Anniuersar» Art Show at reunion, Alumni Association or the College, REUNION -i6 Nearly 1,000 alumni and guests de- scended on campus for reunion '86, bringing the College's 75th anniversary year to a rousing finale. It was one of the biggest reunions ever, with the Complex dorms and Larrabee com- pletely full, 450 people in Harris Refec- tory jar dinner Friday, and 200 alumni at the faculty open house in Blaustein. A record number of Sykes Society alum- nae attended-54 alumnae, 17 guests, and one grandchild. All smiles: Part of a huge 45th reun- ion class, tV!ary Farrell IHorse '41 and Bobby Yohe Wdliams '41; judy Willner Stacy '46, whose class sponsored the tennis tournament; and '76ers Bernard McMullan, Kathleen Smith Andersen, and Ann Bodurtha. Over 100 alumni and guests came to the lath reunion. 1 Thirty-nine members of the class of '36~nearly 40 percent of the class-returned for their 50th reunion. Catching up at the Friday evening reception (toP) are '36ers Bette Bindloss Johnson, Elinor Knoche Talbott, and her college roommate, Dickie Brastow Peck. For the parade Saturday, alumni brought out banners, babies, straw hats, politi- cal buttons, and balloons. 1946 was the biggest group at reunion, with 78 alumni and 32 guests, and certainly the easiest to spot, in their red bandannas. Trustee Joan Jacob- son Kronick '46, class agent, announced that her class had given the largest 40th reun- ion (AAGP and Campaign) gift ever. "And I want you to know," she added, "that the class of '46 always dresses this way." 2 3 Ruth Griswold Louchheim '31 (right) was among 300 elegantly dressed alumni and friends at the Gala 75th Anniversary Ball.

On the whole, though, New London's weather cooperated, the campus was in its late spring glory, and the mood was expansive for one of Connecticut's largest reunion weekends ever. Reunioners enjoyed the alumni art show in Cummings (above), featuring works done in honor of the College's 75th anniversary. The exhibit was organized by Professor Emeritus of Art William McCloy, Professor of Art Peter Leibert, and Ellen Wildermann Bodin '80. 7 The Good News: Father Larry Affable, approachable, witty Father Larry LaPointe says it's the message that brings students back, by Lisey Good '87 n the Connecticut College campus, a lot is "The first time I went to mass here, Father Larry about to happen at five o'clock on Saturday got up and said, 'How about that first reading?

  • September/October 2014 at BFI Southbank
    September/October 2014 at BFI Southbank Al Pacino in Conversation with Salome & Wilde Salome, Jim Jarmusch and Friends, Peter Lorre, Night Will Fall, The Wednesday Play at 50 and Fela Kuti Al Pacino’s Salomé and Wilde Salomé based on Oscar Wilde’s play, will screen at BFI Southbank on Sunday 21 September and followed by a Q&A with Academy Award winner Al Pacino and Academy Award nominee Jessica Chastain that will be broadcast live via satellite to cinemas across the UK and Ireland. This unique event will be hosted by Stephen Fry. Jim Jarmusch was one of the key filmmakers involved in the US indie scene that flourished from the mid-70s to the late 90s. He has succeeded in remaining true to the spirit of independence, with films such as Stranger Than Paradise (1984), Dead Man (1995) and, most recently, Only Lovers Left Alive (2013). With the re-release of Down By Law (1986) as a centrepiece for the season, we will also look at films that have inspired Jarmusch A Century of Chinese Cinema: New Directions will celebrate the sexy, provocative and daring work by acclaimed contemporary filmmakers such as Wong Kar-wai, Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai and Tsai Ming-liang. These directors built on the innovations of the New Wave era and sparked a renewed global interest in Chinese cinema into the new millennium André Singer’s powerful new documentary Night Will Fall (2014) reveals for the first time the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps and the efforts made by army and newsreel cameramen to document the almost unbelievable scenes encountered there.

  • Chapter 13: Hypernotes
    Chapter 13: Hypernotes LWWW7 13:2 This account is principally based on that of Sadler (1997a). He also points out in the same article that Bart Simpson is shown left-handed most of the time; “He might just be left- handed to fit in with the stereotype that left-handers have a rebellious nature” (p.148). Whether Henson was left-handed is unclear, at least one web-site saying his left- handedness is a myth, albeit one that is often quoted (http://www.qsulis.demon.co.uk /Website_Louise_Gold/The_Muppet_Show.htm). Although most Muppets are left-handed because they were controlled by right-handed puppeteers, it seems that the Muppets controlled by the left-handed puppeteer Louise Gold were right-handed. (www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~csilvers/muppet-faq.html). Before anyone asks, I agree that this theory of puppetry ought to mean that all puppets, and not just Muppets, should be left-handed. And so it should. Whether it does I have no idea. I leave it to some interested reader to publish the definitive study. One might also ask a) whether film makers might also sometimes reverse the images on film or video (see the comment on Titanic), and b) whether most of the time right handers are too insensitive to notice this excess of left-handers (see the comment on Van Gogh’s Potato Eaters, in chapter 11). The sophisticated cognitive and motor skills have been little discussed by neurologists or psychologists, an insightful exception being the account of Wilson (1998 Chapter 4). There is however no mention of the differences in usage between right and left hands.
