know that you can at least complete the parts of the game that come after beating the Xbox version and can have closure. No, I am not sorry I played Still Life. I really enjoyed the ride, despite the frustrations. I just hate being left wondering, feeling like there was a sequel set-up, but not knowing if a sequel will ever happen (as Microids was purchased by Ubisoft recently).
Still Life includes a gripping gruesome story, challenging gameplay, and to top things off, it's only twenty dollars. It may not have the longest single-player campaign, but it has a darn good one. Still Life isn't for everyone though. It's very slow-paced and has tons of offensive content, making this one not suitable for trigger-happy gamers and young children. If you do not fall into either category, and can handle the extremely difficult puzzles, pick up Still Life, you won't be disappointed, maybe a little frightened, but not disappointed.
Still Life might not be perfect or innovative but it does justice to the classic crime-solving adventure genre and will keep you hooked to the very end. Even with the extremely difficult puzzles, I wish the game were a bit longer and the voice acting a lot better than what's presented here, but it's still a game worth checking out when you're in the mood for game that will make you think.
Worth Playing
As a rabid adventure gamer, I was a little disappointed with this title; it definitely needed more puzzles and a fresh take on the gameplay. The bottom line is this: if you like adventure games, you should enjoy Still Life, but it will definitely not change the mind of the masses.
StillLife nous fait immédiatement plonger dans un univers sombre et inquiétant grâce à une réalisation soignée et un scénario qui ne se dévoile que par petits bouts. En fait, on y joue de la même manière qu'on lit un bon polar avec des personnages qui débordent de naturel et qui deviennent alors vite attachants, avec aussi un tueur aux méthodes atroces, et une ambiance pesante jusqu'au dénouement final.
Gamers' Temple, The
Of course a huge part of any adventure game are the puzzles and Still Life runs the gambit from simple to what-the-heck-were-they-smoking. Most of the puzzle are a little more difficult than I was expecting and if you don't end up wanting to throw your TV out the window figuring out the cookie recipe then you did better than me. Overall I thought the level of difficulty was a little high, but it was actually a nice change of pace to be using the old grey matter.
Still Life is far from lengthy and begs to be played on the PC, but has an interesting storyline, some engaging puzzles and one heck of a cliffhanger ending. While some people might not be able to look past its shortcomings, it will definitely give adventure game enthusiasts something solid to sink their teeth into for a couple of days.
Gamer 2.0
Put it like this: Still Life retains the feel of many classics, but both LucasArts' and Sierra's titles had control systems that allowed the player more freedom. When you couple in the fact that Still Life is as linear as a train-track (for instance, you won't be able to pick up a fire extinguisher until the end of the game, and for no good reason) you have to content yourself with playing a game that Microids have envisaged. As we predicted in our preview, there are no multiple endings. And, on the topic of conclusions, Still Life ends on a huge cliff-hanger that sadly leaves a rather stale taste in the mouth.
Video Game Talk
Still Life is a throwback to the gaming days of yore with point and click adventures that required more brains than reflexes. Consoles have been sadly absent of this genre for quite some time now, but thankfully this title has come out for the Xbox near the system's end. It may not be the fastest paced game in the world or the best, since it does have many flaws, but the story is such that it will keep you coming back until you find out what happens. The only problem is that beating the game doesn't even bring about any resolution, just more questions so I'm assuming that there is going to be a sequel.
Daily Game
Still Life is one of those games that should prove entertaining for those looking for a little break from the constant stream of Xbox shooters. While it is a fairly short game, you'll easily get your $20 (U.S.) worth.
Still Life doesn't start with a bang; rather, it consistently builds towards an interesting and eventful finale, only to let the player down in the end. This might be the most significant factor in helping one decide whether to play the game or not. Some players will not mind a shoddy ending as long as the material leading up to it is top-notch; others, especially fans of traditional mystery stories, may not be able to get over the fact that Still Life avoids providing any reasonable kind of closure. Still Life is certainly a good example of its genre, but this glaring flaw along with the hit-or-miss puzzles prevents it from approaching greatness.
Still Life is an enjoyable albeit short diversion for fans of classic adventure games. As usual, this type of game controls better on a PC and character movement feels slow and clunky with the Xbox controller. The mature story will appeal to anyone who enjoys a good murder mystery but there are too many small shortcomings for this game to compare with high quality adventure experiences like Myst IV. Gamers with a strong stomach and a little patience should still give Still Life a try.
Still Life had the chance to be something great with its nicely defined plot points in some of the game's more pivotal moments. Sadly it falls into the realm of being one of those games that presents nothing new to the adventure genre and instead relies on the usual puzzle solving and mildly entertaining exploration mechanics of past titles. For those looking for a new and hardy experience, Still Life probably won't quench their thirst, but adventure buffs who have been starved for any semblance of their favorite genre, may find solace here.
So why does the overall score seem so low? Well, the score doesn't truly reflect the game as a whole and should not be a reason to miss out on it (considering its low price point). The score is more indicative of the taste the ending will leave in your mouth. You will invest a lot of time and care into this game and while you will enjoy the trip, the ending is so overwhelmingly disappointing that you may find yourself hating the entire product just for that. Yes, Hollywood movies have given us similar endings, but after the game has taken so much time to carefully and painstakingly create a perfect mystery for us, leading us to expect an intelligent and satisfying conclusion, it feels shallow (at best) to finally see what Still Life amounts to. This may sound harsh, but it is a reality.
Die lineare Abenteuer-Kost um eine Mordserie bietet wenig Interaktion, aber viele Rätseleien.
The amount of time it'll take you to solve the murder mysteries of Still Life will hinge on how many snags you hit while solving puzzles, or how willing you are to fall back on walk-throughs. Either way, though, it's a pretty brief experience that doesn't lend itself to multiple plays. Adventure game fans will be more willing to forgive the game's technical shortcomings than anyone else, but it's hard to believe that devotees of this style of gaming will find much in Still Life that they haven't experienced already.
Extreme Gamer
Still Life, still gives life to this old formula of point and click adventures. If you were looking for a mature plot driven game mixed with drama, suspense and gore then this is your victim. Remember its pace is slow, but the reward is worth the time invested.
Diehard GameFan
The opening sequence is like crack on a screen. It will suck you in and grab a hold of you and make you want to play this game. And at that point, one of two things is going to happen… Either you are going to really enjoy playing through the game, wanting to find out the connection between the two different cases and solve the puzzles, or you are going to get incredibly frustrated by the slow pacing and the puzzles that are nigh impossible to figure out. For me, it was the former. I really got involved with the storyline and wanted to get through the puzzles to see what happened next. Although a few of them definitely made me throw down my controller in disgust and walk away for a while (bloody cookie recipe). But if this is a genre you enjoy, you'll be sticking with it until the end.
MS Xbox World
Still Life is a game that will not appeal to everyone, especially those with itchy trigger fingers and a lack of patience. If you are the type of gamer that would rather use brain than brawn then I would say that Still Life might be worth a look. I found the game to be mostly enjoyable bar the odd puzzle that became frustrating after spending plenty of time trying to figure it out. These types of games are rather old school yet I think there is still a place in gaming for them. With plenty of spooky atmosphere and a gripping tale Still Life is an intriguing prospect although I can really only suggest a rental at best.
Cheat Code Central
Still Life is the kind of game that will be regarded by many as, "Not bad." It won't make anyone's top-five-games-of-the-year list but it tells an interesting tale and allows you to match wits with a couple of notorious serial killers. And did I mention that the dame ain't too bad looking?
As a complete package Still Life is a very enjoyable adventure game, its lack of engaging puzzles does sometimes make it feel more like an interactive novel than a game but that in no way detracts from the quality of the product. Here is a well-crafted, good-looking and mature work of fiction that shows a lot of promise for the future of adventure games. If only it was a bit more of a brain teaser.
Yes, the story is intriguing and wanting to know what happens next will drive most players to battle through the gameplay tedium, but the experience the plot delivers is in no way exceptional and certainly nothing that couldn't be surpassed by the rental of a decent DVD. The realization of the game as a true investigation, involving modern forensic techniques with Victoria mixed with tried and tested legwork with Gus would have made for a far more rewarding package. As it is, Still Life is an exercise in gaming mediocrity, which offers nothing to the player beyond watching, wailing, and wishing.
In the end, though, I suppose Still Life wasn't ever really intended to be a proper game. Whoever came up with the idea must've just wanted to see where it went. The overall lack of polish certainly supports that notion. Don't make the same mistake I did. You don't want to wind up like I did, stuck with an ugly knife in your back. I guess it could be worse, though. I'm not a dead whore.

text: Life and Death of Puppet GirlOnce there was a puppet girlWho lived close to the beach.She wanted to go down to the seaBut it was always out of reach.In her room by night and day,Imprisoned by her strings,She'd wait and sleep and sometimes prayFor the news the sea breeze brings.One morning when the sun was shiningAnd the birds were flying highShe heard the distant sound of cryingThat was carried through the sky.The sound of this then grew louderUntil it filled her roomUntil her drooping wooden headWas steadily filled with gloom."Why won't this crying stop" she said"Why won't this go away?""I want the crier to drop deadAnd not disturb my day."Suddenly as she thought thisThe air became very stillThe warm sea breeze moved through her roomBut left her with a chill.Now there was silence where she layImprisoned by her stringsAnd on her wooden face a smile...The kind of gift only dying brings.

I don't know about you, but I want to read or hear about something other than the congestion at West Coast ports, the Pacific Maritime Association and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union. Although the nine-month contract "negotiations" that finally brought a tentative agreement on Feb. 20 — and labor relations overall — are critical issues, there are other important issues to address, including the upcoming negotiations for 2015-16 service contracts in the eastbound trans-Pacific.
Container Lines
Container Lines
In-depth coverage of container freight, including TEUs, iso containers, container standards and relevant issues.
The container carrier landscape is constantly evolving. See how the companies involved have changed as a result of mergers and acquisitions since 1977.
News & Analysis
03 Mar 2015
The 15 top container carriers are at risk of significant and damaging cyberattacks, according to the head of a leading market intelligence provider and cybersecurity firm in the industry.
03 Mar 2015
The quality, availability and management of data has to improve if the supply chain is to efficiently handle the mountain of information that is now available to carriers and their customers, panelists said at the 13th annual TPM Conference in Long Beach, California.
03 Mar 2015
Ship sizes have reached the point of diminishing returns and container lines should be focusing instead on introducing differentiation into their service offering, Martin Stopford, director of Clarkson Research Services in London, told delegates at the 15th annual TPM Conference in Long Beach.
02 Mar 2015
Japan's third-largest shipping line, Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, announced Monday it would be beefing up its LNG and bulker vessels over the next four years, while downsizing its container shipping fleet.
02 Mar 2015
MOL on Monday confirmed orders and charters for six 20,150-TEU vessels that catapults the Japanese carrier into the ranks of the operators of the world's largest container ships.
02 Mar 2015
SeaLand, the hallowed container shipping brand relaunched by Maersk Line in January, sees an opportunity to gain market share in the Latin American lanes resulting from two mergers — between two German container lines and two Chilean carriers.
02 Mar 2015
A premium shipping market awaits container lines who would be willing to offer premium service at a higher price than commoditized service offered by most carriers today, Kuehne+Nagel Chairman Karl Gernandt told TPM 2015.
02 Mar 2015
Maersk Line CEO Soren Skou said ships with capacities of 25,000 20-foot-equivalent units are possible but not practical today, and that he expects 18,000- to 19,000-TEU container ships to remain the largest afloat for years to come.
01 Mar 2015
Growth in the global reefer market this year will likely outpace the lukewarm performance of the past few years, according to industry analysts.
01 Mar 2015
Cargo interests undoubtedly are relieved that the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and the Pacific Maritime Association reached a tentative contract deal on Feb. 20 after more than nine months of unexpectedly difficult negotiations, but now it's time for importers and exporters to reassess their commitment to West Coast ports.

Who are you teaching to pray? Now maybe no one has come to you like Jesus disciples and asked you specifically to teach them to pray. However, we don't always teach one on one or in a class or Sunday school class room either. The truth is we do far more teaching from a distance than we realize.
"Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you-you of little faith? "
I know you've heard of this one; "The Mary, Martha syndrome" Yup, we take a step back on purpose to remind us we need to be careful not to let the good things in our life rob us of the God things. Backing up to a small scene with huge implications in Luke 10, we find Jesus coming into the home of His single friends Martha, Mary and Lazarus. This is place where Jesus can find rest and relaxation from His busy schedule. He has just about six months left before He will be crucified and he stops by ...
For the next few weeks, my meditations will grow out of the many thoughts, feelings and prayers from the Holy Land. If you follow me on Facebook, some of this may look familiar as my Lenten Journey this year will contain reflections from my recent trip. Some will be included here. Our first day of touring started here at Qumran, an archaeological dig site for artifacts. Many of the places we went in the Holy Land are or have been archaeological dig sites. When civilizations come to ruin and new civilizations are built on top of them, it takes archaeologists ...
"You are all God's children through faith in Christ Jesus. All of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ."
"You are all God's children through faith in Christ Jesus. All of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ."
Just a thought: Are you qualified for ministry?
"You are the light of the world. A city on top of a hill can't be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they put it on top of a lampstand, and it shines on all who are in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before people, so they can see the good things you do and praise your Father who is in heaven."
"As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem." (Lk) 9:51 Jesus is looking for faithful followers. He is not interested in hearing people "say" they want to follow.
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me. He has sent me to preach good news to the poor, to proclaim release to the prisoners and recovery of sight to the blind, to liberate the oppressed, and to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."
When you need a little encouragement who do you go to?
"Your love is faithful, Lord, and even the clouds in the sky can depend on you."

I just can't watch horror movies. I get too frustrated. You see, it bugs me that they always go through that door.
Do you have any features that look like your mom's or dad's? Maybe you have his eyes, her nose or some other characteristic. Do you have any of your heavenly Father's features? "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God…" (Rev.4:8) But what about His children? We are told throughout scripture that we are to be as He is; (Lev. 11:44a; 19:2; 20:7,26; 1 Peter 1;15; 1 John 1:7).
Last Wednesday, at about midnight, one guy shoved something up my dad's nose, another person shoved something down his throat, and then the kicker – this guy took a knife and cut my dad's midsection wide open. And we thanked him for it.
Psalms 139 is the strongest, most undeniable argument for when "life" begins in the womb. This passage makes it very clear all life is divinely ordained by God, formed by God, and designed by and developed by God. Having said that, let's talk about our own life.
Ecclesiastes 3:9-14 (Contemporary English Version): "What do we gain by all of our hard work? I have seen what difficult things God demands of us. God makes everything happen at the right time.
We go through a lot to do "church". Think of the time and money and effort and energy put into making sure we've got a place to meet on Sundays, all the work that goes into the various events and traditions. People give up so much in the name of church, so today I ask you, "Why?" What's the point?"
OK guys, we've got a problem, it's Valentine's Day. If there was ever a day the pressure is on to prove your love, this is it. And there are countless ideas out there, but every one of them could just as easily backfire, since one woman might love what another would not. And if you ask your special someone how you can show your love, well, then you run the risk of her saying that if you really loved her you'd know.
God hates sin, not sinners. He hates sin because of what it does to the sinner (redeemed and unredeemed). For the redeemed, yielding themselves to sin can lead them back into the dominant control and slavery they have been set free from. For the unredeemed, sin piled upon sin takes them deeper into sin and farther from a sensitivity to God and need for salvation. Sin at its most basic form means to "miss the mark" Romans 2:23 tells us we have all done this. So in essence sin is sin is sin. But there are some sins God ...
Aren't you thankful today for the wonderful saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through His salvation, our spiritual identity and eternal destiny were changed? (2 Cor. 5:17; Romans 6:23b).
I have so many great memories of my grandma, especially when all the cousins would be together, playing in the basement while all the grown-ups were upstairs. Sometimes, we even all got to stay overnight down there. It was awesome, except for one thing: the coatrack. It was one of those things that was always there but you didn't always notice it, unless it was the middle of the night and you woke up and looked toward the one ray of light. That's when I saw what I was sure was a person or a monster - whatever it ...
Last week, we saw the righteousness that Jesus "filled up" for us – and put on our record in our baptism. We saw him doing everything that was "fitting" for that righteousness, living a perfect life, more perfect than even the most polished celebrity at the most posh event could ever be.
Some things are just fitting, aren't they? They are just supposed to be a certain way. Take the Golden Globes. Did you see the show? Everyone who is anyone in Hollywood was there. And everything was just right.
"How great are his signs, how mighty his wonders!" (Daniel 4:3) These words spoken by a king of the King of kings and Lord of lords are to be the focus of every Christian in today's world.
Do you ever feel that being a child of God isn't paying out like you thought it should? The childlike confidence that Jesus will make everything better doesn't always seem to play out - when the wound doesn't heal, the need isn't met, the hurt doesn't go away. For us grown-ups, reality tends to set in and tarnishes some of that unbridled optimism.

ACC content to stay with 15 teams
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK -- The Atlantic Coast Conference is now a 15-team league - and it might just stay that way for a while.
After Commissioner John Swofford welcomed Pittsburgh, Syracuse and Notre Dame to the ACC at a news conference at the NASDAQ stock exchange in Manhattan, he said that further expansion isn't on the agenda.
"It's not a topic of conversation for us right now," he said. "I would not anticipate it being in the future, but we'll see. I don't predict the future much anymore, I've learned better. But it's not something that's on the table for discussion in our league right now."
Swofford was joined at the news conference by Florida State football coach Jimbo Fisher, Virginia Tech football coach Frank Beamer, Notre Dame basketball coach Mike Brey, Syracuse basketball coach Jim Boeheim and former Pittsburgh great and now Arizona Cardinals star receiver Larry Fitzgerald. The group then took part in a closing bell ceremony at the stock market.
The ACC even brought the mascots to Times Square for an event it dubbed (hash)ACCtakeNYC on Twitter. The fuzzy crew of costumed characters was bouncing around Manhattan on Sunday, posting pictures on Twitter from various tourist attractions.
The ACC does have one more lineup change scheduled for next year, when Maryland leaves for the Big Ten and Louisville joins.
The Cardinals were picked to replace the Terrapins ahead of Cincinnati and Connecticut. Both of those schools lobbied the ACC to be next out of the Big East and both remain in the newly renamed American Athletic Conference.
If the ACC ever does decide to go to 17 members - 16 for football as Notre Dame will remain an independent in its flagship sport - Cincinnati and Connecticut would make geographic sense and fit in perfectly with what is shaping up to be the most formidable basketball conference in the country. Syracuse and Pittsburgh have been perennial top-20 basketball programs in recent years, and Louisville is the defending NCAA champion.
"From an athletic perspective, I think it's more than fair to say this is the strongest collection of basketball programs that has ever been assembled in one conference," Swofford said. "And our potential from a football standpoint is truly unlimited."
On the football side, Louisville is coming off one of its most successful seasons, capped by a victory against Florida in the Sugar Bowl. Syracuse and Pittsburgh haven't been made much noise nationally in football for most of the last decade, though Fisher said ACC football is better with the arrival of the Panthers and Orange this year and Cardinals next.
"You're talking about a league that can compete for national championships," said Fisher, whose Seminoles are the defending ACC champions and finished No. 10 in the country last season.
But while conference realignment has mostly been driven by football and the enormous amount of revenue that comes with it, the ACC has been careful to continue to cultivate the sport that it is most famous for: men's basketball.
"Give the commissioner credit because when they went to expand this time, these were basketball decisions," Brey said.
ACC football has been generally perceived as the weakest of the five major football conferences. The league hasn't won a national title in football since Florida State in 1999 and its record in BCS games is 3-13.
"What we are striving to do is to be known as the strongest and best across the board," Swofford said. "Nothing wrong with being really good in both.
"I don't think the conference has to have a label per se. That usually has to do with where you've had the most success from a national perspective historically. Our league has had more national success historically in basketball than in football, though we've had our success in football as well."
For Pittsburgh and Syracuse the process of changing conferences started, at least publicly, in 2010. The ACC invited the two of them the weekend of Sept. 17.
Still, this day was anything but anticlimactic for the Panthers and Orange.
"As much as we've planned and we're excited about it, this became real for us today, and we're making a big deal about it," Pitt Athletic Director Steve Pederson said.
