The Guardian has published an extract from a statement on Matthieu Kassovitz’s website. Kassovitz is the acclaimed director of La Haine and in his statement he discusses the recent unrest in France. It is a heartfelt piece, appealling for dialogue and understanding between the government and the rioters. “Zero Tolence works both ways” he says, without “raprochement” the unrest will continue. It seems that France has to ask itself some difficult questions about the nature of integration and racial diversity. More information here about Kassovitz and more at The Guardian.

First snows in Sakhaline
This means its going to be very cold for JLC, and we’re looking forward to him coming home. I hear he’s been watching lots of DVD’s. The bears are back in hibernation, so hopefully they won’t be roaming the land looking to cause trouble.
News from Sakhalinsk
JLC sent me this photo of a bear print on the pipeline. I’ll put some more photos up, so that you can get idea of how cold it is. He’s back for a few weeks of sunshine and heat and we’ll be over to catch up soon.
