Innocent Blood Harmony M.B.C., April 19, 2009 (Morning) Robert P. Myers 2Kings 24:1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him. 2Kings 24:2 And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by his servants the prophets. 2Kings 24:3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did; 2Kings 24:4 And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon. God has always taken a special interest in the murder of the innocent. In our text, He has determined to give Judah grief over the practice during the rule of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah. Hezekiah who was a faithful servant of God and a holy man, yet, Jewish history does not record, perhaps, a more wicked ruler than his son, Manasseh. It seems a shame that this man should even carry the same name as the godly son of Joseph who was the founder of the family of this name. Manasseh had been wicked beyond comprehension. Now most of us know how much wickedness God will suffer to go on at the hands and activity of evil men. We have a proof of it in the very atmosphere in which we live today. But, there is only so much God will take from the deeds of such evil creatures, at which time He will bring judgment. This is what He has revealed that He is doing to Judah as a result of that nation both honoring and following such an evil leader. Incidentally, some of you might be surprised to learn that after all the wickedness Manasseh acted out (see 2 Kings 21& 2 Chron. 33; defied and reversed all his dad's work at destroying idolatry in Judah, practiced idolatry even so far as to put an idol in the house of God; offering his children to idols; practiced sorcery, divination, etc.), he repented and the bible tells us that God pardoned him (2 Chron. 33:12-13) This should be held forth as proof that there is hope in Christ for even the most wicked sinner on the planet. Nevertheless, we find that Manasseh's repentance did not happen until he and all Judah were carried away into slavery by the king of Assyria. That is, until God afflicted them greatly in judgment. And the thing that keeps recurring in the Lord's condemnation on Judah and Israel is that they, along with their leader, Manasseh, shed innocent blood. Our text says in v. 4 that the Lord "would not pardon" this sin. There is something strikingly meaningful about the fact that God separated this particular sin from the rest of those which He lumped together as "things that he (Manasseh) did." It is a fearful thing when a nation, or a man increases wickedness to the point that God says "I will not pardon." Because, when God will not pardon, it means that He intends to execute judgment and get justice that way. He is going to withhold mercy and exact justice. Which is Page 1 exactly what He did in this case. We see also, that His judgment would be executed for a specific reason (primarily because Manasseh, and Judah, had shed innocent blood), through a specific set of events. I. First, God said "there is a specific reason why I am doing this" (vv. 3-4) "...for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did; 4 And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood # As we said earlier, the "all that he did" was about wrecking all the righteous works of his dad, idolatry, sorcery, and offering his own children to idols. > Examine Manasseh undoing righteous policies and actions of his dad (2 Kings 21:3; set up the groves and re-established idol worship in Judah): countermanding the policies and national practices that were set in place by the former national leader (Hezekiah). > Examine Manasseh's idolatry in the light of modern idolatry (2 Kings 21:3-6): placing anything man-made higher in priority than the Lord (including man-made and humanistic agendas); claiming to be a worshiper of Jehovah and then giving equal credibility to other religions and therefore, other gods > Examine Manasseh's sorcery (2 Kings 21:6): use of evil power to accomplish personal goals • Lev. 19:31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God. • Deu. 18:10-11 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, 11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. > Examine Manasseh's offering his children to idols (2 Kings 21:6): In modern day practice, this is replicated by men who raise their children in a humanistic and ambivalent environment in which they are encouraged to eliminate all moral certainties from their thinking, and in which God and His precepts are only just another way of looking a # Then, in addition to God's condemnation of the "all that he did" there was the charge against him of shedding innocent blood > We don't know exactly what this shedding of innocent blood was > God does not focus on the targets of this atrocity, He focuses on the act and the fact that the victims were innocent > He meant it to be a perpetual lesson and warning to all national leaders and people being governed > Manasseh and Judah had their offenses classified by the Lord as shedding innocent blood, our leaders and we have ours (abortion) > As I said at the start, God makes a special note of this kind of sin > He does so for certain reasons • None are so unfairly treated as those killed by their society who are innocent • None are more vulnerable in a human society that those who are innocent • None are more defenseless than the innocent • There is no violence more perverse on earth than the killing of innocent humans Page 2 - From 1973 through 2005, more than 45 million legal abortions occurred in the U.S. - How far we have come: "...by 1900 abortion was largely illegal in every state...." - - Today: legal across the entire U.S. - Some observations about Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton the two pivotal legal precedents which essentially established this completely permissive attitude by government regarding killing unborn babies: ^ "Jane Roe" of the landmark Roe v. Wade lawsuit, whose real name is Norma McCorvey, is now a strong Pro-life advocate. McCorvey writes that she never had the abortion and became the "pawn" of two young and ambitious lawyers who were looking for a plaintiff who they could use to challenge the Texas state law prohibiting abortion. However, attorney Linda Coffee says she doesn't remember McCorvey having any hesitancy about wanting an abortion. [31] ^ "Mary Doe" of the companion Doe v. Bolton lawsuit, the mother of three whose real name is Sandra Cano, maintains that she never wanted or had an abortion and that she is "ninety-nine percent certain that [she] did not sign" the affidavit to initiate the suit. II. So, God is executing judgment against Judah. He is doing that through a specific process that He outlines in vv. 1-2 A. They become servants to another nation under their current king (v.1) # Let us remember that there is a host of routes by which a nation can fall into servitude to other nations: > The most obvious: being defeated in battle # But, other less obvious: > How about loss of financial status in an economic crash and ending up being controlled economically by somebody else's currency standard? > Or, what about becoming a nation in slavery to providing foreign aid, or simply condescending to demands of other countries who would love nothing so much as to destroy our strength. > Or, what about becoming a nation whose financial institutions are controlled by other foreign countries? B. V.2: Judah was accosted by multiple forces # We can easily see the "bands of the Chaldees," or Syrians, or Moabites, or Ammonites as types of marauding circumstances that beset a nation. # Circumstances empowered by men working conspiracy which come in like pirates: > raiding our industries; > or blockading our efforts to become energy independent, > or tying up our resources chasing after global warming initiatives; > or disabling our people by making them welfare dependent. # These are the Chaldees, Syrians, Moabites, and Ammonites of our times. III. I want to close with these last few observations: Page 3 God's people (you) have a very important role to play in the unfolding events that God has in store for our nation That role centers around trusting in the Lord and representing the Lord as events unfold We must not be cowards and we must not be asleep Mark 13:37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

We had a terrific stay at the condo. The location is convenient and beautiful! The condo is exactly as shown in the photos. Highly recommend!
Had a wonderful experience at the condo. A short walk away from the beach, pool, grills, parking, laundry and a tennis court. What more could you ask for? The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. The pictures on Airbnb showing outside the windows don't do the landscape justice. Just have to be there to experience the beauty. Stephen was very responsive and professional through the booking process and continued to be helpful in answering questions through our stay. The manager and cleaning staff were also friendly and easy to get in touch with. Would definitely return if we ever have the opportunity.
Location! Location! Location! This is the perfect location! Central to everything on the island and right on the ocean! The privacy is wonderful. The accommodations are excellent! The only thing you need to bring is your own fresh food! We could not have had a better facility or experience! The problem with giving a positive review is now other people will book it up and planning a return will be a calendar challenge.
Had a great time and really loved the condo. Was great to be able to walk right out the patio door and a 30 second walk and you were on the beach or at the pool. Every morning there was a Monk seal on the beach to go see too. There's also a very nice Heiau(Grass Area Temple) right out the door that is perfect for watching Sun rises. Condo had everything we needed including tows, chairs etc for the beach. Being in Kapaa it was nice to be able go one way or the other to either side of the island.
Amazing location and lovely appointments. We spent 6 nights and enjoyed every moment. Really appreciated the quality of everything in the kitchen. It was a delightful place in which to cook. There were also public BBQ's for use right outside the lanai which were great to have access to. We appreciated the value of this condo even more when we later went to the other side of the island and spent more for accommodations that paled in comparison in both cleanliness and location. We hope to be back in Stephen's condo soon!
This condo was wonderful. Check in was very easy, it is well appointed, and the location is magical. I would love to stay here again!

I did a bad, bad thing.....
Making the charity quilts pretty much decimated my tiny stash. So I had been thinking, what am I going to do for fabric in January when I start making more quilts for the new children's home that will be built next year? Lo and behold, yesterday morning I received an email from Blue Bamboo with 70% off selected end of bolts. I've been wanting to order something from them, I love Asian prints. So I had a ball shopping and can't wait for everything to come in. I don't even know how many yards I bought, but I am afraid it is quite a bit. Hehehe. I see some quilting bees in my future in Jan and Feb, great months for having a bunch of ladies over with a pot of chili and some corn bread, ok and something chocolate.
Bev, I saw that email too and looked over their stock. What a great bunch of fabrics at such incredible prices. I'm so glad you were able to take advantage of the sale. I'm sure you'll put all the fabric to good use. I think you did a good, good thing. Lois
Bad to the bone?? A bad, bad thing. NO.
Nope - a good fabric find at 70% off is a good thing.
A couple of months back I bought 23 YARDS of good fabric from Connecting Threads because it was $2.49/yard. $2.49!!/YARD!!
It would have been wrong to leave all that fabric there, LOL, at that ridiculous price!
You're all making me feel better. I now believe it would have been criminal NOT to have taken advantage of such a great deal. LOL By the way, no coupon necessary. It looks like the 70% deal is gone, but there is still a 65% sale. Not that I am trying to lead anyone down the path with me. I am concerned I may have ordered too many plain colors and not enough print. Hmmmmmmm
Lois, I plan on taking it to retreat. I have the various sizes 9, 7, 5, 3 ready to be sashed with black and have taken a picture of the layout so I don't forget what I have in mind. The fabric I bought at Blue Bamboo turned out to be more blue than the bright turquoise I was wanting. Looked in the other quilting stores I went to for an oriental TOT but didn't find any, so bought what looks to be a batik. We'll see how it ends up. @:)
Well, well, well......and what to my wondering eyes should appear, but another 70% off sale showing up in my email at this special shop! wooohooo, I'm hoping what I bought will work together for the 9-patch pizzazz I've been wanting to make. wooowoooo
Sharon, you are evil to have pointed that out again. LOL I hadn't opened my email to see it until you posted. However, I am ahead now on fabric and must exhibit self control until I get my three daughters quilts made for Christmas. Although I will be buying fabric my daughter chose of Russian nesting dolls. So many projects, so little time.
I was really disappointed as I only received one of the fabrics I ordered. You'd think they would have made a notation those fabrics were no longer available. However, I really like the one I did receive and will continue looking for a focus fabric.

Pretty decent read. I do like urban fantasy, however, I find most of it annoying when written by female writers. Too much romance and sex in the books. I'm no prude, but it really gets in the way of a good fantasy novel. This book has just a tiny bit too much of that sort of thing, but not as bad as some. The characters are well drawn and the plot was good.
well written - wish she had more like this. fast and fun to read. Great characters

Gingerbread Snowflake Centerpiece
Whether you bake or buy your gingerbread cookies, this clever tabletop idea does double duty as dessert too.
By: Hani Bacova
Materials Needed:
- gingerbread cookies, store-bought or homemade
- royal icing, white
- pastry bag and fine tip
- pillar candle
- luster dust
- silver beads to decorate the table (optional)
Bake or Buy Gingerbread in Special Shapes
For this exact project you'll need gingerbread in the following shapes: one large scalloped base, one small snowflake, one medium snowflake, one tree, one star with center cut out and one large snowflake with a ring around it. Again, any combination of shapes will work. Just follow the same technique to create a centerpiece out of delicious baked goods. You can use this classic gingerbread recipe or try sugar cookies.
Assemble Centerpiece
Use royal icing in a pastry bag with fine tip to create dots and lines. For the large base, first outline the whole cookie in thick royal icing, then flood it with a thinner icing.
Royal Icing:
4 cups powdered sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons meringue powder
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon vanilla or lemon extract
In a clean stainless steel bowl whisk together water and meringue powder, add powdered sugar and using your stand mixer (or you can use hand held mixer, too), beat until stiff and glossy peaks are formed, about 5 minutes with stand mixer and 7 minutes with hand held mixer. Add vanilla extract and beat for an additional minute. Scrape icing into an airtight bowl, cover tightly with a lid to prevent drying.
Glue the Gingerbread in Place
When constructing these centerpieces, always make sure that you leave enough time for the pieces to dry. First, when you decorate cookies and again when you glue them on to the base using royal icing. Another tip: use support to hold them upright (this project used foil). It's best to leave them alone for several hours. Use royal icing of medium to stiff consistency to glue each piece to the base.
Write a Message
Your imagination is the limit to what you can create with gingerbread dough. You can add a message in royal icing. After the message on this project dried, it was enhanced by painting it over with luster dust. Add the candle and any other embellishments you like (silver beads, etc.) to create a centerpiece display.

This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
The staff here are really friendly as per usual in Fiji, the resort has a number of sea kyaks which are great for paddling across the channel between islands for a little exploration. It's not the cheapest place in the Yasawas but it is still reasonably priced. As I was nearing my time on the islands and was running low on money I didn't take part in many of the activities there but the food was among the best I'd eaten in Fiji, fresh and more importantly HOT, not just warm. The accommodation was great as well, we stayed in the bures near the beach front and we're nice and comfy. If you're going for tradition/basic style though this may be a bit upmarket for you

Bula Baby!
The flight to Fiji was pretty uneventful, I arrived and met Alex who I'd met in Christchurch, who's claim to fame was losing his virginity to Stacey Solomon, classy! We were staying in the same hostel so made our way there. The weather in Fiji is much more up my street. The coat was firmly shoved to the bottom of my bag as soon as I arrived.

My second day on mantaray island started with a massive breakfast, even though I was tired I managed to drag myself out of bed and it was worth it, I had lots to eat, pancakes, cakes and toast..

What is the expectation?
Sentiment: Hold
Why would they release earnings on Monday? Monday is a stock market holiday.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I don't know. That is the week they normally do.
Why do you think they would report 0.19? Is there any justification you can share ith us?
I say .19!
yahoo earnings forecast is for $.05
if they beat big,we could be up over $16
I would love that to be the case. We already know the outlook for 2013 will be very strong. Any particular reason you're nearly double the street's estimate?

I have data with 5 different fields (combination of ints, strings, and large strings) and I'd like to hold it in some sort of flat file container. I have tens of thousands of such entries but I don't have a need for any sort of database (at all, just need to iterate through data, no need to query). All the formats I've examined (XML, JSON, YAML) all require redundant fields for each entry even though my data is structured and homogenous. Something like CSV would be great except I can't use commas or new lines as delimiters. Are there any formats you'd reccomend?

Following the threads in the minor league forum for a couple years, I somehow came up with the idea that The Boss had a plate discipline problem. If he had an Achilles heel, it was supposed to be walks. So now I look at his stat line, and 41 AB into his ML career, he has 9 BB. Of course, this could be just a result of the notorious small sample size error made by many fans, but watching him play the game, I have to say that he actually seems to have good-to-very-good patience when he's up there, even against tough pitchers and when he doesn't get a hit.
So I find myself wondering about this topic in general. Was our whole "theory" about Bruce's "lack of plate discipline" just a mirage caused by the fact that he was facing inferior minor league pitching? Has he all of a sudden decided to be a more selective hitter now that he is in MLB? Alternatively, is this just a function of the pitchers not yet knowing how to pitch to him? Will these stats even out as he sees more AB in the weeks to come?
My apologies for jumping the gun after only 41 AB, but I'm really curious as to what type of player the Reds have here. We know he's good, but how good?

African Elephants in White Gold: "This time around it's much more serious because there's less elephants and more demand."
White Gold, Sydney's Pollack's Out Of Africa, starring Meryl Streep and Robert Redford, along with Michael Apted's Gorillas In The Mist starring Sigourney Weaver have one man in common, Simon Trevor, the director of White Gold.
On the red carpet at MoMA for the film's premiere he told me - "We couldn't sit by and watch all those elephants being killed without trying to make everybody aware of this."
Sigourney Weaver, Albert Maysles, Barbara Kopple, Meredith Vieira, Iman, Christie Brinkley, Stacy Bendet, Hanneli Mustaparta, Tara Subkoff, Kyleigh Kuhn, Mia Moretti with Cleo Wade, Cynthia Rowley, David Schwimmer with Zoe Buckman, among others, walked the red carpet with Chuck Close and producer Arne Glimcher in support of the cause.

Moving triumphantly away from the Harry Potter franchise, Daniel Radcliffe stars as Allen Ginsberg, one of the great poets of the beat generation in the period drama Kill Your Darlings. Directed by John Krokidas, the film follows Ginsberg through his earlier years as a writer, with excellent performances from Radcliffe, Dane DeHaan( as the seductive Lucien Carr) and Michael C. Hall as Carr's obsessed lover.
To celebrate the release of Kill Your Darlings we take a look at other renowned writers whose lives inspired critically acclaimed and award winning movies.
2006, dir. Bennett Miller
Philip Seymour Hoffman's Oscar winning turn as journalist come novelist Truman Capote centres on the relationship that evolves between the writer and his subject. The infamous inspiration for In Cold Blood, Bennett Miller's film focuses on Copote's trip to Kansas with partner Harper Lee (Catherine Keener) to research the brutal killing of a family for an article. »

Robert Redford is one of the movie stars of our time, yet I would contend that he's always been an underrated actor. There are a host of reasons for that, and they feed into each other in subtle, at times mythic ways. You could say, on the one hand, that Redford was too golden-boy pretty (always a surefire way to not get nearly the respect you deserve), or that he was too understated as a screen presence, or that he was too openly skeptical of the Hollywood game. Redford had his first major big-screen role in 1965, in Inside Daisy Clover, »

Bruno Barreto on Reaching For The Moon: "The traps of charm and seduction." Photo: Anne-Katrin Titze
Eye For Film critic Anne-Katrin Titze will moderate a Q&A at The Paris Theatre in New York City, with Reaching For The Moon (Flores Raras) director Bruno Barreto, co-screenwriter Matthew Chapman, and producer Lucy Barreto on Saturday, November 9, following the 7:00pm screening.
In my conversation with Bruno Barreto during the Tribeca Film Festival, we discussed how Deborah Kerr, co-starring with Cary Grant in Leo McCarey's An Affair To Remember, is channeled by Miranda Otto and how Sydney Pollack's Out Of Africa made for the perfect pitch, even without Meryl Streep or Robert Redford.
At the Crosby Street Hotel we began part 2 of our conversation with the actresses of Reaching For The Moon, onto the exploration of Crô: O Filme, and the Gravity of George Clooney, coming up.

Few movies can boast a real-world impact, but "Gorillas in the Mist," the biopic of slain primatologist Dian Fossey, is one of them. Released 25 years ago (on September 23, 1988), the film alerted the world to the plight of the endangered Rwandan gorillas that she'd spent 20 years studying, prompting charitable efforts that have helped preserve the primates and conserve their habitat.
But as familiar as Fossey's story is (thanks to the movie), there's still much that remains shrouded in mystery, from the identity of Fossey's killer to how Sigourney Weaver was able to ingratiate herself with Fossey's own gorillas during the filming. Here's the details behind the film, including the hardships involved in making it, which gorillas were fake, and what became of the poacher-threatened primates after the movie crew left.

Foyle's War was considered one of the best British mysteries on television, but was cancelled in 2007. Three years passed and three more episodes, known as Foyle's War Set 7 were filmed and broadcast on PBS's "Masterpiece Mystery!" The show's creator Anthony Horowitz has set the show in the town of Hastings, on the south coast of England. World War II may be over but the Cold War simmers. Dcs Christopher Foyle (Michael Kitchen, Out of Africa) has retired from police work when Britain's secret intelligence service compels him to join its ranks. Reunited with his former colleague, newlywed Sam Wainwright (Honeysuckle Weeks – My Brother Tom), Foyle faces new—but no less deadly—threats in the world of spies and counterintelligence The Foyle's War series is terrific entertainment that incorporates real historical events into the episodes.

The title Babette's Feast doesn't immediately jump out at me as a film I need to see immediately, but to know this Danish film bested Au Revoir Les Enfants (read my Blu-ray review here) at the 1988 Oscars for Best Foreign Language Film certainly causes me to change my mind. While I wouldn't say director Gabriel Axel's film is better than Malle's Enfants, which is a personal all-timer of mine, but it is a multi-layered story with drama in corners you can't expect heading in. Adapted from the 1950 short story of the same name (read it here) by Karen Blixen (writing as Isak Denisen who also wrote the story that inspired Out of Africa), the film takes place in a small village in 19th century Denmark, a town Denisen described as a "child's toy-town of little wooden pieces". The story centers on two sisters who grew up here under the watchful eye of their father, »

A lot of movies give their trailers the silent treatment, with powerful images and an evocative musical score responsible for conveying the drama. But in All Is Lost, which stars Robert Redford as an old man whose sailboat is slammed with one misfortune after another, the spare trailer accurately reflects the film, which is practically devoid of dialogue. Not that you'll miss it, or wish there was a Bengal tiger or Wilson volleyball stowed aboard as he tries to stay alive. It's just Redford, the camera, and the cruel winds of mother nature.

HBO is airing a documentary called Love, Marilyn, where celebrities ranging from Lindsay Lohan to Glenn Close (!) revisit the effect that Marilyn Monroe had on them.
Now, like you, I am a great custodian of pop culture history and want to enjoy such a love letter to the past, but something about this project annoys me. I've always felt that people aren't nearly as obsessed with Marilyn Monroe as they are with what they think of Marilyn Monroe. It's like people want to hear the words, "She was so beautiful, yet tragic, yet unknowable" tumble off their tongues. They love the mouthfeel of it. They think those words describe something, and they love condescendingly showering awe on the listless, tragic actress who still represents some mystical, feminine ideal in entertainment.
Why don't we ever hear anyone say, "Marilyn takes an amazing photo, but she was hit-or-miss as an actress"? Instead, »

A true Hollywood star, Robert Redford is at his best in smaller, more personal films. Aliya picks three great films about alienation...
Robert Redford was the number one box office star of the early 70s, appearing in huge hits such as The Sting, The Way We Were, and Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid. None of those three films show him at his best as an actor, or address the kind of issues he felt passionately about.
His easy camaraderie with Paul Newman and his status as a sex symbol belied the political angle that influenced his decisions in filmmaking and acting. Once he had amassed enough power in Hollywood to call the shots, the roles he took changed; for me, his most interesting performances began once he believed in the message of the film he was making.
He remains a serious and passionate actor, »

In Reaching For The Moon, Bruno Barreto navigates handsomely the love story between the Pulitzer prize-winning American poet Elizabeth Bishop and the Brazilian architect Lota de Macedo Soares, who designed Flamengo Park in Rio de Janeiro, making a Central Park out of a landfill with street lamps that recreate the moonlight.
In my conversation with Barreto on his poetic film, we discussed how Deborah Kerr, co-starring with Cary Grant in Leo McCarey's An Affair to Remember, is channeled by Miranda Otto and how Sydney Pollack's Out Of Africa made for the perfect pitch, even without Meryl Streep or Robert Redford. Barreto explained that Jane Campion's Bright Star on Keats and Christine Jeffs's Sylvia on Plath were not the way to go in the portrayal of Elizabeth Bishop and why Stephen Daldry's The Hours has the right intricacy.

Robert Redford plays an ageing anti-war activist in his latest movie, The Company You Keep – just one more incarnation in an ever-changing image
Robert Redford's new film sees the Hollywood liberal play a craggy radical, hiding away from a criminally subversive past under an assumed name. Once the FBI rumbles him, the agents on his trail spend some time comparing the image of his lined face to that of his much younger, 1970s, moustachioed self.
Cinema audiences across the world have travelled down that same long, ageing trail with Redford too, watching as his luminous youth in the role of Bubber in the 1966 film The Chase was gradually replaced, first by the poised cynicism of The Candidate and then by the stately leading man in Out of Africa or the worn-out sleaze of his Indecent Proposal to Demi Moore. Yet, as a man, Redford's radical zeal remains undimmed.

So, your lifelong dream of being an actor may finally be working out? Good for you. You've worked hard for this opportunity, so it makes sense you want to put your all into it.
But how can you guarantee you'll wow the audiences? Get rave reviews? Perhaps even (gasp!) win an MTV Movie Award?!
Well, none of that matters. What matters in Hollywood is getting the little gold staute, the Academy Award. And the winners of this award certainly don't get rave reviews from the (ugh!) audiences. So here's a simple and step-by-step guide for you young, aspiring actors, and how you too can join the ranks of winners!
What's that you ask? Me? No, I've never won an Academy Award. But you can still trust me! I'm a writer on the internet!

Art Deco, flapper dresses and pearls are all the rage as fashion takes inspiration from movie set in the Roaring Twenties
When Baz Luhrmann's remake of The Great Gatsby takes the prestigious opening slot at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival in May, style-watchers are predicting a visual feast that will turn many back on to the 1920s.
Every few years, a film comes along that proves to be a source of sartorial inspiration: from Audrey Hepburn's gamine princess in Roman Holiday and Diane Keaton's androgynous style in Annie Hall, to the colonial style that swept the catwalks in the mid-80s, heavily influenced by Karen Blixen's cinematic safari in Out of Africa.
Anticipation of the sixth film adaptation of F Scott Fitzgerald's novel has meant Art Deco style has already been filtering into our consciousness as designers and retailers anticipate audiences eager to mimic the opulent »

Trevor Hogg chats with Susan Beth Lehman about the creative relationship between theatre and cinema as well as her book Directors: From Stage to Screen and Back Again...
"I was born in New York City, but raised in Texas and moved to L.A. when I was a teenager," states Susan Beth Lehman who experienced some cultural confusion. "I started acting at the Alley Theater in Houston when I was 12. I have a BA in Theatre and an Mfa in Acting, both from UCLA. But La is a company town, so crossing over to film is very natural. After moving to the Philadelphia area some years ago, I started teaching in academia." A cinematic adaptation of a Steven King story has left a lasting impression on the Assistant Professor of TV and Film at DeSales University. "The end of The Shawshank Redemption [1994] is one of the most emotionally and visually »

Christopher Plummer, Jean Dujardin, Meryl Streep, and Octavia Spencer to be back at the Oscars, this time as presenters Streep, Dujardin, Spencer, and Plummer, last year's Oscar winners in the acting categories (respectively Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Supporting Actor), will return to the Oscar stage this year -- but this time as presenters on the 2013 Oscar telecast, the show's two producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan have announced. None of the four actors are in the running for the 2013 Oscars. (Pictured above: Christopher Plummer, Octavia Spencer, Meryl Streep, Jean Dujardin all looking very elegant posing for photographers backstage at last year's Academy Awards ceremony.)

Saturday! Saturday! Saturday! It's Affleck versus Spielberg! Spielberg! Spielberg! Things are coming to a head at the Directors Guild of America (DGA) Awards this Saturday night, where "Argo" will either continue it's dominance with Ben Affleck winning Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Motion Pictures or Steven Spielberg finally gaining some ground by winning for "Lincoln." Either victory will shake things up considerably. See, in case you haven't heard, Affleck failed to get a best director nomination from the Academy Awards. Apparently everyone thought that meant there was no way "Argo" could win best picture—until it went on to win top prizes at the Critic's Choice, Golden Globe, PGA, and SAG Awards. But if Affleck does win the DGA, it will be only the seventh time since 1948 that the DGA winner failed to win the Oscar. (Ironically, one of those times was in 1985, when Spielberg himself won »

Last year when writing up this column the Oscar nominations had not yet been announced. I'm not sure how much of a difference that makes in looking at the numbers and searching for a winner, but I will say with Ben Affleck (Argo) having now won Best Director at the Critics' Choice Awards and the Golden Globes, just imagine the announcement of those Oscar nominees and not hearing Affleck's name now. The bewilderment over his absence before he won back-to-back major awards was nothing compared to what it would be if the Oscars were announced this Thursday instead of last. Last night's two big winners were Argo and Les Miserables, neither of which were necessarily the first that come to mind when talking about Oscar front-runners as after the nominations most of the attention was focused on Lincoln and it's leading 12 nominations followed by Life of Pi and the Weinstein-backed Silver Linings Playbook. »
