Conducta (2014) Just two weeks after its premier, the cuban film Conducta, has filled cuban movie theatres. Written and Directed by Ernesto Daranas (“Los Dioses Rotos”, 2009), the movie tells the story of “Chala”, a 12 year old social outcast from La Habana, and his relationship with Carmela, his veteran sixth grade teacher.
Having a promiscuous, drogadict mom, not knowing who his dad was, and living in a ramshackle house, Chala spent his days at school and his afternoons training fight dogs (an illegal activity in Cuba) in order to make a living for him and his mother. The movie that is attracting thousands of viewers to the theatres is already considered the biggest audiovisual event of the year.

The creek runoff was causing a small rapids just before entering the ocean. This Mew Gull was "riding the rapids" repeatedly. I watched as this gull made at least 6 "rides" down the rapids. Was this something the gull did for "fun" or food or bath or _______?
Climate Action Day observed
Drawing attention on the need to reduce carbon in the atmosphere to a scientifically determined safe level of 350 ppm, the International Day of Climate Action was observed in the country yesterday.
Different social and environmental organisations held different programmes in the city and across the country to mark the day.
With the slogan of "Change Behavior, Not Climate," Work for a Better Bangladesh (WBB Trust) organised a colourful rally from National Museum to TSC of Dhaka University with participation of a large number of children from different parts of the city.

The speakers said that the temperatures are rising and storms are worsening due to the whimsical behaviour of human beings. Ice is melting and sea levels are rising day by day and due to the reason Bangladesh is likely to go underwater within a short peroiod, As a result, a large number of coastal people of the country will be homeless, they added.
They also said that the climate changes are going to worsen because people are burning fossil fuels - diesel, petrol, natural gas and coal - at rapid rates. So the future generations are now under threat.
They stressed on the importance of changing behaviour to balance the climate to raise attention to the 350 ppm target for reducing climate change.

Gov. Markell kicked off the statewide expansion of Motivate the First State, an online health-and-fitness-tracking portal that offers 139 activities to log, with remarks April 22 at the Dover YMCA and a walk with 50 first-graders from nearby South Dover Elementary School.
Gov. Markell said expanding Motivate the First State from mainly Sussex County and the YMCA network will help to push Delaware toward being a healthier state. About two-thirds of Delaware adults are an unhealthy weight, either obese or overweight, and about half of our state’s residents don’t regular physical activity. “Government can’t solve this problem. It just can’t,” the Governor said. “In the end, it comes down to each one of us.”
In the 2015 pilot, 2,600 Delawareans logged nearly 100,00 activities, 3.8 million minutes of physical activities and generated $39,948 for the YMCA of Delaware, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Delaware and Special Olympics Delaware. “This campaign allows all Delawareans, including those with special needs and limited movement, to help others by logging their healthy behaviors,” DHSS Secretary Rita Landgraf said. Healthy behaviors include drinking water, brushing teeth, volunteering, gardening, applying sunscreen, walking, cycling, yoga and using a wheelchair.
“How do we make being physically active more fun?” said Jason Danner, campaign director. “Physical activity is a gigantic part of what all three of these organizations do. We are eager to include more corporate partners so that we can reach more Delawareans.”
Delaware is the first state to have a statewide activity-tracking portal, said Rick Sutton, founder and CEO of Plus3.com, which powers the website. The more time and activities you log at www.MotivatetheFirstState.com, the more micro-payments go to three statewide health-related charities. An individual’s Motivate the First State account also can be synced to Garmin and fitbit devices.
To join Motivate the First State either as an individual or as a team, go to www.MotivatetheFirstState.com
