Heidi was my favorite part of the show. There were some very funny parts to the show, especially if you are a theater buff. There are about 10 mins of total blackouts, which is mostly a chunk in within the first 13 minutes. Depsite that, a nice capture and the audience was very into the show.

🇺🇸🇨🇦 Attitudes ‎– Attitudes - 1975/76 Everything David Foster touches really turns it into gold. This album could not be less "Attitudes" was a super group formed by the great Jim Keltner, Danny Kortchmar, Paul Stallworth and Foster himself, who released two excellent albums between 1975 and 1977, perhaps without the deserved success. This album, one of the great Foster's first projects, was the prelude to the great artistic and musical career that one of the great contributors had together with Jay Graydon of the WestCoast sound. Not all the songs on this album are great, but there are some really memorable songs that deserve to be positively valued. https://youtu.be/im2QPteUUD8 Lost Classic! https://www.instagram.com/p/B-1hMT1p8yr/?igshid=dnvoeddh60p4

The Ambiguous Labyrinth: “Night and the City” and Film Noir

When one thinks of Film Noir as a genre, the first thing that comes to mind is a plot driven by a detective's desire to solve a crime committed by sub-characters trapped in situations they have little control over but have exacerbated to a large extent, thus creating a moral ambiguity for the viewer to ponder. 

Another trope within Film Noir is the lighting and camera work; much of it inherited from a vast array of German Expressionist movie-makers, which mostly consists of low and abstract angles utilizing wide-angle lenses, and is often set up to be reflective of the psychological mood and dualistic moral situation of the main character. This is, in part, graphically signified by stark light and dark contrasts on the character's face via such things as Venetian blinds, etc.

--

At first glance, Night and the City fits squarely within these formalistic constructs, yet the figure of Harry constitutes a bit of an anomaly within the genre. Not only is he far from the usual detective characterization, he seems to have more in common with the sub-characters rendered in other examples of Noir. 

In fact, he is the epitome of an anti-hero wrestling with his inner nature (something akin to a struggling artist recklessly searching for his "voice", as his romantic rival posits in the film) and who creates havoc not only for himself, but for his "friends" and loved ones to the point where we as viewers hardly have any sympathy for him in the murderous end. 

Indeed, this type of characterization and outcome has more in common with later "Neo-Noirs", such as Woody Allen's Match Point, where a morally ambiguous character plays with the audience's affection and trust to an uncomfortable breaking point, thus leaving the viewer’s feelings toward the protagonist suspended between relief and outright loathing.

The lighting in Night and the City is also something of a different order altogether. Whereas a "typical" Noir will use stark nocturnal effects of light and dark signifying the "good and bad" morality of a character, here there is hardly such optical reflectivity of psychological states. Instead, we have a situation where the protagonist moves in-and-out of light and dark, night and day without too much metaphorical regard to his situation (for instance, when rummaging around in his girlfriend's apartment looking to steal some cash from her, the girl’s apartment is well lit with hardly a shadow cast).

Perhaps the only solid connection this film has to "typical" descriptions of Noir is in the rendering of the city as a constricted space of moral and physical trauma; its snaking paths through alleyways and nocturnal scenery render it very capable of being a paragon of the genre. 

Yet, upon further reflection, one must take issue with such critics as Paul Arthur who see Night and the City as reflective of an urban labyrinth with "(n)early every setting...crammed with architectural grids, frames, cul-de-sacs, narrow stairways, (and) perspectives (which) choke off the mobility and freedom of (the) human subjects". Though it is true there is a constrictive circularity reflected in the various paths Harry takes though the city (and towards his fate), the geographic spatiality hardly constricts him (and the viewer) in the same way the near-contemporaneous Kiss Me Deadly does, in which the camera rarely looks up from either the ground or immediate architectural space, thus hermetically sealing the main character and audience within the box of the plot. 

Indeed, there are several moments in Night and the City that show a far-off London, and by implication, a way out and into the countryside (this is especially true in the final scene by the Thames River). Though this could be seen as alluding to the futility of Henry ever thinking he can escape, it hardly proposes the strict labyrinthian bondage Arthur finds within the film.

--

In closing, one can certainly see why Night and the City is often considered a classic of the genre (though, early on it was not given the critical due it deserved), with its amoral characters, use of the city, and cinematographic style. But, upon further reflection it seems to sit uncomfortably within the typical descriptions reserved for Noir, and as such illuminates the continuing battle that exists in trying to empirically define this unique and popular genre.

Tory president apologizes for error in deadline to register voters for leadership race

Poor communication about the PC leadership rules has left Tony Wakeham with less time than he expected to sign up supporters. Party president Graydon Pelley issued an apology Friday because the party announced the deadline as Feb. 28 when its actually Jan. 28. Meanwhile, former premier Danny Williams declined to comment on rumours of a “Draft Danny” movement to get him to run for the leadership. NTV’s Michael Connors reports.

Some of the decidedly unglamorous pre-fame jobs held by A-listers

Acting is glamorous? Many started way at the bottom. Hugh Grant: “I cleaned toilets at IBM in London. I was good at it. Nothing I don’t know about cleaning a loo. I can get right down the pipes. I can get crystalline urine out. I might even have been happier in those days. Maybe one day I’ll go back to it.”

Look out, Ed Asner. Could be we have a Loo Grant.

And with Steve Buscemi: “At 18 I was a Valley Stream movie usher who maybe 40 times caught bits of Al Pacino’s ‘Dog Day Afternoon.’ I once saw the whole thing.” (He didn’t know that, at $4 a week, Al cleaned powder rooms. Nicole Kidman’s beginning was similar.) … Some stars went to the dogs. Sandra Bullock an animal beautician. Cyndi Lauper kennel cleaner … Once a grocery store clerk, Michelle Pfeiffer says “I even learned how to take stems off maraschino cherries.”

Willem Dafoe: “As a teen I bound Penthouse and Hustler magazines in a Midwestern factory. Never once looked at those erotic pictures. For me could’ve been National Geographic or Popular Mechanics.” … Gloria Estefan. Customs interpreter at Miami Int’l Airport. She told the Daily Mail: “I once caught a nun trying to smuggle contraband salami.” … Paul Rudd DJ’d bar mitzvahs … Graydon Carter: Railroad lineman … John Malkovich: School bus driver … Ozzy Osbourne worked in a slaughterhouse.

James Brown shined shoes outside Augusta, Georgia’s WRDW — then bought that whole radio station … NYC zoo attendant Sly Stallone quit after a lion’s share of pee reached him … Kelsey Grammer: Denny’s dishwasher … Ashton Kutcher: General Mills factory sweeper … Sinéad O’Connor: Kiss-o-Gram girl in Dublin … Julianna Margulies packed dead people’s belongings.

She struck real gold

It’s true. Before she hit it big in the acting world, Lucy Lawless was a gold miner in Australia’s Outback … Taye Diggs: Made $100 a week as a pizzeria worker. Then, clad in bananas, sang “Day-O” in Tokyo Disneyland’s “Little Mermaid” attraction.

Camryn Manheim: Deaf interpreter in a hospital delivery room … Harrison Ford: Carpenter. Built a studio for composer Sergio Mendes … Wolf Blitzer: “In Buffalo I drove a cab. When they wouldn’t pay I didn’t know what to do” … Warren Beatty, 17, caught mice behind DC’s National Theatre as Helen Hayes played “The Skin of Our Teeth” … David Duchovny: NY lifeguard at age 14. Mortifying at that age to make mature women cover up.

Working actors

Woody Harrelson: “Fired 17 times one year.” … Javier Bardem played rugby, then was a bouncer, writer, construction worker and stripper … Alfre Woodard: Giftwrapper. Then, for helping the homeless, fired as Penney’s perfume spritzer. Also dumped as a receptionist “for saying I could operate a switchboard — and couldn’t.” … Wilfred School of Beauty grad Danny DeVito’s specialty? Beehive hairdos … James Michener? Chestnut salesman… Wilford Brimley: Howard Hughes bodyguard … Popcorn seller Carol Burnett’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star was put at the door of the theater manager who axed her.

Jack Nicholson, cinema usher, ��watched people necking then pointed my flashlight to embarrass the hell out of them.” … Dennis Quaid: “I was job challenged. At Astro World amusement park some kid kicked me. I complained and got laid off. Also dumped as a waiter in LA for dropping sour cream on some society lady’s head. Listen, I’m clumsy.” …

Penn and Teller’s Penn Jillette: “Hospital orderly. Worst was to prevent ‘skin flecks’ and ‘human giblets’ from clogging the drains.” … Brad Pitt dressed as a chicken for El Pollo fast food place at $8 an hour.

Dining at today’s sidewalk outdoor cafes what you can get for dessert is mugged.

For sure, mostly in New York, kids, mostly in New York …

Extratime.ie – Shamrock Rovers v Bohemians

Fri, Aug 30 2019

The final Dublin derby of the season sees Bohemians travel to Tallaght in search of an incredible clean sweep of league wins over bitter rivals Shamrock Rovers.

Irish football’s most famous and most intense encounter rarely passes off without some hint of drama as familiarity does little to dampen the contempt in which they hold on another.

Whether it’s red cards, of which there have been plenty this season, stunning strikes like Danny Mandroiu’s at Dalymount Park or the odd pig’s head thrown at an ex-striker, it’s never boring.

The Gypsies have won all three of the sides’ games this season, including a 1-0 victory in Tallaght in April that saw Shamrock Rovers play most of the game with nine players.

Trevor Clarke and Lee Grace both saw red in the first half as Dinny Corcoran scored at the second attempt after his penalty was saved by Alan Mannus.

The first meeting at Dalymount Park had seen Aaron Greene shown a straight red card, also in the first half, and this time Corcoran scored his penalty.

Rovers managed to keep 11 men on the field last time out at Dalymount, but they conceded two penalties, one of which Mannus saved, before Mandroiu won it with a thunderbolt.

It’s a cliché that form goes out the window in these games, but how else to explain that Bohs have won seven and drawn one of the last eight meetings despite finishing behind their foes each season?

Nevertheless, Rovers are the form team heading into the game with five wins from their last five (two in the FAI Cup and three in the league).

Bohs, by contrast, have squeezed past First Division opposition in Shelbourne and Longford Town in the FAI Cup, either side of a 10-1 hammering of UCD and a 6-1 defeat to Dundalk.

Whatever the outcome, spectators won’t be short of drama and talking points to chew over long into the night.

What time is the match?

Kick-off is 8pm.

Where is the match?

Tallaght Stadium, Dublin.

Who is the referee?

Limerick’s Rob Hennessy is the man in the middle.

Are there tickets available?

Tickets for the home end can be bought at the stadium or online here. The away allocation is sold out.

Where can I watch it?

The game will be shown live in the Republic of Ireland on Eir Sport 1 with coverage beginning at 7.30pm. 

As ever, the Extratime.ie floating heads will be bringing you previews and reports from around the grounds before and after the game.

If you don’t have access to Eir, or you just enjoy the smooth, soulful tones of Oisín Langan, you can listen to Extratime.ie’s radio commentary here or via the player embedded below.

extratimeie is on Mixlr

Can I stream it online?

Eir broadband, landline and TV customers can avail of Eir Sport’s online streaming service here.

Who are they key players to watch?

He’s the man of the moment and his form in the league and Europe has been enough to earn him a place in Mick McCarthy’s Ireland squad for the crucial Euro qualifier against Switzerland next week.

Jack Byrne has been one of the league’s outstanding talents this term but the one thing missing from the playmaker’s Rovers CV is a truly dominant performance against their biggest rivals.

When we talk about outstanding talents in the league, we can’t overlook the impact Danny Mandroiu has had in his few months back in Irish football.

The former St Kevin’s Boys youth has marked himself out as a special talent with deft skill and an eye for the spectacular – not least his matchwinner the last time these sides met in June.

Team news:

Neil Farrugia misses out with injury for Rovers, but Joey O’Brien is fit again and Ronan Finn returns from suspension.

Dinny Corcoran and Cristian Magerusan are long-term absentees for the Gypsies, while Conor Levingston, Keith Ward and Ryan Graydon are all doubtful.

Read Andrew Dempsey’s match preview here.

Betting:

Shamrock Rovers 4/9; Draw 16/5; Bohemians 11/2.

7 Online Butchers That Bring Quality Meat to Your ...

It’s easy to wax poetic about buying meat from a sustainable source when you live close to a local butcher shop that cuts down whole, local animals every day. But what if such a spot isn’t accessible? Or, for that matter, what if you just don’t feel like going to another store after your trip to the market? There’s only so much time in a day, especially when it’d be nice to eat dinner before 10 p.m. Good news: Some of the best meat in the country is available for delivery straight to your door. Here are seven online butchers that we love, with the cuts you should be buying from them.

Kurobuta heritage pigs are grown for flavor, and the breed’s high quantity of fat promises a juicy finish. ($17, approx. 5 oz.)

Photo by Chelsie Craig

Heritage Foods is an online butcher known for heirloom breeds: Think Red Wattle prosciutto or these mildly gamey Dorset Horn chops. ($120 for eight chops, approx. 8 oz. each)

Photo by Chelsie Craig

This deeply marbled beef is a breed of Japanese Wagyu cattle by way of Texas. ($50, approx. 14 oz.)

Photo by Chelsie Craig

California butcher Belcampo provides in-depth info about how its grass-fed animals are raised and processed. ($25, approx.2.3 lb. on Goldbely)

Photo by Chelsie Craig

Cook this tender grass-fed, grain-finished cut from the calf muscle like a flank steak. ($16, approx. 20 oz.)

Fossil Farms: Wild Boar St. Louis Ribs

Boar ribs have a richer, nuttier flavor than regular pork ribs. ($15 per small rack, approx. 1 lb.)

Photo by Chelsie Craig

The fat cap like one on these 1 ½-inch Porterhouse steaks is rare to find at the grocery store. These cattle from Silver Fern Farms are raised in the green pastures of New Zealand, producing a robust, grassy flavor. ($248 for eight 22 oz.-steaks on Marx Foods)

Buy from online butchers, then make these:

76 of Our Best Steak Recipes, from Rib Eye to Skirt Steak, Fajitas to Skewers

Easy Steak with Pan Sauce

This recipe works with all cuts of steak from ribeye to round, but you don’t have to stop at beef. Your pork chops and chicken thighs could use a little buttery pan sauce, too.

Photo by Laura Murray, styling by Judy Mancini

Grilled Beef with Broccoli

You’ll get all the traditional flavors of the classic takeout dish by using a marinade made up of oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, and soy sauce, but the steak and broccoli are grilled for a fresh summertime variation.

Photo by Laura Murray, styling by Judy Mancini

Mezcal-Marinated Fajitas

The mezcal and fish sauce in these fajitas make for a surprisingly good combination. You’ll get a smoky, earthy flavor from the mezcal, while the fish sauce adds a little funk and saltiness. If you prefer, use any kind of chopped up chicken or pork in place of the skirt steak.

Slow-Roasted, Twice-Fried Porterhouse Steak

We wouldn’t tell you to score, season, chill, freeze, fry, slow roast, baste, and refry a steak if it wasn’t worth it. Really: It’s worth it. Learn more here and watch the video here.

Steak au Poivre

When you flambé the cognac for this steak au poivre recipe, make sure your pan is really hot and your eyebrows are out of the way.

Tri-Tip with Chimichurri

The tri-tip is a tender, triangular cut of beef tucked near the sirloin. There are only two per steer, so if your butcher is out, go with sirloin.

Vincent Cross

Grilled Hanger Steak with Fennel Salad

51 Lincoln grills the tomatoes for this salad, but unless you have a screaming-hot grill, this can be tricky. Either way, use beefsteaks, which have an excellent ratio of flesh to seeds.

Francesco Tonelli

Salt-and-Pepper Rib Eye

A bone-in rib eye requires nothing more than salt, pepper, and a hot grill. Though to make it even more sublime, serve with scallions that have been tossed in olive oil and salt and given a quick char. This is part of BA’s Best, a collection of our essential recipes. Watch the step-by-step video here.

Parachute’s Steak-and-Egg Bibimbap

Not ready to commit to a special dolsot bowl? Toast the cooked rice mixture in a generous splash of vegetable oil in a large skillet until a crunchy layer forms, 10–15 minutes, then pile on the ingredients as described.

Christopher Testani

Chicken-Fried Steak

This hot-weather version of a comfort food classic is paired with a fresh, no-cook salsa. Looks like gravy, tastes like summer.

Gentl & Hyers

Bistro Steak with Buttermilk Onion Rings

Here’s how to time this: Have the salad and onion ring components ready before you cook the steak and the sauce, then keep the sauce warm while you fry the onions. Toss the salad at the last moment.

Tony’s Steak

Seasoning the steak overnight preps the steak so that it’s ready to go the next day.

Romulo Yanes

Coffee-Rubbed Rib Eye

For this steak rub recipe, chef Josef Centeno, of Baco Mercat in Los Angeles, was inspired by the coffee rub his father used to make for grilling steaks. Basting with butter before transferring the pan to the oven helps bloom the dried spices and adds irresistible flavor to the meat.

Perfect Porterhouse Steak

With a steak this thick, you need to season liberally; when chef Bobby Flay demonstrated for us, the surface of the meat was virtually white from salt.

Salt-and-Pepper Steak

What’s inexpensive, versatile, and crazy tasty? Skirt steak. It also cooks in a flash, which make it tailor-made for grilling.

Strip Steak with Japanese Dipping Sauce

To give steaks a boost, chef David Myers of Hinoki & the Bird in Los Angeles, makes an herb rub (he likes to dry the herbs himself; if you don’t have a microwave, sub in 1 tsp. of each dried herb) and pairs the meat with a tart ponzu sauce (ponzu is available at Asian markets and some supermarkets).

Steak and Soba Stir Fry

Your next weeknight dinner is this steak stir fry recipe. We like skirt steak because it’s a tasty and affordable cut. Slice it thinly so it’s tender.

Kyle Johnson

Marcus Nilsson

Chi Spacca’s Bistecca Fiorentina

If you don’t enjoy very rare meat, keep these steaks on the grill until they reach 120°; they’ll still be rare, but less aggressively so.

Coffee-Rubbed Steak

This rub works on just about any cut (in fact, it’s served on filet mignon at Mesa Grill), and the pan-to-oven method is foolproof.

Hawaiian Rib-Eye Steak

Now you can make one of Hillstone’s most popular dishes at home, a decision you will never regret.
