Immediately, foreign news reporters were banished and the internet was censored. A brave group, calling itself The Democratic Voice of Burma, armed itself with digicams to record demonstrations, give voice to protestors, and to capture evidence of military brutality.<br /><br />That footage, smuggled to Norway via Thailand, is raw and compelling. The story of how it was sneaked out is worthy of the best thrillers. Burma VJ is crucial testament to the will of a suffering people to ensure the world does not forget them. <br /><br />Sukhdev Sandhu, Telegraph.co.uk</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Offical website: <a href="http://www.burmavjmovie.com">http://www.burmavjmovie.com/</a></span>Mark Coughlanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04556656254336549934noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100504647203244046.post-20401666156451504792009-05-10T21:47:00.010+01:002009-05-10T21:58:40.745+01:00Baishaki Mela 2009 - Bangladeshi New Year, London.Firstly, Happy Bangladeshi New Year to everyone!<br />I managed to get a press pass for today's Baishaki Mela in 'Bangla town', just off Brick Lane.<br />In the two hours I was there I managed to take quite a few photos from the main stage.

On the London Marathon website they claim it was "the hottest conditions ever experienced in the 26-year history of the race."<br />I struggled at 16 miles, the heat was just too much. I was easily on target for my aim of a 3:45 finish, but I really had to knock that on the head, drop the pace as I felt I would get into big trouble in the next few miles. Miles 16-20 was tough going, I felt empty, sick and incredibly hot. I ended up coming in at a comfortable pace at 4:15.<br />Very frustrating that after four hard months training that the weather impacted so much as training went really well and I knew I could have done a 3:45.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi25pHsrI2KxIdKWUSbAEpb-Lbs8Hc87Bh9lQUTWOPK4b1flNC37mwCFQl8KvNP5UFkPebyvPZY-KlXUWkK3pipqdzYCGvL9kbBGHZ1J_Yp6xdmSClEWVSTmMRIXjsJPF0qhGNXiCoZfzg/s1600-h/marathon2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 271px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi25pHsrI2KxIdKWUSbAEpb-Lbs8Hc87Bh9lQUTWOPK4b1flNC37mwCFQl8KvNP5UFkPebyvPZY-KlXUWkK3pipqdzYCGvL9kbBGHZ1J_Yp6xdmSClEWVSTmMRIXjsJPF0qhGNXiCoZfzg/s400/marathon2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330186225090989842" /></a>Apparently 750 people failed to finish with 350 taken to hospital.

My ability to sprint is in no doubt following a turbulent 'yoof', running from the Rozzers in the ghetto's of West London.<br /><br />The training has been going better then expected, today was the Sussex Beacon Half Marathon in Brighton and a chance to assess how the preparation is really going.<br />I have a bit of a habit of storming off at the start of races so today I got eye strain looking at my Garmin to ensure I religiously stick to 5 minute kilometres for the entire race.<br /><br />I finish bang on my target of 1 hour, 45 minutes and pretty much a constant pace throughout, though the nasty hills at mile 8 and 11 made the final couple of miles a bit of an effort.

Episode Three<span style="font-weight:bold;">The third episode - Part 3/8 - Africa</span><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Pete Owen Jones continues his year long religious odyssey with a gruelling journey exploring the spiritual traditions of Africa. Pete sets off hoping to get a glimpse of man's first experience of the divine. His journey begins with the ancient practice of Voodoo in Benin, where Pete is confronted by ritual practices that contradict his own deeply held religious convictions. He is forced to decide whether he should even take part.<br /><br />In the continent where all human life began, he travels to Botswana to meet the San Bushmen, inheritors of the earliest religious faith on earth. In South Africa he discovers surprising new developments in religious belief when he meets the members of the 12th Apostolic Church and is stunned to find Afrikaners who believe the world is about to come to an end. In Ethiopia he finds a group of one of the worlds youngest religions - Rastafarians who have set up a Utopian community in this harsh and unforgiving land.</span><br /><br />It is a six-part series is on BBC Two, Tuesday's at 9pm.<br />In case you missed the third episode, you can watch it below, split into ten minute segments for easy viewing.
