Universal announces a new writer on “Scarface” remake
Back in July of 2012, Universal announced plans to remake “Scarface.”
Recently, they revealed that writers Paul Attanasio (“Donnie Brasco”) and David Ayer (“Training Day”) gave it a shot, and now Jonathan Herman (“Straight Outta Compton”) is at bat.
Before you get your Spider-Man Underoos in a bunch about yet another remake, as I explained in my previous post on “Scarface,” it’s possible to make a remake that’s not only good but has a life of its own.
For those of you who didn’t catch the previous article, here’s the gist.
Why De Palma’s “Scarface” works as a remake
The Brian De Palma-directed “Scarface” is a remake of the 1932 Paul Muni-starring vehicle of the same name.
I’ll wait for you non-movie buffs to digest that.
De Palma’s “Scarface” works because it utilized the core parts of the original film, but placed it squarely in (for then) modern times in a new setting.
How to make a good (third) “Scarface”
Though it is sad Hollywood is going down the well-trodden remake path again, it is possible to take a story like “Scarface” and give it an original sheen.
The producers of the new version must remember the rags-to-riches tale, utilize set pieces from the original films, and give it a modern take based on something relevant to today’s audiences.
The video game genre has already proven the validity of the technique. Take the “Grand Theft Auto” series from Rockstar Games. The breakout title, “GTA III,” turned on the story of a New York criminal. Sequels included a Russian-ish mobster, a Los Angeles-styled gangsta and, ironically, a flashback to the streets of Miami/ Vice City that played like “Scarface.”
All the same basic story of small guy rises through crime, but the variety of settings and ethnicities keeps things interesting.
Keeping with the criminal theme, the new “Scarface” could find itself in the world of the Mexican drug cartels. Picture the flash of the Mexican underworld, with a young man rising in the corrupt world of the illegal marijuana, immigration and the gun trades.
Give Robert Rodriguez the camera with a Quentin Tarantino script and let them loose.
The tale could also flow from the favelas of Brazil, where cocaine is still in high demand as an import and the glitz of Rio de Janeiro provides a backdrop as exciting as Tony Montana’s Miami. Check out this trailer for “Elite Squad” to see how well that could work (sorry it’s only in SD).
The story could also take us to the streets of Hong Kong, where the Triads provide all the civil liberties the Chinese government seeks to deny the people. It’d be just like Prohibition in America with a Communist slant. Plus, there’s the chance to provide a John Woo throwback.
What Universal decided (so far)
These are but a few off the cuff examples of setting and situation for a “Scarface” remake. Since I wrote this article back in 2012, Universal has revealed their plans to set this third “Scarface” in Los Angeles, following a Mexican immigrant and his rise within the drug world.
So, I sorta nailed it, huh? That’s what happens when I think out loud.
For more on the new “Scarface,” check out this article at Collider.
For those interested, here’s the trailer for the original “Scarface.”

Tanzania economic update: the power of investing in girls: educating girls and ending child marriage in Tanzania.
[Washington, D.C.], World Bank, 2019 Jan. 79 p.This report is the 11th in a series of updates on the economy of Tanzania published by the World Bank. Unlike others in the series however, this report has a special focus on the economic implications of girls’ education and child marriage. The report builds on some of the analysis from the study looking at the economic impact of child marriage conducted by the World Bank and International Center for Research on Women. The authors find that overall child marriage and early child bearing are still prevalent, and girls’ educational attainment is on average low. Overall, ending child marriage in Tanzania could lead to: up to US$311 million in education budget savings by 2030; up to US$219 million benefit from reduced under 5 mortality by 2030; US$5 billion in welfare benefits through reduced population growth by 2030. The report concludes with policy recommendations to increase opportunities for adolescent girls, including strategies to improve access to and quality of education, to change social norms that perpetuate gender stereotypes, to empower girls, and to increase economic opportunities for girls.
Juba, South Sudan, Oxfam, 2019 Feb. 46 p.This research found that 71% of women and girls between 15 and 49 years old living in Nyal, South Sudan, were married before 18, and 10% were married before 15. These findings are based on a survey carried out among about 200 women and girls, and on almost 30 interviews and focus groups with local decision makers and practitioners, and boys and girls between 13 and 18 years old. Millions of people have been affected by the conflict that started in 2013 in South Sudan, and women and girls continue to suffer from rape and abduction for sexual slavery. Many people living in the most affected areas have fled to Nyal, a region still affected by increased poverty, food insecurity and sexual violence driven by the conflict. While it is difficult to identify any increase in child marriage rates due to the conflict, because there was no data available on child marriage in Nyal before the conflict, the rates are alarming. With this report, Oxfam urges government, donors, and humanitarian actors to take action to address gender inequality and support community-based action to address this pressing issue.
The effect of implementation strength of basic emergency obstetric and newborn care (BEmONC) on facility deliveries and the met need for BEmONC at the primary health care level in Ethiopia.
BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth. 2018; 18(123): p.Background: Basic emergency obstetric and newborn care (BEmONC) is a primary health care level initiative promoted in low- and middle-income countries to reduce maternal and newborn mortality. Tailored support, including BEmONC training to providers, mentoring and monitoring through supportive supervision, provision of equipment and supplies, strengthening referral linkages, and improving infection-prevention practice, was provided in a package of interventions to 134 health centers, covering 91 rural districts of Ethiopia to ensure timely BEmONC care. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in measuring program implementation strength to evaluate public health gains. To assess the effectiveness of the BEmONC initiative, this study measures its implementation strength and examines the effect of its variability across intervention health centers on the rate of facility deliveries and the met need for BEmONC. Methods: Before and after data from 134 intervention health centers were collected in April 2013 and July 2015. A BEmONC implementation strength index was constructed from seven input and five process indicators measured through observation, record review, and provider interview; while facility delivery rate and the met need for expected obstetric complications were measured from service statistics and patient records. We estimated the dose–response relationships between outcome and explanatory variables of interest using regression methods. Results: The BEmONC implementation strength index score, which ranged between zero and 10, increased statistically significantly from 4.3 at baseline to 6.7 at follow-up (p < .05). Correspondingly, the health center delivery rate significantly increased from 24% to 56% (p < .05). There was a dose–response relationship between the explanatory and outcome variables. For every unit increase in BEmONC implementation strength score there was a corresponding average of 4.5 percentage points (95% confidence interval: 2.1–6.9) increase in facility-based deliveries; while a higher score for BEmONC implementation strength of a health facility at follow-up was associated with a higher met need. Conclusion: The BEmONC initiative was effective in improving institutional deliveries and may have also improved the met need for BEmONC services. The BEmONC implementation strength index can be potentially used to monitor the implementation of BEmONC interventions.
Journal of Nepal Health Research Council. 2018 Jul-Sep; 16(40):359-361.Chlorhexidine is a broad-spectrum antiseptic, effective on gram positive and gram negative bacteria as well as some viruses, having strong skin binding effect. Randomized controlled trials conducted in South Asian countries have proven that the use of chlorhexidine (4% weight/weight) for cord care can reduce neonatal mortality and prevent severe cord infections. Between 2011 and 2017, Nepal completed nationwide scale-up of the use of chlorhexidine by integrating with ongoing maternal and neonatal health programs, under the leadership of the Child Health Division. The chlorhexidine coverage and compliance study (2017) has revealed that the country has achieved 59% coverage of the intervention to date, with lowest use among home births. The strategy should be further strengthened to ensure that every newborn in need is reached with chlorhexidine.
Coaching community health volunteers in integrated community case management improves the care of sick children under-5: experience from Bondo, Kenya.
International Journal of Integrated Care. 2018 Oct 24; 18(4):1-11.Background: Shortages of healthcare workers is detrimental to the health of communities, especially children. This paper describes the process of capacity building Community Health Volunteers (CHVs) to deliver integrated preventive and curative package of care of services to manage common childhood illness in hard-to-reach communities in Bondo Subcounty, Kenya. Methods: A pre-test/post-test single-group design was used to assess changes in knowledge and skills related to integrated community case management (iCCM) among 58 Community Health Volunteers who received a six-day iCCM clinical training and an additional 3-week clinical coaching at health facilities. Thereafter, community health extension workers and health managers provided supportive supervision over a six-month period. Skills were assessed before the six-day training, during coaching, and after six months of iCCM implementation. Results: CHVs knowledge assessment scores improved from 54.5% to 72.9% after the six-day train¬ing (p < 0.001). All 58 CHVs could assess and classify fever and diarrhoea correctly after 3–6 weeks of facility-based clinical coaching; 97% could correctly identify malnutrition and 80%, suspected pneumonia. The majority correctly performed four of the six steps in malaria rapid diagnostic testing. However, only 58% could draw blood correctly and 67% dispose of waste correctly after the testing. The proportion of CHV exhibiting appropriate skills to examine for signs of illness improved from 4% at baseline to 74% after 6 months of iCCM implementation, p < 0.05. The proportion of caregivers in intervention community units who first sought treatment from a CHV increased from 2 to 31 percent (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Training and clinical coaching built CHV’s skills to manage common childhood illnesses. The CHVs demonstrated ability to follow the Kenya iCCM algorithm for decision-making on whether to treat or refer a sick child. The communities’ confidence in CHVs’ ability to deliver integrated case management resulted in modification of care-seeking behaviour.

A Behavioral Economics ppproach to reduce the injectable contraceptive discontinuation rate in Ethiopia: A stratified-pair, cluster-randomized field study.
Arlington, Virginia, JSI, Research and Training Institute, 2018. 36 p.Behavioral economics offers one way to design interventions by improving understanding of why people choose as they do and what motivates their decision-making and action. Behavioral economics has recently been used to improve reproductive health programming, suggesting that the approach could potentially be applied to mitigate the contraceptive discontinuation problem in Ethiopia. This report highlights the behavioral economics methodology used to conduct a behavioral diagnosis and design an intervention package to change health-related behaviors and decision-making around the use of injectable contraceptives in Ethiopia. Given that injectable methods are the primary method of choice among married women of reproductive age in the country and that the government sector provides 82% of contraceptive methods, JSI's Last Ten Kilometers project, in collaboration with ideas42, worked with Ethiopia's flagship Health Extension Program (HEP) to design and test behavioral approaches to mitigate the problem of discontinuation of injectable contraceptives. The JSI team implemented a stratified-pair, cluster-randomized experiment in the eight primary health center units (PHCUs), each of which serves about 25,000 people. This report highlights the four stages of behavioral health methodology used in the study, including the various interventions tested, and the results achieved by the end of the two-year activity.

I don’t spend a lot of time on YouTube so I am coming to this discussion a little late. I had the chance to see this video in Church this past Sunday where it was shown before the sermon. I really like what Jefferson Bethke has to say. The full text of the poem can be found here so that you can read it for yourself.
If you look at the ministry of the prophets in the Old Testament, one of their functions was to challenge the Israelites to reexamine their lives in light of Scripture. One of the problems that the prophets addressed was that the religious observance in Israel often did not translate into changed lives. The rituals did not bring righteousness. Perhaps this is the best way of taking Jeremiah Bethke’s video, as a call to reexamine our lives in light of Scripture.
There is much in the church today that should be challenged and examined. We certainly cannot operate as if the Church is what it could be or should be. I know this because I am part of the church and I am neither what I could be or should be with regard to my walk with Jesus.
I am haunted by the words of Jesus recorded in Matthew 7:21-23 where he tells us that many who claim relationship with Jesus will be turned away from Heaven. Those turned away by Jesus point to their works as proof of their status. This is a reminder that religion doesn’t save anyone, Jesus does. So I get where Mr. Bethke is coming from in much of his poem. We are challenged to be in the relationship with Jesus first and foremost.
I also appreciate Kevin DeYoung’s Reaction to the video and the follow-up post including a response from Mr. Bethke. Kevin searches for balance and goes point by point through the poem pointing out some parts that potentially cause confusion.
DeYoung’s point is well taken that God’s program is with the Church, imperfect as she is. We cannot pursue a relationship with Christ apart from the Church. The Church is an institution founded by Christ and when she is functioning as she ought, the Church is also in submission to Christ. So while parts of the visible church are failing in their mission, we cannot escape our responsibility to allow God to transform us and our Church into what he wants us to be.
Mr. Bethke’s poem should be taken as food for thought. We should examine what Scripture says about the issues he presents and how our churches should respond. We should examine Scripture and consider how we should respond individually to the issues the poem presents. We should seek God to change us individually and transform our Church into an institution that is above reproach, that takes Scripture seriously, that lives out the Gospel and reaches out to a world that desperately needs good news.
Thank you Jefferson Bethke and Kevin DeYoung for a healthy dialog.
What is your reaction to the video and Kevin DeYoung’s response?

Getting sick of hearing about the budget impasse? So are some state lawmakers.
Legislators are back in Springfield this week and hope they can use this month to tackle a budget for the coming fiscal year as well as this year.
State Rep. Jack Franks, D-Woodstock, said nothing is more important than solving the budget crisis.
“Understand that we’re spending every week more than $200 million more than what we’re bringing in,” Franks said. “We’re digging a deeper hole every day. It’s more than $30 million every day.”
Click here for summary
Franks said he would rather have lawmakers agree to a budget before the May 31 deadline than go into a special session.
State Rep. Ron Sandack, R-Downers Grove, said he hopes lawmakers learned their lesson over the past year, and will get down to business.
“Work on reforms and a budget,” Sandack said. “And if we use our time wisely that’s accomplishable.”
Last year lawmakers passed an unbalanced budget the governor ultimately vetoed. That meant legislators were in Springfield in overtime session all summer long.
Sandack said he hopes politicians don’t repeat last year’s mistakes.
“That was the summer of my political discontent because we were going back and forth it seemed ad infinitum,” Sandack said.
Franks said lawmakers should stay in Springfield until they agree on a budget.
“Nobody goes home, nothing else gets worked on, let’s fix the budget,” Franks said.
Last week, Gov. Bruce Rauner said he may call a special session if lawmakers don’t come to terms on budgets for this year and next year. Rauner said he’s investigating paying for the session himself so taxpayers don’t foot the bill.

Bright Swing is an interactive installation which combines play and movement.The rhythm of the swinging movement produces energy to illuminate the Bright Swing. The swing design belongs to the WINTER IN HEL-concept, which is developed by Päivi Raivio & Daniel Bumann to enliven public places during cold and dark seasons.
Many placemaking and public art projects are realised during warm seasons and there is need for new ideas and visions for steering away from the excuse of “bad weather causes boring public places”.
Light is seen as one of the main elements for enlivening public spaces during the darker seasons. Many of the current solutions are visual, static and they also consume energy. Bright Swing tackles this by combining active participation, self-powering mechanism, play and light.

When it came to directing Godzilla, Gareth Edwards’ motto was go big or go home. So it’s no surprise he cast Bryan Cranston, who played one of the biggest characters on TV on the hit series Breaking Bad.
HipHollywood sat down with Edwards, as well as Cranston, who revealed his excitement to finally put his infamous character Walter White behind him. “If you’re lucky you get a role of a lifetime like that,” said Cranston. “Now for the rest of my life the goal is to go in a different direction from him.”
In the film, Cranston plays a research scientist who tries to warn everyone of Godzilla’s return, while his son, played by Aaron Tyler Johnson, tries desperately to get back home to his wife and son.

Russia has freed U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner in a prisoner exchange for arms dealer Viktor Bout, who was in a U.S. jail for 12 years.
Griner is a two-time Olympic gold medalist. She was arrested at a Moscow airport in February for possessing cannabis oil and has been kept in a penal colony.
President Joe Biden said on Twitter that he had spoken to Griner. “She is safe. She is on a plane. She is on her way home,” he said.
The release is a sign of active diplomacy between the U.S. and Russia and may raise hopes for a way forward. Russia invaded Ukraine in February and continues to occupy parts of the country.
The one-for-one prisoner exchange also freed Bout, who traded weapons in the tumultuous years after the fall of the Soviet Union. For a while he was one of the world’s most wanted men. He was captured in a U.S. sting in Bangkok in 2008 and extradited to the U.S. two years later.

Immune-related disease before and after vasectomy: an epidemiological database study
Authors: Goldacre, M.J.; Wotton, C.J.; Seagroatt, V.; Yeates, D.
Source: Human Reproduction, Volume 22, Number 5, May 2007 , pp. 1273-1278(6)
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Abstract:<sec><st>BACKGROUND</st> Vasectomy can be followed by an autoimmune-antibody response. We aimed to determine whether men with immune-related diseases were more or less likely than others to have a vasectomy and then to determine whether vasectomy is associated with the subsequent development of immune-related diseases. </sec> <sec><st>METHODS</st> A database of linked records of hospital statistics was analysed. By comparing a population of men who underwent vasectomy with a reference population, we calculated the rate ratios for selected immune-related diseases before and after vasectomy. </sec> <sec><st>RESULTS</st> Some diseases studied (e.g. asthma and diabetes mellitus) were a little less common, prior to operation, in the vasectomy group than in the reference group. Others were not different. The mean period of follow-up was 13 years. We found no long-term elevation of risk following vasectomy of asthma, diabetes mellitus, ankylosing spondylitis, thyrotoxicosis, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis or testicular atrophy. There was a short-term elevation of risk of orchitis/epididymitis. </sec> <sec><st>CONCLUSIONS</st> In this large study, with many years of follow-up, we found no evidence that vasectomy increases the subsequent long-term risk of immune-related diseases. </sec>

Gustav Lange was a German composer known mainly for his wonderful melodious salon music. He was born in Schwerstedt near Erfurt, on August,13 in 1830 and was dead in Wernigerode on July,20 in 1889. He received initial musical training from his father on the piano and organ, followed by conservatory studies in piano, organ, thorough bass, and composition. His teachers included August Wilhelm Bach, Eduard Grell, and Albert Löschhorn. Lange produced a large number of works, most of which were light and popular piano pieces of which he wrote around 500. Edelweiss op. 31 and Blumenlied op. 39 (alternatively known as Flower Song in English) are perhaps two of his best-known works today.
It was a popular music genre in Europe during the 19th century. It was usually written for solo piano in the romantic style, and often performed by the composer at events known as “Salons”. Salon compositions are usually fairly short and often focus on virtuoso pianistic display or emotional expression of a sentimental character. Common subgenres of salon music are the operatic paraphrase or Fantasia, in which multiple themes from a popular opera are the basis of the composition, and the musical character-piece, which portrays in music a particular situation or narrative.
Thank you and good listening!

Summary: The California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) is the largest state health survey and one of the largest health surveys in the nation. Conducted by the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research, CHIS interviews more than 20,000 households each year and collects health data on adults, teenagers, and children to construct a detailed picture of the health and health care needs of California's large and diverse population.
Legislators, policymakers, local health departments, state agencies, community organizations, advocacy groups, foundations, researchers, and many others use CHIS data to justify programs that fight health threats. Our mission is to democratize data by putting it into the hands of all Californians through accessible tools, publications, and trainings.
CHIS Making an Impact 2020 highlights our work in 2020 — from several COVID-19 dashboards that track COVID-19 and various risk factors across California counties, as well as preliminary estimates from new COVID-19 questions in CHIS 2020, to hundreds of publications, events, presentations, and news articles that cite CHIS to our exciting sampling and data collection redesign.

The 27th Biennial of Graphic Arts brings eight views on art prints, the common thread of these different exhibitions being reproducibility of art. As its specific characteristic, the reproducibility of art, first occurs with the first prints in the Renaissance, becomes a decisive influence on twentieth century art, and is also relevant today. The 27th Biennial of Graphic Arts is comprised of the main Biennial exhibition, the already traditional exhibition of the artist awarded the Grand Prize at the previous Biennial, and six accompanying exhibitions prepared by various galleries in Ljubljana.

The National Art Library (NAL) at the Victoria and Albert Museum has
recently launched a visual database of artists' books featuring a
selection of objects from the collection. The database currently features
over 100 objects from the collection of over 5000 artists' books held in
The works featured display a wide array of techniques and approaches to
artists' books and include examples of simple photocopied works,
letterpress printing, altered books, concrete poetry, works incorporating
found materials and book objects, among others. The database provides
several images of each of the books featured. A particularly innovative
feature is the inclusion of objects in 3-D, providing rotating views of
some of the more sculptural objects in the collection. The database will
be enhanced with further examples in the autumn to bring the total to over
150 objects. It is also hoped to expand the database with further examples
The visual database can be viewed at:
It is accompanied by a suite of pages which include a brief history of
artists' books, a series of interviews with some contemporary book
artists, links to other projects and websites and some suggested reading
The resource is intended for both new and established audiences. It will
introduce the collection to the uninitiated by providing a flavour of what
to expect while also allowing established audiences to enjoy a sample of
what the collection has to offer on-line. The artists' books collection is
popular with visiting students and other groups visits to view the
collection are also encouraged. All artists' books held in the NAL are
listed in the NAL catalogue available at http://catalogue.nal.vam.ac.uk
Artists and the desire for
social change from 1871 to the present
EINDHOVEN - THE NETHERLANDS
+31 40 238 1000
On 22 September, the exhibition Forms of Resistance will open in the Van Abbemuseum. It departs from four historical moments: the French Commune in 1871, the Russian Revolution of 1917, May 1968 and our world after 9/11. Based on these benchmarks it includes works by Manet, Courbet, Lissitzky, Rodchenko, Malevich, Brigada Ramona Parra, Atelier Populaire, Tucuman Arde, Sherk, Haacke, Johanesson, General Idea, Leonard, Piper, Ressler and Superflex amongst others.
The exhibition tells the story of art and social change through the lens of resistance and artistic desire. Ambitions for progressive social or political changes in the past 150 years are compared, selecting specific moments at which collaborations between art and activism were at their most pronounced.
The connection between art and social change was a fundamental aspect of modernism. The concept of the avant-garde as the phalanx of a revolutionary movement intended to resist or destroy old habits and produce the new man, was bound up with modernism’s formalist innovations as much as its direct engagement in political action. Artists combined resistance with speculating about the future and support of certain political developments, their critique was propositional as well as severe, and they often made work for a world that did not yet exist -- but that they wanted to see come about.
Following the political and social upheavals of 1968 and 1989, this modernist and avant-garde model gradually lost its applicability. Artists developed different ways to resist and speculate. In the 21st century, with ideological struggles beginning to reconstitute themselves, the role of art is once again under pressure. Do resistance and speculation have a place in a world where economy is the instrument of contemporary politics? What does it mean to resist the current political establishment? What can we learn from past models and experiences and what light do they shed on our contemporary ideas of the world?
ARTISTS AND MOVEMENTS
Gustave Courbet and Eduard Manet are the key figures from the first period, followed immediately by William Morris, the founder of the British Arts & Crafts movement. Next up is the constructivism of artists such as Kazimir Malevich, El Lissitzky, Liobov Popova and Varvara Stepanova, Bauhaus student demonstrations and the surrealism and actions of Pablo Picasso and Joan Miro during the Spanish Civil War. The San Francisco Diggers, Bonnie Sherk and The Artists' Liberation Front precede May '68, the Paris and Prague revolts. We also examine wall paintings from Chile. The activism and political identity studies of the 1970s can be found in the work of Hans Haacke, the Artworkers' Coalition, Zoe Leonard, Martha Rosler, General Idea and Adrian Piper. Why some did artists opt to abandon the art world after '68, while others chose to comment on conflict zones within the confinement of the institution? How did art relate to the identity politics and rainbow coalitions of the 1980s an d 1990s? Disobedience, finally, is a small exhibit curated by Marco Scotini, in which Oliver Ressler, Marcelo Esposito and others provide insight into art activism in recent years. The present day is again a time for collectives but also an opportunity to look back on the past utopian century. What went before and what will follow the major ideological shifts of recent years?
Forms of Resistance
11 & 12 October 2007
Can art change politics, does politics determine art?
This two day discussion seminar reflects on some of the issues
brought up in the exhibition Forms of Resistance. The seminar will
introduce the exhibition and invite a number of artists, theorists and
activists to discuss the political possibilities of the art field.
Some of the questions addressed will include:
- What are possible relationships between art and political action?
- What role does aesthetics play in articulating the desire for social and political change?
- How can we interpret the political desires of previous artistic
generations today and how does it impact on our understanding of the history of art?
Will Bradley, Marcelo Esposito, Charles Esche, Brian Holmes,
Gerald Raunig, What, How, For Whom?, and Marina Vishmidt.
The seminar will be held in the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven,
11th October 15:00 - 21:00
12th October 12:00 - 17:00
Please join us and register. Attendance for one or both days of
the seminar is free of charge.

Critical Forum - Double Vision: A 21st century exploration of art, feminism and the body
Friday 19 October, 3.00pm - 5.00pm
In the wake of postmodernism, feminism, and the increasing fragmentation of the body image in popular culture, how is the body interpreted and re-configured in contemporary art? This informal forum will explore these questions, with diverse perspectives provided by theorists, artists and curators on aspects of art, feminism and the body. The forum will encompass feminist histories, new artistic approaches and local anecdotes.
JULIE RRAP: BODY DOUBLE
30 August 2007 - 28 January 2008
This major exhibition of the work of Julie Rrap, one of Australia’s most prominent artists, brings together photography, video, sculpture and installation from the past twenty-five years of the artist's practice. Curated by Victoria Lynn, the exhibition explores the persona of the ‘trickster’ in Rrap’s work, the theme of the ‘body double’, and considers the ways in which the artist oversteps the margins of bodily representation.
A major book, Julie Rrap: Body Double, with text by Victoria Lynn and co-published with Piper Press, will be available at the MCA Store

You will note the unfavourable bias and the complete lack of mention of Australia's considerable achievements in the arts and sciences. There is no mention of Australia's contribution in either of the two world wars or any military action since.
Australia is also blamed for the actions of the British Commonwealth policy towards aboriginals prior to federation in 1900. This is a common misconception. Australia as a country didnt exist prior to 1900 and every attrocity that occurred prior to that occurred under British rule. It is the British government's responsibility to apologise for everything that happened prior to Federation.
Why hasnt this BBC document, funded by the British government, been reviewed and corrected by the Australian government?
If the material for Australia is so inaccurate, what validity if any can we place on the profiles of all the other countries listed?
The British founded the first settlement and named it Sydney in 1788. Many of the first settlers were convicts. Free settlers arrived in increasing numbers, particularly after the discovery of gold in the mid-19th century.
Australia's original inhabitants, the Aborigines, numbered a few hundred thousand before the European influx. But two centuries of discrimination and expropriation followed, and at one point the number of Aborigines fell as low as 60,000.
Today 99% of the population are of European or Asian descent, but calls for a formal apology for past injustices towards the Aborigines are still made. Indigenous Australians suffer high rates of unemployment, imprisonment and drug abuse.

This television program from the BBC provides a good example of discriminatory humour. For the large part the panel is comprised of white males.
The playlist has two random samples, there are more examples here
Examples to look for
- child molestation
- diability discrimination
I estimate over 50% of the material is vilification against one minority group or another.
I'm surprised that the BBC is able to get this material past the censorship laws.
Its also enlightening to read the comments on youtube reaffirming the discrimination.

The funding reduction — down 4 per cent compared with an average OECD rise of 49 per cent — resulted in private spending on higher education, including students' tuition fees, surpass government funding.
By 2004 the Government paid 47.2 per cent of university revenue in Australia, compared with an OECD average of 75.4 per cent.
The OECD found private spending soared mainly due to students leaving university with a greater debt after the Federal Government lifted maximum HECS fees in 1997.
Only the US, Japan and Korea charged students more for a public university degree. Australians paid an average $US3855 a year for university study. Conversely, one in three members of the OECD, all of them European countries, offer students free university tuition.
The OECD report "Education at a Glance", released last night, said charging students fees had not reduced university access for the less advantaged. It found Australia led the developed world for access to a degree.
Education Minister Julie Bishop said the OECD analysis was flawed because it counted HECS and government full-fee loans as money paid by students, and did not include the majority of vocational and technical education funding.
It also did not include funding increases since 2004, including the $6 billion Higher Education Endowment Fund — part of $7.9 billion provided this year.
A Government report released yesterday showed Australian universities had a $15.5 billion revenue boom last year, up $1.6 billion — or 11 per cent — from 2005.
"This result shows that our universities are in a healthy financial position, which places them on a sustainable footing for the foreseeable future," Ms Bishop said.
The report groups Australia with the US, Britain, New Zealand and the Netherlands as countries that charge high university fees but offers most students a public loan or scholarship. About 95 per cent of Australian university students have a subsidised place.
Across all levels of education, the OECD report found Australia devoted a lower proportion of GDP than the developed world average, though the proportion increased under the Howard Government, up from 5.5 per cent in 1995 to 5.9 per cent in 2004.
Most of this growth was from private sources. About 27 per cent of total education funding was private, more than twice the OECD average of 13 per cent.
The report also found:
■Australia had the lowest unemployment rate for tertiary educated 25 to 29-year-olds in the developed world.
■Australian universities had the world's highest proportion of overseas students.
■Australian school students aged seven to 15 spent more time in the classroom than all countries except the Netherlands and Italy.
Opposition Education spokesman Stephen Smith said the OECD report showed 11 years of underinvestment and neglect under the Coalition.
Mr Smith said Labor was committed to increase funding at every level, but would not give details.

In Beyond Capricorn, Peter Trickett challenges the commonly held view that the European discovery of Australia and New Zealand was made first by the Dutch, followed later by Britain’s Captain James Cook. Trickett argues the remarkable claim that in the year 1522 – a century before the Dutch and 250 years before Captain Cook - the Portuguese sailed past Fraser Island and into Botany Bay, around Wilson’s Promontory, and as far as Kangaroo Island before returning to their base in Malacca via the North Island of New Zealand.
Drawing from primary and secondary historical sources, archaeological evidence and stories handed down through Aboriginal oral tradition, Peter Trickett tells a story of espionage, revenge and secret voyages made by the Portuguese to corner the fabulously rich spice trade in the east and find the islands of gold alluded to by Marco Polo. Secret voyages that resulted in the discovery of Australia and New Zealand almost 500 years ago.
Beyond Capricorn is a compelling account of how for a brief moment in the 1520s Australia and New Zealand came close to becoming Portuguese outposts in the southern seas.
About the Author
A journalist by profession, Peter Trickett has written for newspapers and magazines in Australia, New Zealand and Britain, specialising in science, historical and investigative reporting.
While working as a science journalist in Oxford, England, he won a national travelling fellowship for science journalism, using this award to study and write on science and environmental topics in Japan.
In New Zealand, where he worked as a senior writer with the New Zealand Herald and the Listener magazine, he won awards for historical journalism. Since coming to Australia in 1982 he has worked as an editor for the Australian National University in Canberra and as a Senior Officer with the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, where he was a writer and editor for the Australian Government’s overseas aid program.

UVA Revises Policy for Expressive Group ActivityPosted: Updated:
The University of Virginia President Teresa Sullivan released a statement to members of the university community May 4 regarding a revised policy.
The revisions aim to strengthen the current policy that has to do with "expressive" gatherings by groups that are not linked to the University.
The policy now requires groups not affiliated with UVA to make reservations with a "reservation officer" at least seven days before the activity.
Failure to adhere to the new policy changes will result in prosecution for trespass or other offenses.
Sullivan made this statement to introduce the policy changes:
The University of Virginia is committed to the Constitutional principle of free speech and to the safety and security of every member of this community.
The university has issued a revised policy regarding the time, place, and manner of expressive activity by unaffiliated persons meeting outdoors.
The policy requires unaffiliated persons to make reservations to engage in expressive activity in certain designated locations, on certain days and during certain hours, on outdoor university property.
The policy is effective May 4, 2018. More information about the policy is here.

The Deputy Director General of the Internal Security Organization (ISO), Lieutenant Colonel Emmy Katabazi, has urged the students of Kampala International University (KIU) to embrace studying society before they become potential leaders of their communities.
The ISO boss made these remarks while delivering a lecture of opportunity during a one-day meeting organized by the guild leadership of KIU on October 25, 2023.
According to Katabazi, one cannot change something they do not understand because to change society, a person must first determine the areas in which change is necessary and then orchestrate that change through the use of technology.
He noted that transforming society is not about age but ideological uprightness, emphasizing that at Senior Six, President Museveni had already made up his mind that the then-education in Makerere could not help him and his colleagues liberate the country, which is why they went to Mozambique to learn techniques of fighting to liberate the country.
According to Katabazi, the other factor that can cause the transformation of society is the level of technological development.
“Production forces combined with production relations, social and technical, form an economic base, and the economic base can only change by the level of technological development,” Katabazi said.
He added that the mastery of science is imperative to the socio-economic transformation of the country, which is why President Museveni has time and again emphasized the evolution of science to develop Uganda.
“The reason why some European countries colonized Africa is because they were more technologically developed than their colonial states. Therefore, as young leaders, you should embrace science, advance in technology, and become independent,” he added.
Katabazi emphasized that students are not too young to cause a revolution in the socio-economic transformation of the country.
Kampala University students commended the ISO boss for the lecture of opportunity and his pledge to organize a retreat of mindset for the varsity students.

The Sri Lankan government has rejected an offer from the Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) to upgrade the facilities at the Sapugaskanda oil refinery.
Petroleum Resources Minister Susil Premjayantha said that the government will require USD 400 million to upgrade the Sapugaskanda refinery and USD 1.5 billion to build a new one. IOC had expressed interest in the government’s plans to refurbish the island’s only refinery that will cost USD 2 billion.
“We have expressed our interest,” Suresh Kumar the IOC’s Colombo chief had told the Indian media.
He said that Lankan IOC have had several rounds of correspondence with the government’s petroleum officials.
“It is premature to discuss details of our discussions,” Kumar said without elaborating further. Sri Lanka has said that USD 2 billion would be needed to modernise the refinery at Sapugaskanda, a north Colombo suburb.
The refinery, built in 1960s was able to handle only Iranian and Saudi light crude. The 50,000 barrels per day refinery needs modification and Sri Lanka was talking to Iran in this regard in 2008.
Sri Lanka said that it was seeking alternative crude oil suppliers in view of the US sanctions on Iran coming into force around June this year.
Over 90 per cent of Sri Lanka’s crude oil requirements come from Iran.
Sapugaskanda needs modifications to handle supplies from non-Iranian sources, officials said.

The protocol was developed based on the need for measured performance and cost data on sustainable design projects. Historically there has not been a significant driver in the public or private sector to quantify whole building performance in comparable terms. The deployment of sustainable design into the building sector has initiated many questions on the performance and operational cost of these buildings.

For my high school senior project, we had to create something that engaged with the community and was completely self ran for 6 weeks before graduation. As I am passionate about leadership and community building, I decided to create a small group for young women where we cover different topics in a safe space group every other week. The project would be called ""Steeping Stories" as the small group meets at a new coffee or tea house in Portland Maine each time.
The outcome of the meetups was sweet and rewarding, with new girls coming each time, some returning faces, but all of us got to have community time with each other and bond over things women often struggle with. I created this poster as an advertisement for the project along with pamphlet handouts for each attendee.
My favorite meeting was our trip to Dobra Tea in downtown Portland, Maine where we covered Identity and went around the table sharing things we loved about each member or positive uplifting qualities about eachother. We all wrote down these qualities on the back of our pamphlets to keep whenever a pick-me-up is needed
For the Steeping Stories logo I wanted to design something feminine and bold that incorporated a warm, positive looking face to reflect good mental health along with a cup of tea. The script was hand drawn to give the logo a personal, comfortable feel.
Steeping Stories logo, poster, and pamphlet designed with Procreate, fonts done in Canva. Project launched April 2019.
Every other week when we would meet as a group I would hand out small mini pamphlets containing the week's topic as well as a quote, something to read, and something to watch that related to the subject. It was fun doing a little research for each week's topic and coming up with some assets that would be great supplements to inform yourself with. Sharing these often led to conversations about related content or videos from other attendees to look into.

ALBANY — Fears about Big Brother and whether student information could be kept safe from computer hackers loomed large at an education hearing on Wednesday in Albany.
The state Assembly's Education Committee was particularly interested in getting answers from state Education Commissioner John King Jr.
Lawmakers put King and his deputy, Ken Wagner, on the hot seat for more than two hours and grilled them about their plans to launch a new data portal called the Data Dashboard this winter.
Sensitive student information is to be encrypted and stored by a nonprofit organization called inBloom, which is funded by both the Gates and Carnegie foundations. The fact that the data will be stored by a third party and not their school districts has raised a furor among worried parents.
The Education Department has told parents that they cannot opt out of the program. Some lawmakers called that unacceptable.
"This has reached critical mass and the (education) department must respond to the concerns of parents," said Assemblywoman Catherine Nolan, D-Queens, chair of the Education Committee.
She told the hearing that the testimony made her even more anxious than she was before.
InBloom was also asked to testify, but didn't attend. A fact that made Nolan visibly angry. Numerous organizations and unions have raised questions about who would be responsible, if there were to be a breach in security. Several witnesses pointed out that according to the Education Department's contract with inBloom, the nonprofit would bear no liability if the portal were to be hacked.
Among those attending the hearing were some superintendents from the mid-Hudson.
Washingtonville Superintendent Roberta Greene explained that she has provided written testimony to the committee expressing concerns on behalf of students, teachers and the school board.
"As the Orange County superintendents have dug into this issue, our concerns have increased," said Florida Superintendent Diane Munro, who wants to know what data will be uploaded and what inBloom plans to do with it.
So far, the state has specified that students and parents names and contact information would be stored along with test scores, attendance, economic data, free lunch information and ethnicity. There may be more.
While inBloom has insisted that the information won't be sold, there were many at the hearing who expressed their doubts.
"As for Big Brother, for all of the parents in this room, this is scary," said Andrew Pallotta, executive vice president of New York State United Teachers.
Lawmakers at the hearing said they will look into new education legislation to give more rights to parents.

Osprey Performance is the official Dynamic Autowerx distributor!
Updated: Aug 29, 2022
We are proud to announce that Osprey Performance has been named the official distributor for Dynamic Autowerx in the UK.
Being B58 specialists, I felt that we had a gap in our offerings to the existing B58 enthusiasts that could fit between the mighty OP1000 turbo kit and the limited stock turbo and instead of trying to re-invent the wheel, we reached out to DAW in the USA and after some back and forth we have secured a distributorship for them in the UK.
I have found Shawn, the owner, to be a very passionate individual who stands by his product, we both share a sentiment that the customer must be 100% happy with our products and service and after going through the data and results for these turbochargers, it was a no-brainer that we had to add these to our B58 range.
We will be holding limited stock of both the V2.5+ Max Flow and the Ultra Flow for now, and from October we will be offering on site tuning for these units in a package deal format. I believe these turbos are the next step for B58 owners looking for a reliable daily driver that is capable of 10s 1/4miles and 5 sec 100-200km/h with stock engine and gearbox setups at an affordable price.
