Riz Khan - Pragmatic engagement with Myanmar

Riz asks whether diplomatic efforts are failing, and if so, what is the best approach towards Myanmar?
Inside Story - Return to civilian rule?
Ruled by the military for almost five decades, Myanmar holds its first elections in 20 years - elections which have been widely condemned by western countries as neither free nor fair. A return to civilian rule or a missed opportunity?

Hugo Wolf/Eduard Mörike - "Auf eine Christblume"
A reading of the poem "Auf eine Christblume" by Eduard Mörike followed by the song setting of the poem by Hugo Wolf. The Christmas rose has long been a symbol of the yuletide season in German lands, inspiring poems and songs in its honor. Mörikes work ranges from folksong simplicity to the formal sophistication of the classical hexameter. In one of his greatest poems, Auf eine Christblume (On a Christmas Rose), the discovery in a churchyard of the rare, winter-blooming flower occasions a meditation in which time, death, transcendence, Christian and pagan elements, presence and mystery are woven together in a verbal net which is delicate to the point of weightlessness, yet profoundly actual in a way that far removes it from any charge of preciosity. And this is true of all Mörikes finest poetry: that the gentle subtlety of his lyricism is continuous with, not opposed to, or removed from, the grain of living experience. --- Justin Wintle, "Makers of 19th Century Culture" Hugo Wolfs songs are considered by many to represent the pinnacle of song, they are also the least-known works of all the great lieder composers. Because his music is so closely linked to the poetry, his songs require a clear understanding of the German words in order to appreciate how subtly he has translated meanings into musical sound, finding the exact inflection and drama inherent in each word. In the delicate balancing of text and music, it is the text that controls the direction of his music ...

Britney Spears and Justin Timberfake were walking along the beach. Suddenly, Justin says, "Aww, Britney, look at the dead birdie." Britney looks up at the sky and says, "Where?" If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you don't. If you'd like to win but think you can't, It's almost certain you won't. Life's battles don't always go To the stronger or faster man, But sooner or later, the man who wins Is the man who thinks he can. by-Walter D. Wintle Hayden Nickell Slackline Highline
