4.5 great phone fredharv | 05/07/2009 | See all fredharv's reviews (1) great phone, loved it, well worth it for the price. doesnt withstand being run over by a car to well.. but hey!
4.5 All you need in a mobile, at a bargain price andysnap | 24/03/2009 | See all andysnap's reviews (5) This is a really nicely designed, small, light mobile with really all the features you need in a mobile... camera, radio, Bluetooth, decent screen, music player, memory card slot, and so on. The camera takes really good photos(although the shutter button response is slow), and SonyEricsson have an excellent menu layout so its very easy to use, with a very useful shortcut button so you can set up quick access to most used features. For me the only downside is the poor quality video recording, which could be useful if it were better, but is of little real concern for me.All in all, this is just about my favourite mobile, and at a great price too. You can't go wrong...

Signal on my vodafone is a bit jumpy not sure why .. 3G is ok bit dear to run otherwise good phone . Worth a look so 4 star is best for it due to video and music player side

PhotoflexLightingSchool Lesson
By Adorama Learning Center Editors
September 7, 2011
Noted editorial photographer Ian Spanier takes photos that tell a story. Whether he's shooting images of celebrities, fitness models or doing a portrait, he crafts the shot so that we can learn something about the subject.
In this article for the Adorama Learning Center, Ian was asked to create a photograph of his colleague, Laura Dee Shelley, a well–known make-up artist. Much of Laura's job is covering textures and smoothing details. In this lesson Ian shows how he conveys her job with a clean and simple portrait.
Written and photographed by Ian Spanier
Equipment Used (Available at Adorama)• OctoDome® Grid : extra small (18 inch)• OctoDome® nxt: extra small studio kit Piggybacking onto a Model ShootOver the course of the last year, I've been working on a beauty book whenever one of my favorite makeup artists, Laura Dee Shelley, is in New York from her home base in London.
On the day of the shoot, as is normally the case, we both got pretty wrapped up in the process of photographing the models. And it wasn't until we were both packing up that we simultaneously remembered that we had neglected to take her portrait!The Quick Lighting AlternativeWhen I had packed up for the shoot, I brought along an easy-to-set up portable lighting kit, the Photoflex OctoDome® nxt: extra small studio kit. Among other components, this kit includes an extra small OctoDome® SoftBox, a StarFire™ ShoeMount flash unit, and a FlashFire wireless kit, which would allow me to use the StarFlash® off camera.
I wanted to keep the shot simple and thought it would be a fun challenge to see if I could make the portrait using just this equipment. If you read my previous lesson on how I used the extra small OctoDome® to create all the portraits for Epilepsy Advocate Magazine, then you know how useful a lighting tool I have found it to be. Here, I had a great opportunity to show off how versatile and easy to use this softbox is. A beauty portrait with the smallest softbox I own? WHY NOT?
I began by setting up the extra small OctoDome with both of the removable baffles attached in order to create soft, even light. Since I was using it as a singular main light, I left the optional Grid accessory off the face of the softbox, as it would have condensed the light somewhat and made it more directional than I wanted in this case. The wider spread of light would also open up the white wall I'd be shooting Laura against. The great thing about a setup like this is that it's both simple and quick to set up and break down, which is ideal when it comes to creating a fast portrait, especially at a moment's notice.
The kit comes with a great mounting bracket, the Adjustable ShoeMount Hardware, which connects the Basic Metal OctoConnector to the StarFire™/FlashFire™ setup (or any other type of shoe mount flash and wireless receiver). Before attaching the StarFire™/FlashFire™ setup to the Adjustable ShoeMount Hardware, though, I taped a small piece of 1/4 CTO (Color Temperature Orange) gel to the flash to warm it up. It was winter, and as with most Brits, Laura hadn't been getting a whole lot of sun in London! I highly recommend carrying a variety of gels like this in your kit, as you can make your artificial light imitate much more natural (or unnatural) color temperatures. With the gel attached, I then mounted the StarFire™/FlashFire™ setup to the Adjustable ShoeMount Hardware.
Light PositioningLighting for beauty is often determined by aesthetic choices, and the main light can be positioned at various angles. In this case, I thought it would look good to light from the side — specifically the open side of Laura's face. How you light your subjects is an important consideration as a photographer. I believe that light tells a story just as much as the subject does, so I try to consider what story I am telling with the light as I am prepping for my shoots.
I positioned the OctoDome® up on the LiteStand and angled it down about 45 degrees. This allowed for a nice shadow to fall to Laura's left side. And with that, my lighting was complete. It was that simple. I was now ready to fire away.
Decision-Making in the Digital MediumOften when I shoot, I think about how I will make adjustments to the images later in Photoshop. It's very easy these days to say, "Oh, we'll fix that later in Photoshop", but I don't recommend relying on it too heavily, unless you have no other choice. As photographers, we managed for years to get the shot right in camera, and I still strive for that. But I also recognize that the digital medium offers extended tools should I need them, and I keep these in mind.
In this case, I knew that by adding the CTO to the flash, the white wall would also take on the warm tone. However, I wanted the wall to read as white, so I knew I would correct this later in Photoshop for the color version.
Since Laura was wearing black and the wall was white, it was hard not to think of the image in black and white. So I decided to make a copy of the original and convert it to black and white. Another great extended tool in the digital medium! Comparing the two side by side, Laura and I both liked the black and white version even more.
As you can see, compelling portraits don't have to be overly involved. With this simple lighting setup, you can create images that could have easily been made with much larger, elaborate and more expensive equipment. Makes you realize you can get by with less when you need to!Web Photo School Editor's Notes:Ian's choice of location and lighting may seem like it was chosen out of convenience, but it's clear he knows what he's doing. He could have had his subject in a more cluttered studio setting or perhaps working on a model, but his result shows a good feel for what Laura does. When creating an editorial photo of someone, it's important to place them in an environment that helps to tell their story. Texture and form describes the creations of a woodworker, so he may be shown at his work table amid tools and wood chips. Words that describe Laura's job are clean, clear, smooth, radiant, etc. In addition, Laura's workplace is often the photo studio.In the final photo, Laura is portrayed as a person in control and the results of her efforts are to be seen in her clothing, posing, and background: clean, clear, smooth and radiant. There's nothing extra or confusing in this photo. This is good editorial photography.

North Korea drama: Where are Kim Jong-un's brothers?
Conspicuously absent from all images coming out of North Korea are Kim Jong-il's two other sons.
The two older sons of the late North Korean leader Kim Jong-il face uncertain fates as political exiles, while brother Kim Jong-un assumes the mantle of power in Pyongyang.
Analysts offer that view after finding no signs that either has come to visit their father's body lying in state in a glass-enclosed coffin in Pyongyang.
In fact, say analysts, the spectacle of two blood brothers in the wings would be more than a mere distraction. It would be difficult to convince people that at least one of them wasn't waiting to take over, especially since they're both older and the "supreme leader," after all, has done little to prove he's worthy of the title.
The eldest, Kim Jong-nam, at least a decade older than Jong-un, "appears to have security concerns," says Michael Breen, a long-time consultant here who's written a biography of Kim Jong-il. "He might be assassinated."
The need to keep Kim Jong-nam and his brother, Kim Jong-chul, far out of sight underlines the insecurity of a regime that immediately thrust Kim Jong-il's handpicked "great successor" into the limelight as "supreme leader" of the armed forces and the ruling party after his death two weeks ago.
The regime in recent days has gone to extraordinary lengths to put Kim Jong-un on display. On Thursday on North Korean State TV he was proclaimed "supreme leader" of the ruling party and the armed forces before 200,000 people massed on Kim Il-sung square in central Pyongyang.

Holly followed Jamie and Anne up to the door, "Guess I should have a Captain's at my room, hope it gets plenty of sunlight." With a slow glazed look, he looked down at his joint as Anne pointed out he probably shouldn't smoke in there. Giving a shrug, he ignored the advice and walked inside, "Naah, it's fine, I couldn't go without the bloody stuff in my room anyways. See ya later mate!" Stepping clumsily through the hall, Holly reached his door, room 112S. He opened the door, immediately noticing that it looked like an energetic animal had been running through the place, displacing bed sheets and other small items, but Holly didn't seem to notice, "Heyy, this is nicer than my old place." He puffed on his joint, smoke slowly rising into the room as he plopped down on the nearest couch.

Food stamps will shrink Nov. 1: Recipients worry about food, heat
Food stamps go to 47 million Americans a month, almost half of them children and teenagers. A two-year stimulus bump in food stamp benefits will expire Oct. 31, prompting new worries for families.
Lauren Abdel-Razzaq/Detroit News/AP/File
A temporary increase in food stamps expires Oct. 31, meaning for millions of Americans, the benefits that help put food on the table won't stretch as far as they have for the past four years.
Food stamps — actually the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — go to 47 million Americans a month, almost half of them children and teenagers.
"Every week is a struggle as it is," said Heidi Leno, 43, who lives in Concord with her husband, 9-year-old daughter and 5-year-old twins. "We hate living paycheck to paycheck and you have to decide what gets paid."
Starting in 2009, the federal stimulus pumped $45.2 billion into SNAP, increasing what would have been a monthly benefit of $588 a month to $668 for an average household of four. In November, that same family will start getting $632 a month, about a 5 percent cut.
The benefits, which go to 1 in 7 Americans, fluctuate based on factors including food prices, inflation and income.
Families and providers worry the expiration of the stimulus bump comes at a particularly bad time:
— Though Census figures from September show poverty remains stuck at around 22 percent, in some states, including New Hampshire, the number of children living in poverty is climbing.
— The House voted to cut almost $4 billion a year from the roughly $80 billion-a-year program in an effort to find savings in the budget. A Senate bill would cut around $400 million a year.
— In cold weather states, even a slight decrease in the benefit can trigger a decision between heating and eating. Heating fuel prices are expected to increase this year too, the government warned this week.
And the program could face another shortfall if the government is shuttered past Nov. 1.

The Toronto-based siblings transform found materials into rustic, yet sleek lighting, tables and seating with an industrial edge. For instance, belts used in a dry-cleaning factory are wrapped around an oak frame to create a stunningly spare day bed. The humble materials belie the beauty of these one-of-a-kind works, making the Dressler's designs stand out in a market flooded with eco-friendly products. View their collection.

Dr. Fabi is so pretty and professional. She made me feel like part of her inner circle immediately... Like we were sharing the fountain of youth beauty secrets. I'd never treated myself to such a luxury so I was a bit nervous but I felt so comfortable and confident in her care.

Erasing Sun Damage - San Diego, CA
Dr Fabi (GBKderm) is a great cosmetic dermatologist. She explained how the laser works (as an engineer I always want to know the how) and is an awesome doctor. I have also received Botox, Ulthera and a Juvaderm treatment from her. She is skilled, knowledgeable, fun and listens well. She is also a perfect advertisement for non-surgical procedures as she uses them herself and she is gorgeous. I actually enjoy going into the office for procedures and I feel that she truly cares about me, what I am looking for and how I look. Her staff always follows up and they are very professional and accommodating. I also appreciate that she is always researching and learning the latest techniques and methods. I feel safe and comfortable around Dr. Fabi.

Biofirm Lift Firming Anti-wrinkle Filling Cream - Face & Neck Normal/Combination Skin is a basic option for its intended skin type, but won't lift skin a centimeter or provide a firming benefit.
This rich textured cream works with skin's own biology to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Using bio-filling technology and expanding biopeptides, it gently lifts and virtually fills areas where visible signs of aging may occur to leave skin smoother looking and firmer. Facial contours are lifted and better defined.

Biotherm At-A-Glance
Strengths: Sunscreens now include the right UVA-protecting ingredients; some good cleansers and makeup removers.
Weaknesses: Redundancy, especially within the moisturizer category where there are far too many products whose differences are more tied to name and claims than formula; overuse of alcohol in the moisturizers (the drying kind, not benign fatty alcohols such as cetyl or stearyl); jar packaging; bland toners; ineffective AHA/BHA, and skin-lightening products; overly fragrant products make this brand a poor choice for those with rosacea or sensitive skin.
Biotherm is one of the many companies owned by L'Oreal USA, and has a vast array of products, with many redundancies. It was founded in 1952 by a French biologist who discovered, as the story goes, a mineral-rich element in mountain spring water. Flash-forward to a slick lab where white-coated scientists supposedly figured out a way to capture this element (called vitreoscilla ferment) in its active form, and that's essentially the story behind Biotherm, now sold in 70 countries. The company announced in 2007 that Biotherm would not be sold in any U.S. or Canadian department stores anymore yet would be sold online. But as of 2009, it seems the company changed plans, at least in terms of its Canadian distribution. The brand is sold in most Canadian department stores as well as Shoppers Drug Mart.
Biotherm's claims are wrapped around the effect their special ingredient (vitreoscilla ferment) has on skin, and how it helps skin reactivate its own natural biological processes. We weren't even partway through reviewing these products before noticing the products are far from unique or specially formulated. A major reason for that is the inclusion of problematic ingredients in many products, notably alcohol, lots of fragrance, and menthol derivatives.
But is there anything to Biotherm's fervent belief in and pervasive use of vitreoscilla ferment? This gram-negative bacteria can help cells utilize oxygen better in vitro (Source: Journal of Biotechnology, January 2001, pages 57–66). But whether that effect can be translated to benefit skin cells via a cosmetic formulation is unknown, and there are no studies supporting the use of this ingredient for skin care. Therefore, you're left to take Biotherm's word for it, even though they don't bother to explain why they avoided so many well-researched antioxidants, or use minuscule amounts of intriguing ingredients that in greater amounts can positively affect skin's structure and healthy functioning. Plus you have to wonder, if this is such a great ingredient for skin, why don't the other L'Oreal companies such as Lancome, Kiehl's, La Roche-Posay, or even L'Oreal use it?
Biotherm is also big on minerals, specifically the gluconate forms of magnesium, copper, and zinc. All of these have some research indicating their merit for skin, but mostly in terms of wound healing or being mildly antibacterial. That's not the way they're showcased in Biotherm's products, of course, because anti-wrinkle and anti-aging claims are what sell products. Although they link minerals with anti-aging prowess, a wrinkle is not a wound. Moreover, the tiny amounts of these minerals found throughout the Biotherm lineup only nullifies their already limited effectiveness as part of a comprehensive skin-care routine. There are some gems to be found in this line, but proceed with caution because most of it is downright boring or just plain bad for your skin.
Note: Biotherm is categorized as a brand that tests on animals because its products are sold in China. Although Biotherm does not conduct animal testing for their products sold elsewhere, the Chinese government requires imported cosmetics be tested on animals, so foreign companies retailing there must comply. This requirement is why some brands state that they don't test on animals "unless required by law." Animal rights organizations consider cosmetic companies retailed in China to be brands that test on animals, and so does the Paula's Choice Research Team.

Restoring Our Oceans with Hands-On Conservation
ExpeditionDispatch 23 December 2008 (Vol. 2 No. 4)
Ocean Doctor's "50 Years – 50 States – 50 Speeches Expedition"
A new expedition launches January 7, 2009 in California! The Ocean Doctor's "50 Years – 50 States – 50 Speeches Expedition" is a one-year journey of outreach, education, and discovery, announced by Dr. David E. Guggenheim on his 50th birthday (October 6, 2008) to bring, at no charge, speeches about the oceans to schools in all 50 U.S. states plus territories. By its culmination at the end of 2009, the "expedition" will have reached well over 100 schools — from Barrow, Alaska to Rapid City, South Dakota to the Florida Keys — to share firsthand accounts, stories, humor, passion, and important lessons about the oceans and their conservation. Through additional outreach in the visited communities, engagement of the media, and encouraging the visited schools to connect with each other and share their perspectives on the oceans through a new online social network, it is hoped that this project can help encourage an enduring wave of renewed interest in the oceans by its next generation of explorers, scientists and stewards.
The expedition is a joint project of The Ocean Foundation, the project's fiscal sponsor, along with 1planet1ocean, and is supported by your tax-deductible donations to the "Ocean Doctor's 50 Years – 50 States – 50 Speeches Expedition Fund" at The Ocean Foundation. Become a supporter!

IN THE STUDIO: Emily Haines Talks Metric LP
Last November, Metric capped their first decade as a band with gigs at NYC's Museum of Modern Art and Miami's edgy Art Basel festival, and tied a bow on their touring cycle behind 2009's Fantasies. It was a satisfying climax: They'd played to the biggest audiences of their career, including a stint supporting Muse's North American arena tour, collaborated with Oscar-winning composer Howard Shore on music for a Twilight film, and accomplished all this while selling 500,000 copies worldwide of an album they released and promoted entirely by themselves. (See Metric perform at SPIN's office.)
But as she settled into the process of co-writing Metric's fifth album -- an as-yet-untitled set on target for a Spring 2012 release -- singer-keyboardist Emily Haines went back to her roots, splitting time between Toronto and her second hometown, New York City, for what felt like a new beginning.
"It was as though I was just starting out, hanging around the local bars and writing songs late at night on the piano at home," she tells SPIN. "I was trying to push my writing forward while walking down streets I've been walking down since I was 15. Riding my shitty bicycle. Like none of the last 10 years of being in Metric -- going from playing clubs to playing arenas, wrangling with the business side, all the personal drama -- ever even happened."
Now, the band -- Haines, co-writer and guitarist Jimmy Shaw, bassist Josh Winstead, and drummer Joules Scott-Key -- have 13 songs ready to mix, which they recorded in their own Giant studio in Toronto and at New York's historic Electric Ladyland. "We went into this album with the attitude that we should do what we feel like doing, as we've always done," she says. "You know, go toward what scares you, and then keep going."
Here, Haines offers some insight on the album, the band's Twilight experience, and more.
SPIN: Did you think you had to forget Metric's past 10 years to make this record feel new?
Emily Haines: The cool thing is that it wasn't really something I tried to do. It just seemed like the natural state. That everything had sort of come full circle. And here we are, a band that had been together 10 years, and it feels like we're making our first record. Almost as though everything we achieved was like the qualifying matches, and now, finally, we are actually in the game and have an opportunity to make the music we always wanted to make. When we started out, we felt like we literally needed to go door to door let people know we existed. Now, a little bit less of our brain has to be stuck in that stuff, and more of it can be applied to the music.
While it started as you and Jimmy, with each record Josh and Joules have become more involved the studio. Is it a complete and total four-piece band now?
Everything has its moments. The band will always be, at its the foundation, me and Jimmy -- that's how it started. That's the heart. But you get 10 years in with these two people that you love and, naturally, everyone's a big part of it.
What kind of sounds can fans expect?
On Fantasies, I felt like I was on my best behavior because I kind of lost it [on Live It Out], and things got a little out of hand. We got our hands back on the reins with Fantasies, and made a straight-up, solid album -- that's definitely something we're seeking to continue. There's no room for anything weak on an album these days, in my opinion. We have too much respect for our fans to just indulge in something for ourselves -- we'll save that for the concerts. [Laughs] Sonically, we just want it to be fucking beautiful. That's all we've ever wanted, and we just keep trying to inch closer to the sound we hear in our heads. And this time, we've had the benefit of being able to get even more vintage microphones and beautiful synths into our studio. We installed hardwood there, and made the place feel really good, so we could keep pursuing the sounds that we hear in our mind. That's probably too esoteric an answer, but that's the truth.
Did playing larger and larger venues over the past few years have any influence on what this new record became?
It did. When we're writing, we are always connecting music to where it'll fit in our live show. In a lot of ways it feels like that's what our albums are: just repertoire that will fit into this ongoing beast that is a Metric concert. On this record, more than ever, we're visualizing how to make sounds that can fulfill what we imagine the live show can be. We're definitely not visualizing a little basement club with these songs. Arenas are weird, and driving golf carts indoors is a strange experience. But there are also so many incredible outdoor festivals, and we just want the music to be big, to fill the space and be welcoming to people. When songs have that quality, that's when we feel like we're headed down the right road.
Was there any sort of marked uptick of fans when you did "Eclipse (All Yours)" for Twilight: Eclipse?
I didn't ever see any difference. But I know everybody had a comment on it, and it was the same thing when Death Cab did it -- it really cracks me up. I don't know why everybody cares so much. But I never noticed any difference. There were never vampire teeth in the front row. But now I have a great, creative, collaborative relationship with Howard Shore, who was the composer, and the reason we got involved to begin with. So I 'm looking forward to some more projects with him in the future. That's was the point of doing it.
Metric will always be connected to Broken Social Scene, and Eight and a Half, featuring members of the Stills and Broken Social, just recorded in your studio. How is the BSS posse getting on these days?
The connection is really still strong, and it's changed, as it would, over the years. But to have Eight and a Half working at Giant is amazing. It's more of an inside support network. None of us seem to be opting for big photo appearances together, but you drop a text to someone and give them the support, when they're doing something new. That's always been part of the dream for all of us. It's way more fun if you have your friends, you know? It's just better.
What are some lessons you learned from self-releasing Fantasies, and what, if anything, are you planning to change this time around?
I have this theory: The whole way the industry's set up is like parents and children. Musicians are always like, "Oh, I have to do this interview because my label, Daddy, told me," and it's condescending the way the whole thing is structured. But when you remove that and you're the person that made all of the choices, you've got nobody to blame but yourself. But I love it. I love that nobody tells me what to do. I would never trade that for the world. And, as a result of Fantasies' success, we are in a position to create partnerships with companies on reasonable terms. This is always my beef. It's an antiquated model, the way record deals are structured. We just want to make a fair deal, coming up with something that's not totally exploitative. And due to the fact that we were able to make such progress on our own, we now have partnerships in place which I think will make it a lot easier for me to focus on playing music, which is really all I ever wanted to do. But, like anything, you have to fight up the mountain for a while first.
Have you had to staff up a bit? Are there more people working for the band full-time?
Yeah, there's going to be less of me on my laptop, and more people helping out, which is great. We love working in groups, and it's a super democratic organization. The more, the merrier. I'm happy I have more people involved, leaving me more time to be the musician I want to be.

Showgirls dressed as Obama at Berlusconi's 'bunga bunga' parties
Showgirls dressed as Obama, Brazilian footballer Ronaldinho, as well as nuns and nurses at former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's parties. Karima El Mahroug testified about showgirls dressing up at a prostitution trial in Italy.

Milan, Italy
The nightclub dancer at the centrer of former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's "bunga bunga" sex trial told a court on Friday that guests at the media tycoon's parties dressed as nuns, nurses and U.S. President Barack Obama.
Karima El Mahroug, better known by her stage name "Ruby the Heartstealer", spoke as a witness in a trial at which talent scout Lele Mora, television anchor Emilio Fede and former showgirl and regional councillor Nicole Minetti are accused of inducing and aiding prostitution.
Berlusconi is being tried separately for paying for sex with El Mahroug when she was a minor and then abusing office by having her freed from police custody after her arrest for theft.
Her appearance is nevertheless an embarrassment for the 76-year-old billionaire, serving as a reminder of the legal threats the leader of the centre-right and key partner in the governing coalition faces.
A verdict in the sex trial is expected in June, and a conviction for tax fraud is moving to a final appeal. Berlusconi says he has never paid for sex, denies any wrongdoing and says judges are politically motivated against him.
El Mahroug failed to appear as a witness at Berlusconi's trial in December because she was on holiday in Mexico. In her Friday testimony, she challenged Berlusconi's assertion that events at his villa were elegant dinner parties.

By Habibu Kissio, Rubondo Island Camp Guide
Rubondo Island National Park covers a total area of 456.8 sq km of which 236.8 sq km is dry land. There are also 11 smaller islets and 220 sq km of water.
The park contains unique flora and fauna with a mosaic of different primary forests creating a dense cover of over 80% of the Island. This is interspersed by papyrus swamp, rocky grassland, open woodland, grassland and sandy lakeshore.
The park structure of different vegetation, geographical location and very pleasant weather is a paradise to much wildlife, including an abundance of Lepidoptera (Butterflies and Moths), which are one of my favourite subjects.
Butterflies are attracted by many factors, including availability of good cover, water, plants for food and to lay their eggs; all these factors exist in Rubondo National Park.
Rubondo is home to many species of Lepidoptera, and some of them are endemic to the Island. Since the establishment of Asilia's camp on the island, many species of butterflies have been recorded and photographed.
Feeding and Food of Butterflies:
As larvae, the vast majority of butterflies feed on plant matter. Choice of larval food is often highly specialised and in some cases restricted to a single species. As a result, butterfly distribution is influenced by the availability of food for the larvae.
Most butterflies are active during the day [diurnal] and they start to become very active when the sun is not too hot. Butterflies can be observed in the morning and at sunset on forest edges, on flowers, in the canopy, alongside marshes, on animal dung, rotten fruit and dead animals, demonstrating that they utilise a huge variety of food sources.
These are some species of Butterflies of Rubondo Island National Park that have been observed through various activities and field studies:
African Monarch (Danaus chrysippus aegytus). These orange and black butterflies can be seen nearly everywhere on the island, gliding slowly and lazily from one flower to another. The orange and black is known as a warning colour, as they are poisonous from the alkaloids [toxins] they extract from toxic plants during their larval stage. Keeping this toxicity their entire lives, this is the reason why they fly lazily, as nobody can eat them!
2. Friar (Amuaris ochlea ochlea) Conspicuously marked with black and white, the males have less white on the wings than the females, which have a more rounded wing. They love shade and are seldom found in the open, except nearby attractive flowers, where they sometimes swarm. They can be seen everywhere within the forest flap gliding slowly because they are poisonous to predators. When disturbed, they flash out a yellow soft brush at their rear end that emits an unpleasant smell to deter predators. They can be observed in open areas within the forest mixed up together with other species such as Novices, Laymans and Chiefs, sucking alkaloids from toxic plants.
3. Acreas are medium size butterflies that can be found flying slowly, close to the ground and above the canopy searching for alkaloids from toxic plants. Large numbers of different species of Acrea can be seen in various habitats like forest, grassland forest, open grassland, undergrowth forest and along the forest edges. Acreas are brightly coloured to warn their predators that they are toxic and cannot be eaten, which is why they can fly around slowly. The species of Acreas on the Island are abundant and need to be very carefully examined to identify them in the field – such as Garden Acrea; (Acrea Horta), Rainforest Acrea; (Acrea boois boois), Pale Yellow Acrea; (Hyalites obeira burni) and Dusky Acrea; (Pardosis esebria esebria).
4. Leopard or Phalantas. These have small yellow and black spots on their wings, thus their name. They are active on sunny days mixed in with other species at pools of water on the roadside, sucking the water and squirting fine, silken threads of it from their rear. They also can be seen on animal dung feeding from the liquids it contains. Two species have been recorded on the island; the African Common Leopard;(Phalanta phalanta), and the Forest Leopard; (euritys eurytis).
5. Charaxes or Emperors are one of the most remarkable butterflies to see on the island. These are medium sized to very large, robust, showy, fast flying butterflies, usually inhabiting the upper canopy. Males are strongly territorial and are usually found perched on exposed leaves or twigs, frequently darting out to chase intruders. Females are found closer to food plants. Adults seldom feed on nectar, preferring tree sap (dozens may be seen at sucking holes; where beetle larvae have bored into the tree). Charaxes can also be observed on rotten fruit and animal dung, fighting for the space to feed where they can get vital minerals such calcium and iodine. Males are often found drinking at mud holes. Charaxes can be seen easily after rain sucking water from roadside puddles, and if you take a close look you will notice that they suck in the water and then squirt it out from their rear end. The Emperors you may see often during your visit to the island are Pearl Emperor; (Charaxes varanes varanes), Green-veined Emperor; (Charaxes candiope), Giant Emperor; (Charaxes castor), Large Blue Emperor; (Charaxes bohemani), Blue-spotted Emperor;(Charaxes Cithaeron) and Black Bordered Emperor; (Charaxes pollux).
6. Forest Queen; Euxanthe wakefieldi. These are large tailless butterflies, and the sexually dimorphic females are black with spots of white and a bright yellow abdomen. The red, black and white males are often found on hilltops, while females stay near food plants. These butterflies are forest dwellers, with a fast-flying swooping motion.
7. Common Sailor; Neptis laeta. Small to medium butterflies with distinctive black on white markings. These butterflies can be seen everywhere on the island flying and sailing with few wing beats above small trees on forest edges. Most insectivorous birds such as Pygmy Kingfishers and White Throated Kingfishers prey on these butterflies.
A mating pair of Common Sailors- the female is on the left.
8. Diadems or Hyolimnas. Conspicuous, colourful butterflies, flying fast and strongly with a characteristic flap-glide action. Fond of fermented fruits and flowers, they are highly sexually dimorphic: males are black with white blotches while females are more robustly built and have a more powerful flight like the African Monarchs that they mimic. Two species have been recorded on Rubondo; the Common Diadem; (Hypolimnus misippus) and the Variable Diadem; (Hypolimnas anthedon wahlbergii).
9. Common Mother-of Pearl; (Salamis parhassus). These are large butterflies with squared-off wing margins and prominently hooked wingtips, with an untidy flapping flight. They are wary, and can move very quickly when attacked.They often settle on prominent leaves along forest edges, and in summer they are found all over the forest. During the dry season they concentrate on water edges, well camouflaged under large leaves. They are very fond of flowers. They are very aggressive to other butterflies, and have been observed fighting and chasing other species away from food or a mud puddle by using their powerful wings.
10. Swallowtail or Paillionidaes. These are very large butterflies that can be found all over the forest. Males are often found on the forest edges inspecting flowers and females spend most of their time near food plants. Despite their names, Swallowtails are tailless except for the male Mocker Swallowtail, which is unmistakable due to the unique appearance of those two long tails and its bright, creamy yellowish colour. Other species of swallowtail that have been recorded on the Island are the Citrus Swallowtail; (Papilio demodecus), and the Green-banded Swallow tail; (Papilio nireus).

Why Key Energy Services (KEG) Stock Is Plunging Today
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Shares of Key Energy Services Inc.
(KEG - Get Report) are plunging -11.71% to $7.39 after it said late Thursday it expects to report a second quarter loss in the range of 35 cents to 38 cents.
Key will record a $30 million to $35 million pre-tax charge for goodwill and other assets impairments related to its operations in Russia.
Also, pre-tax expenses of $5 million were incurred in connection with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act investigations.

Additionally, Key expects its consolidated revenue in the second quarter to be down approximately 2% compared to the first quarter 2014.
Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates KEY ENERGY SERVICES INC as a Hold with a ratings score of C. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate KEY ENERGY SERVICES INC (KEG) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed, some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, good cash flow from operations and largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity and poor profit margins."

Brands and Brand Management
Contemporary Research Perspectives
Edited by Barbara Loken, Rohini Ahluwalia, Michael J. Houston
Psychology Press – 2010 – 344 pages
Psychology Press – 2010 – 344 pages
Very few books exist that meaningfully integrate the rich and vast body of scientific research and theories that have accumulated in the field, relating to both traditional and contemporary topics in branding. This book accomplishes that task, with contributions from leading experts in the science of branding, national and international. The book should appeal to all students, faculty, and marketing professionals with an interest in research findings about brands, and an interest in deepening their understanding of how consumers view brands.
"This volume reflects the work of arguably the most talented collection of brand researchers at any top business school in the world, as well as contributions of other leading branding thought leaders from organizations. It offers perspectives and insights that will be vital to successful brand management in the future. Specifically, it addresses branding topics that have been of enduring interest (brand extensions and brand alliances) as well as topics that have become increasingly more important in recent years (corporate social responsibility and brand emotions) It provides alternative perspectives on brands and their meaning, measurements, management and protection." - Kevin Lane Keller, E.B. Osborn Professor of Marketing, Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth University, Internationally known branding expert and author of "Strategic Brand Management"
"This cutting edge volume offers an authoritative approach to understanding the science of branding. The chapters from top experts on branding mine the best research from a range of disciplines, providing fascinating insights for scholars and managers alike. If you have ever wondered how to design successful brand alliances, how to cultivate brand loyalty among consumers, how brands develop symbolic meanings, and why some brands become "cultural icons" then read this book!" - Sharon Shavitt, Walter H. Stellner Professor of Marketing University of Illinois, President-Elect Association for Consumer Research
"This book provides a nice balance of reflective academic perspectives on brands (especially the psychological aspects underlying brands) and their management along with a clear recognition of the challenges and demands faced by contemporary practitioners. Well accomplished chapter authors provide a succinct review of the current state of knowledge of various aspects of brands. The authors also provide an agenda for future research and the areas of collaboration between academics and practitioners."- Curtis P. Haugtvedt, Department of Marketing, Fisher College of Business, The Ohio State University (quote from the Series Foreword)
"A wonderfully comprehensive examination of brands from a cultural, analytical and emotional perspective"- John Gerzema, author of "The Brand Bubble" and Chief Insights officer, Young and Rubicam Group
"The novelty of the book is to address branding from a research perspective. This is an impressive list of contributors and the book is very comprehensive in its scope." - Mark Batey, author of "Brand Meaning"

Private theatre in Turkmenistan enjoys success
Private theatre in Turkmenistan enjoys success - Central Asia News Afghanistan Kazakhstan Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan Tajikistan Turkmenistan-Sports Business and Entertainment
Nazar Dovletli
ASHGABAT, Oct. 7—Actress and director Olga Volkova staged a production of the play Abundance that included actors from a private theatre company and recent graduates of the Russian Dramatic Theatre in Turkmenistan. Private theatre is emerging as a significant element in contemporary Turkmen culture.
The idea of private theatre was brought to life by a creative team that Igor Annaklychev started. "I was lucky in 2005 to find myself in a laboratory of young directors, a project of Mark Weil, the talented director and artistic leader of the Ilkhom theatre," he said.
The opening of a private theatre was as a result of creative comprehension. "It is at the beginning of a journey where everything is important – the actor's composition, the repertoire, the direction and relationships with authorities," he said.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that his was the first business experiment in the theatrical sphere. At the beginning of this year "ArtIst" staged its first plays, Tomorrow Was War based on the story by V. Vasiliyev, and I Do Not Want to Be a Dog, a fairy-tale by S. Belov and S. Kuvayev.
Their first production introduced the creative group to the country, drawing good reviews and strong public support. The company then produced their new work, Fun for Laughter, and rehearsals are now underway for The Big Tea-Party, based on the fairy tales of Chukovskiy.
In English "ArtIst" means "art of the East." While the company does not have its own stage, its creative concept is expressed in this very name—in the East, theatre takes place wherever there is an audience.

By Chris Gill. Museums, Issue 213, May 2010Published online: 30 April 2010
shanghai. As preparations for the World Expo in Shanghai (1 May-31 October) reach fever pitch, several new museums and cultural spaces are opening in readiness to welcome some of the 100 million visitors, which officials estimate will attend. Foreign journalists in Shanghai have estimated the total costs of the expo at around $45bn, not including off-site developments.
Leading the swathe of new cultural attractions is the Rockbund Art Museum, housed in a converted 1932 art deco building on Shanghai's historic riverfront, restored and with interior design by British architect David Chipperfield. The building was previously home to the Royal Asiatic Society, and is next to the former site of the Shanghai British Consulate. The museum, which is part of a larger development project, opens with a celebration of peasant creativity curated by the artist Cai Guo-Qiang, featuring DIY flying machines and a rooftop UFO.Countries including Spain and Holland are opening their own cultural centres away from the main expo site in downtown Shanghai, to host a series of art and culture-related events. The Dutch Cultural Centre opened in March, featuring a well received performance by conceptual artist Ibrahim Quraishi. The centre will host a show of works from the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven during the expo. Other new museums include a Chinese "hometown folk museum", a brick and tile museum, a numismatics museum and a water museum, while numerous "cultural sub-centres" are being developed in the suburbs. The newly opened Minsheng Art Museum plans a 30-year retrospective of Chinese art to open during the expo. It was also recently announced that the Shanghai Museum of Natural History will build a new three-storey museum to open in 2012. The Shanghai city government has issued a policy to bundle cultural activities away from the urban core, but make them easily accessible by the city's new extensive subway network. A $15m cultural centre development in the once remote Minhang district is being publicised as a prime example of the success of this initiative, with the local press saying it can be reached in only seven minutes on the subway—an optimistic claim.The centrally located Shanghai Art Museum was reported to be planning a large glass exhibition pavilion, but the plan appears to have been shelved due to costs and lack of interest from prospective exhibitors. In the Pudong district, home to the main World Expo site, the Zendai Himalayas Art Museum has opened a 3,000 sq. m "art supermarket". The museum said 80% of works had been sold in the 5,000 yuan ($700) category, with initial revenues reaching 570,000 yuan ($83,500) on the opening day.Ad-hoc spaces are appearing in downtown Shanghai, recent additions being the Nut and Neon, which host pop-up shows and cultural events. The districts of 50 Moganshan Road and Weihai Road 696 also boast new galleries and creative spaces. For a full report on the Shanghai World Expo, see our May print edition.
