  • Denton Record-Chronicle | News for Denton County, Texas | Entertainment: Movies 04/08/2008 08:51 AM
    New releases mostly on the gloomy side | Denton Record-Chronicle | News for Denton County, Texas | Entertainment: Movies 04/08/2008 08:51 AM New releases mostly on the gloomy side 11:15 AM CDT on Sunday, April 6, 2008 By Boo Allen/Film Critic Prepare this week for some brooding intensity: Rare appearances by two distinct artists mark There Will Be Blood, the fifth movie from writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson, his first since 2002. And, in an Oscar-winning performance, Daniel Day-Lewis returns to the screen for the first time since 2005. Lewis plays Daniel Plainview, a turn-of-the-20th-century oilman, mean, single-focused, and devoid of any limiting attributes such as honor, truth, or kindness. Anderson delivers an authentic portrait of this era, as shown in the DVD supplement The Story of Petroleum. Anderson dips into Upton Sinclair’s obscure novel Oil! for his source, staying with Plainview and the chronicling of his fortunes. This love of money sounds cautionary warnings, as the film’s various characters fall under the spell promised by the riches of an oil strike. Despite the film’s almost epic sweep, Anderson stays close to Daniel Plainview, knowing that the conflict buried in this intense man signals the greatest drama. The singular subplot has Paul Dano playing a smugly religious type involved in a constant, ill-fated feud with Plainview, a battle that further defines Plainview and his quest for supremacy. Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Elswit works with Anderson to render his customary long takes, but the focus stays mostly on the era’s drabness.

  • Some Mother's Son in the Grim Chronology of the British Conflict with the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in Northern Ireland
    Some Mother’s Son In the grim chronology of the British conflict with the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in Northern Ireland, the winter/spring of 1981 stands out as a defining moment, punctuated particularly by the fasting death of IRA activist Bobby Sands on May 5, 1981, in the Maze Prison in Belfast. The events leading up to that hunger strike and its eventual resolution form the political context of a splendid new motion picture, Some Mother’s Son. While this actual context gives definition and weight to Some Mother’s Son, the film is much less about contemporary Northern Ireland politics than it is about the personal life-and-death battle of two women for the very bodies and souls of their politically committed sons. It is wrenching as is all real tragedy, with all its inevitability, its struggle, its ultimate calamity--but also its pity and catharsis. The dramatic core of the film, co-authored by Irishmen Terry George (who also directed) and Jim Sheridan (My Left Foot, The Field), is fictional, presenting two Belfast mothers, teacher and widow Kathleen Quigley (Helen Mirren), and farmer Annie Higgins (Fionnula Flanagan), who, though of differing backgrounds and views, come together to support their IRA-member sons in prison after the young men’s capture. There are class and taste differences between Kathleen and Annie: the former is more educated, high- toned, circumspect, and works in sensible heels, while the latter is earthier, tougher, more opinionated and sports rubber boots for work. Kathleen is prudent but no prude; more or less a pacifist, she doesn’t want any trouble.

  • 4Th Quarter 2016 and Was Highly Motivated to Seek Answers
    News of the California Association of Criminalists • Fourth Quarter 2016 Making Things Happen When I was a kid, I had a poster of three baby raccoons in my room with the following quote. It is a quote that I always liked and still try to live by today. “There are people who make things happen, there are people who watch things happen, and there are people who wonder what happened.” It’s a cliché saying, but it’s also very applicable to those of us who work in forensic science. I’ve been CAC President for a few months now, so I looked back at my last address to evaluate whether I am “making things happen,” or in other words, whether I am achieving the goals I set forth at the beginning of my term. One of the goals I set forth was increasing CAC membership. Living in California is expensive, and sometimes criminalists have so many living expenses that they struggle to pay annual dues for a number of professional memberships. I found that this keeps criminalists from becoming CAC members. Therefore, I convinced my Laboratory Director to pay for an additional professional mem- bership fee for each of our criminalists. This has encouraged many more of my colleagues to join the CAC. Thank you, Ian Fitch! Now I will work to get more of these new members to attend study group meetings and seminars. Maybe I can even get one or two of them to present some of their fine work. Are any other laboratories able to dig a little deeper to find some funding to financially assist their criminalists in participating in professional activities? Another goal was to get more people to serve so that our association as a whole can “make things happen.” I have asked a lot of people to step up and serve and have only been met with enthusiasm.

Background of the Study Sociology is scientific study of human behavior in groups and of the social forces that influences the behavior. It forces primary on the influence of the relationship upon people's attitude and behavior and how societies are established and change. As a field of study, sociology has extremely board scope. It deals with families, gangs, business firms, political parties and labor unions. It concerns with love, poverty, conformity, discrimination, alienation and community. This stud y is based on Sociological approach, because it deals with society and social behavior. The term sociology comes from the Greek word “socio” means “society” and “logos” means “science”. In her book, Ratna writes that Sociology means science of conversing the basic growth or on evaluation of society, generally, rational and empiric (Ratna, 2003:1). Literature is not a reflection of the social process, but the essence, the abridgement and summary of all history. The idea of Sociology of Literature that in literary work, the author and the society background are unity. Here, Ellek also states that literature represents life and social reality. It means that literature is a picture of reality in life. (Wellek and Warren, 1956: p.96). 1 2 Literature is the expression of society as well as speech as the expression of man.

  • Hotel Rwanda, Reminds All of Us What One Person Can Accomplish When Moved to Act
    DEAR EDUCATOR, In 1994 almost one million people were killed in a systematic genocide in the central African country of Rwanda. As the world stood by, a handful of brave, resourceful and inspiring individuals did all they could to save Rwandans from brutal deaths. Paul Rusesabagina, whose story is portrayed in the powerful and hopeful film Hotel Rwanda, reminds all of us what one person can accomplish when moved to act. Hotel Rwanda addresses a horrific issue: genocide. This is a difficult and upsetting topic. Yet, as the film shows, while people and governments chose to ignore the 1994 Rwandan genocide, one individual bravely risked his life and stood up to the horror, calling upon all of his resources to first save his family, then ended up saving 1,268 helpless refugees. Terry George, Hotel Rwanda’s director, takes us on Paul’s journey, showing the country’s struggle and how the world turned a blind eye. He leads us in the end to a place of hope and promise. The enclosed teacher’s guide, a companion piece to the film, is produced by Amnesty International USA in cooperation with United Artists. This guide is intended for use by high school age students and can be used in the traditional classroom or a community setting. The purpose of this educator’s guide is to explore the history of the crisis and generate debate on strategies that could have been pursued to prevent the genocide. It is also a tool for analyzing what will be effective in the future as the international community confronts similar conditions.

McCartney and Roberts: Building Institutions to Address Miscarriages of Justice in Engla BUILDING INSTITUTIONS TO ADDRESS MISCARRIAGES OF JUSTICE IN ENGLAND AND WALES: ‘MISSION ACCOMPLISHED’? Carole McCartney* & Stephanie Roberts**† ABSTRACT The revelation of miscarriages of justice can lead a criminal justice system to a crisis point, which can be capitalized upon to engineer legal reforms. In England and Wales, these reforms have included the establishment of three bodies: the Court of Criminal Appeal, the Criminal Cases Review Commission, and the Forensic Regulator. With differing remits, these institutions are all intended to address miscarriages of justice. After outlining the genesis of these bodies, we question whether these three institutions are achieving their specific goals. This Article then outlines the benefits accrued from the establishment of these bodies and the controversies that surround their operation.

  • Guildford Pub Bombs: Conlons' Fight Continues After Sister's Death’
    Networked Knowledge Media Reports Networked Knowledge IRA Bombing Cases Homepage This page set up by Dr Robert N Moles [Underlining, where it occurs is for NetK editorial emphasis] On 5 April 2018 Tanya Gupta of the BBC reported ‘Guildford pub bombs: Conlons' fight continues after sister's death’ Ann McKernan told the BBC in 2016 that hundreds of closed files still needed to be made public. The family of Gerry Conlon, one of 11 people wrongly convicted for the 1974 Guildford pub bombings, have vowed to continue their fight for justice following the death of his sister. Ann McKernan, 58, who led the family's campaign, died in Belfast on Monday. A pre-inquest review (PIR) into the Guildford bombings is due to be held this year after the original inquest in the 1970s never concluded. Mrs McKernan's sister Bridie Brennan will now take the lead for the family. Lawyers from KRW Law, who applied for the PIR on behalf of Mrs McKernan and a survivor after the BBC viewed official papers on the case, confirmed they now represent Ms Brennan. 'Inspirational' Mrs McKernan, who died at home surrounded by her four daughters, saw both her brother Gerry and her father Patrick "Guiseppe" Conlon jailed over the bombings which killed five and injured 65. Patrick Conlon was one of the Maguire Seven, convicted on explosives charges, and his son was one of the Guildford Four jailed for murder. All 11 eventually had their convictions quashed, but Gerry Conlon served 15 years in prison and his father died four years into his 12-year prison term.
