Take a Stand fur the I and By PHIL KNIGHT Native Forest Network "Last Refuge" is an urgent call to the communities of the Northern Rockies to Stand Up for the Land! The Native Forest Network (NFN) reaching out across the Northern Rockies to galvanize public resistance to development of roadless public lands in the Northern Rockies, and to bu critical public support for protection of these threatened wildlands. NO MORE ROADLESS AREA DEVELOPMENT is FN's message to t people of the Northern Rockies. Last Refuge; Last Stand for the Land campaign's hard-hitting message will complement and support on-the grou grassroots resistance to roadless area development, legal/administrative campaigns, and legislative and political efforts such as the Northern Racki Ecosystem Protection Act. Cuddy Mountain, Cove/Mallard, the Big Belt Mountains, French Creek, the North Bridgers - all are irreplaceable Nori em Rockies wildlands which have very recently felt the blade of the bulldozer. The list ~f imminently threatened areas is even longer. We must < now to protect these critical lands. The majority of the public do not want to see continued development of our last precious wildlands. We belie that a better informed public can help tum the tide towards preservation. The goal of the Last Refuge Campaign is to protect forever ALL remaining roadless public lands of the Northern Rockies. Industrial development of roadless, pristine public land is degrading and ruining some of the finest wild backcountry in the U.S. and Canac Logging, roadbuilding, mining, grazing, land swaps, oil and gas development, housing development, and many other forms of industrialization c: chewing away at the last meager parcels of undeveloped public domain. The U.S. Forest Service destroys 1.5 to 2 million acres of wilderness eve year. Government vs. Wilderness Federal land management agencies, including the US Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, the ational Pa Service, and the Canadian provincial governments, continue to plan and promote development of the last remote remnants of unprotected roadle public lands. The National Forest system in the US has been invaded by an incredible 375,00P miles of roads! Roads on public land are built taxpayer expense for resource extraction by large corporations. From 1980-1996, road construction on national forest cost $4.6 billion! Once a ro has penetrated an area, it is no longer eligible for Wildernes statu , and permanent protection is unlikely. Roads mean easier, quicker access f more humans and their destructive machinery and weapons. There are so many roads and clearcuts on our national forests, from the air the appear an immense, threadbare quilt. Roadless lands, protected and otherwise, are the last refuges for wilderness-dependent specie like the grizzly bear, woodland caribou, wolverir fisher and goshawk. These species need FORESTED wilderness, rather than the classic rocks-and-ice of many protected Wilderness areas. It ism t forests of the Rockies these imperiled wildlife pecies make their last stand. If we protect enough room for the e species to survive. we prott. countless other species of animal and plant as well! According to the US Forest Service, 58% of Americans want an end to commercial logging on public lands. Yet ma sive logging projects. UI' as the 145 miles of road and 200 clearcuts at Cove/Mallard in Idaho, or the 16 miles of new road and 2200 acres of logging at Park Lake near HelertJ.1 Montana, continue to deforest and destroy our priceless forests. The public is often unaware of development project planned for roadless land un u it is too late. The sheer number, scale and speed of development projects and the size of the region leaves people overwhelmed and helples . Nor de the federal government welcome publi c input or calls for change. A stronger and larger network of committed roadless area defenders is e sential offset the frenzy for development and to build alternatives to the destructive, boom-and-bust resource extraction cycle.

  • Promising Young Woman
    Promising Young Woman Written and Directed by Emerald Fennell 1 INT. SWEET SIXTEEN’S DANCEFLOOR - NIGHT A super-depressing dancefloor on a Thursday night. 2-For-1 shots and a sticky floor. The kind of last-resort place people end up after work having accidentally nailed ten “just one” drinks. A bored DJ plays the DROELOE remix of “Boys” by Charlie XCX, while the thin and kind of tragic crowd dances. We linger on the men dancing in particular, their bodies, the sweat running down their backs as they grind and thrust. The slow-mo, the lascivious pan-up, the sort of erotic gaze normally reserved for oiled-up music-video hotties. Except we’re looking at regular dudes in chinos with absolutely no dancing ability. INT. SWEET SIXTEEN’S UPSTAIRS BAR - NIGHT By the bar, is a group of guys still in their work suits, ties loosened. They’re mostly good-looking, in their early- thirties, bantering and eyeing up the diminishing talent pool. Among them are JEZ, a shy, sweet guy who is clearly dying to leave, and PAUL, a sweaty Alpha-bro whose super- fragile masculinity is always one rejection away from shattering to pieces. PAUL Fuck her, man. It’s how things are done. It’s just a fucking round of golf! You’d think we were taking clients to a strip club or something- JIM -which we can’t anymore- PAUL -Exactly we can’t even do that anymore because of last year’s Christmas party. JEZ I think it’s because the golf club doesn’t let women play there.

  • Felicity Aston Put to Women from Around the Commonwealth, As She Set out to Create the Most International All-Female Expedition Ever to the Pole
    That was the challenge that British adventurer Felicity Aston put to women from around the Commonwealth, as she set out to create the most international all-female expedition ever to the Pole. The team would not be experienced explorers but ‘ordinary’ women who wanted to inspire others to follow their dreams or make a change for the better in their lives. She received more than 800 applications. ‘What is skiing?’ asked someone in Ghana. At the close of 2009, Felicity led a team from places as diverse as Jamaica, India, Singapore and Cyprus – some of whom had never even seen snow or spent the night in a tent before joining the expedition – on one of the toughest journeys on the planet. ‘An uplifting and enthralling feat; I take my fur hat off to all those who answered this call of the white.

GIRL-JUNK, SUGAR-FUNK by Natalie Louise Tombasco Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing to the Department of English at Butler University May 2018 1 Introduction “What he carried with him, all he carried with him, was a lack, something like a lack of air, of proper behavior in his lungs, a difficulty that he supposed would go on forever.”—Alice Munro The poems in this collection are chock-full of aromas, twangs, cultural references, environments, and temperaments. They are a mouthful meant to carry a great weight, to create a dichotomy between lack and fullness, to strangle the reader with neglect. Duality is a recurring theme in poems such as “Chop Suey” and “The Transition into Backyard Mermaid,” and is also represented in the way terrains become intertwined in “Home Office Ecotone” and “Down Down from Fenneltown.” Setting is treated as a psychic space where flora and fauna drift between landscapes to embody disorientation, and it perhaps creates a new place where the speaker finds belonging.

Author: Bernardine Evaristo University: Goldsmiths, University of London Thesis submitted for the PhD in Creative Writing 1 Signed Declaration The work presented in this thesis is my own. To the best of my belief this thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any degree or diploma of the university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement has been made. Signed: Bernardine Evaristo Date: 2 Acknowledgments I’d like to offer my sincere thanks and appreciation to my creative supervisor, Blake Morrison, and to my critical supervisor, Bart Moore-Gilbert, for their support and advice in the development of this thesis. 3 The official requirement of the critical aspect of the Goldsmith’s Creative Writing doctoral thesis is to research into the area of literature most relevant to my novel, to gain insight into its history and development, and to engage with relevant contemporary debates.

    Antebellum Written by Gerard Bush + Christopher Renz LIONSGATE 2700 Colorado Ave Santa Monica, CA 90404 WHITE LETTERS ON A BLACK BACKGROUND “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” ~William Faulkner 2 FADE IN – SUPER: LOUISIANA EXT: PLANTATION – EARLY EVENING The gloaming drapes a lonely plantation in burnt oranges and yellows. The Great House sits atop acres of endless, perfectly manicured cotton fields, guarded by giant hundred-year-old moss trees –– replete with cows roaming at pasture, a few scarce chickens and a brood of quarter horses. It is late Summer, the heat is stifling, omnipresent; unrelenting. We follow a little BLONDE GIRL who can be seen skipping past the endless rolling greens, dragonflies buzzing about in her wake. We spot her rosy cheek, from the faint profile –– she appears to be just shy of ten years old, at the most –– her long ponytail whipping in the wind, donned in a floor-length linsey-woolsey dress, buttoned all the way to her throat. Without a care in the world, she grips a tiny fistful of wildflowers. Blindingly white sheets can be seen rolling like ocean waves in the Southern Summer breeze. A few young black women slaves are busy pinning sheets carefully to the clothesline. They’re dressed in ecru-colored, lace Chantilly dresses, which button up all the way to the neck. A trio of grinning Confederate soldiers pass proudly in their army-issued grays and tip their hats toward the women slaves, which the girls acknowledge with odd, forced, plastic smiles; their eyes dead, with a hint of terror, under perspiring brows –– a sinister current shadows the cordial exchange.
