It's two weeks into the free agent season and two notable unsigned names stand out.
It's not so much news that Steven Stamkos and Drew Doughty - two of the leagues brightest young stars and consensus cornerstone franchise building blocks - don't have a contract.
It's that the two restricted free agents haven't been offered a contract by any other team interested in their services.
According to capgeek.com, there are six teams currently operating under the salary cap floor of $48 million and nowhere near the salary cap maximum of $64 million.
The team with the furthest gap to reach the floor is the New York Islanders, a team that's more than $10 million below the floor. They are followed by the Nashville Predators ($7.091M), Colorado Avalanche ($3.095M), Phoenix Coyotes ($2.781M), Winnipeg Jets ($2.458M) and Carolina Hurricanes ($752K).
Now we all know the rules of restricted free agency - a team can sign a player to an offer sheet, leaving the player's original team the opportunity to match the deal. If the offer is matched, the player remains with his original club with the terms from the offer sheet becoming his contract.
Should the team refuse to match that deal, the player moves on to his new team, and draft picks are sent over as compensation depending on how much the new contract is worth. It's considered the price to pay for doing business.
That's not exactly a steep price for a team like the Islanders, whose list of prominent franchise-altering gems practically begins and ends with John Tavares.
While the Predators find themselves in this position to lock up Shea Weber to a long-term deal, the Avalanche could use another stud to go with their growing stable of young talent. However, Colorado traded their 2012 first round draft pick to the Washington Capitals to acquire Semyon Varlamov, making them ineligible to tender an offer sheet. But they could work out a trade like the Toronto Maple Leafs did to acquire Phil Kessel from the Boston Bruins.
The ownership situation would make spending any type of big money out of the question in Phoenix, but Winnipeg could make a gigantic splash - or at least show the willingness to go for it right now, by stepping up to the plate.
In the end, the worst that could happen is that you lose out on an elite player. But the reward could be the addition of a player who could become a cornerstone of the franchise for years to come.
Stamkos, 21, is coming off a 45-goal, 91-point campaign, after pouring in 51 goals the year before.
Doughty, meanwhile, was an All-Star in just his second season in the league. Even after what many considered an off-year last season, it's hard to deny that he is already one of the premier defencemen in the league at the tender age of 21.
It's widely believed that the Kings and Lightning will match any offers to their respective young stars, but which of these teams that need to add salary would benefit most from adding one of these two young stars?
You've heard what we've had to say, now tell us what you think: Which team below the salary cap floor should make a push to sign Stamkos or Doughty?

(Reuters) - Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand has been suspended for five games for an illegal low hit on Vancouver Canucks defenseman Sami Salo, the National Hockey League (NHL) said on Monday.
The incident occurred late in the second period of the Bruins' 4-3 home loss on Saturday when Marchand clipped Salo at the knees along the boards and was assessed a major penalty along with a game misconduct.
Marchand, who was classified as a repeat offender having been suspended for two games last March, will forfeit $152,439.02.
"Rather than deliver a shoulder-to-shoulder check, Marchand drops down dangerously low into Salo's knees area," explained Brendan Shanahan, the NHL's vice-president of player safety and hockey operations.
"We feel this was a predatory low hit that was delivered intentionally by Marchand to flip his opponent over him."

theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory, which won him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1918.
Planck made many contributions to theoretical physics, but his fame rests primarily on his role as originator of the quantum theory. This theory revolutionized our understanding of atomic and subatomic processes, just as Albert Einstein's theory of relativity revolutionized our understanding of space and time. Together they constitute the fundamental theories of 20th-century physics. Both have forced humankind to revise some of the most cherished philosophical beliefs, and both have led to industrial and military applications that affect every aspect of modern life.

Media artist Miwa Matreyek tackles these questions in her artwork, which is impossible to label easily. She blends elements of theater, performance, animation and cinema to create magical live events layering multiple projections, recorded music and the image or silhouette of her own body moving through the projected images. The result is a spellbinding experience for an audience as we simultaneously marvel at the enchanting animated worlds she creates while at the same time try to imagine how the entire performance is working. What's real? What's animated? What's projected?
"From early on, I was interested in breaking down the languages of theater, performance and cinema, and I liked playing with the structure of video," explains Matreyek, who graduated from the California Institute of the Arts with an MFA in 2007, and now lives in Los Angeles. At CalArts, she was able to merge her interests in animation and collage, as well as theater, performance, cinema, puppetry and site specific art, through the Center for Integrated Media, an interdisciplinary laboratory that invites students who are interested in using technology in creative ways to experiment.
In the lab, Matreyek met fellow student Chi-wang Yang, and they began to work together. They spent hours playing with front and rear screen projection, exploring the various effects that they could create. Eventually they named their collaboration Cloud Eye Control (they were later joined by Anna Oxygen) and they began to design live performances that united projection and performance. One of their early pieces is "Ocean Flight," from 2005, which includes video footage of a person running; the footage is captured live during the performance on one side of the stage, but then projected onto another screen on the opposite side, where it is collaged together with yet another projection and another live performer. The mix of projection and live performance produces a dizzying and captivating kind of vertigo as you try to trace what's real versus what's projected while marveling at the magic of it all.
Matreyek's thesis project is titled "Dreaming of Lucid Living." "With this piece, I was playing a lot with sleight of hand," explains Matreyek. "I was playing with video and a black silhouette, and what's real and what's not to create a continuum between the virtual and the real." The project combines playful and yet visceral animated collages -- almost decorative drawings of skeletons, for example -- into which Matreyek layers the silhouette of her own body. She also creates entirely black-and-white images such that her own black silhouette can mingle among the projected images and you simply can't tell what's her and what's animated. In all of her work, Matreyek moves in carefully choreographed synchronization with the animation, and the result is spellbinding. "The pieces often have two narratives," she explains. "There's the story that is unfolded and presented to the audience alongside the narrative of the staging and the awareness of how the story is being made."
Matreyek completed a new major piece in 2010, "Myth and Infrastructure" and presented it at the TED Global event in Oxford, England that year, among many other high profile international festivals. This piece brings together many of the artist's earlier experiments, but connects her ongoing sense of visual playfulness with a kind of mythic expansiveness achieved primarily through scale. The artist's body merges with the universe and the result is a modern form of moving image folklore or mythology.
Matreyek's newest project is "This World Made Itself," which premiered at the Wexner Center for the Arts in Ohio last year and will be featured at this year's Sundance Film Festival as part of the New Frontiers Program. "It goes from the Big Bang to dinosaurs," says Matreyek, explaining the project's timeline. "In my mind, the piece is somewhere between Disney's 'Fantasia' and Carl Sagan's 'Cosmos.'"
"This World Made Itself" begins with incredibly beautiful animated images of molten rock and the formation of oceans and landmasses, and then moves on to the origins of life. Richly detailed and colorful -- and yet entirely surreal -- the imagery looks it was pulled from a children's encyclopedia from the 1950s. Matreyek's silhouette intercedes in the projected imagery, creating a mythic female presence moving gracefully through the prehistoric scene. We see her swimming in an ocean of fire, walking through tall grasses, traipsing across mountains.]]> "As an undergraduate, I was interested in physics," says Matreyek, explaining the piece's origins. "I loved science when it was very visible and tangible. When the classes became about math and I couldn't feel it in my body anymore, I was less interested. I feel like a lot of what I'm doing in my work now is trying to find a visceral way of connecting to or seeing the world. A lot of my animations have a sense of science -- even if it goes in an abstract direction. There's a sense of awe, and a desire to connect with the earth."
Matreyek also continues to be fascinated by the process of layering live performance and animation. "When you combine the body with video and music, it can create a feeling that defies the physics and gravity of the real world; the body becomes a bit more ephemeral and the animation can then become more tangible and have a weight to it."
The artist also appreciates playing with the tension between the narrative that we see onscreen, and the story of how the project is being made. "The audience is completing the illusion for me," she explains. "The audience has to do half the work. I think that's what keeps the audience engaged; they're solving puzzles as they watch. It's funny how much feedback I get from people. Their brains are constantly fighting between the story and how it's being done."
This World Made Itself from Miwa Matreyek on Vimeo.
Matreyek's work is part of larger movement in contemporary film practice that connects live performance with projected imagery, and in the process celebrates the fundamental magic of cinema. Filmmaker Jem Cohen, a participant in this movement, has described his own fascination as a kind of "primitive enchantment," which refers to the desire to return to the basic tools and technologies of image-making and projection in order to rediscover their magic. Add a fascination with the harmony between the body and the image and you have a pretty good description of Matreyek's work: primitive enchantment.
Matreyek will present "This World Made Itself and Myth and Infrastructure" at REDCAT Friday, Feb. 7 - Sunday, Feb. 9, 2014.

Frost works in time-lapse and stop motion, two techniques that both decouple time and space from their respective continuities. He takes individual pictures, freezing time and space, and then strings them tougher again, adding a new sense of temporal and spatial flow, and what he achieves in this seemingly simple process is nothing less than dazzling.
Frost's remarkable 2012 short video "Flawed Symmetry of Prediction" combines time-lapse imagery of the sky at night, a fire in the desert, and the world just outside a series of abandoned houses. These empty, often derelict rooms become canvases for Frost's painting experiments, which are captured in stop motion. This means that Frost sets up a camera, and then begins to paint; he steps out of the frame, takes a picture, steps back in, paints a bit more, and again steps out of the frame and takes another picture. And so on for literally hours. When these images are played sequentially, the painted lines and squares that transform the geometrical reality of the room they're in seem to appear magically by themselves. The result is that Frost is able to create portraits of imaginary worlds by collaging the real and the painted, and he does this in a very material way rather than using visual effects and a computer.
Flawed Symmetry of Prediction from Jeff Frost on Vimeo.
Frost says that the inspiration for these paintings is science and physics and the mind-bending paradoxes related to topics such as string theory and the multiple dimensions of reality. "What I do with my art is not so much a top-down message," he explains. "In a lot of ways, it's me trying to wrap my head around things. It comes from the gut; it's raw and messy and busy; but I like the concept of creation and destruction being the same thing. A lot of this work is me trying to wrap my head around the ultimate weirdness of the world."
Frost is currently working with more than 300,000 still images as part of the process of finishing up another bigger project titled "Circle of Abstract Ritual," which explores the cycles of creation and destruction. The two-year endeavor includes sections of images captured during violent protests against police brutality after an unarmed man was shot just outside Frost's apartment in Anaheim in the summer of 2012. "People were upset, and they pushed a burning dumpster into a five-lane highway," Frost explains. "But Anaheim is the home of Disneyland, and the police didn't want that." The result, says Frost, was several days of chaos, with riots, police dogs and fires. "I started time-lapsing the mayhem day and night," Frost says, and the images he shows are unforgettable portraits of rage hovering in suspended time. "I don't know if there's anything like this in the time-lapse world," he admits, and he may be right.
In addition to these riveting images of protest, Frost has also been taking photographs found as he sneaks into abandoned spaces in the city, such as a massive, empty Home Depot building in Anaheim, or the eerie halls of the Linda Vista hospital in Los Angeles, or even storm drains and underpasses, all of which become spectral haunts or perspective-bending architectural marvels as they're seen through the lens of Frost's camera.
Frost has also been visiting the desert lately. If you've ever been to Yucca Valley or Joshua Tree, you might fathom the desert's pull on a man like Frost; it's an inexorable tugging that compels him to leave behind the crowded, busy city to venture into the vast openness of sand and space just a few hours east of Los Angeles. The arid and dramatic landscape, as well as the sense of adventure conjured by being out there alone, reminds Frost of his childhood and the exploits he enjoyed with his grandfather, Alfred, exploring the mountains and plateaus of rural Utah. "He taught me curiosity and the desire to explore abandoned places," says Frost.
Later in life, the desert brought solace. "When I used to get unhappy, I'd go to the desert and camp out by myself. Alone at night, I felt like I could connect with the universe. I felt like I was part of this bigger whole, and in comparison with the immensity of the universe, my problems seemed insignificant."
Frost began making artworks in the desert. For one, titled "War Paint for Trees," he wrapped strips of material around the torqued branches of dead Joshua trees, and then created time-lapse images and video to produce a haunting portrait of a magical world of death and hope.
While he was working on that project, he met an artist named Steve Shigley, who goes by the name Shig. They began talking and quickly became friends. Shig's current artwork is dedicated to transforming Joshua trees as well. He works with trees that have been damaged in fires and cauterized by flames; he describes them as almost petrified. Shig covers the trees with a sealant, turns them upside down and then cuts them so that they can stand up like uncanny spiritual figures roaming the sand dunes out in the desert sun.
Frost met another desert denizen, artist Cain Motter, who owns a place called Domeland, a geodesic dome that his dad began building many years ago and which Motter has now turned into an artists' community. Shig, Motter and Frost began collaborating on what will be the final section of Frost's current project last year. In the section, two circles of Shig's trees will rotate in opposite directions, creating an evocative depiction of death and creation.
Frost, Shig and Motter spent two months clearing the hilltop where the trees would stand, flattening out the dirt and moving dead wood and big rocks. The shoot itself took place over two nights last November. Frost explains that, for budgetary reasons, he had to count on the good will of volunteers to help with the massive project. He created a sample video that showed what he was trying to do and managed to engage 13 people intrigued enough to help out.
They all meet at Domeland, and once it was dark enough, began the laborious process of moving 13 trees inch by inch in the two large circles to create the animated effect Frost was seeking. "The trees in the inner circle were 13 feet tall, and they're incredibly heavy," Frost explains. "I was terrified that they would tip over and someone would get hurt. Some did fall -- one landed about four inches away from me -- and it was pretty scary at first. There was a lot of confusion when we started, and then the light bulbs went on. People started moving the trees with a kind of rhythm and balance and good timing." Frost says he played several types of music at the start, trying to find a beat that would synch with the group's movements. "We ended up with old school blues music, Muddy Waters, and that got us into a groove. We moved those trees until 5:00 a.m. both nights."]]> Frost says that while he's very happy with the material he captured during the two-night shoot, he's also very interested in the connections that emerged and the sense of magic they all felt. "We all had experiences that we can't explain," he says, adding a quick caveat: "I'm not a mystic! That said, it's hard to explain what happens there - there's some aspect that goes beyond words. Walking around those trees, I had such intense experiences. They're so beautiful and graceful and I was filled with awe and there's something to it that I just can't explain."
Frost expects to finish his film by late February. And after that? "I'm hoping to do a film on fire," he says eagerly, explaining that he plans to train in order to get certified to be on the front lines of a major blaze with his camera. It only makes sense. Fire, like the night sky featured so frequently in Frost's work, or the vast desert that has inspired him lately, is a profound expression of ineffable power and beauty, embodying the potential for total annihilation alongside absolute creation. And these are the things that exhilarate Frost, pushing him to test the limits of his camera and his own fortitude in order to find ways to express the often extraordinary elemental forces of nature all around us.

Several of Los Angeles' greatest visual innovators -- Sharon Lockhart, Thom Andersen, and Natalie Bookchin -- present their work this week, demonstrating our city's incredible diversity in cinematic exploration.
Friday, April 6
The third iteration of Transmedia Hollywood takes place today. The event is a day-long seminar dedicated to exploring the transformation of the media industry and new kinds of storytelling and creative output. Hosted by Henry Jenkins and Denise Mann, the event includes panelists as varied as game designer Christy Dena and future cinema guru Nick DeMartino. The conference begins at 9:45 a.m. on the USC campus, and concludes at 8:00 p.m.
Saturday, April 7
The Echo Park Film Center presents Steve Dwoskin's 1974 film "Behindert." Labeled "Dwoskin's masterpiece," the 16mm film is described by critic Adrian Martin as "an astonishingly intimate recreation of Dwoskin's time with actor Carola Regnier (who gives a hypnotically intricate performance of her own desires and vulnerabilities." The film will screen at 8:00 p.m.
Thom Andersen's much loved portrait of Los Angeles as seen through hundreds of archival film clips will screen tonight at the American Cinematheque at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica. With "Los Angeles Plays Itself," Andersen brings together classic Hollywood features such as "Blade Runner" and "LA Confidential," as well as less well-known and decidedly unusual clips, and while the range of examples is huge, what makes the film so enormously pleasurable is Andersen's wry, idiosyncratic take spoken in voice-over. Andersen ponders the city's history, musing on architecture, geography, and storytelling obsessions, and occasionally rants about particular irritants -- the lack of geographic continuity in most Hollywood car chases, for example. The film will screen at 7:30 p.m.
Sunday, April 8
Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions will host a conversation between media artist Natalie Bookchin and Alexandra Juhasz, Professor of Media Studies at Pitzer College. The pair will discuss Bookchin's 18-channel video installation, "Now he's out in public and everyone can see," currently on view at LACE. The talk starts at 2:00 p.m. at LACE in Hollywood. The video installation uses YouTube videos in a way that "weaves together found fragments from online video diaries in which vloggers recount a series of media scandals involving African American men." The project continues a series of works in which the artist explores media, the boundary between private and public, as well as the display of multiple screens within a gallery space.
Monday, April 9
The Maine clam lives roughly nine inches below the wet surface of the coastal mud flats, where a small hole alone reveals its presence. Getting to the clams requires bending forward at the waist, plunging a gloved hand into the ooze, feeling for the round, razor sharp shell, and then pulling upward, the rude capture ending with a wet, sucking sound. It's backbreaking work, but through the lens of Sharon Lockhart's camera, it's also magnificent. Lockhart's "Double Tide," screening tonight at REDCAT at 8:30 p.m., chronicles a woman digging clams with a camera that remains resolutely still, letting us witness from a distance the woman's zigzag across the mud. The meditative portrait honors the labor alongside the beauty, the extraordinary effort within the splendor of the landscape. The filmmaker, who teaches in USC's Roski School of Fine Arts, will be in attendance.
A bevy of naked or semi-clothed female bodies -- voluptuous, shot from a polite distance, still images from a distant past -- populates the opening minutes of Abigail Child's short video "(If I Can Sing a Song About) Ligatures." Words or snippets of text -- fragments of poetry by Nada Gordon -- are juxtaposed with the images, creating unusual text-image combinations. Some name, others divert, some concatenate. All provoke. The easy pleasure of looking gets complicated by the words; the ripples of disruption grow as the images continue, the clarity of gender is undermined, stability is knocked aside, and in just these few minutes, we spin out along the outer edge of a whorl, from a comfortable center to a strange unknown.]]> Such is the power of words and images in the hands of avant-garde media artist Abigail Child, whose work will be showcased tonight at REDCAT in a show titled Narrative Bodies: Films and Videos by Abigail Child, featuring both older and more recent work.
Child has produced a remarkable body of films and videos dedicated to a true poetics of cinema -- indeed, in 2005 she published "This Is Called Moving: A Critical Poetics of Film," a collection of essays that links her work as both a filmmaker and poet.
Child's experiments in film include the seven-part series titled "Is This What You Were Born For?" from the 1980s in which the filmmaker interrogates everything from gender to genre by taking bits of existing footage and scrutinizing not only the visual vernacular of noir or melodrama, but individual gestures and movements, breaking down everyday activities into clearly coded acts of domination and submission. The REDCAT screening includes two films from this series, "Perils" and "Mayhem," both of which are celebrated examples of feminist revision.
Tonight's screening also includes the spectacular "Mirror World" from 2006. The film is a wonderful reimagining of a classic Bollywood feature, "Aan," by Mehboob Khan. The Hindi musical from 1952 features lurid colors, dramatic performances, and lots of singing and dancing in a story about a royal family and the peasants they torment. Child rifles through the film, radically reediting it to find a very different tale, one that features two women. Along the way, she has created dazzling, kaleidoscopic imagery, and she has revised the subtitles such that they act not as transcripts of dialogue but instead as a layer of poetic writing across the images. This gesture transforms the film into a sublime experience of reading and watching, and we are invited to produce an entirely new work as we conjure meaning across the chasm of image and text.
Despite many attempts throughout the history of cinema to derive a "language of cinema" or a "grammar of film," few filmmakers have worked seriously at the intersection of text and image, really exploring the incredible potential here. It's a delight to see Child continue to work at this juncture.
The REDCAT screening includes "Peripeteia I" (1977), "Perils" (1986), "Mayhem" (1987), "The Future Is Behind You" (2004-05), "Mirror World" (2006) and "Ligatures" (2009); it starts at 8:30 p.m., Monday, April 2, 2012]]>
The future still looks to the past for inspiration -- this week Abigail Child recalls early cinematic techniques for contemporary visual exploration and the Academy recalls the early days of projection...

Some of the best moments in cinematic history were created in the distant past, a notion underscored this week in L.A.'s media art scene with a return to the 1940s and the work of avant-garde icon Maya Deren, the extraordinary work of Claude Lanzmann in his landmark documentary Shoah, and in Christian Marclay's remarkable 24-hour film The Clock, created entirely from images from the past.]]> Thursday, March 22

Gregg Araki's 1992 film The Living End tackled the topic of AIDS at a moment when it was largely being ignored in mainstream filmmaking. Araki, a key figure in the history of L.A. independent film as well as the 1990s Queer Cinema movement, went on to make a long list of subsequent feature films, but The Living End, which has been remastered, remains a favorite for its sense of reckless energy. The UCLA Film & Television Archive presents the film tonight at 7:00 p.m. at the Billy Wilder Theater.
Monday, March 26
The Hammer Museum presents Claude Lanzmann's Shoah, an extraordinary film based on interviews with Holocaust survivors and perpetrators in 14 countries. The eight-hour film was not only a landmark in films about the Holocaust due to its combined intensity and intimacy, but in documentary filmmaking as well. The museum will screen the film in two parts, with the First Era (273 minutes) tonight starting at 7:00 p.m and the Second Era (230 minutes) screening tomorrow, also at 7:00 p.m.
In one of the many oddly riveting shots in Daniel Eisenberg's new film "The Unstable Object," large black-and-white plastic clocks glide across the frame from left to right carried by a rubber conveyor belt. A woman's hand pushes one back out of the frame, but it returns, pushing forward once again across the frame. In another shot, several of the round clocks are suspended crookedly on a pegboard. And in a third, we see wall after wall of clocks, all pointing to noon (or midnight) in a captivating portrait of analog time. The images are at once precisely what they are -- clocks being produced in a factory -- as well as indexes of so much more. They suggest our current moment, a sense of transition, the history of cinema itself and its shift from an analog art form that understood time in one way, to the digital and its focus on intensities...
The clock images are from the middle section of Eisenberg's film, which will screen at REDCAT Thursday, March 22 at 8:30 p.m. The film is a meditative visual essay that explores the production of three specific kinds of objects: high-end cars at the dazzling, high-tech VW Phaeton factory in Dresden; clocks at Chicago Lighthouse Industries; and cymbals in a factory in a town outside of Istanbul.
Each section observes the production process from beginning to end with careful attention to detail and an obvious affection for the specific textures, sounds and spaces of each workspace. In the car factory, we marvel at the incredible machinery and the synchronization of human workers and robotic intelligence. The space itself is pristine, the workers wear white jumpsuits and gloves, and the cars gleam under the bright lights. In the clock factory, the workers are blind, and move through cluttered but well-used workspace with care. While the car factory features a glistening finish, the clock factory is highly textured, and Eisenberg shows us how these textures help the workers assemble the clocks. In the cymbal factory, the work space seems almost to have been carved out of the earth. Workers stand in billowing clouds of grey steam as they hoist and pound glowing globs of molten material, and shafts of light illuminate some spaces, while others remain dark except for the orange glow of fire where the metal is heated.
Eisenberg, a Chicago-based filmmaker who teaches at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, writes eloquently about his film: "I am interested in the ways that 'things' transmit and elicit sensations of all kinds, both for the producer and the consumer." He continues, "The object becomes an intermediary, a medium for the transmission of sensation from the one who makes, to the one who takes." The things in "The Unstable Object" become the nexus for thinking about products and production, about consumers and consumption, and about more virtual systems of commerce, finance and exchange. But the genius of the film is how it manages to communicate all of this despite its relentless focus on the things at the center of the three portraits.
To read more about Eisenberg's work, see his essay about the film here, or take a look at "Postwar: The Films of Daniel Eisenberg", edited by Jeffrey Skoller and published by Black Dog Press; the book centers on four specific films from the filmmaker's larger body of work: "Displaced Person " (1981), "Cooperation of Parts" (1987), "Persistence" (1997), and "Something More Than Night" (2003).]]>

The Echo Park Film Center turns its attention to the avant-garde films of Kurt Kren, Rose Lowder and Robert Schaller tonight. Writes Lowder of her work, "Underlying these studies is a search for meaningful ways to work with film regarding our contemporary society controlled by multinational economics. As the totalitarian environments of urban landscapes become more and more uninhabitable, I seek, against the grain in our 'virtual' space age it seems, a more human physical home." The show - featuring projected 16mm film! - starts at 8:00 p.m.
Friday, March 16

The curators write of the film, "In an inventive and playful post-Godardian neo-noir riff, Angel City's loose narrative gives us both the satisfying shape of a hardboiled detective fiction, and a densely-layered lasagna of Hollywood trope mockery, gleefully disruptive textual asides and pure love for the cinematic form."
Saturday, March 17
The Melbourne-based dance company Chunky Move, founded in 1995, has built a reputation for creating genre-defying performances that often include various kinds of media.

The event starts at 8:00 p.m.
UCLA's tribute to acclaimed Soviet filmmaker Dziga Vertov continues tonight with a screening of Three Songs of Lenin, a film that H. G. Wells called "one of the greatest and most beautiful films I have ever seen." The screening begins at 7:30 p.m., and will include Vertov's Lullaby from 1937 as well. In this case, Vertov was commissioned to make a film that demonstrated Soviet attention to maternal care, and Vertov responded with a film containing 600 shots of women, with great attention to Stalin. "The film was shelved as soon as it was finished; rumor has it that Stalin was unhappy with the interminable images of him being smothered by all these women." The films will screen at the Billy Wilder Theater.

Elizabeth Taylor a feminist?
Yes, insists the charismatic cultural critic M.G. Lord, whose terrific new book The Accidental Feminist (Walker and Company, 2012) explores the ways in which the great actress "surreptitiously brought feminist issues to American audiences held captive by those violet eyes and epic beauty."]]> Lord, who teaches in the Professional Writing program at USC, has served as a regular contributor to The New York Times Book Review and the Times' Arts & Leisure section, and is the author of Forever Barbie: The Unauthorized Biography of a Real Doll, says that she came to this realization after spending a weekend with younger friends in Palm Springs watching selected titles from the actress' body of work. What she thought would be an evening of camp turned into a group epiphany as the women watched in awe as Taylor battled gender discrimination, addressed abortion, reveled in her own sexual desire and critiqued the institution of marriage. Many of Taylor's films, argues Lord, have "ahead-of-the-curve messages that made people squirm."
Lord takes us through these films decade by decade and film by film, with chapters dedicated to National Velvet, A Place in the Sun, Giant, Suddenly, Last Summer, BUtterfield 8, Cleopatra, The Sandpiper, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Ash Wednesday and The Little Foxes.
Lord also highlights the limitations imposed by the Production Code Administration, showing the struggle of director George Stevens who, in A Place in the Sun, tries to tell a tragic story of unwanted pregnancy and abortion without ever overtly mentioning either. The Production Code would plague Taylor's career, attempting to squelch all hints of sexuality, but in film after film, Taylor managed to subvert its prohibitions.
The book's history of film is deeply woven into Taylor's personal life. For example, Taylor married Mike Todd in 1957, a man who Lord says joined Taylor in wanting to override the logical response of viewers and instead engage our emotions as directly as possible. While Taylor achieved this through sensuous performance, Todd tried to do it through film technologies, investing first in the immersive Cinerama system, and then later in Smell-O-Vision, a technology designed to unite aroma and storytelling. Todd's death in 1958 prevented its success, however; his death also devastated the actress, who described Todd as "the love of my life."
The book concludes by describing Taylor's incredible work in the fight against AIDS; she helped start the American Foundation for AIDS Research, using her glamour and fame to fight the disease, which in the 1980s faced both stigma and critical neglect. Writes Lord, "From 1985 until her death, Taylor fought consciously - not accidentally - for social justice," and notes, "I believe her final role in life was influenced by the movies with feminist content that she starred in as a younger woman."
By the book's conclusion, it's difficult not to agree. Lord fills the book with page-turning stories and anecdotes, some hilarious, some tragic and many entirely gripping. Her writing style is fast-paced, humorous, and often arch, and the result is a book that is a total pleasure - almost a guilty pleasure - to read.
Lord will visit Diesel, A Bookstore in Brentwood on Thursday, February 23, 2012 at 7:00 p.m.]]>

The 1980s saw an explosion of fantastic video art as artists explored the possibilities of television as a form. Funding was abundant, shows celebrating new work were prevalent and there was a flurry of excitement around new short-form work. Many of the best experiments were music videos, with artists as varied as Laurie Anderson, Zbigniew Rybczyński and Dara Birnbaum creating innovative pieces that eschewed a focus on bands in action, preferring an emphasis on concepts, graphics, and visual innovation.]]> REDCAT will highlight these early experiments on Tuesday, February 7 at 8:30 p.m. in a show titled Music + Image, curated by L.A.-based artist Nancy Buchanan and presented in conjunction with Exchange and Evolution: Worldwide Video Long Beach, 1974-1999 at the Long Beach Museum of Art.
The show includes Anderson's wonderful O Superman, featuring the artist in a deceptively simple video that mixes performance and simple graphics to underscore the mechanization of the body alluded to in the lyrics, and to deliver an iconic language of the near future. Anderson managed to bridge the art world and pop culture with the song, which was a huge hit in 1981, and the video helped build her audience.
Cecilia Condit's Possibly in Michigan is less a music video and more a feminist genre-bending short that opens in a mall where two women are menaced by a man in a creepy mask. Riffing on soap operas and fairy tales, the video is by turns macabre and hilarious, a subversive take on classic - and highly gendered - archetypes.
With Wonder Woman, Dara Birnbaum might have inaugurated the critical remix as she appropriates footage of the dazzling TV heroine and repeats it for scrutiny. The technique is provocative, slowing the flow of TV to accommodate reflection, and creating a hybrid essay video that makes its argument purely through images and repetition.
Zbigniew Rybczynski's Imagine accompanies the song by John Lennon and features a long line of connected rooms which move two key characters through several stages of their lives. The lovely video showcases Rybczynski's fascination with structure and, again, is deceptively simple but conceptually brilliant.
Once in a Lifetime, also from 1981, features David Byrne and the famous Talking Heads track, with the singer, dressed in his characteristic black suit, moving jaggedly to the beat. His image is multiplied against a white background to create a powerful graphic sequence that captures the band's general gestalt.
Overall, this terrific show includes 14 videos from the late 1970s and 1980s, each an experiment with a different technique designed to push the boundaries of art video. Buchanan will attend in person, along with artists Max Almy, Toni Basil and Carole Ann Klonarides.]]>

Do you love kids and seeing them grow in their knowledge of Jesus? Then AWANA is the place for you. A weekly gathering of kids ages Pre-K to grade 6, AWANA helps kids develop a deeper knowledge of Jesus. Specifically, we are in need of a few people who would like to listen to the kids recite their memory verses each week, while helping them to learn about the Lord. This commitment is every Friday evening from 6:15 - 8:00 pm. Sign up by contacting the Office at the number below.
Beginning Thursday, September 11th! Click "Find Out More" for additional details.
The first in our series of four Discovery C.L.A.S.S.es (Calvary Life and Service Seminars), come discover what membership at CBC looks like! Sunday, September 29th from 12:30 - 3:30 pm in Fellowship Hall. Lunch provided. $5 per person.

Calvary's Food Pantry is in need of items. Any canned goods, pasta, quick prep meals in a box (non-perishable), cereals, snacks etc are needed to fill our food bags that we distribute to church families and families in the community who are in need. Each bag provides about a week's worth of food for 2 people and includes scriptural encouragement, ways to get connected with a church family in the community and gospel tracts. If you are able to help with this need, simply drop off the items you would like to donate at the Main Office between 10:00 am and 3:00 pm Monday through Thursday.
This life changing seminar focuses on "What is your purpose in life?" The goal of the seminar is for each person to discover his or her life "purpose in one word." Through a 4-step process, many will be able to learn to articulate their life purpose statement in 15 words or less. Insights will be gained, e.g.: What am I to do with my life? How do the key events in my life shape me regarding who I am today? What is the Big Need I see in the world? What is my Big Dream to solve the Big Need that I see?

A Mishawaka DARE officer's ride just got a big makeover.
They took what was a plain white car and decked it out with custom graphics - highlighting this year's new anti-drug theme: Score With Your Natural High.
Lieutenant Williams says the car will help reinforce his teachings outside the classroom.
"I actually have a saying on the bottom of my DARE t-shirts that we want you to make a change in a child's life," Williams said. "But this can make a change in several children's lives."
Lieutenant Williams also says the extra lights and eye-catching design will grab the attention of young kids.
He hopes it will help older students remember his message too.

Jim Steed, owner of Steed's Dairy Farm explains, "without them, we wouldn't be here. So, we try to do everything we can for our military men and women."
Each time Steed and his family open the gates of their 15 acre agricultural playground, he says the stars and stripes are on their mind.
"We give a military discount all year. And we also have different things going on with Ft. Gordon when they have service men and women deployed out or they're coming back in," he adds.
Coming back they're met with discounted fun-filled adventures. For the fourth year, Steed is offering a corn maize, live stock, and a kids' zip line to CSRA service members.
Army veteran, Tina Marie Hicks, Army Veteran, tells News Channel 6's Tyrone McCoy "I hope they continue to thank us and appreciate us for what we've done.'
Tina Marie says this is the second year she's brought her daughter out to the farm. She goes on to say places like Steed's Dairy offering military discounts all year are few and far between.
"I don't feel like enough big activities do that. Enough restaurants do it, but they should do that more often. They honor them on Veteran's Day. Maybe they should do it more often throughout the year," Hicks explains.
So, as veterans fight for our freedom year round, Steed says it's important to give what he can to those who have given so much
Steed leaves with "they really do a big service to all of us and without them we couldn't do what we do here."
Again, Veterans Day is tomorrow. Thank you to all of the men, women, and their families who sacrifice so much for the our country.
