Saturday, November 6, 2004 - The Business of Chick Flicks at the American Film Mkt
2pm
They Call Them "Chick Flicks": Offensive or Good Marketing?

Women's pictures used to be guilty pleasures: No more! Now they're kicking butt, getting respect and grossing huge. From frothy romance to whale-riding adventures, these films show us who we are, where we've been, what we can take, and better yet, what we can dish out.
Moderator:
June Shelley, International Sales & Marketing Consultant;
Chair, The International Committee of Women in Film

Jack Amiel, Writer, Raising Helen, The Prince & Me
Michael Begler, Writer, Raising Helen, The Prince & Me

Analysis Nov. 1, noon ET: Last night we warned that Florida and Ohio were on a knife's edge and that Kerry could not survive if he lost both. This morning we got two polls that nudged both states ever so slightly back to Bush. The only reason we've had these states leaning one way or the other in the last 24 hours is that we decided at the outset of this project to allocate even the iffiest states. When you look at all the data, Florida and Ohio are tossups. By favoring one criterion over another, you can make a solid argument for either candidate in either state. Last night the weight of evidence was heavier for Kerry by three ounces. Today it's heavier for Bush by two ounces. We warned last night not to make too much of Kerry's 299. We'll warn now not to make too much of Bush's 286. Here is the math that matters: If all the states in which the data lean discernibly to either candidate vote as the polls suggest, the election will come down to Florida and Ohio. If Bush takes both, he wins. If Kerry takes either, he wins. Since the odds in each state are approximately 50-50, with a tiny edge to Bush, the combined probability of Kerry winning the election is about 70 to 75 percent.

His earlier music ranks with the worst of all time:

Trumpter, activist. Thirty-eight albums; one Kora All Africa Music Award; one BBC Radio Jazz Award; one Friends of the UN Humanitarian Award; one memoir; one anthem of freedom-'Bring Him Back Home (Nelson Mandela).' Take a look at Hugh Masekela's recent autobiography, Still Grazing, and you'll be in awe of the many lives packed into one; the precocious youth growing up outside of Johannesburg (he was given one of Louis Armstrong's trumpets when he was 17); the exile taken in by NY's bebop royalty and artists such as Harry Belafonte, Yehudi Menuhin and Miriam Makebo (the former wife)...Along the way there was the Monterrey Pop Festivals; the 1974 'Rumble in the Jungle' concert in Zaire...Paul Simon's Graceland Tour--but also broken marriages, a battle with addiction...

Florida moves to Kerry, giving him 299 electoral votes. But his lead is shakier than it looks. Both Florida and Ohio are on a knife's edge. We also think Gallup has exposed Wisconsin as a Tier 2 state, winnable for Bush with the right turnout. Kerry's consolation is that both Iowa and New Mexico now look winnable for him, and as a package, they would negate the loss of Wisconsin or Minnesota. Kerry can now afford to lose any of the following combinations: 1) Florida, Iowa, and New Mexico; 2) Florida, Wisconsin, and New Hampshire; 3) Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, and New Hampshire; 4) Ohio and Pennsylvania; or 5) Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania.

Im gonna go with Thelma and Louise, and then Alien 1 & II with Sigourney Weaver. But Jane Fonda in Barbarella is a sight to see also :bigsmile:

Halloween and the Ghost Head Nebula
Credit: Mohammad Heydari-Malayeri (Observatoire de Paris) et al., ESA, NASA
Explanation: Halloween's origin is ancient and astronomical. Since the fifth century BC, Halloween has been celebrated as a cross-quarter day, a day halfway between an equinox (equal day / equal night) and a solstice (minimum day / maximum night in the northern hemisphere). With our modern calendar, however, the real cross-quarter day will occur next week. Another cross-quarter day is Groundhog's Day. Halloween's modern celebration retains historic roots in dressing to scare away the spirits of the dead. Perhaps a fitting modern tribute to this ancient holiday is the above-pictured Ghost Head Nebula taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. Appearing similar to the icon of a fictional ghost, NGC 2080 is actually a star forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of our own Milky Way Galaxy. The Ghost Head Nebula spans about 50 light-years and is shown in representative colors.

yeah...looking at sports streaks is kinda stupid. No team ever came back from three games down.That same team hadn't won since 1918.
Don't remind me of the former :reallymad: but I'd be happy if I win the latter even more : :bigsmile:

Kerry takes electoral vote lead
With only 48 hours to go and Bush unable to crack 48 in the national polls, all eyes are shifting to the latest battleground state polls. (There are 54 new polls in 22 states today, in case you were wondering.) The obsessively clicked-on Electoral-Vote.com now gives Kerry the lead, with 283 electoral votes to Bush's 246. But the site cautions that many of Kerry's state leads are "razor thin." Still, the trends can't be encouraging for Karl Rove and Co. New polls are now giving Iowa, Michigan, and New Mexico to Kerry, and New Jersey, which seemed weirdly up for grabs days ago, has now returned safely to the Kerry fold.
EV.com notes that "Kerry is in a far better position than Gore was at this point in 2000. Not only is he not trailing by 4 percent, he is actually slightly ahead. On the other hand, there are few undecideds left because they have already broken for the challenger, as they usually do."
Another worrying sign for the Bush camp: The Los Angeles Times reports that Bush's evangelical base is not as solid as it was in 2000. "Like other Americans, they are also concerned about health care, jobs and other issues. That's probably why last week Bush said it was OK with him if the states allow civil unions. In other words, forget the evangelicals and concentrate on the soccer moms in the Midwest who are fairly tolerant of civil unions. Well, that's politics for you."
Flippety flop.

Football is a great thing, Method, and you should be cheering the fact that the Packers beat the Redskins. As CJules mentioned, whether of not the Redskins won, has predicted every election since 1936... The Packers won, so should Kerry :bigsmile:
-
Did you guys know that the outcome of Washington Redskins football games has correctly predicted the winner of every U.S. presidential election since 1936? The Redskins have proved to be a time-tested election predictor. In the previous 15 elections, if the Skins have lost their last home game prior to the election, the incumbent party has lost the White House. When they have won, the incumbent has stayed in power. This election year, that deciding game takes place on Sunday, October 31 ... vs. Green Bay.
So all you libs and Bush-haters need to be rooting for ol' GB! no... not George Bush but the Green Bay Packers!
GreenBay won!

Guitarist, Mjarka Player, Singer, Songwriter, Farmer. 16 albums; one Grammy; the Merite National du Mali Award. Born in the Timbuktu region of Mali, Ali Farka Toure got serious about the guitar at the age of 17. More than a decade later, he saw Detroit bluesman John Lee Hooker playing a show in Bamako. On first listen he thought Hooker was playing Malian songs. Roughly 20 years later, with the release of his first albums in the West, Toure was being billed as the African John Lee Hooker. Despite the occassional collaboration with Ry Cooder and others, Toure prefers to play traditional Malian music and he likes to play it straight. Sometimes (he) picks up his Njarka, a one string African violin, and saws away at it like someone possessed. Toure has mixed feelings about making a living by turning his music into popular entertainment--since releasing the typically great Niafunke, in 1999, and touring the world soon afterward, Toure has returned to his fruit-and-rice farm in his native country.

The name is familiar. didn't he do some work with George Harrison?
:wha':
He's often mentioned with Ravi Shankar - dont know if he worked with George Harrison or not, but it wouldnt surprise me if he did

Sarode Master, Composer, Educator. More than 100 albums; more than 20 international awards including a MacArthur Foundation 'genius grant.' Credited with introducing classical music to the West in 1955. Ali Akbar Khan has had a career thus far that is nothing shor of amazing. He has won respect the world over for his mastery of the sarode--a 25-stringed northern Indian lute. In 1967, he opened the Ali Akbgar College of Music, now in San Rafael, California, recognizing what he called "the extraordinary interest and the abilities" of his students in the West."
