Two dissidents go home to house arrest
Both served four years for 'anti-government' activities
September 11, 2012
Two political dissidents have completed four-year jail terms and have returned home to begin several years of house arrest. Nguyen Van Tuc returned to his home in northern Thai Binh province yesterday. He will be under house arrest for a further three years. "My husband has served four years in jail for the people and country. My children and I are very proud of him," his wife Bui Thi Re told Voice of America. She said he suffers illnesses relating to the heart and spine but his spirits remain high. Tuc, 49, who was arrested on September 10, 2008, produced articles on human rights, sovereignty, and land disputes between people and government authorities. The father of two and five other dissidents went on trial in Hai Phong city in October 2009. They were accused of "restoring and disseminating documents that slandered government officials and posing them on the internet." They were also accused of hanging banners and giving out anti-government leaflets in Hai Phong city and Hai Duong province. Writer Nguyen Xuan Nghia, 64, who was accused of being the leader of those dissidents, is serving a six-year sentence in jail and will have three years of house arrest. The other four arrested have completed their sentences. Local bloggers also reported today that political dissident Pham Van Troi, who went on trial in Ha Noi in 2008, has ended his four-year prison term and returned home. He will be under house arrest for four years in Hanoi. Related reports Catholic lawyer among jailed dissidents Hmong protesters get jail terms

The new Vienna Design underlines that you are a trendsetter. For the current season the renowned label sets the standards with its collection for 2016. The UN333 is available in the Edel-Optics online shop in other styles from Vienna Design collections 2015 and 2016.
Semi-rim frames are decisive for the distinctive lines of the model. A stylish accent that never puts the overall appearance out of balance. The quadratic shape is a good choice, especially for softer facial features. The square glasses give more contour to a round face. The straight outer edges also give the impression that the face is longer. Braun is the perfect alternative for those who find black too high in contrast. Brown flatters the face unobtrusively.
With the help of our digital dispensing optician, your prescription lenses can be configured according to your own requirements. Anti-reflective and cleaning coatings, antistatic and lotus effect are included as standard for plastic lenses.
In our online shop we have consistently low prices. You won't get UN333 at such a low price, not even in the sale.

, point of view and voice, brevityintensitysurprise, first drafts and revision In this writing workshop, students will develop and produce a CIMscorable 4page 1,000word short story. Week One: Week Two: Week Three: Assessment: Focus: character, mood and setting Focus: point of view and voice, situation and plot Focus: brevityintensitysurprise, rewriting and editing
Students will participate in all writing activities. Students will develop a dramatic outline for evaluation. Students will write a draft of a short story for evaluation and revision. Students will complete a 4page 1,000word short story. 50 percent of grade based on final story, 50 percent on participation Short story idea decided upon by end of period Feb. 19. All first drafts turned in by Feb. 21 at the end of class. Final stories read in class Feb. 27. Final stories turned in by end of class. Instructional Plans Overview of next three weeks: Grading, read sample short story. Activity: "I am the person who …" for classmates to get to know each other better. Readaround of all pieces. Assessment: Quiz students on what they remember about each person.
Day One:
Day Two:
Presentation of basic aspects of the short story: character, mood and setting, point of view and voice, situation and plot, brevityintensity, surprise, first drafts and revisions. Activity: Write a onepage description of a person's room without
the person being present. Describe only the place. Create a sense of the character's tastes, background, and place as a way of defining a character. Volunteers read. Activity: Give each student a word that could be a personality characteristic. Describe this person eating in the cafeteria using this characteristic. Think about what they're eating and how they are eating it. The words to choose from are lovely, nervous, creepy, dumb, content, sick, shy, pathetic, joyful, anxious, childlike, clumsy, polite, hungry. You have to describe the person without using the word you received. Telling takes us out of the actual moment. When you are writing, freeze the moment, then take your time and expand it. Day Three: Activity: Pass out color magazine photos of one or two people without advertising or words on the page. Starting with the character's name, write a present tense narrative. Collect descriptions and photos from students. Tack pictures to the wall. Read descriptions and see if class can guess which descriptions match which photos. Think about how effective it is to describe your subject in that moment. Underline your favorite sentence in the story. Have all students share their work (in smaller classes) OR turn their chairs around to form tables, and have each group decide which one from their group to read to the whole class. Bonus Activity, if time: Write your character's name at the top of the page. Then fill in this sentence ten times: He/She is the sort of person who —." Day Four: Hand out story "Isla" by Sandra Kolankiewicz. Read around/sentence. Listen for description of setting. Get past sight information and use smell, taste, touch. Activity: Pick one of the following words that describe a character, and write a 11/2 page story: paranoid, in love, depressed, obsessed, a miser who has won the lottery. The story must be in first person. Here's the setup: It is 4 p.m. on Christmas Eve, and the character hasn't done any shopping yet. The character goes to the mall to do shopping for one hour. Everyone writes the same scene. Present mood exercises in class. Activity: Take five minutes to visualize a memory — a really small moment, such as sitting at the table eating cereal, and make a story out of it. First person, abut you. Freeze time and recreate the moment. Go back as far as you can remember, because that memory will be stripped of
everything but its essence. If you like, exaggerate each element of the story until it is a totally new story. Day Five: Hand out "Steady Hands At Seattle General." Discuss how to write dialogue. Remember the three essential rules when creating an invented character: 1) the character is defined by what he or she looks like — physicality, dress, smell (too much cologne); 2) how he or she behaves, what they do, action; and 3) how he/she speaks, talks, or not, cam be implied; what they say. Also remember that with dialogue, in real conversations, people don't answer each others questions or comments. Each character has a different agenda, so what they say to each other and what they mean can be vastly different. The other trick: writing dialogue that sounds like people are really talking, which is different from what dialogue sounds like in real life. Activity: Choose two characters who, to begin with, don't want to reveal their real purpose to each other. Have each one talk from their own particular point of view. Start with your own two characters, or use one of the following: A son asking his father to use the car; a girl on the phone with a friend who is in love; a policeman interviewing a criminal. Day Six: Activity: Point of view. Write two pages of the same event (four pages total), two pages from one point of view, two pages from another. Events can be student's choice. I will also pass out short newspaper stories that showcase dramatic conflict. Students will identify all the characters in the story, and choose one point of view from which to tell the story. They can depart from the facts of the news story if they like. After 20 minutes, have them choose another character and tell the same story from a different point of view. (minor character, major character.) This demonstrates how point of view affects the way in which the story is told. Present point of view exercise in class. Hand out "Any Minute Mom Should Come Blasting Through the Door" and "Reading the Paper." Short story idea decided upon by each student by end of period. Activity: Brainstorm a list of six story ideas. When you find something interesting, your mind and heart sit up and take notice. There is a place where good writing comes from. The only god writing you will do is what interests you. Start with something meaningful and embellish
Day Seven:
it. Day Eight: Day Nine: Day Ten: Day Eleven: Begin drafting story in class. Finish draft at home. Present first drafts in class. If students still have not finished first draft, more writing time given in class. All first drafts turned in. Activity: Present first drafts in class Drafts passed back to students with comments. Discussion of revising and rewriting, including 10 shaping story, 2) filling out description, 3) cutting back on description and unnecessary dialogue, 4) clarity, and 5) the role of brevity, intensity and surprise in a short story. Activity: Students get into small groups and read their stories to each other, soliciting feedback. Day Twelve: Activity: Students take the five aspects of revision discussed on Monday and apply them to their own story. Students write a page detailing what they have changed, due at the end of class. Students are expected to try major changes at this point, since they can always go back to their first draft. Experimentation is the key. Inclass writing time. Stories must be completed and turned in by Friday. Activity: Final stories presented in class. Final stories presented (continued), inclass writing time, whatever is needed. Wrapup.
Day Thirteen: Day Fourteen: Day Fifteen:

The contrivance of plot is compensated by one of the most genial casts in history. Full of wonderful bon mots, TOWN is acted with comic fervor by Grant, Arthur, and Colman.
Colman plays a renowned law professor who wants to spend a quiet summer writing while he awaits an appointment to the Supreme Court. He takes lodgings in the home of Arthur, a schoolteacher, but Colman's summer proves to be anything but quiet. Grant, who has escaped from jail after being labeled
as the man behind a deadly factory fire, has taken refuge in the house as well. Arthur tells the bearded professor that Grant is the gardener, taking great care to protect Grant's secret. Colman is set in his ways when it comes to legalities, but what's more, he soon learns the real reason for
Grant's stay at the house. It turns out that Grant was framed by a corrupt local government. The foreman who supposedly died in the blaze is very much alive, and both Colman and Grant develop an active interest in Arthur.
Grant, Arthur, and Colman are a terrific threesome, playing well off one another in a finely constructed love triangle. Both men want Arthur, yet Colman never lets his desire for her take precedence over the justice that must be done. Stevens directs his cast well, handling the double-edged story
with grace and style. He originally shot two endings, one with Colman getting Arthur, and the other having Arthur pair with Grant. Both endings were shown in preview screenings, and audience polls decided how the film would end. This was Colman's first film at Columbia since 1937's LOST HORIZON.
Much to his delight, he learned that Stevens had arranged it so the actor would not have to deal with studio chief Harry Cohn during TALK OF THE TOWN's production. At the time Colman had been experiencing some popularity problems at the box office, and this hit film gave his career the desired

Yes it's well..
In reply to bgshutter • Oct 27, 2011
lit outside but the platforms are under shade. I use ISO 800 mainly to shorten the exposure time in order to catch the super speed of the divers. I should have tried ISO 400 to reduce the noise. I always comfortable with A55 at ISO 800 but I do not know why it generate quite a bit of noise under these condition. Is it due to the speed or the ultra bright background?
