a curious pagan-y, folky feel. their enchanting medieval drones, bells and
harmonies, conjure up images of roald dahl’s three witches dancing around a
cauldron, chanting and transfixing. while not exactly synonymous with demons in
human form threatening to kill foul children, their slightly haunting, sinister
sound may just do for harmonies what david lynch did for eye patches everywhere. we caught up with liv
and said “please give us the low down on your life, before you make a frothy

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">the mind boggles. the media continues to whip the world into
frenzy over breasts; who saw whose breasts and where and how and why. that each human being, man, woman and child is
born with breasts, albeit more flatter, inverted variations, makes the mind
boggle further. if the bosom was only particular to the rarest breed of species,
i might better understand a photographers aggressive inquiry and their desire
to steal a glance at this, the most elusive of all natures’ creations. but no. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">as i type, i’m sat opposite a well-known musician in a shoreditch
coffee quarters. a pitcher of elderflower between us, this weedy fellow, i observe, has breasts. skinny
and flat chested as he is, i can see the soft tip of his nipples, gently
pressing against his white wife beater vest. when he bends to feed his even
hipper animal-creature-friend, chorizo, i catch a glimpse of his pink breasts. now
is my chance i tell myself! if i just hover over him ever so discreetly, with
my phone and simply click..!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">i don’t though. because i don’t care. because, i have
breasts and you have breasts and really, your breasts are altogether no
different from mine mr. bass player with your second album selling
sensationally on i-tunes. </span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">but mostly i’d get very little for your bosom, as the
media haven’t successfully sexualised and objectified you beyond what is
evolutionary possible. yet.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">when he lifts his head, he catches my gaze, staring blankly at
his man chest as i mull over ethics, accessibility and the i-phone. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">yesterday’s death of sunday times journalist marie colvin highlights the incredible danger journalists and photographers place themselves in to achieve a story. but it also shows the dedication of these people to show the truth to the world.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">marie colvin was an experienced journalist who had reported from several war torn countries, including the former yugoslavia, sri lanka, east timor, and from various locations in the middle east. her work was admired by both her contemporaries and the public, and along with other awards she was named foreign correspondent of the year on two separate occasions by the british press awards. her death in the city of homs in syria ended a life that was spent chasing the truth and bringing it to the masses, despite the threats she invariably faced in these situations.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span lang="EN-US">the dangers facing journalists like mari</span>e colvin, and photographer rémi ochlik, who was also killed in the same attack at the age of 28, should not be taken lightly. the importance of war journalism is sometimes forgotten by people; some believe journalists who put themselves in these kinds of situations do so more for the adrenaline and fame factors rather than for the search of truth. but in reality, without these kinds of individuals the stories of so many innocent victims of regimes’ such as assad’s would not be brought to the attention of the west. in the past, reports from war zones showed people the truth about what was happening in places like bosnia and rwanda, spurring foreign governments into taking action and stirring public pressure.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">if any good can come of these deaths, the increasing force the international community is putting on the syrian regime as a direct result of them may help alleviate the suffering of the syrian people. french president nicolas sarkozy has already said “this is enough now, this regime must go”, and other world leaders agree. british prime minister david cameron told the house of commons: "this is a desperately sad reminder of the risks that journalists take to inform the world of what is happening and the dreadful events in syria”.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">the deaths of journalists in war zones are sadly not new, and remain a terrible reminder that these kinds of regimes have no care for human life. not only does assad have no respect for his own people, who he is picking off in slow mode genocide, but he also seemingly has no concern in angering the international community. people can only hope that these deaths will spur governments into action, to help the innocent people of syria. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">ivan m. granger is a poet and the creator of one of our favourite poetry websites, poetry chaikhana. ivan joyfully shares the sacred poetry of cultures, religions, and spiritual traditions from around the world. in particular, poetry chaikhana has a middle eastern theme, honouring the vibrantly, devotional, irreverent, and truly profound sacred poetry the region has given to the world. but ivan also says there is another important reason for this middle eastern flavour: to counter the miserably limited portrayal of middle eastern cultures and religion we are given in the west. he says “although i am not a muslim or sufi, it is desperately important to remind the western world of the rich spirituality the middle east has given to us”.</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">ivan lives in colorado with his wife michelle. the man’s a mystic - sign up to the chaikhana poetry mail out and you will concur i'm sure. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

OMAR SHARIF!? we couldn’t think of any one we’d like to meet more, aside from murphy brown, perhaps. as we journeyed west, arlin helped us compile a list of nine ( he hopped off before we could get to ten) yiddish words, you need to know, now. it doesn’t matter, that after all that, we realised that omar sharif isn’t in fact jewish and never was. however, we suppose that these additional words, a source of rich expressions, will benefit your syntax thus improving brain elasticity. happy days. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; line-height: normal;"><br />
