Ashley Davies: Cannes' high heels rule is absurd.
CANNES going flat out to make itself look ridiculous with ban, official or otherwise, on 'sensible' shoes, writes Ashley Davies.
I used to think I hated weddings, then I realised that what I truly hate is having feet so sore that my neutral facial expression becomes a constipated scowl that acts as a forcefield against potential friends, and I want to deck anyone who's having a blast on the dance floor. This tends only to happen after a particularly galling general election result or when I'm wearing heels because, to me, like many other women, wearing high shoes feels about as natural as wearing a bustle, a corset and a great flashing lampshade.

Thankfully though, it is very rare that I am forced to wear high shoes because this is the 21st century and we're not in the middle of a twisted nightmare. The weddings at which I have had the most fun have been those when I just thought 'sod it' and wore flats. Following one particularly joyous event, at which I wore a decent dress and flat sandals, my spouse sweetly informed me that I looked like a Florida retiree (though I had left the tennis visor on top of my Bing Crosby records so Lord knows what he was on about).

Nobody should be made to wear heels if the don't want to unless they're a model and are being paid stupid money for it, and even then, it's a bit ruddy weird, isn't it

This week right-thinking people all over the world cursed into their coffees when it emerged that a woman had been turned away from a Cannes Film Festival red carpet event because she wasn't wearing high heels. Vicci Ho, a former film festival programmer in her 50s, turned up in a formal outfit, wearing very smart - no doubt expensive - flats and was told by the security guards that it just wouldn't do. This random sartorial standard, by the way, is particularly laughable coming from an institution that drinks greedily from the publicity generated by starlets who often look like they'd planned to show up naked but thanks to an opportune gust of wind half a dozen Quality Street wrappers had got stuck on their silky skin.

Only after a ten-minute argument in which Ho explained that she had an ankle problem and physically couldn't obey their ridiculous dress code did they relent and let her in.

There were reports of other women being rejected from the glitter-fest for similar reasons, and actors including Josh Brolin and Benicio del Toro have threatened to walk the red carpet in high heels as a protest against this outdated stupidity.

I have no problem at all with women choosing to wear killer heels if they like them and look or feel good in them but, as a former tomboy who would rather wear shoes I can run away and climb a fence in, I find it hard to believe they are not torturing themselves. As well as ruining your mood, high heels can really mash up your feet, causing bunions and callouses, as well as bringing on spinal problems. If you wear them too often they can interfere so badly with your arches that walking barefoot feels alien. A lot of us have memories of elderly relatives who only ever wore formal shoes and their poor twisted toes ended up looking like the roots of a plant that should have been repotted years ago.
To me, wearing heels is disabling - as one like-minded colleague puts it, they make some of us feel like the lame impala who's definitely going to catch that hungry lion's eye.

Of course I'm not blind: I can appreciate that some beautiful shoes are works of art and that legs and ankles look prettier and more slender when toes are pointed, and, as someone who has put more money into make-up than my pension pot, I'm guilty of trying to improve on nature, but are high heels worth the hassle if they actually hurt you And who are women doing it for Is it to appeal to the sort of men who use the term 'women in comfortable shoes' as a disparaging euphemism Because I, for one, don't give a curled-up Compeed about impressing people like that. Or is it a contemporary display of alpha femalehood Who knows

I reckon a woman looks much more attractive and elegant when she's strong, happy and relaxed, and while there are some who can achieve this in heels, there are many whose feet and legs are clearly so stiff and uncomfortable it looks like they're pushing invisible wheelbarrows.
I'd say most of my friends - raving, hairy feminists, the lot of 'em - err on the side of comfort. But one especially formidable colleague wears five- inch heels nearly all the time. She's been in training since she was 11, when her mother had her walking with books on her head and perilous footwear. She always looks perfectly groomed and has perfect posture, and nobody but nobody messes with her.

My best friend, who is taller than most men I know, is practically always in heels, and would probably wear them into the gym if she was allowed. I suspect both these women feel flats would make them look underdressed, and trainers would make them feel scruffy.

Lots of women I know, particularly those who as kids weren't tall enough to go on the good rides, feel empowered when they're in heels: it gives them valuable extra height and makes them feel ready for potentially challenging workplace situations. And some industrial relations studies show that women in flat, comfortable shoes are taken less seriously at work because they somehow appear to be less driven.

Then there's the sexuality issue, which so often rears its daft head. Biological anthropologist Dr Helen Fischer has said that heels force a woman's body into 'lordosis', or what we might euphemistically term a 'courting pose'. Sexual readiness, basically. Which is fine if that's a state you are trying to communicate but, Christ on a bike, nobody should be forced into it, particularly at work, which is what Cannes is to most people there.

A lot of my irritation with the pressure to wear shoes that hurt - in normal life or indeed in Cannes - boils down to the simple but valid question: if men don't have to do it, why the darn should we.

PRH (Personality & Human Relations) Zimbabwe
Our present lifestyle in Zimbabwe has become so frantic with stress and worries. We so easily become as frantic as the situations we encounter on a daily basis and the problem with that is that without calm, there is no wisdom, no impulse control and no real peace of mind. We're more likely to become emotionally reactive and unclear in our thinking, without deep peace of mind we cannot be the people we are capable of being, and we cannot live the lives we are capable of living. With our PRH training we guide you to a more clear and understanding place within you where you can access your gifts, talents and positive qualities to live more fruitful and wholesome lives. Join us on one of these workshops and journey with others into a better and more peaceful lifestyle.

6th June (Saturday) STRESS SPEAKS
Stress is mental, emotional or physical strain caused by excessive stimulation or demands. It results in physical symptoms. In developing new awareness of your body's messages about stress, you will build a more attentive and healthy relationship with your body. You will discover how your symptoms of stress can guide you to your inner riches.

8th - 11th June HELPING MY CHILDREN BECOME THEMSELVES
This is a 4 day workshop and is suitable for parents of children of all ages as well as child care professionals, teachers and youth workers. It is about becoming clear about what you experience with each child's unique way of being. And to discover how to help each child develop according to this unique personality.

PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO AND THE ACADEMY

THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM
Thursday 4 June in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
Bourne is once again brought out of hiding, this time inadvertently by London-based reporter Simon Ross who is trying to unveil Operation Blackbriar, an upgrade to Project Treadstone, in a series of newspaper columns. Bourne sets up a meeting with Ross and realises instantly they're being scanned. Information from the reporter stirs a new set of memories, and Bourne must finally, ultimately, uncover his dark past whilst dodging The Company's best efforts to eradicate him.
'The best blockbuster of the summer and the most accomplished thriller since, well, Supremacy. This is the pay-off Bourne fans have been waiting for and the standard to which future blockbusters should be held.' [Empire ]
'A pounding, pulsating thriller that provides an almost constant adrenaline surge for nearly two hours.' [Variety]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m. - must be ordered in advance.

MUSIC FOR LITTLIES
The Academy will be launching 'Music for Littlies', starting on Friday 5 June from 11.00 to 12.00.
Introduce children to the wonderful world of music with sessions on percussion, rhythm and listening to music as well as stories and songs. The class is aimed specifically at three to five-year-olds and will initially cost $8.00 per session or $30.00 per month. Depending on numbers, the price may come down - and a second, afternoon session take place on Wednesdays.
Full detauls avaiable from the academy office; 60684 / 67195 or by e-mail: zam@gatorzw.co.uk.

GIORDANO: ANDREA CHENIER
Friday 5 June in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Andrea Chenier is an opera full of heart-stopping big tunes and powerful emotional situations. If it is not as well-known as it should be, it is perhaps because in summary it sounds a little too like Puccini's Tosca (which it preceded by four years) there is a tussle between political opponents over a woman, an attempt to save a condemned man, a tenor aria about writing poetry on the eve of execution. The difference is that Gerard is not a villain like Scarpia, he is an idealist whom the French Revolution has betrayed as much as it has his rival, the poet Chenier (Placido Domingo). His temptation to abuse his power to seduce the virtuous Maddalena is a momentary one, though its consequences are terrible.

Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00) - must be ordered in advance.

THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN
Thursday 11 June in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
The Man with the Golden Gun is the ninth Bond film and the second in which Roger Moore starred as Bond who in this outing must find the missing "Solex Agitator", a device that will harness the sun's radiation and give awesome power to whoever possesses it. But also vying for the prize is Scaramanga [Christopher Lee], a world-class assassin who brandishes a distinctive golden gun, and, when a golden bullet arrives at the headquarters of British intelligence with "007" engraved on it, Bond is hurled into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, continuing the search as he evades the killer on his trail....

Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.30 p.m. - must be ordered in advance.

NIELSEN: MASKARADE
Friday 12 June in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Denmark's greatest composer, Carl Nielsen, was born 150 years ago on 9 June 1865 but you could certainly be forgiven for not having heard or even heard of Maskarade. Although it became Denmark's "national opera" almost from its premiere in 1906, it hasn't travelled which is our loss as it's also one of the few comic operas of the 20th century to exude genuine, life-enhancing comedy.
'This performance of Nielsen's comic opera from the Bregenz Festival is of startling brilliance. The cast is of an extremely high calibre and Ulf Schirmer's conducting of them and the Vienna Symphony Orchestra is full of conviction. Everything on stage is gorgeous to look at, and the same can be said of the production.' [International Record Review]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00) - must be ordered in advance.

7) Bulawayo News

JOHANNESBURG - South Africa's controversial new visa regulations kicked in on Monday.
The regulations are part of government's efforts to reduce child trafficking, but people who oppose it say the new rules will have a negative impact on the tourism industry.
For those planning trips abroad, here is a list of what you need to know:
1. Foreigners who want to visit SA must apply for visas in person at the South African embassies abroad and have their biometric data (fingerprints) captured.
2. Children under the age of 18 must carry full or unabridged birth certificates showing the names of both parents when travelling.
3. South African children travelling abroad need to carry an original birth certificate.
According to Africa Check, if both parents are not travelling with the child more documents are needed when entering the country:
4. When only one parent is travelling with a child: The parent staying at home must provide an affidavit providing consent to the child travelling with the other parent, as well as copy of their identity document or passport, Pretoria immigration attorney Julian Pokroy explained to Africa Check.
5. When couples are divorced: The Immigration Amendment Act is not entirely clear on the requirements if parents are divorced. Pokroy suggested that a certified copy of the divorce order should be carried in addition to the letter of consent from the other parent and a copy of their identity document. If the parent not travelling with the child has refused to give consent, then the other parent will have to get a court order, he said.
6. When one parent has died: If one of the parents has died, a certified copy of the death certificate must be taken along.
7. When the father is unknown: The mother will need to show an affidavit saying that she is solely responsible for the child, said Mayihlome Tshwete, spokesman for the Minister of Home Affairs.
8. When parents are the same sex: The full birth certificate allows for same-sex parents to travel with their children. 'This is called A and B parents,' Home Affairs minister Malusi Gigaba tweeted recently.
9. When children are travelling without their parents: The Immigration Amendment Act states that the child must carry an affidavit from parents confirming that they have permission to travel without them - whether alone, or with a relative, school group or friends - as well as copies of the parents' identity documents and contact details. When travelling with a relative or another adult, a copy of the unabridged birth certificate can be used.
10. When a child is travelling alone to South Africa: The child must carry a letter from the person that will be receiving him in South Africa, containing the person's address and contact details, as well as a copy of the host's identity document or passport. In this case, the Immigration Amendment Act makes no mention of carrying a birth certificate.

Dear Member
You may have read that the construction of Victoria Falls airport is expected to be complete by the end of August. It is then hoped that in due course wide-bodied planes will be flying into Victoria Falls bringing in up to 300 passengers at a time. It is therefore the aim of the Bulawayo Publicity Association and members of the tourist industry to tap into this market by setting up package tours involving Bulawayo, the Matopos, Hwange and the Falls which will be promoted to overseas and regional travel agents and wholesalers. We are targeting multigenerational groups, comprising children, parents and grandparents. According to a study realized by a United States hotel group, which has resorts and hotels world- wide, multigenerational travel is poised for rapid growth.

The Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Transport informed the Association that there is now a push to bring more conferences to Bulawayo, as exemplified by the recent Transport conference which was attended by internationals followed by a Medical Congress. The Permanent Secretary said that these conferences would bring more visitors to Bulawayo and that many participants would stay in guest houses as well as hotels.

Stanbic Bank has renovated its JM Nkomo Street/8th Avenue branch and it is looking most impressive. The banking hall has been divided into three areas comprising Cash, Customers Services and the ATM which is open for 24 hours.

The Bulawayo Publicity Association receives a great deal of help in cash and kind from members and individuals for which it is exceedingly grateful. The latest very generous donation has come from Baron's Motor Spares (Mr D Winterboer) of certain spare parts for the Association's car which, we might add, is long past its sell-by date. Thank you so much Mr Winterboer.
