Almost The Truth: The Lawyers Cut tells the story of Monty Python through brand new interviews with the Pythons: John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones & Michael Palin and archive material from the late Graham Chapman.

Most musical fans point to Julie Andrews or Judy Garland as their favorite actresses. But I’m all about the underseen, underappreciated genius of Betty Hutton. This clip of her eye-popping (and eye-stretching) performance in a B-musical comedy serves as a light introduction to her style. Hutton’s most notable film role was the part of Annie Oakley in the 1950 musical of “Annie Get Your Gun.” One of her best known songs (Blow a Fuse, later renamed It’s Oh So Quiet) was covered by Icelandic artist, Bjork ( Björk ).
In this excerpt from Tributary Streams of A Healing River, the Honourable Associate Chief Judge Murray Sinclair speaks about his personal challenges while working in the criminal justice system. Tributary Streams of a Healing River is an in depth study of restorative justice with over 14 hrs of video on 10 dvds. (available from Heartspeak Productions — www.heartspeakproductions.ca) Speakers Bio: Chief Judge Murray Sinclair was appointed Associate Chief Judge of the Provincial Court of Manitoba in March of 1988. He was Manitoba's first Aboriginal Judge, and at that time, Canada's second. After serving as Special Assistant to the Attorney General of Manitoba, Judge Sinclair attended the Universities of Winnipeg and Manitoba and, in 1979, graduated from the Faculty of Law at the University of Manitoba. He was awarded the AJ Christie Prize in Civil Litigation in his second year of law and articled with a law firm in his home town of Selkirk, Manitoba. He was called to the Manitoba Bar in 1980. In the course of his legal practice, Judge Sinclair practiced primarily in the fields of Civil and Criminal Litigation and Aboriginal Law. He represented a cross section of clients but by the time of his appointment, was known for his representation of Aboriginal people and his knowledge of Aboriginal legal issues. Shortly after his appointment as Associate Chief Judge of the Provincial Court of Manitoba in 1988, Judge Sinclair was also appointed as Co-Commissioner, along with Court of Queen's Bench Associate Chief Justice AC Hamilton, of Manitoba's Aboriginal Justice Inquiry. buffy.jpg (6592 bytes)Manitoba Government Home Page
