Netflix renews Anne with an E for Season 3
Staff Reporter | On 16, Aug 2018
Reading time: 13 mins
Anne with an E will return for a third season.
Netflix and CBC have renewed the award-winning adaptation of the timeless Canadian novel Anne of Green Gables. It will continue to tell the coming-of-age story of an outsider who, against all odds and numerous challenges, fights for acceptance, for her place in the world, and for love.
The renewal comes shortly after Netflix's international debut of the second season in July , and just ahead of its Canadian debut on CBC in September.
"We are thrilled to be able to announce a third season of Anne with an E before season two premieres in Canada," says Sally Catto, General Manager, Programming, CBC. "Anne with an E delivered a rich first season, drawing in both new and existing fans to the world of Avonlea. We have no doubt that Canadians will continue to fall in love with this beautiful and heartwarming series for seasons to come."
"Through the storytelling of Anne with an E, the classic Canadian tale has transcended borders and found fans across our global membership," adds Cindy Holland, VP of Original Content for Netflix. "We are excited to continue our partnership with CBC and Northwood and bring the series back for a third season."
"Our beloved Anne will be 16 years old when we return to this season full of romantic complications, bold adventures and dramatic discoveries," comments Moira Walley-Beckett, Showrunner. "I will explore important, contemporary themes that I hope will continue to resonate with, and inspire and uplift, our audience."
The balance has worked well so far. Anne with an E received 13 Canadian Screen Award nominations in 2018 – the most of any series nominated – and was awarded Best Drama Series for Walley-Beckett and de Pencier. Walley-Beckett also won a Writer's Guild of Canada award for writing and Showrunner of the Year at the Rockie Awards as part of the 2018 Banff World Media Festival.
While the series continues to honour the foundation of L. M. Montgomery's novel, the third season will "creatively evolve", says Netflix. Indeed, Season 3 will explore themes of identity, prejudice, feminism, bullying, gender parity, diversity and empowerment through the lens of its fierce, starry-eyed, irrepressible 16-year-old protagonist.
Executive producers Walley-Beckett (Breaking Bad) and de Pencier (Beginnerd) will team up once again for this third run, with production expected to begin this winter for launch in 2019.

"Isn't the world a remarkable place?" That's the sound of Anne with an E making its infectiously uplifting return this summer.
Inspired by the timeless Canadian young adult novel Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery, the second season will continue to chart bold new territory, adding new characters and storylines while continuing to explore themes of identity, prejudice, feminism, bullying, gender parity and empowerment through the lens of its fierce, starry-eyed, irrepressible 14-year-old protagonist.
Anne with an E stars returning fan favorites Amybeth McNulty (Anne Shirley-Cuthbert), Geraldine James (Marilla Cuthbert), R.H. Thomson (Matthew Cuthbert), Corrine Koslo (Rachel Lynde), Dalila Bela (Diana Barry), Aymeric Jett Montaz (Jerry Baynard), Lucas Zumann (Gilbert Blythe) and Kyla Matthews (Ruby Gillis). This season will also introduce audiences to new characters including Dalmar Abuzeid (Sebastian) and Cory Grüter-Andrew (Cole). As Anne's beloved world of Green Gables becomes a much bigger place, these new faces promise to bring with them heartfelt lessons about love, loss and growing up.
"This is a tale that prefers to imagine than remember, and it's all the better for it. As a result, there's always a silver lining to every cloud, a live-life-with-no-regrets resilience that remains uniquely recognisable and undeniably heart-warming," we wrote in our review of Season 1, available to catch up with on Netflix.
Season 2 premieres on Netflix on Friday 6th July. Here's the video:

"We're super excited about the storylines for season two – conjured up by Moira and our all-female writing room and further expanding the world of ANNE (WITH AN E) in surprising, unique, and emotional ways," adds executive producer and President of Northwood Entertainment, Miranda de Pencier.

Netflix releases new Anne of Green Gables trailer
"It's so easy to love Green Gables, isn't it?" That's Anne in the new trailer for Netflix's upcoming adaptation of Anne of Green Gables.
But the road to our young heroine's home is far from smooth, as the new teaser for the series shows the girl arrive at Green Gables – only to find a brother-sister pair, Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, expecting a boy, not a girl.
Set in Prince Edward Island in the late 1890s, the show follows the orphan, who, after an abusive childhood spent in orphanages and the homes of strangers, is mistakenly sent to live with the Cuthberts. Over time, though, the 13-year-old Anne will transform the lives of Marilla (Geraldine James) and Matthew (R.H. Thomson) and, eventually, the entire small town in which they live with her unique spirit, fierce intellect and brilliant imagination.
It's no easy task for Amybeth McNulty, who plays the eponymous redhead – but judging by this trailer, which gives us a glimpse of her fiery optimism and best friend Diana, she's going to be a heroine who's hard not to love.
Anne of Green Gables premieres on Netflix UK on 12th May. Here's the new trailer:

Three more join Netflix's Anne of Green Gables adaptation
23rd November
Netflix's Anne of Green Gables has found its Diana, as three more people have joined the show's cast.
The drama, based on Maud Montgomery's classic novel, is a co-production between Netflix and Canadian broadcaster CBC. The basic story centres on a young orphaned girl in 1890, who, after an abusive childhood spent in orphanages and the homes of strangers, is mistakenly sent to live with an elderly spinster and her ageing brother. Over time, 13-year-old Anne will transform their lives and eventually the small town in which they live with her unique spirit, fierce intellect and brilliant imagination.
The production found its Annie only last month, with the casting of Irish-Canadian actress Amybeth McNulty. Now, her best friend Diana has also been cast: Canadian actor Dalila Bela, who has starred in Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Once Upon a Time, will take on the role. She is joined by Corinne Koslo as Rachel Lynde, Avonlea's resident gossip, and Aymeric Jett Montaz, who will play Jerry Baynard, a hired farmhand whose role has been expanded upon from the novel.
The eight-episode programme will debut on Netflix in 2017, alongside its premiere on CBC in its home country. Deadline reports that it now has an official title: the much shorter "Anne".

Following a worldwide search, Amybeth McNulty has been cast as the lead in its eight-episode adaptation of Maud Montgomery's classic novel.
Created by showrunner Moira Walley-Beckett, the co-production between Netflix and CBS will honour the foundation of the novel, but also chart new territory.

Over time, 13-year-old Anne will transform their lives and eventually the small town in which they live with her unique spirit, fierce intellect and brilliant imagination.
The Irish-Canadian actress was picked after almost 1,900 girls were seen by the producers of the show.
"Amybeth is a wonderful and sensitive actress who embodies all of Anne's qualities. She's soulful and inquisitive, mercurial and passionate. Her ability to convey pain and joy is breathtaking," said showrunner Walley-Beckett in a statement. "Amybeth is Anne for a new generation."
McNulty, who started acting at the age of six, she has already appeared in the feature film Morgan, Sky's TV series Agatha Raisin and CBBC's The Sparticle Mystery.
Also cast in the show are Geraldine James and R.H. Thomson. Production is currently underway on the project in Ontario, following early filming in Prince Edward Island.

Award-winning director Niki Caro (Whale Rider) has signed on to direct the two-hour premiere episode. Caro teams up with three-time Emmy Award and Breaking Bad's Walley-Beckett, who is writing the entire first season of the series, which is produced by Miranda de Pencier (Beginners, Thanks For Sharing) under her Northwood Entertainment banner.
"This all-female powerhouse trio undoubtedly makes ANNE one of this year's most anticipated television series," says Netflix. Production is scheduled to begin this September in Ontario, Canada.
"Anne Shirley is one of Canada's greatest gifts to the world, known and loved internationally, so we're thrilled to be working with the CBC and Northwood to bring this charismatic character to both new and old fans around the world," comments Elizabeth Bradley, Netflix vice president of content.
"Moira Walley-Beckett has written eight riveting, funny, emotional, surprising, beautiful hours of television. With the extraordinary talent of Niki Caro at the helm, we can't wait to deliver our show to Netflix, CBC and the world," adds Miranda de Pencier. "Netflix as our global partner means ANNE's indomitable spirit can now enter homes and hearts all over the world."
Walley-Beckett and de Pencier developed and will executive produce the series. Alison Owen (Saving Mr. Banks) and Debra Hayward (Bridget Jones Diary, Les Miserables) are also attached to executive produce and Susan Murdoch will produce.

Work is never beneath your dignity: Amita Madhvani
Neeva Jain
January 2, 2021,
Amita Madhvani, producer and co-owner of Equinox Films and Ram Madhvani Films, talks to G20 about her experiences. Excerpts:
Q. Tell us about the journey of Equinox Films.
A. Success on a philosophical level to me is being truthful to all the people who have contributed to bringing out the best in me— the learnings from parents, brother, sister, husband, son, friends, associates at work. They are the ones who patiently protect, guide, and support you as you find your stride, they nurture your instincts, and they pick you up when the going is tough. If I can live up to that, I can be called successful.
On the professional level, however, success to me is quantified against the earlier job well done so you are always awaiting your next challenge.
I started as a Production Assistant with Equinox Films (then called Cinematix). I learnt from great people like Sumantra Ghosal and Ram Madhvani.
As an assistant, I imbibed the culture of Equinox— creative honesty, transparency in business systems, respect for each team member, exposure to every aspect of film making, grit, the respect towards hard work.
As a co-owner of Equinox films today with Ram, we carry all these learnings ahead.
Q. You have burnt successfully the candles on both ends. How challenging has the experience been?
A. 'Let's Talk' had Ram and me walking into a long format for the first time – we did everything ourselves, budget, choosing the teams, production, post-production, festival entries, marketing at festivals, and then screening the movie at festivals like Locarno, MAMI, IFFLA to name a few, releasing the film in Indian theaters, seeing our first big 80 foot hoarding with Ram's name as director— it was all done hands-on. Each moment of achievement was a personal victory and immense joy, it compensated for all the hard work.
With 'Neerja' Equinox handled the entire production. I got my first glimpse at contracts, the business aspect of studios/financiers, marketing exposure, and how to protect the creators› vision while handling the business side of producing films.
The success of Neerja and Ram getting the national award for Best Film was according to me due to the Vision of the film was protected –Ram could tell the story the way he wanted to and honesty could be seen and appreciated.
Q. Share with us the model that has enabled you to retain the ethos of protecting and nurturing the creative component of translating ideas and scripts into reality.
A. On creativity for RMF- I onboard on a basic concept, the idea when presented- it is instinctive to protect creativity when you know it is good. We are a creative production house, we can produce the entire project from the writing to the production. We look for the correct association with financiers/studios, with whom our vision flourishes, the project finds its perfect match. Eventually, this is the most crucial part and it takes time. As sometimes one has been developing a project for 7 to 10 years, and it is delicate to maintain the balance while the project finds its correct house.
To protect a seamless transition of the script to contracts to screen and to do that gracefully is what I work towards.
Q. As co-owner how has Equinox production house been able to stay relevant?
A. Equinox Films has evolved and sustained itself as we are always adapting to the new challenges, changing work environment, changing technology. Creative honesty and having no creative ego is the mantra. In fact, it keeps us on our toes and staying relevant is important.
To maintain self-respect without hierarchy and value each member joining a project for us at Equinox and RMF is crucial. I work hard to maintain that work is never beneath your dignity.
Q. How have you all at Equinox adjusted and adapted to the new world amid the pandemic?
A. Like I said we just adapted. I have always believed in something my father believed and lived by the maxim that there is no age for learning. I discuss my work with my son and I learn from his observations. It is inspiring.
We have put Covid health and safety protocols into place along with our team so we can look after everyone who has believed and been part of Equinox and RMF projects.

A: You can use a Custom adapter by extending a BaseAdapter and overriding the required methods
 public int getCount() {
   return somevalie;
  }

  @Override
  public Object getItem(int arg0) {
  return arg0;
 }

  @Override
  public long getItemId(int arg0) {
   return arg0;
 }

  @Override
  public View getView(int arg0, View arg1, ViewGroup arg2) {

return view
}

For more info look at Custom Adapter Sample
and later create the database which you can access for setting the images to the custom list view.
suppose consider like
if(theFieldYouAccess == null)
{
 //Do what you want
}
else
{
 //Do what you want
}

In the getView() functionality

Powwow North West is back! With our last one way back in 2016 our host and fellow paraplanner, Jonny Stubbs, thought it was high time our Wagons rolled back to the North West.
Here's a quick refresh of what a Powwow is. A Powwow is an informal gathering for paraplanners to exchange views, learn things, fix things and share things. If you are a paraplanner in the North West of England then Powwow North West is for you.
Anything. Ok, that's not strictly true. It has to be paraplanning related. Because Powwow adopts 'unconference' principles, you get to choose the topics you want to discuss with your fellow paraplanners. Always packed to the brim with topics, we're guessing this year that MiFID II and GDPR might be hot topics to chat (cry) about, plus there's always room for sharing tips on report writing.
We guarantee you'll leave Powwow North West with some great ideas, answers and tips, all brought to you by paraplanners.
A: Doors open at 9.00pm for a 9.30pm start on 16 October 2018.

1. To restore the art community and art economy of New Canaan.
2. Regenerate the communal spirit that New Canaan so dearly remembers.
3. To bring gifts to the larger region by offering children the opportunity to develop through art.
The Art House will provide studio space for artists at a low rent, where they can create and sell their work to the public. The second part of the mission is that these artists will agree to provide art lessons and art immersion experiences to local kids: art in all its messy, glorious, hands-on involvement. Art is about getting your hands dirty, the feel of clay, the smell of paint, the splash of colors on paper. The Art House will provide these types of activities by bringing artists and kids together in a fun space. In addition to art lessons, there will also be collaborative projects to create public art. The Art House will not only reach out to artists and to kids, but to parents and other interested adults as well.
Rubicon Seven and the Rubicon Seven Foundation would like to thanks its partners in the creation of the Art House. The New Canaan Historical Society has worked tirelessly to ensure that the history of the building and the town are recognized as part of the project, providing images and expertise. Students from Norwalk Community College's Art, Architecture + Design department, under Jacek Bigosinski, will be involved in the redesign of the space.

Q: I lost my physical copy of Destiny, is there a way I can still play it? I bought my PS4 with the Destiny bundle, but I lost the disc and can't play it. Is there a way I can still play it without the disc?

A: The only way to play a game without the CD is buying a digital version in the PS Store.
But actually you can find a new Destiny CD at a very low price (if you're talking about the first Destiny release, without any DLC).

A: There is no way for you to play a physical copy of Destiny without the disk. You only are able to play a game without a CD if you bought a digital copy of the game.

A: Short Answer: No.
Additionally, purchasing the Digital Download version from the PS Store will simply create a second installment on the PSHD, but your account itself is unaffected. The only thing you can do is re-purchase a physical copy but don't be disheartened, if you have DLC it will remain because it's tied to your user account and already unlocked and licensed to the account, not the physical media.

A: If you only had the physical disc, then you need that to play.
Best option would be to go to the PS Store (or Xbox Store) and buy a digital copy.  It won't affect your character(s) as that info is stored on Bungie's servers.

A: A used Destiny disk will run you less than 10$. Put it in, and everything you've done up to this point will still be there.

We are planning to setup a web camera to view the Scrum Board. This
has to do with the team being highly distributed (200 km
apart) and us still wanting to maintain some sort of contact.

However - i am lacking a lot in understanding and interest in hardware
stuff as for example web cameras. So it took me quite some time to find
a good server. But now i have: [YawCam](http://www.snapfiles.com/get/yawcam.html)

It has all i wanted; you can stream video, it is easy to administrate
and you can do minor modification to the output/quality and such stuff.
And yeah - it's free also ;)

Get one now! Thank you [Magnus Lundvall](http://www.snapfiles.com/publishers/magnus-lundvall/index.html "Visit the website of the publisher")
who created it. Great app!

Foreign Minister G.L. requests UAE assistance regarding purchase of oil
Sri Lanka Foreign Minister requests UAE assistance regarding purchase of oil
Sri Lanka Foreign Minister Prof. G.L. Peiris met the Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology of the United Arab Emirates UAE Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, on the sidelines of the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) where both Ministers reaffirmed their commitment to further strengthen the good relationship between the countries based on mutual understanding and respect.
Foreign Minister Peiris explained the challenges which Sri Lanka is currently experiencing with regard to its external budget, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. He focused in particular on the country's requirement of oil, and requested concessionary arrangements from the UAE. Minister Al Jaber, responding positively, said that the UAE would be happy to assist, and proposed the establishment of a strategic framework to take the process forward. Both sides agreed to follow-up rapidly.
Minister Peiris recalled his longstanding friendship with the Foreign Minister of UAE Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan and stated that he was looking forward to welcoming him to Sri Lanka soon. Sri Lanka and the UAE have fruitful and constructive collaboration in the international fora including at the International Maritime Organization, the UN Human Rights Council and the UN Security Council. Both Ministers agreed that it is not acceptable to impose on countries various conditions and agendas and that a one-size fits all policy does not deliver results.
Minister Al Jaber stated that the one-size fits all policy is also not applicable to climate change, and it is necessary to define mechanisms that would allow countries to adapt and mitigate climate change without affecting their economies. He stated that the UAE had put forward their nomination to host the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 28) in 2023 and looked forward to the support of Sri Lanka.
Approximately 300,000 Sri Lankans are living and working in the UAE. The Foreign Minister expressed appreciation of the Government of Sri Lanka for providing employment opportunities for Sri Lankans and for looking after their welfare, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also thanked the UAE Government for introducing constructive legislation related to the welfare of workers. Minister Peiris briefed Minister Al Jaber on the progress of the vaccination drive in Sri Lanka and, while appreciating the relaxation of visas, looked forward to its further expansion. He also outlined the steps being taken by the Government to re-boost the tourism sector, specifically highlighting the ability to accommodate the specific priorities and requirements of visitors from the Gulf region.

Home Biographies and Eulogies Articles and Biographies Cambodia's Champion Fighters
Biographies P-T
Cambodia's Champion Fighters
Antonio Graceffo
Eh Phou Thoung and Oed Phuo Thoung are Cambodia's champion fighters but they live in squalor and obscurity.
Cambodia's Champion Fighters: Eh Phou Thoung
In the world of professional sports, politicians have long learned that great athletes make great PR. Basketball player Yao Ming is probably the first Chinese national to become a household name. Paradorn brought a lot of positive media attention to Thailand. And, you would have to go into the deepest regions of a remote jungle to find someone who has not heard of Tiger Woods.
In return for making the country popular around the world, top athletes are paid huge salaries. Boxing champion, Manny Pacquiao, has become a national legend, almost attaining god like status, and even made a run for the congress. The Philippines is a relatively poor country, and yet, Manny is earning $5,000,000 (USD) for his next fight. Muhammad Ali hasn't fought in over twenty-five years, but has been a goodwill ambassador of the US as well as the US ambassador to the Islamic world for years. Last year, he appeared on a list of highest paid entertainers, earning an income of $55,000,000.
Cambodia suffers from such a lack of marketing that even Angkor Wat failed to be recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Ask strangers on a street in Europe or America, and most likely the only famous Cambodian they can name is Pol Pot. The only other names which come up frequently in search engines and chat rooms are the two Khmer boxing champions, brothers, Eh Phou Thoung and Oed Phou Thoung. For overseas Khmers, the two brothers are major heroes. Fight fans around the world, would love to see the brothers fighting the leading champions of other countries, particularly Thailand.
Unfortunately, the big international fights never happen, as the Cambodian powers that be have more or less forbidden the brothers the right to fight outside of the country. They could have been respected international champions, brining pride to their beleaguered nation, instead, they live in absolute poverty, doomed to a life of obscurity with no end in sight.
Is this the right way to treat your national treasure?
Behind the ugliest slum building in Phnom Penh, is a neighborhood associated with prostitution, drugs, and gambling. Down a filthy dirt road, where local inhabitants sort trash to make a living, there is a two story wooden house, which serves as Eh Phou Thoung's gym, as well as home for his family and his stable of twenty fighters.
Slum building in Phnom Penh
Eh Phou Thoung, a veteran of more than 160 fights, sits listlessly on a wooden bench, with a look of tired boredom on his face. In spite of his ferocity in the ring, he is a kind and boyish fellow, who I have known for years. Every time I look at my old friend, I can't help but feel that his life is something that happened to him, rather than something he chose.
At age 36, he has gained a lot of weight and clearly lost interest in training.
"I still fight sometimes, but only a little bit." He said. He tells me his official record is 156 fights, with 7 losses and 4 draws. "No one in Cambodia can fight with me." He lamented. Now, when he gets fights, they are mostly with foreigners.
"I fought in Thailand once, on the king's birthday."
Prize money is doubled on the King's birthday.
"I won two and lost one."
Now, Eh dedicates most of his time to raising his twenty young boxers. "It is like a big family, and I am the father." He laughs. Eh buys ice cream from a passing vendor. He eats three while we talk.
Eh Phou Thoung's young boxers
"Some of my fighters can get as much as $80, but some only get $15. It depends on ability and weight."
To give every club an opportunity to fight, the two networks, CTN and TV 5, each allow one fighter from each club each week. Since the club gets to keep a percentage of the purse, this means that Eh's club has an income of some percentage of $30 – $100 a week. It also means that each fighter will only fight a few times per year.
Cambodian boxing is a far cry from Manny Pacquiao.
"Some of the kids don't even want to be fighters." Says Eh. "They want to be bodyguards. Sometimes important people come here to scout for bodyguards."
Flies buzz as the neighbors dump endless piles of trash on the muddy ground. They pick through the refuse like jackals on a fallen zebra. I am told that the house with all of the people crowding around and shouting is an illegal gambling parlor. The police stop by approximately every fifteen to twenty minutes and come out, slapping their front short pocket.
Eh gets slowly to his feet to work the heavy bag. He has gained about 15 Kgs since I lost saw him. The tattoos and cup marks from traditional medicine treatments dance across his skin as he kicks. As soon as he breaks a sweat, he sits back down and returns to his catatonic state. His twenty boxers return from running. They train on the cement porch in front of Eh's house. Other than two heavy bags, their only equipment is a pile of moldy boxing gloves laid out on the roof of an abandoned car.
Even overweight and lacking training Eh is a dangerous fighter. In three of his fights against foreigners, he managed to break the opponent's arm with a kick. Unfortunately, he has only had a few fights in the last several years.
"I really want to fight again." He tells me. "I never get to fight now."
One of the main reasons given why Cambodian fighters can't fight abroad is because Cambodia refuses to join the World Muay Thai Council. Khmers feel that they invented kick boxing and don't want to support a sport which has taken a Thai name. To circumvent this issue, promoters have come, asking Khmers to fight in the ISKA, American or Australian Kick Boxing leagues.
But even these politically neutral alternatives were rejected by the contract holders. Most people believe that corruption is keeping Cambodian fighters down. If Cambodian fighters start6ed fighting outside of the country, then local promoters and managers would lose the stranglehold they exert over them.
Now, in Japan, the K-1, the Super Bowl of kick boxing with prizes in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, is holding tournaments, aimed at South East Asian fighters, with weight limits as low as 70 Kgs. Either Eh or Oed Phou Thoung could qualify, but they both believed they would never be given the chance.
"We don't know how to go there and fight." Said Eh. "We need sponsors. And no one knows who we are."
When I told Eh Phou Thoung how famous he is on the internet and what a great hero he is to verseas Khmers, he didn't believe me.
The only time I saw Eh Phou Thoung is when he is training his five year old son. The little boy works the bag with his legs, throwing tiny little knee kicks. When he punches the bag, he shakes the pain out of his hands.
He is cute, and with Eh for a father, he will be a great fighter. But for what? There is no future for boxers in Cambodia. Which is a sad realization because boxing is the national sport.
"I am fighting tomorrow." He says, out of the blue. It was a charity event, sponsored by Wild Aid, to raise awareness and protect endangered species.
"Oed is fighting in Australia." He was referring to his younger brother Oed Phou Thoung, who is a brilliant fighter in his own right. "He's coming home tomorrow."
The next day, I stopped by the house to talk to the 26 year old Oed Phou Thoung, the four time champion at 67 Kgs. Oed has had over 200 fights since he was ten years old. When I asked him how he got permission to go fight in Australia, he laughed.
"I didn't tell anyone. I just went."
According to Oed, in Australia a lot of people were waiting for him to fight, but the fight had been cancelled twice, by the power people in Cambodia. As a result, ticket sales were poor for this fight, since people didn't believe it was going to happen.
Although Oed helps train the fighters at Eh Phou Thoung's gym, his brother is not his manager. His contract is held by someone else, and he is only permitted to fight on TV 5. He is also not permitted to fight or leave the country without permission.
In Australia Oed Phou Thoung won his bout and earned a purse of $500 Australian after deductions for passport and visa. "But this is good compared to Cambodia." He assured me. "In Cambodia , when I fight a foreigner I gets $300. If I fight a Khmer, I only get $150."
He said the hardest thing about the Australia fight was fatigue, as he arrived and fought the very next day.
"In Cambodia I can only fight about once every three months. So, the money is very little."
"The problem is when the sponsors send money from abroad it doesn't reach me." It only reaches the boss. "That's why we only have two boxing sacks to train twenty fighters."
Oed said that in a perfect world he would get to fight and then rest two or three days before fighting again. I told him that in other countries, fighters only fought once every few months. I asked if he had heard of Muhammad Ali. He said that he had. He was shocked when I told him that Muhammad Ali had only about 55 fights in his life. Oed had had more than that by his 18th birthday. And his combined earnings for his entire career probably amounted to only a few thousand dollars.
To make ends meet, Oed worked as part of the crew at TV 5, helping the doctor with injured fighters.
"One boxer, Phin Sophal, committed suicide." Said Oed, sadly. "He had been very famous, with a lot of fights. He drank and took drugs, then cut his own throat. They took him to the hospital and the doctors saved him. But the wound reopened and he died."
Things are hard for fighters everywhere. And the ring is full of sad stories. But the hopeless situation facing Khmer boxers is unparalleled in any other country.
Oed got up and worked the bag, pow, pow, pow, slap, slap, bang. The whole house shook as his knee left deep dents in its surface. His knees were clearly as well developed as his shins. Every muscle in his body was absolutely taught, perfectly trained.
Unlike his brother, Oed was still training. He had a glimmer of hope in his eye. Maybe his unauthorized trip to fight in Australia set a precedent. Maybe he would take control of his life and make some serious money. Or, maybe at age 26, his prime was past, and he was doing too little too late. Maybe he would manage Eh Phou Thoung's young son, and help raise him to be a champion on the international circuit.
Either way, Cambodian had missed a great PR opportunity and had squandered a national treasure.

Blade Runner 2049 adds composers Hans Zimmer and Benjamin...
News I By Miles BoweI 31.07.17
Blade Runner 2049 adds composers Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch
The film is out this October.
Two months away from its highly anticipated release, Blade Runner 2049 has added composers Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch to write additional music for the film, Film Music Reporter points out.
Director Denis Villeneuve revealed the shakeup in an interview with Studio Cine Live, explaining that his frequent musical collaborator and original composer, Jóhann Jóhannsson, was still involved in the project.
"[Jóhann] composed the main theme as planned but, given the magnitude of the task, Benjamin Wallfisch and Hans Zimmer joined the team to help Johann," Villeneuve said in a translation of the interview adding, "It's hard to [follow] Vangelis!"
Zimmer needs no introduction, but Wallfisch has gradually made a name for himself as a protégé. In addition to being a member of Zimmer's company, both are credited for music in Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk and last year's Hidden Figures.
Listen to Wallfisch's composition 'Home' from Dunkirk below and look for Blade Runner 2049 October 6.

3 Strategic Considerations for Hospitals and Health Systems
- Friday, May 24th, 2013 Print	| Email
As an industry, healthcare is undergoing some major changes that have put pressure on hospitals and health systems, regardless of size or location.
In a May 23 webinar hosted by Becker's Hospital Review, Scott Becker, JD, CPA, publisher of Becker's Hospital Review and partner with McGuireWoods in Chicago, discussed several strategy issues and other trends happening in healthcare today.
Mr. Becker discussed some general issues hospitals are facing, such as the erosion of pure fee-for-service medicine. "[There's] more disruption in healthcare at this time than in any time in the last 10 years," he said. "What we're seeing in a lot of systems is slight erosion in profit as opposed to the doomsday scenarios people have expected." However, Mr. Becker also noted that tepid economic growth combined with increased taxes and the 2 percent sequester cut is "not a good sign for any of us."
General issues aside, Mr. Becker focused on three major strategies during the webinar that hospitals and health systems should spend time on, considering the current state of the healthcare industry.
1. Physician alignment. Hospitals and health systems may need to adjust or simply fine-tune their physician alignment strategies to remain competitive, especially considering the looming physician shortage. Mr. Becker pointed out one strategy in particular that is picking up steam. "Clearly right now the dominant strategy is moving toward employment," he said. Employment gives organizations legal flexibility and more flexibility to form an integrated care system.
If hospitals do go the employment route, Mr. Becker stressed that the payment must be in the "range of fair." "It has to be in a spot where the physician doesn't feel disrespected each day," he says.
Even though physician employment has been dominating the industry, Mr. Becker added that many other alignment strategies are still being pursued by many organizations, including co-management agreements, joint ventures, gain sharing and medical directorships, among others.
2. Sustainability. While the general trend in healthcare has been consolidation, many hospitals wish to remain independent. Mr. Becker shared three core questions independent hospitals can ask themselves in order to discern if they can remain independent:
• Can it be the go-to hospital in the area?
• Can it position itself so that payors cannot go around the hospital?
• Can it afford the investments it takes to position itself in such a way?
3. Accountable care organizations. ACOs are still fairly new in healthcare and most hospitals and health systems have not been eager to join the movement. "In terms of ACOs, the jury is still sort of out on how effectively they will operate and what percentage of the patient population will be served by them and how they'll be implemented," Mr. Becker says.
A few health systems and physician groups have gotten ahead of the pack and are moving rapidly away from ACOs and pay-for-performance arrangements, but that is not the case for the majority of hospitals and health systems. "I think many systems have their foot in the door and have to be constantly in very close discussion with payors about new emerging models of pay, but concerned to take the jump other than in incremental pieces," Mr. Becker says.

Uncategorized Video
by William Ruben Helms November 8, 201403:45 July 20, 2015
Over the past decade or so, soul music has seen an incredible resurgence in popularity, and in fact, much like EDM and hip-hop, soul music is essentially part of a musical lingua franca. Indeed, soul music, much like it's modern forebears has a tendency to transcend cultural, racial, classist, gender and international lines. Granted, every city and region across the world has its own peculiar sound. After all, you wouldn't expect a Chicago soul act to sound like a band from a soul act from Baton Rouge; nor would you expect an Australian or French soul band to sound exactly alike either; however, the themes of struggling to survive with your dignity intact; of falling in and out of love; of being betrayed and mistreated are universal and timeless.
Even if you were completely unaware of this site's increasing international focus over the past year to 18 months or so, there would be some things that you, dear reader, would be aware of and would have been aware of for some time — that is unless you had lived in a cave for the past 30 years. In particular, you'd probably know of at least five or six bands that have hailed from Australia. So you'd know that Australia has a vital music scene, although odds are that the bands would likely be — a rock band or a electronica act, and that they'd likely be white. And perhaps in some way that makes Australian aboriginal singer/songwriter Emma Donovan so deeply intriguing to me …
But let's go through some necessary background: Like a lot of soul singers, Donovan grew up singing in her maternal grandparents's church in New South Wales. Her first secular vocal gigs were with the Donovans, a band that was comprised of Emma's mother and her five uncles. And with the Donovans, Emma sang and played country; however, she was deeply drawn to her father's old blues and soul records.
Years later, Emma Donovan had been touring and recording with several of Australia's indigenous music mainstays while developing as a solo artist, when she had met the members of her future backing band, The Put Backs. They bonded over their mutual love of old school, American blues and soul and started crating the blues and soul infused sound that Donovan had longed to create for most of her life.
"Daddy," the first single off the Emma Donovan and The Put Backs' latest album, Dawn is immediately recognizable as part of the great soul revival; however, unlike most of the contemporary focus on the soul sound of the 60s, "Daddy" to my ears takes it cues sonically from the conscious and psychedelic soul of the 70s — i.e., think of Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, Parliament Funkadelic, Dennis Edwards-era The Temptations and others. And much like the work of those artists, the sound and lyrics are bolstered in a similar gritty realism — in other words songs about grief, struggle and redemption, even if small.
Interestingly, the album was recorded in a similar fashion to the old soul records of the 60s and 70s recorded live to analog tape and it gives a song like "Daddy," a deeply period specific sound and yet it's extraordinarily contemporary.
The official video has a pretty simple concept – close up footage of Emma Donovan singing the song, spliced with late night footage of cars passing through the night to evoke the moody and lonely feel of the song. And just in time for the blazingly psychedelic guitar solo, the footage is run through a kaleidoscope filer, and it evokes a dizzying, anxious feel.

Tampa Bay Rays: Ryan Sherriff Making Case for 1st Opening Day Roster
Ryan Sherriff (Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images) /
Ryan Sheriff (Photo by Julio Aguilar/Getty Images) /
In 2013 he ruled over the competition with a giant iron hammer that only he and Thor could use to build a wooden deck. 'The Officer on Duty' (the nickname I just coined for him) registered a 2.31 ERA in 78.0 innings pitched at High-A Palm Beach.
He was named Starting Pitcher of the Year again in 2013.
After causing total destruction in Palm Beach the Cardinals moved him to Springfield, Illinois. This was a good move for his career but had to be a geographical bummer. He didn't let the fact that he was in Illinois discourage him as he cruised to a 3.33 ERA.
Starting Pitcher of the Year Becomes a Reliever
The following season he transitioned from Springfield to AAA-Memphis. He only received four innings of playing time in Triple-A, but he made it. He was one step from "The Show." He transitioned from a starter to a reliever this season.
Sherriff bounced between Double-A and Triple-A in 2015 and became a fixture in Memphis in 2016. During the 2016 season in AAA-Memphis, opposing hitters might as well have come to the plate in their pajamas because Sherriff was lights out…as in bedtime.
He earned a spot on in the Arizona Fall League at the end of the season. The Arizona Fall League is where each team sends six of their top prospects to compete at the end of the season. He was knocking on the door of the majors.
He posted a 2.84 ERA over 66.2 innings with an elite 59.2% groundball rate. Prior to the 2017 season, the former late-round draft pick was on some important radars. He was selected to participate in the World Baseball Classic as representative of team Israel.


Hey-o! Suddenly it's nearly seven in the evening and I've yet to even think about a MoFo post. What does that mean? It's survey time! Imma do one of the original MoFo surveys, because I filled out the 2010 version already.
Almond! Generally Almond Breeze, but I'll admit it – I like Silk's version, too.
I'm getting ready to dive into Viva Vegan! tomorrow, and I'm pretty excited. But I'm not going to share exactly what I'm planning to make, because that would ruin the surprise!
I really freakin' love kettle corn.
Geeze… I don't know. I tried making some apple bread from scratch once, and it was just weeeird. I hadn't figured out the science of baked goods at that point.
Uh. Cucumbers. I'm not really a fan of any other pickled things… it's that whole aversion to vinegar, y'know?
Well, there's my infamous "Crap I Want to Make" Pages document, in which I store terribly-organized links to bloggy recipes. Then I tend to use tiny bits of paper as placeholders for recipes that catch my fancy while I'm reading through a cookbook, which inevitably means that my cookbooks have bits of paper between every page. Heh.
How dare you. Umm. Dark chocolate… kale… peanut butter? I detest this question.
Every Christmas morning we ate cinnamon buns and grapefruits. Still do, actually; last year my mommy made vegan cinnamon buns and they were out of this world.
I've really only tried a few, but Coconut Bliss is the shizz.
Oy. I don't really have many fancy-pants appliances right now, sooo… my stove. Hahah.
I have an American Girl cookbook back home somewhere. Hmm – when I go back to my parents' house for Christmas, I should totally dig it out and veganize some of the recipes!
Let's be honest – any decadent baked good will do.
I love baking. As for time of day, I like afternoon cookery, but I'm only home in the afternoon on weekends, alas.
A glass serving plate, a giant tin of sesame sticks, a martini shaker, a ridiculous cow-udder shot glass, and vodka.
A big ol' bag of cherry tomatoes I froze during the summer, kale I also froze during the summer, and tons of frozen baked goods!
I just went grocery shopping! Umm… still need some EB and vanilla, though.
Woodman's. I love its lack of fanciness and its surprisingly large stock of organic/natural/vegan-friendly foods.
I want to work on some of the traditional Portuguese recipes my Grammy and Vava used to make when I was a kid.
Oh pshaw. I love you all!
Okay, I'm a boring purist type person – I really only indulge in dark chocolate!
If we're talking price, I bought a bottle of applejack brandy the other day. IT'S BEEN A ROUGH WEEK; DON'T JUDGE.
…dude, I filled out this survey last year, too. Aaand most of my answers haven't changed, although there's 200% more alcohol in this post. SRSLY DON'T JUDGE.
Yay; hooray; that was fun… but this post is lacking something visual that's not too abysmal. How about a stack of fluffy, whole wheat pancakes? I'll post the recipe for these babies soon, but for now you can just look at them in all their fluffy, puffy glory.
P.S. Lest you think it was sunny and warm today, it wasn't. This is an old, previously-unseen photo. It was grey and rainy and cold… all the better to get a head start on my holiday knitting! Woohoo!
How's the weather where you live? What did you do today?
Ah, your pancakes look great, not too abysmal at all…say, that reminds me, I think tonight I'll take in an old Steve Reeves movie…I'll be very interested to see your Portugese conversions! I like this survey and it was fun reading your answers.
Ahhh, Kelly, I LOVE Woodman's! I would go there with my grandparents when they were living in Madison. Awwww, I'm having Grandpop nostalgia. :) Thanks for posting this!
:) Yay! Glad to be of service.
I am a lover of kettle corn, too!

Amazing Opportunity to Travel with Weleda
Natural and organic cosmetic & herbal medicine producer, Weleda, are giving one lucky winner, the opportunity to visit 11 different Weledas around the world in a three month Global Garden journey.
Weleda, the world's leading manufacturer of certified natural and organic cosmetics and herbal medicines, is delighted to announce its new Global Garden Campaign. This initiative has been devised to highlight the truly international and sustainable nature of Weleda's business - with gardens all around the globe - and to give one intrepid explorer the chance to experience it at first hand!
Weleda is launching a unique Competition quite unlike anything the company has ever previously undertaken. The Winner will have a one-off opportunity to travel the world next spring on a carbon neutral journey, and to visit the different Weledas from March to June 2018.
Weleda will be looking for entrants from 18 different countries where Weleda operates, who can be sent through to the next round:
* Argentina
* Australia
* Austria
* Belgium
* Chile
* Czech Republic
* France
* Germany
* Italy
* Netherlands
* New Zealand
* Russia
* Spain
* Sweden
* Switzerland
* UK/Ireland
* USA
Qualifying candidates from each country will then go through to the next stage of the competition, which will be open to a public vote. Each hopeful globetrotter will look to get as many votes as possible via a dedicated Global Garden online platform, in order to go through to the regional shortlist of 6 candidates for the 18 regions. The final regional selection will be made by the Weleda judging panel on 12 September 2017. One Finalist from each country will then go forward to the international selection process in October 2017. Finalists must be free to travel out to Weleda Germany for this final phase of the competition (see footnote*).
In Germany, all 18 international Finalists will experience Weleda's extensive organic herb gardens which are managed using strict biodynamic methods, where they will join in with the harvest. Finalists will also visit Weleda's production suite where the range is made, and meet Weleda's beauty expert Lilith Schwertle. This final stage of the assessment will include a series of practical workshops (writing, photography, social media, film) to enable candidates to really distinguish themselves.
At the end of this final audition, one Global Garden Winner will be selected by Weleda's panel of experts, and this successful 'horticultourist' will be invited to pack a suitcase and head off on an incredible journey touring 11 different Weledas!
Sydney / Australia
Havelock / New Zealand
Buenos Aires / Argentina
Sao Paulo / Brazil
Zoetermeer / The Netherlands
Ilkeston / United Kingdom
Arlesheim / Switzerland
Huningue / France
Stockholm / Sweden
Prague / Czech Republic
Tuscany / Italy
Travelling through 11 different countries will at times be challenging but also wonderfully exciting and rewarding – what a journey of discovery! The Winner will learn about many plant ingredients used in Weleda cosmetics and medicines, will meet the growers, join each Weleda team internationally for a few days, and come away with a global overview of Weleda that will be the envy of the company's 2,400 employees!
Photographers, vloggers, bloggers, illustrators and other artistic types are encouraged to enter because there is so much scope for creative development in this project. The Global Garden Winner will be expected to compile imaginative and entertaining reports at each leg of the journey, which will be published on the Weleda Global Garden website.
The project is very much in the time-honoured tradition of the 'Grand Tour' that was popular centuries ago, when people would travel to different countries over an extended period of months, educating themselves along the way, keeping a journal or sketch book to document the journey, and enriching their lives by soaking up the landscape, culture and sights at each stop.
Travel to each destination on this particular grand tour will be paid by Weleda, together with accommodation and subsistence at these stops, with some social events organised by Weleda. But any additional exploration or sightseeing along the way will be at the Winner's expense. Contracted to work on the project over the three months, the Winner will have some free time to take in a few nearby sights at each destination, and will be given a very welcome 10,000 euros spending money to be able to really enjoy the journey and take home a few mementos.
This is an opportunity of a lifetime for someone who is looking for a springboard for personal or professional development, to expand his or her horizons, appreciate our beautiful planet, and head off on a magical adventure!
For more information and to enter visit: www.weledaglobalgarden.com
Weleda UK will be accepting applications from within the United Kingdom and Ireland at www.weledaglobalgarden.com/gbr between 8 August and 10 September 2017. Entrants need to meet the competition criteria and must:
- Be over the age of 18
- Be capable of independent travel, self-motivating, and happy to journey solo much of the time
- Have excellent written and spoken English, and ideally a natural flair for writing as the Winner will be reporting on their journey
- Be healthy and fit with plenty of stamina – at times the travel will be long and tiring
- Be able to freely travel to all the countries on the tour with the relevant visas
- Be available to travel for 3 months uninterrupted between mid March and mid June 2018
- Agree to transfer of copyright for content created for the project (text, images etc) to Weleda
- Be prepared to travel to Germany for the final audition 9-13 October 2017
* footnote: whilst travel in October to Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany, will be covered by Weleda, shortlisted candidates will be expected to organise their own passport/visa and up to date vaccinations for this stage of the competition.

As the beautiful city of Cape Town continues to innovate with more and more incentives for travellers to enjoy, a dedicated city guide showcasing what's on offer has proved to be increasingly popular. Capetown.Mobi, which launched three years ago, is free to use and available via mobile devices or desktops.
Often described as one of the most beautiful cities in the world with eye catching colours and spectacular designs in abundance, Cape Town is home to stunning beaches, vineyards and the rugged wilderness of Table Mountain.
Some of the highlights include the Bo-Kaap museum - surrounded by cobbled streets and charming colourful guesthouses; stylish restaurants and bars; dozens of galleries exhibiting traditional African arts and crafts; and in recent months the destination has even been gaining a reputation as the fashion centre of South Africa.
But aside from Cape Town's glamorous and modern side, its fascinating history is also prevalent; from Khayelitsha in Western Cape to the affluent suburb of Camps Bay.
"Capetown.Mobi is another example of how Cape Town is taking advantage of trends in digital marketing to deliver innovative customer centred products and encourage visitors to make the most of a trip to the destination.
"In recent months, Cape Town has introduced a number of new tourism initiatives and events to its calendar. City.Mobi aims to help travellers stay on top of what's hot in this stunning destination with so much on offer," added Footit.
The Cape Town mobile guide – created by leading mobile web development company World Mobi Group Limited – is available free of charge at Capetown.Mobi. This clever pocket sized buddy can be run using a mobile or smartphone browser. It is also accessible on desktops.
The mobile guide includes extensive information ranging from accommodations, to restaurants, shopping, nightlife, and transport. In addition there is emergency information to hand.
Other innovative features include a currency converter and translating tool while web links and contact details are provided for all the featured services.


Home > Cloud Server > What Is A Cloud Application?
A cloud application is an application that provides the functionality of a native application, but which runs in the cloud and is interacted with via web browsers and APIs.
When we talk about the cloud, we usually mean public cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service platforms, but IaaS was a late-comer in the cloud space compared to Software-as-a-Service — cloud applications came first.
Software-as-a-Service cloud apps have been around since the late-nineties, developing from simpler web applications that used technology like Flash and Java to provide primitive "desktop-like" functionality accessible in the web browser.
Like many of the terms we're discussing in this article, the meaning of "cloud" is hazy. A definition everyone can agree on focuses on functionality provided over a network where compute and storage happens on servers in data centers. In the broadest possible sense, the cloud is everything that happens on the internet rather than on a local machine. But cloud is usually used in a more constrained sense: applications and infrastructure used and managed over the internet, offering a web-based interface, and often — although not always — involving virtualization.
That definition includes cloud infrastructure platforms that provide virtual servers, networks, and other infrastructure, as well as cloud applications that run in a remote data center. Google Docs is a paradigmatic example of a cloud application. To access Google Docs, you need nothing more than a machine capable of running a web browser. The interface and all the functionality, including data storage, are delivered from remote servers.
Google Docs also provides a useful point of comparison between modern cloud apps and the older native application paradigm. In the early days of the web, bandwidth was constrained. It was impossible to deliver feature-rich applications over the internet and provide a good user experience.
Applications like Microsoft's Office were downloaded once or purchased on disks and installed on local computers. All processing and storage happened on the local machine.
The native application model has some benefits, but in an age of abundant bandwidth and a web platform with far richer functionality than ever before, many choose to take a cloud-first approach to development. Even companies that made their fortunes with desktop apps, like Microsoft, can see which way the wind is blowing and are making the move to cloud application delivery.
So how do cloud applications differ from web applications? Firstly, and somewhat counter-intuitively, for the most part, modern cloud applications use APIs and technologies that are native to the web. When you open a cloud app, you aren't asked to download a plugin that runs in the browser — the application uses technology built into the browser.
Secondly, web apps were often of limited functionality compared to desktop applications, whereas cloud applications are competitive with native applications, although they are often simpler and offer a more intuitive user experience.
And, most importantly, cloud applications provide APIs in addition to their web interface. The web is one way to interact with a cloud application but it's not the only way. This matters because integration and automation are key benefits of the cloud.
Without an API, web app users are forced to interact with the application in a browser. With the APIs of modern cloud applications, users can write scripts and applications to "remote control" their applications and data. With APIs, cloud apps can be integrated with each other to perform user-specific workflows. Services like IFTTT and Zapier exist to make integration easier.
If you've worked in IT for more than a few years, you'll remember how complex it was to manage large software deployments when applications ran on desktop PCs. Cloud applications solve the problem of large-scale distributed software deployments.
Because users access cloud applications with a browser, there is no need to install, update, and manage business applications across every desktop computer or laptop the business owns.
Cloud applications offer fine-grained, centralized user and data control. IT departments can manage who has access to data and what they can do with it via a dedicated control interface, reducing the complexity of business software management.
Cloud applications are also more secure than desktop applications. Users don't have the opportunity to install malware that puts the business at risk. Vulnerabilities in cloud applications can be fixed as soon as they're discovered and delivered to users when they hit the refresh button in their browser, rather than via complex patch rollouts.
Additionally, cloud applications give companies insight into who is using their resources and how they're being used.
Because cloud applications provide greater control and improved security, the cost of managing essential business applications is reduced. With cloud applications, companies outsource much of the management burden to the cloud app vendor, reducing the need for large in-house IT teams.
Traditional enterprise software licensing is a large cost-center for many businesses. Vendor loved to lock their customers into applications and charge huge licensing, upgrade, and support fees.
With cloud apps, most of that complexity goes away. Typically, cloud apps are subscription services with simple licenses. Companies pay a fixed amount each month for each user. If they don't want to use the software any more, it's often straightforward to export data and migrate to a different solution. Companies only pay for the cloud app resources they use.
In 2017, Software-as-a-Service cloud applications have eclipsed traditional software distribution and licensing. The benefits are overwhelming for both developers and users. There are occasions where native applications are preferable, but as new web technologies become widely available, the web platform and the cloud will further cement their place as the leading app development and delivery strategy.
Hey Andrew, great explanation of what a cloud application is compared to native applications. There are so many benefits to cloud applications. However, I think there are some additional security concerns for cloud apps because there are a few more layers for vulnerability when information is transferred both ways. These concerns will be addressed as technology solutions continue to become more cloud-based and users are more careful about their internet connections. We are on a good track to be totally cloud based soon.

anisha@linux-y3pi:~/Desktop/mysvn> svn checkout https://earthhtml.googlecode.com/svn/trunk
Checked out revision 3.

anisha@linux-y3pi:~/Desktop/mysvn> ls
manual.cpp  manual.cpp~  ogmap.html  svn-book.pdf  trunk

anisha@linux-y3pi:~/Desktop/mysvn> cd trunk/
anisha@linux-y3pi:~/Desktop/mysvn/trunk> ls
ogmap.html

Why is that so?
http://code.google.com/p/earthhtml/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk

A: Because the directory contains only one file? Your link to the repository web view proves it. The files you listed first are one directory level higher, so if you want all of them, do:
svn checkout https://earthhtml.googlecode.com/svn

To see the one file with svn list, list the contents of the trunk folder:
 svn list https://earthhtml.googlecode.com/svn/trunk

Compare that with the previous command and it will hopefully be obvious, why you got only one file — you requested only the trunk folder, not the whole repository contents.
Repository structure:
branches/
    /.../
manual.cpp
ogmap.html
svn-book.pdf
tags/
    /.../
trunk/
    ogmap.html
wiki/
    /.../

svn checkout directly copies the structure of the repository (or it would be hard to sync back). If you only specify you want a subfolder, it will only download that; this is known as a partial checkout.

A: I may be missing something but you only checkout 'trunk' which actually have only one file in its thrid revision, nothing seems strange to me here.
Try svn checkout https://earthhtml.googlecode.com/svn/ and let us know.
