...to shove women back to the idealized 1950's (guess what, people were having sex outside of marriage then, too). In short: though I am not the best at reviewing books, I strongly urge all the feminist women on my friendslist to pick it up. Or request it at their local library. I'm posting this as public because I want it to reach as wide an audience as possible, but I am screening comments. - D
... years worth of W-2 forms to interviews, where they are put through a battery of simulated work tasks and surveys. The company describes its process as a bit "rough around the edges." This screening process seems pretty mild, however, compared with some of the other requests job seekers faced--such as supplying 12 references, or giving a business presentation half a dozen times in a day. However ...
The Resurrectionist will be screening as part of the Grand Illusion's Washington Grown film festival. The festival starts September 4th. The Resurrectionist was my last big project before Unhallowed Metropolis . It is a 30 minute horror-western-mystery film with a solid Neo-Victorian (steampunk) aesthetic.
...to vote on changing the "indoor prostitution" loophole, CineMental is thrilled to bring this insightful documentary to the Boston area. Filmmaker Tara Hurely will join us for Q+A following the screening. This should be a rousing discussion of sex worker's rights and privacy as well as informative about her filmmaking process. Happy Endings? is an intriguing exploration of the Asian massage parlor...
... to bind Donald Eugene Comstock over for trial – charged with seven counts of first degree murder, with special circumstances. Yesterday had been a fairly routine day. Several times during the jury screening and selection process, I noticed Comstock seemed at best uninterested and at worst, bored. What Mr. Comstock did not realize was that I managed to secure an almost perfect panel of jurors. ...
...the first three or four pitchers. Boss C's husband had a tad too much and it affected his vision, and thus he attempted to come through the screen door while it was closed, resulting in a tear in the screening, and a jammed wheel at the bottom. Should be easy enough, and cheap enough to repair. Boss C was mortified, I think, and took her sozzled mate home soon after. We bought a bocce set and a ...
...who is in charge of a school here that teaches GMAT and SAT courses to foreigners. ALL OF THESE PEOPLE were rejected and I wasn't. I HAVE NO IDEA what kind of fucked up criteria this screening comittee was using. -The letter I got said they're sending my resume to the "relevant organization" to get their approval of my candidacy, but nothing says this "organization" can't be the Israeli branch ...
... princess. It's pretty amazing. For me, it means even so much more, because I have a nephew who is only 3 years old, and I will be the first princess he sees. Are you hoping for a White House screening of the movie? I'm ready! I mean, you look at those two little girls and they are the most beautiful creatures. You want to run up and hug them. Let's talk about The No. 1 Ladies' Detective ...
... get a phone call to set up an interview for another job I applied for. They did a phone screening to see if they wanted to interview me, and she sounded pretty optimistic. She kept talking in cryptic codes like she wanted to offer me the job right then and there haha. I think that phone screening was longer than the 2 interviews I had for the hospital job combined. Funny! So I have that ...
The day after returning home from London, I tried to see at least one SIFF screening a day, falling off the wagon maybe only once when it turned out that my pass wasn't powerful enough to get me into the evening with Francis Ford Coppola for Tetro . Along the way, I did a horrible thing and "tweeted" capsule reviews of the 35 films that I saw. Now that it's all over, for the sake of posterity in...
