Using female condon training
It is an interesting training in such an ancient country where people believe that talking about sex in front of people is against the Burmese culture.

Myanmar monks lead the protest in Burma Yangon
DEMONSTRATIONS led by Buddhist monks in military-ruled Myanmar (formerly Burma) gathered force over the weekend and, on Monday September 24th, the biggest protest yet seen was staged in the main city, Yangon. Up to 100,000 people took part, among them perhaps 20,000 red- and orange-robed monks. The website of Irrawaddy, a newspaper run by Burmese exiles from Thailand, reported an equally huge monk-led protest on Monday in the western town of Sittwe.
At first, the monks limited themselves to chanting prayers and sermons, and urged the Burmese public not to join their marches. But over the weekend, a hitherto unknown group, the All Burma Monks’ Alliance, urged people to “struggle peacefully against the evil military dictatorship” until its downfall. Monday’s march was joined by some of the country’s best-known actors and musicians, as well as leaders of the opposition National League of Democracy (NLD) and crowds of ordinary Burmese. It has become the biggest challenge Myanmar’s brutal regime has faced since the uprising of 1988, which it crushed with extreme violence. The question is: how will it respond this time? Later on Monday, state-run media quoted the government as threatening the monks with unspecified action "according to the law" if their protests did not stop.
The protests began last month, when the government suddenly imposed drastic rises in fuel prices, making life even more unbearable for Myanmar’s impoverished people. The regime arrested many protest leaders and sent in plain-clothes goon squads to attack the demonstrators. It looked like the protests might fizzle until, earlier this month, soldiers fired over the heads of a group of monks demonstrating in the central town of Pakkoku. Some reports said monks were also beaten and arrested. After the regime ignored the clergy’s demands for an apology, monks took to the streets in several main cities. They have now, in effect, excommunicated the military and their families by refusing to accept alms from them—a serious matter in this devoutly Buddhist country.
So far the regime has seemed unsure how to react. Early last week it fired warning shots and tear-gas canisters at a monks’ protest in Sittwe but since then it has taken no action against the demonstrations. For two days it barred monks from the golden Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, the country’s holiest shrine. But since Thursday it has allowed them back into the shrine, which has become the focal point for the protest movement. On Saturday, police let thousands of monks and laymen pray outside the home of Aung San Suu Kyi, the leader of the NLD and icon of Myanmar’s struggle for democracy. Though Miss Suu Kyi is under house arrest, she was able to walk to her gate and greet the protesters. But by Sunday, the police were once again barring access to the street where she lives.
Besides their strength in numbers—there are 400,000 of them—the monks have considerable influence. They are the one group that the military regime might hesitate to confront. Even so, another 1988-style bloody crackdown cannot be ruled out. The question that the generals will be asking themselves is how the rest of the world would react. Though the regime has for decades brushed aside Western sanctions and resisted all pressure to reform, some things have changed since 1988.
One is that Myanmar has been admitted to the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN). The other ASEAN members argued that “constructive engagement” with Myanmar would achieve more than sanctions. This has proved a sham because they failed to apply enough pressure on its regime. But there is at least some hope that they may now discourage the regime from massacring the protesters, if only to spare themselves the embarrassment of sitting alongside generals with fresh blood on their hands as they celebrate ASEAN’s 40th anniversary later this year.

Burlywood gossip popular in Rangoon
Mizzima News (www.mizzima.com)
December 03, 2007 - Despite palpable tension in Burma following the bloody crackdown on monks and protesters, life goes on. Peer activity, especially among the youth relates to passing audio files of two popular actresses gossiping over the telephone about the sex lives of other film personalities in Rangoon.
Nan Dar Hlaing and Myo Myo Khaing were taped talking on the telephone about the affair a movie director was having with an actress and about sex video clips of two women models that are in circulation. However, there are lots of people who feel that the video clips are fake.
The audio file of the two actresses gossiping has been on the internet since last month.
Myo Myo Khaing was forced to apologize to the director, actors and actress for her gossiping and had to say that what she had said was false but Nan Dar Hlaing has been quite about the whole thing.
Director Kyaw Zaw Linn, one of those in the gossip list has said that he will not work for the rest of his career with any actors or actresses who have been gossiping.

Boutique owner and a photographer falling through the middle section of the runway floor
March 27,2008 charleston
This is the first year in Charleston Fashion Week for the recently opened boutique K.Morgan and the crowd burst into applause at the fresh new looks.
When the owner herself stepped onstage to take a bow, the applause swelled with appreciation when all of a sudden the woman took a misstep and plunged through the middle section of the runway floor.
Photographers stormed toward her, when one of them also tripped and fell into the hole.
No one popped up to show they were okay, rather the poor lady crawled the length of the runway on the ground to the safety of backstage.
Eventually K. Morgan came back on stage for a victory walk. Luckily no one was hurt and it was all a fluke deal.
Apparently all the models and store owners did a dress rehearsal walk the day before, but Ms. Morgan had missed the practice run.
What she didn’t know was the middle of the floor was actually just sheer fabric to allow light from below and only the periphery was actually runway.
