Resort Cotton Bath Towel
experience frontgate
Ordered spa towels for a housewarmng gift--loved them so much, I bought some for myself. Then ordered the monogrammed doormat and am very pleased with the quality of all the products, the speed of delivery and the price. Can't wait to see the marble bath accessories I ordered.

Bath Towels
Your bath towels and bath rugs are superior!
February 19, 2010
The weight and length of the towels was good, the problem was, when they were washed, the threads came out of the fabric; like it had been shreeded and made the towles look like they had been used and abused! I tried cutting the threads, but there were too many! very disapointed in the quality; I compaired to the Macy's Hotel brand (top of the line turkish towels), and these towels were a disapointment. I had the monogram put on, so I could not send them back.
February 19, 2010
I first ordered these towels a year ago and loved them so much that I ordered two more sets over the past year. They are luxuriously thick and very absorbent. They make me feel very decadent and pampered!

Beautiful wedding gift
I bought these monogramed towels to give as a wedding gift. I remembered how long nice towels lasted that I received as wedding gifts and I wanted to give them something that would make them think of me. I went with their team colors which are black and gold so I got yellow towels with a black monogram. They look beautiful and I can't wait to give them to the bride and groom.

We love these towels
First we were given the resort towels as a housepresent, and now we have become total converts.They are thick, luscious, and of the best quality.
February 18, 2010
These towels are fantastic! I've bought similar towels(800gram) from other places and these stand up to the everyday wear and washing. The others frayed after a time of wringing them out. I would highly reccommend these. Go ahead and treat yourself to quality towels.
February 17, 2010
Love it!
This is the second time I have ordered these towels and I absolutely love them!
February 17, 2010
Best Quality Towels on the Market!
We've traveled the world and have never found towels of this quality. They're thick and absorbent and almost heavy enough to use as a blanket (we bought the bath sheets). Bravo! My only complaint is I'd like to see them in more and brighter colors.
February 17, 2010
Practical elegance
At first, ordered two bath towels "testing the waters" from an email sent by Frontgate. After receiving these lush & weighty towels, colors true with the exquisitely done monogram, I ordeded the rest of the set. Wonderful quality compared to any other towel! This is one review a really wanted to write!
February 17, 2010
great towels, as described, love the monogram, will definitely order more
February 17, 2010
Sumptuous towels
Purchased the mongrammed bath towels. They are very thick and luxurious and the monogram is lovely. At the sale price they are a terrific value and probably the best towel on the market for the price. May buy a few more for another bathroom. Wish they had more color choices.
February 16, 2010
You won't be sorry!
Love these towels! Wash well, and feel great. I buy some every year for me; and they have made great gifts as well. Only thing I don't like, is that the wash clothes are too big, which others may prefer.
February 16, 2010
Great towel
This towel is great. My husband said, "Let's get rid of all the other towels in our closet and just stock these Frontgate towels." They feel awesome.
February 16, 2010
Bath Towels
great size and very soft and absorbent; should last for many, many years with proper care
February 16, 2010
Best Towels Ever Purchased
Recently purchased two sets monogrammed Resort cotton towels in Harvest. One of the best on-line purchases I've ever made. I'm not a proponent of "buying without seeing and touching" but the towels have met my every expectation - absorbent, wash well, hold their shape and color, as well as being colorful. I was so impressed, I purchased another two sets, one in Espresso and one in Linen. I'm considering another purchase for a bridal shower gift.
February 16, 2010
Great quality...excellent
Towels were as advertised...very soft...love
the monogram...Using them and displaying them...Thanks
February 16, 2010
Great Purchase!
My husband and I are very happy with the bath towels and bath mat we recently purchased. This may very well be the first of more purchases to come!
February 16, 2010
Soft, Gorgeous, and So Absorbant!!
Bought a set of these towels as a gift for my son...they were so attractive, so absorbant and of such high quality that I am ordering a set for myself today. Thank you Frontgate!!
February 15, 2010
Love it!!
These towels are fabulous!! They are soft and beautiful. The size is perfect, nice and large for the bath sheet. The woven loop is nice and tight.
This is the second set of towels purchased and I am very very happy with the overall quality and durability wash after wash.
February 14, 2010
Personalization done bad
The quality of the towel was good. But the initials (lettering) on the towel was done wrongly. I wanted honey suckle color and a different font style. But the color you guys gave was ivory and font style was wrong.
On the whole, it was not a satisfying experience b/c my order was wrongly executed.
February 13, 2010
Great towels
These towels are attractive, absorbent and were delivered in good order. I was especially pleased the color really matched what I saw in the catalog. We're glad we bought them.
February 13, 2010
So far so good. My wife and I like the towels so far, but they are still pretty new to us. Time will be the real deciding factor. But, initial reports are very good.
February 13, 2010
Awesome towels
If you like large, thick, soft towels then these are the ones for you. I have purchased these towels twice and they are great.
February 12, 2010
Amazing Towels
These towels a very thick, plush and soft. They wash very well and the size of the bath towel is perfect. I would not hesitate to give them a try.
February 12, 2010
Very High Quality
The towels were advertised at 5 star hotel quality. It was not an overstatement. Soft, luxurious and beautiful are words which come to mind.
February 12, 2010
I am disappointed in the color of the monogram. Was looking for something peachy, but this is more golden/yellow. Couldn't really tell on line.
February 12, 2010
Great Product!
We love the towles so far! They are super absorbant and soft! I love the colors available!
February 11, 2010
Best Luxury Towels
The towels were exactly as advertised. They are luxurious and soft. The sizing is wonderful - the bath sheet is wonderfully sized! Definitely worth the cost. My only caution to anyone is follow the washing directions and do not use fabric softener.
February 11, 2010
Love the feel + the monogram.
Little disappointed the towels weren't longer.

The Liberal/Conservative dichotomy does not really explain where people are on the political spectrum. There are different kinds of conservatives and different kinds of liberals. This has been a theme of a number of our blog posts. But now the Pew Research Center has formulated a "political typology" that consists of nine different positions:
Staunch Conservatives take extremely conservative positions on nearly all issues – on the size and role of government, on economics, foreign policy, social issues and moral concerns. Most agree with the Tea Party and even more very strongly disapprove of Barack Obama's job performance. A second core group of Republicans – Main Street Republicans – also is conservative, but less consistently so.
On the left, Solid Liberals express diametrically opposing views from the Staunch Conservatives on virtually every issue. While Solid Liberals are predominantly white, minorities make up greater shares of New Coalition Democrats – who include nearly equal numbers 0f whites, African Americans and Hispanics – and Hard-Pressed Democrats, who are about a third African American. Unlike Solid Liberals, both of these last two groups are highly religious and socially conservative. New Coalition Democrats are distinguished by their upbeat attitudes in the face of economic struggles.
Independents have played a determinative role in the last three national elections. But the three groups in the center of the political typology have very little in common, aside from their avoidance of partisan labels. Libertarians and Post-Moderns are largely white, well-educated and affluent. They also share a relatively secular outlook on some social issues, including homosexuality and abortion. But Republican-oriented Libertarians are far more critical of government, less supportive of environmental regulations, and more supportive of business than are Post-Moderns, most of whom lean Democratic.
Disaffecteds, the other main group of independents, are financially stressed and cynical about politics. Most lean to the Republican Party, though they differ from the core Republican groups in their support for increased government aid to the poor. Another group in the center, Bystanders, largely consign themselves to the political sidelines and for the most part are not included in this analysis.

You can even take a quiz to see which one of these you are. This is not one of those Facebook quizzes, like seeing which Star Trek character you are. This is sophisticated social science research!
And yet, it still seems to leave a lot of political ideologies out: Where are the Burkean conservatives? The neo-conservatives? The paleo-conservatives? The crunchy conservatives? The Wendell Berry conservatives? The localists? The Reconstructionists? Where are the socialists? The Greens? The Anarchists? The Jihadists? The Marxists?
I think the true political spectrum is even more complicated than this typology shows.
Take the quiz. Does it peg you? Or are there other issues that this study doesn't even raise that are more definitive, as far as you are concerned?

"Strong" usually means good, and "weak" usually means bad. Ezra Klein says that those positive or negative connotations shouldn't necessarily apply to the dollar:
Sometimes, of course, a strong dollar is in our best interest. And over the long run, a strong economy will produce a strong dollar. But there are moments when stronger isn't better. Moments like, well, this one.
The dollar's "strength" or "weakness" is relative. "A strong dollar means that when you exchange it for another currency, you get a lot of that other currency for a single dollar," says Josh Bivens, an economist at the Economic Policy Institute. A weak dollar, of course, implies the reverse.
That's . . . it. In practice, a strong dollar makes foreign goods cheaper and domestically produced goods more expensive. That's a boon for American consumers, American travelers and countries that export to America. In fact, when you hear that China is manipulating its currency, that's a reference to its efforts to keep the dollar strong and the yuan weak. As far as China is concerned, a strong dollar means a strong China.
A weak dollar, meanwhile, makes American-made goods cheaper on the world market and foreign-produced goods — including commodities, like oil — more expensive. That's a boon for American manufacturers and people in other countries who want to buy American goods or come visit the country. The very crude way to put it is that, in the short term, a stronger dollar is good for buying stuff and a weaker dollar is good for making stuff.
What a temporarily weak dollar is particularly good for, however, is recovering from a deep recession. "If domestic demand is weak," says Barry Eichengreen, an economist at the University of California at Berkeley, "the normal way an economy reacts to that is by substituting export demand, and a more competitive dollar is the way that happens."
The same goes for deficit reduction, Eichengreen says. That's because cutting government spending reduces domestic demand, and so you need to find new sources of demand to avoid a recession. The way countries customarily do that is to weaken their currencies to make their exports more competitive.
You can probably see where I'm going with this. We happen to be simultaneously trying to recover from a recession and reduce the deficit. But the value of the dollar, though low historically, is higher than you might expect: It shot up after the financial crisis, as anxious investors loaded up on Treasury bonds, and returned to its pre-crisis level only recently. But the economy is much weaker now than it was then, and America much more in need of an export boom.
The irony is that although in the long run, a healthy, productive economy will lead to a stronger dollar, getting there probably requires a temporarily weaker dollar.
via 'Strong dollar' doesn't make sense – The Washington Post.
Do you think this is a correct analysis?
The head of the International Monetary Fund, a likely Socialist candidate for the presidency of France, was yanked out of his first class cabin on a plane just before it was set to take off and was arrested for sexual assault.
Haggard and unshaven after a weekend in jail, the chief of the International Monetary Fund was denied release on bail Monday on charges of trying to rape a hotel maid as allegations of other, similar attacks by Dominique Strauss-Kahn began to emerge.
In France, a lawyer for a novelist said the writer is likely to file a criminal complaint accusing Strauss-Kahn of sexually assaulting her nine years ago. A French lawmaker accused him of attacking other maids in previous stays at the same luxury hotel. And in New York, prosecutors said they are working to verify reports of at least one other case, which they suggested was overseas.
Strauss-Kahn's weekend arrest rocked the financial world as the IMF grapples with the European debt crisis, and upended French presidential politics. Strauss-Kahn, a member of France's Socialist party, was widely considered the strongest potential challenger next year to President Nicolas Sarkozy.
Making his first appearance on the sex charges, a grim-looking Strauss-Kahn stood slumped before a judge in a dark raincoat and open-collared shirt. The 62-year-old, silver-haired Strauss-Kahn said nothing as a lawyer professed his innocence and strove in vain to get him released on bail.
The judge ruled against him after prosecutors warned that the wealthy banker might flee to France and put himself beyond the reach of U.S. law like the filmmaker Roman Polanski.
The story goes on to give the sordid details of the attack on the maid, an African immigrant, who went in to clean the $3000-per-night room and was attacked by the naked Strauss-Kahn. This was no sexual harassment charge by "puritanical" Americans, as some Frenchmen are saying. Rather, it was a brutal, violent attempted rape.
I had an epiphany while reading reports of protests in Europe against the various austerity measures being imposed due to the different government's economic woes: The radical ideology for our postmodern times is anarchism, the rejection of all authority.
Let me explain, but first read what is happening in Europe:
Already struggling to avoid a debt default that could seal Greece's fate as a financial pariah, this Mediterranean nation is also scrambling to contain another threat — a breakdown in the rule of law.
Thousands have joined an "I Won't Pay" movement, refusing to cover highway tolls, bus fares, even fees at public hospitals. To block a landfill project, an entire town south of Athens has risen up against the government, burning earth-moving equipment and destroying part of a main access road.
The protests are an emblem of social discontent spreading across Europe in response to a new age of austerity. At a time when the United States is just beginning to consider deep spending cuts, countries such as Greece are coping with a fallout that has extended well beyond ordinary civil disobedience.
Perhaps most alarming, analysts here say, has been the resurgence of an anarchist movement, one with a long history in Europe. While militants have been disrupting life in Greece for years, authorities say that anger against the government has now given rise to dozens of new "amateur anarchist" groups, whose tactics include planting of gas canisters in mailboxes and destroying bank ATMs.
Some attacks have gone further, heightening concerns about a return to the kind of left-wing violence that plagued parts of Europe during the 1970s and 1980s. After urban guerrillas mailed explosive parcels to European leaders and detonated a powerful bomb last year in front of an Athens courthouse, authorities here have staged a series of raids, arresting dozens and yielding caches of machine guns, grenades and bomb-making materials.
The anarchist movement in Europe has a long, storied past, embracing an anti-establishment universe influenced by a broad range of thinkers from French politician and philosopher Pierre-Joseph Proudhon to Karl Marx to Oscar Wilde. Defined narrowly, the movement includes groups of urban guerillas, radical youths and militant unionists. More broadly, it encompasses everything from punk rock to WikiLeaks. . . .
A radical minority is energizing the anarchist movement, a loose network of anti-establishment groups that sprung up in force in the 1970s in opposition to Greece's former military junta. Over the next two decades, anarchists would assassinate Richard Welch, a CIA station chief in Athens, as well as Greek politicians and a British military attache.
Greek authorities seemed to cut the head off the movement after the leaders of November 17th, the largest group, were arrested in the early 2000s before Greece hosted the 2004 Olympics. But it has been gaining new life. The December 2008 killing of a 15-year anarchist by a police officer in the Exarchia neighborhood of Athens sparked days of riots and became the impetus for a series of fresh attacks.
Since then, experts say, the economic crisis has helped the movement thrive, with anarchists positioning themselves as society's new avengers. Long a den of anarchists, the graffiti-blanketed Exarchia neighborhood is alive anew with dissent. Nihilist youths are patrolling the local park, preventing police from entering and blocking authorities from building a parking lot on the site. On one evening at a local cafe, an anarchist group was broadcasting anti-government messages via a clandestine radio station using a laptop and a few young recruits.
In the most recent attacks, only one person has been injured, a courier who handled a letter bomb, but over the past two years, anarchist attacks have claimed four lives in Greece, including a journalist and a minister's top aide. Left-wing radicals also appear responsible for the deaths of three civilians — including a pregnant woman — after a bank was firebombed during an anti-government protest last year.
Still, there is a line to be drawn between the far larger group of young anarchists hurling Molotov cocktails at street demonstrations and the smaller, more dangerous cells of urban guerrillas. But experts are increasingly concerned about growing militancy on the streets and the emergence of dozens of new anarchist groups on the Internet.
via In Greece, austerity kindles deep discontent – The Washington Post.
We have anarchist protesters here in the USA too. They are the ones who wear masks and break windows during the protests at the various global economics conclaves.
Now of course in Europe it is beyond absurd to protest cut-backs in government services by advocating the elimination of government altogether! But anarchists reject the authority of reason also. I think their strategy is exploit people's anger at their governments to turn them against government in general. But I'm thinking that the fundamental ideology needs to be taken seriously because, to one degree or another, it has become pervasive.
There are many paths to anarchy, coming from both the left and the right. Read the extensive Wikipedia article on anarchism:
There are many types and traditions of anarchism, not all of which are mutually exclusive.[5]Anarchist schools of thought can differ fundamentally, supporting anything from extreme individualism to complete collectivism.[2] Strains of anarchism have been divided into the categories of social and individualist anarchism or similar dual classifications.[6][7] Anarchism is often considered to be a radical left-wing ideology,[8][9] and much of anarchist economics and anarchist legal philosophy reflect anti-statist interpretations of communism, collectivism, syndicalism or participatory economics. However, anarchism has always included an individualist strain supporting a market economy and private property, or morally unrestrained egoism.[10][11][12] Some individualist anarchists are also socialists[13][14] while some anarcho-communists are also individualists.[15][16] The position known as anarchism without adjectives insists on "recognising the right of other tendencies to the name 'anarchist' while, obviously, having their own preferences for specific types of anarchist theory and their own arguments why other types are flawed."[17]
The central tendency of anarchism as a mass social movement has been represented by anarcho-communism and anarcho-syndicalism, with individualist anarchism being primarily a literary phenomenon[18] which nevertheless did have an impact on the bigger currents[19] and individualists also participated in large anarchist organizations.[20][21] Some anarchists oppose all forms of aggression, supporting self-defense or non-violence (anarcho-pacifism),[22][23] while others have supported the use of some coercive measures, including violent revolution and propaganda of the deed, on the path to an anarchist society.
The links show how many aspects of anarchism there are. But briefly, left-wing anarchism opposes all established power systems, as well as private property. Right-wing anarchism is an extreme libertarianism that believes the "invisible hand" of free market economics can also regulate all human interactions, making central governments unnecessary.
Anarchism accords well with postmodernism, which rejects objective truth and objective morality, and which considers all cultural institutions to be ultimately grounded in social oppression and the imposition of power. Anarchism also accords well with contemporary culture, which tends to reject all moral authority, including that of the family and religious institutions.
And isn't contemporary conservatism with its libertarianism, the Tea Party, and the overall antipathy to government part of this climate? That there may be good reasons for a certain reaction does not always justify everything that reaction turns into. The horrible working conditions of the 19th century industrial revolution made Communism seem like a good idea at the time, even though that ideology turned into an even more horrible monster. Bad government can make us want to limit it without going so far as anarchism. Still, it seems to me that conservatives need to work out clearly what they think government should do and not do, as opposed to surrendering to the anarchist impulse.
As of yesterday, the federal government is officially maxed out on the great national credit card. We reached our credit limit of $14.294 trillion. Government accountants think they can keep the bills paid using accounting tricks until August 2. In the meantime, Congress needs to raise the debt ceiling. Otherwise, the government could go into default.
Usually, raising the debt ceiling was more or less automatic, like passing resolutions celebrating Flag Day, but this time fiscal conservatives in Congress are threatening to keep that from happening unless the current administration agrees to major expenditure cuts.
Should Congress up the limit? If it doesn't, a default would surely be devastating for the economy, sending the dollar, government bonds, and foreign investment into a nosedive. Would it be worth that to make a statement about out-of-control budget deficits?

Thanks XRAY! I always liked the old VHS box art movies used to have back in the day. In some cases, at least for me, just looking over the artwork was better than watching the films because I felt that it was very difficult for the film to live up to the sheer awesomeness on the box art.

The world's largest and most successful private cloud operations are revolutionizing their approach to demand management.
These organizations have recognized that while self-service portals are a component in the overall cloud architecture, these tools do not enable demand management. In fact, in many cases the portals and end-user interfaces don't actually capture anything to do with demand, but instead force the user to enter the capacity "supply" requirements that they think will meet their demands.
This is very different. Large enterprises have recognized the need to look beyond immediate requests to also model the "pipeline" of new demands that will be coming down the road. It is only by capturing new immediate requirements, an understanding of the pipeline and what is running in environments that organizations can possibly hope to accurately model demand and properly allocate compute, storage and network resources.
In his session at 14th Cloud Expo, Andrew Hillier, Co-Founder & CTO of CiRBA, discussed these topics and cover important factors such as:
- Why self-service is not the same as demand management
- How to properly model inbound workload requirements
- Understanding spare capacity and hosting environment capabilities across compute, storage and network
- Why the fulfillment of cloud requests must factor in these capabilities and requirements
- How to provide LOB visibility and enable capacity reclamation
Speaker Bio:
Andrew Hillier is Co-Founder & CTO of CiRBA. He has twenty years of experience in the creation and implementation of mission-critical software for the world's largest financial institutions and utilities. A co-founder of CiRBA, he leads product strategy and defines the overall technology roadmap for the company.
Prior to CiRBA, Hillier pioneered a state of the art systems management solution which was acquired by Sun Microsystems and now serves as the foundation of their flagship systems management product, Sun Management Center. He has also led the development of solutions for major financial institutions, including fixed income, equity, futures & options and interest rate derivatives trading systems, as well as in the fields of covert military surveillance, advanced traffic and train control, and the robotic inspection and repair of nuclear reactors.
The 15th International Cloud Expo has just expanded its conference program, to bring together Cloud Computing, APM, APIs, Security, Big Data, Internet of Things, DevOps and WebRTC at one location.
The show now has three tracks devoted exclusively to the IoT (with WebRTC present in one of the tracks), a full single track focusing on Big Data, and a two-track DevOps Summit, in addition to four tracks devoted exclusively to Cloud Computing in the enterprise.
Cloud Expo is the single show where delegates and technology vendors can meet to experience and discuss the entire world of the cloud.
With Cloud Computing driving a higher percentage of enterprise IT budgets every year, it becomes increasingly important to learn about the latest technology developments and solutions.
Attend Cloud Expo Nov 4-6, at the Santa Clara Convention Center, CA. Craft your own custom experience. Learn the latest from the world's best technologists. Find the vendors you want and put them to the test.

Check out the sweet skullduggery at the Denver Public Library
"Colorado": Celebrating the home state. |
Halloween is long gone, but the Day of the Dead is a holiday that keeps on giving. An exhibit in the grand hall of the downtown Denver Public Library features staff-produced riffs on the tradition of decorated sugar skulls that provides -- well, plenty of food for thought.
We could rattle on about the adornment or masking of death, substituting celebration for fear, or the use of a universal typology in the service of culture-specific themes. Or we could just shut up and enjoy the show on view below.
Pictured: The homey hayseed "Rustic" contrasts with the urban glitter of "Bling"; a group portrait of "Celestial" and "Summer"; and entries titled "Headache" and "A. Phobia," which demonstrate that even the dead aren't exempt from the ills and anxieties of modern life.

Shirts - Your forefinger should be able to fit in between your collar and your neck when the shirt is buttoned to the top. If not, the collar's too tight.
Ties - Your tie point should always hang just above your belt buckle. The size (or fatness) of the tie knot should always be in proportion to the width of your collar. The wider your collar, the bigger the knot.
Trousers - Getting trousers to fit is easy. Try them first without your shoes; they should brush the floor. Then with shoes on, the back of your trousers should barely touch the ground (a good rule of thumb is that the trousers should break (crumple) about a third of the way down the shoe) Socks shouldn't show when you walk
Jeans - There are three basic styles of jeans we sell: regular, relaxed and loose.
Regular fit - is as the name implies; traditional fitting.
Relaxed fit - features more room in the seat.
Loose - (baggiest) fit includes even more fabric in the seat and thigh.
Leg styles include straight parallel and bootcut. The straight leg is narrower than the parallel, which is cut looser from the thigh. The bootcut falls over your shoe.

Comfortable and lightweight, these sweat pants are a great option to take with you on your weekend away. Pair them with a T-shirt and trainers for an assured casual look when travelling.

Pre-Code sex films refers to movies made in the pre-Code Hollywood era, between the introduction of sound in the late 1920s[1] and the enforcement of the Motion Picture Production Code in 1934, which contained sexual references that were contrary to the yet to be enforced Hays Code. These movies explored woman's issues, challenged the concept of marriage, and aggressive sexuality was the norm.
During the pre-Code period, after the crack down on crime films, production of films featuring prurient elements increased.[4][5] Studios began putting in extra suggestive material which they knew would never reach theaters. MGM screenwriter Donald Ogden Stewart said that "[Joy and Wingate] wouldn't want to take out too much, so you would give them five things to take out to satisfy the Hays Office—and you would get away with murder with what they left in."[6] In 1932, Warner Brothers' policy was that "two out of five stories should be hot", and that nearly all films could benefit by "adding something having to do with ginger."[7] Films such as Laughing Sinners, Safe in Hell, The Devil is Driving, Free Love, Merrily We Go to Hell, Laughter in Hell, and The Road to Ruin were provocative in their mere titles.[5] Studios marketed their films, sometimes dishonestly, by coming up with suggestive tag lines and lurid titles, even going so far as to come up with in house contests for thinking up provocative titles for screenplays.[8] Commonly labeled "sex films" by the censors, these pictures offended taste in more categories than just sexuality.[5] According to a Variety analysis of 440 pictures produced in 1932–33, 352 had "some sex slant", with 145 possessing "questionable sequences", and 44 being "critically sexual"."[7] The trade paper summarized that "over 80% of the world's chief picture output was...flavored with bedroom essence."[7] Attempts to create films for adults only (dubbed "pinking") only served to bring larger audiences of all ages to the cineplex.[9]
Posters and publicity photos were often tantalizing.[10] Woman appeared in poses and garb not even glimpsed in the films themselves. In some cases actresses with small parts in films, or in the case of Dolores Murray in her publicity still for The Common Law (1931),[11] no part at all, appeared barely clothed.[12]
Hays became outraged at the steamy pictures circulating in newspapers around the country.[13] The original Hays Code contained an oft ignored note about advertising imagery, but he wrote an entirely new set of advertising rules in the style of the ten commandments that contained a set of twelve prohibitions.[14] The first seven addressed imagery and prohibited women in undergarments, women raising their skirts, suggestive poses, kissing, necking, and other suggestive material. The last five concerned advertising copy and prohibited misrepresentation of the film's contents, "salacious copy", and the word "courtesan".[15] Soon, studios found their way around the restrictions and published more racy imagery. Ultimately this backfired in 1934 when a billboard in Philadelphia was placed outside Cardinal Thomas Dougherty's home. Severely offended, Dougherty helped launch the motion picture boycott that later facilitated the enforcement of the Code.[16] A commonly repeated theme by those supporting censorship, and one mentioned in the Code itself,[17] was the notion that film was a medium that greatly appealed to the masses and thus needed to be regulated.[18]
Despite the obvious attempts to appeal to red blooded American males, most of the patrons of sex pictures were female. Variety squarely blamed women for the increase in vice pictures:[19]
Women are responsible for the ever-increasing public taste in sensationalism and sexy stuff. Women who make up the bulk of the picture audiences are also the majority reader of the tabloids, scandal sheets, flashy magazines, and erotic books...the mind of the average man seems wholesome in comparison...Women love dirt, nothing shocks 'em.
Pre-Code female audiences liked to indulge in the carnal lifestyles of mistresses and adulteresses while at the same time taking joy in their usually inevitable downfall in the closing scenes of the picture.[20] And while gangster pictures were claimed to corrupt the morals of young boys, vice films were blamed for threatening the purity of adolescent women.[9]
In pre-Code Hollywood the sex film became synonymous with women's pictures—Zanuck once told Wingate that he was ordered by Warner Brothers New York corporate office to reserve 20% of the studio's output for "women's pictures, which inevitably means sex pictures."[21]
Vice films typically tacked on endings where the most sin-filled characters were either punished or redeemed. Films explored Code-defying subjects in an unapologetic manner with the premise that an end-reel moment could redeem all that had gone before.[23] The concept of marriage was often tested. In The Prodigal (1931) a woman has an affair with a seedy character, and later falls in love with her brother-in-law. When her mother-in-law steps in at the end of the film it is to encourage her husband to grant her a divorce so she can marry the brother she is obviously in love with, proclaiming the message of the film: "This is the twentieth century. Go out into the world and get what happiness you can."[24] In Madame Satan (1930) adultery is explicitly condoned and is a sign for a wife that she needs to act in a more enticing way to maintain her husband's interest.[25] And in Secrets (1933) a husband admits to serial adultery, only this time he repents and the marriage is saved.[25] The films took aim at what was already a damaged institution. During the Great Depression, relations between spouses often deteriorated due to financial strain, marriages lessened, and husbands abandoned their families in increased numbers.[26] Marriage rates continually declined in the early 1930s, finally rising in 1934 and although divorce rates lowered, this is likely because desertion was a more financially apt method of separation.[27] Consequently, female characters in pictures such as Ruth Chatterton's in Female, live promiscuous bachelorette lifestyles, and control their own financial destiny (Chatterton supervises an auto factory) without regret.[21]
One of the most prominent examples of punishment for immoral transgressions in a vice film was The Story of Temple Drake (1933), where a promiscuous woman is raped and forced into prostitution. According to Thomas Doherty, the film implies that the deeds done to her are in recompense for her immorality.[28] And in the RKO film Christopher Strong, Katharine Hepburn plays an aviatrix who becomes pregnant from an affair with a married man. She commits suicide by flying her plane directly upwards until she breaks the world altitude record, at which point she takes off her oxygen mask and plummets to Earth.[29] Strong female characters often ended films as "reformed" feminists, after experiencing situations in which their progressive outlook proved faulty.[21]
Female protagonists in aggressively sexual vice films were usually of two general kinds: the bad girl or the fallen woman.[31] In so-called "bad girl" pictures, female characters profit from promiscuity and immoral behavior.[32] Jean Harlow, an actress who was by all reports a lighthearted, kind person off the screen, frequently played bad girl characters and dubbed them "sex vultures".[33] Two of the most prominent examples of bad girl films were Red-Headed Woman (1932) and Baby Face (1933). In Red-Headed Woman, Jean Harlow plays a secretary determined to sleep her way into a more luxurious lifestyle. She seduces her boss and intentionally breaks up his marriage. During her seductions, he tries to resist and slaps her, at which point she looks at him deliriously and replies "Do it again, I like it! Do it again!"[34] They eventually marry but Harlow seduces a wealthy aged industrialist who is in business with her husband so that she can move to New York. Although this plan succeeds, she is cast aside when she is discovered having an affair with her chauffeur, in essence cheating on her paramour. Harlow shoots the original boss, nearly killing him. When she is last seen in the film, she is in France in the back seat of a limousine with an elderly wealthy gentleman being driven along by the same chauffeur.[35] The film was a boon to Harlow's career and has been described as a "trash masterpiece."[36][37] Similarly, in Baby Face Barbara Stanwyck is an abused runaway determined to use sex to advance herself financially[38] and sleeps her way to the top of Gotham Trust.[39] Her progress is illustrated in a recurring visual metaphor of the movie camera panning ever upward along the front of Gotham Trust's skyscraper. Men are driven mad with lust over her and they commit murder, attempt suicide, and are ruined financially for associating with her before she mends her ways in the final reel.[40] In another departure from post Code films, Stanwyck's sole companion for the duration of the picture is a black woman named Chico she took with her when she ran away from home at age 14.[41]
Cinema classified as "fallen woman" films was often inspired by real-life hardships women endured in the early Depression era workplace. The men in power in these pictures frequently sexually harassed the women working for them. Remaining employed often became a question of a woman's virtue.[31] In She Had to Say Yes, a struggling department store offers dates with its female stenographers as an incentive to customers.[31] And Employees' Entrance was marketed with the tag line "See what out of work girls are up against these days."[31] Joy complained in 1932 of another genre, the "kept woman" film, which presented adultery as an alternative to the tedium of an unhappy marriage.[42]
Homosexuals were portrayed in several pre-Code films such as Our Betters, Footlight Parade, Only Yesterday, Sailor's Luck, and Cavalcade.[43] Although the topic was dealt much more openly than in the decades that followed, the characterizations of gay and lesbian characters were usually derogatory. Gay male characters were portrayed as possessing a high tone voice and a flighty personality. They existed merely as buffoonish supporting characters.[44] In films like Ladies They Talk About lesbians were portrayed as rough, burly characters, but in DeMille's The Sign of the Cross a female Christian slave is brought in front of a Roman prefect and seduced in dance by a statuesque lesbian dancer.[45] Fox nearly became the first American studio to use the word "gay" in reference to homosexuality, but the SRC made the studio muffle the word in the soundtrack of all reels that reached theaters.[46] Bisexual actress Marlene Dietrich cultivated a cross gender fan base and started a trend when she began wearing men's suits, a style which was an anachronism for the 1930s. She caused a commotion when she appeared at the premiere of the 1932 Pre-Code film The Sign of the Cross in a tuxedo replete with top hat and cane.[47] The backlash against homosexual characters appearing in films was rapid. In 1933 Hays declared that all gay male characters would be removed from pictures, and Paramount took advantage of the negative publicity Dietrich generated by signing a largely meaningless agreement stating that they would not portray women in male attire.[48]

Relay for Life of Morgan County
Relay for Life of Morgan County was held Friday, June 21-Saturday, June 22. With the theme "Cancer is not a game," this year's event was held at the downtown square in Versailles. Twelve teams participated in the event, raising funds for the American Cancer Society and its programs and support groups for local cancer patients. The community walk honors survivors and caregivers of cancer patients and remembers those we've lost to cancer. The event rallies the community and individuals to fight back against the disease. The overnight event reflects the journey to beat cancer from diagnosis and the dark time of treatment to dawn and the defeat of the disease.
