MIAMI BEACH, FL, April 04, 2012 (Press-News.org) In this 17-minute short the writer of El Cantante, starring Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, has now taken on the role of writer, producer and director.
Blind hell depicts the story of a man who takes a questionable moral path in life, only to lose everything he cares about, including his eyesight.
Treading though life in his "Blind Hell", the character is given a second chance for life and redemption.
"I believe in karma. I think life catches up with you, but everyone needs a second chance. I know I myself have been given a million chances," says Bello who has had his own run in with tragedy.
The sudden death of his girlfriend of 19 years catapulted him onto a path of search for significance and impact apparent in his writing and filmmaking.
"Something like this changes you. I have a bigger purpose in life now...I want to do something that means something..."
The initial inspiration of using a blind character came form the lead actor, Jase Haber, himself. Haber approached Bello and told him he wanted to play a blind man, which set the inspirational process in motion.
Blind hell is a movie with minimal dialog, and Haber had to find a way to express the intense emotions without the use of words. "Jase is one of those people you wait a lifetime to meet. The hardest thing is to portrait a character and only have your body to get your point across." says Bello who worked with Haber on various projects.
Bello's shortage of dialog, yet powerful expression was inspired by Robert Downey Junior's portrait of Charlie Chaplin. Bello was impressed with the performance and wanted to add an element of this quiet intensity.
Blind Hell was filmed in Miami where Bello currently resides.
"Miami is a great place to film. It's full of culture, interesting people and this colorful Latin community." Bello also utilizes developing talent from local film schools and colleges in Miami. "I've always had an eye for talent, and when I see it I like to give back and develop these kids. I tap into young students who I think are going to be somebody. I guess I have a knack for finding people."
Todd Bello has five more script and films in various stages of production.
Many major film studios and producers are jocking to buy or produce them.

Discerning Travellers for Selected Properties in Sicily
2012-04-04
I voluntarily began my tour of Sicilian dwellings at this 17th Century Palazzo built on the old city walls because of its owners who are my friends. My feelings for this place, the last home of the famous writer Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, are particularly fond and my appreciation for its imposing beauty have kept me close to the actual owner, Gioacchino Lanza Tomasi, whose painstaking restoration of the structure and its halls have brought it back to its original grandeur.
Today I have left my sentimentalism behind and replaced it with a professional attitude.

Exercise which can achieve both cardiovascular function and muscle strength "would be a preferred mode of training for older persons", say investigators
Experienced practitioners of Tai Chi, the traditional Chinese mind-body exercise now enjoyed worldwide, have been shown in a study of older subjects to have improved expansion and contraction of arteries according to cardiac pulsation (arterial compliance) and improved knee muscle strength.(1)
The findings, say the investigators, of better muscle strength without jeopardising arterial compliance suggest that Tai Chi ...

Study: Golfers can improve their putt with a different look
2012-04-04
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Golfers looking to improve their putting may find an advantage in visualizing the hole as bigger, according to a new study from Purdue University.
"People in our study made more successful putts in a smaller hole when a visual illusion helped them perceive it as larger," said Jessica K. Witt, an assistant professor of psychological science who studies perception in sports. "We know that how people perceive the environment affects their ability to act in it, such as scoring as basket or hitting a baseball, and now we know that seeing a target as ...

BIOLOGY -- When neutrons and simulation unite . . .
Scientific analysis of proteins, the workhorses of the cellular world, could become easier by uniting experimental and simulation techniques, according to research published in Biophysical Journal. A team led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Jeremy Smith demonstrated how the combination of high-performance computer simulation and a type of neutron analysis called spin echo can be used to study certain motions in proteins. When large chunks of proteins called domains move relative to each other, these interdomain motions ...
