Laksmi Pamuntjak

Laksmi Pamuntjak (born December 22, 1971) is an Indonesian poet and writer. She was born and bred in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Her three editions of the award-winning The Jakarta Good Food Guide have made her a leading voice in contemporary food writing in Indonesia. She also belongs to a rare breed of Indonesian contemporary writers writing both in English and Indonesian. When her first collection of poetry, Ellipsis, came out, The Jakarta Post wrote, “Although some literary works of local authors, like those of Pramoedya Ananta Toer, have also gained international recognition, Laksmi has become the first whose book has been mentioned as a book of the year.” Ellipsis also appeared in The Herald UK Books of the Year 2005 list. In 2006, Pamuntjak released her treatise on violence and the Iliad entitled Perang, Langit dan Dua Perempuan (War, Heaven, and Two Women), along with her first collection of art-inspired short stories, The Diary of R.S.: Musings on Art. 

In 2007, she published The Anagram, her second poetry collection, along with On God and Other Unfinished Things, her translation of Tuhan dan Hal-Hal yang Tak Selesai, a book of aphorisms by the renowned Indonesian poet, journalist and intellectual Goenawan Mohamad.

Pamuntjak is presently working on her first novel, The Blue Widow. It is set primarily in Buru Island, Maluku, Indonesia, the site of a penal colony during the repressive Suharto administration where approximately 12,000 alleged communists were detained without due process. She lives in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Jade Chung (b. November 6, 1984) is a Canadian professional wrestling manager and wrestler who has appeared in Border City Wrestling, IWA Mid-South, the National Wrestling Alliance, Ring of Honor and Pro Wrestling Guerilla. She has managed some of the top wrestlers on the independent circuit including Frankie Kazarian, Jimmy Rave, Nate Mattson, Conrad Kennedy III, A-1 and Scorpio Sky as well as Mr. Hughes and ”Franchise” Shane Douglas. [6]

Early life and career

Born in Guelph, Ontario of Chinese-Vietnamese decent, Chung started modeling at the age of 12 as a runway model and appeared in cover stories for several fashion magazines while modeling in Vietnam. A wrestling fan as a child, she often watched the World Wrestling Federation well into high school. Chung was encouraged to enter professional wrestling after meeting Beth Phoenix and Traci Brooks at a local wrestling event and spent her summers training at Rob Fuego’s Toronto-based wrestling school Squared Circle Training. Having some personal friends already in professional wrestling, she later attended local independent shows in hopes of getting hired full time.

Chung began modeling in February 1997. In 2002, Chung won the "Cover Girl" title from the Vietnamese fashion magazine Thoi Moi in 2002 and appeared on the cover of two other Vietnamese fashion magazines the following year. Chung was also one of 500 models selected to represent ImportFest 2003 in Toronto and was a top ten finalist in the 2004 Miss Viet Canada Pageant. She also starred as an extra in Ashanti's "Rain On Me" music video. [6]

She eventually made her professional debut for wrestler/promoter Scott D'Amore's Border City Wrestling where, in September 2003, she managed ”Franchise” Shane Douglas to win the BCW Can-Am Heavyweight Championship from D-Lo Brown. She would spend the next two years in varior independent promotions in Canada and the United States. [7] At A Night of Appreciation for Sabu, she was in the corner of A-1 when he defeated D-Lo Brown to win the BCW Can-Am Heavyweight Championship in Belleville, Michigan on December 12, 2004. [8] [9]

Ring of Honor

In early-2005, Jade Chung made her debut in Ring of Honor as a valet for manager Prince Nana's stable The Embassy replacing Angel Williams. Although part of one of the top factions in the promotion, Chung was used as a footstool for members of the stable, particularly Jimmy Rave. [10] She was in the corner of Jimmy Rave when he defeated CM Punk in a dog collar match at Manhattan Mayhem on May 31. During the match, she was one of several members of The Embassy to interfere in the match and, at one point, she had entered the ring to apply a sleeper hold on CM Punk. [11] [12]

After Jimmy Rave lost to Roderick Strong on October 1, Jade left The Embassy to become the manager of Generation Next in their feud with The Embassy. The following night, she interfered in a match between Jimmy Rave and Matt Sydal costing him the match. She continued to feud with rival manager Prince Nana and, during a match on October 29, she attacked him with a tilt-a-whirl DDT. On November 5, Ring of Honor announced that Chung had been attacked by an unidentified man in the parking lot. A still photo of Jimmy Rave was shown on November 19 attacking Chung and the promotion claimed that she was no longer involved in wrestling.

The feud was finally concluded at Steel Cage Warfare when she made a surprise appearance during the main event, an 8-man Steel Cage Warfare match between The Embassy (Jimmy Rave, Abyss, Alex Shelley & Prince Nana) vs. Generation Next (Roderick Strong, Austin Aries, Jack Evans & Matt Sydal). Chung, who appeared with bandages as a result of her attack by Jimmy Rave, distracted The Embassy long enough for Jack Evans to enter the match and did a double moonsault off the top off the cage. After Generation Next defeated The Embassy, Chung used Jimmy Rave as her own footstool during the in-ring celebration after the match. [13]

Pro Wrestling Guerrilla

In March 2006, she appeared as the manager of the Human Tornado & Scorpio Sky. She also made an appearance at All Pro Wrestling's Gym Wars, being in the corner of B-Boy in his defeat against MPT, and for Battle Ground Wrestling with Scott Lost loosing a match to Foob Dogg for a lifetime contract with the company. She also managed Joey Ryan in single matches during the same time in PWG. [14]

On October 7, Chung participated in a "First Blood Handicap" match with Scorpio Sky, teaming as the Scorpio Sky Experience, to defeat Frankie Kazarian. A month later, her stable (Scorpio Sky, Chris Bosh, Scott Lost & Joey Ryan) lost an 8-man tag team match against Candice LeRae's team (Frankie Kazarian, Human Tornado, El Generico and Quicksilver). She eventually turned on Scorpio Sky after he lost a "Loser Leaves PWG" match to Frankie Kazarian on January 27, 2007.

At the NWA supercard Bloodlust! 3, she and Kitana Vera defeated Candice LeRae & Carla Jade in a tag team match in Covina, California on November 9. [15]

She continued to appear with Scott Lost & Joey Ryan and was in their corner at the first supercard for Pro Wrestling Guerrilla as they faced Age of the Fall (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) at PWG All Star Weekend 6, Night 1 in Van Nuys, California on January 5, 2008. [16] Injured by Super Dragon in March, she was forced to take a leave of absence and, as a result, Scott Lost & Joey Ryan lost several opportunities to win the PWG Tag Team titles in matches against El Blazer & KAGETORA and Los Luchas (Phoenix Star & Zokre). [17]

    Affinity (2008 film)

    Plot

    Margaret (Anna Madeley of "In Bruges") is in mourning, not only suffering from the recent loss of her father, but also the loss of her lover who has decided to go ahead and marry Margaret’s brother. To keep herself busy, the 19th century socialite begins to volunteer at the nearby women’s prison.

    Once there she becomes intrigued by a prisoner, Selina, who is reclusive and imprisoned for a crime involving her being visited by spirits. Her curiosity registers with prison higher-ups, and soon, that interest turns into infatuation as Margaret digs deeper into Selina’s past. In no time, the two women talking about escaping to Italy so they can be together.

    Director Tim Fywell and writer Andrew Davies are smart with the way they handle the supernatural elements of the movie. Selina’s story is told mostly through flashbacks that give just enough of an idea of what happened, while not giving the full story. Fywell especially is clever when it comes to keeping the flashbacks and the never-fully-seen spirit known as Peter Quick mysterious.

    Where they stumble, though, is the pacing. The beginning of the film drags on to feel almost like our own prison sentence punishment. It is not until the two women’s relationship finally begins to blossom that the adaptation hits its stride. Adding intrigue of the mystery to the already simmering film is trying to figure out what exactly happened that put Selina in jail. The seemingly innocent girl doesn’t seem capable of hurting a fly, so did the spirit of Peter Quick really get her sent away? Being able to strike that equal blend as to be sure not to fall into neither a women in prison film nor a turn of the century spooky film is important.

    As Selina, Zoe Tapper ("Mrs. Palfrey At The Claremont") has the difficult position of trying to get Margaret -- and the audience -- to sympathize with her while still staying mysterious. Tapper is so controlled in her expressions and emotions that she is mesmerizing to watch. The ying to Tapper’s yang is Madeley as Margaret. Madeley has about two expressions and tries to use each even when they don’t exactly fit the emotion that should be conveyed.

    In the final act, the film falls almost completely apart. The twist that comes is one that is definitely not easily guessed, but in having that twist much of the story becomes null and void. Seemingly minute details, like the fact that Selina never had any visitors, suddenly come into question. Much in the same way "The Sixth Sense" made everyone go back and examine the facts, "Affinity" will prompt viewers do the same, except here, the facts won’t be as airtight as Shyamalan’s classic.

    "Affinity" is a film that presents a difficult predicament for audiences. Despite its faults, there is something that makes you want to like the film. But most of it is slow, almost to the point of boring. Once it begins to pick up steam it is hampered by an ending that casts a shadow on everything. All things considered, it might be better to refer to the film as "Aversion."

    Bill Lee, Yacht Designer

    Bill Lee is the designer of many famous ocean racing yachts, and one of the founders of the "Santa Cruz" school of boatbuilding. Several of his designs achieved notoriety in the 1970s, with Chutzpah and Merlin having won the Transpac race from Los Angeles to Honolulu many times. Mr. Lee's designs are noted for having been narrower and much lighter, often 1/2 the weight of competitors at times. His designs helped define the class of boat known as a ULDB, or Ultra Light Displacement Boat, which tend to excel at surfing downwind with spinnakers in heavy breeze. Mr Lee is also known for his boatyard in Santa Cruz, known as the Coop, since it was a chicken coop before Lee and the folks at Santa Cruz yachts turned it into a boatyard.
