The Issue (Identities & Issues in Literature)
Slavery existed in North America almost from the beginning of British colonization, but by the late 1700's it was largely confined to the South. The historian Peter Kolchin argues in his book American Slavery: 1619-1877 (1993) that this condition was a result of the Southern states' agricultural economy; the slave as farm laborer was a far more intrinsic part of the Southern economy than of the industrial and manufacturing economies of the North. As one part of the nation grew to rely more on slaves while another region prospered without forced servitude, the issue of slavery became an increasingly heated national debate. The slave trade was outlawed in 1808, and by the 1840's the abolitionist movement was gaining strength. Significantly, this movement coincided with a surge in American thinking and writing, encompassing the American Transcendentalist movement of the 1830's and 1840's and with the first publication of the American novelists Nathaniel Hawthorne and Herman Melville. As America began to establish its own identity through original literature and ideas, the question of whether or not it was to be a nation of slaveholders became more pressing.
Before the Civil War (Identities & Issues in Literature)
Much of the writing about slavery before the Civil War took the form of sermons and pamphlets, and most was done by whites; the writing of African Americans consisted largely of autobiographical slave narratives rather than fiction or poetry. While the poetry of the New England slave Phillis Wheatley was widely acclaimed during the 1770's, much of it is religious or devotional rather than political, and she rarely writes explicitly of her position as an enslaved African. The poet James Russell Lowell's The Biglow Papers (1848) include satirical antislavery poems, but slavery has largely been the subject of the novel rather than the poem. The first significant antislavery novel is Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin: Or, Life Among the Lowly (1852).
Uncle Tom's Cabin became an almost instant best-seller and significantly increased abolitionist sentiment in the United States. It is primarily the story of the slave, Tom, who is sold from a Kentucky farm to a kind master (Augustine St. Clare) in New Orleans and then, upon St. Clare's death, to the evil plantation owner Simon Legree. The novel concludes with Tom being whipped to death and looking heavenward. While Stowe presumably intended Tom's last act as a symbol of the goodness of the slave and the hypocrisy of proslavery Christians, the term "Uncle Tom" has come to mean one who is submissive to whites. Stowe's secondary plot, concerning the escape of...

After the Civil War (Identities & Issues in Literature)
After the Civil War, slavery became the subject of much fiction, written at first largely by whites but later also by African Americans. Of the nineteenth century novels, the most significant is Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884). In some ways Jim, the runaway slave and friend of Huck, continues the representation of stereotypical views of African Americans; he generally submits to Huck and is superstitious rather than rational. Yet he and Huck also develop a friendship, and Huck learns to see him as a person rather than an object. The novel's view of African American identity is a complex and sometimes contradictory one, painting slavery as evil on one hand, yet using the character of Jim for comedy on the other. A second significant work of the late nineteenth century is George Washington Cable's The Grandissimes (1880), a novel about New Orleans in 1803 that depicts slavery as barbarous and cruel.
In the twentieth century two significant works by white writers are William Faulkner's Absalom, Absalom! (1936) and William Styron's The Confessions of Nat Turner (1967). The former novel, like much of Faulkner's work, deals in part with the destruction and ruin of the South after the Civil War. In the portion of the narrative that takes place before the war, Faulkner writes of the difficult relationship between slaves and the poor whites of the South. The novel itself is a novel of identity; it has as its crux the discovery that a white man is partially of African descent. Styron's historical novel re-creates...

Identity and Slavery (Identities & Issues in Literature)
Slavery's relationship to identity is a complex one, for African Americans and for white Southerners. African Americans during slavery had to create their identities in a culture in which they did not have ownership or control over their own bodies, in which their families were broken up by the slave trade, and in which they were not treated as human. As generations of slaves were born on American soil, African names, customs, religions, and languages disappeared, leaving the slaves with few ways of shaping identity outside the world of the slaveholders.
Two particular components of slavery that affected identity were color and names. Many of the slave states had rigid rules concerning proportion of African blood; a person having one-sixteenth African and fifteen-sixteenths European ancestry could still be considered black and so barred from any of the legal rights that whites had. Autobiographical slave narratives and fiction often deal with the white slave. A slave who looked white not only had a better chance of escaping but was often treated differently—being assigned to the house rather than the field, for example. In the early twentieth century, a white skin provided access to better jobs and greater opportunity in general, and passing became the subject of literature such as Nella Larsen's Passing (1929) or Jessie Redmon Fauset's Plum Bun (1929). The question of the relationship between racial identity and actual skin...

Parent involvement
The academics at the school are fantastic. I have no complaints as far as that is concerned. As for the student base, well, that's an entirely different story. The kids are absolutely cruel to one another. There is hardly a day that goes by that my children don't come home from school in tears because the bullying situation is wildly out of control. Because of that, I will be moving my children. If they can't feel comfortable in their own skin, then they can't focus all their energy on learning. If you don't care about your child's mental & emotional status, then by all means, send them to Avon Middle School North!

Mad Men
TV News: 'Game of Thrones,' '30 Rock' Lead Familiar 2013 Emmy Nominations
Submitted by BrianTT on July 18, 2013 - 8:38amCHICAGO – While there were a few nice surprises (Vera Farmiga! Laura Dern!), the 2013 Emmy nominations were a largely predictable bunch, including most of the nominees from last year, including "Breaking Bad," "Homeland," "Downton Abbey," "Mad Men," "Modern Family," and many more.
TV Review: Characters of 'Mad Men' Getting Lost in Changing World
Submitted by BrianTT on April 7, 2013 - 11:21amCHICAGO – Don Draper (Jon Hamm) is no longer the most popular person in the room. Time, depression, alcoholism, and the changing politics have altered this character, once such a vital force of human nature. Remember the days when everything Don said hit with the client? When he could juggle secret pasts and multiple mistresses? One of the most prominent arcs of "Mad Men" overall has been how that Don is fading away as the '60s head toward the next decade.
TV Feature: The 10 Best TV Shows of 2012
Submitted by BrianTT on January 2, 2013 - 4:07pmCHICAGO – Zombies. Dragons. Gangsters. Meth dealers. David Lynch. It was a weird year for television. Was it a good year? Sorta. It was nowhere near the landmark year of 2011 but there was still a lot to like and it was easy to get to 30 shows worth mentioning.
Blu-ray Review: Strong Release For Fifth Season of 'Mad Men'
Submitted by BrianTT on November 1, 2012 - 2:13pmCHICAGO – It may feel like the bloom is off the rose a little bit for "Mad Men" as the AMC hit has seen some of its acclaim stolen by other cable hits like "Breaking Bad," "Homeland," and "The Walking Dead." And yet this is still a great show with yet another stellar Blu-ray season release from Lionsgate. Complete with commentaries and interesting special features, this release is in keeping with the stellar first four season releases for this multi-Emmy-Award winner.
TV Feature: Predictions For the 64th Annual Emmy Awards Winners
Submitted by BrianTT on September 22, 2012 - 11:12amCHICAGO – The 64th Annual Emmy Awards will go down on Sunday night and this year promises to be more unpredictable than ever…unless it's not. While most pundits are thinking that this is the year that the Academy will take risks and award new blood, there's just as much of a chance that we'll see as many repeat winners as ever, maybe more.
TV Review: Strong Cast Drives AMC's Inconsistent 'Hell on Wheels'
Submitted by BrianTT on August 12, 2012 - 10:32amCHICAGO – Do you know what separates AMC from a majority of networks? The art of the ensemble. The multi-Emmy-winning casts of "Mad Men" and "Breaking Bad" are the bars against which most current dramas are measured. There were issues with some of the writing behind "The Killing" but no one ever complained about the performances. And it's the people of "The Walking Dead" that keep it interesting.
TV Feature: When 2012 Emmy Nominees Will Be on Blu-ray, DVD
Submitted by BrianTT on July 26, 2012 - 3:03pmCHICAGO – You've surely heard the 2012 Emmy nominations by now (and probably read our choices for the biggest snubs) and maybe you're wondering how to rent or own the chosen favorites of the Academy. Let us guide the way.

If I Had an Emmy Ballot: The Best TV of 2011 to 2012
Submitted by BrianTT on June 25, 2012 - 12:39pmCHICAGO – So you're an Academy voter who has put off filling out your ballot for the 2011-12 season. I understand. It's been a ridiculously tough year for me to pick and choose my dream nominees for the major categories and my votes don't even count. Maybe you want some help? We're all about charity here. As someone who's seen more TV in the last year than most people do in their lives, let me guide the way.
Interview: Joel Murray Takes No Prisoners in 'God Bless America'

He has established himself as a memorable TV and movie character actor, and portrays a man gone wild in the Bobcat Goldthwait-directed "God Bless America."

There are contraindications! Be sure to consult your doctor before taking any medication!
Tetraciclina - Tetraciclina is a broad spectrum polyketide antibiotic produced by the Streptomyces genus of Actinobacteria. It exerts a bacteriostatic effect on bacteria by binding reversible to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit and blocking incoming aminoacyl tRNA from binding to the ribosome acceptor site. It also binds to some extent to the bacterial 50S ribosomal subunit and may alter the cytoplasmic membrane causing intracellular components to leak from bacterial cells.
Indication: Used to treat bacterial infections such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, typhus fever, tick fevers, Q fever, rickettsialpox and Brill-Zinsser disease. May be used to treat infections caused by Chlamydiae spp., B. burgdorferi (Lyme disease), and upper respiratory infections caused by typical (S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, and M. catarrhalis) and atypical organisms (C. pneumoniae, M. pneumoniae, L. pneumophila). May also be used to treat acne. Tetraciclina may be an alternative drug for people who are allergic to penicillin.
Tetraciclina is a short-acting antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth by inhibiting translation. It binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit and prevents the amino-acyl tRNA from binding to the A site of the ribosome. It also binds to some extent to the 50S ribosomal subunit. This binding is reversible in nature. Additionally Tetraciclina may alter the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria causing leakage of intracellular contents, such as nucleotides, from the cell.

Rated 2 / 5 stars June 22, 2011
Maybe it was just me, more than likely was. However, I didn't quite get the joke here, was it just him making a diary about completely unrealistic, random crap, and then stating it WAS realistic?? I don't know, maybe I didn't quite grasp the joke as well as others, but this didn't quite interest me, and I thought it was just a little too short for my tastes. One thing I gotta hand to you though, I thought the animation was quite well done, and it ran smoothly. So well done on animation! :)
Well it was basically a short explanotary episode of what I'm hoping to do

I'd like to welcome you to the 20th century. Here, we have this thing-a-ma-whatsit called a Wi-Fi Hotspot. The way it works is when you need data but don't want to burn your plan, you connect to it and like magic, you can do whatever you want.
Back on a serious track...I don't play with my phone constantly. I'm at work, focused on my job, for basically 12 hours a day, 5 days a week and some weekends. My phone is used to occasionally check email, and as I drive home, listen to music or get directions to some store or something. That's it. On the weekends if I am at home (which I usually am), I'm on my home wireless which is 50Mbps/5Mbps, so it blows past 4G anyway. For any serious searching or streaming, I'm using a computer for the larger screen that it offers.
People who burn more than 5GB a month ON THEIR PHONE are doing something wrong. I'm sorry.
That said...I do not support this change by Verizon simply because the CFO himself basically admitted they're doing it for greed and profit, not because of any bandwidth limitation or anything like that, but just because they want more money out of people. My question is why they don't charge for other services and get smarter about how they charge?
Stop charging for Visual Voicemail, offer it free when you take advantage of a higher rate plan than the base $39.99 plan.
Give people the choice of a metered plan that has a fixed minimum and maximum allowance per month. So you charge $5/GB, minimum 2GB charged per month, for a 10GB plan. $3/GB, minimum 5GB charged per month, for a 20GB plan. $2/GB, minimum 20GB charged, for a 50GB plan. You pay for what you use, but you cannot go over whatever your selected maximum is. Then the hogs can't go over 50GB (which I SERIOUSLY cannot fathom from a phone) and the grandmas of the world have a neat and tidy $10/month bill for data.

49th Ann Arbor Film Fest shines a spotlight on experimental films
The 49th annual Ann Arbor Film Festival kicks off Tuesday, March 22 at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor.
It's the longest running independent and experimental film festival in the country.
So while you won't see a George Clooney flick at the festival, you could catch a documentary about industrial music, or a two minute short about London street life filmed using an iPhone.
Donald Harrison is the festival's executive director. He says "we're seeing a lot of different approaches to telling stories or to working within the art form, and that's very much what our festival's been about for 49 years."
More than 180 films will be screened during the six-day festival. Harrison says about 15,000 people are expected to attend the festival, which ends Sunday, Mar. 27.
You can see the full Ann Arbor Film Festival schedule here.

10. Re: Disable auto aim
JSlayer211 Jun 26, 2012 12:10 PM (in response to jwaller123)You sure post alot for things that "don't mean a thing" to you.
11. Re: Disable auto aim
starbuckfrack Jun 26, 2012 12:16 PM (in response to JSlayer211)AIM ASSIST really only is needed when someone is hiding behind something. If its a wall you usually cant kill them unless the wall is thin.
It really serves no other purpose and doesnt take place over skill. Its basically meaningless.
If someone is hiding behind a tree Aim Assist isnt the problem. The problem is that the player saw you going behind the tree or you arent playing "war" properly.
12. Re: Disable auto aim
JSlayer211 Jun 26, 2012 12:17 PM (in response to kidmiestro)http://www.callofduty.com/message/106050632
OMG you are right! I thought the option to disable it worked online. Forced aim assist /facepalm
Skill has officially left the building if this is what gamers are building around.
13. Re: Disable auto aim
WKMMS Jun 26, 2012 12:23 PM (in response to JSlayer211)aim assist exists on consoles because of the massive difference in accuracy offered with thumbsticks versus a mouse. Most people play these games for fun rather than as some test of skill. Aim-assist benefits us all equally so we're on a level playing field in that respect. There's no real "skill" involved in these games in terms of the game mechanics, but rather in the tactics you use, map knowledge, positioning, use of cover etc
14. Re: Disable auto aim
JSlayer211 Jun 26, 2012 12:22 PM (in response to starbuckfrack)Anything done on a competitive level should not have assistance involved. There wasn't an aim assist for Michael Jordan when he was winning his rings. It was his own honed skills and abilities that proved the test to be the best.
Using aim assist as a pathfinder through walls is bogus imo, not something that is NEEDED as you put it.
15. Re: Disable auto aim
jwaller123 Jun 26, 2012 12:26 PM (in response to JSlayer211)Yep I do. Thanks for noticing, but subjects such as this is just about someone who got killed by something in the game they dislike. I get killed by things I dislike all the time. Difference between you and me is that I do not come to the forums to say that it does not belong. If you don't like aim assist then you should take the advice you gave to iGotBombKush....Turn it off.
16. Re: Disable auto aim
Screwyounoob Jun 26, 2012 12:51 PM (in response to WKMMS)Aim assist should go I actually tried to turn mine off today through my profile. It's still on tho.
I was fed up of it screwing me over when target prioritising.
It would increase the level of skill needed if it was turned off as at the moment it slows the crosshairs speed down when near a target. And it helps quick scoping.
17. Re: Disable auto aim
iGotBombKush Jun 26, 2012 12:55 PM (in response to JSlayer211)Calm down, it was a joke.
18. Re: Disable auto aim
starbuckfrack Jun 26, 2012 1:11 PM (in response to JSlayer211)Micheal Jordan isnt a video game.
With aim assist in "professional MW3 games" everything is still equal.
Everyone has it.
As I said if you find yourself hiding behind something and you get killed due to aim assist then that is your fault.
What you are sounding like is some camper who gets killed and blames aim assist becuase you cant camp.
19. Re: Disable auto aim
JSlayer211 Jun 26, 2012 1:21 PM (in response to jwaller123)Read the rest of the thread /sigh.You can't turn it off.

Anton Khudobin waited patiently for his chance to get back out on NHL ice. He got his first chance to do that since April 5 on Monday night, and he didn't disappoint.
The absence of Tim Thomas meant that Tuukka Rask would get a chance to show what he could do as the starter. It also meant that Khudobin, who has spent most of his Bruins career in Providence, would also get a chance to prove his worth, albeit as Rask's backup.
Claude Julien has said over and over that Khudobin would need to be ready, especially in a shortened season. He proved Monday night that he was ready, as the 26-year-old was very effective in the Bruins' 5-3 win.
Khudobin wasn't as sharp as he was in that April 5 start against Ottawa where he stopped 44 of 45 shots he faced against the Senators, but he was still very effective against a potentially potent Carolina offense.
He let in the three goals, but that was more of a byproduct of what happened in front of him more than anything else.
He was left in a vulner...

The reason that a ball would be valuable is if it is involved in setting some sort of record or breaking some historical landmark statistic (i.e. 500/600/700th HR, someone's 3000th hit, etc.). While an unassisted triple-play is quite rare, it's hardly a record or an historic achievement, IMO. Also, the last one is already in the HOF, so they probably wouldn't be that interested in having another ball for the exact same thing.
Plus, it holds pretty much no prestige compared to record setting memorabilia. Imagine telling someone, "this ball was involved in the 14th unassisted triple-play in MLB history." Doesn't have quite the same ring as, "this is the ball that (insert name here) hit to break the all-time HR record."
To me, this baseball would rank slightly above a foul ball I might catch at any MLB game in terms of value.

'The Amazing Race 14' Aftergasm: Another Solid Season, Another Deserving Winner
Monday, May 11, 2009
The Amazing Race is a show whose appeal comes not from the competition, as would ostensibly be assumed. It's a travelogue first, a character piece second, and a competition third. Rarely is a reality competition show grounded in the actual competition. Survivor probably comes closest. The Amazing Race has the inherent urgency of actually being an epic, you know, race, but every season the inevitable occurs - the winners jog onto that final mat, the previously vanquished teams applauding with overwrought, prodded emotions, and it's never as triumphant as it should be. The end is a relief for the racers, who stand on the brink of exhaustion and madness. Tammy and Victor were the best racers of the season by a long-shot. They were the smartest, the least scared, the only ones who spoke Chinese and, despite any minor squabbles they had early in the season, benefited from being brother and sister. Sibling relationships are the strongest, the most trusting, even if it doesn't always seem like it. Even if you weren't great big fans of the two, they deserved the over-sized million dollar check they walked away with last night.
Here's the thing about siblings (and I would know, being the oldest of four kids): the siblings who are actually closest to one another, the ones who really love each other, are the ones who fight. If you see siblings who are relatively near one another in age and remain overly polite, you can bet that they aren't all that close. The ability to fight, make fun, push each other's buttons, and make up quickly are the signs of great sibling relationships. While the editing may have shown Victor to be dick-ish to his sister at times, this isn't necessarily a sign of a strained relationship. On the contrary, it shows the strength of the sibling bond, a strength that was borne out in their eventual win.
Jaime and Cara have inspired much disgust from the general public. They certainly deserve some of it. More than once, the cheerleaders made comments straight from the Ugly American handbook. Xenophobic and short-sighted, they often complained about different cultures, the language barrier and the ineptitude of their native hosts. As a seasoned traveler, though, I must play Devil's Advocate. While they did say insensitive things during the race, they probably didn't mean everything they said. When abroad, frustration sets in through no fault of anybody. If your cab driver, who can't understand a word you say, cannot find your destination, you are going to get pissed off. Who's to blame? No one, of course, but when you are sleep-deprived, hungry and desperate to stay alive for the million dollar prize, the human reaction is to blame somebody. So, you blame the one person you can - the innocent cab driver. In every other situation, Jaime and Cara struck me as decent individuals. I could be wrong, and the two ladies might very well be legitimately stuck-up people, but I'd be willing to wager against it.
Margie and Luke became the water cooler team on The Amazing Race 14, mostly because Luke was the very first deaf contestant to compete on the race. When discussing someone like Luke, you must tread carefully, because we all have a tendency to get offended. But, just because a person is deaf, it doesn't all of a sudden make them a great person. Luke isn't a bad guy, but he wasn't one of my favorites. For me, he was an overly sensitive, overly emotional, seemingly coddled individual. He was a very good competitor, and proved a more than capable racer. He did emerge as something of a drama queen, however, and amid his skirmish with Kisha and Jen, I unapologetically took the side of the sisters. Again, he's definitely not a bad guy, but he wasn't a saint either. Margie was similar, a flawed but ultimately quality human being. I have trouble criticizing someone who is very clearly a great and supportive mother, so I'll stop here. They gave a great fight this season, and were a couple of surfboards away from winning the million dollars.
All in all, a solid season from The Amazing Race. We've come to expect no less from TV's most decorated reality show, and it continued to remain interesting even in its fourteenth iteration, which is no small beans. You have to be something special to keep yourself viable after so many seasons.

BoshJeeples doesn't currently have any campaigns.
BoshJeeples's Bio
My name is Josh Peebles, I am currently 31 and work for the FAA at the MMAC in Oklahoma City. I didn't play a tabletop RPG until I was 29, when I started a D&D4E campaign that is still going. We take a lot of breaks. My love for gaming encompasses pretty much anything you can apply the term "game" to, from cards to RPGs to alternate reality, as long as you have to use your brain. Without doubt, I've put more hours into turn-based strategy games such as Master of Orion 2 and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series than any other genre — maybe all other genres combined. They tend to draw me in without mercy.
As for tabletop RPGs, I've played D&D4e, Pathfinder, Dragon Age, and Warhammer. I love high fantasy and space sci-fi, and would jump at the chance to join a well-organized game reasonably close to me. I could probably host a game, but don't know if I'm up to GMing at this point.

Ziegfeld Theatre
141 West 54th Street,
New York,
106 people favorited this theater
Showing 3,901 - 3,923 of 3,923 comments
Sorry for the misspelling of Walter Reade, but it has been a long time since I have seen his name in print. Other premiers I saw during the 1970's at this theatre were THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT & TOMMY.
Walter Reade (not Reed) was a pioneer movie exhibitor. By the time of the building of the new Ziegfeld, he had died and the circuit was run by his son, Walter Reade, Jr., who later died in middle age in a skiing accident. During the son's lifetime, the company also ran Continental Distributing, Inc., which acquired and released "foreign" films for showings in art theatres.
I was there on the opening day of the theatre. They showed a few movies dealing with Ziegfeld. Included was "The Great Ziegfeld," and "The Ziegfeld Follies." A reception was held in the concession area where champagne was served. Many of the original Ziegfeld "girls" attended. Although senior citizens, they still maintained a poise & beauty that singled them out from the average woman…I also saw Lowell Thomas introduced in the theatre when they showed his "This Is Cinerama." It was owned by Walter Reed Theatres for a while. One should put this beautiful movie theatre in perspective and not get carried away, comparing it to other theatres.
Robert, you're killing me. I'm getting bent all out of shape by what I missed. Why couldn't anybody save it? It was so recent. There is nothing left in NY!
The saddest thing of all to me was UA's moronic closing of Cinema 150 in Syosset. It put the Zeigfeld to shame with a huge dimension 150 screen. It was totally renovated in the early 90's with all new seats, drapes, carpet, screen and lighting. They never advertised the theatre for what it was. I introduced friends in Manhattan to the place and they used to travel on the LIRR after that to see films there.
The current Ziegfeld Theatre is a joke in comparison to the original one, which was designed by Joseph Urban and Thomas Lamb and first opened in February,1927 with the namesake producer's stage musical, "Rio Rita," followed later that year by "Show Boat." The 1,600-seat auditorium broke convention by being egg-shaped, with the stage opening at the narrow end. A huge and exquisitely-colored mural, "The Joy of Life," a stylized version of a medieval tapestry, covered the ceiling and side walls. To pay for its $2.5 million cost, Ziegfeld had to borrow from newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst, who took control of the theatre when the producer died in 1932. Hearst rashly leased the Ziegfeld to Loew's Theatres, which for nearly ten years ran it as a movie house. Due to its location on the west side of Sixth Avenue between 54th and 55th Streets, the Ziegfeld was considered too far from the Broadway-Times Square theatre district for first-run product, so Loew's showed double features with program changes twice a week. Finally, in 1943, producer Billy Rose bought the Ziegfeld and returned it to stage plays, also repairing whatever damage Loew's had done to the interior decor. After more failures than hits, from 1955-63 Rose leased the theatre to NBC for use as a TV studio. Rose then once more tried stage bookings, but in 1965, the short-lived "Anya" proved the Ziegfeld's last attraction. Rose decided to sell the property to a real estate developer. Ironically, he died while negotiations were going on, but his executors finally made a deal for $17.1 million with Fisher Brothers, which demolished the Ziegfeld in September,1966 to make way for an office tower.
A friend in LA saw all of the Cinerama revivials at The Dome some were 3 projector also. New York always seems like a step child for film. When is the last time anyone played 70mm? Although they are not as frequent anymore LA has had a few recent 70mm engagements.
You're lucky you missed it it was lousy. One strip Cinerama and no curtain. Maybe some day NY will present a restored 3 strip Cinerama print. I mean NY has not see this in 40 years what are we waiting for? Must we fly to Seattle? Where are all the influential film lovers who can make this work? Maybe all they want to do is go to the Angelica. By the way I wish I could have seen SOM at the Rivoli.
I'm sure there was not. I remember when I was a kid it was a big family outing when we all went to the Rivoli to see "The Sound of Music" with my parents and both grandmothers. How special those roadshows were. The only real place that compares at all is Radio City Music Hall and I cant remember the last time they had a movie or premiere there. I dont know why I missed "This is Cinerama" when the Ziegfeld first opened, I have always wanted to see this and doubt they will ever go to the trouble to run it again.
Well it was pretty heart breaking when the restored Lawrence of Arabia and My Fair Lady were playing at the Ziegfeld and the Criterion was sitting there in Times Square all chopped and falling apart. And this was at one time the top booking for the biggest films. I kept thinking why don't they turn the Ziegfeld into a Toys R Us and restore one of New Yorks great buildings. This was also one of New Yorks greatest blocks with the stupendous advertisements that floated and blinked above the Criterion day and night. Now these ads are straight from Tokyo and don't have a thing to do with NY.
When I saw Funny Girl at the Ziegfeld there seemed to be 20 minutes of ads before the film. I wonder if this happened when it first played the Criterion…
I agree 100% not one of the real Broadway palaces survived even though many were open into the eighties or ninties. When you think of what was there and destroyed, The Rivoli, The Warner Cinerama, The Capitol, Loews State, The Criterion, The Paramount and to a lesser degree the Strand and DeMille. I am sure I am forgetting some but unlike other cities that have restored at least one palace, NY tears them down. Remember a few years ago when they had the idea to build above Radio City and keep the theate intact? Why could that idea not have been used for The Rivoli or State?
The Zieglfeld and the Astor Plaza were always a pale copy of the great NY cinemas. It's a great shame that they survived and the Rivoli, the Criterion, and the Warner Cinerama(Strand) were torn down. And this well after there was supposed to have been a renewed interest in historic theaters.
Went to a revival screening of "Funny Girl" here not too long ago…and during the intermission (remember those??), I laughed at the realization that it was the perfect place to see this film, as not only is Flo Ziegfeld portrayed in the film by Walter Pidgeon, but as previous posting writer Ed Salerno wrote, the antique programs of the Ziegfeld shows are behind glass in the lobby, and one can find the listings for Fanny Brice in some of them! Going back for the rest of the film after intermission, it was like having absorbed a DVD supplementary program!
An odd personal side note: the night John Lennon was killed less than 20 blocks north, I passed the rear of the theater that has its own vertical marquee, and the Ziegfeld was showing "Rock Show", a little known Paul McCartney concert film! I was drunk on sake from a nearby sushi bar, when i took in Paul's hitting-a-note look on the poster…and then i got home to the news. Freaky! (I think the film only showed that week.)
To clarify just a bit further, the concession area and theater entrance are indeed one level up.
Once on the second level, the main auditorium is accessed through two short passageways just adjacent to the concession area. The passageways flow to the left and right, wrapping around the balcony seating area.
At their opposite ends, the passageways stop at the foot of the balcony seating, and from here, the auditorium slowly descends towards the large screen, which, presumably, is located at or near ground level.
(The open plaza that Ed mentioned is formed in part by the right wall of the auditorium.)
The Ziegfeld is NOT underground. The lobby is at ground level and the theater is one level up.
Still a great place to see a movie and one of the all-too-few premier "opening night" theaters remaining in the city (the other being the similarly modern but plush Loew's Astor Plaza on West 44th). It features a very large yet simple streamlined modern auditorium with none of the baroque architectural flourishes of the classic movie palaces. Like the Astor Plaza, the balcony rises at the back of the theater, rather than being vaulted over the orchestra seats. Also like the Astor Plaza, the theater is located underground with the large structure visible from street level serving as a spacious lobby area. The seats are plush, red velvet and the giant screen is concealed behind a heavy curtain that still opens and closes between each showing.
Vintage photos and programs line the walls of the upper and lower lobbies, depicting former Ziegfield shows and performers from the roaring days of the famed Follies at the New Amsterdam and Selwyn Theaters on 42nd street. Sound and projection are state of the art.
The theater is on West 54th Street (an adjacent open plaza stretches to West 55th) just west of 6th Avenue on the north-east fringe of the theater district in midtown Manhattan.
I will be in New York from mon dec9 thru dec 13 and wanted to know if you will be previewing a movie that week . we always see a movie at your theatre. Please let me know thanks
is the Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets premiere going to be in ziegfeld? if so how much is the ticket, and when is it?
Can Someone help me a friend of me said something about "The famous yellow letters appeared in the Ziegfeld Theatre" and i gotta find out what it means
In February 1983 I was almost stuck in the Ziegfeld overnight. It was after a showing of GANDHI while a blizzard was socking New York. I was considering asking the Ziegfeld staff if I could sleep in the theater instead of going out into the brutal storm. I always regretted not having done it! New York's best theater by far.
Originally planned for Cinerama but it was only installed briefly for THIS IS CINERAMA (70mm version) from 11 May 1973 until 12 August 1973

WICHITA, Kan.–AgTrax, the leading provider of integrated agribusiness software in the Midwest, has partnered with Sullivan Higdon & Sink (SHS) to further develop their brand and introduce their latest comprehensive software product, TraxView.
The company, based in Hutchinson, Kan., is known for its commitment to service and innovation. In considering SHS as their agency partner, AgTrax found a similarly aligned passion for standing out from the flock. "I knew we wanted an agency that would look at our needs outside the typical agriculture environment. After meeting the team, we were convinced SHS was the right agency to help us develop AgTrax, a rapidly evolving organization with a unique product offering," said Chuck Jenkins, director of marketing and sales with AgTrax.
To begin the new partnership, SHS conducted an audit of the company's current marketing and communications efforts, and then completed new brand standards and creative elements.
The first phase of work included logo development for both AgTrax and TraxView, a website update and new collateral. The program of work includes a total website refresh in 2013, as well as upgrades to trade show materials.
To meet AgTrax's desire to remain cutting edge within their ever-changing industry, SHS will also be offering public relations support and media planning.
"We're very eager to immerse ourselves in the agribusiness industry and help the AgTrax brand go from great to remarkable," said Tom Bertels. "We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with yet another strong B-to-B company as it offers essential support along the food value chain."

Courageous: Exclusive Collector's Edition, DVD 5 Stars Out Of 5 371 ReviewsSave 15%Video
The Scriptures are filled with examples of marvelous fathers, from Jesse, the father of David, to Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus. But the Bible also tells of the incest of Lot, the drunkenness of Noah, the adultery of David, and the pagan indulgences of Solomon. When fathers fail to follow the will of their own Heavenly Father, the results are disastrous. This novel shows that such rules and guidance are still applicable to today. As four contemporary cops try to curb the drug trafficking, street violence, and drive-by shootings in Georgia, they discover that most of these crimes are caused by boys who grew up without strong male role models, without proper family discipline, and without manly love and protection.
This book is based on the script used by Sherwood Baptist Church Productions, the creators of Facing the Giants and Fireproof, in filming the movie version of Courageous. This books plot, character development, and life applications are all excellent. The heart-pounding twists and affirming story lessons make it a hard one to put down. Due to the drug references and gang violence, this story is appropriate for older readers, namely teens and adults. Because of the terrific story and deep biblical applications, I highly recommend Courageous. Molly Anderson, www.ChristianBookPreviews.com

The 1999 vintage of S.L.V. is one of the smallest in the last 20 years, for it marks the beginning of the rejuvenation of our original estate vineyard. First planted by the Winiarski family in 1970, by the late 1990's S.L.V. had passed middle age, and vine disease and diminished vigor were beginning to take a toll. Beginning in 1999 we started a multi-year program of replanting partial blocks of the vineyard. It will take several years for the process to be completed and for S.L.V. to return to full strength. Until that time, we are devoting extra man-hours to nurturing and harvesting grapes that meet the standards of the S.L.V label, and declassifying much of the fruit to other Cabernet programs.
The 1999 vintage offers aromas of raspberries and plums, evolving into rosemary, allspice and rosewater before the mouth is seduced by a bounty of cherries, raspberries, and cassis. Yet, the fruit is nestled amid fragrant star anise and cedar, underlining the elegant balance of "fire" and "water." Serve with pork tenderloin, pan-seared and then roasted with apples and fresh garden herbs, or a creamy ragout of wild mushrooms over homemade fettuccini.

It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making.

(cab-uhr-NAY sow-veeh-yawn) King of Red Many refer to Cabernet Sauvignon as the king of red grapes.

... all things that I had considered before coming to Honduras. Recently, however I realized on privilege that I never would have thought about if Telma Raquel, a second grader, had never stopped by our apartment while shopping in the center of town with her mom.
Walking up to our third story apartment was her first time ever being in a building with more than one story. I only witnessed her reaction after she made it up the ...
Mira, Escucha! The Sights and Sounds of Cof
... by gringos (Americans). But I love the company.
Nonetheless, I really do love this place. Most of the people I have met here have some of the biggest hearts. And even the sights and sounds, although sometimes annoying, are part of what makes this place Cofradia and I wouldn't want it any other way.
This post is lacking in photos because most of the things mentioned cannot be easily photographed. I will probably fill up that void with pictures of cute kids, enjoy! ...
Teaching and Tutoring
... which is the tub of clean water that we use to wash our clothes. I know, I know. Gross, right? I can just see you guys cringing. But, I love it. Such a simple life. All we care about here is the basic necessities. I rarely look in the mirror. I never wear makeup. My fingernails are a disaster. I rarely shave my legs. I am covered in a constant coat of sweat. Watch out, boys. I am dead sexy.
Espero que puedo escribir mas en el futuro. Quizas. Hasta luego.

text: Demand: We want a Shadow Hearts HD collectionYou know what roleplaying series kicked arse on the PlayStation 2? Shadow Hearts! You know what series deserves to be remastered in HD for the PS3's "Classics" line? Shadow Hearts! You know it makes sense. Shadow Hearts was never the most refined series, but its dark and often bizarre storyline, combined with an engaging turn-based battle system, made it a firm favorite with myself and many others. It had a really good, unique soundtrack and the first two games especially rank among my favorite Japanese RPGs. If I could pick an unsung series for an HD upgrade, it'd most certainly be Shadow Hearts. Publisher Aruze mostly makes gambling games for arcades these days, but I'm sure it could make a bit of coin in getting this made. Let it officially be known that the DEMAND is there! Did you know?

10m. A nicely varied climb that starts up the rightward trending layback flake to reach a finger crack, follow this passing to the left of a ledge and finishing up a short groove. USER COMMENTSNo comments on this route. Login to your ROCKFAX account to add your comments - Search for comments. |

text: Manderava Show all reviews | Joy by Jean PatouAnother Marilyn Monroe fragrance that I wanted to love but can't even bring myself to apply. It's just the wrong kind of strong for me. My spirit may love all that is old Hollywood glamour but my nose disagrees. 28 November, 2012 |
