Friuli Diary 2001 - Sunday, Oct. 7
The higher-quality producers, however, stand out, including both smaller artisanal wineries and the substantial Vigneti Pittaro in Codroipo, with its broad hectares of vineyards and classy, modern winery facility that someone half-jokingly likened to "Mondavi in Friuli."
Jovial winery owner Pietro Pittaro has also assembled a high-quality Museo del Vino (wine museum) with a large collection of Italian wine memorabilia including intact bottles that go back to the 1600s.
After a leisurely tour of the museum, we adjourned to the tasting room for samples of several Pittaro wines:
Vigneti Pittaro 2000 Mousqué Vino da Tavola - Pleasant, aromatic, peach-pit scent and flavor, crisp and tart.
Vigneti Pittaro 2000 Friuli Grave Sauvignon - Very pale brass. Citrus and discreet grassiness, lean and racy.
Vigneti Pittaro 1994 Agresto Vino da Tavola - (Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Refosco.) Clear ruby. Lovely perfumed currant scents; full, textured red-plum and currant flavors, lemon-squirt acidity and green tannins. An excellent example of the great potential for Friuli varietal blends.
A guided tour was followed by a casual lunch at Cá dei Angeli, a pleasant trattoria in Passariano highlighted by an Italian saying painted on an overhead beam: "Bevi? Morrai! Non bevi? Morrai lo stesso! Perciò bevi! ("Drink? You'll die! Don't drink? You'll die all the same! So drink ...")
The meal was a large one, and the courses were excellent: Salame al Vino Bianco (sausage braised in white wine) and grilled polenta; pasticio di radicchio (a rich, "meaty" risotto with onions and bitter red radicchio); and risotto al zucco with sweet pumpkin. The wines, however, were anonymous house carafe wines, a tart white and a rather thin and sour red.
With shredded softshell crab on a fresh salad "Triestina" followed by steamed mussels:
Giostino B. Ruggeri 2000 Prosecco di Valdobbiadone Extra Dry - A fresh, crisp and clean sparkler showing refreshing appley aroma and flavor.
With fried whitebait and tiny French vegetables; "Jota" marinara (a thick stew of white beans and fish); and a luscious buckwheat maltagliatte pasta with octopus ragú:
Lupinc 2800 Carso Friuli Vitovska - Fresh and appealing, acacia blossom and wool; tart and citric, cleansing, wonderful with fish.
With sea bass steamed with wild mushrooms carpaccio:
Kante 1999 Carso Friuli Malvasia - Pale color. Whiffs of candied ginger and butterscotch over white tropical fruit. Tropical fruit flavors follow the nose with tart citric acidity beneath. An exceptional wine.
Plum sorbet, nectarine with amaretto, ice cream cake nougat.
Have you tasted these wines?

Men's Basketball Beats Rival Salisbury
FSU (4-3) trailed by as many as eight points in the second half before making a 10-2 run to tie the game at 57 with just over six minutes remaining. Junior Jason Peterson (Aberdeen, Md./Aberdeen) sparked the rally by scoring seven of the 10 points during the run.
After a basket from Salisbury (4-4) and free throw by junior Dawan El-Amin (Baltimore, Md./Academy Park, Pa.), Owen gave the Bobcats their first lead since early in the first half by hitting a three-pointer to make the score 61-59. The Sea Gulls would battle back to take the lead at 65-64 before Coursey's jumper.
Owen led the Bobcats with a career-high 24 points on 6-of-12 shooting, including five three-pointers. Peterson added 19 points and six rebounds while junior Kamillo Rosenthal (Munich, Germany/Bishop Sullivan) grabbed a team-high seven rebounds.
FSU shot a season-high 75 percent (18-of-24) from the free throw line and 47.1 percent (8-of-17) from three-point range.
Salisbury was led by Rico Stewart's 18 points, with Sean Rozanski and Segun Odumeru adding 12 and 11 points, respectively.

Title: | Representation and Variation in Substance-free Phonology: A case study in Celtic | Add Dissertation |

Abstract: | This thesis presents a comprehensive analysis of the phonological patterns of two varieties of Brythonic Celtic in the framework of substance-free phonology. I argue that cross-linguistic variation in sound patterns does not derive solely from differences in grammars (implemented as Optimality Theoretic constraint rankings). Instead, I adopt the substance-free framework, based on the principle of modularity and autonomy of the phonological component, to account for cross-linguistic phonological and phonetic variation. Phonological representations in substance-free phonology are built up without regard to the physical implementation of phonological units, on the basis of the system of contrasts and patterns of alternation. Although this insight is not new when couched in terms of a language-specific assignment of a set of universal phonological features, I argue that the mapping between phonology and phonetics is also not universal and deterministic, and reject the universality of the feature set. Instead, I argue for a rich interface between phonology and phonetics. Based on this understanding of the nature of variation, I provide a holistic analysis of the sound systems of two closely related languages: Pembrokeshire Welsh and Bothoa Breton. I propose an account in terms of a rich representational theory. Among other proposals, I defend the need for surface ternary contrasts, which I propose to implement using feature geometry. I also show that the substance-free approach, which decouples phonological representation from phonetic realization, strikes the correct balance between innatist and emergentist approaches to phonological markedness; I demonstrate this by way of an extensive case study of laryngeal phonology, which leads to a reinterpetation of the approach known as 'laryngeal realism'. I also argue that the phonological component of grammar should allow constraints with prima facie undesirable factorial consequences, if such constraints are needed to account for functionally unmotivated sound patterns, and discuss the consequences of this approach for the substance-free nature of phonological computation. |

Admission to the childhood education program is highly selective. Applicants are expected to have a strong general education background in the liberal arts and sciences and a demonstrated interest in and commitment to working with diverse student populations in educational settings.
Applicants must have earned a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 (on a 4.00 scale) from an accredited college or university, with the completion of a general liberal arts and sciences curriculum and a major in an academic discipline. Admission to the childhood education program -- and teaching certification in New York -- also requires the successful completion, or the equivalent, of at least one semester of college-level study in a language other than English.
The M.S. program in childhood education has established two prerequisite courses in education:
These prerequisite courses are offered at Ithaca College multiple times each year. Ithaca College undergraduates who plan to apply to the childhood education program are encouraged to take these courses prior to graduation. Applicants from other accredited institutions can submit evidence of course-equivalent syllabi and grades of B or better in these courses, as well as satisfactory completion of 50 hours of course-connected, school-based field experiences. Childhood education applicants who have not completed these prerequisites may be admitted provisionally with the expectation that these prerequisites be met according to stipulations established by the graduate chair.
Applicants are strongly encouraged to take -- prior to admission, for advising purposes -- the Liberal Arts and Sciences Test (LAST), one of the three examinations required for New York State teacher certification. For information about this exam, see
Teacher Certification Examinations
A total of 38 credits, including a full professional semester of student teaching, is required.
A cumulative average of 3.00 or better must be maintained in order to graduate.
This program is designed for candidates seeking initial teaching certification in childhood education, grades 1-6.
Childhood Education Program Coursework (38 credits):
EDUC 50000 | Professional Development Seminar | 0 |
EDUC 50100 | Literacy Development and Second Language Acquisition | 3 |
EDUC 50300 | The Exceptional Child and the Classroom | 3 |
EDUC 51210 | Seminar in Reflective Practice | 3 |
EDUC 60000 | Professional Semester in Education | 6 |
EDUC 61000 | Teaching and Learning in Diverse Elementary Schools | 3 |
EDUC 62000 | Curriculum and Instruction in Elementary School Social Studies | 3 |
EDUC 63000 | Curriculum and Instruction in Elementary School Science | 3 |
EDUC 64000 | Curriculum and Instruction in Elementary School Mathematics | 3 |
EDUC 65000 | Curriculum and Instruction in Elementary School Language Arts and Literacy | 3 |
HPEG 57700 | Teaching and Learning for Healthy Growth and Development | 3 |
COMM 56500 | Educational Technology for Childhood Educators | 3 |
ART 52500 | Integrating Visual Art in the Elementary School Curriculum | 1 |
MUED 65000 | Music for Elementary Classroom Teachers | 1 |
Teacher certification requirements (noncredit workshops):
Prior to graduation, all childhood education students must have attended and participated in these three state-required workshops, each of which is offered several times a year on the Ithaca College campus:
Professional Portfolio and Action Research Project
In lieu of a thesis requirement and/or a comprehensive exam, the childhood education program includes the graduation requirement that all students complete both a professional development electronic portfolio and an action research project. The professional portfolio provides evidence that the childhood education candidate has met College, state, and national standards for effective teaching, and its preparation begins during the first semester of the childhood education program. The action research project is also a yearlong project: the research proposal is developed in the summer and fall, data is collected and analyzed in the spring, and the research report is written and presented in the final summer semester of the program.
Professional Semester in Education
During the spring semester in the program, childhood education students complete two student teaching experiences, one in grades 1-3 and the other in grades 4-6. Student teaching is a full-time commitment requiring full days in public schools and additional hours spent in planning, assessment, after-school activities, and a weekly seminar. Childhood education students are not allowed to enroll in additional courses or participate in varsity sports, musical ensembles, or theater performances at the College during the professional semester.

Greeting from Russia!
Hello all! I'm from Russia. I live in the central region in Voronezh city, it is situated about 300 miles to south, from the Moscow. There are no mountains here, so we have some small hills, and a some kind of snowpark. I am snowboarding since 12 years. But, I had a 2 year break, after injure. Now, I'm actually begining to do freestyle.
Recently I've bought a new board - Santa Cruz Allstar and boots - some kind of Nitro. Actually, today there is no snow at all in our city. But i heard at radio, that next week will be much colder. It gives me some kind of hope, that it will become snowing. I,ve also have been in big mountains - in Andorra, in Europe. But last years, there are not much snow too. And "I have a Dream, that one day" I'll move to USA. I've always was dreaming about it. So, probably that is all. If you want to know anything - just ask me

I'd love to ride Elbrus. I've checked into their summer boarding camp and it is actually pretty reasonable considering all they provide you. That would be a tough vacation to get the wife to agree to, hehe.
Welcome to the board. Hope you enjoy your stay! |

POLICE have warned charitable Queenslanders to beware when giving money to doorknockers claiming to be collecting on behalf of the states flood victims.
Queenslanders have been advised to check the identity of any doorknockers and internet-based appeals to make sure they are not scams.
To ensure an appeal is real, donors should ask doorknockers or collectors to provide identification, ask the name of the charity and check that it is a registered charity.
Anyone who is unsure whether a collection is legitimate should decline and donate instead to a registered charity group.
People can donate to the Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal by calling 1800 219 028, at www.qld.gov.au or at major banks.

Fletcher, J.S: Scarhaven Keep. V1. 12 Jan 2009
Joseph Smith Fletcher (7 February 1863 - 30 January 1935) was a British journalist and writer. He wrote about 200 books on a wide variety of subjects, both fiction and non-fiction. He was one of the leading writers of detective fiction in the "Golden Age".
Fletcher was born in Halifax, West Yorkshire, son of a clergyman. He was educated at Silcoates School in Wakefield. After some study of law, he became a journalist. His first books published were poetry, and he then moved on to write numerous works of both historical fiction and history, many dealing with Yorkshire. He was made a fellow of the Royal Historical Society. In 1914 he wrote his first detective novel and went on to write over a hundred, latterly featuring private investigator, Ronald Camberwell. Wikipedia Excerpt Jerramy, thirty years' stage-door keeper at the Theatre Royal, Norcaster, had come to regard each successive Monday morning as a time for the renewal of old acquaintance. For at any rate forty-six weeks of the fifty-two, theatrical companies came and went at Norcaster with unfailing regularity. The company which presented itself for patronage in the first week of April in one year was almost certain to present itself again in the corresponding week of the next year.

THIS STORY HAS BEEN FORMATTED FOR EASY PRINTING Law says crisis not focus of meeting By Ralph Ranalli, Globe Staff, 7/22/2002
An estimated 750,000 young Catholics will worship and study together, and Pope John Paul II is expected to attend the celebration, which begins tomorrow. ''I think it will probably be pretty much the way World Youth Day always is,'' Law said in a brief news conference after celebrating Mass at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross with about 300 of the 600 pilgrims who will represent the Archdiocese of Boston in Canada. ''Young people are very resilient. I think that the young people gathered in the cathedral today are very centered in the Lord.'' The sexual abuse scandal ''is being dealt with diocese by diocese,'' Law said. ''I don't believe that that is going to be a principal focus at World Youth Day.'' Law said the projected attendance for the Toronto event is lower than the 2 million people who attended the last World Youth Day, in Rome in 2000. Attendance is expected to be lower because of travel fears and restrictions stemming from the Sept. 11 attacks, not the clergy sex-abuse scandal, he said. Law did not mention the scandal when he addressed the youth during the Mass. He also refused to take questions on another significant gathering of Catholics: the national convention of Voice of the Faithful, the Boston-based lay reform group established in a church basement just five months ago. The group now has 19,000 supporters across the country, and an estimated 4,000 members attended its first convention Saturday at Hynes Veterans Memorial Convention Center in Boston. James Post, president of Voice of the Faithful, said at a separate news conference yesterday that the abuse issue must not be ignored in Toronto. ''I hope and pray that the Catholic leadership will acknowledge to young people the responsibility to address the issue of abuse, one of the greatest social issues of our time,'' Post said. Yet even as Law played down the impact of the abuse scandal on the Toronto gathering, some of the young pilgrims who attended Mass said they realize they will be meeting with the pope at a critical time in the church's history. ''It's different. It's kind of confirming our faith,'' said Andrew Griffith, 18, from Wakefield. ''Some people, because of what's happened, have lost some of their faith. It's important to show that we still believe.'' Griffith credited the diocese's youth workers with striking the right balance in dealing with the scandal. ''It's been somewhere in the middle. They're not trying to keep us away from it, to pretend it didn't happen, but they're not dwelling on it either,'' he said. ''Maybe they could be a little more up front. But I am glad [that] they are acknowledging it and that it is a problem.'' Even if they had wanted to, it would have been impossible for the young pilgrims who attended Mass yesterday to ignore the abuse scandal. As they entered the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, they passed about 50 sign-waving protesters and listened to protester Steven Lewis on a megaphone. ''Cardinal Law of Boston, Massachusetts, is a charlatan, a liar, and a hypocrite,'' Lewis shouted as a passing knot of teens cringed at the blast of sound. ''I hope you elders in there are explaining to children as they go in there that their peers have been molested and repeatedly raped under the stewardship of that man in there.'' A decade ago, Lewis settled a molestation suit against the Rev. Edward T. Kelley and the archdiocese for $10,000 for abuse he allegedly suffered at St. Mary's Parish in Lynn in the late 1960s. He is part of a cadre of abuse victims and other protesters calling for a diocesewide boycott of Mass on Sept. 22.

International studies of accounting have recognised the importance of 'culture' in accounting systems. Various definitions of and proxies for culture have been used in the accounting literature. These have contributed little to our understanding, save that culture is a complex issue and is clearly important for the development and practice of accounting.
This paper brings together two strands of literature (culture and regulatory compliance) to point out practical weaknesses in the transition to global reporting in the form of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The discussion centres on the European Union (EU), a culturally diverse region that is requiring the use of IFRS in the consolidated financial statements of listed companies from 2005. The article goes on to contribute to the emerging literature on enforcement by proposing a model for policing IFRS.

Probabilities and polarity biases in conditional inference
UNSPECIFIED. (2000) Probabilities and polarity biases in conditional inference. JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY-LEARNING MEMORY AND COGNITION, 26 (4). pp. 883-899. ISSN 0278-7393
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
A probabilistic computational level model of conditional inference is proposed that can explain polarity biases in conditional inference (e.g., J. St.B. T. Evans, 1993). These biases are observed when J. St.B. T. Evans's (1972) negations paradigm is used in the conditional inference task. The model assumes that negations define higher probability categories than their affirmative counterparts (M. Oaksford & K. Stenning, 1992); for example, P(not-dog) > P(dog). This identification suggests that polarity biases are really a rational effect of high-probability categories. Three experiments revealed that, consistent with this probabilistic account when high-probability categories are used instead of negations, a high-probability conclusion effect is observed. The relationships between the probabilistic model and other phenomena and other theories in conditional reasoning are discussed.

"The cumulative impacts of grassland loss in the Prairie Pothole Region, both CRP and native prairie, at this magnitude, will eventually have significant impacts on waterfowl populations and the number of ducks that hunters see in their decoy spreads," said Scott McLeod, DU Great Plains Government Affairs Representative. "In 2012 alone, North Dakota will lose more than 846,000 acres of CRP."
Nationwide, some 2.7 million acres of CRP, freed from contracts, are already being converted to farmland. Enough acres exited the program this year to fall below the nationwide enrollment cap, which was reduced from 39.2 million acres to 32 million acres in the 2008 Farm Bill.
To get below 32 million acres by October 1, 2010, as mandated in the 2008 Farm Bill, USDA offered three or five year contract extensions and 70 percent of the producers accepted. "However, the result was still a significant loss of CRP nationwide and in the Dakotas and Montana," said McLeod.
The USDA is currently in the process of conducting a CRP Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement, which is expected to be completed sometime during the fall of 2010. A general CRP sign-up cannot be held until the impact statement is completed.

..cleopatra's choice review..
I was recently contacted by a company called Cleopatra's Choice and asked to review one of their many great products. Cleopatra's Choice sells skin care and beauty products, brought to you from all over the world. They began by bringing Dead Sea products to the US, and now you can shop for skin care and beauty products from Japan, Morocco, Italy, Australia and more.
They have so many unique items, some of which include:
Dead Sea Mud Shampoo
Pure Argan Oil
And the product that I reviewed, the Adovia Mineral Lift Serum.
"This deep absorbing, light gel is formulated with natural ingredients to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing your skin's elasticity and firmness. Based on a unique formula of Vitamin C, Evening Primrose Oil and Dead Sea minerals, it instantly moisturizes to improve your skin's texture - giving you a radiant, smooth and even complexion. Amino acids combined with Green Tea extract and Vitamin C help your skin naturally regenerate - creating a firmer, more youthful appearance. Additionally it protects skin from daily pollutants and weather damage that can clog pores and cause wrinkles and breakouts."
This serum feels so light when you apply it to your face. It is not greasy at all, and it absorbs instantly. I have been using the product for a little over a month now, and while it is not a "face lift in a bottle," I do feel like I can see a difference in the firmness of my skin.
This is a photo of using it for just a week:
And here is a photo after 3 weeks:
Where I can really tell a difference is in the area around my eyes. The fine lines at the corners of my eyes (which I REFUSE to call Crow's Feet because I think they should be more fabulous, like Flamingo's Feet!) have diminished slightly. The area seems smoother.

Cuissential brews up a collapsible silicone tea kettle
Everywhere you look, items made with or from silicone rubber continue to pop up like mushrooms after a long spring rain. From artificial lungs to cookie sheets, even baby bottles, this versatile, non-toxic material is becoming increasingly indispensable in our everyday lives. Now tea kettles can be added to the list of items getting the silicone treatment with the four-cup SlickBoil from Cuissential that takes advantage of silicone's flexibility to shrink to a space-saving package when not preparing a refreshing brew.

Wouldn't it be cool if, along with your flying car and your robot butler, you had a tap in your kitchen that dispensed hot beverages? You'd just shuffle into the kitchen in the morning, and grab a cappuccino in the same way that you'd usually get a glass of water from the tap in the sink - that said, it probably wouldn't be a good idea to put your mouth right up to the coffee tap. Anyhow, such a thing does indeed now exist, and it's called the Top Brewer. Read More
People learning a new language almost always have the same complaint – you may temporarily memorize words that you learn in a classroom, but you soon forget those words unless you actually have to use the language. Some educators have addressed this problem through Task-Based Language Learning, in which students have to complete a task using instructions provided in a foreign language. Researchers at Britain's Newcastle University have recently put a high-tech spin on this approach – they've created an interactive kitchen that keeps track of what its users are doing, as it uses the French language to guide them in preparing French cuisine.

If you like to cook, and are just beginning the process of acquiring basic kitchen supplies, you're probably planning on getting a measuring cup and a kitchen scale. Should you need to maximize space, however, you can now get both devices in one unit. It's the Maxim 2 in 1 Jug and Scales, and it lets you measure both volume and weight. Read More
While some people like to show off how they can survive on just wieners and beans when they're camping, others go to the opposite extreme, and set up miniature kitchens that they use to cook full meals from scratch. People in that second group, however, generally have to cart around several cases of gear, that they have to assemble and tear down for every meal. What they need is a self-contained portable camping kitchen, where all their gear can be both stored and used ... and that just happens to be what Kanz Outdoors' Field Kitchen is. Read More
Breville combines two breakfast favorites in one device
Breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day, and for me a few rounds of toast and a spot of rousing music on the radio is the perfect way to start off the day. UK kitchen appliance manufacturer Breville has taken those two kitchen favorites and merged them into one device – the Radio Toaster. Its smooth lines, matt black/silver finish and silver circular speaker give it a 1950s retro feel, but the AM/FM radio's display is digital rather than analog, and it also includes some modern toasting innovations to help users get the best bread-browning results.

The R2B2 pedal-powered kitchen appliance concept
Christoph Thetard has developed a mechanical flywheel drive to power a set of kitchen appliances for his Diploma in Product Design at Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany. The kitchen machine, coffee grinder and hand blender chosen for this device would under normal circumstances need to be plugged into an electrical wall socket, but there's no electricity needed for R2B2. Pumping the pedal spins the flywheel, which in turn provides the energy needed to operate the three cooking aids. Read More
Sharp shows new 3-in-1 oven - steam, grill, microwave
Sharp has announced the new Steamwave AX-1100, a 3-in-1 steam oven with a combination of steamer, grill and microwave. The Steamwave follows the success of Sharp's Superheated Steam Oven and is one of the first multiple ovens to introduce steam and grill to a microwave unit. Given that many households these days are centered around becoming more health conscious, the idea of having easy access to a steamer and grill will most likely prove popular. Read More
We've seen several innovations in the design of the humble electric kettle recently that save time and energy – here's another one. The "Eco Switch" kettle has two settings – one for normal boiling water and a second which heats water to 85-degrees Celsius (185F) for things like soup. This means you get your warm water quicker, save energy, and you don't have to wait for it to cool down before you can drink it. Read More
Finalists showcased in Electrolux Design Lab 2010 competition
The jury has wielded the axe on the 25 semi-finalists in the Electrolux Design Lab competition, leaving just eight finalists from the original 1,300 entries to battle it out for the prize of a six-month paid internship at an Electrolux global design center and 5,000 Euros (approx. US$6,350). The 2010 brief asked industrial design students to consider how people will prepare and store food, wash clothes, and do dishes in the homes of 2050, when 74 percent of the global population are predicted to live in an urban environment. Let's take a look at the lucky eight entries vying for the title. Read More

The Dark Knight Rises actor Tom Hardy, who is set to play the villain Bane in the upcoming Christopher Nolan Batman movie, has revealed how he believes that they have taken a big risk with the potential mumbling of Bane's voice. However, Tom did admit that he believes the audience will soon be able to tune into the voice.
Hardy explained to Entertainment Weekly, "It's a risk, because we could be laughed at - or it could be very fresh and exciting. The audience mustn't be too concerned about the mumbly voice. As the film progresses, I think you'll be able to tune to its setting."
Concerns arose about the sound of Bane's voice when the six minute prologue was released earlier this year. It showed scenes of Tom Hardy as Bane but due to the mask and the accent, it was rather difficult to understand what was being said.
The Dark Knight Rises is the third and final movie in Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy and it will also be the last time that we see Christian Bale as the Caped Crusader. As well as Tom Hardy as Bane, Batman will also be up against Catwoman, who is played by Anne Hathaway.
The Dark Knight Rises is released on July 20.

The reel cash-in
In the neglected hinterlands of Vidarbha, television serials do not rule prime time TV. Giving stiff competition to the zadipatti theatre, nascent zadipatti cinema is now the go-to entertainment source for the rural population.
Popularised by the touring talkies, which get off the ground during the numerous jatras that happen in the region, short films produced on shoe-string budgets have nudged their way into this segment and are quite popular in areas of Loni, Morshi, Washim, Gondia, Bhandara, Chimur and Deolgaon Raja and the bushes of Chandrapur. The filmmakers are wannabe producer-directors and even actors, who are restrained by lack of exposure and money, and thus satisfy themselves by making short films that cater to rural audiences.
Modern technology and state-of-the-art cameras have made it possible to shoot good quality DVD films. These are then shown at mass gatherings usually organised in schools or other community centres or even in the open by setting up a pandal, for a nominal ticket charge.
Most filmmakers fight shy of admitting that their films are low budget tacky productions meant for this circuit. Another reason why these filmmakers are so unwilling to discuss this is that they fear too much publicity would bring in bigger players for a share of the pie.
Pradip Deshpande, an actor and producer, has made a one and a half-hour Hindi film Garv Se Kaho Hum Hindu Hain in which he plays the lead role of an NRI who comes to India and discovers its rich culture. Though he is proud to hold a screening of it, he is reluctant to discuss the purpose behind making it.
After much needling he says, "I will be showing this film in the rural areas at the jatras. The cost of production is Rs 2. 5 lakh and I can easily recover this money by charging Rs 15 to 20 per person at a show. Eight to ten shows at different places can help me recover the cost and also profit. " Ask him why is he so reluctant to discuss it and he admits, "Too much publicity to this segment will bring in a rush of filmmakers and that would affect our profits. "
Even the themes of these films cater to rural taste. If Deshpande's film is about Indian cultural values, then Madhuri Ashirgade, who sings, acts and even produces and directs films, has made Tandla, which is about a woman being treated as a goddess. Ashirgade insists that it is a big-budget film. But she also admits that theatre releases could have made her lose money so she did hold shows at Chandrapur and Lonavala. "The jatra circuit is a lucrative one and can help us to earn back our money, as in the theatres we pay upfront but are never sure if we will get the required audience to recover our cost. "
Film director Narendra Shinde is more forthcoming. "This jatra circuit is a good platform for small producers and directors to show their films and make money. Two films directed by me, Mahad Satyagrah and Mann Udhan Udhan, were very well appreciated during the jatras. As the films are shown in open grounds, more than a thousand people view it at a time. There are no chairs and people get their own sheets to sit on. For my films, the ticket was Rs 10 and there were nearly 15 to 20 shows. "
Agitated with the reluctance of these filmmakers to talk about their films, Vilas Bobde, the president of the Vidarbha Cine Artists Association, says, "The best part about this segment is that these small film producers are not at the mercy of anyone like the theatre owner or the distributor. Nothing comes between their film and the end viewer. Besides if a film clicks it can be a money spinner as there is no limit to the number of shows that can be held. "

Wind for the world
Under ideal conditions, wind power could provide 34 percent of the world's electricity by 2050, according to a study by the Global Wind Energy Council and Greenpeace.
That achievement, the report claims, would "prevent 113 billion tons of global warming gases from entering the atmosphere" over the next 44 years.
"To achieve these goals," Kate Smolski, Greenpeace global warming campaigner, stated in a press release, "we will need both on and offshore wind and this is why Greenpeace has been such a strong advocate for the wind project proposed on Cape Cod."
The report is available at www.greenpeace.org/international/press/reports/globalwindenergyoutlook.
The press release notes that 11,531 megawatts of new wind energy capacity was installed worldwide in 2005, an increase of 40.5 percent over 2004. The leaders in overall production were Germany (18,428 MW), Spain (10,027 MW), the U.S. (9,149 MW), India (4,430 MW) and Denmark (3,122 MW).
Kites are wind-powered
Clean Power Now's "Wind Jam 2006" event at the Sons of Italy Hall Saturday from 2:30 to 10 p.m. will include kite flying and special parking for hybrid, electric and biodiesel vehicles.
The daylong session, which includes music, an awards ceremony, and a silent auction, costs $25 at the door. The buffet from 6 to 8 p.m. is $10.

Deaths Scenes 1943-1945 |
Film Title/Year and Description | |
In this dramatic western, the three accused and suspected men were led to the base of a gnarled tree for a hanging, where three nooses had been hanging prominently and ominously throughout the previous sequence. A reluctant Gerald Tetley (William Eythe) was ordered to participate by his father Major Tetley (Frank Conroy): As the hands of the suspects were tied behind their backs, one of them, doomed Martin (Dana Andrews) pleaded with Major Tetley for reconsideration: Cowpoke drifter Gil Carter (Henry Fonda) attempted to defend them, but was restrained and silenced by the vigilante mob. The victims, with ropes around their necks, were placed on horses that were whipped out from underneath them. Gerald received a vicious gun butt in the face from his father for refusing to whip one of the horses. The shadows of the three men's bodies were seen swinging on the ground. To "finish 'em," Jeff Farnley (Marc Lawrence) fired bullets from his rifle into all three men to ensure that they were dead. The posse left as Sparks (Leigh Whipper) sang about each of the three souls journeying through the Lonesome Valley and standing alone before their Maker. |
In a thrilling scene set on a moving train in the platform between train cars, there was a struggle between Uncle Charlie Oakley (Joseph Cotten) - the "Merry Widow Murderer " - and his young niece Charlie (Teresa Wright). As the train began to move faster, he seized her as she panicked and tried to break away. His face was absolutely monstrous as he advanced on her. She struggled into the space between the cars, while he gripped her mouth and throat and opened the door to fling her onto the tracks. He explained his homicidal intentions: "I've got to do this, Charlie, so long as you know what you do about me." He twisted her around in his tight embrace, as she grappled with him. He lifted her off the ground - her legs dangled in the air. Her black-gloved hand gripped the door handle and then lost its hold. Both watched the passing blur of landscape and tracks (two parallel railway tracks became one), delaying the inevitable plunge into death. Uncle Charles prepared her by waiting for the right moment of lethal speed and exhilaration (and sexual receptiveness), educating her to the monstrous world that he earlier said she must learn - as his twin: "Not yet, Charlie, let it get a little faster! Just a little faster! Faster! Now!" She reversed positions on him, upset his balance and pushed him away - he fell headlong into the path of an oncoming, speeding train on an adjacent track. Her act freed him from his (and her) nightmares and from his curse to kill - she fulfilled her earlier threat ("I'll kill you myself"), aiding her uncle to embrace death. The image dissolved to the one of dancing couples twirling to the Merry Widow Waltz. |
The Song of Bernadette (1943) In the film's conclusion was the moving death of Bernadette Soubirous (Jennifer Jones), in which she experienced a final visitation from the Virgin Mary (Linda Darnell) who held out her arms, smiled, and said: "I love you!" |
In the drama's climactic scene, 'Laura Hunt' murderer Waldo Lydecker (Clifton Webb), in a passionate rage, was about to mortally wound the real Laura (Gene Tierney) with a shotgun. When Laura was left alone, Waldo snuck back into her apartment, past the ticking grandfather clock. He was about to murder Laura (for the second time!) because she had fallen in love with Detective McPherson (Dana Andrews) and was not returning his love. Lydecker removed the shotgun from the clock's base, reloaded the murder weapon, and became startled when he heard his own mellifluous voice on a pre-recorded radio broadcast that Laura played within her bedroom. Lydecker's sick fantasy was echoed in his own poetic broadcast about how Love lasted beyond death: In her bedroom as Laura prepared to retire, Lydecker broke her out of her reverie and shocked her with his appearance. He vowed to kill her, rather than lose her to McPherson: He raised his shotgun: "There he is now. He'll find us together, Laura as we always have been and we always should be, as we always will be." His words strongly implied that he intended a murder/suicide. Laura deflected the aim of the shotgun as it went off. McPherson broke down the door just in time to save her and have her run and fall into his arms. Waldo was mortally wounded in an exchange of gunfire with the police. A shotgun blast went wild and shattered the face of the grandfather clock. As Waldo was dying and uttered her name in his final words, she rushed to his side. The camera rested on the clock as Lydecker's final words were delivered off-screen with a theatrical flourish: |
Murder, My Sweet (1944) In this film noir's twist ending and violent conclusion set in a beach house, Mrs. Helen Grayle/Velma (Claire Trevor) died when shot by her millionaire husband Mr. Grayle (Miles Mander). Love-struck ex-con Moose Malloy (Mike Mazurki) reacted to her lifeless body on the sofa: Mr. Grayle and Moose then exchanged lethal shots as well. Detective Philip Marlowe (Dick Powell) was temporarily blinded by the first gunblast. |
Detour (1945) Despicable hitchhiker Vera (Ann Savage) was accidentally strangled by doomed protagonist Al Roberts (Tom Neal) with a telephone cord, behind a closed door in their rented Hollywood apartment. It occurred during a vicious argument when the drunken femme fatale threatened to call the Hollywood police station. After she called him a "yellow stinker" and accused him of not being a "gentleman," she ordered him to open up the windows. It was a ploy - she grabbed the phone and raced into the adjoining room where she locked herself in. He pulled on the long phone cord extension, which she had inexplicably wrapped around her neck. When she ignored his promise to do anything she asked for, he began yanking on the cord and pulled it as tightly as possibly (with a close-up of his straining fists). Then, he broke down the door and saw her body lying on the bed - reflected in a mirror. Now self-pitying Roberts had another murder to be accounted for, and he knew his fate was sealed as a guilty man: |
Leave Her to Heaven (1945) An uncaring, sunglasses-wearing femme fatale Ellen Berent (Gene Tierney) watched from a rowboat as her young, paraplegic brother-in-law Danny (Darryl Hickman) drowned in a Maine lake. The scene began with her cheerfully assisting Danny in applying suntan lotion before he slipped into the water from the boat. He asked: "Can I swim all the way across today?" When she asked: "Do you think you can make it?", he assured: "Why sure? I made it three-quarters yesterday and I wasn't a bit tired." She followed in the rowboat, and promised he didn't have to worry about his direction: "I'll keep you on your course." She steered him into the middle of the lake and noted: "You're not making very much progress, Danny. Are you alright?" When he became winded and had a kink in his side, he admitted he was getting tired. She told him to "take it easy," but then pushed him further: "You don't want to give up when you've come so far." When he became exhausted and distressed in the water from severe stomach cramps (after eating a large lunch), Ellen passively watched as he called out: "Help me!" He submerged twice and then disappeared under the surface. She pretended to assist him by diving in, but it was obviously too late. In the film's conclusion, Ellen committed suicide with poison to 'frame' her foster sister Ruth Berent (Jeanne Crain). |
