Taylor Swift knew it couldn't be trouble. On the contrary, when she saw the YouTube clip of 50 young Israeli music students performing her pop mega-hit "I Knew You Were Trouble" in a hard rock orchestra format complete with a guitar army, she posted on the homepage of her website and tweeted that the clip "makes me so happy."Almost 600,000 viewers of the clip, performed by students from the Artik School of Music in Yehud, have had the same reaction since it was uploaded in late November. And now with their of the hit song from country/pop superstar's album Red about to be released on iTunes, the school is hoping to reap the benefits of its international exposure."We expected a strong response, but we didn't think it would be that big and huge," said Roi Draizin, who founded Artik in 2004 with his brother Amit as an alternative "School of Rock" music center. "The clip made a big balagan [stir] around the world. It was unprecedented for someone as big as Taylor Swift to personally refer to it on her site and her Facebook page. And then Ryan Seacrest [of American Idol] tweeted about it and it took off from there."It's no surprise that even those seasoned entertainment professionals were taken with the clip – it's hard not to love, from the powerful live performance captured by nine cameras to the effervescent and attractive Israeli teens hitting guitar power chords, to the female chorus singing Swift's lyrics with a tinge of an Israeli accent, to the particularly camera-friendly young drummer with his hair flailing away to the beat. It could be the greatest three minutes of hasbara (public diplomacy) since Claire Danes touted Tel Aviv as the most happening city in the world.Draizin and his brother conceived of the clip's concept in order to raise awareness of Artik and hopefully attract new students."With the new generation, if you don't speak their language, you'll lose them. And their language is totally YouTube and Facebook," said Draizin. "It's much closer to their hearts than anything else – kids would prefer to watch YouTube than go to see a live show, unless it was someone they really liked."He described the concept of taking a pop tune and creating orchestral rock out of it as attempt to create unexpected – or in Hebrew terms – hafuch al hafuch."At Artik, we don't work with large ensembles, it's usually small groups, that's one element. And taking a song that's the epitome of pop and turning into a big rock song with a guitar army, and having it played by a young rock orchestra, a framework that usually geared to classical music and older musicians, is the main opposite element."Recruiting 50 of the school's students proved to be no problem, and the logistics of teaching the parts and filming the performance live also went off efficiently due to the motivation of the players, said Draizin."Within two weeks, we did everything, from teaching the parts to filming it. It should have taken months, but the kids were organized and totally committed.Everything was done live, there was no overdubbing or correcting parts. That's the beauty of it."Draizin touted Artik as a school for music students who have been spurned or disillusioned by established conservatories and private teachers."We've created a method and an environment that captures the student's imagination and entices him to want to make a strong commitment," he said, adding that the range of students currently at the school span from four years old to 67."We particularly like to take on students who have no musical background, or have been rejected by conservatories because they're not 'musical.' It often happens with kids who have learning or concentration problems that a school will see it as an obstacle and use an excuse that the student isn't musical. We see students like that as a challenge and actually as having the capacity to succeed more than someone without concentration problems."For example, look at drumming – you need to have two arms and two legs in constant motion – sometimes for a kid with extra energy, it's much easier for him to focus on doing that."Artik's approach seems to be working, based on the the quality of the students' work on the Taylor Swift song. Since its release, Draizin has received several queries from around the world about setting up branches of Artik.Meanwhile, Draizin and his brother are already planning their next YouTube breakout. The song is being kept secret, but given its track record, the cat will be out of the bag soon enough.

This fusion of life force and mind focus forms the basis of the studio's classes and consultations.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Aug. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Cadillac engineers and designers have found themselves another potential hit in the 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe in San Antonio, TX, which has recently arrived to the Cavender Cadillac showroom. The coupe version of the new 2015 ATS is a natural progression in the development of one of the most popular Cadillac vehicles that have become available in recent years. The Cadillac engineers responsible for the new car have made sure that the new 2015 ATS Coupe has the performance as well as the luxury to be able to compete on a global scale with its traditional rivals from Mercedes-Benz and BMW.
Photo - http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140822/138908
In order for the 2015 ATS Coupe to be successful against competing models from German imports, great care had to be taken with the design of the new ATS. For instance, during the initial phases of fleshing out the building materials for the 2015 ATS, each gram of weight had to be justified for inclusion on the car. Cadillac wanted to, and succeed in, building a vehicle that achieves a near perfect 50/50 balance and makes the most efficient use of the ample horsepower provided by each of the two available powerplants. However, that doesn't mean that the 2015 ATS Coupe suffers from a spartan design aesthetic. It still features all of the amenities and interior appointments that would be expected in a classic, yet modern, Cadillac coupe.
On the subject of available engines, the base version of the 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe comes powered by a turbocharged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that can make more than 270 horsepower at peak output while still being able to achieve Environmental Protection Agency fuel-economy estimates topping 30 miles per gallon. Potential customers looking to get behind the wheel of the 2015 ATS Coupe will also have the option to have a powerful, naturally aspirated 3.6-liter, V-6 engine that will have 321-horsepower and still approach 30 miles per gallon in EPA fuel-economy estimates.
The entire Cavender Cadillac inventory can be viewed at www.cavendercadillac.com. The dealership's showroom is located at 801 Broadway, San Antonio, TX, 78215. Anyone would would like to take a closer look at the 2015 Cadillac ATS can call 210-226-7221 to schedule a test drive today.

V8 Supercar driver Fabian Coulthard scored another podium, but it was a day that could have been for Kiwi drivers in Townsville.
Coulthard was third in the second of today's races at the Townsville 500, managing to recover from a damaged car and 15th in the first race.
Finishing behind winner Garth Tander and team-mate James Courtney, Coulthard paid tribute to his crew for making the podium possible.
"The preparation for that race probably wasn't as good as it could have been, the boys did a fantastic job getting the car back out there after the damage we had," Coulthard said.
"We'll take a podium any day after something like that. Credit to those guys, they did a great job and we'll be back fighting tomorrow."
Following Coulthard home was fellow New Zealander Shane van Gisbergen, just missing out on a podium in fourth, while the other Kiwi in the field, Scott McLaughlin, was 14th.
Earlier in race one of the day, van Gisbergen was the best placed Kiwi finishing fifth after McLaughlin failed to capitalise on a blistering start which saw him take the early lead.
McLaughlin managed to catapult himself from starting fourth on the grid into the race lead midway through the first lap, only to eventually finish behind van Gisbergen in sixth.
It meant it was a bad day for McLaughlin as he falls further behind the leaders.
The results saw defending champion Jamie Whincup eat into the points lead of Mark Winterbottom.
Whincup, who started 10th in the opening race, took the chequered flag by two seconds from Tander with Will Davidson five seconds back.
Winterbottom had to settle for a disappointing 11th.
In race two, Whincup again finished ahead of his rival, but this time only just, seventh ahead of Winterbottom in eighth.
Winterbottom now leads the season-long points race by 144 from Whincup with Craig Lowndes 191 points behind.
Kiwi Coulthard is fourth in the standings, 234 points behind, van Gisbergen sixth (306 points behind) and McLaughlin seventh (405 points behind).
Racing continues tomorrow.

Gentle Soap
Posted by Reviewer3340090 on Apr 01, 2011
It doesn't have a strong smell. Did not burn my skin like Proactive did. I think it's helping my acne. I leave it on my face for a few minutes. Rinses off well. Need a light moisturizer after use. Great soap.

Please do join us in London.
no matter where you are, even if there isn't an event near you, there is something you can do to mark the event
Sheffield is having it's first ever event for TDOR.
"Trans people have always existed in every civilisation throughout human history."
Nothing more true. From Elagabalus to Lili Elbe, from the two-spirits in Native North America to the kathoeys in Thailand and the hijras in the Indian subcontinent we have always existed, like homosexual and bisexual people but our existence has always been underdocumented. I'll definitely remember it. I wish I had already come out as transgender to my parents, but unfortunately I know it will take longer before I have courage to do that.
On Saturday the 17th there will be a ceremony to remember the fallen in CROYDON CR7 at the St Stephens Church Hall on Warwick Road where Kellie Telesford whos sad demise was exactly five years this weekend will be remembered along with others. see http://www.titipu.demon.co.uk/tdor/Croydon2012.htm
Here is Southampton's event. https://www.facebook.com/events/161331314011326/
Is there a place to find out where our local events would be?
http://www.transgenderdor.org/ has a good list!

If nothing else, Julian Assange was an Internet pioneer for exposing things that otherwise would not have seen the light of day on such a large scale. There have been whistle-blowers and various documents made available to the press and courts in years past, but nothing on the scale and public availability of what WikiLeaks provided. Like opening a can of worms, the potential for copycat sites and rogue insiders trying to make money from stealing internal documents is now unfortunately a lurking reality. A leak of memos and internal reports on such a widespread public forum could be a crippling risk to any corporation if they were the next big leak.
Many of these leaks, like the one announced yesterday involving US Navy intelligence specialist Brian Minkyu Martin, are inside jobs and potentially the hardest to stop. For these, a combination of a "bullet-proof" security policy and a lockdown of anything that looks like a storage device plugged into a USB port could potentially stop many of the amateurs.
However, far more sophisticated cyber criminals are sniffing out electronic transfers without detection for the thousands of files transferred among businesses every day. Surprisingly, many companies are not taking the simple steps to verify that their data and other confidential communications is encrypted – until it is too late.
The question begs, how do we keep ourselves from being the next headline on a site like WikiLeaks? The answers are simple. Centralize your data management, limit access to only the individuals with a constant expressed "need-to-know," and only transfer information securely whether external or even internally within your company.
One of the better secure file server tools on the market right now is GoAnywhere Services by Linoma Software. I've been able to test it on Windows, Linux, Unix (in a VMware environment), and even on an IBM iSeries. Not only was it fast and browser-based, but it provided many levels of role-based and credential-based access for users. The application also provided IP filtering and various triggers that alerted me to file movement and internal or external user activity. The secure file server can also be paired with a reverse proxy DMZ gateway and a managed file transfer application. I tried the managed file transfer application called GoAnywhere Director and was surprised how easy it was to automate, audit and centralize all the data transformation and transfer tasks I needed to do that day.
The notion I've been promoting in offices for years is that every file matters. Because of that belief, you need to develop a culture of data security where it is easy and almost fun to exchange information securely (Comrade, have you the microfilm?). Do not put yourself at risk for supplying a WikiLeaks site with their next headline. Remember that there is no compensation for unknowingly providing unsecure information to the masses. Thread an easy-to-use and effective secure file transfer system into the fabric of your data security plan today.

For a night you can feel like you're at a megatechno club in Berlin, for much cheaper. The Bunker takes over both floors of Tonic, welcoming Monolake, who produces austere, minimal German techno and has a new CD, Polygon Cities. He plays with Deadbeat, who chimes in remotely from Japan via Internet, as part of the "Atlantic Waves" series. The future must be here. Monolake and Deadbeat share the bill with San Francisco's Safety Scissors, who makes so-called IDM and whose music is usually described using the adjective quirky. (Well, it is.) Old-school New Yorker DJ Olive of the Agriculture (and formerly of We) spins with Todd Sines (Planet E/Peacefrog), Archetype, Smartypants & Local Fields, David Last, and more. A smorgasbord of experimental electronic music to fit your every need! Fri @ 10, Tonic, 107 Norfolk, 212-358-7501
DJ Kimyon fires up his monthly party Pockit Rockit with this week's super- special guest, Juan Atkins (a/k/a Model 500). Electronic music history lesson alert: Atkins, as you probably know, is credited, along with Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson, with creating the modern "techno" soundfusing the influences of Kraftwerk and Parliament- Funkadelic to create classics like "Clear" that sound as if they were created yesterday. Thu @ 10, APT, 419 W 13th, 212-414-4245
Rich Medina, the Philly funk, soul, and deep-house brother, comes in from the so-called "sixth borough" (cough, cough) to celebrate the four-year anniversary of his popular Jump N Funk Party. Thanks to his mix of Afrobeat, old soul, funk, r&b, and house records, the beloved DJ has built such a dedicated following in both cities that he has residencies in both. (He must not mind the commute.) Thu @ 10, S.O.B.'s, 204 Varick, 212-243-4940

Tomorrow, When the War BeganAnne Murphy
When their country is invaded and their families are taken, eight unlikely high school teenagers band together to fight.
If a hostile invasion were to occur it might play out just as it does in "Tomorrow, When the War Began". Action laden exploits are built on a gripping premise that stays just within the bounds of credibility. The interaction between the affable teenage characters is laden with coming of age insecurity as they try to work out what's happening and what to do. Tension is palpable as bewilderment develops into determination to survive. The gang rallies and the adventure begins...
Matching JackWendy Slevison
A woman struggles with her son's illness and her husband's infidelity.
Watching "Matching Jack" is a bit like spending two hours in the Oncology Ward of a Children's Hospital, and whilst compassionately acknowledging that for many families, this is their dreadful reality, it's pretty tough on the ordinary movie-goer. The film is about sick children, and in spite of a romance and a 'happy' ending, this fact leaves a slight feeling of discomfort - it's too emotionally overworked to be a documentary, but too tragically true to life to be entertaining. Tears will flow, but it just feels a bit too orchestrated... disappointing diagnosis for one of Australia's well-known film-making teams.
BoyThomas Jones
Set on a rural farm in New Zealand in 1984, Boy, is the story of an 11 year old with a vivid imagination coming face to face with life's realities.
This coming of age tale is sweet at heart and the unpretentious portrayal of Boy's story is endearing. The comedic moments and the uniquely Maori dialogue make this film. However, the one-incident-after-another plot wears a bit thin at times and leaves a few too many loose threads. Is Boy the man? Nah bro'!
Father of My ChildrenWendy Slevison
A film producer struggles with suicidal despair amidst the collapse of his business.
"Father of My Children" explores the emotive subject of suicide, acutely juxtaposing the life of a busy young Parisian family before and after 'the event'. In this sensitive and authentic observation, anger, tears, secrets and stoic determination are all revealed as the people left behind struggle to continue on with life amidst their grief and the financial mess that is their legacy. Based on a true story (only minor details have been changed), this film is a poignant acknowledgement of the very significant issue of mental health in our world. Don't just see this film, talk about it.
The Killer Inside MeAnne Murphy
A West Texas deputy sheriff is slowly unmasked as a psychotic killer.
Small town post-war America is faithfully captured and depicted in a way that almost elicits nostalgia, even for those of us who weren't there. "The Killer Inside Me" is dark and moody as well as stylish, as is the film-noir tradition. Watching the sociopathic protagonist committing a string of murders while maintaining his deception is profoundly disturbing. Sadistic elements of the story-line are intended to shock; the violence is brutal and administered with pre-meditated determination but most chilling is the demeanour of the murderer. There is not a flicker of remorse inside this killer.
Cairo TimeAnne Murphy
A romantic drama about a brief, unexpected love affair that catches two people off-guard.
Cairo creates a magnificent backdrop for this movie, the mood is exotic and the scenery is breathtaking. The pace in the summer heat is languid, and the already heavy atmosphere is laden with meaningful glances. Without meaning to give anything away, the previous sentences provide a full plot description, as not very much happens. "Cairo Time" is well produced and almost serves better as a travel documentary than a romantic drama, as charming as the love story is. Slow, subtle and lingering, it might stay around for a time.
Everlasting MomentsAnne Murphy
In a time of social change and unrest, a young working class woman wins a camera in a lottery.
"Everlasting Moments" is a captivating drama set at the turn of 20th century and told from the perspective of a woman of modest means. Beautifully captured by the camera, and produced in sepia tones, the movie is burnished with a historic patina. The central relationship is acutely observed as years pass, a wife beleaguered by her domestic situation and her oafish husband. Themes of resilience and acceptance are sympathetically related rather than viewed through a romantic lens. Lasting impressions.
LourdesAnne Murphy
Wheelchair-bound Christine makes a life changing journey to Lourdes, the iconic site of pilgrimage.
"Lourdes" is a subversive, almost tongue in cheek, exploration of theology, belief and miracles. A contemplative movie that, thanks to an underdeveloped narrative, leaves the audience to imagine what each sideways glance and eyebrow movement on the screen means. This story will appeal to believers and non believers as it captures both the devotion of a pilgrimage to Lourdes and the modern day commercialism of the same. Miracles are now commodities. It's hard to say what St. Bernadette would make of the contemporary Lourdes.
HahahaAnne Murphy
Two men, who don't realise they have just holidayed in the same place, at the same time, and with the same people, talk about their respective holidays over drinks.
The premise of "Hahaha" is quite amusing and the film is described as a comedy. It's a low budget effort with no fancy props or effects. Redolent of a lazy summer holiday, the pace is almost lethargic. However, the pace and simple presentation are problematic when watching becomes tedious and eye-lids heavy. Despite the cleverness of the plot told from different perspectives, the film relates a boring tale albeit in a picturesque setting. Hmmmmm...
Women Without MenAnne Murphy
Against the tumultuous backdrop of Iran's 1953 CIA-backed coup d'état, the destinies of four women converge in a beautiful orchard garden, where they find independence, solace and companionship.
The cinematography is extraordinary, creating a compelling story on the screen. The camera wanders and picks up magical images, mostly of women who would wish to live their lives differently. Each woman's tale is told with insight and appreciation for the individual; a feminist narrative with a political backdrop. Interest is held as the movie weaves through time and dream sequences, even as the plot lacks a little depth. There are men with the women, they're all but incidental.
MammuthAnne Murphy
A retiree battles to obtain his rightfully due pension.
The grainy uneven quality of this film could be interpreted as artistic or just plain grainy and uneven. This movie was black to the point of miserable. Rather than being entertaining, "Mammuth" is bizarre. Populated with lifeless and simple characters, it's also dull. Even if you 'get' the redemptive elements of the awkward road-trip, you can't help but resent the waste of your time spent watching these lives less lived. Honestly there is no poetry in sliced ham, but you'll have to sit through a screening to 'get' that reference. Only if you must.
Step Up 3DWendy Slevison
A tight-knit group of New York City street dancers find themselves pitted against the world's best hip hop dancers in a high-stakes showdown that will change their lives forever.
Using the same mainstream storyline as many other chick-flicks such as friendship, love, competition and issues of trust, this is definitely a film intended for dance lovers. While showing a disappointing lack of imagination in the plot and rather forced and fake acting, the electrifying dance scenes and razor-sharp chorography do redeem the film. However, it could have stepped its game up a bit.
The Special RelationshipThomas Jones
A dramatisation that traces former U.K. prime minister Tony Blair's relationships with Bill Clinton.
Blair and Clinton's relationship was like every other relationship. There was the honeymoon stage, sleepovers, late night phone calls, an affair, disagreements and ultimately, a break-up. To enjoy this film a knowledge of history or politics isn't necessary, because anyone who has been in any type of relationship will be able to see truth in the depiction of this couple. Unfortunately, the truthful depictions don't extend to the portrayals of some of these well known figures. It leans more towards telemovie than documentary. But rest assured, there are plenty more poltical icons left in the sea.
GreenbergAnthony Macali
A New Yorker moves to Los Angeles in order to figure out his life while he house-sits for his brother, and he soon sparks with his brother's assistant.
"Greenberg" is a guy who is annoying and weird, so aloof that you may question his mental state. At the beginning, you empathise with the man, but this doesn't last long, as you become bored by his antics and frustrated by his social encumbrance. It's difficult to root for such a character, especially when his old friends, and particularly the vulnerable assistant, suffer from his selfishness. Yes, life must be tough without any responsibility... poor Greenberg.
Welcome to the RileysAnne Murphy
On a business trip to New Orleans, a damaged man seeks salvation by caring for a wayward young woman.
The premise of the prostitute and the man who wants to save her is given a twist and a spin in "Welcome to the Rileys". Lost people, each burdened by their own history, find themselves by embarking on various journeys. Strong performances push the implausible just over the border into credible. This movie is rewarding on an emotional level without tugging too hard on any strings as the tale is traversed. Put out the welcome mat for the Rileys.
South SolitaryThomas Jones
A veteran lighthouse serviceman and his niece deal with the mismanagement of an island's lighthouse.
"South Solitary" is another display of that overused premise; put an unlikely character in a foreign environment and watch as they struggle to adapt. The quick pace, dynamic characters and moments of black comedy in this film are entertaining, but it ultimately suffers from the monotony, which comes with the territory of lighthouse keeping. However, the audience gets that bit closer to answering the age old question. If you were stuck on an island, what would you take with you? Definitely not a relative with too much baggage (and not the kind packed in a suitcase).
Me and Orson WellesAnne Murphy
A teenager is cast in the production of "Julius Caesar" directed by a young Orson Welles in 1937.
"Me and Orson Welles" is a coming of age drama within a convincing theatrical setting. The era is authentically replicated, and the characters so well drawn the audience is transported to thinking we're watching Orson Welles in his prime. The raging genius, ruthless manipulator, and ambitious actor and director are all credibly presented. Theatre life and backstage dramas within the chaos of the production process are all used to enthral, and it's crowned by romantic intrigue. This is a well directed movie that ends with applause.
The Karate KidWendy Slevison
A single mother moves to China with her young son, and in his new home, the boy embraces kung-fu.
This movie leaves you a little puzzled. Why is it called "The Karate Kid" when it's about kung-fu? Why didn't the editor chop at least half an hour out of it? And... why should people go see this movie? The answer to that is that it's an enjoyable journey - an uplifting tale about a cross-cultural/generational relationship between a pair of improbable allies. Countering the inevitable clichés are skillfully choreographed fight scenes and some truly spectacular scenery. So, in spite of pondering the other questions, you'll almost certainly leave the cinema feeling that the 'kid' did pretty well.
Air DollAnne Murphy
A life-size blow-up doll develops a soul and falls in love with a video store clerk.
Seen through the delightfully innocent eyes of a living doll, scenes are coloured with an appreciation for the everyday. We observe the realities and absurdities of modern day life where everything is eventually discarded and disposed of. "Air Doll" is laden with social comment about our lonely urban lifestyles and it prompts reflection along existential themes. It could have been rather heavy going but for the whimsical touch of the director, and there is as much magic as sadness in the messages. This 'doll' is a sweetie.
World's Greatest DadAnne Murphy
A comedy about a man who learns that the things you want most may not be the things that make you happy, and that being lonely is not necessarily the same as being alone.
"World's Greatest Dad" is uncomfortable viewing centered on an unlikable teenage misfit and his apologetic, underachieving Dad. This movie is so dark it's pitch black, not to mention creepy - a parent's nightmare. Low key but high impact viewing that will stay with you. The messages about popularity and hollow celebrity will skulk at the back of your mind even if you are the world's greatest someone.
InceptionAnthony Macali
In a world where technology exists to enter the human mind through dream invasion, a highly skilled thief is given a final chance at redemption which involves executing his toughest job till date.
Boldly ambitious on a universal scale, "Inception" is awe inspiring, bringing to life the imagination of the mind in amazing visual detail. Mastering the idea of dreams within dreams may take some time, but it's this kind of challenge, rarely seen in blockbusters, that keeps you absolutely enthralled. It shoots through its running time at a whole new level, immersing you in the sub-conscious of the characters on screen without any contraptions. Unmistakably mind-blowing.
LeavingAnne Murphy
Suzanne is a well to do married woman and mother in the south of France.
"Leaving" is a sensual summertime love story set to the lazy sound of crickets, where passion is taken to the brink of histrionics in this ardent tale of an illicit romance. The realism of the story is first apparent in the soundtrack which consists mostly of the amplified background noises of the everyday. Whatever your moral stance, the strong performances allow audience members to be swept up, embraced in the fervour, held by the story, and then left panting. No leaving early.
CreationAndrew O'Dea
English naturalist Charles Darwin struggles with his revolutionary theories on evolution.
"Creation" provides an interesting perspective on one of the most influential scientists of all time. Rather than visiting the genius of Darwin's theory, this film is more of an intriguing portrait into the man himself. It dissects themes of faith and religion versus science while exploring Darwin's great inner turmoil and his terrible battle with spirituality. Although some might consider it not as highly evolved as it could've been (given the subject matter), a solid script and an absolutely outstanding performance from the lead actor make this movie an enjoyable watch nonetheless.
The RunawaysAnthony Macali
Based on lead-singer Cherie Currie's book 'Neon Angel' - a reflection of her experiences as a rock star in the '70's teenage band 'The Runaways'.
"The Runaways" is a musical biopic of teenage girls and their love for rock 'n' roll. This film exposes their relatively unknown story, charting their seedy formation and rise to fame in mesmerising style. The group is held together by terrifically eye-opening performances from the leads. Despite uneven levels of entertainment, this movie entices you to learn more about its popular music and lessons in addiction. A blur of a band easily forgotten.
The Waiting CityAnthony Macali
A mystic-infused love story that follows a young couple's journey to collect their adopted baby.
The title makes sense... there's a lot of waiting in the beautiful city of Kolkata, India, a cinematographer's dream with its vibrancy and detail. It's a slow journey, burdening the future parents more so than the audience, as a prolonged stay reveals the distressing troubles of their relationship. Mother-to-be Fiona works hard and delivers an endearing performance, but it's difficult to find meaning as themes of family and faith become muddled. "The Waiting City" is an admirable Australian film that will resonate with a small audience.

Product description
TV producer Fliss Benson receives an anonymous card at work. The card has sixteen numbers on it, arranged in four rows of four - numbers that mean nothing to her. On the same day, Fliss finds out she's going to be working on a documentary about miscarriages of justice involving cot-death mothers wrongly accused of murder. The documentary will focus on three women: Helen Yardley, Sarah Jaggard and Rachel Hines. All three women are now free, and the doctor who did her best to send them to prison for life, child protection zealot Dr Judith Duffy, is under investigation for misconduct. For reasons she has shared with nobody, this is the last project Fliss wants to be working on. And then Helen Yardley is found dead at her home, and in her pocket is a card with sixteen numbers on it, arranged in four rows of four ...

Review quote
'Enthrallingly complex ... A multi-stranded narrative that grips' The Sunday Times 'Intriguing, unnerving and engrossing ... the most adept of psychological thrillers, in which - as with Hannah's other novels - the psychosis lying just below the surface of the human personality is exposed ... A remarkable novel, and an adventure to read ... Undoubtedly a first-class whodunit that will keep you reading long into the night.' Scotsman 'Sophie Hannah has quickly established herself as a doyenne of the 'home horror' school of psychological tension, taking domestic situations and wringing from them dark, gothic thrills ... Combining probability theory, poetry and murder, this is a densely plotted suspenser with a coded puzzle that would grace a Golden Age mystery.' Financial Times 'A perplexing thriller with intrigue and infanticide ... It's a given that nothing will be as it seems in the latest psychological thriller from Sophie Hannah, who marries complex plots with crisp, conversational prose' Marie Claire 'As Hannah sees it things are rarely clear cut and it is this moral ambivalence that makes her fiction so provocative' Daily Express 'Hannah takes domestic scenarios, adds disquieting touches and turns up the suspense until you're checking under the bed for murders ... it's this real-life research that helps make it so convincing - and so unsettling' Independent 'Hannah is a master of intense psychological thrillers ... Full of twists and turns, and terrifying, too' **** Heat 'When it comes to ingenious plots that twist and turn like a fairground rollercoaster few writers can match Sophie Hannah. Hannah's complex and beautifully written tale kept me guessing right till the very last page.' Daily Express 'A convincing narrative of miscarried justice and individual trauma ... Hannah produces an enthrallingly complex plot whose serious themes are never undercut by her knack for comedy' The Times

February 25, 2013 - I love this simply designed amethyst bracelet! I've received several compliments about how pretty it is. It's easy to put on and take off my wrist. Plus in purchasing the bracelet, I am also helping a very worthy cause!
January 21, 2013 - Very nice. I like that the stones have a natural coloring. They are not simply one shade. the smaller connecting gems add sparkle but not took much. I like clasp too rather than the traditional type that is difficult to handle without help.
December 27, 2012 - Very beautiful. I purchased as a gift and she also loves it!
November 26, 2012 - Absolutely beautiful - I love this bracelet!
August 19, 2012 - loved this product when i got it for a friend as a gift, might just have to get one for myself!

'Raw people, genuine flavor and unbridled attitude': Capturing the sweltering and happy scenes from the only beach in the Bronx
The New York borough of the Bronx only has one beach, but it's quite a special one. The mile-long Orchard Beach was proclaimed 'The Riviera of New York' when it was created by Robert Moses in the 1930s.
And photographer Stéphane Missier alias Charles le Brigand has captured some incredibly evocative pictures of the summer beach scenes there.
As Le Brigand explains: 'While New Yorkers have myriad beach options to choose from in Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island and New Jersey, many Bronx inhabitants choose Orchard Beach due to its relatively convenient location.
'It's the quickest way for them to access the sea, sand and sun. And for many families, it is the highlight of the hot summer season.'
Le Brigand visited the main promenade - 'filled with unassuming yet jovial, and admittedly loud, characters' - and the beach - where loungers boasted bronzed, oily flesh adorned with tattoos, exuberant bikinis, flat-top sunglasses and other shiny accessories.'
The photographer concludes: 'There is no hipster-coolness at Orchard Beach. Only raw people, genuine flavor and unbridled attitude. People go to Orchard beach to have fun and they look genuinely happy.
'Orchard Beach is one remaining enclave of the real New York, and there's nothing better than the real New York during summer.'
