Germany to seek ban of far-right party
BERLIN (AP) — German security officials are trying again to ban the country's only significant far-right party, after meticulously collecting new evidence in an effort to avoid a repeat of the debacle caused when they tried to ban it in 2003.
The interior ministers of Germany's 16 states unanimously recommended Wednesday pursuing a new ban of the National Democratic Party on allegations it promotes a racist, xenophobic, and anti-Semitic agenda in violation of the country's constitution. The ban would have to be imposed by the Federal Constitutional Court, the only institution capable of banning a party in Germany.
Under former Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, the court a decade ago rejected an attempt to ban the party after it turned out paid government informants within the NPD, as it known by its German initials, were partially responsible for the evidence against the party.
The failed attempt seriously embarrassed the government and produced a spike in support for the NPD, which it rode to parliaments in two states in 2004 and 2005. That gave them access to state funding — about €1.2 million ($1.6 million) a year — which they used to bolster election advertising.
"It is obscene that the NPD can finance propaganda material with taxpayers' money," Ralf Jaeger, the interior minister of North Rhine-Westphalia state, said during a televised news conference. The party's ideology lays the ground for violence against minorities, leaving no choice but to seek a ban, Jaeger said.
Still, opponents of a ban note that membership in the NPD has been dropping, with 6,300 people in the party in 2011 compared to 6,600 in 2010. And despite its occasional successes in economically-depressed eastern German states, the NPD is marginalized at a national level — winning only 1.5 percent of the vote in the most recent federal elections in 2009; well below the 5 percent needed to sit in Parliament.
"There is the political risk that a party which is clearly losing ground will be resuscitated by such proceedings," federal Interior Minister Hans-Peter Friedrich said.
Friedrich voiced confidence that the intelligence gathered on the party is "good" and "most likely" sufficient to achieve a ban, but the minister reiterated the federal government's fear that the proceedings could bring the party back into the spotlight for years, ultimately strengthening it.
After the state interior ministers' recommendation, state governors are meeting in Berlin on Thursday and expected to follow suit. That paves the way for the Upper House of Parliament, where the states are represented, to vote for seeking a ban when it meets on Dec. 14.
While Chancellor Angela Merkel has expressed reservations about seeking a new ban, it is widely assumed that the federal government will follow the states' decision and join the process, though it is not necessary. Officials say a first court hearing is not likely before next spring and a decision from the court is very unlikely before next September's federal elections.
Even though talk of a ban has been simmering for years, it wasn't until the crimes of a murderous band of neo-Nazis calling itself the National Socialist Underground, or NSU, came to light that the calls became widespread.
The NSU is suspected of killing nine men of immigrant backgrounds and a policewoman between 2000 and 2007 — operating under the radar of German authorities who blamed the killings on organized crime rather than racist violence.
It was discovered only last year when two main members, Uwe Mundlos and Uwe Boenhardt, were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide after a bungled bank robbery. A third suspected member, Beate Zschaepe then turned herself in and has now been charged with the murders and other crimes.
Even there has been no formal link made between the NPD and the NSU, the case brought a new focus on the far-right in Germany.
The arrest of the NPD's former spokesman in Thuringia, Ralf Wohlleben, in November 2011 on suspicion of aiding the NSU by providing the core group with a gun and ammunition helped reinforce the calls for a ban. He was charged last month with nine counts of accessory to murder.
In order to avoid the problems of informants, officials say almost all of the information collected in the current investigation is in the public record, including details from the NPD's own literature, Internet postings, and documented criminal activities such as the conviction in 2009 of an NPD politician for defacing a Holocaust memorial.
A federal judge asked for a legal assessment of the case for a ban by the state of Lower Saxony reported back to authorities last week that "an overall review shows the goals of the NPD to be incompatible with the liberal democratic order of the constitution," Der Spiegel magazine reported.
He concluded a ban attempt would have a better than 50 percent chance of success with the Federal Constitutional Court.
NPD leader Holger Apfel said at a separate news conference that he was "absolutely convinced that ... all these allegations will collapse like a house of cards," predicting it will end in "a giant fiasco" for those who have launched it.
Apfel said that even if the Germany's top court orders a ban, the NPD would appeal to the European Court of Human Rights.

Billionaire investor Warren Buffett, wielding his new-found influence inside the Beltway, is starting to tout candidates for President Barack Obama's cabinet.
Buffett has been a darling of the Obama White House for his support for higher taxes on the wealthy. The head of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. repeated this position in an op-ed in the New York Times on Monday calling for a minimum tax on people making over $1 million.
Now Buffett wants J.P. Morgan Chase & Co /quotes/zigman/272085 /quotes/nls/jpm JPM Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon to replace outgoing Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner.
Buffett said Dimon would be able to calm stormy financial markets.
"If we did run into problems in markets, I think he would actually be the best person you could have in the job," Buffett said, in an interview with Charlie Rose.
Dimon would also have the gravitas to deal with international issues like the European debt and banking crisis and China trade policy, he added.
"World leaders would have confidence in him," Buffett said.
Buffett downplayed the multibillion-dollar trading loss at J.P. Morgan from derivative trading at a London unit that emerged last spring.
Every large organizations has some workers who "go off the reservation sometimes," he said.
Dimon's name has surfaced from time to time in regard to the Treasury post.
Since the election, many reports have said Obama is considering moving White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew over to Treasury. Other names mentioned include Roger Altman, chairman of Evercore and a former Treasury official in the Clinton administration, and Gary Gensler, who is chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Reasons to Rent Camera Equipment
No comments · Posted by admin in Gadgets, Hardware
Sometimes several photographers compete with each other to supersede others and get the best shot of an event. Such situation normally occurs while covering a wildlife happening or a sporting event when a large number of photographers gather at a point and use the best equipments to get the best images of their life. Moreover in such situations where several professional photographers have gathered with their costly camera gears it becomes necessary to have good equipment to impress others, even if you can't afford it. Most of the photographers in Philadelphia area, at such occasions go to rent camera equipments as most of the good equipments that is used in photography are not affordable to everyone. One very good place to do that is http://www.lenslends.com/.
Though some of them who are paid by the big professional houses can have costly gears with the courtesy of their employer, others can't afford to get them. People who rent their camera equipment are aware that this is the only source from where they can get that costly equipment for such events. Some of the other reasons for which they rent photography equipments is provided hereunder for your consideration.
Very high price: Most of the good quality camera equipments are very highly priced that even a top class professional photographer in Philadelphia area can not afford to buy it. Apart from the high price this equipment is not used
very often as it's usually used at some special occasions only. Then what is the fun of spending such a high amount of money on them. They will be more affordable even if you pay good rent for using them for a few days.
Supporting equipment: While shooting an event professional photographers normal carry more than one camera with them to have a standby arrangement with them, in case of any emergency. Instead of buying a standby camera they normally go to rent camera equipment for this purpose. They may or may not use the second camera but its presence ensures them not to worry, if one fails to work.
Trial before buying one: Some of the photographers also use rental camera equipments to have their trial before buying them. If you can afford to buy any photographic equipment even then you may not want to buy it without knowing about their effectiveness and rental equipments positively provides them this opportunity. Moreover rental equipments also allows you to wait till their market is high to buy them at reasonable price.
Immediate replacement: Photographers in Philadelphia area usually go for rental camera equipments whenever they are unable to set their damaged equipment at the time of covering some important event. It is one of the best options you can have available at this situation, instead of missing the coverage of the event.
Thus whether you are a professional photographer or just an amateur, renting camera equipment is more beneficial to you. You need not make excuses of not having suitable equipments for any occasion as you can rent them easily. You can use the rental photography equipment of your choice for any event in a cost effective manner.
Film Lighting: Making The Scene
No comments · Posted by admin in General Tech
Having the right Film Lighting Equipment can make or break the success of a recording and is an essential part of the recipe.
As with the human eye a camera captures images through light. Depending on what is being filmed and what the director is trying to achieve will affect the lighting design that is implemented. Film Lighting Equipment is used to provide a specific mood, emotion and atmosphere and without it, it is not possible to see anything clearly.
Broadcast Lighting is particularly needed in order to get proper exposure. Shooting a scene without any light will make the shot underexposed in the same way in which a camera being used in the dark without a flash would. Not only would the shot be too dark there would be a severe lack of detail with the worst possible scenario resulting in both the actors and the props on set being unrecognisable. Too much light on the other hand has the reverse effect and you end up with an overexposed shot that is too bright, washed out and in some cases blindingly white.
In order to ensure that the Broadcast Lighting is suited to the shot the cinematographer and the lighting team utilize a whole range of production equipment. There is a large amount of lighting equipment available suitable for a whole variety of videoing situations. Full lighting kits come in a range of sizes and feature standing lights and mounted studio lights. Some kits including the Datavision DVS-LEDGO-600BCLK Bi Colour Lighting Kit also come with a portable light stand and a carry case included within the price.
In addition to using lighting to create mood and emotion lighting is also used for aesthetic purposes. Not only can it be used to improve the skin tone of the actors featuring in the recording it can be used to both hide flaws as well as flaunting specific areas. Soft lighting tends to be used to make beauty shots as harsh light often results in higher levels of contrast which are less pleasing to the eye.
Another reason why artificial lighting is used is due to the fact that it can stimulate different times of day meaning film directors don't need to wait for a certain time to be able to shoot a specific scene. Lighting equipment can make it look like morning, afternoon or evening and can even be used to enhance the atmosphere for example making the winter air look colder or making the sun appear hotter than it really is.
Buy Instagram Followers – Finding The Best Service
No comments · Posted by admin in Internet Marketing, Social Media
Although it is very common place to utilize the services of a company that will help you build your YouTube channel, or even your Facebook account, there are very few companies right now that actually will offer to help you build your Instagram followers. It could be because Instagram is relatively new. This online video sharing and image sharing website has only been around since 2010, not allowing for very much time to create businesses that cater to this need. Fortunately, in the last year or so, many businesses have begun to provide these services, and do so at exceptionally low rates. If you are wanting to expand your presence on Instagram for your business, using one of these companies is essential to your success. The key is to find a business that will be able to offer these services for an affordable price, yet also provide you with the real Instagram followers that can potentially lead to sales on your website. Let's look at a few strategies you can use to successfully buy interactive Instagram followers starting today.
Why You Need Followers
In the same way that people have subscribers on YouTube, and those that follow them on Facebook, people that have Instagram accounts also want to increase the number of followers that they have. If this account was created purely for social reasons, it is perfectly understandable why people will build their follower base on their own. However, if you are thinking about using social media to your advantage, to generate traffic to your products and services via the followers on your Instagram account, you need to find a viable and reliable solution for consistently adding followers on a regular basis. The larger this grows, the more likely it will be that you will generate regular sales from this additional traffic.
Best Companies To Use
There is no one answer to this question, simply because if you are building your followers for the sole purpose of increasing your revenues, it really depends upon the type of product that you're selling. For instance, if it is in the area of weight loss, cleansing, skin care, or another type of product that is sought after by people on a regular basis, it will probably be easy to sell these products regardless of the background of the individuals that are following you. If it is a very specific type of product, like expensive golf clubs or diamond rings, you might not be able to move that type of product without advertising directly to people interested in those products. Therefore, choosing the best company really comes down to a process of trial and error, a process that can be streamlined by using the following suggestions.
Choosing The Best Company
When you buy Instagram followers, you should know that these individuals are following you to receive your free videos and images. They are there primarily for social purposes, not to be sold to. That being said, there is power in numbers. The sheer volume of followers that you will receive from services that will build your Instagram account for you may lead to eventual sales simply by adding thousands of followers every week. Also, since adding followers is so cost effective, as little as $10 for 1000 of them, you can quickly determine if this type of marketing is right for you based upon the results that will occur. Essentially, the company that provides you with followers at the lowest price, that lead to actual sales, is the one that you want to stick with.
Social media is quickly becoming a very popular way to market to people worldwide. As long as you can generate a significant amount of followers on your Instagram account, you may quickly see an increase in your overall sales. When you buy Instagram followers, make sure that you track the number of followers that you get, and also monitor the sales that you make. This will help you determine whether or not this is working for the products and services that you sell, and hopefully, it will improve your bottom line.

3 Simple SEO Rules You Should Always Follow
No comments · Posted by admin in Internet Marketing
Search engine optimization (SEO) is a powerful web marketing system which helps increase your website's visibility. SEO techniques help bring the online traffic you desire and thus enable your website to be ranked higher than millions of others in search engine results. However, it is not an easy task as search engines are now more advanced and require you to work hard to achieve the top rank. I'm going to share some basic SEO rules today for your convenience.
3 Basic Rules of SEO
As a website owner, you must have a little knowledge about SEO and should read many different articles and blogs talking about the latest and most modern SEO techniques available. However, before you make a jump to using expert SEO techniques, here are some basic rules and elements of good SEO, that you should follow:.
- Quality linking: If content is King, then link is Queen. Build a network of quality links around your website and remember, the purpose of link building is not quantity, but quality. One good and trustworthy link is better than a hundred links of poor quality.
- Search engine friendly URLs: Always clearly name the URLs with your main keywords. Also, ensure that the URLs are simple and easy to understand.
- Avoid excess Flash: Flash elements within your webpage may look pretty and fancy, but actually do little to improve SEO. Though it may add to the user experience of a website, placing it on the main navigational path of a website can hurt your SEO efforts.
Is your website following these basic rules? If so, then you and your website are on the path to a successful SEO.
Apps that can communicate touch, taste and smell: A taste of what's to come in 2014
No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized
Creators of websites and applications more often than not term their creations as providing a rich and embellishing experience to the users. Though the design and overall look and feel, the captivating layouts and interactive nature of these creations may be called as a treat for the senses, the truth is that they are a treat only for eyes and ears and nothing more.
Coming out from mostly a glass panel and a speaker, online & digital media based entertainment has mostly to do with seeing and hearing. Thus it does not give the user a complete sense of a make-believe reality. Studies and experiments the world over has time and again proved that more than half of communication that humans are not verbal in nature. This has led to scientists increasingly trying to devise ways of being able to communicate through the other three senses namely taste, smell and touch.
The professor teaching pervasive computing at the City University of London, asked this question over an iPhone to a person standing on the other side of the room as to what does the person smell? The person at the other end replies back saying that the scent of melon is significant and it was coming out from a tiny instrument piece attached to the person's iPhone and was actually triggered by the professor from the other end.
The professor agrees and tells that these instruments are selling more than 10000 units a month harbouring the era of bringing smell into the social communication platform. The technology itself is in the early part of its adoption curve though and the device that is responsible for the melon scent bears resemblance to an inkjet printer in that it contains a melon "smell sachet". When the liquid in it responsible for the scent finishes you need to get another sachet as a replacement.
This is not something that is new technology though, since in 1999 there was a story running on the front cover of the famous wired magazine that talked about a company called Digiscents that had come up with a USB compatible personal scent synthesizer that worked on the computer called the iSmellDigiscents. When this technology was invented back then, it looked more of a marketing pitch but is contextual nowadays with all the smartphones with ultra-high processing power and superfast connection speed bringing in all sorts of possibilities on the forefront.
Professor Cheok, as he his famously known as, has got critical acclaim for his funny projects in the past like "hugging pyjamas" that can be worn as a suit and can be used to hug a person virtually and remotely. There are some other fun projects of his as well, like small haptic rings that can make someone else sense a squeeze on their ring if the other person squeezes theirs over the internet. This looks a lot like virtual handholding of sorts. Yet another project of his involves a device that consists of electrodes and triggers the taste receptors on tongue thus creating an artificial sense of taste in the brain.
There have also been certain advancements in mobile technology with respect to installation of apps on pc without android emulator for playing that favourite mobile game on your desktop PC. Some other projects along these lines are also being carried out in the National University of Singapore that are about creating a digital lollipop that makes the tongue artificially experience the taste of salt, sweet, bitter and sour things.

The only expense that you should have when you are trying to rank YouTube videos is when you buy YouTube views. This strategy works very well for not only ranking purposes, but motivating people to follow your channel. Essentially, the more views that you have, the more popular you will appear to be in the eyes of both Google and those that find your videos, which will indirectly lead to increased sales and profits.
Finding YouTube Views For Less
There are a couple different ways that you can increase the number of views that you have on your YouTube videos. The first one is to create a viral video that millions of people will share with their friends and family members. The second way to increase the number of views on your videos is to join networks that will reward you for watching other videos. When you watch a video on the network, someone will also watch one of yours, thus increasing the number of views that you get each day. The third, and most effective way, to increase your YouTube views is to purchase them. There are companies that are dedicated solely to increasing views on your YouTube videos. You can purchase as many views as you want, and can often have them delivered in as little as a day. The easiest way to find the most inexpensive YouTube view providers is to search on the web. There will be several companies in the top listings when you search for "buy YouTube views". Simply compare the prices, and services that they offer, and choose the most appropriate one for your needs.
If you decide to buy YouTube views for your videos, you are making a decision that could ultimately increase your business's bottom line. The more views that you have, the higher your video will rank in the search engines, and the higher probability you have of obtaining subscribers that are motivated to join because of your apparent popularity. Hopefully this information on getting YouTube views for less will allow you to get more targeted traffic, and earn more money online.

Buy Instagram Followers – Finding The Best Prices
Internet marketing has come quite a long way over the last few years. Although people have been using the Internet to find information, purchase products, and interact with each other through social media, very few people realize the benefit of using social media networks to generate revenue for their business. Interacting socially is commonplace in our world today. Most people that own smartphones are constantly staring at their screens, typing away, texting and sharing images and videos. One of the best ways that you can generate targeted visitors online is through Instagram. Although this company is extremely young, it has millions of users, all of which could become long-term clients or customers. In order to build your followers, you can buy them from reputable businesses online. However, finding the lowest prices can be quite a chore. In this article, we will look at a few strategies for purchasing Instagram followers at the lowest possible prices and still get the best results.
Comparison Shopping
The first thing you'll want to do is search for "buy Instagram followers" on your web browser. The results will show you several companies that offer this type of service. Essentially, you are allowing these companies to build your followers for you for a reasonable price in most cases. Although most of these companies are quite young, many of them have stellar reviews that have been left by happy clients that have used their services. Based upon what you read, and the prices that they charge, you can make a logical decision in regard to your advertising budget. If there is a company that charges an extremely low price, yet does not have many positive reviews or testimonials, you may want to pay a little extra for a company that seems to be providing exceptional services for their clients. Using this comparison shopping technique, you will actually save money when you buy Instagram followers by simply using someone that is producing results, even if it is for a few dollars more.
Social Signals
Instead of visiting the websites of companies that will create Instagram followers for you, you might want to search the web for forums or other social media platforms that are currently talking about these companies. In most cases, you can find excellent reviews on Internet marketing forums that are discussing different ways to generate traffic. In most cases, they will be honest about their experiences. Similar to testimonials that you will read, the posts made by actual customers will give you an inside view of how the company operates, and the results that were achieved. By doing a little bit of research, you can quickly ascertain whether or not the company will be worth your money if you are thinking about purchasing Instagram followers.
When you buy followers on instagram, you should never choose the first company that you find. By doing comparison shopping, and looking at the comments made on other websites about these companies, you can make a quick decision in regard to which one you should use. This is the best way to maximize your advertising dollars, especially when you want to buy Instagram followers in an attempt to increase the traffic to your websites today.

The biennial Manchester International Festival is one of the sceptered isle's more outstanding cultural happenings, and like the team of non-parochial cultural types we are, DiS has spent the last few weeks infiltrating the cream of the festival's musical events. Here is a review. A really long review. A really, really long review.
Kraftwerk, Manchester Velodrome, July 2
First things first: ambient light seepage did wreak some low-level havoc with the in-theory dream combination of Kraftwerk, 3D projections, the Velodrome and (in particular) support act Steve Reich. Nonetheless, when sundown finally came about two thirds of the way through the krautbleep behemoths set, those of us who'd located a pair of 3D glasses were able to squeal in irony-free delight as some giant pixellated pills floated slowly towards our puppyishly overexcited faces. And it was weirdly thrilling, despite these 3D segments looking as though they'd been knocked together on a Commodore 64 by someone who still thinks of (naff Eighties kid-slaying TV show) Knightmare as the zenith of virtual reality achievement.
Oh, the music? Well, y'know...pretty flawless, as you'd expect. And a hugely generous set, all things considered: 'The Man-Machine', 'Autobahn', 'Computer Love', 'The Model', a tub-thumpingly politicised 'Radioactivity' and of course 'Tour De France', during which the - erm - Great British cycling team trundle out and do a few laps to a sort of Mexican wave of warmly appreciative WTF?-age. It's a hatstand moment, but a memorable one, and it actually does a nice job of uniting the two halves of the crowd, making a feature of the area separating the seated butty-munchers and us hardcore überdoods in the standing pit.
Sweat-soaked, over-lit and under-crowded, it wasn't a gig without its problems. However, the solid volume hike for Ralf Hütter's men after the whispery Steve Reich opening, coupled with the fact that Kraftwerk's mesmeric electro-loops could easily hold our attention through unfolding Armageddon, made for a pretty triumphant opening to Manchester International Festival 2009. A palpable wave of smugness followed those cyclist around the arena: regardless of whether it was actually the greatest show ever or not, we knew we'd all be able to annoy loads of people later by saying "I was there". (Mark Powell)
Anthony And The Johnsons, Manchester Opera House, July 3
Antony tells us that he has recently been dreaming of mountains; vast ranges, tough as diamonds. He wonders aloud why his muses have shifted from intangible, ineffable things to those that are giant, immutable. Tonight, he explains, he wanted to explore what it would feel like to be inside a mountain or crystal – and glances up at a geometric pendant of white fabric that hangs from the ceiling like a chunk of quartz or core of ice. This kite structure, by artist Carl Robertshaw, forms the centrepiece of a scenography created especially for these two shows, a set design that reflects Antony's preoccupations with our earth – its elements, its vulnerability, its inexplicable terrain.
But first; from the beginning, and 'For Today I Am A Boy'. Standing behind a painted silkscreen and robed in linen and netting, Antony barely materialises. While his body seems to vanish, reappear and shift perspective, his voice – that quivering hum, that owlish tongue – is certain as stalactite, lyrical and indelible. Above him swim schools of green fins, their shapes being drawn and redrawn by lighting designer Paul Normandale's laser show. Antony spends a great deal of time watching these various spirited movements; during his desolate cover of Beyoncé's 'Crazy In Love', a pendulum of lime light swings from right to left, its beam splintering into emerald arrows as it sears the floor. For 'Another World', hundreds of hot, red embers fleck the darkness. He gazes at the crimson rain.
Having been obscured by a series of veils for most of tonight's performance, the players of Manchester Camerata are finally revealed during the foreboding coda of 'Her Eyes Are Beneath The Ground' – and sweep into a querulous, set-stealing 'Cripple And The Starfish'. Prismatic colours scatter into hundreds and thousands against Robertshaw's diamond. "I am very happy; so please hit me," Antony chokes. "I am very, very happy; so please hurt me."
We leave feeling... I don't know. As though we must do something. As though we have a responsibility. (Lauren Strain)
Elbow and The Hallé – Bridgewater Hall, 8 July
Elbow's paradoxically heart-wrenching and heart-warming tunes regularly draw on additional instrumentation for their soul-bleeding effects. It was only a matter of time, then, that some clever clogs – in this case, the Manchester International Festival – would get the builders in for some serious orchestral expansion. The chosen craftsman was Salford composer Joe Duddell, who was charged with curating the melodic explosions witnessed at Bridgewater Hall as the Bury quintet were joined by fellow northern titans the Hallé Orchestra and Youth Choir, who carefully nurtured fledgling numbers into thickly textured walls of warmth; mature, lavish, experienced music that earned its exponents a standing ovation before the first half was out.
Guy Garvey's emotive and occasionally falsetto timbres mixed with the innocent and unbroken tones from the younger singers to reveal tales of love, loss and friendship. Energetic brass punctuated its way through 'Grace Under Pressure' with alarming vigorousness. Additional strings on tracks from The Seldom Seen Kid added a decadent, spine-tingling lushness; the songs evolving into epic multidimensional layers of sound. Enquiring "are we having the time of our lives?" in 'Weather To Fly', Garvey seemed to summarise the feeling among fans who clutched at each other, a sea of hands waved in support.
(Claire Jackson)
Prima Donna, Palace Theatre, July 10
Opera has always been traceable in Rufus Wainwright's music. Just listen to Want Two's slightly incongruous opener 'Agnes Dei', or 'Greek Song' from Poses, which borrows the melody from Weber's 'Freischütz.' So it's not really a surprise that Wainwright has turned his hand to the artform. In many ways, tonight's premiere of Prima Donna is a coming of age for the Canadian troubadour, the completion of his youth as he re-embraces the classical education he once rebelled against. Sung entirely in French (with English surtitles) and set in Paris, Prima Donna tells the story of faded singer Régine Saint Laurent, who is given one more night to cast away the demons of her past and redeem her status as one of the world's leading operatic sopranos.
It's a pleasant, if slightly insubstantial, premise for two and half hours worth of opera, and ultimately, pleasant is how the show plays out. Which is a relief, but the unpleasant news for Wainwright is that he seems to have been caught between his own innate ability to entertain the masses and a desire to stick to operatic convention.
The sets are beautifully lavish, rich in colour and change almost constantly, while the show's side performers bring a sense of playfulness to what is, in essence, a fairly ceaseless libretto melodrama. So too does Wainwright's charmingly daft humour, which marbles the show throughout.
But then there's the flipside. Yes, the two main protagonists are memorably characterised. Janis Kelly is majestic as the traumatised diva, Régine. Jonathan Summers is truly convincing as Régine's relentless, single-minded butler. But despite these memorable performances, there are elements that are too easily forgotten. Musically, Prima Donna seems to lack the sense of adventure of Wainwright's pop music playing it far, far too safe. Perhaps if Wainwright were a little less reverent, he would have had the chutzpah to create something that, musically, leant more on his own obvious love for satisfying melody than on his idea of what opera should be and how it should be composed.
The show's climax is also forgettable. Régine's operatic career doesn't shine again. She merely accepts her fate and embraces Paris. Oh. "It went nowhere!" said an audience member as he made his way home. In truth, Prima Donna just didn't go far enough. (Gideon Brody)
It Felt Like A Kiss, Quay House, July 15
A collaboration between promenade theatre specialists Punchdrunk, doomily brilliant documentary maker Adam Curtis, and the ever-industrious Damon Albarn, It Felt Like A Kiss isn't a musical production as such, but serves as a savage critique of cherished notions that the Sixties and late rock'n'roll era constituted a time of innocence and positivity.
Essentially linear, the first section sees audience groups wandering a fixed route through a huge office block, converted into disquieting scenes of US suburbia, circa 1963. Papier mache figures slump emotionless in rooms dotted with typewritten notes dwelling on psychosis, mental breakdown, and moral decay; the Kennedy assassination, Cold War, Black Panthers, resurrection of the KKK and CIA overseas intervention are alluded to constantly. Sinister in the extreme, but the main event is Curtis' 35 minute film, shown two thirds through. Essentially drawing a line between more or less everything wrong in the world today and the period 1959 to 1963, it uses stock footage, subtitles and music of the time to paint an image of a planet poisoned by an America slowly turning psychotic.
Albarn's score of nerve-janglingly loud strings, unsettling ambient washes and crazed carnival chiming offers effective atmospherics, but the period soundtrack hits harder: the sinister innocence of the Spector-era, juxtaposed with the genuinely malignity of The Velvet Underground (which the production takes pains to explain as a ultimate product of that era).
Broken into component parts, IFLAK is not without problems (notably the shlocky ending), but critiquing it as theatre, film or music is missing the point of a genuinely unsettling synthesis of all three. (Andrzej Lukowski)
Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson, Palace Theatre, Jul 18
So it's the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, and the irreparably tarnished American Dream that it came to represent is looking just a bit more aglow again. Apart from maybe at the Palace Theatre where Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson are up on stage hemmed in by laptops and keyboards, picking their way like an aging Hansel and Gretel through a homeland that they don't really recognise any more.
Things begin with Walter Benjamin's vision of an angel propelled backwards through the catastrophe of history, and doesn't get all that much cheerier from there. Yet the set is beautifully balanced, swinging effortlessly between the two of them, Laurie's violin woven seamlessly through Lou's snarling guitar. From out of the back catalogue of their respective careers, something like a shared vision is created, peppered with knowing references to their own relationship; Romeos and Juliettes and old husbands and wives bitching away at each other.
The main theme however is undoubtedly America. The night a mesmerising wander through an American Dream become nightmare, especially on a particularly epic sounding 'Halloween Parade' and Anderson's 'Only An Expert', which closes the show in a darkly euphoric wave of synthy beats and discordant guitar.
As this song races towards its brilliantly apocalyptic conclusion there is a suggestion that if anything the people are slightly more with Laurie than they are with Lou, and an equally faint hint that potentially he (who, DiS discovered to our total delight, demands as part of his rider a Japanese fighting stick in his hotel room) isn't totally happy with this. Yet after an achingly long wait they do appear for an encore, combining perfectly on 'The Lost Art of Conversation' and an 'I'll Be Your Mirror' that, like the evening as a whole, leaves us spellbound and breathless.

"It was so serene. These thousand year-old vessells command the space, and visitors are asked to contemplate them more than they're asked to learn about them.

Shavonda's "Navy & Bright" Room
Like this entry? Favorite it below!
- Name:
- Shavonda
- Location:
- Sacramento, CA
- Division:
- Dark
- Inspiration for my palette:
- When we first moved in almost every wall was tan-ish brown and very much not our taste. I love boldly colored walls and figured navy would be a great choice since it pairs well with so many colors. Im constantly inspired to change my surroundings so at any given time there are accent colors transitioning out and in. Right now we are phasing out dark woods and more traditional furnishings, for mints, teals, and corals. The navy helps buffer the transition. We are very fortunate to have 4 large south facing windows within the room so I wasn't concerned with whether or not the space could handle it.
- Colors used in my room:
- The walls are Glidden Rich Navy
- Tips for using color successfully:
- Assess your lighting situation, look to the color wheel, and just go for it! When it comes to paint in particular, changing things is such an easy fix. If you don't like it, just paint over it.

The words, spoken by a glowing superstar at the end of a giddy tournament, formed an outline of hope. Five months later, into this same blueprint a despairing team buries its head.
It was Kobe Bryant talking about Dwight Howard. It was the caretaker of basketball's greatest franchise unofficially handing over the keys.
"Look, I'm going to play two, maybe three more years … then the team is his," Bryant said at the end of the London Olympics. "I'm excited for the Laker franchise. Now they have a player who can carry the franchise well after I'm gone. It should be his. He should be willing to accept that challenge.''
Bryant said it, and Lakers fans believed it, their aging cornerstone once again being switched out for something even stronger, from one Hall of Famer to another, from West to Magic to Shaq to Kobe to the lovable man-child nicknamed D12, acquired from Orlando in a deal filled not only with Magic, but magic.

For Edouard Manet the act of painting and the painting itself were sufficient reason for it to exist. It's uncertain where the phrase "Art for art's sake" originated, the rebel painters of the late 1800's were only to glad to adopt it as their own, if they did not in fact invent it. Manet's scandalous 1863 painting Le dejeuner sur l'herbe (Luncheon on the Grass) may well be the first such work of art to embrace "art for art's sake". The work refuses categorisation. It is not a simple genre scene involving a picnic on the grass as the name seems to imply. Neither is it a replay of classical themes despite the poses of the figures, which Manet borrowed from classical etchings.
Manet appears to have been conscious of just how radical the painting was. It provoked dismay and controversy even at the Salon de Refuse` where it was first exhibited. Manet was convinced the importance of the painting lay not in its subject matter but in the painting itself. The work is an amalgamation, pulled together from various sources, including photographs. The nude woman's face is photographically realistic unlike the rest of her nude body - which seems flat and perhaps rather alien. The figure in the background seems too large and almost a painted backdrop. In a very real sense, Manet was a bridge between the "useful" art of the past and the, "modern" art we know today wherein the artist rules!

Friday January 25, 2013
Rose Byrne, star of hit comedy Bridesmaids, recently revealed she has a fear of birds, brought on during filming for her latest movie: I Give It A Year.
In the film, which premiered in London on Thursday night, Rose had to film a scene involving a live dove, as part of a romantic proposition, which left her feeling shaken and on-edge.
The Australian actress said "I was petrified. I was slightly unprepared, but I have a fear of birds, I discovered, and the scene, unfortunately, was hijacked by this fear.
It was intense. It was like a weird acting exercise, where I had to focus on my objective while being completely physically overtaken. It was really weird."
The comedy is based on the whirlwind wedding of Nat and Josh, played by Rose and Rafe Spall, who seek counselling for their marriage against the backdrop of an ever-present ex and new love-interests.
Rose looked radiant at the film's premiere in Leicester Square in a pink Balenciaga gown and Charlotte Olympian heels.
Co-stars Minnie Driver, Simon Baker and Rafe Spall also walked the red carpet as did guests David Mitchell, Victoria Coren, Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman.
I Give It A Year is released in cinemas on February 8.

BOCA RATON, Fla. _ Lipscomb's Lady Bisons softball team will have to fight its way out of the loser's bracket in the double-elimination Atlantic Sun Softball Championships after falling 3-1 to UCF.
The Lady Bisons are the No. 3 seed in the tournament, while UCF is No. 4. All games are being played on the campus of Florida Atlantic University.
A pitching duel was expected for this first-round game. The Lady Bisons started Daniellle Catalano, their No. 1 pitcher, against UCF's ace Lindsay Enders, a member of the A-Sun All-Conference team.
Lipscomb scored the first run of the game in the bottom of the third inning. Kate Richards led off with a walk and moved to second base on a sacrifice bunt by Leigh Little. Julia Davidson walked before Jessica Wilson singled to bring home Richards. The Lady Bisons' run was the first in their NCAA-era postseason tournament history.
Catalano started off strong, forcing the first two UCF batters she faced to strike out. She recorded four strikeouts in the first three innings, finishing with five for the game.
Crystle Krafft, the No. 7 hitter for UCF, led off the fifth inning with a solo home run to left center, her 10th homer of the year. Catalano remained composed and retired the next three batters to end the inning.
In the sixth, Catalano forced Cici Alvarez to fly out to start the inning. Byrttani Lindheim followed with a single and Stephanie Best, the player of the year in the A-Sun, walked. Amber Lamb flied out to Julia Davidson at shortstop. But with two outs Enders helped herself in a big way by slamming a double to left center that scored Lindheim and Best.
With the Lady Bisons trailing 3-1, Sara Meek came in to pitch the top of the seventh. She retired the side in order.
The Lady Bisons had one last chance in the seventh, but weren't able to put a runner on base.
Catalano allowed six hits and walked two in six innings. All three runs were earned.
Enders gave up only two hits, one to Wilson in the third for the RBI, and a double to left by Alysha Forsythe in the fourth. Enders struck out five and walked five.

Former 'Anti-Piracy Investigator' Explains How He Fed Police Cases, Inflated 'Piracy' Stats
from the but-of-course dept
"He was adamant that we needed to boost our statistics to make the media sit up and take notice and that the large numbers would make it easier to get the local Police interested. This was especially difficult to do as local police had no jurisdiction over copyright infringing product and the AFP were desperately short on manpower. We were encouraged to find links to drugs and stolen goods wherever possible."There's a lot more in the story -- none of which is particularly surprising, but just interesting to see someone who was there come out and admit what most people knew already.
"We discussed the formula for extrapolating the potential street value earnings of 'laboratories' and we were instructed to count all blank discs in our seizure figures as they were potential product. Mr Gane also explained that the increased loss approximation figures were derived from all forms of impacts on decreasing cinema patronage right through to the farmer who grows the corn for popping."
"Funded solely by MPAA, AFACT lobbies hard for changes to Australian law and enhance the sexiness of their case by making vague references to links to terrorism. Sometimes not so vague. I was instructed to tell police officers that the profit margins were greater than dealing heroin. It was bizarre. A twisted logic that AFACT spewed out with monotonous regularity," Warren says.
One of the examples Warren gives is that they assumed that all burners and DVD replicators would run 24/7, making these operations appear very lucrative.
"Each burner cranking out ten discs an hour, multiplied by ten dollars per disc is potentially a hundred dollars an hour, multiplied by number of burners by hours in a year gives a yearly potential…. Very pumped up statistics."

In just about a week new wave of ECU freshman and students make their return to Greenville, and for those new students, it's a new chapter of not only learning, but freedom.
ECU police want students to embrace that new freedom as safely as possible.
Chief Gerald Lewis says, "These are probably going to be some of the best years of their lives -- I want them to enjoy it safely -- and I just want safety to be a part of that educational process."
Lewis wants those freshmen -- and returning students -- to be proactive in not becoming a victim of crime. He says, "I think the most important thing we want our students to remember is they have to be aware of their environment. A lot of times crimes are created by opportunity. We want to reduce the opportunities for anyone to actually commit a crime here on our campus."
Tyler Tharrington is a rising senior and knows what the chief is talking about. He says, "It usually happens around 3:00 in the morning -- someone is walking by themselves -- these guys show up and they get robbed."
Lewis says with around 1,300 cameras and panic stations around campus -- technology will be aiding in keeping students safe.
When it comes to alcohol, Lewis says, "We are certainly going to talk responsibility as far as drinking -- we certainly aren't going to condone underage drinking -- but we want them to be aware of the dangers of drinking alcohol -- and sometimes drinking alcohol can put you in predicaments you don't want to be regarding safety."
Rising senior Khiana Wyatt says, "I can't tell anyone not to drink -- you're going to do what you want to do but -- drink responsibly and drink with people who you trust -- because you never know -- you could wake up in a bathroom somewhere."
It's within the last few years that the subject of sexual assaults and their handling by college campuses around the country has come into question.
Lewis says that his department will be treating those with the utmost importance. He says, "One of the things I implemented as soon as I got here on campus was the fact that if there's an allegation or sexual assault that occurs -- I am to be called -- so that starts at the top. We have a number of groups here at the university who are working on that to streamline the process to make it easier to report."
One thing the Pirate faithful may notice at ECU football games is a new mobile unit Chief Lewis says the department will be using to coordinate with other agencies like the Pitt County Sheriff's Office and Greenville police, in the event of an incident.

Road Trippin' in the Florida Keys: Key Largo to Key West
One of the nation's most renowned road trips involves cruising from one island to another, and it's right here in the Florida Keys from Key Largo to Key West.
With your Florida vacation at Parrot Key Resort sparkling on the horizon, we have some of the best insider tips for making the most of your drive along the Overseas Highway to reach Key West. The trip of over 100 miles takes around three hours, however with so much to see along the way, we recommend allowing a whole day to soak up the spectacular scenery of the Sunshine State's stunning island archipelago. After all, there are some important pit stops to make along the way to sample the delights of freshly-caught seafood and Key lime pie. Call 888-665-6368 to speak with an onsite vacation planner or Book Online Now.
Ready, Set… Key Largo!
Once you've entered Key Largo, you're officially in the Florida Keys and the unbroken blue horizons of ocean and sky will stretch out before you. Start your road trip off in style with a leisurely breakfast at some of Key Largo's most talked about dining spots, including Harriette's Restaurant (Mile Marker 95.7) which offers a warm and welcoming service, wallet-friendly prices and huge muffins to help keep you refueled until the next stop. Doc's Diner (Mile Marker 99.6) is another tempting breakfast option, popular among locals for its generous portion sizes including tropical French toast and breakfast burritos.
Next Stop: Islamorada
Continue your drive from Key Largo to Islamorada, which sits between the saltwater wilderness of the Everglades National Park and the deep waters of the Florida Straits. Stop at the Rain Barrel Artisan Village (Mile Marker 86.7) which is impossible to miss with its giant fiberglass lobster standing proudly at the entrance of this fascinating sculpture art gallery. There are individual shops all nestled under a canopy of giant Banyan trees selling a tempting selection of unique homemade gifts including unusual jewelry, pottery and ceramics, so allow enough time for some all-important perusing.
Is your stomach rumbling again? It's nearing lunchtime after all, and if there's one place in which to indulge over a memorable lunch in Islamorada, it's Lorelei (Mile Marker 82). As popular for its daytime menu as its evening sunset celebrations, this restaurant and Cabana bar offers one of the best views of Florida Bay which you'll no doubt happily soak up over seafood tacos or the "Lorelei's World Famous Fish Sandwich," all washed down with a Keys-style frozen drink.
The sparkling ocean is looking calm and the afternoon sun is stretching its rays across a cloudless sky; it's looking too good outside to hop back into your car, so take some time to unwind on one of Islamorada's finest beaches. Anne's Beach (Mile Marker 73) is a perfect stretch of paradise, conveniently located next to the Overseas Highway so you won't struggle to find it. The beach is an ideal spot for sunbathing, switching off for an afternoon nap, cooling off in the shallows, or just taking in the beautiful ocean views.
Marathon or Bust
Your relaxing lunch will set you up for the next stretch as you cruise down Highway 1 to the Middle Keys which are anchored by Marathon, a 10-mile-long island with a family-friendly reputation and a rich fishing heritage. Take a break from your car and stretch your legs by taking your pick of several attractions in Marathon. First, you will come across the Dolphin Research Center (Mile Marker 59) in Grassy Key where you can interact with dolphins and learn about exciting dolphin research.
Also nearby way is the new Aquarium Encounters (just after Vaca Cut Bridge at Mile Marker 53). Here, you will find an interactive Florida Keys aquarium experience with daily shark feedings, stingray encounters, and the opportunity to swim among fish on the attraction's coral reef. Or if you prefer an outdoor nature experience, nearby at Mile Marker 50 is Crane Point, a nature center with walking trails through a tropical hardwood grove. Further west is a wildlife lovers' paradise at the Turtle Hospital which is dedicated to helping injured sea turtles return to the wild (Mile Marker 48.5).
Seven Mile Bridge
The Middle Keys not only signal the halfway mark in your Overseas Highway road trip; it is also the point at which you can stop to capture images of the impressive Seven Mile Bridge soaring over the Gulf of Mexico. Running alongside it is the Old Seven Mile Bridge, the hurricane-battered railroad built by Henry Flagler in the early 1900s which is now a popular spot for fishing. After its destruction in the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935, it was later rebuilt in 1978 and features a rising arc in its center so you'll feel like you're driving right off into the sky! There are plenty of places to pull over and take some photos, enjoy a stroll and watch the wildlife fly by.
Just south of Marathon lies the tiny island of Pigeon Key which is well worth a stop, particularly if you're after a taste of Florida Keys history. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Pigeon Key is a five-acre property which served as a home base for railroad workers operating the Old Seven Mile Bridge. You can reach Pigeon Key by bicycle or foot along the historic bridge (a 2.2 mile trek) or by ferry service which departs from the Pigeon Key Visitor Center and Gift Shop on Knight's Key (Mile Marker 47).
The Lower Keys
The further south you drive, the more beautifully remote the scenery becomes in the Lower Keys. For some much-needed leg-stretching, stop off at Bahia Honda Key (Mile Marker 37), a tropical island home to one of Florida's southernmost state parks with beautiful beaches, magnificent sunsets and excellent snorkelling. As you drive south into Big Pine Key (Mile Marker 29) there are plenty of places to pull over for a pit stop if your hunger pangs start kicking in, including No Name Pub on Watson Boulevard which serves up great pizza and pitchers of beer.
For classic Keys-style dining, try The Wharf Bar and Grill at Mile Marker 25.5 on Summerland Key. You can enjoy freshly-caught fish and vegetables grown from the restaurant's organic garden, all served up in a peaceful waterfront setting with indoor and outdoor seating. If you need to satisfy your sweet tooth, head further south in Sugarloaf Key at Mangrove Mama's (Mile Marker 20) for a generous slice of Key lime pie on the sun-baked, palm tree-lined patio, or try Baby's Coffee (Mile Marker 15), which is famous for its Cuban roasts and Key lime pie to-go.
Final Destination… Key West
As the afternoon starts merging into evening, your last leg of this world-renowned road trip will end in Key West just where the true vacation begins. You'll arrive just in time to find a spot for your first Key West sunset perhaps on Parrot Key Hotel & Villas' sunset pier, and you won't be disappointed.
Check-in at Parrot Key Hotel & Villas and refresh before stepping outside to celebrate the moment the golden sun dips into the ocean. Tomorrow marks the start of your Key West vacation in this place known as paradise, so dine with us and enjoy the moment until it's time for a much-needed rest, surrounded by the simple luxury and comfort of your Parrot Key Hotel & Villas guestroom or suite. Sleep tight and let the Key West fun begin tomorrow!

In his televised "State of Our Schools" talk, Rex addressed an uncomortable question posed by The Voice: If schools are so broke, why are many administrators running up bills at a "Leadership Conference" in Myrtle Beach that they fully intend to hand off to the taxpayers back home?
Besides trying to minimize the question with condescending laughter, Rex pointed out that only 800 bureaucrats were in attendance, unlike the 1800 that attended last year. Additionally, representatives from some of the state's most challenged schools were in attendance, and the issues facing them must be addressed in the setting provided by the SCASA ( South Carolina Association of School Administrators) "Leadership Conference."
Rex finished off by pointing out that a significant portion of the state's tourist revenue comes from Myrtle Beach, and that cancelling the "long-standing" SCASA conference would be detrimental to the tourism industry.
So taxpayers should pony up for district bureaucrats to take a sea-side vacation because they don't want tourism revenues in Myrtle Beach to decline? Even in times of economic prosperity, people would balk at this kind of expense ( if they knew) in the name of "education." How much more now, when teachers are being laid off, and parents are being warned that class sizes and their property tax bills could be increasing?
Some administrators chose not to attend, and to spare local parents the burden of paying for the trip. Others felt that attending was important enough for them to pay for the trip out-of-pocket. Tough times call for tough spending practices, and trips to Myrtle Beach don't fit that description.

Minnesota House Schedules Thursday Gay Marriage Vote
ST. PAUL (AP) - The Minnesota House has scheduled a Thursday debate and floor vote on the bill to legalize same-sex marriage in the state.
House DFL leadership announced the plans Tuesday. House Speaker Paul Thissen has previously said that scheduling the vote would be a signal that DFL leaders secured the 68 votes needed to pass the bill.
If the House passes the bill, the next vote would be in the state Senate. But its passage has been seen as more secure there than in the House. Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton has promised to sign the bill, which would allow gay couples to start getting married in Minnesota on Aug. 1.
The Senate Finance Committee is scheduled to give a last committee look at the bill on Tuesday.

By Zechariah Manyok Biar
December 5, 2012 — On December 4th or 5th, 2012, Isaiah Abraham was dragged out of his house and shot dead in front of the same house by unknown gunmen. It is not yet clear why he was killed. But most of us know that Isaiah Abraham was a well known critic of the Government. In most cases, I was his opposite but we were still great friends. Recently when I told Isaiah that I wanted to get married, he became the first person to voluntarily tell me that he was going to assist me.
Isaiah and I were great friends even though we disagreed because we both knew that in democracy, differences are as important as sameness. We judge ourselves better when we have somebody who disagrees with us. I am the loser now because I will miss the writing of Isaiah.
I knew Isaiah Abraham since 1995. He was working with the United Nations when we were defending Kapoeta from the enemy. Isaiah Diing Abraham Chan Awuol, if one did not know his full name, was not afraid to assist soldiers who were starving in Buno in 1997 even though his mandate was to give the ration to civilians only. I witnessed that. Was that not a risk to his job?
Not only that, Isaiah was one of the first soldiers to rebel against the Government. He was one of SPLA officials. He was loyal to the freedom he fought for. That was why he was committed to criticizing vices in the Government. He had nothing to do with the defending of his community of Kongor or Twic East. For example, he once asked me to apologize to Uror County when I criticized the MPs from there after the repeated killing of innocent people from my home areas.
Isaiah's writing was always balanced even though many people could not easily get what he was saying. He would give credit where it due. He respected my writing and I respected his, even though our views were always opposite. The misunderstanding of his views by our officials was great.
But he also spoke his mind when he believed that doing so was good for South Sudan. The following paragraph is from the article he wrote few days before his death from the hands of unknown gunmen. The article is entitled, "Khartoum though has a case must give peace a chance."
"The argument by South Sudan leaders that the matter of SPLM/A-North is an internal matter doesn't hold water. It is not enough in itself. How about our charge that Dr. Lam Akol of the Democratic Change and Major David Yau Yau are supported by Khartoum, isn't that not an internal affair of our country? Why do we call their differences with their rebels 'internal affair' and never call ours the same? We must choose between peace and war and not both. Peace is what our people want, not war."
Despite Isaiah's criticism of the system, his family is really committed to anything about the SPLM and South Sudan. A day before Isaiah was killed, his mother Rev. Rebecca Lueth Wel was traveling to Rumbek to pray for peace among communities there because of her love for this country. Isaiah's brothers are working in the police and the army at senior positions. One would wonder if his killing would be because of his being critical of the system since everything around his family is for the system.
It is sad that nobody will bring Isaiah back from death even if we now learned that everything he was writing was because of his sincere love for this country. Who wants to endanger his/her life if it is not from the deep-rooted love for the cause?
But we must be careful not to jump into conclusion on why he was killed and who did it. It is not yet clear why Isaiah was killed in cold blood, but it will be known no matter what.
When I visited Isaiah father's house today, I saw the anger I have never seen from our people. This means that damage has been done to our loyalty to the system. Whoever did the killing has succeeded in causing suspicions among our people.
It would be very important for our Government to find the killers to know exactly why they killed Isaiah so that we are convinced that the killing was not politically motivated. Otherwise, the anger I am now seeing will remain in us for a long time.
