IN the central region of Thessaly, about a five-hour drive northwest of
Athens, rise the aptly named Meteora -- slate-gray cones and buttelike
outcroppings reaching as high as 2,000 feet. They appear in their crookedness
to be staggering, as if fatigued from surviving eons of tectonic tumult

Byzantine monasteries that top them have made them one of Romaic Greece's most
spectacular sights

Roussanou Monastery Meteora - Greece" />

legend has it that the first anchorite to reach the highest
summit -- that of the Great Meteoron -- to found a proper monastery did so on the
back of an eagle in 1340. Within 200 years twenty-four idiorrhythmic, or
self-governing, monasteries crowned the Meteora.

Today six monasteries

still functioning
and may be visited, using either the town of Kalambaka or the village of
Kastraki as a base

CASE 3

A woman, a victim of incest by her father and uncle, felt
like she was "going crazy" when getting in touch with her real
feelings about what happened. The 'crazy' feeling was swirling
all around her. When asked what it was like, she said it was like
many atoms swirling around her. The atoms had a nucleus, which
was like a bomb...an atom bomb. Inviting the atom bomb into her past,
it went through an old basement door. Because the bomb was swirling,
the father and uncle thought it was her and went in after her/it. As
soon as they went through the door, it slammed shut. A few moments
later there was a nuclear explosion. When the dust settled, the
basement was completely filled up with the fall-out from the
explosion. Through the years, the violations that took place in that
basement had continued to play in the back of her head. Now
that the basement was permanently filled in, the memories could no
longer take place in that basement again.

chimps show "grief"

UNITED in what appears to be profound grief, more than a dozen chimpanzees stood in silence from their enclosure as the body of one of their own was wheeled past

When a chimp called Dorothy, in her late 40s, died of heart failure, her fellow apes seemed to be stricken by sorrow.

As they wrapped their arms around each other, Dorothy's keeper gave her an affectionate stroke on the head and settled her into the wheelbarrow that carried her to her grave.

Until recently, describing scenes like this in terms of human emotions such as grief would have been dismissed by scientists

But growing evidence suggests higher emotions, such as grieving and a understanding of death, may not be a human preserve.

Chimpanzees

have often been seen apparently grieving for family and tribe members by entering a period of mourning after a death

in the hot summer of August 1959 that Asterix was born, brainchild of writer René Goscinny and illustrator Albert Uderzo. Just months later, the mustached hero and his rotund sidekick Obelix made their publishing debut in the first edition of Pilote, a comics magazine for children on Oct. 29, 1959.

the plucky warrior celebrates his 50th birthday this month -- a fine excuse for roast boar and a mug of beer.

"Ho White" and the 7 Dwarves

clipper's remarks: beer-selling ad....that's great, just destroy all
the innocent imagery.

it's Snow White like you've never seen before.

Now this risque version of the fairytale favourite, renamed "Ho White" to promote a local beer, has drawn the wrath of Disney.
The Jamieson's Raspberry Ale campaign, launched by brewers The Foundry online this week, features an adults-only take on the fairytale character, with dwarves named Filthy, Smarmy and Randy replacing Sleepy, Happy and Doc.

Campaign creators The Foundry claimed the idea was to convince Australian drinkers that the fruit-flavoured beer was "anything but sweet".
