Cheese Chronicles: Hudson Red
Savory, gooey, and palatably -- deliciously -- bitter
Every month or so, I drop by Marion Street Cheese Market to talk to Lydia Burns about a cheese that's caught her interest. Right now, she's most excited about is a washed rind beauty called Hudson Red from Twin Maple in Ghent, New York.
When preparing Hudson Red, the Twin Maple cheesemakers "washes" the outer rind with a saline solution that draws out the Brevibacterium linens (B. linens) bacteria that gives the cheese its flavor. The B. linens bacteria, found in several other cheeses, is also found in human perspiration and, yes, this does have bearing on the aroma of this cheese.
Hudson Red is not what many cheese lovers would consider "stinky." Burns described it as "accessible, with a pleasant pungency." This is not the kind of cheese that will scare off the timid.
Hudson Red has a savory, almost beefy flavor. Washed rind cheese were popularized by Benedictine monks who are forbidden by their order to eat meat. This kind of cheese, then, might have satisfied the taste for meat among those who have vowed to "abstain entirely from eating the meat of four-footed animals."
Burns is always extraordinarily articulate when describing the flavors of cheese. "The texture is similar to a supple, springy paste, almost marshmallow-y and gooey, which is a result of the bacteria, and which would make this an excellent cooking cheese. It just melts onto your tongue. To me, it's got a very palatable bitterness, almost vegetal, like a Brussels sprout."
Beer can pair excellently with many cheeses, and washed rind cheeses can be very "beer friendly," Burns explains. "They have this bitterness and that's a huge part of beer's flavor, because hops are bitter. Bitterness has a negative connotation, but it's an essential food flavor that you need for balance. There are also yeasty flavors in Hudson Red cheese, which also makes it good for pairing with some beer."
We sampled Hudson Red with several beers, and our favorite pairing with was Little Sumpin' Sumpin' from Lagunitas that Burns said "really brings out a lot in the cheese." This is not a shy beer, but it's not overwhelming either, so it was a good match for this cheese which has personality but is not aggressive. The somewhat higher carbonation levels in this beer prove complementary as well in that the bubbles scrub the taste buds between bites, and the hoppiness of the beer seems to cut the dense richness of the cheese. "It supports the cheese," Burns believes, "and I'm always in favor of that."

Souriré!.......don't you understand what I just said......Smile!,
By Jenny J.J.I. "A New Yorker" (That Lives in Carolinas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Stand Alone [DVD] [1999] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
I have watched this film some time ago but because it's been brought back up within my friendly pack I've managed to view it again while enclosing you to read this today. I have also seen Noe's Irreversible and thought it was quite disturbing but compare to this its sort of tame.
"I Stand Alone" was the debut feature film from French filmmaker Gaspar Noé. Noé rose to cult status in 2002 with his controversial film Irréversible which, in some circles, caused quite a stir. But "I Stand Alone" is a different film entirely. It is set in France circa 1980, and tells the story of The Butcher (Philippe Nahon). Forced into retirement due to bankruptcy, he finds himself locked into a marriage with his nagging pregnant wife (Frankie Pain) and a hateful mother-in-law (Martine Audrain). Having moved from Paris hoping for a new life, he finds himself at the very bottom of the barrel living in a cramped apartment and taunted by the women every moment of the day. Then one day when confronted by his wife for cheating he snaps. This man is ANGRY! and we are made aware of it in part by occasional acts of violence, but mostly by a continual stream-of-consciousness narration in which all his bile is directed in scatter-gun fashion at the world in general. It is difficult to tell how much this character is emblematic of Noe's own beliefs; one hopes he isn't. Realizing what he's done the Butcher abandons them and returns to Paris. Poised on the edge, seething with bitterness and hatred for a world he must endure, he continues on looking for money, work and a place to stay. No one will help, not even his friends. After a barroom confrontation that leaves him filled with rage and filled with a resentment of his own life, he resorts to the one thing that makes him happy, this leads to what is quite possibly one of the most disturbing endings. I usually don't like to compare films; I like to think that each piece can stand on its own and has its own merits. But there are many films today that borrow or pay homage to classics. "I Stand Alone" is one of those films that clearly borrow from films such as Taxi Driver. You can see the trademarks in the Butcher from the Travis Bickle character in Taxi Driver (Two-Disc Collector's Edition), the loner who's ready to explode from living in an unforgiving world that simmers with bitterness and hate. There is an unavoidable depth of decay and deprivation portrayed in the character that remains stagnant throughout the film. Unlike Taxi Driver the Butcher's depression doesn't transcend to nihilism, it builds and builds as the narration reaches an unconscionable crescendo. The Butcher reaches a point where all is lost except one ray of light, the proverbial silver lining, which is .......Sorry that's all I can say but recommended to you if your curios.

Brutal and beautiful....,
This review is from: I Stand Alone [DVD] [1999] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
As a lover of French cinema, I managed to bypass this film for quite some time, before stumbling across it on Amazon. I'm so glad I did. Also, as strange as it sounds - it contains the most touching embrace between two people I have ever seen on screen and in real life. Okay - continue....
After reading the Amazon review on here, I decided to watch the prequel, a 40 minute film called "Carne", before watching the full length "I Stand Alone". I'd highly recommend doing this if you can get hold of it, (I had to download it) as it sets up this film perfectly, and you get a steady introduction to all of the characters and events that have gone before. This would still be highly enjoyable "Carne" or no "Carne" but if you want the best viewing experience possible, that would be the way to do it. It must be said that this film is not for everyone and is certainly not a feel good movie. The scenes are depressing and are often interspersed with philosophical soliloquies on the pointlessness of life, that leave you feeling overwhelmingly helpless for the duration of the film. As negative as that sounds, this only helps you to get on the same wavelength as the now homeless, unemployed butcher, Jean Chevalier. The film is littered with tactical staccato violin stabs and shotgun blasts, that punch through the silence, and refuse to let you rest. It becomes clear that Jean Chevalier is not self destructing on his own - you will be right beside him for the ride. As the film races to a nauseating climax, we are warned that we have 30 seconds in which we can decide to carry on watching, or walk away unharmed, which only adds to the tension that has been steadily building throughout the film. I must admit, I felt a childlike sense of excitement when the countdown was over, like Christmas had arrived, and prepared myself for what was to come. Please watch this film. It's wonderful!!!

I Stand Alone....,
This review is from: I Stand Alone [DVD] [1999] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
Gapar Noe is a great filmmaker. He is actually my new favorite Director and I look forward to seeing anything he touches upon seeing Irreversible which completely blew me away). It seems at first that his main focus is to take the things we have not yet endured in film and make us numb to it all.Noe is technically sound and writes an a decent screenplay here particularly the dialogue). Subtitles aside, if you speak English or French, the dialogue takes you deep into the mind of the film's "protagonist" (a character we briefly encounter in Irreversible as well).
Let's dissect the word protagonist for a moment. It can mean the principal figure or it can mean the leader of some kind of cause. Noe uses his protagonist for the former and destroys any positive connotation the word may have held at any point. Michael Corleone (The Godfather) and William Munney (The Unforgiven) are examples of villains directors are sympathetic toward, but there we find reason for their downward plunge, whether it be selfishness or simply the ever-relative feelings of retribution. These classic films pose some intriguing questions. Does real evil exist and assuming it does why should we care about what it thinks? or worse yet how we may actually see ourselves in their errors? Why can't we just put them in films and let their actions speak for themselves and let their consequences carry the audience toward a satisfying feeling of payback or resolution? This story is about an old man released from jail and attempting to live his life plagued with guilt and hopelessness. He is a sad, indirectly sorry, unrealistic and profoundly disturbed character. He is misled and careless to everything around him. The kind of person we want to ignore completely and not know anything about. The kind of person whose motivations when taken into account entirely, make many of us cringe and want to warehouse him and others of his ilk in the demonic subculture of the American Correctional Facilities. But Noe takes a different approach completely. He not only engages this character but he refuses to sympathize, he just shows us what makes him tick. The film serves as a sort of diary for this character and shows us little in way of hope. He shows us a man who rationalizes every single dark thought and action he completes regardless of the fact that they are all so impulsive, primal and damaging to everything and everyone around him. What Noe seems to understand is that the world is not always black or white, good or evil; but sometimes evil and more evil, pitch black and even darker. So here we can attempt to understand why a man would have a difficult decision to make between rape or murder, no matter how scary this proposition may sound to us. If you dare to take yourself into this character's mind then you may begin to realize that sympathy for anyone with even the potential to be like this is probably pointless, but your opinions are your own observations. Keep in mind that Noe is not an advocate for his dark characters, he is really just a host. There are no messages in his film beyond how ugly life is in some circles. I'm not sure he means to say that life is as pointless as it seems here and in Irreversible. The film is definitely not for everyone; in fact chances are you will hate it very much but if you make similar observations that I have made after watching a movie than please go right ahead, but be careful. The film does contain some extreme violence and a brief pornographic sequence that appears on a TV screen, so be wary of these elements as well.

Powerful feature-length debut from Gaspar Noe.,
By Jonathan James Romley (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Stand Alone [DVD] [1999] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
I haven't seen this film since 2003, when it was shown on Film Four shortly before the release of Gaspar Noe's second feature film, the controversial Irreversible. As a result, my opinion of it is based largely on memory, and the memory of a 19 year old at that!! So, if you'd rather read the opinion of someone more familiar with the film, then feel free, but if you'd still like to pour through my befuddled musings regardless, the plough ahead. WARNING!!! YOU HAVE 30 SECONDS TO LEAVE THIS REVIEW!!!
I Stand Alone (from the original title, Seul Contre Tous, which translates more accurately as One Against All) is Noe's take on the territory of Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver, with the film focusing on a callous, volatile, short-tempered loner, who slips further and further into the realms of madness, obsession, violence and alienation over the course of the film's 90 minute running time. The film is very much the backbone to a loose trilogy of films anchored by the character of The Butcher, who is here played with fierce intensity by Phillipe Nahon. The Butcher was first introduced in Noe's 1991 short film Carne, which began with a shot of a horse being slaughtered and subsequently a baby being born (both shown in extremely graphic detail) before following the butcher's obsessive desire for revenge after his autistic daughter is assaulted. Nahon would return in the opening (closing?) scene of Noe's masterpiece Irreversible playing a mysterious character riffing on the notion of time and destruction, whilst simultaneously, describing a course of events that seemed to reflect directly on the actions of both Carne and this. Here, the film picks up with the Butcher after he's been released from prison following his revenge spree at the end of Carne, with his life now revolving around menial employment, bouts of self-pity and domestic "bliss" with a woman who he hopes will be seduced into financing his own shop. When the woman falls pregnant she decides to pull out of the butcher's shop idea and demands that the butcher marry her instead. Incensed by this, the butcher beats the woman repeatedly in the stomach in order to terminate the pregnancy, before setting off on an odyssey into the depths of darkest despair that will eventually culminate in a grotty hotel room with a scene of taboo breaking redemption. Throughout the film, Noe establishes a cold and claustrophobic atmosphere that is far removed from the headache inducing visual style of the subsequent Irreversible. Here, the camera hardly ever moves... perhaps referencing the stoic, stubborn and emotionally detached personality of the central character? The film is also less violent, with Noe building an atmosphere of quiet brooding menace... with his use of sound and music, coupled with the rigid mise-en-scene, suggesting more than actual displays of (visceral) violence ever could. Certainly, the most savage sequence is the one described above (I felt it was important to describe this sequence, rather than allude to it, as the sequence will certainly turn off a lot of potential viewers... and I personally don't see it as a spoiler either, as the afore-knowledge that this scene exists is not enough to lessen the emotional impact that that particular moment has!!), though there is also a scene mid-way through the film in which Nahon's character goes to a porno theatre (similar to the scenes in Taxi Driver in which Bickle also attends a porn film, yet derives no pleasure from it), in which we see a very brief shot of actual hard-core penetration. The climax of the film suggests something very much taboo, though the handling of it on Noe's part is surprisingly tame (even more surprising given the B-Movie style "30 second warning" that urges viewers of a sensitive disposition to leave the film before the end - and yes, I wasn't just being pretentious when I alluded to the warning at the end of the first paragraph... it's actually in the film!!). Unless the version I saw was cut (it did have optical blurring of the hardcore porn... but Mark Kermode's introduction claimed that that was the only thing changed), then those expecting a climax similar to the scenes of intense, pornographic, violent excess found at the end (or beginning?) of Irreversible will only be disappointed, with Noe instead going for an air of tragic irony and low-key devastation. Ultimately, I Stand Alone is a powerful film full of ambition and a general air of defeated self-hatred and contempt for modern society. That said, for me the film fell short of the masterpiece tag on a number of levels... or at least, that's how I remembered it. Much of the film revolves around Nahon walking around the nocturnal streets of France narrating to himself of how much he hates the world. Nothing really happens, with the film generally feeling like it's building to something soul destroying... but then it never comes!! The film ending with a whimper, rather than a bang. As a result, the film can be quite dull, especially to those expecting the over-the-top melodrama and flashy visuals of Irreversible. As I stated above, this was my perception of the film when I was 19. Having now seen both Carne and Irreversible, I could really do with seeing this film again - with the possibility of better appreciating what Noe was trying to say - but since the film is unavailable on region 2 DVD, I don't have much of a choice (unless some kind soul reading this decides to release it on R2 DVD, uncut with a director's commentary - in French, with subtitles - and Carne included on the bonus disk!!!). I Stand Alone is a visually distinctive, slow-burning and occasionally quite powerful film (with a cold and calculated performance from the underrated Nahon) that deserves to be seen... if only to further appreciate the leap that Noe has made from knowing-provocateur, to fully-fledged auteur.

Noe's brilliant debut. Truly superb.,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Seul Contre Tous [VHS] [1999] (VHS Tape)
As it seems will be his alot for his entire career, I began to watch Seul Contre Tous with the words of many ringing in my head. Disturbing, violent and the like. Having seen Irreversible a vast number of times, and it becoming my pick for film of the last twenty years, I expected the exclamations of reviewers to be no understatement.
Once again this is a film of true brilliance, not only in its stunning acting, and its technical originality, but in its courage in tackling such positively provocative subject matter. Like Irreversible it mixes 100% unique filmaking flair with a social voice so desperately needed in the world of flat, escapist pieces of durge. Its both replusive and beautiful, but always stays tense and ready to explode. The story is simple enough, and runs on the continuous commentary, in a wonderfully gravelly voice over, from the leading protagonist. It charts his ultra pessimistic journey to his wits end. People seem to label Noe as an exaggerator of violence and emotion, but rather I feel the majority of movie goers are more accustomed to being protected by the money over message ethos of modern filmmaking. The violence is again graphically real, and serves in its genuine harshness only to show the vapidity and true horror of hollywood violence which means nothing and blunts our sensibilities. The writing is magnificient, and while the path of this man leads to a shocking conclusion of genuine distaste, his sentiments can be echoed by all those frustrated with the world who have the perception and intelligence to comprehend it. The descending theme is derivative, but only in a genre sense, this movie is unique to itself. It will certainly stay with you and it goes without saying its not for those of light disposition. Probably the point of most discussion in the ending. Its not as violent as many will have led you to believe, its the subject matter, which I feel isn't at all redeeming, which challenges beyond acceptance. This conclusion is somewhat dislocated from his previous descent subject matter, and ironically, the more satisfactory endng would have come with a bloodbath. This character goes on to appear right at the very beginning of Irreversible, so watch out for that. Any way you look at it, this film is far superior to most being created and is a must see for real film fans.

The most powerful and disturbing film you will ever see.,
This review is from: Seul Contre Tous [VHS] [1999] (VHS Tape)
The whole film follows the lead character constantly; we hear every thought. It is his thoughts that truly horrify you, by the time the violence comes you are numb. It is excellently shot, directed and WILL make you paranoid for months.
A great film, just very scary.

A real waste of time and money,
This review is from: I Stand Alone [DVD] [1999] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
This film is definitely in the top 10 most pretentious, overrated films ever made. It is crazy that it has awarded itself its own warning on the cover for a film which features one gunshot (in a fantasy scene) and a scene that leaves it to the imagination of the sexuality activity taking place. Even those who have the patience to watch subtitled films will find it extremely difficult to reach what is an anti-climatic ending after watching an old fart mope around France for almost two hours in which nothing is achieved and nothing is gained. Like certain directors, Gaspar Noe revels is his own deluded sense of genius in what is at best a slow paced, boring biographic of a man for which none could possibly sympathise or take any interest in. Save your money and time and do not waste it on this crap.

he has been very quiet the last two games. i did notice he is getting double teamed quite a bit but he doesn't see to have the opening that he usually does. are teams starting to scheme for him a little bit more since he started the season off so well? any thoughts...
Welker is not the lead guy. He is the guy that will hurt you when you focus on somebody else. The Browns focused on Welker, and hit him any chance they got, whether or not he was involved in a play. That won't happen every week, because other teams will try to take away Watson or Dante or Moss instead. Welker is always going to be there. Either he draws a lot of coverage, or somebody else does. No big deal. In prior years, Brady might have had INTs trying to force the ball to his favorite target, but this year he has a lot of favorite targets. There was a time when you simply double covered Troy Brown or Deion Branch and you took our passing game away. Not this year.
In all honesty, I think we need to develop a more solid running game for Welker to be able to open up. I don't mean to say that Morris sucks or anything, I mean to say we're very obviously a pass-first team. Teams are just playing straight up nickle against us right now. In the first couple games when defences were respecting the run a little more, they couldn't find a way to cover Moss, Stallworth and Welker at the same time; it's just about impossible. So my prediction is they either give the ball to Morris more or we see Maroney back, and Welker will be affected greatly.
Uhh aren't the Patriots like 4th in the league as far as rushing yards per game goes? edit: 3rd actually
Yeah, I'm not sure how our running game wouldn't be considered very good right now. As for Welker; some guys are going to have quiet weeks and some are going to have big weeks. We have so many weapons that no one except Moss will post real big numbers. Some weeks it'll be the Moss and Welker show, some weeks the Moss and Stallworth show, and some weeks the Stallworth and Watson show. We aren't going to get consistent production from all our weapons-- there's just too many.
what do we expect, all receivers catching for over 100 yards ? two weeks before it was where was donte. now whats up with welker. Is the opposition a javy team or something ?they can play a bit of defense too.
As someone else put it, you pick your poison. If you don't cover Welker, he can burn you up the middle. If you do cover Welker, that's one less person that can guard against Randy Moss, or Donte' Stallworth, or Benjamin Watson, . . . or crowd the box for run defense. Remember, though: Brady's favorite receiver will always be some guy named "Open." It's just that with Moss and Welker around, "Open" seems to be on the field a lot more often.
Yeah, some guys will have their quiet weeks on certain days, and others will just tear apart the secondary. It's a matter of pick your poision. The Browns decided to double Welker and Moss, then they recieved a heavy dosage of Watson.
Agreed. Let teams start to forget him. You think the Patriots ever forgot about him and look what he used to do to us?
Wrong. Troy Brown has warmed the hearts of cold, cold New Englanders for years. Of course, Bledsoe gave him a head start, but it is a record none-the-less. (A nod to the Steamer, too. I voted for him for PHOF. Just a dumb joke for the Brady era...)
he is just fine... as long as somebody is getting open welker is doing his job same with moss... the opponents secondary respects welker's ability so they always keep an eye on him leaving other guys open...
The same thing could be said for Moss this week, the reality is that the Pats play to the weaknesses of the other team. Last week the Browns focused on Moss and Welker, and Stallworth and Watson had big days. This week something different will happen, so stay tuned.

Excellent Contractor by James S. - 02/27/2012
I first found Kalos while searching for a dependable contractor to repair my broken air conditioner in the heat of summer. They promised a swift service call and within a few hours my conditioner was running again. The technician was courteous and knowledgeable of his craft. Some months later I decided to obtain bids to replace my old unit. I again selected Kalos. Their price was right and I already knew them to be trustworthy. The technicians were on time, removed the old unit and installed the new one with excellent skill and dispatch. Observing their work, I witnessed a high degree of competence and honest work ethic. They were respectful of my property during installation and left the work area free of all debris. The invoice contained no surprises, it matched the quoted price. I will definitely use Kalos Services again and I recommend them to you without reservation. Call them, you will not regret it.
Great Company by Toni - 02/07/2012
I have several rental homes, as well as my residence and I have used Kalos for regular air conditioning service as well as when air conditioning stops working. They will come out after hours or be there first thing in the morning. They are efficient, professional, respectful and go above and beyond to do excellent work. This is a family owned business and you always feel like family from the first phone call. I highly recommend them. They are Christians and the Christian values show. Thanks Kalos.
Love this company by Deuce - 02/07/2012
I have owned my home for 15 years and have used various AC companies over time. It was not until I started using Kalos that I understood what good, knowledgeable, courteous, honest, and professional service was all about. On top of all that, their pricing is fair. They exude integrity. I recommend them to everyone that needs servicing or installation of AC equipment, pool heaters, electrical work, or remodeling. I have had such great experiences in my home from them that I now also use them at my business.
My experince with Kalo's by Ron Teixeira - 01/25/2012
When I started to look for a new AC unit. I contacted three Compines and received three differant quotes for the same products 15 & 18 seer Carrier Infinity units. Not only was the price from Kalos the lowest but Bryan Orr the sales person was the friendlyest and explaind what Kalo's would do and when. On the day of instalation the installers, who's names I have forgotten, showed up and went to work they did everything Bryan said the would taken out the old unit , replacing the piping that rus from outside to the inside unit and instaling the new units all in the same day and left the are cleaner then when they came. I have found them to be a great company to do business with.

Giant Lizard
The Giant Lizard (大トカゲ?, Daitokage, lit. Large Lizard) is a giant lizard kaiju created by Toho that first appeared in the 1962 Godzilla film, King Kong vs. Godzilla.
Contents[show]NameThe name "giant lizard" makes it sound like a kaiju, but the animal is in fact at a realistic size, growing to an exhibited size of one meter. It keeps its "Giant" name when put in comparison to one of the character's heads, as that character swings the lizard above his cranium. Ootokage is a fanmade nickname which translates to giant lizard, like Oodako for the giant octopus and Ookondoru for the giant condor. HistoryShowa SeriesKing Kong vs. GodzillaOnce on Farou Island, the expedition team find the Giant Lizard while in search of King Kong. The Giant Lizard antagonizes the main characters while one of them comically spins the lizard above his head. Scared and surprised at the same time, they immediately kill the Giant Lizard with a firearm. It is after this distraction that they hear the roar of King Kong.

Creating a space where your belongings immediately find a home is a great first defense against coats flung over the back of chairs, errant mail on countertops and shoes left in the middle of the floor.
Beautifully Organized: Home Libraries of All Sizes Whether grand or small, full or empty, bursting with books or outfitted with objects, I'd wager that all of us have bookshelves of some sort in our home. Having a dedicated library room is not a luxury that all of us can have, but no matter how small your library, there are still some tips for making it as beautifully organized as possible.

New Year's Eve in Pottsville is marked by the raising of the Yuengling beer bottle to the top of the flagpole at Garfield Square. Ring in the New Year with a toast to the oldest brewery in America!
Ain't as bad as you can think. People could be rude.. Just don't look everyone in the eye..
I was born and raised here moved away 6 years ago but my mom still lives here, I visit every chance I get.. Pottsville is very rich in history and I will always call it home ❤
Very interesting, unique, facinating & extremely dated architecture in town! A lot of really nifty places to shop. Pick wild raspberries & strawberries by the gargoyle fountain!
I recently moved here in March. As with any town or city, Pottsville has its strengths and weaknesses. I find it quaint.

We stayed at the Sands Villa in Jan 2009 & loved it! The furnishings are rather dated & tired & the unit shows wear but, outside of a couple of window ledges, the unit (#522) was clean. It had the usual kitchen pots, dishes, glasses & utensils. There is free wi-fi, although the signal was weak (but sufficient). There was a small balcony with a GREAT view of the Atlantic. There is only one person on staff & no planned activities, so Sands Villa is more for those who enjoy self-directed vacations.
Being the off-season, there wasn't a whole lot open on the island. However, we still found plenty to do. There is a great aquarium on the island and one day we went to Shackleford island to see the wild ponies & look for shells. While we could not swim in the ocean, we enjoyed walks on the beach (which we practically to ourselves). The outdoor pool was closed, but the heated indoor pool was available. Most restaurants on the island were closed. While Sands Villa does have a restaurant on site, but it was only open two days a week in the off-season.
We would definitely would visit again!

Offers the clearest analysis of globalization and its negative effects that I've ever seen on a movie or television screen.
Devastating, artful, and intelligent documentary.
Black's cool-headed but blistering indictment of globalization and the racist international economic policies that have shoved that country into crushing poverty.
It's smart, instructive political cinema that tackles complex issues of the globalization with practical examples and vivid images and presents its effects in immediate human terms.
After viewing documentarian Stephanie Black's dour exegesis of the wrecked Jamaican economy -- only the most insensitive vacationer will want to set foot anywhere near the resorts and beaches of Montego Bay.
Hard to watch, harder still to ignore.
To paraphrase Nathan McCall, this film makes you wanna holler.
This is a sophisticated and unsettling documentary marred only by a voice-over taken from the writings of Jamaica Kincaid.
A searing documentary with an agenda.
What's frustrating for the viewer who wants to support the Jamaican economy is that "Life and Debt" does not suggest how Jamaica-lovers can help the island's citizens.
Employs both eloquent and down-to-earth methods to explain the complex reasons why so many of the world's developing countries remain caught in an economic quagmire that prevents them from becoming self-sufficient.
Blends compassion for individuals with explanations of the socioenonomic factors that influence them.
If you're curious about why the demonstrators are so angry, this is why they're so angry.
The only criticism that can possibly be leveled at Black's film is its narrow focus, but it's not hard to extrapolate.
Powerfully illustrates what globalization has been doing to underdeveloped countries around the world.
The damning commentary and revelations about the perils of globalization, not just for Jamaica but developing countries the world over, do come across loud and clear.
Often makes for a compelling comedy-drama about family ties. It's only when the cancer takes center stage that the movie feels like a wash.
It's an intelligent movie about economics. As such, it would probably make more sense to have it reviewed by economists than film critics.
Self-righteous, economically illiterate and sometimes flatly dishonest.
Tough to respect a documentary that doesn't play fair. Anyone interested in the subject would be better off spending Life And Debt's torturous 80-minute running time with a good article on the topic.

jrd - saw this book at the Harvard bookstore and thought of you
1963: The Year of the Revolution: How Youth Changed the World with Music, Art, and Fashion . Not that I read it... But it had a pretty cover, and it is about young people (like you), and art and music. But mainly I put the link here so you'll see the Easter Egg on the bookshelf and know I left you a note.
Quality over quantity. Check. I'm down with that.
There was this weird little stretch when I was in Taipei. We stayed in about 6 different places in Taipei, 10 total on that trip. This one place I called "The Haunted House" because it was up on a hill, and had this old English style deco. Lots of wood paneling, and weird English toilets with wooden seats that were cracking. That's when I found out about the JD Salinger stories being leaked online.
That first story had a reference to Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, which was weird, because I'd just picked up a copy of that book at the English language bookstore in Taipei. Old, free of copyright, it was cheap, and I wanted to read it again. It was a weird little rhyme. Then not but a couple weeks later, I noticed you mentioned the book as well, in a whole different context. But when you think about it, not really a different context at all. Because there is just one context, really.
I got a postcard from Shanghai the other day, when I picked up all my mail from when I was away! What a lovely surprise.
Anyway, to answer your question, yes! It will be legendary. We are our own lost generation. Is that paper of yours online? Can I go like it somewhere?
And speaking of Paris, and the lost generation, and writers, if you haven't seen it, I think you'll like this. It is better than the trailer makes it look.
Oh, and the drunk publishing. Ah, yes. That gives it a much more distinguished (and serious) air than simply drunk posting. I shall keep your wise advice in mind.
And we all float on, ok?

AT&T launches Pantech Link QWERTY phone for ten bucks Michael Kwan / Saturday, April 17, 2010, 11:18 am / No CommentsYou don't see too many Pantech phones around these parts anymore, but the Korean electronics maker is still around and it's got a new handset for all the budget-minded texters in the audience. It has just been announced that the Pantech Link will be heading to AT&T and it's going to be a bargain. While its outward appearance may lead you to believe that it's a smartphone of some kind, the Pantech Link is probably better classified as a feature or messaging phone. There's a full QWERTY keyboard on this "quick messaging phone" and it measures under 10mm in thickness.more → Posted in: Uncategorized Tagged with: att, messaging phone, pantech, pantech link, qwerty

Rogers slides out Samsung Corby Pro for $70, does multitasking Michael Kwan / Tuesday, March 16, 2010, 2:59 pm / 3 CommentsBased on the number of messaging phones that continue to flood the market, there are plenty of people out there who appreciate the inclusion of a hardware QWERTY keyboard, but can't be bothered with the complexity and price of a true smartphone. Continuing with this trend is the Samsung Corby Pro.If you didn't know any better, you'd swear that the new Samsung Corby Pro is a smartphone. But it's not. It's just a phone with a touchscreen display and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. What makes it "pro" is still unknown, but it could be the multitasking aspect, call it a slap in the face to Apple but a $70 phone allowing you to run multiple applications has gotta tell you something. If the iPhone 4G does not support multitasking, many iPhone owners may switch to the Corby Pro.. er not.more → Posted in: Uncategorized Tagged with: dumbphone, messaging phone, qwerty, rogers wireless, samsung

Tiki'Notes Typing Faster Than Swype System (Video) Michael Kwan / Monday, December 28, 2009, 9:09 am / No CommentsSome people, like me, prefer having a hardware-based QWERTY keyboard, because it feels easier typing out text messages and emails.
