The festival, launched in 2009 in Doha, seeks to showcase the work of Arab filmmakers who this year were able to draw on the momentous political changes in their own countries for artistic inspiration. Highlights include Rouge Parole, set in the tumult of revolutionary Tunisia, which charts the expulsion of its president and the country’s first steps toward democracy. Sherif El Bendary’s On the Road to Downtown, set in Cairo’s Tahrir Square, follows the lives and hopes of six people connected in different ways to the city’s downtown core. “Our selection of documentaries T provides for reflection on political change. But we also offer a number of films that look into private worlds and subtler aspects of the Middle Eastern experience that are not always evident to political observers,” said the festival’s Chief Arab Programer, Hania Mroue. “The Virgin, the Copts and Me” takes on an otherworldly subject in investigating the appearance of the Virgin Mary to millions of Egyptians via a videotape on which only true believers can see her image. “This is a very important film for post-revolutionary Egypt, as it sheds light on the Coptic community, which was taboo to do a few years ago,” Mroue said. The Algerian title “Normale” examines what happened in the Algerian street as neighboring countries’ dictators were being toppled. “The youth in Algeria felt they could now express themselves more freely. The film addresses the revolution in a very subtle way,” she said. Lina Alabed’s “Yearning” focuses on the lives of women in Damascus and their approach to personal freedom in a society dominated by men. Women are also the focus in two sports documentaries that examine the taboos surrounding women and boxing in Tunisia (“Boxing with Her”), and the life-altering experience of a young women’s basketball team in northern Iraq (“Salaam Dunk”). Other headliners include the world premiere of “Black Gold” with Antonio Banderas, set in the 1930s at the dawn of the oil boom and the first major motion picture shot in Qatar. Laila Hotait Salas’ “Crayons of Askalan” recreates the powerful story of Palestinian artist Zuhdi al Adawi, imprisoned at the age of 15 in Israel’s notorious Askalan jail. Qatar launched the film festival as a partnership between the Doha Film Institute and Tribeca Enterprises, which also operates New York’s Tribeca Film Festival. Created as a way to rejuvenate lower Manhattan after the September 11, 2001 attacks which destroyed the World Trade Center, the Tribeca Film Festival in New York has become a showcase for international films with a political edge. Organizers said the Doha event aims to do the same, using the festival to shine a spotlight on Arab cinema. “We don’t want to focus only on the big names, we want to give space also for new voices, especially from the region,” Mroue said.

New York Times’ critic Ben Brantly described her as being fraught with “self-consciousness” and only glancingly acquainted with the two characters she plays.” Brantley also criticised the production of “Greenberg’s slender, elegant play,” writing that “it’s almost impossible to discern its artistic virtues from this wooden and splintered interpretation, directed by Joe Mantello. Three Days of Rain received two Tony Award nominations in stagecraft categories. Julia starred with Clive Owen in the comedy-thriller Duplicity for which she received her seventh Golden Globe nomination. In 2010, she appeared in the ensemble romantic comedy Valentine’s Day, with Cooper, and starred in the film adaptation of Eat Pray Love.

HEALTH Thursday, October 27, 2011 www.qatar-tribune.com 31 Foods that keep us warm in cold days DURING winter the cold weather lowers blood pH therefore making it more acidic, and in order to compensate for this acidic blood pH we need to eat foods that will help to raise, or alkaline, blood pH levels. By doing this your body’s chemistry will be balanced and as a result you will feel warmer and more comfortable this winter. Eating foods such as protein and fat can help to raise the blood pH back into the normal range, therefore this winter try eating plenty of meat, fish, eggs, nuts and high fat dairy and you should feel warmer. Eating foods that contain niacin will also help to warm you up during the cold months. Niacin, which is a vitamin, also known as vitamin B3, helps to stabilise the nervous system and boost the circulatory system. It plays a role in expanding the capillaries, thus getting more blood to warm up the hands and the feet. Foods like milk, eggs and cheese all contain a good quantity of niacin, and other abundant in this B vitamin include animal liver, sesame, and peanuts, as well as all-wheat products. Health guide Nutrition facts on food packets must be made simpler: Experts Front-package labels have grown in popularity over the last decade, but because there are so many different nutrition symbols and rating systems, many shoppers have just become confused STEVEN REINBERG HEALTHDAY NEWS S agencies should revamp the labels on the front of food and beverage packages to make it as simple as possible for consumers to figure out how nutritious a product really is, a new Institute of Medicine report concludes. “There are a lot of different [rating] systems out there,” said Ellen Wartella, chair of the IOM committee that wrote the report, and director of the Canter on Media and Human Development at Northwestern University. “But no one system has all the features we think are most helpful. Our goal is to say no one has to be a nutrition scientist to discern whether a packaged food is healthy or not healthy.” “We want something that’s readily identifiable, easily understood and that cues the consumer that this is a healthy product,” Wartella added. The report suggests creating a rating system that uses symbols to convey calorie counts by serving size, and a point system that tells consumers whether the levels of saturated fats, trans fats, sodium and sugar in the products are more or less healthy than recommended. Front-package labels have grown in popularity over the last decade, but because there are so many different nutrition symbols and rating systems, many shoppers have just become confused, Wartella said. The IOM committee recommends that front packaging labels be standardised and, at the same time, motivate food and beverage companies to reformulate products to be healthier and get food stores to prominently display products that meet healthier standards. The committee’s concept is for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to develop and test labels that are visual and easy to understand. The idea is that government food labels can serve the same purpose as the government’s Energy Star program, which rates appliances by their energy efficiency. The label should also be located in the same spot on all products, and reflect the current healthy dietary recommendations from the USDA and other groups. A single system would let consumers quickly compare choices within a variety of food cate- U gories, the report said. Determining whether or not a product can carry a healthy food package label would be done on a point system based on how much sugar, salt and fat it contained. These were picked because they are linked to obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure, among other illnesses. To be eligible for a “healthy” label, the product would have to have limited amounts of sugar, salt and trans fats, the IOM committee said. “For example, 100 percent whole-wheat bread could earn all three points; graham crackers could earn two points for fats and sodium; and an oatand-peanut butter bar could earn one point for sodium,” the committee noted. Items with the most points would signal to consumers that these are the healthiest choices. Samantha Heller, clinical nutrition coordinator at the Canter for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital in Derby, Conn., said that “one of the reasons nutrition labels are so confusing is that nutrition is very complicated. “In fact, the current labeling system is so confounding to consumers that as part of a series of adult nutrition classes, I devote a onehour class to reading and understanding the Nutrition Facts Panel,” she added. Simplifying front package labeling so consumers can make healthier choices is a great idea if the IOM can make it work, Heller said. “It is a huge undertaking and fraught with difficulties on many levels, from the food companies push-back to consumer understanding and education,” she said. It is difficult to apply the same standards to all foods, Heller said. “Some healthy foods may come up short and some less-than-healthy foods may end up getting more checks than they really deserve,” she noted. “All this said, we do need an easy guidance system of some kind that will encourage consumers to make informed decisions about their food choices. The real question is, will a ratings system ultimately affect peoples buying habits or their health?” she added. The Grocery Manufacturers Association has already come up with its own labeling system. “In January, the Grocery Manufacturers Association and the Food Marketing Institute launched Facts Up Front, a factbased, front-of-pack nutrition labeling system to help busy consumers — especially parents — make informed decisions when they shop,” said association spokesman Brian Kennedy. The IOM report is an addition to the national dialogue about such nutrition labeling, Kennedy said. “However, it is largely an academic exercise, like many before it. The point-based system recommended by the IOM is unproven, complex and therefore likely to be confusing. It would also fail to provide consumers with the simple and clear facts they want,” he added. “Meanwhile, food and beverage companies have developed a real-world program that delivers real value to consumers in real time.” 32 Thursday, October 27, 2011 CHANNEL SURFING www.qatar-tribune.com BEST ON TV TONIGHT 11:00 pm BBC World: BBC WORLD NEWS AMERICA 7:50 pm Disney Junior: JAKE & THE NEVERLAND PIRATES 7:00 pm Fox Sports: MLB: WORLD SERIES GAME 6 (IF NECESSARY): TBA AT TBA OR PRIME/TIME BOXING, LUCAS MOTORSPORTS HOUR 10:00 pm Discovery HD Showcase: THE HISTORY OF SINGAPORE TV PRIME TIME GUIDE 7:00 PM BBC WORLD CNN INTERNATIONAL CARTOON NETWORK DISNEY JUNIOR THE HUB WITH NIK GOWING PRISM GENERATOR REX MICKEY MOUSE CLUBHOUSE WORLD BUSINESS REPORT INTERNATIONAL DESK 8:00 PM SPORT TODAY 9:00 PM WORLD NEWS TODAY WITH ZEINAB BADAWI 9:30 PM WORLD BUSINESS REPORT 10:30 PM ICON HERO 108 SPORT TODAY BBC WORLD NEWS AMERICA THE AMAZING WORLD OF GUMBALL JAKE & THE NEVERLAND PIRATES BILLY & MANDY JUNGLE JUNCTION BEN 10 MICKEY MOUSE CLUBHOUSE THE SECRET SATURDAYS SAMURAI JACK CONNECT THE WORLD WITH BECKY ANDERSON HARDTALK MEGAS XLR NEWS CHANNELS AMERICAN CHOPPER ECOPOLIS FOOD NETWORK EXTREME SPORTS FOX SPORTS GIULIANA & BILL CHEF VS BRITAIN EDDIE JORDAN’S BAD BOY RACERS MLB: WORLD SERIES GAME 6 (IF NECESSARY): TBA AT TBA OR PRIME/TIME BOXING, LUCAS MOTORSPORTS HOUR CHELSEA LATELY IMAGINATION MOVERS TIMMY TIME BAKUGAN BATTLE BRAWLERS PIERS MORGAN TONIGHT WEIRD CONNECTIONS THROUGH THE WORMHOLE W/ MORGAN FREEMAN E!

The song will feature in Bieber’s upcoming holiday album Under The Mistletoe and the singer thinks the pair has recorded a classic that will become a festive favourite for years to come. “It’s a record that has always been one of my favourites, and I’m happy that I was able to share it with Justin, and for us to put it out. The album is full of surprises, Justin’s Under The Mistletoe is going to be incredible,” said the 33-year-old Usher. FORMER couple Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston have been voted as the Most Fit Over 40 stars in a new survey. The two beat actors Halle Berry and Will Smith to walk away with the top spot in the survey conducted by FITNESS magazine and Yahoo OMG!, reports usmagazine.com. Aniston also won the title of Most-Wanted Celebrity Body and Most-Wanted Celeb Body Part. On the other hand, singer Jennifer Lopez was voted the Best Body After Baby and the title of Hottest Celeb Couple went to David and Victoria Beckham. 35 BRAD PITT AND JENNIFER ANISTON JUSTIN BIEBER Kelly Clarkson comes out STRONGER AP BY CRISTINA JALERU ELLY Clarkson has been wowing audiences with her powerful voice since she burst onto the scene as the first American Idol winner a decade ago. Since then, the dynamic singer has sold millions by making female empowerment anthems her mantra, from booming pop-rock songs that call for women to stand up for themselves to finger-wagging tunes that tell not-goodenough men that they’re not good enough. Clarkson’s fifth studio album, Stronger, addresses the same issues with a “richer and fuller” sound than usual: Clarkson said she wanted to sound like she does when performing live, without employing any of the modern day tuning aides. The result is a more natural sound that allows her already explosive voice to bloom even more. The record is full of danceable tracks that just won’t budge from your humming repertoire. Whether it’s pop, rock, 1980s riffs or electro streaks, Stronger has all the ingredients for a well-balanced offering. Clarkson worked on the eclectic record with a variety of A-list producers such as Rodney Jerkins, Greg Kurstin, Josh Abraham, and Toby Gad. She also cowrote five of the album’s tracks. First single Mr. Know It All hits all the right notes by going for the jugular, with lyrics like You ain’t got the right to tell me/ When and where to go, and Mr. Bring me down/ Well ya like to bring me down don’t ya/ But I ain’t laying down. Along the way, her unstoppable voice channels Bonnie Tyler and Tori Amos in Honestly, which urges for complete disclosure (even if the truth hurts); I Forgive You and You Can’t Win sound like they were made for the soundtrack of an adorable rom-com. Only Clarkson can beguile with a ballad like Dark Side, half music box chimes, half pop anthem. Everybody has a dark K Clarkson’s fifth studio album, Stronger, addresses the same issues with a “richer and fuller” sound than usual The cover of the album stronger side/Do you love me?/Can you love mine?
