The Amazing Spider-Man Trailer 2
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 09:49:42 02/07/12
One of the world's most popular characters is back on the big screen as a new chapter in the Spider-Man legacy is revealed in The Amazing Spider-Man. Focusing on an untold story that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story, the new film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Campbell Scott, Irrfan Khan, with Martin Sheen and Sally Field. The film is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay written by James Vanderbilt, based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Laura Ziskin, Avi Arad, and Matt Tolmach are producing the film in association with Marvel Entertainment for Columbia Pictures, which will open in theaters everywhere in 3D on July 3, 2012. The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker (Garfield), an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Ifans), his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

'Haywire' 30-Second Movie Review - BR5+
BR5's 30 Second Movie Reviews! Haywire, the new action-packed film from Steven Soderbergh is just that - action-packed film with higher level of quality - Think a borne identity with the stylization of those ocean films. As Kate Erbland from Film School Rejects has pointed out the film features an "All-Star Cast" of the guy from "Wall Street 2", "Puss in Boots", Ben Kenobi, Magneto / guy with the biggest - ya know, and John from "Dear John'". Anyways the one to watch out for is Gina Carano, she was remarkable and completely holds her own in every scene from exposition to the epic acton/fight scenes. Really impressed with her. I give the film a solid 3 westies. Check it out - in theaters now. From: BleacherReport Views: 253 5 ratings Time: 00:36 More in Entertainment

Riot Police Evict Occupy Oakland
[LESS INFO] 7 VIEWS | ADDED 18:00:06 11/14/11
Reports late Sunday night of an "imminent" raid on Occupy Oakland quickly spread to the protesters.
Via : >
"The Oakland Police Department is planning an enormous operation to evict hundreds of Occupy Oakland protesters from their encampment near City Hall early Monday morning, according to police and city officials with direct knowledge of the plans." >
"Oakland has agreed to pay for 700-to-1,000 officers from numerous agencies to be deployed over the next three days, according to an Oakland official who agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity. The operation was shaping up as the largest and most expensive police action in Oakland in recent memory." >
"The cost of the operation could reach $1 million, the official said. Combined with the city's previous effort to evict the protesters, including at least two violent clashes, cleanup and private security that may be hired to prevent the protesters from resettling on the plaza, the overall cost of Occupy Oakland could reach $5 million, he said."
The city of Oakland closed 13 schools this year to "save" $2 million. Crushing a group of peaceful campers? Priceless.
Thirty-two people were arrested today, including many clergy members, and Occupy Oakland's tent city has been dismantled .
The decision to evict the protesters by Mayor Jean Quan has cost her more than the $1 million she shelled out for extra police back-up. Dan Siegel, Quan's legal adviser, posted on Facebook that he has resigned over Monday's police raid of Occupy Oakland.
Via : >
His Facebook post: "No longer Mayor Quan's legal adviser. Resigned at 2 am. Support Occupy Oakland, not the 1% and its government facilitators." >
Siegel and Quan have been friends for decades, since they attended University of California, Berkeley together. Siegel was on Quan's transition team before she took office in January and stayed on as an adviser after that, drawing controversy when he openly opposed a gang injunction policy sought by the city attorney.
I wonder if Jean Quan is aware that there are people camping outside of the movie theaters waiting to see the latest "Twilight" movie? Die-hard "Twilight" fans beware!

Occupy Oakland Shuts Down City
[LESS INFO] 1 VIEWS | ADDED 17:00:06 11/03/11
An estimated crowd of 10,000 Occupy Wall Street protesters took to the streets of Oakland in what activists call the nation’s first general strike since 1946 .
Labor unions and teachers' organizations pledged support. Hundreds of teachers didn't show up for work , but the district was able to find substitutes and the schools remained open. Several businesses, including the Grand Lake Theater and Men’s Wearhouse, closed in solidarity.
Despite the longshoremen's union's efforts to keep the Port of Oakland open, maritime operations at the port have been officially shut down by protesters.
Also, while the day's events were peaceful, there were some incidents of rowdiness as windows were smashed, and graffitti spray-painted on some businesses. The Occupy protesters could be seen trying to stop those who were committing acts of vandalism, and even returning to clean up graffitti from defaced buildings. Mayor Jean Quan praised the protesters for their efforts towards keeping the event peaceful.
The businesses that suffered vandalism then became a sort of "tourist attraction" as people gathered to photograph the damage, and some even gathered shards of broken glass to keep as souvenirs.
At one intersection, two protesters were injured when they were struck by a Mercedes Benz. (Does anyone else see the irony there?) Witnesses say the pedestrians were struck intentionally, and became angry when the driver was released by the police. Neither of the protesters are said to have life-threatening injuries.
Then tensions escalated late Thursday after a group of protesters took over an abandoned building. Police cleared the building with tear-gas and flashbang grenades. Riot police then proceeded to raid the protesters' main camp, arresting between 30 and 40 people .

Bryan Ferry Lets It Rock ... again

Bryan Ferry "Cherry-Poppin'' Stories
I'll go first:
I anticipate Bryan's show at the Greek Theater Oct. 15.
My favorite Roxy show of many was in a little town in Lorraine (Salzbourg, actually), France, circa 1974. The band played in a high school gym, which they transported to the sophisticated realms of Radio City once the music started. I think I wrote about it in my piece on the trip for Crawdaddy , but being now a denizen of the"aging crowd," I can't find this piece of writing anywhere except in the smoke dreams of my mind.
This just in!
I did go to the concert and grabbed this little snippet of Chris Spedding on vid .
... to which Bruce Malamut adds the following comment:
> "I remember you also liked Spedding's first three solo albums Songs Without Words, Backwoods Progression (recorded in-between Nilsson Schmilsson sessions) and The Only Lick I Know. Spedding is copious!"
Like Ferry, I like to think I have aged like a fine wine.
But the ultimate erudite benediction comes from the great Bruce Malamut, of the Kings Crown Radio (WKCR) mavens and the Crawdaddy Magazine punters – what are you, some kinda rock crit or sump'n?:
"Style + Substance, well hell yeah – the thrill of it all! I saw Roxy play The 100 Club London, June, '71 and was floored by the hooks, the asymmetries, the film noir refs, the pounding pose of ennui and anti-romanticism, electronic sheen and wailing sax ... oboe, even – these guys screamed avant-garde, loud, hard rock, but I just fully dug the hooks!
"Then the first album was released in '72 and it became clear to all – some of the best players in UK in one band tossing off hooks and choruses effortlessly – sweet! I give it an A- for Side One, which was Ferry's full-tilt rock, and A+ for Side Two, which debuted Eno's virtual keyboard world. There seemed a palpable tension between these two guys live – each a forceful leader in his own right – and it was clear on their first album as well. One of them might need to leave this band, I'd thought, and chart his own path. To me, Roxy the band is far from Brian the singer.
"Roxy the band is the drug for me – look no further than Mackay's wailing sax, the Great Paul Thompson's brutal beats (similar, yet just a few yards to the left of John Bonham's) but mostly the uncredited compositions and bold guitar work of Phil Manzanera. I think people sell Phil's "real time" composing short – true, Bryan would write a new lyric so it's "his song" and bring it to the band – but what the band, invariably lead by Phil, did with a new Ferry song was to de- and re- construct it into a wholly different beast than Bryan had first proposed. This process changed Ferry's songs musically, thus thematically too, marking them as 100% Pure Uncut Roxy Music.
"Their first U.S. tour, they naturally came up to WKCR-FM (how could they not??) for a delightful evening including a white-copy spin of For Your Pleasure. Members present were Ferry, Manzanera, Eno, Mackay (The Great), Thompson.
"In a six-hour interview, one gets a fair impression of one's guests. Everyone endorsed the theory of how Phil is Bryan's equal in the band's composition process, but that's as much as they'd give at least on this First U.S. tour. A fun time was had. Phil and I discovered that we were raised a stone's throw from each other– most unexpected news!
"–B:)"
OK, so now flashforward to 2011. I come across this great photo by Lorenzo Lessi, taken on July 28, 2011 .
Bryan Ferry Live at Bolgheri Melody
Copyright © Lorenzo Lessi 2011 I am lovin' this one. Bryan is playing blues harp through a hand-held mike.
• My cousin Larry , who is five years my junior, had this response:
"You know. Sorry I missed it.. I knew he was coming , Shyster.
"He is great. … I just read yesterday's article in the Financial Times. He is a wine schmecker
"Anyway, Noë, what I do remember, is that a long time ago, I was at your house on 95th street when I first saw that album. You might have even opened it in front me, with the hot girls [Country Life].
"I was really young. That's where I got my first exposure to Roxy Music.
"It is still fresh in my mind."
• Erika Anderson , from the road, on tour, has this to say:
"I would love to go to that show. ... He keeps playing the same theaters we are but we're always about a week off!"

Moneyball Rincon
[LESS INFO] 1 VIEWS | ADDED 11:51:27 09/09/11
Based on a true story, "Moneyball" is a movie for anybody who has ever dreamed of taking on the system. Brad Pitt stars as Billy Beane, the general manager of the Oakland A's and the guy who assembles the team, who has an epiphany: all of baseball's conventional wisdom is wrong. Forced to reinvent his team on a tight budget, Beane will have to outsmart the richer clubs. The onetime jock teams with Ivy League grad Peter Brand (Jonah Hill) in an unlikely partnership, recruiting bargain players that the scouts call flawed, but all of whom have an ability to get on base, score runs, and win games. It's more than baseball, it's a revolution – one that challenges old school traditions and puts Beane in the crosshairs of those who say he's tearing out the heart and soul of the game. In theaters September 23, 2011.

Deficits, Debts and Deceptions
Rick Wolff at the Brecht Forum in NYC
In the context of deepening economic decline, Rick Wolff analyzes and answers these questions:
What were the causes and the results of the recent political theater focused on raising the US debt ceiling? What does the "deal" between President Obama and the Republicans mean economically and politically? What are the alternatives that Congress never explored? What can and should now be done, economically and politically?
Richard D. Wolff is an American economist, well-known for his work on Marxian economics , economic methodology and class analysis . He earned his undergraduate degree from Harvard in 1963 and he received his Ph.D. in economics in 1969 at Yale university. His dissertation, "The Economics of Colonialism: Britain and Kenya" was eventually published in book form in 1974. He was a founding member of the Green Party of New Haven, Connecticut, and its Mayoral Candidate in 1985.
Wolff taught at the City College of New York , University of Massachusetts Amherst , and, most recently, in the graduate program in international affairs (GPIA) at The New School .
