Phones, computers seized in Jackson doctor raid

Posted by on July 28, 2009

.Police and federal agents have swooped on the Las Vegas home of Michael Jackson’s personal doctor as speculation mounts that the physician will face possible manslaughter charges.
Officers from the Drug Enforcement Administration and Los Angeles Police Department seized mobile phones and a computer after combing through Doctor Conrad Murray’s gated resort home and downtown Las Vegas office.
A statement released by Dr Murray’s legal team said officers had executed two search warrants on Tuesday (local time) seeking Jackson’s medical records.
Tuesday’s search followed a similar raid last week on Dr Murray’s practice in Houston, Texas, where a warrant revealed for the first time that agents were seeking evidence of manslaughter in connection with the doctor.
“The search warrant authorised investigators to look for medical records relating to Michael Jackson and all of his reported aliases,” the statement said, adding that Dr Murray was present during the search and assisted officers.
CNN reported on Monday that Dr Murray, 51, gave Jackson a lethal dose of the potent anaesthetic Propofol on the night before his death.
Dr Murray has emerged as the central figure in the mystery surrounding Jackson’s sudden death on June 25 at the age of 50 at his rented chateau-like home in Los Angeles.
Propofol is used in hospitals to induce unconsciousness in patients ahead of major surgery.
The possibility that Dr Murray gave Jackson the drug intravenously has fuelled speculation he may face manslaughter charges.
Experts say the drug should only be administered by a trained anesthesiologist under strict monitoring conditions.
Attorney Ed Chernoff said firm conclusions could only be drawn once the results of toxicology tests from Jackson’s autopsy were known.
Dr Murray’s lawyers, who have repeatedly insisted he is innocent of wrongdoing, issued a statement on Monday (local time) urging calm amid the flurry of reports suggesting the physician faced a criminal prosecution.. …com, meanwhile, is reporting that Dr Murray told police in an interview on June 27 that he gave Jackson Propofol via an intravenous drip.”
TMZ.
The Los Angeles coroner’s office has said results of tests carried out on Jackson’s body will be revealed by the end of the week.
According to the website, police believe Dr Murray may have fallen asleep while the drug was being administered and awoke to find the singer already dead.

Wuthering Heights gets Bollywood treatment

Posted by on April 29, 2009

.The classic British novel Wuthering Heights has been moved from the windswept moors of Yorkshire to the searing heat of India in a Bollywood-style production hitting the London stage this week.
British TV actor Deepak Verma has given Emily Bronte’s tale a drastic makeover, tapping into the fast-rising profile of Bollywood which is attracting a wider audience thanks to the Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire.
The director of the play, Kristine Landon-Smith, is half-Indian and half-Australian.
In the production at the Lyric Hammersmith theatre in west London, the novel’s main character – the brooding Heathcliff – has been renamed Krishnan and his search for love is played out against a dazzling swirl of colour.
“One of the biggest challenges is making a new musical.
She says the biggest hurdle she faced was taking the original story of love and heartbreak in the 18th century and setting it to music. . We haven’t just put Wuthering Heights into an Indian setting, we’ve made it into a musical and therein lies a huge challenge,” she told AFP.”
Verma, a former star of popular British soap opera Eastenders, says Wuthering Heights was “just perfect” for adaptation.
“At that time in India there was a real hierarchy and a class system and all that sat very well with the social context of the novel.
“What interested me is the ghostly, haunting aspect of the book.
“There are so many things about it that just fitted in with aspects of Indian culture,” he said.”
The play has been produced by the Tamasha theatre company.
“The Victorian values in the novel are also found in Indian society and the desert is a harsh place, just like the moors of Yorkshire.

Brit crit’s sour grapes

Posted by on April 28, 2009

.
MOOCHING, at its most basic, is passing time wandering around
with no particular purpose or destination. Suffice to say I give
good mooch, and my first day of mooching around Sydney saw me have
breakfast at Bill’s.
Uberchef Bill Granger is what I would call “the acceptable face
of modern Australian cooking”: blond, blue-eyed and perma-grinned,
he sums up every thing Australia wants its cooking to stand for in
the pantheon of cuisines – simple ingredients of high quality – and
he succeeds. Just the fuel for my day and a long
walk around Sydney, luxuriating in the autumn weather. Certainly he did so with a breakfast of scrambled eggs
run through with a creamy, home-made ricotta and served on a slice
of crunchy sourdough toast. As the genre has
developed, they have tried to finesse things a bit with new and
unusual fillings but the truth is that the traditional Australian
meat pie, in its unadulterated form, is a thing to be
treasured.
Everywhere in Australia pies are available.
In Sydney there can be only one choice: Harry’s Cafe de Wheels. It really was a lovely
thing.
Sometimes a pie can be “all filler, no killer”, but this pie was a
perfect example of the art, packed with thick chunks of meat in a
rich gravy topped with good, flaky pastry. For $300 you get to
experience a meal that justifies its position in the pantheon of
fine dining.
I needed to sleep it off for what I anticipated would be one of
my Sydney highlights: the umpteen-course tasting menu at the
eponymous restaurant of Tetsuya Wakuda.
This was one of those memorable dishes, not just for me but
obviously for the whole restaurant, as table after table went from
noisy chitter-chatter to complete silence as each diner lifted
their first bite to their mouth. It is far from flawless – in a meal of that many
courses you are bound to get dishes that misfire – but it would
have been worth the money for one dish alone: Tetsuya’s signature
dish of ocean trout confit in local olive oil and served with
daikon and baby fennel. It ranks as one of the great
tastes of my life: I wanted to ask for a scalpel so I could slice
the fish so thinly it would last forever. It ranks as one of the great
tastes of my life: I wanted to ask for a scalpel so I could slice
the fish so thinly it would last forever. An organised trip
seemed to be the option. But it would have been churlish of me not to give
Australian wines a chance now I was in striking distance of where
some of the better ones were supposed to be made.
The tour itself was harmless enough. I am not quite sure what I was expecting
[of the coach trip to the Hunter Valley] but what I got was a
little different. But therein lies the problem. There was a passable lunch
thrown in and I got to sample enough wines to give even my
jaundiced liver a bit of a buzz. By 4pm I had tasted
enough over-oaked chardonnay and figgy semillon to last any number
of lifetimes and if one more person had offered me a “fruity red”,
my trip would have ended in ignominy there and then as I drowned
them in a barrel of reprehensible 15 per cent alcohol slop. The
wines were just not any good – awful, in fact.
Australia’s Asian community has had an enormous impact on the
country, not least on its food. What
can I tell you? I still think Australian wines are lousy. Many of these places are to
be found in food courts, another of Sydney’s treasures. Many of these places are to
be found in food courts, another of Sydney’s treasures. I met food
blogger Helen Yee for lunch in Sydney’s impressive Chinatown and
she introduced me to bahn mi, the crunchy and delicious Vietnamese
sandwich, and as we ate she pointed me in the direction of many
other places I should try: restaurants specialising in food from
Xi’an province at the beginning of the Silk Road and Cantonese
places serving traditional roast meats. I returned more than once
to my own favourite, B.B.Q. King, for a portion of their crispy
pork.
Outside the enviable array of Asian food I found Sydney’s dining
scene to be vibrant but small. The top restaurants in Sydney do not
disappoint. But in the mid-range, while there is consistency and
talent, there is too little originality to suggest a city close to
finding its own culinary identity.
Where I expected Sydney to be good, it excelled. There are, as
they like to keep reminding you, few more pretty cities on Earth.
Now all they need is someone to teach them how to make wine, create
their own cuisine and to stop trying to convince the rest of the
world that Sydney matters and I might head back there.

The Best Food In The World by Simon Majumdar (Hachette
