Google today announced a revolutionary new feature for Google Translate: animal language translation!
.
With this new technology, you will be able to talk to your dog, cat, bird or any other pet. Just speak into your smartphone's microphone and Google Translate will translate your voice into the animal's language in real time.
.
The technology uses advanced artificial intelligence to analyze the animals' sounds and vocal patterns, mapping them to words and phrases in Portuguese.
.
The system is still under development, but it is already capable of translating the languages of several domestic animals, such as dogs, cats, birds, horses and even cows.

I took a moment out of my busy schedule to thank this young lady for choosing to visit our country and spending her Yen here, as we need it more than … for instance the French or the Italians.
It turned out that her name is Janet and was born in London, attended Cheltenham Ladies College and is now an architectural student here in Bath at the university … I was a bit embarrassed and said something like, “well I’m so glad you didn’t decide to go to Japan to study architecture” she said “why would I want to do that, I don’t speak Japanese!” … I told her that I was surprised that she hadn’t picked up the language from her parents. She then told me that her parents were Chinese …. And were also born in England.
Anyway it was a real pleasure to meet her on this sunny day … these young people are the future … wherever they’re from.

Nothing About Us Without Us Is For Us was a public art event using obsolete technology to hurl language across Glasgow's River Clyde. Organised and conceived by artists TS Beall and Matt Baker, the project commissioned 15 artists to partner with 18 local organisations. Together, they delivered 6 weeks of activities, culminating in an event on Saturday 28 April, 2012 where over 1500 people sang, shouted, and sailed across the Clyde. Visitors to the Glasgow International Festival were invited to the Govan waterfront to participate in transmissions using human megaphones, siege engines, string-and-cup telephones, messages-in-bottles (‘The Govan Armada’), choral serenades, and more…

Urmia or (Turkish Language: اورمو, Urmu, Orumiyeh, Urmiye, Urmiya) is a city in Northwestern South Azerbaijan (Iranian Azerbaijan) and the capital of West Azerbaijan Province. The city lies on an altitude of 1,330 m above sea level on the Shahar Chaye river (City River). Urmia is the 10th populated city in iran and 2nd of Azerbaijanian Turks provinces after Tabriz. Urmia is the trade center for a fertile agricultural region where fruit (Specially Apple and Grape) and Tobacco are grown.An important town by the 9th cent. Urmia was seized by the Oghuz Turks (11th cent.), sacked by the Seljuk Turks (1184), and later occupied a number of times by the Ottoman Turks.The name Urmia or Urmu is thought to have come from Sumerian tongue, the earliest known civilization in the world located in southern Mesopotamia. Ur was a principle Sumerian city. Some believe the name is derived from Syriac. Ur, meaning "cradle," and mia, meaning "water". Hence, Urmia, situated by a lake and surrounded by rivers, would be the cradle of water.The population of Urmia is predominantly Azerbaijanian Turks (over 90%), but with Kurdish,Assyrian and Armenian minorities.
"KALLAR" is clearly the same in any language - or at least in Hindi, English and (presumably on the top line) Tamil. Between us, Bev and I took pictures of two different trilingual station signs. Much later, I was interested to note that there are two different ways to write the symbol "LLA" in the Devanagari (or Hindi) script.

Dashing Cornel Wilde (1912-1989) was a Hungarian-born Hollywood star. He played Tybalt in Laurence Olivier's 1940 Broadway production of 'Romeo and Juliet' when Hollywood spotted him. He leapt to fame and an Oscar nomination as Frédéric Chopin in A Song to Remember (1945). He spent the balance of the 1940s in romantic, and often swashbuckling, leading roles. In the 1950s his star dimmed a little, and aside from an occasional blockbuster like The Greatest Show on Earth (1952), he settled mainly into adventure films. In 1955 he formed his own company, Theodora Productions, to produce, direct, and star in his films; he ultimately made 11 films in that capacity but earned little critical respect for his work.
Cornel Wilde was born Kornel Lajos Weisz in 1912 to a Jewish family in Prievidza, Hungary, now part of Slovakia. His parents were Vojtech Béla Weisz (later anglicised to Louis Bela Wilde) and Rayna Miryam Vid (Renée Mary Vid). In 1920, he immigrated to New York City with his parents, and his elder sister, Edith. His family Americanised their names and Kornel took the name Cornelius Louis Wilde at the age of seven. His father was a travelling salesman for a cosmetics firm who did a lot of business in Europe. Wilde spent much of his youth travelling in Europe with him, where he became fluent in several languages. Cornel received a scholarship for medical school. Wilde entered Columbia University, class of 1933, as one of the youngest undergraduates. He fenced for the Columbia Lions fencing team and won the National Novice Foils Championship held at the New York Athletic Club in 1929. A champion fencer with the U.S. Olympic fencing team, he quit the team just before the 1936 Berlin Olympics to take a role in a play. After studying at Theodora Irvine's Studio of the Theatre, Wilde began appearing in plays in stock and New York. He made his Broadway debut in 1935 in 'Moon Over Mulberry Street'. He also appeared in 'Love Is Not So Simple', and 'Daughters of Etreus' and toured with Tallulah Bankhead in a production of 'Antony and Cleopatra'. In 1936 he began making small, uncredited appearances in films. Jim Beaver at IMDb: "In 1937, he married Marjory Heinzen (later known as Patricia Knight), and they both shaved a few years off their ages to get work, Wilde claimed publicly that he was born in New York in 1915, though he continued to list his correct Hungarian birth in 1912 on government documents." Shortening his name to Cornel Wilde for the stage, he appeared in the Broadway hit 'Having a Wonderful Time', but it was not until he was hired in the dual capacities of fencing choreographer and actor (Tybalt) in Laurence Olivier's 1940 Broadway production of 'Romeo and Juliet' that Hollywood spotted him. Although the show only had a small run, his performance in this role netted him a Hollywood film contract with Warner Bros. He played a few minor roles including a small role in the Film Noir High Sierra (Raoul Walsh, 1941). Then he leapt to fame as Frederic Chopin opposite Merle Oberon as George Sand in A Song to Remember (Charles Vidor, 1945). A Song to Remember was a big hit, made Wilde a star and earned him a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Actor. Columbia promptly used him in two Swashbucklers: as Aladdin in A Thousand and One Nights (Alfred E. Green, 1945) with Evelyn Keyes and as the son of Robin Hood in The Bandit of Sherwood Forest (Henry Levin, George Sherman, 1946). He played the male lead in Leave Her to Heaven (John <. Stahl, 1945), with Gene Tierney and Jeanne Crain. It was an enormous hit at the box office. Bandit was also a big hit when it was released. In 1946, Wilde was voted the 18th-most popular star in the United States, and in 1947 the 25th.
In January 1946, Cornel Wilde was suspended by his studio 20th Century Fox for refusing the male lead in Margie (Henry King, 1946). This suspension was soon lifted so Wilde could play the male lead in the studio's big-budget version of Forever Amber (Otto Preminger, Otto M. Stahl, 1947). Filming started, then was halted when the studio decided to replace the inexperienced Peggy Cummins as the female star with Linda Darnell. Wilde refused to return to work unless he was paid more; his salary was $3,000 a week, with six years to run – he wanted $150,000 per film for two films per year. The parties agreed and filming resumed. Wilde also appeared with Maureen O'Hara in the drama The Homestretch (H. Bruce Humberstone, 1947). He was in a comedy at Columbia with Ginger Rogers, It Had to Be You (Don Hartman, Rudolph Maté, 1947). At Fox, he turned down a role in the musical That Lady in Ermine (Ernst Lubitsch, Otto Preminger, 1948). Not wanting to go on suspension again he agreed to make The Walls of Jericho (John M. Stahl, 1948), from the same director as Leave Her to Heaven but less popular. Road House (Jean Negulesco, 1948) with Ida Lupino, for Fox, was a highly regarded Film Noir and a decent-sized hit. Wilde made an independent film in Switzerland, Swiss Tour/Four Days Leave (Leopold Lindtberg, 1949) with Josette Day and Simone Signoret. He then left Fox, which he later regarded as a mistake. Divorced from Patricia Knight, Wilde married Jean Wallace in 1951. They had a son and were divorced in 1980. In the 1950s Cornel Wilde's star dimmed a little. The Greatest Show on Earth (Cecil B. DeMille, 1952) was an enormous hit, though Wilde was one of several stars in the film. He settled mainly into adventure films such as Saadia (Albert Lewin, 1953) for MGM, Star of India (Arthur Lubin, 1954) for United Artists and Passion (Allan Dwan, 1954) for RKO. A growing interest in directing led him to form his own production company to direct his films. Several of his ventures into Film Noir in this period, both his own and other directors', are quite interesting, for example, The Big Combo (Joseph H. Lewis, 1955) and Storm Fear (Cornel Wilde, 1955) with Jean Wallace. As an actor only, he appeared in Hot Blood (1956) with Jane Russell for director Nicholas Ray, and had the lead in Edge of Eternity (1959) for director Don Siegel. Wilde went to Italy to star in the historical drama Costantino il grande/Constantine and the Cross (Lionello De Felice, 1962) with Belinda Lee and Massimo Serato. In Britain, he wrote, produced, directed and starred in Lancelot and Guinevere (1963). He produced, directed and starred in The Naked Prey (Cornel Wilde, 1965), a tour-de-force adventure drama that brought him real acclaim as a director. The film was inspired by the experiences of explorer John Colter, who was pursued by Blackfoot warriors through the American frontier in the early 1800s. The film was nominated for an Oscar for its script. His later films were of varying quality. He ended his career in the crime film Flesh and Bullets (1985), written, produced, edited and directed by Carlos Tobalina. It also features Yvonne de Carlo, Aldo Ray and Cesar Romero in minor roles. Cornel Wilde died of leukaemia in 1989, three days after his 77th birthday, leaving behind an unpublished autobiography, 'The Wilde Life'. His son, Cornel Wilde Jr., and daughter, Wendy, were at his side. He is interred in the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Westwood, Los Angeles.

To mark the accession of Croatia to the EU, the EBRD were delighted to premiere the country's official candidate for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 2012 Academy Awards in Hollywood.
72 Days is a brilliant black comedy, the debut feature of Danilo Serbedzija, starring his father Rade Serbedzija, seen in Before The Rain, Eyes Wide Shut, The Saint, and a leading actor on stage and screen across former Yugoslavia. He plays the battle-scarred patriarch of a spectacularly dysfunctional family surviving on the monthly pension of a grandmother whose husband was a cook in the US Army.
With lively acting from an experienced ensemble and fine camerawork by Sasa Rendulic capturing a rural back-water ravaged by the Balkan wars of the 1990s, the film won the Audience Award at Pula, and a string of international festival prizes.
The screening was presented by the director Danilo Serbedzija and followed by a Q&A session.

“Ho sognato che lei, seduta vicino al mio letto,
mi sollevava dolcemente con le mani i capelli,
facendomi sentire la gentilezza delle sue dita.
Guardavo il suo viso, lottando con le lacrime
che mi offuscavano lo sguardo,
finche’ il languore delle sue dolci parole
mi fermo’ il sogno, come una luce iridescente.”
