Ben Uri's submission to Prime Minister's Holocaust CommissionPosted by Administrator | 5th June 2014
Ben Uri submitted the following document to the Prime Minister's Holocaust Commission on 30 May 2014
Ben Uri is a proud Jewish Museum of Art, currently based in St John's Wood, representing the cultural heritage of the Jewish community in the UK across all communities, nation-wide and abroad.
Ben Uri impacts over 300,000 people every year and our learning programmes are available online through the London Grid for Learning and the National Education Network to some 25,000 schools / c 8 million students.
We address the Holocaust through museum standard art exhibitions and publications such as the current/recent Roman Halter, A Life through Stained Glass which ends on June 8th 2014. A 120-page hard back catalogue was published and a separate School's Learning Module produced. Halter was a prisoner and survivor but lost most of his family. Unknowing visitors visit to see important Art and leave understanding key points and Halter's story of the Holocaust.
Ben Uri produced and updates the Art Section of the most successful LJCC's 'Holocaust Explained' website; has its own Holocaust and Art Schools module; tours internationally the exhibition Auktion 392, Reclaiming the Galerie Stern, Dusseldorf examining the issue of Nazi Stolen Art and, as a coherent part of the narrative, explains this regularly unknown part of the Nazi recipe for the Holocaust; our curators are renowned nationally and internationally for their scholarship of Émigré artists which majority revolves around the Holocaust; we are regularly invited to present papers nationally and internationally on the subject of Jewish artists / Émigré artists / Holocaust cultural property issues and much has been published.
Operating and guiding principle:
The Spielberg Principle: Maximise audience by presenting facts in the most accessible manner to engage the widest possible audiences.
Key options to define the Key Objectives of a Government led incremental initiative representing the memory and historical importance of the Holocaust in the UK:
Objectives and options:
Principal objectives: Memory / Understanding / Influence on behaviour – for the decade's pre and post 2051 – not for the next decade or two.
In our view unless the 'message' through whatever means does not set out to influence behaviour (downsizing (not belittling or diluting) the message to 'digestible portions' to instil a sense of respect for difference within our communities) then the opportunity is wasted.
1] Central Government lead a non-negotiable, relentless campaign with internet providers to address damaging content published on their servers.
2] Britain to make the Imperial War Museum the hub of Holocaust exhibition and day-out educational engagement – currently in London and Manchester. Expand their remit to Scotland – Glasgow or Edinburgh through partnership or new build – to give strong UK regional coverage.
3] Increase funding for professional Holocaust / Genocide Teacher Training across the UK.
4] Incorporate enlightened education modules within the curriculum.
5] Encourage universities to develop BA and MA courses on the subject.
6] Maximise availability and Install video personal recollections and experiences into the education process.
7] 7] Provide a blueprint for every metropolitan area with a population over 100,000 to create for Holocaust Memorial Day/ Week an art initiative centred on city/town centre exhibiting opportunities much in the vein of the 4th plinth in Trafalgar Square PLUS £ prizes against age criteria. The objective is to involve schools and community groups, local press and councils alike in creating an annual holocaust / genocide / hopeful future art fest across the country. The potential is huge – Ben Uri volunteers to assist and host an annual exhibition of the top regional works.
8] Permanent central London memorial – much prefer the 4th plinth concept to a permanent installation. Strongly suggest research to identify how (few?) Londoners know what the subject is and commemoration of for say 75%+ of all current central London memorials.
9] A separate HLF type 'Holocaust Education Fund' to be replenished annually by central government or local government or the HLF itself, to assess merit and value and provide grants for initiatives both museum and community based across the country.
10] The overall thrust should be inclusive of other 20th and 21st century genocides – each sitting alongside each other in this library of extraordinary inhumanity – the Nazi Holocaust alongside the others with their own identity – to maximise ongoing engagement. The temptation for the Jewish community to seek a memorial or soleus educational process should be avoided within this National initiative as the potential rewards for the wider society in which we live is far greater and far more valuable.
Target Audience; UK wide.
Jews – c 300,000 in the UK in 2011 compared to 56 million UK populations:
To omit a large % of the secular community denies the opportunity to influence behaviour where it is most needed.
Please refer to the attached supporting statistics (pdf) – External funding is key to any national initiative for long term benefit and the ongoing cost of these initiatives must be recognised by the majority of decision makers as in the general public's interest – otherwise they will dismantle.
Holocaust / Genocide: Alive or another piece of stale history?
Qualified educationalists are fundamental to effective and accurate engagement as the platform for all else. Regrettably Holocaust survivors will too soon no longer be able to visit schools / public meetings / TV / Radio stations and captivate their audiences with their inspiring recollections. Post say 2020 the country needs to have in place a set of options to replace and inspire – to keep the light alive and the flame burning as otherwise Holocaust / Genocide education will be as stale as WW1 was in the years to say 2012 and will be again in 2019 onwards.
Principal route of damaging inciting racial hatred and discord:
The internet – a haven for hate at the lowest level and misinformation at the highest where today Wikipedia is regularly a first stop for information even though it can be re-written ten times a day.
Necessary commitment:
We recommend to the Prime Minister's Commission the following key initiatives based on the following fundamental premises:
1] There is proportionate to the purpose and potential society rewards incremental central and local government funding guaranteed by legislation.
2] Any major capital project generating over £75,000 per annum unfunded revenue cost is rigorously analysed to ensure inherent operational sustainability.
3] The target audience is widest and most inclusive to engage most and maximise opportunities to influence behaviour across all communities.
4] Recognise separate initiatives have different audiences and purposes – e.g. Bradford compared to London,
5] Universally we resist the temptation for vanity projects / memorials and very rigorously evaluate volumes of impact and where.

Why I readJune 13,2013
Why I read
The Times Argus has been a newspaper that on a daily basis reports the Vermont news in an intelligent and common-sense manner. I remember the feature story in the paper on the Island Pond Raid of 1984. I didnt expect it to be big news, but it was. I was working at Vermont Social Services as a social worker at the time and was drafted to be at work that day and be a part of the infamous raid. The Times Argus had pictures of the raid and a great story about it. It was June 22, 1984, that the state of Vermont conducted the raid on the Northeast Kingdom Community Church in Island Pond.
Since then, The Times Argus has been a newspaper I read each day.
Theyre not afraid to report the news as it happens. Thats the way it should be.

Inflation hawks have been predicting a severe outbreak for years. But David Henderson, an economist at Stanford University's Hoover Institution and the Naval Postgraduate School, has been skeptical enough to put his money where his mouth is.
In December 2009, he publicly bet economist Robert Murphy of the Pacific Research Institute $500 that by January 2013, there would not be a single point at which the CPI would be up 10 percent or more from a year before. So far, it hasn't been, and it shows no sign it will.
Another economist who thinks inflation is the least of our worries is Scott Sumner of Bentley University in Massachusetts. He says the increase in the money supply has not unleashed inflation because the demand for dollars has risen as well.
When banks or individuals hold on to cash, he notes, the effect is the same as if the Fed were shrinking the money supply. By refusing to spend or invest, they stifle economic activity.
That effect is apparent in the slowing of the economy, which was not exactly galloping to start with. That has put job growth on a glacial pace. Three years after the recession officially ended, we have five million fewer jobs than we had before it began.
The Fed's past quantitative easing programs have helped, but they haven't been big enough or lasted long enough. Sumner argues the central bank should commit to sticking with that tactic as long as it takes to get growth back to a healthy pace -- backing off only if inflation gains a real foothold.
Could inflation make a comeback? Sure. So could the Soviet Union. But until it does, we should deal with dangers that are not imaginary.

Recon partners with Smith Optics and Scott Sports for gnarly MOD fun
The Android revolution hit the slopes just in time for the ski-season, with the release of the Recon Instruments MOD Live ski goggles adapter back in November, which Pocket-lint got up close and personal with at the CES Unveiled event in London's Tech City.
And now, the innovator of Micro Optics Display technology has announced official partnerships with Smith Optics and Scott Sports, meaning a wave of new goggles and colour-ways compatible with its MOD and MOD Live displays for skiing, snowboarding, and other snow-based activities (not snowman building though).
"We are thrilled to expand our family of world-class partnerships with the addition of these two pre-eminent global goggle brands," said Dan Eisenhardt, CEO Recon Instruments. "MOD and MOD Live will deliver a variety of real-time data to Smith and Scott's loyal skiers and riders, allowing millions of more people to enhance their experiences and relive trips on Recon HQ, our online community."
The MOD Live device boasts a snap-fit modular design and creates goggles that feature Recon's Micro-Optics Display. This means that info is displayed on the visor so as the skier or snow boarder can tap into a wealth of data and info without having to kick off the snow from their snow boats and head inside to use a PC.
The GPS-enabled specs will then provide skiers and riders with a variety of data including speed, jump analytics, vertical, altitude, location, distance, chrono/tracker, run-counter, and temperature.
The Live version (there is a basic MOD version) is Android based and, as such, comes packed with a number of apps including the ability to track your buddy's data, connectivity with your Android smartphone, a navigation app with trail maps, a music playlist app and camera connectivity.
The new Smith and Scott goggles will be on show this month at Outdoor Retailer (OR), Snow Industries America (SIA), and ISPO winter sports trade shows across the pond.
The company has also detailed ambitions to unlock a camera connectivity app for use with action cams, as well as an SDK launch in May 2012.

Product Description
Full Length Subframe Connectors with Seat Supports for 1979-2004 Mustangs.No matter what condition or how many miles are on your car, subframe connectors are a must! The frame rails end at the front and back of the floor pan and without proper support the body flexes constantly with every bump or curve in the road. Subframe connectors will greatly reduce body flex, giving the driver a much more planted feel both in the seat and on the road.
*1996-1998 Cobras must notch the transmission crossmember at the frame rails so that the subframe connectors can sit flush on the frame rails.

Business walks offer pathway to improvement
By: Gloria Young Journal Staff Writer
Use of temporary signs among owners' concerns
Visibility and flexibility are themes that resonate across the county as officials review the results of business walks over the past year. "There's a recognition for representatives of city councils, the business community and the chamber of commerce leadership that providing a little more flexibility in the coming months, at least throughout 2011, is a pretty good idea — allowing more visibility for businesses, particularly some of the newer businesses that are less established and are getting their feet on the ground and building clientele," David Snyder, director of Placer County's Office of Economic Development, said this week. During its April 21 meeting, the county's Economic Development Board reviewed reports on follow-up actions taken in Auburn, Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln and the Sunset Industrial Area. "On the Economic Development Board, we have representatives of each jurisdiction," Snyder said. "Each representative took a few minutes to talk about the walks in their cities. It was kind of a summary overview of both the walks and, more specifically, the action items or deliverables that came out of each one." A topic that surfaced during all the walks was signage. "It seemed that almost across the board, the jurisdictions were trying to work with the business community, particularly on temporary signage," Snyder said. "In more cases than not, they were trying to show as much flexibility as possible. I think in a perfect world, cities would prefer temporary signage — in particular banners, window signs, sandwich boards and those type of things, would be actually temporary as opposed to more permanent." In Auburn it's a subject that came up on the Listening to Business walks in both 2010 and 2011, according to Bruce Cosgrove, Auburn Chamber of Commerce CEO. "One specific thing that just got resolved was the city relaxing (the policy on) temporary signs," he said. "In these economic times, those temporary sign concerns are really prevalent and it has been helpful to small business to have the flexibility of doing specialized signage. So the city and county have been doing their best to accommodate that." On the other hand, some businesses have asked for enforcement of the original sign ordinance and a cleanup of some of the temporary signs. "In the process of block and enforcement efforts, we all became aware that it would be very helpful to leave the relaxed signage program in place, at least for a few months," Cosgrove said. At Ramona Lou in Downtown Auburn, owner Sommer Naffz said it is very helpful to be able to have her small sandwich sign outside the door of her Lincoln Way dress shop. "Having a small business in a small town, you have to reach out (not only to residents, but) to people travelling through the area, …" she said. "As long (as the sign) follows reasonable codes and is not obscene, it should be fine." Another thing the Economic Development Board is looking to accomplish stems from Sacramento Metro Chamber's business walks that have relevance locally. "(The Metro chamber) has been doing these walks for more than 10 years," Snyder said. "At least 10 communities have held these walks for many years. … There's a very interesting, diverse and eclectic mix of actions that have come out of each one. We shared this with the board on Thursday and we just talked briefly about these. But what we decided to do is push this back to committee to look at (the actions) in more depth." Some of the regional business walk accomplishments include chamber discount cards, ADA compliance workshops, micro loan programs and business association consolidation. The board will take up the issue again at the June meeting, Snyder said. One of the messages of this year's Auburn walk, held March 2, was more optimism, Cosgrove said. "We're not having a banner year economically," he said. "Everyone recognizes that the recovery is going to be much more long-term that we had hoped. But there is optimism in that we are surviving this and there is reason to believe that we will continue to survive. That's comforting. That came out this year in the business walk. Locally, business owners have also voiced a need for more promotion and advertising. "What was interesting is that their comments weren't that someone should do it for them, but that they should do it on their own, to promote and advertise their business," Cosgrove said. "This year, the way they responded to the business walk indicated that they had actually initiated their own self promotion and were seeing some results." Auburn's next Listening to Business walk will be in late February or early March 2012. "We see the business walk as a very beneficial program for the chamber, the city and the county," Cosgrove said. "And it's appreciated by the business community. ... We're getting positive feedback from volunteers out on the street doing the visiting and those who are being visited." For the county as a whole, the next business walk take place in Loomis in July. "At the same time, we'll include the Sunset industrial area again," Snyder said. "Most of the others have done two walks now." Reach Gloria Young at email@example.com.

The security challenge
With more than one in three users on laptops, securing mobile devices --- and the data on them -- is becoming more critical than ever. While IT can reimage a new laptop when a unit is lost or stolen, the challenge is protecting data on the missing system -- and getting it back. The major laptop vendors all offer a range of security features and options.

The X-Files – A Trio of Creepy New Posters Want to Believe
Fox has just dropped a trio of new posters for "The X-Files" on us, and they may very well be our favorite of the bunch thus far! Check 'em out!
"The X-Files" returns to Fox with a special two-night event beginning Sunday, January 24, 2016 (10:00-11:00 PM ET/7:00-8:00 PM PT), following the NFC Championship Game, and continuing with its time period premiere on Monday, January 25 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT).
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reprise their iconic roles as Agent Fox Mulder and Agent Dana Scully in a mixture of stand-alone investigative episodes and those that further the original show's seminal mythology. In the opening episode, Mulder and Scully take on a case of a possible alien abductee.
The all-new episodes will feature appearances by guest stars including Joel McHale ("Community"), Robbie Amell ("The Flash"), Lauren Ambrose ("Dig," "Six Feet Under"), Annabeth Gish ("The Bridge"), Annet Mahendru ("The Americans"), Rhys Darby ("Flight of the Conchords"), Kumail Nanjiani ("Silicon Valley"), and William B. Davis, who reprises his role as "Cigarette Smoking Man." Three of the episodes are written and directed by Chris Carter, with the remaining new episodes written and directed by original series veterans Glen Morgan, Darin Morgan, and James Wong.
"The X-Files" originally premiered in September 1993. Over the course of its nine-season run, the influential series went from breakout sci-fi favorite to massive global hit and became one of the most successful television dramas of all time. The show, which earned sixteen Emmy Awards, five Golden Globes, and a Peabody Award, follows FBI special agents Scully (Anderson) and Mulder (Duchovny) as they investigate unexplained cases – "X-Files" – for which the only answers involve paranormal phenomena. "The X-Files" is a production of 20th Century Fox Television in association with Ten Thirteen Productions. Carter is executive producer and creator of the series. Glen Morgan also serves as an executive producer.

Top 10 Cold Weather Horror Movies
As fall turns to winter, it is time to turn our attention to the great horror films that have successfully incorporated the chill of the season. While weather is a seemingly unimportant aspect of a film, these movies manage to take advantage of how cold, desolate, and frightening the winter can be… especially in a horror film.
10. Silent Night Deadly Night (1984):
Directed by Charles E. Sellier, Jr., this Christmas-themed horror movie created such controversy that Tri-Star Pictures pulled it from theaters days after it was released. Thankfully for all of us horror fans, it would eventually be re-released. It tells the story of a young boy who was institutionalized after witnessing the brutal murder of his parents by a man in a Santa outfit. In a serious lapse of judgment, he is released as an adult… at Christmastime. Donning a Santa outfit, he decides to let his freak flag fly and exact revenge on anyone and everyone during the most joyous time of year. The movie offended the PTA and a number of other religious organizations, resulting in the picketing and letter writing that eventually got the movie pulled from theaters. Of course, all that negative attention only served to make it even more popular… forever giving it cult status among horror fans.
9. 30 Days of Night (2007):
Horror fans either love or hate this vampire movie set in Barrow, Alaska. Directed by David Slade, the film capitalizes on the lore that says sunlight kills vampires. Since Barrow, Alaska, is about to experience a 30-day "polar night," it becomes a target for a clan of vampires, who descend with a vengeance. Isolated and unable to signal for help, the townspeople of Barrow must fight for their lives… for the next 30 days. Plus, with all the snow in this movie, it will definitely put you in the mood for the holidays!
8. Dead Snow (2009):
Tommy Wirkola directed this Nazi zombie flick about a group of students that have to battle the undead in the mountains of Norway. Based on Scandinavian folklore that says the dead will rise to protect their treasures, the undead in this film are Nazis who are out to protect items that were never theirs to begin with. This film became a hit with many horror fans and seems to show that whatever is going on in Scandinavian countries, it seems like they have a knack for making great horror.

Make Sure You Pick the Right Vehicle for the Zombie Apocalypse [Infographic]
If you're like most horror fans, you probably have a basic, possibly advanced, plan in mind in the extremely unlikely situation that a zombie apocalypse takes place. You know where to get food and supplies, you can rattle off a few places that offer protection and there's at least one or two places that will provide you with weapons. Zombies don't stand a chance, not with you and what you have in mind!
But wait a minute! What about your vehicle? Do you have the right wheels in order to survive? Is your car a gas guzzler? Does it have enough space to carry your gear? Can you trick it out with defensive and, if possible, offensive gear?
Below is an infographic that goes over several different kinds of cars and vehicles as well as rating them based upon several criteria. Looking at it, do you think you and your car stand a chance when faced with a horde of the undead? Or are you going to end up a zombie yourself?
"The Walking Dead" Infects Its Own Theme Park
Just a couple of weeks ago, we about Fox's plans to team up with Al Ahli Holding Group to create a series of themed attractions at a new amusement park that will open in Dubai in 2018. Now it looks like AMC's "The Walking Dead" will be getting an attraction of its own according to Slash Film.
Dubbed "The Walking Dead: Battle For Survival", the announcement came via the 2015 edition of International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions. According to the site, the ride is fully designed and ready to go. All that's holding it back is a buyer and a home for it to shuffle into. So if you were getting excited to act out your inner Glenn, looks like you're gonna have to wait a while. However, considering how massively popular the series is, I'd be surprised if it wasn't picked up in the near future.
Two photos and a video of the ride can be seen below.

New Digital One-Sheet and Trailer Take You Into The Forest
The Aokigahara Forest (青木ヶ原, also known as the Suicide Forest or the Sea of Trees) is the perfect setting for a horror film given the horrors that have taken place there. There have been several features which took place in the location, and right now we have what's being called a digital one-sheet for the next one, which is simply entitled The Forest.
Starring Natalie Dormer ("Game of Thrones," The Hunger Games), Taylor Kinney ("Chicago Fire"), Eoin Macken (The Night Shift), and Yukiyoshi Ozawa, director Jason Zada's The Forest hits theaters nationwide from Gramercy Pictures on January 8th. Dig on the image along with a new trailer below.
Rising with terrifying grandeur at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan, the legendary real-life Aokigahara Forest is the suspense-filled setting of the supernatural thriller. A young American woman, Sara (Natalie Dormer), journeys there in search of her twin sister, who has mysteriously disappeared. In the company of expatriate Aiden (Taylor Kinney), Sara enters the forest having been well warned to "stay on the path." Determined to discover the truth about her sister's fate, Sara will have to face the angry and tormented souls of the dead that prey on anyone who dares come near them. These malevolent spirits lying in wait for Sara at every turn will plunge her into a frightening darkness from which she must fight to save herself.

Fox is Exorcising the "Haunted"
Fox has annoucned that they are developing an exorcism-themed show titled Haunted, which is based off the Bob Cramner book "The Demon of Brownsville Road", according to TV Line. The Devil Inside's Brent Bell will be writing and directing.
Per the site:
The project centers on a military agent who is partnered with her ex-boyfriend, now a rogue demonologist, to help a family overcome a deadly demonic infestation of their home. The season-long case investigates the true story of one the most haunted houses in America. The believer vs. nonbeliever duo, by solving the mystery of the present, will solve the mystery of their damaged past. At its core the series will explore the age-old question, "Is evil real?"
Cramner's book came out in August last year and is an autobiographical tale of the struggles he and his family had upon moving into a house that began experiencing, "…strange phenomena".
The synopsis explains that they experienced, "…objects moving on their own, ghostly footsteps, unsettling moaning sounds…that gradually increased in violence, escalating to physical assaults and, most disturbingly, bleeding walls. Bob, Lesa, and their four children were under attack from a malicious demon that was conjuring up terrifying manifestations to destroy their tight-knit household. They had two choices: leave or draw on their unwavering faith to exorcise the malicious fiend who haunted their home."
New 'The Forest' Trailer Walks a Dangerous Path
Remember, stay on the path…
A haunting new one-sheet and trailer have been released for The Forest starring "Games of Thrones" fav Natalie Dormer, who ends up at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan where the legendary real-life Aokigahara Forest is the setting of this supernatural thriller.
In The Forest, "A young American woman, Sara (Dormer), journeys there in search of her twin sister, who has mysteriously disappeared. In the company of expatriate Aiden (Kinney), Sara enters the forest having been well warned to 'stay on the path.' Determined to discover the truth about her sister's fate, Sara will have to face the angry and tormented souls of the dead that prey on anyone who dares come near them. These malevolent spirits lying in wait for Sara at every turn will plunge her into a frightening darkness from which she must fight to save herself."
In theaters January 8th, 2016 via Gramercy Pictures, The Forest is based on an idea by David S. Goyer.
Natalie Dormer, Taylor Kinney, Eoin Macken and Yukiyoshi Ozawa all star.
'Ashen Falls' Has Been Put On Hold
Well, shoot. It seems as if the Silent Hill-esque psychological horror game Ashen Falls has gone the way of its inspiration. The duo behind it made the announcement today in a post on the game's Facebook page, which is still plastered with the incredibly imaginative concept art that left quite an impression earlier this year.
Hi everyone. It's been awhile since our last update and I'm sorry to say this is not the update we wanted to share with you.
We've been quietly trying to see if we could make Ashen Falls happen over the last couple of months. We, Gilles and David, have also been working various contracts so we would able to finance the prototype. However, we've come to a point where we have to make a huge investment of time and money to do Ashen Falls right. Unfortunately we're not able to do that at the moment and it means that we have to put the development on hold.
It really breaks our heart to have to do this, Ashen Falls is very special and dear to us and I hope there will be a way in the future to continue with it, but for now we will have to focus on other things.
We want to thank you all so much for the support, likes, messages, and comments. Your encouragement was the reason we gathered the confidence to even try.
Gilles and David
I sincerely hope that Gilles and David are able to find a way to make it happen. This concept art is far too stunning to leave its potential untapped.
Sean Cunningham Is Remaking 1986 Horror Film House
If a horror movie was released in the '80s and it hasn't yet been remade, then it's either completely irrelevant or someone just hasn't gotten around to it yet. Steve Miner's House, which hit theaters in 1986, is a favorite among fans, so it comes as no big surprise that it's up on the chopping block.
In an exclusive interview with Fangoria, House producer Sean S. Cunningham (Friday the 13th) spoke about a modern day take on the horror-comedy gem, revealing that he's currently developing a remake. Only he doesn't quite call it a remake because some big changes are being made.
"I'm doing it right now. We are deeply in development," Cunningham told Fangoria after accepting a Lifetime Achievement Award at the New York Horror Film Festival. "We worked on [a new] HOUSE about four or five years ago and determined that the structure of [the original] is extremely strong and that just remaking it in modern times wasn't going to improve it and wasn't going to change it. It would have to be rethought, and there had to be a really good reason to do it."
"Recently we came up with—and it sounds so obvious—what if we made a gender switch, so that it's not a man in the house?" Cunningham continued. "Although they're not involved, imagine HOUSE starring Kristen Wiig or Melissa McCarthy. It wouldn't be either one of them… well, it could; I mean, that's a dream. But suddenly we realized, oh wait, then everything would have to adjust. And also, if we did it that way, it would bring back the fun that HOUSE had. So that's the direction I'm committed to going in. I would love to make that movie, and I hope to be able to keep all the elements of the personal story from the Bill Katt version and still have it be fun."
Good idea? Terrible idea? Sound off below!

'A Monster Calls' Teaser Trailer Heads to a Horrific World of Creatures
Described as a visually spectacular drama, Focus Features has set The Orphanage director Juan Antonio Bayona's A Monster Calls for release on October 14, 2016.
Based on the award-winning children's fantasy novel, "12-year-old Conor (Lewis MacDougall) attempts to deal with his mother's (Felicity Jones) illness and the bullying of his classmates by escaping into a fantastical world of monsters and fairy tales that explore courage, loss, and faith."
Lewis MacDougall, Felicity Jones, Toby Kebbell, Liam Neeson, and Sigourney Weaver all star.
Bloody Disgusting has the film's first official trailer to go along with the teaser trailer that's dictated like a horrific nursery rhyme. I'm excited to see what this "world" looks like!
"The X-Files" Posters Still Want to Believe
One of three new one-sheets from Fox's "The X-Files" revival harks all the way back to the 1993 premiere of the series in which Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) has an "I want to believe" UFO poster hanging on his office wall.
Now, Fox releases a new poster that validates his beliefs, 20 years later, stating "I still want to believe."
There are two other gems, one of an eye with an "X" in it that's insanely creepy.
"The X-Files" revival airs on FOX January 24th, 2016.
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson return as Mulder and Scully, respectively, with the iconic Cigarette-Smoking Man (William B. Davis) once again playing a major role.
Joel McHale stars as Tad O'Malley, a conservative news anchor who becomes an unlikely ally for Fox Mulder.
The presumed dead Lone Gunmen – played by Tom Braidwood, Dean Haglund, and Bruce Harwood – are set to return for an undisclosed arc. Robbie Amell ("The Flash") and Lauren Ambrose (Psycho Beach Party) signed on as Agent Miller and Agent Einstein, respectively.
The all-new episodes will feature appearances by guest stars, including Joel McHale ("Community"), Annabeth Gish ("The Bridge"), Annet Mahendru ("The Americans"), Rhys Darby ("Flight of the Conchords"), and Kumail Nanjiani ("Silicon Valley").
Mitch Pileggi returns as FBI Assistant Director Walter Skinner in the new short-stack order of 6-episodes.
Three of the episodes are written and directed by Chris Carter, with the remaining new episodes written and directed by original series veterans Glen Morgan, Darin Morgan and James Wong.

'Applesauce' Clip Finds An Amputated Foot (Exclusive)
In rising filmmaker Onur Tukel's latest provocative comedy-drama Applesauce (read our review), a married man is severely tested after a string of twisted, mysterious and frightening events.
Following a world premiere at the 2015 Tribeca Film Festival, the enthusiastically reviewed film comes to digital EST and VOD from Dark Sky Films on November 24, 2015.
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive clip from the genre comedy that finds a severed foot in a laundromat.
"Every Tuesday night, radio talk show host Stevie Bricks invites his listeners to call in and share "the worst thing they've ever done." Tonight, Ron Welz (writer/director Onur Tukel) is ready to share his story. But soon after he confesses on the air, someone starts sending him severed body parts. Ron becomes paranoid, terrified. His life begins to unravel. His marriage begins to fall apart. He has no idea who's tormenting him. Is it his insolent high school student? Is it his best friend? His own wife? In a city like New York, there are eight million suspects and each one could have a bone to pick with someone like Ron."
Take dark comedy, mix it with noir, add a original and unusual movies of the year.
Applesauce, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, co-stars Max Casella (Doogie Howser M.D., Inside Llewyn Davis, Blue Jasmine), Trieste Kelly Dunn (Banshee, United 93), Dylan Baker (Spider-Man 2 and 3, Secretariat, Happiness), Jennifer Prediger (Apartment Troubles, A Teacher) and Karl Jacob (Pollywogs, The Dictator).
5 Most Cleithrophobic Horror Movie Scenes!
The other week, I asked all of you what your worst fears were, while highlighting a few of my own. One of my biggest fears is cleithrophobia, which is the fear of being trapped or locked in an enclosed space, thereby causing restricted movement. I always thought I was claustrophobic, but this is a much more distinct fear. I can handle small spaces like elevators and small rooms, but when the space is so small that I am unable to move my arms freely, I have a panic attack. Sometimes, even watching someone trapped in an enclosed space causes my heart to race and my head to spin. The films on the following list are scenes that have actually caused me to turn away from the screen.The Descent – Stuck Between a Rock and….Another Rock
The scene where Sarah gets stuck in the extremely narrow tunnel before the cave-in is one of the most traumatizing scenes for anyone who doesn't like small spaces. Her arms are unable to move and she begins to panic, which is exactly what I would do in this situation.Thir13en Ghosts/Saw V – Wall Splat
These two take the same spot on this list because they're basically the same scene, though Saw V took it to a much gorier route when Luke from Gilmore Girls Scott Patterson get's crushed between two glass walls. The idea of walls closing in on you, knowing there is nothing you can do to prevent your imminent death, is absolutely terrifying.Buried – The Whole Damn Thing
If you have cleithrophobia, don't watch Buried. The whole movie takes place inside a coffin. To make matters worse, there is a scene where a snake gets in there with him, so if you happened to catch Buried in theaters and have cleithrophobia and ophidiophobia, you probably didn't have the best experience.Aliens – Bishop In the Tunnel
This scene isn't particularly memorable, but there's something about the way Cameron frames the shot of Bishop crawling through the piping conduit (for hundreds of meters)
Do any of you also suffer from cleithrophobia? What are some movie scenes that had you sweating bullets? Let me know in the comments below or shoot me a Tweet!
'Flutter' to Home Video With XLrator Media (Trailer)
XLrator Media was released Flutter on VOD on November 17th.
"John (Joe Anderson, The Grey) is an out-of-control gambler who will do anything for money. When a mysterious new bookie starts to offer him more unusual, twisted "special" bets with bigger payoffs and greater risks, John's life spirals into a dangerous world of deceit and dare, with the stakes higher than he can ever imagine."
Giles Borg directs the thriller starring Joe Anderson, Anna Anissimova, Luke Evans, and even Billy Zane.
Here's the trailer, stills and art.
Fox Sets "Scream Queens" Two-Hour Finale
Shocking confessions are made as the Red Devil is finally unmasked and the killer revealed in the all-new "Dorkus/The Final Girl(s)," special two-hour season finale of "Scream Queens" airing Tuesday, Dec. 8 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
Read a variety of reviews by clicking here to see what you're missing.
"Wallace University is rocked by a string of murders. Kappa House, the most sought-after sorority for pledges, is ruled with an iron fist (in a pink glove) by its Queen Bitch, Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts). But when anti-Kappa Dean Munsch (Jamie Lee Curtis) decrees that sorority pledging must be open to all students, and not just the school's silver-spooned elite, all hell is about to break loose, as a devil-clad killer begins wreaking havoc, claiming one victim, one episode at a time. Part black comedy, part slasher flick, 'Scream Queens' is a modern take on the classic whodunit, in which every character has a motive for murder…or could easily be the next blood-soaked casualty."

Sean S. Cunningham to Remake Haunted 'House'
Next to Poltergeist, Ethan Wiley's 1987 House II: The Second Story (such an awesome title) scared me to death.
I know that's pretty embarrassing, but we're family here at Bloody Disgusting, and I think we can all enjoy a good laugh at my expense.
I was 7 years old and went with some family friends to see it at the theater. When the rotting gunslinger comes rising out of the food trey (see below), it freaked me out so hard that I left the theater and waited in the lobby until it was over. Now, my face turns completely red any time I revisit House II.
Anyways, I have a personally connection to the franchise, and love the first two House films, especially Steve Miner's 1986 classic in which a troubled writer moves into a haunted house after inheriting it from his aunt.
Friday the 13th's Sean S. Cunningham produced the film, and is now planning a remake.
"I'm doing [a remake] right now, Cunningham told Fangoria after accepting a Lifetime Achievement Award at the New York City Horror Film Festival. "We are deeply in development. We worked on [a new] House about four or five years ago and determined that the structure of [the original] is extremely strong, and that just remaking it in modern times wasn't going to improve it, and wasn't going to change it. It would have to be rethought, and there had to be a really good reason to do it.
"Recently, we came up with—and it sounds so obvious—what if we made a gender switch, so that it's not a man in the house?" Cunningham continued. "Although they're not involved, imagine House starring Kristen Wiig or Melissa McCarthy. It wouldn't be either one of them…well, it could; I mean, that's a dream. But suddenly we realized, oh wait, then everything would have to adjust. And also, if we did it that way, it would bring back the fun that House had. So that's the direction I'm committed to going in. I would love to make that movie, and I hope to be able to keep all the elements of the personal story from the Bill Katt version and still have it be fun."
Can you imagine a female-centric take on this classic horror story? Personally, I love the idea, and am far from anti-remake. To this writer, a good movie is a good movie, and a bad one is, well, you get.

Re: Tutorials for using Mainstage live. in response to Paul WargoI'd have to respectfully disagree about just setting up. I think the tutorial (the latest one) delves deeply into setups being mindful of cpu usage (which appears to be the crux of most users issues when performing with it) etc. Depending on what you may use it for there are also tutorials from macprovideo on creating guitar rigs also.
Check youtube there are a few there.
ps. i'm not endorsing macprovideo. i just happen to think the tutorial is very informative and useful.

Re: Tutorials for using Mainstage live. in response to Paul WargoIt depends what you do live. My setup is very simple on the hardware side, but can be quite complex inside MainStage.
My setups include:
Two vocals, one bouzouki, one guitar all controlled through MS
one electric cello plus FX in MS, one MIDI guitar driving three synths in MS plus multi-FX in MS.
All synth settings & multi-FX are controlled from an Evolution UC33 controller.
The hard part is not the live setup - MacBook Pro, Edirol FA101, Roland GI-20, Evolution UC-33 and two powered speakers - but designing the concert interface to use with the different instruments & FX.
Your best starting point will be an analysis of all the equipment you plan to use on stage. Keep asking yourself "Is this item needed? Can I do without it?" A simple lean setup is always more reliable than a complex setup. Try to simplify as much as possible, e.g. only use one keyboard unless it is absolutely essential to use more; try and control sounds & FX with as few MIDI controls as possible.
Many years of teaching have taught me that the best way to learn how to do something is to go & do it.

Jonathan Jones: Some say dictatorships spur dissident artists to be truly adventurous, but the strongest art comes from freedom
PeopleMartin Wainwright:Bill Bryson | Gordon Brown | JK Rowling | Victoria Beckham | Geri Halliwell | Beyoncé Knowles | Joseph Rowntree | Thomas Coram | William Hogarth | George Handel | Paul Gambaccini | Sir Nicholas Serota | Kate Adie | Michael Noakes | Anastasia Pollard | Lord Archer | Lord Armstrong | John Reith | Phil Redmond | Tim Smit | Alan Bleasdale | Peter Butler
The Foundling Museum, in aid of which William Hogarth persuaded a young Thomas Gainsborough to display his work The Charterhouse in 1748, is to host RSVP, an exhibition of contemporary works by 15 artists inspired by the museum's history.
Art: Forget the paintings - the genius of William Hogarth lies in in his prints says Laura Cumming.
His portraits of London's 18th-century underclass are criminally underrated. Jonathan Jones has the answer: welcome to the Hogarth Trail.
The Financial Services Authority has settled legal proceedings with Hogarth Underwriting Agencies and its managing director William Dewsall over allegations that they breached City regulations in the way they had provided insurance to policyholders.
We introduced an anachronism into our report about Lowther Castle, page 9, June 6, saying that in the 19th century the castle was visited by Boswell, Hogarth and Pitt. Boswell died in 1795, Hogarth died in 1764, William Pitt the Elder died in 1778 and William Pitt the Younger died in 1806.
A sparkling Shakespearian scene by William Hogarth, under threat of being sold from the walls of the Yorkshire house where it has hung since 1766, has been saved by a grant from the Art Fund charity.
Sculptor Jim Matheison (above) works on a cast of pug dog Trump which is to be added to the first public statue of William Hogarth.

A song of David written during the time he was running from his son Absalom.
1Lord, I have so many enemies.
So many people have turned against me.
2They say to themselves, "God will not rescue him!" Selah
3But you, Lord, protect me.
You bring me honor;
you give me hope.
4I will pray to the Lord,
and he will answer me from his holy mountain. Selah
5I can lie down to rest and know that I will wake up,
because the Lord covers and protects me.
6So I will not be afraid of my enemies,
even if thousands of them surround me.
7Lord, get up!#3:7 Lord, get up The people said this when they lifted the Box of the Agreement and took it into battle, showing that God was with them. See Num. 10:35-36.
My God, come rescue me!
If you hit my enemies on the cheek,
you will break all their teeth.
8Lord, the victory#3:8 victory Or "salvation." is yours!
You are so good to your people. Selah

Beth Neff is beginning to get the impression some members of Yorktown Town Council might not like her.
The council last month had a unique Christmas gift for the town's three-term clerk-treasurer - they cut her yearly pay by $400.
As part of a salary ordinance that gave town employees a pay hike of about 2.5 percent, the council also voted to eliminate longevity pay for Yorktown's only full-time elected official - Neff.
Council member Laura Vise proposed that change to avoid "incentivizing" people to seek re-election. Rick Glaub cast the sole dissenting vote.
During her decade in office, Neff has seen the salaries of other town employees increased. Her pay has remained at the same level, with the exception of that now-eliminated longevity perk.
"I'm not sure why I haven't been given raises," Neff told The W/R Report last week. "Maybe it's that I'm elected, or a female, in charge of the finances, speak my mind, have big feet, over 5 feet tall, a smarty pants, the 'b' word or stand up for what I believe is right.
"Whatever the reason, it does not matter because I will still stand up for what is right regardless of what I am paid."
If her salary hasn't increased, her duties have. Yorktown had 4,785 citizens when she took office in 2004. After the town's consolidation with surrounding Mount Pleasant Township, her number of constituents jumped to more than 14,000.
That consolidation eliminated the position of township trustee - and that job's $16,000 salary. Neff said she took over the bookkeeping for the township. Her base salary remained the same, in the neighborhood of $43,800 - less than that of the town manager, marshal and department heads.
"I am not saying I don't earn a nice wage," Neff said. "I am saying there is something wrong with continually adding workload without compensation. ... This is a full-time job, this is an important position and if it is not done well , then it is going to affect the community adversely."
Neff has no intention of letting her displeasure with the council impact her job performance. But she says she has been told she would have a good chance of having her pay cut overturned in court, and hasn't ruled out litigation.
Suffice it to say, the pay issue did not mark the first time the clerk-treasurer felt she was being treated unfairly by council members.
"I am the Chief Financial Officer of this community," she said. "I was elected just like the council members were and by treating me the way they do, they are taking away the rights of the voters who elected me to do the job."
Snow hanging over their heads
Readers of this column know that then-Mayor Robert Cunningham always thought public dissatisfaction over the city's response to the Blizzard of '78 cost him his re-election effort.
Mayor Dennis Tyler last week cited the epic January 1978 blizzard - which brought the area to a standstill for days - in talking to W/R about his response to last week's snowfall, which - even at 10 inches or more - was half the snow emergency of 1978.
Tyler said he didn't specifically remember the political fallout from the 1978 storm that Cunningham recalled. But he said it's definitely the case that the public will judge the way officials respond to an emergency.
"Anytime you see a potential weather emergency, any emergency, a few days away that you don't respond to properly, of course there will be political ramifications," Tyler said. "We started informing people through The Star Press and other media outlets (on the previous Friday) how we intended to provide shelter assistance and warming stations and we upgraded that Saturday. I hope they would think my administration, our street department, Sanitary District crews, provided good public service and public safety under pretty tough circumstances."
Investigator fills position on board
It's the time of year when elected officials make changes to their appointments to boards that oversee some crucial government functions.
One change last week, however, was for a much more somber reason.
Mayor Dennis Tyler appointed David Miller, a veteran investigator with the Muncie Fire Department, to the city board of works and public safety. Miller replaces Marty Campisi, who passed away late last year.
Seeking 're-election' - seven years later
In a press release last week, Republican Kim Cronk announced he was seeking "re-election" as Henry County sheriff.
And that is accurate. Cronk has served two terms as the county's sheriff. But the law enforcement veteran's stint as Henry County's top lawman ended more than seven years ago, when state law prohibited him from seeking a third consecutive term.
He was succeeded as sheriff in 2007 by fellow Republican Butch Baker. In 2010, Cronk made a failed effort to win his old job back and unseat Baker in their party's primary.
That's not to say Cronk hasn't enjoyed success at the ballot box during his post-sheriff years.
In 2006, he was elected to Henry County Council, and in 2008 and again in 2012, he won election representing the Middle District on the county's board of commissioners.

Where else but Paris would you find classical music in great historical venues. Beyond art, museums and monuments, Paris culture lives in opera, ballet, classical music concerts and theater.
You can be sure that every night there is a spectacular cultural event taking place in one of the capital's great venues.
By attending an event at the Bastille Opera House, the Salle Pleyel concert hall or Palais Garnier you'll be in the thick of the cultural activities.
Even more awe-inspiring is hearing a performance in one of the city's historic churches or cathedrals — such a La Madeleine, Notre Dame or La Sainte Chapelle.
You'll experience an Insiders Paris that few tourists discover. But make sure you reserve a seat, so we recommend that, before you leave home, you check the list of events, choose the ones you like, and order tickets in advance. And that's easy to do, using the links below.
This selection of the top venues offers the best of the city's culture. Step out of your comfort zone and attend an opera, ballet or classical music concert in the City of Arts & Culture.

There is nothing quite like an evening of amazing music in one of these historic buildings. It's haunting and completely memorable. Further down on this page you'll find links to some specific churches and cathedrals, or read our complete guide —
On the Ile de la Cité, this French Gothic masterpiece was built as Louis IX's personal cathedral. Following centuries of conflict and vicissitudes in 1862 it was named an Historic National Monument.
Today, you can visit Sainte-Chapelle (entrance is free with the Paris Pass), and, in the evening, attend concerts in this stunning landmark. Sainte-Chapelle is Paris Insiders readers' favorite concert venue.
For nearly 800 years music has been an integral part of this world famous landmark. Attending a concert in the soaring Notre Dame Cathedral is a once-in-a lifetime experience.

Opera and ballet have been integral parts of Paris culture for hundreds of years, and there's been at least one opera house in Paris continuously since 1669.
Today there are two opera houses – the classically lovely Palais Garnier at Place de la Opera, where ballet and concerts are stage, and Opera de la Bastille, home to the Paris Opera company.

Anyone here made the switch from riding primarily or exclusivly(sp) a FS bike to or back to a hardtail? When I picked riding back up about 2 years ago, I was going to get another hardtail like I had always ridden before, but found a good deal on a year end closeout and now have a FS bike. I'm thinking of building a hardtail next year, partly to have a project and also b/c I miss having a bike that will climb walls.
So have any of you gone back?

Local 360 Restaurant Review: This neighborhood restaurant's inviting interior has urban rustic charm and feels somewhat like a trendy barn with unexpected details such as silver candelabras dripping with wax. Local 360's dishes are composed primarily with ingredients culled from within a 360-mile radius of Seattle. The result is quintessential "farm-to-table" dining with a casual, down-home attitude --- and, in this case, a popular late-night scene. Dishes have included a peach and arugula salad tossed with bacon bits and fresh goat cheese, braised rabbit leg, and a juicy house burger. For lunchtime, we can't resist the chicken soup with mushroom dumplings or the vegetable potpie. Top off a meal with the almond cake or PB&J bonbons. For the budget-minded, there's a nightly three-course tasting menu for $30, and a small but affordable wine list. Among the few downsides, the dining room is noisy, and service can be spotty.

StarCraft: Burning Ground is Total Conversion for Starcraft 1. Do you like Massive Mech Battle? Do you like giant mechs fighting? Here is answer.
nice! 0.4 download soon?
this month or early July.
hopefully. it's been a while since last update.
Considering the Kel-Morians have an entire unit dedicated to Anti-Air, I feel the Anti-Air is favored by them.
However, they don't necessarily have an Air-Harassment unit.
But the roles that the Thor and Outback Hunter plays for the Dominion is split up to the Vulture, Skykiller,and Marauder, so I think that balances it out.
Thor = Good against Air, Structures, Heavy Units.
Outback Hunter = Good against Light.
Vulture = Good against Light, Structures.
Skykiller = Good Against Air.
Marauder = Good against Heavy Units.
But if we take a look at the roles of the Viking and Goliath, they play 2 same roles but different aswell.
Viking = Good Vs Light, Air
Goliath = Good Vs Medium, Air
The Viking is a much better harassment and Anti-Air unit given it's mobility, so I'd assume that for the Goliath it makes that up with extra health and firepower.
What? not same role, cuz viking is dominion only, Goliath is KMC only.
anyway, thanks for your advice.
