Song of Solomon 1:1
The song of songs, which is Solomon's.
I. Though written very possibly by Solomon with reference to the daughter of Pharaoh, this Song seems evidently to have had a deep symbolical meaning from the very beginning. All things in Scripture are for Christ's sake from the beginning of the world. The forms which, floating by, cast their shadows on the elder world were shades of that greater Figure which was to absorb the attention of mankind and of the Church for ever and ever. Such is the power which underlies the Song of Solomon. The Church has ever in her days of earnestness and special devotion used the Song of Solomon. It has been the thermometer of her condition; when and where her energy and love were strong, then and there the Song of songs became the mode and form of her expression.
II. The Song of Solomon is peculiarly suited to form a manual of devotion for those who, as penitents or saints, are seeking after Jesus, (1) Its images are the images natural to the earnest-minded. (2) Its expressions of penitence, humility, and self-condemnation make it beautifully fitted to the life of those who "mourn after a godly sort," and to become a manual of expression for the returning sinner. (3) The yearnings of love are among the most striking parts of the Song. The language is that of the deepest affection; and no expressions seem so natural a channel through which the stream of love may flow as those we find here. (4) The Song is typical of the acts of our Lord's life. His passion and resurrection are unmistakably shadowed forth in it; so much so, that the natural illustration of the Song would be the scenes of the Gospel.

Song of Solomon 1:4This passage is most appropriate in the mouth of the Church, considered as of Gentile origin, eager to be drawn after Christ; afraid of contempt from the people of Jerusalem, as being of another race, and anxiously inquiring of the Bridegroom where He keepeth His flock—ignorant, up to that moment, of God's manner of dealing with His chosen.
I. The text brings us across the great mystery of God's predestination. The cry of man to God is, "Draw me, and I will follow Thee." In the New Testament we have our blessed Lord declaring, "No man cometh unto Me, except the Father draw him." In some sense or other, predestination is the eternal truth of God. Wherever predestination is spoken of, it is a predestination which concerns, not our final salvation or condemnation, but simply our call to the knowledge of Christ Jesus. Thousands of years ago it was predestined that we should be blessed with the knowledge of Christ, but it was not predestined whether we should be saved thereby. What the Bible teaches is, that God has predestined some to a knowledge of the truth of Christ, and shut it up from others; not that He has predestined some to heaven and some to hell.
II. Consider these words as the utterance of the bride after her union with Christ. (1) The entire life of man is a period during which there is perpetually being exerted upon the soul a gentle violence, alluring, tempting it to follow the footsteps of Christ. The details of our existence are so planned as to lead us unto heaven. If we would surrender ourselves into God's hands unreservedly, He would bring us safe to the eternal city. (2) The text implies that the course of the servant of God is one of constant progress and active advance. Christ is ever, as it were, moving onward; He leads us from one height of moral excellence to another.
Bishop Woodford, Occasional Sermons, vol. i., p. 178.
I. The spiritual life has three states through which all who attain to the love of Christ seem to pass; and these states are so marked that we may take them one by one. (1) I suppose that most can remember a time when we were drawn so strongly to the world that the drawing of Christ's love and spirit was overbalanced by a more powerful attraction. Sin is sweet, and it draws steadily and smoothly, as the shoal water of a whirlpool, with an imperceptible and resistless attraction. One sin will overbear the meek and gentle drawing of Christ. It is not only the greater sin, or the worship of the world, which holds us back against the drawing of Christ, but the soft, pure happiness of home, the easy round of kindly offices, the calm and blameless toil of a literary life, the gentler and more peaceful influences of earthly cheerfulness;—all these, too, with the lights and shades, the anxieties and joys, which fall across an even path, steal away the heart, and wind all its affections about a thousand moorings. (2) Let us take the next state. It may be that by sorrow or chastisement, or by some other of His manifold strokes of love, it has pleased God to break or to relax these bonds, and to dispel the vain show in which they walked. The world draws them less, and the presence of Christ attracts them more. Such persons are in a balanced state, between two attractions, of which, if the one be weaker, it is the nearer and the more sensibly perceived. This condition is at times dreary and overcast, and cannot last long. It must incline one way or the other. (3) And this leads on into the third and last state, in which the balance is so turned against this world, that it can allure no longer; and the hope of God and His kingdom attracts alone. In some special way God is often pleased to break the bonds of this world, and to draw His servants once for all under the abiding attractions of the world to come. Perhaps nothing does this so surely as a realisation of death.
II. Let us suppose that God has, in love, broken your bonds asunder and drawn you unto Himself. How will you answer to this mercy? (1) It would be the plain will of God that you should strive with all your soul and strength to follow whither He is drawing you: that is, to prepare yourselves to dwell with Him for ever. (2) Give your whole heart and strength to perpetuate and perfect what you have learned to the very end of life.
H. E. Manning, Sermons, vol. iii., p. 388.
There is one point on the very face of the text which it is important to notice. We may come to God collectively, but we are drawn to God each one individually. Draw me: we will run after Thee. Notice how this effectual drawing will begin to show itself in those who have been, indeed, the subjects of it.
I. Obedience to an impulse of God will be instant. A "drawing" never takes effect tomorrow. Real religion is always in the present tense. It is Abraham's "Here am I!" It is Isaiah's "Send me!" It is Christ's "Lo, I come!"
II. A person who is under the drawing of God will be sure to begin to make conscience of little things. Things which were to him as nothing he will consider all-important, because they give him the opportunity of pleasing or displeasing God.
III. Another step—a very early step in the road—is a desire for the salvation of somebody else. Be very suspicious about your religion if you are not anxious about anybody's soul.
IV. The man who is really drawn so loves the drawing that he always wants to be drawn more and more. He finds that it is so pleasant. He is always trying to get nearer. Therefore he is a man of much prayer—because he is nearer at such times. He wants oneness, closeness, and identity with Christ.

Song of Solomon 1:4-6I. Note (1) what it is that the Church desires from Christ—what every pious soul must desire who would make prayer to Christ at all. "Draw me," allure me, bring my soul under the power of a love-captivity. (2) "And we will run after Thee." This seems to denote the alacrity with which, after experimental acquaintance with Christ and the power of His grace, we shall persevere in our Christian course. This speed comes of Christ's drawing, and, as it is in material bodies, the velocity increases as we get nearer to the centre of the attracting influence. (3) Remark next the grounds on which the Church presumes to hope for these glorious manifestations of Christ's love to her. A large suit should be endorsed by a strong plea, nor could we walk so boldly unless there had been first the extending towards us of the golden sceptre. "The King hath brought me into His chambers;" He hath recognised the rightfulness of my espousals; He hath initiated for me this covenant relation of protection and peace and mercy, and therefore by Him, by the King Himself, we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand.
II. "I am black, but comely." The words may be taken in reference to the triumphs and sorrows of earth. (1) The first reason assigned for the Church's uncomely visage, for some of her dark spots and blemishes, is persecution. "The sun hath looked upon me." (2) Opposition, disagreement, strifes, and feuds, among her own children. (3) The winter of her own religious spirit, the fear of loss to her personal spiritual devotion on account of over-zeal to discharge faithfully a public trust. "They made me keeper of the vineyards, but mine own vineyard have I not kept."
D. Moore, Penny Pulpit, No. 3512.
Song of Solomon 1:5The whole volume of spiritual truth lies rolled up in these few words. You might expand them into both the Testaments. Penitence and faith—all the heart knows of itself and all it knows of Jesus—nature and grace—condemnation and peace. God's great method with man in His everlasting covenant—it is all here, "Black, but comely." The contrast matches with the experience of every child of God; the contradiction lies in the double being of a renewed man; the solution of the paradox is the gospel of Christ.
I. What is "blackness?" Properly, it is no colour at all. It is that which reflects no tint of all the sun's prismatic rays. It is not one of the hues of the rainbow. It is the absence of colour. It is a simple negative. Remember, this is blackness,—a negative life. The absence of love and energy, and work for Christ is the great crime in God's calendar. Nothing more was wanted to place those who were on the left hand on the day of judgment. You are black, because heaven does not reflect itself in you. It is your colourless life.
II. How can the black be comely? There must be something introduced from without. There must be a new nature. David expressed it all in those few words, "Blessed is the man whose sin is covered." It is the covering which is the comeliness. Jesus lived to make a man's righteousness which He could give to a man. When a man puts it on, it not only hides all that is underneath it, but it decks that man in more than celestial loveliness. He wears a robe, which is woven of all the tissues of the holiness of Jesus—dipped in the dies of heaven—sparkling in all its splendours. This is the wedding garment which gives to our dull souls their festive sweetness.
J. Vaughan, Sermons, 9th series, p. 45.
Song of Solomon 1:5, Song of Solomon 1:15; Song of Solomon 5:16I. Look first at the saint's "I am." It is a sad one. "I am black—black as the tents of Kedar." Every saint is conscious of innumerable sins, blemishes, and imperfections. The more spiritually-minded the Christian is, the more conscious is he of his blackness; and the nearer a man lives to God, the more intense is his abhorrence of himself.
II. Listen next to Christ's response: "Behold, thou art fair, My love; behold, thou art fair." This is not the language of exaggeration. Although the Lord loves His Church intensely He does not love it unreasonably; His love does not blind His eyes to His people's defects. And yet He says, "Behold, thou art fair." Though He sees faults and failings in me, He does not see me in my faults and failings, but views me as I am in Himself. When He looks upon us, He sees His own loveliness, and His own righteousness, and so He may well say, "Thou art fair."
III. Lastly, you have the Church's "He is." "Yea, he is altogether lovely." That Christ is altogether lovely is the united testimony of all saints in every age. In Him all the colours of beauty combine—all the harmonies that can be conceived blend in one ravishing strain. There is no one drawback in Him. He is lovely to my mind's judgment; lovely to my heart's affection; lovely to my will's surrender; lovely in my memory's treasure-house. He is all beauty, and beauty all round, and the Church gives this as her united testimony concerning Him.

Song of Solomon 1:6I. What is this complaint? "Mine own vineyard have I not kept." The spiritual nature of a godly man is here supposed to be likened to a vineyard. (1) It is a soil in which things are planted and sown. (2). It is a sphere affording full scope for exertion, vigilance and zeal. (3) Judicious labour secures profit and reward. (4) Neglect makes evil fertile and brings miserable barrenness of good.
II. Look at the cause and the occasion of the evil complained of. (1) The cause of self-neglect is not in the vineyard-keeping for others; it must be in the character of the individual concerned. We are all of us apt to charge our faults and failings upon God's providence, or upon God's arrangements. The cause may be: (a) False views of a state of salvation, and of our personal obligations; (b) Excess of zeal for the welfare of others; (c) False amiability and accessibility to others; (d) A strong taste for the excitement of caring for others, and the vanity which prefers the position of keeper of the vineyard to the quiet condition of attending to one's own vineyard. (2) The occasion—"They made me." A great deal of religious and benevolent work is done evidently as unto man, and not as unto God. We neglect our own vineyards because others call us away, and we obey. We become engrossed. We become too ardent. We are keeping the vineyards of others, just, perhaps, that it may be said that we are keeping their vineyards, and that we may have the praise of the fruit of the vineyard, or that we may please those who are connected with the vineyard. The occasion of self-neglect is suggested in these words:—"They made me keeper of the vineyards."
S. Martin, Westminster Chapel Pulpit, 4th series, No. 14.
Not merely made keeper; you may be put into an office, yet fail to do its duties faithfully and well. But the suggestion here plainly is, that the vineyards of others were diligently kept, while by a fatality which might be thought unparalleled, if it were not one of the commonest of things, the vineyard at home was neglected.
I. Probably there are few who have reached middle age, and have incurred the responsibilities of domestic life, who can think of the text without some inward self-reproach. The matter is one of wide concern when we remember that every Sunday-school teacher, every visitor of the sick or the poor, every human being who is called to say a word of warning to an erring creature, or a word of encouragement to a weary one; every father and mother whose example and conversation and entire life, to its least detail, may affect the impressionable nature of their child; is called to keep the vineyard at home, if they would not have it scatter the slight seeds of mighty evil wide and far. We are all of us watched by far more eyes than we think of; and spiritual characteristics in us may reappear in those who have no intention of imitating us, but who insensibly fall into ways which they continually see.
II. The great lesson of the text is, care for your own soul; care for the souls of your children; care for the souls of your friends; care for the souls of all you know and do not know. Every vineyard under the wide skies, where you can pull up a weed or cast one good seed, the smallest—of that vineyard God has made you keeper.
So much the more diligently see that you keep your own; so much the more earnestly, as you would successfully mind the things of others, look to yourself. If we would do anything in this world, we with our little strength, we must begin with what lies to our hand; we must begin with the nearest. When things are right at home, we shall be abler to meddle with good result in things far away.

Song of Solomon 1:8I. Keep on familiar ground; do not stray away from the line of footsteps; be near where you can hear the pipe, or the flute, or the trumpet of the camp. Do not detach yourselves from the great company of the church, but wherever you are see that your method of communication is in good working order. This is not the exhortation of fear, it is the precept of sense, it is the dictate of reason, it is the calm, strong, solemn view of history and experience.
II. Loneliness has its perils in the religious life. When the devil gets a man absolutely alone, who will win? Not the man—in the vast proportion of cases. There was only one man that won in single fight, and that man was the Lord from heaven. The poor woman in the song had lost her loved one, and she was told that if she wanted to find him she would find him on accustomed beats and familiar paths. God leaves His footprints on the earth, and if we follow His footprints we shall find Himself.
III. Feed thy kids beside the shepherds' tents. Then you will have communion. Christianity institutes a fellowship, a community of interest and spirit and purpose. We are the complement of one another. Forsake not the assembling of yourselves together; beware of the independence which is isolation; seek for communion, for music, for protection, for security, for all that comes of organised life, household delight, and trust; thus the enemy will never find you alone and at a disadvantage, but always surrounded by those who can recall the sweetest memories to your recollection, and enrich your hearts by reminders of the infinite promises of God, and thus a commonwealth shall be the basis of victory.
IV. Let us see that our footprints are all shaping towards home, that the foot is always set in the direction of home. Do not let us deceive and mislead anybody who may put their feet into our footprints under the impression that they are going home, when they are really going to their ruin.
Parker, Fountain, June 19th, 1879.
Song of Solomon 1:9It is thus that love multiplies itself by many images. Love sees the image of its dearest one everywhere, and claims it as its own. Look at the power of fancy, this creative and symbolising power, this power of reading the inner mysticism and ideality of things (1) as a joy, (2) as a danger, (3) as a responsibility.
I. A joy. In finding new symbols we find new pleasures, and in the inspiration of our love we turn all things visible to new and sacred uses. This is the joy of Christ Himself in the 13th chapter of the Gospel by Matthew. The object of His love was the kingdom of heaven, and day by day He compared it with new comparisons, and so gave His Church the treasure of His parables.
II. Not only is this power of fancy a keen and thrilling joy, but it is a positive and an immediate danger. The danger arises from the fact that we may consider our duty done when we have instituted a beautiful comparison. Our religion may perish in sentimental expressions; you may die in words. The danger is, that if we live the parabolical life we may never advance to Gethsemane and Golgotha. We may create a kind of artificial life, and thus miss the great utilities of our being. Not the heart that is swiftest and surest in the creation of symbols is always to be trusted in the hour of pain and distress.
III. A responsibility. We are to be transformed by the beauty that we admire. In comparing Christ with things beautiful, noble, grand, we are writing a heavy indictment against ourselves if we profess to be His followers, and do not rise to the grandeur of the occasion. As he who passes through a garden of roses brings with him part of the fragrance breathed from the beauteous flowers, so we who come forth from the fellowship of Christ are to show somewhat of the radiance of His countenance, and to speak somewhat with the eloquence of His accent.

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.
Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.
Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee.
I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.
Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?
If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds' tents.
I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots.
Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.
We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.
While the king sitteth at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof.
A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts.
My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of Engedi.
Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes.
Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed is green.
The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.

ABAC pushes digital shift in Asia Pacific
Louella Desiderio (The Philippine Star) - October 23, 2020 - 12:00am
MANILA, Philippines — The Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Business Advisory Council (ABAC) Philippines is pushing for greater public-private collaboration on digital transformation to allow economies and businesses to recover from the pandemic.
Speaking at the ABAC Philippines Digital Innovation Forum yesterday, Sabin Aboitiz, ABAC member and Aboitiz Group president and chief executive officer said digitalization has allowed businesses to stay afloat during the global crisis and strong collaboration between the public and private sectors in this area would be key in allowing economies to move forward.
"Our collective experience these past months also points to how vital it is to have strong public-private collaboration. According to the Asian Development Bank, we particularly need close cooperation in order to protect consumers against cybercrimes and fraud, prevent illegal activities, enhance cybersecurity to prevent cyberattacks, and protect personal data and privacy," he said.
He said while some companies struggled to make the shift, it was simply like flipping a switch for others including Aboitiz, as digital transformation efforts have been put in place several years back.
ABAC Philippines chair Tomas Alcantara said in the same event it is important to leverage on digital technology to achieve economic growth and take advantage of opportunities.
"The same digital technology will enable us to harness our human capital for the new future-of-work. And the same digital technology that will provide new products and services, that supports financial inclusion and growth of key sectors, including the SMEs (small and medium enterprises)," he said.
Trade Undersecretary Rafaelita Aldaba said the government recognizes the role it has to play to help all businesses transition and adopt new technologies.
She said based on the technology utilization survey conducted by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) last year, 77 percent of micro enterprises, 67 percent of small and medium businesses, and 83 percent of large enterprises are familiar with Industry 4.0 technologies.
Despite the awareness on the technologies, she said many are unable to utilize these due to lack of financial capability, market conditions, inadequate skills and poor digital infrastructure.
"There are uncertainties and risks that will be involved in terms of investing in these new technologies and through government programs, we'll be able to share in terms of addressing these uncertainties and risks," she said.
She said the government is implementing many initiatives to support businesses' digital transformation.
In particular, the DTI is crafting a roadmap to make the Philippines a center of excellence for artificial intelligence.
Aldaba said the agency is also conducting a study for an Industry 4.0 pilot factory and SME Academy to provide trainings to businesses.
She said the DTI is also working with the Department of Labor and Employment, and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority in formulating an Industry 4.0 human resource development roadmap.
In addition, the DTI is working with SkillsFuture Singapore, a statutory board under the Ministry of Education, on a skills development framework to identify what sectors and skills would be in demand in the future.
ABAC serves as the primary voice of business in APEC.

"START YOUR
TRAINING TODAY"
I would like to thank you for a wonderful tennistrip to your beautiful country. We really had a great time at your club.
I really appreciate meeting you all in person, and I hope to see you again!
Thomas Jacobsson
Extremely friendly reception/bar staff, to the coaches and Sergio the head coach and director of the club. It's only later on that I found that even Sergio had been consulted and had actively been involved in my schedule. Talk about attention to detail! How many clubs or organizations will go to this length? Not many that I know of.
So how did my 2 weeks go? Firstly the coaching was great. Relaxed but hard work, yet pin pointing on the areas that need improvement. Thank you Jason and Xavi.
After seeing my level of play (beginner/intermediate) I was allowed to join this delightful group of twelve gentlemen who play doubles regularly every Tuesday and Sat. This group is headed by a fantastic gentleman by the by the name of George. Everyone knows George in the club! You get my meaning. George is 67 (hope he doesn't mind me saying this) but plays like a 35yr old. Very canny player.
The club is very clean, prices are very reasonable,
has a lovely atmosphere and you feel like staying there forever.
Hi Sergio, Stan, David and everyone. Just a little note to say that we had such a wonderful time at the Bel-Air Tennis Club. Your club is so inclusive and friendly, in fact the friendliness we found in the club was second to none. Although it will be a while before we reach Wimbledon. Stan made our coaching sessions engaging and great fun. Thank you David for encouraging us in the Mix In sessions. In truth we had such a fantastic time and cannot wait to return! Hope to see you again next year.
Barbara Dunne, Carole Cosgrave and Mary Doherty (ireland)
Firstly, this is a proper tennis club. What I mean by this is that it is a club for people who love playing the game of tennis no matter what level. This not a place just to belong to some sort of exclusive club and pose around. There plenty of those clubs around Marbella if that's what you are looking for.
Secondly, I challenge anyone to find a tennis club that is more welcoming and make you feel at home around the Marbella area or in Costa del Sol for that matter. I don't think you will find one.
I had e-mailed a list of clubs from England to find a club that would offer me a mixture of private lessons, some arranged singles and doubles for 2 weeks.
Well, the only club that came through was Bel Air Tennis. Victoria who works in reception organized a thoroughly planned schedule after liaising with Jason Fry who is one of the coaches there.
Once I got there, I was extremely pleased to see how relaxed and welcome everyone made my friend and I feel.

Avocados are one of my many favorite fruits. Actually scratch that I don't think I have a favorite, they're all so delicious! This avocado soup is all raw with spices making it a great snack with all those enzymes ready to boost up your body! It's so creamy and luscious, you could also use it as a dip but I enjoy it more by itself. Note: Serve cold!
Blend the avocado and water until formed into a purée. Pour into a cereal sized bowl, add ginger and garlic and your creamy avocado soup is ready!
If you want it warm, just put the soup in a pan on the stove on high and stir constantly so one part doesn't get too hot and kill the enzymes. You want it to be warm to the touch but not hot. Click here to learn more about enzymes.

Check out the best places to work in the UAE - is your company on the list?
"After studying Fashion Design in the UK, I went on to work with brands like Alexander McQueen and Sass & Bide. Throughout my career, I've mentored brands and worked with up and coming labels to launch themselves successfully and building on this, I set up Shoreditch Muse two years ago to help brands introduce themselves to the Middle East. In partnership with The Press Room, we offer designers showroom space, brand development, PR and more. I also run my own fashion label. I am always inspired by travel. I spend a lot of my (very little) spare time exploring, going to new cities and countries. The more I see the more ideas I get, so I think it is very important to be out of your comfort zone and experience new things. The smallest object, shape, colour or person can inspire a whole collection. Working with new designers in the showroom, I am always on the hunt for new and undiscovered talent, so travelling gives me the best exposure to this."
"I began my career by studying Visual Communication. From there I specialised in fashion through art direction and styling, as well as working in publishing as a fashion director. Today I combine my skills from creative direction with business to build our brands. Film, music, people, and energy – all of these things have an influence on me creatively. For our brands, each have their own goals and personality, but they all endorse the common elements of passion, creativity, professionalism and innovation - which are also huge inspirational influencers for our whole team and the codes we live by! I am thankful everyday for the opportunities that being part of the developing creative industries in the Middle East offers."
"I have a big passion for fashion. I studied fashion at IED school and then I started my career working in magazines. I am an aesthete, everything beautiful is an inspiration to me, whether it be flowers, or an old picture, blue sky, or a dress. I love working in the UAE because sometimes it's like a white paper and you can write your own story, it's full of possibilities."
"When I was a child I wanted to be a fashion designer, and that's what leads to my love of fashion now ‑ now I know that my camera is the best way for me to capture that world. Everything can inspire: a good book, beautiful music, other artists. As a photographer, you must be open to impression. In terms of my own creative style, I like to try lots of things... for example, I usually play with lights, compositions, and different moods, but I think all of my work has an element of femininity. Working in the UAE, I love that I can interact with so many international practitioners and also represent my Hungarian background to them, to show them what we can do."

Simon Russell Beale is the best Prospero our critic has ever seen in the RSC's high-tech tempest
Written by Ian Shuttlesworth
It's a bit of a cliché to see reviews or adverts proclaiming, 'Don't wait, hurry now to see...' in the case of the RSC's latest revival of The Tempest, however, it's justified. Why, especially when it's hardly the only Tempest around (I'll be reviewing another one next week) and even this one will come to London next summer? Well, that's the thing: I don't think it's going to work nearly as well at the Barbican as it does at Stratford.
The Royal Shakespeare Theatre's deep-thrust stage means the actors are playing to an audience on three sides instead of one: we feel part of the action. and that's especially valuable when there's a risk that otherwise the action might be overshadowed by the backgrounds. Me, I think there's a special circle of hell reserved for stage designers who get over-enthusiastic about computer-generated imagery, so I approached this production not so much with a pinch of salt as a whole packet of Saxa.
Luckily, director Gregory Doran and designer Stephen Brimson Lewis know better. Having enlisted the help of intel for hardware and imaginarium studios (co-founded by actor Andy Serkis after his work as Gollum and King Kong) for practical know-how, they've not only summoned up Prospero's magic to create vivid backgrounds ranging from a child's-paintbox landscapes to snarling hellhounds, but they also transform the spirit ariel. Actor Mark Quartley wears a motion- capture bodysuit that maps his movements in real time on to projections of him as a zephyr or a fearsome harpy. Yet he remains on stage the whole time, so that we engage with the 'real' ariel and his own thoughts and feelings.
And what a central relationship he has with his master Prospero. Normally a five-star review would imply utter perfection, and this isn't a flawless production. Pretty much the entire royal family of Naples come from the shallow end of the gene pool, and even the supposedly entrancing Miranda (Jenny Rainsford), when emotional, lets her voice quaver as much as Minnie in The Goon Show. But Prospero... ah, Prospero is Simon Russell Beale.
Beale is unparalleled for turning actorly intelligence into emotional insight, and this pays off in spades in a play which is often thought to be Shakespeare musing upon theatre itself. Prospero's speeches are invested by SRB with a profound and perfectly balanced sensitivity to the potency of these visions and their ultimate insufficiency in the face of... living. It's the best Prospero I've seen, and I think the best Simon Russell Beale, which is no small accolade. Don't wait, hurry now to see.

It will also discourage people from using tobacco products, betel - the main contributors for cancer.
The World Health Organization (WHO) gives special attention to prevent Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs) such as cancer and 15 million people die every year of NCDs. Seven million deaths are reported due to smoking and tobacco consumption.
SLCS General Secretary and Project Coordinator Perin Captain told Daily News that the proceeds from the sale' will be used to conduct free monthly clinics for cancer patients and screen females for breast, oral, cervical and skin cancers at the Cancer Society Head Quarters, Bullers Lane, Colombo 7.

The third newsletter this week !!!
So much has been happening at Trewoon, yesterday a new improved webcam went live.
From the still photo taken from the web cam this morning you can see how much better the picture quality is. We hope you enjoy.
In the next week or so we are having cables laid to all the cottages so that you can enjoy enhanced wi-fi in all three. The conference room will still be available for those who wish to use the facilities and now that the office has moved from Trewoon those facilities are available 24/7.
I have received a fantastic video of the badger affectionately known as J Edgar as he hoovers up the peanuts outside the french doors of The Chocolate Box. Thank you Phil and Jeanette for sharing.
Here is the link if you would like to watch, it is well worth it.
J Edgar also visits us each night hence he is a very BIG badger. He and the other badgers will be feeding outside the French doors at By The Seashore so you will be able to badger watch from this cottage.


Price: $$ ($10-$20) – Available at Walmart, Target, and Walgreens.
I Like: how rich and easily spreadable the cream is. Moisturizes body and face. Effectively treats dry, irritated skin. A good value.
Not a fan of: the petroleum-based ingredients.
Cetaphil's Moisturizing Cream is a fantastic gateway moisturizer for those who are not too concerned about how natural their skin care products are. This widely-available unscented cream effectively moisturizes dry, sensitive skin on the body as well as the face. Its consistency is extremely thick – similar to that of Crisco, but nowhere near as greasy. What impresses me most about the cream is how quickly it alleviates dryness. The product leaves behind a slightly greasy film, but it becomes hardly noticeable ten minutes after application. If you're still using your girlfriend's synthetic berry-scented lotion, you should consider moving on to a fragrance-free alternative such as Cetaphil's Moisturizing Cream. It does a better job at moisturizing without making you smell like an air freshener.
Price: $$ ($10-$20) – Available at Beta Naturals and Amazon.
I like: how well this product moisturizes without leaving your skin greasy. It is all-natural and absorbs easily into the skin.
Not a fan of: nothing. This is a phenomenal versatile moisturizer that works particularly well for those with dry skin.
Argan oil might be the single most nourishing natural skin care ingredient available on the market. My research into this awesome extract eventually led me to launch a skin care company. Prior to starting Beta Naturals, I couldn't find a lot of information relating to men on the use of argan oil. If you're a guy and this is the first time you're hearing about argan oil, then it is my absolute pleasure to educate you on its benefits. I love how versatile Beta Naturals Pure Argan Oil is. I use it in the morning as a naturally soothing aftershave and before bed as a nighttime moisturizer for the face and eye area. The high vitamin e content in this product helps the skin recover quickly from shaving. Essential fatty acids make Beta Naturals Argan Oil an ideal anti-aging product as well. Don't let the word "oil" fool you into thinking it is thick and greasy – on the contrary, the consistency of the product is very light and absorbs easily into the skin. Any initial shine dissipates quickly. It does not clog pores and works well at regulating oil production – my skin does not overcompensate and produce excess oil whenever I use the product. Beta Naturals Pure Argan Oil has no scent, nutty or otherwise, and won't interfere with any fragrances you might be wearing. The one ounce bottle may seem small, but it packs a punch – a little goes a very long way in moisturizing – I usually just rub 1-2 drops between the fingertips and apply. Now that I have opened your eyes to the wonderful world of Beta Naturals 100% Pure Organic Argan Oil, are adventurous enough to try it?

I have some additional thoughts on last week's episode, and the show in general, so since there's no new episode this week I thought I'd put up a short follow up post.
-First, I would like to thank Anne for her comment regarding being able to exist on the island with your younger self. I responded to her question, but I figured I would go ahead and bring it up in here since not everyone reads the comments on here.
As is the case with man of my theories, this one ultimately turned out to be 100% wrong. Apparently the idea of occupying the same time period as your previous self was not exclusive to when the island was jumping around through time, it also applies in 1977. So that means Daniel was telling the truth when he said Charlotte stopped jumping with them because she died, and that means Miles is able to exist along with his younger self.
That also means that the reason Sun didn't travel back was not because she was already on the island as a child. We still don't know why she didn't, but I guess we have one more theory that we can cross off the list.
Now, one idea I heard on a podcast that has some merit is regarding speculation on what happens if you were to come in contact with your younger self. As of right now, the only person we know of that exists twice in the same time is Miles. We also know that Miles has some extraordinary ability to speak with the dead. I don't know what happens when you come in contact with yourself (I do know that we're not going by Timecop rules where you will simply cease to exist). I had speculated that Miles' abilities might have something to do with "The Incident", but perhaps him coming into contact with himself had something to do with it as well.
-Remember when the island was jumping, and Sawyer and Co. was on that boat, being shot at. I'd say there's a very good chance that Ilana's crew was shooting at them. We saw the boats in the present, plus the Ajira water bottles, it didn't make sense for Ben, Locke, Sun, or Lapidus to be shooting at them, but Ilana, now that we know she has some other purpose?
-Daniel has to be the one who built the pendulum in the Lamp Post. What do we know? We know that the Lamp Post was built in L.A. by Dharma over a pocket of electromagnetic energy. We know, from Eloise Hawking, that a "very clever fellow" added the pendulum to the station to find when and where the island was. We also know that after arriving in 1974, Daniel went...somewhere. After seeing him arrive in the sub at the end of this week's episode, he is apparently a scientist in Dharma, coming to the island from Ann Arbor. Therefore, it is very easy to assume that he built the pendulum at the Lamp Post, and is the "fellow" Hawking was referring to.
Obviously we don't know any of this for sure, but I'd say it's pretty likely at this point.
-What led to Dharma deciding to set up shop on this island? Did they find out about the island from the military? And if so, how did the military find the island, and did they attempt to relocate it once their team and hydrogen bomb went missing? All questions my friend Justin and I were poring over and I would love answers to.
-First, really good clipshow, simply because it was mostly composed of flashforwards and flashbacks, only we got to see them in chronological order for the most part, which was cool.
-I remembered Kate seeing Claire in Aaron's room, but I didn't remember her telling Kate not to take Aaron back to the island. I wonder how much of that played a part in her leaving Aaron with Miss Littleton.
-So these guys that were going after Sayid when he helped Hurley escape from the mental institution, I guess we're to assume that they were part of Ilana's crew? I guess I had initially assumed they were Widmore's men, but our last Sayid flashback showed us that he had killed everyone that posed a threat to them, so why all of a sudden would Widmore have more people go after Sayid? Especially since Widmore knew he was in (Costa Rica?) building houses, and let him be while he was down there. Plus, these guys weren't trying to kill Sayid, they just wanted to capture him.
That being said, why was one of them waiting outside of Hurley's mental institution?
There are lots of blurry lines here with who is working with/for who, and what everyone's motivation is right now.
Everything's set up nicely now for the last three episodes of the season (tear). I expect there to be some major chaos in the Dharma Initiative, and I'm hoping next week will focus on Daniel so we can learn about how he's been spending his time, as well as learning more about how the island works.

Delacroix, Self-Portrait
Buy From Art.com
Eugene Delacroix, the greatest of the French Romantic painters, was born near Paris. He began his studies in Bordeaux, and seemed destined for a musical career but, in 1805, he went to Paris to attend the Lycée Louis-le-Grand where he received the standard classical education. An uncle to whom Delacroix showed some sketches encouraged him to study art with Guérin and then to go on to the Beaux-Arts. Though he soon became dissatisfied with the academic training, was encouraged by the early success of his friend and fellow student Géricault. Delacroix's early interest in art included the English landscapes artists and portraitists, and he held an especial regard toward William Hogarth.
His debut at the 1821 Salon with "Dante and Virgil", a romantic and frightening work, was climaxed by the purchase of the painting by the French government. In 1824 "The Massacre at Scio", labeled by critics a "massacre of painting," established Delacroix as an intellectual who believed that the world could be made better as well as an artist who sided with the unfortunate. A visit to England and to English artists in 1825 was followed by other romantic paintings and his first period ended in 1830 with "Liberty Leading the People", a work that glorifies revolt and is heart-rending in its portrayal of the dead and dying. With this, Delacroix became the head of the Romantic School, but the failure of the Revolution of 1830 made it necessary for him to express himself in literary and exotic paintings such as those resulting from a trip to Morocco in 1832.
His love for the works of the Renaissance led Delacroix to paint animals, musicians, religious subjects, and large original murals. Delacroix's works are gloriously exciting; even the most calm seem bursting with awareness of life; and his portraits burn with an inner fire. With marvelously fluid brushwork and a rich flowing palette made up of deep reds, blues and greens, creamy whites and golden flesh tones, he created for himself and for us a world removed from drab reality, a world that is perhaps theatrical but nonetheless ecstatic. Delacroix, who had bouts of fever as early as 1820, died of a chest ailment in 1863, still sketching and making entries in the journal he had kept for many years.
"A good picture is equivalent to a good deed."

Unknown Artist - Private 01 (Raw Russian, 2019)
Deep underground REALNESS from the mysterious all Russian Label.
Over the past few years, Raw Russian has served up some magical moments within dance music. From hardcore rave, to deep jungle reminiscent of the 1990s, to raw and uncompromising techno, to deep and emotive house cuts that groove right to the very core. This label is delivering the real underground vibes of today, and with its recent release of R U S (Russian Underground Sadness), which will receive its own review in due course, showcasing the depth and breadth of talent within the Russian scene currently. Delivering all the moods, all the textures, all the grooves, all the drums that you could wish for, it is definitely worth delving into this most enticing of labels.
One of the most eye catching releases of this year has been the 'Private 01' 7" release, that is the first in a series of singles released by various anonymous Russian producers. Both tracks exude a hearty soulful depth of sonic house, with the level and scale of the tracks covering the bottom of the seas to the clouds in the sky. The first track, named 'Untitled', kicks straight into life, with a Omar S vibe kick to it, upbeat, before a synth line drives in, making itself known to the people. Airy and energetic, uplifting and beautiful, pads and a pulsating bass line kick in masterfully. All the missing elements suddenly driving this song into another dimension, two halves expertly placed (and this is not an easy thing to do). Its a real head bobber, and one that would go down beautifully in a club context, deep in the night, hands in the air kind of shit. It has a real Detroit feel too it - think Chris Gray, Moodymann (very much like 'what am I gunna do'), Omar, it has it all. Simplicity sometimes does it better, with the groove relying on those little changes to make a track pop. This one does it extremely well.
To cap off the release, comes 'Untitled'. The range pitched way down, like its been recorded in a fish tank, bass turned way up. Pads gentle, chords stab lightly, before a lovely vocal line comes in, again just gently moving on top of the bass and light kicks. This song is very soft, given that most of the elements have moved to the back, in favour of the bass, that kicks and grooves around immensely. A little key line comes through, adding further to a very soft and beautiful track. Less straight up than its cousin on the A side, it takes that synth feel of the first track that persists towards the end and draws it out over the whole track, taking you on this emotive downtempo house trip that just delves further and further. A real deep house banger, and a perfect foil to the energy of the first track.
Two sides of the same coin. This EP perfectly sums up the sort of vibe that the label has delved into the past few years, and long may it continue. Two fresh takes on the straight up house we all know and love, and the deeper jazzy house that focuses more on the layering of elements and little solos that just smack of summery days and dark blue nights. Raw Russian, keep it going baby.

« New Single and Official Video "SAGES" Out Tuesday May 26th!!!!
Mikey Pauker Featured In J Weekly »
SAGES OFFICIAL VIDEO AND SINGLE AVAILABLE NOW!
MAY 26, 2015 (OAKLAND,CA) — Oakland based pop-folk artist, Mikey Pauker, this week, releases his latest music video, 'SAGES'. Inspired by his interpretation of the story of creation and his own spiritual experience, Pauker brings together friends from the local Ecstatic Dance community in Oakland, California, to visually interpret his new single. Pauker explains, "The song calls out for humanity to be the sages, to teach, share, and be fully embodied." The dancers in the video are all part of what Pauker describes as a "medicine dance" which is the kind of deep prayer he experiences at Ecstatic Dance. "I go there, every week, no matter what I am feeling, and dance through it. And when I am done, I come to some kind of clarity." Pauker's video highlights the story of his own rebirth through community, dance, and connection with the Divine Mother. As he repeats in the song, "We cry out to Mama for her lovin."
Pauker's sound has been compared to the music of Citizen Cope, Michael Franti, John Butler Trio, & Nahko and Medicine for the People. He has shared the stage with well known names like Matisyahu, Trevor Hall, Yo La Tengo, and Local Natives. His performance highlights include South by Southwest, Jacob's Ladder Festival In Israel, and Burning Man.
'SAGES' is the first of a series of singles Pauker plans to release over the next six months at each new moon. With such a strong patriarchal mythology weaving through his own religious experience, Pauker hopes to bring to light a new embodied spirituality, where the body is our temple and we worship the divine mother as our creator.

England,January,2-2011:Chelsea share point with Aston Villa after Clark score at injury time. Chelsea's late fightback was in vain as Aston Villa scored a stoppage-time equaliser to draw 3-3.
The draw leaves the champions' Barclays Premier League title defence in considerable doubt.
Didier Drogba and John Terry looked to have snatched victory from the jaws of defeat with goals in the final six minutes at Stamford Bridge but the hosts' poor defending cost them when Ciaran Clark nodded home a late equaliser.
Both sides had held the lead in an exciting game, with Frank Lampard's penalty cancelled out by Ashley Young's spot-kick and Emile Heskey's header giving Villa the lead.
The result left Chelsea marooned in fifth place, six points behind Manchester United having played a game more, and crucially outside the Champions League places.
That will place manager Carlo Ancelotti's position under fresh scrutiny, while opposite number Gerard Houllier may enjoy some respite after ending a run of six defeats in seven games.
Chelsea began the match buoyed from ending their worst set of results for 11 years in Wednesday night's ugly 1-0 win over Bolton.
But for all their early possession, they once again lacked any real penetration.
Jeffrey Bruma – making his full Premier League debut – saw a header from a corner blocked but the better chances all fell to Villa, with Gabriel Agbonlahor, Young and Stewart Downing all going close.
But a sudden loss of discipline cost them dear, captain Stiliyan Petrov booked for a stupid lunge on Florent Malouda moments before James Collins climbed all over the Frenchman to concede a penalty.
Malouda did throw himself to the floor, and Brad Friedel and Collins were both cautioned for protesting, but it was a definite foul and Lampard stepped up to convert his first goal since August.
Villa's frustration got the better of them and they were penalised for more than one late tackle, while Nigel Reo-Coker, Agbonlahor and Clark were all booked before half-time.
Clark and the recalled Richard Dunne both missed glorious chances to level when they headed and hooked over, respectively, from close range as Chelsea's defence went to sleep.
Dunne also produced a last-gasp tackle to stop Malouda and a vital clearance to thwart Michael Essien.
Ramires was booked for clipping Petrov's heels and Villa's pressure finally told when Essien's clumsy tackle on Reo-Coker handed them a penalty four minutes before the break. Young made no mistake from the spot.
Collins nodded another half-chance too close to Petr Cech before half-time and Villa picked up where they had left off right from the restart.
And Heskey put them ahead just two minutes in when he climbed above young Bruma to power home Downing's excellent right-wing cross.
The former England player was then booked for a late tackle on Essien as Chelsea began to wake up to their predicament.
Lampard, Drogba and Ramires all saw shots blocked before the latter drilled just wide after the ball broke to him in the box.
The weakness of Ancelotti's bench was summed up when he sent on Jose Bosingwa for Paulo Ferreira.
Lampard was unlucky not to level in the 63rd minute when he sent a vicious volley straight at Friedel, who then brilliantly closed down Malouda as the forward tried to slot Lampard's ball through the keeper's legs.
Ancelotti threw on Salomon Kalou for Ramires for the final 17 minutes.
Downing drilled straight at Cech from 25 yards before Terry was carded for a lunge on Young and Ancelotti played his final card by introducing Daniel Sturridge for Nicolas Anelka.
Chelsea were denied in the final 10 minutes by some desperate Villa defending as the visiting fans began to chant, "You're getting sacked in the morning!", at Ancelotti.
But Drogba came to his manager's rescue six minutes from time with the ugliest of equalisers.
The struggling striker's miscontrol set up Kalou, whose shot was blocked back for Drogba to rifle home via Carlos Cuellar.
Drogba then nodded over Malouda's corner after Villa had brought on Marc Albrighton for an injured Agbonlahor.
With barely a minute remaining, Chelsea snatched what they thought was a winner.
Drogba's bullet header was parried by Friedel straight to Terry, who produced a superb sidefoot finish to spark wild celebrations, with Ancelotti mobbed by his own players.
But the joy was short-lived, with Clark stealing in completely unmarked at the back post to nod in Albrighton's cross.
There was still time for Drogba to volley Bosingwa's cross wide and Albrighton to mishit a volley as both sides poured forward in search of a winner.
