Ellen Page?s ?Smart People? Only as Scholarly as Zealous Senior in High Sch
2008-04-11 09:30:00 CHICAGO ? I?m flummoxed. I know ?Smart People? was supposed to be comedic drama with a splash of romance. Instead, I have been misled. It?s not a comedy. It?s not a tragedy. It?s not even a tragicomedy. ?Smart People? is a blandly scripted ?poor me? with an attempt at a plot and some glitzy Hollywood names thrown in for good box-office measure. While I know this was no ?Juno,? I couldn?t help cursing first-time writer Mark Poirier for not taking a much-needed page ? or a full-fledged course of mentoring ? from Oscar-winning ?Juno? inker Diablo Cody. Read Adam Fendelman?s full review of ?Smart People? in our reviews section.View our full ?Smart People? image gallery. ?Smart People? is also a product of another newbie: first-time director Noam Murro. Since her ?Juno? stardom in 2007 ? and actually her big-screen break out even before that in 2005?s ?Hard Candy? ? 21-year-old Ellen Page has righteously warranted her way on Hollywood?s ?A? list. My draw to ?Smart People? was Page an...

The Scholarly Process
2007-07-25 15:10:00 They say that a picture is worth 1000 words, but the question is: are you sure they’re the right words? To illustrate, here is an exchange I had with a friend recently (names have been hidden for no particular reason): friendofkhowaga: Whaddaya make of the inscription here: friendofkhowaga: [ed’s note: the inscription says, “Long live the ‘umma (Islamic ...
Writing A Research Paper, Or Looking For Scholarly Articles? Try Google Sch
2007-05-22 21:57:00 Just a quick note today? There are many reasons to search the Internet for scholarly articles. The problem with actually finding what you are looking for is that a simple search on most search engines will return a bunch of ?junk? results in addition to what you are really looking for. Sorting through all of the ?junk? can be very time consuming. Google Scholar helps solves this problem. By using Google Scholar you can weed out non-academic websites and information while you search. Google Scholar is one of the first things I show my students in our introductory technology classes..[more] This is an excerpt from a great article/post @ MUSicTECHnology.netVISIT MUSTECH.NET TODAY- Don't miss a beat!

Scholarly Afghanistan Blogs
2007-05-17 21:00:00 May 17, 2007. Expert analysis on Afghanistan? From a blog? The answer is “Yes.” There are a few blogs out there that offer a high quality of analysis on Afghanistan and also have some sort of graduate diploma on the wall. And accordingly their analysis reflects a high level of scholarship. Pic: “Have you perused my Afghanistan blog?” These blogs would be Péter Marton’s My State Failure Blog, Bonnie Boyd’s Central Asia Blog, Carl Robichaud’s Afghanistan Watch, Peter from Downunder’s The Strategist, and Civil-Military Relations. I’ve linked to their “Afghanistan” category where applicable. My State Failure Blog, or MStFB, is described as a blog for scholars and students of International Relations and other social science disciplines. The author, Péter Marton, is a PhD student of International Relations at the Corvinus University of Budapest where his dissertation topic is state failure. Péter previously had led re...

Scholarly Read: Mysticism: A Study in Nature and Development
2006-12-07 21:13:02 Mysticism: A Study in Nature and Development of Spiritual Consciousnessby Evelyn Underhill from Christian Classics Ethereal LibraryWe have now no means of knowing, for instance, the amount of true mysticism which may have existed amongst the initiates of the Greek or Egyptian Mysteries; how many advanced but inarticulate contemplatives there were amongst the Alexandrian Neo-platonists, amongst the pre-Christian communities of contemplatives described by Philo , the deeply mystical Alexandrian Jew (20 B.C.-A.D. 40), or the innumerable Gnostic sects which replaced in the early Christian world the Orphic and Dionysiac mystery-cults of Greece and Italy. Much real mystical inspiration there must have been, for we know that from these centres of life came many of the doctrines best loved by later mystics: that the Neoplatonists gave them the concepts of Pure Being and the One, that the New Birth and the Spiritual Marriage were foreshadowed in the Mysteries, that Philo anticipated the the... |
