The 5:2 intermittent fasting (IF) diet, more commonly referred to simply as the 5:2 diet, has become one of the more popular diet plan in recent years.
Studies have shown that the diet helps with weight loss and may also reduce insulin resistance, both of which are of particular interest for many people with type 2 diabetes or borderline diabetes.
One reason for the popularity of the diet is that it allows a certain amount of flexibility, in comparison to low calorie diets, on most days of the week.
The idea of the diet is that short periods of fasting prompt the body to repair damage but not enter a starvation mode of conserving energy.
Whilst the theory has yet to be conclusively proved, clinical studies have shown promising results for the diet, however it has only been examined over relatively short time spans, of less than a year.
The fasting days can be taken at any time during the week as long as you do not take 2 fasting days consecutively.
Clinical studies have shown that the benefits of intermittent fasting are largely similar to those of a calorie restricted diets.
Research has shown that periods of fasting can help to improve life expectancy and decrease risks of diseases including nerve disorders, Alzheimer's disease and cancer. However, whether these benefits apply to a 5:2 fasting diet cannot be confirmed as long term clinical studies have yet to be performed.
Is the 5:2 fast diet safe for diabetes?
Whilst shorter term studies have displayed promise for intermittent fasting diets, long-term safety of the 5:2 diet is yet to be determined.
As with any diet plan, you should always consult your GP or diabetes health team before making any significant changes to your diet as they could affect blood glucose levels or impact on your medication.
The fact that intermittent fasting shows evidence of improving insulin sensitivity may be an attractive option for people with a BMI over 25, borderline diabetes (prediabetes) or with type 2 diabetes but not on blood sugar-lowering medications.
The diet may be good for people who can handle single days of significantly restricted calorie intake in preference to modest calorie restriction every day.
On fasting days, the body will be forced to use stored energy from the body, fat and stored sugar (glycogen), which can help with weight loss and may improve blood glucose and cholesterol levels.
If you are on insulin, or hypo causing medication, such as sulphonylureas or glinides, an intermittent fasting could significantly increase the risk of hypos. Your doctor should advise you on whether the diet is appropriate.
If you have type 1 diabetes, following a 5:2 diet could make diabetes management more difficult to achieve and could significantly increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
If your health team are happy for you to start an intermittent fasting diet, they may wish to monitor you more closely to reduce the likelihood of hypoglycemia or increased ketone levels occurring.
What evidence is there of the benefits of this diet?
A study published in 2010 reviewed 107 women, between the ages of 30 and 45, with BMI values ranging between 24 and 40.
The participants were randomly assigned to one of two diets, either continuous energy restriction (CER) or intermittent energy restriction (IER). The CER dieters had a reduced calorie intake of 1,500 kcal through the week, while the IER diet group followed the 5:2 fasting plan.
At the end of the study, both sets of dieters lost a similar amount of weight on average, and similar improvements were also seen in levels of triglycerides, LDL 'good' cholesterol and blood pressure.
One area, however, where intermittent fasting was shown to be stronger than continuous calorie restriction was in reducing fasting insulin levels and insulin resistance.
Depending on your outlook, the 5:2 diet may be seen as more or less practical than a continuously reduced calorie diet.
The benefit being that on most days you needn't consume less than the daily recommended calorie limit. However, some people may find that calorie intakes of 500 or 600 calories a day are too low to be practical.
For best results, it's recommended to follow basic healthy eating rules, such as having a good intake of vegetables, fruit, and limiting intake of processed foods where possible.
During the fasting days, you will need to rely on very low calorie meals to stay within the daily 500 or 600 calorie counts.

Los Angeles Transportation Facts and Fiction: Driving and Delay
Time to bring the quiz to a close. We've seen in past posts that, by the standards of U.S. cities, Los Angeles is not sprawling, has a fairly extensive transit system, and is decidedly light on freeways. The smog situation has vastly improved. The final two stereotypes await.
Los Angeles Transportation Facts and Fiction: Transit
Photo: ceeb Inside a Los Angeles bus. In the last posts, we learned that Los Angeles is not a poster child for sprawl, that the air has gotten a lot cleaner, and that the freeway network is surprisingly small given the region's enormous population. What about the charge that Los Angeles's mass-transit system is underdeveloped and inadequate? By U.S. standards, . . .
Los Angeles Transportation Facts and Fiction: Freeways
We've been running a quiz about stereotypical views of transportation and urbanization in Los Angeles. Consider a headline that ran in The New York Times in 2006: "In Land of Freeways, Mass Transit Makes Nary a Dent." I'll soon address the issue of Los Angeles transit. In the meantime, did you, like The Times's headline writer, guess that Los Angeles . . .
Los Angeles Transportation Facts and Fiction: Smog
As part of an ongoing quiz about transportation in Los Angeles, in the last post I challenged the notion that the city is sprawling. But sprawl or no, Los Angeles's air is choked with its world-famous smog. Isn't it?
Answer: A half-truth.
Los Angeles Transportation Facts and Fiction: Sprawl
In a previous post I challenged you to identify which of six common stereotypes about transportation and land use in Los Angeles is actually true. The first is that Los Angeles has developed in a low-density, sprawling pattern. Answer: False. As of the 2000 census, the Los Angeles region's urbanized area had the highest population density in the nation. Yes, . . .
Los Angeles Transportation: Facts and Fiction
We at U.C.L.A. hear from reporters a lot, and they are often looking for a few quotes to help write a familiar script. In it, Los Angeles is cast in the role of the nation's transportation dystopia: a sprawling, smog-choked, auto-obsessed spaghetti bowl of freeways which meander from one bland suburban destination to the next. The heroes of the picture are cities like San Francisco, or especially New York, which are said to have created vastly more livable urban forms based on density and mass transit.

Why Is Everyone Twerking It Like Miley?
This is SO 2013.
by Jacinda A. Lopez | Jul 8, 2015
"Twerk It Like Miley" is probably the song stuck in your head right now.
Here's what you don't know about it: The song was released over a year ago by American singer Brandon Beal, featuring Danish singer Christopher (dude has no last name). "TILM" was obviously referring to Miley Cyrus and her twerking stint during the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. The single never became a hit anywhere—except Denmark. For, like, a week.
So why is this song suddenly so relevant in the Philippines? My guess is that Pinoys LOVE dance music and actively search for the newest dance craze. We had the "Macarena" in the '90s and "The Ketchup Song" in the 2000s, and it won't be long before "TILM" becomes the defining dance craze of 2015.
Before twerking it like Miley becomes passé (and we all know it will be very, very soon), here are a few reference videos to keep you up to date:

This is in an attempt to address the existing disparities in the distribution and use of broadcasting spectrum in the country. Frequencies are national resources that should be distributed fairly and equitably.
Earlier in the year, Royal Media Services (RMS) lost a bid to stop CCK from shutting down some of its transmitters. The regulator (CCK) said that some of the transmitters were located in non-designated broadcasting sites and interfered with critical communication such as aviation.
The new charging methodology is meant to ensure fair distribution of broadcasting frequencies, and promote competition in the sub-sector. The methodology will also enhance plurality and diversity of views and opinions as provided in the ICT Sector Policy Guidelines and the Kenya Information and Communications Act, CAP 411A.
This announcement comes when many Kenyans are still pending the 'Digital Migration'. The switch from analogue to digital was meant to be realized in 2012 but many consumers had not complied and felt that the time given was too short and that the rates for migration were too high and in some cases others would still have to incur a monthly cost.
The time frame has since been moved to September this year. Viewers without digital set top boxes or integrated digital TVs (idTV) will be unable to receive any new digital channels or services broadcast on the digital platform.


In the 1850s many people came from around the world to make a quick fortune in El Dorado county in California's Sierra foothills. Among them was a man by the name of Giovanni Napoleon Lombardo who, along with his sons, arrived from Genoa, Italy in 1857. The pickings must not have been all that he expected. In the early 1860s he had returned to the old family business, joining many other Italian immigrants in establishing a vineyard north of the modern day town of Placerville. While the wine industry in the region has had its ups and downs, this region has seen a resurgence in production beginning in the 1950s but especially into the American wine boom of the 1970s. Lombardo's old home now houses the tasting room of Boeger Winery, one of the regions leading producers.

Queen's University is one of Canada's oldest degree-granting institutions, and has influenced Canadian higher education since 1841 when it was established by Royal Charter of Queen Victoria. Located in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, it is a mid-sized university with several faculties, colleges and professional schools, as well as the Bader International Study Centre located in Herstmonceux, East Sussex, United Kingdom. Queen's balances excellence in undergraduate studies with well-established and innovative graduate programs, all within a dynamic learning environment.


In 1996, an international summit was held on world hunger. All participating heads of state, or their representatives, promised to wage a relentless war on this scourge – which really belongs in another age, not this one. These leaders further pledged to "reduce the number of undernourished people to half by 2015." As far as one can rely on the available statistics, it would be necessary to reduce the number of people suffering from hunger by 22 million a year to reach this goal. So far, however, that number has remained under six million a year, according to the U.N.
The situation could easily get worse. Several years of drought in southern Africa have caused a severe crop shortage which, in turn, has brought about a serious food crisis. According to a U.N. report, in certain parts of the region, such as in Zambia, "people resort to desperate measures, including eating potentially poisonous wild plants and tree barks" to ease their hunger. There is no hope for the situation to get any better before 2003. In fact, even the most optimistic experts predict that it will get worse.
Yet today, it is easily possible for the entire population of the world to be adequately fed. In the rich countries, the freezers are full of meat, the silos are full of grain, and there is no shortage of dairy products either. And who knows how many tons of fruit and vegetables are being destroyed every year by farmers who can't find buyers for their produce!
In agriculture as well as in manufacturing, the capitalist economy is capable of producing all the consumer goods needed by the population. The same capitalist economy, however, doesn't allow the whole population to benefit from its productive capacity. The hypocritical and powerless rituals held under the guise of international summits don't change this reality. The worldwide management of production and distribution of the wealth produced by humanity is too serious a question to be left in the hands of the possessing classes, who have proved themselves to be too narrow-minded and too selfish for this task.

6abc Action News (Fair Use) Remix by Samantha Grasso
Advocates have been rallying for her release from a maximum security men's prison.
Allies of a transgender woman have spent the past 24 hours rallying for her release from police custody—some of the time she spent in a men's prison—after she was arrested at the Philadelphia Pride parade on Sunday. Police arrested the woman after she attempted to set fire to a "thin blue line" flag, which signifies support for law enforcement, during the celebration.
Footage of the arrest taken by local station 6abc Action News shows that the woman, who has only been identified by her dead name, did not set fire to the flag, but does show police handcuffing her while she laid on the ground. Officers are then seen holding a grey American flag with a blue line painted through the center and several other items, including a canister of paint thinner.
The woman has reportedly been charged with attempting to commit arson, causing or risking a catastrophe, recklessly endangering another person, and related offenses, though the Philadelphia Department of Prisons and Philadelphia Mayor's Office of LGBT Affairs did not confirm the charges with the Daily Dot. Sarah Reyes, deputy communications director with the Philadelphia Mayor's Office of LGBT Affairs, told the Daily Dot that information about any charges will not be provided at this time.
The First Amendment protects the burning of the American flag as a form of symbolic speech.
Shortly after 5pm ET on Monday, Shawn Hawes, public information officer for the Philadelphia Department of Prisons, told the Daily Dot in an email that the woman's bail had been paid and that her release has been processed.
In the video of the woman's arrest, the crowd can be heard clapping and cheering after she's led out of the public area, though it's unclear what they are clapping for. A woman interviewed in the video said the woman was about to burn the flag "in a crowded area, so the cops had to detain her… Yeah, it was some kind of protest, I don't know what though."
According to Philly Socialists and local coalition Philly for Racial, Economic And Legal (REAL) Justice, the groups rallied at the Philadelphia Police Department Headquarters the evening after the woman's arrest. Philly Socialists refrained from commenting to the Daily Dot about the woman's arrest, stating they would release a statement after her release, and once she's spoken to a lawyer, deferring to the group's public Facebook posts for statements and updates.
The socialist group reported throughout the night and into Monday that the woman was scheduled to be arraigned at 1a.m. local time, but instead saw a judge around 4:30am, who had set her bail at $5,000, with 10 percent needed for her release. With the help of the promotion of the woman's arrest on Twitter and Facebook, the groups were able to raise more than $2,500 through Venmo and PayPal to cover the woman's bail, as well as any additional housing and court fees she may need covered.
Please see last update! she has been released!!!! Thank you to all the people who have shown support and solidarity....
Posted by Philly Socialists on Sunday, June 10, 2018
A fluctuating group of 12 to 17 people also took post at the police department throughout the night, rallying for the woman's release while supporters brought goods to the jail support. Misty, a 44-year-old transgender woman who attended the demonstration, told the Daily Dot that she does not know the woman jailed but found out about the supporters through social media. She joined the group between 10:30pm to 3am, she said, and brought candles, turning the event into a "vigil" of sorts. While Misty posted photos of the vigil, she later protected her Twitter account.
The group's later posts report that in the hours before noon, the woman had been transferred to the Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility, a maximum security men's prison.
"We just found out a couple of hours ago at this woman was transferred to a maximum security men's prison which is exactly what we were trying to prevent with the phone call campaign, vigil, and fundraising," Misty told the Daily Dot. "The absolute priority is for this woman's safety and for her NOT to be where she is right now."
Across Twitter, supporters of the woman have shared their outrage that she had been arrested for attempting to burn the flag.

— Olivia (@okbabinn) June 11, 2018
Others, however, denounced the woman's actions, alleging that the action could have been dangerous to others.
Ya know, it actually is dangerous to light an uncontrolled fire in a crowded city, particularly in the middle of a parade w feathers, confetti, and other flammable materials everywhere https://t.co/o48cepyA7X

i watched the police detain this woman because she was wearing all black and a bandana covering her face while carrying a can of lighter fluid at the pride parade. cops can be brutal pigs, but in this case, they were just trying to protect the lives of the people around her https://t.co/kJBhbi68AS
— paprika (@ejpalandro) June 11, 2018
By 5pm Monday, Philly Socialists reported that the woman had been posted bail, but was still being processed at the prison. The group redirected all support to the prison.
Philly Socialists released the following statement regarding her arrest, writing that police have no place at Pride celebrations, and that they represent an "affront to LGBTQ people and people of color, many of whom have who have died at the hands of police."
Press contact: press@phillysocialists.orgOur statement regarding our comrade's arrest:On Sunday June 10, a comrade,...
Posted by Philly Socialists on Monday, June 11, 2018
Misty said that she hoped people would know that the arrested woman was expressing her First Amendment rights and that even if she had ultimately committed a crime, her punishment was "exceedingly disproportionate." (Misty was not at the parade and did not claim to know what crimes were committed.)
"Especially heinous was the Philadelphia police's decision to relocate her to a maximum-security men's prison for several hours, after bail was posted on her behalf," Misty said. "A men's maximum-security prison full of rapists and murderers is no place for a young woman who made a political statement."
Update 5:10pm CT, June 11: This article has been updated to include comments from the Philadelphia Mayor's Office of LGBT Affairs and Misty, who attended the Philadelphia demonstration.
Update 7:30pm CT, June 11: Philly Socialists have identified the woman who was arrested for attempting to burn a "thin blue line" flag at Philadelphia Pride as ReeAnna Segin.

30 Days of Star Wars


(Source:WebMD Feature from "Redbook" Magazine) Amy Keller of Redbook Magazine writes about the 12 Most Embarrassing Beauty Questions. Top 2 Question is the question about bad breath, ranking second to foot odor. Apparently, smelliness is next to smelliness in this case. The question: Why does breath smell despite constant brushing? We also find out the answer to this other plaguing question -- Just what is the connection between Foot Odor and Bad Breath? The answer might surprise you.
When the normal bacteria on your feet interact with moisture trapped in your socks and shoes, they emit stinky sulfurous byproducts, says Doris J. Day, M.D., an assistant professor of dermatology at New York University. 1. What causes foot odor? The fix: Since dry feet equals odor-free feet, wear absorbent cotton socks with shoes made from breathable materials, like canvas and leather, and sprinkle Zeasorb - an over-the-counter drying powder - into your shoes every morning. Three nights a week, pour a pot of tea made with several regular (not herbal) tea bags into a basin, then soak your feet for five to 10 minutes. The tannic acid in tea temporarily inhibits sweat production. See your doctor if your feet are also red, swollen or scaly to make sure a bacterial or fungal infection isn't causing the smell. 2. Why does my breath smell despite constant brushing? Although brushing will help prevent cavities (so don't stop scrubbing), it can only mask bad breath, since the problem really lies within your throat and tongue, not your teeth. When the bacteria in your mouth lose access to oxygen (which can happen when you use alcohol-based mouthwashes, take certain prescription medications for depression or high blood pressure or simply sit with your mouth shut for a long time), they emit smelly sulfur compounds, says Harold Katz, D.D.S., founder of The California Breath Clinic in Los Angeles; this is the same principle at work with foot odor. Eating garlic and onion also makes your breath stink because they contain - surprise - those same sulfur compounds. The fix: Contrary to popular belief, a tongue scraper won't banish bad breath - sulfur compounds cannot be removed manually. Instead, keep your mouth oxygenated by drinking water throughout the day and using an over-the-counter oral rinse with chlorine dioxide in both the A.M. and the P.M. to neutralize sulfur compounds. (Try TheraBreath Oral Rinse.) Chewing on oxygen-rich vegetables, like parsley and celery, can also diminish odors. If these tricks don't work, see your dentist.

I'm troubled finding a Java-like function such as InstanceOf() for structs, that would potentially work like:
&self.instance_of() -> str

This would be used to process a ComplexMessage different from a SimpleMessage in a GUI, adding a preview and download button for the ComplexMessage.
Any ideas?

A: First of all, if you try to port Java OOP idioms to Rust you are going to have a hard time. Rust programmers use completely different idioms and patterns, which are more suited to the design of the language.
That said, you can compare types using std::any::TypeId. A similar function to instanceOf can be implemented like this:
use std::any::{Any, TypeId};

trait InstanceOf
where
    Self: Any,
{
    fn instance_of<U: ?Sized + Any>(&self) -> bool {
        TypeId::of::<Self>() == TypeId::of::<U>()
    }
}

// implement this trait for every type that implements `Any` (which is most types)
impl<T: ?Sized + Any> InstanceOf for T {}

And use it like this:
let msg = ComplexMessage::new();

println!("msg is ComplexMessage: {}", msg.instance_of::<ComplexMessage>());
println!("msg is SimpleMessage: {}", msg.instance_of::<SimpleMessage>());

Outputs:
msg is ComplexMessage: true
msg is SimpleMessage: false

Note that Rust does not have a concept of type inheritance like Java does, so this will only tell you if it is exactly the same type.

A more Rusty approach to your problem, as DK commented below this answer, would be to use an enum to model the fact that you have two kinds of message. Rust enums are nothing like Java enums - they are just as powerful as structs except they model the idea of alternatives, as opposed to aggregates. Here is one way you could implement this using the types you have and wrapping them up:
enum Message<'a> {
    Complex(ComplexMessage<'a>),
    Simple(SimpleMessage<'a>),
}

Whenever a function can only accept a ComplexMessage you can write the signature to reflect that:
fn send_multimedia(msg: ComplexMessage) { ... }

And whenever you can accept either type, use the enum:
fn get_msg_size(msg: Message) -> usize {
    match(msg) {
        Message::Complex(complex) => complex.content.len() + complex.file.size(),
        Message::Simple(simple) => simple.content.len(),
    }
}

Federal continues its advancements in bullet and ammunition technology with the release of the Edge TLR ammunition. Using a polymer-tipped, boat tail bullet, with a small lead core at the front, the TLR bullet has shown to give consistent expansion at distances out to 900 yards, and while that is an extreme distance for a hunting bullet, it's nice to know that even at lower velocities you'll get good performance.
The smaller lead core is chemically bonded to the thick copper shank, so should you have an up-close shot present itself, you know that bullet will hang together, even if tough shoulder bones are struck. The higher Ballistic Coefficient of the coated, sleek projectiles will definitely resist wind deflection and keep trajectories as flat as possible.
Offered in .30 caliber—at least initially—the TLR will certainly get the job done on elk, moose and bears, as well as making a good choice for the deer species across our continent; I wouldn't hesitate to take this load to Africa for any species of plains game, including eland. Federal has always been at the forefront of premium ammunition, and the Edge TLR is no exception.

After several sessions, the pain passed, but at the end of the entire course of treatment of pain resumed. Petrov demanded recover the cost paid its procedures, as well as compensation for moral damages for the damage caused to health, because instead of the promised recovery her condition did not improve.
The representative of the clinic "Health" stated that there was no harm to Petrova massages and water treatments could cause her back pain caused by a disease that manifested itself in the background produced by procedures. If Petrov continue treatment, the reason Bole, is likely to be eliminated. Petrov turned to the lawyer who, guided by the rule that the risk of not achieving the result must bear the contractor offered Petrova in accordance with the Law on protection of consumer rights to sue for the recovery of all amounts received by the clinic "Health", as well as compensation for moral damage.

Video : Skylar Tibbits: Can we make things that make themselves?
http://www.ted.com MIT researcher Skylar Tibbits works on self-assembly -- the idea that instead of building something (a chair, a skyscraper), we can create materials that build themselves, much the way a strand of DNA zips itself together. It's a big concept at early stages; Tibbits shows us three in-the-lab projects that hint at what a self-assembling future might look like.

USCIS Selects Final H1B Petitions by Random Selection - Almost a 50% chance for each Application
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that on April 12 it conducted the computer-generated random selection process to determine which H-1B petitions, subject to the congressionally mandated H-1B cap for fiscal year 2008 (FY 2008), would continue to final processing. USCIS completed this determination ahead of the preliminary schedule noted on April 3, when it announced it had received enough petitions to meet the cap for FY 2008. The 123,480 cap-subject petitions received on April 2 and 3 were labeled with unique numerical identifiers and selected randomly by computer. The chosen numerical identifiers were then transmitted to the appropriate service center for further processing. Source: USCIS Announcement Number 123,480 looks a lot better keeping in view initial estimates. A good 50% chance for each application to be selected. Update: 3rd May 2007 Hello friends, I understand your anxiety. But don't loose your hope and/or temper yet. Please wait ti
H1B 2008:USCIS released Preliminary Numbers
USCIS today released the final count of number of unique pieces of mail received for H1B petitions. It received 133,000 unique pieces of mail containing H-1B petitions. I guess, each piece of mail will ' mostly ' contain more than one petition, as no company would send each petition in a seperate package and its most unlikely that a firm applies for just one petition. Probably by the end of next week, we might know the actual number of H1B petitions filed and how lucky one must be to get through the initial filter. Source: USCIS Releases Preliminary Number of FY 2008 H-1B Cap Filings (26KB PDF) 04/05/2007 During Monday and Tuesday, USCIS received 133,000 unique pieces of mail containing H-1B petitions. This is lower that the original USCIS estimate of 150,000. USCIS based the initial estimate on amounts from manifests received along with the mail. USCIS reached the updated number following a physical count of the mail. Each piece of mail may contain more than one H-1B pet
H1B 2009: Will '2007 H1B Rush' repeat in 2008?
Update : Now its official. USCIS announced today that it received about 163,000 H1B petitions for year 2009 that starts from 1st of October 2008. About 31,200 of those are for Advanced Degree category. Read more . It will be a lottery to accept petitions. I wish you all good luck to you. So, to answer my question I posed in January, whether H1B rush will repeat in 2008, as expected, the answer is a big YES. Update: USCIS announced today that H1B Visa cap has been reached for both regular quota(65,000) as well as Advance Degree exemption quota(20,000). USCIS hasn't yet announced concrete number of petitions received. Read more.. . Last year, the visa cap for H1B petitions has been reached on Day 1. USCIS had in fact received about 150,000 applications and had to resort to 'lottery'(Random Selection) to pick up eligible applications. Many applicants had to wait quite longer just to know that their application wasn't picked up. Due to sudden rush, many had to wait for months

Palestine, we remember you! Why Eurovision 2019 should open our eyes
By Elizabeth Morley
Eurovision 2019 has come and gone, but the matter of broken lives remains.
Hidden away on a relatively quiet street in north London, there is a new club called Favela. Still yet to possess its own website and having a somewhat obscure venue on the London club scene, it has been recently refurbished in order to accommodate live music events. Situated just around the corner from the bustling epicentre of Camden, Favela, a Brazilian-inspired dancing hub, hosted an evening inspired by one of the most pressing matters of our time: the Palestine case.
Aptly, albeit awkwardly, named, the Not for Eurovision Party for Palestine, it entertained a huge throb of over 500 dissenting people on the night of the Eurovision Song Contest — a resounding outcry against the racist apartheid regime of Israel.
The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), alongside the voices of Boycott, Divest and Sanctions (BDS) group welcomed renowned artists for the cause, such as Lowkey, Mic Righteous, Wolf Alice, Dave Randall, the Hawiyya Dabke dance group and comedian Jenan Younis to celebrate Palestine against the Israeli government's hostility. While the crowds of Eurovision supporters, approximately numbering seven million in the UK alone, enjoyed performances from Madonna and dozens of other artists, the cries of Palestine could be heard from this small and seemingly inconspicuous club in Mornington Crescent.
The controversial nature of this year's Eurovision is a stark reminder of the realities of life for those under the hard hand of oppression. Contrary to previous years of Eurovision, where at least 25 per cent of UK viewers claimed only to watch it for its comical and engaging commentary, this year it was forced to become political, inconsistent with its aim to be a non-political actor on the world stage.
Located just 92km from the Gaza strip, Tel Aviv, although the location for one of the biggest media events of the year, is also the centre of worldwide contention and dispute. What used to be the largest city in Palestine, is now an Israeli stronghold. This is where over 5,000 people chose to travel to hear live music that would be broadcast all over the world. Oblivious to the suffering of innocent Palestinian refugees in and around Tel Aviv and across Israel, people clapped and cheered at their television screens as the Netherlands' Duncan Laurence won first place.
What a sad state of affairs for those just a few kilometres from the action. Those who have nothing to celebrate. Those without the freedom to travel, living under the ominous threat of death or torture by Israeli soldiers, forced behind stone walls and kept there with limited access to electricity and water, medical care, education and jobs.
How appalling then that there were people celebrating such a frivolous event, within such a short distance of people who dread to let their children leave their home for fear of arbitrary arrest and injurious, prejudice or racist experiences that haunt their lives every single day. It is truly difficult to describe, in words, the utterly abhorrent violation and discrimination of innocent people that has taken place in Israel since the Nakba in 1948. For those of us who know little about the situation of Palestine, surely now that Eurovision has shone such a clear, glaring light on that part of the world, it is time to educate ourselves and stand up for justice.
At Favela, from 8:30pm on the night of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019, 500 supporters of Palestine did just that, alongside the approval of thousands of others across the world joining us in the boycott. Standing up against abuse, oppression, injustice, brutality and suffering, the crowds that night were a testimony to a Palestine that has not been forgotten, despite governments across the world closing their eyes to the horrors. Despite the media unjustifiably dubbing the existence of pro-Palestine movements as anti-Semitic — we maintain that it is not, nor has it ever been, a question of religion. It is a question of fairness, of what is right and moral, a question of the universality of human rights, of the championing of freedom, of the integrity and decency of human life to support one another, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion and political views.
These words may be criticised, misinterpreted and condemned, but as a citizen of the world, just like every other person on the soil of our beautiful planet, of the community that includes everyone, I stand by them, and I hope my readers will stand with me too.

Nu Force Security Group's Guard With a Dog acts as a strong visual and audible deterrent for prospective intruders.
A Guard With a Dog is more cost effective and far more efficient than having several guards.
The fear of potential physical harm acts as a deterrent to stop perpetrators from pursuing property crime where a guard with a dog is present.
Criminals prefer easier targets with lower security levels, such as CCTV cameras. Our Guard With a Dog teams are highly trained and are the only solution that will reduce crime rate on your site by 100%.
Furthermore, independent security research shows that one trained Guard With a Dog can be as effective as up to six guards.
"We worked closely with Nu Force while on tour with Cirque du Soleil and their show Kurios. From the moment they were engaged, until the site was packed up after Covid-19, the entire team was a pleasure to work with. The guards are experienced, well-briefed and ready to work hard for a client. We would recommend working with them, we certainly will do so again."
Genevieve D. | TFCG
"We used NU Force Security to evict an unlawful tenant, and we were extremely happy with their services. We had previously hired another security firm, but they were unable to repossess the property as the tenant was violent and threatening. NU Force Security officers are experienced in handling conflict, professional and capable of getting the job done"

Good night, Chris. Thanks for staying up for the date change. How DO you do a puzzle so fast? This was a very easy puzzle, but my mouse can only go so fast.
A ggod mouse, fast computer and plenty of practice Plum; you get me most times on the hard and tough puzzles though!
ggod = good, obviously not applicable to the spelling capabilities of my keyboard!
Crystal skipped her class last night and came over. I reason I can't download the cookbook is I don't have works. She said that she will download it on her computer (new just yesterday) and bring me a disk.
Is this the same Stevie with the biceps from two day ago?
Taled to Jill this morning, everything is calm, though her BP is still elevated. She is already bored.
It is strange how you want to rest so bad and then when you get complete rest time, how quickly it gets old.
Dorthea - the cookbook was done on Word, so hopefully Crystal will have that disk, as well.
Happy anniversary, Plum! I've been here a little over 2 years, and I must say, time flies when you're having fun!!!
Rats! Just missed it!!! Good work, Jamie!
For those who gave me advice yesterday - the total retirement from the classroom is 8 days away. I have told everybody "NO", I will not teach for you next year.
Jamie can do the Happy 22 dance.
Congratulations Jamie. I do hope it works out for you. Though if my plans go as planned, you should be really busy with my little darlings.
Ha, Jane, once he gets accustomed to sleeping late we may still have a chance.
You are right, Karen, because I do like to sleep! But how will that work for babysitting?
Kathy & Jane - I'll need to look back and find the puzzle. Sometimes Fiona posts too late in my day for me to get to it.
*POUNCE* Karen! Did you just use a male pronoun?
Happy Friday everyone. The start of the holiday weekend here.
I am going to finish painting a bedroom today.
Might as well finish the page before I go back to work (2 minutes).

Shock as biased Justice Wamala refuses to recuse himself from Simbamanyo Vs Equity bank cases
December 22, 2020 Buisness, HOME, News, Uganda No comments
Reading Time: 11 minutes
High Court Justice Boniface Wamala has rejected recusing himself from hearing cases involving Simbamanyo Estates and Equity Bank, despite a request for recusal written to him a few days ago by Arc. Peter Kamya, the aggrieved party in the cases.
Kamya, a renowned city architect, wrote to Justice Wamala on November 9th, 2020, beseeching him to recuse himself from hearing the Simbamanyo Vs Equity Bank cases because of the explicit bias he had exhibited during the hearing of the cases and in his rulings. According to Kamya, in his sanctimonious and rather rambling ruling, Justice Wamala brings even into sharper focus his bias.
In excerpts from his ruling Justice Wamala states thus:
"The matter was coming up on 12th October 2020 for Ruling in Miscellaneous Application No. 679 of 2020 (hereinafter referred to as "the Interim Order Appeal") when Counsel for the Applicant informed Court that he wished to express their displeasure on behalf of the Applicant regarding how I, as the trial Judge, had handled the matters herein in issue. As such, the Applicant and Counsel wanted me to recuse myself from further handling of the main suit and any matter arising thereof. Counsel informed Court that the Managing Director (M.D) of the Plaintiff/Applicant had earlier on written a letter to that effect addressed to the office of the Chief Registrar and copied to this Court. The Applicant's M.D now wished to raise the application orally before me."
The plaintiff/applicant, Simbamanyo, filed HCCS NO 198 OF 2020 i.e. the Main Suit against the defendants/respondents Equity Bank and Bank One challenging the legality of the credit facilities advanced to them by the defendants and seeking a number of declarations and orders.
On the 18th of June Simbamanyo, filed application No. 394 of 2020 referred to as the temporary injunction seeking to restrain the banks from enforcing the disputed loan facilities until the hearing and disposal of the main suit. The said application was fixed for hearing before Justice Boniface Wamala on 9th July 2020.
When the application came up for hearing on the said date, Counsel for Simbamanyo, the Applicant, indicated that the affidavit in reply had been served on them the previous day and they needed time to file a rejoinder. Secondly, they, Simbamanyo, had two days earlier, filed another application which was raising preliminary points of law that had the effect of causing the striking out of the Written Statement of Defense (WSD) filed by the Defendants and thus disposing of the suit.
This was vide M.A No. 445 of 2020 (hereinafter referred to as "Preliminary Objections Application"). Counsel for Simbamanyo prayed that the Court fixes the latter application first and the earlier fixed application (for T.I) be let to abide the outcome of the latter application.
In the same vein, Simbamanyo's Counsel sought for an adjournment and an interim order restraining all enforcement measures by the Bank. Counsel for the Bank opposed the application by the Applicant.
The Court allowed the application for Adjournment, allowed to fix and hear the Preliminary Objection application earlier than the temporary injunction application but declined to grant an interim injunction order that had been orally requested for by Simbamanyo's Counsel.
Simbamanyo was advised to file a formal application for an interim injunction order if they so desired. The Court gave a schedule for completing pleadings, for filing of written submissions, and for a Ruling due 11th September 2020.
In the intervening period before the date set for the Ruling the bank advertised Simbamnyo properties for sale. Hence on 13th August 2020, Simbamanyo was forced to file, vide M.A No. 601 of 2020, an application for an interim order of injunction (hereinafter referred to as "the Formal Interim Order Application") restraining the Bank from selling, taking possession, dealing with or disposing of Simbamanyo's mortgaged properties pending the hearing and final determination of the Preliminary Objections application and the T.I application.
This application was heard by the Registrar Her Worship Susan Kantange, who granted the application upon the condition that Simbamanyo pays 30% of the impugned outstanding loan amount of USD 10,514,501 to the Respondent before the date of the sale. The Ruling of the Registrar was delivered on the 2nd September 2020. The date of sale was said to be 7th September 2020.
On 3rd September 2020, Simbamanyo filed two applications, vide M.A 678 of 2020 for Interim Order of stay of the Orders of the Registrar (hereinafter referred to as "the Interim Stay Application"), and M.A 679 of 2020 is an appeal against the decision of the Registrar (the Interim Order Appeal).
Both applications were fixed for hearing before the trial Judge on 7th September 2020. When the applications came up for hearing, Counsel for Simbamanyo indicated that they had just been served with affidavits in reply in both applications and, as such, he needed to be granted time to file affidavits in rejoinder.
Counsel further requested that in the meantime, the status quo should remain until the parties are heard. Counsel for the Bank of-course opposed the application.
Justice Wamala's Ruling and the Set-up
According to Kamya, in his ruling, Justice Boniface Wamala noted that the matter was taking a peculiar trend that required peculiar solutions. This statement was a set-up meant to prepare the ground for Justice Wamala's subsequent confused ruling because there were no peculiar circumstances referred to.
What the plaintiffs, Simbamanyo, wanted was a stay of the registrar's ruling until their appeal against it had been heard and disposed of. What was peculiar about that? That was the normal judicial process. You appeal against a ruling while staying its execution.
Nevertheless, Justice Wamala made an order extending the conditional Interim Order of the Registrar for 30 days which would expire on October 8, 2020, and in pursuance of his sinister objective, stated that he would NOT extend that period and further ruled that this Order disposed of the Interim Stay application. The Judge then further ruled that he would give his ruling on the appeal on 12th October 2020.
This mismatch between the interim stay ruling and the ruling on the appeal was the set-up by the Judge. He knew very well that the properties would be sold well before the appeal ruling was made. And indeed, whether rightly or wrongly, the properties were sold.
On 15th September 2020, while the Ruling on the Interim Order Appeal was still pending, the Applicant filed two other applications; M.A 719 of 2020 seeking a stay of execution of the Order of the trial Judge vide M.A 678 of 2020 pending the determination of an intended appeal in the Court of Appeal (hereinafter referred to as "the Stay of Execution Application"; and M.A 720 of 2020 seeking leave to appeal against the decision of the trial Judge to the Court of Appeal (hereinafter referred to as "the Leave to Appeal Application".
The two applications were consolidated on the advice of the trial Judge, heard, and dismissed by the trial Judge on 6th October 2020 a day shy of the date of intended sale. The Ruling on the Interim Order Appeal was adjourned to 12th October 2020.
Application for Preliminary Objection – Miscellaneous Application No. 445 of 2020
In his further ruling Justice Wamala states that Simbamanyo claimed that despite Justice Wamala's Ruling that the preliminary objection application would be disposed of first, and despite giving schedules for submissions and a date for ruling, the Respondent's lawyers did not file their submissions either in time or up to date which frustrated the ruling and which transgression was just swept under the carpet under Justice Wamala's watch.
Meanwhile, Justice Wamala continued hearing subsequent applications instead of letting them abide by the outcome of the preliminary objection application whose ruling date had already been set.
His Lordship further stated; "Taking that into consideration, I directed the Registrar to first dispose of the interim order application and then return the file for further management. The complaint now is that I failed to properly guide the Registrar as I ought to have directed that the preliminary objection application be disposed of first! This is most surprising to me! First, it is against reason."
However, the Applicant states that there is nothing unreasonable or surprising about that because the Judge had the file and had given directives that the Preliminary Objection be disposed of first and even set the ruling date. So why did Justice Wamala not give the registrar guidance to that effect?
Justice Wamala goes on to state in an effort to exonerate himself of bias that "It cannot be the case that the Applicant wanted the Court to say what they wanted to hear at that particular time"
"Secondly, the reason the preliminary objection application did not take off even in its time is neither the fault of the Respondent nor the Court. As indicated in the background, after the interim order application was disposed of, the Applicant filed two applications; the interim stay application and the interim order appeal. These were definitely more urgent as the sale was days away. In my ruling in one of the applications (the interim stay application), I voiced the concern that I was not happy with the trend the matter was taking and the need to guard against the disposal of the subject matter while the court got engaged in a multiplicity of applications. It cannot be said, reasonably, that the very Applicant expected me to ignore the two urgent applications and direct the hearing of the preliminary objection application."
The Applicant, Kamya, says this is another sanctimonious statement because it is Justice Wamala's confused ruling, as already stated, that led to the selling of Simbamanyo properties.
The Judge further states, "When I disposed of the interim stay application, the Applicant chose to seek to leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal. Still, it is not expected that the Court would have refused to entertain the application for leave and stay of execution and insist on an application that the Applicant themselves had put on hold by their conduct.
"So, by the time the preliminary objection application came upon 11th September 2020, the Applicant's interest was elsewhere, explaining why they neither attended court hearing nor made any explanation for their absence. As such, the claim that the application was frustrated by the Respondent's failure to file submissions in time is most untrue. Similarly, the claim that I swept the Respondent's transgression under the carpet is equally unfortunate. The claim that I failed to offer proper guidance in the matter is most unfair to me. The above statements are unfortunate and are not true at all."
However, the Applicant observes that; "The Preliminary Application (P.O.) was to be determined based on submissions if the submissions were made and the ruling ready as alleged by Justice Wamala, why then was the ruling not readout even if both the applicant and his counsel were not present rather than state that by that time their interest lay elsewhere.
And that the Applicant chose how to proceed and very assertively"
The Applicant further adds that the Court has a duty to give proper guidance on how the case should be handled/ proceed and therefore shifting the blame onto the applicant's lawyers is sheer escapism on the part of His Lordship and is reflective of bias undertones."
Biased Comments On An Issue Before Me
The Judge further claims that during the hearing on 7th September 2020, he is accused of making biased comments on the issue of illegality which is the centerpiece of the Applicant's application for preliminary objection.
The comment was to the effect that illegality was not an issue since illegality is committed by two parties and I gave a hypothetical example of dealing in drugs.
Justice Wamala states that "Asking questions by the judge is a known judicial tool that is necessary to seek clarification and to ensure that the judge properly understands the parties' case before he/she goes to write a decision. The question may be hard, at times even mean; but this cannot be a sign of bias. A judge's decision is always based on facts, evidence, and the law. It is the duty of the parties to supply these materials to the Court. Even when the judge expresses an opinion that is not based on the facts, the evidence, and law on the matter before it, during preliminary hearings, the judge is not bound by such opinions. Upon being provided with the correct facts, evidence, and law, the judge is in a position to come to a proper and fair decision. Judges have the liberty and academic freedom to express views during the hearing of matters. One purpose of this is to drive the lawyers before the Court to do research to satisfy the Judge and this is one of the ways jurisprudence develops.
The Applicant states in response to this that he was never aware that a Judge can say things they do not mean during a trial, simply as a means of provoking the opposite party to do research to satisfy the Judge. Kamya says if he had known this he would not have raised this as aground for bias. And for this, he is indeed sorry!
Giving Ruling on the application for leave to appeal just a day before the intended sale of the Applicant's property:
Justice Wamala further states that he gave 6th October 2020 as the day for the Ruling in the application for leave to appeal which was one-day shy of the intended sale of the Applicant's properties, giving the Applicant literally no time to appeal my decision. The Applicant stated that even when I was requested to bring the date forward, I refused. The Applicant cited this as another instance of bias.
As already stated above and also contained in the Respondent's Response, all dates were agreed upon in court between the Court and both Counsel. No date was ever imposed on the parties on any of the occasions the matters came up. The dates were dictated by the dairies of Counsel and that of the Court.
When the 6th day of October 2020 was agreed upon and set by the Court as the ruling date, the Applicant or their Counsel did not protest. When a request was made to me days later to bring the ruling forward, my decision was only based on whether I could write the ruling earlier than the set date. I found that my calendar could not permit that, I declined the request and informed the parties. This cannot be evidence of bias.
During the oral address over this recusal application, the Court was informed by the Applicant's Counsel of what occasioned the request to bring the ruling date forward. Counsel informed the Court that after they left court, they brainstormed and agreed that it was dangerous to receive a ruling on 6th October 2020 which was a day away from the threatened sale. That is why they wrote to the Court the said request. The reason is legitimate but the Applicant has to appreciate that while they were discussing and changing strategy, the Court was looking at its calendar. The Court's calendar cannot be dependent on the parties' emergencies.
To this, the Applicant wonders if it is really true that the court cannot take into account the parties' emergencies?
The Applicant concluded that the comments referred to in their complaint, my actions, and body language leads them to conclude that I already hold biased views over their cases and they find my actions and conduct biased, inappropriate, and unacceptable.
As has been shown above, this conclusion has not been made out by the material produced by the Applicant and reasons given for my recusal from these proceedings.
On-body language, the Applicant stated before the court that when I was asking questions to his lawyer, I appeared angry and agitated. To him, this was reason to apprehend bias.
I must point out that for such apprehension to constitute bias, it must be a reasonable apprehension. It must be such that a reasonable and objective lay observer would gain the impression that there is a real likelihood that the particular judicial officer is biased.
To this, the Applicant states there was reasonable apprehension and many objective observers in court saw this and urged him to take it up with the Judge otherwise he would not have brought it up if he was the only observer.
Justice Wamala further states "It is a long-held principle of law, and actually one that spells out impartiality, that justice must not only be done but must be seen to be done. This is true. But it cannot be restricted to one party. Both parties and other independent observers should see that justice is done "
However, the Applicant says while this is true bias cannot be attributed to both parties to be termed as such. Bias in itself means being partial to one party to a dispute. Therefore, Justice Wamala's statement on this is misleading and is a cover-up!
Justice Wamala further states; "If this principle is restricted to one party's perception of justice, it will not only occasion a miscarriage of justice but will also water down the judicial practice. In adversarial systems, such as ours, parties come to court expecting to win but also expecting to lose. They do not come with an assurance of entitlement to a win. And the law is good and considerate, if the party loses but expected to win, they have not one but two chances to test the decision as to whether they are right or wrong.
That being the case, there is no reason a party conjures circumstances of bias against a judicial officer well knowing that if the judicial officer is probably biased, it will show in his decision and will be used against him on appeal – not once but twice.
The applicant's response to this is that while most of that may be true it was Justice Wamala's persistent frustration of their attempts to appeal his decisions and rulings that showed him to be biased, not that he actually ruled against them.
The decision of the Court
In all, therefore, the Applicant has not raised any ground that meets the criteria for my recusal from further conduct of the listed matters herein. The perception by the Applicant that I exhibited bias or lack of impartiality during the conduct of any of the matters has no reasonable basis. I, therefore, reiterate my sacred duty to do justice to all manner of people without fear or favor, affection, or ill-will and accordingly reject this application. I will proceed to hear the matters beginning with the preliminary objection application.
In view of the above observations therefore the applicant finds Justice Wamala's Refusal to recuse himself rather baffling.
In a similar matter, one learned mind observed thus: "IF ONE PARTY FEELS UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT A JUDICIAL OFFICER THE ONLY HONOURABLE THING TO DO IS TO STEP ASIDE

One of my dream jobs would be to travel the country dosing myself with veggie burgers to find the best in all the land and maybe learning how to make some good ones along the way. Until then I will just have to fire up 'The Lab' and experiment at the homestead. On my last blog post, I talked about volunteering at JBGOrganic and the mountain of veggies I received for my efforts. I have been dwindling down my pile and this is one of the benefactors of those gems. Veggie Burger Experiment: Smoky Sweet Potato Patties with Garlic cream found at How Sweet It Is. I made the patty and the garlic cream pretty much as instructed (pure genius adding the maple syrup to the yogurt sauce) and only made a few changes based on ingredients I didn't have: avocadoes and some that I did have: collard greens. Confession: I have never used collard greens, so I was trying to find recipes that were collard friendly and I had seen collards used as wraps and I said, "That's a wrap!" Uh, yeah, I just made that pun.
1) Prick potatoes all over with a fork and microwave for 5 minutes. Then Flip and cook for 5 minutes more. Remove and slice in half until cool enough to handle then scoop out the flesh.
2) Mash the beans with a fork and then add sweet potato and mash together. Add spices, salt, pepper, minced garlic, egg, panko and flour. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to make the mixture easier to form into patties.
3) Make the cream while the patty mixture is chilling. Combine the yogurt with the roasted garlic and the maple syrup in a blender or food processor. Process until smooth.
4) Form the sweet potato mixture into 4 patties. Heat 2 tbs oil in a skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the patties and let cook 5-6 minutes taking care to not disturb them until ready to flip. Flip them over and cook another 5 minutes or so. Add more oil if needed.
5) Microwave each collard (face down) for 10 seconds. Cut each patty in half and place in the center of the green, top with cream and onions. Fold up the short sides and roll to close. Cut in half. Repeat with the other collards. Bite into something healthy and scrumptious.

Fanindranath Bose's name remains absent from the histories of the 'New Sculpture' Movement in Britain, yet his sculptures, training and connections suggest that he was a part of this late nineteenth/early twentieth century network of sculptors who were primarily concerned with reproducing the human body in bronze. Born in India, Bose was trained at the Jubilee Art Academy and the Calcutta School of Art before moving to Europe to pursue his ambition to become a sculptor.
After failing to gain admittance to an Italian art academy or the Royal College of Art in London, Bose enrolled at the Board of Manufacturers School of Edinburgh. Scotland was to become Bose's home. He married a Scottish woman and settled in Edinburgh where he worked for the sculptor Percy Portsmouth at the College of Art after graduating from the Board of Manufacturers School. A Stuart Prize and a travelling scholarship jointly awarded by Edinburgh University and the Bengal Government allowed Bose to spend a year on the Continent where he was heavily influenced by Rodin's use of bronze (as indeed were a lot of the 'New Sculptors', including Alfred Gilbert, Hamo Thornycroft and William Goscombe John). Goscombe John bought Bose's The Hunter after its exhibition at the Royal Academy in London in 1916. Bose had made his debut at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1913, followed by an exhibition at the Royal Academy in London with Boy in Pain the next year. He entered The Snake Charmer and The Athlete and the Hound to the RA in 1919 and 1924, respectively.
As well as having his own sculpture studio in Edinburgh, Bose was recruited by Sayaji Rao III Gaekwad, Maharaja of Baroda, to teach briefly at Baroda College whilst he was making eight sculptures for the Gaekwad's Laxmi Vilas Palace and two for Baroda Gallery. The Gaekwad also commissioned a copy of The Hunter after seeing it in Goscombe John's collection. Bose turned down an invitation to work on the Victoria Memorial in Calcutta. His reasons are not recorded. Bose was elected to the Royal Scottish Academy after completing a group of sculptures in St John's Church, Perth. He died in Peebles, Scotland, aged 37 on 1 August 1926.

Cicciolina (Ilona Staller) biography
Cicciolina is a woman who was able to combine seemingly incompatible things, namely her reputation as one of the most outspoken stars of the porn industry and a successful career in politics. Cicciolina's fame came not so much from her porn movies as from her flamboyant life in general, full of extremes, condemnation by some and admiration by others.
Growing up in Hungary and moving to Italy
Ilona Staller, born on November 26th 1951, spent her childhood and youth in Budapest, Hungary. Already at the age of 13 she started attending classes at a modeling agency, and later got a job as a waitress in one of the city's prestigious hotels. Diplomats from the United States were frequent visitors to the hotel, and during her work Ilona, by her own admission, was engaged in gathering intelligence for the Hungarian intelligence services. After her marriage, she moves to Italy and soon receives Italian citizenship. It was in Italy that Ilona Staller had her fateful acquaintance with the pornographic film director Riccardo Schicchi, who had already made quite a name for himself with his steady popularity.
Filming in adult films Cicciolina began long before she came to fame. In the beginning of its appearance on the set was not too noticeable, it was often lost among the other actresses, not attracting strong attention from the audience. The first prominent role, after which her fame in the porn industry began to steadily increase, was the role in the film "Lycee Girl. One of the most explicit films, not only in the career of Cicciolina, but in general for the whole world at that time was the tape "Red Phone". After that, the porn actress became really famous.
In his work Cicciolina was not limited to starring in porno films. In the late 80's came out a book of her memoirs, which sold quite well. By that time the actress had less frequent visits to the set, and the last film of her participation was released in 1992.
Second marriage and future career
In 1991, Ilona Staller got married for the second time. Her second husband was the sculptor from America, Jeff Koons, with whom Cicciolina apparently broke out a special passion, as a favorite subject of the sculptures that he sculpted Koons at the time, were various sex scenes with him and his new wife. But such a tumultuous marriage did not last long, and a year later Cicciolina left the United States and returned to Italy. Already divorced from Jeff Koons, she gave birth to a child for whom there have been lengthy court proceedings for custody. Koons was awarded custody of the child, but still the son ended up staying with his mother.
Cicciolina's career as an actress has already continued on the set of serious feature films. In particular, she is known for her participation in the famous film "Replicator". Her shooting for "Playboy" was also successful, on the pages of which she appeared several times.
Success in the political arena
Ilona Staller became interested in politics in the late 1970s. She was sympathetic to the first "Green Party" in Italy, from which she was even elected as the main candidate. In general, political views Cicciolina found a great resonance in the hearts of voters, because its position was extremely peaceful. The actress has been a staunch opponent of the war in the Persian Gulf, once even stating that she was ready to sleep with Hussein himself so that his land has finally come to peace.
Due to her popularity as an actress and active civic and political position, Cicciolina enjoyed the support of the voters, thanks to which in 1987 she became a member of the Italian Parliament. During her tenure, she continued to advocate for peace, the fight against hunger, and the sensible use of natural resources. Nevertheless, she did not manage to hold an important office for a second term.
Cicciolina's views on the state of world politics and humanity in general were very critical. She was against the use of atomic energy, rightly believing that the nuclear potential of many nations is a serious threat to peace and life in general on the planet. She was also very concerned about the phenomenon of terrorism, and in one of her speeches, as with Hussein, she offered Osama bin Laden sex for peace.
Environmental organizations were in solidarity with Cicciolina's statements about the necessity of imposing substantial taxes on cars that emit exhaust fumes into the atmosphere. She was also concerned about the problems and shortcomings in the current health care system. She advocated detailed information about AIDS. Her frequent proposals to legalize drugs provoked mixed reactions from both her supporters and detractors.
Musical creativity
Ilona Staller was also known as a singer, with all of her compositions filled with pornographic content. She repeatedly said that her goal in music was to add sexuality and frankness to it. I must say that Cicciolina's records were very much in demand and sold out from the shelves of music stores almost instantly. The bright and frank image of the performer herself, her rich past as a star of adult films and erotic photos on the covers of records mainly contributed to this. Nowadays, the records with Cicciolina's songs are kept in many private collections, it is quite difficult to get them today.
Cicciolina is notable for her active political stance even now, and interest in her from the press still does not cool down. She still stands for full sexual freedom for everyone, for refusal of nuclear power, for equality and active struggle against pollution of the planet.
