"Assume Nothing" trailer - in UK Cinemas Wednesday 13th April 2011 - Directed By: Kirsty MacDonald

Uploaded by on Jun 9, 2009
Excerpt from New Zealand filmmaker Kirsty MacDonald's Feature Documentary "Assume Nothing."
 
"Many of us assume that there are only two genders and that being female or male follows from the sex of our biological bodies. Focusing on the art, photography and performances of five "alternative" gender artists of Maori, Samoan-Japanese, and European descent, Assume Nothing poses the questions: "What if "male" and "female" are not the only options? How do other genders express themselves through art?" Intimate present-day interviews and actuality are interspersed with lush Super-8, 2-D and 3-D animations and beautifully staged performances - blurring the conventions of documentary, animation, drama and gender in the process. Meticulously crafted, playful and provocative, Assume Nothing travels from Wellingtons Red Rocks to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to explore the potent creative world that flourishes between and beyond genders".

Weekly LoveCast® "Moon in Leo teams up with other fiery influences on Tuesday and Wednesday to make passion sizzle....."

By Cortney Litwin

April 11th to the 17th 

 Ignite Your Passion

The week begins with an enthusiastic Mercury-Jupiter conjunction in Aries, great for social repartee and humorous exchanges – if the Mars-Pluto square doesn’t cause a confrontation of some sort. Moon in Leo teams up with other fiery influences on Tuesday and Wednesday to make passion sizzle. During the weekend, the Full Moon in Libra rattles relationships on Saturday, but favors shared activities (and sharing your heart) on Sunday. Best days for socializing: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday.
.
Aries: Your brainpower intensifies your charisma at the start of the week, so share your feelings, ideas and insights. Just be mindful of getting drawn into an argument. Romance can be found at a party or club midweek. During the weekend, selfishness can upset love on Saturday, but a rendezvous brings satisfaction on Sunday!
.
Taurus: Home fires burn brightly on Tuesday and Wednesday, when hosting a dinner party for friends or a cozy date with your sweetie can bring delight. A sexy tryst is nearly assured on Thursday! This weekend, duty or low energy may sidetrack romance on Saturday, but your sweetness makes you a magnet for love on Sunday!
.
Gemini: A conflict may unhinge a friendly gathering at the beginning of the week. Your natural objectivity can help restore harmony. Flirting in-person or online brings a sexy interlude on Tuesday or Wednesday. A romantic getaway is favored as well. Romance is turbulent on Saturday, but your humor and enthusiasm inspire romance on Sunday!
.
Cancer: Emotions will get out of control at the start of the week unless you remain centered. Showing your appreciation brings/inspires love on Tuesday or Wednesday. Sharing your feelings inflames passion on Thursday. This weekend’s Full Moon may ignite a family problem or pattern on Saturday. Hosting a party (for two?) energizes you on Sunday! 
.
Leo: Having a positive attitude can bring romance or even a career opportunity on Tuesday or Wednesday, so be open to receiving a gift from the Universe. Analyzing your love life brings a valuable insight on Thursday. A misunderstanding can unhinge love on Saturday, but verbalizing your feelings will get love back on track on Sunday!
.
Virgo: Sexy wordplay will energize intimacy at the beginning of the week, but be mindful of emotional boundaries. A dash of drama in your words or style inspires romance on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Still, taking the lead in love can bring good results on Sunday.
.
Scorpio: A power struggle is likely to arise on Monday; use your insight to see the bigger picture of the issue. A public event or career-related activity can bring romance on Wednesday or Thursday. Romance can be found during a group gathering on Thursday. Analyzing the past will bring a startling insight about your love life this weekend.
.
Sagittarius: A brainy connection can spark a passionate romp at the start of the week, if you avoid willfulness. Exploring a new locale will prompt a romantic interlude on Wednesday or Thursday. An educational or spiritual activity can bring romance, too. This weekend, socializing gets out of control on Saturday, but friends bring fun on Sunday.
.
Capricorn: Emotions are turbulent on Monday, so strive to stay balanced. Some creativity between the sheets is sure to intensify pleasure on Tuesday or Wednesday. Passion escalates even more on Thursday! A trip or online flirtation can bring romance on Friday. An issue about authority, commitment or responsibility may unhinge love during this weekend’s prickly Full Moon.
.
Aquarius: Your humor or wisdom inspires romance at the beginning of the week. Partnership energy soars on Tuesday and Wednesday, so plan something fun with your sweetie or be on the lookout for someone new. A clash of views about the future can upset love on Saturday. An exotic locale will set passion ablaze on Sunday!
.
Pisces: Romance blooms on Monday, if a social situation/issue doesn’t spoil the fun. A courageously creative show of feelings will heat up passion on Tuesday or Wednesday! Thursday is a good time for an intimate date your sweetie. Sex may seem complicated or blocked on Saturday, but a humorous or entertaining activity energizes romance on Sunday.

Russell Grant’s Daily Horoscopes: Monday 11th April 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Safety measures should be first and foremost in your mind if new ventures involve many people. Large amounts of information will be shared: expect to be doing a lot of talking. You could be told one thing by one person but others will contradict this. Be sure to read the small print of all policies and contracts which could say something completely different to what you are being told. There is no deliberate deception but mistakes and misunderstandings can be avoided if you stay alert.
 .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Something you’re doing is attracting a lot of attention. The one person who is totally unaware of the situation is a friend or loved one who stands to benefit from all that is going on. They have pulled strings for you in the past and you’re in a position to help them now. You’ve got a lot on today and tomorrow. To fit it all in, get up early, check your schedule and prioritise. Eat light to ensure early digestion and get to bed at a sensible hour as you will need your sleep!
 .
Gemini (May22/June21) You might sign up for a workshop; there is no guarantee it’ll be successful but it’s an experience you will enjoy. It’s always good to have dreams and to set long term goals but you must also keep your feet on the ground. You’re making big changes in your life and you need time to consider all options. If you must go ahead with a risky venture, have alternatives ready for worst case scenarios but don’t let this stop you from hoping for the best.
 .
Cancer (June22/July23) The way you’re being so generous and giving of your time is likely to make you a new friend. You might be seriously thinking about diversifying your career or setting up your own business. If you can make a living out of it and give the client what they want at the end of the day, you will feel you’re doing a useful service. Choosing your own path will give your life more purpose and you will have challenges ahead to look forward to.
 .
Leo (July24/Aug23) If you’re running behind schedule, this may have nothing to do with planning but rather other people interfering. You need to get to the root of the problem and decide on the best option to get things moving forward again. There’s a tendency for someone close to keep ribbing you about a recent gaffe you made you’d rather not be reminded about. Don’t let them see they’re starting to annoy you or they will only prolong their fun!
 .
Virgo (Aug24/Sept23) Are you sticking to your budget and plans already made or are new ideas starting to cost you a fortune? It is essential to keep on top of all financial matters. Check the list of all monthly payments you already have in place. Cross reference this with your bank statements. Have you fallen into a continuous payment agreement without your knowledge? Go to bank or building society and dispute unauthorised charges should you have any discrepancies.
 .
Libra (Sept24/Oct23) If you made a wrong move in the past and promised you would never do this again, don’t be tempted to repeat this mistake. Whether you’re selling your jewellery for cash to pay some bills or getting involved with the wrong crowd, do you really want to go through the same regrets and recriminations? Forget about falling back on habits that didn’t work in the past. You need to explore productive possibilities where income and social activities are concerned.
 .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Go with your feelings and trust your instincts today; logical thinking will not give a taste of happiness. If you are choosing between new career directions, new love relationships or following your own interests as opposed to supporting your partner with theirs, let your heart lead the way. Happiness will help unite all that is in your life, it is the glue that holds everything together. Making sensible choices after rational analysis will not guarantee contentment.
 .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Anything that can go wrong will appear to go wrong. It all seems to be happening on the one day and that is now! Someone might ask if you are accident prone and you might start to wonder yourself! You could do with a cosy night in with your partner. If you are single, you might long for romance. There are many lonely hearts drifting in the Sea of Life searching for a soulmate. Join a club or an online dating website and you could meet your special someone.
 .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) A slowly simmering disagreement seems set to escalate. Every individual is unique with their own opinions; you are increasingly aware of differences between yourself and another. Your acceptance of their right to have their own views is not reciprocated. The thrust of today’s conversations and experiences is insightful in that you are starting to realise you and a new comrade or colleague aren’t ever going to agree. The phrase ‘separate ways’ might spring to mind!
 .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) You’re learning lessons the hard way when it comes to forgiving someone for a repeated mistake. Your kindness has been taken for granted once too often. You may now have misgivings about ever having offered to help someone in the first place. True your intention was to give help unconditionally but it is the way someone is making their reliance on you a habit that needs to be checked. You have done enough; it is time for them to stand on their own two feet.
 .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Keeping your head above water could be increasingly difficult. Paying interest and charges on loans and overdrafts are growing. It may even be that more money is going out than coming in. Tension and worry makes you question your decisions and wonder whether you could manage your finances and other areas of your life better. To get out of this rut the best course is to get professional advice.
