  • The Promise of Whiteness: Fifty Shades of Grey As White Racial Archive
    Issue 8 January 2016 www.intensitiescultmedia.com The Promise of Whiteness: Fifty Shades of Grey as White Racial Archive Moon Charania Spelman College Abstract This paper looks closely at how whiteness—a key demonstrative site of power in Sam Taylor-Johnson’s egregious Fifty Shades of Grey (2015)—scripts a repertoire of behaviours on sexual, gender, racial, and class lines. Positioning Fifty Shades of Grey in the post 9/11 globalised media machine, I argue that this interna- tionally bestselling erotic phenomenon is haunted by the master narrative of white racism and heterosexual compulsion, where both are reconstituted as desirable in growing social climate of gay cosmopolitanism and anti-racist awareness. Wrought through a lexicon white superiority, Fifty Shades offers us a way of thinking about how dominant fe/male subject(s) employ whiteness as a crucial practice of producing social subordina- tion, and how a close reading of this film underscores the private and public pleasures of white subjectivity, and the inherent stability of white affluent subjectivity, despite its excesses—a position disallowed to queer and colored subjects. Analyzing various narrative moments in the film, I show how Christian Grey, despite his eroticization of violence, is nonetheless secured by distinctive individuality most closely associated with white bodies and the privileges of the white body politic. Grey’s irreducible and extradiagetic white pres- ence demand further thinking about how Fifty Shades is fundamentally about the pleasures (and promises) of whiteness. I argue that the ultimate duplicity of Fifty Shades of Grey is that it seduces viewers through a promise of explicit sex and wealth, even though the film’s true offering is much more simple: the promise of whiteness.

  • Choose Paint Colors and Schemes
    Choose Paint Colors and Schemes When you’re decorating your home, choosing the right paint colors is the most important decision you’ll make. As fun as choosing colors can be, this part of the planning can be overwhelming. Thousands of combinations are possible, but by having a basic understanding of color you can create a scheme you love. Basic Color Terms The Color Wheel The color wheel identifies color families and how they relate to each other. Primary Colors All colors, with the exception of white, come from primary colors.. Blue, yellow and red are the primary colors; combinations of these three colors produce secondary colors. Secondary Colors Mix equal amounts of two primary colors to create secondary colors. The results are violet (red and blue), green (blue and yellow) and orange (red and yellow). Tertiary Colors Mix one primary color with larger amounts of another primary color to create tertiary colors. For example, mix one part blue with two parts red to red-violet. Other Color Terms • The hue of a color is the basic color. For example, blue is the hue in light blue and dark blue. • Tone is the result of adding white and black (gray) to a color. Tone makes colors more pleasing to look at instead of pure pigment. • The value of a color describes the amount of white or black in the color. The value ranges from light to dark on a gray scale. • The saturation of a color refers to its strength or weakness in different light. Think about it in terms of bright or dull.

  • 4 Colour Words in English and Italian
    Connotative meaning in English and Italian Colour-Word Metaphors Gill Philip, Bologna ([email protected]) Abstract Colour words are loaded with attributive, connotative meanings, many of which are realised in conventional linguistic expressions such as to feel blue, to be in the pink, and to see red. The use of such phrases on an everyday basis reinforces the currency of the connotative meanings which they assume in particular cultural and linguistic settings, and the phrases themselves are often cited as evidence of the existence of colours’ connotative meanings. But how do the colour words in conventional linguistic expressions relate to the multitude of symbolic meanings that colours (in general) are said to represent? Based on data extracted from general reference corpora as well as traditional reference works, this article examines the use of colour-word metaphors in English and Italian. It pays particular attention to the ways in which colour words take on connotative meanings, how the meanings are fixed linguistically, and similarities and differences across the two languages under examination. Farbbezeichnungen enthalten viele attributive und konnotative Bedeutungen, wobei viele von ihnen in umgangssprachlichen Ausdrücken vorkommen, wie z.B. to feel blue, to be in the pink und to see red. Die Verwendung derartiger Ausdrücke im alltäglichen Umgang trägt zur weiteren Verbreitung der konnotativen Bedeutungen innerhalb eines bestimmten kulturellen und sprachlichen Umfeldes bei, und die Ausdrücke selber werden oft als Beweis für den offensichtlichen konnotativen Aspekt der Farbbegriffe angeführt. In welchem Verhältnis stehen aber die konventionellen Ausdrücke zur großen Anzahl symbolischer Bedeutungen, die doch Farben (im Allgemeinen) darstellen sollen? Ausgehend von Resultaten allgemeiner reference corpora wie auch herkömmlicher Studien wird hier der Umgang mit Farbbezeichnungsmetaphern (idiomatische Ausdrücke) im Englischen und Italienischen untersucht.

It is also one of the fastest growing areas in the country. With natural precipitation less than 5 inches during the April through October growing season, consideration of water use for our landscapes is very important. The water resources of our region are shared by all, and as such we each have a responsibility to use it wisely. The typical resident uses over 50% of the water they use annually, outside for landscaping. Landscapes add value, beauty and livability to our homes and keeping them WaterWise is a critical part of being a good steward in this incredible region. We all need to become WaterWise partners in order to protect our water resources for our grandkids. This Xeriscape™ guide, put together by our regional horticulture, irrigation and water conservation experts, is one tool to assist you in effective water management. By adopting the seven steps of xeriscaping, from design – to ongoing maintenance, not only can you plan a gorgeous landscape for your home or business, but you can do it in a low impact, sustainable way. Less water, less maintenance, less chemicals, less run- off, less energy use, less worry. These are just some of the benefits that can allow you more time to enjoy the many amenities of this region. Whether landscaping a new home or business, or revisiting your existing landscape, please consider this Xeriscape guide as a place to begin your effort to turn your landscape into a WaterWise work of beauty.

Color is an important defining characteristic of historical homes. Like a home’s deco- rative architectural details, color reflects both the style of a house and the time when it was built. Choosing historically appropriate exterior colors and using them in historically appropriate ways can highlight the architectural character of a home, strengthen its historical integrity and enhance the continuity of an his- toric district. Less appropriate choices can obscure the unique architectural features of a home, weaken its historical value and disrupt the historical context of a neigh- borhood. Recognizing the importance of color to the value of historical homes, several national companies, such as Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, California Paints and Valspar, have worked with preservation groups like the National Trust for Historic Preserva- tion and Historic New England to produce a wide array of historically accurate colors for consumers.
