It's a special first Friday for the artists in the Stutz building. Tonight the "One Peek" exhibition opens in the StutzArtSpace Gallery from 5 to 9PM. This exhibition features a piece from each artist participating in the Raymond James Stutz Artist Open House later this month. This is a great way to scope out which artists you want to visit first. Many of these artists will also have their studios open for our monthly open studios. Hope to see you all there from 12-5.


The Australian government has responded to boat arrivals by launching Operation Sovereign Borders (OSB), an overly simplistic and harsh military response to what is clearly a complex international humanitarian problem. The deployment of battleships and the language of 'war' and 'crime', as used by the government, are both inappropriate and alarming. It falsely promotes a sense of urgency and justifies the need to mobilise billions of dollars' worth of resources in response to what is only a perceived threat, thus allowing the government to respond in a manner that runs roughshod over people's individual rights.
The current agreements with PNG and Nauru do not contribute to equitable burden-sharing in the region – in fact these arrangements are likely to been seen as 'burden shifting' that will undermine efforts to develop stronger cooperative links.
States could partner to develop a regional 'protection-sensitive' migration framework. Such a system could accommodate states' concerns regarding security and border protection but must also consider the 'human dimension' affecting people's decision to move. It is essential that any regional arrangement compliment and strengthen national systems and not become a substitute for state responsibility.
Additional funding from states such as Australia could be earmarked to increase the UNHCR's capacity to register and process refugees; this would help to stabilise refugee communities and assist in preventing onward movement.
Refugees could be issued with temporary documents to avoid being detained under immigration laws, temporary work permits and access to public utilities, including schools and hospitals.
Funding for the provision of vital services such as healthcare, psychosocial support, legal assistance, and education could be increased, allowing civil society to play a role in strengthening refugee protection in host and transit countries. This would help to stabilise populations and reduce the need for refugees to use people smugglers.
States could develop and agree upon measurable criteria which divide responsibility based on their capacity to absorb asylum seekers, offer protection or support other states financially. States must clearly define their respective roles and responsibilities and introduce clear mechanisms for accountability.
Countries with a greater capacity to offer protection and resources, such as Australia, could share knowledge and expertise to help build the capacity of other states to process and integrate refugees into their communities.
Orderly departure programs for people fleeing refugee-producing countries could be established, similar to programs initiated in the 1980s under the Comprehensive Plan of Action (CPA) which was a largely successful regional response to the deaths of thousands of Vietnamese in boats at sea and which facilitated durable solutions for Indochinese refugees.
An example of this model might be a system which provides economic incentives, such as the provision of targeted foreign aid and access to skilled labour, to host and transit countries that agree to integrate some refugees. This could be combined with a renewed commitment from more wealthy and developed countries to share the burden – the resettlement of vulnerable refugees from those countries to wealthier resettlement countries. The result would be a mutually beneficial quid pro quo arrangement where for every skilled and able-bodied refugee locally integrated into a non-signatory state, a more vulnerable refugee is resettled in a country like Australia.

When people of color in the arts outsell their competitors, or walk away with the biggest prizes during award seasons, it's easy to focus on the novelty of it all.
However, in doing so, we ignore countless vital conversations. It's great to watch Shonda Rhimes monopolize everyone's Thursday nights — but how the hell did she get to that position?
Everybody wants more diversity, but there's little focus on the nitty-gritty realities of the journeys for minority leaders in the arts. And more importantly, the effect of society on shaping their ideas about leadership—both in their organizations and communities.
The necessity of this discussion has increased since we entered "Trump's America"—where theatrical expressions already collide with the contentious political atmosphere.
In this vein, and in celebration of our leaders of color series, we caught up again with the cofounders of Theatre in the X — a theatre organization that showcases theatre pieces inspired by the African diaspora for all generations in West Philadelphia, free of charge.
Carlo Campbell, Walter DeShields, and LaNeshe White agreed to speak frankly via email about their ideas of leadership and what it's like to create art amidst the current sociopolitical atmosphere.

Q: Div always centered - even when scrolling page left and right I have a simple HTML page with CSS code.
When I resize the window (from bigger to smaller) and scroll the page left and right, the text "This is working OK" stays on its position. It is fixed and works fine.
But the text "This is not working OK" will not be centered, if I scroll the page left and right. That's the main problem. This div should always, even after scrolling the page left and right, be horizontally centered and on the bottom of the page - not on the bottom of the screen.

  This is working OK

  Here is text which is so long that a horizontal scrollbar will be needed for the browser window

Biopharmaceuticals Oncology FDA
News Release - December 20, 2013
Cellceutix Files Orphan Drug Designation Application for Brilacidin for Oral Mucositis with US FDA
BEVERLY, MA--(Healthcare Sales & Marketing Network) - Cellceutix Corporation (OTCQB: CTIX) (the "Company"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative therapies in oncology, dermatology, and antibiotic applications, announces today that it has filed an application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requesting Orphan Drug designation for its novel antibiotic Brilacidin™-OM as a drug candidate for the prevention of radiation or chemotherapy-induced Oral Mucositis in head and neck cancer.
Brilacidin-OM is a defensin mimetic that has antibacterial, anti-biofilm and anti-inflammatory properties. Currently, the Company is planning a Phase II trial of Brilacidin-OM to meet an area of great unmet medical need for cancer patients that suffer from the condition which is a common, and often debilitating, side effect of chemotherapy and radiology therapy. Preclinical research presented at the 2012 American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting showed that Brilacidin reduced the occurrence of sever ulcerative Oral Mucositis in animal models by more than 94 percent compared to placebo.
Orphan drug designation is intended to facilitate drug development for drugs that target conditions affecting fewer than 200,000 patients in the United States each year, while providing a significant therapeutic advantage over existing therapies. The designation carries several benefits, including fee reductions, assistance in study design from the Food and Drug Administration, potential for expedited drug development, eligibility for drug grants, tax incentives and extended market exclusivity.
About Cellceutix:
Headquartered in Beverly, Massachusetts, Cellceutix is a publicly traded company under the symbol "CTIX". Cellceutix is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative therapies in oncology, dermatology and antibiotic applications. Cellceutix believes it has a world class portfolio of compounds and is now engaged in advancing its compounds and seeking strategic partnerships. Cellceutix's anti-cancer drug Kevetrin is currently in a Phase 1 clinical trial at Harvard Cancer Centers' Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. In the laboratory Kevetrin has shown to induce activation of p53, often referred to as the "Guardian Angel Gene" due to its crucial role in controlling cell mutations. Cellceutix is planning a Phase 2 clinical trial with its novel compound Brilacidin-OM for the prevention and treatment of Oral Mucositis. Brilacidin-OM, a defensin mimetic compound has shown in the laboratory to reduce the occurrence of severe ulcerative Oral Mucositis by more than 94% compared to placebo. Cellceutix's anti-psoriasis drug Prurisol is being readied for clinical trials at sites in the U.S. and Europe. Prurisol is a small molecule that acts through immune modulation and PRINS reduction. Cellceutix's key antibiotic, Brilacidin, is set to begin a Phase 2b trial in January 2014 for Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections, or ABSSSI. Brilacidin has the potential to be a single-dose therapy for multi-drug resistant bacteria or a dosing regimen that is shorter than currently marketed antibiotics. Cellceutix has formed research collaborations with world renowned research institutions in the United States and Europe, including MD Anderson Cancer Center, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and the University of Bologna. More information is available on the Cellceutix web site at www.cellceutix.com

Q: I thought FlashDevelop was free? Why in the world is it trying to open Adobe Flash Professional when building or running the project?
So I am trying to build my Flash project

I am given this, I don't have a license to Adobe Flash Professional anymore, so I can't use this software.

What can I do?

A: FlashDevelop is NOT a full "alternative" to Adobe Flash Professional nor Flash Builder.
It is an IDE oriented to supporting the AS3 language and also Haxe, HTML, XML, Javascript... But as far as I've used it, it doesn't have facilities to manage a timeline or library in a FLA file.
For AS3 development, FlashDevelop is great and way better than Flash Professional. It's more like Flash Builder in that sense (although Flash Builder is more oriented to Flex/AIR and has facilities for creating UIs). I used earlier versions to edit/refactor the AS3 code associated to an FLA in order to build SWFs for Flash Player, and in this way it relies on Flash Professional to create the final output.
However, FlashDevelop also uses the freely available Flex and AIR SDKs to build applications, and you can go a long way if you're willing to handle the images/audio/video resources yourself in AS3 code. Select the appropriate option when creating a new project, it will create simple skeleton applications for you and they should build with the Flex and AIR SDKs it downloads during installation.

Work from home! Even though this sounds to some like almost impossible, yet I have achieved it.. and i am making it my mission to help others … just like me .. who have the desire to work from home and ear a decent income while taking care of their family.
Why am i saying that ?
Because it requires a lot of discipline, focus, determination and mostly ability to not socialize during your work time. This means you are sitting at home, and not interacting with many people around you.
Some people will find that not fun and depressing… But what deter others is a blessing to some. In my world of working from home, i get to take care of my kids, have no corporate rules, have no boss and mostly manage my own time and career.
I don't have to be a victim of a corporate world where they are dictating to me my worth!
If you are like me, have the same ambition to work from home, or even travel the world while working from home, work from anywhere and dress how you wish, then please join my blog and send us your success story if you have one, and if you don't … don't worry about it.. this blog is here to help people like you and provide insight and views of others doing just the same like me and how they made it !
So thank you for joining this blog and i look forward to your comments and stories!
Lets make it together a better world and enjoy our short lives on it. read my blog here.


This gentle straightening system utilises a tooth coloured band to gently straighten and align your teeth. It is kind to your mouth and doesn't stand out like the more traditional ugly metal braces.
Most people wear these types of braces for about six months. The shortest we have been able to straighten someone's teeth is four months and longest has taken nine months.
What is the difference between invisible braces and traditional braces?
You can see by looking at these pictures that invisible braces are hard to see, particularly if you don't know the person has them. Many of our patients say that their friends and family didn't notice they were wearing braces straight away.
Do invisible braces really work for adults?
Most people think that braces are mainly for kids and take two to four years. Not anymore! Dr Harris can straighten your teeth in an average time of six months. 'Invisible Braces' is an easy and affordable way to greatly improve your smile, leaving the embarrassment of crooked and spaced teeth in the past.
By using a series of clear, removable aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth with results you'll notice sooner than you think. The course of treatment involves changing aligners approximately every two weeks, moving your teeth into straighter position step by step, until you have a more beautiful smile.
An average Invisalign course of treatment takes about a year. You'll see Dr Harris every six to eight weeks for adjustments and to check progress. At regular intervals, you'll receive a new set of custom-molded clear aligners to continue the straightening process.
What does Invisalign look and feel like?
Since Invisalign is practically invisible, there's no unwarranted attention to your mouth. In fact, very few people will notice at all. They're comfortable to wear and remove easily when you eat, brush, and floss.


If you're looking for a responsible and cost-efficient way to finance big-ticket expenses like home improvements or unexpected medical bills, a home equity loan or personal loan could be the solution.
What are the differences between a personal loan and home equity loan?
What interest rate can you qualify for?
Learn how to quickly and easily evaluate your own situation with these factors in mind, and choose what's best for you when deciding on a personal loan vs. home equity loan.
Here are a couple of the major differences between personal loans and home equity loans.
The main difference between a personal loan and a home equity loan is that most personal loans are unsecured loans. With a home equity loan, you're putting your house up as collateral as a guarantee that you'll repay the money you owe — that's a secured loan.
What does it mean to put your house up as collateral? As long as the loan is outstanding, the lender has a lien attached to your property. That means you'll have a hard time selling your home unless the lender gets paid off in the process. If you start missing payments, the lender might even initiate foreclosure proceedings against you to force you to repay.
Although personal loans are unsecured loans, that doesn't mean there aren't consequences if you fail to repay it. If you default on your unsecured personal loan, the lender can hand you off to a collection agency or seek a court judgment against you. As a last resort, you might get some relief by declaring bankruptcy.
You might think that because you're putting your house up as collateral, you'll be able to borrow more if you choose a home equity loan.
That's not necessarily the case — it depends on how much tappable equity you have in your home. The equity you have in your home is the difference between what your house is worth, and how much you still owe on your mortgage. Tappable equity is the amount of money a lender will let you withdraw.
Most lenders won't allow you to tap every last dollar of your home equity. Typically, your combined loan-to-value (CLTV) ratio can't exceed 75% to 90%. To find the maximum loan amount you could borrow against your home, you'd multiply your home value by the lender's CLTV limit.
If your home's market value is $300,000 and your lender's CLTV is 80%, you could qualify to borrow up to $240,000 against your home.
So in this example, you would have $240,000 in tappable equity if you didn't have a mortgage and owned your house outright. If you had an existing mortgage of, say $200,000, you'd have $40,000 in tappable equity.
There are several ways you can tap your home's equity: through a second mortgage, lines of credit — like a home equity line of credit (HELOC), or a cash-out mortgage refinance. Your CLTV will come into play with each.
Although many lenders will provide personal loans of up to $35,000, others have even higher limits, up to $50,000, $100,000, or more.
The personal loan companies in the table below compete for your business through Credible. You can request personal loan rates from all of these partner lenders by filling out just one form (instead of one form for each) and without affecting your credit score.
For many borrowers, the upper limit for a personal loan will hinge on DTI. A DTI of 36% is considered healthy by mortgage lenders and most won't go higher than 45% or 50%.
Let's say your monthly income is $6,000 a month, and $2,500 is already going toward your mortgage, car payment, and other recurring expenses. You could take on another $500 in monthly obligations before your DTI hit 50%.
To determine which loan is the right choice for your financial situation, it's helpful to nail down the answers to a few basic questions. You probably already know the answers to most of these questions, too. Here's how to use that information.
You might be able to borrow a large amount of money using either a home equity loan or a personal loan. But if you're planning to take out a large loan, you'll also want to consider which type of loan provides the most favorable repayment terms.
Personal loans tend to have larger monthly payments than home equity loans of equal balances because they have a shorter loan term — 3 to 7 years, rather than five to 30 years for second mortgages.
If you wanted to take out a $50,000 personal loan at 9% interest and pay it back over 5 years, your monthly payment would be about $1,040. On a home equity loan at the same interest rate but with payments spread out over 10 years, the monthly payments would be closer to $595.
So if you need to borrow a large lump sum of money, a home equity loan might be a better solution if you're "house rich" but "cash poor." Just remember that spreading out payments over a longer period of time can increase your total cost since you'll pay more in interest over the life of your loan.
On the other hand, even if you don't have much equity in your home, you might be able to take out a sizeable personal loan if your mortgage payments and other bills aren't a strain on your finances.
Whether a home equity or personal loan makes more sense can also depend on what you intend to do with the money.
If you need a loan to make home improvements, a home equity loan can have an important advantage over a personal loan. The interest payments on a cash-out refinance or home equity loan are tax deductible, as long as you use the loan to make "substantial improvements" to your home. For loans made after Dec. 15, 2017, the mortgage interest deduction can only be claimed for the first $750,000 you borrow.
If you're not making improvements to your home, or if you're only borrowing a relatively small amount, a personal loan can sometimes be a better choice. Some HELOCs have a minimum initial draw, such as $10,000. If you're borrowing to take a trip or pay off an unexpected medical bill, you might be reluctant to put your home up as collateral for a loan.
If you need money right away, it's hard to beat a personal loan. Some online lenders can review, approve and fund a loan within 24 hours. Although it might take several days to get a larger, more complex personal loan, the process will almost always be faster than a home equity loan.
Home equity loans can take weeks to close, particularly if there are requests for additional documentation such as an appraisal. On the other hand, rates on some types of home equity loans can be better than personal loans, making the longer wait worthwhile.
If you have good or excellent credit, using your house as collateral might get you a significantly lower interest rate on a home equity loan than you'd qualify for with a personal loan. But your interest rate can depend on the type of loan you're seeking as well as the repayment term. The shorter the repayment term, the lower the interest rate offered by most lenders.
Home equity loans: Interest rates on traditional home equity loans can be a couple of percentage points higher than what you're probably used to seeing advertised for purchase mortgages or mortgage refinancing. That's because a second mortgage is riskier for the lender.
Personal loans: For borrowers with a good credit report, rates on personal loans can be surprisingly competitive — particularly if you're able to take out a loan with a shorter repayment term.
If you qualify for low rates, both personal loans and home equity loans can be an affordable source of funding for paying off high-interest credit card debt. You can use Credible to request actual rates from multiple lenders offering personal loans and cash-out mortgage refinancing.

Lúčka je obec na Slovensku v okrese Rožňava. V obci žije  obyvatel.

Polohopis
Nachází se 19 km od Rožňavy v údolí potoka Čremošná.

Vodní plochy
Na planině leží Krasové jezero. Toto jezero se tam rozprostíralo ještě i po druhé světové válce, pak se však následkem výbuchu granátů voda začala postupně ztrácet.

Dějiny
Některé prameny datují vznik obce do arpádovské doby a na základě písemných pramenů z roku 1406 ji zařazují do Turňanskeho panství.

Kultura a zajímavosti

Památky
 Husitský kostel, zřícenina středověkého kostela Narození Panny Marie, jednolodní raně gotická stavba s pravoúhlým ukončením presbytáře, bez věže, z druhé poloviny 13. století. Nachází se na vyvýšenině nad obcí. Na západní straně měl představenou předsíň a sakristii na severní straně. Dnešní pojmenování vyplývá z faktu, že byl obsazen zbytky vojska Bratříků Jana Jiskry z Brandýsa, mezi nimiž bylo mnoho bývalých husitských bojovníků. Bratříci kostel opevnili stavbou kamenné zdi a dostavbou věže. Během první světové války kostelík vyhořel. V roce 1926 si věřící postavili v obci nový kostel. Starý kostel byl postupně rozebírán a osudovým mu bylo poškození během druhé světové války. Od roku 1978 probíhal v této lokalitě archeologický výzkum a následovala konzervace zdí. Fragmenty freskové výmalby však zanikly. Strážní věž u kostela byla rekonstruována a nově zastřešena. Dnes se areál bývalého kostela využívá na kulturní účely.
 Římskokatolický kostel sv. Jana, jednoduchá jednolodní stavba s polygonálním ukončením presbytáře a představenou věží z roku 1926. Kostel má hladké fasády členěné půlkruhově ukončenými okny se šambránami. Věž má obrubovou helmici.
 Reformovaný kostel, jednoduchá jednolodní stavba s pravoúhlým závěrem a představenou věží z roku 1926. Stavba zachovává tradici gemerských klasicistních sakrálních staveb. Kostel má hladké fasády, věž je ukončena trojúhelníkovými štíty a jehlancovou helmicí.

David Foster Scholarship
Oxford undergrads Jack Chesney and Charley Wykeham have found themselves helplessly in love with Kitty Verdun and Miss Amy Spettigue. However, it isn't proper for young men to meet their loves without a chaperone, so they invite the ladies to meet Charley's wealthy aunt from Brazil, "where the nuts come from". Cancelling her visit at the last minute, the millionaire aunt sends the boys into cataclysmic confusion. What do they do now? The problem is solved by drafting their feckless friend, Fancourt Babberly, into a black satin skirt, bloomers, and wig. As "Charley's Aunt", this charming frump is introduced to the ladies, to Jack's father, and to Stephen Spettigue, Amy's guardian. When the real aunt turns up, classic comic confusion ensues!
Performances are Thursday, Friday, & Saturday at 7:30pm with Sunday Matinees at 2pm.
Tickets are $22 for adults, and $11 for students (fees included). February 13 is Half Price Preview Thursday.

The Tred Avon Players, Inc. (TAP) is a non-profit Maryland corporation, organized in 1982 to present plays and musicals at the Oxford Community Center, in Oxford Maryland. Since the first sold-out melodramas in August of that year, TAP has grown in community stature and artistic merit to present a mix of plays and musicals each year in one of the most beautiful towns on the Eastern Shore, for a growing, enthusiastic audience.
Our Mission is Simple
To motivate and train local volunteers in the theatrical arts and to present the best possible production of a wide variety of enjoyable shows. Although a number of our stage volunteers have professional experience, each one is an amateur - a lover of the stage!
Oxford Community Center – Home of the Tred Avon Players since 1982
In 1982 the Oxford School was slated for the wrecking ball. A group of local citizens decided that it might be salvageable as a community center. Among various justifications for the cause was the thought (put forward by the local Postmaster, Bill Tull) that the center would be a "good place to put on amateur shows and such." The first melodramas used refrigerator crates for flats and tin cans for lighting instruments but the whole idea worked.
TAP is supported in part by grants from

We've all heard about the sea changers – the growing number of Melburnians packing up their homes and heading to a new life in the coast or country.
Singles, couples and families are leaving in droves – trading in the city's caffeine infused impersonal lifestyle for something more inspiring.
But while the sea-changers pack up their four-wheel-drives in search of a new home outside of the metropolitan area, they are passing a growing number of city shifters – those from provincial Victoria that are also looking for a change of scenery, and are setting up tent right in the heart of the city.

A Very Huppert-y Isabelle Huppert and the Power of Cinema at Cannes' 70th Anniversary
By Jada Yuan
Isabelle Huppert. Photo: VALERY HACHE/AFP/Getty Images
This will never happen, but can we please start the "Isabelle Huppert for Oscar Host 2018" campaign right now? The French acting legend may have been robbed by the Academy this year, but she still seems to be riding high on all that awards-season momentum at the Cannes Film Festival, where she's won two Best Actress prizes, once served as the jury president, and tonight absolutely killed it as co-host of the festival's 70th-anniversary soirée (with festival director Thierry Frémaux). She's closer to being royalty here than any actual minor princes who may have their yachts docked nearby.
How great was La Huppert tonight? Well, she seemed genuinely touched when the entire Palais rose to their feet for several minutes of thunderous applause the moment she stepped onstage. Then she kicked the night off right by singing a half-French, half-English rendition of "Happy Birthday" to Cannes, with a strong, clear voice that must just bring the house down at karaoke. (Huppert doesn't do anything by halves; wanna bet her karaoke song is Heart's "Crazy on You"?)

Both hosts spoke exclusively in French, and this writer does not — but it was immediately clear, even through the imperfect subtitles flashing above the stage, that Huppert was hilarious, and quite possibly giving her many extended speeches without a teleprompter. (Take, as evidence, that a very charming Guillermo del Toro had to ask the organizers to turn on a teleprompter for him because he kept forgetting what to say.) When Huppert mentioned 1974's Palme d'Or winner, Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation, she pleaded, "American directors, please start casting Gene Hackman again, even if it's only on Netflix!" — a full-shade reference to the streaming service, which has been getting dumped upon and booed all festival for refusing to release their films in French theaters.
Then she, brilliantly, turned that shade on the festival itself, declaring, "70 years of Cannes, 76 Palmes d'Or, only one of which has gone to a woman … No comment." After saying those last two words in loud English, she just stood there and smirked as the audience applauded and Frémaux called for the camera to pan over to Jane Campion, said only female Palme d'Or winner, whom the festival has been trotting out as a symbol of its feminism since 1993. Well, technically. Three women have won the Palme, if you count the Blue Is the Warmest Color actresses Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa Seydoux, who shared the prize with their male director in 2013 — though they're not quite viewed as equal Palmes to Campion's. That puts Cannes at 70 just slightly ahead of the Oscars, which still has only had one woman director win in 86 years.
This was, of course, immediately followed by a montage of all the beautiful actresses who've come to Cannes — Bardot! Vanessa Paradis! Kristen Scott Thomas announcing "as you know, I am eternal" — just further illustrating Huppert's point about how the festival tends to embrace women as screen presences and glamorous figures on the red carpet but very rarely as visionaries and réalisateurs.
I'd also like to put in a request that whoever edited these Cannes montages also get hired by the Oscars. Every single one of them felt taut and necessary to tell the history of the festival — warts, yelling, vanity and all. (Although the montage of children in cinema that came at the end definitely felt like one montage too many.) The montage on prizes at Cannes featured a great clip of Roberto Benigni twirling Martin Scorsese around the stage, and 2015's winner Jacques Audiard thanking two-time Palme winner Michael Haneke for not making a movie that year. A montage on scandals at Cannes — which Huppert introduced by pointing out that lots of movies that get booed in the moment at Cannes have gone on to be taught in film schools — featured everything you wanted it to, including the infamous four-minute Vincent Gallo–Chlöe Sevigny blow job scene from The Brown Bunny; Quentin Tarantino flipping the bird to people who booed him when he won the Palme for Pulp Fiction; and that great moment when director Maurice Pialat, getting booed while winning the 1987 Palme for Under the Sun of Satan, shouted out, "If you do not like me, I can say that I do not like you either!"
Best of all were the montages featuring a moment from every winning film of Cannes. Each time a seminal film of my life showed up onscreen, which was often, unexpected waves of emotion crashed over me. When 1959's Orfeu Negro (Black Orpheus) was followed by 1960's La Dolce Vita and 1961's Viridiana from Luis Buñuel, I felt overwhelmed by what it must have been like to live in that incredible era. Soon the music of Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) and M.A.S.H. (1970) had me crying, and vowing to put myself through a boot camp of watching every film I'd missed on that list.
Throughout the night only a few people managed to steal the spotlight, ever so briefly, from Huppert, including Youth director Paolo Sorrentino, a jury member this year, who told a great story about how the first time he came to Cannes, he walked into his hotel to see "a topless girl having a conversation with two guys in the door of her room, and I was happy." He also met a huge producer who got him to agree to make a movie about cows, which fortunately for him (but maybe not for us) never came to be.
Guillermo del Toro gave the only semi-political speech of the night — which was surprising, given what happened in Manchester last night. Introducing a montage about movie monsters, he urged us to be wary of the boring monsters we live among today, "smiling and lying in beautifully tailored suits." He went on, "Today, in the post-truth era we live in, we need to talk about monsters. Forgive our sins and imperfections and rebel against those who claim it is 'the other' that we should be afraid of. Against those who tell us that there is 'us' and 'them,' who we must reject, and who demonize anything that stands out from the norm."
French pop star Vianney closed out the evening with a bizarre acoustic reinterpretation of the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, among others. But it was Huppert who'd left the biggest impression. As Frémaux invited every famous person from Cannes history who'd been invited to join him onstage (Agnès Varda! Uma Thurman! Nicolas Winding Refn! Gael García Bernal!) and launched into a reprise of "Happy Birthday," I found myself wishing it had been Huppert singing again, and that she would sing everything and host everything in the world from now on. Well, internet, time to get to work! Oh, and if you could make that Huppert–Barry Jenkins dream collaboration happen, too, that would be fantastique.

Review: A Romp in Americana
Audiences always enjoy something they can relate to, whether it's a story that hits home or a character that they're familiar with. And nothing is more relatable than pop culture. But finding the appropriate opportunity to place pop culture icons into an already established story is the challenge. With perhaps just the names that truly represent the adaptation, Less Than Rent's Little Mac, Little Mac, You're the Very Man transports Macheath and Co. from The Begger's Opera and Threepenny Opera fame to the Wild Wild West. Oh, and along the way he encounters upwards of 85 colorful characters from the American pop culture canon.
Cowrriten by Sean Patrick Monahan and James Presson, Little Mac lives in a world of complete incohesiveness. Placing the British outlaw in a world of Wild Wild West outlaws was a smart and sensible choice. But with the other added layers, the sensibility was completely lost and unfortunately, at times, made no sense. Imagine a parallel universe where time and space are merely nonexistent or imagine a colorful cast of characters exiting a time machine to Little Mac Land. While the notoriety struck a chord with the audience, the specificity of who appeared were, at times, arbitrary. Little Mac seemed more like a series of sketches within a theme than a play that considered any dramaturgical background. Presson and Monahan's script knew what it wanted to do. However the world of the play didn't properly lend to it. The overall theme of money hungry America and the influence of capitalism wanted to be explored without the distraction of the characters. How can characters like Henry Ford, Michelle Kwan, Bill Gates, Jessica Rabbit, Ronald Reagan, Ethel Rosenberg, Michael Jordan, and a subway car all can coexist in the Wild West?
While resemblance of pop icons are present, they don't seem to land. If you're going to include these names, full commitment is necessary to prove the point. When you do impressions of famous people, we should see and hear them and not rely on a catchphrase and repeating their name to figure out who they are. With that being said, there's no doubt the ensemble knew how to bring the funny. Though with an audience of friends, the laughs came more frequently than they were earned. There were strong performances within the company including Sarah Daniels as Taylor Swift, Alex Kramer in a creepy Ronald Reagan mask, and Matthew George, making the most of his bit parts.
Director Charlie Polinger and lighting designer Alex Freer established a nice dialogue bouncing from story to Taylor Swift narration. The Americana influence of the set and the simplicity of the one-dimensional pieces allowed for seamless transitions, though the ensemble did have some difficulty maneuvering them.
Little Mac, Little Mac, You're the Very Man is a big and ambitious undertaking. It desired more time, perhaps a workshop or two, before taking on the big stage.
