The Artful Blogger: Cinematically Inclined: “The Great Gatsby”
http://artfulintel.blogspot.com/2013/05/cinematically-inclined-great-gatsby.html
From the mind of a pop culture-obsessed grammarian. Saturday, May 11, 2013. Cinematically Inclined: “The Great Gatsby”. Who knew an old high school English class chestnut would be one of the main cultural events of the summer movie season? It’s been over a decade since Baz Luhrmann made his signature film and masterpiece, 2001’s experimental, infuriating, over-the-top Moulin Rouge! And then posit Gatsby. Is also opening this year’s Cannes Film Festival.) It turns out that Jay and Daisy were onc...Nothing...

The Artful Blogger: Guilty Pleasure: “Zuiikin English”
http://artfulintel.blogspot.com/2012/01/guilty-pleasure-zuiikin-english.html
From the mind of a pop culture-obsessed grammarian. Wednesday, January 4, 2012. Guilty Pleasure: “Zuiikin English”. I don’t know who exercises to those morning TV shows anymore. In the 80s they had those Jane Fonda videos. Local stations still put on those programs where you do simple things like do 45-minute runs to warm up, then a bunch of exercises. Fair enough. But who would have had the gumption to combine exercise with other forms of daily exercises, as in language exercises? 8221; Think of it this...

My friend Jen gave me this recipe because it is egg and dairy free. It is rich and chocolaty and very creamy. Super simple to make and fits in with many alternative dietary needs. It is vegan, wheat free, nut free, raw and you can get your serving of veggies in your dessert! 2 avocados, pitted and peeled. 3/4 cup cocoa powder.

Life and food with a food allergic son. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Chocolate Brownies – Dairy-free, Egg-free. October 24, 2012. A warm chocolatey brownie on a chilly Fall day sounds about right. These are vegan and easy to make. The original recipe calls for a 9×9 inch pan, which I don’t have, baked for 25 minutes. If you use a larger pan then you get more brownies! I think I should buy a bigger pan…. 1 1/2 Cups flour. 1 1/2 Cups brown sugar. 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda. Combine ...

Besides, not many field trips happen in grade 8, or so I thought! The last week of May G brought out a crumpled wad from his backpack. It was pages and pages of consent forms, schedules, packing lists(! Etc for trips that the kids would go on during the last two weeks of school. Two weeks of field trips! School trips can’t happe...

From the mind of a pop culture-obsessed grammarian. Sunday, December 2, 2012. Cinematically Inclined: “Anna Karenina”. 8220;I thank God that the curse of love has been lifted from me.”. I first studied Leo Tolstoy’s mammoth Anna Karenina. Heard my plea, and presented me with his accomplished new version of Anna Karenina. How prescient that Tom Stoppard wrote this film’s screenplay. Stoppard’s seminal work Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. Nsert Bertolt Brecht reference here. Opened in the United Kin...

The Artful Blogger: Modern Film Classics: “2046”
http://artfulintel.blogspot.com/2014/07/modern-film-classics-2046.html
From the mind of a pop culture-obsessed grammarian. Tuesday, July 1, 2014. Modern Film Classics: “2046”. All memories are traces of tears. If you were to dance to the end of love, what would it look like? Wong Kar-Wai’s 2046. Is the sequel to his celebrated 2000 masterpiece In the Mood for Love. Tak falls in love with a female android, but which does not leave with him. Why? Chow inhabits the film, occupying psychic and physical space, never registering emotionally to those around him. In the afterma...

From the mind of a pop culture-obsessed grammarian. Friday, April 13, 2012. On the Telly: “The Office”. It hurt me today to find out that my beloved The Office. Has received a record lowrating. This was the lowest for the American version of the series since its premiere in the spring of 2005. The history of NBC’s The Office. New boss: Catherine Tate. Let’s liken it to what happened with Diana Ross when she left the Supremes. Without their biggest star, the one who defined the group, the effect...It̵...

The food has greatly improved over the years and this year I think I’ve done quite well for him. To be honest after the first year. There was no where to go but up! He didn’t complain but there must be a better way. July 4, 2013. Photo by Paul Hudson. Teenaged boys are the worst searchers for things. I’m thinking of charg...

Grimy In the 1912 home I first lived in, the room with the toilet didn’t even have a wash basin and I’m pretty sure I didn’t make the trek to the next room to wash my hands. I know you’re thinking “Ew, gross! 8221;, but that’s how it was. Wipe your hands on your Wranglers and you’re good to go! This dual hand washing was established in each of G’s classes throug...
