Jimmy Doherty stars in Channel 4 OD pork campaign
TV presenter and pig farmer Jimmy Doherty will star in three short films on Channel 4 On Demand to raise consumer awareness about British pork.
The three-minute films, which will air for the first time today (3 January), will run for eight weeks and form park of the "Give a Fork About Your Pork" campaign, which has been developed with the aim of engaging consumers about the Red Tractor Pork brand.
The campaign comes at a critical stage, with the 1 January sow stall ban coming in to place across Europe and in the wake of Sainsbury's decision to remove the Red Tractor logo from packaging.
The three films featuring Mr Doherty will tell the story of Red Tractor pork production in an entertaining and accessible way, communicating the core values and benefits – such as full chain assurance, responsible farming and stringent production standards.
Shorter versions of the films will also be available for viewing on a Channel 4 microsite.
BPEX interim head of marketing Karen Hughes said: "The campaign message seeks to prompt people to think about what they are buying, then make a conscious decision to choose Red Tractor pork – which in turn will help to support the British pig farmers.
"A recent survey that we [BPEX] undertook told us that people are willing to back Britain's pig farmers and this will point them in the right direction."

I can even put aside poor writing and editing mistakes for the sake of good story, but this one was an uphill battle. I wanted to care more for Lyn, a female hunting guide facing constant male judgement, but the writing was long-winded and the editing mistakes glaring. I implore writers to make sure they pay an editor with good references to look at their work prior to publication. Never hand your reader a reason not care on a silver platter.
There was potential for the main character, and I had a soft spot for her father, but overall I was disappointed. The sensual scenes were cheesy and lackluster and the conflict was downright flimsy and overplayed. Lyn smokes and cusses, oh my!

Wednesday's Water News: Public Works Official Resigns After Massive Sewage Spill
In North Carolina, a 32-year veteran of the City of Thomasville's Public Works department has resigned after the largest sewage spill in the state in over a decade went unreported for about 20 days until an environmentalist notified federal investigators.
The EPA, along with the Indiana Department of Environmental Management, is suing the city of Evansville for multiple violations of the federal Clean Water Act.
A water main break in Decatur, Alabama caused more than 2.5 million gallons of water to spill, forcing the local high school to close for the day while work crews repaired the broken pipe.
Traffic piled up Tuesday evening in Rutland, Vermont after a water main break, causing a steady stream of flooding to close two lanes of northbound traffic for about half a mile.
Stimulus Spotlight
The city of Escondido, California will receive $3.25 million in federal stimulus money to replace six miles of aging water lines. Funds from the stimulus money will cover only half the cost of the $6.5 million project. The remainder will come from a low-interest state loan the city plans to pay back over a 20-year period.

Six hours after Kemper Roach was born, it grew clear something was wrong.
Jitters took over his 6-pound body. Wails rose from his throat. Nothing could comfort him.
"It got horrific," his father remembered.
It was the addiction taking hold. Less than a day old, Kemper was suffering from opioid withdrawal.
Doctors at Slidell Memorial Hospital diagnosed him with neonatal abstinence syndrome, which happens when babies are exposed to drugs in the womb and are dependent on them after they are born. They wrote in medical records that he was jittery and fussy, and had an elevated temperature and loose bowel movements.

Honor Veterans, Rebuff Sacrifice
By Wayne Dunn
(Also published byCapitalism Magazine on November 10, 2002)
In Veterans' Day ceremonies throughout America, the word "sacrifice" will repeatedly be invoked to hail our heroes' finest actions.
While our veterans deserve the highest praise and deepest admiration, that term, however well-intentioned the sentiment may be, is simply innocently misused when describing the deeds of those who defend freedom. To illustrate how it might look to consistently accept sacrifice as an ideal, imagine receiving this letter regarding a loved-one in the military:
"Dear Sir (Ma'am),
I am Johnny's commanding officer and I will soon lead him into combat. I just want to assure you that I am encouraging him and all my other men to selflessly sacrifice their lives on the battlefield.
My personal desire is to see that my soldiers return home alive. But I have sacrificed personal desires. Looking out for my troops is to my self-interest. But I have sacrificed my self-interest. Getting my men killed does not benefit me; I gain nothing from it. I have selflessly sacrificed such petty considerations as personal benefit and gain.
Are we not taught to love our enemies and turn the other cheek? Well, what better way to do that than to sacrifice our lives for the enemy's sake?
Make Johnny's funeral arrangements pronto.
Sacrificially yours,
Captain XXXXX"
Now, you might be thinking, "I'm not for THAT kind of sacrifice!"
But what other kind is there? A sacrifice is surrendering something you value for something you value less or don't value at all – the opposite of pursuing self-interest.
Imagine applying that standard, say, to the choice of saving either your child or Osama bin Laden. What would it mean here to sacrifice? Well, your self-interest is to save your loved-one – you value him and not a mass murderer. A true sacrifice would be to save bin Laden and let your child die – an act devoid of self-interest.
The same goes for other rational values, including freedom. It's to your self-interest to preserve liberty. A sacrifice would be to cheek-turn while you and the people you love are enslaved – which is precisely what our brave veterans didn't do. They took up arms when the freedom they valued needed defending, and many paid a heavy price, some with their lives. We owe them our gratitude.
But self-sacrifice? That's our enemies' gig, not ours. The Germans who spawned Nazism, for example, held that the individual is merely an agent of sacrifice for the nation and the race. Hitler was the result. The Russians who swallowed communism accepted that the individual is nothing but a sacrificial lamb for the proletariat and the "greater good." Stalin was their prize. And today, Islamic fundamentalists preach that the individual is nothing more than a vessel of self-sacrifice for religious faith, for Allah. Tyrannies have been their reward.
Whether fascist, communist, or fanatic religionist, self-sacrifice is the common theme song. They merely differ on who should be sacrificed to whom and for what reasons.
But America was based on the enshrinement, not the sacrifice, of the individual. We sing a song of self-interest (though sometimes off key). Indeed, possessing the inalienable rights to one's own life, liberty and pursuit of happiness is simultaneously (but not coincidentally) the most selfish and the most sacrosanct American ideal – an ideal that doesn't evaporate upon donning our nation's uniform.
As a former captain in the US Army, I can attest that I never encountered anyone who joined because of some masochistic yearning to transform himself into a sacrificial animal. To the contrary, our fighting men and women hold liberty in such high esteem that they are willingly to undergo some hardships, to potentially lose life and limb, to protect it. For such patriots, safeguarding freedom merits risking death, but death is not their goal. Literal sacrifice – the shirking of a higher value for the sake of a lower one or of a non-value – is nowhere on their agenda.
Our soldiers had much rather engage in selfish activity, like killing terrorists – you know, those lovely darlings who do things like fly commercial airliners into buildings full of innocent people, sacrificing everyone's lives for Allah.
Triumphing in the war on terror requires that we be selfish. It requires pulling out all the stops. It requires that our political leaders be more concerned with preserving innocent Americans than with sacrificing our interests to preserve alleged innocents in terrorist nations, or with appeasing queasy "allies," or with kowtowing to the UN.
I can think of no better way of celebrating Veterans' Day and honoring our heroes than by committing to unequivocal victory.

Carol Es at her opening "SHE DREAMED SHE REMEMBERED" in Culver City
We went to ton of art shows and openings all over town. Best, most crowded opening was for Carol Es in Culver City – great painting of finding the perfection of our neurotic self in an imperfect world. The work is fun and serious, well painted and composed but not so mature that you brood. Plus she is one of the few artists who's art has sold in the galleries this past few weeks, what with the stock market crash pretty much decimating the L.A. art world – they talk about it openly… Every gallery owner knows his burn rate – how much money will he flush away on rent without sales until he or she is forced to close. It was a day with very few red dots.

Finally, this device is in conflict with Asne Whitewolf (April of 2000 via Artemisia): (Fieldless) A wolf sejant argent with only one CD for the change in field (RfS X.4.a.iii).
5.Colla Cunocroi – New Name and Device. Argent, a hazel leaf vert charged with a hazelnut Or, in base a goutte d' eau.
(Unser Hafen) Gender: Female. Submitter cares most about language/culture - Gaelic, and meaning - hazel. Changes accepted.
[Colla] - Traditional Irish names were formed from two parts; a personal name and a byname that differentiated or qualified the bearer.(Bath, 10-13) The by-name was often a family or clan name, but it was occasionally a qualifier chosen from an event in the bearer's life or a personal capability; for example, the hero Setena took on the name Cuculiann (hound of Culann) after an important battle with a great hound. (Graves, p. 44) The judge Feidlimid O'Curry (anglicized) was called Feidlimid Rechtmar, (Law-Giver) when he became the ruler of Ireland in 1051(MacManus, 39)
The name Colla is a feminization of coll, a word drawn from the Irish Beth-Luis Nion, or Ogham, and meaning 'hazel". It was a common practice in Ireland to give a child a name that was well-favored or imparted blessing to an affinity the child had shown. (MacCulloch, 123)Being named for the Hazel tree links the bearer with the gaining of knowledge and wisdom. This connotation comes in part from the Tale of the Hazel Pool; in Celtic tradition, the Salmon of Knowledge is said to eat the 9 nuts of poetic wisdom dropped into its sacred pool from the hazel tree growing beside it, every three years. Each nut eaten by the salmon becomes a spot on its skin. These nuts held the wisdom of the world. Hazel is linked with the gain of knowledge, wisdom, intelligence, inspiration, and poetic insight. Individuals in search of knowledge, most commonly Irish bards progressing in their training, would seek out hazel trees and eat from them to gain wisdom. (MacCulloch, 377-413). The name was taken by some families for similar purposes. In fact, Celtic trees were highly symbolic, as Tacitus wrote during the reign of the Roman Emperor Nero in A.D. 58, : the grove is the center of their whole religion. It is regarded as the cradle of the race and the dwelling place of the supreme god to whom all things are subject and obedient. Some tribes go so far as to take on trees as their patron spirits and adopt their names. We see tribes calling themselves the Men of Oak; the Son of Yew and the Men of Rowans. This tradition continues for centuries; Bath noted; 'Colla was a Gaelic personal name and Colla Uais, a semi-legendary Irish king of the fourth century, is claimed as the great ancestor of the MacDonalds. (Bath, p.1190)
[Cunocroi´] - The byname Cunocroi is formed of two words; cuno (der. spelling kuno) a word that, as many Old Irish words, is contextual. Many Irish words had three or four meanings, decided by their situation(Hip.bks, sec.II, pg 13) The word, which fell into disuse after the 1400's(Hip.bks,sec.II, pg. 17) gave rise to four modern Irish words; conn(reason, intelligence), cu (hound, wolf), cum(to create, form, devise) and cù-dubh (otter). (Hip.bks,sec.I,pg. 10 + Ó Conchúir) The second word, croi, means heart.( Ó Conchúir+ Hip.bks,sec.I, pg. 19) This byname essentially rolls four meanings into one; 'of the creating heart' 'of the wolf/otter's heart' and 'of wise heart' It aptly sums up what I do and who I am.

6. Domin d'Alsace – Device resubmission (Laurel). Quaterly gules and vert, in sinister chief an oak tree, in dexter base a stump Or.
Submitter's name was registered in January 2006, via Outlands http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2006/01/06-01lar.html
Submitter's previous device Quarterly vert and gules, a tree issuant from a stump couped Or, was returned on July 2009
LoAR http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2009/07/09-07lar.html for the following reasons: This device conflicts with that of Brianne Hyla, Per chevron Or and vert, in base a maple tree couped Or. There is a single CD for the changes to the field, but Brianne's tree is forced to base therefore there is not a CD for position. Prior precedent has stated "Brianne's tree is a 'maple' due only to artistic detailing, it is otherwise identical to a generic tree" (Gregor MacDonald and Petronel Harlakenden, 10/2008), thus there is no difference for the type of tree. The tree issuing from the stump is blazonable, but does not count for difference against another tree, just as a tree couped is not a CD from a tree eradicated.The submitted device is also in conflict with Della Rovere, Dukes of Urbino (important non-SCA arms), Azure, an oak tree eradicated its four branches knotted in saltire Or. There is a CD for changes to the field, but by precedent (q.v. Gregor MacDonald and Petronel Harlakenden, 10/2008), the nowing of the branches is not worth a CD.

Submitter's previous device Gules, a lily flower argent, slipped and leaved vert, a base wavy argent, was returned on January 2010 LoR http://rampart.outlandsheralds.org/2009-12-lop/1001-lor.html for the following reasons: Conflict with Sancha de Flores (10/03, East): Gules, a columbine slipped and leaved argent. No difference for lily vs. columbine (both are trumpet-shaped flowers). No difference for slipped and leaved argent vs. vert - detail. One CD for addition of the base.
9.Fiórleif eldr orn – New Name and Device. Argent, a phoenix rising from flames gules, within an orle of pheons sable.

We know of no examples of humanoids or other mammals with their backs facing the viewer. [False Isle, Shire of, 10/99, R-An Tir] [Ed.: Returned for lack of petition] Even if the tergiant is merely a weirdness, the dancing position itself is a second step from period style.

First, this at least borders on excessive counterchanging. Second, the counterchanging renders the complex charges of compass roses near completely unidentifiable. Third, and least importantly, the bordure is a little on the skinny side. The combination of these issues lead to a return. When resubmitting, please be aware that placing one identical charge in each quadrant of a quarterly field is not considered marshalling and is not a reason for return.

18. Shazadi al-Fustati - New Name.
(Al Barran) Gender: Female. No changes accepted.
- is one of the common anglicized variants for Shahzadi (Shehzadi), an ancient
Persian, Hindi, Urdu and Arabic word normally used as a title for a royal born
princess. More so
then men Jewish women tend to have names that closely resembled those of their
Muslim neighbors. While some women as noted above did have classical Hebrew
names, the vast majority of names listed in the data set from the Genizia shows
Jewish women with Arabic style names. These Arabic style names follow several
patterns but all seem to be similar with the practices of Arabic naming among
the Muslim majority in Cairo.
The first form appears to be the name of a favorable trait like Hasab (noble), Husn (beauty), Jamila (beautiful), or Surura (happy). Other names of similar form appear in the list in the appendix. These names would have been in use by the Muslim women around the Jewish community and would have migrated across to the Jewish women. http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/yehoshua/jews_in_cairo/index.html
Many names are derived from everyday Arabic words, whose meanings were probably relatively transparent to the namers. Many refer to a desirable trait or to the preciousness of a child. Meanings are included where possible. http://heraldry.sca.org/laurel/names/geniza.html
[al-Fustati] -locative feminine byname in the Middle Eastern tradition, meaning "from Fustat". Fustat was a capital of Egypt during much of the early Crusades, until it was supplanted by nearby Cairo.
19.Tiberius Acilius Brutus - Device resubmission (Laurel). Per bend sinister argent and vert, a quiver and a ram's head caboshed, counterchanged.
Submitter's name was registered on March 2006 LoAR, via Outlands, http://heraldry.sca.org/heraldry/loar/2006/03/06-03lar.html
Submitter's previous device Gules, in fess a natural leopard couchant guardant between two Ionic columns Or, was returned on the same LoAR, for the following reasons: conflict with Randall of Willowrock, Gules, in fess a mullet inverted between two Doric columns argent. There is a CD for changing the tincture of the primary charges, but no difference for changing the type only of one of three charges in fess.
20. William de Camville - New Name.

Well, OOPSLA was amazing this year! But I'm biased, since I was program chair. I had fun meeting everybody who came from around the world to share the OOPSLA experience. This year had some consolidation and regrouping, but also gave some glimpses of what's to come.
Guy Steele gave a great talk on Fortress, a high-productivity language for the Fortran crowd. It was also a great sequel to his 1998 talk on Growing a Language. And I had fun introducing him.
I also had fun dressing up as Luke Skywalker (complete with OOPSLA badge... hey, i should scan that in) and going to OMSI. I taked with Sam Kamin about my ideas for model-driven programming, but I'm not sure I made a lot of sense. Peri Tarr dressed as Darth Vader. We developed a little skit, but didn't use it. And we decided not to do battle... although now I think we should have. One line from the skit: Luke hears Obi wan saying "Luke, Use the Fortess"!

Over The Land Of The Rising Sun
researcher, Centre for Development
and Peace Studies
Northeast India adds another name to its tally of more
than 70 insurgent outfits. This time it is the state
of Arunachal Pradesh where this new rebel outfit has
sprung up. The new outfit, the Arunachal Naga Liberation
Front (ANLF), was formed in May 2010 in the Paniduria
area in the frontier state's Tirap district. The
outfit is said to be setting up a camp in the district
and providing training to its new recruits. The camp,
according to media reports quoting the Arunachal Pradesh
police, is run under the guidance of a former 'sergeant
major' of NSCN-IM, who had deserted the outfit
in 2009. The formation of ANLF is supposedly backed
by the Khaplang faction of NSCN or NSCN-K.
Arunachal Pradesh has been a state which had almost
no local insurgent group. The only case of indigenous
insurgency movement in Arunachal Pradesh was the rise
of the Arunachal Dragon Force (ADF) in 1996, which was
rechristened as East India Liberation Front (EILF) in
2001. The outfit remained active in the Lohit district,
before being neutralised by the state police forces.
However, the state has been used by other insurgent
outfits of the region. Its geographical proximity with
Myanmar has lead to Arunachal Pradesh being used as
a transit route for the insurgent outfits. The United
Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) has been using the
state as a transit since the late 1980's for the
movement of its cadres between the easternmost districts
of Assam and the outfit's facilities in the Sagaing
division in Myanmar. ULFA cadres traversing the Assam-Arunachal
Pradesh and Myanmar route had set up transit camps and
safe houses in the Manabhum Reserve Forest, spread over
1500 square kilometres in the Lohit district of Arunachal
Pradesh. However, counter insurgency operations in these
areas, especially 'Operation Blazing Khukri' (between
April 5 and 10, 2007) and 'Operation Blooming Orchid'
(between April 27 and May 1, 2007) by the Army has cleared
those areas.
The Naga insurgent outfits, NSCN-IM and NSCN-K, have
also used the state to extend their influence and extortion
activities. Both the factions are active in the Tirap
and Changlang districts of Arunachal Pradesh, which
are in the proximity of Nagaland, and have carved out
separate areas of influence in these districts.
The Tirap district is a stronghold of NSCN-IM, with
considerable presence of its cadres and support base.
The emergence of ANLF, which is supposedly backed by
the NSCN-K, is surely going to have an impact on the
insurgency scenario in the district. The ANLF has also
started sending extortion notes to politicians and the
business community in the district. As NSCN-IM also
runs its extortion network in the district, chances
of a new turf war seems to be inevitable.
As a bordering state with China, Arunachal Pradesh
has immense strategic importance. It is important from
the point of view of national security and as such it
is very much necessary that the law and order situation
in the state is well maintained. So in order to ensure
effective maintenance of law and order within the state
and to deny the insurgent groups of other states breathing
space in Arunachal Pradesh, the state government, in
December 2008, constituted a 'Core Group'
on security on the line of Unified Command structure
in neighbouring Assam. It is headed by the Chief Minister
of Arunachal Pradesh, with General Officer Commanding
(GoC) of the Army's Tezpur-based IV Corps in northern
Assam, in charge of operations.
The security forces in the state have been fighting
with the insurgents in the state for long and with the
emergence of ANLF it is sure to make the situation even
murkier. The security forces now have to work harder
for curbing the extortion activities of the outfits
as well as see that the state doesn't become the
grounds for a new inter-group war. The NSCN-K has long
been trying to break the supremacy of NSCN-IM in the
Tirap district and with the help of ANLF it would be
trying to do just that. The Khaplang faction is also
taking the help of Myanmer-based Kachin Independence
Army (KIA) and recruiting more youths in its group in
the Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh. A new war
of area dominance may be seen very soon in these districts
with NSCN-IM on one side and ANLF – NSCN-K on
the other.
There is another point of concern in this area. In
view of creation of an unfavourable situation with China,
the Army deployment would be increased in the borders.
In such a case, counter insurgency operations inside
the state may come down and the situation may be used
by the insurgent outfits to extend their activities.
The security forces then have to face the challenge
on two fronts. This, of course, is just a possibility
that one is talking about.
The route through Arunachal Pradesh to Myanmar has
been used by cadres of insurgent groups for long. But
now, with the emergence of this local insurgent outfit,
ANLF, there are chances that this new outfit may try
to collect charges from other groups for using their
territory to pass through. This may help this group
to strengthen their financial resources. Gaining financial
strength will allow this group to procure more fire
power and recruit more cadres. If this happens, it could
lead to increase in influence of this group which will
ultimately lead to deterioration of law and order situation
in the state.
The emergence of the ANLF is a bad development in this
insurgency-ridden region. At a time when peace seems
to be coming to the region, birth of a new insurgent
group does not carry a good signal. The security forces
need to act quickly while the ANLF is still in its nascent
stage. Giving the outfit time to consolidate its position
would mean another challenge for the forces in the future.

Indian investments to rise post trade pact: Malaysian minister
Indian investments in Malaysia are expected to surge with trade pacts expected to be inked between the two sides later this year, a Malaysian minister told a newspaper.business Updated: Jul 12, 2010 13:55 IST
Indian investments in Malaysia are expected to surge with trade pacts expected to be inked between the two sides later this year, a Malaysian minister has told a newspaper.
"Although it is still early to tell and, given the level of more business to business engagements between our two countries, we are hoping to see more MoUs", Malaysian Trade minister Mustapa Mohammad told Business Times.
India Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will be visiting to Malaysia in September and is expected to sign the Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) for opening up bilateral trade in goods and services, besides various avenues of investment.
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's visit to India in January was described by business communities as a shot in the arm with 18 agreements signed during the trip.
"Potential investments from the January visit is estimated at 1.1 billion ringgit (1$=3.2 ringgit).Since they were signed only six months ago, the projects are mostly at the early stages of implementation", it said.
The 18 MOUs, signed by both the countries in January, targetted services sector, aviation industry, biotechnology, infrastructure, petroleum and gas, education and multimedia sector.
Mohammad said free trade agreements will raise the interest of the private sector in both the countries. The Asean-India FTA on goods, which came into effect on January 1 saw 4,399 COs (Certificates of Origin) issued until June.
"There has been increasing interest in the AIFTA since it was concluded in 2009. I believe the private sector views the FTA as a means to gain better access to the promising Indian market", the minister said noting that although it was premature to determine the impact of the Asean-India FTA, total bilateral trade had improved by 11.9 per cent to $4.23 billion from January to May.
"If this trend continues, we are targeting for bilateral trade to grow by 20 per cent in 2010 over the previous year", he added.
India is Malaysia's largest export destination in South Asia, with 100 Indian companies operating on its shores compared to the 3,000 operating in neighbouring Singapore.
"We hope that with the conclusion and implementation of the Asean-India FTA in services and investments and CECA, we will be able to see an increase in the number of Indian companies operating in Malaysia", the minister said.

Kuma – Review
Kuma begins at a wedding in a small mountain village in Turkey, although most of the action takes place in a flat in Vienna. The film's protagonists travel a great distance from the joy of a nuptial, but they never quite leave behind their old village ways.
The wedding is between beautiful country girl Ayssa (played by Begüm Akkaya) and more sophisticated Hasan (Murathan Muslu) and they are due to return to Hasan's family home in Vienna. However, whispers between Hasan's parents suggest that everything is not quite as it appears. Indeed it is not. Hopefully a translation of the film's title from Turkish is not too much of a spoiler – Kuma means second wife.
The marriage to Hasan is a sham. There are a few other twists in the tale that keeps the audience guessing, but this is not what makes the film so powerful. Instead it paints a picture of the deeply drawn characters and the relationships between them. The film is softly spoken, but the emotions run deeper than the Bosphorus.
The UK poster for Kuma has a quote from Allan Hunter reviewing the film for the Daily Express in which he compares the film to the Iranian Oscar winner A Separation. At first this comparison might seem a little crass – yes, both films are domestic dramas set in 'Middle Eastern' cultures, and the women even wear headscarves in both films, but that is not where the similarities lie. Kuma might not quite reach the cinematic perfection of A Separation, they both do share some similar qualities.
As in A Separation, the characters in Kuma are utterly believable – there are strictly no caricatures. Everyone is treated with the utmost compassion. We may not agree with how they behave, but it is impossible to look down on them. This makes for an exceptionally warm film – even when things are not going well for the people involved.
As mentioned earlier, most of the action takes place in the family's Vienna flat. This is a household largely populated by women and the film is seen through the eyes of their eyes, especially the second wife. Nothing is at is appears in this family – traditions and religious prescriptions create a gulf between the reality of their lives and what they pretend is the case. Ayssa must pretend to be married to the son while actually being married to his father, which leads to more fabrications.
This tissue of lies just waits to unravel – good dramatic fare of course. But we also see something about the conflicts between duty and self, and what happens when you put others – your parents in particular – first.
Kuma is the first feature film by Umut Dağ, a student of Michael Haneke at the Vienna Film Academy. Unlike Haneke, Dağ doesn't look through icy cold eyes. His film may rarely leave a slightly shabby flat, but the complex humanity of its occupants will leave us with questions but not lacking sympathy.
Kuma is out in cinemas on Friday 16 August.

AdDuplex's latest report suggests some positive signs for Microsoft in terms of Windows 10 Mobile adoption. The report states that Windows 10 Mobile is now running on 7 percent of all Windows phones now, which has grown by 1.3 percent compared to last month's 5.7 percent. Not anything substantial given the fact that Windows 10 Mobile is still not mature enough and the upgrade is still being rolled out in phases. Hence, newly launched devices like the Lumia 640 are the ones apparently picking up the pace.
These are signs that Windows 10 Mobile update may have the fastest adoption rate just like Windows 10 for PCs. It'll be interesting to see how the newly launched Lumia flagships – the Lumia 950 along with Lumia 950 XL perform in the coming months, which are now available online and across select Microsoft Stores.
Not much to talk about in this month's report from AdDuplex, however, the increased Windows 10 Mobile adoption by Insiders is certainly interesting. Combined with the fact that Windows 10 Mobile official rollout starts in December, the ecosystem is still in its early stage and will be hitting the mainstream market. By the end of February, we'll have a better idea how these newly launched Lumia smartphones and new OS are really performing.
Meanwhile, the report again gives us an idea about the market share of Windows-based handsets in the US. Not much has changed as the new Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL have yet again seen a modest 2.2 percent growth compared to the last month. It commands a 14.5 percent share among all Windows phones, though still lags far behind the Nokia Lumia 635 sitting on top at 32.5 percent.
It is also worth pointing out that the latest AdDuplex report also highlights Turkey for the first time. Interestingly, the top ten Windows devices in the country are over two years old. The top Windows Phone in the country is the old Lumia 520 with an 18.4 percent share, while the large screen Lumia 1320 comes next with a share of 11 percent followed by Nokia Lumia 820, Nokia Lumia 625 and Nokia Lumia 620.

Take it from Lily and Izzy, the best dogs in the world -- downtown KC is a great place for dogs. Here are only five of the many advantages, as well the truth about the one disadvantage.
The Top Five Benefits for Downtown Dogs:
All of the dogs downtown live within a five-minute drive of the off-leash area at Penn Valley Park, and most are within a short walk. Here, your pup will find plenty of friends to chase, nip and boss around (can you tell I have an Australian Shepherd?). There is a separate area for the little dogs, and plenty of room for the big ones to really run after that frisbee. Just remember your poop bags!
Downtown is full of green spaces for your best friend to use to do his business. Some neighborhoods have more grass than others. In my hood in the River Market, my dogs only have to make it across the street when they've really gotta go.
Want a beautiful, green area to take your dog for a walk or a run? Just come down to the Town of Kansas Bridge at the north end of Main Street, and take the stairs down to the trail leading to Berkley Riverfront Park. You and your dog will enjoy the river, the trains and the feeling of being in nature right next to your loft. Plus there are several poop bag dispensers right along the trail.
One of the best things about living downtown is making friends with all the other cool people who choose to live in this great place. Walking your dog will get you out there several times a day, and after a few pleasant greetings, you'll get to know your human neighbors and your dog will make friends with all the canine neighbors. Lily and Izzy look forward to seeing friends like Gilly, Fancy, Birdie, Rufio and Aubrey.
Things keep getting better for doggie downtowners. There's a fantastic new pet store in the Crossroads, the Tail Waggin' Pet Stop, as well as a new doggie day care for which I've heard good reviews, Dog Pawz. Earlier this year we all kicked in our extra dimes and nickels to crowd-fund a new off-leash dog park for the River Market, plus western downtowners can look forward to a new dog park in Case Park, too.
The One Big Downtown Dog Disadvantage:
I do have to level with you on this one. When the wind chill is below zero, if you are like the vast majority of downtown dwellers, you can't just open the back door and let your pup out into your fenced yard to do her business. No; you have to take five minutes to put all your layers back on while your dog anxiously waits for you to take her back into the Arctic air. But refer to numbers one through five above to remind yourself why it's worth it!
What advantages did I forget, fellow downtown dog lovers?

CHARLESTON, S.C. - Charleston Southern closes out the season on the road at Johnson Hagood Stadium as the Buccaneers head to The Citadel for a Lowcountry showdown on Thursday, November 29. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. on ESPN+. Here's three things to watch as the Lowcountry rivalry continues this week.
All game day information is available on the Game Day Central page.
CSU Notes | The Citadel Notes | Big South Notes
Stop The Option
For nearly as long as there has been The Citadel football, there has been the three-back option attack. This season is no different as the Bulldogs once again boast one of the top rushing offenses in FCS.
The Bulldogs are seventh in FCS in rushing yards in 2018 with 290.2 yards per game picked up on the ground. The Citadel has faced an opponent stacking the box in every competition this year, but it hasn't stopped Coach Brent Thompson and the Bulldogs from continuing to probe the opposing defense for big gains.
The Citadel enters Thursday night's game boasting impressive numbers. The Bulldogs are averaging 60.9 carries per game and have eclipsed the 200-yard rushing mark in nine of their 10 games on the season. The Citadel eclipsed 300-rushing yards in five of those contests. The successes on the ground have led to visits to the end zone with the Bulldogs reaching paydirt multiple times in all but one game in 2018.
The Citadel enters the contest with a 4-6 record overall. In their six losses this season, only one opponent was able to limit the Bulldog's rushing attack.
The Citadel Rushing Yards in Losses
Wofford – 217 yards
Chattanooga – 290 yards
Towson – 341 yards
ETSU – 203 yards
Furman – 157 yards
Alabama – 275 yards
The Buccaneers have had measured success against the Bulldogs' option attack over the last four games. CSU is a perfect 4-0 in those contests against The Citadel. Part of their success has been finding ways to limit their Lowcountry rival under 200 rushing yards in each of the last two matchups.
The Citadel Rushing Last Four Games Against CSU
Aug. 31, 2013 at The Citadel – 293 rushing yards
Sept. 20, 2014 vs. The Citadel – 269 rushing yards
Sept. 26, 2015 at The Citadel – 181 rushing yards
Dec. 5, 2015 vs. The Citadel – 199 rushing yards
The Bucs rushing defense has allowed opponents to eclipse 200-yards rushing five times this season but has rounded into form over each of the last two weeks. The Bucs limited Gardner-Webb (41 carries, 72 yards) and Campbell (32 carries, 61 yards) in back-to-back CSU victories. The wins boosted CSU's record back to 5-5 for the season.
CSU has been able to dominate the line of scrimmage over each of its last two games. The Bucs posted two of their top tackle for loss and sack games of the season against Gardner-Webb and Campbell. CSU recorded a season-high seven sacks and 11 tackles for loss against the Runnin' Bulldogs. They followed up with three more sacks and 13.0 tackles for loss against Campbell.
The Bucs led the Big South with 7.3 tackles for loss and 1.6 sacks per game in 2018 paced by the efforts of defensive linemen Johnny Robinson, Solomon Brown, Jonathan Glover, and more. Robinson and Brown are veterans of the series against The Citadel having taken part in the last two wins over the Bulldogs.
Robinson tends to raise his game against option offenses. The two-time All-Big South defensive tackle posted a season-high eight tackles against Kennesaw State this season against the Owls' predominantly triple-option offense. Brown added 14 tackles (nine solo) in against KSU.
Linebackers J.D. Sosebee, Edward King, and Craig Johnson will also need to be in the hunt along the line of scrimmage to limit The Citadel's rushing attack. Sosebee has posted four double-digit tackling efforts on the season, while Johnson bounced back with his first half-sack of the season against Campbell. King continued his recent streak of dominance on the field with a nine-tackle performance that included a career-high 2.5 tackles for loss.
The Bucs defensive efforts will need to contain redshirt freshman A-Back Dante Smith. Smith is coming off a strong performance against Alabama recording 130 yards and two touchdowns on just nine carries. He scored on runs of 45 and 44 yards to pace the Bulldogs' offense against the Crimson Tide.
The Citadel also counters with sophomore quarterback Brandon Rainey. After assuming the reins of the Bulldogs' offense over the last three games, the Acworth, Ga. native has averaged 161.3 rushing yards per game and has totaled 484 total yards and two scores. He joins Lorenzo Ward (76.4 ypg) and Smith in a talented trio that could provide headaches in the open field for the Bucs' defense.
One thing is for sure – the winner of Thursday's game takes control of the Lowcountry rivalry between the two schools.
Taking Control of the Rivalry
The series is tied up at 5-5 heading into Thursday night's contest. Since the rivalry started back in 2002, the two local teams have taken the field together nine times in the regular season and once in the postseason (2015).
The rivalry has been primarily hosted at Johnson Hagood Stadium with Thursday night's contest the ninth meeting between the two teams at The Citadel's home facility. CSU's two home games during the stretch, the 2014 regular season meeting and the 2015 FCS Second Round Game, were held at Buccaneer Field.
The Citadel held the edge early in the rivalry winning the first three contests and five of the first six overall. Included in the stretch was a 64-10 Bulldog win on Aug. 30, 2003, to provide the largest margin of victory in the series.
All-Time CSU vs. The Citadel
Nov. 21, 2002 – CIT W, 53-19
Aug. 30, 2003 – CIT W, 64-10
Sept. 3, 2005 – CIT W, 28-14
Sept. 9, 2006 – CSU W, 38-35
Sept. 1, 2007 – CIT W, 35-14
Sept. 1, 2012 – CIT W, 49-14
Aug. 31, 2013 – CSU W, 32-29
Sept. 20, 2014 – CSU W, 20-18
Sept. 26, 2015 – CSU W, 33-20
Dec. 5, 2015 – CSU W, 14-6
CSU hit its stride in the midst of the last contract against the Bulldogs. After dropping the season-opener in 2012, the Bucs have rattled off a four-game winning streak including the last matchup between the teams in the 2015 FCS Second Round.
Key to CSU's wins during the series has been a balanced offensive approach and strong play by the Buccaneers backfield. Mike Holloway combined for 297 rushing yards and five touchdowns in the 2015 season to lead the Bucs to the pair of victories over the Bulldogs. Christian Reyes was CSU's leading ball carrier in each of the first two wins.
The Buccaneers will look to establish a similar attack on Thursday night behind London Johnson, Ronnie Harris, and company. Johnson is capable of big performances on the ground with a pair of 100-yard rushing games in his career. Harris has also come through on the biggest stages with season-high performances at Florida and Kennesaw State.
A CSU win over The Citadel would swing the advantage in the all-time series firmly in the Buccaneers' favor, but would also continue another CSU streak – finishing above .500.
Finishing Above .500
You'll have to go back to the 2012 season for the last time the Charleston Southern football team finished below .500 on the year. The Bucs went 5-6 in 2012 with a key loss coming in the season opener against The Citadel.
Since then, a new regime changed for the Buccaneers. Following the tenure of former Coach Jamey Chadwell and continued by current head coach Mark Tucker, CSU has posted a 46-24 record over the last six seasons heading into Thursday's matchup. Included in the record are a pair of Big South regular season championships and berths in the FCS Playoffs.
The Bucs' streak of finishing above .500 is the longest in program history dating back to CSU's inception back in 1991. The longest streak prior to the current stretch was two games. CSU accomplished the mark twice, both in 2008-09 and 2005-06.
Overall in CSU's 28-yard football history, the Bucs have finished above .500 nine times. The Bucs will look to reach double-digits this season with a win over the Bulldogs.

Integrated Infrastructure in the Data Center: a Chat with Cisco IT
Coming from the enterprise data center product side of the house, I'm always curious to hear from real-world IT practitioners what problems they wrestle with, how they think about their goals, and what keeps them up a night. At Cisco, we're lucky to have one of the leading enterprise IT shops on the planet. And they're not shy about sharing their opinions on what we're doing with our products and solutions both good and bad.
So, I wanted to get IT's perspective on one of the most critical shifts happening in the data center: customers purchasing integrated stacks or pods of hardware optimized for specific use cases and workloads. Billions of dollars worth of our UCS and Nexus systems are being consumed in this manner. Gartner and IDC refer to the shift toward integrated systems as converged or integrated infrastructure. We have a short white paper that describes this movement and Cisco's approach.
Clearly, our IT shop doesn't need to consume things in the same way as the broader market. But is the notion of integration still relevant? How does Cisco IT frame use cases? How does it achieve standardization of the infrastructure layer? In this video, I had the chance to ask Sidney Morgan, a distinguished engineer in IT, about all this.
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.

Yangtze Repertory Theatre of America presents a new play inspired by a real-life murder that occurred in a small town in China. More…
Written, directed, and designed by K.K. Wong, 'Midnight Kill' is set in a rural Chinese farming village during the early 1970s, when China's Great Proletariat Cultural Revolution was at its height. Under the country's autocratic rule, extreme forms of collectivism, asceticism, and class warfare run rampant. In this crucible of passion, ideology, and deprivation, a married woman and a local teacher have been having an affair. The play opens with her murder, and then flashes back through their relationship, eventually revealing the motivations behind the killing. Performed in Mandarin Chinese with English subtitles.
"As the actors interact with each other and work to share this story, the spirit and tenacity in which they do so is something remarkable. Their presence and focus in bringing a significant time in history to life leaves the audience with chills. While it is so important to pay attention to the subtitles in this production, it is hard to tear your eyes away from the living story taking place on stage...Guaranteed to stop audiences in their tracks and keep the mind's wheels turning."

And then it came to my remembrance that according to Arthur Pyms narrative, Tsalal belonged to a group of islands which extended towards the west. Unless the people of Tsalal had been destroyed, it was possible that they might have fled into one of the neighbouring islands. We should do well, then, to go and reconnoitre that archipelago, for Tsalal clearly had no resources whatever to offer after the cataclysm.I spoke of this to the captain.
Yes, he replied, and tears stood in his eyes, yes, it may be so. And yet, how could my brother and his unfortunate companions have found the means of escaping? Is it not far more probable that they all perished in the earthquake?
Here Hunt made us a signal to follow him, and we did so.
After he had pushed across the valley for a considerable distance, he stopped.
What a spectacle was before our eyes!
There, lying in heaps, were human bones, all the fragments of that framework of humanity which we call the skeleton, hundreds of them, without a particle of flesh, clusters of skulls still bearing some tufts of haira vast bone heap, dried and whitened in this place! We were struck dumb and motionless by this spectacle. When Captain Len Guy could speak, he murmured,
My brother, my poor brother!
On a little reflection, however, my mind refused to admit certain things. How was this catastrophe to be reconciled with Pattersons memoranda? The entries in his note-book stated explicitly that the mate of the Jane had left his companions on Tsalal Island seven months previously. They could not then have perished in this earthquake, for the state of the bones proved that it had taken place several years earlier, and must have occurred after the departure of Arthur Pym and Dirk Peters, since no mention of it was made in the narrative of the former.
These facts were, then, irreconcilable. If the earthquake was of recent date, the presence of those time-bleached skeletons could not be attributed to its action. In any case, the survivors of the Jane were not among them. But then, where were they?
The valley of Klock-Klock extended no farther; we had to retrace our steps in order to regain the coast. We had hardly gone half a mile on the cliffs edge when Hunt again stopped, on perceiving some fragments of bones which were turning to dust, and did not seem to be those of a human being.
Were these the remains of one of the strange animals described by Arthur Pym, of which we had not hitherto seen any specimens ?
Hunt suddenly uttered a cry, or rather a sort of savage growl, and held out his enormous hand, holding a metal collar. Yes I a brass collar, a collar eaten by rust, but bearing letters which might still be deciphered. These letters formed the three following words:
TigerArthur Pym.
Tiger!the name of the dog which had saved Arthur Pyms life in the hold of the Grampus, and, during the revolt of the crew, had sprung at the throat of Jones, the sailor, who was immediately finished by Dirk Peters.
So, then, that faithful animal had not perished in the shipwreck of the Grampus. He had been taken on board the Jane at the same time as Arthur Pym and the half-breed. And yet the narrative did not allude to this, and after the meeting with the schooner there was no longer any mention of the dog. All these contradictions occurred to me. I could not reconcile the facts. Nevertheless, there could be no doubt that Tiger had been saved from the shipwreck like Arthur Pym, had escaped the landslip of the Klock-Klock hill, and had come to his death at last in the catastrophe which had destroyed a portion of the population of Tsalal.
But, again, William Guy and his five sailors could not be among those skeletons which were strewn upon the earth, since they were living at the time of Pattersons departure, seven months ago, and the catastrophe already dated several years back!
Three hours later we had returned on board the Halbrane, without having made any other discovery. Captain Len Guy went direct to his cabin, shut himself up there, and did not reappear even at dinner hour.
