Schiavone, Murray survive thrillers in Paris Posted: 31 May 2011 08:15 AM PDT Defending champion Francesca Schiavone pulls back from the brink against Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova to make it through to the semi-finals. — Reuters pic PARIS, May 31 — Women's holder Francesca Schiavone and men's hopeful Andy Murray clawed their way back from the brink to progress at the French Open with gritty performances on a chilly Tuesday at Roland Garros. Both were two points away from defeat but Schiavone reached the semi-finals with a 1-6, 7-5, 7-5 win over Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, and British fourth seed Murray floored Serbian Viktor Troicki 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 7-5 to advance to the last eight against Argentine Juan Ignacio Chela. Schiavone struggled to cope with windy conditions on court Philippe Chatrier as Moscow-based Pavlyuchenkova wore long sleeves and hit long balls to unsettle the Italian fifth seed, who next faces Russian former champion Svetlana Kuznetsova or local favourite Marion Bartoli. It worked perfectly for Pavlyuchenkova, who knocked out world No. 3 Vera Zvonareva in the previous round, and she raced into a 6-1, 4-2 lead. But with her back to the wall at 2-4, 0-40 down in the second set, Schiavone bounced back, grunting as her game gradually fell into place and her opponent's started to unravel as she won six games in a row. Pavlyuchenkova broke back for 5-5, only for Schiavone to steal her serve again and end the contest with a backhand winner. "I did not play good, I hope I will play better in the semi-final because this crowd deserve to see good tennis," Schiavone, who put some clay on her face after the match point, told a courtside interviewer. Twisted ankle Murray, who twisted his ankle in the previous round, is not the kind to give up easily despite his seemingly nonchalant attitude, as he showed in a thrilling match against Troicki. The Briton, yet to win a grand slam title, fell 5-0 behind yesterday in just 18 minutes as he looked in pain and on the brink of pulling out before fighting back to level at two sets all. The match resumed today with an unusual incident. A ball boy inexplicably ran on to the court in front of Troicki during a rally as the Serb moved to the net for a smash in the sixth game. Because of "movement during the exchange", umpire Pascal Maria had the point replayed as Troicki boiled over, but the Serb broke for 4-2. He came within two points of victory when he led 5-3, 30-0 on his serve but made a string of unforced errors to let Murray back into the contest. The 24-year-old Scot wasted three match points but a gravity-defying crosscourt backhand passing winner sent him through after almost four hours, with a possible semi-final clash against world No. 1 Rafael Nadal or Swede Robin Soderling looming. World No. 3 Roger Federer will play local favourite Gael Monfils on court Philippe Chatrier later as he looks to set up a last-four meeting with Novak Djokovic after the Serbian world No. 2 was given a walk-over against the injured Fabio Fognini. — Reuters Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price.

Murray battles past Troicki in rolled-over match Posted: 31 May 2011 08:01 AM PDT Relief for Andy Murray after winning his tight five-set match against Viktor Troicki to advance to the quarter-finals. — Reuters pic PARIS, May 31 — Fourth seed Andy Murray battled into the French Open quarter-finals by beating Viktor Troicki 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 7-5 today after they returned to court for a one-set shootout. Play was suspended late yesterday due to bad light after Murray, carrying an ankle injury, had fought back superbly to level the match at two sets all. Troicki was angered at the start of the sixth game of the last set when a ball boy inexplicably ran on to the court right in front of the Serb as he was winning the point with a smash. The umpire ordered them to replay the point, which Murray won, leading to more rage from Troicki and boos from a crowd sympathetic to the blushing boy. In the end it did not matter as Troicki went on to break the Briton in the same game but the 15th seed lost his serve twice, sending a backhand into the net on the key point as Murray sealed a last-eight clash with Juan Ignacio Chela. — Reuters Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price.

Taking the workout to the back of the body Posted: 31 May 2011 12:38 AM PDT The lunge stretch, from the book "Foundation: Redefine Your Core, Conquer Back Pain, and Move with Confidence" is demonstrated in this undated file photo. — Reuters pic NEW YORK, May 31 — Crunches, curls and sit-ups may be standard workout fare in gyms, basements and living rooms across the land. But the authors of a new book suggest people get plenty of that movement in their daily lives. They say to get a really strong midsection the back of the body needs to be worked. "Sitting at desks, working on computers, waiting in traffic, we are continually contracting our abs, throwing our shoulders forward and, ultimately, shutting down the back of the body, said Dr. Eric Goodman, co-author with Peter Park of "Foundation: Redefine Your Core, Conquer Back Pain, and Move with Confidence." "If we're going to keep our posture and our spines strong, it has to be done by exercising the back of the body as the core of the body," explained Goodman, a chiropractor based in Santa Barbara, California. The exercises illustrated in the book require no machines or equipment and take the spine as the body's center of stability. In the signature, or founder exercise, knees are bent over ankles, the body hinges from the hip joint, and movement originates in the pelvis, hips and hip joints. "You're sticking your butt out on everything," explained Park, a trainer and owner of Platinum Fitness gyms, said. "We're aiming for the posterior chain." Park is cycling great Lance Armstrong's strength and conditioning coach. The seven-time Tour de France winner wrote the forward for the book. "Lance needed it more than anybody," Park said of the workout. "It opened him up. (With his) rounded back, rounded shoulders he almost looked funny off the bike." The exercises are designed to augment, rather than replace, a regular fitness regime, Goodman said. "We don't want people to stop doing yoga or Pilates. If you're currently doing cardio or other training just add foundation to it," Goodman said. "If you're doing it properly, 20 minutes is plenty. It's hard." Neal Pire, spokesperson for the American College of Sports Medicine, said the concept of "hinging" or loading the posterior chain while maintaining neutral spine is mainstream, but he's never seen a book entirely devoted to it. "Extension is key, because we do indeed live in a flexed state," he said, adding that if the public perception is that abs are the core, the public is mistaken. "The core involves two sets of muscles: deep muscles whose roles are primarily stabilising the spine, or more generally the trunk, and shallower muscles whose primary role is movement," Pire explained. Goodman advocates a four-to-one ratio of back-to-front training. "For every four exercises you do for the back of the body, you get to do one for the front. I think that's the opposite of what most people are doing." Park said too many workouts reinforce sedentary postures. "You see a guy who is sedentary all day go to the gym, do bench presses and ride on a bike. He's reinforcing what he did all day," said Park. "We're trying to bring everyone back to the center, where they should be. I think this is the missing link." — Reuters Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price.

Bathhouse of Sultan’s favourite reopens in Istanbul Posted: 30 May 2011 09:45 PM PDT Feel like a Sultan at the Roxelana Hamam ISTANBUL, May 31 — For decades the 16th century bath house built for the Ottoman Empire's most infamous woman, Roxelana, languished unnoticed between the Blue Mosque and the Haghia Sophia, relegated to life as a carpet showroom. Ottoman bath houses, structures once so important they were designed by the finest architects of the realm, fell out of favour as Turkey modernised and its citizens installed running water and bathrooms in their homes. Yet the architectural pedigree of many of the bath houses, the rising number of foreign tourists, and a resurgent interest among Turks in all things Ottoman, have revived the fortunes of the old stone hamams as developers recognise their huge earning potential. The waiting hall at Roxelana's hamam. — Reuters pic Roxelana's hamam, a long, domed building completed in 1557 by the prolific architect Sinan, is the latest Istanbul bath to be restored to its former grandeur — emerging after years of neglect as an oasis of gleaming marble and inviting alcoves. "Turkey is learning to place more importance on its past," said architect Tevfik Ilter, who led the 17 million lira project. "In the last 15 years we started to restore our buildings. Before that the focus was on constructing things fast. If a structure was broken we'd just try and fix it with concrete." In 2007 Istanbul authorities decided to return the hamam to its original use after a 105-year hiatus and launched a tender for its restoration, won by a tourism development group. The bath will open in June and charge €86 (RM372) for the customary steam bath, peeling and soap massage. The same service in one of the handful of old local hamams still in operation in Istanbul would cost around €15. Visitors to the separate men's and women's sections of the bath enter a soaring domed chamber the size of a small mosque, with tiers of wooden changing rooms circling the walls. After donning a cotton wrap known as a pestemal and slippers they enter the steamy, white marble bath. Once the moisture has penetrated their skin, an attendant scrubs the body to remove the dead skin cells, before dousing the visitor in water. "It is not just about bathing. It is a purification process, a ritual process," Ilter said. The soap massage: more than a bath; it's a purification process, a ritual. — Reuters pic Hamams are a tradition common to most Muslim countries as Islam emphasises cleanliness and washing, particularly before prayer. But besides their original religious function they were also a place for people to relax and mingle. Scheming Roxelana While Istanbul now offers four or five historic luxury hamams to chose from, the figure of Roxelana, long a subject of Western orientalist fantasy could prove a paticular draw. Born into a Ukrainian family as Aleksandra Lisowska some time around 1500 she was captured by raiding Crimean Tartars and sold as a slave in Constantinople, where she was selected for the harem. Through her charm and guile she managed to catch the eye of Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent, displacing his former favourite and eventually becoming his wife. The bath's reopening coincides with a screening of a television drama based on the life of Roxelana, which has captivated Turkish audiences, but also drew complaints for its sexual content and liberty with the truth. Its glamorous costumes, sumptuous interiors, and the endless conniving and plotting among the women of the harem have fed the resurgent local interest in the Ottoman Empire, from which modern Turkey was formed in 1923. History has not viewed Roxelana kindly, portraying her as a meddlesome schemer. Her son Selim, inherited the empire from his father but proved a disastrous ruler and an alcoholic. Selim is said to have died in 1574 after slipping and banging his head in a hammam while drunk. "We don't know for sure whether Roxelana ever came to her hamam. She died in 1558 and the bath was finished in 1557," said Ilter. "Some people think the Sultan built it for her so bathers would pray for her in her ill health. Either way the location of the hamam, right opposite the Haghia Sophia in a central position shows her power and influence." Old Istanbul is littered with the ruins of old hamams, most of which are beyond saving. But other restorations are already in the works, particularly of structures built by Sinan. "History used to be about war and about being a hero. Now we are learning about the history of architecture, leisure and social life," Ilter said. — Reuters Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price.

Piaf biography invites new look at French icon Posted: 30 May 2011 09:23 PM PDT Burke's book is among the first to draw on more than 100 letters written by a young Piaf to one of her mentors. — AFP/Relaxnews pic SYDNEY, May 31 — A new book about legendary French singer Edith Piaf reveals much about her life before stardom, including her yearnings for poetry and philosophy as a young girl working to overcome her tough upbringing. Writer Carolyn Burke said her biography "No Regrets — The Life of Edith Piaf" delves deeply into the early life of the "Little Sparrow", and invites a reassessment of one of the most famous singers of the 20th century. "We get the young Piaf that we didn't necessarily know about even if we heard her sing," Australian-born Burke told AFP at the Sydney Writers' Festival this month. Burke's book is among the first to draw on more than 100 letters written by a young Piaf to one of her mentors, the scholarly Jacques Bourgeat, held in the Bibliotheque Nationale de France and only recently released to scrutiny. "Those letters reveal aspects of Edith Piaf that we couldn't have known about," Burke explained. "You see her desire for an education, to better herself. We learn about her emotional and spiritual development even, because she had a strong wish ... to not only study poetry but philosophy." Burke said the letters reveal a tenderness between Piaf and the middle-aged, poetry-writing Bourgeat who instructed the young woman with scant education after a hand-to-mouth existence on what to read and how to improve her French. "So the next thing she's reading Baudelaire, she's reading Rimbaud, she's reading Plato. It's so moving to find out about this," she explained. "I was sitting there reading Edith Piaf's handwriting, seeing her mistakes in spelling and grammar and she says things to him like, 'I'm making progress aren't I? Is this a better letter?' He's trying to help her learn proper French. It's so important to know that." The unlikely pair, who were not lovers, corresponded for the next 25 years and Burke believes the letters provide "the very best source for a deeper look at who she was and how she developed." Piaf began writing lyrics shortly after meeting Bourgeat at a Paris nightclub, and Burke believes it was in part with his help that she acquired enough confidence and experience with the language to become a lyricist. "As a woman who had no education, no background, nothing ... her family wasn't even working class, they were the lowest of the low ... how she managed to do what she did with such generosity to others ... it's fascinating to me." Almost 50 years after her death, aged 47, Piaf remains a formidable cultural influence — inspiring singers as diverse as Martha Wainwright and Lady Gaga — and has a devoted fan following around the world. Burke's research led her to some of these fans, the collectors of Piaf items such as one of her signature black dresses, old recorded versions of her songs and home movies taken by members of her entourage. She understands their passion, having been struck by the beauty of the language and power of Piaf's voice when she first heard her sing on the radio as a student in Paris. The result is a biography which has been criticised as too kind to Piaf — known for her many lovers, her associations with the gangster class, and her reliance on painkillers in later years. Burke said her book was no "whitewash" but it was time for a kinder judgement on the woman who held listeners spellbound with the haunting voice she carried within her diminutive frame. "The problem is people have lots of stereotypes in their minds about who entertainers are and in particular Piaf. People think, 'Oh, we know who that was — poor self-destructive waif'," she said. "And my book goes completely in another direction which shows how creative she was and how much she shaped her own repertoire and legend. So I am offering a different look at her life." Burke draws on Piaf's experiences in World War II, how she helped shelter Jewish friends, assisted in a daring prisoner escape plan and sang songs written by Jewish writers contrary to German orders. At times her life reads as invention — her father was a travelling contortionist, her mother a singer who left her as a toddler and became a drug addict, and her early childhood included time living in her father's family's brothel. Burke said that much written about Piaf is exaggerated or even malicious. "For instance the business with the drugs, those were all prescription drugs that she took to manage her horrible chronic pain," she said. "The pain that resulted from several car accidents. What she took was prescribed by doctors so that she could go on singing." Burke wants to remind the world, and France, that Piaf was an entertainer who displayed enormous creativity, courage and resilience despite her difficulties and personal sorrows. "I mention that she was tyrannical and that she made her entourage do things exactly the way she wanted. They had to eat the same meal every night for a week if that's what she wanted. And they had to get up at 4am if she rang. "But it's true that I wanted to take a different perspective to show her rather admirable traits I think because they have been underplayed. "There may be time for a new look at Piaf in France. And wouldn't that be good if an Australian could do it?" — AFP/Relaxnews Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price.

Kennedy’s ‘Dr. Feelgood’ Posted: 27 May 2011 03:33 AM PDT Kennedy's 'Dr. Feelgood' The book reveals that President John F. Kennedy turned to Max Jacobson, or "Dr. Feelgood", for unconventional treatments during his trip to Europe in June 1961. — www.acus.org pic PARIS, May 27 — Historians haven't done well over the years in answering an awkward question: when do the personal quirks and unusual habits of American presidents have historic consequences? Tabloid reporters salivate over salacious stories such as Monica Lewinsky's affair with President Bill Clinton, but when do these become matters of state? My book "Berlin 1961" steered away from the most sensational accounts and speculations regarding President John F. Kennedy's womanising and health problems. However, I did want to know whether any of these had substantive impact that such a book should record. The time when that seemed most likely was in June 1961 during President Kennedy's trip to Europe to see Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev. What concerned me the most were the secret, excessive and perhaps irresponsible ministrations of a physician named Max Jacobson — better known as "Dr. Feelgood" by celebrity patients such as Tennessee Williams and Truman Capote — which were laced with amphetamines. For all the adoring French crowds, grand Gallic meals, and media hype generated by a thousand correspondents covering his first stop in Europe to see French leader Charles de Gaulle in Paris, President Kennedy's favourite moments were spent submerged in a giant, gold-plated bathtub in the "King's Chamber" of a nineteenth-century palace on the Quai d'Orsay. Behind all that the French theatre — and ahead of the President's next stop in Vienna with Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev — lay a US president who was entering the most important week of his presidency as a weary and wounded commander in chief. He was inadequately prepared and insufficiently fit for what would face him in Vienna. Khrushchev would be scanning for Kennedy's vulnerabilities after the Bay of Pigs, and there were plenty. At home, Kennedy was facing violent racial confrontations that had broken out in the American South as African Americans grew more determined to end two centuries of oppression. The immediate problem revolved around the "Freedom Riders," whose efforts to desegregate interstate transportation had won only tepid support from President Kennedy — and were opposed by nearly two-third of Americans. Abroad, Kennedy's failure in Cuba, unresolved conflict in Laos, and tensions building around Berlin made his Paris-Vienna trip all the more fraught with risk. It seemed just another of his presidency's early misfortunes that Kennedy had seriously reinjured his back muscles while planting a ceremonial tree in Ottawa, and the pain had grown worse on the long flight to Europe. It had been the first time since his spinal fusion surgery in 1954 that he was hobbling around on crutches — though only in private. Kennedy's personal physician, Janet Travell, who accompanied him in Paris, was concerned about his heightened suffering and the impact his treatments might have on everything from mood to endurance during the trip. Years later, Travell would recall that Paris was the beginning of "a very hard period." She would give Kennedy two to three shots a day of procaine, a potent cousin of Novocain. She was also treating him for chronic adrenal ailments, high fevers, elevated cholesterol levels, sleeplessness, and stomach, colon and prostate problems. Travel kept an ongoing "Medicine Administration Record" to track the cocktail of pills and shots she provided Kennedy. What she couldn't log, however, were the more unconventional administrations of Max Jacobson, or "Dr. Feelgood," who had travelled more secretly to Paris and Vienna. Kennedy had been so pleased with Jacobson's remedies during his campaign that he recommended them as well for his wife Jacqueline after the difficult November delivery of their son John-John – and again to boost her stamina before the Paris trip. It would later be discovered that his injections contained hormones, animal organ cells, steroids, vitamins, enzymes and – most troubling – the amphetamines to combat fatigue and depression. The potential national security consequences of this concoction were considerable coming just before his crucial meeting with Khrushchev. The potential side effects included hyperactivity, hypertension, impaired judgment and nervousness. Between doses, his moods could swing from overconfidence to bouts of depression. History would never record how this medication influenced President Kennedy's performance in Vienna. Though by Kennedy's own later account, he was about to confront two of the worst days of his life – days that he feared might convince Khrushchev of his weakness and prompt him to test US resolve in Berlin in a manner that could lead to war.
