Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom (Italian: Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma), titled Pasolini's 120 Days of Sodom on English-language prints[2] and commonly referred to as simply Salò (Italian: [saˈlɔ]), is a 1975 Italian-French horror art film directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. It is based on the book The 120 Days of Sodom by the Marquis de Sade. The film focuses on four wealthy, corrupt Italian libertines, during the time of the fascist Republic of Salò (1943–1945). The libertines kidnap eighteen teenagers and subject them to four months of extreme violence, sadism, and sexual and mental torture. The film explores the themes of political corruption, abuse of power, sadism, perversion, sexuality and fascism. The story is in four segments, inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy: the Anteinferno, the Circle of Manias, the Circle of Shit and the Circle of Blood. The film also contains frequent references to and several discussions of Friedrich Nietzsche's 1887 book On the Genealogy of Morality, Ezra Pound's poem The Cantos, and Marcel Proust's novel sequence In Search of Lost Time.
It was Pasolini's last film; he was murdered shortly before it was released. Because it depicts youths subjected to intensely graphic violence, relentless sadism, sexual deviance, and brutal murder, the film was extremely controversial upon its release, and remains banned in several countries. For instance, it was only in the year 2000 that it was granted an uncut release in the UK. It has been praised by various film historians and critics and was named the 65th scariest film ever made by the Chicago Film Critics Association in 2006[3] and is the subject of an entry in The Penguin Encyclopedia of Horror and the Supernatural (1986).[4]

In 1944 in the Republic of Salò, the Fascist-occupied portion of Italy, four wealthy men of power, the Duke, the Bishop, the Magistrate and the President, agree to marry each other's daughters as the first step in a debauched ritual. They recruit four teenage boys to act as guards (dressed with uniforms of Decima Flottiglia MAS) and four young soldiers (called "studs", "cockmongers" or "fuckers"), who are chosen because of their big penises. They then kidnap nine young men and nine young women and take them to a palace near Marzabotto. Accompanying them are four middle-aged prostitutes, also collaborators, who recount arousing stories for the men, who sadistically exploit their victims.
During the many days at the palace, the four men devise increasingly abhorrent tortures and humiliations for their own pleasure. During breakfast, the daughters enter the dining hall naked to serve food. One of the studs trips and rapes a daughter in front of the crowd, which laughs at her cries of pain. Intrigued, the President moons several slaves before prompting the stud to perform anal sex on him and the Duke sings 'Sul Ponte di perati' and everybody sings also. A girl who tries to escape is slain and a middle-aged prostitute continues with her story. Two victims are forced to marry. The ceremony is interrupted when the Duke fondles several victims and prostitutes. At the end, the bride and groom are forced to fondle each other and the men rape them to stop them from having sex with each other. During this, the Magistrate engages with the Duke in three-way intercourse.
Another day, the victims are forced to act like dogs. When one of the victims, Lamberto, refuses, the Magistrate whips him and tortures the President's daughter by tricking her into eating food containing nails. Non-penetrative sex gives way to coprophagia. As Signora Maggi tells her story, the President notices that one of the studs has an erection and fondles him. Another stud uses a female victim's hand to masturbate himself. Signora Maggi relates how she killed her mother, and Renata cries, remembering the murder of her own mother. The Duke, sexually excited at the sound of her cries, begins verbally abusing her. The Duke orders the guards and studs to undress her. During this, she begs God for death, and the Duke punishes her by defecating and forcing her to eat his feces. The President leaves to masturbate. Later, the other victims are presented with a meal of human feces. During a search for the victim with the most beautiful buttocks, Franco is picked and promised death in the future.
Later, there is a black mass-like wedding between the studs and the men of power. The men angrily order the children to laugh, but they are too grief-stricken to do so. The Pianist and Signora Vaccari tell jokes to make the victims laugh. The wedding ceremony ensues with each man of power exchanging rings with a stud. After the wedding, the Bishop is sodomized by his stud. The Bishop then leaves to examine the captives in their rooms, where they start systematically betraying each other: Claudio reveals that Graziella is hiding a photograph, Graziella reveals that Eva and Antiniska are having a secret sexual affair, and Ezio, a collaborator and the black servant are shot dead after being found having sex, but not before Ezio makes a defiant socialist salute. Victim Umberto Chessari is appointed to replace Ezio. Toward the end, the remaining victims are called out to determine which of them will be punished. Graziella is spared due to her betrayal of Eva, and Rino is spared due to his submissive relationship with the Duke. Those who are called are given a blue ribbon and sentenced to a painful death. The victims huddle together and cry and pray in the bathroom. They are then tortured and murdered through methods such as branding, hanging, scalping, burning, and having their tongues and eyes cut out, as each libertine takes his turn to watch as voyeur. The soldiers shake hands and bid farewell, and the Pianist commits suicide due to her grief.
The film's final shot is of two young soldiers, who had witnessed and collaborated in all the atrocities, dancing a simple waltz together.

Salò transposes the setting of the Marquis de Sade's book from 18th-century France to the last days of Benito Mussolini's regime in the Republic of Salò. Salò is a toponymical metonymy for the Italian Social Republic (RSI) (because Mussolini ruled from this northern town rather than from Rome), which was a puppet state of Nazi Germany.
In the film almost no background is given on the tortured subjects and for the most part they almost never speak.[5]
Trilogy of Death
In contrast to his "Trilogy of Life" (Il Decameron, I racconti di Canterbury and Il fiore delle Mille e una notte), Pasolini initially planned "The 120 days of Sodom" and "Salò" as separate stories but noting similarity between both concepts and based on their experiences in the Republic of Salò conceived the idea of "Salò or the 120 days of Sodom". Pasolini established that the violence scenes in Salò were symbolic and reducing the romanticism of his previous films although knowing that once the film was premiered would be considered as damn.
During the creation of the first drafts of the script, Pasolini appealed to several of his usual collaborators, among them Sergio Citti, Claudio Masenza, Antonio Troisi and specially Pupi Avati.[6] As a continuation, Pasolini planned to bring to the cinema the life of the murderer and pederast Gilles de Rais, but after his death, the idea was aborted.
Initially Ninetto Davoli was chosen to play Claudio, a young collaborationist but due to legal problems he had to decline the role being replaced by Claudio Troccoli, a young man who had a similarity to Davoli in his first films. Pupi Avati, being the writer is not officially accredited due also by legal problems. Most of the actors of the cast although they were natural actors, many of them models that did not have modesty to show their naked bodies and most of them retaining their original name. Franco Merli was considered like a prototype of pasolinian boy. Ezio Manni remembers during filming: "The same with Franco Merli, the boy chosen for the seat more beautiful. When to reward the link the gun to his head, he had a rebellious snap, could not withstand that gesture. Then, there, too, he came the assistant director and if it is embraced.[7]
Franco Citti was going to play one of the soldiers studs but he did not appear. Laura Betti was also going to play Signora Vaccari but also because of legal problems and her commitments to the movie "Novecento" declined the role even though she doubled the voice of Hélène Surgère .
Umberto Paolo Quintavalle (the Magistrate) was a writer, he knew Pasolini working on the newspaper Corriere della Sera. He was chosen for the role because he had all "the characteristics of a decadent intellectual".[8][9]
Aldo Valletti (the President) was a friend of Pasolini from the time of ¨Accattone¨. Giorgio Cataldi (the bishop) another friend of Pasolini, a clothes seller in Rome.
Paolo Bonacelli (El Duque) had participated in several small Italian productions of the 1950s and 1960s.
Several outdoor scenes were filmed in Villa Aldini.[10] a neoclassical building on the hills of Bologna. The interiors are been shot in Villa Sorra near Castelfranco Emilia.[11] The noble hall of the building and the courtyard were filmed in the Cinecittà studios. The town on the Reno replaces the fictional location in Marzabotto.
The shooting, carried out mainly in the sixteenth century Villa Gonzaga-Zani in Villimpenta in the spring of 1975 were difficult; not so much at the technical level (the cinematographer was Tonino Delli Colli) but because the scenes of homophilia, coprophagia and sadomasochism required a patience that only savoir faire and charisma of Pasolini made it acceptable. The courtyard of the sequence, then, in which torture culminate, caused abrasions and burns on some bodies (naked) of the actors.[citation needed]
However, interruptions of work were often playful, with long tables in the meals - preferably made of risotto - and a football game was played against the crew of Bernardo Bertolucci's Novecento, which ran nearby.[citation needed] It also marked the reconciliation between the then young director (34 years old at the time) and his master (53 year old) after several disagreements followed criticism that the latter had reserved for Last Tango in Paris (1972), without defending it from drastic censorship measures.[citation needed]
The original music corresponds to Ennio Morricone interpreted at the piano by Arnaldo Graziosi. Other non-original music was Carl Orff's Carmina Burana in Veris leta facies at the nearly end of the film during Circle of blood. Other music was several Frédéric Chopin's pieces Preludes Op.28 nº 20 and nº4 and Valses Op. 34 nº 2 in La minor).
Stolen film coils
During the making of the film, some reels were stolen, and the thieves demanded a ransom for their return. They reshot the scenes, using doubles: the same scenes, but from a different angle. At the trial for Pasolini's murder, it was hypothesized that Pasolini was told the film reels were discovered in Ostia lido. He was led there by Pelosi, the accused, and fell victim to an ambush, where he died.[12]
Salò has been banned in several countries, because of its graphic portrayals of rape, torture, and murder—mainly of people thought to be younger than eighteen years of age. The film remains banned in several countries to this day.
The film was rejected by the British Board of Film Censors (BBFC) in January 1976. It was first screened at the Old Compton Street cinema club in Soho, London in 1977, in an uncut form and without certification from BBFC secretary James Ferman; the premises were raided by the Metropolitan Police after a few days. A cut version prepared under Ferman's supervision, again without formal certification, was subsequently screened under cinema club conditions for some years. In 2000, in an uncut form, the film was finally passed for theatrical and video distribution in the United Kingdom.[13]
In 1994, an undercover policeman in Cincinnati, Ohio, rented the film from a local gay bookstore, and then arrested the owners for "pandering". A large group of artists, including Martin Scorsese and Alec Baldwin, and scholars signed a legal brief arguing the film's artistic merit; the Ohio state court dismissed the case because the police violated the owners' Fourth Amendment rights, without reaching the question of whether the film was obscene.[14]
It was banned in Australia in 1976 for reasons of indecency. After a 17-year-long ban, the Australian Classification Board passed the film with a R-18+ (for 18 and older only) uncut for theatrical release in July 1993. However, the Australian Classification Review Board overturned this decision in February 1998 and banned the film outright, for "offensive cruelty with high impact, sexual violence and depictions of offensive and revolting fetishes". The film was then pulled from all Australian cinemas. Salò was resubmitted for classification in Australia in 2008, only to be rejected once again.[15] The DVD print was apparently a modified version, causing outrage in the media over censorship and freedom of speech. In 2010, the film was submitted again, and passed with an R18+ rating. According to the Australian Classification Board media release, the DVD was passed due to "the inclusion of 176 minutes of additional material which provided a context to the feature film." The media release also stated that "The Classification Board wishes to emphasise that this film is classified R18+ based on the fact that it contains additional material. Screening this film in a cinema without the additional material would constitute a breach of classification laws."[16] The majority opinion of the board stated that the inclusion of additional material on the DVD "facilitates wider consideration of the context of the film which results in the impact being no more than high."[17] This decision came under attack by FamilyVoice Australia (formerly the Festival of Light Australia), the Australian Christian Lobby and Liberal Party of Australia Senator Julian McGauran,[18] who tried to have the ban reinstated, but the Board refused, stating "The film has aged plus there is bonus material that clearly shows it is fiction."[19][20] The film was released on Blu-ray Disc and DVD on 8 September 2010.[21][22]
In New Zealand, the film was originally banned in 1976. The ban was upheld in 1993. In 1997, special permission was granted for the film to be screened uncut at a film festival. In 2001, the DVD was finally passed uncut with an 'R18' rating.[23]
Documentaries about the film
|This section does not cite any sources. (January 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
The film is also the subject of the 2001 documentary Salò: Fade to Black written by Mark Kermode and directed by Nigel Algar. An exhibition of photographs by Fabian Cevallos depicting scenes which were edited out of the film was displayed in 2005 in Rome. Italian filmmaker Giuseppe Bertolucci released a documentary in 2006, Pasolini prossimo nostro, based on an interview with Pasolini done on the set of Salò in 1975. The documentary also included photographs taken on the set of the film.
Home video
The Criterion Collection first released the film in 1993 on LaserDisc, following with a DVD release in 1998.[24] In 2011 The Criterion Collection released a newly restored version on Blu-ray and DVD.[25]
Critical reception
The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports that 71% of 28 surveyed critics gave the film a positive review; the average rating is 6.4/10.[26] Director Michael Haneke named the film his fourth favorite film when he voted for the 2002 Sight and Sound poll; director Catherine Breillat and film critic Joel David also voted for the film.[27] David Cross and Gaspar Noé named it one of their favorite films.[28][29] Rainer Werner Fassbinder also cited it as one of his 10 favorite movies.[30] A 2000 poll of critics conducted by The Village Voice named it the 89th greatest film of the 20th century.[31] In 2006, the Chicago Film Critics Association named Salò the 65th scariest film ever made.[3] In 2010, the Toronto International Film Festival placed it at No. 47 on its list of The Essential 100 films.[32] Director John Waters said, "Salo is a beautiful film...it uses obscenity in an intelligent way...and it's about the pornography of power."[33]
TV Guide gave the film a mixed review awarding it a score of 2.5/4, stating, "despite moments of undeniably brilliant insight, is nearly unwatchable, extremely disturbing, and often literally nauseous".[34]
The film's reputation for pushing boundaries has led some critics to criticize or avoid it. Vincent Canby of The New York Times wrote, "Salo is, I think, a perfect example of the kind of material that, theoretically, anyway, can be acceptable on paper but becomes so repugnant when visualized on the screen that it further dehumanizes the human spirit, which is supposed to be the artist's concern."[35] In 2011 Roger Ebert wrote that he owned the film since its release on Laserdisc but had not watched it, citing the film's transgressive reputation.[36] In 2011, David Haglund of Slate surveyed five film critics, and three of them said that it was required viewing for any serious critic or cinephile. Haglund concluded that he still would not watch the film.[37]
Alternative endings
It seems that Pasolini was undecided on what type of conclusion the film should have, to the point of having conceived and shot four different endings: the first was a shot of a red flag in the wind with the words "Love You," but it was abandoned by the director because he thought it "too pompous" and "prone to the ethics of psychedelic youth" which he detested.[38] The second showed all the actors in the film, other than the four gentlemen, the director and his troupe perform a wild dance in a room of the villa furnished with red flags, and the scene was filmed with the purpose of using it as a background during the credits, but was discarded because it appeared, in the eyes of Pasolini, chaotic and unsatisfactory.[38] Another final scene, discovered recently and which was only in the initial draft of the script, showed, after the torture's end, the four gentlemen walk out of the house and drawing conclusions about the morality of the whole affair.[39] Finally, keeping the idea of dance as the summation of carnage Pasolini chose to mount the so-called final "Margherita", with the two young soldiers dancing.[38]
In 2008, British opera director David McVicar and Swiss conductor Philippe Jordan have produced a performance of Richard Strauss' 1905 opera Salome based on the film, setting it in a debauched palace in Nazi Germany, for the Royal Opera House in London, with Nadja Michael as Salome, Michaela Schuster as Herodias, Thomas Moser as Herod, Joseph Kaiser as Narraboth, and Michael Volle as Jokanaan. This performance was recorded by Jonathan Haswell and later that year was released on DVD by Opus Arte.[40]
Nikos Nikolaidis' 2005 The Zero Years has been compared to the film.[41]
Several images from Madonna's controversial 1992 photo book Sex are inspired by the film.[citation needed]
The music video for the Cradle of Filth song "Babalon A.D." is also based on Salò.[citation needed]

Cartoon of the Day: The Tell-Tale Heart
Today's CotD is one from the dark side- an animated retelling of Edgar Allen Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart. Produced by UPA Productions and released in 1953, this short was nominated for an Academy Award.
A dark adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's short story about a man who is haunted by the beating heart of the man whom he has murdered.
This film was originally to have been released in 3-D, but was never produced as such.
This was the first cartoon to be X-rated (adults only) in Great Britain under the British Board of Film Censors classification system; the first British cartoon to be so rated was "A Short Vision."
In 2001, the United States Library of Congress deemed the film "culturally significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.

How would you interpret a kiss on the cheek? A guy told me he never initiates it with a girl, she has to do it.
I don't think I have the ovaries for that but I figure I can muster a kiss on the cheek after a few glasses, especially after he says something nice. I usually only kiss on the cheek when I greet someone.
Most Helpful Guy
It depends on what you do after you kiss his cheek. If you kiss him and then just turn away, that's just going to confuse the hell out of him. If you want it to send a signal, then you do it, look him in the eyes and stay as close to him as your situation might allow and hope that either he kisses you or he opens himself for you to actually kiss him32|10|0
Ooo, that's good advice actually. I'd love to be able to be all smooth and keep my lips near him so he can turn into me and kiss back more fully, but I don't think I have it in me ;) I can just imagine myself chickening out and pulling away from him after the peck like I've been burned.
- Show AllShow Less
Aw man, that's bullsh*t. I'm sorry it turned out so badly; and here I was hoping such a sweet gesture would come from sweet people.
Sweet is sometimes only a precursor to the sour

The Council comprise the Chair and up to eleven other members, up to half of the membership shall be practising members of the accounting profession. Members of the Councils are appointed through an open process overseen by the Codes and Standards Committee (CSC) subject to the overall guidance of the Nominations Committee of the FRC.
The Financial Reporting Council assumed responsibility for accounting standards on 2 July 2012. Accounting standards that were formerly developed by the Accounting Standards Board are contained in 'Financial Reporting Standards' (FRSs). Soon after it started its activities, the Corporate Reporting Council adopted the standards issued by the ASB, so that they also fall within the legal definition of accounting standards. These are designated 'Statements of Standard Accounting Practice' (SSAPs). Whilst some of the SSAPs have been superseded by FRSs, some remain in force.
Accounting standards apply to all companies, and other entities that prepare accounts that are intended to provide a true and fair view. The Foreword to Accounting Standards explains the authority, scope and application of accounting standards.

Knoxville police are investigating a hit-and-run that sent two people to the hospital.
It happened before 1 o'clock Thursday morning on Northshore Drive in West Knoxville. Police found the victims in the road in front of the Tin Roof bar. They say the two were walking across the street when someone ran them over and kept going.
Alice Jablonski of Tampa, Florida is one of the victims. She was visiting relatives for the holiday and decided to go out with a group of relatives and friends.
"[The driver] just smacked me and my friend and [the driver] hit us both and we both just flew up in the air. I landed in the middle of the road on the pavement and he landed on the opposite of the road," she said.
Police say the second victim of the hit-and-run is Garrett Jernigan of Knoxville.
Jablonski said Jernigan has a shattered orbital bone and will need surgery, as well as 30 stitches in his head and face.
Emergency crews transported the victims to UT Medical Center with non life-threatening injuries.
The vehicle is described as a gray or light blue Jaguar sports vehicle. Police say the impact may have damaged the suspect's windshield and the front end of the vehicle.
Jablonski has this message to the driver: "I would ask you to turn yourself in and to own up to what you did and to realize that we're all humans and you can't hit people in the road and leave. It's not how we treat each other and not on Thanksgiving. Not at all."
Anyone with information is asked to call police at (865) 215-7212. Callers can remain anonymous.

Ian Eagle, Brooklyn Nets Play-by-Play Announcer
Emmy Award-winner Ian Eagle is in his 23rd year as play-by-play announcer for Brooklyn Nets, the last 22 on television and the last 13 on the YES Network, specifically. One of the most respected and versatile sportscasters in the country, Eagle became the radio voice of the Nets in 1994 at the age of 25, and moved to the television side the following year. He won individual New York Emmys in 2013 and 2016 for his Nets play-by-play work on YES, and won another Emmy in 2014 as part of YES' Nets broadcasting team which won for Best Live Sports Series.
Eagle was also nominated for a National Sports Emmy in 2015 for his NFL and NCAA March Madness play-by-play work for CBS Sports and Turner Sports.
The YES Network, the most-watched regional sports network in the country 12 of the last 13 years, is the exclusive local television home of the 27-time World Champion New York Yankees, the Brooklyn Nets, and MLS' New York City FC. The network has won 95 New York Emmy Awards since its 2002 launch.
Eagle received Emmy nominations for his Nets play-by-play work on YES in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016. Earlier, he won New York Emmys for his work on Madison Square Garden Network's telecast of the Pacers/Nets Game 5 of the 2002 NBA playoffs. In 2014 Eagle won the CableFax Program Award for the best host of regional television program (sports or otherwise).
A 1990 graduate of Syracuse University, Eagle was the play-by-play voice of the Orangemen in football, basketball and lacrosse, and was awarded the Bob Costas Award for Outstanding Sportscasting. In August 2013, he was inducted into the WAER-FM (Syracuse University) Hall of Fame.
Eagle was named New York State Sportscaster of the Year by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association in both 2015 (sharing with WNBC-TV's Bruce Beck) and 2014.
"Bird" joined WFAN as a producer in 1990 and debuted as host of his own show in 1992. The following year, Eagle began hosting pre-game and post-game shows for Jets football on WFAN and was named the Jets radio play-by-play voice for the 1997 campaign. He has been one of the play-by-play voices for the NFL on CBS since 1998, and handles play-by-play for Westwood One Radio's Thursday Night NFL coverage and its NCAA Tournament Regional Finals coverage.
In addition to football, Eagle has called the NCAA Tournament for CBS (and later Turner, as well) for the past 18 years, the Army/Navy football game, boxing, and anchored the "Sportsdesk" and "At the Half" at CBS Sports. Eagle also handled English-language play-by-play for the international telecasts of the NBA Finals in 1995-98, and has worked the Masters and PGA Championships for CBS/Direct TV.
Eagle has broadcast the NBA Playoffs for TNT since 2010 and broadcast the NBA Playoffs for NBA-TV from 2003-2008. He and his YES Nets colleague Jim Spanarkel also worked the world feed of the 2013 NBA Finals. Eagle has also handled play-by-play for the NCAA Track and Field Championships on CBS, and the French Open for Tennis Channel. He has covered the last 10 US Opens for CBS and was the voice for the Sony PSP 2010 NBA video game with Kenny Smith. From 2005-2008, Eagle hosted a variety of shows on SIRIUS Satellite Radio, including "Full Court Press" and 'The Phil Jackson Show."
Eagle had a role in the 2015 movie Southpaw starting Jake Gyllenhaal and Rachel McAdams, and he was a contributor to CBS Sports' coverage of Super Bowl 50 on the network's pre-and post-game shows.
In 2013, he began hosting the Stars on Sports show on CBS, on which he interviews entertainers about sports. Among those he has interviewed are Denzel Washington, Mark Wahlberg, LL Cool J and Ron Howard.
For the past 15 summers, Eagle and fellow sportscaster Bruce Beck have hosted a sports broadcasting camp for children. Eagle resides in New Jersey with his wife Alisa and two children.

The drama from veteran Greek director Pantelis Voulgaris won three Golden Goblet awards on Sunday, June 22.
The Gong Li-led jury of 17th Shanghai Film Festival awarded Greek film "Little England" the top prize and two other nods. Winning the coveted Golden Goblet Best Film prize, the period drama also won through its lead star Pinelopi Tsilika and director Pantelis Voulgaris.
Based on Ioanna Karistiani's 1997 bestseller novel "The Jasmine Isle", "Little England" is a family saga spanning two decades in the lives of two sisters, united and divided by a terrible secret - their love for the same man. "The feelings portrayed in the film - love, separation, loneliness - are timeless. All these emotions have always been a part of the world of cinema," Voulgaris said.
The awards were handed out during a red carpet ceremony on Sunday, June 22 at the Shanghai Grand Theater. The jury also awarded Jury Prize to "The Uncle Victory" which became controversial after its lead actor Huang Haibo was convicted for having sex with prostitute. The Chinese film was not shown to the public but was privately screened for the jury.
Haibo was tipped to be a favorite to win the best acting prize but it eventually went to Thailand actor Vithaya Pansringarm from "The Last Executioner".
Full winners list of Golden Goblets Awards this year:
- Best Film: "Little England" ("Mikra Anglia")
- Best Director: Pantelis Voulgaris for "Little England" ("Mikra Anglia")
- Best Artistic Contribution: Gregg Alexander, composer, "Begin Again"
- Best cinematography: Luo Pan for "Sacred Arrow"
- Best Screenplay: "Diplomacy" by Volker Schloendorff, Cyril Gely
- Jury Prize: "The Uncle Victory"
- Best Actress: Pinelopi Tsilika in "Little England" ("Mikra Anglia")
- Best Actor: Vithaya Pansringarm in "The Last Executioner"

In config/environment.rb there is a line (remarked out):
# ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'production'
and I would assume making that line active is the way to switch from development mode to production mode.But the comment above the line states:
# Uncomment below to force Rails into production mode when
# you don't control web/app server and can't set it the proper way
I have complete control over the server. It is physically in my lap!So the real question becomes; what is the proper way to switch to production mode?How do I handle the migration and databases?When I uncommented that line I was unable to use 'rake db' tasks because rails still referenced the development database.
Can someone give me some guidance on how to take a completed app [running in development mode] into production?
Your production server is in your lap? I think what is meant by production server is an online (remote) hosted server, not a lap-top.
I must admit, I'm cheating here a little. This advice is from Deploying Rails Applications by Ezra Zygmuntowicz (Pragmatic Programmers, 2008) pp54-55.
According to the book there are three ways to set the RAILS_ENV variable for your application.
Open up the ~/.bashrc file
export RAILS_ENV="production"
Or you could set the environment in your web server config file, perhaps using a local .htaccess file on Apache.
Or you could edit environment.rb, commenting out the line you mentioned:[INDENT]
ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'production'
I hope that helps.
Depends on what web server you're using. If you're using the apache/fastCGI combination then you'd try something like this:
FastCgiConfig -maxClassProcesses 20 -maxProcesses 20 -minProcesses 1 -processSlack 1 -initial-env RAILS_ENV=production -idle-timeout 120
IIRC, Mongrel needs something like "-e production" on it's startup line.
To set up a production database you must do three things.
Say you are using MySQL:1. login to mysql on your production server and create your production database.Create a user for the database and give him all the privileges.
enter the database details in database.yml for the production database.
run the migrations for the production database by forcing the ENV
$ rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
I think that should set you up.
Excellent!The combination of answers from Pootsy was the ticket!I did not know about the rake 'RAILS_ENV' parameter: cool!
Thanks, Arlen. I am running fastCGI. I will try that.
Yes, Mittineague, I am using a laptop.This is a very small, internal, proof-of-concept application that will be moved to a corporate server very soon.The laptop gives me a great opportunity to 'work on the road' with the proprietary application. But you were very perceptive to catch that.
You can also explicitly start up your app locally in production mode using:
script/server production

Choosing mastectomy or not: Studying young women's surgical choices
Jeff's targeted therapy has kept his advanced lung cancer at bay.
What type of cancer has plummeted in African-Americans, increased in whites, and, in only two generations, has become the fastest-rising cancer in the United States?
Few people would guess it is cancer of the esophagus – the foot-long, muscular tube that channels food from the mouth to the stomach. The disease is relatively rare, and low in the public's awareness, but it is often deadly, and its incidence is rising at the rate of 1 percent a year.
"It has not been a glamorous disease getting a lot of research dollars, because traditionally it affects people with less socioeconomic power and has had a grim outlook," says Peter Enzinger, MD, clinical director of the Gastrointestinal Oncology Center, who sees about 80 percent of the 120 new esophageal cases a year at Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Cancer Center (DF/BWCC).
Esophageal cancer has undergone a rapid evolution in the past 40 years, and the changes continue. Previously it was a disease found largely among the poor and disproportionately in African-Americans, and was linked to a lifestyle of heavy smoking and drinking. Survival rates were extremely low.
Today, incidence among African-Americans has dipped dramatically, while it has risen steadily in white males. The role of smoking and drinking is much smaller.
Now, the most important risk factors are obesity and the presence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) – irritation of the lower esophagus by acid stomach contents flowing backwards.
Even the biology of the tumors has turned upside down.
"When I started my training, almost all the esophageal cancer we saw was squamous cell carcinoma," observes Charles Fuchs, MD, director of DF/BWCC's gastrointestinal oncology disease center.
"Now we see very little of it – it's becoming a rare disease. At the same time, there's been an extraordinary rise in adenocarcinomas of the esophagus." In fact, deaths from this type of esophageal cancer rose from 2.5 to 20 per million between 1975 and 2005, according to a Dartmouth Medical School report.
But with steady gains in surgical techniques and post-surgical care, and more effective chemotherapy and radiation, "over the past 20 to 30 years, there has been a statistically significant improvement in survival for this disease," Enzinger says.
Both the old attitudes and the new trends are reflected in an episode of esophageal cancer that began for Irena Cade, of Amherst, Mass., in 2004, when she was 64.
Cade, a retired Hampshire College employee, was diagnosed some six months after she first went to see her doctor because of persistent trouble and pain in swallowing. The physician initially treated her for reflux disease with acid-blocking drugs, then antibiotics, but her symptoms didn't improve, and she continued to lose weight.
Finally an endoscopy – an examination of the inside of the esophagus with a thin, lighted tube – revealed the tumor.
The news left her stunned. "I started putting my things in order," she says. "I was sure I was going to die."
Her local doctor didn't hold out much hope, either. Apart from experienced teams of gastrointestinal cancer specialists at centers like DF/BWCC, many physicians don't realize that an esophageal cancer diagnosis is not a death sentence.
Even the most up-to-date treatments can be rough on patients, "but I had total trust in my doctors," says Cade, who was cared for at DF/BWCC with a team led by Enzinger.
Five years after surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, Cade says, "I feel perfectly normal, and Dr. Enzinger says the cancer isn't likely to recur."
Cancer of the esophagus is a stealthy disease with few symptoms in its earliest, most curable stages. When symptoms do appear – those experienced by Cade are textbook warning signs – they may be initially ignored or deemed unlikely to be caused by cancer.
By then, the tumor will often have penetrated deep into the wall of the esophagus and in some cases will have spread to the network of bean-sized lymph nodes in the chest and neck, from where it is prone to start metastasizing to other organs.
As the link with acid reflux disease has become clearer, patients with severe, longstanding reflux symptoms are increasingly advised to have an endoscopy. However, most people with acid reflux won't develop esophageal cancer, and routine endoscopies aren't considered cost-effective because the disease is so uncommon.
Occasionally, an esophageal tumor may be discovered during follow-up of a patient with another type of cancer.
For example, J. Banks Hyde, a Washington, D.C., businessman who was diagnosed and treated for tongue cancer in 2007, had a routine scan in January 2009 that he says "lit up" where a tumor had developed in his esophagus.
Banks was successfully treated by surgeon Scott Swanson, MD, at Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Cancer Center (DF/BWCC).
He says that, in a sense, his bout with tongue cancer "saved my life, because it led to finding the cancer in my esophagus."
When worsening symptoms bring a patient to the doctor's office, the first diagnostic test is an X-ray, conducted while the patient swallows a barium contrast solution which can detect even small, early cancers in the esophagus. Additional tests are carried out with endoscopy, ultrasound, and CT scans to further pinpoint the tumor and determine whether cancer cells have spread to the lymph nodes and nearby organs.
Treatment of esophageal cancer is a highly interdisciplinary effort involving surgeons, radiation experts, and chemotherapy specialists working in close consultation, says Harvey Mamon, MD, PhD, clinical director of Radiation Oncology at DF/BWCC.
"If there is minimal invasion of the tumor into the esophageal wall, and no lymph nodes are involved, the patient may go straight to surgery," Mamon explains.
Surgery alone may be sufficient for very early, shallow tumors within the esophagus, and has good success rates. At the other extreme, if scans show that the cancer has spread to the patient's liver, lungs, or bone, it is labeled Stage 4 and the treatment of these metastatic cases will likely be limited to palliative therapy to make the patient more comfortable.
In less-advanced Stage 2 and 3 cancers, the tumor penetrates into but not through the esophagus' muscular wall, with cancer cells found in lymph nodes but no other organs. Here, the usual approach is a combined attack with radiation, drugs, and surgery.
A common regimen, says Enzinger, is a course of 28 daily radiation treatments carried out over 5½ weeks, with simultaneous weekly chemotherapy infusions to shrink the tumor. The patient then has a break of one or two months before surgery (Enzinger helped develop a widely used chemo combination for esophageal cancer).
Surgery is appropriate in about 30 percent of esophageal cancer cases, says Swanson, leader of DF/BWCC's Lowe Center for Thoracic Oncology.
Surgeons at DF/BWCC, led by Raphael Bueno, MD, carry out more than 100 operations for esophageal cancer a year, he says – the highest volume in New England and one of the highest nationwide.
Minimally invasive "keyhole" surgery can be substituted for the more traumatic "open" operation in some patients. Instead of large cuts, surgeons make a number of smaller incisions.
Swanson and Jon Wee, MD, a minimally invasive thoracic surgery specialist at DF/BWCC, say that in experienced hands, the keyhole procedure enables patients to recover more quickly at home and get back to full activity in a much shorter period compared to the traditional "open" operation.
Banks, the Washington businessman, is grateful that he was able to have the keyhole procedure done by Swanson and Wee in April 2009.
"I was in pain only for the first couple of days," Banks said in July. "Now I am back to playing golf two to three times a week – and playing well."
While esophageal cancer remains a daunting foe, researchers have grounds for optimism. Although no screening test is on the horizon, Fuchs is hopeful that current studies may lead to identification of high-risk groups.
"If we can understand the risk factors and the genetics of esophageal cancer better, we might be able to ascertain whom we should send for an upper endoscopy and follow them at regular intervals," he says.
Swanson is encouraging, as well, noting that combination therapy is increasing cure and survival rates.
"And we're doing it with less disruption of people's lives," he adds. "We need to remain very proactive with this disease now that we have more effective diagnostic and treatment options. The earlier we detect the problem, the more opportunity we have for an outstanding outcome."

Email from media friend at Florida encampment.by betterbunny
 The mood is definitely changing around here, especially in our little camp.
 No matter which side you agree with, this story has become tragically sad. I will fully admit that when I came here, I agreed with the pulling of the tube. I still believe that after 15 years in this state she should rest in peace in a higher place. But to say that providing nutrition and hydration through a tube is "artificial life support", and that by pulling it is a humane way to end her life is completely absurd.
 If she was on true life support, she would have died quickly

CHICAGO -- LeBron James is taking his game to the silver screen.
The Miami Heat superstar confirmed reports before Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls that he will co-star with Kevin Hart in the comedy Ballers. Hart plays the brother of an NBA star who gets a chance to prove himself at a fantasy basketball camp in Miami.
James says the opportunity to work with Hart was a product of their "friendship" and "mutual respect." He says the role is "something I could relate to, as far as fantasy basketball and guys wanting to be basketball players" who "never had really had the great opportunity to be a professional athlete."

Hyderabad is the capital of Andhra Pradesh. It is a big, lively and traditional city. Situated on the banks of the river Musi, the city gives travellers fascinating glimpses of past splendours – the legacy of its four hundred year old history. The city, which was earlier called as Bhagyanagar, is better known as the Istanbul of India. On every street corner, you will see its dualistic character, the coming together of Muslims and Hindus.
It boasts of examples of Qutb Shahi architecture - the Jami Masjid, Toli Masjid and the Hyderabad symbol, the Char Minar(char- four and minar - tower). The Char Minar is sometimes compared with the Arch the Triomphe and is located in the heart of the city. The minar is surrounded by the hustle and bustle of market life and the visitors of the Mecca Masjid.
Hyderabad also claims to have one of the largest Buddha statues. Some ten kilometres away from the city, the marvellous Golconda Fortress and the tombs of the Quatab Shahi Kings can be visited.

Star allrounder Shane Watson has thrown another scare into the Australian camp ahead of the three-Test series with South Africa.
Watson reinjured his troublesome left calf on Saturday while bowling his first over of the day for NSW in their Sheffield Shield clash with Queensland in Brisbane.
The downcast 31-year-old stopped short after his sixth ball and then held a lengthy conversation with Blues' and Test captain Michael Clarke.
He stayed on the field for the following over but, when spinner Stephen O'Keefe dismissed Joe Burns next ball, he trudged off Allan Border Field and headed to the Blues' dressing room.
Medical staff reported Watson suffered calf soreness and would continue to be assessed as the second day's play went on.
It's a particular worry as Australia's vice-captain has endured problems with his calf in the past five months and was sent home from England during the one-day series loss in July.
The latest scare comes after Ricky Ponting was withdrawn from Tasmania's Shield match against South Australia on Friday due to hamstring soreness, Pat Cummins was ruled out of the summer with a back injury and all members of the Australian top order suffered Shield failures in the past 48 hours.
The first Test between Australia and South Africa begins in Brisbane on Friday.

(CBS/AP) SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Police said a California woman was arrested Sunday when they found her autistic son in her filthy apartment after she reported him missing.
The Sacramento Bee reports that sheriff's deputies found the 9-year-old boy in plain sight in a bedroom, after being called on a report of a missing child. His mother, 30-year-old Christina Milligan, was arrested on suspicion of child endangerment.
Sheriff's officials said the apartment had cockroaches, dirty diapers and trash and smelled of urine. The boy and another 2-year-old child were taken into protective custody.
Sheriff's spokesman Jason Ramos said Milligan posted bond and was released Sunday night.

A 30 year old woman with 63kg and 5ft7"could run after 13 year old boy of 4ft11"and 35kg and catch him in 5 minutes time(running in straight line).My doubt is being heavier than the boy,how could the woman run faster.the woman had no training in athletics and boy had no health issues.what is the inference if instead of 5 minutes the women had caught the boy in about only 10 minutes?
Could you be more specific about what you are asking. You did not mention the total distance traveled. However, the woman does have twice the stride length as the boy due to her height.
