about jeff and tricia raikes
Throughout our lives we have each had the good fortune to learn from exemplary role models. So to explain our shared enthusiasm and deep commitment to the work of the Raikes Foundation, we need to start with our earliest and most influential role models.
We grew up 1,700 miles apart, in very different settings – Tricia in the city in Seattle, Jeff on a farm near Ashland, Nebraska – but we were each raised by parents who believed in giving back to the community, and who lived their values in big and small ways every day. Whether it was Tricia accompanying her mom on fundraising drives in the neighborhood – Seattle Children's Hospital, March of Dimes, United Way – or Jeff helping his dad aid stranded travelers in a Nebraska snowstorm, we each grew up with a clear understanding of the importance of helping others and strengthening communities when we had the resources to do so.
We met as colleagues at Microsoft in the early 1980s, and we are proud to own the distinction of being the first couple to meet and marry at Microsoft. Our time at the company was thrilling, challenging and financially rewarding beyond our wildest dreams.
A valuable extension of our Microsoft experience was to meet many new and inspiring role models. Tricia built a fond relationship with Mary Gates, who encouraged her to get more engaged in the nonprofit world and join the board of the local Boys and Girls Club. We both spoke often with Bill and Melinda Gates about their interest in philanthropy, and Jeff later helped further their mission while serving as CEO of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. We also had the privilege of learning from Jeff's fellow Nebraskan, Warren Buffett, about the need to reinvest wealth back into society with a willingness to take smart risks for greater impact through philanthropy.
Thanks to the guidance of these and many other helpful peers and mentors, we launched the Raikes Foundation in 2002 as our vehicle to help others.
Our decision to focus our grantmaking on the needs of young people came from our most inspiring role models: our three children. As they grew, we watched each of them struggle with, and ultimately conquer, a range of childhood and adolescent challenges; but we often found ourselves searching for approaches and guidance on how to support them. We realized that if we were struggling to find effective ways to help our kids make the transition to adulthood, even with all of the resources at our disposal, millions of other young people had to be facing far more ominous challenges with far less assistance.
Our children have gone off to college and started careers, but we continue to be inspired and motivated by the many young people we are privileged to meet here in Seattle and across the country who are striving to become successful adults.
Young people are the ultimate role models for all of us at the Raikes Foundation. That is why empowering young people to transform their lives is our highest priority at the Raikes Foundation.

Jordan Galland's new movie is clearly about hipsters. But it looks kind of good anyway!
Tagline: "We're making a play about vampires. It's not like they're real … are they?"
Translation: We made a movie about hipsters. But distribute it anyway … will you?
The Verdict: It was just a few months ago that this indie production was shooting, but there's already a slickly produced trailer, made presumably to raise interest among distributors in a movie that — let's face it — is about hipsters. An aimless, bearded ladies' man gets hooked up by his doctor dad to direct a play in the East Village? The film's directed by Domino lead singer Jordan Galland, with music by Sean Lennon? So hipstery. So we really wanted to hate this trailer but were kind of won over by it nonetheless. It's funny; it's handsome to look at; it stars Artie Bucco from The Sopranos, Dustin Hoffman's kid, and Ralph Macchio. And it establishes the creeping horror of a once-legitimate neighborhood being overtaken by soulless, pale, black-clad, nocturnal monsters. You know, vampires.

Samsung has today won a significant victory in its patent battle with Apple, after an Australian court opted to overturn a ban on the sale of its flagship Galaxy tablet in the country.
Last month, Apple won an injunction preventing sales of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia, accusing Samsung's tablet of copying its touchscreen technology.
Samsung subsequently modified the tablet, leading to an Australian federal court unanimously agreeing to overturn the sales ban in time for the key Christmas shopping season in Australia.
"Samsung Electronics Australia is pleased with today's unanimous decision by the Federal Court to lift the preliminary injunction on sales of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1," the company said in a statement.
"We believe the ruling clearly affirms that Apple's legal claims lack merit."
Samsung will not be able to start selling the tablet immediately, as Justice Lindsay Foster granted a stay on the order until December 2, at 4pm local time (5am GMT).
Apple now has the right to appeal the verdict at the country's high court if it wants to try and extend the ban. The firm has not indicated as yet whether it will pursue that avenue.
The Australia case is one of the most high-profile in an ongoing legal battle between Apple and Samsung, with both accusing the other of infringing their technology patents.
Legal cases have been filed in various countries and Apple has also secured a ban on Galaxy Tab 10.1 sales in Germany, although Samsung has since launched a modified version of the product.
Samsung has also applied for a ban on sales of Apple's new iPhone 4S smartphone in Australia, Japan, France and Italy, after accusing Apple of copying its 3G technology.
> Samsung mocks Apple iPhone fans in new ad campaign - video
Despite winning the court verdict in Australia, analysts remain doubtful that Samsung's tablet products will be able to challenge Apple's market-leading iPads.
Song Myung-sub, an analyst at HI Investment & Securities in Seoul, told Reuters: "It's hard to expect the ruling to have a major positive impact on Samsung's tablet business or legal cases in other countries as Apple could appeal... and sales won't be restored anytime soon.
"Apple will continue to dominate the tablet market as Amazon (with the new Kindle Fire tablet) appears to be the only viable threat at the moment and other vendors, including Samsung, continue to struggle."

NICK BRUNO, Advertising Manager
The Ad Manager workshop is a special experience. Running an ad team and strategizing for the success of the paper is a tough job. This workshop focuses on providing ad managers with fresh ideas to meet their goals. What truly makes the workshop unique is the limit of around thirty-five attendees, all of them student ad managers at papers around the county. Therefore, there is plenty of opportunity to discuss issues directly with other students, and to hear exactly what's working, or perhaps not working, at their papers. This was special for me, as I participated in discussions that helped me generate numerous ideas for training and improving the efficiency of my ad team, as well as dealing with difficult situations as a manager. And by attending the workshop, I have established several professional and student contacts that I will continue to reach out to for issues/questions I may have in the future.

POWERbreathe uses the basic principles of resistance training. Just as you might use weights to strengthen your arm muscles, breathing in through POWERbreathe against the medium, variable resistance makes your breathing muscles work harder - thereby increasing their strength and endurance.
Within a few days of using this drug-free, easy-to-use hand-held device, your breathing muscles will feel stronger; within 3-weeks you'll feel less breathless; and within 4 weeks every-day activities, exercise and sports will feel easier.
- Drug-free & natural with no side effects or drug interactions
- Scientifically proven, pressure threshold training technique
- Calibrated inspiratory load (medium resistance)
- Adjustable 'medium' training resistance (up to 9 adjustable training levels)
- Resistor / training level indicator
- Fully washable design
Technical Specification:
Mouthpiece Material: Latex-free PVC
Use & Care
Simply put the nose-clip on so that it pushes your nostrils together and then breathe in through the POWERbreathe (use a little extra effort than you would to breathe normally), and the device will do the rest. Improvement in breathing efficiency can be seen in as little as 4-weeks. Comes with full instructions.
Laboratory proven training regimen:
- Twice a day simply breathe 30 times through the device against the adjustable resistance. It takes less than 5-minutes.
- As your breathing muscle strength improves, simply adjust and increase the resistance as you would with any other form of exercise.
Within a few days your inspiratory muscles will feel stronger; within 3-weeks you'll feel less breathless; and within 4 weeks activities will feel easier.
Your POWERbreathe will be exposed to saliva during use. We recommend that a few times a week your POWERbreathe should be soaked in warm water for about 10 minutes (see the POWERbreathe Manual for full details), but once a week POWERbreathe should be soaked in a mild cleansing solution instead of water, using these POWERbreathe Cleansing Tablets - only 1 tablet is required each time.
- POWERbreathe Classic Medium Resistance Inspiratory Muscle Trainer (blue, Fitness model)
- Nose clip
- Instructional DVD (approx: 35-mins)
- PVC storage pouch
- 4 cleansing tablets
User manual
If you have any doubts about the suitability of POWERbreathe, or you have a medical condition, please consult your doctor.
Inspiratory muscle training (breathing muscle training), such as training with POWERbreathe, is not recommended for patients with a history of spontaneous pneumothorax (a collapsed lung that was not due to traumatic injury e.g. broken rib), as it may lead to a recurrence of the condition. Following a traumatic pneumothorax and/or broken rib, POWERbreathe should not be used prior to full recovery.
Inspiratory muscle training is not suitable for asthma patients who have low symptom perception and who suffer from frequent sever exacerbations. Inspiratory muscle training is not suitable for anyone who has recently experienced a perforated eardrum. Anyone who is under the age of 16 should only use POWERbreathe with supervision from an adult.

Struggling to find space in your bathroom for both a storage unit and a basin?
If this sounds familiar, then Splashdirect would like to recommend the White Minimalist 800 Wall Mounted Basin Vanity Unit in a stunning White Gloss from Infinity. It benefits from having a polymarble basin, elegantly mounted on top of a waterproof MDF vanity uni and soft close cushioned drawers.
This wall hung vanity unit has a practical rectangular shape which will allow it to easily slot into most bathrooms and the basin also benefits from having a stylish integrated overflow.
The Benefits of Wall Hung Furniture:
Due to the compact nature, wall hung furniture is ideal for smaller bathrooms where space is a necessity. Taking up zero floor space also makes it a breeze to clean as you can simply sweep below the vanity unit, without having to work around tight crevices.
As they hang from the wall, they are also great for providing that minimalist look which is associated with modern interior design schemes. They are, therefore, ideal for making bathrooms look clean and streamlined.
What Else is Required?
This wall mounted vanity unit contains a single tap hole polymarble basin and has a stylish integrated overflow. It comes with all the bolts that allow you to easily secure it to the wall, but you may require the following items to complete your sink, all of which are sold separately:
Please note a bottle trap will also be required to ensure the sink works correctly.
This basin will fit any UK standard mono basin mixer tap and our selection of chrome taps will look stunning when sat against this modern vanity unit.

There are strong indications that terrorists are currently employing new tricks to beat security checks.
Among such moves is the recruitment of physically-challenged people to carry out their dastardly acts in some parts of the country.
The recruitment of these set of persons, as gathered, was to allow easy access into states like Lagos.
This came as the Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obaniko, yesterday in Lagos, described Boko Haram sect's declaration of Gwoza town in Borno state as an Islamic caliphate, as a 'temporary madness' that would
soon disappear, saying there would never be another republic within Nigeria.
Military sources hinted that following intelligence report on the use of people with disabilities by the Boko Haram sect, screening of physically challenged persons, particular those using tricycles had begun.
The disclosure as gathered, followed the confessional statement of the physically challenged man arrested recently at the Murtala Mohammed Airport in Lagos,
with combustive substance.
A military source, who spoke on condition of anonymity however assured that the Military was on top of the situation.

FOX 13 Salt Lake City | BY HOPE WOODSIDE AND ASHTON EDWARDS
They were two young boys who became friends while waiting for a new hearts; Teagan and Alex.
We recently checked in with Alex Homer, who is thriving after a long struggle with a heart defect.
At Fox Hollow Elementary School, 8-year-old Alex looks like just another student, but 18 weeks ago, his parents were told he'd need a series of surgeries.
During hospital stays, his classmates reached out.
"I remember she brought one of those bags completely filled with cards from all the people in my class," Alex's mom, Brynn Homer, said.
Alex and another boy with critical heart defects, Teagan Petitt, became friends.
They shared similar lives, pulling oxygen and carrying backpacks with life-saving medicine and long stretches in the hospital. Continue reading

Jersey Strikes Back
Site editors note: Randy Nostradamus Ray submitted this piece prior to Bonnaroo (before Ba…Roo…ce joined Phish on Sunday night) but it sat in an inbox during the pre-fest scramble…
Intrigued eyes drift over the incredible 2009 lineup, and one is momentarily transfixed by the first two names: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band and Phish. Neither seem remotely related in any way other than the fact that both feature dynamic icons who front bands known for their legendary live performances. But what else is there? Both prefer the same guitar? Both dont like hats? Both are from the East Coast? NEW YORK?
The continuing success of the Bonnaroo festival, now in its eighth year, is due to many factors, not least of which is its uncanny ability to showcase a wide variety of music. From jam to jazz to old school country to electronica to hip hop, the international cuisine on the Manchester artistic menu offers the attendee an eclectic feast. Bonnaroo is an often world music buffet, but it is also a very American music festival with heady tastes.
Indeed, since its origins as a festival focused on improvisation, and then expanding outwards to include all of the many genres which parallel, intersect, or dwell within another sonic universe, the music has evolved as has the festival goer. One thing remains the same: if it is not always the songs or the type of musician or even if youve ever heard two Europeans scratching records, its justwell, plain fun to be at Bonaroooooo.
However, during the years since 2002 that thousands of music lovers have flocked to see and hear the hundreds of bands on the Manchester, Tennessee farm, no one American community has been known to dominate the annual event. The hippie birth has spawned a wide variety of sights and sounds that never really circle any specific region. Until now.
Whereas Phish guitarist and lead vocalist Trey Anastasio was born in Fort Worth, Texas, both he and Bruce Springsteen were very much raised in the state of New Jersey. The Garden State gets a lot of grief due to the long and wide shadow of the neighboring Big Apple, and it can descend to epically low depths, i.e. Dont Jersey [insert your locale of choice], and linger within an overall attitude that Jersey just aint America, man.
Ahhhbut Jersey is, and whether its unwanted stepchild status will continue to endure, one never knows, but what is apparent is that the states reputation as a region that produces a wonderful dichotomya strong working class of fourth generation immigrants and a culturally elite community; an odd grab bag of blue-collared union workers and commuting white collars who travel into Manhattanis as American as anything else on the Eastern seaboards. Yes, but what is this essential Jersey-ness?
Look no further than Springsteen and Anastasio. One doesnt see America, the East Coast, a pair of post-immigrant success stories, or even a typical leader of the band. What one sees in 2009 is that both musicians appear to really enjoy their jobs. And that simple fact was certainly not always the case as both have gone through tumultuous years of fronting other bands away from their original groupsSpringsteens 10 + years away from the E Street Band, and Anastasios five years in the post-Phish wilderness.
By sheer coincidence, the two best concerts Ive ever attended featured these two musicians with their respective bands. They have both seemed to regain their groove once they went back to their Jersey roots (Springsteen reformed the E Street Band in 1999; Anastasio helped bring back Phish earlier in the current year in Hampton, Virginia). Time will tell whether to go back to ones roots worked, but, it seems like a solid choice.
The memorable 1985 gig featuring the Boss, as hes always called, was a performance by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band at an Oakland, California stadium that was attended by his parents and went on for nearly five hours of true bliss. Nothing much has changed. This band earns every cent they make, and dedicates itself to playing each song as if it is the first time youve heard this group, and they never want you to forget where and when you heard Bruce and the E Street Band. The 1985 concert is legendary for not only its individual performances, but the way that the group appeared to lift the entire Coliseum, and held it in their collective grasp for such a long time that night. One wonders where they got the initiative, drive, and energy.
These cats were workin it, and, again, I think of Jerseyits weird highway/freeway system, the little gas stations that appear out of nowhere, the brick recording studios, its beautiful cul de sacs, the random working class communities, and the people, always the sublime people, humbly going about their business doing what they do to make this such a great country. Yes, New York gets the well-deserved glory, but Jersey is the home of an essential American truth: if you work hard enough, and youre really good at it, you just might get rewarded with the true pearl of the American Dream: you, too, can be the Boss.
Oh, and Phish? Most memorable gig Ive seen them play? Does it matter? For every Phish fan, there is often a different response. I think Ive seen a show or two that could be considered transcendent, life changing, revolutionary, and spectacular in every way, but it is humorous to compare notes with any veteran fan of the bandnot all shows are legendary, and some that should be considered lofty are deemed overrated. Such is the life of a fan of bands that are known for their incendiary and mind-expanding live shows as the classic gigs held near and dear are often given too much thought and dissection.
But what can be agreed upon is that the critical moments of Trey Anastasios artistic development occurred when he went to New Jerseys Princeton Day School, essentially, a very creative well for a junior high student, and met his muses, including his longtime songwriting partner, Tom Marshall, that would help create his Gamehendge thesisan imaginary land filled with legendary places and characters, and used as the foundation for Anastasios Goddard College thesis, and the framework for his band known as Phish, which was actually formed and raised in Vermont after Anastasios Jersey upbringing.
And so we look again at the lineup of 2009 Bonnaroo musical choices, and we are overwhelmed with the wide variety of musicians and bands from numerous locales. We make up our little lists, circling here, crossing out there, and checking this and that, and
we know that whatever we miss, may be replaced by something equally fantastic, or maybe not. But one thing is true, that no matter what, the 2009 thread that weaves its way through the sublime tapestry was raised and crafted in one beleaguered American state. May the Garden State come out from behind the shadows and shout: Jersey Strikes Back!

Goth metal has always been a niche genre, but over the years, a few artists have found ways to give it Top 40 appeal. Evanescence has pulled off that trick with two multiplatinum albums: Fallen in 2004 and The Open Door in 2006, both of which unite loud, heavy guitars and drums with the ethereal voice of singer Amy Lee.
"Being inspired by classical — and in high school especially, classical and metal both — I remember having this cool realization that they were really similar. It's just different instrumentation," Lee tells Weekend Edition Saturday host Scott Simon. "I love the aggression of the guitars against that fragility that, no matter what, exists in a female voice." She adds, "I can't help but be a girl, though."
Evanescence made the classical-metal connection literal on The Open Door, which included a song based on a movement from Mozart's Requiem. This week, the band released its self-titled third album, which features harp playing by Lee in "Secret Door."
"If you listen to any of our records, especially the last two, there's a big spectrum of feelings," Lee says. "There are songs that are big, epic rock songs, but then there's moments that are soft and fragile."
A lot of people might call that head banging music: you know, screaming vocalists, shrieking songs. But listen to what follows:
AMY LEE: (Singing) Speak your mind, like I care...
SIMON: That's Amy Lee, lead singer of the band, Evanescence - a head-banger with an ethereal voice.
LEE: (Singing) You sail around my heart...
SIMON: That angelic voice against a thrashing guitar has made Evanescence a multi-platinum group with their first two albums, "Fallen" in 2004 and "The Open Door" in 2006. Now, the band has a new self-titled album out this week. Amy Lee of Evanescence joins us now to talk about it, all from Nashville. Thanks very much for being with us.
LEE: Thanks so much for having me.
SIMON: You know, one of the things that's made your band so successful is it's considered a kind of a niche genre of music - forgive the expression - and you've put some Top 40 pop and spunk into it.
LEE: Thanks.
SIMON: Let's play a clip from this new album if we could, "Lost in Paradise."
LEE: (Singing) As much as I'd like the past not to exist, it still does. And as much as I'd like to feel like I belong here, I'm just as scared as you...
SIMON: How do you go about blending - even when you're coming up with a song - blending what has been so oddly described as your ethereal, angelic voice, and all that guitar thrashing?
LEE: I don't know. I think they're really natural together. I like that. I love contrast in music. Being inspired by classical actually - in high school especially - classical and metal both, I remember having this cool realization that they are really similar. It's just different instrumentation. And I love the aggression of the guitars against that sort of fragility, that no matter what sort of exists in a female voice, at least for me. I can't help but be a girl though, so it's not like I have a choice.
SIMON: You're not only the lead singer, you also write lyrics for a lot of the songs, play the keyboard. And on this album, is it the first time you've been heard as a harp? Do we say harper?
LEE: Yes. Harpist.
LEE: I did a cover for a song from "A Nightmare Before Christmas," the Danny Elfman-Tim Burton thing. And we did "Sally's Song." So, when we did that, I did do harp on that song. And I actually got to play the harp on "The Tonight Show," which was really cool. I don't think that happens that often.
SIMON: No. As generalization, they don't say, and a great harp player. Harpist, forgive me.
LEE: Yeah. Shredding on the harp, Amy Lee.
SIMON: Let's listen to a little bit of your harp, if we could. This is from "Secret Door."
LEE: (Singing) Don't need to understand, too lost to lose. Don't fight my tears, 'cause they feel so good...
SIMON: Is there something you hear, some resemblance between heavy metal and classical?
LEE: Well, you know what, I was really, really inspired by Mozart's Requiem. So much so actually that on the open door, we took part of it, Lacrimosa, and made it into an Evanescence song. Like, we took a piece of it and put, you know, a band around it and my voice on top. I think it turned out to be a really, really interesting combination of those things that's sort of, like, the clearest picture of what I'm talking about.
LEE: (Singing) Blame it on me, lift up your screen. Nothing can hold you back now...
SIMON: You're going on tour with this new album, right?
LEE: Yes, worldwide.
SIMON: I have not been to one of your concerts. If I were to go to one, what should I expect?
LEE: Ah, to get your socks rocked off. I know you love that. I can tell.
SIMON: I'm not wearing socks today, OK. I just thought I'd check. My shoes will do.
LEE: We have a good time. We're really looking forward to touring again. It's been a long time. You know, our music is very dynamic. If you listen to any of our records, I think especially our last two, there's a big spectrum of feelings. There is definitely the songs that are big, epic rock songs, but then there's moment that are soft, you know, and fragile.
SIMON: Yeah. What song should we go out on from this new album?
LEE: Our second single. Why don't we go with that one.
SIMON: OK. And this is...
LEE: It's "My Heart is Broken."
SIMON: And what can you tell us about this song?
LEE: Actually, I wrote it on the harp, and as we started working on it with the entire band, it got faster and faster and faster. And we went into the studio at that tempo and it was like, OK, time to record the harp. And I just was like, this is not possible for me anymore. So, now, it's a stunning piano part.
LEE: Enjoy.
SIMON: All right. We will.
SIMON: Amy Lee. She is lead singer of Evanescence. Their self-titled album out this week. She joined us from Nashville. Thanks so much.
LEE: Thank you.

When Michael Harrison became general director of the Baltimore Opera Company a year and a half ago, he was told by the board that hired him to improve the company's quality.
"All of us projected what we hoped would be a major increase in quality," Harrison says. "I came here with the understanding that the company was positioned to take a major step forward."
Many operagoing Baltimoreans would agree that Harrison has begun to make good on that progress. Last year's striking performance of Strauss' "Salome" was considered the best production of anything in the company's history. While Harrison's casting decisions have not been any more consistently successful than those of his predecessors, his willingness to pay for more rehearsal time and for better conductors has meant a much-improved standard in the orchestra pit. These successes have exerted a pull at the box office: The BOC's recent production of "Carmen" sold 97 percent of available seats -- a record for four performances -- and brought in more than $123,000 in tickets -- another record.

Swimming lessons are in progress at the elephant seal viewing areas at Piedras Blancas. But no one is teaching. It's all trial and error as the weaned pups, now called weaners, teach themselves to swim.
It's surprising that an animal that spends about 80 percent of its life in, and deep under, water isn't able to swim when it's born, and just as surprising that its mother doesn't even take the pup near the water before she abruptly heads to sea a month after giving birth.
All she does is feed the pup her rich milk for about a month. The pup can gain as much as 10 pounds a day. The mother can lose as much as 20 pounds a day, as she doesn't eat during birthing and nursing, and by the end of the nursing period the milk can get up to 60 percent fat.
That fat is what the pup survives on after the mother mates and leaves, and it's important that there's enough fat to last until the weaner can swim well enough to set out to sea to forage on its own.
Many of the weaners have left by now, but there are still some bobbing about along the shoreline and among the rocks, safe from predators such as great white sharks and orcas. They blow bubbles, float — sometimes upside down — and take shallow dives. They often yell as they play and as they come out of the water onto the beach.
Visitors ask what they're yelling about, but we don't know. Do they miss their mothers? Are they hungry? Are they having fun? Or is it just for the yell of it?
The weaners look different from the way they did when their mothers left. They were black and roundly fat. Now they have shed their black birthday suits and become silvery gray, and they have lost a lot of weight. Not all of them will make it because not all of them had enough fat on them when their mothers left. So this time of year there are always some dead babies on the beach, being cleaned up by the gulls and, when there are few people around, the turkey vultures drop in.
Those who do make it set out on long and perilous journeys, heading north to learn how to find their first meals. Although they snuggle and play together on the beach, they travel alone in the sea and somehow know where to go and when and where to return when their first adventures are over.
Older seals are returning to the beach now — juveniles from about 2 to 6 years old — and females who had their pups early in the season. They are coming in to molt, first in the musical chair-like pattern that brings different age groups in at different times to shed a layer of skin and hair every spring and summer.

Movienet takes 'Uncle Boonmee' for Germany
Germany is the last major European territory to get the filmBERLIN -- Munich-based distributor Movienet has picked up German rights on Apichatpong Weerasethakul's Palme d'Or Winner "Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives" from sales agent The Match Factory.
Germany is the last major European territory to fall for "Uncle Boonmee," a whimsical musing on life and resurrection set in rural Thailand. Out of Cannes, Match Factory closed deals with France (Pyramide Distribution), Spain (Karma Films), Italy (BIM Distribuzione) and the U.K. (New Wave Films) and many others.
Movienet recently picked up another Match Factory title, the Spanish drama "Me Too" from director Antonio Naharro. Both "Uncle Boonmee" and "Me Too" will have their German premieres at the Munich Film Festival later this month.

In the wake of the release of 400,000 documents by Wikileaks, the United Nations has called on U.S. President Barack Obama to order a full investigation of crimes committed against the Iraqi people following the invasion and occupation that was directed by George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.
UN special rapporteur on torture Manfred Nowak declared that the Obama administration had a legal and moral obligation to fully investigate credible claims of US forces' complicity in torture. Nick Clegg, the deputy Prime Minister in the UK has, in the wake of the recent revelations, also called for an investigation into the reports of mass torture disclosed in the newly released documents...

DAT 326 states he was told to lay down on his stomach with his hands behind his back, which is when the Iraqi soldiers allegedly stepped, jumped, urinated and spit on him.
Since the alleged torture was committed by Iraqi forces, the US quickly dropped the case: "Due to no allegation or evidence of US involvement, a US investigation is not being initiated," the report said.
A review of the leaked documents reveals more than 1,000 allegations of abuse committed by Iraqi security forces. Not all of them are credible, as some detainees showed no physical evidence of abuse, while others changed their stories during multiple interrogations.
But hundreds of them – like "DAT 326" – are supported by medical evidence and other corroboration. Those reports demonstrate a clear pattern of abuse and torture in Iraqi jails, one that a high-level Pentagon directive barred US forces from investigating.

Twelve weeks ago the Bureau of Investigative Journalism was given access to the biggest leak of military documents in history.
These documents formed a database of nearly 400,000 military logs recorded over six years of the Iraq war and covering the years 2004 to 2009.
There are over 37 million words used to recount military significant actions that took place across the entire country. This material provides an unrivalled portrait of one of the most controversial wars of the modern age.
For the first time the files reveal just how much the American military detailed the escalating violence in Iraq, and how this contrasts markedly to what the politicians said in public. This is the story behind the pronouncements – the uncensored detail Washington did not want us to know...

The Link Between PTSD and Suicide
The occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan are continuing by the use of exhausted troops who are sent to war over and over again on multiple deployments. Common sense as well as the Pentagon's own study tells us that increased exposure to traumatic events increases the likelihood of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). A dangerous symptom of PTSD is suicidal thoughts and tendencies.
Last week, in an effort to de-stigmatize the issue of mental health within the military, the American Psychiatric Association initiated a call to reverse the policy of the President not sending condolence letters to families who have lost a service member due to suicide. This is one step in addressing an overall military culture that stigmatizes those who seek help for mental or emotional distress, but there is a lot more work to do.

WASHINGTON — Law enforcement and counterterrorism officials, citing lapses in compliance with surveillance orders, are pushing to overhaul a federal law that requires phone and broadband carriers to ensure that their networks can be wiretapped, federal officials say.
The officials say tougher legislation is needed because some telecommunications companies in recent years have begun new services and made system upgrades that caused technical problems for surveillance. They want to increase legal incentives and penalties aimed at pushing carriers like Verizon, AT&T, and Comcast to ensure that any network changes will not disrupt their ability to conduct wiretaps.
An Obama administration task force that includes officials from the Justice and Commerce Departments, the F.B.I. and other agencies recently began working on draft legislation to strengthen and expand the Communications Assistance to Law Enforcement Act, a 1994 law that says telephone and broadband companies must design their services so that they can begin conducting surveillance of a target immediately after being presented with a court order...

These costs are the main factors driving 58 percent of the American public, including over 70 percent of Democrats and a majority of independent voters, to question whether these wars are justified.
It seems unbelievable, and certainly unconscionable, to keep these facts smothered in fog, when they need to be communicated in every blog, every leaflet, every speech given by anti-war activists.

After Service, Veteran Deaths Surge
In the six years after Reuben Paul Santos returned to Daly City from a combat tour in Iraq, he battled depression with poetry, violent video games and, finally, psychiatric treatment. His struggle ended last October, when he hung himself from a stairwell. He was 27.
The high suicide rate among veterans has already emerged as a major issue for the military and the families and loved ones of military personnel. But Mr. Santos's death is part of a larger trend that has remained hidden: a surge in the number of Afghanistan and Iraq veterans who have died not just as a result of suicide, but also because of vehicle accidents, motorcycle crashes, drug overdoses or other causes after being discharged from the military.
An analysis of official death certificates on file at the State Department of Public Health reveals that more than 1,000 California veterans under 35 died between 2005 and 2008. That figure is three times higher than the number of California service members who were killed in the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts over the same period...

Tasweek Real Estate Development and Marketing, a UAE-based real estate firm, is working on two major projects in Morocco, with construction commencing in the next year.
"We already have the approvals to do a healthcare city," confirmed Masood Al Awar, CEO, Tasweek.
"The components are there with residential, hospitality and a hospital. It will be in Marrakech," he added.
The $40m Marrakech Health Care City will be up to 21,000m2 in size, including a 160-bed private hospital, a 40-room boutique hotel and 56 residential apartments.
Al Awar said the project will take around two years to be complete. Tasweek is also developing a $20m golf residential complex which will have 96 apartments on a 35,000m2 plot of land.
