we don't always. hear but do you think common sense takes over a little bit ok we don't know. but our moon think we would know. because. so it seems like some people are listening to what's being said and i thinking for themselves let's just something catch the much more subtle inaccuracy parted with by the media every day. in the us an increasing number of people are struggling to make ends meet supporting their own needs or for that matter an entire family is proving to be a growing challenge and as our time is more important i reports those who can't get food stamps are looking down every avenue for nourishment. the number of people on food stamps has reached an all time high more and more people are going hungry and

one in three americans live in or near poverty and suffering hunger in this land of plenty. in this land of plenty roughly two point seven million tons of food is reportedly raised and grown each year the same country that loves so much to consume calories. also loves to waste that. this isn't like a geo and although it is a dumpster diver instead of paying for food he wrote through garbage bags on the streets of new york city and there. were tons of edible food is thrown out each night i never honestly thought of the people here this is a reason reason to go the twenty seven year old musician makes his way from the bakery to the jelly there's hot food here would only come from a hot food bar relying on supermarket trash for his essential vitamins even without

opening the bag i can see that there's an orange out for. carson and some other greens we and those crowding around g.o.c. is that in a country where more than forty million people struggle daily to get enough food millions of meals are literally being wasted because this food as you can see is still perfectly edible and there's no sense that it should be wasted and thrown away. otherwise it would end up. on top of the landfill somewhere and has to be the thirty to fifty percent of u.s. food produced for consumption ends up at landfills each year that comes at an annual cost of one billion dollars simultaneously food prices continue to rise leaving millions more on line at soup kitchens and ultimately searching through trash the big show or the documentary die follows filmmaker jeremy seifert and his friends in the back alleys and rubbish piles of los angeles as thousands of dollars

worth of edible food is salvaged it's a result of our excess we are a wealthy country and we have excess and so we is. really necessarily a byproduct of excess and it's a bad habit of sort of the spoiled rich kid as it were i mean america's expanding climate of food waste critics say the country's overall carelessness causes ripple effects around the world it is a global market and our overconsumption directly impacts the hungry and poor in other countries us taking more than we need and wasting it affects the prices of food affects the ability of food so yeah i guess it was right to me because there was a sense of outrage just as food waste something of

story when both supporters and opponents of the demolition gathered on the square. that reporters wanted to present was an objective story by filming both sides but they stood no chance. of blame clothes police men came up to us and told us not to film anything where they prevented us from performing our professional activities they attacked me and my cameraman we were detained and our camera was confiscated. after the square was cleared of demonstrators opposing the demolition the camera was handed back to the journalists and released from the police station . we were able to film this part but when they gave the camera back to us something was missing they had to leave it the footage of the rally against the monuments demolition. the only part left was of these pro-government activists

applauding that it was never john doe interest police motive to make trial at a t.v. an opposition media but for several years now government officials have steered clear of his talk show. we make no distinction between the two sides we invite both of them to go on air but the fact is that the opposition comes here and the government keeps away but it's why the government claims that we're in opposition channel but that's not true local officials turn down or imitations because they've been told by higher ups not to give interviews to our journalists or appear on our programs. or journalists from this regional t.v. company about even from the building housing the local administration they are denied interviews and accreditation to important events. despite all the problems the t.v. company is still in operation with news bulletins going out daily. the arrival of

the political scene has thrown georgia's authorities into total confusion. millionaire did seen a vanish billy has invested a great deal of money in the georgian economy but soon after he announced his intention to stand in the next presidential election the country's government stripped him of his citizenship the following is an excerpt from national news first formal press conference held on november the first twenty eleven. he really now the need for the people to regain a lost sense of justice is of crucial importance now how do what even sack us release inner circle is stricken with terror there is no trace of self-government everything is in the hands of one man it's not easy. incidentally there was actually a time when those young people who are now in the government were in the pay of ivanishvili but essentially he funded the state machinery he has built theatres

among many other things. seventy year old artist taymor as good sad as it has been great expectations only vanish really he also has a serious burn to pick with the present day or forty's taking rounds was unceremoniously fired from the academy of fine arts after a professional period lasting many years. i spoke out against the regime in public i gave interviews i didn't keep silent. they summon the chancellor and this is what he said to me afterwards but you don't let us live this is because i was there. i may have decided that giving me the sack was the easiest way of resolving the problem. tamer has lost his job but not his workshop so he began to devote more time to painting however there's hardly

a place in today's georgia where he can show his paintings to the public georgia is not a wealthy country and there just isn't enough money to support. museums can barely make ends meet. do your campaign seek to create the impression that all is well in the country. do you know what kind of a nation is in the making. a handful of people or well all of well everyone else lives to ensure that launch has a cushy existence. three. as his wife marina is an actress she's employed additional time most of you only see her well robert stewart was artistic director for decades. this is one of the latest newspapers roberts truro writes in an article that we've seen a ivanishvili will emerge victorious team or as an i.r.

oppositionists he writes that unless saakashvili leaves his post of his own free will he will face the same fate as colonel qadhafi and i write that between ivanishvili took his stance in the right place at the right time. when george's ministry of culture fired robert stuart arena and her fellow actors of the theater took to the streets about five thousand people turned out to express support for their favorite director. of all the traffic in the afternoon in front of the playhouse with brought to a halt. we met face to face with the spectators who had adored roberts throughout all this time the actors were wearing such t. shirts as these are these words i mean i'm fired i like the expression on his face he seems to be saying i'm fired so what after all his work lives on.

the ministry of culture is officially excuse for his sacking xenophobia. still ahead ask cyprus really why he made a secret of his army. to work. with the man who keeps his father's nationality or secret of some of the wealth so the big question is who is more xena fardy were. the president and supposed to hide anything. and were someone asking him why did you make a secret of it. during a theatre festival in germany german september twentieth eleven members of the

international association of theatre critics interviewed about the story for an hour asking him about the details the conclusion about his misfortune was made in an open letter in support of rudd stood. at another from the theatre at the proctor for freedom of expression we have been duped it is by the way that mr threw out from his post by the georgian government like so many people around the back we feared that the government had knew with certain statements attributed to the us as a pretext to put punish a critical voice from within that if the community. could leave the protests the letters by the states actors nor a direct appeal by international organizations could make the georgian government budge satisfyingly never forgave the director he saw as undesirable.

in the system or i think it was a very good way to end more involvement with the theatre. it's here it's a pickle for the theatre it's a cheeky artistic director out of the tradition stands with him and now it's my turn to be kicked out and i'm glad that i was kicked out by the government not by the actors dead would have been a real catastrophe for me. today robert stewart a works abroad and he had plans to stage shakespeare's tempest in moscow's etc theatre six months before he was exiled. bottom of the problem too are but this is the problem and man expelled from his home together with his daughter of you for being driven out of hugh senses of flu. viruses but after. many reviewers thinks do it his production is actually about

himself prosperous the play's main character is an avid reader scholar and artist but you give him a lan expels him from his home town because he fears the prosper will strip him of power. and there's even to cry to deceive the brewer to us to son i to the winds whose pity sighing back again did us proud loving wrong. steward a hopes he'll be allowed to stage productions in georgia. but this is impossible for the time being. george's best theaters are run by the government the ministry of culture has no intention of funding stewardess productions. i won't give up so easily i will survive this trial.

this is claude. nolen sitting on the edge over costs and presence and. missing reality that's nothingness. but if you enter this time of the mystery of supernatural creatures. shayna know siberia are.

georgia's capital tbilisi has acquired a new look a nuisance moves the city's spirits and its unique architecture and restored central tblisi attracts many tourists however several streets are still massive construction sites. which is what if you're going for a scone you'd see the city's historical sense that it would be good if they don't really care about its outskirts. give e.s.d. is one of george's most successful restoration architects the old central areas of several towns simply revamped. that he began his restoration work in the ancient town of signatures. the joke was nowhere near the scale of to please see but back then it was the first time that several

neighborhoods were restored symbols and mystery. then the amount of work and its intensity were overwhelming in the beginning. of the project and nearly nine months of continuous work. we only slept three or four hours a day. though despite all the difficulties we completed the job successfully. be today is one of george's tourist attractions while architects were trying to improve the town's appearance the residents had no idea of what was really going on behind their backs before restoration work began the small shop in central signal was taking enough.
