EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - When it was over, and the Jets had officially completed a disastrous collapse that felt like five weeks of fingernails being dragged across a blackboard, coach Eric Mangini stepped to the microphone in the interview room and said, "I think today was somewhat of a microcosm of what we've been experiencing," which is kind of like saying that the car industry's epic collapse was "somewhat" of a microcosm for how the economy has been lately.
In truth, the 24-17 loss was exactly what the Jets had been experiencing this season and it's exactly what the Jets and their fans have been experiencing pretty much since the beginning of time. It's not just a microcosm of their past, it's a microcosm of their future, too.
That's why Jets fans shouldn't even bother worrying about the questions now facing their team. They already know what will happen. History has shown that there isn't a right or wrong answer to Jets questions; there is only the one that works out well and the one the Jets pick.
Fire Mangini? It has to be considered. Mangini is entering the last year of a contract in which he's gone 23-26 with zero playoff wins and just took a team that has a league-high seven Pro Bowlers from Super Bowl contenders in November to semi-pro in December.
Coaches in New York have certainly been fired for far less, but Jets owner Woody Johnson is the anti-Steinbrenner when it comes to making changes. When Mangini was asked if he expected to be back, he said, "Yeah, I do."
Brett Favre? He almost retired last year, and his turn at the podium yesterday sounded a lot like a farewell. He talked about his ailing shoulder and the future and the expectations, then he said, "I'm sure everyone is going to say, 'He's old and washed up' - and maybe they're right."
Even Favre would admit he looked that way over the final five games, when he threw two touchdown passes and nine interceptions, including three in the season finale. The first one yesterday was familiar: back-foot heave to an area with no green shirt anywhere to be seen, and easily intercepted by the Dolphins' defender. It was, to borrow a phrase, "somewhat of a microcosm" for how horrendous Favre played over the past month.
The arguments for cutting loose both quarterback and coach are self-explanatory. The Jets spent $140 million in free agency last offseason, and after beating Tennessee and New England earlier this year, were being hyped as one of the best teams in the league. The idea of back-to-back home championship games with the Giants began floating around, and a first-round bye in the playoffs seemed realistic.
The Jets then proceeded to lose four of their last five (they were lucky to win the one) and missed the postseason completely. It was not, as the players often said, just about "not executing." When a team has talent and falls apart like that, the coach has to take some of the blame.
But there is also a reasonable sentiment for both Mangini and Favre to return. The Jets were 4-12 last season, so this is, by definition, improvement. Plus, there's the precedent: The Giants gave Tom Coughlin a one-year extension off an 8-8 season in 2006, when calls for his firing were overwhelming; Coughlin responded by leading the Giants to the Super Bowl.
Favre, too, said he felt some measure of "unfinished business" with the Jets and would consider that sentiment as he decides whether to return for another year. Since the Jets really don't have any other obvious options at quarterback (Kellen Clemens?) and there's little available on the free-agent market (don't even think about Matt Cassel), maybe another year of Favre wouldn't be so bad. "I wish I could have held up my end of the bargain," Favre said. "This team - there's a lot of potential."
There always is with the Jets. Potential is what they do, and it sometimes feels like that the last decision that went right for them was when Sonny Werblin went after Joe Namath in 1964. Almost five months ago they went after another quarterback in Favre. As a result, they had to let go of Chad Pennington, who had fallen out of favor anyway. Pennington then signed with the Dolphins.
We know how that worked out. Yesterday, as the stadium emptied out into the night, Favre sprinted off into the locker room tunnel beneath the boos and Pennington followed a few minutes later, serenaded by "MVP!" chants from the large contingent of Dolphin fans. Miami was the AFC East champ; the Jets were also-rans again.
It wasn't "somewhat" of a microcosm. It wasn't even a microcosm at all. This is what happens with the Jets. Always has and, today at least, feels like it always will.

About Agricultural and Food Economics
Aims and scope | Open access | Article-processing charges | Indexing services | Publication and peer review process | Editorial policies | Citing articles in Agricultural and Food Economics | Why publish your article in Agricultural and Food Economics?
This page includes information about the aims and scope of Agricultural and Food Economics, editorial policies, open access and article-processing charges, the peer review process and other information. For details of how to prepare and submit a manuscript through the online submission system, please see the instructions for authors.
Aims & scope
Agricultural and Food Economics (AFE) is an international peer-reviewed and open access journal published on behalf of the Italian Association of Agricultural Economics. AFE welcomes research articles from economists, scholars and researchers from all over the world to publish problem-oriented and high quality articles. AFE publishes only original articles from a wide variety of economic perspectives that address current and relevant issues related to the agricultural and food system. AFE publishes articles focused on applied analysis, the discussion of innovative results, and relevant policy and managerial implications. AFE seeks clearly written articles from experts in the field, to promote insightful understanding of the current trends in the agri-food system.
Topics of specific interest to AFE include agricultural and food market analysis, agri-food firm management and marketing, organization of the agri-food chains, consumer behavior, food quality and safety issues, economics of nutrition and food security, food and health economics, agri-food policy and trade, sustainable rural development, natural and marine resource economics, land economics.
Open access
All articles published by Agricultural and Food Economics are made freely and permanently accessible online immediately upon publication, without subscription charges or registration barriers. Further information about open access can be found here.
Authors of articles published in Agricultural and Food Economics are the copyright holders of their articles and have granted to any third party, in advance and in perpetuity, the right to use, reproduce or disseminate the article, according to the SpringerOpen copyright and license agreement.
For authors who are US government employees or are prevented from being copyright holders for similar reasons, BioMed Central can accommodate non-standard copyright lines. Please contact us if further information is needed.
Article-processing charges
Open access publishing is not without costs. Agricultural and Food Economics therefore levies an article-processing charge of £80/$125/€100 for each article accepted for publication. If the corresponding author's institution is a Member, the cost of the article-processing charge is covered by the membership, and no further charge is payable. In the case of authors whose institutions are Supporter Members, however, a discounted article-processing charge is payable by the author. We routinely waive charges for authors from low-income countries. For other countries, article-processing charge waivers or discounts are granted on a case-by-case basis to authors with insufficient funds. Authors can request a waiver or discount during the submission process. For further details, see our article-processing charge page.
Indexing services
SpringerOpen is working closely with Thomson Reuters (ISI) to ensure that citation analysis of articles published in Agricultural and Food Economics will be available.
Publication and peer review process
Agricultural and Food Economics will publish three types of articles:
Research articles: Research articles are original contributions addressing relevant research questions. Key aims of research articles are to discuss new and interesting results of sound and rigorous scientific analysis and to disseminate new knowledge about the agri-food system. Research articles will be prevalent in AFE.
Review articles: Review articles are summaries of recent insights in specific research areas within the scope of AFE. Key aims of reviews are to provide systematic and substantial coverage of mature subjects, evaluations of progress in specified areas, and/or critical assessments of emerging technologies.
Short notes: Short articles discussing current issues of general interest in the agri-food system.
Peer review is an essential part of the publication process in AFE. It ensures that the rigorous scientific standards are met and helps authors improving their articles. The AFE editors consider peer review as a collaborative process where editors, referees and authors cooperate to achieve excellence in scientific publications.
AFE adopts double-blind peer review process to ensure independent assessment of the articles. Each article, with no exception, is reviewed independently by at least two referees of different nationalities. In case of divided judgment a third referee (or the editor) will be asked to decide.
The Editors' choice of the referees is based on many factors, including expertise, reputation, specific recommendations and our own previous experience of a reviewer's characteristics such as reliability, timeliness and cooperative attitude. As a general rule, experts of the same nationality as the authors will not be chosen as referees.
Peer review criteria
Referees are called to evaluate articles according to three main criteria:
1. Scientific soundness. Published article must meet rigorous scientific standards. The reviewers are asked explicitly to evaluate
- that conclusions are supported by adequate (and correct) scientific evidence
- the absence of reductionism bias
- the original contribution to scientific knowledge
- the consistency between the topic (problem) and the methodology
2. Relevance. Published articles must be of interest for the food system stakeholders and consistent with the aims and scope of the journal. The reviewers are asked to assess the importance of the results, the relevance of the discussion and the problem-oriented attitude of the article.
3.Clarity. Published articles must be well-written, concise, clear and accessible to a broad and diverse audience. Reviewers are asked to evaluate the style of the article with a special emphasis on clarity, consistency between the discussion and the methodology, and the avoiding of unnecessary complications.
Authors will be able to check the progress of their manuscript through the submission system at any time by logging into My Agricultural and Food Economics, a personalized section of the site.
Portability of peer review
In order to support efficient and thorough peer review, we aim to reduce the number of times a manuscript is re-reviewed after rejection from Agricultural and Food Economics, thereby speeding up the publication process and reducing the burden on peer reviewers. Therefore, please note that, if a manuscript is not accepted for publication in Agricultural and Food Economics and the authors choose to submit a revised version to another SpringerOpen journal, we will pass the reviews on to the other journal's editors at the authors' request. We will reveal the reviewers' names to the handling editor for editorial purposes unless reviewers let us know when they return their report that they do not wish us to share their report with another SpringerOpen journal.
Please see our reprints website for information about reprinting articles.
Agricultural and Food Economics will consider supplements based on proceedings (full articles or meeting abstracts), reviews or research. All articles submitted for publication in supplements are subject to peer review. Published supplements are fully searchable and freely accessible online and can also be produced in print. For further information, please contact us.

Nordex Reports 'Strong Demand' For N117/2400 Wind Turbines
NAW Staff, Thursday 03 April 2014 - 12:23:42
that over the last few weeks, demand for its wind turbines for light-wind locations has grown at an unabated rate. Thanks to recent orders, Nordex is exceeding 1 GW in installations and projects under construction using its N117/2400 machines.
In Germany alone, the company says it has received new orders totaling 132 MW for the N117/2400 in the first quarter, including from such customers as wpd group, PNE Wind AG and BOREAS Energie GmbH.
With the vending of six N117/3000 wind turbines, sale of the Generation Delta has also gotten off to a good start in the domestic market this year, the company adds. Project developer Denker & Wulf has ordered four of these turbines, which are specifically designed for moderate-wind conditions, for the Sehestedt wind farm in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein.
"We are thrilled to be able to continue the success that we achieved in Germany last year. After doubling our market share in 2013, we are now headed for a double-digit figure this year. And with the N117/3000, we are also very well positioned for IEC-2-locations," says management board member Lars Bondo Krogsgaard.

Beware the Union Label
Especially in the public sector.
Jun 18, 2012, Vol. 17, No. 38 • By JAY COST
If Walker can run against this type of narrow interest-group politics and win—in progressive Wisconsin, of all places—then so can Mitt Romney. More than anything else, the Walker victory demonstrates that conservatives can convince the country that unions are not laboring on behalf of "working families." And if conservatives can do that, they can also persuade voters that environmentalists are interested in something other than "clean air," and hustlers like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton aren't merely promoting "civil rights." The old empty communitarian rhetoric can be shown for what it is.
Of course, there is no real reason for the GOP nominee to make public sector unions a national issue; after all, federal employee unions do not enjoy anywhere near the same rights as their counterparts in the states. But Walker's victory suggests a line of attack Romney can use against Obama's major legislative initiatives.
On the stimulus, under the guise of reviving the economy, the president merely paid off his supporters in the labor unions, the environmental movement, the feminist movement, and the Congressional Black Caucus. The failed solar-panel maker Solyndra, repicient of half a billion dollars in federal loan guarantees, is the most striking illustration of how a Democratic interest won and the public lost. But there is a broader case to be made—that the stimulus failed to jumpstart the economy as the president promised because it was weighed down with patronage. Dollar for dollar, the stimulus was the single largest gift to Democratic interest groups in American history. Romney needs to make that point.
On health care, the story is similar. The president promised to make health insurance more affordable and secure. Indeed, the prime justification for pursuing the legislation so early in his tenure was that affordable health care was an essential ingredient of a sustainable recovery. But Obamacare fails to deliver; it will make insurance more expensive and less secure for millions of Americans. Time and again, the president chose not to follow through on his promises for the sake of a bevy of interest groups—traditional Democratic clients like labor, but also drug companies, hospitals, doctors, and so on. Romney has to convince Americans that, in giving special carve-outs to these well-heeled groups, Obama turned his back on the public good.
As for the financial reform bill, it offers Romney the best opportunity to rebut the president's charge that the former Massachusetts governor is a "vulture capitalist," in hock to Wall Street. The president and his allies in Congress promised to clean up the mess left behind by the 2008 implosion of the markets, but their final product actually enshrines the much-despised "too big to fail." One reason why is that Obama accepted millions from the megabanks during the 2008 campaign, much more than John McCain, and those big financial institutions sent an army of lobbyists to Capitol Hill to make sure any "reform" was amenable to them. It worked for the president's favored clients, and the public got the short end of the stick.
On all three of these issues, Romney has an opportunity to pin down Obama much as Walker stymied the public sector unions. The Wisconsin unions talked about how they were in it for the public good, but Walker made a compelling case that they were not. Similarly, Romney can point out that, Obama's communitarian rhetoric notwithstanding, his tenure has been a kind of Tammany-on-the-Potomac; under the Obama machine, it is great to be a client of this patron/president, but terrible for everybody else.
Walker has shown that this kind of argument can win. Romney can follow his lead.

|Changing trends of cesarean section births by the Robson Ten Group Classification in a tertiary teaching hospital.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22897799 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Objective. To analyze changing trends of cesarean section (CS) birth rates over an eleven-year period (2000-2010) using the Robson Ten Group Classification System (RTGCS) to identify the main contributors of the rising CS birth rates at a tertiary teaching hospital in Singapore. Design. Retrospective study. Setting. National University Hospital, Singapore. Population or Sample. All women who delivered between 1(st) January 2000 and 31(st) December 2010 (hospital maternity database). Methods. RTGCS was used to classify these women according to parity, past obstetric history, singleton or multiple pregnancy, fetal presentation, gestational age and mode of onset of labor/delivery. Main outcome measures. RTGCS results. Results. From 2000 to 2010 the CS rate increased from 19.9 to 29.6/100 births. Multiparous women with a previous cesarean birth (Group 5) were the greatest contributor to the CS rate, followed by nulliparous women, singleton cephalic full-term pregnancy in spontaneous labor (Group 1). These two groups contributed to 75% of the rise in the CS rate from year 2000 to 2010. Conclusion. The increase in CS rate is attributed largely to the rising CS rate in Group 5, followed by Group 1. We propose that future efforts to reduce overall CS rate should be focused on increasing vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) and reduce CS rates in nulliparous women with singleton cephalic full-term pregnancy (Groups 1and 2), which in turn will reduce the number of pregnant women with a previous CS.

Doc Powell
This experience led to a stint with Luther Vandross and his group, the B. B. &Q. Band, for which he also served as musical director. The group scored several R&B chart hits and made Powell a sought-after musician, working on music for projects such as The Five Heartbeats and Down & Out In Beverly Hills, as well as collaborating with artists like Aretha Franklin, Quincy Jones, Teddy Pendergrass, and Vanessa Williams. By the early '90s, Powell branched out into a solo recording career, applying his smooth, jazzy approach to albums like his 1992 debut The Doctor, 1996's Inner City Blues, and 1999's I Claim The Victory, which added gospel elements to the musical mix. In the spring of 2001 Powell released Life Changes followed by 97th and Columbus two years later. ~ Heather Phares

On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln dedicated the Soldiers' National Cemetery at Gettysburg. His address took little more than 2 minutes and, through the years, has achieved status as the most celebrated speech in American history. The nation is celebrating the 200th anniversary of Lincoln's birth this year.
Much has been written about Lincoln and the Gettysburg Address. Lincoln, the Gettysburg Address and the Soldiers' Cemetery will forever be linked together. The least written about of the three is the cemetery Lincoln came here to dedicate. As we approach Remembrance Day, there is no more appropriate time to write about the Soldiers' Cemetery.
The Soldiers' Cemetery was established as a final resting place for more than 3,500 Union soldiers who lost their lives at Gettysburg. David Wills, a local Gettysburg attorney, was appointed by Andrew Curtin, the governor of Pennsylvania, to purchase suitable ground for a cemetery, develop a plan for internment of the Union dead, and interact with the 17 other northern state governors who would participate in the process. Wills originally planned to have the Union dead buried randomly as they were re-interred in the new cemetery. Massachusetts, one of the Northern states that suffered casualties at Gettysburg, raised concerns over this plan and, as a result, the final plan adopted gave each state its own separate plot. Although not intended or foreseen, the plan had an unfortunate flaw. As soldiers were reburied, those who could be identified by name but not by state would tragically be interred in the "unknown section" of the cemetery.
The Union dead were re-buried in wood coffins placed in long, semi-circular 3-foot-deep trenches. Of the 3,512 burials, 979 were completely unknown and 1,664 were partially unknown.
Today, the Soldiers' National Cemetery is a beautiful place to visit, with its neatly kept grounds, mature trees, memorials, plaques and artillery pieces that date from the Civil War. The cannons remind us the cemetery grounds were once part of the battlefield within the Union lines on Cemetery Hill. The memorials and plaques help define, illuminate and bring meaning to the events which occurred here. Some of the more noteworthy memorials and monuments in the cemetery include:
Speaker's Rostrum
The red brick rostrum was erected in 1879 for use during memorial services. A number of American presidents have spoken from the rostrum or sat upon it during memorial services, including Rutherford B. Hayes, Theodore Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Lincoln Speech Memorial
This handsome memorial was erected in 1912 to commemorate the Gettysburg Address. The memorial does not mark the location where Lincoln gave the speech, but rather commemorates the speech itself. Etched on bronze panels on the face of the monument are the words of the Gettysburg Address and the personal letter of invitation to the president from David Wills.
The Bivouac of the Dead
This poem was written by Theodore O'Hara to commemorate American soldiers killed during the Mexican War
at the Battle of Buena Vista in 1847. Iron plaques along the walkways contain stanzas of the solemn poem.
Soldiers' National Monument
Completed in 1869, this tall and impressive monument is located at the center of the semi-circular burial plots for the Union dead. Four marble statues are situated along the base of the monument. The statues represent Ceres, the goddess of plenty; Clio, symbolizing history; and two male statues which symbolize war and peace respectively. Atop the monument is a statue named The Genius of Liberty, affectionately referred to as Liberty.
The Site Where the Gettysburg Address Was Given
Today, the best available evidence—including photographic evidence—indicates the speaker's platform stood 25 to 30 yards east of the Soldiers' National Monument, just over the iron fence, inside Evergreen Cemetery. The site is not marked.
The most moving and important aspect of a visit to Soldiers' National Cemetery is the opportunity to walk among the graves of the soldiers. Stopping here and there along the way to read some of the names of the soldiers is all you need to ponder what happened here in 1863. In a real sense, an emotional, spiritual bond is established with the soldiers as we feel a part of them and feel them with us. All of a sudden, 146 years peel away, and we feel as one with the soldiers as if they were family. They are family. Soldiers always pay the cost of freedom, and it is worthwhile to think on this for a few moments more as you walk through the cemetery. Consider visiting the cemetery during Remembrance Week or when the luminary display takes place in the cemetery. A lit candle is placed at the grave of each of the 3,512 Union soldiers in honor of their sacrifice.
I would like to leave you with my favorite quote from a soldier's tombstone from long ago:
When you go home tell them of us and say for their tomorrow we gave our today

Textile Ports Survey
With imports seemingly always in the news, what is the textile traffic through US seaports, and which ports top the list?
By Jim Borneman, Editor In Chief
To many people, those questions seem elementary, and many have an educated guess as to the answers, but in Textile World 's search for information, the hunt for a stable and reliable data source was a challenge.
Ingrid Torlay, senior market analyst of the South Carolina State Ports Authority (SCSPA), introduced TW to Leonard J. Corallo, executive vice president of Newark, N.J.-based PIERS-Port Import Export Reporting Service. Corallo agreed to collaborate with TW , and PIERS senior analyst Kim Knotts was on the case.
PIERS Global Intelligence Solutions, a division of Commonwealth Business Media Inc., analyzes more than 25,000 bills of lading every day, tracking goods as they move around the world. TW , with Knott's assistance, was able to tap into that data, isolating and categorizing the many commodity codes that relate to textiles and that have been applied to each shipment made in 2006.
The aggregate numbers are significant. The study's best estimate is that 2.54 million 20-foot-equivalent units (TEUs) — a standard quantity measure in international shipping — of total textile-related imports and exports moved through US seaports in 2006. These shipments had an estimated value of $182.3 billion.
As one might guess, apparel traffic led the way, with 48.9 percent of the total textile port TEUs and representing 62.7 percent of the total estimated value of textile traffic (See Table 1). Fabric scored second, with 23.6 percent of textile TEUs and 20.2 percent of the value, followed by home furnishings, with 12.5 percent of textile TEUs and 8.8 percent of the value.
Fiber and yarn ranked fourth, making up 9.6 percent of the textile TEUs and 4 percent of the textile estimated value. Textile machinery and parts ranked fifth, with 3.1 percent of the volume in TEUs and 2.2 percent of the value; followed closely by floor covering, with 2.3 percent of the volume and 2 percent of the value.
The leading apparel import ports in 2006 were Los Angeles, New York and Long Beach (See Table 4). Regarding apparel exports, the data point to New York, Houston, Port Everglades, and Miami as representing more than 50 percent of traffic.
The Port of Savannah led in export TEUs with more than 59,000, worth more than $1.4 billion, while Los Angeles led in value at $3.78 billion of fabric export value (See Table 5). Charleston was also a strong player in fabric imports and exports, ranking fifth in export TEUs and second in export value. Charleston ranked fourth in both imported fabric TEUs and fabric export value. Los Angeles and Long Beach led the way in fabric imports, and were second and fourth, respectively, in export TEUs.
The leading home furnishing import ports in 2006 were Los Angeles, Long Beach, New York and Charleston (See Table 6). Home furnishings exports exited the United States primarily through New York, Jacksonville, Los Angeles and Long Beach.
The Port of Charleston led in import TEUs with more than 26,000, worth more than $929 million. Other leading import ports were Los Angeles, Savannah, Long Beach and New York (See Table 7). Charleston was a close second to Seattle in fiber and yarn export TEUs, but led in fiber and yarn export value, with 31.8 percent, or $967 million, of the total fiber and yarn export value of more than $3 billion dollars. Tacoma, Port Everglades, Portland, Miami, Norfolk and Savannah all played a significant role in fiber and yarn exports in 2007.
The Port of Long Beach led the way in imports with 25.9 percent of import TEUs and 20.6 percent of import value (See Table 8). Oddly, Los Angeles, ranked fourth in import TEUs, carried the highest import value at 20.7 percent or $561 million.
Leading export ports Charleston, Norfolk and New York were followed closely by Savannah, Miami, Los Angeles and Long Beach.
The Port of Charleston led in both import and export TEUs (See Table 9). Savannah was second in exports and ranked fifth in imports. Other leading import ports were New York, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Norfolk and Houston. Los Angeles, Houston, New York and Jacksonville ranked strongly in exports. Interestingly, Port Everglades ranked eleventh in export TEUs, with just shy of 180 TEUs shipped of highly valued freight worth more than $20 million — more than sixth-ranked Jacksonville which exported 628 TEUs worth $14.7 million.
Is trade uniform across textile sectors? No, and the fact that the fabric and fiber and yarn categories are net exporters is heartening for US producers.
What US seaports are the big players in textile trade? You don't have to be an industry insider to know of the huge volume of imports moving through the ports of Los Angeles, New York and Long Beach, but there is some real insight in the data illustrating the importance of Charleston, Savannah, Houston, Port Everglades and Miami to both textile exports and imports (See Table 3).
And does the significance of the ports differ from sector to sector? Yes. As expected, the volume and value of apparel imported through Los Angeles, New York and Long Beach are very high. These three ports had imports of apparel in 2006 of greater than 658,000 TEUs, worth more than $64 billion. That represents 25.8 percent of the total textile TEUs all sectors, imports and exports combined and 35.2 percent of the total value. These ports, while significant in the other sectors particularly on the import side of home furnishings, fabric and textile machinery and parts don't dominate the export side with any consistency.
In the end, most analysts anticipate expansion and infrastructure development of the port system for years to come. As that development takes place and intermodal problems are solved, this snapshot may change, not just in terms of volume, but also in the growth of ports that have space to expand to support ever-increasing global trade.

Journal Sentinel TV and film critic Duane Dudek looks at life on the small and big screen, and some of the cool stuff on both.
Don't Call them Cartoons
What I don't know about animation could fill a book and John Kenworthy wrote it.
Kenworthy, a Kewaskum-based animation historian, is author of "The Hand Behind the Mouse: An Intimate Biography of Ub Iwerks" - which won the E.G. Lutz Award for best book about animation - and keeps track of all things animated at his website.
He will be speaking Saturday at the 7 p.m. showing of a program of the five Oscar nominated animated shorts, at the Times Cinema, 5906 W. Vliet St.
My reviews of the films are a "gee ain't they purty" equivalent of Kenworthy's scholarly and more informed analysis.
Check his website to find interviews with the directors of four of the five Oscar nominated shorts.
Kenworthy said he spent twelve years researching his book on Disney animator werks "and interviewed over 250 of the old timers during that process. I'm currently working on a book about the long-lost Tat's Tales Studio of 1935, which MAY have made the first full-length color animated feature, 'King Midas' before 'Snow White.' "
A stop action retelling of "Peter & The Wolf," won the Oscar. But my favorite is a Russian film called "Moya Lyubov," or "My Love," directed by Alexander Petrov. It is the passionate 19th century taleof a young boy's feverishly idealized romantic fantasies, poetically rendered as a series of impressionist oil paintings. When I asked Kenworthy to explain the techniques used in this film he replied enthusiastically:
"Petrov's film is amazing. It is actually oil paint on glass. Background on one, characters on others. It is like the old Fleischer / Iwerks / Willis O'Brien horizontal Multiplane Camera process. He keeps the oil alive, shoots a frame, then continues to paint. It's amazingly beautiful. It is impossible to describe what would happen if he had to reshoot something. It is the same process he used on the Oscar-winning 'The Old Man and the Sea.' "
"Unfortunately, a beautiful technique does not a great film make. Chris Robinson famously thanked Petrov for not entering (it) in his film festival. There has been a lot of controversy surrounding his use of a rotoscoping technique that he projects on the back side of the glass, but truthfully most of the nominees used something similar. They typically shoot reference films in live-action to capture movement. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's a bit of a non-issue for me, but I can go on for days about that one regarding Disney and Iwerks and what they did."
The program is worth a trip to the Times Cinema. If you don't believe me, check out the trailers for the films below.
The trailer below, for "Moya Lyubov," is in Russian, and its does not do the film justice
Below is a short film about the making of "Peter & the Wolf," a Polish and British co-production, from PBS' "Great Performances."
Interview with animators James Braithwaite and Alex Kurina of the Canadian nominee "I Met the Walrus," at the Sundance Film Festival, including clips from the fim. The story illustrates a 1969 interview of John Lennon by a 14-year old boy.
