More than 1,000 works by some of the most famous names in contemporary photography will be offered in "Photographs from the Polaroid Collection," an auction to be held Monday and Tuesday at Sotheby's in New York. Images by celebrated American artists such as Ansel Adams, Chuck Close and Andy Warhol—all of whom used now-defunct Polaroid cameras and film extensively and in an astonishing array of styles, from Mr. Warhol's party shots to Mr. Adams's pristine landscapes—will be among those up for sale.
Experts say the auction is expected to bring in at least $7.2 million.
Denise Bethel, director of the photographs department at Sotheby's, said that the sale encompasses the "most incredible range of material," including arguably the "best collection of Ansel Adams photographs in private hands." More than 400 of his works will be offered in total.
"The wealth of Adams material is overwhelming," Ms. Bethel said. She added that 30 of the late photographer's mural-sized gelatin silver prints are expected to be among the auction's biggest winners, on account of their size and rarity, as well as their depiction of some of Mr. Adams's most sought-after icons.
"We are lucky if we receive one mural every four or five years," Ms. Bethel said. "In this sale, we have 30."
The auction record for an Adams work was set in 2006, when a gelatin silver print of his "Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico" (1941) sold at Sotheby's for $609,600. A mural-sized gelatin silver print of the 1941 "Moonrise," likely printed in the 1950s or 1960s, is expected to highlight this week's sales with an estimated price of 300,000 to $500,000.

Mr. Adams's breathtaking images of national parks and areas of the American West made him the most widely recognized landscape photographer of the 20th century. But few are aware of his unique connection with the Polaroid brand.
Mr. Adams met the founder and inventor of Polaroid, Edwin Land, in 1948—the same year Polaroid products hit store shelves. One year later, Mr. Land hired Mr. Adams as a consultant to the company. As time passed, Mr. Land would look to the photographer for help in building Polaroid's corporate collection. In turn, Mr. Adams approached his friends and contemporaries in the art world, obtaining works made with both Polaroid and non-Polaroid materials from, among others, Dorothea Lange and Imogen Cunningham.
Polaroid's collection continued to expand into the 1960s and beyond under the company's Artist Support Program, which offered cameras, film and other Polaroid products to artists in exchange for their images and input. Chuck Close and William Wegman were among those who participated, using Polaroid materials as a medium for experimentation and innovation. The fruits of their labor will be up for sale this week.
Mr. Close is best known for his large photographic and photo-realist portraits. His "9 Part Self Portrait," executed in 1987 and comprised of nine unique, large-format Polaroid prints, is expected to sell for at least $50,000.
Other sale highlights are expected to include Polaroid portraits taken by Mr. Warhol, whose interests in mass-produced art and instant, fleeting celebrity were well suited to the Polaroid aesthetic and process. His subjects included Bianca Jagger, Sylvester Stallone and Farah Fawcett, each valued at between $5,000 and $7,000. Self-portraits of Mr. Warhol are expected to fetch at least $10,000.
The items in "Photographs from the Polaroid Collection" are being sold by the order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Minnesota. As part of Polaroid's bankruptcy proceedings in 2009, the court ordered the company to sell part of its collection at auction as a way of paying off creditors. Ms. Bethel said Sotheby's was able to select the items for this week's sale based on market viability. Remarkably, the vast auction holdings, which currently cover nearly six floors of Sotheby's New York location, represent a small portion of a corporate collection that numbers well more than 10,000 images.

Posted by Kody on Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 10:52am.
The le/la has to come after the conjugated verb and before the verb in the infinitive
1) Je veux le voir
If there is one verb then it goes between the pronoun and the verb (which u have done)
Like, say for #10, I would have to put "Vous allez le acheter."?
1. the question is "it is the object of WHICH verb? Of the infinitive here.
2. I answered this one in your later post, which I saw first. Elle le monte.
3. Je viens de le manger (not I just it ate, but I just ate it.)
5. accent grave = achčtes
6. accent grave = ŕ
7. (bébé) = ...va le porter
8. Je la pondrai (spelling problem in the answer = ia vs ai
10. Don't forget the le or la becomes l' before a vowel = l'acheter.
Sra (aka Mme)
1. Je veux voir Paul.
Je veux le voir.
2. Elle monte l'escalier.
Elle le monte.
3. Je viens de manger le gateau.
Je viens l'ai mangé.
4. Elle regardera mes enfants.
Elle les regardera.
5. Tu achetes les pull-overs.
Tu les achetes.
6.Vous donnerez le livre a Thomas.
Vous le lui donnerez.
7. Le monsieur va porter le bebe.
Le monsieur va le porter.
8. Je prendrai la plus belle photo.
Je la prendria.
9. Le facteur apporte les lettres.
Le facteur les apporte.
10. Vous allez acheter le journal.
Vous allez le acheter.
that was just a quick answer without revision or all of the necessary accents

.- Officials of Aid to the Church in Need (CAN) are hopeful for the Catholic Church in Belarus, where many signs of life are sprouting. "The Catholic Church in Belarus is coming out of the ashes of communism," said Antonia Willemsen, the organization's secretary general, Aug. 23 after a visit to the East European country.
Churches are being built and the seminaries are filling up. There are there are currently 27 Belorussian seminarians at the cardinal's seminary in Pinsk, and 15 other candidates entering for the new academic year, reported Marko Tomashek, head of ACN's East Europe III section.
"People are creative and thanks to the great commitment of bishops and priests, numerous parish churches are being built now," said Willemsen, whose organization helps fund pastoral projects. In 2003, ACN gave more than 540.000 Euro for projects in Belarus.
However, Belarus is not without its problems. "Still there are demanding and confusing bureaucratic procedures for obtaining permission to build churches," said Willemsen. "This makes it difficult for the Church to develop its plans. Corruption, bribery and the still existing command economy are enormous obstacles for private businesses as well," she explained.
In addition, foreign missionaries continue to run into difficulty in obtaining visas from the Belorussian authorities, admitted Tomashek.

Settlement responses to boundary-layer flow of several invertebrate taxa, including the hydroid Tubularia crocea, the bryozoans Bugula turrita and Schizoporella unicornis, and the tube-building polychaete Hydroides dianthus were studied in manipulated field flows in Great Harbor, Massachusetts, USA. During three experiments in 1989 and two in 1990, densities of newly-recruited larvae were measured on flat plates, whose flow regimes had been manipulated by altering the leading-edge configurations. Settlement responses to flow were strongly species-specific, with T. crocea preferring regions of both high turbulence and strong shear stress, and S. unicornis settling a most exclusively in regions of high shear stress. B. turrita settled most prominently in regions of reduced shear stress, exhibiting settlement patterns that closely approximated predictions from a model of passive particle contact. H. dianthus showed a moderate avoidance of regions with high shear stress. These results indicate that boundary-layer flows affect settlement of several common encrusting species, a probable consequence of larval behaviors such as substrate rejection or exploration in response to flow. These responses are likely to generate patchiness during initial colonization of natural habitats, and certainly affect colonization of settlement panels commonly used in marine ecological studies.

Nov. 4 (Bloomberg) -- Angelien Kemna, who oversees 275 billion euros ($380 billion) of Dutch pension money, says the euro region must sell common bonds within two years, and predicted "subdued" investment returns until then.
"As an investor with large obligations in euros I want the prospect of a very deep and liquid euro bond market," Kemna, the 54-year-old chief investment officer of APG Groep NV, said in an interview in Amsterdam. "As long as that is part of the final picture, not in 10 years but in one or two, I am willing to accept a muddle-through scenario in which we continue to see small steps in that direction."
Kemna said "a complete disintegration of the euro" where countries besides Greece leave the currency union is no longer impossible, though APG can't risk betting on such a scenario in case policy makers stem the crisis and her funds are crippled by missing a market rebound.
Her take on joint euro bonds puts her at odds with Dutch central bank President Klaas Knot, who sees them as an option only in the long run, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who last week repeated her rejection of joint bonds, saying they wouldn't maintain a top credit rating.
Without prospects for euro bonds, APG may reconsider its asset allocation and move money away from Europe, Kemna said.
Euro bonds, proposed by policy makers including European Commission President Jose Barroso, would be sold jointly by the euro area's 17 nations to finance all nations' debt in the currency union, and would be jointly guaranteed by all members. European banks, life insurers and pension funds would benefit from a "deep euro bond market" that offers investors an alternative" to U.S. Treasuries, Kemna said.
'Collective Patience'
Kemna said "collective patience is needed" to get through the next few years and allow the orderly creation of a euro bond market, and "sufficiently isolate Greece to manage out contagion risks" as countries cut debt.
Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou sent European stock markets plunging this week after surprising his European Union partners and saying he would call a referendum, before reversing course. The referendum call spurred speculation the bailout package reached on Oct. 27 would founder.
Stichting Pensioenfonds ABP, APG's top customer, had about 500 million euros in Greek inflation-linked bonds maturing in 2025 and 2030 at the end of May. That's down from the 2.3 billion euros in Greek government debt it held in 2009.
Fund Returns
Kemna said average returns between 6 and 7 percent are possible over the coming two decades, compared with APG's average annual return of 7 percent over the past 20 years. She said that up until October, all her clients' portfolios had a "small" positive return for the year.
Dutch pension funds are required to mark their investments to market. In 2010, ABP held Italian government bonds with a market value of 10 billion euros, its second-largest investment, according to a report on the fund's website.
Kemna declined to say whether APG had changed its investments following last week's bailout. APG last year had a loss of 424 million euros on Greek debt, including a 160 million-euro loss on the sale of Greek securities, while Greek index-linked bonds fell 264 million euros in value.
Most Powerful Woman
Kemna, who became APG's investment chief in November 2009, was named the Netherlands' most powerful woman this year by Opzij magazine, beating out Neelie Kroes, the EU's commissioner for digital affairs, Wolters Kluwer NV Chief Executive Officer Nancy McKinstry and model Doutzen Kroes.
Previously, she was director of investments and account management at Rabobank Groep's Robeco unit and headed ING Groep NV's European investment-management unit until 2007. She says time she spent in the U.S. during the height of the 2008 crisis, seeing how some retirees lost all their income in an individual pension system, motivated her to move to APG.
The Netherlands has the euro area's biggest pension industry, with 790 billion euros in assets at the end of the first quarter, data from the Dutch and European central banks show. The assets are held in collective plans run by industry, company and occupational pension funds. ABP, the biggest Dutch pension manager and third-largest in the world, runs 235 billion euros in assets for teachers and civil servants.
The main challenge to the Dutch pension system is higher life expectancy, she said.
"Those influences are much bigger and more structural than a crisis," Kemna said. "In the long term I am much less concerned about investment returns than the fact that we live longer and have to pay for it."

What a great book! Stout and Hayes have brought together a wonderful cast of experienced clinicians and clinician-administrators who understand both the need for, and the provision of, solid care for people with mental disorders. Every mental health professional needs books like Evidence-Based Practice in Behavioral Health if he or she is to treat patients within the current standard of care. [This] is a critical book for trainees, front-line mental health and substance abuse clinicians, program administrators, and - especially - clinicians still bound to a questionable past of "but this is the way we've always done it." [C]linicians and clinical administrators who follow the principles in Evidence-Based Practice in Behavioral Health will be doing a favor for both their patients and themselves.—William H.

Ok. We had some small changes, so here's the deal:
1) Engage Offroad will be sponsoring our first official SoCal Tacomas Mod Day by providing burgers and potato salad.
2) Because of this, you need not bring food unless burgers are not your thing; just bring chips, dips and drinks.
3) Engage's very own Chris will be coming down from Pomona with an Engage CHASE truck for further representation. As well as a Welder for us to use for all our needs.
4) Cal Mini Trucks, through Engage Chris, will be buying (stock only) parts from users who are removing them; Chris will collect the parts, tag them by owner, and will take them to Cal Minis. Cal Minis will then write out and mail a check to each person who sold items to them. Bring your old aluminum crush bumpers, your plastic bumpers, your LCAs, good condition fenders and what ever else you can think of that you ripped off your truck.
It's turning out to be even BETTER than originally planned and all of us already knew it would be a jolly-good-time. Come one come all to the first official Engage sponsored SoCal Tacomas Mod Meet... Cookies and punch will be there.

Cycling and Common Injuires Now that the weather is becoming more cooperative for outdoor interests, a boom in activity is taking place. Accompanying this is an increase in injuries related to the natural process of coming out from hibernation and waking up those sleepy muscles.
Why modern people have poor posture ObservationsBeing upright is and was the most natural body position. This was the norm during almost the entire history of humanity. Standing also was the norm in factories, plants, shops and offices up to the beginning of the 20th century.
Which exercise parameters increase body oxygenation Dozens of published medical studies clearly proved that body oxygenation, which is reflected by stress-free breath-holding time, is the best indicator of physical health.
Stop asthma attacks using basic breath control The exercise was used by over 200 Soviet and Russian doctors who have been practicing the Buteyko breathing self-oxygenation method. They taught it to many thousands of people.
Usual Breathing Patterns in Sick People If we consider automatic breathing patterns in sick people with various health problems, virtually all health conditions are characterized by ineffective breathing.
Walking and Exercise with Nose (Not Mouth) Breathing Leads to Slimming Down Millions of people use physical exercise and try to lose weight or get slim, but cannot succeed due to one serious mistake. There are several essential differences if we compare effects of exercise (e.

Role Models (Rated R) Gavin Grade: B
I had a lot of hope for this comedy staring Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott. That's because creators David Wain and Ken Marino are two of the masterminds behind the cult sketch comedy MTV show from the '90s, "The State." It's a classic buddy comedy where two guys find themselves put in a position of court-ordered Community Service at a group for kids. The two they're paired up with is a foul mouth kid, who's played by newcomer Bobb'e Thompson and a Renaissance Fair nerd played by Christopher Mintz-Plaase, who you'll recognize instantly as McLovin from "Superbad." Don't get me wrong, the movie is funny; but I expected more. Wain and Marino created two other movies called "Wet Hot American Summer" and "The Ten." Both are in my Top 30 favorite comedies of all time. The trap I fell into was expecting that again. Those movies are quirky, weird and not for everyone. "Role Models" is more mainstream. So that means that just because I didn't like it that much, you probably will.

Why I Said No to Joe
IT IS annoying, at the best, to be hauled up before the McCarthy committee, even if you have the satisfaction of telling Joe to go peddle his papers. It is somewhat sobering, later, to receive letters from fine people commending you for doing what, after all, is only a simple and rudimentary act of citizenship. Their appreciation shows how far, in recent years, we havoc slipped down freedom's hill.
In olden times--at least as far back as 1910, say--it was a cardinal point of Americanism that a man's politics were his own business. Now they seem to be the business of any McCarthy, Jenner, or Velde who cares to stick his nose in. If a man's home is his castle, a man's mind is his own. Many Americans seem to have forgotten this. All the more honor to a new American, Albert Einstein, for reminding us that we have a duty not to cooperate with the book-burners.
One fine summer day a person who said he was Roy Cohn of the Senate Investigating (McCarthy) Committee, telephoned me to announce that I was summoned to appear. My crime: I had written books which, this voice said, had appeared in overseas libraries of the State Department Later I received telegrams from a person teletyped as "Joe McCarthy" which "confirmed telephonic directions." (I hope I will be pardoned for referring to the gentleman as plain, simple "Joe." That is the way he signs himself.)
I was summoned to appear in Washington on "Tuesday, July 9." As this was an improbable date for 1953, I decided to pass it up. After Tuesday had come and gone, Joe was reported to have said that I was already "in contempt." Later he apparently revised his offhand opinion and issued the kind of subpoena which all other Congressional committees regard as the normal means for summoning witnesses.
As I was determined not to enter into a political discussion with Joe, my appearance before his committee was short and to the point. I said, in effect, "None of your business." My political affiliations, or lack of them, could be of no legitimate concern to him or his committee--that is, if our elected officials are in reality our servants and not our masters.
It is appalling that such an answer seems to be novel nowadays. Back in the 1600's In England, Catholic kings, and queens, hacked off Protestant heads, and Protestant kings, and queens, hacked off Catholic heads, because, some stiff-necked people regarded their religion as their own business. Finally the English got around to agreeing that a man's religion is no business of the state. In the 1700's the agreement was extended to apply to a man's politics. This was accepted as good doctrine in the United States until a few years ago. Now it appears that we must fight to get back liberties conceded. more than two centuries ago.
Of course the witch-hunters have been lurking around the corner from the earliest days. Usually the citizens had more guts than the witch-hunters At times, however, the balance shifted, and the Joes got the upper hand. After World War I the Industrial Workers of the World put it this way: "Free speech--say anything you want to, but keep your mouth shut." Fortunately, for the wobblies this was mere irony; their free-speech fights are part of the great American tradition.
One has only to glance at labor history to see how far we have slipped. Workingmen back in the 1880's and 1890's expressed themselves with a freedom and vehemence that today, under the Smith act, would land them behind the stockades for twenty years. Gene Debs's frank speech is now astounding to a generation brought up on the desiccated pap of denatured opinion. The principles of the Declaration of Independence and of the Bill of Rights, which seemed fresh only a scant thirty years ago, today are suspect as being if not outright subversive at least soft-headed. Jefferson is accused of being a sentimentalist.
IF THIS IS the Age of Cringe and Scatter, let us so pronounce it. Let us time-life-fortune the Bill of Rights into the sickly wisdom of 1953; let "free enterprise" be boldly proclaimed as the ultimate in Americanism; let the Nevinses rewrite our history so that John D. Rockefeller may be exalted.
I for one refuse to believe that freedom must vanish. To paraphrase Lincoln, it is possible to scare some of the people all the time and all the people some of the time; but the current hysteria will pass, and people will marvel that so many hapless wretches could have been burned for so little reason.
Take, for example, a current case. The State Department obtains the books of an author for its overseas libraries. The assumption is that royalties on these volumes are paid to the author. The further assumption, by McCarthy, is that a portion of these royalties is paid by the author to the "Communist conspiracy." Ergo.
It can be, as in my case, that no royalties whatever were received as a result of the State Department's acquisition of the author's books. It can be, as in my case, that no none of the non-existent royalties were paid to the "Communist conspiracy." Nevertheless, one can be haled before the McCarthy committee to answer an idiotic line of questioning based on these assumptions and winding up with the clincher: When you wrote these books bought by "the old Acheson State Department" were you a member of the "Communist conspiracy"?--whatever that may be, as defined by McCarthy.
In other times it might have been a matter of pride to a writer that his books were selected by his country for overseas libraries, as an exhibit of the American way of life. But today, if Joe sees fit, this choice may be the author's open sesame to the federal penitentiary.
The excuse for this outrage is that Joe's committee is empowered to inspect the economy and efficiency with which the government's money is expended: With the budget running around eighty billion dollars a year, there may well be quite a bit of legitimate business awaiting a committee on government expenditures. Instead, Joe concerns himself with non-existent royalties on books and the non-existent percentage of these non-existent royalties paid to the "Communist conspiracy."
The medieval schoolmen are said to have indulged in similar feats of logic-chopping, one such debate on a pinhead involved the standing room of angels. Joe's involves human beings, and happy is Joe if the writer on his pinhead loses his contracts, loses his publisher, starves a while, and also spends some time in the hoosegow. That will teach him to write books and to assert his simple rights as a citizen.
McCARTHY, of course, is not too much concerned about writers, preachers, and other purveyors of opinion. He is busy fighting the future. If he can keep us occupied fighting for freedoms imbedded in the Constitution 160 years ago, he can keep us from examining the cause and cure of the crisis of our own times. Thus he can keep us from inspecting the rotting foundations of a system which acts as if it sees its perpetuation only through war--and the destruction of the human species.
McCarthy is busy at the moment befouling one of the finest periods of our history--the Roosevelt thirties, when people awoke with hope that they could do something to better their lot. The people's faith in their own capacity and in their own leaders must be rooted out. Then only the McCarthys will be left as leaders.
That is the real meaning of this calculated campaign of confounded and confounding idiocy. The people must stand bemused and paralyzed.
McCarthy will fade, as other demagogues have faded, if enough of us refuse to be bemused and paralyzed. If a wretched governmental bureaucrat of the McCarthy type presumes to ask us our politics, it is fitting and proper to tell him to mind his own business. If the penalty for contempt of such demagogues and loyalty to the Bill of Rights is one to twelve months in the penitentiary, then when was the chance to fight for freedom ever offered so cheaply?

M.A. in Engaged Humanities & the Creative Life
At a fundamental level, to study the Humanities is to study being human by investigating literature, the arts, philosophy, history, religion, and other inherently human interests. Pacifica's program in Engaged Humanities and the Creative Life goes further to examine how individuals can be active and powerful in the world through the study of creativity and culture. The program's emphasis in depth psychology, which explores the creative unconscious, and its emphasis on arts practice make it unique.
The program invites students in the visual, performing, narrative, studio, and media arts; the creative side of advertising, marketing, and product development; teachers of art, literature, and the humanities; professionals in creative fields such as architecture, interior design, and fashion, and the film, television, and music industries; and any others who want to live and work more creatively, or foster creativity in themselves and others. It combines intellectual rigor with creative expression, encouraging dialogue amongst students and faculty working in all mediums in an effort to deepen and broaden our individual and collective potential to make our contribution to the humanities. Discover strategies for tapping into the deep well of the collective unconscious as a source of creativity, including studying imagery, symbolism, and the great archetypal patterns and stories that underpin our everyday lives. Study how people working in any creative capacity in any creative medium inspire and influence each other, and experience that same inspiration and influence inside of their cohort
Depth psychology offers methods for developing creativity and wholeness such as dream work and active imagination, while arts practice is attuned to developing the creativity so often ignored in modern life. Designed for anyone who wants to realize his or her creative potential, this program seeks out those who want to join a humanities program not so much of the world, but for it.
Students in the M.A. in Engaged Humanities & the Creative Life program:
- Increase their generativity and cultivate their aesthetic sensibility and sensitivity by being in constant conversation about the creative life with faculty and peers, with great literature, classic films, and works of art spanning diverse genres, cultures, and periods of time
- Find rich sources of inspiration in the humanities, including the study of mythology, philosophy, psychology, history, literature, and ecology as they affect the art and craft of living and working artfully
- Participate and collaborate with a community of creatives from across a wide variety of artistic disciplines, educational backgrounds, and life experiences
- Complete two substantial creative projects or portfolios and reflect upon their creative process
- Receive a degree which expands their job options or opens up new career tracks
"Pacifica's M.A. in Engaged Humanities and the Creative Life enables you to conceive and incubate your own creative project—either drawn from professional life in the world, or from your desire to live more authentically. Come and learn with us arts practice enhanced by the creative psyche and the ecological humanities." -Susan Rowland, Ph.D., Chair of the M.A. Engaged Humanities and the Creative Life program

Alain Figlarz,
Doudou Masta France has become quite the country to rely on when it comes to bloody and hyper-violent horror flicks, so when word came down that the genre was going to get a zombie film from'em naturally it was met with a lot of high expectations. The Horde is a movie that I've been anticipating since I first heard of it a couple years back and finally having seen the pic, it pains me to say that it left me rather disappointed...
Fueled with revenge over the death of a fellow police officer, a small group of corrupt cops decide to infiltrate a rundown apartment building, where the gang that killed their comrade are holed up at. However, the bad blood between the two groups is put on hold when they realize that the recently deceased are re-animating and looking to take a bite outta some living flesh.
This is far from a bad film, but it isn't particularly a good one either. We fans have grown to expect very little as far as story goes within the zombie sub-genre, but the "story" in this film is almost non-existent. The brief plot-outline I gave above is pretty much the entire story. We also receive absolutely no information as to why these people have become zombies.
This isn't exactly uncommon, but we're usually at least given some minor clues that leave us to our own conclusions as to how things came to be. In this movie things just are and we have to simply accept that. There's a scene early on that has our leads looking over the seemingly chaotic city from a distance depicting that it's also happening outside the apartment complex, but none of what's happening on the outside is explored more than that.
There's a lot of lost potential here, as it could have been a truly great film. For instance, there's no sense of urgency or tension that you'd expect it to have. Yes, the groups are trapped in the building and are looking for a way out, but we don't really feel as though the situation is as dire as it should've been.
There are many scenes in the middle where the leads seem kind of relaxed, just fending off against a few zombies, then spending the next 15-or-so minutes talking and assessing the situation before they encounter a couple more zombies. At least with [Rec] (another film set primarily in an apartment building) they offered a lot of tension and captured the claustrophobic no-way-out situation perfectly. They never really had much chance to catch a breath like the characters in this movie did.
The leads really don't encounter an actual "horde" of zombies until towards the end, which (aside from the beginning) is the strongest and offered the most fuel-intense scenes. On a more positive side of things, the film had few cool characters and scenes, like one guy that takes on a some zombies with his bare hands and another scene towards the end with one dude fending off against dozens of zombies with only a couple hand guns and a machete.
Probably the best character in the movie is an old man that the group encounters later on that had been taking out zombies with an axe, however we don't get to see him use the axe anymore after that point since he eventually replaces it with a badass .30 cal machine gun! Sadly, we're given little-to-no character development for any of these characters.
The look of the zombies is what you'd expect from the modern-day fast-running undead. With the exception of the first zombie they encounter, they're all pretty standard, offering no real characteristics that separate one from the other. For some unknown reason the directors decided to do some sort of fast-motion effect with the zombies in a couple scenes that just seemed unnecessary and out of place. Luckily they don't use that method much.
All negative aside, it's still a fairly entertaining pic, giving us a good amount of blood and violence that we've come to expect from France. It's a nice adrenaline ride towards the end, which makes up for a lot of the pacing issues encountered in the middle. Though, the movie does suffer from a rather poor ending, I can only hope that the filmmakers peruse a sequel that'll delve more into the origin of the zombie infestation.
The film gives us some cool characters and scenes, but lacks the creativity and atmosphere that it could've had. With a non-existent story, pacing issues in the mid-mark and a poor ending, the movie's only redeeming values are the more fuel-intense scenes in the beginning and the end. Worth a check for zombie fans, as it's a decent flick, but don't expect much as far as originality or creativity goes.

It's official, summer is really here! That means we can all start looking forward to wonderful locally homegrown corn, green beans, squash, cucumbers and even some early tomatoes! Yup, you'll be able to find all of these goodies this Saturday at the Bluegrass Farmers' Market. Yes, you read it correctly...corn is in. :) We've had customers asking for corn since the market opened the 2014 market season. We had to explain that the Bluegrass Farmers' Market is a 100% homegrown/produced market and sorry, it just wasn't in season in Kentucky until last week. Homegrown can mean that "someone" grew it "somewhere!" lol Not at our market...we grow what we sell! That means that our customers are guaranteed really local products and we like it that way.
Corn isn't the only summer goodie that will be available...green beans are in too. So are those wonderful for grilling zucchini and yellow squash. The vine ripe tomatoes are still a bit scarce but we will have some. Besides, now is the time to take advantage of those wonderful fried green maters. I don't know about anyone else but the first bite of that crisp cucumber means summer has arrived for me. The lettuce season is slowing down so grab some and have a fresh salad. And, if you've been eating grocery store potatoes all winter...wait until you taste a farm fresh one. The same goes for the flavor of a head of honest to gosh homegrown cabbage. Life is good at the Bluegrass Farmers' Market! :)
You've noticed that we say we are a 100% homegrown/produced market. That means that not everything is "grown!" Some items are raised, baked or made by our farmers. Full of flavor meats of all varieties and cuts are raised by our farmers. Home baked goodies like zucchini breads come from our ovens. Home crafted soaps, jams, jellies, herb seasoning, salsas, etc. are all made by our members. We'll give credit to the hens for laying the eggs! Lol

Laura Kinsale sent us a link to a rant she wrote on her own BB, wherein she discusses political correctness clashing with her desire and goal to write a good story.
Kinsale's frustration is with readers who expect enlightened heroes (read: not 'old fashioned' alpha heroes) but bemoan the lack of good stories:
I read a lot—a LOT—of reader commentary on the various romance sites regarding things like alpha heroes and "rape" and "forced seduction" and how all that is so 1970's (or 80's or 90's, take your pick depending on your age) but we're all enlightened modern women now and we just don't like that sort of thing. Then in the next thread will be complaints that the genre just isn't as compelling or interesting as it used to be and readers can't find books they really enjoy, and gee, why are all the heroes vampires now?
The trend, as she calls it, of self-conscious political correctness in romance is somewhat stifling to Kinsale as a writer, and a recent review in Salon gave her the context to express what had been irritating her.
The book being reviewed was a discussion of eroticism and emotional intimacy in real-world marriages, but when applied to romance protagonists, the discussion takes on different significance:
Erotic desire, Perel argues, thrives on mystery, unpredictability and politically incorrect power games, not housework battles and childcare woes…. "The challenge for modern couples," she writes, "lies in reconciling the need for what's safe and predictable with the wish to pursue what's exciting, mysterious, and awe-inspiring."
Kinsale writes: "It sometimes begins to seem to me that a goodly percentage of present day romance readers are actually frightened of reading about a real conflict in a book." Moreover, "Romance IS an erotic genre. And Perel has pointed out the elephant in the room: Erotic desire…thrives on mystery, unpredictability and politically incorrect power games."
Kinsale argues that readers have become self-conscious about their own erotic fantasies, and the genre itself has been divided into two camps: the "safe Regency settings" that provide emotional depth, while "the erotic drive has been channeled over to vampire and fantasy books where realism is a non-issue," leaving folks who prefer neither to complain that there's nothing to read.
This long-ass summary of a really thought-provoking rant caused me to turn to my husband of six years and ask, "Can you have your emotional security cake and hump it too?" He of course, had no idea what I was talking about but was pleased that I'd mentioned both "cake" and "humping."
I don't know in all honesty what I think about the idea of the divide of the genre, or the idea that readers don't want to read real conflict. But I do have to wonder about the idea that erotic desire "thrives on politically incorrect power games." Is erotica as a genre then a subversion of current standards of societal correctness, particularly in America where we can watch ten men get shot before 9pm eastern but God forbid we see a naked breast during prime time?
When I consider the responses to our discussions of heroes, heroines, and plotlines on this site, I haven't necessarily read a great deal of shunning of the alpha hero, though our discussion on rape scenes in romance was long and infinitely absorbing, even as most of those commenting on the topic agreed it was a cliche that was better left in the past. but are we uncomfortable with conflict and sexual power plays in romance, unless they are shelved under the erotica genre?
I'm still formulating my reaction, to be honest, but Kinsale's rant gave me a lot to think about in terms of erotica, romance, and expectations of the genre. And I very much want to read what you think.
