Butterfly on a Wheel (2007) AKA Shattered

Butterfly on a wheel

Butterfly on a Wheel (US: Shattered, Europe: Desperate Hours) is a 2007 Canadian thriller film directed by Mike Barker, co-produced and written by William Morrissey, and starring Pierce Brosnan, Gerard Butler, and Maria Bello. The film’s title is an allusion to a line of Alexander Pope’s poem "Epistle to Dr Arbuthnot": “Who breaks a butterfly upon a wheel?” The line is usually interpreted as questioning why someone would put massive effort into achieving something minor or unimportant. Or, who would punish a minor offender with a disproportional punishment.

In Chicago, the family man and executive of an advertisement agency Neil Randall has a perfect life: he expects to be promoted in his job soon, he has a beautiful and sexy wife, Abby, a lovely daughter, Sophie, and he lives in a wonderful house. When Neil's boss Karl Granger invites him to spend the weekend in his cottage in the country, Abby hires a nanny for Sophie to spend the day with her sister Diane. While driving Abby in his truck to meet Diane, a stranger hidden on the backseat appears with a gun, and informs them that he has kidnapped Sophie. He introduces himself as Ryan and demands that for twenty-four hours, the couple shall obey his orders, otherwise he will kill Sophie. While keeping the couple under his total control, he makes it clear that he is a calculating sociopath with nothing to lose, with the intention of destroying Neil's perfect life.

Ziggo en Xs4all voeren blokkade The Pirate Bay door

Door Dimitri Reijerman, dinsdag 31 januari 2012

Ziggo heeft in de afgelopen nacht op last van de rechter een filter geactiveerd waardoor The Pirate Bay niet langer direct is op te vragen door abonnees. Xs4all gaat voor de deadline van 1 februari ook over tot het blokkeren van de torrentsite.

Ziggo laat op zijn website weten dat de blokkade in de nacht van maandag en dinsdag tussen 1.00 en 6.00 uur ’s nachts is doorgevoerd. Klanten van de provider die naar The Pirate Bay surfen, worden nu doorverwezen naar blokkade.ziggo.nl. De isp meent echter dat een blokkade van een website weinig effectief is, omdat deze 'vrij makkelijk is te omzeilen'. Ook stelt Ziggo tegen het blokkeren van websites te zijn, omdat de isp niet de rol van politieagent opgedrongen mag krijgen. Verder meent Ziggo dat het vonnis de deur openzet voor 'verdere ongewenste ontwikkelingen' die de internetvrijheid kunnen inperken.

Xs4all heeft aangegeven ook voor de deadline van 1 februari een filter te activeren waardoor The Pirate Bay onbereikbaar moet worden. De provider wil een speciale pagina tonen waarin tekst en uitleg wordt gegeven over de precieze reden van de blokkade. Ook wil Xs4all een lijst van de geblokkeerde adressen aan zijn abonnees tonen.

Lorna - Static Patterns And Souvenirs

Lorna - Static Patterns And Souvenirs (2005)

This album is sparse, reflective, and terribly pretty -- and that's after just one or two minutes. The opening "Understanding Heavy Metal, Pts. 1-2" features singer Mark Rolfe taking a delicate melody and adding airy vocals that hover over the track perfectly. Sharon Cohen adds harmonies and you have a gorgeous track that seems to glide and soar at the same time. Think of Wilco meets the Delgados while inspired by David Bowie's Heroes and you might get a good idea of what isat play here. Horns enter the track but are far from a sticking point, giving it more body. The second half has some electronic blips and bleeps, but they also aren't a distraction. "Homerun" is a dirge with a duet from the two singers, making bands like Cowboy Junkies seem uptempo by comparison. Cohen's high notes bring to mind Sigur Rós, but she doesn't go over the top. The first real gem comes in the form of "The Last Mosquito Fight of Summer," as Lorna craft the song around their assets -- lovely vocal performances and simple arrangements with melodies that are heavenly -- as it ventures into the Cure circa Bloodflowers territory. "Remarkable Things" sounds as if the bandmembers have been listening to mountain music, but they perform the song at a snail's pace. The pedal steel is excellent thanks to Marc Ransley's deft abilities. "Swans" might be too rich, lush, or textured for some, but the lullaby harmonies and melancholic tone are what make it work so well. The same can be inferred from "Will You Still Love Me Yesterday?," a play on the Shirelles title. This haunting style continues during the barren and claustrophobic "Be Forever," which brings to mind Marianne Faithfull, Luna, or PJ Harvey circa Dance Hall at Louse Point. One song that comes across as run of the mill has to be "Snow Song." Lorna wrap the record up as smoothly and gracefully as it opened with "Illuminations," a track that sounds like a cross between Knife in the Water and Thee Heavenly Music Association. This record is pretty almost to a fault. (Review by Jason MacNeil)

The Glass Bottom Boat (1966)

The Glass Bottom Boat is an 1966 American romantic comedy movie directed by Frank Tashlin; it is also considered by some people to be musical entertainment. This movie features Doris Day and Rod Taylor as the main entertainers, with assistance from actors Arthur Godfrey and Paul Lynde. It is also known as The Spy in Lace Panties.

Starring:  

Doris Day, Rod Taylor, Arthur Godfrey, Dom DeLuise

Axel Nordstrom manages a glass-bottom boat tourist operation in the waters of Santa Catalina Island, California. His widowed daughter, Jennifer Nelson, occasionally helps by donning a mermaid's costume and swimming underneath his boat for the passengers' amusement.

One day, Jennifer accidentally meets Bruce Templeton when his fishing hook snags her costume. He reels in the bottom half of her mermaid costume, leaving the irate Jennifer floating in the water without pants. Jennifer later discovers that Bruce is the main manager of her part-time place of employment, an aerospace research laboratory.

Mr. Templeton later sees Jennifer again at work and recognizes her, and with a hidden purpose, he hires her for a new full-time assignment: to be his "biographer" and to write his life story. His hidden purpose is to make an attempt to win Jennifer's affections. There is a problem. The laboratory's security chief, Homer Cripps, concludes that Jennifer is a Soviet spy, and to prove his suspicions, he has Jennifer surveilled. When she learns of the notion, Jennifer disproves the bumbling Cripps.

The Corporation (2003)

The Corporation  is a 2003 Canadian documentary film written by Joel Bakan, and directed by Mark Achbar and Jennifer Abbott. The documentary is critical of the modern-day corporation, considering its legal status as a class of person and evaluating its behaviour towards society and the world at large as a psychiatrist might evaluate an ordinary person. This is explored through specific examples. Bakan wrote the book, The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power, during the filming of the documentary.
