Day one of Cannes 2012 is so over, drifting off on the breeze of yesterday. We're all about today, day two.That was then, this is now.
If, like me, you find yesterday is so far away that you've forgotten what happened, here's Charlotte Higgins' summary from last night. And as Cannes is nothing if not about fancy frocks and smirking A-listers, we'll be posting a gallery of the red-carpet show before the festival opener, Moonrise Kingdom. Meanwhile, we'll soon have a video review of the film from Peter, Xan and Catherine.
But let's look forward. The big film today is Rust & Bone, the new one from Jacques Audiard. Now, if anyone is due a Palme d'Or it's him: his awesome A Prophet was unlucky to come up against the terrifyingly brilliant White Ribbon in 2010, and his previous work – the brilliant Beat That My Heart Skipped, the thrilling Read My Lips, and wonderful Self-Made Hero – puts him at the very front rank of international film directors. So if Rust turns out to be any good, I have a sneaking feeling Audiard will be in with a major shout. So look out for Peter's review, which will be coming over at around lunchtime.
The other biggie today is Yousry Nasrallah's After the Battle, the one unashamedly political film in the competition line-up. No one outside Egypt knows much about him, but as his film is set in the aftermath of the anti-Mubarak revolution, it couldn't be more topical. For more info, here's a quick Q&A from Screen Comment.
And voilà! As promised, here's the latest edition of the Guardian Film Show, hot from the Croisette, featuring our team looking back at last night's screening of Moonrise Kingdom.
Sooooo... let's have a nose through the trades and see what's happened overnight and this morning.
• Paul "Crash" Haggis has wrapped up financing on a new project, Third Person. Haggis's follow-up to The Next Three Days features, it says here, "three interlocking storylines, all love stories set in Rome, Paris and New York". Liam Neeson, Olivia Wilde and Naomi Watts have apparently signed up. Haggis, as might be recalled, has taken on Scientology in a big way, so it's good to see him back in the game. Full story here.
• Devil's Knot, a feature-film treatment of the West Memphis Three satanic-killing case, has announced it is about to go ahead, with Colin Firth and Reese Witherspoon in the lead roles. Atom Egoyan, who made the wonderful Sweet Hereafter, is the director. Full story here.
Breaking news! Peter Bradshaw has just filed his Rust and Bone review, and it gets four big stars. Here's a taste:
What could have been simply bizarre, sentimental or contrived here becomes an utterly absorbing love story; Rust & Bone is a tale of a miraculous friendship which evolves into an enthralling and moving romance, wonderfully acted by Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts. Jacques Audiard directs, and his screenplay, co-written with Thomas Bidegain, is freely adapted from characters in the short story collection of the same title, by the American author Craig Davidson. This is early days in the festival, but Rust And Bone has to be a real contender for prizes, and, the odds will be shortening to vanishing point for Cotillard getting the Best Actress award.
Full review coming right up.
Here's a few more Rust and Bone verdicts, not all totally positive.
Rust & Bone: a tough, sinewy middleweight to Un Prophete's heavyweight. Strong playing & darting camera transcends slushy material #Cannes

Am knocked out by Audiard's visceral Rust and Bone #cannes - stunned and bloodied
— Jason Solomons (@JasonCritic) May 17, 2012
New Audiard film at Cannes, Rust and bone, pretty terrible and rambling in all...with some great showy moments...
— Dave Calhoun (@davecalhoun) May 17, 2012
Audiard's cautious romance between a woman who loses her legs and a street fighter RUST AND BONE feels too contrived #Cannes2012
— Nick James (@filmnickjames) May 17, 2012
And this from Charlotte Higgins:
I thought Rust and Bone was very powerful. Shot in neighbouring Antibes, but a quite different Cote d'Azur from the Cannes we know from the red carpet: illegal bare-knuckle boxing; supermarket security guards; down-at-heel boites: Cote d'Azur noir.
The body's power and its limits evidently preoccupied Audiard in this movie. That's code for "very violent". I covered my eyes for chunks of it.
Back to the trades.
• Nice to see Julien Temple pushing them out: he's got a yet another city-based music doco on the go. Children of the Revolution: This Is Rio is an account of Brazil's multifarious, and politically radical, musical history and will come straight after BabyLon/don, his Olympics-timed look at London. More here.
• Pedro Almodovar goes airborne... I kid you not. His new one is set on board a plane fight to Mexico. Javier Camara, Cecilia Roth and Lola Duenas are lined up for it, and financing has been locked down. Title? Los Amantes Pasajeros. Read all about it here.
• The adaptation of Nick Hornby's novel A Long Way Down is firming up. Imogen Poots, Pierce Brosnan, Toni Collette and Emile Hirsh are signed up, as is director Pascal Chaumeil. For details, glance this way.
• Iranian Oscar winner Ashar Farhadi has announced the follow-up to A Separation: an as-yet-untitled film set in Paris, starring Marion Cotillard – currently wowing them in Rust & Bone. Full story below, from Screen Daily.
Marion Cotillard has committed to star in Asghar Farhadi's next feature, Alexander Mallet-Guy at Memento Films Production has announced.
It is the first time Mallet-Guy is producing Farhadi, having distributed his previous pictures – About Elly and A Separation – in France, where the latter was a breakout art-house chalking up one million admissions. The film's international box office stands at $25 million.
The shoot of the €11 million picture will take place in Paris this autumn. It is the first time Farhadi has shot outside of his native Iran.
Details of the storyline are under wraps while Farhadi finalises the script. Mallet-Guy revealed, however, that the film will be an emotional social thriller in the vein of A Separation, with multiple twists aimed at keeping the audience in suspense from the first frame to the last.
Talking to the Film Français, Asghar Farhadi said his aim was to, "present the viewers of my films with questions rather than answers; something the world needs more than ever today. Posing new questions to old answers. Perhaps this cinema can be named an inquiring cinema."
Cannes sexism row that's been rumbling along for the last few weeks: Andrea Arnold and Diane Kruger step up to the plateWe've got a bit more on the
the gallery of last night's opening gala: Cannes at its glitzy best.Better late than never, here's
Right, a bit more action. Xan Brooks has sent us his review of the Egyptian competition film After the Battle: not a huge fan, unfortunately. He gives it two stars.
And Xan has also just filed his second Cannes diary; today he's pondering Rust and Bone, which was shown to the press this morning. Here's a small preview:
Audiard's Palme d'Or contender is tough and sinuous, robustly acted by Cotillard and Schoenaerts and rustling up a compelling picture of the France beyond the Palais, where unlicensed fights play out on scrubland and desperate men roll cigarettes outside cheap cafes.
Full piece will be launched shortly.
Another good story from the trades: Paul "Bourne" Greengrass is going to make a documentary about FC Barcelona. Here's Screen Daily's story:
Paul Greengrass is preparing to shoot the FC Barcelona documentary Barça. Anonymous Content is financing and will handle US sales and FilmNation will handle international.
The project will trace the rise of the superstar team under ex-coach Pep Guardiola over four years to the pinnacle of the world game.
Richard Brown will produce for Anonymous Content and sports and political writer John Carlin will serve as executive producer.
"I'm excited to tell the extraordinary story of Barça and their magnificent achievements under Pep Guardiola on film," Greengrass said. "They have given the world a rare glimpse of sporting perfection, and memories that will last for as long as the game is played."
second of Xan Brooks' Cannes diaries has just gone up - well worth a read.The
the director of Iron Sky fulminating against the single-day release of his film in the UK. I can't say I'm a massive fan of the film, but I feel his pain.Nothing to do with Cannes, but just seen this:
the struggle to make After the Battle.Just launched Charlotte Higgins' report on
The film was made over eight months, from March to October 2011, with events in real time dictating its story. Co-scriptwriter Omar Schama would sometimes write through the night for a scene to be shot the following morning.
In my humble opinion, Jacques Audiard is the coolest person at the entire festival: he's like a Jean-Pierre Melville character come to life. Just that hat alone is worth 57 Bill Murrays. There's a bit more from JA in the Cannes in Pictures gallery we'll be posting shortly.
today's picture gallery - Rust and Bone people, Madagascar 3, and some hapless soul presumably paid to walk around in Charlie Chaplin get-up.Here's
That's about it from me today; look out for the Rust and Bone red carpet pictures which should go up tonight. Tomorrow we head for a dose of Reality from Gomorrah director Matteo Garrone. See you then.

Palliative Therapy for Terminal illnesses
Terminal care is that care a patient is given in the end stages of disease before death. Terminal and palliative care services are important to the family physician, because most patients want to die at home. Therefore most patients arrived at this stage refuse admission or if admitted to hospital discharge request.
The most common diseases that reach irreversible phase are :-
a. Pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary failure
b. Heart failure
c. Liver cirrhosis
d. Chronic renal failure
e. Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, demented
f. Lung cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, lymphoma, etc.
Disclosure of the diagnosis of incurable stage: Although the diagnosis of cancer or cirrhosis has been some bad news, the diagnosis of incurable stage is much worse news because it means death within a relatively short period of the sick person. However the family physician must communicate this to the patient and family. To communicate the diagnosis of incurable stage, the family doctor must first determine whether the patient would like to know this and if it is ready to learn, and if the patient would like to know the truth about his illness, the family doctor patient must communicate this with more tact:
a. To find the time and place
b. To respect the to the patient sensitivity
c. use appropriate expression according to the level of understanding of to the patient
d. to show compassion and attachment
e. to respond to the patient questions
f. Do not rule out any hope of the sick person
g. Establish realistic objectives
h. To ensure the patient that it will do everything possible
Palliative Therapy for the patient and family
Palliative therapy for the patients: Most patients in irreversible stage show a state of anxiety and mental depression. Therefore patients suffering irreversible phase must be supported psychological doctor. Although we can not expect an improvement in the health of the patient, supportive psychotherapy is needed to combat anxiety and depression, the patient's condition worsens.
Palliative Therapy for the family : As the illness of a family member is a very important stress and death of a family member is an even greater stress, the family doctor must give due weight and psychological support of the family. In this sense, the family doctor should inform their family and to prepare properly, to learn what to do.
Spiritual support to patient : Although of the sick person spiritual support is required in all cases, but perhaps in any other situation, of the sick person spiritual support is not necessary in terminal stages of life. For in no other situation of life the patient is not tempted to question the meaning of life and death.
Therefore the family doctor is supposed to listen to the patient that addresses these problems. Help him understand the deep meanings of life and death. In this respect, as well as the family doctor to work with the priest, the psychiatrist and psychologist.
Providing a dignified end : Though the disease is incurable and one cannot do anything to stop the disease, the patient needs to have a dignified end. As shown in medical ethics code, incurable patients should be treated with the same care and attention as other patients. And as shown in the Declaration concerning the rights of the patient, any person is entitled to human care and to die in dignity.

editor's review
1 comment
Video editing is no longer a job for professionals. You can put together some of your own photos or videos and use one of many editing tools out there to give them a professional look. One of these tools is Foto2Avi, a complex program that packs quite some editing options.
Clean feature lineup
After installing it you are facing a rather simple interface that allows you to browse for files and easily add them to the output area where you can start editing them. The editing window reveals the application's true capabilities, as Foto2Avi offers you a multitude of effects, animations and tools.
Editing operations
You can add a logo to your video, transparency masks or watermarks to clearly state that this is your work. Choose from a wide variety of transition effects and customize their duration to create professional-looking sideshows from your photo collections.
Adjust the hue, saturation, brightness or contrast effects to your liking and apply different settings to specific files you use in creating a video. Add noise, grayscale or sepia effects if you want your video to get that vintage look.
Image slideshow settings
If you are looking to give more life to your presentation, especially when using only images, just add an audio file and set fading or echoing effects to emphasize your message. You can use different sound files and alternate them with pinpoint precision so that your image synchronizes perfectly with the sound track. As an alternative, you could add subtitles to your project, the application allowing you to adjust their position manually or automatically, according to your specifications.
A few flaws
As for the shortcomings, the application has an easy-to-use browsing interface but it does not offer a preview function for the selected files or a filter to arrange files by type. To compensate that, it allows you to activate the drag-and-drop mode so you can and add files easier to the output area. Be careful though, as this option has its inconvenience: if you try adding invalid or unsupported files the software application crashes.
Bottom line
To wrap it up, Foto2Avi could be what you are looking for if you want to get cool videos out of your media files, as it comes packed with plenty of features for helping you set up the editing process in detail.

African black-footed penguins take a peek outside their exhibit at the Seneca Park Zoo.
We lost our dear Amanda last Dec. 4 in a terrible car accident. Amanda was a bright, 25-year-old who had accomplished so much in such a short time. She loved God, kids and penguins.
The day of the accident she had just finished her master's program at Nazareth College. Amanda's undergrad certification was in Elementary Education (second-sixth grades) as well as in Special Education from SUNY Geneseo, but wanting to connect even more with her students, she pursued a master's degree in Information Technology.
Amanda was special. Everyone thinks their child is special, but if you talk to anyone ...

The second most expensive purchase for most consumers over the course of their lives is an automobile. Along with the base cost of the automobile, one must factor in gas, maintenance and insurance into the total cost of ownership. By the time this is done, a consumer can end up with quite a sticker shock. Since we cannot really control the cost of gas or oil changes we have to look elsewhere for savings opportunities. One of the first places to look in order to reduce the overall cost of ownership for an automobile is the automobile insurance policy.
Most insurance companies will offer discounts to customers for meeting certain criteria. For example, some companies will offer good-driver discounts to customers who have remained accident and ticket free for a minimum period of time. Allstate offers this type of discount for it's policyholders who have been accident free for three years and even offers a greater discount at five years. They call it a premier and premier plus discount. If you happen to fall within this category and have been with the same insurer for a few years, it may be worth a call to see if they offer a similar discount and if you qualify. Other discounts are available for those taking approved driving courses such as defensive-driving class or good student discounts for younger drivers who are enrolled in school and maintain a minimum grade point average. Discounts are also made available to senior citizens typically of age 55 or 65 and older.
The equipment on your car may also allow you to qualify for some valuable discounts on your automobile insurance policy. As automotive technology and safety engineering has advanced over the years, insurance companies have begun to offer discounts for some equipment that is now standard on many new cars. This is due in large part because of the savings it affords the cheap car insurance companies over the long term. For example, having an anti-theft device on the car will typically qualify for a discount on your insurance policy. This makes sense since fewer cars being stolen equates to fewer payouts for the insurance company. If your automobile is harder to steal then it should be cheaper to insure.
Other equipment designed to protect an automobile's occupants during an accident or prevent them from happening at all also may qualify you for discounts on the automobile insurance policy. Anti-lock braking systems have been around for a while and have made a significant impact in reducing accidents. Airbags are another technological advancement that has helped reduce injuries when an accident occurs. Instead of having someone's head slam into a steering wheel or windshield, the airbag deploys automatically upon detection of an accident to soften the blow. Once again, reduced injuries leads to cheap car insurance rates and a lower premium for you. Now that you know what to look for, get on that phone and speak with your local insurance agent to see if qualify for a hefty discount.

At the upcoming Los Alamos Community Winds concert, two seasoned performers will be featured as soloists – and they haven't even graduated from high school.
Adam Nekimken, trombonist, and Kathy Lin, pianist, will each perform a solo piece during the concert, which will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday at the White Rock Baptist Church.
Nekimken, a junior at Los Alamos High School, will perform the first movement of "Prlude et Divertissement" by Robert Clerisse. Nekimken said he has played with LACW since 2003. He explained his music instructor, Ted Vives, is also the director of the community winds and invited Nekimken to join. "And I've enjoyed it ever since," Nekimken said. "(I) just enjoy playing music and having a lot of fun. It's a really high caliber group, especially for a community (ensemble)."
The experience has taught him to play better in other large ensembles and exposed him to high caliber music, Nekimken said.
In addition to the LACW concert, Nekimken will display his musical abilities on another stage: May 25, he will perform at Carnegie Hall in New York.
Nekimken will represent Los Alamos in the National Collegiate Wind Ensemble. The conductor will be H. Robert Reynolds.

For 2010, Samsung updates its midrange H100 series with the significantly different H200 series, and rolls out backside-illuminated sensors throughout its HD products.
The new camera has a lot of the same basic specs as the iPhone 5S, but gets some new tech for better photos and video.
The latest phone-camera hybrid from Samsung will be available in Australia later this year, according to the company.

Food Label Awareness: Celiac Disease
Posted By Allergic Living On 2010/08/30 @ 12:00 pm In Celiac Disease | No Comments
Reading labels is a way of life when you have celiac disease. Before eating anything in a package, be sure to read the label carefully. Look for hidden [2] sources of gluten and for other names, such as food starch, seasoning and hydrolyzed vegetable protein.
Also be on the lookout for precautionary statements. These are statements that indicate gluten may be in the food, due to cross contamination. Examples of precautionary statements include: "May contain gluten" and "Manufactured in a facility that also processes wheat."
If you are ever uncertain about whether a food product is safe for you, call the manufacturer to confirm. When in doubt, don't eat it.
In Canada, new regulations have been proposed that would require food manufacturers list priority allergens, including gluten, in plain language on packaging. Ingredients of ingredients that are priority allergens would also have to be listed. For example, manufacturers couldn't simply list "modified starch" if the source of the starch is wheat.
More on Canada's Food Allergen Regulations [3]
Health Canada is also reviewing its gluten-free labeling requirements. Specifically, it is looking at whether a change should be made to the rule that food made with oats cannot be labeled gluten-free. This is in light of the fact that pure, uncontaminated oats are safe for most people with celiac disease and are available in Canada. More [4] on the proposed changes.
In the United States, the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act, which went into effect in 2006, requires manufacturers to use plain language when listing priority allergens, and to declare all allergens either in the ingredient list, or in a "contains:" statement at the end of the list. This act encompasses wheat, but not other sources of gluten.
Currently in the United States there is no rule governing what can be called "gluten-free" on a food label. A rule was proposed in 2007, but has not been approved.

Comments about Rock House Beginner Acoustic Guitar (DVD):
I have never had any formal training. I learned to play when I was in college just by hanging out with some guys who played all the time. I started learning things that improved my technic immediately. This is a great course for any novice who wants to improve his skills!
Comments about Rock House Beginner Acoustic Guitar (DVD):
Better than most, there seems to be more organized stuff here. They breeze through the basics in chunks that most players can easily absorb. Don't expect much theory or detailed musical constructs. The beginner songs are boring. You won't be playing them long, though. With some dedicated practice, that is.
Comments about Rock House Beginner Acoustic Guitar (DVD):
I have several other beginner dvds/cds/books and this one is the best. Easy to follow, clear instructions. Great dvd and booklet for the money!

Trauma Insurance
Trauma insurance pays you a lump sum payment in the event that you are diagnosed with a specified illness (up to 45 major illnesses – depending on insurer) including (but not limited to) things like cancer, heart attack, stroke etc. Trauma insurance is designed to give you money when you need it most. It is the most expensive product, however it is the one that's most claimed upon and that's reflective in the cost! An example of this – if you were to suffer from cancer and were to be off work for a couple of years due to chemo, stress etc, your life insurance would not pay out, your TPD insurance would not pay out because you will return to work one day, however your trauma insurance would give you that lump sum payment to ease the financial pressures of not working.

Contemporary Australian Home Inspired by Summer Fun
By Freshome.com - Interior Design & Architecture Magazine on Apr 03, 2013
The Canterbury Residence, designed by Canny is a graceful contemporary home in Australia, inspired by the summer breeze and sun. Let's start with the terrace. Perceived as a floating wooden "island", lost in the middle of the swimming pool, the terrace is a gorgeous place to sit and enjoy your lemonade on a hot summer day or to relax and listen to the whisper of nature, at dawn.
The fully-tiled pool with granite stepping stones pairs beautifully with the stonework of the adjacent alfresco area; and the decking flowsuninterruptedlyfrom the polished floorboards of the main living area to provide an inviting exterior island oasis.
The residence is characterised by transparence. Most of the walls were replaced by sliding windows, bringing more light and incorporating more of the "outside" inside. Neat, elegant and very spacious (with 4 bedrooms and 4 living areas), the Canterbury Residence is the ultimate dream house for those who dream of a carefree lifestyle.

Meditation Retreat in Chiang Mai
// December 5th, 2010 // Thailand
One of the things that makes for an excellent travel buddy is shared interests and the ability to compromise- which is why my friend Lauren and I had a great itinerary in southeast Asia. Lauren wanted to try a yoga or meditation course. While I am no fan of either- I have a hard time with the relaxation part- I was open to them both for the cultural experience. When we found an overnight meditation retreat in Chiang Mai, offered through Monk Chat, we were both keen.
The cost was only 500 Baht and that included transportation, food, accommodation, and meditation. We also were required to wear all white, so we bought our outfits at the Monk Chat center. We took a tuk-tuk from our guesthouse to the Buddhist temple Wat Suandok where the Monk Chat office is located. After dropping our bags down and signing in we took a survey of the crowd. A Canadian girl who wouldn't stop talking, an Australian business guy who quit his job to travel for a year, an American-British couple, and some other odds and ends. We were herded in to the classroom where we were greeted by two men: the monk that would lead the meditation part of our retreat and another guy who was the organizer/chaperon. After an overview of the basics of meditation and its goals, we piled into the back of a covered pickup truck and headed to the meditation center.
Once there, we were given the 'rules'. No talking. Yeah, right, you shouldn't talk when you meditate. Wait, no talking, period? That's right, it's a silent retreat, so we are not allowed to talk until lunch the following day. Luckily, Lauren and I were roommates. Since we're friends and had spent a couple of months together it was fine, but I can imagine it would be awkward to share a room with someone you didn't know and have to determine when to turn the lights off, etc. Plus, you'd be inclined to have a get-to-know-you chat but couldn't. We got changed, and donning our all-white fashionable getup, we headed to lunch. Here, we had an introduction to chanting. We chanted in foreign words, but roughly translated, it said that we eat only for sustenance and not to enjoy it. Then, we chanted in English "Spreading Loving Kindness to All Living Beings."
After lunch we started meditation. During the course of two days we did sitting, walking, and lying down meditation. I didn't find sitting terribly uncomfortable but found it extremely difficult to stop thinking. The walking was the worst because the monk would chant "Left. Right. Left Right," but the guy in front of me couldn't follow these basic instructions so it was terribly distracting. Lying down was relaxing but I fell asleep both times I tried. One of the techniques I did find useful was how to push past pain. If we started to get uncomfortable, rather than moving to get rid of the pain, we were to chant "Pain, pain pain…" as a way to acknowledge the pain and move beyond it. I used the technique to fight the urge to itch several mosquito bites after the retreat. Overall, I found that focusing and turning off my thoughts was much more difficult than I thought it would be.
On the second day, after morning meditation and breakfast, we had a discussion session where we were finally allowed to talk. Our monk had been a monk for 9 years. That's commitment! As a monk, he's not allowed to eat after 12pm. I can't believe he's been able to do that for 9 years. Everyone asked lots of questions. I asked two: 1.) How long did he plan to be a monk for? and 2.) Why aren't more Buddhists vegetarian if they don't believe in killing any living thing? It was an interesting discussion. As for Lauren and I, we had differing views on the retreat but both enjoyed it. I didn't mind not talking, yet Lauren found it really difficult. However, I found it difficult to meditate and focus my thoughts, while I believe she found it pretty easy. She liked the meditation part, and I just felt it wasn't for me. While I do think I should focus my thoughts and let my mind rest more, essentially thinking about nothing was hard. She didn't feel like the Buddhist aspect was for her, while that was right up my alley. I took a religious studies class a few years back in Hawaii and really came to identify with many Buddhist teachings.
All in all, we both found it to be a great experience and were glad we tried it (and glad that we only had to stay silent overnight as opposed to longer had we signed up for a week-long course). Meditation is a part of Thai and southeast Asian culture, and I think we would have been missing out if we had passed up on this great learning opportunity.

Looks amazing. I think I should try something like that but even in savasana I can't keep my thoughts still always thinking about what I'm going to eat after class!
ayngelina´s last [type] ..The three best hostels in Ecuador
Love this, must go on my list! I'm dying to know the monk's reply to your question about vegetarianism, or not. I remember reading, years ago, a reply to a similar question which went something like we are all part of one another anyway (including animals and plantlife) so when we eat meat it is already a part of us, but we must eat it with gratitude?
islandmomma´s last [type] ..Be Like a Boy Scout – Prepared!
Ah silence :) This looks intriguing and I would love to do it when I make it to Chiang Mai in the a couple of months! Glad you got through it and enjoyed!
I'm always fascinated with people who meditate, hope to learn this soon as i am very stressed.
I've considered a yoga retreat but never a meditation retreat–just like you, I have a hard time focusing my thoughts! I definitely think it would be worth it to try. Thanks for sharing!
Hmm, that does sound really interesting. Though to be honest, I think I am similar to you in that mediation and yoga and all that are not my think. I would do it though, just for the experience. Sounds like you are not regretful that you signed up, so that's encouraging!
I actually ended up at Wat Suandok yesterday for a small ceremony and just found out about their Monk Chat sessions. The monks there were so welcoming and before we knew it, we had been chatting to them for a couple of hours. Glad you were able to participate in the meditation as well!

Really nice post. I also think everyone should try it at least once. Maybe twice. I was rrrrreally tired when we went on the retreat which didn't help.
I know it would be difficult for me to meditate, but I did have a long conversation with monks in Luang Prabang, Laos. I learned a lot from them, perhaps being their discipline what amazed me mos, despite knowing about it already!

Kano Pillars striker Muhammed Gambo will look to redeem himself when the Super Eagles take on Ivory Coast in the first leg African Nations Championship qualifying game in Kaduna on Saturday.
Gambo missed a glorious chance to score in Nigeria's 3-0 defeat by world champions Spain in their Confederations Cup Brazil 2013 clash on June 23.
The 25-year-old came under intense criticism for the miss, with some Eagles' fans querying Stephen Keshi for fielding him in the encounter.
"People have called me up on the phone and stopped me in the streets to criticise me for missing that chance against Spain. I am not happy and I think they should leave me alone," supersport.com quoted Gambo as saying during the week.
"It happens in football. Any player can miss chances. Players like (Lionel) Messi and (Cristiano) Ronaldo have missed even better chances than mine and nothing happened. So these things happen.
"Neither the coach nor my teammates criticised me.
"I have put that incident behind me and have resolved to do my best for my country in subsequent matches."
The player, who joined Kano Pillars in 2006, is hoping for a good performance against the Ivorians to win back his fans.
"I don't know anything about them (Ivory Coast) but I am sure we will beat them on Saturday," he said.
African Nations Championship, which is scheduled to take place in South Africa next year, is exclusively for players plying their trade for clubs in their countries.

Flesh Is Weak
The science and philosophy of putting on/taking off weight
Jun 23, 2014, Vol. 19, No. 39 • By KEVIN R. KOSAR
Reports have surfaced of a professor with a mania for self-examination. His line of inquiry, however, is not of the Socratic philosophical sort. An expert in computer science, he is collecting data on his bodily functions. To improve his diet (and reduce his weight) he tracks what he eats down to the calorie. He straps sensors to his body to measure his caloric burn while exercising. Unsettlingly, it has been reported, the professor "is deep into the biochemistry of his feces . . . [keeping] detailed charts of their microbial contents [and has] been known to haul carefully boxed samples out of his kitchen refrigerator to show incautious visitors."
Bacchus depicted by Peter Paul Rubens (ca. 1640)
It would be easy to wave off this news as nothing more than another sideshow in the human carnival. But after reading The Metamorphoses of Fat, the case of the coprological computer scientist seems less strange. Indeed, instances of eggheads obsessing over their bodily inputs and outputs go way back. Sanctorius, a professor at Padua during 1611-24, erected a "weighing chair" and, for 30 years, used the room-sized contraption to tabulate his weight and attribute the fluctuations to what he consumed and excreted. The research methods may be peculiar, but the topic of study is not idiosyncratic: Who among us has not counted calories or tried a diet (South Beach, Atkins, paleo, etc.) in the hopes of improving one's appearance, elevating one's energy, lengthening one's life? The quest to comprehend the relationship between eating and health is commonplace.
George Vigarello shows, often amusingly, that the Western world has always drawn associations between human constitution and the size and weight of the body. Whether being fat or thin or somewhere in between was desirable has depended on the basis for the judgment. The dearth of real knowledge as to the operations of the body invited conclusions based on a variety of factors.
At the dawn of the second millennium, for example, overweight men were derided as womanly or weak. Thus, William the Conqueror was mocked for being so fat that he looked pregnant. The French King Louis VI ("the Fat") was ridiculed in 1135 for being too portly to mount a horse. Very different conceptions of fitness came to the fore in the 14th and 15th centuries: Europe was a world of "hunger, severe restrictions, and food shortages." Failed harvests, the plague, and other pestilences, as well as crushing poverty, generally contributed to "raising the accumulation of calories into an ideal." Paradise was imagined as a place where "beer and wine flow like rivers [and] stews and roasts seem to pop out of the soil." For men, a big belly was a sign of vitality. Long before Rubens, artists celebrated corpulent women. The 14th-century Parisian's Household Manual (known in English as The Good Wife's Guide) states that both horses and women should have "beautiful loins and big bottoms." The fat woman was the fertile woman; the thin one was imagined to be barren.
The aesthetics of body shape varied widely for the next few centuries. The stout were sometimes considered mighty and at other times sick. The scrawny were never considered powerful and were sometimes thought feeble or diseased. Words were invented to distinguish between desirable and undesirable amounts of fat. The French term rondelet, for example, appeared in the "middle of the 16th century to designate a moderate, entirely 'natural' roundness." Meanwhile, lourd conveys an undesirable thickness and torpor.
Notions of virtue and vice entered the mix. Fatness became associated with greediness. Rolls of heft indicated insatiability, an "infinity of oral desire" that demonstrated moral degradation and slovenliness. Class also became a consideration. Fatness went from being a trait of the wealthy to a characteristic of "fieldworkers and mule drivers." The image of the lower class as obese, ham-fisted brutes became popular by the 17th century: "Beautiful Alison," a sardonic song from 1633, mocks Alison for having "chubby arms like a mustard barrel" and "a stomach [like] a frozen cabbage." Not long after, depictions of potbellied bankers and plutocrats flooded paintings and cartoons.

Conchita Wurst, 'The Bearded Lady,' Wins Eurovision 2014
May 12, 2014 11:28 AM
By Radio.com Staff
Eurovision gave the world something different than the usual reality singing spectacle when Austrian drag act Conchita Wurst was named this year.
The singer, whose controversial act became endearingly known as "the bearded lady," was a crowd favorite in this years competition near the end and edged out former favorite competitors from Sweden and Armenia.
Wurst won with the song "Rise Like a Phoenix," which debuted on the Austrian TV show Dancing Stars back in March. Wurst, whose given name is Tom Neuwirth, created the Conchita Wurst character in 2011 and has endorsed a message of tolerance and acceptance since then.

Today, Redmond-based software giant Microsoft has officially announced the next version of its mobile operating system, in the form of Windows Phone 8.1.
The new platform release has been long rumored to arrive at BUILD 2014, and the platform release is now official, with two new mobile phone makes, namely Micromax and Prestigio.
Microsoft has been teasing the new update for quite a few months, and it appears that it has put a lot of effort into making the new OS version a great platform for its users.
The fact that Joe Belfiore, the head of operating systems at Microsoft, has kicked off BUILD 2014 with Windows Phone 8.1, might be seen as proof of that.
One of the main enhancements that the new OS version will arrive with is an Action center, with will provide users with fast access to various parts of the OS.
There, people will learn more on the battery percentage, will have fast access to customizable quick settings, or see details about the SIM card inside the phone (both of them, if the phone is dual-SIM).
Moreover, Windows Phone 8.1 will also come with App Notifications, something that has been long expected to arrive in the OS. According to Microsoft, developers will receive access to new APIs that will allow them to set their software to show specific notifications in the Action Center.
The new mobile operating system will also arrive with new lock screen features, as well as with APIs that will allow developers to set their apps to take full advantage of them.
According to Microsoft, Windows Phone 8.1 will provide users with a brand new, interactive experience, while applications will be able to take full control of the lock screen via said updated APIs.
The Start Screen has been enhanced too, now with a new set of customization capabilities packed inside, including the option to have more Live Tiles displayed at the same time, or background images, just as previous reports on the matter suggested.
Cortana will be deeply integrated with Bing, while allows it to learn "everything about the world," as Joe Belfiore said on stage at BUILD.
On top of that, Cortana is also capable of learning more about users in time, slowly becoming one of the greatest companions for all those who own a Windows Phone 8.1 handset.
Microsoft also demonstrated some of the features that Cortana comes with, such as the capability to perform searches, to deliver info on what music one likes to listen to, or where they like to eat.
Moreover, Cortana is capable of interacting with third-party apps. It can launch Hulu, Facebook, and more. Users will be able to take advantage of its features either through writing or through using voice to give commands or perform searches.
Microsoft also unveiled that the personal assistant will be able to read emails and read calendar, set appointments, and to inform users on conflicts in calendar. It will also be able to set alarms, to turn the phone to silent when needed, and more.
"Cortana is the only assistant that can set people reminders linked to incoming emails, texts, calls," Microsoft notes. It can also remind users of different things they wrote down to remember.
For the time being, however, Cortana is labeled as beta. It is not a completed product, and Microsoft might not release it in a final version when Windows Phone 8.1 arrives, but it will be completed sooner rather than later.
The Windows Phone Store was enhanced as well, with better recommendations packed inside. Moreover, Microsoft added a Wi-Fi Sense in the OS, so that users could connect to better Wi-Fi hotspots around them.
The word flow keyboard has been greatly improved in Windows Phone 8.1, now being faster and easier to use than the keyboard in Windows Phone 8. It also comes with shape typing, which enables users to type much faster than ever, and which has already allowed the OS to win the world record for fast typing.
Internet Explorer 11 is also included in Windows Phone 8.1, with private browsing, a new reading mode, and other enhancements, which bring it in line with the browser in Windows 8.1.
According to Microsoft, the Windows Phone 8.1 operating system update will start arriving on existing devices in the next few months. The company is still applying the latest touches to it, and is set to work with manufacturers to have it delivered to users as soon as possible.
New devices running under this mobile OS, however, should land on shelves before that. According to Microsoft, they are expected to become official in late April.

Dr. Pina Wong is the best doctor I have encountered. She is caring and very good about explaining in detail and works very hard to make sure you have the best care. I was in the hospital with a very bad infection and after surgery with my obgyn to remove a cyst and left fallopian tube, she worked endlessly to make sure that my home care nurse and meds were dealt with properly. I have never had a doctor who calls and gives you her cell phone number and makes sure you're okay on the weekends or on her days off... the point here is that she worked her butt off just to see that I am okay. She speaks mandrin and cantonese and were great help in speaking with my parents who only understood cantonese. May all our doctors take a lesson from Dr. Pina Wong.

Christopher McBride (saxophone instructor, counselor) is a graduate of NIU, where he majored in jazz studies. He started his musical career with Suzuki lessons at the age of 4; by age 7, he was one of the youngest members of his church choir. The turning point of his musical journey was when he discovered the saxophone at age 10. The son of a Honduran father and an American mother, his household was filled with the diverse musical sounds of gospel, jazz, hip-hop, reggae, soca, dancehall, world, and R&B. His most recent venture is his 2012 debut album Quatuor de Force, which established his ability to front a group and write his own soulful, melodically indelible tunes. Lauded for his ability to play in all musical situations, McBride can unleash a fiery attack and serrated tone, but on this recent album, he explores a more measured, mellow sound heavily influenced by contemporary R&B—with a strong shot of Cannonball Adderley's post-bop sensuality–but his improvising is still rigorous and cogent. He is in great demand as a musician and clinician, and has performed and taught in the U.S. and around the world. Among the greats he has performed with are Billy Preston, Antonio Hart, John Clayton, Jimmy Heath, Bobby Broom, Percy Gray, Roy Hargrove, Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, Guy Sebastian, Jennifer Hudson, 88 Keys and Milton Mustafa. He lives in Brooklyn, New York. Learn more at http://www.crmcbride.com/live/.

How is Martahaus rated on other websites?
Hostelz.com Guest Reviews
Criminals own Martahaus -- Beware They are running a scam. I stayed there a few nights ago and found it to be adequate, quite basic accommodation in an otherwise expensive city, no air conditioning, and the TV did not work, but otherwise fine. However, I booked a single room for 85 SWF a night (excluding tax). I had email confirmation of this, however when I arrived they told me there were no other rooms available and that they would give me a twin share at no extra cost. However when I went to pay the bill at the end of my two nights stay (they already had my credit card) they insisted I paid more for the room (135 SWF) and said "it was my own fault that I decided to stay in the room." After I showed them the email confirmation for the 85 SWF room I had requested, they simply told me this was too bad (there was a really unfriendly woman at reception who also called for a larger man to come an bully me) -- I was forced to pay the extra amount because they already had my credit card. Talking to some other people at Breakfast at the hotel, they told me they were originally promised free Breakfast and that after the first morning in which they ate at Martahaus, they were asked to pay for breakfast. I met another traveler on the train to the airport who also shared a similar story to mine about being asked to pay more for a room he was told was a free upgrade but turned out to be a way for Martahaus to charge him more. You see Zurich has many expensive hotels and not many cheap hostels, so they have market power when forcing you to pay more, because your only alternative is a very expensive hotel or the likely booked out few hostels. I would never stay here again. — AussieTravler55, Australia (2009-07-30)
I stayed here one night in May 2006. It has as good a location as you could possibly ask for, being only a few blocks from the hauptbahnhof and right in the trendy district. I really loved sitting up on their hidden little patio on the roof at night and staring out over Zürich, just follow the stairs all the way to the top. The free internet didn't work and probably never will, so don't count on that. I didn't find the service very friendly, and our room was an hour late when we arrived. My biggest complaint of this place, however, has to be that there was hair on the sheets and pillow case when we did get our room. I asked for a change of sheets, and they said that they'd come by and change them for me while I was gone, which they didn't. That's why you bring 'sleep sheets' I guess. The breakfast was above average. Being that this is a hotel, you have your own room with a key which is good security. Overall, this place was pretty average (by hostel standards), but given that cleanliness of beds is a priority to me, I would try something new if I were to return to Zürich. It also seems to be a very gay-friendly place, if that persuades (or dissuades) you. — Scott from Canada (2006-09-12)
Extremely clean hostel, like all in Switzerland. No kitchen but breakfast is supplied. Not a very social hostel. Very close to the train station and the old part of town. — Chook (2005-11-29)
This place offers good service, free usage of internet, and secure luggage storage for early check-in. It is very near to the train station and old town. It is a bit noisy as it is close to the road. — W K Goh (2004-09-05)
Comfortable and clean. They have nice dorms with private, curtained stalls. I was promised free Internet access, but the computer was broken. It's a little more expensive, but it's in a very good location. — Joe (2004-05-10)
It's a little bit old, but the location is great. It's a three minute walk from the railway station. It's very close to the historical old town area. The staff are friendly and helpful. By the way, internet access is free. — Mr Objective (2003-12-31)

by Alex Kelly, Oberlin College '13
For an Art History major at a liberal arts college, graduation day approaches like a threatening deadline – representing the moment we must cast aside the comfort of textbooks and research papers and enter "The Real World" It is in this the moment we must confront the question that we have been avoiding since declaring our major: "what are you going to do with that?" Can one write papers for a living? For many of us, that's our most marketable skill.
Fortunately, Oberlin College gives its students the opportunity to dip their toes into The Real World each January for a Winter Term. We have one month to get an internship, take a class, or undertake a project of our choice. This January, I applied for a curatorial internship at the Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation. An artist's foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to the work of a single artist. This type of organization is a fairly recent phenomenon, and most artist's foundations are committed to contemporary artists. For example, The Calder Foundation, The Willem de Kooning Foundation and the Judd Foundation are all artists' foundations based in New York City. Artist's foundations are not necessarily museum spaces, and no two organizations operate in exactly the same way.
The Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation is singular in that it operates out of the former home and studio space of Chaim Gross, and maintains not only a permanent collection of Gross's work, but also his outstanding personal collection of African, Oceanic, Pre-Columbian European and American art. The townhouse in which the Foundation is located is at once a library, an office and a gallery space. Working at the Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation means that not only do you work with art objects, but you live with them. Each morning I would walk past a gallery dedicated to the sculptures of Chaim Gross, eat lunch with Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec drawings while being watched by rows of African masks, and typing under the eyes of a Fernand Léger.
Working at the Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation for a month provided me with the opportunity to develop an understanding of how an Arts not-for-profit organization operates, while learning and developing skills that an Art History major can apply to working in The Real World. I greatly appreciate that the Foundation is a small organization with big ideas. As an intern I was able to wear a variety of hats, so to speak; I met each employee and learned about their current project. The Foundation is currently undergoing the enormous task of compiling a catalogue raisonné of Chaim's work. At the same time, they maintain a permanent exhibition of Chaim's sculptures on the first floor of the town house, and are installing a second show featuring Chaim's Asante goldweights from his collection of African art.
Working with the Foundation's coming exhibition, Life in Miniature: Asante Goldweights and Sculpture, curated by Kristen Windmuller, a PhD student in African Art at Princeton University, was an amazing opportunity to observe the behind-the-scenes of an art exhibition. It was fascinating to watch Ms. Windmuller collaborate with the staff of the Foundation in order to actualize her concept. By observing and participating in this process I was able to appreciate the value of The Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation as an alternative to a museum space for the exhibition and display of art objects. Collaboration and innovation are required when working with a limited display space and a seemingly limitless collection of objects. Ms. Windmuller and The Foundation's staff creatively utilized the Foundation's resources in order to include a variety of media as well as interactive materials, resulting in an exhibition that is both educational and aesthetic.
My internship at the Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation has been a unique and invaluable experience. It has shown me that working in an artist's foundation is a dynamic way to apply my Art History degree. Also, because of the new and intriguing challenges presented by this emerging type of Arts organization, working for an artist's foundation would require a constant expansion of my arts education. I am grateful to The Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation for providing me with an enjoyable and informative encounter with The Real World.

Double suicide suspected after couple found dead at Oak Park apartment
Two people were found dead this afternoon in an Oak Park apartment.
Ventura County Senior Deputy Sheriff Michelle Kristol said indications are that the married couple, a man and a woman in their 60s, died in a double suicide. She said there were no obvious signs of gunshot wounds or violence and that all the evidence at the scene was consistent with a suicide.
Kristol said coroner's officials did not want further information released until after the autopsy, which is expected Thursday.
Ventura County sheriff's investigators and coroner's office staff were on the scene this afternoon at the Country Oaks apartment complex on Hickory Drive.
Authorities said they were alerted to the deaths after someone called saying the man had failed to show up to work and could not be reached by phone. Firefighters went to the complex and found the couple dead just after noon, Kristol said.
The man was last seen at work Tuesday, Kristol said.
She said the couple lived alone.
At the scene, several people were watching officials, and crime scene tape was present. One woman was in tears.
There appeared to be at least a couple hundred units in the apartment complex, which is on a quiet, tree-lined street and is across Kanan Road from Oak Park High School. The two-story buildings appeared to have garages on the ground level and living space on the top level.
The couple's identity was not released. However, The Star's policy is to not identify people who commit suicide, although there are exceptions if it occurs in a public place.

MIAMISBURG - If Indian Hill has ever sent a girl to the state golf tournament, it's news to coach Cynthia Annett and athletic director Jill Bruder.
Junior Pari Keller most likely became on Wednesday the first Braves girl to reach the state golf tournament when she finished third among qualifying individuals in the Division II district tournament at Pipestone Golf Course.
"I am not aware of Indian Hill having an individual qualifier for the state tournament in girls golf," Bruder said in an e-mail. "The tournament split into two divisions in 2008. Getting to the state finals then or now takes a ...
