Instructive - for a beginner, the pin is difficult to see, if it is not the 1st move
nice one
1. Ng7+ Kh6
2. Nxf5+ Kh5
3. g4++
Check mate is actually # :/
How much move plan behind the end !!!!!!!!!!
easy one
h6 is the key square in the puzzle (if you see that, than the rest is easy)
Even after the whole sequence,I don't see it that way,. There are several "keys," but to me the pawns represent the keys: the fact that the g6 pawn is pinned, is very much a "key" and the power of white's g-pawn to check the black king (with h3 pawn protecting) after black's f5 pawn is gone and black has no escape squares is also "key".
I was lucky to pick the right solution, but there are six moves that will all result in mate in 1. Just move the king off the main white diagonal.
Without Faults :) !!!
interesting combo
checkmate with a pawn is humiliation
Solved at first attempt.
The knight power !
double good knight

Sony May Have Succumbed to DDoS Temptation
December 15, 2014

December 10, 2014
Two password manager makers on Tuesday announced new features that allow their users to minimize the hassle of resetting passwords.

Sony's Cyber-Whodunit Is a Page-Turner
December 05, 2014
Who breached Sony Pictures' network and why continues to be a puzzle a week after news of the hack first emerged. Some speculate it was an inside job.

December 04, 2014

No audience makes for an awkward monologue
While Hurricane Sandy was hitting its blustery heights yesterday, NYC-based talk shows The Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night wtih Jimmy Fallon were set to tape Monday night's shows. Both went on with the show, but sent their audiences home to be with their families. So monologues, chats with guests and musical performances were all done...to nobody, which made for eerie viewing.
On The Late Show, David Letterman had Interpol frontman Paul Banks and you can watch him perform "Young Again" from his new album, Banks, below. No online video for Fallon's musical guest Imagine Dragons, but you can watch his intro to what was indeed a very special episode of his show, below.

Ultraista @ Echoplex - 10/19/12
The experience shows. Their U.S. live debut may have only been eight songs long, but the band imbued each album cut with an air of nonchalant cool. With the atmospheric consistency of their self-titled debut, and the help of some Piet Mondrian-like backing videos, the show was not unlike an art rave. It was an ideal manifestation of their art movement namesake that asserted surreal variations on minimalism are superior to more ornate styles. [Under the Radar]Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich's band with drummer Joey Waronker (Walt Mink, Beck) and singer Laura Bettinson (Dimbleby & Capper, FEMME), Ultraista played their first US shows this week and last, starting at LA's Echoplex (10/19), then hitting San Francisco's Independent (10/22), and finally NYC's Le Poisson Rouge last night (10/24). We missed them last night, but we did catch their LA show and pictures from that one are in this post.
The band will make their network TV debut when they play The Late Show with David Letterman on November 2. They also just made a video for "Our Song," which you can watch below.
That video, more pics, the setlist, and some high quality videos from Echoplex are below.

Diamond Rugs at The Bell House, 6/22/2012
Diamond Rugs, the latest hard-rocking, boot-stomping supergroup to hit the Mason-Dixon line between indie rock and alt-country, played a surprise show at Brooklyn's Bell House on Friday night. Featuring John McCauley and Robbie Cowell of Deer Tick, Black Lips' Ian Saint Pe (who apparently tied up the last Billboard reporter who interviewed him and was hoping I would let him do the same), Hardy Morris of Dead Confederate, Bryan Dufresne of Six Finger Satellite, and Los Lobos' Steve Berlin, D. Rugs played their self-titled debut front to back in front of a small but enthusiastic audience who requested an encore even though "that's all the songs we have," as McCauley reminded them.Diamond Rugs made their NYC live debut at The Bell House on Friday night (6/22) with Richard Buckner and Roomrunner in tow, two days before their opening slot for Alabama Shakes in Central Park. Did you go to the Bell House show? What did you think?
The somewhat impromptu set served as an unveiling of sorts for the band before their Sunday concert at Central Park Summerstage with Alabama Shakes and Robert Ellis, which was originally supposed to be their New York debut before their appearance tonight on The Late Show with David Letterman. After replenishing their onstage bin of Tecate, the band's central six members were joined by "some trombone player" and Diamond Rugs producers Adam Landry and Justin Collins of Nashville's Playground Sound Studios. The production team, who has also worked with Deer Tick and Sally Ford and the Sound Outside, contributed percussion and surprisingly deep baritone, respectively. [Billboard]
Diamond Rugs made their network television debut last night (6/25) on The Late Show with David Letterman and you can watch that performance of "Blue Mountains" below and check out more pictures from the Bell House show as well.

As you may remember, Tom Waits was to appear on The Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon back in April which ended up being postponed for "a later date TBA." Those appearances, both taped in NYC, have finally been rescheduled. Waits will be chatting up the hosts and playing songs from his 2011 album, Bad As Me, on Letterman on July 9 and Fallon on July 10.
In other Tom Waits television news, his song "Picture in a Frame" was used in a ballet sequence in this week's Bunheads, the new show from Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman Palladino (which is pretty good if you liked Gilmore Girls). You can watch it on YouTube (embed not available, sorry).
M. Ward played Letterman and Webster Hall (joined by Conor Oberst) with Lee Ranaldo (pics, video, setlist)
photos by Joe McCabe
[M. Ward] did not disappoint on Friday. While playing pretty much straight through for almost an hour-and-a-half, he included songs from all of his albums. There was also very little chit-chat, lots of guitar work, and an ever-changing backdrop provided by four windows... The band played some great ones like Poison Cup, Rollercoaster, To Go Home and Never Had Nobody Like You. Also included was one of his guitar solo songs, which is always nice to watch. -[Second Doubles]M Ward roped in Monsters of Folk collaborator Conor Oberst (who just announced a Carnegie Hall show) during his appearance at Webster Hall on Friday (5/11) to play "Vincent O'Brien", his second encore of the evening. A video of the two musicians performing that song is below. The show, which featured an appearance from the Lee Ranaldo Band as part of a string of dates that they're on together, was the kick-off to an East Coast tour and one of two appearances in NYC that day (he also performed at Late Night with David Letterman which aired that night). Pictures and the setlist from Webster Hall as well as a video from Letterman are in this post.
If you missed Letterman, Webster Hall, or the release of A Wasteland Companion then you're still in luck. Stream the new LP in full at M. Ward's site, and look for the guitar great to play Brooklyn at Prospect Park on August 7th with Yo La Tengo. Tickets are still available. M Ward also has a streamable performance from WNYC available as well.
More pics and setlist from Webster Hall and those videos are below...

Three or four chords, a handful of verses and a brazen guitar line are all Jason Pierce, a k a J. Spaceman, needs for songs that can heave along for a good 10 minutes without wearing out their welcome... While Mr. Pierce rasps out his vocals, the keyboards swell, backup singers deliver oohs and la-las, and guitars work themselves up toward scrabbling tremolo and feedback. Amid it all, Mr. Pierce presents himself as a disillusioned hedonist, a sufferer with himself to blame, a lost soul: alone in the vast turmoil of the music, mourning lost chances and wishing for more.Spiritualized with special guest Nikki Lane played Terminal 5 on May 7th, part of a round of dates for Jason Pierce and the band that brought them to Chicago and sees them hit Union Transfer in Philadelphia tonight (5/11).
On albums like this year's Sweet Heart Sweet Light, the band's seventh in 20 years, Spiritualized deploys a large cast: strings, horns, singers, free-jazz saxophonists, all taking their place in the music's tidal crest and ebb. Onstage things were leaner, with a five-man band and two female backup singers. Yet the music grew just as colossal -- perhaps even more so, with fewer distracting details in the grand expanse. -[NY Times]
If you miss thje shows, look for streaming audio via NPR from Spiritualized's appearance at 9:30 Club in DC last night (5/10). Spiritualized also appeared on Letterman on May 7 (the same night as T5). Watch that, along with more pictures and the setlist from the NY show, below...

He was supposed to be in NYC on April 24 & 25, but "will reschedule at a later date TBA." Damn
His people report: "TOM WAITS is heading to NYC this month to perform on late night television. It remains a mystery as to what gems the iconoclast will chose to perform on those stages...but he will be talking with the hosts as well as playing songs for the very first time live from his latest, Bad As Me, "the best-reviewed major album of 2011," according to metacritic.com."
He plays Letterman on April 24 & Fallon on April 25 (and hopefully somewhere else while he's in town!).

DOWNLOAD: Guided By Voices - "The Unsinkable Fats Domino" (MP3)
Guided By Voices at McCarren Park (more by Tamara Porras)
The still-going-strong Guided By Voices have a new LP in Let's Go Eat The Factory, which, as previously mentioned, is currently streaming in full at NPR. The band also recently released a new single for free download, "The Unsnkable Fats Domino", and played said single during last night's appearance at Late Night with David Letterman (1/3). Check out video from that performance, Greg Demos going down included, below.
Continue reading "Guided By Voices release free single, played it on Letterman (video & MP3) "
In case there was any doubt as to whether Guided By Voices were still a band:
After a fifteen year hiatus, the "classic line up" of Guided By Voices finished off its year-long reunion tour by recording an album of 21 new songs, making a deliberate effort to return to what bandleader Robert Pollard calls the "semi-collegial" approach of iconic GBV albums like Bee Thousand and Alien Lanes. Let's Go Eat The Factory is some kind of return to form: sprawling, variegated, and yet still recognizably and coherently Guided By Voices in both its literal and mythic senses. To celebrate the release of Let's Go Eat The Factory, Guided By Voices will be making a rare appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman on January 3, 2012.'Let's Go Eat The Factory' is available by mail order from Rockathon on January 1, 2012, and will be in stores nationwide on January 17. The record will be available digitally from iTunes at midnight tonight (12/20). Listen to the album now at NPR.

Argonauts make NYC debut Saturday, Black Star played a new song on Colbert, Mastodon on Letterman (videos)
by BBG
Black Star on Colbert
Big night for music on late night TV last night (and lately in general). You may have heard that Portishead played their first TV appearance in 13 years on Jimmy Fallon last night. Black Star, as promised, also played a new song "Fix Up" on The Colbert Report (but not at Irving Plaza, or the rest of their tour for that matter). Mastodon performed "Curl of The Burl" last night on David Letterman. Video of the Mastodon and Black Star (aka Talib Kweli and Yasiin Bey) performances, as well as the hip hop group's interview with Stephen Colbert is below.
Speaking of new music by Talib Kweli, his other project Idle Warship has a new album coming. Check out one of the new tracks at Rolling Stone. See them live Saturday in Brooklyn, or at one of the other dates listed below.
Reminder: Mastodon's tour hits Terminal 5 with Dillinger Escape Plan and Red Fang on 11/19. Tickets are still available.
Meanwhile, as previously mentioned, former Dillinger Escape Plan vocalist Dimitri Minkanakis's band Argonauts (with Dave Witte & John Adubato of Burnt By The Sun, Brett Bamberger of East of The Wall) will play their debut NYC show at ABC No Rio on Saturday (10/8). They'll be joined by Alkahest, Thou, and The Body.
As also mentioned, Jeff the Brotherhood, now bros with Jack White, play Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight (10/6).
Mastodon & Black Star videos from last night as well as some Argonauts live video, below...

John Doe released "Keeper", playing Letterman, Rockwood & Soundfix (dates include a free show tonight)
X's John Doe is in NYC to to promote his new album "Keeper" which follows his release from earlier this year, a collaboration with Jill Sobule. John will make three live/tv appearances while he's here. Tonight (9/7), catch a free performance at 7pm at Soundfix Records in Brooklyn. Thursday (9/8) catch John at Rockwood Music Hall where he'll probably play a longer show. Thursday night watch him on Letterman!
If you miss him, John won't be gone long, but when he returns it will be the more punk rock version of himself. X just announced a show at Maxwell's that happens on their fall tour that also includes two NYC shows and a gig in Asbury Park.

Sallie Ford @ Newport Folk Fest
Partisan Records was repping hard in Newport over the weekend. Between the fest itself and a bunch of afterparties, there were all kinds of Deer Tick-related collaborations going on including Partisan's Mountain Man playing the fest and later joining Middle Brother on stage, and Partisan's Sallie Ford & the Sound Outside playing the fest (pics in this post) in addition to Sallie singing John Prine's "In Spite of Ourselves" with Deer Tick's John McCauley, twice - both at the fest and at an afterparty. Video of both times can be watched below.

You may have noticed that the electronic PSU directory had been very slow to open for quite some time. Sometime mid-January, it unilaterally "checked out" and no longer functioned. OIS was aware of the decline in the directory response, and a few months ago, staff started working on new functionality. We now have two new electronic processes for the electronic PSU directory. You will find new processes on the PSU web page under the "University Directory" and "Find People" links found at the bottom of the home page.

The apartment was clean and the hosts was very friendly.
Perfect location, only 2 minutes walk to the nearest metro station. There was a lot of bakeries and brasseries in the area.
We had a great stay in Julie and Guillaumes apartment!
We had a great stay. The place was exactly as described, very clean and tidy.
Also, J & G were very flexible, fitting in with our travel arrangements and forthcoming with recommendations for local restaurants.
It was really a very nice and cosy appartement in a great area with metro stations in short walkig distance. And many thanks for the great restaurant recommondations.
Nous avons passé 3 nuits chez Julie et Guillaume. Même si nous ne les avons pas rencontrés, ils ont été très disponibles via courriel. Ils nous ont également fait de très bonnes recommandations de restos, activités et boutiques près de l'appart. L'appartement est situé à quelques pas de 2 stations de métro et très près de la basilique Sacré-Cœur. Merci encore!
Gui and Julie accommodated us on the shortest of notices. Their place is walking distance to the Sacré-Cœur and 5 minute walk to 2 different subway stations. Their place is on 5th floor of their building, which can be a trek but should be expected in Paris. Their place is super cozy and is exactly as pictured. We felt very comfortable in their home. Thanks again so much Gui and Julie for allowing us to stay at your place!
Appartement proche du métro, supermarché, boulangerie et snacks : très pratique ! Rue calme, nous avons passé un bon séjour. Merci d'avoir diligenté un ami pour nous recevoir et d'avoir été à notre écoute. Pat et MNo
We stayed in the appartement of Julie&Guillaume for 5 days with 2 persons and it was perfect for us! We really recommend you this place.
The communication was great, they gave us a lot of information about Paris (transport, hotspots, nice restaurants/bars, etc...), and a friend of them checked us in at the appartement she was very kind and helpfull.
The appartement was very clean (!) and had everything we needed. The kitchen has a nice bar, ideal for breakfast in the morning (coffees were delicious)
The bedroom is very nice with a lot of sunlight in it. Bathroom is a little small but ok, and again very clean. The appartement is near to a metrostation, wich brings you quick to different kind of places @ Paris. If you leave the appartement you can walk up to Sacre Coeur, you will come in the Montmartre area wich has a lot of bars, restaurants, cafés,...
We really had a nice stay in Paris, thanks a part to the lovely appartement and the help of Julie & Guillaume. Thanks a lot!
We have been in the studio over new years eve 2013 and it was just amazing. Everything you need for cooking, sleeping and living is there. The studio is clean and has enough space even for more people.
The way to public transport is just about 5 minutes and groceries stores as well as backerys are just around the corner.
Guillaume was a fantastic host. We arrived extremely late one night, and we had great directions on how to get to the flat. The place was small but very cozy and had all of the necessities. I would definitely recommend it!
Even if the apartment does not look in the center on a map, it's easy to get soon on Champs Elysees with line 13. The apartment is functionnal and can host 5 persons.
Communication with Guillaume was very good.
Will be back there.
Guillaume and his company were great guests, friendly and respectful. Would be welcomed back!
Des jeunes gens très sympathiques et intéressants !!!
Aucun problème pour recevoir ce couple.
Super couple très agréable a vivre, au plaisir de se revoir.
Guillaume and Julie were the perfect guests! Super friendly and clean. They' re always welcome at my place in Amsterdam!
Guillaume was a great guest. He left the room exactly as it was before he arrived.

Slightly OT....selling art
My cousin is a very talented artist and he's looking for an online place to post his art for sale. Any suggestions besides something like ebay? Is there a place on line where people go to seek art/artists? He's posted his stuff on deviant art.com which is probably not something that comes to mind first. He also has posted on facebook, but that's not really sales oriented....any suggestions would be most welcome.
Etsy is the only place that comes to mind. It's not an auction place, but can be pretty crowded in terms of what is for sale.
For giggles, he might want to visit regretsy to see what NOT to do ;)
I have struggled to find art I like online. Somehow I don't think it's a good medium for art purchases, I think I need to see the piece in person to really feel anything about it. At least, I am guessing that is what's missing for me.
Blogs are becoming so popular, perhaps consider starting one with his art and discussions on their meaning to him. Many sell their items and link to other blogs. He could do both . I'm intrigued with all available on blogs and how many have been advertised or shown in magazines. He might run a search on art blogs and see what comes up.
I saw a story on the news where artists supply their art to places where you can rent art. I don't know how someone becomes involved with this, though. It seemed interesting because the artist they interviewed said his works get so much more exposure that way.
People can either rent the art temporarily and change it out every few months, as a trial in their home, and they can get a credit towards purchase.
Thanks technicolor....I don't know if he's explored blogs or not....
Writersblock, I've not heard of that one....I'll let him know.
gscience chick, renting art would be interesting...I did try borrowing art from the library for my office for awhile, but the problem was hanging it correctly as the different pieces are different sizes.
Thanks every one for all the suggestions...I'll pass them along....I should've asked sooner as, when I was looking for art for our library, I could've browsed all these sites.
This is where a lot of artists I know sell their work fineartamerica.com
I haven't tried it myself (I use Facebook and my (soon to be) blog), but I have heard good things. As much as I detest Facebook, I have to admit, I have had some good success with selling on there.

Every BG, its the same damn story while trying to farm honor: Get lit up with dots, fear spammed until on DR, death coiled, while being hit with drain life channel, if I try to run away its game over as well with curse of exhaustion. Sure I lay traps, scatter, and masters call to try and get away but by that time dots have pretty much tore me a new one. Even when a healer on my team is present healing me, they eventually stop because I end up doing no damage on the warlock and they'd rather spend their precious mana on a different dps.
Widow venom doesnt even do much against warlocks, not to mention if there is a healer around its just instantly dispelled and their resources > my resources.
Hunter PvP right now is just pathetic. Classes like ret pallies I feel I have a good chance against but for the most part casters and warriors just arent even fun to try and kite or kill.
Ive tried every imaginable spec, pet combo and it certainly isnt what I had envisioned for the beginning of the expansion.
90 Undead Mage
iv seen a dk do 220k healing against a enhance shammy in a 1v 1 situation
affliction lock self healing is overpowered, but theres a few things in the front of the line
Yes, please. It's like season 2 all over again.
...right after nerfing Frost DKs, Feral Druids, and Arms Warriors.
Port + fear + death coil + instant howl of terror + curse of exhaustion
The problem isn't "melee" it's Warriors. They're immune to your main form of defense and don't care about snares when they have so many teleports.
Fear breaks so fast on damage now I don't know how any of you are having a problem with it, honestly. In a typical situation, mine lasts all of 1.5 seconds before my own dots break it, let alone if somebody else hits the target. Locks have always been more the "tank caster". If you take away a locks tank-ness, you would have to give them more ways of dealing with not only melee, but every other class as well. Self healing may be a little over the top right now, but there are so many other things that are MUCH more broken and in dire need of attention, especially in the case of the poor hunters.
So you have an issue with Hunter PvP defense, escapes, and mechanics...and you asked for affliction Warlock nerfs? How does that make any sense?
Stop putting your port in terrible locations, and try using curse of exhaustion + soul burn port.
Port + fear + death coil + instant howl of terror + curse of exhaustion
Game isn't balanced around terrible players. Good locks have absolutely no trouble fearing warriors during their berserker rage downtime, jumping charges (Skill right?) and kiting with CoE + soulburn port. Locks are more than fine, and are only not on the top QQ list of the forums because they don't crit you for 20k like other classes.
90 Orc Warlock
I agree. What we need to do here is attack the whole self-healing range of aff locks. I suggest a few changes:
- Modify drain life so the life drained no longer scales with crit or damage ... maybe make it restore a tiny percentage of the warlocks health restored per tick. Top this off by lowering the duration so any gains from haste will be insignificant in PvP.
- Adjust siphon life in the same way, and make it a random chance per tick of corruption rather than a consistent drain on every tick so warlocks can no longer rely on it.
- Remove any death coil and haunt scaling with the new health pools so they only restore a tiny portion of overall health.
Does this sound like a reasonable level of nerfing to Affliction lock self healing?
Historically any warlock that shows up into arena against a hunter team has amazing odds to win the match just based on how Warlocks work.
Warlocks in general right now are broken. With some pvp gear, and the lack of a true 50% MS effect I am drain tanked all day until I am dead and they are left at around 80% at BEST.
How is this even fair? Drain life was balanced around a 50% MS and now we have 10% and if its against a hunter team, dont even expect that widow venom put up since it will be dispelled ASAP and the resource cost is not fine for any sort of competitive PVP play.
100 Undead Warlock
except drain life was a joke with 50% ms up. hell drain life was barely acceptable with no ms.
85 Orc Warlock
A class with limited defenses that relies on dots to deal damage and self heal to stay alive can sometimess kill a class that can't dispel and self heal itself?
Flawed design imo.
You mean playing god mode with training wheels? Nobody can take any warlock here seriously if you're defending that warlocks have LIMITED Defenses.
3 fears until immune to DR, demonic portal (too many warlocks dont even use this), soul link, death coil. You have a lot of tools at your disposal, and when most of the medium to long CD's are used up your fear is probably back off DR.
I am not even talking 1 v 1 against a hunter and warlock.
Even in group play, its damn near impossible to do any sort of damage when its a warlock with a healer.
SELF healing is a big problem, if you dont see it as one, you enjoy being overpowered and are delusional.
Threats of violence. We take these seriously and will alert the proper authorities.

Harassing or discriminatory language. This will not be tolerated.

BROOKLYN -- For the second game in a row vs. the Brooklyn Nets, Paul Pierce didn't have much of an impact.
The Washington Wizards certainly didn't look like NBA or Eastern Conference title contenders Friday night against the Brooklyn Nets.
Brook Lopez sat in front of his corner locker draped in red towels. The quirky Brooklyn Nets center wasn't making a fashion statement or an odd protest amid trade rumors.
So much for Paul Pierce facing off with Kevin Garnett for the first time since 2007.
No matter how unrealistic some might find Paul Pierce for believing that the Wizards could compete for a championship before coming here, he has them convinced them that they can.

Not just a celebration of the New York Review of Books (though it is certainly that), Martin Scorsese and David Tedescho's documentary chronicles many of the historical, political and cultural landmarks of the past half century, through the prism of that august publication's intellectual insight and rigour. Along the way, they interview (or unearth archival footage of) some of the finest minds of the period, including Joan Didion, Gore Vidal, Susan Sontag, Norman Mailer, Noam Chomsky, Stephen Jay Gould, Andrei Sakharov, Vaclev Havel, Oliver Sacks and James Baldwin. As you might expect, the film sparkles with wit and wisdom, erudition and elucidation.
"A bracing film about the value of radical ideas and the importance of being courageous enough to consider them." — Norman Wilner, Now
Do your kids spend too much time on electronic devices? Do you? Suzanne and her husband decided to change that. They abandoned C21st comforts to take their three kids to a cabin off the grid in the remote Yukon wilderness for nine months. It was a grand adventure, a return to the self-sustaining pioneering lifestyle of the kind described by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and it transformed this Canadian family's understanding of "Quality time".
"A magnificent film." — David Suzuki
"Timely and inspring. 5 stars." — Michael Reid, Times Colonist
"Family-friendly, heartwarming, uplifting and important." — Allan MacInnis, Alienated in Vancouver
Like 12th graders everywhere, the students at Shanti Bhavan School are preparing for their graduation exams. But imagine the pressure: they're the first of India's "untouchables" to be granted the opportunity to study for the tests. And if they fail, the fate of the non-profit school which has been their home for a decade lies in the balance...
"A genuinely moving and inspiring documentary that will resonate with viewers." — Craig Takeuchi, The Georgia Straight
"Had me crying and cheering at the end..." — Alex Hutt, Canadian Film Review
Vancouver film scholar Michael van den Bos returns with an all-new edition of Dancing in the Dark – The Surreal, The Sublime and The Spectacular. Michael will introduce a choreographic compilation of delirious, divine and dazzling dances from such films as The Band Wagon, Cabaret, Cabin in the Sky, Cover Girl, Dames, Kiss Me Kate, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Singin' in the Rain, Swing Time and White Nights among other terpsichorean treats.
This crisp, unexpected drama from regular Laurent Cantet collaborator (and Les Revenants creator) Robin Campillo oscillates between thriller, social realism, and gay love story without ever missing a beat. It begins with a classic mis-step. Bourgeois businessman Daniel foolishly picks up an Eastern European hustler at the Gare du Nord, and invites him back to his apartment the next day. But when he buzzes in his new acquaintance, he's in for an unpleasant surprise…
"Fascinating... Sleek, shape-shifting... by turns a frightening home-invasion drama, a tender love story and a tense hide-and-seek thriller." — Guy Lodge, Variety
"A surprisingly resonant thrill ride." — Bob Mondello, NPR
"Explores interlocking themes of sexuality, immigration and power dynamics with a cleareyed sensitivity and refuses to demonize even its shadiest characters." — Stephen Holden, New York Times
Two years to the day since the collapse of the garment factory in Rana Plaza, Bangladesh, that claimed the lives of 1129 workers, Eco Fashion Week, Fashion Revolution Day and VIFF Vancity Theatre present this inspiring documentary about individuals and organizations forging change. 'Traceability' is the aim to have a proper trail for every single step in the supply chain. As well as where, it wants consumers to be concerned with how garments are made. Sharpe's film follows young designer Laura Seigel as she seeks to connect her work with the people and the places who manufacture them, putting an altogether brighter spin on "globalization".
In your lifetime, the history of photography has seen a seismic shift, the dramatic change from film to digital. Harvey Wang was mid-career when the tools of his craft were made nearly obsolete. He interviewed more than 20 photographers and prominent figures in the field, including Jerome Liebling, George Tice, David Goldblatt, Sally Mann, Eugene Richards, Ruud van Empel, John Cohen and Jeff Jacobson, as well as Steven Sasson, co-inventor of the digital camera, and Thomas Knoll, co-creator of Photoshop.
Fed up with her abusive family situation, lack of school prospects and the "boys' law" in the neighborhood, Marieme (Karidja Touré) starts a new life after meeting a group of three free-spirited girls. She changes her name, her style, drops out of school and starts stealing to be accepted into the gang. Tomboy director Celine Sciamma may not approve of these choices but she revels in the exuberance of adolescent discovery - the euphoria of first love, fast friends, and living on the edge - while lip-synching to Rihanna.
"It's the feminist answer to Boyhood, yet it manages to dig deeper ... Girlhood is one of the most exceptional films you'll see this year. Truly a must-see. Highly recommended!" — Jeff Nelson, DVD Talk
"One of the best coming of age movies in years!" — Eric Kohn, Indiewire
"Beautifully observed, precisely directed and acted with wonderful conviction, it pulls us into the life of its protagonist in a deeply involving way." — Kenneth Turan, LA Times
A favourite at VIFF 2014, this enormously affectionate film celebrates the artisans who crafted fabulous haute-couture outfits for Dior, Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent: M. Gérard Lognon, a third-generation specialist in pleat-making; M. Bruno Legeron, a designer of perfect artificial flowers whose atelier opened in 1880; and M. Lorenzo Ré, one of three remaining sculptors of wooden forms for hat-making. But can small remain beautiful in today's big money world?
Inspired by the true story of a Japanese office worker who travelled from Tokyo to wintery North Dakota to dig up the loot buried by Steve Buscemi at the end of Fargo, this piquant gem is a funny but poignant portrait of madness and obsession. It also opens up an intriguing dialogue between the Zellner Brothers' brand of humane comedy and the Coens' quirky original.
"Inspirational and devastating." — Eric Kohn, Indiewire
Bert Bush was a fixture in Vancouver's film & video scene for over 45 years. He supervised printing for Trans Canada Films before opening his own post-production firm, Bush Edit House, at the foot of Lonsdale in 1971. Bert cut film & video, rented equipment and mentored young filmmakers until his death in 2006. When archivists were invited to investigate his legacy, they found nearly 100 films of all kinds — mixing BC tourism titles (A Date with BC, A Place To Be) with cautionary tales of alcohol abuse (Voices) & heart disease (Heartbeat), a 'how-to' film about placing a long-distance call without operator assistance (DDD- Direct Distance Dialing) and rare examples of locally-produced 50's & 60's TV ads. Curated by Colin Preston and Christine Hagemoen.
The charismatic Giuseppe Marinoni has been making some of the most desirable bicycle frames in Canada for decades. A competitive cyclist in Italy in his youth, he decides, at age 75, to attempt a World Record for distance cycled in one hour for his age group. Giuseppe's determination and perseverance lead him back to his native Italy for his training and, ultimately, his attempt at the record. This is a film not only for the spandex-and-helmet crowd but for anyone who believes that a man's reach should exceed his grasp.
The entire Indian continent sets its annual clock by the coming of the monsoon season. The rains bring life to barren fields, stave off drought and starvation, bring the economy back to life… But they also bring disaster, death and destruction. Gunnarsson traces the trajectory of the season from the southeastern state of Kerala, where the monsoons first hit land, across the continent to Assam in the northwest. In a word: elemental.

What would happen if you could take your quiet desperation and channel it into song? Office drudge Carol does just that, and what starts as an exercise in therapeutic self-expression turns out to have serious drawbacks. In short order she is visited by the cops, fired, and worst of all, becomes the fixation of her ex-boss, "Asshole Dave", who quits to pursue his own rock-n-roll dream, and insists on Carol coming along. This oddball musical comedy comes from the peculiar mind of Vancouver filmmaker Kris Elgstrand (Doppelganger Paul).
"Bushnell and Dryborough make for a wonderful comedic odd couple, delivering what finally amounts to a heartfelt search for self-improvement." — Andrew Parker, Dork Shelf
"Often gob-smackingly good... Strangely beautiful... Uber-quirky." — Susan G Cole, Now magazine
Told in fourteen fixed-angle, single shot, individual tableaus that parallel Christ's journey to his own crucifixion,Stations ... is both an indictment of fundamentalist faith and the articulation of an impressionable teen's struggle to find her own path in life. Though from the outside Maria lives in the modern world, her family and her heart are faithful to a Catholic radicalism that requires sacrifice and devotion at every turn.
"This brilliant and subtle comedy about teenage martyrdom argues that extremism has no place in the modern world." — David Jenkins, Little White Lies
"Passionate, generous, witty; Dietrich Bruggemann's study of a fanatical Catholic family renews one's faith in the power of slow art movies to change the world." — London Evening Standard
A girl's best friend is her dog in this exuberantly odd political parable from Hungary. When a new law places onerous taxes on the owners of mutts, the streets of Budapest start to fill up with abandoned dogs - including Hagen, beloved pet of 13-year-old Lili. While the child defies her father and the odds to try to track down her dog, Hagen suffers a series of grueling adventures involving various ill-intentioned individuals. "Fierce and beautiful." — The New York Times
"A fierce and beautiful Hungarian parable about a girl, her dog, and the uprising that's sparked after they are separated ... When the dogs break free and run through the streets in White God, demolishing barriers and biting the hands that have hit them, the movie takes a leap into bold political metaphor, offering up a memorable image of the great unwashed gone (literally) barking mad." — Manhola Dargis, The New York Times
"White God confirms Mundruczó's position as one of Europe's most exciting, unpredictable and technically competent directors. In a world where so many filmmakers seem to rework the same material over and over, he is a true wild card — a filmmaker with 'un certain regard' if ever there was one." — Nick Roddick, Sight & Sound
"Thrillingly strange ... tense, stunningly staged set-pieces recall the uncanny power of Hitchcock's The Birds [...] A risky shift toward the poetically aberrant that would not work if Mundruczo's storytelling weren't so rousing and emotionally purposeful — not to mention morally challenging, as man and dog are accorded equally flawed, vengeful psychologies in the film's universe." — Guy Lodge, Variety

Giteau wants Wallaby return
ESPN Staff
October 19, 2012
Matt Giteau is playing for Toulon in France © Getty Images
Toulon centre Matt Giteau is ready to return for Australia if required after making peace with Wallabies head coach Robbie Deans.
A spokesman for the Wallabies confirmed to the Sydney Morning Herald that Giteau - who criticised Deans after being left out of the Wallabies World Cup squad last year - has offered his services to an Australia side which is beset with injuries at the end of a tough season.
The Wallabies face New Zealand this weekend in a Bledisloe Cup clash before departing for their end-of-season tour of the northern hemisphere this November. Giteau, who has 92 caps for his country, has reported sent Deans a series of messages saying he is eager to return to the international arena.
Deans is more likely to be interested in a return for Toulouse scrum-half Luke Burgess with first-choice scrum-half Will Genia sidelined through injury and Nick Phipps still inexperienced at Test level. But the Australia head coach played down the prospect of asking the Australian Rugby Union to consider allowing Burgess to be eligible for selection on the end-of-year tour to Europe
"It would be a big precedent, it would be something that, if they considered it, they wouldn't take lightly," Deans told the Sydney Morning Herald. "More importantly we've got a couple of good blokes here. Brett Sheehan's stepped in and done a great job. He's been fantastic within the group, and [Phipps] is responding to the challenge superbly."

Truly one of the greatest films ever made.
The movie features a terrific cast starring Marlon Brando in one of his greatest performances, Eva Marie Saint, Karl Malden, Rod Steiger, and Lee J. Cobb.
They created a powerful melodrama of greed & corruption, of the struggle with compromise and conscience, of loss and redemption.
A classic, well worth viewing. Great acting, excellent plot. Timeless themes, with a message for all ages, including our current age.Published 1 day ago by Patrick Lorenz
One of the all-time great films, with Brando's acting superlative. Filmed on location along the New Jersey waterfront, it reflects the gritty social realism of that period's films. Read morePublished 7 days ago by Franz Kafka
This is my favorite movie. I was waiting anxiously for the re-mastered edition. When I heard the Criterion version was coming out I was thrilled. Read morePublished 10 days ago by Robert Arroyo
Such a classic! Brando breaks your heart at every turn. Tough guy, in a tough neighborhood, with a tender heart, yearning to be understood and loved.Published 13 days ago by nica
This is just a great movie. Based on real events. No candy-coating. Bleak, overpowering scenery sets the mood. A classic.Published 13 days ago by outfoxedya
