- Inge Laird obituary
Inge Elsa Laird, who has died of cancer aged 71, was a generous-spirited supporter of the arts and a fine poet.Throughout the 1980s, Inge became increasingly involved in the literary magazine New Departures and in the annual Poetry Olympics festival established by my father, the poet Michael Horovitz. She eventually became the co-editor of New Departures.Born in Düsseldorf, Germany, the younger child of Margarete and Robert Drenker, Inge spent the second world war years unaware of the Jewish heritage that her mother's marriage to her Christian father hid. She only began to fully rediscover her Jewish identity after meeting members of my father's family in the 1980s.After the war, Inge's parents divorced and she lived with her mother, step- father and brother 。ünther in a small flat near her aunt and uncle's farm, which cemented Inge's love of the countryside, especially after the privations of war in urban Düsseldorf. Inge revelled in school life, sports and the company of her fellow students.Having started her working career as a teenager scouting out package holiday destinations for a German travel agency, she came to Britain in 1962 to brush up her English and worked as a model for portrait painting classes in Richmond, Surrey. She met and married the trumpeter Michael Laird and their daughter, Nicola, was born in 1964.Inge settled into British life but never lost her connections with Germany – her accent stayed, though it softened. She worked at W & A Houben, a bookshop in Richmond, owned by a Holocaust survivor; for Lufthansa airlines; and for the hairdresser Vidal Sassoon as a translator and interpreter.Inge found in herself an ever- deepening stillness as a poet and performer. She often collaborated with musicians to allow herself, and the words, time to breathe. _NULL_

- Rudi van Dantzig obituary
Choreographer of socially aware ballets who became a novelistThe choreographer and director Rudi van Dantzig, who has died of cancer aged 78, played a major role in the development of classical ballet in the Netherlands. He also had a second career, which developed later in his life, as a novelist and biographer. As a choreographer, Van Dantzig made more than 50 works, most of them on contemporary themes, although he also produced well-received versions of standard classics such as Romeo and Juliet and Swan Lake.Many of his ballets contain a strong thread of social criticism. Nor was he afraid to explore difficult subjects. The vividly theatrical Monument for a Dead Boy (1965) told the story of a boy who discovers his hitherto repressed homosexuality and is ultimately destroyed by his own desires. This ballet brought Van Dantzig international notice and was mounted for several major companies. Among the interpreters of the leading role, originally created by Van Dantzig's partner, the dancer and designer Toer van Schayk, was Rudolf Nureyev.Painted Birds (1971) was an early alert to man's ability to pollute both minds and the environment, and made extensive use of film projections to illustrate and amplify the action on stage. Its final coup de théatre came when the music by Niccolò Castiglioni gave way to a recording of the final chorale from Bach's St Matthew Passion, which was taken up by the cast, the choreographer and some of the company's staff.He could be light-hearted too. His version of Afternoon of a Faun – made for Nureyev, a lifelong friend – involved a gentle flirtation between a janitor and two factory girls. His Four Last Songs, to Richard Strauss's song cycle, was restrained and moving.Van Dantzig was born in Amsterdam to strongly leftwing parents. He was null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse. Please see responseStatus: 40
- Why Mali is missing its old way of life
Madeleine Bunting is in Mali to find out about the impact of climate change on some of the most remote areas in the world. In the first of her reports, she finds that everyone wants to talk about the encroaching desertI've just arrived in the Mopti region of central Mali, about 310 miles east of the capital, Bamako. As we headed east, the land became drier. The trees thinned out until we were heading across an area of scrubland; odd bushes in a plateau of rocky outcrops and patches of sand. It's the end of the rainy season, so the land is delicately greened with a thin covering of grass. This is cattle country and the only sign of human habitation between the distant villages is the occasional herd of cattle driven by young men. But the cattle are looking sleek and well-fed; the rains have been relatively good.But the green landscape and the well-fed cattle are fragile signals of a delicate ecology. During the nine months of the dry season, fierce winds bring desert sand, coating the bushes, and the heat quickly shrivels vegetation; everything is coated in its gritty dust. This is border country, a land close enough to the desert regions of northern Mali and the Sahara, and now struggling to hold the desert at bay. Everywhere, this subject slips into conversation; people refer to a time when forests were still plentiful in the area, when the harvest was better and there were wild fruits to gather. It's not just the nostalgia of the elderly, even the young interpreter who is travelling with me talks of his home village further north, and how the trees have disappeared and the desert has encroached.I'm here to find out about the impact of climate change on one of the most remote parts of the world and we're due to drive even further east, almost to the border of Burkina F マドレーヌバンティングは、世界で最も遠隔地のいくつかの気候変動の影響を見つけるのにマリです

- Yoga expert: 'It seems idiotic they can patent it'
Swami Pragyamurti Saraswati argues that Indian government's attempt to create a rigid system of yoga misses the pointThe 64,000 postures form only a tiny part of yoga. Poses are not an end in themselves, but a preparation for deeper, more meaningful practices. The word yoga means oneness and unity – unity with the self. Discover who you are, and then that can give you a sense of oneness with others and ultimately the whole of creation, and the divine.Poses are not the definition of yoga, which consists of breathing practices, deep relaxation, and meditative practices – not just postures. There's a whole yoga to do with mantras, another to do with music.I would definitely give anyone trying to patent any postures a very wide berth. They haven't invented anything. The practices and traditions of yoga go back thousands of years. At best, we are interpreters of ancient wisdom.The patenting and filming of specific positions is distressing. Yoga is a huge body of knowledge and practice, and you can't patent such a large entity, let alone a very small percentage of it.Nor is it the preserve of India alone. Yes, it It has been nurtured for many centuries by the monastic and guru traditions in India, but statues and paintings depicting yoga practices have been discovered all over the world. In Colombia, there are statues of people sitting in yoga positions, and adopting breathing and meditative practices, so yoga is broader than just Indian and it seems absolutely idiotic that they can patent it.In fact, I'm distressed at the way things have developed in recent years. When yoga first became popular in the 60s in the western world, it was about an expansion of consciousness. We were looking for deeper truth. Those first Swamis who travelled to London in the 60s brought us a mixtu スワミPragyamurtiサラスワティは、インド政府の試みは、ヨガの厳格なシステムを作成するためにヨガのほんの一部を形成するpointThe 64,000姿勢をミスと主張する
- Greece 'shamed' by migrant internment centres
UN's special rapporteur on torture, Manfred Nowak, described conditions in overcrowded buildings as inhumanFor hundreds of thousands of migrants hoping to reach Europe from Turkey, the journey comes to an abrupt end in a Greek internment centre.Conditions in the centres are so harsh that last week the UN's special rapporteur on torture, Manfred Nowak, described them as inhuman.On islands such as Samos and Lesbos, which border the Turkish coast, it is not uncommon for as many as 30 men to be kept in a room sharing a single toilet and filthy mattresses. Basic commodities such as soap and razor blades are rare. Without interpreters, bewildered refugees, mostly from Africa, Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere in Asia, are unable to communicate with officials.Concerned locals do their best, handing out food and clothes, but despite the election of a socialist government which has taken a more sympathetic approach to migrants, observers say the conditions have brought shame on Greece.Last year, amid chaotic scenes, hundreds of migrants in a detention centre on Lesbos demonstrated against their treatment. Children on hunger strike protested by setting fire to mattresses and attacking guards.Since assuming office last October, George Papandreou's government has made efforts to sensitise local authorities, particularly border and coastguard officials long accused of forced expulsions and pushing migrants back across the porous frontiers Greece shares with Turkey.But coping with the influx is far from easy. With a coastline that stretches for more than 10,000 miles, Greece has become Europe's front line. As its emergency request this week revealed, it is desperately in need of help.Helena Smith GreeceUnited NationsHuman rightsHelena Smithguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Li 拷問に関する国連特別報告者は、マンフレッドNowakさん、トルコからヨーロッパに達することを望んで移民の何千ものinhumanForの何百も過。建物の条件を説明する旅は、センターでギリシャ抑留centre.Conditionsの突然の終わりに来るように最後の過酷さの週国連の特別報告者は、マンフレッドNowakさん、拷問サモス島とレスボス島、多くの30人は、単一のトイレを共有する部屋で保管するの境界線のトルコの海岸、それは珍しいことではないなどのinhuman.On島としてそれらを説明と不潔なマットレス
