The Bridge will soon be upon us (10th July on FX), but let's not forget about another Bron / Broen adaptation, the French / British one, Le Tunnel / The Tunnel, starring Clémence Poésy & Stephen Dillane.I found that photo in this article — basically, it describes the project, that they were filming a scene in the Ramsgate harbour near the cliffs of Kent when the journalist was on the set, that season 1 will wrap in July, how the fact that it's bilingual makes it unique and challenging (two casting directors, two versions of every script or revelant document, shooting in two different countries, etc), that much like in the series there have been cultural clashes between the French and British elements of the crew, that the British director wanted the French chef to come and cook for them when they're in the UK, and that it's the company's first forray into dramatic series - Shine France had thus far only produced reality TV cra-- shows.All 10 episodes will air in October/November on Canal+. It'll air around the same time on Sky Atlantic.

"Blue is the Warmest Color," Abdellatif Kechiche's three-hour coming-of-age drama about a teenage girl in a lesbian relationship, was named the best film in the main competition at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival by the Fipresci International Federation of Film Critics. The film, titled "La Vie D'Adele – Chapitre 1 & 2" in French, received widespread attention for its lengthy, graphic sex scenes, but it also took many critics by surprise and became one of the best-reviewed films of the festival.

Protesters to march vs Monsanto in 250 cities via Rickey.org Protesters to ‘March Against Monsanto’ across US, around globe in collective anti-GMO rally LOS ANGELES (AP) — Marches and rallies against seed giant Monsanto were held across the U.S. and in dozens of other countries Saturday. “March Against Monsanto” protesters say they want to call attention to the dangers posed by genetically modified food and the food giants that produce it. Marches are planned for more than 250 cities around the globe, according to organizers. Genetically modified plants are grown from seeds that are engineered to resist insecticides and herbicides, add nutritional benefits or otherwise improve crop yields and increase the global food supply. Most corn, soybean and cotton crops grown in the United States today have been genetically modified. But some say genetically modified organisms can lead to serious health conditions and harm the environment. Monsanto Co., based in St. Louis, said Saturday that it respects people’s rights to express their opinion on the topic, but maintains that its seeds improve agriculture by helping farmers produce more from their land while conserving resources such as water and energy. The use of GMOs has been a growing issue of contention in recent years, with health advocates pushing for mandatory labeling of genetically modified products even though the federal government and many scientists say the technology is safe. The Food and Drug Administration does not require the labeling, but organic food companies and some consumer groups have intensified their push for labels, arguing that the modified seeds are floating from field to field and contaminating traditional crops. The groups have been bolstered by a growing network of consumers who are wary of processed and modified foods. The Senate this week overwhelmingly rejected a bill that would allow states to require labeling of genetically modified foods. The Biotechnology Industry Organization, a lobbying group that represents Monsanto, DuPont & Co. and other makers of genetically modified seeds, has said that it supports voluntary labeling for people who seek out such products. But it says that mandatory labeling would only mislead or confuse consumers into thinking the products aren’t safe, even though the FDA has said there’s no difference between GMO and organic, non-GMO foods. However, state legislatures in Vermont and Connecticut moved ahead this month with a vote to make food companies declare genetically modified ingredients on their packages. And supermarket retailer Whole Foods Markets Inc. has said that all products in its North American stores that contain genetically modified ingredients will be labeled as such by 2018. Whole Foods says there is growing demand for products that don’t use GMOs, with sales of products with a “Non-GMO” verification label spiking between 15 percent and 30 percent. __ Online: http://www.march-against-monsanto.com/p/blog-page.html http://www.monsanto.com Copyright (2013) Associated Press.

Judge: Ariz. sheriff’s office profiles Latinos via Rickey.org Judge finds Ariz. sheriff’s office racially profiles Latinos in immigration patrols PHOENIX (AP) — A federal judge has ruled that the office of America’s self-proclaimed toughest sheriff systematically singled out Latinos in its trademark immigration patrols, marking the first finding by a court that the agency racially profiles people. The decision by U.S. District Judge Murray Snow in Phoenix backs up years of allegations from Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s critics who say his officers violate the constitutional rights of Latinos in relying on race in their immigration enforcement. Snow, whose ruling Friday came more than eight months after a seven-day, non-jury trial, also ruled Arpaio’s deputies unreasonably prolonged the detentions of people who were pulled over. The ruling marks a thorough repudiation of the immigration patrols that made Arpaio a national political figure, and it represents a victory for those who pushed the lawsuit. “For too long the sheriff has been victimizing the people he’s meant to serve with his discriminatory policy,” said Cecillia D. Wang, director of the ACLU Immigrants’ Right Project. “Today we’re seeing justice for everyone in the county.” Monetary damages weren’t sought in the lawsuit but rather a declaration that Arpaio’s office engages in racial profiling and an order that requires it to make policy changes. Stanley Young, the lead lawyer who argued the case against Arpaio, said Snow set a hearing for June 14 where he will hear from the two sides on how to make sure the orders in the ruling are carried out. The sheriff, who has repeatedly denied the allegations, won’t face jail time as a result of Friday’s ruling. Tim Casey, Arapio’s lead attorney in the case, said an appeal was planned in the next 30 days. “In the meantime, we will meet with the court and comply with the letter and spirit of the order,” he said. A small group of Latinos alleged in their lawsuit that Arpaio’s deputies pulled over some vehicles only to make immigration status checks. The group asked Snow to issue injunctions barring the sheriff’s office from discriminatory policing and the judge ruled that more remedies could be ordered in the future. The group also accused the sheriff of ordering some immigration patrols not based on reports of crime but rather on letters and emails from Arizonans who complained about people with dark skin congregating in an area or speaking Spanish. The group’s attorneys noted Arpaio sent thank-you notes to some who wrote the complaints. The sheriff said his deputies only stop people when they think a crime has been committed and that he wasn’t the person who picked the location of the patrols. His lawyers said there was nothing wrong with the thank-you notes. Young, the group’s lawyer, said he was still reading the decision Friday but noted it contained “very detailed findings of discriminatory intent and effect.” Casey said that MCSO’s position “is that it has never used race and will never use race in its law-enforcement decisions.” He added the sheriff’s office relied on “bad training” from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. A call to ICE officials in Phoenix for comment wasn’t immediately returned Friday evening. Arpaio, who turns 81 next month, was elected in November to his sixth consecutive term as sheriff in Arizona’s most populous county. Known for jailing inmates in tents and making prisoners wear pink underwear, Arpaio started doing immigration enforcement in 2006 amid Arizona voter frustration with the state’s role as the nation’s busiest illegal entryway. Snow wrote that “in the absence of further facts that would give rise to reasonable suspicion or probable cause that a violati
