Welcome to PsychoDrama! This site contains movie and drama reviews, casting news, trailers, movie posters and information about the latest Japanese productions, including profiles of established and aspiring young actors and actresses. We feature the hitlist - rankings of the hottest Japanese talents and actors' bias articles - where we discuss prominent talents including Shota Sometani, Yuya Yagira, Fumi Nikaido, Sosuke Ikematsu, Masaki Suda, Ryunosuke Kamiki, Ai Hashimoto, Mayu Matsuoka, Mitsuki Takahata, Aoi Morikawa, Hiroya Shimizu, Nijiro Murakami, Hana Sugisaki and many others. Join in our discussion and let us know what you think! Started in March 2012, you can find out more about us here.
Shota Matsuda's performance in Hard Romanticker continues to impress film critics worldwide. The latest buzz for Matsuda's work in this Gu Su-yeon's film is from Twitch.
As part of the blog's Japan Cuts 2012 Preview, Peter Gutierrez said:
You'll certainly be forgiven for experiencing any symptoms of aesthetic déjà vu while watching Gu Su-yeon's flamboyant slice-of-crime opus: with the sound and fury of '70s-era Kinji Fukasaku fight scenes, the overall coolness of Seijun Suzuki, and the off-handed (and borderline absurd) brutality of Takashi Miike's gangster flicks, Hard Romantciker is clearly a treat for a particular brand of cinephile. That said, writer-director Gu does come across as his own artist, not a copycat auteur and, frankly, he's too busy telling a personal story to care much about what cinephiles think. Indeed, even the film's beginning makes few concessions to the audience, opening with a flashforward which is hard to recognize as such and then introducing several characters and relationships in rapid-fire succession before settling down with our point-of-view character. [ read more ]
Shota has done some amazing performances throughout his career, but his role in this movie, is the one that really showcase his talent. It's not an easy role to play nor will it impress most of his fanbase, but it says one thing - Shota wants to prove he's an actor!
More after the jump!
David Hudson @Fandor adds:
For sheer sick kicks, my vote goes to Hard Romanticker, with Shota Matsuda as a badass zainichi (Japanese-born, but of Korean ancestry), whose criminal adventures in a port city parallel gangland rampages, punk rock body counts and the occasional glue-huffing bacchanal." [ read more ]
More about the Movie: Gu (Shota Matsuda) is a hard-nosed Korean-Japanese hoodlum living in Shimonoseki, Japan. When friends "accidentally" kill the grandmother of a ruthless North Korean-Japanese thug, a whirlwind of violence and revenge is set to explode. In the process, Gu, having no fear, pisses off a string of other criminal gang members and Korean-Japanese thugs who all want him dead. There's also Detective Fujita (Atsuro Watabe) lingering in the shadows looking for Gu, but where is Gu?
Meanwhile, Gu lucks his way into a managerial job for a hostess club, run by a suave man named Takagi (Shido Nakamura). Instincts tells Gu that Takagi is more than he seems. In fact, Takagi works for a rival gang and may be involved with drugs. When Gu returns to Shimonoseki all hell is about to break loose.
Are you a fan of Shota Matsuda? Have you seen this movie? Let us know what you think!

The hotel interiors were beautiful and spacious and clean. The location was near the DXB and the Metro green. I didn't use the metro, but it is conveniently located near the one. Taxi is inexpensive in Dubai and I used it from and to the hotel several times.
March 24, 2014
The location is decent, about 5 minute walk from the Metro Station (Green line: Abu Baker Al Siddique). Supermarket across the street from the hotel. Some restaurants nearby, but I did not try them. Concierge was very good with providing direction to tourist sites.

Student Assistant Employment Guidelines For Appropriate Administrators and Supervisors Back to Quick Links
Employment Services (03/2016) Page 7
Determining Pay Rates
Student Assistants are paid on an hourly basis. Student Assistants are not eligible for overtime pay, shift differential, stipends or commissions. The rate of pay should be determined by reviewing the following:
ü Prior related work experience
ü History of work experience in the department
ü Range and complexity of duties
ü Knowledge and skill requirements
ü Comparable to other students within the unit
There are four job levels, each with corresponding pay ranges and criteria for identifying the level. New appointments are generally placed at the minimum of the appropriate pay range to allow growth within the range, and typically never placed higher than the midpoint. When determining a student's pay rate, review other department student assistants' pay for internal equity. Criteria
Level I
Entry level position, under direct supervision, performs routine tasks requiring no previous experience, specific education, or specialized skills.
Level II
Mid-level position, under direct supervision, performs routine and non-routine tasks which require considerable on-the-job training and/or specialized skills. Jobs in this level typically require discretion in judgment and decision-making. Previous experience, education or specialized skills may be required to perform these higher level jobs.
Level III
Mid-level position, under direct supervision, performs a variety of skilled tasks requiring previous experience and/or specialized education, or performs work requiring considerable discretion in judgment and decision- making, including responsibility for coordinating the work of a group of lower level student employees.
Level IV
Highest level position, under direct supervision, completes highly complex assignments requiring specialized knowledge and previous experience. The work is normally within student's course of study at the senior or graduate level and the employee may direct the work of others, consult with others, both on- and off-campus, and may be responsible for the project/assignment from conception through implementation and evaluation. Requires special Employment Services review and approval.
Student Assistants are temporary employees, and their employment may be ended at any time for departmental needs, unsatisfactory performance, or other appropriate reasons.
Fall/spring semester positions automatically at the end of April. Summer positions automatically at the end of August.
To ensure proper payment "FINAL" must be noted on the top of the last voucher submitted for each student. If a department decides to end a Student Assistant appointment prior to the automatic end date, contact Employment Services immediately to discuss the process and ensure appropriate steps are taken to end the appointment.
Discharged employees must be paid immediately on the date the employee is discharged. For all non-retention actions, the Appropriate Administrator should ensure that all department keys or equipment the student assistant may possess are returned and unfinished assignments reviewed before the student leaves the workplace.
Depending on the amount of notice given, the following
72 Hours' Notice or More
If a student resigns voluntarily and wishes to receive his/her paycheck on the regular student payday, the department should submit his/her timesheet through the standard payroll process so the student receives the check on the normal payday. Otherwise, the student receives his/her paycheck on the last day worked. Submit the voucher to payroll with "FINAL" noted on the top.
No Notice or Less than 72 Hours' Notice
If a student resigns voluntarily without giving notice and wishes to receive his/her paycheck within 72 hours, the department should note "final" on the top of the payroll voucher and bring it immediately to Payroll for processing.

Tom Chaffin's The H. L. Hunley is a largely competent history book. The majority of the book (2/3 or so of the text) centers around the building of the Hunley and two prior submarines, along with a recounting of the various unsuccessful and one successful but ill-fated mission of the first submarine to sink an enemy ship. The scholarship seems solid, the writing is engaging, and you feel like you learned a good bit. The main problem is how he deals with the contemporary finding of the Hunley and ...more

This is the story of the H.L. Hunley - the storied Confederate Submarine, the first one to sink an enemy ship. The book encompasses the conception, construction and building of the Hunley, including it's two prototypes. It takes readers from the beginnings in New Orleans through Mobile, AL and then finally to Charleston including it's recovery from the ocean floor in 2000 and the attempts to discover information on what happened to the ship, and identify the remains of the crew.

This is the amazing story of the three Confederate submarines made during the Civil War in an attempt to sink the many Union ships that were blockading the important ports of the South. Only the last vessel was called the Hunley, although the man named Hunley was involved to some degree in the creation and/or piloting of all three. The last vessel was the only successful one: it sank the Union ship Housatonic in Charleston Harbor in 1964. It was a steel, cigar-shaped vessel only 4 feet in diamet ...more

One of the disturbing ironies of history is that technology is most often moved forward by the forces of war. The development of the submarine is no exception. In his lead up to the actually history of the development, construction, and utilization of the H. L. Hunley during the Civil War, Tom Chaffin reports that the chief interest in developing any vessel to travel under water was the advantage of sneaking up on enemy sea craft and sinking them. Upon reading the history of the first submarine ...more

This book tells the story of the building and missions of the Hunley the first submarine to ever sink a ship in battle the USS Housatonic. It starts a bit dry telling of Hunley's life in New Orleans and his early attempts to build a submarine or torpedo boat in both New Orleans and Mobile. It starts to pick up a bit when the boat is transferred to Charleston. Through many accidents, two crews of the submarine perished in training accidents the sub finally sinks the Housatonic and then vanishes. ...more

Thoroughly researched historic review of all the factual information known at the time about the H. L. Hunley, the revolutionary Confederate submarine responsible for sinking the USS Housatonic off the shores of Charleston during the last year of the Civil War. Fascinating subject and well presented although after visiting the Hunley Visitor's Center recently, the information in the book is quickly becoming outdated as archeologists work on the recovered sub in painsaking detail. Hope Mr. Chappi ...more

The Hunley was the first submarine ship to sink an enemy ship which happened in the year 1864. It has a story that captivates many people, a sort of a mysterious allure to it. The Hunley was found and recovered in Charlestown harbour in the early 2000s. This has promoted renewed scholarship and interest in the submarine. The book is short, but captures much of what is known or speculated about the history of the ship from its founding to its demise and beyond. A very good read!

A very fine treatment of the ill-fated Hunley, the world's first successful attack submarine. Chaffin covers the entire sweep of the Hunley's development from the initial vision laid down by several New Orleans partners in 1861 through developmental models in Mobile and ultimately to the sub's loss in 1865. Along the way he's coolly objective and never over-reaches with speculations. Overall: a fine story that's been lost in other narratives of Confederate naval history.

I liked this book, but it took a REALLY long time to get going. It's VERY slow in the beginning but once you get past the first 50 pages or so, it starts to pick up. I live in Charleston and didn't know the entire story until now. It was a very interesting book, and makes me want to go see the Hunley.

This is the most current book on the history of the Hunley. I was surprised to find out that Clive Cussler, who I have been reading a lot, was the person who sponsored the dive team who found it. Great civil war history.

All Rise...
Appellate Judge James A. Stewart cried during Skyfall, but didn't have any hankies left after this one.
The Charge
"I'm afraid, old chap, it really rather looks like we're in the soup."—Jonathan Dakers
Opening Statement
Period dramas are all the rage nowadays in the wake of Downton Abbey. Myself, I've reviewed the new Upstairs, Downstairs and Magic City for DVD Verdict. The above, of course, are filtered through modern eyes, with full knowledge of the years between their settings and their viewers.
My Brother Jonathan, in contrast, is taken from Francis Brett Young's actual "Edwardian romance novel." There may be a touch of modern reshuffling in the adaptation, but the story doesn't seem to have been tinkered with much.
There are a few flashbacks, but the story starts in 1908…
Facts of the Case
Jonathan (Daniel Day-Lewis, Lincoln) is working at the hospital when he learns his father was in an accident. As the news of his father's death sinks in, Jonathan recalls how his father always liked brother Harold (Benedict Taylor, Beau Geste) best. Then news of the family's finances sinks in for both brothers. Jonathan falls for restless Edie (Caroline Bliss, The Living Daylights), who passes in and out of his life as he embarks on general practice. Treating low-income patients, Jonathan gets to know Rachel (Barbara Kellerman, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe), the daughter of his practice partner—and she comes to love him.
The Evidence
The DVD cover describes the source for My Brother Jonathan, Francis Brett Young's book, as an "Edwardian romance novel." Actually, I'd call it more melodrama than romance. It's not just that Jonathan loves Edie, who doesn't want to settle down—at least with him. Brother Harold chides Jonathan at one point for being the sort of bloke who puts others' happiness first, and you realize that Jonathan hasn't let himself fall in love with Rachel, even if he's developing a strong attachment. He just never loosened up for her—or Edie, for that matter.
Sadder still, as Jonathan comes to that realization himself and sets out to rectify his mistake, fate intervenes in, shall we say, particularly fictional ways. I kept hoping there'd be a happy ending—or at least figuring that Young was running out of bad things to happen to poor Jonathan. I hoped in vain. As a romance, Edwardian or otherwise, My Brother Jonathan is a downer.
Still, there are moments when My Brother Jonathan comes alive. James Andrew Hall's adaptation wisely emphasizes Jonathan's battle to make the local hospital accessible to people without means. He keeps fighting—with encouragement from Rachel—even as his own first operation ends in failure. Daniel Day-Lewis makes Jonathan's determination even as he's confronted with his own fallibility fascinating to watch. His performance in this plot thread—mainly in the second and third episodes—makes the unlikely ending chapter a little less painful. Barbara Kellerman's performance as Rachel, conveying deep emotion with an expression or glance, also helps, but given the melodramatic nature of the romantic storyline, it's a blessing that she's very involved in Jonathan's struggles to open up the hospital.
I found no problems with the picture quality. My Brother Jonathan only dates back to 1985, and the concept of reruns was fully understood by then, so there aren't flickers or spots to worry about. The only bonus feature is a travelogue from the Day Out series, which takes a look at Dudley, a town in the Black Country, where My Brother Jonathan is set. It's barely related to the miniseries, but interesting.
The Rebuttal Witnesses
Since the BBC's DVD package emphasizes Daniel Day-Lewis' role, he may have a few fans. He delivers an excellent performance; my qualms about My Brother Jonathan are about the story as a whole. Also, if there are any fans of the original novel out there, I doubt there will ever be a better retelling of this story. I haven't seen the 1948 movie, but I'm not planning to seek it out.
Closing Statement
Two strong performances make My Brother Jonathan watchable, but if you're not in the mood for a tearjerker, the ending could hurt. Ouch! If you're particularly in the mood to see everyone live miserably ever after, this is the perfect miniseries for you.
The Verdict
Not guilty.

Archive of Czech radio Radio Prague the Increase in the number of target marriage without the intention of creating a family, according to representatives of the Police for foreigners, due to the destabilization of Northern Africa. The Arabs, driven by such intentions, often turning their sights on European tourists, older or young girls, recently interrupted an intimate relationship with his friend.
Practice resorted to by young men from North Africa, described, Ladislav Hires from the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Tunisia. "Working in hotels animators aged 20 to 30 years often are members quasicriminal groups, which share the "tricks" to lure Europeans in their networks. Someone was playing the love at first sight, someone endows a woman of no value "family jewels" and the like. Often very young boys preparing for a career seducer under the guidance of someone older".
Czech tourists are returning, mainly from Tunisia, Algeria or Egypt so that they begin to have serious relationships with local men, so they are going to get married and going to live in the Czech Republic. A significant number of such marriages do not perform their functions, and these men subsequently disappear from the territory of the Czech Republic. This year we have registered twenty such cases in respect of which criminal proceedings were instituted on suspicion of involvement in the fictitious marriage. Monthly from 18 to 20 similar cases suspicion are reviewed
Photo: Public Domain says the head of analytical Department of the Police for foreigners Vladimir Takacs. Despite the fact that these men do not live with cercami in one apartment, women claim to see them once a month, and they say, this is enough. The truth about the true nature of the relationship women reveal in most cases, only when escaped from them husbands breaking anything – for example, will seriously owe, and the law enforcement agencies will implement measures to recover accrued liabilities. More chances to know the truth from suspects, the investigators appears in the case when the woman entered into a marriage solely for selfish motives.
Is gym shoes from socially weak segments of the population, source of income which are exclusively social benefits. They receive at the conclusion of such fake marriage from 30 to 50 thousand CZK (about 1825 Euro) and are silent about this fact. Subsequently, this results in their criminal prosecution for fraud, said Vladimir Takacs.
In 2011, the police of the Czech Republic failed to disclose the activities of the Czech-Nigerian criminal groups consisting of eleven men, which became the mediator of 27 conclusion of marriages. A group from Prague was led by a Nigerian.
How many sham marriages themselves are guilty of gym shoes?
Illustrative photo: Archive of Czech radio Radio Prague nevertheless, in Prague multicultural environment, there are many who warns that one should not mix indiscriminately migrants seeking at any cost to flee their country, and foreigners, including Africans, who build their personal relationship with the Czech partners of sincere love and respect. This discourse is constructed on the basis of not so convincing in the number of cases that relate only to one or two nationalities, while not comparative statistics in relation to other nationalities and does not appear accurate statistics on what percentage of marriages of the total number are responsible themselves Czechs, says our interlocutor Carolina novotná from Prague.
– I have many Czech friends who live in civil or in a registered marriage with a foreigner, but I don't think that among such unions it is possible to observe a significant deviation from accepted society norms of interpersonal relations. In all these cases, national-mixed marriages I see positive examples of how both partners equally good care of their descendants. And foreigners often even better care for children than, say, ethnic Czechs, because this concern stems from their adoption of traditional values of the local culture, when the head of the family is required to provide. Often it is in their face we see exemplary partners, and they give warmth and love not only their own descendants, but children and wife from a previous marriage,
concludes novotná, believing, that in this case we are probably dealing with a cliché of innocent victims is forced on us by the media.

A new modeling effort exploring the opportunities, constraints, and interactions between mitigation and adaptation at regional scale is utilizing stakeholder engagement in an innovative approach to guide model development and demonstration, including uncertainty characterization, to effectively inform regional decision making. This project, the integrated Regional Earth System Model (iRESM), employs structured stakeholder interactions and literature reviews to identify the most relevant adaptation and mitigation alternatives and decision criteria for each regional application of the framework. The information is used to identify important model capabilities and to provide a focus for numerical experiments. This paper presents the stakeholder research results from the first iRESM pilot region. The pilot region includes the Great Lakes Basin in the Midwest portion of the United States as well as other contiguous states. This geographic area (14 states in total) permits cohesive modeling of hydrologic systems while also providing strong gradients in climate, demography, land cover/land use, and energy supply and demand. The results from the stakeholder research indicate that, for this region, iRESM should prioritize addressing adaptation alternatives in the water resources, urban infrastructure, and agriculture sectors, including water conservation, expanded water quality monitoring, altered reservoir releases, lowered water intakes, urban infrastructure upgrades, increased electric power reserves in urban areas, and land use management/crop selection changes. For mitigation in this region, the stakeholder research implies that iRESM should focus on policies affecting the penetration of renewable energy technologies, and the costs and effectiveness of energy efficiency, bioenergy production, wind energy, and carbon capture and sequestration.

This is a novel to get lost in. "Miami Herald"
Lita del Cielo has been granted one year to pursue her studies in Paris before returning to work in the family business. She moves into a gently crumbling Left Bank mansion known as The House of Stars, where the spirited but bedridden Countess Seraphine rents out rooms to young women visiting Paris to work, study, and, unofficially, to find love. Guarded at first, Lita keeps a cool distance from the other girls, who both intimidate and fascinate her. Then Lita meets the charming and enigmatic, Cato, the son of a notorious right-wing politician, and her world shifts. "It's Not Love, It's Just Paris" is a spellbinding love story, a portrait of a Paris caught between old world grandeur and the international greenblood elite, and an exploration of one woman's journey to distinguish honesty from artifice and lay claim to her own life.

Occupy MN: Protesters occupy veteran Bobby Hull's foreclosed home [VIDEO]
Demonstrators kick off the occupation of Bobby Hull's home.
While many fret about the waning momentum of the larger Occupy movement, Occupy Foreclosures seems to be picking up steam.
Occupy MN has been involved in an attempt to save three homeowners from eviction -- the latest is Marine veteran Bobby Hull. Yesterday afternoon, 100 demonstrators gathered on the front lawn of his Richfield home and declared their intention to halt Hull's February 17th eviction date. If they cannot, they will refuse to leave.
Hull was a self-employed mason who opened his two-story, four-bedroom home up to family members who were struggling with their own issues during the down economy. He lives with his nephew and his son; another nephew, his wife and their four kids; a daughter-in-law and Hull's granddaughter.
Bobby Hull and his family.
After some serious health issues -- everything from a reconstruction on his shoulder to a series of heart attacks -- Hull was unable to work and made his last payment on his mortgage a year ago. He applied for a mortgage modification under Obama's Home Affordable Modification Program, and was offered one by his lender, Bank of America. But between confusing paperwork and unmanageable payments, nothing worked. The home was sold at a sheriff's sale in August.
Members of Occupy Minneapolis announced back in late October that they were recruiting families going through foreclosure to participate in Occupy Foreclosure actions. They also began looking up foreclosed homes on real estate databases and knocking on the doors to find out if homeowners wanted to participate. That's how they found Hull.
"Next thing I knew she had a whole force of civilians out here that would have made the Marine Corps proud," he said yesterday afternoon as he helped make chili for the occupiers' first night in his home. "I'm a Marine. We love to fight."
Hull was also expecting more guests for dinner yesterday evening -- a camera crew from MSNBC. The occupation of his home was also featured prominently on the Huffington Post yesterday.
3712 Columbus Avenue South
As the media grows weary of the usual Occupy headlines, organizer Nick Espinosa says he hopes to drum up major support both locally and nationally for Occupy Foreclosures. Hull's home will become a meeting place once a week for discussions on a foreclosure moratorium. Occupiers will also be canvassing the neighborhood twice a week looking for supporters and -- potentially -- more houses to occupy.
"When homeowners see other people going through what they're going through and see them standing up, it gives them strength," says Espinosa. "I think that's been the most powerful thing about the work we've been doing."
The technique is already being tested in one of Occupy Foreclosure's other camps -- Monique White's home in North Minneapolis, where occupiers have been in-residence for a month. White was supposed to be evicted around Thanksgiving and so far, that hasn't happened.
"Every day we're there is a victory," says Espinosa. "One more day she and her family get to stay in their community."

The Stranger Suggests:
(SERIOUS SOUL) As the president of the Stranger Negro Club, I want to give Choklate's new CD, Choklate, our full endorsement.

"The response to Satyamev Jayate was so strong that we felt we will take one more step ahead and focus on one topic. We decided to work on water and Maharashtra. Water is important and Maharashtra is my birth place. I feel if we respect water, water will respect us so we all need to come together for this," said Aamir Khan
"As a citizen of the country, who has given us Satyamev Jayate, Aamir has every right to be worried. Why are people blowing it out of proportion? When people like Sadhvi make such remarks, that kind of thing is really divisive. But nobody chastised her, nobody took her to task as they took Aamir to task " Aparna Sen said
"I love him (Aamir). He has a magnetic quality. The activism and social justice work that he does is amazing. Also, his television show Satyamev Jayate is great. He (Aamir) is like Oprah Winfrey. Upfront, who used to spread awareness regarding several issues on the show," said Ava DuVernay
"Satyamev Jayate is a show about people, who are achievers in their own right and other problems. But Heroes is a show which is about real stories of people who overcame what they felt was their difficulty and obstacle. So it is about individual stories," said Hrithik
Bollywood actor Aamir Khan has been invited to be one of the speakers at the 'Women in the World Summit' in New York. The actor's award- winning show Satyamev Jayate impressed organisers and the star was invited to participate and share the platform with high profile guests such as actors Helen Mirren and Meryl Streep, writer Elif Shafak and DuPont CEO Ellen Kullman.
This week, in conversation with one of the leading actors in the Indian film industry, Aamir Khan. The versatile actor talks about turning 50, his career, controversies and more. He also tells NDTV why he'll never join active politics and how he has a lot of hopes from PM Modi and his government: "We are hoping that they deliver all the promises they made." Asked if he was concerned about remarks by people like Sadhvi Prachi who asked for the Khan films to be boycotted and posters torn up, he retorted, " it has no impact... when ekka dukka people who come up and say, you know in life all kinds of people say all kinds of things." On concerns expressed by church leaders about safety and issues like the beef ban he said, "When minorities are threatened or majority, anyone is threatened... we look towards our leaders to take a strong and firm action but when we see silence from the people who we have selected in situations like this, it is disappointing." (Read transcript here)
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's five-year Clean India campaign has found a celebrity supporter in actor Aamir Khan. The Dhoom: 3 star told the press today: "I clean up at home and our office is waste-free. We should all support the Prime Minister in this step." Aamir, whose social activism TV show Satyamev Jayate has highlighted issues such as female foeticide and medical malpractices, also said, "I will be happy if they offer me this responsibility."
At the launch of his show Satyamev Jayate's third season, actor Aamir Khan could not hold back his tears while talking about how deeply some of the show's subjects had affected him and how helpless he sometimes felt.
Aamir Khan, who is experimenting with his looks for his upcoming movie Dhoom: 3, looked perfectly in shape at recent press conference in Mumbai. We wonder whether this is Aamir's Dhoom: 3 look?
Superstar Aamir Khan today met with Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot to discuss his plea for the speedy trial of female foeticide cases highlighted on his new TV show Satyamev Jayate. Mr Gehlot has agreed to Aamir's request of a fast track court to resolve all pending cases.
Celebrities took to the Twitter and bestowed their positive reaction for Aamir's new show, Satyamev Jayate.
Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan?? met Malayalam superstar Mohanlal during his visit to Kochi recently. Aamir was in the southern city to promote his debut TV show Satyamva Jayate.

There's a two-way approach to protect bicyclists rolling through Park Slope.
It's called two-way streets, residents say.
Bolstered by the tragic death of a neighborhood bicyclist last month, residents have started a renewed push to turn both Prospect Park West and Eighth Avenue from one-way streets into two-way streets.
Attendees at a recent neighborhood forum at the Park Slope Community Book Store on Seventh Avenue near Carroll Street floated the idea.
Those in attendance at the forum, which focused on traffic issues in Park Slope, said that traffic on Prospect Park West and Eighth Avenue would slow considerably if the streets were made two-way.
Slower traffic would create safer conditions for both bicyclists and pedestrians, they said.
Currently, neither Prospect Park West nor Eighth Avenue are one way – Prospect Park West heading southbound and Eighth Avenue heading northbound. Neither streets have bike lanes, officials said.
Last month, Sackett Street resident Jonathan Milstein was struck down by a bus when he pedaled past the corner of Eighth Avenue and President Street.
It was unclear if speeding played a role in his death – which someone memorialized last week by placing a body outline near the corner where the accident took place.
Next to the outline was Milstein's name, the date of his death, and the epitaph, "killed by bus."
Roughly a week earlier, an eight-year-old boy was also killed while riding a bike, this time in Boerum Hill.
If the push for a two-way Prospect Park West and Eighth Avenue gains momentum, it will have the blessing of the bicycle advocacy group Transportation Alternatives, who recently demanded that the city conduct a three month study to determine the traffic impacts if Prospect Park was closed to all vehicular traffic.
Last year, Transportation Alternatives held a study that determined that cars and trucks on Eighth Avenue generally travel about 40 miles an hour – much higher than the 30 mile per hour speed limit.
The group then studied traffic conditions on Seventh Avenue, determining that cars and trucks on the two-way thoroughfare travel about 25 miles an hour.
DOT officials said that there is no need for changing the streets, since they have already reduced traffic by staggering the signal lights.
According to their studies, the signal changes have reduced traffic to 20 miles per hour.
Last week's forum was not sponsored by Community Board 6, but rather a concerned group of residents connected with the neighborhood book shop.
The book store holds meetings to address neighborhood issues on the third Wednesday of every month.
"We take the word 'community' in our name very seriously," said one employee.

I often want to cross refernce headings in a document e.g "this will require extra work, as detailed in New Functionality". When I inset such a X-ref, it just shows as normal text and gives no indication it's a link unless you mouse-over it, which isn't helpful when printing.
Can I easily control some styles for X-refs, such as underlining? What about causing numbering from headings "See 1.2.3 Bananas for more information"?

457 Visa News, 457 Visa Updates and Comments
sc457 workers will lose jobs if income threshold is increased
Migration AllianceIn order to allow passage of the China free-trade agreement, the Coaltion government is considering Labor's compromise proposals, one of which requires that that the income threshold for sc457 workers is increased from the current levels.
"Townsville's SafetyCulture 'desperate' for engineers, raises $6.1m at $50m valuation to lure them"
(c) www.brw.com.auAnear sees SafetyCulture's headcount of 45 doubling over the next year, and says anything the new Malcolm Turnbull administration can do to streamline 457 visa processing would be welcome.
"Unions demonise foreign labour but employ their own 457s"
Senator Michaelia Cash Assistant Minister for Immigration and Border Protection
The revelation that multiple trade unions in Australia have employed subclass 457 visa holders is an act of incredible hypocrisy and duplicity given the long-term campaign the union movement has waged against the 457 programme.

"Greater scrutiny of sc457 visa applications leading to fall in the number of grants"
(c) migrationalliance.com.au
The number of 457 applications surged 15.3% in the year ending March 2015 but the number of actual grants slipped by over 4.1% according to the latest statistics released by the department of immigration.
There were 40,870 subclass 457 primary visa applications lodged in that time, an increase of 15.3 per cent from 35,440 grants in the same period in the previous year.
"Red tape gone mad: "mistakes such as typos and spelling errors could make an application void"
(c) migrationalliance.com.au
Businesses in the Northern Territory have slammed the Federal Government for unnecessary delays and red tape which they say is affecting the ability of businesses to get the skilled foreign workers they urgently need.
In February 2014, the Federal Government announced an independent review of the 457 visa worker program and then in May relaxed the English language competency requirement for foreign workers.
Opinion: When local jobs dry up, so too should 457 visa numbers
© couriermail.com.au
The engineering profession has just struggled through 29
consecutive months of declining job vacancies and if the 457 visa system
was working properly, we would also be seeing a big decline in the
number of 457 visas granted to plug skills gaps in the engineering
But we're not.
The 457 visas exist to allow Australian companies to recruit the best skills for their projects on a needs basis.
Scheme to help protect 457 visa workers from injuries quietly shelved

Andy Zhang's arm is cased in skin-coloured bandages that mask the reality of the mangled flesh beneath.
It hangs by his side, lifelessly, as a permanent reminder of the six months he worked as a machine operator on a 457 visa in Melbourne's west, when he was allegedly exploited by his bosses and exposed to grave danger.
Unions concerned about 457 visa changes

PRIME Minister Tony Abbott will overhaul the skilled worker program as
part of his innovation and competitiveness agenda because the government
wanted the process to be more flexible for business.
The application process for the temporary visa program will be streamlined, and English language testing relaxed, Mr Abbott said.

Employees at a major Western Australian dairy factory are being paid up to 30 per cent less than their eastern states counterparts, but many are afraid to speak up because they are on foreign worker visas, the union says.

It may seem strange that Arsenal are being linked with a player who failed to impress at West Brom, but the Spanish midfielder Borja Valero has been a key figure in the success of the Serie A club Fiorentina this season. The 28-year old joined the Italian club from Villareal in the summer and has been a fixture in the Fiorentina side, scoring twice and setting up 10 goals in their race to qualify for the Champions League.

Giroud warns Arsenal about Montpellier in Champions League
Olivier Giroud was one of the main reasons for Montpellier's success, before he signed for Arsenal this summer. The big striker has warned his team mates at the Emirates that there is plenty of talent left in the French side, despite their struggles so far this season. Like a wounded animal, the French champions could be dangerous and could put a spanner in to the works of Arsenal's European campaign.
Montpellier ready to throw everything at Arsenal
Montpellier have had a terrible start to their defence of the first French title in the club's history, losing three of the first five. This has caused mass optimism in the Arsenal ranks but we should be wary of the French champions on their home soil tonight.
